More children, more blessings, starting from marrying a wife to fight for world hegemony

Chapter 179 Could it be that this guy has a physical problem?

After Lu Chen tidied up Wang Qingci, he threw her on another chair, and then continued to write the reform plan for Beijun.

At this time, Wang Qingci was paralyzed on the chair, staring at Lu Chen who was working hard, and couldn't help admiring him in his heart.

Wang Qingci said quietly: "My lord, why are you so energetic? After doing bad things to my slaves, you can immediately calm down and do other things."

Hearing Wang Qingci's words, Lu Chen laughed while writing, and then said: "It's just taking care of a female slave, how much energy can be consumed by this king."

If ordinary people heard Lu Chen's words, they might be sad, but Wang Qingci didn't feel it at all, after all, she was Lu Chen's slave girl.

However, Wang Qingci was a little unconvinced and said: "My lord is a master, and he speaks hard. When will my family break through to the realm of a master..."

Hearing this, Lu Chen stopped the pen in his hand, looked up at Wang Qingci who was on the chair and asked, "What will you do when you break through to the Grandmaster realm?"

"Don't you still want to rebel?"

Having said that, Lu Chen showed a kind smile.

Wang Qingci curled his lips, and then said: "When the slave family breaks through to the realm of the master, the slave family will definitely serve the prince better."

Wang Qingci also had some doubts in her heart. Although she broke through to the realm of a master, her strength and physical fitness would also be greatly improved. It is not impossible for her to have a few tricks with Lu Chen at that time.

But this guy Lu Chen can't use common sense to judge, maybe he has more powerful moves that he hasn't used before, and maybe he will be suppressed soon again.

Maybe by the time he breaks through to the realm of a master, Lu Chen will already be a great master.

The strength of a grand master and a grand master is vastly different.

Lu Chen is already so fierce and powerful now, when Lu Chen breaks through to the realm of a great master, he doesn't know how powerful it will be.

As soon as Lu Chen broke through to the realm of a great master and his physical fitness would be greatly improved, Wang Qingci's delicate body couldn't help but tremble.

Fortunately, Lu Chen has so many women. Although she is Lu Chen's slave, she has her own affairs, so she doesn't have to stay in the palace to serve Lu Chen every day.

It seems that it is impossible to provoke Lu Chen from now on.

At this moment, the voice of a guard in brocade came from outside the study, "My lord, a letter from Tianguang City."

After hearing this, Lu Chen said lightly: "Xiaohuan, bring it in."

There was a big battle in this study, and Jin Yiwei soldiers were not allowed to enter.

The maid at the door of the study immediately came to Jin Yiwei, took the information from Jin Yiwei, and took it into the study.

Lu Chen took the bamboo tube from the maid, took out the information from it, and looked at it seriously.

Seeing what was written on the information, Lu Chen smiled again.

At the beginning, he asked the soldiers of Tianguang City to dress the barbarian captives who died in the battle in Daxia clothes, mainly just in case. At first, he didn't think that Lin Xiuming would go to dig graves if he had nothing to do.

It turned out that spies in the imperial army actually ran to dig the graves to confirm whether there were bodies of soldiers from Beijun buried in those graves.

It seems that the black cavalry will not be able to show up in Beijun for a while, and the corpse can only be concealed for a while. At that time, other people will come to Yancheng to inquire about the situation of the black cavalry.

If the black cavalry were still running around at this time, others would notice that the heavy cavalry in Beijun hadn't been destroyed.

Beijun is about to carry out reforms soon, and it must be low-key and low-key for a while, so as not to attract the attention of the court.

As for whether the reform of Beijun will attract the attention of the court, Lu Chen believes that those people in the court should not have the leisure to pay attention to a vassal king messing around in his fiefdom.

Then Lu Chen put down the information in his hand and continued to write the reform policy of Beijun.

For the next few days, Lu Chen basically spent in the study. He didn't ride a horse and practice guns for a few days, and the women in the inner courtyard of the palace noticed Lu Chen's abnormality.

They also felt that something big was going to happen in Beijun, otherwise Lu Chen would not be able to stay in the study for several days in a row.

About seven days later, the Northern Prince's Mansion directly issued a royal decree, asking officials from Beijun to come to the Palace to discuss government affairs.

After receiving the royal order from the Northern Prince's Mansion, the officials in Beijun were a little confused. Generally speaking, some low-ranking officials are not qualified to participate in the discussion of government affairs.

What is this for?
Could it be that Bei Wang wants to cleanse the officials of Beijun?
As soon as the Wang Ling came out, some corrupt officials suddenly became extremely guilty and panicked.

Some officials were even frightened and fled from Beijun directly, but those officials who escaped were quickly captured by Lu Chen's Jin Yiwei.

In fact, Lu Chen didn't intend to take action against corrupt officials. Now Beijun lacks civil servants and management talents. If he takes action against corrupt officials at this time, he will not have many people to work on.

But for those who are more greedy, he still intends to catch a few out to make an example to others, and those who are scared to run away are basically those who are more corrupt.

early morning.

Lu Chen had just woken up, washed his porridge, and finished his porridge when the maid came to tell him that Li Rui and other Yancheng officials had come to the door of the study to wait for him.

After hearing what the maid said, Lu Chen immediately went to the study.

Seeing a group of people standing at the door of the study, Lu Chen said with a smile: "Lord Li, isn't there still a few days before the time for the king to discuss politics? Why are you here today?"

Seeing Lu Chen coming, Li Rui and a group of Yancheng officials immediately saluted, "See the prince, the prince is a thousand years old!"

After Li Rui finished his salute, he said, "My lord, I heard that your Jin Yiwei is arresting officials from Beijun. Now the people in Beijun are in panic. Many officials have submitted their resignations to me and plan to return home."

The officials in Beijun were basically not from Beijun. Before Emperor Xia granted Beijun to Lu Chen, all the officials in Beijun were dispatched from other places by the court.

Now everyone heard that Lu Chen was going to clean up the officialdom, and some officials were so frightened that they ran away.

According to the rules, after the vassal king arrived in the fief, the officials arranged by the court before were eligible to submit their resignations, and those officials could leave the vassal king's fief directly without the consent of the vassal king.

This is the pit dug by the previous Emperor Xia for those vassal kings. If a vassal king arrives in his own territory and does not arrange for his own people, the officials arranged by the court can not only monitor the vassal king, but also evade the vassal king.

Moreover, the imperial court was able to use these officials to beat some disobedient princes.

Under normal circumstances, if all the officials of a fief run away, the fief will soon fall into chaos. There used to be a feudal king who was disobedient, and then the court directly transferred all the officials away, making the feudal No one is available in the king's fief.

Although the officials of the imperial court were transferred away, it seemed that the vassal king had gained power, and the power of the fiefdom had been transferred to the vassal king, but most of the feudal kings did not have their own team at the beginning.

For example, a prince like Lu Chen who only knew how to eat, drink and play at the beginning, when Lu Chen first came to Beijun, he didn't have his own administrative team. If the court transfers all the officials from Beijun at this time, Lu Chen can only stare. The North County that he took over was a complete mess. With the few people he had at the beginning, there was no way to make the entire North County run.

After hearing Li Rui's words, Lu Chen said with a smile: "No wonder you came to the palace early in the morning, so it was for this matter."

"You don't have to worry about this, the king asked Jin Yiwei to arrest corrupt officials."

Hearing what Lu Chen said, Li Rui and the other officials panicked even more.

Corrupt officials?

In the officialdom, several of the officials present were clean, and even Li Rui himself had received money from others.

If Lu Chen really cleaned up all the corrupt officials, there might not be many officials in the entire North County who would be spared.

According to the rules of the Great Xia court, the poorer the place, the less populated the place, the less the salary of the officials.

Beijun is a poor place. After the imperial court sent officials like them to this place, they were given the least salary every year.

So the first thing most officials have to do when they come to Beijun is to find a way to make money. With such a small salary, if they don't take bribes, how can their life be easy.

Aren't these people becoming officials just for status and money? Now that Lu Chen actually wants to crack down on corrupt officials, he is going to bring them all together.

When Lu Chen came to Beijun, they were worried, but seeing Lu Chen eating, drinking and having fun in the palace every day, they thought Lu Chen would be easy to deal with.

In the end, he didn't expect that Lu Chen's knife had been hidden all along, and it was only revealed now.

Li Rui quickly said: "My lord, Beijun is poor. According to the regulations of the imperial court, the salaries of officials in Beijun are less than half of those in Jiangnan and other places. Or at least received something."

"If the prince wants to arrest all the corrupt officials, I am afraid that none of the officials in Beijun will be spared. Please think again, the prince!"

As soon as Li Rui finished speaking, the officials behind Li Rui also bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, please think twice."

Although many officials thought that the black cavalry had really been wiped out, Lu Chen still had a Jinyiwei in his hand.

If you want to arrest all the officials in Beijun, you don't need Lu Chen's black cavalry at all, those Jin Yiwei can arrest them all.

Now there is no official in Beijun who is not afraid of Lu Chen.

Li Rui continued: "Your Majesty, the officials in Beijun are all officials dispatched by the imperial court. If you crack down on corrupt officials, some officials will be frightened and may flee Beijun without even resigning. It may not be able to reach the lower-level people."

"I also ask the prince to give those officials a chance, so that they have time to reform themselves."

Hearing Li Rui's words, Lu Chen said expressionlessly: "Master Li, are you threatening me?"

Hearing the tone was wrong, Li Rui broke out in sweat immediately, and he said quickly: "I don't dare, I just discuss the matter."

"Beijun is poor, and talented people are unwilling to come to Beijun. If even the officials dispatched by the court run away, it may affect the future of the prince."

Li Rui's words are not only protecting other officials in Bei County, but also protecting himself. No one can say whether Lu Chen's knife will fall on him.

At this time, the atmosphere in the courtyard was extremely dull, and there was still light snow in the sky. Li Rui and other officials stood motionless in the courtyard.

The officials didn't dare to take a breath, they just felt the chill on their backs and the cold sweat broke out on their bodies.

Now it depends on what the King of the North will do.

If the Northern King is determined to crack down on corrupt officials, I am afraid that none of them will be able to escape.

Lu Chen glanced at the loyalty of Li Rui and these officials. The loyalty of Li Rui, the sheriff, is the highest, and it has reached 95. The loyalty of other officials is basically around [-] or [-].

Loyalty is still loyal, but everyone has their own little thoughts.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Chen said lightly: "The king didn't plan to do any big cleansing, and I asked you to come to the palace to discuss the government in a few days, just because the king wanted to announce the reform plan, and when some officials from the North County heard that they would call them to discuss the government , I was so frightened that I ran away overnight with the money they embezzled."

"Now is the time for Beijun to employ people. Those officials embezzled so much money in Beijun, and as a result, they ran away with the money as soon as something happened. If this kind of person is not arrested, the king is too kind."

Hearing Lu Chen's direction, the officials were startled.

King of the North means...

They embezzled so much money, not only did they not honor him, but they ran away with the money and left him nothing, so he asked Jin Yiwei to arrest those escaped officials?

In this way, it seems that they are not without retreat.

When they go back, they will hand over the embezzled money. In this way, the Northern King should not trouble them, right?
At this time, Lu Chen continued: "Go back, if this king wants to arrest you, you will already be in the prison in Yancheng."

After hearing Lu Chen's words, Li Rui seemed to understand what Lu Chen meant. Lu Chen was planning to make an example of others.

Grab a few, and then deter other officials in Beijun.

Then he is probably fine. When Beiwang first came to Beijun, he immediately handed over all the power in his hands. Although Beiwang only took over the military power at that time, his initial attitude must have satisfied Beiwang.

The power in his hands is also given to him by the King of the North. If the King of the North wants to do something to him, he can be easily crushed to death. He is not a threat to the King of the North, and the King of the North will probably not deal with him.

Thinking of this, Li Rui finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately, Li Rui saluted and said, "I will take my leave."

After Li Rui and a group of officials left the palace, one of the officials immediately asked: "Master Li, will the lord really not liquidate the officials in Beijun?"

Li Rui replied: "Didn't the lord just say that the reason why he asked Jin Yiwei to arrest those people was because they wanted to escape from Beijun with embezzled money, so the lord arrested them."

"If you don't have such thoughts, the prince will probably not care about you. If the prince wants to liquidate the officials of Beijun, I am afraid that everyone present, including this official, will have been arrested long ago."

Speaking of this, Li Rui glanced at all the officials, and then said: "My lord is going to reform Beijun next time. You should be more flexible in your hands and feet from now on, and stop messing around like in the past."

"My lord has great ambitions. If you are still holding back my lord, even if my lord doesn't liquidate you now, sooner or later you will go in."

At this time, an official asked in a low voice: "My lord, what should we do with the money we collected before?"

Now that King Bei has already said that he will definitely arrest him if he escapes with the silver, then there is a high probability that these officials in Yancheng will not be able to escape.

The county magistrates in those small places were all captured by the Northern King Jin Yiwei. How could they escape under the watchful eyes of Jin Yiwei.

Since they can't escape, the money they embezzled in the past may be a bit hot, and no one knows whether these embezzled money will become evidence of their imprisonment one day.

Li Rui said: "It's simple. After you go back, send all the gifts and money you have received over the years to my mansion, and I will send them to the North Prince's mansion."

"By the way, I want to remind you that the prince's Jinyiwei is very powerful. If the prince wants to check how much money you have collected in the past, it is easy to find out. I still advise you not to take chances."

Hearing what Li Rui said, some officials who wanted to hide money secretly gave up their idea in an instant.

They also had a lot of dealings with Jin Yiwei, and they knew the horror of Jin Yiwei. Li Rui was right. If Jin Yiwei really wanted to investigate them, they might be wiped out.

In the dead of night.

Lu Chen was still busy in the study.

The lights in the study room were brightly lit. After Chu Qingli patrolled to the door of the study room, she found that the room was still lit. She immediately felt inconceivable.

Some time ago, Lu Chen did bad things with the woman in the palace every day, why has he become so honest these days, she seems to have not seen Lu Chen doing bad things with that woman for several days.

Could it be that this guy has a physical problem, can't he?

Actually, with his character, if he doesn't do bad things with women one day, he will definitely feel uncomfortable.

Um!It must be that the body is dying!

Even if he has a fairy fate, so what, he is still a mortal after all, and he is addicted to beauty every day, and no one can bear it.

This guy came to the study every day, probably to prevent his women from seeing that he was no longer able to do it. For his self-esteem, he hid in the study every day these days, and didn't go back at night.

Just when Chu Qingli was staring at the bright light in the study and thinking wildly, a gentle voice appeared behind Chu Qingli, "Qingli, what are you looking at?"

Chu Qingli came back to her senses in an instant, she turned her head and saw that it was Chu Yuqin, so she immediately said: "I didn't see anything, I was thinking about something just now."

At this time, Chu Yuqin also looked at the study where Lu Chen was. Seeing that there was still light in Lu Chen's study, Chu Yuqin said to herself, "Chen'er has grown up as expected."

After the words fell, Chu Yuqin couldn't help showing a blush on her face, and she suddenly remembered what happened in the study not long ago in her mind.
