Comprehensive martial arts: Summon Li Chungang and ask Wu Zetian for advice

Chapter 74
"I, the magician Pang Ban, will never forget this revenge of killing my master."

His eyes gradually turned cold, and his whole body exuded a strong murderous intent. He said to Prince Ning: "That's enough. No matter how angry you are now, it won't help."

"Do you think that Zhu Houzhao doesn't know about your conspiracy with us? Or do you think that he will let you go for the sake of his fellow clan members?"

"Now the deal is done, my lord, there is no way back for you."

As soon as these words came out, Prince Ning's expression suddenly became miserable.

Although I don't want to admit it, it's the truth.

If he still had a choice and a way out, would he still sit here?At a loss?
"Your Majesty, if you stay here, you will die sooner or later." After saying this, the magician Pang Ban paused, glanced at the pale-faced Prince Ning, and said: "Instead of doing this, Your Majesty, it would be better for you to return to Dayuan with me, that way Not only will he not die, he will even have the status he currently has."

"Go to Dayuan?!" After hearing this, Prince Ning couldn't help but feel confused.

Now it seems that this is the only way to go.

If I just went to Dayuan, would I still have such a status?

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I will do what I say." Pang Ban looked at Prince Ning with a deep look and smiled lightly.

He doesn't care about Prince Ning's decision. Even if Prince Ning chooses not to agree, he will tie Prince Ning to Dayuan.

Prince Ning seems to be in the sunset, but he is still valuable to Dayuan.

Six doors.

Following Zhu Houzhao's decree, all the six doors immediately moved and began a search of the Ming Dynasty Hall.

And such a menacing move made everyone feel in danger for a while.

However, the effectiveness of this is also obvious, as intelligence from various places continues to flow to the six doors.

just.

As the intelligence gathered, Zhuge Zhengwo's expression became more and more gloomy, and he did not look relaxed at all.

Wuqing on the side looked at the information in front of him, his brows furrowed and his face extremely solemn.

"Father, if such information is passed on, something big will happen, right?!"

Wuqing turned to look at Zhuge Zhengwo beside him, and said with a slightly trembling tone.

She had always acted resolutely, but she couldn't help but hesitate on this matter.

Because she understood that once this information was presented to Zhu Houzhao, it would inevitably cause a bloody storm.

The Ming Dynasty court is bound to cause a more inhumane storm than the disaster caused by Yan Song's rebellion when Zhu Houzhao ascended the throne.

On the day Zhu Houzhao ascended the throne, he suppressed Yan Song's rebellion with extremely bloody methods, implicating countless people.

To this day, there are still the corpses of the rebels who were executed that day on the mass graves outside the city.

It's not because no one dared to restrain themselves, but because the corpses were piled up in mountains, so that no one dared to go to the mass graves.

Even now, every time I go to court, there is still a faint smell of blood lingering in my ears.

What happened that day could be said to be tragic, but it was far inferior to the consequences of submitting this information.

She couldn't even see how many people in the entire Ming Dynasty could survive this turmoil alone.

Last time at least half of the people were lucky enough to survive, but this time no one could survive.

If Zhu Houzhao's previous treatment was followed, the entire Ming Dynasty would have to change its people.

"Something big happened?!"

Zhuge Zhengwo snorted coldly, looked back at Wuqing and smiled bitterly, and said helplessly: "Have your Majesty not had many big things happen since he ascended the throne?"

"Your Majesty is not as simple as you think, even if you have the ability to read minds."

"Sir you?"

Hearing this, Qingqing was shocked. How did Zhuge Zhengga know that she had used mind-reading skills on Zhu Houzhao?

But for Zhu Houzhao, even if she used her mind-reading skills, she still couldn't tell what he was thinking.

This surprised her for a while.

"Hey, am I not clear about your character?"

Zhuge Zhengwo looked at Wuqing dotingly, his face straightened, and he said earnestly: "In this world, there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world." "Just like you and me in the capital, we never knew that your majesty has such a profound heritage. Never use mind reading on other people in the future, especially His Majesty."

"The power of God is unpredictable. Even I may not be able to protect you when the time comes!"

"Sir, I see."

Wuqing nodded deeply. Since the failure of that exploration, she no longer dared to read Zhu Houzhao's mind.

"Ok!"

After seeing Wuqing's agreement, Zhuge Zhengwo nodded with satisfaction, and then sighed sadly: "In any case, this information must be reported to His Majesty intact, and there must be no concealment."

"As for what you are worried about, how could His Majesty not think of it?"

"What do you mean, sir?!"

Hearing this, Ru Wu was suddenly startled and looked at Zhuge Zhengwo in confusion.

"Perhaps this is the result that Your Majesty wants." Zhuge Zhengwo's face was as gloomy as water and he said in a deep tone: "Since Your Majesty knew that King Ning was going to rebel, why didn't you take action for so long?"

"Do you think His Majesty has forgotten this matter? Have you never thought about the deep meaning behind His Majesty's actions?"

"Always keep Prince Ning? No action?"

When Ru Wuqing heard this, his brows suddenly lowered, he murmured to himself, and began to think about all this.

"Prince Ning, Prince Ning, Prince Ning, Prince Ning belongs to the local vassal king. This problem is caused by insufficient local tax money..."

Soon a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in her mind, and she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Is it possible that His Majesty's real intention is not those corrupt officials, but the vassal kings everywhere?!"

"good."

Zhuge Zhengwo nodded, his face became even darker, and he sighed: "King Ning is only secondary. Your Majesty's real intention is to take this opportunity to cut down the vassal."

"After all, the last sentence of His Majesty's decree is: to thoroughly investigate how much tax money the vassal kings in various places have swallowed up the imperial court."

"It turns out that His Majesty's real intention is those feudal kings."

Knowing this, Ru Wu was once again shocked by Zhu Houzhao's foresight.

But immediately, a look of worry suddenly appeared on her pretty face, and she said: "But reducing the vassal clan, is this a bit too hasty?"

And this is exactly what Zhuge Zhengwo is worried about.

Cutting down vassal vassals was not something that no one had done before during the Ming Dynasty.

It's just that the person who did that thing paid an extremely painful price in the end, and the country changed hands.

Since then, no emperor has dared to mention the reduction of vassals.

But this time Zhu Houzhao actually dared to attack the vassal kings from all over the country, which was indeed beyond his imagination.

In normal times, having two Immortal Realm backgrounds would be enough to support Zhu Houzhao in cutting down the feudal vassal.

But now the Ming Dynasty is surrounded by enemies outside, and it is even more chaotic inside.

Wouldn't cutting down the vassalage at this time add fuel to the fire and lead to self-destruction?
But even though he had this worry in his heart, as a minister, he could only obey unconditionally.

after all.

According to past experience, anyone who disobeys Zhu Houzhao will not end well.

Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty is the most obvious example.

In the face of Zhu Houzhao's invincible power, no one dared to disobey him, no matter who he was.

Thinking of this, Zhuge Zhengwo no longer hesitated and said to Qingqing: "Let's go to Prince Ning's Mansion with me."

"Prince Ning's Mansion?" Wuqing couldn't help but be startled when he heard this, and looked at Zhuge Zhengwo in confusion.

"Ah."

Zhuge Zhengwo looked solemn and said resolutely: "Since Your Majesty wants to reduce the vassal state, we must find a justifiable reason for Your Majesty."

"And Prince Ning is the most suitable..."
