In the emperor's study, General Jiao was kneeling in the room.

"Your Majesty, I wonder if I have summoned the general today and what are your orders?" General Jiao asked with a confused look on his face.

The emperor looked at General Jiao, who was no longer young, and said, "General Jiao, you have been by my side for many years and dedicated your life. I think you have worked hard."

"The general is scared. It is the general's honor to work hard for His Majesty. How dare you talk about hard work?" General Jiao said.

He was thinking about what the emperor was going to do.

The emperor listened to General Jiao's words with a calm expression, ignored them, and was slightly impatient.

General Jiao felt even more uneasy when he saw that the emperor ignored him.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

"I have seen General Jiao's hard work. I summoned General Jiao today because I want him to remove his armor and return to his fields to take care of himself."

When General Jiao heard the words "longevity", he couldn't control the expression on his face, revealing the sadness in his heart.

Since the death of General Liang, General Jiao has been careful and tried to keep a low profile for fear that the emperor would kill him.

Now he still has to face the emperor's ruthlessness.

Looking at the expression on General Jiao's face, the emperor said: "Is it possible that General Jiao doesn't want to go home and take care of himself?"

General Jiao looked at the threatening look on the emperor's face. General Jiao smiled stiffly and said, "General, I can't help but be happy. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your sympathy."

A smile appeared on the emperor's face.

After General Jiao left, the smile on the emperor's face became more and more constant.

Yuan Gao walked in slowly, holding a wooden sign with the names of the concubines in his hand.

"My servant congratulates the emperor for solving the matter in his mind." Yuan Gao said with a smile.

The emperor listened calmly and ignored Yuan Gao, but looked at the sign in Yuan Gao's hand.

The emperor opened several brands in succession, and it turned out that they were beauties sent by various dynasties.

Yuan Gao watched the emperor open several brands in succession, feeling secretly surprised in his heart.

The emperor actually wanted several concubines to sleep with him.

"I'm in a good mood today," the emperor said.

"Yes, I will prepare now."

The next day, news spread throughout the palace that the emperor favored several concubines in one night.

Since then, General Jiao has been idle at home, and Jiao Zhenzhen has become more and more transparent in the harem.

Down towards the back.

"Xiao Yuan, meet Master Jia." Xiao Yuan saluted Master Jia respectfully.

Master Jia ignored Xiao Yuan and walked straight to his carriage.

Seeing Mr. Jia leaving, Xiao Yuan's smile froze on his face.

Mr. Jia, who was approaching the carriage, looked at the Jin Yiwei who was already waiting beside the carriage with gifts. He didn't pay any attention and got on the carriage.

Xiao Yuan looked at the leaving carriage and slowly walked to the place where the carriage stopped.

"Master Xiao, Master Jia has been ignoring us for several days. Otherwise, we..." said the Jin Yiwei beside him.

Xiao Yuan's face turned gloomy when he heard Jin Yiwei's voice urging him to retreat, but then he sneered.

The Jin Yiwei beside him stopped talking when he saw Master Xiao's appearance.

The scene of Master Jia ignoring Xiao Yuan was seen by many people, and the Ninth Prince also witnessed the scene in front of him.

Seeing this scene, the Ninth Prince's thoughts started to change.

In Liang Meng Palace.

Liang Meng held the letter from Jing Huan in his hand.

"Mother, please think of a way. There are always people in Huoyao, Tushui, Huantu, and Chaomu who want to restore the country. Daikin's high-end weapons cannot suppress their eagerness to try."

Liang Meng looked at the letter and secretly thought about saving it.

In the Dajin court, discussions were also held on the matter of rebellion.

Jia Zhongguo looked at the emperor's face and said: "Your Majesty, they are just fleas, there is nothing to be afraid of."

All officials agreed.

The emperor nodded.

The Ninth Prince looked at the emperor who was becoming more and more mediocre in front of him, with a strange gleam in his eyes.

Then everyone started discussing about the recent flooding.

"What do you think of the recent sudden floods in Dajin?" the emperor asked.

"The emperor should send people to flood-stricken areas as soon as possible to provide relief."

The emperor nodded in agreement.

"Who should be sent?"

……

In the end, people under Lord Jia's command were sent to deal with the flood.

In Liang Meng Palace.

"Mother, the recent floods have consumed a lot of money from the treasury." Tuoba Lanrou said.

"A lot of money was spent? As far as the Ai family knows, the flood has not ended. Why has so much money been consumed and the flood has not subsided?" Liang Meng said.

The two fell into silence for a while.

night.

At the door of Liang Meng's palace, a little eunuch looked at it furtively. Then the little eunuch took out an account book from his sleeve and stuffed the account book into the crack of the door.

Then the little eunuch left quickly.

early morning.

When Hongyu opened the palace door, she found an account book and hurriedly gave it to Liang Meng.

"The Queen Mother found this in front of the palace gate this morning." Hong Yu said and handed the account book to Liang Meng.

Liang Meng took the account book in Hongyu's hand and looked at it carefully.

This account book turned out to be evidence of Jia Zhongguo's corruption and perversion of the law.

who is it? Why did this account book appear in front of me?

Regardless of who hands him the evidence of Jia Zhongguo's corruption and perversion of the law, let's consider how to deal with Jia Zhongguo first.

Liang Meng decisively handed Jia Zhongguo's evidence to the emperor.

In the emperor's bedroom.

The emperor's face did not look good when he saw the evidence of Jia Zhongguo's corruption and perversion of the law.

In the Dajin court hall.

The emperor showed the account book to Jia Zhongguo, his face was very ugly.

"Master Jia, please give me a good explanation."

"Your Majesty, I have been wronged. I am loyal to the Emperor and to Dajin. Someone must have framed me." Jia Zhongguo said hurriedly after seeing the account books.

"Unjustly accused? How could you be wronged?" The anger on the emperor's face began to ease.

When Jia Zhongguo saw this, he knew that there was a turning point in the matter and hurriedly began to defend himself.

Xiao Yuan couldn't help but look gloomy as he looked at the emperor's increasingly relaxed expression.

Soon Jia Zhongguo's corruption and perversion of the law was discovered. He was a subordinate of Mr. Jia, and he committed corruption and perversion of the law in Mr. Jia's name.

No one cares about the real facts, they only care about what they want to know.

Above the Dajin Court Hall.

"Jia Aiqing, from now on you need to know people and make good use of them."

Jia Zhongguo nodded.

In the emperor's study.

The emperor is admiring calligraphy and painting.

Yuan Gao moved piles of memorials into the study.

"Your Majesty, this is the memorial sent by the cabinet today." Yuan Gao placed the memorial on the table and said.

The emperor nodded impatiently.

Then Yuan Gao stood aside respectfully, while the emperor admired the calligraphy and paintings, and the time passed by minute by minute.

The emperor finally withdrew from the world of calligraphy and painting, glanced at the memorial on the table, frowned, and then glanced at Yuan Gao.

An idea came to mind.

"Yuan Gao, come here, read the memorial to me." The emperor said and handed a memorial in his hand to Yuan Gao.

"Your Majesty, this servant is scared." Yuan Gao hurriedly knelt down and said.

"I ordered you to do this, what are you afraid of?"

"Yes."

Then Yuan Gao read the memorial aloud.

After Yuan Gao finished reading a memorial, he stopped and waited for the emperor's instructions.

"Yuan Gao, if you have finished reading, then write a reading on this memorial."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Yuan Gao doesn't dare."

"I ask you to do this, just do it." There was a hint of displeasure on the emperor's face.

Yuan Gao sensed the emperor's displeasure and said, "Yuan Gao obeys the order."

Yuan Gao took a writing brush and wrote the word "read" on the memorial.

After Yuan Gao finished writing, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

It's power, it's the smell of power.

The news that Yuan Gao reviewed for the emperor spread throughout the imperial city.

For a time, everyone in the world knew that Yuan Gao's power was immense.

pier.

A large ship slowly docked at the dock.

Three people came down from above, and they were Theodore, Liu Xingzhu and Zheng Boying.

This time Theodore was not wearing rags, but was wearing a gorgeous knight's uniform.

"Ghost, it's a water ghost, run away." The people shouted loudly and ran away in panic.

A gorgeous knight's costume did not stop people from escaping.

Seeing Theodore's depressed look, Liu Xingzhu laughed.

Above the Dajin Court Hall.

Theodore bowed ceremoniously to the emperor.

"Dear His Majesty the Emperor, I am Theodore. I am here this time to conduct transactions with Daikin on behalf of my country. I sincerely ask His Majesty the Emperor for permission."

As Theodore said, he motioned to carry the spices and other things he brought into the hall.

The emperor looked at the things that were carried up calmly.

"The transaction still needs to be discussed. Come and reward Theodore from afar with gold, silver and jewels." The emperor said arrogantly.

Jia Zhongguo looked at the spices that Theodore brought in, and thought of the hot spices sold in the shops in the imperial city, and his mind began to wander.

"My dear friends, do you think we should open the sea to trade with other countries?"

"Your Majesty, I think we need to think twice about opening the sea." Jia Zhongguo said.

"Oh, Jia Aiqing might as well talk about it."

The emperor felt that Jia Zhongguo spoke to his heart, so he said expectantly.

"Your Majesty, since ancient times, scholars, farmers, industry and merchants have been ranked at the bottom. Those who are merchants are despicable. We, Dajin, are a great country and a country in heaven. How can we be willing to degenerate and associate with merchants." Jia Zhongguo said.

All the officials nodded frequently.

"The Kingdom of Heaven is self-sufficient, so why are you willing to degenerate and associate with businessmen." The emperor said in great agreement.

Then Daikin rejected the decision to do business with Theodore.

A large gold reward was given to Theodore with many treasures.

At night, Liang Meng received a letter from Theodore.

"Dear Queen Mother, Theodore has something to tell you. An official from Daikin came to Theodore.

He said that he wanted to conduct private transactions with Theodore's country. This official was the one who lobbied the Emperor of Dajin in the court not to open the sea. He was Lord Jia Zhongguo of Dajin.

I think this matter needs to be told to you, my beloved Queen Mother. "

Liang Meng looked at the letter in his hand, recalling the recent events in his mind.

A decision was formed in Liang Meng's heart.

Jia Mansion.

"Master Xiao, please don't come here again." said the housekeeper of the Jia family.

After saying that, Jia's mansion closed the door tightly.

Xiao Yuan looked at the closed door of Jia Mansion with a gloomy expression.

Xiao Yuan, who turned to leave, saw a carriage slowly coming to the door of Jia's mansion and stopping in front of him.

Xiao Yuan was about to get angry when he heard the voice of the person speaking in the carriage. It was someone Xiao Yuan could not offend, so he suppressed the anger in his heart.

"Master Xiao, please give me a favor and talk to me in the carriage."

Xiao Yuan couldn't refuse, and then got on the carriage.

Inside the carriage.

"Xiao Yuan has met the Ninth Prince." The Ninth Prince's next words made Xiao Yuan's mood no longer calm.

"Master Jia's corruption and perversion of the law must be your fault."

Surprised to see Xiao Yuan.

The Ninth Prince then continued: "Don't worry that I won't tell anyone. I can help you bring down Mr. Jia, just."

Xiao Yuan looked at the Ninth Prince in confusion.

"I wonder how the prince can help Xiao Yuan?"

"Jia Zhongguo is just a dog raised by his master. If the master is gone, will the dog still exist?" said the Ninth Prince.

After Xiao Yuan heard what the Ninth Prince said, he was extremely surprised. The Ninth Prince thought. He thought

Xiao Yuan looked at the Ninth Prince and then thought.

"Could it be that the prince wants to kill the dog's owner with Xiao Yuan alone?"

When the Ninth Prince saw that Xiao Yuan did not refuse but instead asked, he knew that he was right to find Xiao Yuan and said, "Of course you are not the only one."

The Ninth Prince said, then dipped his hand in tea and wrote on the tea table in the carriage.

Xiao Yuan looked at it and saw that it was the word "Jiao".

Xiao Yuan thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Then the laughter of the Ninth Prince spread out from the carriage.

The Ninth Prince's Mansion.

"Princess." The maid walked into the house carrying the meal.

Fang Hui ate her meal slowly.

"Princess, the prince has not gone to the concubine these days." The maid said with a smile on her face.

Fang Hui didn't care.

"Princess, I have inquired. The prince has gone to the study as soon as he has gone to court these days. Immediately afterwards, the advisers from the palace also come to the study. A group of people stay in the study until late at night.

I don’t know what major events happened in the court. "

The maid was talking to herself, looking at Fang Hui's expression constantly. Seeing that Fang Hui was still calm, she said: "Princess, the prince is busy with political affairs in the study. It must be very hard. Princess, why not bring some soup to the prince?" .”

"You've talked too much today, please step back." Fang Hui said to the maid.

"Princess, please calm down. This slave is talking too much. I will step back now."

Then the maid left the house. When she turned around and closed the door, she glanced at Fang Hui.

I thought in my heart, Miss, the madam has asked this servant to find a way to ease the relationship between you and the prince for the sake of your future. This slave has to do it.

Ninth Prince’s study room.

The maid carried the prepared chicken soup and slowly approached the door of the study.

There was a sound in the study.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor is allowing the eunuchs to confuse the imperial court and indulge in beauty. All these are signs of the destruction of the country. Your Majesty must be upholding the will of God to clean up the imperial palace... We will definitely succeed immediately. I congratulate you in advance for your honor. Bit."

……

The maid who was about to knock on the door of the study was shocked, her eyes widened, her mouth tightened, she turned around stiffly and slowly left the study.

After leaving the study room, he quickly ran on the road with the chicken soup, not caring about the chicken soup spilling out.

"Princess." The maid hurriedly walked into the princess's room.

The princess, who was burning incense and worshiping Buddha, knelt down devoutly and was not disturbed by the maid's panic.

The maid hurriedly approached the princess, out of breath, and said in a trembling voice: "Princess, princess, it's not good."

When Fang Hui heard the maid's panicked voice, she opened her eyes and looked at the maid: "What happened? You are so panicked."

The maid then began to speak stumblingly: "It's the prince. I heard this outside the prince's study..."

After listening to the maid's story, Fang Hui couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hands to express her inner shock.

Fang Hui thought in her heart that he was really crazy, no, the prince died because of him, the Fang family, the Fang family cannot be buried with him, absolutely not.

Then Fang Hui picked up a pen and paper to write a letter, and then said to the maid: "You go and prepare the carriage. I am going to the University of Metallurgical Engineering."

The maid nodded and immediately went to make arrangements.

In Liang Meng Palace.

Liang Meng looked at the letter in his hand.

"The Ninth Prince intends to rebel."

It's true that the emperor is ready to take action when he is unstable.

"Xiao Yuan."

"General Jiao."

I really didn't expect that they would join the Ninth Prince in plotting rebellion.

"Miss."

Hongyu stood in front of him, waiting for instructions.

Liang Meng wrote on the paper, be careful when eating.

Then he ordered Hongyu to give this to Fang Hui.

No matter whether it is the Ninth Prince or the Emperor, no matter who it is, if anyone dares to block my way to change this era, then I will kill gods and demons.

After a long time.

"The Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, today the Ninth Prince's Mansion came to report that the Ninth Prince was bombed."

Liang Meng was not too surprised and asked: "How did it explode?"

"Replying to the queen, the news came from the palace that the ninth prince died suddenly while dining with the princess. The princess said that the prince was often busy late at night on official business, and the imperial doctor said that he died of a sudden cardiac arrest."

Liang Meng nodded.

He didn't even bother to know the real cause of death of the Ninth Prince. He only knew that the result was what he wanted.

Before everyone could get over the shock of the Ninth Prince's sudden death, an even bigger news shocked everyone.

The emperor died.

The nine tolls of the Dragon Bell resound in everyone’s heart.

The emperor died on the bed of a concubine in the palace. It was so indecent that everyone tried their best to conceal the appearance of the emperor when he died. No one cared about why the emperor died.

For a moment, the entire imperial city was so quiet that you could hear a hair falling to the ground.

No one was walking on the streets, and there were soldiers patrolling everywhere.

With Liu Heng's army, Tuoba's army, and the emperor's only child, the eldest prince, all the forces of Dajin were naturally in the hands of Liang Meng. This change of imperial power was very smooth.

Jiao Mansion.

"The Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, please spare your life! The general is unjust, the general is not treason, the general is not." General Jiao shouted loudly.

Liang Meng ignored General Jiao's pleas and always believed in Liang Meng's heart that since he has made a choice, he must pay the price for his choice.

Liang Meng waved his hand to take General Jiao down.

Turning around and looking at Xiao Yuan.

"I wonder how Mr. Xiao feels after seeing so many cases of confiscating homes and exterminating families for a long time? Have you ever been in awe?"

Xiao Yuan looked at Liang Meng.

Then kneel down.

"The Empress Dowager, Xiao Yuan agreed to the Ninth Prince because he was confused for a moment, and I ask the Empress Dowager to show mercy."

"Remember, you are a knife of the Ai family. The knife can never be pointed at the master." Liang Meng said.

Xiao Yuan suddenly raised his head and looked at the majestic person in front of him, only to realize that he had forgotten who the person who brought him status was. It was never easy to forget the person in front of him.

"The Empress Dowager, Xiao Yuan has remembered it."

Then Liang Meng took out an account book from his sleeve and handed it to Xiao Yuan.

Xiao Yuan took the account book and looked through it. He understood that the account book was evidence of corruption and perversion of the law.

"This?" Xiao Yuan asked doubtfully.

"Jia Zhongguo." Liang Meng said slowly.

Corruption and perversion of the law was not the reason why Liang Meng wanted to get rid of Jia Zhongguo. Was it corruption and perversion of the law? This is true for all officials, but the real reason Jia Zhongguo died was because he prevented the emperor from opening the sea.

Anyone who hinders Liang Meng from changing this era, no matter who he is, has one and only one way, and that is death.

"Yes." Xiao Yuan's eyes were filled with joy.

Jia Mansion.

Wails filled the sky.

"Xiao Yuan, bastard ear, it must be you, it must be you, that my Jia family has fallen into this situation." Jia Zhongguo cursed at Xiao Yuan.

Jia Zhongguo was pinned to the ground by two Jinyi guards.

"Master Jia." Xiao Yuan pinched Jia Zhongguo's face with his hands and said.

"This time, the destruction of your Jia family has nothing to do with Xiao. The blame is on yourself, and I, Xiao Yuan, hate people calling me bastard the most in my life."

After saying that, Xiao Yuan kicked out. Mr. Jia instantly left the ground and was kicked far away. He lay on the ground with blood from the corner of his mouth.

Jia Bingbing, who was pushed out, happened to see this scene.

"Father." Jia Bingbing shouted loudly.

Xiao Yuan panicked instantly when he saw Jia Bingbing.

……

Inside the palace.

In a small house.

Yuan Gao sat on the ground neatly dressed, looked at the poison on the table, and swallowed it without hesitation.

When his eyes lost their light, he saw the good old days, the princess, his grandfather, and his young self.

Above the Dajin Court Hall.

The young eldest prince sat on the dragon chair, and behind him, Liang Meng sat listening to the affairs behind the curtain.

From then on, Liang Meng began to live in the days of listening to politics.

"Your Majesty, I think we should start trade with Feng Kingdom and other countries." Zhang Zheng stood up and said.

At this time, Zhang Zheng was wearing clothes that only the chief minister of the cabinet could wear.

Zhang Zheng thought as he looked at the Empress Dowager behind the emperor.

"Zhang Zheng, you are a member of Jia Zhongguo's command. If the Ai family remembers it correctly, it turns out that you are a member of the Zheng family. You have changed camps again and again, and you are not someone the Ai family appreciates.

The Aijia should not use you. You come to the Aijia today to plead. You need to give the Aijia a reason. "

"The Empress Dowager, Zhang Zheng has indeed changed camps again and again, but if he wants to truly realize his ideals, he needs to control power. Zhang Zheng is just climbing the mountain desperately."

"Then have you lost your original ideals on the road?" Liang Meng asked.

"The Empress Dowager, Zhang Zheng has never forgotten his ideals when he came. I hope that the great golden sea and rivers will be clear, the people will live and work in peace and contentment, and everyone will be able to take the imperial examination." Zhang Zheng said.

Zhang Zheng saw Liang Meng's calm expression and said, "Zhang Zheng is willing to prove himself by not marrying for the rest of his life."

Liang Meng looked at Zhang Zheng in surprise.

Zhang Zheng's eyes were full of determination.

……

No one in the court objected to the opening of trade.

"Xiao Yuan, you send the Jin Yiwei to collect information about other countries." The emperor's childish voice said in the court.

"Yes." Xiao Yuan said.

The entrance to the Ninth Prince's Mansion.

Fang Hui got off the carriage, followed by the maid, holding a stack of books.

"Miss, why do you like these books about the law?"

Fang Hui didn't answer and walked straight to the house.

Dajin Institute of Technology.

Waves of sounds of English letters reached everyone's ears.

"G~o~d Is this the God of Feng Country?" Jia Bingbing's voice came out.

Theodore nodded.

Then there was another sound of reciting letters.

Liu Xingzhu, who was watching all this, said, "Is there anyone who can stop them?"

Li Qingfeng shook his head instantly.

"I am determined not to go. The last time I went to persuade him, Jia Bingbing pulled me to explore Taoism."

Sun Qingwu also shook his head: "The last time I tried to persuade him, Jia Bingbing pulled me and insisted on learning Tu Shui's language, saying that she wanted to use Tu Shui's language to translate Buddhism."

"Me too, she said she also wanted to translate Taoism to the world." Li Qingfeng said with lingering fear.

Everyone shook their heads.

……

After that, Daikin entered the steam age, and trains and ships were built one by one.

Factories began to be built on Daikin's land, and businessmen and workers began to appear within Daikin's territory.

The Confucian idea of ​​destiny began to be impacted by science, and the entire Daikin entered the ocean of science.

Daijin's imperial power system was also impacted.

War will inevitably break out in this world, long, long time later.

Dajin changed its name to the Kingdom of Jin. The Kingdom of Jin became the most powerful country in the world through paper currency called gold yuan, which was linked to silver, and has always stood at the top of the world.
