Chapter 469 Book Hou Truth and Fiction Come Together

Capital, Palace Library.

[-] students of the science fiction school are constantly scanning the novels with scanners, assisting the robot AlphaGo to read the novels.

So far, the number of novels recorded in AlphaGo’s brain has reached 8000 million, and the novels stored in the palace are almost all read.

"Concubine Shu, there are only about 1000 million novels left in the palace." Ke Jiji said, "Afagou will read all of them tomorrow."

Concubine Lu Ji Shu sat on the throne in the hall and said: "Mr. Ke, don't worry, I have sent someone to seal the Shuhou Mansion. If there is no accident, 12000 million novels can be confiscated today."

"Shuhou's Mansion?" Ke Jiji was taken aback. Chidan Shuhou Zhu Haoran held a high position in the imperial court, and almost no one dared to offend him. Concubine Luji Shushu is now sealing up Shuhou's Mansion, obviously something big has happened.

Swish!
Just as he was talking, an old eunuch walked in quickly, it was Eunuch Hai.

After the ceremony, Haigong Gonghui reported: "Ms. Concubine Shu, according to your will, the slaves have sealed up the residences of thirteen corrupt officials in the capital, including Shuhou's Mansion, Prime Minister's Mansion, and Six Gates. All corrupt officials have been arrested. Bring to justice."

Concubine Luji Shu raised her eyebrows: "Everyone has been arrested?"

"Yes." Hai Gong said, "The thirteen corrupt officials have all been arrested and taken to the palace."

Concubine Lu Jishu asked: "How many novels have been seized?"

Haigong is fair: "The number of novels written by the thirteen corrupt-officials is basically consistent with the information provided by the people in the Xiyang District of the capital. Zhou Chengsheng, the minister of the book department, Zhuge Wang, the chief arrester of the six doors, Wang Minghai, the minister of punishment, and other officials, The embezzlement of novels ranged from 500 million to 800 million respectively. Chidan Shuhou Zhu Haoran embezzled the largest amount, with the number of novels exceeding 5000 million. It's just that Lord Zhu had already transferred the novels in advance, and the slaves in the book The Hou Mansion only found 1000 million copies, and the whereabouts of the remaining 4000 million copies are unknown. The servants interrogated Master Zhu several times, but he still refused to say where the novel was buried."

Concubine Lu Jishu said: "Bring them all in, and I will interrogate them myself."

"Yes."

Not long after, thirteen officials were escorted into the hall by Jin Shuwei. These officials were all high-ranking officials in the capital. At this moment, their hands and feet were all wearing iron chains, and they were already prisoners.

With a glance, Concubine Lu Ji saw Zhou Chengsheng, Minister of the Book Department, Wang Minghai, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Guo Linde, Minister of the Household Department and other cabinet ministers.

Standing among the thirteen corrupt officials was a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, with a Chinese character face showing a majestic aura. He was the famous Chidan Shuhou——Zhu Haoran.

"My lords, you are really capable!" Concubine Lu Ji Shu said to all the corrupt officials, "The collection of books in your mansion is more than that of the palace library, His Majesty the Book Emperor really did not choose the wrong person. You are indeed the talents of the pillars, you take all the people's money into your pockets without any effort, you are worthy of being the parents of the people, you always like to take care of your children's money..."

"The old minister is guilty, the old minister deserves to die!" Wang Minghai knelt down and kowtowed, his body trembling slightly.

"My lord, what are you guilty of?" Concubine Lu Ji Shu said, "As the secretary of the Ministry of punishment, you give full play to your knowledge, plunder the people, and collect money for the country. It can be said that you are concerned about the country and the people. How can I reward you?"

Wang Minghai was so frightened that he trembled all over his body: "Damn the old minister! It's all because the old minister was confused for a moment. He didn't accept Zhu Hou's inducement. He was obsessed with money, so he started to corrupt and accept bribes. Please forgive me!"

"Your Majesty, please be kind! We were all deceived by Master Zhu!"

At this time, more than a dozen officials, including Zhou Chengsheng, Minister of the Book Department, and Guo Linde, Minister of the Household Department, knelt down and begged for mercy.

Zhu Haoran stood upright on the spot, upright and fearless in the face of danger.

"What a bunch of trash who are greedy for life and afraid of death!" Zhu Haoran stared down at the kneeling officials, "If you are not greedy, how could you be seduced by this lord? You are willing to follow this lord's corruption and bribery, Is it because you think that Benhou can back you up and act as an umbrella for you. Why, now that things have been exposed, you all want to turn your face and deny anyone, and dump the blame on Benhou?"

"Master Zhu, you know whether you have induced us to be corrupt." Zhou Chengsheng said, "If you hadn't hinted repeatedly, how would I have dared to be blatantly corrupt and accept bribes from wealthy businessmen?"

"Master Zhou is right." At this time, Wang Minghai, Minister of the Ministry of Justice, continued to accuse, "Master Zhu, if you hadn't taken me to drink flower wine and made me fall in love with famous Jiangnan prostitutes, how could I be so greedy and wantonly amassing money? ?”

On the side, Guo Linde, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, continued: "Master Zhu, I will embark on the path of no return to corruption, and it is also thanks to you. I did not dare to embezzle taxpayers' money, but you use your Actions imply to me that corruption is normal, and officials who are not corrupt are stupid. It was under the guidance of Lord Zhu Hou that I began to accept bribes. The more greedy, the bolder, the more corrupt. If not You, I absolutely dare not embezzle millions of taxpayer novels!"

All officials speak with one voice.

After listening to what they said, the case became clear at once. Chidan Shuhou Zhu Haoran was the mastermind behind the entire corruption group.It was with Zhu Haoran's instigation and support that Zhou Chengsheng, Minister of the Book Department, Wang Minghai, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Guo Linde, Minister of the Household Department, and other high-ranking officials in the capital all had the confidence to embezzle and accept bribes unscrupulously.

"Master Zhu, you are so generous!" Concubine Lu Ji Shu said, "You are not only corrupt yourself, but you also lead everyone to corrupt together, to share the blessings, to be corrupt together, to be corrupt together, to be in collusion, you are really far-sighted. .”

"Your Majesty, what you said is wrong." Zhu Haoran said straightly without changing his face, "Although this Marquis is corrupt, he has not joined forces with others. This group of corrupt officials who are greedy for life and afraid of death are not qualified to compete with this Marquis. They are on a par. These dog-officials are corrupt and accept-bribes for the sake of personal glory and wealth; while this Marquis is corrupt-for the sake of the people of the world."

Concubine Lu Ji Shu said: "Master Zhu's statement is quite new, tell me, how did you corrupt for the sake of the people of the world?"

Zhu Haoran said loudly: "My Great Imperial Kingdom is a kingdom of reading. It is reasonable for the people of the world to read poems and books and seek the truth of heaven and earth. It is a pity that the imperial power is in power, and dogs and officials are rampant. The emperor is in charge of power alone, but obsessed with personal pleasure. There are thirty thousand beauties in the harem, who are obsessed with reading imperial literature for many years, and are indifferent to the world and the people's livelihood.

The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked.The emperor of the book did nothing, and the cabinet ministers and officials from all over the country were also a mob. These officials were selfish, using their power for personal gain, and they were all thinking about how to plunder the people and fill their pockets.In order to stabilize their own interests, court officials did not hesitate to suppress scholars in the book forest.For these dog-officials, the way of reading and the principles of heaven and earth are not important, only wealth and status are what they want.

Just ask, what future can such a decadent imperial dictatorship have?Everyone no longer reads, seeks the truth, only thinks about prosperity and wealth, and only thinks about fighting for power and profit. People become more and more greedy and ignorant. .

Seeing the rancid smell permeating the Great Imperial Kingdom, Ben Hou was heartbroken.But I know that it is too difficult to change the status quo.The Emperor of Books was obsessed with imperial literature, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty were in a mess, and the people at the bottom had been brainwashed for many years, and they were even more ignorant.From top to bottom, there is a smell of corruption. How easy is it to change this country?
Ben Hou thought hard and decided to save the country by curve.If you want to change this country, you must fundamentally overthrow the imperial power. You must pull down the book emperor and all the dog-officials, that is, you must rebel!
The roots of the imperial power are great, and it is as difficult as climbing to the sky to seek rebellion, and there are very few like-minded people.Therefore, Benhou decided to become a corrupt official.

Because only by becoming a corrupt official, can Ben Hou gather a large amount of resources in the shortest time; Only then can he take advantage of the momentum and fight against the Emperor of Books.

Therefore, Ben Hou began to take bribes ten years ago, and established a huge network of corruption relationships with dog-officials all over the country.With the help of this network, Ben Hou quickly accumulated contacts and resources, and every year more than half of the country's excellent novels fall into Ben Hou's hands.

Those who win novels win the world.As long as Ben Hou has enough novel resources, there will be a basis for rebellion.

Over the past ten years, the number of novels embezzled by Ben Hou has already occupied half of the entire imperial kingdom.As long as more time is added, this Marquis can quickly expand his power and carry out rebellion, so as to reverse the decay of our Great Imperial Kingdom. "

Hearing this, Concubine Lu Jishu was quite surprised that Zhu Haoran's corruption was actually for the purpose of plotting rebellion: "Master Zhu is worthy of being Lord Zhu, even corruption can be so justified. For the sake of the people of the world As for corruption, Lord Zhu Hou is probably the first one in history, right?"

Zhu Haoran said in a straight voice: "Corruption is a helpless act. In this smoky country, the only way to save the country is through corruption. I have a clear conscience! Unfortunately, my years of hard work still fall short , I was actually noticed by the concubine Shu. This Marquis has always been extremely careful in doing things, I don’t know where I gave my feet?"

Concubine Lu Jishu said: "Master Zhu, you really hid very deeply. You have always been upright and upright. Everyone thinks you are a good official. An official with thick eyebrows and big eyes like you, this Palace I didn't expect you to be corrupt. Eunuch Hai has been investigating for a long time, but he didn't find any problems with you. If it wasn't for the people in the Xiyang District of the capital to report, you really wouldn't be able to catch Lord Zhu?"

"People from Xiyang District?" Zhu Haoran frowned slightly, "Did the people from Xiyang District report this Marquis?"

Concubine Luji Shu said: "That's right, it was because of the reports from the people in the Xiyang District that we followed the vines and found out the relationship network of corrupt officials in the capital, and also found out about Shuhou's Mansion."

Hearing this, Zhu Haoran suddenly burst into a wry smile: "Unexpectedly, I, Zhu Haoran, spent my whole life as a citizen, but in the end, I died at the hands of the masses. It's really ironic! What a crowd in Xiyang District, hahaha!"

"Master Zhu, your intention to conspire against us is a capital crime." Concubine Lu Ji Shu said, "But seeing that you have made great military exploits for the imperial country, I can forgive you. As long as you put the corrupt Handing over all the novels will give you a way to survive."

"A way to live? Hahahaha!" Zhu Haoran laughed wildly, looking down at the officials around him, "Where is there a way to survive in the current imperial kingdom? Officials are obsessed with power and beauty, they don't seek the truth, they only know how to fool the people, tell me, where is it?" The way to survive? The imperial kingdom is hopeless, if people like this Marquis die, then all of you will be buried with them, hahahaha!"

Concubine Lu Ji's eyes were fixed: "Zhu Haoran, where is your corrupt novel hidden?"

Zhu Haoran smiled and said: "This Marquis embezzled so many novels just to reduce the power of the imperial court. I wish I could tear you parasites of the imperial kingdom to pieces. How could I return these novels to you?"

"Since you don't eat or drink a toast, don't blame me for being cruel." Concubine Lu Ji Shu said, "Come here!"

"Yes!"

Jin Shuwei understood and prepared to torture Zhu Haoran.

A Jin Shuwei took out a dagger, walked up to Zhu Haoran, swung it violently, and cut off a finger on Zhu Haoran's left hand.

call out!
A severed finger fell to the ground, and blood sprayed out.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Chengsheng, Minister of the Book Department, Wang Minghai, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, Guo Linde, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and other officials all changed their expressions in fright.

"Hahahaha!"

Hearty laughter resounded in the hall, and Zhu Haoran laughed loudly, "To torture me with such petty tricks is to despise me too much. I am a hero in life, and a hero in death! I, Zhu Haoran, have no shame in my life, and I would rather stand Even if you die, you will never drag yourself out to live..."

call out!
Jin Shuwei slashed across with his dagger, and another severed finger fell to the ground, gurgling blood splashed down, and a large amount of blood red flowed.

"You Jin Shuwei don't know anything else besides cutting people's fingers?" Zhu Haoran asked with a smile.

Without further ado, Jin Shuwei cut off Zhu Haoran's fingers, his ears, his nose, and his abdomen...

"Hahahaha!" Zhu Haoran, whose face was covered with blood, laughed again, and said to Jin Shuwei, "Little brother, you have to be careful. If you continue to cut like this, Ben Hou may die at any time. You also know that Ben How valuable is Hou's life, if you kill me, you may be buried with me, so you must be careful when you cut, don't cut the wrong part."

Hearing this, Jin Shuwei's heart tightened, and his hands couldn't help shaking. If Zhu Haoran was really killed, the Concubine Shu might indeed blame him.

"Zhu Haoran, if you don't tell the whereabouts of the novel, I will eunuch you!" At this time, Concubine Lu Ji Shu said coldly.

"Hahaha, small tricks, do you think the Marquis would care?" Zhu Haoran said indifferently.

"Come on, do it!"

"Yes."

After finishing speaking, Jin Shuwei swung the dagger out, and cut towards the important part below Zhu Haoran's navel.

call out!
The knife flashed, and Zhu Haoran's crotch was instantly stained red with blood.

Seeing this, the officials present were all trembling with fright. Now Zhu Haoran had his fingers, ears, nose, life-roots and other parts cut off.

However, Zhu Haoran still straightened his chest, standing as firmly as Mount Tai. The severe pain made his body start to tremble, but he clenched his teeth and said, "Even if you kill me, you will never know the whereabouts of the novel!"

Seeing this, Lu Jishu concubine secretly sighed, Chidan Shuhou Zhu Haoran really regarded death as home, and it seemed impossible to force him to tell the whereabouts of the novel.

If you can't find Zhu Haoran's corruption-corruption novels, robot research and development will take more time...

Swish!
At this time, an eunuch hurried into the hall.

"Concubine Shu, good news!" The eunuch said urgently, "I just received an anonymous report from the people in the Xiyang District of the capital. Someone has discovered the place where Master Zhu's books are stored."

Zhu Haoran was slightly taken aback.

Concubine Lu Ji Shu asked with concern: "Where are the books stored?"

The eunuch said truthfully: "According to the information provided by the people in Xiyang District, Lord Zhu's corrupt novels are stored in the cemetery of the Hulong Mountain Range..."

Zhu Haoran's face suddenly changed.

"The cemetery in the Hulong Mountain Range?" Concubine Lu Jishu said, "The people in the Xiyang District have made great contributions this time. Eunuch Hai, immediately send someone to the Hulong Mountain Range to move all of Zhu Haoran's embezzled novels back to the palace. "

"Yes."

Eunuch Hai led Jin Shuwei to leave in a hurry.

Zhu Haoran's feet suddenly went limp, and he slumped on the floor.

"Come here, take Master Zhu and others into the sky prison."

"Yes."

……

Five hours later.

In the middle of the night, news came from the palace that Jin Shuwei successfully found Zhu Haoran's collection of books in the cemetery of the Hulong Mountain Range, with a volume of about 4800 million.

All these books were moved into the palace that night.

Including other corrupt-official-corruption-corruption novels, the total number of novels collected by the palace has reached 22000 million, which is only 25000 million short of 3000 million.

Novelists all over the country are desperately writing novels, and they can write about 600 million novels a day. Therefore, it only takes about 5 days to collect 25000 million novels.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

It is only a matter of time before the robot AlphaGo produces intelligence...
