MTL - There’s A Beauty-Chapter 80 King
Zhao Youcai wanted to go to Youyou a few days later, so it was better to find out exactly what happened when he was put into the palace. But as soon as he walked away, his hind feet fainted, and when he opened his eyes, he found himself lying on a road that could not be seen. The sides were full of thorns and flowers on the other side, surrounded by bustling and rushing crowds.
He tried to stand up, only to find that he had heavy tortures on his neck and limbs, and could only push his legs as hard as a dying animal.
Someone found his strange shape and whispered, "Oh, what evil did you make before this life? When you came to Huangquan Road, you were still wearing shackles and shackles. How can you get to the ghost gate?"
"If you can't get there, you will die on the road." Someone answered.
Huangquan Road, Ghost Gate off? Only then did Zhao Youcai realize that he was dead. He struggled twice in vain, trying to get the attention of passers-by, but everyone was eager to reincarnate. No one was willing to lend a helping hand. Several undead suspected that he was blocking the way and kicked his feet severely.
Even if a person dies, the soul can feel pain, otherwise the torture of the eighteen floors of **** will be meaningless. Zhao Youcai was bitter after being stabbed in the abdomen, intermittently moaning and moaning. Several ghosts escorted a vicious ghost who passed by, and when he saw him, he couldn't help but be shocked. "What crime did this man commit? How can he wear King Luo's soul lock?"
"What is the Soul Lock?" Li Gui, also wearing torture, asked curiously.
"Soul lock, a pound a day, if there is no key to open, even if it becomes a dead soul, it will be crushed to death." Guicha explained.
It is Zhao Youcai who never expected to suffer even if he died. He tried his best to ask, "Ghosts will die?"
The ghosts laughed for a while, scornfully, "Ghosts die naturally. Ghosts die, but they go to Hell's prison. Eighteen levels of **** are terrible, but they are nothing compared to Hell's prison. There, there are karma and blood pools all over the world, but there is nothing to say about reincarnation, let alone escape. You look like you can't come to the gate of the ghost gate, waiting for the demon head of the prison to collect you Let's go ahead. "
The ghosts gradually dispersed, and they could hear the gloating laughter as they went out. Zhao Youcai, who thought he could be relieved when he died, finally realized that death was the real beginning. If he does not want to remove the soul lock, he will suffer in eternal life.
No, I have to go back to Zhao Youzhen. I can't die, I can't become a puppet! Zhao Youcai didn't know where to come from. One stood up, and then his head fluttered, with Venus in his eyes. Somehow he returned to Yang Shi, and found that he was still lying on the rotten mat, and his father and mother were surrounded by a servant. , Crying very miserably.
"Go to Zhao Youzhen, hurry up!" After a walk in Guimenguan, he finally figured it out and felt that his life was more valuable. Moreover, without the family property and the official position, he searched the officials who had reported his job, and made money back in three to five years. By then, he will have a way to deal with Zhao Youzheng.
"My son, aren't you dead?" The second master and the second wife were horrified, and the servants fled away, yelling at the corpses.
"I walked to the gate of the gate and came back again. Do you know what we wear on our necks? This is King Yan Luo's soul lock, and I can't take it off when I die, so I can add a pound every day to keep you alive. It ’s crushing. Ghost death is a trance, suffering forever and ever, and there is no chance of reincarnation! Dad, mother, we ca n’t even die without this thing! ”He was ashamed and trembling.
The death of the son is strange, not to mention the fact that he has said it for no reason. The second master and the second wife who had been frightened by King Yan Luo for a long time were embarrassed and cried. Zhao Youcai was too lazy to comfort them, but the steward took all the property and went to Zhao Youyi's house. He thought he would be rejected again, but he only waited for a quarter of an hour.
Zhao Youcai lay on a soft chair and was carried in by four servants. As soon as he crossed the threshold, he was shaken suddenly and almost fell. The shackles on his body were only directed at the spirits. They were intangible to others, without weight. In addition, he was so thin and light-weight that this accident should not have happened.
He couldn't hold his heart full of anger and yelled, "Even individuals can't lift it, what do you want? What did you do on weekdays, eat-shit?"
The steward also froze for a while, finally managed to stabilize his body, and then whispered with his ears, "No, Master. Look at the old man in front. He has no heel and no shadow. He is floating!"
Zhao Youcai looked intently, and almost lost his soul. I saw the old man walking slowly, and the second half of the shoe was empty and dragged directly to the ground. Under the light of the lantern, everyone had a stretched shadow, except what was behind him. Are invisible.
This is clearly, this is clearly a ghost! Zhao Youcai finally remembered that here is the ghost house known from the far and near of Dayong State. So far, seventeen or eighteen households have died. Zhao Youzhen is really evil! Not only did King Yan Luo personally help him out, but also ghosts served him as a servant, what exactly was his source?
Zhao Youcai was so furious that he became more and more embarrassed. He gathered up the thick blanket on his body and was afraid to speak. And the servant who carried him also had weak legs and legs. Two wars fought, and he could not help but throw away the owner and fled. After finally walking to the main courtyard, seeing the brightly lit front hall, the people were relieved, and they felt a sense of the rest of their lives.
"The master is inside, you can go in by yourself." The old man shook the lantern in his hand and drifted away slowly.
Zhao Fu steward nodded and sent away the other side, while meditating "Amitabha Buddha" in his heart. When the group entered the front hall, they saw Yu Yan sitting on the top, holding a translucent glass jar, playing with stuffed beetles of various colors, which looked very sultry. Several maids came and went to tea, and several babies set up tables and chairs, and the heels did not touch the floor, and there was no oblique shadow to follow.
Ghosts, a room full of ghosts! The second room of the Zhao family, together with the servants they brought, was now dying and almost collapsed. Only the steward still kept a little clear, carefully looked at the legs and figure of the young master, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. But soon, his heart hung up again. A living person lives in a house full of ghosts, but is still unharmed and relaxed, doesn't it mean that the other party is more terrible than the ghosts? It seems that there is really no room for maneuver about the family property.
This was not only thought of the steward, but also Zhao Youcai and his father and mother. They gave up their struggles and took out the deeds and land deeds, explained them one by one, and said that they would move out of the old house as soon as possible.
"Look at my nephew, we have returned this property, are you writing a reconciliation book for us?" The second master looked anxiously.
"The reconciliation can be written for you, but it must be replaced with a confession. Explain in detail how you invaded the property of the big house and how you persecuted 'Zhao Youyi'. If there are any inaccuracies, you still have to take them back. You see it, I'm doing fine now. It doesn't matter if there are any of these properties.
He is now the one who has found his master. If he wants to be promoted all the time, he must pay special attention to his reputation. If you write a reconciliation book, the second-family family bites a bite, saying that they murdered their relatives and plundered their wealth, wouldn't it be wrong? With the confession, you can save a lot of worries. Moreover, the death of "Zhao Youzheng" was made by him. It has nothing to do with the second room, and there is no need to kill everyone.
Hearing the last sentence, Zhao Youcai, who had already shown his anger, was like a vented-hearted ball, which suddenly collapsed. Yes, you are worried. He is really prepared to report to the clan after the incident, and then take back the property, which will also destroy You's reputation and career. However, once he wrote his confession, all his calculations would be lost.
Gritting his teeth for a moment, he nodded. "Take the pen and ink, I write." With Qingshan in the back, I was not afraid that there was no wood burning.
As soon as you raised your hand, a girl-in-law fluttered in and arranged the four treasures of the study neatly. Zhao Youcai wrote his confession and gave it to Youzhen for inspection. After reading it, according to the memory of "Zhao Youzheng", he asked him to modify two slightly ambiguous places, and it was only satisfactory to completely expose the evil and malignant situation in the second room. The three pressed the fingerprints and picked three more. Servant as witness.
Everything was properly prepared. He took the family property and keys, and ordered his ancestor to drop off the guests, but he did not move back the next day, but paid for the ghost house and continued to live. Without him, just because it's clean enough here.
The second family and the family immediately burned the book of reconciliation and waited anxiously for a quarter of an hour before they felt that the weight of their shoulders was slowly disappearing, and they couldn't help crying. With no danger to their lives, their temperament also came up, and they were prepared not to leave. It was unexpected that a dozen of ghosts had been sent to collect their houses.
The wicked have their own ghosts, they can't, they have to pack their bags immediately and move out in a bleak manner. The second wife had a lot of silver tickets in her possession. As soon as she stepped out of the door of Zhao's house, her placket was inexplicably pulled open, her belt fell off, and she stood on the street almost naked to watch. She was so anxious that she couldn't find a place to dig into it. Fortunately, the girl responded quickly and found a cloak from the package and put it on her, which alleviated the dilemma.
The second master and Zhao Youcai didn't face each other. They pulled the second wife into the carriage and rushed away. They never noticed that the silver tickets they had stolen had already fallen to the ground, and flew back to Zhao's house with the wind, and automatically Dropped in the cash box. Passing by on the road, shoulder to shoulder, no one noticed this weird scene.
The two-family family found a vacant mansion and wanted to rent it out temporarily, but found that the silver ticket was gone, and the only property left was two-way copper coins and a few boxes of clothes, which were the same as when they came to Zhao's house that year. The landlord saw that they could not take out the silver for a long time and immediately took them away. Unable to do so, the three had to sell two maids to collect the money of the guesthouse.
"Nothing, I still have an official position without silver, and I can make seventy thousand or two thousand in one year. At that time, we will buy another house, which is bigger and more magnificent than Zhao's house." Zhao Youcai vowed.
However, he soon realized that there was no room for him to turn around in his life, and the culprit was still hesitant. He actually brought down Lord Liu and ordered the emperor to thoroughly investigate the purchase and sale of officials by the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Anyone who obtained an official post through the sale channel was summoned to the Ministry of Criminal Investigation for cross-examination. The new emperor did not fire everyone, but let them conduct separate assessments, all of which were related to their duties. Those who pass the assessment can write a review and then go back to continue the mission. Those who fail the examination will be immediately dismissed and investigated.
The new emperor's intention is not to kill everything, but where does the person who donates the official position have that ability? Many of them were excellent, and after they got an errand, they hired staff and public servants to help them, and they just made money from the officials. What's more, when the papers are handed in, they don't even write their names, making a big joke.
By the end of the investigation, eight to nine out of ten were dismissed, and Zhao Youcai was naturally among them. Not only that, the new emperor also announced that starting next year, officials of all ministries will be regularly assessed. The content is not four books and five classics, but related to government affairs. . Anyone who fails will be immediately demoted and immediately dismissed after three failures. There will be no remarks, and the content of future imperial examinations will be changed as appropriate.
If the students of the recent generations had studied eight shares for many years, and suddenly changed the examination questions to be unfair to them, the new emperor intended to execute them immediately.
The officials in Dayong are only going up, how can they be going down, and they are in danger of being dismissed every year. How can everyone bear it? Soon, courtiers united to protest, all were rejected by the new emperor, and under false anger, they handed over false notes and did not go on duty. Instead, they had to see how the emperor himself managed the country.
The new emperor immediately proclaimed the decree and ordered the minions to take over government affairs. In a department, it is these clerks who are really proficient in business. They are equivalent to Shangfeng's employees, who are in charge of affairs. The so-called "move your mouth up and run your legs down" is exactly the same. But the official is a low-ranking member, and the law says: Afterwards, the official is not allowed to participate in the imperial examinations, and he cannot get official positions, but his position can be hereditary. This is equivalent to cutting off their promotion path, which makes many capable people angry.
But now that the emperor has vigorously rectified the administration of the officials, he has also improved the status of the officials. If they win the top spot in the assessment, they can even get rid of their ranks and enter the career path. How can they not be encouraged? When things do naturally, they work harder. When all the officials who had eaten the rice were surprised that the big event was not good, they hurriedly sold off the fake run and went back to the errand, only to find that their rights had already been suspended and become a complete display. They regretted each other, and immediately hired a gentleman to teach their own affairs, lest the assessments be replaced in the next year.
The new emperor's thunder means not only did not cause court turmoil, but caused the six departments to rotate quickly. Almost all government affairs can be properly resolved within the same day, and only those with heavy responsibilities will be reported to the Golden Palace. Using his spear to attack his shield, the new emperor cleverly used the relationship between officials and officials to fight for power, making both of them used by themselves, and they became more and more convenient and efficient.
Youyi has always known that chaos in Dayong can't help the master. After remediating the Ministry, I am afraid that his next move is the Ministry of Household. If he can be transferred to the Ministry, the chance of seeing the master will be great. increase. While he was hoping for the hope, the decree came down. He entered the Ministry of Criminal Affairs and became a duguansilang. From Liupin, he was sentenced to exile, and the officials were abolished, settled, increased, decreased, and served.
Although somewhat unsatisfactory, Anyway's wish to stay in Beijing was fulfilled. Someone put on a new official robe and hurried to the Criminal Department to report. At that time, Ou Tai had taken several officials into the palace and happened to pass him by.
After a brief inquiry, the emperor was preparing to rectify the Ministry of Households. He wanted to set up a department of investigating people from the branches of the ceremonies, officials, workers, soldiers, and the Ministry of Criminal Affairs to investigate the situation of the state treasury's shortfall and recover the money owed. Those people were the capable officials picked by Ou Tai.
Because the first emperor always liked to intercept Cooper's money for his own splurge, the officials below followed suit and borrowed it from the household and never returned it. Even more, the officials guarding the treasury supervised the theft, filled their own pockets, so that the good-looking Dayong Kingdom was pulled into an empty shell. Last time, if the new emperor had opened his own private treasury for disaster relief, there would be more people who had died, and I am afraid that this great river would not be able to keep it.
The Ministry of Households has changed from the emperor's money basket to a money leaker. If there is no remediation, how can we improve people's livelihood, save soldiers, and build a capital? The economy is the same as the rule of the government. This time, the emperor's determination to rectify the household was very firm. Even if a few old ministers collided in protest at the Golden Palace, they only got him a sneer. In his words: how many people can die for the full treasury and strong national power, why not? Whoever wants to die despite crashing, he has prepared a coffin, and everyone in the hall is one person, and no one is indispensable.
The new emperor is so tough and occupies national law. Except for the compromise, Baiguan seems to have no choice. But how can you say that you owe money? The upstart of the court was short in time and owed little, but it was nothing. After years of accumulation, the family giants owe millions of dollars to the households. Once they are pulled out, they are hurting their bones, and even when their homes are broken, they will naturally resist. These people, in turn, have most of the authority, which can be called intricate and leafy. The emperor would have nothing to fear if they moved the ground on their heads, but the people under them would suffer.
Undoubtedly, this is a painstaking effort. Even the most motivated officials in the Ministry of Criminal Affairs have retreated, but they were still arrested by Ou Tai and forced into the palace.
"Master Zhao came one step late and didn't share this shit, it was really good luck." A colleague sighed sincerely. The others nodded and agreed.
Youyou had an expression that was struck by lightning, and asked again and again, "You mean, this is organized by the emperor, personally commanded by the emperor, and is in the palace?"
Would n’t he be able to see the Lord every day if he joined the Anzac Division? Thinking of this, I had a stubborn chest and regrets, and I thought that I should not be greedy. I bought a fresh meat clip on the road, which delayed me for a quarter of an hour. If you take one step early, you will be able to catch up with this trip!
He eagerly said, "What if I want to go too?"
His colleagues looked at him with strange eyes. Once this errand is taken, it is equivalent to offend the eight to nine tenth of the capital. Those people are so clever that everything can be done to stop the investigation. It is trivial to plant the scams, or even assassinate them. Those officials who were invited to the palace were better off being mourned. Why, then, did Master Zhao throw himself into the net?
Sure enough, they are the eyes of the rat, do you think that if you cater to the emperor, you can walk smoothly? I don't see if my neck is stiff enough. Everyone was quite disdainful, but out of a downhole mentality, they came up with ideas for him, "If you chase now, you can still catch up with the European frame. If you don't, you tell the gatekeeper to the gatekeeper, they will Will pass on for you. "
-------
Qianqing Palace-Inside, several adults in Shangshu led four capable officials to meet each other.
Emperor Xuan Guang dropped the memorial and looked up. He first looked at Othai, but he didn't find any figure in his eyes. His eyes were dim, so he looked around. What he needs are officials who are capable, fearless of power, and dare to be a courageous official, but these people obviously do not meet the requirements. They either sweated coldly, or described them as arrogant, or they were frightened, which shows that they were not willing to take the errand.
However, Emperor Xuan Guang can understand their mood. A thorough investigation of the Ministry of Households can be said to be taking the world by storm, and what will be confronted is the pressure of the entire court. He was able to set aside life and death because he knew that no one could kill himself in this world, but how could anyone else have this confidence? After all, I'm afraid of things, and after all, I'm afraid of death.
Emperor Xuan Guang dropped the memorial and sighed. The ministers all bowed their heads and did not dare to squeak. It is conceivable that in the near future, the capital city will surely be a bit of a storm, and it is best to not be involved.
Just then, a guard came in hastily and whispered in Emperor Xuan Guang's ear.
"What are you talking about?" He said in a high tone, slightly surprised.
The guard said again, and at the end he waited quietly for the emperor's life.
Emperor Xuan Guang shook his head in disbelief at first, and then retorted and struck the imperial case. It seemed to be musing, and his dim and unpredictable eyes were getting brighter and hotter. How can you not see the wickedness of that clever head? However, he ran to death, and it was obvious that it was not a joke to say that he had to pursue his own words before.
There is no doubt that he stepped into this Longtan tiger's hole for himself, and also set aside life and death for himself. This little **** is really dead-hearted and has a good heart! Emperor Xuanguang secretly sullen his belly, but his eyes ran down-a strong joy.
He ordered the guard to bring people in, and at last he looked at Ou Tai, "You have a stupid and daring under your hand who actually came to the palace to ask for your own life. Can you guess who it is?"
Ou Taisi hesitated for a moment and hesitated, "Can it be Zhao Youzheng and Zhao Langzhong?" Looking at Dayong, the person who is most afraid of death is probably the master, who will let him have King Yan Luo as his backer?
Emperor Xuanguang sighed and said, "Exactly! If my Dayong officials are as worried about the country and the people as they are like Zhao Langzhong, they will worry about their country, and worry about their country.
Some people took the initiative to die for them, but the ministers did not welcome it, and they all agreed. During the talk, Youyi has quickly stepped into the main hall, first eagerly glanced at the master, and then bowed down on her knees, saying, "This time, you have to take down the errand anyway, or you can get the moon near the water tower." 2k novel reading network
