Chapter 1397: Elder Ye Ji (1)
What was supposed to come had come. The director was right. All the variables would change this winter … Xu Qi ‘an sighed in his heart.
He wasn’t surprised by this result at all. After all, he had been mentally prepared for this day.
Yunzhou would rebel sooner or later, and it would be this winter. So for Xu Qi ‘an, this news was as natural as the change of the sun and the moon.
‘I’ll quickly complete the agreement with the Nine-Tailed Fox and remove the demon sealing nails as much as possible. Only then will I be able to recover my strength and deal with more changes. Hmm, I wonder what Fu Xiang’s true form looks like, is it beautiful?”
Xu Qi ‘an took out a plan from the fragment of the nether world Book, on which his goals were clearly planned.
“We’ll have to put aside the matter of resurrecting the Lord of Wei. In any case, I can’t find the singing gold stone now, and without it, I can’t refine the soul beckoning Banner’s main pole ……”
He made appropriate adjustments to the plan, then waved at mu nanzhi.
“Let me see the” Dafeng geographical record.””
Mu nanzhi had bought the Dafeng geography book herself. Like a woman who was going on a trip, she had bought a geography book in high spirits and would open her eyes to look at the relevant folk customs and specialties wherever she went.
“The southern border is also within Da Feng’s territory.”
Mu Nanxi mumbled in confusion. She took out a crumpled book from her small bag and threw it over.
He didn’t care about his books at all … Xu Qi ‘an reached out to catch it and opened the ” geography of Dafeng. the reason why he wanted to read this book was that it drew a very simple map of the Central Plains.
It was so simple that the thirteen continents of Da Feng became irregular squares.
“Yunzhou is near the sea, and the northern region is mostly connected to Qingzhou. If Xu Pingfeng wanted to use Yunzhou as his base to attack the capital, he had to take over Qingzhou.
“If the Imperial court wants to gain some time to catch its breath, the best way to deal with it is to keep the rebels in Yunzhou.
therefore, the gathering of the influential people will be held in Qingzhou.
In the Royal study.
Emperor Yongxing straightened his back and listened to the quarrels of the ministers in the hall.
When the news that the royal family from 500 years ago claimed the throne in Yunzhou was sent back to the capital, the entire court was shaken.
On the other hand, the Dukes ’emotions were very stable. After all, they had long been mentally prepared. If not for the cold disaster, the Imperial court would have taken the initiative to attack the South.
But to the entire officialdom, and even to the people, it was a severe warning.
Since the end of the capital inspection year, Da Feng had experienced one major event after another, including the destruction of the witchcraft cult’s Army, the death of the previous emperor, the cold disaster, and now the rebellion in Yunzhou.
Even the common people realized that the world was not peaceful, and chaos was imminent, causing great panic.
As for the scholars and the low-ranking officials of the capital, their panic and indignation were even greater.
In the past few days, the students of Jing high school had held many cultural meetings, inviting friends to discuss the matter of the rebels in Yunzhou and the situation in the Central Plains.
“Your Majesty, the rebels of Yunzhou have become the Emperor and shocked the entire court. However, few people know about the Buddhism supporting the rebels, but paper can’t cover fire, which is a great hidden danger.”
The Ministry of War said in a low voice.
Everyone’s expression was grave. Their former allies had turned against each other and become enemies. This would undoubtedly intensify the panic.
The power of Buddhism was a fact that even ordinary people could deeply understand.
A group of rebels who claimed to be descendants of the imperial family from 500 years ago claimed to be the Emperor in Yunzhou and gained the support of Buddhism. If this news were to spread, it would cause the world to doubt the Imperial court and the imperial family of Da Feng.
Although such doubts would not cause any problems for the time being, at most, there would be criticism in the market and in the countryside. However, once the situation was unfavorable, these criticisms and doubts would ferment.
When the commoners joined the enemy, they would not have any psychological burden.
After all, they were still Da Feng’s people and had even thrown their lot in with the Orthodox.
In the future, if the rebels really overthrew the current imperial court, the people might not even be able to raise the banner of restoring Da Feng.
Since ancient times, all instigators and instigators had paid great attention to having a good cause.
This was the reason.
The Minister of Justice said in a deep voice, ”
the only way is to stop the spread of rumors. Anyone who creates panic, spreads rumors, and talks about this matter will be imprisoned and punished.
Such a method only treated the symptoms but not the root of the problem. The rumors had to be suppressed.
Countless examples in history had proven that rumors were the best weapon to attack the heart. If left unchecked, it would be the same as handing the knife to the enemy.
Although the officials felt that the Minister of Justice’s plan was a bad one, it was also the best one at the moment.
When Emperor Yongxing heard this, he smiled and said, ”
“There’s no need to do this. It’s better to disperse than to block. Since paper can’t cover the fire, then we’ll take the initiative to make this matter public. This can show the confidence of the court. Let my people know that I’m not afraid of Buddhism, and the Imperial court is not afraid of the Western regions.”
This … The Dukes looked at each other, thinking that this was not in line with the emperor’s steady and conservative style of doing things.
The Minister of Justice frowned and couldn’t help but look at chief advisor Wang, who had a calm expression.
“Your Majesty, do you have any good countermeasures?”
Emperor Yongxing glanced at the Lords and saw that they lowered their heads slightly and put on a listening posture. Occasionally, they would look up at him. Although they quickly lowered their heads, the thirst in their eyes was undisguisable.
The smile on his face widened, and he felt a sense of satisfaction from controlling the Imperial court.
“Not bad!” Emperor Yongxing said slowly,
“Not long ago, Xu Qi ‘an fought with the witchcraft sect, the rebels of Yunzhou, and the Buddhist sect in Jianzhou. He killed two Vajra Warriors. Now, the Buddhist sect no longer had a Guardian Vajra.
“This is Xu yinluo’s great victory, and it is also a great victory for our dynasty.”
The Imperial study fell silent, and everyone was moved.
“Your Majesty, is, is this true?”
The Imperial censor of the left, Liu Hong, said in shock. He had asked the question that everyone had been wondering about.
Although all the people present were scholars and could only hold the brush with their hands, they were also at the peak of power and were no strangers to The Guardian Vajra of Buddhism.
Guardian Vajra, grade three!
What was the concept of rank-3?
Now, in great Feng, there was only one rank-3 martial artist, Xu Qi ‘an, to hold the fort.
Emperor Yongxing nodded,
“This news will spread in the Jian province very soon. It can’t be fake.”
For the Emperor to say it in such an occasion, the information must be irrefutable.
It was as if the Dukes could hear the wild thumping in their chests, and the surprise and shock on their faces were difficult to suppress.
