Chapter 522 Liquidation

As a general, Liang Yunting did not want to be loyal to the country, but wanted to conspire to rebel and usurp power and seize the throne. This was a terrible evil man!The imperial edict ordered the department to detain it, and five days later, the punishment of storm was executed.Kill the nine clans and search the house!Xu Shunlong continued.

The officials below were slightly shocked when they heard this. I don’t know whether Liang Yunting forced the palace to usurp the throne, but the new emperor’s methods were really powerful. He killed nine clans, confiscated the house and asked for the death. Just look at these, you will know what hatred the new emperor had towards Liang Yunting.

However, everyone had expected this matter in their minds and would not say much. Just let Xu Shunlong make trouble. Anyway, Liang Yunting died, so it had nothing to do with him.

But next, Xu Shunlong issued six decrees to remove all the officials close to Liang Yunting from office, or investigate them, or to take action.

This series of measures immediately caused panic among everyone.

This is clearly going to settle the score after autumn.

He promoted several of his confidants to the stage in succession. Xu Shunlong felt proud and easily dealt with the court affairs a few times and immediately announced his retirement.

With the company of several eunuchs and palace maids, Xu Shunlong walked slowly backwards.

The harem is still the same, but Xu Shunlong's mood is very different. When he came to this harem, he had to be careful and keep a low profile.

Now he is the master of the family. When he comes here again, he feels refreshed and full of royal majesty everywhere. Even the palace maids accompanying him seem to be a little more beautiful.

All the eunuchs who were with him in the former crown prince's mansion were attained. After he was enlightened, he followed him into the palace, drove all the old men down and controlled all the positions.

These eunuchs were often by Xu Shunlong's side. When they saw Xu Shunlong enjoying the beautiful scenery in the garden, they were spinning around the palace maids with their eyes, and immediately understood what this person was thinking.

The eunuch smiled and came over and said, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty. Everyone in the world has welcomed a hero. In the future, Your Majesty will surely ride the wind and waves and create an unprecedented foundation."

Haha, you are just sweet-mouthed.Xu Shunlong raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "You will be a good job in the future."

Thank you, Your Majesty, I am not sure how many blessings I have cultivated.The eunuch laughed and said, however, there is a saying that I don’t know if I should say it.

Say it.I forgive you for not guilty.Xu Shunlong waved his hand casually.

Your Majesty, you are the lord of the world now, but this harem is a bit thin.The eunuch said that according to the clan system, it should be set up with the three palaces and six courtyards.The harem is now weak. Not only will your Majesty have a bad face, but it will not benefit the continuation of the royal family's descendants in the future.As the saying goes, the imperial family is selfless, and your descendants are also related to the stability of the world.

This... Xu Shunlong nodded pretendingly. In fact, the eunuch's words had already been said to him. It's okay to be a child or something. He likes wine and sex by nature. When he was the prince, Xuan Wen was pressing him on it, and Liang Yunting was staring at his faults, which made him a little more honest.

Now that Xuanwen has collapsed, Liang Yunting has also been taken down by him. Once the constraints around him are released, his little thoughts will naturally become a little wild.

you mean?Xu Shunlong asked in a low voice.

The eunuch naturally knew Xu Shunlong’s thoughts. If Xu Shunlong couldn’t understand such a straightforward hint, he wouldn’t have to be the emperor anymore. He just wanted to let himself speak.

However, although the eunuch cursed a few times in his heart, he didn't dare to bring it out. He had a flattering smile on his face and whispered: Your Majesty, according to the ancestral system, you have to have three palaces and six courtyards. Why not take this opportunity to choose a group of beautiful women to fill the harem?

This... Although Xu Shunlong was quite moved, he was not a fool. Naturally, he knew that Xuan Wen was in a new mourning and was not the time when he was enlisting the girl in the palace. So he shook his head and said: Inappropriate, the late emperor has just passed away. If I am so anxious, I will expand the harem. How do people in the world think of me?Am I an unfaithful person?

The eunuch sneered in his heart. He was Xu Shunlong's attendant. Although he didn't know so much about the matter this time, he knew more or less some inside information.

Xu Shunlong has long been unfaithful and unfair, and now he is just a show.

But at most he thought about this in his heart and dared not say it even if he died.

Your Majesty, this matter is actually easy to deal with.The eunuch laughed in a low voice, although we cannot choose girls to enter the palace, it is not difficult for His Majesty to find a few delighted people to fill the harem.Don’t Your Majesty have a few beautiful people you love?Before, in order to avoid the blame from the First Emperor, they hid outside.Now you are His Majesty, this...

Xu Shunlong's eyes lit up and he nodded slightly.

This eunuch said it well. Although he could not choose a girl to enter the palace with great fanfare, it was not difficult to find a few delighted people to come in.

I secretly brought it into the palace and stay with me first. Isn’t it enough to give them a title until the mourning period is over?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of someone, a person far away in Lanhu.The one who has always been obsessed with me!

On the west side of the capital, Maliu Hutong.

This is where civilians live in the capital. There are many noble people in the capital, so the places where they live are naturally divided into different levels. The first-class people live in the Forbidden City, which is convenient for both the upper and lower courts.

Those who almost live a little outside are all ordinary officials. Although they are at least at the level of a prefect when released, the most desirable thing in this capital is to be officials, so they can only live here.

There are also some poor people who live in the east of the city. The place is not very good and no one wants to go there.

The remaining ordinary people live in the west of the city. Although they are ordinary people, they often stay at the feet of the emperor. They have some political awareness. Anyone who can easily tell the government affairs.

The most common one here is a teahouse, where you can often see groups of people gathering together, drinking tea and eating snacks while chatting about interesting things from the court.

Now that the emperor is mourning, every family is filial to him, and the teahouse is less lively than before.There were no customers, and even the shopkeeper and the guy looked listless and lay drowsy.

The shopkeeper, give me two taels of fennel beans.Just then, someone stood in the teahouse and shouted.

When he heard a customer coming to the door, the shopkeeper raised his head and rubbed his eyes.

I saw that there was an extra person in the teahouse. This man was an old man, bent down and wearing a gray robe, and his washing was a little white.

His face was full of wrinkles, and he stood there as if he would be blown away by the wind at any time.

Oh, Lu Xiucai, why do you want two liang of fennel beans today?The shopkeeper said with a smile, and as he said, he wrapped two liang of fennel beans. Didn’t they always ask for four liang before?

I've been tight lately.The Lu Xiucai laughed bitterly. It would be good to eat two taels of fennel beans.As he said that, he took the two taels of fennel beans from the shopkeeper and walked out of the teahouse tremblingly.

This Lu Xiucai is an old neighbor nearby, and I don’t know how long I have lived here.

It is said that I took the exam for the status of a scholar twenty years ago, but over the past twenty years, the identity of this scholar has never changed.

If this scholar can still have some status outside, there are so many officials in this capital city like dogs.

This scholar is even more worthless, and I feel embarrassed to tell others to take it out.

However, this scholar is well-known nearby, and anyone with any family matters is willing to discuss it with him.

Moreover, Lu Xiucai also wrote letters to others and did not charge any money. He just wanted to help his neighbors, so he had a bit of reputation nearby.

This Lu Xiucai has a habit of eating some fennel beans and drinking some wine when he is free. He has to buy some beans in this teahouse every day, and then go to the tavern across the street to make some wine.

It's been so hard that I can't stop for many years.

However, in recent times, Lu Xiucai didn't know what happened. He made less wine every day, and he also wanted two taels less beans than before.

Although the shopkeeper was strange, he didn't take it to heart, just thinking that this Lu Xiucai was tight.

Carrying the fennel beans and the two-point wine they received, Lu Xiucai walked back. No matter from any perspective, this person was a trembling old scholar in his twilight years.

Just as he turned into an alley, suddenly a figure appeared in front of him.

Lu Xiucai didn't even raise his head, holding the wine and fennel beans, preparing to bypass the person who suddenly appeared and continue moving forward.

Mr. Lu, please stay.The man stretched out a hand to block his way and said.

Ah!Lu Xiucai looked up in confusion and saw only a person he didn't know stood in front of him.

A smile appeared on his face and nodded gently. Sir, what kind of reason is there to do?

Mr. Lu, I’m lucky to know... The man was dressed in Taoism and had an unfathomable smile on his face. Is Ning Zhenzi, have you admired Mr.’s name for a long time?

Recognize my name for a long time?Lu Xiucai looked confused. What kind of name do I have? I have been taking the imperial examination for more than 20 years and didn’t even pass the imperial examination. My little reputation was only spread among neighbors. Where is the name Ah?

Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu Jingxuan.The Taoist priest smiled and said inexplicably, of course, not many people know the reputation of this little scholar, but I have long relied on this title of leader Liu.

Willow, what willow?Lu Xiucai was still confused, is it a tree?What does that have to do with me?
