Chapter 1057

I don't know when, small snowflakes from the air are falling on the earth.

Looking up at the gray sky, Xiao Ming felt that another year had passed for him, and this was also his 15th year in the world. According to the modern calendar, it should be the end of 1714. Unconsciously, more than ten years had passed since the 18th century.

”Thank you for your mother's care and keep it in mind. "Facing the worried eyes of the princess, Xiao Ming said with relief.

In any era, change requires great courage, because it will inevitably damage the interests of some groups, but if it does not damage their interests, the interests of the Empire will suffer serious losses.

Xiao Ming doesn't know that his decree will make the conflict between him and the powerful even more intense. But if he doesn't take decisive measures, all he has done for the Empire these years will be to make wedding clothes for others.

From modern times, he has experienced the ups and downs of contemporary powers, and the Soviet Union, once a pole of the world, has disintegrated into the past. This shows that powerful force and advanced technology are not panacea.

The most important thing is the stability of the imperial system to ensure that there is no chaos within the Empire.

But what Wang Chengye is doing now is a time bomb. As the people of the Empire become more and more enlightened, this distinction between the high and the low is bound to cause a lot of trouble. It is precisely seeing this that he will take decisive measures.

Because let the situation continue to develop, the war between the powerful and the poor will be inevitable. In this case, it is better to weaken the various rights of the nobility and finally solve the contradiction gently.

However, as the princess said, in this way, he would have to bear the discontent and resentment from the nobility.

Dingding looks at Xiao Ming, and Princess Zhenfei sighs, because she can see that Xiao Ming is just dealing with her, and he will carry it out in the end.

Gently shook to shake head, she pulls Fei Yue son to turn round to leave.

Seeing them leave, Xiao Ming's brows spread a little. At this time, Qian Dafu said, "the emperor, what the Empress Dowager said is not unreasonable. From now on, the emperor should be careful. After all, this time, the emperor has to deal with a large group of people, not someone."

After clenching his fist, Xiao Ming walked out of the door and bathed himself in the cold wind. He said in a loud voice: "I rose up in the land of six impoverished states. I fought South and North and killed countless people. Now the throne is killed in a sea of blood. I have killed the Golden tent khanate, Korea and Japan. Are you afraid that I can't kill those little people? They'd better not provoke me, or I'll let them know what hell is on earth. "

Qian Dafu was shocked by Xiao Ming's words. Looking at the more and more mature emperor in front of him, his heart was boiling.

"The emperor is right. He hasn't been afraid of anyone for more than ten years!"

With a sneer on his lips, Xiao Ming said to Qian Dafu, "let Lu Fei and Cui Shangan come to see me immediately. "

QIAN Dafu's heart sank. He understood that Xiao Ming was going to arrange ahead of time this time. If there was going to be any trouble, the muzzle of the imperial army would have to be aimed at these riotous nobles.

Responding to the call, Qian Dafu immediately entered the telegraph room and sent telegrams to Lu Fei and Cui Shangan respectively.

……

Wang's courtyard.

Not long after Ge Yiren left, there was a burst of heartbreaking crying, and all the people around were attracted by the movement.

Zhu 56's new home is just opposite the Wang's courtyard. After hearing the crying, he went to the Wang's home.

Wang Chengye and Zhu Wuliu often walk around each other. They can be said to be acquaintances.

”What's the matter? What happened? "Zhu Wu Liu went to the place where the Wang family was and looked into the room. He was suddenly in a cold sweat.

It turned out that there was a man hanging on the beam at this time, not someone else, but Wang Chengye, Minister of rites. Zhu Wuliu was scared out in a cold sweat.

"Wang Ze, what's the matter?" Zhu 56 stammered, obviously scared. A minister of rites committed suicide at home, which was a great event.

Wang Ze, the eldest son of Wang Chengye, knelt and cried in front of the door. He sobbed and said, "after returning home, my father was in a trance. He just said that the Ministry of rites was gone. He was a sinner through the ages. The Emperor didn't give the Wang family any way to live. Later, we found out that he was dismissed by the emperor and his official Fu was removed. Later, he asked me to bring a pot of wine to accompany him He had a few drinks, but when I came back with the wine, he hanged himself... "

Understanding the cause and effect, Zhu Wuliu sighed and said, "well, it's not that bad. It's been several years since Yu Ming was dismissed by the emperor. Now he's still fine. Why bother? Maybe the emperor was in a good mood and was called back. "

Wang Zetong cried:" my father has always been extremely good-looking and extreme. He must be extremely resentful when he was humiliated by the emperor. I should have thought of that "

what else did Zhu Wu Liu want to say, but when he opened his mouth, he found that he could not say anything. He could not blame the emperor for dismissing Wang Chengye. After all, it was a government. As a businessman, he didn't have to mix blindly. Otherwise, although he had a big family and a big business, he couldn't stand the crushing of the emperor's little finger.After a few words of consolation, Zhu Wu and Liu turned and left. At this time, the officials who were shocked came to Wang's house one after another. When they saw Wang Chengye hanged himself, they were all quite moved.

Zhu Wuliu understood the cause and effect. Although he sympathized with Wang Chengye's death, he strongly supported the emperor's decision.

Although he is now a wealthy family in Qingzhou, his children will still be bullied by these aristocrats in school.

After all, scholars, agriculture, industry and commerce only made the four classes equal in the law, but they can still feel it clearly in their daily thoughts.

Besides, Wang Chengye is a talented person who has read a lot of poems and books, but his son Wang Ze is a true prodigal son. If such a person is an official, the local people will surely be harmed.

Back at home, Zhu's wife, the Song family, came over and asked, "what's the matter across here? Crying and howling, with dead dad yes? "

sitting down and having a cup of tea, Zhu Wuliu, who was thinking about this, spat out the tea and said with a smile," you can say for sure that Wang Ze's father is dead. "

After that, he talked about the whole story.

The Song family sighed: "it's said that the companion is like a tiger. Today, it's true. No wonder our elder brother says it's not easy to be a servant beside the emperor."

"Of course, the emperor holds the power of life and death in the world. Whoever he wants to die will die, and whoever he wants to live will live. Wang Chengye asked for it himself. He makes the emperor unhappy. Can the emperor make him happy?"
