Chapter 139 Crossing the Line

At night, it was dark and terrifying.

I don’t know how many people in Daxing City are excited, tossing and turning and unable to sleep.

As we estimated, discussed and gritted our teeth, all the topics were inseparable from Imperial Bank and the Dean Wang Yang You.

And Yang You, the master of the people, slept heartlessly.

The five-tone clapper sounded, indicating that it was already the fifth day.

Yang You reluctantly opened her eyes and groped to get up. Today is the day of morning court again.

For Yang You, who has traveled for half a year, is already familiar with the complex court suits. He flips his fingers and puts the clothes on his body in an orderly manner.

After a while, the court uniform was already in place.

After a simple washing, Yang You wiped his face and hands.

When I opened the door, a cold air came to my face.

"Your Highness, King Dai!"

Outside the bedroom, Wang Xi led the palace maids and eunuchs from Daxing City to salute.

"Get up!" Yang You said disrespectfully.

"Your Highness, King Xie Dai!" everyone replied.

Yang You looked at the sky. The sky in the east had just turned white and covered with clouds. It seemed that the weather would not be very good today.

"Let's go!"

Yang You breathed a breath and walked towards his own specially made four-wheeled carriage.

Wang Xi reached out and lifted the curtain of the car. A palace maid presented her foot stool and tried her best. Yang You boarded the prepared four-wheeled carriage.

The stove in the car emitted a dark red light and a hint of warmth. The temperature in the entire car was suitable. Yang You lay comfortably on the soft couch and began to sleep.

Since the appearance of the four-wheeled carriage, attending court has no longer been a difficult task for the ministers.

The wide four-wheeled carriage, with a soft couch inside, lying on the side of the carriage, lit the stove, which is not only warm and comfortable, but also many times faster than before when I was sitting in a sedan chair.

Ministers who are far away from the imperial city can set out in advance, fall on the soft couch and take a comfortable rest, and then arrive at Daxing Palace.

The rise of four-wheeled carriages can be said to have greatly reduced the number of late arrivals in the morning court. For this reason, Ping Honggui, the Minister of Works, was extremely proud and boasted about his achievements whenever he met everyone.

As usual, Yang You arrived the last time. Seeing that everyone was busy, she did not want to alarm the ministers, so she quietly entered the chamber of conventions.

After a while, after the ministers finished their own work, they were the time to discuss matters as usual.

"You are the Highness of the King of Dai, and the people in Daxing City are in panic at present. I also ask Your Highness of the King of Dai to decide." Cui Pijia, the attendant of the Sanqi cavalry, went out and said.

After Cui Bijia finished speaking, he immediately attracted many ministers to agree. The biggest problem in Daxing City is that rumors are everywhere.

Cui Pijia was about fifty years old, with a thin face and looked very old-fashioned. In Yang You's memory, when Li Yuan conquered Daxing City, Cui Pijia and the Yinshi Master of the Guyi, Li Renzheng refused to surrender to Li Yuan and was killed by Li Yuan.

Thinking of this, Yang You couldn't help but look at the Tongzhi Sanqin General Li Renzheng behind Cui Pijia.

"What are the countermeasures for Lord Li!" Yang You asked.

Li Renzheng is young and light, about forties, with black hair and beautiful beard.

When Li Renzheng heard His Highness Dai asked him for advice, he looked surprised and his thoughts changed sharply. Could it be that his loyalty was finally discovered by His Highness Dai?

After a while, he found that His Highness Wang and the civil and military officials in the court were looking at him. He quickly calmed down. Li Renzheng said: "The Liang army has only been on the rise for a month, and has been attacking from Diaoyin. The soldiers are already exhausted and have no power to fight again. As long as the imperial army arrives, the Liang army will definitely retreat, and the rumors in Daxing City will dissipate."

Many court officials also nodded. This time, Dai Wang Chao was cruel and sent out 50,000 troops at once, and the famous general Yin Shishi led the troops.

There is no reason why Daxing City has sufficient food and supplies for 50,000 to 13,000, with three times the advantage of military strength.

Moreover, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers in Daxing City has long been reflected in the process of suppressing bandits. Now all the civil servants in Daxing City believe that these rioters are vulnerable.

As for the overwhelming bandits in other places, it is their incompetence. Haven’t you seen how smooth the bandit suppression in Guanzhong area is?

In fact, all the ministers were not too worried about Liang Shidu, and some even thought that sending 50,000 troops was a bit of a big deal.

However, they did not expect that behind every bandit suppression, there was a shadow of the Dai Wang Yangyou, and the military pay and policy were strongly supported.

"Mr. Li said very much. As long as the imperial army wins, all rumors will disappear." Yang You nodded.

"General Yin, has the rectification of the imperial army been completed?" Yang You looked at Yin Shishi.

"Report to His Highness, all the food, grass and supplies are ready, and you can set out tomorrow." Yin Shishi Master stepped forward to protect the fist.

Today is the last time the Yinshi Master went to court before his expedition. Sang Xianhe had already traveled lightly and set out in advance to protect his skin.

The Yinshi Division took a longer time to lead the remaining 40,000 troops and horses, and has been dragged until now.

"Okay! The King of Japan will definitely see the army off in Ming Dynasty." Yang Youxi said.

"I wish General Yin a victory in his flag and success." The court officials congratulated him one after another.

"Thank you!" Master Yin Shi returned the favor.

The whole morning court was in harmony, and then the discussion went very smoothly. Yang You handed over the dominance to Wei Wensheng, and he hurried to the throne and continued to doze off.

When the first ray of sunlight broke through the cumulus clouds and shone into the hall through the window lattice, the time was almost over and the morning court could end.

Only then did Yang You stretch and prepare to go back and continue to sleep.

"I have reported to Your Highness the King of Dai, and I have to report it." Yan Juncheng, the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, went out to the list.

"Tell me!" Yang You said lazily.

"The head of Liu's family in Gongyi, Guandong, Zhang's family in Xingyang, and eleven other aristocratic family heads jointly submitted a report to impeach Yan Lai, the president of the Imperial Bank, to neglect his duties, causing turmoil in the Imperial Bank and affecting the royal reputation."

When Yan Juncheng said this, it was like a thunder thunder in the court. Everyone looked at Yan Juncheng in shock.

"Imperial Bank!" Everyone was shocked.

What does the Imperial Bank mean? If anyone else disagrees before, but after hundreds of silver cars crossed Daxing City yesterday, everyone remembered these four big words, and knew the hidden meaning behind these four words, which is a sea of ​​gold and silver!

The Imperial Bank was founded by His Highness Dai Wang and did not fall under the jurisdiction of the court. It was also a semi-independent disaster relief department and was directly led by His Highness Dai Wang.

Over the past six months, His Highness Dai Wang has done his best to manage the disaster relief department and relieve millions of refugees.

Except for spending 20,000 jin of the vassal treasury in the first month, he did not spend a penny more, and he was all self-reliant.

Yang You handed over the entire court to the ministers to take care of themselves, and the two sides joined forces and did not interfere with each other, which created the glory of Daxing City.
Chapter completed!
