"Your Majesty, Li Bi wants to see you."

"not see."

Xue Bai was actually a little surprised when he heard Li Mi's name, but he didn't have to think about it to know what Li Mi was going to do. He just wanted to persuade him to stop, so he immediately refused the summons.

After a while, Du Youlin hurried over and prostrated himself in front of Xue Bai.

"Your Majesty, minister..."

Xue Bai stopped Du Youlin's words and said: "If my guess is right, Li Mi has come to see you. Today I have made up my mind, you don't need to persuade me anymore."

"I found out that Li Qiyun was not among them. He had already left for Chang'an."

Du Youlin did not persuade Xue Bai to stop, but quickly uttered a sentence.

What he said sounded like what others had taught him to say. He was not calm, and there was a rush that was afraid that if he spoke slowly, he would lose the chance. However, it still attracted Xue Bai's attention.

"So what?"

Du Youlin said: "I'm afraid they have united with Guo Ziyi and are preparing to support King Yan."

Xue Bai said: "In this case, it can be seen that these people are traitors and should be killed."

Du Youlin said hurriedly: "I would like to ask your Majesty to spare their lives for the time being."

"You said they want to support Li Bin, but you want me to spare them." Xue Bai asked, "Then are you threatening me?"

Du Youlin was stunned and quickly confessed.

Li Mi taught him what he said, and he really wanted to use it as a bargaining chip to play a game with Xue Bai, but if he didn't say it well, it would become a threat, and Du Youlin did not have such a superb art of speaking.

When Cui Youfu saw this, he quickly said: "Duke Du must have said that if these criminals could be spared, maybe they could clear up their misunderstandings to Guo Ziyi and avoid going to that point."

"Yes." Du Youlin said quickly: "This matter is just my guess. There is still room for change."

No matter how they tried to persuade them, Xue Bai just turned a deaf ear and stood proudly on the stone steps looking at the killing scene. Even his back looked cruel and ruthless.

Outside the palace, Li Mi was still waiting, getting more and more anxious.

He stood in front of Du Youlin's car, pacing back and forth.

Sitting on the shaft of the carriage was Du Wulang. Seeing that Li Mi, a Taoist priest who was usually calm and gentle, had become an ant on the hot pot, Du Wulang was also very embarrassed and felt that he seemed more calm than Li Mi.

"Mr. Li, I'm actually very anxious too. I just can't help. There's no point in being anxious."

Li Mi stopped and took a deep look at Du Wulang.

Du Wulang was confused and said: "Although I am on your Majesty's side, I still feel that it is not good to kill so many people...it will harm Tianhe."

"Wu Lang is kind-hearted." Li Bi said, "He can help me."

He just had a temperament that seemed to give others a chance when asking for help. As soon as Du Wulang heard that he could help him, he nodded subconsciously.

"Okay, tell me about it."

"You go to see His Majesty and convey a message to me." Li Bi said, "Yan Gong took office and Yuan Zai betrayed me. I am willing to preside over the reform for Your Majesty."

"ah?"

Du Wulang was surprised at first.

Anyway, based on his friendship with Xue Bai, he couldn't say something like "I will be your prime minister, and you obey my request." Only Li Bi had such arrogance.

Only now did Du Wulang deeply understand that it was better to study more, and he would still have to urge his children to study more in the future.

He never thought about making himself more diligent.

"I have some insights here. Please pass them to Your Majesty."

"Why didn't Mr. Li say anything earlier?"

"This method may not work, so give it a try."

At this time, the palace gate had been completely taken over by Lao Liang. The soldiers who followed the minister to "Qin the King" did not receive a clear order to rebel, and they did not make up their minds to rebel. When they saw that the emperor was serious about it, they either fled or fled.

, or surrendered.

Du Wulang walked to the palace gate and saw Zhao Yuliang, the general under Lao Liang's command. He said hello and wanted to enter the palace to see him.

They were all familiar with each other, so he said in a normal tone: "My grandfather has just met with Your Majesty, and I also have something to report."

"What can happen to Wu Lang?" Zhao Yuliang was born with a mud-legged background. He said what he had to say: "There are people killing people inside. Don't be scared, Wu Lang."

"I really have something important to do."

Du Wulang still had face, and no one would really stop him. Zhao Yuliang then asked him to enter the palace from Xihua Gate in the west, bypass Qianyuan Gate Square, pass Zhongshu Province, and then pass through Qiujing Gate to Mingtang.

You can't see the murder scene on this route, but you can hear the screams on the other side through the palace wall. Du Wulang suddenly felt compassion and quickened his pace.

After passing through Qiujing Gate, there was a strong smell of blood in the air. At this time, he was already trotting, and rushed all the way to Xue Bai. He glanced at the situation at the bottom of the steps. His heart was trembling, and he hurriedly saluted and said

: "Your Majesty, Li Mi asked me to tell you that he wants to preside over the reform for you."

This sentence can tell the difference between Du Wulang and others. When he came to speak, he first wanted to let Xue Bai know what was going on, because he was standing in Xue Bai's position.

But Xue Bai didn't even look back, he just said: "Who does he think he is?"

In fact, he does not lack talents for reform. Nowadays, there are Yang Yan, Liu Yan, Wu Qi and other famous economic ministers in the court, which can be regarded as a wealth of talents.

"I also think he is crazy." Du Wulang said, "But this is what he asked me to hand over. He said it was some of his views on His Majesty's new law."

As he spoke, he took out a scroll from his sleeve.

But Xue Bai didn't give any orders, so no servant came to pick him up.

When Du Youlin and Cui Youfu saw this, they were anxious and wanted to speak. Du Wulang was afraid that they would ruin things by talking too much, so he simply went over and handed over the scroll.

"Let's take a look, just in case it's really useful."

Maybe it was because Du Wulang and Xue Bai had different friendships, so no one else would have dared to do such an action, in case they were taken as assassins.

Xue Bai then took the scroll, unfolded it, and slowly read it word by word, not paying attention to the screams in his ears.

Separated by a piece of paper, in front of him was a scene shaped like hell.

…

"Don't kill, don't kill!"

Yuan Zai was on the run, and finally escaped to Qianyuan's sect.

However, there was a closed door in front of him.

"Open the door!"

Previously, Yuan Zai had ordered this door to be opened, but no matter how much he shouted, he could not open it.

Many people around him had surrendered, raising their hands and squatting down while crying. Upon seeing this, Yuan Zai quickly followed suit. After a while, soldiers came over and pushed him down without any reason.

He thought he was destined to die. When he turned around, he suddenly found that after killing many people, no one on the field was shouting against Xue Bai. Everyone was trembling and crawling.

Only Yuan Zai was escorted through the square filled with pools of blood and up the steps.

After taking two steps, he gradually calmed down and said, "I'll walk by myself."

The two soldiers ignored him, but Yuan Zai had regained his composure and said: "I am Yuan Zai, a minister of the emperor's humerus. I was kidnapped by those rebellious people and entered the Qianyuan Gate."

After saying this, although he was still being held captive, his posture remained calm and there was still a look of dissatisfaction on his face.

When he saw Xue Bai, he quickly put away his dissatisfied look and said with a salute: "Your Majesty is safe, I almost missed seeing your Majesty!"

"What's going on?"

"I was following an edict to pacify those rebellious people. I don't know who opened the palace door. The thieves rushed up and kidnapped me. They also threatened that I was their internal correspondent. This is simply ridiculous. I am in charge of the Ministry of Household Affairs and inspect the world for your majesty. I found out that

You have committed countless dirty deeds, how can you join them?!" Yuan Zai said sternly.

Today, including Du Youlin, all of Xue Bai's confidants believe that he went too far in killing the killer. Until now, only Yuan Zai scolded the minister and supported Xue Bai's actions the most firmly.

Regarding Yuan Zai's remarks, Xue Bai said nothing and just threw the manuscript in his hand.

"Du Wulang sent me some insights. Take a look and share your opinions."

Yuan Zai passed the test easily. The two soldiers behind him quickly let go of him and allowed him to stretch his muscles. They picked up the manuscript and started reading.

He reads very quickly, but he does not swallow things whole, but he has the ability to read with a photographic memory.

It is precisely because of this talent that although he was born in a poor family and did not have good academic conditions, he was able to become a high school scholar. He is a genius.

After reading it, he immediately guessed that these insights must not have been written by Du Wulang.

In fact, the content in the manuscript is generally similar to the direction of current reforms, but few people can understand it so completely and put forward some key new ideas.

To put it simply, the reform has been reorganized and summarized, and on the surface, it is not as sharp as the inspection of the law.

When people are promoted and deposed, they should govern with strict officials; suppress the influence of the family to limit the abuse of officials; focus on tribute and optimize the imperial examination to select officials; choose officials carefully and choose local governors; be good at farming and mulberry, and use the harvest of the fields as the assessment content of local officials; equalize the land

, Let’s start with the re-division of the official’s job fields. In fact, officials are slightly different from the aristocrats. They really have errands, which are easy for the court to control. Furthermore, by allocating job fields, officials with outstanding ability and character can be assigned.

Feeling grateful...

"Returning to your Majesty, I think it is very appropriate. This manuscript not only understands the profound meaning of your Majesty's reform, but the details are also in line with the actual situation of the court." Yuan Zai pondered and commented: "It is very sophisticated."

He used the word "lao lao" because he felt that Xue Bai's reforms were too drastic and sharp. The same content would appear less sharp when placed here. He must have been made by someone who was well versed in officialdom.
To be continued...
