Chapter Sixty-Eight: How Many Emperors
Chapter Sixty-Eight: How Many Emperors
There are more and more outsiders in Yushan City.
There are samurai with high figures, scribes in Confucian robes, jeweled merchants, simple craftsmen, and honest farmers.
There were a total of 1,137 Lantian deputies.
Among them, there are more than 600 government representatives, and the rest are selected from various places.
More than 600 officials are Yun Zhao's basic plate, even if other representatives are all against him as an emperor, with the support of more than half of the officials, he can still fulfill his wish.
However, this situation is unlikely, and Yun Zhao's resolutions, ideas, and estimates are accepted by everyone and implemented by the absolute majority of the meeting.
Every delegate was thrilled at this time, and for the first time, they found that they actually had the power to choose the emperor!
Although there is only one emperor candidate for Yun Zhao, it is still a groundbreaking thing for them.
Looking through the annals of Chinese history, the position of the emperor can be inherited, or it can be obtained by usurping the throne by plotting the dynasty, it can be obtained through rebellion, or it can be obtained through hypocritical Zen concessions.
Now, an option has been added that best suits the appetite of the people - the emperor can be chosen by them.
What is Power?
That's power!
As long as it is a person with a certain amount of knowledge, after learning the news, no one thinks that Yun Zhao is making a show for everyone, you must know that the matter of the people's selection of the emperor, even if it is a process, is a great concession for the royal family.
Naturally, since the emperor was elected by the people, then, to a certain extent, the people had no reason to rebel and overthrow the emperor, and they could elect another satisfactory emperor by holding a meeting and voting.
This is a good way for Yun Zhao to come up with to end the change of dynasty.
Yun Zhao set a precedent, that is, he inherited the national heritage of the Ming Dynasty as a person with a foreign surname, and his inheritance method was non-violent, and it could even be said that it was chosen by the people.
In this way, the legitimacy is ......
Of course, this kind of legitimacy is legitimate in the eyes of Yun Zhao, and it is definitely a great rebellion in the eyes of Emperor Chongzhen.
However, as far as the current situation is concerned, Emperor Chongzhen's opinion is no longer important, and the opinion of the Zhu family is no longer important, this is the so-called 'people's hearts care about strength.' ’
Yun Zhao can imagine that one day, someone will force the Yun family to abdicate in the same way, and the situation reached by Yun Zhao has been reached in the rules formulated by Yun Zhao, then the matter of changing the emperor will naturally happen.
In the final analysis, the chances of a successful rebellion are too small and too dangerous, and it is easy to become an enemy of the whole people under the current system.
If the change of imperial power can be achieved in the form of a congress, it will be a great blessing for the Chinese nation!
Confinement of the political struggle to a very small extent is the only thing Yun Zhao can do at the moment.
People who speak a variety of local dialects and have a native mind swagger through the city of Yushan.
Many natives who relied on Lantian to get rich didn't ask the price in the Yushan market, didn't ask if he needed it, as long as it was something from the Yun family's workshop, they directly spent a lot of money.
Sending money directly to Yun Zhao will be imprisoned, and sending money directly to the Yun clan will send the clan to prison together, and the clansmen will be sent to prison together with him, only by frantically buying the goods produced by the Yun clan can they feel more comfortable, after all, they can be regarded as a strange gift to the emperor.
This kind of thing is very dignified to talk about after returning to his hometown.
Then put out the things you bought - it can be said that it is a gift from the emperor, and then get more money back from the hands of those natives.
Compared with these honest natives, those businessmen who have been in the shopping mall for a long time are much more particular when they do things.
In one day, the shopkeepers of Yun's various stores received no less than 200 contracts, and if these contracts were all fulfilled, Yun's would receive more than 700,000 silver dollars.
Yun Niang was even more Feng Ying, and after Qian Duoduo discussed, all these contracts were canceled.
As a result, the merchants also began to follow the actions of the natives, and after they dispatched, there was soon nothing to sell in Yushan City.
When Yang Xiong hurriedly returned to Yushan City, it was already late, and there was definitely nothing to eat when he went to Yushan Academy at this time, and the ingredients for the restaurants in Yushan City had already been eaten up by those people.
It was too late, and he didn't bother to go to the post station to rest, so he took his subordinates into the dark alleys, and finally came to Liu Yucheng's steamed bun shop.
No matter how late the Liu family's steamed bun shop is, they will always leave two drawers of steamed buns for the hungry and crazy Yushan students.
This is a convention, and Yang Xiong doesn't think that Liu Yucheng will change his previous practice just by selling a few more coppers.
Hearing the sound of horses' hooves, Liu Yucheng, who had already rested, sat up with a smile and said to his wife: "I know that it is very wise to keep two more drawers of buns at this time."
You also get up, and there are many people who should come to hear the sound of horses' hooves. ”
Before the husband and wife got dressed, they heard Yang Xiong's voice coming from outside the gate.
"Uncle Liu, help, I'm dying of hunger."
Liu Yucheng replied with a smile: "Come, come, with you Uncle Liu, I won't starve to death you." ”
Seeing that it was Yang Xiong, Liu Yu said: "The prefect is here, it's rare." ”
Yang Xiong said with a smile: "Low-key, low-key, we are the mayor." ”
Liu Yucheng said: "The county lord is about to ascend the throne, and you, the chief of the governor, should also become the prefect." ”
Yang Xiong smiled and said, "If you don't bring meat buns, the prefect in front of you will starve to death." ”
"What's the hurry, the buns always have to be hot to be delicious."
"It's too late, even if you bring the stones, I can eat them, I ran more than 200 miles a day, I really can't stand it."
Although Yang Xiong shouted fiercely, Liu Yucheng still lit the stove, hot buns, and egg drop soup.
On cold evenings, people who are in a hurry must eat hot food.
Yang Xiong and the others sat down against the stove, the fire shining on their faces, and everyone seemed to be very serious.
Liu Yucheng saw that these people's faces were not good, and he didn't ask anything, but just burned the fire and wanted to give everyone a little more warmth.
Yang Xiong looked at the dark Yushan outside the window and sighed: "What others bring is good news, only what we bring is bad news, no matter what, we will make it clear to the county honor." ”
The rest of the people also sighed, looking at the red fire and worrying.
The steamed buns were soon hot, and the hot soup was served, but the hungry people seemed to have no appetite.
Yang Xiong said: "No matter, eat your stomach first, even if you are scolded or dismissed, you have the strength to accept it." ”
Mao Bijiang said: "I never dreamed that when I founded the country in Lantian, people all over the world seemed to be establishing a country, and even the six families in the mountains and valleys could establish themselves as emperors, and they also canonized the queen, the prime minister, and the generalissimo of soldiers and horses."
It's really an unfortunate thing. ”
Yang Xiong glanced at Mao Bijiang and said, "Don't talk about political affairs outside, eat quickly." ”
Mao Bijiang sighed when he heard this, picked up a hot bun and tore it.
Liu Yucheng, who was in charge of serving the buns, didn't treat himself as an outsider, and asked in a low voice: "Those boring people have been cleared, right?" ”
Yang Xiong shook his head and said: "I didn't kill it, the cause is ridiculous, and it's too unjust to kill it." ”
Liu Yucheng's cheeks twitched twice and said: "If you can't do it, let the old man kill him, the young master's happy day is not allowed to be abused." ”
Yang Xiong and Mao Bijiang glanced at each other, and the worried look in their eyes became even heavier.
It happened in a small valley outside Xiangyang City, there was a person with Yang Erstick, I don't know which fortune teller he listened to, saying that he had a seven-star mole on the center of his foot, and he was born with the emperor's life.
Then, this guy named Yang Erstick relied on his incorruptible tongue to move five families in the same valley and establish the Great Wei State, calling himself the invincible and brave King of Wei.
Married the second daughter of the Huang family next door, the queen, the father-in-law served as the prime minister, and the brother-in-law served as the general, and built a city wall with rocks at the mouth of the valley, and sent the prime minister to recruit troops and horses outside the valley, and immediately became the emperor after capturing Xiangyang.
As a result, the prime minister of the Great Wei State was ineffective, leaked the news, and was known by the local governor who took the initiative to destroy the Great Wei State, and led ten regiments to destroy the Great Wei State, captured the emperor, empress, and prime minister of the Great Wei State alive, and broke the general's legs......
The Great Wei State was destroyed, but the problem was left to Mao Bijiang.
If these people are really rebelling, just cut off their heads, there is nothing to say, the problem is that after Mao Bijiang defeated the seven soldiers of the Great Wei State, trouble came.
He didn't know what to do with them.
Decollation?
No matter how you look at it, their founding is a joke,
Don't kill heads?
They are really rebelling, at least from a legal point of view, they are indeed rebelling, and rebellion, in the laws of Lantian, is still a capital crime.
After Yang Xiong received the documents from Mao Bijiang, he waved his pen and gave Yang Erba a heavy responsibility of 50 boards, and the rest of the people were heavily responsible for 30 years, and then let them go and continue to live under the supervision of Mao Bijiang.
He believed that fifty boards were enough to wake up Yang Erba's dream of being the emperor, and thirty boards were enough to dispel the idea of climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix.
In fact, Yang Erguo wept and repented under the board, and the rest of the people also vowed not to do any more dreams of building a country.
It seems that the matter is over, and Yang Xiong believes that even if the county lord personally deals with this absurd farce, the method will not be much different from what he did.
Just when he handed over the errand and arranged for the replacement to return to Lantian for a meeting - a guy with a finger-sized red sarcoma on his back established his own - the Great Chu State in the corner of Fancheng near Xiangyang!
This time, Yang Xiong did not relent, arrested the guy with sarcoma on his back, and sent a doctor to cut off the guy's sarcoma, that is, he could be the emperor's dependence, and beat him to death with a board in front of many people, until he cried and begged for mercy.
The case had just been dealt with, and Yang Xiong had already packed his bags and was about to set off when a guy with six fingers had established his great regime in Huangbao Town, Nanzhang County, Xiangyang......
