"Your Majesty, now, Chen Xianda's rebellion has been put down. Your Majesty can also relax. Concubine Pan Yunu said with a smile.

"Isn't it? His Majesty was originally the Son of Heaven. The Son of Heaven should enjoy the wealth of the world to the fullest. Nothing else was a problem. Wu Shuyuan said with a smile.

Xiao Baojuan hugged Wu Shuyuan and put his foot on the shoulder of the noble concubine Pan Yunu.

The next day, Xiao Baojuan came to the palace in the suburbs, and when he saw the broken walls, he scolded: "My father is simply a miser." There is no need to be so economical. The roof can be replaced with glazed tiles. ”

"Your Majesty, now the treasury is insufficient." Taichang Chu Cheng (Guozhang) worried.

"You wine bags and rice bags! Anyway, I don't want to do things, there are so many reasons. Without money, don't you know how to collect taxes? Xiao Baojuan scolded.

"Your Majesty, now our Qi State has been at war with the Wei State many times, and Chen Xianda's rebellion has also greatly damaged the vitality of our Qi State. Where will the people have money for Your Majesty? Chu Cheng cried.

"You're all a bunch of shit. I am the Son of Heaven, what qualifications do you have to say no to me? Xiao Baojuan scolded.

Chu Cheng thought to himself: Why would the old minister be loyal to such a faint king? His Majesty has lost his mind. If it continues, our Qi country's Jiangshan Sheji will be in danger!

"Your Majesty, the current national strength of our Qi country can no longer support such a large expenditure." Too often Chu Cheng cried.

"Too often, you are the ruler of the country. Not only can I not share my worries, but I also have to leave me without even the money to build the palace. It really doesn't make sense. Xiao Baojuan scolded.

"Your Majesty. As the ruler of the country, how can I watch His Majesty make mistakes again and again? Chu Cheng scolded.

"What did I do wrong? I was originally the Son of Heaven, the King of Ten Thousand Vehicles. I was supposed to enjoy the world. The beauties, jewels, and jade of the world are all mine. Haven't you read the Book of Rites? As the saying goes: under the whole world, it is not the king's land. On the shore of the land, it is not the king's minister. What's wrong with me? Xiao Baojuan roared.

"What's wrong? Your Majesty, don't the people have to live? Your Majesty, aren't the people human? Don't need to survive? Chu Cheng scolded.

"The people? They were meant to work for me. This is the way of heaven! Xiao Baojuan said strongly.

"Your Majesty, is it also the way of heaven for Xia Wei and Shang to be overthrown by the people?" Chu Cheng scolded.

"Chu Cheng, you don't have to deceive people too much." Xiao Baojuan scolded.

"Your Majesty, you just killed me today. I'm going to say it too. Chu Cheng roared.

"Chu Cheng, don't think that I don't dare to kill you. You're not a terrible person. ”

Xiao Baojuan pulled out his sword and was about to slash Chu Cheng.

Chu Cheng had already closed his eyes, instead of being hacked to death by Xiao Baojuan......

"Stop, Your Majesty."

Xiao Baojuan heard someone shouting to him.

Xiao Baojuan looked at it fixedly, this person was Queen Chu Lingxuan.

She pulled the crown prince Xiao Yu and walked over.

"Your Majesty, are you going to kill the father of this palace?" Empress Chu Ling roared.

"Queen. No, I don't. I'm just scare, I'm just scaring the country. Xiao Baojuan smiled.

"Your Majesty, can killing people also be used to scare people?" Queen Chu Lingxuan said angrily.

She suddenly turned red.

"Queen, why are you so rude and willful? You're already a queen. Xiao Baojuan scolded.

"Your Majesty, the concubine doesn't want you to be bewitched by the two sluts Pan Yunu and Wu Yucheng, and even bring disaster to the country and the people." Queen Chu Lingxuan scolded.

"Queen. I'm the Son of Heaven, what's wrong with finding a woman? Xiao Baojuan scolded.

Besides, Xiao Yan who is far away in Yongzhou.

"My lord, this is a sailor from Tamanu. He can steer ships. Chen Qingzhi said with a smile.

Xiao Yan asked, "Can you drive a warship on the Yangtze River?" ”

"Yes." Said the sailor.

"What's your name and where are you from?" Xiao Yan asked.

"My name is Xian Xin. A native of Gaoliang County. Said the sailor.

"Really? You're not Han, are you? Xiao Yan said with a smile.

Xiao Yan thought to himself: Look at his dark skin and strong bones. I'm afraid it's a foreigner from Lingnan.

"Xiao Thorn History. Don't dislike me. I'm not Han Chinese, though. However, I have long heard that Lord Xiao does not look at the door, but on the ability. Feel relieved. I'm sure I'll be able to adapt to your lives. I ran away at the age of twelve. Xian Xin said.

Xiao Yan thought to herself: I still don't think it's reliable. After all, it's a foreigner.

"Xiao Tingshi, don't you want me because I'm a foreign race! Now, the world is in chaos. Wei began to employ people in an eclectic manner. The people of the Wei State can all be big officials. I know I'm low in culture. But I can learn! Xian Xin cried.

"Really? All right. You can do it. I can arrange for a dedicated person to teach you about the culture. Xiao Yan said with a smile.

Chen Qingzhi thought: Why do I think the lord has the idea of rebellion? If he wanted to defend the Wei State, he didn't need so many sailors at all.

"Xian Xin. You're tired too. Let's go to the cafeteria and eat. Chen Qingzhi said with a smile.

Xiao Yan thought to himself: Now, we need to expand our army in Yongzhou. If you can use aliens, that's good.

The alien race has no loyalty to Xiao Baojuan, and he can sell his life if he gives money.

At the same time, on the side of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Yuan Cheng had also reported to Emperor Xuanwu: "Your Majesty, Weichen recently discovered that Xiao Yan, the island of Qi, is expanding his army. His purpose is obviously not to resist our Wei State, but to raise troops against Xiao Baojuan. ”

"Xiao Yan is really about to rebel. He really wasn't a long-lived man. Could it be that he built water conservancy for the purpose of rebellion? Emperor Xuanwu suddenly realized.

"yes!" Li Daoyuan, a water conservancy expert in the Northern Wei Dynasty, said.

"Your Majesty, I also went to investigate. Xiao Yan even dredged the river, and was still training the water army. His navy even had aliens from Lingnan. Xiao Yan must be about to rebel. Li Daoyuan said.

"Is there any chance that Xiao Yan's rebellion will succeed?" Emperor Xuanwu asked.

"Your Majesty, there is. Xiao Baojuan has been building a large number of buildings, working the people and losing money. Such a faint monarch has long lost the hearts of the people. Xiao Baojuan's reign was already in jeopardy. Yuan Cheng worried.

He thought to himself: If Xiao Yan seizes the throne, there will be no hope for our Wei State to unify the world.

"Aiqing, then, what should we do in the Great Wei Kingdom?" Xuanwu Emperor Yuan Ke asked.

"Your Majesty is still watching from the wall. If Xiao Yan obtains the throne. He was also a traitor. We can also crusade against Xiao Yan. If Xiao Baojuan eliminated Xiao Yan, you would be even better. I'm afraid he doesn't have an army to deal with our Wei State anymore. Yuan Cheng said with a smile.

"Then can't I help Xiao Baojuan eliminate Xiao Yan? As soon as Xiao Yan dies, our Wei State will have no opponents. "Xuanwu Emperor Yuan Ke is clever and wise.

He thought to himself: If you help Xiao Baojuan destroy Xiao Yan. Aren't we going to win?

"Your Majesty, you must not do this. Xiao Yan is scheming. If we go south, I'm afraid it will be a fiasco. If Xiao Yan defeats our Wei State, when he becomes the emperor, our Wei State will be in danger. Yuan Cheng worried.
