Chapter 670: Two Years of Precipitation

King Wusun glanced around, then stared at Queen Wusun and asked, "Queen, I didn't expect that there were so many dead soldiers lurking around your council hall all year round!" ”

Immediately, his heart moved, and he suddenly took a step forward towards Queen Wusun, and when the dead soldiers around him saw this, they immediately took a step forward with their blades unsheathed.

King Wusun ignored these dead soldiers who could take his life at any time, pointed at Queen Wusun and asked, "This king's uncle disappeared a few months ago, did you do it?" ”

King Wusun stared at Queen Wusun, longing for Queen Wusun to deny it, but he saw Queen Wusun bow her head and nodded slowly.

King Wusun's eyes shrank, and a wave of angry emotions surged into his heart, and he suddenly pulled out his saber and pointed at Queen Wusun, and said coldly: "You are so ruthless!" ”

Queen Wusun raised her head suddenly, her eyes were unusually determined, and she said, "King, in order to realize my ideals, I can sacrifice everything!" You're included! ”

King Wusun suddenly burst out laughing, and his laughter was full of sadness. "Good! This king wants to see how you kill me today, kill me, the king of Wusun, and kill your husband!! ”

"King, please don't push me!" Queen Wusun said in a deep voice, her palms clenched tightly at this time, and her nails had already poked into her flesh.

King Wusun snorted coldly and took a step forward with his sword.

Seeing this, the surrounding dead soldiers immediately took another step forward, and the killing intent on their bodies advanced.

"My lord, I advise you again! Don't push me!! Queen Wusun's voice was colder than it had been before.

The grief-stricken King Wusun listened to Queen Wusun's warning and took another step forward.

Queen Wusun's eyes were cold, and she glanced at the leader of the dead soldiers who had been waiting for orders. Immediately, several cold lights flashed, and King Wusun fell in a pool of blood.

The moment before King Wusun lost his breath. Raising his blood-stained finger at Queen Wusun, he trembled and said, "You, you ・・・・・・!" ”

King Wusun's hand hung down heavily. There was no more movement.

Queen Wusun was stunned until the leader of the dead woke her up.

"Queen, how to deal with it?"

The leader of the dead man asked indifferently, in his opinion, killing this King of Wusun is not a big deal, the national affairs of Wusun have actually been controlled in the hands of Queen Wusun in the past few years, King Wusun has been set aside, and the king of the sky is a joke!

Queen Wusun turned her back sharply to the crowd.

Queen Wusun was silent for a moment. Pan said: "Prepare him for a good life and secretly transport him to the Taimiao!" Immediately summon the important ministers of the court! ”

The leader of the dead men answered, and immediately cleaned up the scene.

A moment later, the inner hall of the Wusun Palace.

Queen Wusun announced a bad news to the most important person in front of her, King Wusun suddenly fell ill and died.

This news stunned everyone present, and the old and refined Prime Minister Wusun glanced at Queen Wusun with a sad look on the queen's throne.

After the death of King Wusun, the next King of Wusun was quickly decided, and the side branch of the Wusun royal family, who was only three or four years old, ascended to the sky under the control of Queen Wusun and became King Wusun, and then Queen Wusun became the regent of Wusun with the young and formal age of King Wusun!

During this period, anyone who opposed it was also a close confidant of the former king of Wusun. All of them were purged, and the king of Wusun was not at peace for several days, and the people were panicked.

These things were soon learned by the spies in Wusun City, and the relevant information was fed back to Chang'an.

Cao Cao after getting the news. Subconsciously felt that something was wrong, so he ordered the Wusun secret agent to investigate the matter secretly, and then through what the queen of Wusun did. Cao Cao just sighed with emotion, he didn't expect a Wu Zetian to appear among Wusun, and he didn't care about it anymore!

Wu Zetian's fame is not only for itself. Or because of the Tang Empire at that time, Wusun and the Tang Dynasty. It's completely different, and it's not something that one person's talent can supplement.

Compared with this Queen Wusun, Cao Cao is still more worried about the emergence of a woman like Wu Zetian in his country, but fortunately, so far, Cao Cao has only seen Zhen Mi alone, and Zhen Mi has been living under Cao Cao's surveillance all the time for so long.

Time continued to advance at its own pace, and in the blink of an eye, nearly two years passed, and in these nearly two years, the Great Wei Empire did not carry out any large-scale conquests with foreign countries, only occasionally small wars, and the empire made every effort to develop production, and all aspects achieved exciting results.

At the same time, the currency of the Great Wei Empire was also formally reformed, and the silver that was continuously transported back from Fusang made the silver reserves of the Great Wei Dynasty unprecedentedly increased, and the status of the five-baht coin has fallen to the lowest level today, and gold and silver occupied the majority when people bought and sold goods, and the three-dimensional monetary system of gold, silver and copper was formally established, one tael of gold was equal to ten taels of silver, and one tael of silver was equal to one thousand coins!

As for the resistance expected by Cao Cao, there is no such thing as resistance, after all, gold and silver have been precious metals since ancient times, and the reason why it has not developed into a three-dimensional monetary system of gold, silver and copper is only because of the circulation of silver and the huge gold reserves in this era.

With Cao Cao's conscious collection of gold and the increase of my silver reserves, this period seems to be a matter of course, and the change of the monetary system has also made the change of the tax system of the Great Wei Dynasty, no longer charging five baht but adding gold and silver.

By the spring of 212 A.D., that is, the eighteenth year of the founding of the Great Wei Empire, the grain in the treasury of the Great Wei Empire was like a continuous mountain range, and the money was also piled up, and the total amount of grain stored in the treasury was more than 20 million quintals, and the money was more than 10,000 taels of gold and 100 million taels of silver, and it is worth mentioning that most of this came from industry and commerce, and the proportion of agricultural taxes was only a little more than one-third.

The people everywhere live and work in peace and contentment, life is getting richer and richer, the voices of disharmony in the country are disappearing more and more, the major merchants are developing more and more rapidly, and the scale is rapidly expanding to the degree of attention, and the merchants of the Great Wei Empire have gradually appeared in various parts of the Eurasian continent, these merchants not only brought rolling wealth to the Great Wei Empire, but also continuously enhanced the understanding of the people of the Great Wei Dynasty about the world.

In terms of culture, the market for Confucianism is getting narrower and narrower, and those enterprising Confucianisms that truly reflect Confucian culture are gradually replacing those that are deliberately misinterpreted.

And just when the Great Wei Empire took advantage of the two years of peace, the Roman Emperor Caracalla finally unified the entire Roman Empire, and Septimius Getas in England was completely wiped out, and part of the remnants of the Senate entrenched in Sardinia to support Septimius Geta were finally eliminated after nearly a year of hard fighting, and the Spanish rebels who had been in the provinces of Betka and Gransis were also wiped out.

However, there was still a dark current within the Roman Empire, and they were enemies that Caracalla, the iron-blooded emperor, could not appease.

Due to the threat of the Jin people and the shock brought to Caracalla by the Great Wei in the east, unlike in history, the Roman Empire in this time and space did not stop developing its military power after quelling the rebellion at home, but also vigorously developed!

By the spring of 212 AD, the army of the Roman Empire had grown to twenty-four legions, totaling 1.2 million troops, and this was only the regular army of the Roman Empire, of which the army composed of Spartans had also grown to a full legion, that is, 50,000 men! (To be continued.) )
