Chapter IX, Article 3 Decree
Oriental Palace!
Wang Xiong took a group of officials and watched the embers of the Heavenly Wolf Camp waiting for wolves.
Next to Wang Xiong stood Wang Tiance, Wang Zhongquan and a group of Wang family children.
Ember and the wolves stood in front of Wang Xiong.
"Ember, this king's order is clear?" Wang Xiong stared at the embers.
"Don't worry, the prince, we will search the mountains of the Eastern Fiefdom and catch these thieves!" Ember said solemnly.
"Catch? You don't have to, just bring your head! Wang Xiong said lightly.
"Yes!" Ember should be drunk.
"Lord Wang, are they okay? Or do you want to lead some soldiers to exterminate these nine-way bandits? Wang Tiance said.
"Yes, Lord Wang, there have been bandits in a few places, and the people in some places have been burned to death, this group of wild wolves ......, is this wolf camp good?" Another official said.
"Lord Wang, is it better for Tiance Hou to suppress bandits? Let's cooperate with Tiancehou! After all, Tiance Hou is more professional in leading the troops, and the Sky Wolf Battalion is just a group of ......! Another official persuaded.
"Lord Wang, you can't be careless when dealing with Captain Pang. Can't let him have a chance to breathe! ”
……………………
………………
……
Wang Xiong's eyes narrowed as he looked at the officials.
During this time, you cleaned up Captain Pang by yourself, and there were too many victories that made you forgetful? I thought that the previous persecution of Captain Pang was all due to you.
Look down on the Sky Wolf Battalion? Just a bunch of brutes? Or do you think that this credit should be shared by you, and should not be given to a group of brutes?
Wang Xiong remained silent and did not follow the words of the officials.
"Okay, you wait to cooperate with the embers, and there will be no objections!" Wang Xiong said coldly.
"Yes!" The officials nodded with some regret.
In addition to regrets, there are some regrets.
Ember on the side lowered his head, and a trace of hideousness flashed on his face. Ember's wisdom is no worse than that of a person, and even smarter than an average person. How can you not hear the rejection of these officials?
The officials had a condescending attitude and despised themselves.
Despise yourself? Hmph, a group of weak wastes who cultivate dare to despise themselves?
However, Ember understands his situation and cannot deter the officials without showing a little merit. Moreover, it is obvious that the prince attaches great importance to himself. Fight against public opinion and let yourself go to the bandits.
Ember looked up and just saw Wang Xiong's gaze, and there seemed to be a hint of expectation in Wang Xiong's eyes, as if to say, "Ember, don't let this king down!" ”
"Lord Wang, Ember must swear to the death to suppress the bandits, not kill the bandits, and never come back!" Ember said firmly.
It seems to be responding to Wang Xiong's expectations.
"Go ahead, according to the map that appeared, go and track it first!" Wang Xiong commanded.
"Yes!" Ember shouted.
Stepping forward, Ember took the wolves out of the Eastern Palace, and along the way, Ember showed a trace of ruthlessness on his face, this time he must exterminate the bandits as quickly as possible. In order to repay the attention of the prince.
And the officials still had some regrets when they watched the Heavenly Wolf Camp leave, but the prince tried his best to disagree, but everyone didn't dare to say anything more.
"Alright, the Sky Wolf Camp has already started. You also start to publicize in the Sifang City, and tell the people everything, Captain Pang withdrew his troops, and the king ordered the suppression of bandits, and at the same time posted notices, and anyone who found the traces of the bandit army will be rewarded! Wang Xiong said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" A group of officials responded.
The officials got the order, led by Wang Tiance, and quickly went to make arrangements.
At the entrance of the main hall, only Wang Zhongquan was left standing beside Wang Xiong.
"Lord Wang, most of these officials are children of the Wang family, and several victories have made them a little carried away!" Wang Zhongquan said with an ugly face.
"Hmm!" Wang Xiong's eyes narrowed slightly and nodded.
Participating in politics with the children of the family, there are indeed many things that cannot be sorted out.
This is a court meeting between monarchs and ministers, but in the eyes of some people, it is regarded as a family matter. Meetings and family discussions? But different things, between the two, seriousness is not at the same level at all.
However, these children of the Wang family continue to blur these seriousness.
"These officials, in the past, did not bow to Captain Pang, they may only be loyal to the Wang family, just their own rights. And not the prince himself! Wang Zhongquan squinted and said.
Wang Xiong smiled slightly: "This king knows!" ”
It's just that now that he has to deal with Captain Pang, Wang Xiong didn't put everything on the surface.
Wang Zhongquan looked at Wang Xiong, and finally nodded: "The old slave is too talkative!" ”
Wang Zhongquan knew that Wang Xiong was powerful, and he had already shown such a means to deal with Taiwei Pang, and he couldn't deal with this group of arrogant officials?
----------
Daqin, Shendu, go to the study!
While reviewing the recital, the emperor listened to the reports of several important ministers outside the curtain.
"Lao Chen originally thought that Wang Xiong and Pang Taiwei would fight city by city, but Lao Chen didn't expect that this Wang Xiong had such great ambition to expand the battle line to all cities and fight in an all-out battle, and he actually forced Pang Taiwei to advance and retreat!" Zhang Zhengdao sighed.
"Yes, tax exemption for one year, seal Captain Pang's money bag, and enter the knighthood, this is even more of Captain Pang's hands and feet! Both moves are extremely clever. In comparison, Pang Taiwei's two-move chess failed! ”
"Not only did he fall behind, this is clearly to send Wang Xiong to the hearts of the people! Pang Taiwei's first step, using the people's livelihood to embarrass Wang Xiong, Wang Xiongquan next, I don't know how much luck there is, now, harassing Wang Xiong with bandits? As soon as Wang Xiong's subordinates publicized, wouldn't it be a good opportunity for Wang Xiong to sing the praises of virtue? ”
"The minister also thinks that Wang Xiong and Pang Taiwei have clashed twice, and Wang Xiong is more than a step higher than Pang Taiwei!"
……………………
………………
……
Several important ministers were sighing.
"Prime Minister, what do you think?" The brush in the human emperor's hand paused slightly, and asked lightly.
"Lao Chen thinks that the Oriental Palace, in fact, is not a small problem!" Prime Minister Daqin said lightly.
"Not a small problem?" Zhang Zhengdao was puzzled.
"Wang Xiong's group of officials are all children of the Wang family! It doesn't matter if they are all children of the Wang family, the key is that these children of the Wang family are too self-righteous, don't know how to advance or retreat, and don't know how to be respectful. Sooner or later, something will happen! Prime Minister Daqin said lightly.
"Sooner or later, something will happen? Hehe, not necessarily, Wang Xiong, this kid, but he is very slippery, and he should be able to solve these dilemmas soon! The Human Emperor said lightly.
The officials were slightly stunned, but no one expected the emperor to speak so highly of Wang Xiong.
---------
East Heart City.
"Dangdangdang..................!"
A series of gongs rang out in the city. Hundreds of people looked over curiously, and saw a guard all the way, dragging corpses through the streets with ox carts.
"Good news, good news, the Eastern Palace, the Heavenly Wolf Camp, encircled and suppressed the bandits who harassed the people, killed 800 bandits in the front mountain valley, come and see, see if there are any enemies of everyone!"
The person who struck the gong was naturally arranged by the Oriental Palace. For a time, he took 800 corpses to parade through the streets, singing the praises of the prestige of the Oriental Palace.
Now, Wang Xiong and Pang Taiwei are both engaged in political games, how can such a great achievement not be shown to the public this time?
"That's right, it's that bandit, I saw it last time I came to the outskirts of the city to burn and kill, it's him!"
"Thief, you also have today, you killed my wife and children, and now the prince has helped us avenge!"
"Kill them!"
"They're dead!"
"Kill them again!"
……………………
………………
……
After the people recognized the body of the thief, they immediately threw rotten eggs and stinky stones at the body of the thief.
Hundreds of people were excited.
"A few days ago, when Captain Pang withdrew his troops, I was still scared, but I didn't expect that the palace would destroy the thieves in a blink of an eye!"
"Shit Captain Pang, when did you suppress bandits before, when did you exceed two hundred? Look at the palace, you can snipe 800 people at once! ”
"The prince said that he would exterminate all the bandits, let us report it. The prince really thinks about us! ”
"Yes, the prince governs our river and helps us kill thieves, the prince is really a good person!"
"Who said that the prince was incompetent? Later, let me hear it again, I want him to look good! ”
…………………………
………………
……
The corpses of thieves are constantly being displayed to the public, reaping batch after batch of luck.
The wolves led by Ember are desperate in order to fight for Wang Xiong. Tear and kill all the way, chasing the thieves from all directions.
Its combat effectiveness also made Wang Tiance and others look surprised. You must know that after killing so many bandits in such a short period of time, even Wang Tiance couldn't lead the army.
It's in the middle of the mountains and forests.
The major cities of the Eastern fiefdom are constantly receiving good news.
It was good news for the people, but it was bad news for Captain Pang. In the Taiwei Mansion in Dongxin City, Pang Taiwei didn't know how many tea bowls he had broken.
It's not just that the bandits have been exterminated, but also the sequelae brought about by the 'entry into the lord and the official'.
As Wang Xiong's fame continued to soar, some officials of the Pang Taiwei faction who were still hesitating also continued to surrender to the Eastern Palace, so that the officials of the Pang Taiwei faction were fighting more and more. As a result, Captain Pang was overwhelmed by the infighting of his subordinates everywhere every day.
"Wang Xiong, Wang Xiong, you deceive people too much!" Captain Pang smashed a tea bowl again.
"Taiwei, it's not a way to go on like this, then Wang Xiong is about to do it!" One of the staff members said bitterly.
"What then?" Captain Pang said with an ugly face.
Pang Taiwei didn't expect that the trouble he gave Wang Xiong not only did not make Wang Xiong anxious, but on the contrary, he also gained batches of fame for Wang Xiong.
"Those green wolves, I didn't expect to become so powerful! Wang Xiong not only occupies the name, but now, with such an army of the Martial Sect Realm under his command, it is also becoming more and more troublesome. Another staff member smiled wryly.
"I ask you, what to do!" Captain Pang said in an air.
Several staff members looked at each other, all of them looking ugly, and finally one of the staff members had a chill in his eyes and made a gesture of wiping his neck with a knife.
"Buzz!"
Captain Pang's pupils shrank.
The meaning of the staff, Captain Pang knew well. To assassinate Wang Xiong?
Wang Xiong is dead, a hundred?
"Captain, this is the fastest way!" The staff member said bitterly.
If Wang Xiong could not be killed, then it would be impossible for the staff to think of this method, after all, the risk was too great, not that Wang Xiong could not be killed, but that he was worried about the blame of the imperial court.
Captain Pang's eyelids jumped wildly, and he took a deep breath: "Let this official think about it!" ”
--------------
Oriental Palace. In a large hall.
"Lord Wang, good news, under our propaganda, the people now know everything, they all know the ambition of Pang Taiwei wolf, and they all know that my Eastern Mansion is their biggest reliance!"
"Yes, batches of bandit corpses have been sent into the streets of the city, who doesn't applaud now?"
"Lord Wang, letters from all over the country, many officials from Taiwei Pang's faction are willing to surrender!"
"Lord Wang, the publicity we waited for has worked! Dare to give credit to everyone! ”
…………………………
………………
……
The officials shouted excitedly.
The officials kept counting their own merits, perhaps touting each other, but they did not say a word about Ember's Celestial Wolf Battalion.
Wang Xiong looked at the officials and smiled slightly, but he saw it clearly in his heart. Ember is not as good as you? Hehe! Everything you do is arranged by this king, and it's just a normal way to complete the task, and anyone can do it. But, who can do the matter of the Sky Wolf Camp? Do you know how hard Ember is during this time? For the credit of embers, he didn't say a word.
"This king knows!" Wang Xiong said lightly.
"Lord Wang, I look at Taiwei Pang's side, I can't support it for too long!" Wang Tiance said with a smile.
"Emaciated camels are bigger than horses, don't take them lightly!" Wang Xiong said lightly.
"Yes!" The crowd responded.
However, some people don't think so, and the continuous victories make them forgetful.
"Those who surrender are all people who have added officials. Those who were demoted, can there be those who surrendered? Wang Xiong said lightly.
"Huh? They? That's not it! Wang Tiance shook his head.
"None? It shows that there are still a large number of people available under Captain Pang's hands, and this group of people is really stubborn? It doesn't matter, this official will see how dare they dare to continue to oppose the Eastern Palace! Wang Xiong's eyes narrowed.
"Lord Wang, do you still have a way?" Wang Tiance's eyes lit up.
"It's time, first step, tax-free for a year! The second step is to enter the knighthood and add officials! The third step is to open Enco! Wang Xiong's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Wide open Enko? Lord, do you want the world's big test? Reinstate the imperial examination system of the old prince? Wang Tiance raised his eyebrows.
Imperial examination? A group of officials also raised their eyebrows. This is to select officials from the people!
"Yes, the fall of Captain Pang is imminent, and those stubborn officials can be cleaned up soon. It's time to open the imperial examination, recruit talents, and fill the vacancies of stubborn officials! Wang Xiong said lightly.
"Huh? Fill the place of their officer? Lord Wang, we have a lot of officials who haven't been promoted yet! An official said suddenly.
In fact, those official positions under Captain Pang have long been targeted by this official, even if he doesn't fill those positions, those who are nepotistic can also be filled.
We are the children of the royal family, and our servants have no official positions, so don't those positions be reserved for our own people?
The officials immediately looked at Wang Xiong eagerly.
Wang Xiong glanced at the officials lightly: "Guangkai Enke is to put pressure on the officials under Captain Pang." Exacerbate their internal contradictions! ”
"Huh?" The officials were slightly stunned.
"Lord Wang, Kaienke, is it to scare them? Let them mess with themselves? Wang Tiance's eyes lit up.
"Yes, perhaps, those officials will also be frightened to come to Chengcheng immediately, this is to accelerate the demise of Captain Pang!" Wang Xiong said in a deep voice.
"I see!" The officials immediately laughed.
Another stratagem? In order to fight Captain Pang. Indeed, the most important thing now is to kick Captain Pang away. The Eastern fief is the fief of my royal family. It's not the turn of an outsider to intervene.
When Wang Xiong said this, everyone agreed. As for the talents who will be selected by the imperial examination at that time. Everyone thinks about it, there are so many vacant positions, and it doesn't matter if you divide most of them and leave a small part for the rookies in the imperial examination. The most important thing is to force out Captain Pang as quickly as possible.
"Lord Wang, can anyone take a scientific examination?" An official said expectantly.
Wang Xiong glanced at the official, obviously guessing his plan: "It's not impossible for your relatives to go to the scientific examination, but no cheating!" This time, I put pressure on Captain Pang, and I can't make the slightest flaw, and I can't give Captain Pang a hint of a handle. It must be done beautifully, besides, even if you can't pass the exam, the children of the Wang family, as well as your relatives, is there no imperial examination, and this king will not need it? ”
"Hahaha, yes, yes, there will definitely be no fraud, don't worry!" The officials immediately laughed.
The prince has said it so clearly, what is the point of participating in it by himself? Anyway, they can be officials, then the imperial examination is just to confuse Pang Taiwei and them, don't spoil the prince's big things, anyway, people from their own family and mother-in-law's family can arrange officials by themselves.
The officials immediately received the order excitedly and went to prepare to publicize the opening of Enko.
After all the officials left, Wang Xiong looked at the backs of the officials leaving, revealing a sneer.
Guang Kai Enke is not just an official who fills in the faction of Pang Taiwei. It's also time to sort you out.
