Chapter 2 The Change of Yongle (Monday's Red Envelope Full of 500 Plus Change)
In the attic of the headquarters of the Secret Investigation Division, Long Jintao read the information compiled by his subordinates, learned about the latest developments happening in various parts of the earth, and felt the true meaning of the phrase "knowledge is power", at least at this moment, he has the ability to stir up the earth, and he is the king of the earth.
He is majestic but quiet, a dark robe, set off his body sitting on the throne, is also so upright and resolute, at this time, his heart is full of this country in his hands, and now he is one of the backbones of this empire.
This thought used to be just thinking about it in my head, and occasionally even Long Jintao himself thought it was ridiculous, but now, it is no longer just a joke. He controls the world by himself and holds great power, and he is no longer the person who only pointed out the country in his head!
The coup d'état was launched by the secret investigation department and the Li family branch, and as soon as the coup was completed, the most threatening King Jin was disposed of.
At present, although the regent of the King of Chu on the table and the power of the imperial court are only one step away from the supreme position, it can be said that he is above 10,000 people, and there is no one above his head, but everyone with a discerning eye knows that in fact, what the King of Chu said is not as effective as the commander of the secret investigation department.
The real leader of the Secret Investigation Division, Shen Fei, is a figure who does not see the beginning and the end, and seems to be determined to carry out the four words of the mastermind behind the scenes to the end, since the battle of the Imperial City began, she has been hiding and not seeing anyone, and would rather make people suspect that she is seriously injured, retreat and recuperate, and her confidence is shaken, rather than come out to stabilize people's hearts, all affairs are ordered to Long Jintao, and the general will act on her behalf.
The concubine naturally made Long Jintao monopolize the power and become the actual ruler of the entire court, and he knew one fact far better than outsiders: that is, the concubine was indeed meticulous, thoughtful, and meticulous to the point of being frightening, but that was only her ability, not her personality!
Long Xian'er's true temperament is indeed extremely capricious, even if it is something that has taken great painstaking efforts to build, as her interest disappears, it is common for her to be smashed and reduced to ashes; This has happened more than once or twice...... Many times, she is the role of the big shopkeeper, setting the direction, just throwing her hands away, throwing off the substantive work, letting herself go to work, and when she completes it well, she has forgotten that order at all......
...... In the secret investigation department, no one can contact her except herself, it can be said that she has come and gone without a trace, which is really a headache; but on the other hand, I feel very lucky, otherwise if the people below know that the top boss is this kind of person, I don't know how to restrain the people below to do things "systematically".
I would never think that without herself, Long Xian'er would not be able to do it alone, this woman's talent is too high, her means are too strong, even if she doesn't have herself, she can create a stronger secret investigation division than today. It's just that the question is...... If she hadn't been assisted by herself, she would have lost her patience earlier, and she would have beaten the heyday of the secret investigation department to a pulp with her backhand, and then ...... No one knows what will happen to her? After all, such a woman is something that ordinary people can't guess.
Working with such a woman is full of uncertainty and challenging, which makes people tired, but the interests of the two sides overlap at present, and before the day of real tearing up his face and dividing life and death, he can only do his best to deal with the aftermath and take over her ...... Wok!
...... But I really didn't expect that there would be such a day when she would throw the entire empire out of the pot...... Threw it to himself. After the coup d'état took power, for most of the year, she almost didn't show up, and her contact with herself was only to leave a message, give instructions in advance, and then everything was up to her.
Heaven-level people are chasing strength, the more they can climb to the high-level heaven-level people, the more obvious this tendency is, personal strength first, light power and wealth, is the consistent style of heaven-level people, Long Xian'er as a heaven-level person, it is not surprising that there is this tendency, but ...... Now she has handed over to herself this is not an ordinary family business, but ...... An empire!
...... The splendid country, the life of all people, the rise and fall of the world, the power of the government and the opposition, the dragon robe is added. These...... How many people are fighting for the goal of one life? What do you seek to ascend to heaven and preach? Seek immortality? What do you want to live and die for? Isn't it just to enjoy what you get forever? She has all this in her hands, but what is puzzling is that why she threw it away without getting hot?
Long Jintao couldn't figure it out, but for most of the year, he was half the emperor of the new empire...... In other words, most of them! Because the titular regent is seriously injured, and the only thing he cares about after taking power is to find a good medicine and a good prescription to prolong his life, and he has no intention of engaging in any political disputes, let alone dealing with political affairs, just using the power in his hands to earn an extra minute and a second to live in this world.
I dare to say a word against the sky: In the past half a year, if the new empire had not been in it, it would have been fucking torn apart and made a mess, I don't know how many people are lonely and how few are inhumane?
I still remember that when I was young, I also complained about the injustice of heaven and earth, and felt that the Li family was all waste, and I was able to ascend to the throne and hold the power.
Even at that time, he was crazy, but deep down, he also knew that this thought was almost crazy, even if he achieved the heavenly level, but there was more than one heavenly rank in each era, the strong were updated every day, and he wanted to create an empire and become a human monarch with his own strength, how easy is it to talk about it?
...... Although I have a lot of ideas, I never thought that the rhapsody of that time would be presented in this way now......
Long Jintao came to the conclusion from his feelings about getting along with Long Xian'er for many years that she was only interested in maintaining the empire in her hands, as long as she prepared enough benefits, negotiated with her, and got her support, she wanted to depose the Li family, set up a new emperor, and ascend the throne by herself, and she nodded more than sixty percent!
...... She's really not interested!
Looking at her appearance, sometimes I also start to be confused, thinking about chasing power, fighting for power and profit, and almost indulging in this strange circle and unable to extricate myself, what is it for?
...... I need power for greater power and wealth, and when I get power and wealth, I have more resources for me to pursue higher power! The two complement each other and are indispensable. There is nothing to doubt about this truth, I have always believed in my own way, and I have no regrets even if I die!
...... But what am I seeking power, power, and wealth for? When I get all three, am I happy? I ...... What am I doing? Is what I'm doing really worth my effort?
A dignified generation of heroes, Qiu Long's ambitions are higher than the sky, but he didn't expect to be reduced to the point of thinking and looking for directions, Long Jintao felt that he was ridiculous, but ...... I don't hate these boring fantasies, and I don't have anything to dislike them.
What's even more strange is that when I started thinking about these ridiculous and ridiculous questions, I temporarily slowed down my crazy cultivation in the past, but I found that I ...... The power, which has been strong to a critical point, has not grown anymore, but has begun to purify and purify itself, like a life in a long-hidden chrysalis, which is about to break through to the next stage.
...... All kinds of signs show yourself that the Heavenly Steps are just around the corner!
If you achieve the Heavenly Rank, you won't have to be so overwhelmed by the Shattered Star Cluster, and at that time, you will have more chips to operate, and you will be more secure in controlling the entire empire and the situation. However, this matter is not urgent, and maybe it can be gradual and gain more......
In such a state of mind, Long Jintao suddenly received a report, it was an urgent letter from the south, when he opened the letter, after reading the content, the recent gradual calming of the state of mind, suddenly waves, Long Jintao's eyes were sharp, staring at the text in the letter, sharp eyes seemed to be to insert the thin piece of paper in front of him!
"Zhu Yongle rebelled, assassinated his eldest brother Zhu Yongming at the family banquet, beheaded him, seized his position, and cleaned the Zhu family!"
The content of the letter is concise and to the point, but it is straightforward, this is a naked killing brother to seize the throne!
Since the establishment of the new empire, the wealthy families of the six counties have not allowed anyone to snatch the position of the head of the family by such a bloody coup d'état, and everyone does not care how they fight in secret, but they cannot be so barbaric and cannot challenge the collective authority behind the system.
This tacit understanding will be broken sooner or later, which Long Jinhai has known for a long time. At the same time, this is another consensus, but ...... There are still many doubts that are puzzling, how can the turmoil be at this moment? Also, how can it be the Zhu family?
There is a powerful force like the Shattered Star Cluster resting there, and the conflict with the imperial court is about to break out, and the empire may change greatly at any time, at this time, all forces choose to sit and wait and see, not wanting to become a bird before the big change comes, being suppressed by many forces, and powerless to grab the real big benefits.
Zhu Yongle came to power in a coup d'état at this time and provoked civil strife in his own house, which is the most stupid act, not only does it not benefit at all, but will make himself suffer enemies inside and outside, are the people of the Zhu family crazy to act so recklessly?
Moreover, among the wealthy families of the six counties, Yaoyu Zhumen has the most wealth accumulation, capital maintenance, and the most merchant habits, compared with other nobles, there is less of that noble and domineering spirit, full of copper smell and philistine, this is the consensus of the other county nobles on the Zhu family.
If they want to compete for the position, they usually use bribery, trickery, and other secret methods to achieve their goals. Zhu Yongming, the former head of the family who had just died, and his father Zhu Hongwu, the two of them were recognized as clever people, good at planning and trading, and they excluded other competitors and ascended to the throne.
