A quick journey through the stars

Chapter 170: Happy 7 Qing Er 4

When the Empress Dowager and her ministers learned that the child was a prince, they were delighted to know that the kingdom had a successor. They named the "little prince" Linxi, and he ascended the throne as emperor, with four regents temporarily managing the government.

Donghua looked at the child who was born and knew that it was the appearance of this child that changed his fate. He casually calculated the national destiny and current situation of Chengyu Kingdom with a gloomy face.

If this child had not been born, I am afraid that after my reincarnated body died young, the Chengyu Kingdom would have been destroyed due to civil strife due to lack of a leader, and the Chengyu Kingdom would have only three hundred years to live.

If it weren't for this child, I'm afraid I would have been tainted with sin. Afterwards, he returned to Taichen Palace and summoned Siming to ask if anyone had interfered during his ordeal. Siming flatly denied it.

After Donghua let Siming go down, he used the backtracking technique to review what happened when he was experiencing the tribulation.

Seeing Sima Ming and Bai Fengjiu from Qingqiu interfering with his own fate many times, and Bai Fengjiu also using her charm to confuse her reincarnation, Sang Ji, and Bai Qian...

After reading it, Donghua's face was calm but his eyes were filled with murderous intent: "Oh, no wonder we failed. The foxes from Qingqiu are really bold." Then he went to the Ten-Mile Peach Forest.

Mortal

Ten years later

Qilin Hall

Ministers: "Your Majesty, long live your Majesty!"

Lin Xi: "Stand up"

Ministers: "Thank you, Your Majesty"

Lin Xi: "My dear ministers, I am deeply moved by your diligence and dedication in serving Dayu over the past ten years. When I was young, I saw you all busying around for Dayu, and I wanted to share some of the burden with you, but I was too young to do anything.

Now that I have some ability, you dear ministers can take some time to rest. What do you think?"

A minister said: "Your Majesty, you can't do that. You are still young."

Ministers: "Your Majesty, please reconsider."

Lin Xi smiled and said, "My dear ministers, please get up quickly. First, take a look at the gift I gave you, the ingot."

Zheyan, who was standing invisible not far from Linxi, smiled and said, "This little emperor is interesting. He wanted to rule the country himself, but he was tricked into giving him gifts instead of getting angry. Donghua, what do you think the little emperor will give?" Donghua glanced at Zheyan and continued to look at Linxi.

The ministers held the memorials in their hands with puzzled expressions. Lin Xi smiled and said, "My dear ministers, why are you just standing there? Come and take a look."

When everyone opened the memorial and saw the evidence of themselves or their relatives' corruption, bribery, and embezzlement of land, they trembled with fear and broke out in cold sweats.

He immediately knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty: "I am waiting for the death penalty."

Lin Xi's smile remained undimmed. "Does the Left Prime Minister think I can take charge of the government?"

Left Prime Minister Li Yue: "Your Majesty is wise and virtuous, and you can rule the country yourself."

Then he glanced at the ministers and asked, "Right Prime Minister, General, Ministers of the Six Departments, and all my dear ministers, what do you think?"

Ministers: "Your Majesty is wise, and we second your proposal."

Lin Xi seemed to have just seen everyone kneeling: "It's so cold, why are you kneeling, my dear ministers? Get up quickly, what if you catch a cold?"

Ministers: "..."

Lin Xi: "When you return, return the embezzled money to the national treasury and the misappropriated land to the people. Then apologize and deduct three months' salary, and this matter will be over. If you do it again, don't blame me for being ruthless."

The ministers said: "We thank the king for his wisdom."

Lin Xi: "I have looked at the taxation over the years and feel that the tax law needs to be revised..." Then he repeated the framework of the new tax law.

The Imperial Censor said: "Your Majesty, this is unacceptable. How can you disregard the ancestral laws?"

A minister said: "Your Majesty, please think twice. This is a strategy that will bring chaos to the country."

Ministers stood up to object one after another. Lin Xi looked at the left and right prime ministers and the six ministers who stood still, his eyes cold but with a smile on his face: "Thousands of years later, I will still be an ancestor, and what I say is also the ancestral etiquette. I will give you one more chance. Think carefully before speaking, and don't regret it because of a hasty statement."

The ministers' quest for evidence of their own and their relatives' crimes was instantly over. Of course, there was also a "warrior." The Imperial Censor said: "Your Majesty, if you insist on this, I will have no choice but to retire."

Several ministers stood up and echoed: "We second this motion."

Lin Xi: “Okay.”

The Imperial Censor, Lord Wang, and the other two lords who seconded Lord Wang's motion were instantly paralyzed.

Three people: "Your Majesty,"

Lin Xi smiled and said, "Why, the three adults are unwilling to beg for their bones again?

Could it be that what you just said was false, and you are just trying to force me to submit?"

The three of them trembled when they heard this: "Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

Lin Xi: "Where are the Jinwu Guards? Why don't you strip the official robes, hats, and jade belts of the three Imperial Censors, Wang, Liu, and Lin?"

The Jinwu Guards started to strip the three men of their official robes, hats, and jade belts, and the three men began to break free.
