Joy of Life: I am a Han Dynasty succubus, and I rebel from the beginning

Chapter 263: Emperor Qing's admiration, Chen Pingping's self-explanation

Liu Hong noticed that there was light rain in the sky and a smile finally appeared on his face.

His vision went dark and he fainted.

In the last moment of his coma, he was still complaining about God. It turned out that he had traveled to this world not to kill him.

"Grand Governor!"

Ji Xin exclaimed, quickly threw away the sandbag in his hand, picked up Liu Hong, and rushed towards Hengzhou City.

"The Grand Commander has fainted. Where is the doctor? Where is the doctor?"

Hengzhou City fell into chaos again.

Although the flood is gradually subsiding now, what if Liu Hong falls?

Does it mean that in the future, the soldiers of Wuzhou camp will have to risk their lives every year? Isn't this just courting death?
Not only that, it is necessary to re-manage the Yangtze River, build river embankments and many branch dikes, and contact the aristocratic families.

All of these require the Grand Commander to use his power and prestige to personally suppress the injustice.

After all, if one wants to manage the Yangtze River and prevent major floods for decades, it would probably cost tens of millions of taels.

This is just the cost of hiring migrant workers and adding the cost of construction.

The fields around the Yangtze River were cultivated not only by wealthy families but also by common people secretly.

Could it be that they would just kill them all with one blow and confiscate all of them? Even if they discussed and negotiated, it would basically cost several million taels of silver.

In addition, there are soldiers who risked their lives to fill the gap caused by the flood and evacuate the victims along the coast.

These expenses almost bankrupted the capital of Grand Commander Anton, who had to clear out the accumulation of most of the aristocratic families in Jiangbei Road over the past few decades.

The news of the Grand Commander's fainting spread like a plague across the three routes of Andong and even the entire world.

Some are happy, some are sad.

However, the top families in Kyoto and Emperor Qing were still filled with joy.

Emperor Qing has always prided himself on not showing his emotions, but at this moment he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

In a good mood, he favored several palace maids in succession, hoping to give birth to another dragon heir.

"Liu Hong is actually quite capable and a very good person."

Emperor Qing sighed with heartfelt emotion.

At the very least, even though he was a grandmaster, he did not dare to risk his life to block the breach and mobilize 100,000 soldiers.

Soldiers are the guarantee for defending his supreme power.

The victims below are dead, so let them die. At most, we can kill a few people, hold those responsible accountable, and quell public grievances.

If the army is gone, isn't Liu Hong afraid that the people below will tear him to pieces?

He is not a grandmaster!
To be honest, even if Emperor Qing and Liu Hong are enemies.

Emperor Qing couldn't help but admire Liu Hong's heroic feat. If he wasn't a god, it would be impossible for him to do that.

But no matter how much he admires Emperor Qing, he will not stop using underhanded tactics.

While you are sick, I will kill you!
Although Emperor Qing and Liu Hong were still nominally the monarch and his subject, it was impossible for them to take any offensive action.

What's more, Liu Hong is not dead yet! The dirty information in his hand is enough for Wu Zhu to seek revenge on Emperor Qing.

However, destroying what Liu Hong cares about with his own hands is also a good choice.

"Send it to Chen Pingping!"

Emperor Qing waved his hand and a smile gradually appeared on his face.

In the eyes of these dignitaries, Liu Hong rashly organized a trial of 800 people just to win the favor of the bigwigs of Ye Qingmei's era.

But Emperor Qing knew exactly what was going on and waited until after the battle of Dadong Mountain.

Even if his past scandals were made public, Chen Pingping and others would not do anything to him anymore.

The huge benefits of defeating Northern Qi were enough to reward more than a dozen marquises with ten thousand households.

In the face of huge interests, what does the insignificant past matter?

Chen Pingping pushed the heavy wheelchair towards Emperor Qing, his face looking somewhat puzzling.

He once hated Emperor Qing so much for killing Ye Qingmei.

She is the only woman who does not despise him for being a eunuch and treats him as a sister.

The two words "Pingping" in her name were changed by Ye Qingmei.

During that time, Ye Qingmei was like the white moonlight in his dull life.

she is dead...

Chen Pingping felt a heart-wrenching pain sweeping over him. After discovering through layers of investigation that Emperor Qing was the mastermind behind the incident, he spent decades cultivating rebels in various parts of Qing State and planned the action that made Emperor Qing deserted by his friends and relatives.

When Liu Hong held a trial meeting of 800 people, he put into practice the concept of "everyone is king" as written on the monument outside the procuratorate.

Chen Pingping suddenly became scared.

He was not afraid of death, as he didn't have many years to live anyway.

But he is afraid of the power and fame he has gained through all these years of hard work.

In those various trial meetings, it was not worth mentioning at all, and his lifelong efforts were casually denied.

Until this moment, Chen Pingping, who was staying in Chen Garden, suddenly woke up and burst into tears.

It turns out... even if Ye Qingmei didn't die at the hands of Emperor Qing and the aristocratic families, she would die at the hands of him and Fan Jian in the future.

Because they have already climbed to positions of power, they will never allow people at the bottom of society to gain power or dictate what they do.

In the imperial study, Emperor Qing and Chen Pingping looked at each other after many years and restored their former trust.

A faint smile appeared on Emperor Qing's face.

"Chen Pingping!"

"Chen is here!"

Chen Pingping lowered his head and said nothing.

"I will not spare any of those unruly people in Jiaozhou! Calculating the time, we should have taken action by now."

"Go and see Liu Hong in Wuzhou Camp and tell him the good news."

Emperor Qing's calm tone was filled with unquestionable dominance.

Those Jiaozhou soldiers who disobeyed the order, those members of the trial assembly, and the people of Jiaozhou City who had their first taste of power.

He would not spare any of them! Even officials.

Isn’t it good to live an honest life?
Even if you can't survive, dying quietly is also a good choice.

Why bother trying so hard to climb up? There are only so many positions of power. If you dare to reach out, Emperor Qing will kill all of them.

He is the emperor! Due to the battle of Dadong Mountain, he cannot take action against Liu Hong for the time being.

But what are the people and soldiers of Jiaozhou City?
Chen Pingping's expression changed slightly.

No wonder his spies in the Supervisory Council reported that Yan Xiaoyi led the Shence Army northward.

The remaining 40,000 troops from the Cangzhou camp marched towards Dongshan Road.

Originally, Chen Pingping thought that Emperor Qing had fallen out with him and couldn't wait to take action against Liu Hong.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Qing's ultimate goal was to kill the eight hundred members of the Trial Assembly in Jiaozhou City and the four thousand Jiaozhou soldiers.

Thinking of this, Chen Pingping's heart turned cold, and the idea of ​​reconciling with Emperor Qing disappeared in an instant.

These are all citizens of Qing Kingdom.

Emperor Qing was afraid that the lower classes would give their support and take over power, so he just wielded the butcher knife without saying a word?

This time, Emperor Qing still had no reason.

Because he was the emperor, his word was final and no one could oppose him.

"Chen Pingping, do you accept the order?"

Emperor Qing's smile remained unchanged as he looked at Chen Pingping.

The common people of the world, even the aristocratic families, are nothing but pigs and dogs! Only the royal family of the Li family can be considered human beings.

Chen Pingping felt a chill in his heart and lowered his head even more.

"The minister obeys the order!"

Chen Pingping led the only 500 remaining black cavalrymen of the Supervisory Council without caring about his disabled self.

They galloped across the night and rushed to the Wuzhou camp on Jiangbei Road.

Liu Hong just felt that he had a very long dream. In the dream, countless people were calling his name, but he could not hear the voice clearly.

When Youyou woke up, Ergouzi, Ji Xin, Bai Lang and others looked at her anxiously.

Looking back, Chen Pingping, who looked even older, was looking at him with a complicated expression.

Liu Hong drank a few sips of water, regained some strength, and waved his hand.

"You guys go down first. Dean Chen has come all the way from Kyoto to Wuzhou. He must have something important to tell me."

After hearing Liu Hong's words, Chen Pingping's eyes dimmed inexplicably.
