Chapter 226: Being named King of Xia
Although Huo Xiangkong said that he had asked Guanyin to go to the underworld to invite Emperor Tang Li Shimin to return to his soul, the civil and military officials were half-believing and half-doubted, for two reasons: 1. I have never heard of any king who was resurrected from the dead since ancient times. 2. Jingwu Hall has been conducting so-called military exercises on a large scale in various places for several days. In the eyes of the officials, this exercise is a fake recruitment of the army, which is true.
In fact, for the sake of the stability of the Tang Dynasty, Huo Xiangkong not only mobilized all the power that could be used in various places, the Yanhuang government also sent Yanhuang think tanks and professional talents from all walks of life into Jingwu Hall to assist Huo Xiangkong in quick understanding and grasp the situation of the court. At the same time, the relevant issues experts also assumed the responsibility of submitting suggestions, and these suggestions will eventually be put together with the suggestions of all officials for Huo Xiangkong to refer to.
Huo Xiangkong seems to be idle these days, but in fact he is not idle every day, and his spirit is always tense, and sometimes he even thinks about government affairs when he sleeps. For Huo Xiangkong, this so-called emperor is really not done by humans, and seems to be the one with the most power in the world. According to Huo Xiangkong's idea, the emperor is actually the most pitiful, because he is surrounded by busy government offices most of the time. In addition, there is basically no so-called freedom for emperors in previous dynasties. Of course, some people will say that you are the emperor and do whatever you want. Who dares to stop you. In fact, this idea is very superficial. Unless you want to be the king of the destruction of the country, you don't really care about anything. Moreover, if the emperor is young, there is a queen mother or something on it. If you go too far, you might be ruined.
When Li Shimin knew that everything was fine when he was away, he felt relieved and felt a little uncomfortable, because after learning about Huo Xiangkong's detailed actions these days, Li Shimin found that Huo Xiangkong did not do worse than himself, and in some places it was even better than himself. Moreover, Huo Xiangkong has been issuing imperial edicts in his own name these days.
Under normal circumstances, even if his son is his concubine, Li Shimin would never tolerate him. However, this person can only be looked up to him. As an emperor, Li Shimin has always been above ten thousand people, but now there is one more person on his head. That person is: Huo Xiangkong.
Li Shimin is back. Logically speaking, this regime should be handed over to Li Shimin immediately. However, Huo Xiangkong said that it would take at least half a month to hand over the regime, and in this half month, Huo Xiangkong would still lead the imperial power.
Li Shimin was very angry after hearing this, but thinking about Huo Xiangkong's current power and power. Li Shimin had to say with gratitude: "This is the best. I can also take a good rest in this half month."
In fact, Huo Xiangkong's idea was to hand over the imperial power to him since Li Shimin came back. However, the relevant departments of Jingwu Hall and Yanhuang Kingdom submitted to Huo Xiangkong to take this opportunity to formulate a special channel for Jingwu Hall and Yanhuang Kingdom to enter politics. The security and stability of the Tang Dynasty are now at risk to the Yanhuang Kingdom and even China. Therefore, it is necessary to support officials of the factions such as Jingwu Hall and Yanhuang Kingdom in the Tang Dynasty.
Of course, it is necessary to eliminate some officials and generals who were hostile to Jingwu Hall and Yanhuang Kingdom during this period. In just half a month, all officials in the main positions opposed to Jingwu Hall were transferred or arrested in various names.
Although the troops in various parts of the Tang Dynasty were still in charge of the original Tang generals, Jingwu Hall had a special right: the right to conscription. Jingwu Hall had the right to recruit players as soldiers, and the number of conscription was not controlled by the Tang Dynasty. At the same time, in order to give face to the Tang Dynasty, these people who control the player's army were nominally the generals of the Tang Dynasty. But in fact, if the Tang Dynasty wanted to mobilize them, they had to negotiate through the Jingwu Hall.
Huo Xiangkong only did one thing in government affairs. Jingwutang has the privilege of recommending talents to the Tang Dynasty. After passing the relevant exams, the talents recommended by Jingwutang can assign the same responsibilities as the Tang Dynasty NPC according to their own abilities.
In addition to these, the cunning Wu Meiniang also collected evidence of corruption and bribery by the chief officials of all levels of the Tang Dynasty. Even if there are officials who regard money as dirt, they cannot escape the temptation of beauty. These women were specially hired by Wu Meiniang to train in senior Qingluo, and they are very good at pleasing men. Not to mention the others, there is a Wu Meiniang person next to the prince Li Zhi. After arrangement, this person is now Li Zhi's personal maid. Although Li Zhi is still young, he can still use various means to guide and control.
Most of the personnel Wu Meiniang told Huo Xiangkong and handed the list to the Jingwutang headquarters for filing. However, Wu Meiniang hid it. Wu Meiniang had no idea of betraying Huo Xiangkong, but she wanted to leave some trump cards for herself out of her cautious personality.
Half a month later, Huo Xiangkong trusted Chen Nuo to hand over the regime. Of course, General Wang, who was supported by the rights in this operation, wanted to leave. Huo Xiangkong also wanted to leave with hundreds of innate soldiers. Huo Xiangkong felt very distressed about this, but General Wang's name was also very sufficient: Please give up and concentrate on comprehending the great way.
On the first day of Li Shimin's regaining the imperial power, all officials became unaccustomed to the appearance of Li Shimin. Although Huo Xiangkong had only once in the last two days, he was not polite to sit on Li Shimin's dragon throne, all officials were not allowed to kneel down, and as long as they did not attack Huo Xiangkong personally, they would be exempted from any criminal responsibility if they simply discussed politics.
When Li Shimin came back, some of them knelt down and shouted long live, while others were slow to react, but they saw others kneeling down and then kneeled down. So Li Shimin found that the neat court ceremony in the past became very scattered, which made Li Shimin frown.
"If you have something to report, you will leave the court without anything to do." The eunuch beside Li Shimin shouted loudly.
When Huo Xiangkong went to court, he was said to have been called by Wu Meiniang, the Queen of Eternals in the history of players. Compared with that delicate beauty, this eunuch is simply disgusting.
"I will report to Your Majesty, I will report this." The Prime Minister said after he came out to salute Li Shimin respectfully.
"My dear, please speak." When Li Shimin thought that the Prime Minister must have spoken for him.
However, Li Shimin is destined to be disappointed today. After receiving Li Shimin's recognition, the Prime Minister said: "This time His Majesty can revive his soul from the underworld, and the Tang Dynasty can remain stable as before. All of this is inseparable from Huo Xiangkong, the head of the Jingwu Hall...."
"Although your Majesty's affairs have been hidden. However, this kind of news has been heard in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty and the aristocratic families. This time, for the stability of the Tang Dynasty, the Jingwu Hall was fully dispatched, and the Monkey King, Marshal Tianpeng and even Guanyin Bodhisattva were involved. Moreover, Huo Xiangkong was also his Majesty's sworn brother. Therefore, I asked Your Majesty to appoint Huo Xiangkong as the King of the opposite sex."
"Please give the title of Huo Xiang to the king of the opposite sex." After the prime minister made a report, all the officials knelt down and reviewed.
Li Shimin's face immediately pulled down, and he even had the urge to leave on the spot, but in the end Li Shimin endured it, "Transfer my will: I will grant Huo Xiangkong the King of Xia, and his fief is: Aolai Country."
Ding. System Announcement: Li Shimin, the Emperor of Tang of Pangu, issued an order to grant Huo Xiang an empty position as King Xia, with his fief: Aolai Kingdom.
Ding, the system prompts: Li Shimin granted you the King of Xia and the fief is the Ao Lai Kingdom. Please choose whether to accept the fief?
"yes."
Ding, the system prompts: The original king of Aolai Kingdom does not accept the orders of Emperor Tang. Aolai Kingdom announced his separation from the Jingwu Hall.
In fact, Huo Xiangkong had already thought about this matter. Li Shimin put his fief in Aolai Country just to let the king of Aolai Country make trouble for him. Huo Xiangkong thought that the king of Aolai Country would be able to hand over power obediently, but he did not expect that he would choose to betray him.
Immediately, Jingwu Hall held an emergency meeting to discuss the matter. Wu Meiniang was in charge of Aolai Country before. So although this matter had nothing to do with her, he had some responsibility, so Huo Xiangkong asked Wu Meiniang to speak first.
"Lord, we have basically controlled the Aolai country. As long as the lord gives the order within seven days, the rebels of Aolai country can be completely quelled."
"I hope this matter will not affect the living order of ordinary people in Aolai Country, after all, there will be our territory in the future." Huo Xiangkong frowned.
"Mei Niang understands."
"In addition, Bajie is responsible for supporting him. If there are any hidden and powerful characters in Aolai Country, I will leave them to you."
"The old pig understands."
With the last cooperation with Yanhuang Kingdom, Jingwutang still chose to cooperate with the Yanhuang government this time. Although Jingwutang can solve it unilaterally, the organizational ability of Yanhuang Kingdom is much stronger than Jingwutang. Therefore, the two sides agreed that Jingwutang is responsible for clearing off villain forces, and the Yanhuang government is responsible for the police's responsibilities. In addition, it is to provide public opinion and legal support for Jingwutang in the real world.
The King of Aolai originally thought that Jingwu Hall would be an outsider no matter what it means. As long as he hides himself, the people of Aolai will definitely stand on his side, but the King of Aolai is too arrogant to him.
It turned out that Wu Meiniang had already installed personnel around the King of Aolai Kingdom. All the whereabouts of the King of Aolai Kingdom were under Wu Meiniang's control. However, Wu Meiniang did not rashly get rid of King Aolai, but used the inside line to grasp the whereabouts of the King of Aolai Kingdom's confidants one by one, and then sent personnel to ambush one by one and behead them.
In just two days, Jingwutang has achieved comprehensive control in Aolai with the help of the Yanhuang government, and the people of Aolai were also told that because the Aolai king had left the neutral camp and colluded with overseas cult organizations, they would now fully eliminate the power of Aolai king. During this period, the entire Aolai country would impose a curfew after the nightfall, until the rebellion was completely eliminated. At the same time, the relevant departments also promoted the appointment of Huo Xiangkong as King of Xia.
In order to obtain Mingxin's support and comprehensively integrate suggestions from all aspects, the people of Aolai were told that the new king was in power and Aolai would reduce taxes by 10%. In addition, the entire Aolai country implemented a law of killing people and paying for their lives, and no one had the privilege of avoiding death after killing people.
Although 10% of the tax revenue seems to be small, this regulation is required to be implemented immediately. This is a real benefit to the people of Aolai Country. In addition, the police station just established by the Xinwang is also a department for practical things. These days, theft, inappropriate, robbery and other criminals have been arrested one after another.
Moreover, the sentencing is more serious. In the words of the new constable who call themselves police, it is now a severe crackdown, and it will be like this in a special period. When the rebellion is eliminated and the society is stable, everything will return to normal. In the future, the laws in all aspects will be improved so that any criminal act can be executed in accordance with the law.
When Wu Meiniang was clearing the rebellious forces of Aolai State, Huo Xiangkong was discussing the issue of the Aolai State system. Some said that there were co-organizations, some said that there were separation of powers, and some said that there were monarchies. In short, it was noisy and uneasy.
Finally, Huo Xiangkong was impatient and set the tone: the monarchy system will not be carried out for a short period of time. Huo Xiangkong's tone will definitely be made, and the propaganda tone of CCTV in Yanhuang was also set. So what the audience saw was the benefit of Jingwu Hall not changing any system in a short period of time: taking over the regime quickly, and the support of the local clans... In short, in the eyes of experts, if various institutional changes are carried out now, there will definitely be various hidden dangers. Jingwu Hall's move is so wise, and Huo Xiangkong's head is so wise.
On the fifth day of the betrayal of the King of Aolai, Wu Meiniang, after mastering the conclusive news of almost all the main leaders of the Aolai rebels, took action at 4 o'clock this morning. In order to ensure that the trip was foolproof and the legitimacy, Huo Xiangkong also invited thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals from the Heavenly Palace to support the venue.
In fact, the king of Aolai Kingdom did not need heavenly soldiers and generals. Huo Xiangkong asked Sun Wukong, the Monkey King, to lead thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals to float around the sky of Aolai Kingdom. The monkey head was originally the master who liked to make trouble. He thought that thousands of heavenly soldiers were not majestic enough, so he used his monkey hair to transform into tens of thousands of heavenly soldiers, so that these heavenly soldiers led some monkey hair into heaven to various places in Aolai Kingdom to show off their power.
The ordinary people of Aolai Country naturally don’t know that those were transformed by Sun Wukong’s monkey hair. They really thought that there were so many heavenly soldiers and generals to support the scene, and they all knelt down and kowtowed. The Jade Emperor, who was sitting on the throne of the Heavenly Court, was amused and laughed when he saw that the monkey head had changed so many monkey hairs to show off his power.
On the sixth day, after a day of fierce battle, the war finally ended. In terms of the overall results, Jingwutang was a great victory, but Wu Meiniang was not satisfied with it. First, Jingwutang had many good players killed in this battle, and second, the king of Aolai actually committed suicide. You should know that when Guanyin came back, he said when talking about the underworld King of Hell: This person can bend and stretched, and he was also the lord's old enemy in his previous life. Therefore, you should pay special attention to the ghosts in the future. It is best to capture the ghosts of hostile forces. Now he actually let the ghosts of the king of Aolai leave. This is no less than a defeat for Wu Meiniang with a perfectionist personality.
At that moment, Wu Meiniang went to apologize to Huo Xiangkong, but our Miss Wu did not apologize in front of so many people, but lowered her head and said with a little coquettish charm when there were only two of them.
Huo Xiangkong didn't care about this, but waved and said, "Mei Niang, you are here just in time. Help me to help me with these government affairs. These many things have made me feel overwhelmed."
Wu Meiniang glanced at it and found the personnel appointment and removal of the main officials of Shi Aolai Country. She immediately jumped out and said with a smile: "I am the Empress Wu Zetian. You should ask someone else to advise you on this sensitive government affairs."
"Hey. I'm the king now. Do you dare not listen to me?" Huo Xiangkong walked forward and said intimidation.
Wu Meiniang slowly retreated with a smile, pursing her lips and finally retreated to the wall. However, Wu Meiniang was not afraid at all. Instead, she looked smiling and said, "What do you want to do?"
"Because you are disobedient, I want to punish you."
"Hmph, I'm not afraid of you." After saying that, Wu Meiniang took the initiative to kiss Huo Xiangkong's lips.
"Uh, under normal circumstances, I should be kissing you gently now."
"Average women are like that, but I am Wu Meiniang, and I prefer to take the initiative." After that, Wu Meiniang kissed Huo Xiangkong again.
"Do you know that this is inappropriate?" Huo Xiangkong said depressedly.
"Is this considered impolite? Then what is this?" After saying that, Wu Meiniang grabbed Huo Xiangkong's friend with her jade hand.
Huo Xiangkong could not bear it, and he thought that he would eat Wu Meiniang here. As for the empress, what about it, now only the beauty Wu Meiniang is in front of him, but there is no empress Wu Zetian. However, at this moment, Wu Meiniang stopped and left, then giggled and ran out of Huo Xiangkong's room, leaving behind the stupid Huo Xiangkong.
After going off the line in the evening, Huo Xiangkong hugged Huang Xin, who had already prepared dishes and prepared dishes, from behind. Huang Xin didn't care at first, but soon became so embarrassed that his ears turned red. Feeling the heat behind, Huang Xin twisted and moved, but Huo Xiangkong was too strong but couldn't get rid of it. "Sexy wolf, have he been played by a beauty in the game again?"
"Wu Meiniang molested me..." Huo Xiangkong said everything he had just said to Huang Xin.
"Hmph, when Wu Meiniang gets angry, I want to vent my anger. What do you think of me? A woman from Qing* Tower?" After saying that, Huang Xin stepped on Huo Xiangkong's feet heavily.
Then a scream rang throughout the studio. Unfortunately, the room in the studio was absolutely soundproof and could not be felt by the outside world. Huo Xiangkong was depressed. He thought that a career-style beauty like Huang Xin would not care about these, but he didn't expect that Huang Xin was so jealous.
Huang Xin didn't give Huo Xiangkong a good look that night, but don't forget it. Huang Xin, who has always been wearing ordinary inner clothes, wore a sexy inner clothes that night. The almost transparent inner clothes looked at Huo Xiangkong's eyes were almost protruding, but the girl sat on the sofa for a while, and then twisted her butt into her own room when Huo Xiangkong couldn't help but pounce on her, and even locked it.
Although my friend was uncomfortable, Huo Xiangkong's current identity was different, so he didn't want to ask someone to vent his feelings casually. This thing was so good at that time, and the sequelae of causing love debt afterwards were very great, but it was destined to be unstoppable tonight.
