Back Off, Let Me Come

"If Shousheng and Shaoxuan are used as role models, they will work harder." Hearing that the soldiers were very motivated to learn, Shen Tang asked curiously, and then found out the reason, and chatted with a smile, "A person studies literature from childhood to adolescence. During the most golden period, it is difficult to learn things as you get older, and the efficiency is far less than when you were young. You will not be successful in studying literature, but practicing martial arts is just right."

Wen Xin’s threshold is too high.

In comparison, Wu Dan is easier.

Soldiers are too old. Although they cannot reach the upper limit, they still have the opportunity to gather courage. Even if he is just a low-ranking official, his survivability is much higher than that of ordinary people. Of course, there is also a lot of military merit and luck required to achieve this.

This can only rely on luck and fighting on the battlefield.

Shen Tang will not treat any soldier who fights for her badly, regardless of his or her origin, age, or talent. In the military camp or on the battlefield, only strength and military exploits are considered. All rewards are based on merit, regardless of anything else.

Lin Feng said: "Brother Shousheng and Sister Shaoxuan are not role models that can be openly publicized."

This involves the secret of my lord.

Shen Tang thought so too.

"One day we can be honest."

Although it is said that a person can survive ninety-nine times.

But it's not her style to keep silent.

Lin Feng's eyes lit up, he nodded heavily, and said resolutely: "If it is my lord, it will definitely come true."

Shen Tang said amusedly: "Are you so confident?"

"Of course! My lord is the most special!"

Her lord is the first female literary scholar, and no daughter has ever had this ability before. The existence of the lord may not be able to help all the women in the world escape from the sea of ​​suffering, but it can help them ignite a small flame.

As long as the fire does not go out, there is hope.

Shen Tang joked amusingly: "It's amazing. Who did Ling De learn from? Why don't you become Du Wei?"

"What is Du Wei?"

Shen Tang thought: "I just like one person."

Lin Feng admitted: "I really only like the Lord."

It turns out that this is called "Poison Wei", and my knowledge has increased again.

Shen Tang: "..."

Inexplicably, she felt like she was teaching a bad child, and Shen Tang felt guilty, fearing that Chu Wuhui, the old father, would chop her with a knife. Gu Chi was taking a nap with his arms crossed not far away. Hearing this voice, he couldn't help but hum. Lin Feng still needs to be taught a lesson?

The executioner would give a thumbs up and say "professional" when seeing this child's neatness in beheading people.

On the second day and night, another tribe came.

On the seventh day of the march, they made a sneak attack on the third tribe.

The three key words to take action are fast, ruthless and accurate.

at the same time--

A storm was also brewing in Shiwu Royal Court, and together with the destruction of the three tribes, it turned the world upside down.

Since that day, after receiving some kind advice from his confidants, Su Shiyilu had to admit the facts.

He led his people and rushed to the royal court.

Due to its special habits, Shiwu does not have a fixed city residence, but this generation of kings is very ambitious and wants to be in line with other countries on the mainland in many places. After the king's tribe won the victory, he took over the most fertile and prosperous place in Shiwu, where he built a majestic and towering royal city. After more than ten years of construction, it is indeed bustling.

Commodities are traded here.

Businessmen come and go frequently.

The royal city was prosperous from top to bottom, with a population of nearly 200,000 at its peak, and many Shiwu nobles lived here for a long time.

Su Shiyilu felt something bad as soon as he entered the city.

It wasn't that there was an ambush nearby, but that everyone's attitude towards him was far less enthusiastic and respectful than before.

He remained calm and pressed down his thoughts.

After entering the city, he rested for a while and then went to see the king.

Unexpectedly, he was stopped just at the door.

He said: "I have something to ask you to see your Majesty."

The servant said: "The king has given orders, but no one will be seen."

"I don't see you either?"

"No one in sight."

Su Shiyilu's heart beat.

The treatment received at the Royal Court this time was completely different from the last time.

He sent someone to write a letter to his sister, and this time he met the queen very smoothly. However, the queen in front of her was completely different from the graceful and luxurious sister in her memory. There was a look of tiredness and haggard between her brows.

Su Shiyilu became angry all of a sudden.

He blurted out: "Mei, who is making you unhappy? Tell my brother, I will kill him for you!"

The queen wiped away her tears and said in an arrogant tone: "Kill, kill, kill, can you still kill the king?"

Su Shiyilu was shocked: "Is it the king?"

The queen sighed heavily and said: "My brother doesn't know something. A few days ago, the news that my brother was escorted unluckily and was brutally killed by bandits spread throughout the royal court. Not long after, someone else intervened, saying that you accepted bribes and monopolized military power. …”

Su Shiyilu's "death" was almost heard on the front foot. The king was heartbroken and wanted to give Su Shiyilu a posthumous glory, but a bunch of opposing ministers jumped out. I don't know where they collected the evidence, but every piece of evidence was against him. The king listened with a livid face all afternoon, and his already old and frail body could not withstand the anxiety, and he fell ill all of a sudden.

Although the news that Su Shiyilu was still alive came back quickly, there were even more criticisms from the court.

In order to calm the public outrage, an investigation had to be ordered.

Even the queen received cold looks several times.

"Is it okay to accept bribes?"

Su Shiyilu secretly scolded others for being troublesome.

He always seeks benefits when doing things for others. As an important minister, even if he refused to accept it, there would always be people offering him flowers in different ways, especially wealthy merchants who wanted to seek protection and do business in the royal court.

Even if he doesn't accept the merchants' money, some will.

Does your Majesty know about this?

Haha, it couldn’t be clearer.

The king's private treasury can reach its current scale indispensable for his contribution. Don't you know where the money comes from?

As for monopolizing military power...

That is even more nonsense.

He is the king's most trusted brother and minister. The latter sits in the royal court. As his shadow, he fights for him on the battlefield, subdues those thorn-headed tribes, or when food is in short supply, he leads troops to attack Yonggu Pass to seek food and wealth. Overcome difficulties...

He monopolizes military power?

Not to control the military power for the king?

If the military power is left in the hands of others, can the king feel at ease?

"Mei, don't worry about this." Su Shiyilu asked with a stern face, "Do you remember which gossips are the leaders?"

We have to let them know why the flowers are so red!

The Queen said: "Of course I remember them all."

She didn't rely on her eldest brother to gain a foothold. She had eyes and ears in the previous harem and was well-informed.

She didn't take this matter to heart at first, because the king had always trusted her brother. But this time she got angry and asked people to investigate Su Shiyilu's corruption, bribery and monopolization of military power, which made her quite uneasy.

"Brother, do you think the king is..."

"What is it?"

"How many other bastards do you prefer?"

She had not worried about her son's throne before.

I've been feeling a little worried these past few days.

Su Shiyilu sneered: "Don't worry, sister, no one can take the position of the next king except your children. Whoever dares to reach out will have his hand cut off! The position of king? They are worthy of it! Sister, Apart from this, is there any other news?"

The eldest queen recalled: "Yes, there was news in the morning that two tribes under Lao Si's tent were taken away."

"Being picked up?"

"No one will be left alive!" The queen didn't know the details, but that didn't prevent her from guessing the identity of the murderer. "Brother, which one of them do you think did it?"
