The court meeting dispersed, and Zhao Wenyu and several important officials of the court entered the Eastern Palace and began to discuss the ascension of the prince's ascension to the throne.

Since Emperor Yongchang was still alive, the prince was a little anxious and decided to hold the throne ceremony on January 15th after twenty days.

The new emperor's reign was named "Chongxing", which means the Dagan Dynasty and revitalize it again.

Next, the Ministry of Rites was busy with the throne ceremony, and the entire court had no time to take care of it. It seemed that the people who did not know the capital were living in dire straits.

The New Year has passed, and on the fifteenth day of January, Emperor Chongxing held a ceremony to ascension ceremony in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

When the new emperor ascended the throne, he began to enthrone the ministers, nobles, and many meritorious people, one by one, were rewarded.

As the first meritorious official who supported Emperor Chongxing to the throne, He Yuansheng also won the title of Marquis of Changning.

However, Emperor Chongxing rewarded the ministers, which gave Zhao Wenyu, who had just become the chief minister, a headache.

After the throne ceremony, as the prime minister, he naturally had to focus on the government affairs of the court.

But the court had no money and there was still a lot of messes. Emperor Chongxing rewarded the ministers, where did the money come from?

What's more, the victims in the Gyeonggi area have not been resettled yet, and now it is the coldest time. If the court does not issue relief, countless people will probably die.

With a bored mood, Zhao Wenyu came to Dongnuan Pavilion and asked to meet Emperor Chongxing.

In the warm pavilion, Emperor Chongxing, who had just ascended the throne, was wearing a dragon robe and watching the memorial book.

The memorials were filled with compliments from some ministers, which made them feel very happy.

Beside Emperor Chongxing, there are Xiao Dezi and He Yuansheng, but these two have different thoughts and all have their own thoughts.

Xiao Dezi was thinking about how to fight for power, while He Yuansheng was considering when Emperor Chongxing would collect military power and suppress himself, and what reasons he would find to leave Shenjing with the flow!

At this time, Zhao Wenyu arrived and proposed that the court had no money and could not help the people.

After hearing this, Emperor Chongxing suddenly had a headache and his expression was a little irritable.

After being reigned for a long time, he naturally knew the situation of the treasury, but he just had the joy of ascending the throne, which made him subconsciously forget these things.

Now that Zhao Wenyu mentioned this matter, it must be dealt with, otherwise the people in the capital would suffer heavy casualties and he would lose all his face as the new emperor.

Moreover, the rewards from all officials and nobles must be distributed in time, otherwise his prestige will plummet.

Seeing Emperor Chongxing’s headache, He Yuansheng immediately stepped forward a few steps and came to his ear and said, “Your Highness, if you deal with Hou Ying, can you solve the urgent problem?”

Before Emperor Chongxing ascended the throne, He Yuansheng said that he would establish his power with Hou Ying, but he never mentioned it, just waiting for this time.

Because the court had no money, in order to solve the financial difficulties, Emperor Chongxing would definitely use the most ruthless means to deal with Hou Ying. At that time, the Duke of the Fuguo Mansion would be defeated and there would be no chance of turning around again.

"I passed the order, Hou Ying was plotting against the emperor, and was stabbed to death, seized the title of the Duke of the Suiguo's Mansion, and confiscated the house!"

Without any hesitation, Emperor Chongxing immediately issued an order. After all, what Hou Ying did always made him hold a grudge.

"promise!"

He Yuansheng took the order and left, which made Zhao Wenyu, who was ignorant of his true thoughts, feel a little frightened.

Because this behavior is too much like the emperor having no money, he can find an excuse to kill people and seize money.

Hou Ying sat in the study room at the Duke of Fuguo Mansion, looking very nervous.

Because after Emperor Chongxing ascended the throne, he was not included in the imperial edicts of the ministers.

This made Hou Ying, who had experienced many political experiences in three dynasties, feel dangerous.

At this moment, the butler of the Fuguo Duke's Mansion hurriedly ran in and said in a panic: "Duke, the brigade of Jinyiwei, surrounded our mansion. Now he is breaking into the mansion. I can't even stop him!"

Hou Ying's expression changed, and he immediately knew that he was going to be unlucky, so he immediately spoke, "Take the young master away from the secret passage!"

After saying that, he took out a stack of silver notes from the study and handed them over to the butler.

But the housekeeper did not accept it and said with a sad face: "Dude, as soon as the Jinyiwei entered the mansion, he went straight into the back garden and sealed the secret passage!"

The housekeeper is Hou Ying's confidant. Since he saw the Jinyiwei coming to the brigade, he knew that things were not good, so he wanted to prepare early.

However, unexpectedly, the Jinyiwei seemed to know the situation of the Duke of Fuguo's Mansion. After entering the mansion, he first went to the place where the secret passage was located.

Hou Ying was stunned by the butler's words, and then sat on the ground, showing a look of desolation.

Although he didn't know where the problem was, the Jinyiwei came in a fierce manner and even the secret passage was sealed. He was definitely prepared for it.

Thinking of the grudges between him and He Yuansheng, Hou Ying naturally understood that the Duke of Fuguo would probably have a miserable end.

After a while, Hou Yingqiang was energetic and walked out.

In the main courtyard of the Duke's Mansion, He Yuansheng stood in the middle of the yard, watching the Jinyiwei arrest and search the house, and his heart felt infinite emotion.

When he first met Hou Wenjie, the other party was so arrogant. Now that he was not only imprisoned himself, the entire Duke's Mansion of the Assistant Kingdom was completely destroyed. This made He Yuansheng determined to do his best to control his destiny.

"Admiral He, what do you mean!"

When He Yuansheng was thinking about his thoughts, Hou Ying walked out, feeling very calm and turned a blind eye to the chaos in the Duke's Mansion.

"What's the meaning!"

With a sarcastic smile, He Yuansheng said coldly: "Hou Ying plotted against the emperor and rebelled against the emperor. The emperor issued an order. Hou Ying was sentenced to death, the Duke of the Assistant Kingdom seized the title, and the house was confiscated!"

When Hou Ying heard these words, he looked terrified on his face. Although he knew the situation was serious, he did not expect it to be so serious.

"You're the one who did it!"

As he said that, Hou Ying wanted to rush forward and fight with He Yuansheng, but with a large team of Jinyiwei there, how could he succeed?

Soon the Duke of the Assistant Kingdom was pressed to the ground and struggled with excitement.

"The emperor knows that your bets on both ends will have a good result!" He Yuansheng lowered his head and said this.

After a pause, the conversation changed: "Do you remember the incident of sending someone to assassinate He? When you die, in return, I will let Hou Wenjie and your descendants accompany you."

"ah……"

Hou Ying shouted, but was unable to break free from control, and only injured herself and was in a mess.

"Send death!"

Looking at Hou Ying's miserable situation, He Yuansheng did not torture him after he breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon, the Jinyiwei took the prepared white silk and put it around Hou Ying's neck.

In a short while, this mighty Duke of the Assistant Kingdom died in front of He Yuansheng.

That night, He Yuansheng came to meet Emperor Chongxing with a list of house searches.

"What a Hou Ying, he is even richer than me!" After reading the list, Emperor Chongxing spoke coldly.

Then he thought of something, a smile appeared on his face, and said, "The court's urgent need has finally been solved!"

He Yuansheng did not respond, and lowered his head and listened to Emperor Chongxing talking to himself, but from the other party's tone, he felt that the somewhat cowardly prince was gradually disappearing.

As soon as Emperor Chongxing finished speaking, Xiao Dezi spoke: "Emperor, although this money is too much, it can only solve the urgent problem. The court should open up new sources of wealth!"

Emperor Chongxing narrowed his eyes and asked lightly: "What do you mean!"

"The matter of officials and gentry paying food together can be done tentatively!"

Xiao Dezi loved power, but everything about the eunuch came from the emperor, so the court had no money, so he naturally had to help find a solution.

"He Qing thought what!"

Although Emperor Chongxing had this intention, the last opposition from the civil servant group made him a little worried.

"Your Majesty, you should discuss this kind of major matter in the court!"

If it were before, He Yuansheng would definitely persuade him, after all, the emperor, who had not yet established a foundation, wanted to collect food from officials and gentry, and it would be strange if there was no big trouble.

But now, He Yuansheng has other ideas, so he naturally won’t talk too much, so as not to offend Xiao Dezi for nothing and make Emperor Chongxing dissatisfied.

He Yuansheng's answer made Emperor Chongxing raise his eyebrows, wanting to say something, but he didn't speak.

"Your Majesty, I am admiring the Beijing camp, and there are so many things to do. I can't help but continue to take charge of the Jinyiwei. Please ask the emperor to resign as the commander of the Jinyiwei!"

Resigning from the commander of the Jinyiwei was a deal with Xiao Dezi. Now Emperor Yongchang wants to collect food together with officials and gentry, which will definitely trigger a huge rebound, and Daxing's imperial prison is inevitable.

By then, the Jinyiwei will definitely be regarded as a thorn in the side by the civil servant group, so He Yuansheng will naturally throw out this hot potato earlier.

"It was my negligence that made He Qing overworked!"

The joy on Emperor Yongchang's face flashed. He had long been determined to deprive He Yuansheng of power. Now He Yuansheng has taken the initiative to propose it, which makes it easier for him to act.

After thinking for a while, he spoke, "I'm sure. Leave the affairs of the Jinyiwei to Xiao Dezi first!"

There were not many people available in Emperor Yongchang’s hands, and the Jinyiwei was another sharp blade, so he naturally had to hand it over to someone he could rest assured.

"I obey the order!"

Xiao Dezi immediately took the order and glanced at He Yuansheng again, with a little satisfaction on his face.

After leaving the palace, He Yuansheng went to Ye Yumeng's courtyard and asked lightly: "There is news from Chen Rui!"

"Not yet!" Ye Yumeng replied.

"Today I resigned from the position of commander of the Jinyiwei to the emperor, so Chen Rui's side should be faster!"

When preparing to operate a place, he naturally had to make a good plan, so He Yuansheng chose Zhejiang as the foundation and sent Chen Rui to Zhejiang in advance to serve as the Qianhu of Jinyiwei.

After all, the Jinyiwei has privileges and the mission of monitoring local officials. If it weren't for their own people's position, it might be troublesome.

"So fast?"

Although he had already agreed, He Yuansheng's speed still surprised Ye Yumeng.

"Today, Xiao Dezi mentioned the matter of paying food with officials and gentry, and the emperor was also very moved!"

Speaking of this, He Yuansheng snorted coldly and said sarcastically: "But this matter is not so easy to do!"

There was a strong irony in his tone, and he thought to himself, "Trouble, the more you are, the more trouble you will have."

“Isn’t this a good thing for adults?”

Ye Yumeng knew many of He Yuansheng’s secrets, so he could naturally guess what he was thinking.
