Entertainment of Spring and Autumn

Chapter 636: Rectification Completed

Of course, Ji Wuyou couldn't give Xue Mu a title, so he and Yue Xiaochan exchanged a few witty words, and walked away with a smile without waiting for Yue Xiaochan to reply. As for the scene in the imperial garden, it had already passed by with a smile like a passing cloud.

Yue Xiaochan leaned against the tree and looked at Ji Wuyou's back, with a sarcastic smile on her lips.

What about the real devil in the world, and what about the unparalleled witch? There is no one in the royal family who is more evil than them, let alone Ji Wuyou who killed his brother, patricide and hooked up with the Jingtian Sect. Even Ji Wuxing, who was quite heroic, wouldn't he have caused the plague? To poison thousands of miles?

And it's the same face that makes you unable to see anything, and you want to stab you in your heart, but your face is smiling like a spring breeze.

When it comes to magic sect, the royal family is the real magic sect.

Xue Mu came to her side and said with a smile: "The provocation is ineffective?"

"Invalid." Yue Xiaochan curled her lips and said, "I hinted that the Bullying Sect was bullying the Emperor, so there must be a secret plan. Ji Wuyou seemed not to care."

"It's not that he doesn't care, but he already knows it in his heart. Ordinary people know that the Qi Tian Sect is not trustworthy. How can someone like Ji Wuyou really have no protection against Xu Jing?"

"I remember that insidious Ji Wuyou once wanted to do harm to my mother. At that time, Master and I were... Has anything happened these days?"

"That time, he felt that there was an opportunity to take advantage of Xiaolin's departure from the capital. Normally, Xiaolin was well guarded, so he had no chance." Liu Wanxi smiled and said, "Most of the inner guards and worship halls in the palace belong to us. Man, the only person Ji Wuyou can trust is the shadow guard. In fact, the shadow guard is also... He is trying to prevent me from harming him. Otherwise, what kind of imperial guard will he be in such a hurry? He will never leave his Grade A combat partner even when he sleeps. It’s like marrying a war partner…”

Xue Mu and Yue Xiaochan both laughed.

Liu Wanxi added: "I have interfered a lot with the power of the Imperial Guard, and neither he nor I can fully control it. But because of this, as long as there is such a group of people, he and I have to maintain superficial harmony, otherwise It would be too ugly to spread the word. So you see, he also greets you every day now...For him who is weak on the surface, this can actually protect him."

"I see, I never thought about this before." Xue Mu praised: "Wanxi is more knowledgeable now."

Liu Wanxi smiled and said: "And he also has a group of important forces, which are the royal guardian elders of the Chengtianmen Ancestral Temple. These people are the ones who protect the imperial power the most. Before, Ji Qing was intentionally cut off from the transmission of information, and Ji Wuyou Of course, he can borrow the power of these people and the tripod. This is his most stable foundation. But he can use this power to deal with anyone, and he cannot use it to deal with me, because I am his mother, and the royal elders stand for filial piety. words, that is their fundamental interest.”

Yue Xiaochan thought for a while and said with a smile: "I really have a headache for him."

"He will find a breakthrough. I think he is better than his father." Xue Mu said: "What did he have at hand when he forcibly ascended the throne? But after being pushed around by him, he really found his way out more and more. , To be honest, I admire him very much. If he were in a different place, I would definitely not have the same skill as him."

"Hey, it seems like you two still have some sympathy for each other? I feel like he admires you too, and even seems... imitating you in some ways."

Xue Mu raised his head and thought for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "Respecting your opponent means respecting yourself. If you always criticize your opponent as a weakling, then we have been struggling for so long and still haven't won. Then aren't we laughing at ourselves? So laughing at someone The one who weaves mats and sells shoes is the mediocre person, and the one who cooks wine and discusses heroes is the real hero."

Yue Xiaochan wondered: "What kind of allusion is this?"

Xue Mu thought for a moment: "Let's go back and see if I can write this... The backgrounds are so incompatible, but it is a pity that one of the four is missing."

………

Over there, the malicious smile that Ji Wuyou always wore after talking to Yue Xiaochan completely disappeared when he went to court.

"I have this note!"

Without even a preamble, Ji Wuyou turned sideways and was about to sit on the dragon chair. An angry roar came from the hall. Ji Wuyou almost twisted his feet without paying attention, and sat on the dragon chair with a plop and walked towards the hall. Look, I saw a big man like a black tower, with white hair at the temples, but he was as powerful as thunder, striding out from the right side of the line of ministers, Xiahou Di was the leader.

Ji Wuyou's heart sank, and she secretly called out the situation...

On the right is the military queue, with Xiahou Di at the head. When Dongxu Zhexuanzhe usually does not go to court, except for Li Yingqing and other three sect leaders, the others under her are from the honorary system.

The so-called Xungui system refers to the right-hand men who followed Taizu Taizu of the Great Zhou Dynasty to conquer the country thousands of years ago as mentioned repeatedly in the conversations between Xue Mu and Xia Houdi. In such a turbulent time, you can imagine what kind of fierce people gathered around the powerful Hedao. Among them, the ancestors of the Shenji Sect established separate sects because of their special functions, and the other pure warriors became noble princes. , passed down from generation to generation.

Some are similar to the nobles such as the Duke of Wei in the Ming Dynasty whom Xue Mu knew. They did not participate in politics or hold power. They just raced and encircled the land and were prosperous for generations. The main reason to maintain their political influence is that the women in the family are basically regular visitors to the harem. All the queens came from this system. Liu Wanxi was never able to establish a queen at the beginning, which was also an important reason.

And Xue Mu's luxuries, such as Kung Fu tea customs and various show-off tools, are also what this group of people enjoy the most.

Ji Wuyou has not yet established a queen, but the harem has also been selected according to regulations, and the concubines are basically from these noble families. And his biological mother-in-law is the biological daughter of Xu Guogong - this black tower man is Ji Wuyou's biological grandfather.

In addition to the gentry family system represented by Prime Minister Su Duan, the most critical supporters of Ji Wuyou's previous power in government and opposition were this group of nobles. Some of them have become corrupt and corrupt beyond their usefulness, but after all, in a world where force is the most important thing, sufficient resources can still produce some outstanding ones, and the overall force is not low.

The presence of these people in Xue Mu's previous operations was very low. This was due to the limitations of the ancestral system and the alienation of the concubines due to Ji Qingyuan's mental illness. These people did not know how to get involved in court affairs. Now that Ji Wuyou has broken the barriers, a large number of nobles have joined the palace guards as officials. This Duke Xu has become the commander of the guards, and it has not been long since he entered the court to discuss affairs.

He is obviously a die-hard member of his own family. Ji Wuyou controls the imperial guards and is his biggest reliance against Liu Wanxi. He was also angry with him for colluding with the Jingtian Sect before. Why did he jump out with a bad look on his face this time without even saying hello in advance? Already?

Xu Jing's words flashed through Ji Wuyou's heart: "Now that Xue Mu has entered the capital, I think it's better to end your plan as soon as it's ready. If you continue to mess with it, I don't know how many people will be pushed to his side."

Is it so immediate?
