Chapter 338 The Emperor Vomited Blood Again

You must listen to your wife's words!

After leaving the space helplessly, Wei Chengyi said hello to Ji Shaohan, and used the extension of space to head straight to the palace.

I don't know if it was because they seized the military power of Chenzhou, but the emperor was so provoked that he actually ordered Wanqi Shan to go to Binzhou to quell the rebellion in advance. Wanqi Shan was a veteran who was good at taking steady steps. After being ordered to take over the Binzhou army, he did not immediately launch a war to retake the city occupied by the rebels. Instead, he gathered all the troops and led the training personally.

In addition, due to the interference of Wei Chengyi's people, Quanzhou and Taizhou, which should have been pacified last year, are still in turmoil. The uprisings in these three places are undoubtedly a thorn in the emperor's heart. Today, he summoned important civil and military officials to the imperial study to discuss how to suppress them as soon as possible.

Relying on the convenience of space, Wei Chengyi sneaked into the palace quietly. Even though the palace had strengthened its vigilance and had many more experts because of the theft incident a year ago, it was still of no use to him. However, he did not immediately look for the emperor's private treasury, but sneaked into the imperial study and listened to their discussions for a long time. After he was sure that they had no effective way to suppress the rebels in the three places in the shortest time, he turned and left.

How could the emperor leave himself penniless?
Shen Xiangwan's prediction was correct. After a year of plundering, the emperor's private treasury had accumulated a lot of wealth. Wei Chengyi did not hesitate to be polite with him. With a wave of his hand, he collected all the gold, silver, jewelry, porcelain, calligraphy and paintings on the ground into the space. Then he sneaked into the emperor's bedroom, and according to his wife's instructions, he knocked down the palace servants and took away everything inside, including the emperor's dragon bed.

In order to carry out his wife's instructions, Wei Chengyi also went to the harem. From the queen to the concubines, everyone's private vaults were visited, and the things collected in the space piled up into several small hills.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something bad has happened, Qianyuan Palace has been robbed!"

Qianyuan Palace was the emperor's bedroom. The young eunuch stumbled into the imperial study and prostrated himself on the ground with a pale face.

"what?!"

The emperor's eyes widened and he suddenly jumped up. What did it mean that Qianyuan Palace was robbed? There were so many experts in the palace. In broad daylight, his bedroom was guarded by countless palace servants. How could it be robbed?
"Reply, Your Majesty, everything in Qianyuan Palace has disappeared, leaving only the bare palace."

He raised his head and looked at him quickly. The little eunuch's body was shaking like a sieve. It was too weird and it was impossible for a human to do it. Could it be that the emperor had offended some god?

"What did you say? Say it again!"

Hearing this, the emperor glared at him and said almost gritting his teeth, even if the Qianyuan Palace was really robbed, how could the furniture and decorations inside be stolen as well?
"Report, Your Majesty, the treasury has been stolen again."

Before the young eunuch could react, the eunuch in charge of guarding the treasury hurried in.

"you···"

"Your Majesty, something bad has happened. The harem has been robbed."

Soon after, the eunuch in charge of the Queen's Palace also came. The emperor's body was slightly unsteady: "Investigate, investigate for me, find the thief!"

How similar was this scene to the one a year ago? The emperor felt a fishy and sweet taste rising up in his throat, and blood flowed out from the corners of his mouth.

"emperor!"

"Call the imperial physician!" "Your Majesty..."

Seeing this, the ministers were all panicked. The imperial study was in chaos. The culprit who caused all this, Wei Chengyi, had already left the palace. As for how the palace would be in chaos and how uneasy it would be, it had nothing to do with him. Who made the emperor annoy Shen Xiangwan? If he hadn't sent the Dragon Shadow Guard to cause trouble again and again, she wouldn't have had to ask Wei Chengyi to go to the palace.

Yong'an Village, Wei family's small study.

“How is spring ploughing going in the three counties?”

After Shen Xiangwan left the space, she happened to meet Qingying coming back from outside. The two entered the small study one after the other. She casually asked about the spring ploughing in the three counties. Chenzhou started spring ploughing on the second day of February. This year, thanks to the curved plow and harrow cart she had invented, the spring ploughing in all counties went smoothly. Only in Daping County, Dafeng County and Dalin County, the people started spring ploughing only after the army had withdrawn one after another, so the progress was inevitably slower.

"It's all over now. The curved plow and the harrow have saved a lot of labor, and the people are very grateful."

Qingying couldn't help but smile. During this period of time, he had been assisting the three counties in carrying out spring farming work. The curved plow and harrow cart that they vigorously promoted were extremely popular among the people. Everyone who had used them had good things to say about them. In addition, they had defeated the Western Hu people for the first time in history. Now the people of the three counties had great trust in the government and the military, and their cohesion was no longer what it used to be.

"It's good as long as it can help the people."

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Shen Xiangwan's face. The next step was to wait for the harvest. Unfortunately, currently only Datong County was growing potatoes and corn. People in other counties had not seen the yield of the new crops with their own eyes and were not willing to try growing them. However, her method of making fertilizer had been promoted. This year, the entire Chenzhou was going to try to grow two crops of grain. When people saw how high the grain yield was in Datong County, they would beg to grow them even if the government did not publicize it. This year, no one in Chenzhou would go hungry.

"When the Second Master first went to the prefectural capital last year, he brought the curved plow and the hoe cart with him. Unfortunately, the prefect didn't take them seriously at that time, and the people didn't even get to see them."

If they had not promoted it vigorously after seizing part of the power, the spring ploughing of the people this year would not have been so smooth. Thinking of this, Qingying couldn't help but sigh. The local officials in Chenzhou didn't take the people seriously. Don't they know that the curved plow and the harrow cart are easy to use? They know, but they don't care whether the people can save labor or not. They are full of how to squeeze the people and squeeze more of the people's fat.

"So we have to quickly gather the remaining political power in Chenzhou. Only when we are the only one in power can we do whatever we want in the future."

Shen Xiangwan had long been disappointed with the officials in Chenzhou and was too lazy to say anything more about them: "Have those women who survived the massacre by the Western Hu people been settled?"

"Ah."

Qingying nodded: "Everyone has been placed in various villages in Datong County according to the instructions of the Second Master. Yong'an Village is not suitable for adding more people because of our presence, so we did not send them over."

"They are all miserable people. Tell Fu Qiuhua to talk to the village heads in various places and ask them to pay more attention to the villages under their jurisdiction and try not to let those people be bullied."

"Don't worry, we know what's going on."

They had done this a long time ago. In the villages that were massacred by the Western Hu people, the survivors were basically young women. Without the protection of men and elders, one can imagine how difficult their future lives will be. For this reason, Fu Qiuhua has visited the village heads in various places more than once, in order to prevent the villagers from bullying them.
