Chapter 178
Encountering a brainless fool halfway did not spoil Xiao Wuji’s mood.
Anyway, it was just a dying person, and Xiao Wouji did not pay attention to it.
All the way back to Beizhen Fusi, Xiao Wuji dismounted in front of the door.
A brocade guard guarding the door saw Xiao Wuji’s return, and quickly came up to lead the horse, “Xiao Qianhu, welcome back, it seems that it is another big victory.” ”
A few warriors who looked at the gate looked at the forty or fifty large boxes, and there were also red-faced brocade guards, and they didn’t know how envious they were.
With Xiao Wouji, you can make great achievements when you return.
Even if you just drink some soup, you can make a lot of money.
Unlike them, who look at the gate every day in the sun and rain, there is no future at all.
Xiao Wuji looked at Xue Hua, Song Limin and the others and ordered, “Register the loot in the warehouse, and I will go to the third brother to ask for credit for you.” ”
“Lord Xie!”
Everyone looked ecstatic, especially Xue Hua and Song Limin.
They knew that they would definitely be able to upgrade thousands of households this time.
Walking into Beizhen Fusi with his feet up, greeting some well-connected Jinyiwei along the way, Xiao Wuji came to the middle hall of the Qianhusho.
“Third brother, I’m back.”
Xiao Wuji smiled and said to Yuan Xiong.
“Sit down.”
As soon as Yuan Xiong raised his hand and asked Xiao Wuji to sit down, a maid next to him immediately brought a cup of tea.
“How? There were no surprises in this mission, right? ”
Yuan Xiong asked while drinking tea.
Xiao Wouji took a sip of tea to quench his thirst and spoke, “There is no accident, it is very smooth.” ”
“The Evil Blood Sect Blood Lifeless and Blood Red are all dead, only two or three big cats and kittens are left, what can be the accident?”
“I mobilized the two thousand troops of the Hanzhou Battalion to go up the mountain to encircle and suppress it, and washed the blood of the Evil Blood Sect, five.”
“The Evil Blood Sect is completely gone.”
“This is a mission briefing, third brother take a look.”
This was written by Xiao Wou-ki on the way back.
To be honest, writing essays is more tiring than letting him kill.
Yuan Xiong took the paperwork, opened it and glanced at it, nodding slightly.
Xiao Wouji wrote the task process very simply, and he could know the details at a glance 747.
It also recorded that Xiao Wuji killed Mitiangong, but Yuan Xiong just glanced at it and passed, and did not pay attention to it at all.
It’s just killing a Qian Zong who has bad character and done a lot of evil, which is a trivial matter here in Yuan Xiong.
Even if he has Li Wenbo behind him.
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the least afraid of Li Wenbo was their Jinyiwei.
And when he saw the list of loot in the appendix behind the document, Yuan Xiong’s eyes lit up, “I didn’t expect that the Evil Blood Sect had actually accumulated so much wealth, and it just so happened that the treasury was empty, so it was finally possible to suspend the urgent need.” ”
Xiao Wouji asked, “Is the treasury very short of money?” ”
Yuan Xiong closed the paperwork and sighed: “Lack, now the treasury is empty, and there is a shortage of money almost everywhere.” ”
“This time, His Majesty will rebuild the Da Luo Hall, and the Wanbao Pavilion destroyed by the Demon Sect will also be rebuilt, and during this time, a large number of displaced people in Northern Xinjiang have rebelled, and they need to spend money to appease, and the salaries of the Northern Yan border army will also be paid.”
“Now the treasury is not short of money, but very short of money.”
“Hube Shangshu and His Majesty cry poverty every day, and a copper plate has to be broken in half.”
“You want to rebuild the Great Luo Hall again?!”
Xiao Wouji was a little surprised when he heard this.
It is just a matter of rebuilding the Wanbao Pavilion, and it is natural to pacify the displaced people and issue military salaries, but what is there to repair in the Great Luo Hall?
Over the years, the Da Luo Hall has been repaired almost every three years and a minor repair every year.
The magnificence of the Great Luo Hall has far exceeded that of the main hall of the palace.
That is a place where Emperor Jingtai refining pills, he hardly goes anywhere else except the main hall of alchemy, what is the use of cultivating so magnificently?
This is simply a loss of money and labor.
Yuan Xiong knew what Xiao Wuji was thinking in his heart, and sighed helplessly: “I also know that His Majesty’s move is inappropriate, and the commander also knows it, and he has also admonished it, but it is useless.” ”
“Alchemy Immortal Life is His Majesty’s obsession, and no one can stop him.”
“A few days ago, more than twenty ministers signed a joint letter requesting His Majesty to suspend the restoration of the Da Luo Hall and spend money to appease the displaced people in Northern Xinjiang, but who knew that this move would provoke His Majesty’s anger with Long Yan.”
“In the anger of His Majesty, several officials at the head of the general were all killed, and their entire family members were also exiled!”
Speaking of this, Yuan Xiong also shook his head and sighed, sighing.
After Xiao Wuji heard it, he also felt extremely cold.
Those ministers are dedicated to serving the country and the people, but they end up ruining their families, which makes other ministers embarrassed?
Those who serve the country and the people have no good end, but those who flatter the monarch can be promoted and rich.
After a long time, how many good officials can there be in this Great Zhou court?
It is not to blame the common people for complaining about Emperor Jingtai, nor for the rebellion of the displaced people everywhere, all this was done by Emperor Jingtai himself.
As the saying goes, if you don’t do it, you won’t die.
The dog emperor was so unscrupulous and brutalized Zhongliang, and his tragic end Xiao Wouji was already predictable.
“Don’t be too discouraged, Your Majesty is still doing very well in other places besides indulging in alchemy pill immortality.”
Yuan Xiong looked at Xiao Wuji and said.
Obviously, Yuan Xiong was afraid that Xiao Wuji would also lose his loyalty to His Majesty because of this, so he opened his mouth to exhort.
Xiao Wouji nodded and said, “Don’t worry, third brother, the younger brother knows his identity and his responsibilities.” ”
This remark is ambiguous, on the surface Xiao Wuji is showing loyalty, but in fact, the meaning in it is only known by Xiao Wuji himself.
Such a dog emperor, Xiao Wuji would not be bad if he killed him in a chivalrous manner, and he dared to be loyal to him wholeheartedly? What are you kidding?
Xiao Wuji’s loyal person was only himself from beginning to end.
Yuan Xiong obviously didn’t hear Xiao Wuji’s implications, and nodded and said, “That’s good.” ”
“This time, you eradicated the Evil Blood Sect and brought back so many loot, which alleviated the urgent needs of the imperial court, and it was another great achievement.”
“Your Majesty will definitely be rewarded with a great reward after knowing it, so you should wait patiently for news.”
“This trip is long, I will give you a ten-day vacation, you go home and rest for a while.”
Xiao Wuji smiled and nodded, “Thank you Third Brother.” ”
After that, Xiao Wouji got up and strode away.
The news that Xiao Wuji had eradicated the Evil Blood Sect and brought back a large number of loot reached the palace, and Emperor Jingtai was indeed happy.
“Well, well done, Xiao Wouji didn’t let Xu down.”
Emperor Jing Tai looked at the list of loot in his hand, and his mouth was almost grinning to the root of his ear.
Only said one sentence majestically, “Xiao Wuji did things decently, and then made new merits, and should be rewarded.” (Read violent novels, go on Feilu Fiction Network!) ）
Jinyiwei commanded Xia Yunxuan to salute on the side: “Weichen on behalf of Xiao Wuji to thank His Majesty for his reward.” ”
(cabc) Emperor Jingtai closed the list of loot and spoke: “Divide this batch of gold and silver into three percent and use it to rebuild the Daluo Hall, the other thirty percent will be used to purchase heavenly materials and earth treasures and alchemy materials, and the remaining four percent will be used to appease the displaced people in northern Xinjiang.” ”
Xia Yunxuan frowned slightly, feeling that it was inappropriate to do so, but after all, he did not open his mouth to admonish, and said respectfully: “Weichen obeys the order.” ”
“Go ahead.”
Emperor Jingtai waved his hand and ordered Xia Yunxuan to retreat, while he continued refining pills.
The flame in that alchemy furnace burned fiercely, and even the stainless steel Xuan iron could be burned into molten iron.
But Xia Yunxuan felt that his heart was a little cold, and the blood in his whole body was also a little cold.
Walking out of the Da Luo Hall, Xia Yunxuan looked up at the sky, and then looked back at the closed palace door of the Da Luo Hall, and let out a soft sigh.
The helplessness, exhaustion, coldness, and anger in it are known only to him.
Over the years, although Xia Yunxuan was extremely loyal to Emperor Jingtai, he was becoming more and more indifferent to what Emperor Jingtai did.
A few days ago, Emperor Jingtai killed several loyal ministers in a row, which inevitably made Xia Yunxuan feel sad about the death of the rabbit.
The human heart is made of flesh.
With his own treatment, Xia Yunxuan is also afraid that he will one day end up as a cunning rabbit and a lackey cooking.
After Xiao Wuji left the middle hall of the Thousand Households House, he immediately went to Su Mansion.
After going out for more than a month, Xiao Wuji missed Su Wan’er very much, and just wanted to see her as quickly as possible.
Today’s Xiao Wouji already has a new house, Xiao Mansion.
Before Xiao Wouji left Jinling, he told Su Yue to let him buy the house next door to Su Mansion as Xiao Wuji’s mansion.
He was a manly husband, Jinyi Wei Qianhu, a county uncle personally appointed by the emperor, and it was not good to live in his father-in-law’s house.
When he said it, others thought he was a son-in-law.
Anyway, he is not short of money, and buying a house is just a trivial matter.
Originally, Xiao Wouji planned to buy it on Suzaku Street, after all, it was his hometown.
But after thinking about it, I was still buying it next door to Sufu.
In this way, as long as the wall is opened, it can be connected to Su Mansion.
In the future, if a thief arrives, Xiao Wouji can also protect the safety of Su Yue and his wife in the first time.
The street where Su Mansion is located is a wealthy area of Jinling City, although it is not as good as the area where the royal clan and the ministers of the imperial court live, but it is also far beyond the place where ordinary people live.
Housing prices here are so high that the average small wealthy businessman simply cannot afford it.
And the rich will not sell their homes casually.
But Xiao Wuji was different, he gave too much.
In order to do this in the shortest possible time, Xiao Wuji directly raised the price by fifty percent and bought the house next door to Su Mansion.
Coupled with the fact that Xiao Wouji was a Jinyi Wei Qianhu, the rich businessman who sold the house had to give some face, and finally took the money and left happily.
“Oh, it’s changed a lot in a month.”
Xiao Wuji came to the gate of Xiao Mansion, looked at the elegantly decorated mansion gate, and was quite satisfied in his heart.
“Aunt is back!”
Seeing Xiao Wouji, the guard guarding the door immediately shouted in surprise.
“What’s it called? It’s still called aunt, and now it should be called master. ”
Another guard corrected.
“Yes, yes, look at my brain, it really shouldn’t be called uncle, it should be called master.”
The guard quickly slapped himself on the head.
Both of them were the guards of the original Su Mansion, and they were used to shouting Xiao Wuji’s aunt, and they would not be able to change it for a while.
Xiao Wouji rolled over and dismounted, and a guard hurriedly came up to lead the horse.
Xiao Wouji asked, “Can Wan’er be in the mansion?” ”
The guard nodded and said, “The day after this house was bought, the young lady moved over.” ”
“The master hasn’t come back for more than a month, and the young lady thinks that the master is going crazy, and she doesn’t want to eat every day.”
Xiao Wuji smiled, “Don’t call me Master in the future, just call me Gongzi, adults can do it.” ”
“Tell the master to call me old.”
“Yes, yes, the villain obeys.”
The guard nodded again and again and asked, “But do you want the villain to inform the young lady that the prince is back?” ”
Xiao Wouji said, “No need, I’ll go find her myself.” ”
Xiao Wuji walked into Xiao’s mansion, and the mansion was scene by step, one after another, carved beams and paintings, and antique.
Before seeing Su Wan’er, Xiao Wuji first saw a big man who was eight feet tall and holding a red blood spear, which was Gongsun Ao.
“I heard that you went to destroy the Evil Blood Sect.”
Gongsun Ao came up like this, and his face was expressionless, like a big log.
“Why don’t you take me?”.
