The next day, Xue Rui accompanied Yu Shu to Dali Temple. ”š Even though he had half coaxed and half frightened him to release a group of officials back home, many important officials from the former dynasty were still imprisoned here, such as Duke Jingguo and Uncle Zhongyong. None of them were high-ranking officials back then, but now they have been reduced to He was a prisoner, but he didn't even have a chance to stand up. Xue Rui can think that the old relationship left Guo Huaian and the others a way out, but he will not easily let go of these people who made trouble when the Xue family was convicted and Yu Shu was in trouble. In the cell, dozens of officials from the upper and lower levels of Si Tianjian were trapped for more than ten days. No one was allowed to visit, and they could not hear the news from outside. They only knew that some people had been let out one after another a while ago and had submitted to the new dynasty. . They had been holding their breath since the day they came in. Even if they were trembling in their hearts and becoming more anxious every day, until the last step, no one dared to disobey Yu Shu's order. Even if the country changed hands, they would not wait until she When the news came, it was not known whether she was dead or alive, and no one dared to make any decisions. In the past few years that this woman has been in power, she has been even more tough than her predecessor. She has taken turns cleaning up the Twelve Houses, and now every high-ranking official left behind by Si Tianjian is looking up to her. Even if someone has a different intention, they must weigh the consequences of betraying her. If she escapes by chance this time, they will only be worse off than they are now when she comes back. So, when the country was subjugated and a catastrophe came, Si Tianjian turned out to be the hardest bone. In the eyes of the old officials who had escaped, he was not as powerful as Yu Shu. "My lord, please go this way, everyone is locked up in front." In the lifeless cell. The sudden sound of human voices was particularly clear. As a series of footsteps approached, the Yi officials locked in the cage all pricked up their ears and looked at the direction of the coming person alertly, feeling terrified in their hearts. I'm afraid it's for punishment. It was broad daylight outside, and the light from the skylight on the top of the cell shone beam after beam on the narrow corridor. When they saw clearly the two figures walking side by side in the middle, they couldn't help but stare. Woodenly got up from the ground. The Great Prince of Yanping. They had met him before, and no one suspected that he was the eldest son of the Xue family who had been missing for many years. He looked very similar, but no one dared to tell him. But now they were stunned. But it was the woman in gorgeous clothes walking beside him unscathed. ”°Tai, Tai Shu!”± Someone shouted excitedly at that time. Wen Shaoan was the first to rush to the cell door. Seeing Yu Shu's appearance clearly, he almost cried with joy. Everyone knew that he was the most obedient subordinate under her, and many people mocked him behind her back and called him a vicious dog in front of her door. But who would have thought that if he hadn't been a master like her, based on his background, he would never have been able to stand out in his life. How could he have become the Shaoqing of Tai Chengsi at such a young age? It doesn't matter if someone calls him a dog. "It's great that you are safe and sound." Yu Shu nodded reassuringly to him, and glanced around at his subordinates in the surrounding cells, looking at their emaciated faces and shackles, knowing that they were suffering this time. Despite the suffering, it is very rare to be able to wait until she appears. "I've wronged you, I will take you out right now." After saying that, he nodded to Xue Rui and asked the jailer to open the cell door and let him out. With joy falling from the sky, everyone in Si Tianjian did not expect that she would let them go as soon as she showed up. They were immediately surprised and felt that a savior had come, and they gritted their teeth and survived these days. "Tai Shu, are you going to let us go home?" Yu Shu looked straight ahead, folded his hands on his abdomen, and announced solemnly: "The previous dynasty passed away and was replaced by Dayan. This is where destiny belongs. Inspired by the current emperor, you are now surrendering to this dynasty and resuming the post of Da Ti Dian. Are you willing to follow me, revive the Si Tianjian, assist the current emperor, and benefit the people of the world? " Everyone was surprised again and looked at each other. For a while, I had no idea. If this matter had happened half a month ago, they would still be struggling, but those people who went out in front heard that the governor had been reinstated. Now that Yu Shu has spoken out, if they don't respond, will this group of people subjugate their country? Do you want to hold your neck and die for your country? "I would rather follow Tai Shu." "The same goes for Xin." The first ones to respond were Wen Shaoan and Xin Ya. Wen Shaoan was fine, but Xin Ya was the oldest and most cunning among Si Tianjian's group. That one, don't you see, after Yu Shu came to power, even the highly respected Cao Zuoling was uprooted by her, but he was the only one who sat peacefully on the Zuo judge's seat, motionless. In the corner, Ren Qiming sighed softly, looking at Yu Shu's calm appearance, knowing that An Chao's situation was over. She failed to save the empire of the Holy Ancestor, but she saved Si Tianjian. I don't know whether it was a blessing or a misfortune. "I will obey Taishu's instructions in everything." Ren Qiming couldn't help but?I thought: If Mr. Zhu has a spirit in heaven, will he regret handing over Si Tianjian to her? Seeing that the chief officers and adjutants of the three divisions and two bureaus all nodded, the rest of the people had nothing to hesitate about and bowed in response to her call. In this way, Yu Shu effortlessly recruited a group of Yi officials to work for her again. It is conceivable that if these people want to gain a foothold in the new dynasty, they must be firmly attached to her. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she raised her hands: "Excuse me." Mr. Youyu tried his best to intercede for you, otherwise there is no such thing as a cheap thing. I pardoned you and reinstated your official position. You should really go out and find out how many princes and uncles are still in prison waiting to be punished, huh." Everyone felt guilty and frightened by his few words. In addition to being in awe of Yu Shu, they felt even more indescribable gratitude. Afterwards, Xue Rui released all the people in these cells, registered the names and gave them to Yu Shu. Several other female officials were imprisoned elsewhere. She also went there in person and took them out. Women who can enter Si Tian Prison are naturally different from ordinary weak women. Madam Lu and Situ Qinglan are the best among them, and they can keep their composure better than those men, and finally look forward to Yu Shu's appearance. Without crying or making a fuss, he chose to follow her without saying a word. *** The next day, the two seals outside the door of Sitian Prison Tower were removed, and its popularity was restored again. The news that Yu Shu had regained control of Si Tianjian spread like wildfire, shocking everyone in the court. However, no one dared to criticize her or accuse her of anything wrong. Firstly, on the day when the Yan army captured the capital, no one knew about Yu Shu's bravery in rescuing them. Secondly, at the palace celebration banquet, Prince Ping rectified her name in public, and even Emperor Yan personally praised her conduct. Who wants to call her a traitor? You have to look at yourself in the mirror first. At the same time, the war in the north subsided, and a large number of refugees poured into Zijin Pass. However, the national food reserves were not enough to provide disaster relief. The faction of King Ping in the DPRK advocated allocating food for disaster relief first. At the same time, troops and horses were dispatched south to collect grain. You can also clear away the remnants of the previous dynasty in one go. The other faction opposed the resumption of war and the waste of food and grass, and suggested that the refugees and disaster victims be driven to the south to reduce the pressure on the national treasury. Both sides hold their own opinions. There is a stalemate. To put it bluntly, the treasury is empty and there is no money. One group of people are shouting to rob, and the other group is shouting to save. Just when Emperor Yan was upset by their quarrel, the matter took another turn - Si Tianjian, led by Yu Shu, donated a million silver taels to replenish the treasury. Twelve aristocratic families in the capital responded one after another, and wealthy people donated Money and food were donated by those who had food. In just a few days, more than 5 million taels of money and 300,000 shi of food and grass were raised, which was regarded as solving the urgent need of the court. Emperor Yan was overjoyed and immediately issued an order to allocate grain for disaster relief. On the other hand, he issued documents to recruit people, appointed an imperial envoy and a general to conquer the south, and set out to the south to collect grain and recruit people along the way. This time, Yu Shu took the lead in donating money and food, and earned enough favor with the emperor. Afterwards, she praised her profound righteousness in the court, and asked the historian to write it down for her. Poor the Twelve Houses family who were forced to bloodlette but did not get any benefits, they could only hold their noses and admit it, thinking that they were spending money to eliminate disasters, so that they could feel at ease and sleep peacefully at night. No matter how many people scolded her behind her back, Yu Shu still went her own way. In her view, these intertwined Yixue families were one of the roots of the corruption of the previous dynasty. Because of the existence of Si Tianjian, they abused their privileges, amassed money excessively and were unkind, standing between the court and the people, but it was not good for the country or the people. If it is not good for the people, it will become a moth in this country over time. The founding of the country by Dayan was not like the previous dynasty's high regard for Yi Xue. In addition, she hindered it, so the emperor valued her personally, not Si Tianjian. This left those Yixue aristocratic families with no support and foundation, and could no longer unscrupulously plunder the people's wealth. Sooner or later, the Yi Xue family will fade out of the court's sight and decline. Yu Shu didn't think he was wrong in doing so. The popularity of Yi Xue three hundred years ago had its reasons, and the decline of Yi Xue three hundred years later also had its reasons. Things must turn to the extreme, and prosperity must decline. Just as the Yi Dao said: "The meaning of life is life. "Easy." Life goes on and on, everything goes in cycles, and reforming the old and making new things is the order of heaven. After the disaster relief incident subsided, Yu Shu brought the Pure Jun Sword into the palace to meet the Saint. Of course, it was the "Pure Jun Sword" from Longhu Mountain, not the one she had secretly collected. Rusty sword. Although it is a forgery, it is still a sword that can sharpen iron as well as clay, otherwise it would not have deceived Zhu Muzhao's eyes. Emperor Yan held it in his hand and gestured twice, and easily cut off a corner of the dragon case. He was so frightened that the eunuch's legs went weak and he knelt on the ground to persuade him - "Please take care, Your Majesty, don't get hurt." "Dragon body!" "Hahaha!" Emperor Yan laughed happily, ignoring the slave's cry and couldn't put it down.He fiddled with the sword in his hand and said to Yu Shu: "Such a magical weapon is worthy of my dignity." Listening to his tone, I don't doubt that the sword is fake. Yu Shu waited for him to be curious enough, and then spoke out: "This thing is related to the "Book of Xuannv Liu Ren", it will leak the news and scare the snake. Please don't show the Pure Jun Sword to others easily." Emperor Yan waved his hand to her: " I understand." Then he raised his head and smiled at her, saying, "Yu Qing has accomplished two great feats. Let me know what reward you want." Yu Shu lowered his head and said, "I will share your worries with you. I have to fulfill my duty as a minister, and I have nothing else to ask for. " "That's not possible. I have always made clear rewards and punishments." Emperor Yan suppressed a smile, "I must have a very high vision when I see that you are still alone at your age. I don't look down on ordinary people. I happen to have a sworn brother who is a talented man, both civil and military. What's more rare is that he is clean and has no close friends around him. Why don't I reward him as your husband? Do you think this is good? Okay?" Yu Shu was stunned for a moment, and looked up at the emperor in confusion. Knowing that he was teasing her and Xue Rui, he couldn't help but smile. He lifted up his skirt and bowed sincerely, saying loudly: "My lord, thank you for your kindness. "I really want to see how Xue Rui would look blank when she knew that he was given to her by the emperor as a reward. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
