Travel through different worlds and experience different lives

The confidant continued: What the princess means is that since the previous emperor is not the emperor's bloodline, he does not need to be sent to the imperial mausoleum.

While they are still alive, roll them up in straw mats and put them in the mountains, including his concubines and children.

As for the empress dowager, there is no need to send her to the imperial mausoleum, so as not to pollute the eyes of the late emperor. She should be thrown into the mountains with her family to feed the wild beasts. After all, it is a way to utilize waste and save her bones.

After the confidant finished speaking, he nodded in agreement and continued: I also think that the princess’s arrangements are very good and there is no waste at all.

The current emperor was speechless and said: Okay, let’s do as Princess Mengli said. Don’t wait until they die without knowing where you will die.

Of course, for the current emperor, it doesn’t matter where those people die, as long as they don’t die in the palace.

The guards quickly entered the harem of the imperial palace, and carried out all the bodies, whether alive or dead, wrapped in straw mats, and dumped them into the nearby mountains according to the emperor's orders.

The people of the capital watched as the emperor carried out all the people, alive or dead, and threw them onto the carriage, then walked out of the city. Some curious people followed him.

The families of concubines in the capital city received the same treatment. Regardless of whether they were dead or alive, they were rolled up on a straw mat and thrown onto a cart.

In other words, no matter dead or alive, they were treated as dead, and the people didn't know what happened. At first glance, it was the Empress in the palace and the homes of the ministers. What happened?

A young eunuch who handled these matters took the imperial edict and said: The former emperor is not the bloodline of the late emperor, but the child born from the affair between the empress dowager and this man.

The late emperor had no more blood except the blood of King Zhan. Now King Zhan has ascended the throne and become our emperor. Everyone should stop calling this adulterous bastard the emperor.

The people were shocked when they heard this. What kind of sudden turn of events was this? And are we allowed to listen to these secret letters?

These people have now been demoted to commoners, confusing the royal bloodline, and these ministers have been corrupt and accepted bribes, after each piece of evidence was read out.

It is a heinous crime that will implicate the entire clan. Now these people are thrown into the mountains to feed the wild beasts. They don't deserve to be buried.

After the eunuch finished speaking, he took a group of people and rushed to the mountains outside the city.

And those ministers who were still dissatisfied with the War King becoming the emperor immediately fell silent upon hearing this.

The reason why I don't take action against them now is simply because I haven't found the time. Once all these things are done, it will be time to deal with them.

Therefore, many ministers hurried home to write memorials, offering all their family property in exchange for a chance to save their family's life.

The next morning, the King of War, now he could not be called the King of War but the Emperor, had more than 30 memorials on his desk, all of which were resignations, and more than 20 of them were in exchange for the lives of their family members with all their properties.

The emperor found it a little funny after reading it. It turned out that they also knew that they had made a mistake. They were indignant at him before. It turned out that they were just afraid of him.

But why do these people think they can survive by making mistakes?

Which of the things the children in their family did could save their lives? Before, they had the incompetent emperor to help them, but now he doesn't have that anymore, so it's time to settle the accounts.

The emperor directly sent the Dali Temple to search the property of the officials, and those officials who had not written a letter of resignation stating their property were treated the same way.

Do you really think that he, the former war king, is just a decoration?

The vacant positions are directly filled with people who have fanned themselves, and local government offices use the same approach.

Many ministers had their properties confiscated and some were exiled or beheaded. For three months, beheadings almost never stopped in the imperial city.

Where did Mengli go?

Of course, after I help the current emperor prepare the dragon robe and other things, I will go out to play in various places.

Before leaving, she asked Bai Xue and Bai Yue whether they wanted to follow her or continue to follow the current emperor.

Bai Xue and Bai Yue heard this without hesitation and said directly: Let's follow the lady.

Mengli smiled and nodded, saying: Then let’s pack some clothes and set off.

As he was talking, the two men signed a contract.

The people around her definitely cannot just sign nothing, and these people are unaware of the contract they signed.

Now Mengli is traveling in the south of the Yangtze River, and Xiangmeng Country has become the land of Xingye Country.

Now it seems that there are only two countries left, but in fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is just a matter of whether the Emperor of Xingye Kingdom wants to annex them.

Of course, annexation is a matter of time.

The Blue Moon Kingdom has a female emperor, so the best way now is to marry the female emperor directly. This will save trouble and effort. But I don’t know what the emperor of the Starry Night Kingdom will do?

Even the Queen of Blue Snow Country wants to know what Starry Night Country will do.

How could Ye Zhan have the mood to marry anyone now? Wen Yan said, he was too busy all day long because he had to deal with the affairs of two countries by himself.

After all, the two countries are far apart and communication is inconvenient, so letters are currently delivered by carrier pigeons.

After a busy year, I can finally have some free time.

More than a year ago, the ministers asked the emperor to start building a palace at the junction of the three kingdoms, mainly for future considerations.

The Blue Snow Country doesn't dare to intervene now. After all, the Starry Night Country was built on their own land. If they dare to intervene, the other party can directly send troops. In the end, won't it become someone else's territory anyway?

It took more than a year to complete the construction. Not only was the new palace three times larger than the current one, it was also more beautiful, and the surrounding cities were also expanded.

Because this place used to be the capital, there are naturally several times more mansions, the streets are wider, and the houses are neater.

Of course, Mengli also helped in this matter.

Jin Yang found Mengli and said that the emperor asked Mengli what she thought about the new construction of the imperial city. Mengli was very surprised at first. Would the emperor ask for her opinion?

But after thinking about it, I realized that everyone was probably too busy to take care of these things, so I asked Jin Yang to handle it. Jin Yang didn't know either, so he came to ask Meng Li.

That was indeed the case. Mengli took out the map and started to build on the drawing paper. It took her a week to finish drawing the imperial city and the surrounding cities.

By the way, he also gave Jinyang the method of making cement, and Jinyang left happily.

They didn't even go back to the imperial city to ask the emperor, but started building according to Mengli's drawings.

Well, the question is, the emperor said something before Jin Yang came, that is, from now on just do as Princess Mengli says.

Now Jin Yang no longer bothered the emperor. He just did everything as Princess Mengli said.

When the emperor was finally busy enough to spare some time, he suddenly discovered that Jin Yang was gone.

It seems like I haven't seen him for a long time? I asked the eunuch next to me: What is Jin Yang busy with recently? Why haven't I seen him for a long time?

The eunuch was also speechless upon hearing this, but still replied: Your Majesty, it was you who sent General Jin to build the imperial city, and it has been almost a year.

Upon hearing this, the emperor thought about it and nodded as if it was the case: "I see, how is the construction going over there?"

The eunuch's name was Fushun. After thinking it over, Fushun said: Your Majesty, the construction is almost completed. I should be able to come back and report to Your Majesty in a few days.

The emperor nodded upon hearing this, letting Fu Shun calm down, and he once again devoted himself to reviewing memorials.

Three months passed in a blink of an eye. One day, a general came to the imperial study. Yes, it was General Jin. The imperial city was completed and His Majesty was asked to move there.

Jin Yang was excitedly gesticulating in the imperial study as he described how grand the palace was and how much bigger it was than the current one.

There are beautiful scenery everywhere inside, which is much more beautiful than the current imperial palace.

That place is warm in winter and cool in summer, and whether you are living or relaxing, it really couldn't be more comfortable there.

There are natural hot springs in the palace, which have now been introduced into several palaces.

From now on, each palace will no longer need to boil water for bathing, and it is very convenient since it also applies in winter.

There is also a bathing area for ministers, which is far away from the harem.

No matter how loudly you speak, you can't hear each other. It's like one is on one side of the mountain and the other is on the other side.

The palace is surrounded by the residences of various ministers. There are currently three inner circles, three middle circles, and three outer circles. All of them are arranged according to the level of official positions, and the houses are built outwards in a U-shaped pattern.

Jin Yang's words were full of saliva, and Ye Zhan was also a little moved. What kind of palace was this that was praised by Jin Yang like this?

Ye Zhan is also a man of action. There is really nothing important to do these days, so why not start moving?

Just as he was about to order to move things, Jin Yang said: "Your Majesty, everything over there is ready."

All you have to do is take your clothes and move the treasury.

You can check in there anytime.

Moreover, the treasury over there was built without anyone guarding it, and no one dared to steal from it. There was an alarm device there, and anyone who went in without a key would be able to hear the alarm throughout the imperial city.

As long as the alarm is triggered, poison will be released.

No expert can escape.

The emperor became even more curious after hearing this, and asked people to pack up and go over to take a look. The emperor was busy moving the new palace here.

Mengli brought Baixue and Baiyue to a mountain village in the south of Xiangmeng Country.

This place is similar to Dali, the scenery is beautiful, and it feels like spring all year round.

They bought a yard here and planned to settle down here.

Mengli also likes this place. She changed into the costumes of the local ethnic minorities and played in the mountains and forests every day. Baixue and Baiyue are two years older than Mengli.

Mengli told them that if they met someone they liked, they could get married and live here. Now the two of them were no longer slaves, but free white people.

Both of them blushed when they heard this. They have lived here for almost a year.
