The First Tyrant of Daxia

Qin Yun raised his eyebrows, slightly surprised that Dou Ji did not ask further questions.

He said, "Tiffany, what is the matter?"

Dou Ji showed a kind and charming smile, which made Qin Yun have some wild thoughts.

A bold evil thought flashed through his mind.

"Your Majesty, what else could it be? Of course it's about the issue of offspring." Dou Ji said seriously, "Your Majesty has no children now, how can this be possible?"

"As a ruler of a country, being childless is irresponsible to the country!"

"When he was your age, your father had already given birth to more than ten princes and princesses."

Hearing this, Qin Yun was ashamed.

Concubine Dou Ji sighed and asked tentatively, "Your Majesty, I heard that you almost only go to Concubine Shu and Concubine Zheng in the harem?"

Qin Yun agreed.

"Your Majesty, don't you like the concubines in the harem?" Dou Ji asked again.

Qin Yun touched the tip of his nose and said, "Queen Dowager, many ministers in the court have also made reports on the issue of offspring. Don't worry, I will take this matter to heart."

Dou Ji frowned slightly, and her eyes were full of charm.

"Your Majesty, this won't do!"

"I intend to issue an order to select ten well-read, gentle, beautiful and innocent women from the aristocratic families in the imperial capital and send them to the palace to serve Your Majesty so that you can give birth to a prince sooner."

Qin Yun frowned: "Forget it, a poisonous girl named Wang Min just appeared, and I am not interested in taking a concubine yet!"

Concubine Dou Ji wanted to persuade him again.

Qin Yun said first: "Don't worry, Concubine Dowager. There is no shortage of women in the harem."

Dou Ji's eyes flickered and she didn't know what to say.

"Eat something, Concubine Dowager. I see that you have lost a lot of weight." Qin Yun took the initiative to pick up a piece of meat for her.

Dou Ji smiled slightly, pretending to be flattered: "Your Majesty, you too."

After about an incense stick of time, we were almost done eating.

Qin Yun made a final attempt and said, "My Queen Mother, I intend to summon several of my brothers to the palace for a gathering. What do you think?"

Snapped!

The bamboo chopsticks in Dou Ji's hand fell to the ground without warning.

Then she quickly laughed.

"I do want to, but the palace has strict rules and the prince cannot come in at will, so in my opinion, it is not necessary."

Qin Yun didn't see anything wrong from her reaction. Perhaps the chopsticks falling was just an accident.

He stood up and bent down to pick it up himself.

"Your Majesty, no, let the servants come."

Concubine Dou Ji hurriedly stopped him and bent down to help him up.

Realizing that she was exposed, her face suddenly changed and she immediately covered her chest with her hands.

When she saw Qin Yun's lecherous look, her face suddenly turned serious and she said in a cold and unhappy voice: "Your Majesty, I am your elder!"

Her aura was evident as she spoke. I guess she was not only beautiful but also resourceful when she was young.

Qin Yun's face changed, and he realized that he had lost control and felt a little embarrassed.

He apologized, "Tiffany, I didn't mean it."

"I see it's getting late, so I'll leave first. Please take care of yourself, Princess. I'll come to see you another day."

After saying this, he turned around and quickly left Qianfu Palace.

The test did not reveal anything, but it did cause an awkward situation. He did not mean to see the situation that way, and Concubine Dou Ji's reaction was a little too intense.

Looking at his receding back.

The anger on Concubine Dou Ji's face gradually faded. She was so dissatisfied just now on purpose. How could a woman like her who had been tempered by the years not notice Qin Yun's furtive glances during the meal?

If I don't reprimand him, I'm afraid Qin Yun will become even more aggressive.

At this moment, there was a hint of maturity and vicissitudes in her beautiful eyes.

She cried softly, "How dare you be so lewd."

He sighed again: "Alas, Wang Min is not worthy of being reused. He couldn't even control an emperor who was so obsessed with beauty. It's no wonder that your Wang family fell."

……

Seven days later!

The court and the people finally came out of the rebellion.

On this day, Qin Yun issued an order to exempt all prefectures and cities in Daxia from taxes for one year, allowing the people to recuperate.

Moreover, merchants became friendlier towards tenants, and the amount of money that needed to be paid to the court was basically reduced by 20%.

People from all over Daxia cried with joy!

"Your Majesty is wise. These gentry have helped you to promote your image among the people. Your image has greatly improved!"

"Yes, Your Majesty. In order to distance themselves from the treason case, aristocratic families from all over the country have spontaneously cast statues for you and let the people worship them!"

"Shout out to the wise and holy ruler!"

Qi Yong and other ministers in the imperial study were flattering Qin Yun with a smile, praising him to the sky.

Qin Yun did not get carried away, as he still had a long way to go to improve his image.

He suddenly sneered and said, "The noble families in Hedong, Guanlong, Taiyuan and other places, do you think I am easy to fool?"

"Just by casting a few statues, you think you can get away with the rebellion? Even if they didn't participate, they still bear some responsibility!"

Gu Chuntang, dressed in purple, stood at the front with a righteous look, and said, "Your Majesty, not only the statue, but also the local tyrants have handed over a lot of silver and grain, which are still on the way."

"We will arrive at the imperial capital soon."

"In addition, in order to show their determination, the Wang family of Taiyuan has completely expelled Wang Wei's lineage from their ancestral tree."

Qin Yun snorted: "This Wang family is quite ruthless. They fawned over Wang Wei when he was in high spirits. Now that he has fallen, they immediately come to cling to me."

"But I'm not that kind!"

His face turned serious: "Gu Chuntang, immediately draft an order for me to have the head of the Taiyuan Wang family pay a tribute of one million taels of silver to the court, otherwise I will uproot the Taiyuan Wang family and not leave a single one alive!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this number!

The current national treasury only has more than three million taels of silver.

Zhao Heng wiped his sweat and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid the Wang family of Taiyuan can't come up with so much money. If you take it, they will be gone."

"Humph!" Qin Yun snorted coldly.

"If you can't pay it, just keep the debt and pay it back in installments every year!"

Gu Chuntang and others smiled bitterly, thinking that unless the Wang family of Taiyuan suffered serious damage this time, they would probably not have peace.

"Your Majesty, the Taiyuan Wang clan leader, Wang Zongling, intends to send his granddaughter to the imperial palace. It is said that this girl is proficient in everything from playing the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and she is also extremely beautiful..."

Zhao Heng gritted his teeth and kept praising the girl, saying that she was the best in the world.

Qin Yun said coldly: "Still coming? Do you think one Wang Min is not enough?"

As he spoke, he remembered Wang Min's escape.

He immediately glared at Qi Yong, the Minister of Justice, and the others: "What a bunch of rubbish! After so long, they haven't even found any trace of Wang Min! What are you doing!"

Qi Yong and others immediately knelt down, with bitter expressions on their faces, cursing Zhao Heng's ancestors for eighteen generations in their hearts.

Your wife is from the Wang family. It’s fine if you just speak up for the Taiyuan Wang family, but why do you have to implicate us?

Zhao Heng said: "Your Majesty, Wang Zongling's granddaughter is the Empress Dowager's intention..."
