My subjects are too rebellious!

After lunch, Qin Chuan lay comfortably on the couch, watching the eunuchs busy serving the food.

In fact, the thing Qin Chuan couldn't accept the most when eating every day was poison testing.

On the first day after he came here, he was really scared by the dinner.

At least 50 eunuchs served him.

Busy with work, seven tables filled with food.

Qin Chuan really couldn't stand it. It was such a waste, and he had to eat it all by himself.

So after that dinner, Qin Chuan instructed that his three meals in the future must be simple and not extravagant.

Of course, the food on the seven tables was not wasted.

Part of it was to reward the eunuchs and palace maids and let them eat.

There seems to be a special word for this practice called "eating keshi".

This includes the food of the Empress Dowager and concubines in the palace. Most of the food they couldn't finish was like this.

After the eunuchs and palace maids had eaten but had not finished their meal, some dishes and snacks would be taken out of the palace by some people.

Sell ​​it to some common people at a low price, so that people outside the palace have the opportunity to eat their fill.

But if these seven tables of dishes were saved, how much money could be saved every day.

How many people can be helped by this silver?

So from that day on, Qin Chuan's daily imperial meal consisted of four or five dishes.

Zhang Rang was a little confused. He had been eating this way for seventeen years, so why did they suddenly change the diet?

This made him unable to see through the emperor even more.

...

Sima Yi's home is not like the palace. From both the exterior and interior of Sima Mansion, it can be seen that the mansion is not rich.

You can tell from the maids and servants in the mansion.

Sima Yi's daily pleasure was to prepare food for his wife.

"Madam, today I made your favorite mutton stewed noodles."

Sima Yi smiled gently and placed a bowl of mutton noodles in front of Zhang Chunhua.

"Thank you, husband."

Zhang Chunhua took the chopsticks handed to her by Sima Yi and started eating in small bites.

Sima Zhao watched from the sidelines and drooled: "Father, where is mine?"

"Go get your own bowl, and help your father get one bowl as well."

The stewed noodles made by Sima Yi were made with a rich mutton soup, cooked with top-quality tender mutton and mutton bones, and with plenty of side dishes such as mulberry leaves and wild amaranth.

The wide noodles look like jade belts, and paired with the fragrant mutton soup and red chili oil, they are fragrant, fresh, elegant and refined.

After the family had eaten their fill, Sima Yi and Sima Zhao left the house.

We got on a carriage and took many turns before arriving at an inconspicuous teahouse.

The two of them found a seat by the window and sat down, then began to chat casually.

"Father, this tea tastes good."

"Ah."

"Father, when will my eldest brother come?"

"almost."

...

Not long after, Sima Shi hurried in, and as soon as he sat down, he picked up the tea bowl on the table and started drinking.

After catching his breath, he leaned forward and whispered in Sima Yi's ear.

"Father, everything has been arranged."

Sima Yi did not move at all. He still sat at the table with an expressionless face, slowly sipping his tea.

Sima Zhao gave the tea shop owner a look, and the owner immediately understood what he meant.

He stood at the door of the tea shop holding a teapot, seemingly hawking his wares but actually watching.

"Where are the three thousand assassins now?"

After the tea stall owner went out for a while, Sima Yi suddenly spoke.

Sima Shi immediately replied: "All the troops have been divided into four parts of the capital. We only need one order to gather them together."

Sima Yi nodded and continued to sip his tea.

After a long silence, he spoke again.

"Clear the vast land and bring order to the wasteland."

Hearing this, Sima Shi hurriedly poured tea for his father and then spoke.

"If you can unify the world, you will be a hero of the time."

Sima Zhao also echoed, "To win over the people's hearts?"

"Control the people?"

After hearing what his two sons said, Sima Yi shook his head slightly.

"As the ancients said, he who wins the hearts of the people can become the Son of Heaven."

"He who wins the emperor's favor can become a vassal."

"He who wins the hearts of the princes can only be a great official."

"I wonder whose heart you can win over?"

Sima Zhao pondered for a moment, then said with a gleam in his eyes: "In the Wu Dynasty, everyone can be won over."

"I will make sure that all the people in the world can serve me." Sima Shi added unwillingly.

Sima Yi looked at his two sons, frowned and said: "Remember, win the hearts of the people and unify the world."

After seeing the emperor's methods, Sima Yi had to make preparations early.

He is a smart man.

A smart person will naturally not be willing to put his life in the hands of others.

So, he prepared to gather his strength and wait in secret.

On the other side, there was also someone planning something.

"General, the current situation is beneficial to him but not to us."

"Then according to your opinion, how should we deal with it?"

Zhu Di looked at the big monk beside him, stood up and asked.

"If we don't act decisively and eradicate the disaster, I'm afraid..."

When Zhu Di heard this, he shook his head helplessly.

"Master Daoyan, I'm afraid we can't force the situation now. Your Majesty is no longer the same as before."

Yao Guangxiao smiled nonchalantly: "General, the one His Majesty is most afraid of is not us."

"You mean..."

Yao Guangxiao nodded and continued.

"The way to deal with the world is to be able to adapt to changes. How can one be content with only one corner?"

"The same is true for the art of warfare. The key is to be able to react quickly and respond accordingly."

"Those three frontier officials are the group of people that Your Majesty is most afraid of right now."

Zhu Di understood a little and asked with burning eyes.

"Master Daoyan, seeing you in this state, what are you going to do?"

Yao Guangxiao laughed loudly and said, "General, don't forget that you are still the general of the Northern Expedition of the imperial court."

"We have been very careful and have not let any news leak out."

"The Wala tribe on the northern grasslands have been restless recently."

After hearing this, Zhu Di understood completely.

"Tomorrow I will ask His Majesty for some money. How can we not give some silver to this army that is marching to guard the border for the Wu Dynasty?"

After saying that, the two looked at each other and laughed.

The laughter is so unrestrained and free.

After leaving the palace, Yu Huatian went straight to the West Factory.

After losing their leader, the spies of the Western Factory became listless and dull.

Just when everyone was leisurely basking in the sun and resting their eyes.

A shrill voice sounded: "Which blind dog slave dares to block our..."

Before he could finish his words, the eunuch who was shouting immediately knelt down and trembled after seeing the person in front of him clearly.

"I didn't know it was the Lord Governor who came. Please spare my life! Please spare my life!"

Yu Huatian glanced at him viciously, then looked at everyone.

No one dared to meet that terrifying gaze.

"From now on, the entire West Factory will unite as one and serve Your Majesty."

"If anyone is careless and slack, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

The eunuch who was kneeling on the ground begging for mercy suddenly raised his head and asked, "Master, where is the Queen?"

What answered him was Yu Huatian's terrifying palm.

In an instant, the eunuch who was speaking just now turned into dust.

The Western Factory spies around were all terrified. They rushed to Yu Huatian and knelt down one by one.

"I will follow the Lord's orders!"

Yu Huatian glanced at everyone coldly and said: "From now on, all my spies from the Western Factory must not bully the people, must not bully others, and must not accept bribes."

"If I find out, you'll end up like him!"

With a loud shout, the internal strength of two hundred and eighty-two years mixed with the sound echoed in the ears of everyone in the Western Factory.

"I will follow the Lord's orders!"

Yu Huatian left with satisfaction, leaving behind a group of spies slumped on the ground.

The timid ones even left a pool of unknown liquid on the ground.

But these are not what Yu Huatian is considering, he has now returned to the secret room.

He concentrated on practicing his skills and regulating his body so that he could recover as soon as possible.

Only in this way can we work for Your Majesty!
