Ninth Grade Jailer: He actually went on a blind date with the leader of the Demon Cult at the beginn

The great court meeting concluded with Li Nuo's strong words about establishing a new king.

Above the court, among the hundreds of civil and military officials, no one dared to disobey the majesty of the powerful Lord Wu'an.

Even the top leaders of the Zongren Mansion, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Dali Temple did not dare to have any objections to Li Zian's execution of the King of Yue without trial.

He killed the souls of Emperor Wenzong and Jingtai one after another, and then beheaded the vassal king. It is better not to mess with such cruel executioners.

All in all, at the critical moment of establishing a new emperor, it is better to tuck your tail between your legs and behave honestly, but don't let Li Zian catch the pigtails.

The next day.

Wear linen and wear filial piety.

The whole country mourned.

The cry was loud.

Qingyang looked up to the sky without makeup and dressed in cloth, personally carried Jingtai's coffin into the imperial mausoleum, and then announced it to the world in the Taimiao Temple.

The Jingtai Dynasty has come to an end.

The third day.

Under the auspices of the Ministry of Etiquette, the ceremony was held in full swing, fulfilling the will of heaven and the people, and the new king succeeded to the throne.

Hundreds of civil and military officials, dressed in red robes and purple uniforms, embroidered with plain embroidery of animals and birds, entered the palace to pay homage.

At this moment, Qingyang changed the identity of Princess Dayin into Empress Dayin.

Envoys from the Yao Clan, Donghai, Esoteric Sect, Sword Sect, and even the Sixteen Kingdoms of the Western Regions also went to court to congratulate the new king on his succession.

The Dayin Dynasty has thus begun a new chapter.

The first thing the new king did when he ascended the throne was to settle the coffin lids of Emperors Wenzong and Jingshun.

As Li Zian said, the new emperor changed the posthumous names of the two emperors to "Emperor Zhou" and "Emperor Jie".

All ministers in the court had no objections.

After all, what these two emperors did was indeed against human ethics. Not moving the memorial tablets of these two emperors out of the Ancestral Temple was an act of benevolence and justice, saving the last dignity of the Dayin royal family.

The second matter was a joint investigation by the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and the Supervisory Yuan to thoroughly investigate the case of Ye Changqing seventeen years ago.

The hearts of all the ministers are like bright mirrors.

This is Li Zian borrowing the help of the empress to overturn Ye Changqing's case.

There is no airtight wall in the World Bank, and people who are interested have already found out the news - Li Zian's beautiful concubine named Ye Ziyuan is Ye Changqing's granddaughter.

Therefore, no one dared to speak out to object, otherwise they would be in trouble with this powerful new Grand Master!

With the new king's accession to the throne, Dayin's government gradually got on the right track.

The young officials also heaved a sigh of relief. The empress did not make drastic changes as soon as she ascended the throne, nor did she even pursue responsibilities. In this way, the court was stabilized, and the young officials were favored. Not to mention that they were doing nothing for the empress, but at least they would not go against the will.

And this Grand Master, who made people both happy and fearful, came to the ceremony in person on the day the Empress ascended the throne, and did not appear again at other times.

Half a month later.

Luoyang Imperial Palace.

Li Nuo lay half-lying on the recliner, enjoying the considerate care and service of the palace maid.

"Iced watermelon is indeed a magical way to relieve the heat. One bite will make you feel extremely refreshed."

Taking a big gulp of the red-flesh watermelon handed to him by the palace maid, Li Nuo stretched out contentedly and said, "Although this palace is nice, I still miss the golden chrysanthemums that fill the palace in Chang'an. When can we go back?"

The empress rolled her eyes: "Isn't it bad to propose moving the capital back to Chang'an after only a month?"

Li Nuo looked up and down at this empress who showed off all kinds of charms in every gesture, and said with a smile: "I haven't shown up in the past month, and you have managed the court in an orderly manner. I think your position should be secure. Even if the capital is moved, who would dare to object?"

"Governing a big country is like cooking a small dish. There is no need to rush. Besides, if the capital is to be moved again, Chang'an Palace must be renovated? The manpower and materials required to move the capital add up to a large sum of money."

After becoming the empress, of course Li Lianyue cannot act willfully and must consider everything carefully, especially some policies that waste people and money.

Li Nuo joked: "I have only been an empress for a month, and I have already started to plan carefully."

Li Lianyue rubbed her temples and lamented: "Who asked me to take over such a mess? I just asked the transfer department, and now there is only one million taels of silver left in the treasury. But there are still three full months before the autumn harvest. Ah! In these three months, the Shangyang Pass side needs at least 500,000 taels of military expenditure, and the Yanjing side needs 200,000 taels of border support. The remaining 300,000 taels will even be used for the salaries of all officials and levels. Won’t come out.”

"Such a loss? How did you survive in the past few years?"

Li Nuo said in surprise.

He didn't care much about the court's finances before.

Now that his wife has taken over, of course he has to cheer up and find a way to tide over the difficulties together.

Li Lianyue felt a headache: "I asked, in the past few years... Prime Minister Cui has always subsidized the deficit, raising three million taels from the Cui family every year to replenish the national treasury! Of course, although three million taels is a lot, but Looking at the military, it is only enough for the Shangyang Army's military expenditure for one year. So the best thing to do is to demolish the east wall to repair the west wall. But after this demolition, when it comes to me, I feel that I can't support it."

"It seems that opening up the sea ban will be put on the agenda."

Li Nuo nodded.

"Although Donghai is rich...but is it really okay?"

Li Lianyue frowned slightly and looked at her sweetheart.

Non-my family, its heart must be different.

Although the Hai Clan behaved quite well this time, she did not dare to take it lightly.

What if the Hai Clan becomes interested in the Central Plains on a whim?

She specially summoned the envoys of the Sea Clan a few days ago. From what the envoy said, their queen was extremely ambitious. Half of the entire sea area is already in her hands.

Once the sea area is unified, she will be able to rival the former Sea Emperor.

In fact, a divided East China Sea, an ocean filled with thousands of ethnic groups, is best for Dayin's interests.

Of course, Li Nuo did not tell Li Lianyue about himself and Ling Caier.

Nothing else.

Somewhat unspeakable.

Originally, the relationship with Ling Cai'er was that of superior and subordinate at most. But with the strong thrust of the lady, she insisted on bringing them together.

He wanted to say that he was not a stallion.

But his wife's words made him hold back the words.

The lady said that a marriage that has been passed down for thousands of years is not unreasonable.

If you want to get a stable Donghai, then Lingcai'er must marry into the Li family.

Otherwise, the East China Sea would be more in line with the interests of the human race if it remained at war all year round.

In the end, Li Nuo had no choice but to sacrifice himself for the sake of the world!

"No problem, I'll take care of the money. Just sort out the administration slowly."

Looking at Li Lianyue's slightly haggard face, Li Nuo knew that she had really worked hard over the past month. He said a little ashamedly, "On the contrary, our marriage can only be postponed until next year."

The monarch is newly mourned, so this year is indeed not suitable for weddings.

Li Lianyue looked a little shy: "Then it's settled. Before August 15th, you have to get me one million taels of silver! Otherwise, I will punish you for deceiving the emperor."

It was clearly promised that they would get married after the Wu'an government was settled, but they actually broke their promise!

Li Nuo smiled and said: "Okay, okay, make sure to complete the task, otherwise I will leave it to His Majesty's disposal!"

Raising one million taels, actually killing a few corrupt officials from aristocratic families and ruthlessly ransacking their homes should be enough.

But when it comes to dealing with aristocratic families, the methods cannot be so tough.

At least he can't completely fall out with the aristocratic family until the poor boy has fully established himself in the court.

Therefore, Li Nuo finally turned his attention to the most prosperous and prosperous Jiangnan in Dayin.

The Jiangnan Auction House, which is owned by the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, is almost ready to start bidding.

The wealthy gentry in the south of the Yangtze River are as rich as the country.

Pulling off a layer of skin from these extremely wealthy gentry would be enough to relieve the urgent need.

Make a transition. See you tomorrow
