I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory
Chapter Summary
”Yan Song also stepped forward: “Report to Your Majesty, your humble servant’s plan of sowing discord was also successful, they promised to give your humble servant 600,000 taels of silver! ”Li Linfu also came forward: “Your Majesty, this is the 300,000 taels deposit they gave to your humble servant, please check it! I will now command Generals Tiangong, Digong, and Rengong to go and eliminate the Shadow Division of the Great Jin Empire lurking in Great Xia!
He returned very frustrated and reported the situation to the Deputy Commander of the Shadow Division.
After hearing the report, the Deputy Commander also trembled with anger.
“1.
5 million taels, he’s outright taking advantage of the situation!
This is outrageous!
Let’s leave this person be for now and find another way with someone else!
”Xu Dong became anxious: “Commander, we can’t just ignore him!
He’s in charge of the Ministry of War and has the authority to supervise the military.
If he doesn’t relent, all our plans will fall through!
”The Deputy Commander was furious: “Are we supposed to just let ourselves be slaughtered?
”Xu Dong nodded bitterly.
The deputy commander thought for a moment, then waved his hand impatiently, “Forget it, let him take advantage for now!
I will take care of him myself later after the matter is settled!
”“Commander is wise!
” Xu Dong bowed with both hands.
“Right, who’s next?
”“The next one is the Minister of Revenue and concurrently the Minister of Works, Heshen!
” “…”The deputy commander blinked, “What’s he like?
”“More corrupt than all the others combined!
”The deputy commander: “…”A day later, Xu Dong returned with a grave expression.
“Commander, the other party is demanding two million taels of silver, not a penny less.
What do you think…”The deputy commander flew into a rage: “The audacity!
This is outrageous!
They are all corrupt officials, each of whom is more corrupt than the other, they all deserve to die!
That foolish emperor, why doesn’t he execute them?
What’s the point of keeping them?
”Previously, seeing so many corrupt officials and so much corruption in Great Xia had excited him.
Because of the corrupt officials, he had opportunities!
The more corrupt officials there were, the more opportunities he had!
But now, he just wants to kill this group of people who are a disaster to the country and a curse to the people!
He wanted to flay them, dismember them, and subject them to slow slicing…To let them endure all the extreme punishments in the world!
Otherwise, he couldn’t calm the fury in his heart!
“Commander, should we pay the money or not?
” Xu Dong asked quietly.
The deputy commander angrily said, “Pay him!
Give him whatever he wants!
After this is over, I will personally deal with him!
Let him earn the money but not live to enjoy it!
”“Yes, Commander!
”Then, they used money to bribe some of the minor officials in the court.
Their ranks were not so high, so they didn’t dare to ask for as much.
But when added up, it still exceeded two million taels of silver.
Including the previous amounts, it was already over seven million taels of silver.
The annual national treasury income of an ordinary great kingdom was also around seven million taels of silver.
Although they were an established empire with strong finances, this was still a bit too much for them to handle.
At this moment, the Deputy Commander truly wanted to purge Great Xia of its internal problems and exterminate this group of parasites.
The only consolation for him was that, after paying such a staggering price, they had finally bribed over half of the officials in the court.
As long as they acted together, even the three generals Tiangong, Digong, and Rengong, whom the Great Xia Emperor highly trusted, would probably not be able to keep their positions.
Even if they didn’t lose their lives, being stripped of their positions was inevitable.
Moreover, the trust between the emperor and his subjects would no longer be as strong as before.
This was their opportunity!
Once everything was ready, Xu Dong once again approached Qin Hui.
“Minister Qin, everything is prepared, you can take action now!
”“Alright, wait for the good news from this old man, I definitely won’t let you down!
”On the second day, Lin Beifan rarely attended the early morning court.
At the court session, Qin Hui presented a banknote worth 200,000 taels, loudly reporting: “Report to Your Majesty, the plan of sowing discord has been successful!
They promised to give your humble servant 500,000 taels after the success of the plan!
This is the 200,000 taels deposit they gave as a sign of good faith, please check it, Your Majesty!
”Yan Song also stepped forward: “Report to Your Majesty, your humble servant’s plan of sowing discord was also successful, they promised to give your humble servant 600,000 taels of silver!
This is the 200,000 taels deposit they gave to your humble servant, please check it, Your Majesty!
”Li Linfu also came forward: “Your Majesty, this is the 300,000 taels deposit they gave to your humble servant, please check it!
”One by one, the high-ranking court officials stood up, presenting the large banknotes with both hands.
The other officials were dumbfounded.
“What’s going on here?
”“Why can’t I understand?
”Lin Beifan looked at the collected banknotes and laughed heartily: “Good!
Well done, Ministers!
”The total amount of these banknotes was nearly 3 million taels.
Moreover, over 4 million taels of silver that were being transported had already been intercepted and robbed by Lin Beifan.
In other words, he easily made over 7 million taels of silver through this operation.
“After this matter is concluded, we will discuss rewards based on your contributions!
” Lin Beifan said spiritedly.
“Thank you, Your Majesty!
” The officials beamed with joy.
Completely puzzled, General Rengong stepped forward: “Can someone tell what exactly is going on?
”Cao Cao laughed and said: “Generals Tiangong, Digong, and Rengong, haven’t you been searching for the person secretly plotting against you?
”“Yes!
”The three generals nodded, speaking with resentment: “But the person behind it all has been hiding too well.
We’ve exhausted ourselves and only caught a few small fry, which is really frustrating!
”“In fact, His Majesty has already found them.
It turns out to be the Shadow Division of the Great Jin Empire, trying to tempt you three to serve them!
When one plan failed, they tried another, but His Majesty saw through it and turned their plan against them, making them cough up a good amount of silver!
”“Really?
That’s amazing!
” General Rengong burst into laughter.
“Your Majesty, where are they?
The three of us brothers will go and capture them right away!
” General Digong said eagerly.
Although General Tiangong didn’t speak, his face was full of anticipation as he looked at Lin Beifan.
Lin Beifan immediately gave the order: “Very well!
I will now command Generals Tiangong, Digong, and Rengong to go and eliminate the Shadow Division of the Great Jin Empire lurking in Great Xia!
In addition, I will send the Heng Ha Generals, Deadly Scholar, Empty Hand Master, Heavenly Dog Divine Detective, and others to assist you.
Don’t let a single one escape!
Bring them back alive or present their bodies!
”“Thank you, Your Majesty!
” The three generals said in unison.
Then, the court’s masters swiftly sprang into action.
A total of eight Innate experts divided into eight directions surrounded the small courtyard and initiated a bloody slaughter, not letting a single one escape.
Even the Shadow Division’s deputy commander who was the most powerful among them died under the chaotic blades.
