Chapter 374 Breakthrough
Chapter 374 Break the Pass
"When the previous dynasty fell, perhaps everyone was too obsessed with holding the land in their hands tightly in their hands, and no one noticed that some people were not where they were now reading in history books. In fact, how credible these historical books were and how much they could explain the chaotic situation at that time, rather than being interfered by the separate opinions of the countries and the things that ordinary people knew about, and not being introduced into a world formed by selective events constructed by politicians and literati.
Tan Weixin doesn’t know much about the construction of underground palaces and gardens here, but she can roughly calculate the cost of some of the projects. Even with the fiscal revenue of a huge unified country, such a project will never be able to be covered by one or two years of fiscal revenue. Not to mention, judging from the situation back then, the finances may not be as good as the year. Whether there is a surplus every year is a big question. The long-term allocation of a large amount of funds, manpower and material resources has made the national finance more exhausted and the public resentment has always been the only way to accelerate the collapse of a country.
After Tan Weixin briefly talked about this link, she immediately started with the complete story they had obtained from Chen Kai, and the story of a last prime minister who was not honest but was indeed an extraordinary ability. She described the formation and rise of Emperor Daoming Emperor, and the role played by the Miao descendants of the previous dynasty, the role played by the Chen family in it.
No one knows more about the story of the Chen family than Tan Weixin. Although Ye Tao summoned Chen Kai to Yunzhou to work, he only knew what kind of person Chen Kai was. Later, he just asked Chen Kai about his work performance. But Tan Weixin had a lot of contact with Chen Kai. At the beginning, he had to train Chen Kai in finance, and later, he had to constantly negotiate with Chen Kai about various data verifications in Yunzhou's finance and how to deal with some people who committed the crime. Sometimes, Chen Kai, the "miss mother", asked casually, said everything, and never concealed anything. Tan Weixin compiled a detailed context from Chen Kai's narrative and many other materials.
Those present, whether it is the third princess of Xiling, Commander Qin or the young ladies, have never heard of this kind of content. While attracted by the story, they were also shocked by the Chen family, the deep lurking and pains of the Miao people of the previous dynasty. After so many years of precipitation, it is true that the anger, dissatisfaction, and hatred of those years may settle down and become gentle, but it is also possible that the kind of family that regards the whole world as their own private property will deepen and expand this hatred from generation to generation. It would be fine if the Miao people of the previous dynasty never had the chance to restore the country. Once they had the chance to restore the country, they could really be unified by them. At that time, the person sitting on that throne would be a person who could not control, control or even influence.
Now, if we talk about opportunities, although these trinity economic, spiritual and political forces have lost an important part of the Chen family, the accumulated power cannot be underestimated. The influence of Emperor Daoming in the court and the opposition has reached the point where the Lord Xiling had to consider the thoughts and feelings of Emperor Daoming to a large extent when he made many decisions. Lord Xiling regretted transferring Sun Boping from Taizhou to the center. Indeed, after Sun Boping became the Minister of Revenue, he was hardworking and willing to work hard to make the court's financial process smoother in just a few months, and he cut off the redundant expenses of millions of taels per year. This is not afraid of this.
The sinner and capable general made the Lord Xiling feel much easier. But what is more troublesome is that he lost Sun Boping's direct support in Taizhou. Although the neutral governor of Taizhou is an old friend of Sun Boping, it is impossible to help the Leiyin Demon Sect like before. The Leiyin Demon Sect was not as fierce and direct as before in the fight with Daoming Sect. This time, the Lord Xiling summoned Lei Huang and others, which gave them some recognition, which was a pretty clear statement. However, Lei Huang and others were obviously unable to really devote themselves to the front line of the two sects in Zhongzhou, Taizhou, and the Lord were all talking about it because of the Lord's casual talk.
What if the Leiyin Demon Sect can't stand the Daoming Sect? What if the Daoming Sect can quickly reply from Ye Tao's ruthless men? What if the Daoming Sect's super-strait and military routes have continued to expand its influence over the years?... The Lord Xiling has always been worried about this problem. In Xiling, who has many aristocratic families, such a thing will actually make people helpless.
Tan Weixin's story made everyone silent for a while, constantly thinking about various issues. Although Tan Weixin's story has many details, these people are not so naive that they will regard all Tan Weixin's narrative as facts. After all, they are children of Xiling's aristocratic family, and where did Lu Zhen and his wife come out, what their identities are, and what purpose are they saying these words, which is still a question.
Of course, Tan Weixin was not naive, and they would believe what she said. In fact, Tan Weixin was just bored. This was also a preparation. They were planning to take the five people, including Commander Qin, away, but what if something happened? What if one or several of them escaped? After all, it is now in Xiling's territory, anything could happen. If such a thing really happened, it would be quite good to spread the story through them.
Tan Weixin gently stroked Ye Tao's head and gently straightened his hair. Ye Tao slept very heavily and did not wake up until an hour and a half later. After washing his face and rinsing his mouth, Ye Tao continued to toss the password disk. Seeing Ye Tao shook his head slightly after waking up, and immediately showed a confident expression, Tan Weixin shook her head secretly. Although she was as powerful as Ye Tao, she was still a big boy who likes toys in her bones. When faced with this kind of technical problem, he was much more skillful and happier than dealing with government affairs. Although she slept for an hour and a half, Ye Tao must have spent most of her time on simulated and cracked password disks in her dreams.
After putting on the earmuffs of cherry wood, Ye Tao began to crack the password disk again. After rest, both the strength and stability of his hands and the concentration of his spirit have improved a lot. The simulation in the dream also has many benefits. Although Ye Tao still doesn't know the structural configuration of the password rings in the outermost circles, he also has a lot of understanding of the craftsman's technical style based on the structure, settings, etc. of the previous rings. He also realized one thing. This password disk made of the sky, earth and stars as symbols, is a circle of rituals, after all, is an opinion clan ritual instrument. The password must be from the inside out. In the entire twelve ring settings, it must be a very auspicious combination, and it cannot be a vicious curse. After understanding this point, many arrangements and combinations were eliminated at once. With more knowledge and fewer possibilities, Ye Tao's progress in cracking the password disk has been much faster.
