Chapter 125 Fan Bin, planning a rebellion? (Two in one)
"I wish everyone in Daqing could learn martial arts and become as powerful as a dragon!!"
Fan Bin's voice was resounding in the court.
All the officials in the court looked at each other in bewilderment.
There was a bit of confusion in their eyes. It was obvious that they had been confused by what Fan Bin said.
So much so that they all had the same question in their minds: Is this really the case?
seems like it!
Emperor Qing nodded repeatedly.
The military generals in the court were all as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
"There are so many people practicing martial arts, it's bound to cause trouble."
A civil official expressed concerns.
From the perspective of civil servants and dignitaries, it is natural for them to have such concerns.
The powerful ninth-rank masters were basically free from restraint. Even for the eighth-rank masters, if the imperial court wanted to punish them, it would cost a lot of manpower and resources.
If there are more strong people like this, it will inevitably bring chaos...
This is also a problem that the court, or the powerful people in the world, have always been worried about.
You have to know that among those nobles, not everyone has the talent to practice martial arts, let alone everyone can achieve success in this field.
Even most of the nobles were unwilling to endure the hardship of practicing martial arts.
This can be seen from several princes.
Except for the eldest prince who had practiced martial arts since childhood because he was not favored, the other three princes did not appear to have strong skills.
According to the resources they have and their personal qualifications, no matter how good they are, they can't even enter the eighth level?
But in fact, they just couldn't enter the eighth level.
"Does this mean that we should avoid seeing a doctor?"
"Because I'm afraid of getting sick, I don't even see a doctor. If I become seriously ill, how can I continue to run Daqing?"
Faced with Fan Bin's powerful questioning, everyone chose to keep silent.
Ask yourself.
They also felt that what Fan Bin said made sense.
However, Fan Bin had not finished speaking yet, and he continued to speak passionately.
"I have been in Daqi for nearly a year. During this time, I have seen some things that I have a deep understanding of. In terms of politics, economy, openness, and people's livelihood. How is our Daqing better than Northern Qi?"
This aggressive question left everyone speechless.
Compared with Northern Qi, Daqing has always been in a weak position. In terms of culture, they are far inferior to the other side.
Legend has it that the Northern Qi imperial palace was built according to the image of a temple in people's minds.
As for Daqing, they could only build the imperial palace in imitation of the Northern Qi style.
More than a decade ago, due to the sudden rise of Neiku, Daqing was reborn. They left Northern Qi behind in terms of economy and some technology.
But since the death of the mysterious boss of the Neiku, the Neiku became the private property of the royal family.
In addition, Northern Qi had already learned how to deal with it, so Daqing no longer had that overwhelming advantage.
So, from an economic point of view, they are not necessarily much stronger than Northern Qi.
"In this case, why do you still think that it would be easy for Daqing to annex Northern Qi?"
Having said that, Fan Bin looked around with a righteous look on his face.
"That's because the martial spirit of our Daqing is unmatched. You all believe that the iron cavalry of our Daqing can conquer the world and bring glory to the world forever."
"Because of this, how do you want me to disobey your majesty's good wishes?"
"Your Majesty has always been very kind to the Fan family, and I feel unworthy of this. But it's okay for me to refuse. How should the future Grand Master deal with it?"
Fan Xian was hiding behind the crowd, and when he heard what his eldest brother said, his eyes widened like bells.
His elder brother was so cruel that he even brought up the story of Confucius.
Although the officials of Daqing are extremely capable.
But facing the Holy One, they were clearly powerless to resist.
Unsurprisingly.
Everyone in the court shut their mouths obediently.
Some military generals looked at Fan Bin with admiration.
Fan Bin was originally the God of War of Daqing, and belonged to their military commander system. Now he has successfully advanced to the Grandmaster level, and has reached the pinnacle in the martial arts.
Fan Bin suppressed everything with force.
To those generals, it was all natural.
But their Daqing God of War did not choose to do so.
Instead, he used reason to silence the civil servants.
When has a military general ever shown such power?
Everyone's heart was pounding with emotion, and they looked at Fan Bin with stars in their eyes.
Looking around, no one spoke.
Everyone turned their attention to Prime Minister Lin Ruofu.
Although Lin Ruofu himself didn't want to speak.
He has a very special relationship with the Fan family, and his beloved daughter, Lin Wan'er, is about to marry Fan Xian.
This also means that their two families will become relatives.
In addition, there are no principled conflicts between them.
This means that even if he and the Fan family cannot become an alliance, they will still be good relatives.
With the appearance of a great master in the Fan family, the Lin family will have more confidence to confront the royal family.
In this situation, it was already very good that Lin Ruofu did not support Fan Bin.
What reason does he have to go against the Fan family?
But the butt determines the head.
Even if Lin Ruofu thought so in his heart, as the head of all officials.
Seeing that military officers were suppressing civil officials, he, as the prime minister, could not turn a blind eye.
There are three big men in the court who can sit in front of Emperor Qing.
Chen Pingping from the Inspection Institute has a special status and is disabled in both legs.
So he could stay outside the court.
One of the remaining two people with seats is Qin Ye, the representative of the military system.
The other one is Lin Ruofu.
Although Lin Ruofu was the head of all officials, in name only he commanded civil officials but also military generals.
However, the military system has its own leader. In this way, Lin Ruofu can really make decisions on the civil service system based on the six ministries of the imperial court.
So it can also be said that the civil servants were led by him.
"Master Fan said it well, the youthful spirit is inspiring and enlightening."
Lin Ruofu first affirmed Fan Bin's speech.
No matter what others think, Lin Ruofu has no intention of denying this.
Just like Fan Bin said, what if other grand masters emerge in the future?
If you sing a different tune at this time, you will not only offend Fan Bin, but also all the grand masters who may appear in the future.
Even Emperor Qing had figured it out, otherwise he wouldn't have nodded so frequently.
"But these gangsters only have martial arts skills but no etiquette. If they attack the people, how can the court control them? Even if the court can control them, will the people just die in vain?"
All the civil and military officials in the court, plus all the dignitaries.
Perhaps none of them really cares about the lives and deaths of the people.
But this does not prevent them from always talking about the people.
To put it bluntly, this is a big net with a high-sounding cover.
Warriors without any restraints would be a great threat even in today's Daqing.
If it is really as Fan Bin said, the number of warriors will increase exponentially in the future.
It would undoubtedly be a huge problem for Daqing to manage them.
After hearing Prime Minister Lin's words, many civil officials began to whisper.
"Yes, the people of Dawn are going to suffer."
"How can ordinary people learn martial arts?"
"Then you will be at the mercy of others."
These guys are not worried about the people, they are clearly worried about themselves.
In front of truly powerful warriors, they are actually no different from ordinary people.
Fan Xian obviously saw through this.
Facing such doubts from everyone, Fan Bin's face showed no change. He just looked around at all the ministers.
Facing his gaze, even though Fan Bin did not exude the intimidation of a grandmaster, everyone lowered their heads and shut up.
They whispered to each other so that they could tell it to Emperor Qing.
At the same time, it is also to put pressure on Fan Bin.
Now, Fan Bin has seen through them.
Naturally, they didn't dare to continue talking in front of Fan Bin.
People are all sophisticated and selfish.
These civil and military officials of Daqing have worked extremely hard to climb to their current positions.
Although logically speaking, they thought Fan Bin had no control over them.
Even though he is the Duke of Protectorate, the fifth greatest grandmaster in the world.
Fan Bin also had no qualifications to manage the officials in the court.
But that is in theory, not in physics.
If the fifth grandmaster in the world was determined to make one of them disappear.
Let me ask you, who can stop it?
The answer is obvious, no one can stop it.
This means that if the other party really wants them to die, then their deaths will be in vain.
I'm afraid even Emperor Qing won't stand up for them.
When everyone lowered their heads obediently, the hall returned to silence.
Fan Bin turned around and bowed to Emperor Qing.
"That is what I would like to ask of you, Your Majesty."
When Fan Bin spoke, even Emperor Qing was shocked.
After waiting for so long, what is supposed to come has finally come.
Emperor Qing's face was filled with joy.
"If you have any ideas, just tell me!"
The tone was so cordial that everyone could see how much Emperor Qing loved Fan Bin.
This caused those ministers who originally had evil intentions to become confused.
Did they think wrong before?
They saw that Emperor Qing had a bad relationship with Ye Liuyun, so they naturally thought that Emperor Qing might not like other grand masters either.
But this idea doesn't seem to be true.
The civil and military officials in the court did not know that the most mysterious grandmaster in the palace was Emperor Qing himself.
Many people think that the other grand master is Hong Sixiang.
It could also be other important figures hidden in the palace.
But as long as that person is not Emperor Qing himself, Emperor Qing cannot trust him 100%.
Unlike that grandmaster, Fan Bin grew up under the care of Emperor Qing.
Because of the relationship with the Fan family, a great master like Fan Bin suddenly emerged in Daqing. Perhaps Emperor Qing would be happy to see it happen?
Thinking of this, all the civil and military officials in the court felt as if something had suddenly become clear.
They seemed to suddenly understand many problems that they had not been able to figure out before.
On the other hand, Emperor Qing still had a smiling face.
It's hard to tell their true emotions.
Fan Jian, standing among the crowd, looked up at Emperor Qing.
Others all heard kindness in Emperor Qing's attitude.
It's just like the way elders treat younger generations at home.
But from Fan Jian's perspective, he felt completely different.
Fan Jian and Emperor Qing actually grew up together.
They are brothers from the same mother.
Fan Jian thought he knew Emperor Qing quite well.
If Emperor Qing really treated Fan Bin as his own, he would not deliberately show such intimacy in front of everyone.
Just like Emperor Qing treated Fan Jian and Chen Pingping.
To be honest, as an emperor, Emperor Qing was still very indulgent towards them.
In private, there is no need to follow such rules.
But when in front of everyone, Emperor Qing never put down his airs.
To the extent that until now, most civil and military officials are not clear about the relationship between Emperor Qing and Fan Jian.
If Emperor Qing hadn't deliberately kept his distance in front of everyone.
I guess this secret has already become known to everyone.
Which of these officials in the court doesn’t have his own connections?
If they really find any clues, they will never let it go and will definitely want to know the truth.
So as to avoid accidentally offending someone you cannot afford to offend.
But the truth cannot withstand scrutiny.
The fact that Emperor Qing lived in Danzhou when he was young is a huge clue.
Fan Jian lowered his head and suppressed his emotions.
Although Fan Jian also had some guesses about the case that year.
But without solid evidence, he was unwilling to doubt Emperor Qing.
But now it seems that Fan Jian suddenly feels.
He might not know Emperor Qing as well as he thought.
The king of Daqing was shrouded in mystery from beginning to end.
This also made Fan Jian give up the struggle in his heart. He had not yet made up his mind whether to hand over everything to Fan Bin.
Although his eldest son was indeed outstanding in all aspects.
But he is young after all.
He is a young man, and he has achieved success at a young age.
It is inevitable that we are not so comprehensive in some aspects.
It’s better to have an old comrade like him to help with the review.
But now, Fan Jian has given up.
He was afraid that his personal feelings would really affect his descendants.
From the moment Fan Bin was promoted to Grandmaster, there was no way for the Fan family and Emperor Qing to go back to the past.
Just when Fan Jian fell into deep thought.
Fan Bin's voice was heard in the hall. Although his voice was not loud, every word was clearly heard by everyone present.
"Your Majesty has been so kind to me and has bestowed upon me the title of Protector of the Nation. If it was simply because of my Grandmaster's accomplishments, I would be unworthy of the honor. But considering future generations and the long-term interests of Daqing, I have no way to refuse. I have thought of a way, and I hope Your Majesty will allow me to repay your kindness. I plan to open an academy in Danzhou."
Having said this, Fan Bin deliberately paused.
As he expected, all the civil and military officials in the court began to whisper to each other.
When a grandmaster takes in a disciple, he usually looks for talented and elite ones to guide.
For example, Ku He, the national teacher of Northern Qi, and Si Gu Jian of Dongyi City.
All of them belong to this category.
It's not surprising that Fan Bin, as a grandmaster, wants to accept disciples.
But he actually wants to open an academy?
This is completely different.
The disciples that Ku He and Si Gu Jian accepted alone are already a considerable force.
Each of them has taught several ninth-grade masters, and these ninth-grade masters alone can influence many things.
Fan Bin wants to open a college, and it is obviously impossible to recruit only a few people at this scale.
At least dozens of people, or even hundreds of people.
With so many powerful warriors gathered together, what kind of force is that?
Thinking of this, the eyes of all the civil and military officials in the court changed when they looked at Fan Bin.
This guy speaks so nicely, but actually does such unlordly and unfatherly things?
It is already extraordinary enough that your Fan family has a grandmaster.
Why do you want to build such a huge force?
Are you planning a rebellion?
