Chapter 1026(1/2)

This is not stupidity, but strong self-confidence.

The collective dismissal of officials across the state had an unprecedented impact, and this was his biggest reliance.

There are no officials, administrative paralysis, and local chaos.

If things go on like this, even the emperor can't stand it, and he has to invite these people back.

Isn’t there nothing like this in history?

So Youwan now has the mentality of sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai.

Young emperor, you take things for granted.

He felt that His Majesty really underestimated the seriousness of this matter.

You can levy business taxes, you can also fight against corruption and eliminate corruption, but if you want us to pay taxes, that will definitely not work, not even to death. We will definitely fight to the end!

"We must fight to the end!"

There was a fat middle-aged man in the scene who was well-built and dressed in Chinese clothes. He said directly: "I have privately hired Hu San's gang to cause trouble. When the little emperor enters the city, I will give him a slap in the face!"

This man is a famous squire landowner in Huai'an, who owns thousands of acres of fertile land!

Ancient times were an agricultural society, and land was the basis of survival and the most direct criterion for measuring wealth and poverty.

If you have more than ten acres, you are a landlord, if you have more than a hundred acres, you are a big landlord, and if you have more than a thousand acres, you are a rich man!

Li Songshi is such a rich man.

He himself is a Juren, and his family also has many famous scholars. The land is in the names of these people, so he has thousands of acres of fertile land without paying a penny of tax.

Officials and gentry all receive food from one body.

He is the latter, doesn't this cost his life?

Therefore, he also strongly resisted.

Contribute money and effort!

The chaos in public security after the dismissal was caused by man-made things.

The purpose is naturally to force Guan Ning to bow his head and take back his life.

"Yes, we have already done so much, what else can he do?"

Everyone has a relaxed look on their face...

"Bang!"

Just then.

The door was pushed open.

An official walked in hastily.

He is Zhang Zhong, the Prime Minister of Huaizhou. He did not participate in this discussion, but was out seeking information.

"His Majesty has entered the city!"

This was Zhang Zhong's first sentence.

Seeing his panicked and solemn look, everyone was frightened.

Zhou Cheng is the second-in-command in a state, and he has never been seen like this.

"So what if we enter the city?"

Youwan was not in a hurry at all.

"After His Majesty entered the city, he announced the implementation of martial law. Anyone who dares to rebel and cause chaos will be severely punished. Hu San and the others are already dead!"

"What?"

Li Songshi sat up.

"There must be more than twenty people dead, and the rest have been arrested."

Zhang Zhong looked very serious.

It's really serious if it leads to death.

Youwan took a deep breath.

He didn't expect that His Majesty would be so radical, so wasn't he afraid of causing public outrage?

You must know that the new emperor's popular support in the south is really not strong...

"Really dare to kill someone?"

The big landowner Li Songshi's fat face was full of flesh. He gritted his teeth and said: "Then I will find more people to make trouble and see if they can be killed cleanly!"

"There are so many people who want money rather than their lives. Not to mention opposing the emperor, even if they are asked to confront the King of Heaven, they dare to do it!"

"Yeah, what are you afraid of?"

You Wan said: "Martial law is only temporary. If we don't do anything for a long time, the people will start to make trouble. If we continue to dismiss officials, what can he do? Can he kill us?"

"Yeah, what can you do to us?"

"The law does not punish everyone, come and kill us all!"

A few radical people are clamoring here.

Zhang Zhong continued: "That didn't say how to deal with it, but His Majesty entered the state government and has issued an announcement. Those who are dismissed from office will not be hired!"

"What?"

A clamoring official just now hesitated and asked, "What does this mean?"

"That's what it means literally. Your Majesty has given you one day. If you don't take up your post within the time limit, your official status will be wiped out!"

Zhang Zhong's words made many people's expressions change drastically.

"This...shouldn't you dare to do this?"

"Yes, there are so many officials in one state government office alone, and this does not include the officials of Huai'an City. Is it true that with so many people, none of them are retained?"

“With so many vacancies, how can we fill them?”

Everyone said something to each other, but none of them were as stable as before.

Confrontation is confrontation, and making trouble is making trouble.

The so-called dismissal from office is actually just a superficial talk, so why not say resignation? Isn't it more direct than dismissal from office?

After all, I still can't bear to lose my official position.

Now they were all panicked.

"What should I do? I don't want to lose my official position!"

An official who was clamoring just now is anxious now.

This person holds the position of director of the state government office and is considered to have authority and authority.

"I don't want to lose it either. If my official status is really wiped out, what will I do?"

Everyone yelled.

Guan Ning guessed correctly, none of them had the determination and courage to really give up their official positions.

Being an official is powerful and powerful, but it is not something you can just give up.

The scene was instantly chaotic.

"Quiet!"

As soon as Youwan slapped the table, he stood up and said coldly: "Don't panic, Your Majesty, he is just scaring people. Think about it carefully, he doesn't want so many people, so who will manage government affairs?"

"Your Majesty seems to have brought someone here. Didn't he establish a new tax department?"

"Don't be frightened. I won't go anyway, and you are not allowed to go either!"

Youwan could only use force to oppress him.

"You should immediately inform the subordinates under your jurisdiction that no one can take up their posts. This is a trick to attack people's minds. Don't be fooled and don't mess up your position!"

Yuvan shouted.

But it's of no use, because it's really a mess...

On the same day, this announcement spread throughout Huai'an City, and it was targeted at the officials.

The period is very short.

From the announcement, there is only one day.

There is not much time left for them, and no one is sure whether this is true or not?

They are in tangle.

This is the first boycott confrontation, and both sides have already laid out their conditional cards.

If we don’t fight to the end, we still don’t know what the outcome will be.
To be continued...
