Chapter 369: Divide and Suppress, Pulling Out the Fire(1/2)

After silently reciting the words in his heart to his 30,000 disciples, Mi Yang turned his head and looked at Xiao Pu, who was already trembling with fear.

As the temporary leader of those officials who opposed the implementation of the three-chief system, Xiao Pu was already trembling with fear, not to mention other officials.

When looking at Xiao Pu, Mi Yang walked towards him again.

As Mi Yang walked towards Xiao Pu, the officials beside him were so frightened that they fell to their knees.

Because they clearly felt the murderous aura from Mi Yang's body at this time.

Mi Yang had great military exploits and a brilliant reputation, but the murderous aura in him was unmatched by Deng Ai.

Mi Yang took charge of Nanzheng for nearly half a year, although he was quite decisive in dealing with Deng Xian and other rebellious generals.

But after all, many officials present at that time were not the targets of Mi Yang's punishment, so they did not feel murderous intent from Mi Yang at that time.

But time passed, and when they personally felt the undisguised murderous intent on Mi Yang's body, they understood why Deng Xian and others showed such ugly behavior out of fright on that day.

The person I am now is not much better than Deng Xian and others back then.

When Mi Yang gradually approached Xiao Pu, Xiao Pu wanted to act tougher after feeling the murderous aura released from Mi Yang.

Even because he was in his prime, a dangerous idea came to his mind.

However, under the pressure of Mi Yang's increasingly serious momentum, Xiao Pu became more and more unsteady on his feet.

After seeing the soldiers surrounding him, Xiao Pu felt that the dangerous idea in his mind just now was very ridiculous.

Today's military parade was originally a big game played by Mi Yang. As a trader, how could Mi Yang fail to predict everything?

He himself might have been regarded by Mi Yang as a chess piece that could be discarded at any time.

After realizing this, Xiao Pu could no longer hold up his already shaky body. When Mi Yang was about to walk in front of him, he knelt at his feet.

When Xiao Pu, like most of the officials present, knelt at Mi Yang's feet, it meant that the reactionary forces led by Xiao Pu who opposed the implementation of the three-chief system were already under Mi Yang's control.

Seeing Xiao Pu surrendering at his feet with a pale face, Mi Yang had no intention of sparing him.

Some things always involve blood.

Besides, Xiao Pu's behavior just now has already committed the crime of disrespect.

Mi Yang said to the soldiers who had already gathered around him and the ministers who dared to openly oppose him just now: "Take them down."

Mi Yang's tone was very indifferent, as if she was talking about something insignificant.

But when the three faint words "Mi Yang" appeared in everyone's ears, waves of wailing sounds suddenly sounded from the high platform.

Those three words may not have mattered much to Mi Yang who was in control of the overall situation, but for those officials who opposed Mi Yang's implementation of the three-chief system, it directly declared their death.

Most people are afraid of death.

Especially for these pampered officials.

But no matter how loud their wails were, Mi Yang remained indifferent.

When they openly threatened Mi Yang just now, they should have known what would happen if their threat failed.

Because of the fear in their hearts, many officials fell to their knees and crawled to Mi Yang's feet step by step.

They were lying on their knees, constantly crying about their achievements in the past, and also crying that they were all Mi Yang's subjects.

I hope Mi Yang can take these two points into consideration and bypass them this time.

Seeing so many officials prostrate themselves begging for mercy, even Lu Yi, who was known for his uprightness, couldn't bear it.

He came to Mi Yang's side and wanted to ask Mi Yang how to deal with the begging for mercy from so many officials.

Facing Lu Yi's question, Mi Yang seemed puzzled and asked:

"Perhaps many people also begged them like this back then?"

"Where are they now?

Aren’t those common people just lonely subjects?”

After hearing Mi Yang's question, Lu Yi fell into silence.

He understood Mi Yang's decision.

So Lu Yi waved his sleeves and commanded the soldiers on the high platform with a cold face, and took down all the officials who had openly threatened Mi Yang just now.

Under the wolf-like operation of a group of elite Liang troops, most of the officials on the high platform were quickly taken away.

After most of the officials on the high platform were taken away, only a few officials were left on the high platform.

These officials were able to escape this disaster not because they supported the three-chief system, but because they did not openly oppose Mi Yang just now.

It was also because some of them began to waver in their attitudes under Wu Yi's choice.

However, even though they were not taken off the platform immediately, the dozens of surviving officials looked at the empty surroundings and recalled that their colleagues were talking and laughing with them just now.

And now?

All the chatter and laughter turned into the sound of crying and howling coming from the steps of the high platform.

Looking at the empty surroundings and listening to the bursts of mournful wailing, the fear in the hearts of the dozens of surviving ministers was no less than that of the ministers who were dragged away.

They were both from aristocratic and wealthy families, and they had done the same things that those who were dragged away had done.

But compared to those whose family backgrounds are higher than mine, I had a lot of scruples when doing those things in the past, and my courage was not as great as theirs.

But just for the sake of these two points, will Mi Yang let them off easily?

Thinking of Mi Yang's decisive measures just now, they felt no confidence in their hearts and shuddered.

Just as the dozens of surviving officials expected, Mi Yang would not let them go so easily.

Unless they can obey his arrangements obediently.

Looking at the officials who were trembling on the ground, Mi Yang's cold voice came out:

"I know you are guilty."

Mi Yang's words directly broke through the fragile psychological defenses of dozens of officials.

But just when they were about to burst into tears like those seniors, Mi Yang said something else: "But I am willing to give you the opportunity to redeem yourself and make meritorious deeds."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Mi Yang's turning point is like the sunshine in the cold winter, shining into the hearts of dozens of officials present who are about to collapse.

They all cried with joy.

They heard from Mi Yang's words that Mi Yang wanted them to do something.

What Mi Yang wants them to do must not be easy, otherwise Mi Yang would not forgive them so easily.

But in the face of the threat of death, as long as you can save your life, what else can't you do?

Compared to the seniors who were dragged away, they were already considered very lucky.

Under this mentality, dozens of Liangzhou officials all kowtowed to Mi Yang and kept shouting:

"I am willing to die for Uncle Shepherd."

In desperation, dozens of Liangzhou officials who had read poetry and books in the past could not think of anything good to say.

They can only keep repeating this sentence, the words that best express their feelings.

After hearing the answers from these officials, Mi Yang nodded with satisfaction.

There are still many officials in Liangzhou who are aware of current affairs.

Mi Yang waved to Ding Feng to bring a mazar.

The sitting posture of scholars in the Han Dynasty was the standard kneeling posture.

It was only during this era that Mazar, a product similar to chairs of later generations, had begun to become popular among the nobles of the Han Dynasty.

Compared to people of the current generation, Mi Yang, who comes from a later generation, will of course have a soft spot for products like Mazar.

The heavy weight of the uniform made Mi Yang uncomfortable standing for a long time, so he wanted to sit on the horse and talk with these officials who were willing to obey him.

After Mi Yang sat on the horse that Ding Feng had brought, Fa Miao, Li Yan and other ministers came to stand behind Mi Yang.

Together with Mi Yang, they looked at the officials kneeling on the ground.

Facing this scene, the fear in the hearts of those officials became even more intense.

The pressure of one Mi Yang's eyes was already unbearable for them, and now there were many more eyes scrutinizing them out of thin air, which made them even more unbearable.

Fortunately, Mi Yang didn't keep them waiting for long. After sitting down, Mi Yang looked at them and said:

"First: You are all members of Liangzhou, and most of you are descendants of aristocratic families in Liangzhou counties.

Although the three-chief system benefits the country and the people, many people are ignorant. When the state government officially promulgates the three-chief system and implements it in all counties and counties, you must educate the people.

Don't let them develop a bad feeling for the three-member system under the instigation of traitors."

What Mi Yang said about how ignorant the people were was not a slander, but the real current situation of the world.

The vast majority of people in this world don't even have formal names, let alone how to read.

In this case, the common people are easily provoked by people with malicious intentions, such as those wealthy and powerful families with strong influence in the local area.

In fact, this is not entirely the result of people's illiteracy. This result is also because people have a strong herd mentality.
