Rather, they are members of aristocratic families, powerful people, wealthy families, and powerful people.
The emperor knew clearly that annexing land was digging his own foundation, but he did not dare to move. Why?
Just be afraid of these forces.
Therefore, after hearing the man's words, Yao Da laughed wildly. "You promise? You are a bitch, do you deserve it?"
The man raised his head and glanced at him. Yao shouted: "Do it!"
Several of his men drew out their swords and rushed forward. "What's the point of doing this!"
The man sighed, but his eyes were extremely cold, "Stay alive!" Two men behind him stepped forward.
Yao Da's men are all 'good players', at least in his eyes they are not weak. He smiled ferociously, pointed at the man and said, "Yeah, I'm going to put you in thirty-six postures."
Bang bang bang bang bang bang!
Yao Da opened his mouth and stared dumbfounded at his men who fell to the ground and howled miserably.
The two men clapped their hands and stood behind the man again. Damn it!
Yao Da was panicked and pointed at the man and said, "Don't run away if you dare!" The man shook his head and said, "I won't run away."
"You wait, you wait!"
Yao Da stumbled out, mounted his horse and left.
At the end of the day, he did not forget to point the riding crop at the man, "Bitch, if you have the guts, just wait!"
The thin man next to the man glanced at him with a look that seemed to show pity.
"Drive!" Yao Da rode away.
Zhang Qi of the Zhang family has just returned from Shu and is talking to the housekeeper Lin Shuo.
Zhang Qi, who was in his thirties, had a dark complexion. He took a sip of tea and sighed: "I have suffered a lot along the way with Your Majesty. I don't have enough to eat, and I don't eat well. I have to be exposed to the sun and rain, and I have to worry about it. I don't know.
When the rebels come after me, I don’t know where the next meal will be.”
Lin Shuo said: "Lang Jun, your Majesty, are you still waiting for a comeback?" "There is no hope." Zhang Qi shook his head, "He is just an empty shelf now. Li Xuan has a large army and defeated Shi Ni. Now it looks like
Come, he has the best hope."
"But this man is dissatisfied with the powerful clans. When he was in northern Xinjiang, he suppressed the powerful many times." Lin Shuo was a little worried, "If he ascends the throne, our life will be difficult."
"What kind of powerful people are there in Northern Xinjiang? They are just a bunch of local rich people who are proud of themselves." Zhang Qi said disdainfully: "Guanzhong is the foundation of the big clans. If nothing else, you run along the official road, and there are big clans on both sides.
Farms. Where there are farms, there are people, money and food. Guanzhong is the Guanzhong of the rich people. When he enters Chang'an, he, Li Xuan, will have to lie down in the palace and shake hands with us to make peace. Otherwise."
A stern look flashed in Zhang Qi's eyes, "Otherwise, what if we join forces and overthrow the Tang Dynasty?"
A servant came in and said, "Master, Yao Da wants to see you."
"Isn't he in charge of those farms? What are you doing here now?" Zhang Qi frowned and nodded.
Yao Da came in, knelt down and cried, "Lang Jun, someone in Deng Village ran away and wanted to join the army, but he was caught by the villain. The villain wanted to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, but some strangers came and beat him up. Please beg Lang Jun."
Call the shots."
"It seems that the Zhang family is still too tolerant to those idiots." Zhang Qi stood up and said with a smile: "In this case, these foreigners should be used to tell them that this place is still the Zhang family's paradise!"
Deng Jiu's family waited desperately for the arrival of their master. Mr. Han kindly advised the men, "Ms. Zhang is great, please leave as soon as possible!"
"There is a government office!" said the thin man.
Deng She sighed at the side: "Government? Government offices are all run by his family." "Really?" the man said.
"Of course." Deng She hesitated, and finally whispered: "Those officials are all colluding with the Zhang family. It is not wrong to say that it was opened by his family."
"No one cares?" the man asked.
"Who dares?" Deng She looked at the man, "The emperor dared not take care of them. Who do you think would dare to take care of them?"
The sound of horse hoofbeats came, Deng Shefei
He said quickly: "Let's go." After saying that, he quickly retracted into the crowd, lowered his head, as if he was integrated with the land. Dozens of horses galloped over and dismounted outside. The leader was Zhang Qi. Dozens of horses came at a gallop and dismounted outside. The leader was Zhang Qi.
The thugs came around him.
"Where did it come from?" Zhang Qi asked.
"North," the man said.
There was a lot of weathered look on their faces. Zhang Qi sneered, "I heard that you are going to provoke Mr. Zhang?"
The man smiled and pointed at the three members of the Deng family, "Let them go." "What if I don't allow it?" Zhang Qi said calmly.
"I heard that this is Zhang's paradise?" the man asked.
"Yes, so what?" Zhang Qi looked at the man, "Here, it's a dragon, you have to lie down for me, it's a tiger, you have to lie down for me!"
"So, this is Guanzhong?" The man squinted and looked at the villagers. "It turns out that since Guanzhong is the foundation of the emperor, it must have a large population and a lot of fields. I saw it today. There are a lot of fields, but most of them belong to wealthy families.
The population is large, but most of them are slaves and tenant farmers of the rich families."
He slowly looked at Zhang Qi, "Zhang Qi?"
"Exactly." Zhang Qi waved, and dozens of his men were ready to take action.
The man shook his head, "Guanzhong like this is not the emperor's legacy, but a disaster! Gu, I have learned a lesson today."
"Do it! Wait!" Just as Zhang Qi asked his men to take action, he suddenly stretched out his arms to stop his men.
He looked at the man carefully, "What did you just say?"
The man ignored him, "I thought there would be some surprises in Guanzhong, but I was not surprised, but I was surprised. The local wealthy people are so extravagant. Whose Guanzhong belongs to Guanzhong like this?"
Zhang Qi's cheek suddenly trembled, "Who are you?" The person who could call himself lonely was almost ready to speak out.
Zhang Qi looked carefully and saw that the man's eyes were deep and his movements were calm. His eyes looked at him as if he were looking at a bedbug. Ta-ta-ta!
There was a rapid sound of horse hooves.
Then, more than a hundred cavalrymen dismounted and walked in order. They walked to the man and knelt down on one knee.
"I have met His Highness!"
More than a hundred sergeants suddenly knelt down and shouted loudly, the sound of which made Zhang Qi's legs tremble.
"It's King Qin!" Yao Da was dumbfounded.
If a man tells a lie, these soldiers cannot lie. The person who came turned out to be the King of Qin.
But he actually called himself "yeye" to the King of Qin and called him a ***. Yao Da looked at Zhang Qi.
In the past, Zhang Qi was calm and unfazed when it came to things, and he didn't feel the slightest respect when he mentioned the emperor occasionally.
Can Mr. Lang save me?
The emperor in the past was Li Mi, who hid in the pear garden all day long. So what if he despised Li Mi?
No shit.
Li Mi was driven to Shu by Shi Ni, but Shi Ni was driven to the south by the King of Qin in front of him
Zhang Qi's body shook and he knelt down. "I have met His Highness!"
Yao Da's legs had already gone weak and he knelt down, "The villain is guilty." Only then did the villagers dare to believe that the man in front of them was King Qin. In an instant, they knelt down.
"I have met Your Highness." Li Xuan looked at Zhang Qi with his hands behind his hands. "I want Zhang's slave." This is Zhang's lifeblood!
Zhang Qi raised his head and said, "Your Highness, they are slaves of the Zhang family, and their bonds belong to the Zhang family. Even if the emperor comes, they cannot shake them at all."
This is the foundation of a great clan. If you want to shake the foundation of a great clan, aren't you afraid of being subverted?
He sneered in his heart and was sure that Li Xuan did not dare. Li Xuan looked at him.
"Mr. Zhang?"
Li Xuan said calmly: "The sin is unpardonable!"
He put his hands behind his hands and walked out of the village. After taking two steps, he turned back to Dundo and said, "I hope I can see you in the army next time."
He walked slowly, with Lin Feibao and Yang Lue behind him.
Jiang He'er, who was disguised as a woman, pointed at Zhang Qi and said, "Take it down!" Zhang Qi suddenly jumped up, "What's Zhang's crime?"
Just as Zhang Qi was about to shout, a sergeant came up and hit him with one punch.
on the lower abdomen.
Zhang Qi hunched over and pointed at Li Xuan's back, "You..." "Bah!"
The sergeant drew out his horizontal sword, turned it sideways, slapped it sharply, and cursed: "How dare you point at His Highness!"
Zhang Qi's mouth suddenly swelled up after being slapped.
The sergeant turned around and asked Jiang He'er for instructions, "How should we deal with this person?" Jiang He'er said with a stern face, "This person assassinated His Highness!"
"No!"
Zhang Qi grabbed the dirt with both hands and shouted at Li Xuan's back: "Spare your life! Your Highness, spare your life."
The villagers felt that the scene just now was like a dream.
Zhang Qi, the god in their eyes, lay on the ground and begged King Qin for mercy. A girl said: "He seems to be a dog!"
Deng Jiu was suddenly shocked, "Join the army? Your Majesty ordered the boss to join the army. Doesn't that mean you can resign from your citizenship?"
Mrs. Han was overjoyed and patted her son, "Kowtow to His Highness quickly."
Deng Duo kowtowed to King Qin's back and said in disbelief: "From now on, I will be a human being?"
He is no longer an ox and horse that Zhang can kill at will, but an upright person.
"Your Highness!"
Deng Duo cried, "I am a human being!" Li Xuan mounted his horse and looked back. The villagers kowtowed, overjoyed, as if they were reborn.
"Your Highness, after this move, the great clans in Guanzhong will probably be wary." Yang Lue said, "Those people are turning around one after another. If we join forces, there will inevitably be a lot of trouble."
At the beginning, the filial emperor did not dare to confront these people directly.
"Gu is just wondering, are those villagers considered Gu's people?" Li Xuan asked.
Lin Feibao was silent.
Yang Lue had to answer, and he sighed: "It doesn't count." Slaves are just cattle and horses, not human beings.
Moreover, in the Tang Dynasty, slaves were not registered in the household register.
In other words, at the national level, these populations do not exist.
"We are all human beings. We are all people of the Tang Dynasty. Why should some people be reduced to livestock?" Li Xuan's anger suddenly erupted. "Why should they be enslaved by the same kind of people? Why?"
"Your Highness" Lin Feibao glanced at Yang Lue. The boss is angry. Please persuade him quickly.
"Your Highness, this is a rule." Yang Lue smiled bitterly. "Kegu, I want to change this rule!"
Zhang's incident may not seem like a big deal, but it caused quite a stir.
After Cao Ying learned about it, she led her men and horses to chase the King of Qin. The rain fell on the way and it became colder and colder.
"Oh!"
Cao Ying, wearing a bamboo hat and raincoat, kept chasing her all the way. In Jiagu Pass, the guard general and his people were waiting.
"Your Highness is here."
Li Xuan arrived surrounded by more than a hundred riders. "I have met Your Highness." Everyone saluted.
"Is there any movement?" Li Xuan asked, reining in his horse. "No."
"Prepare dry food and leave immediately."
Li Xuan had to rush back to Yuezhou to prepare to lead his army south.
He walked up to Jiagu Pass and looked down at the pass for the first time.
The heavy rain fell, and the entire field of vision was covered with rain streaks. The rainwater dewed on the roof and the ground, stirring up water vapor. Then the water vapor was dispersed and mixed into the water flow, all the way to the end of the long street.
"Your Highness, be careful of catching cold." Yang Lue advised.
"No problem." Li Xuan shook his head and pointed in the direction of Guanzhong and said, "The capital was originally placed in Guanzhong because of the dangerous terrain. If the emperor abandons it, Guanzhong will become the nest of careerists."
In another world, Yang Guang was far away from Guanzhong, and Guanzhong immediately became a place where careerists were born.
"But the capital is in Guanzhong, but Guanzhong does not belong to the emperor. Yang Lue, do you think it's ridiculous?"
Yang Lue looked at the stern-faced King of Qin and sighed in his heart, "The great family has been entrenched for many years and cannot be shaken."
"Gu Ruo wants to move?" Li Xuan looked at him and asked. "Your Highness"
Yang Lue wanted to object, but when he looked into those eyes, his heart warmed up and he said, "My lord, I am willing to clear the way for Your Highness."
"This road is difficult to drive." Li Xuan squinted and looked into the distance. "There is the sound of horse hooves." Lin Feibao said.
Then, a group of cavalry appeared in sight.
The horse's hooves splashed water, the knight on the horse suddenly pulled the reins, and the war horse stood up with a long neigh.
Cao Ying dismounted, walked quickly through the water, and saluted, "I, Cao Ying, have met Your Highness."
Li Xuan looked at him, "Why are you here to lobby for those wealthy families?" Cao Ying's heart trembled, and she knelt down and said, regardless of the dripping water on the ground, "I don't dare."
"Get up!" Li Xuan shouted.
Cao Ying stood up, and Li Xuan looked at the rain curtain and asked: "To deal with Zhang alone is to scare the monkey. Someone will definitely cause trouble in the future. Do you know what to do?"
Cao Ying's heart trembled, "I should suppress it!" "There is no need to suppress it."
Li Xuan said calmly: "Those big families are all smart people. At this time, the old and the new are changing, they don't dare to make a sudden attack. Then, they will sit back and watch, and they will join forces. However, I want to see how much they can endure, maybe more than
Better than a bastard!"
Your Highness, is this not enough? Cao Ying's heart skipped a beat. "All the Zhang family's slaves are deregistered."
"yes!"
"Those whose masters are absent are treated as good citizens without an owner, and we encourage those people to quit their citizenship."
"This is digging roots! Your Highness!" Cao Ying was shocked.
"You have overestimated the servility of those people and underestimated the ruthlessness of those wealthy people. It is impossible for Gu to sweep them away by force, otherwise Guanzhong will become a battlefield."
Li Xuan's words made everyone feel relieved.
But then he sneered and said: "Spread the word, anyone who is willing to renounce their citizenship is Gu's people. If anyone wants to move among Gu's people, just give it a try."
