The situation in Guanzhong has undergone drastic changes because of this innovation.
The powerful families that used to rely on their huge population and land to compete with the emperor have withered away. According to the views of civilian politicians, these people still look like behemoths, but their foundations were cut in half by the emperor.
This half is the population and land, and the other half is more complicated and is their huge influence in the officialdom.
Their influence in the officialdom is still there, but it seems a bit weak due to the loss of population and land.
Without the population and land, facing the emperor who controlled the army, they had no choice but to change their way of fighting.
The aftermath of this incident will be long, but the emperor turned his attention to Shu...
Jinyiwei secret spies appeared frequently, and both Xuanxue and Yunshan had earlier sent their disciples with wide connections to Shu to contact foreign forces.
Yizhou is mountainous.
And the mountains and rivers are beautiful.
In the eyes of outsiders, it is the first-class place for cultivation.
To leave the world and become a monk, you have to find a place that pleases you.
Otherwise, looking at the barren mountains and rivers every day, how can we feel the mood to cultivate?
Therefore, some people say that the so-called outside world is actually the world of mortals.
Qianshan is a famous mountain in Yizhou. The mountains are good, and they are beautiful and majestic. The water is good. There are small streams flowing in the mountains, deep pools, and roaring waterfalls.
For such a famous mountain, it is natural that outsiders like it and build huts on it to practice cultivation. Later, there were more and more people, and there were many grand halls and monasteries everywhere.
"An outsider refuted it, but what did that person say... If the six sense organs are truly pure, why would they care about the likes and dislikes of mountains and rivers?"
Huolun, the headmaster of Qianshan, stood in front of the main hall. The statues in the hall behind him looked particularly majestic. Elder Jiang Hong stood beside him and said: "Those people don't know that only good mountains and good water can cultivate emotions. If
Poor mountains and rivers will only make people restless and restless."
"He is not wrong in what he said." Huo Lun said: "If you really want to practice cultivation, the five tones, five colors and five flavors are all illusions. Since they are illusions, where can the joy and restlessness come from?"
Jiang Hong smiled and said: "We are still mortals after all!"
"That's right!" Huo Lun also laughed.
"Who said this?" Jiang Hong asked.
"Metaphysics Zhuang Xin."
"That drunkard?"
"The Wine Soldier system relies on drinking to understand secret skills. The better the drink, the deeper the understanding." "How about Johnson's drinking capacity?"
"I don't know."
A disciple came up from the mountain gate and saluted, "Master, we have a visitor."
"Oh!" Huo Lun asked, "Do you have a famous post?"
"No, the person who came here said his surname is Zhuang."
"Hey!" Huo Lun was startled, "What does that person look like?"
"She looks...a little haggard, but she has a huge wine gourd around her waist. She is drinking outside the mountain gate right now!"
"That's incredible!" Huo Lun was a little surprised.
Jiang Hong said: "The man from Chang'an originally studied in Xuanxue, and later Xuanxue also followed him to Northern Xinjiang. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are a family. Now that Shu and Chang'an are at war with each other, Zhuang Xin has come to Yizhou.
Master, the person who came here is not a good person!"
"No matter what, it's hard to refuse. Junior brother, go and greet me on my behalf."
"That's fine!"
When Jiang Hong arrived outside the mountain gate, he saw a tall man with a messy beard leaning against the pillar of the mountain gate, drinking wine with his head raised.
"The wine from Shu is too soft and not as sweet as the wine from Bei!"
This man was none other than Zhuang Xin, the leader of the Wine Soldier Department. When he heard the footsteps, he turned around calmly.
"Qianshan Elder Jiang Hong." Jiang Hong held his hand.
"Metaphysics Zhuang Xin!" Zhuang Xin held the wine gourd in his hand.
This man really never leaves his mouth with wine!
"please!"
"Thank you."
The two of them climbed up the stairs.
Jiang Hong probed: "I wonder why Mr. Zhuang is here..."
"I'm looking for your master to drink wine."
Johnson lifted the wine gourd, his throat moved, and he opened the cork and took another sip.
hehe!
After several attempts, Zhuang Xin refused to reveal his intention, so Jiang Hong gave up his thoughts.
Huo Lun met Zhuang Xin in the yard at the back. This was inside Qianshan. Even if he said something, he didn't have to worry about anyone snitching on him.
"Lao Huo!"
When Johnson saw Huolun, he grinned and punched him on the shoulder.
Huo Lun easily avoided it, pointed at him and said with a smile: "You are still so careless."
"What I cultivate in metaphysics is free and easy, and what I cultivate in wine and soldier department is this kind of free and easy!"
The two exchanged pleasantries, and Huo Lun asked, "I am very proud to hear that Xuan Xue is now in charge of the Imperial College in Chang'an."
"The headmaster actually doesn't want to return to the Imperial College." Zhuang Xin said, "It's just that His Majesty's kindness is hard to refuse."
"At any rate, it's an inheritance!" To be honest, Huo Lun envied Xuan Xue's comfort of being protected by the emperor.
"Old Huo, how is Qianshan doing in Yizhou now?" Zhuang Xin asked.
"Hey!" Huo Lun sighed: "It's okay, I'm still alive."
"Have you ever thought about changing your way of life?"
"What you said..."
"The false emperor is waging war in Yizhou, so Qianshan probably has to be harassed by him!" "The one who sent envoys to Qianshan asked Qianshan to send good soldiers to protect him."
"You agreed?"
"The school grounds in Tongcheng have been expanded three times, and the shouts of killing are loud every day. Do you think I can refuse to agree?"
"That's right." Johnson nodded, "Actually, people! You have to be tolerant."
"That's right, but you have to wait and see. Anyone who is angry will be repaid, and love will be implicated." Huo Lun looked at Johnson.
"Retribution must be retaliated to the outside world. The same is true for involvement. Guanzhong! There was a turmoil before I set off. However, someone said that we will not engage in involvement."
"Oh! Really?"
"I rarely come out here. Do you think it's just to deceive people?"
"Too."
"Lao Huo, do you have any wine here?"
"Yes, yes, but you don't mind being too soft?"
"The fine wines in this world are just like the beauties in this world, each has its own merits!"
"Let's go, I will take you there!"
"I won't stop until I get drunk today!"
At that time, Huo Lun was drunk by Johnson.
He was fast asleep, but Zhuang Xin drifted away.
Jiang Hong tried to persuade him to stay, but Zhuang Xin said it was difficult to get out and he would have to travel around Yizhou.
When Huolun woke up, Jiang Hong was waiting.
"Get some water."
Huo Lun had a splitting headache. He still felt uncomfortable after drinking several cups of tea, and even wanted to eat sweets. Jiang Hong sent people to search for them, and finally found caramels. Huo Lun ate several large pieces, and his stomach acid burst out from the food, so he gave up.
He wiped his hands with a cloth and coughed dryly, "If you eat too much sugar, you will have a lot of phlegm."
Isn't this nonsense?
Jiang Hong wanted to know the result of his conversation with Zhuang Xin, but it was hard to push him.
"You are much richer, but your bones are soft." Huo Lun took a sip of tea from the water cup and said faintly: "The emperor of Chang'an means that the minimum requirement is that we and others are not allowed to interfere in this fight between brothers."
"What do you think, Master?" Jiang Hong felt that this matter was a bit confusing.
"Sichuan is closed and difficult to enter and exit, so the people in Shu are stubborn and conservative. Many people in Shu feel that the one in Tongcheng is the emperor, and the one in Chang'an is the traitor."
Huo Lun's throat surged, and he regretted eating too much candy. "But now the general trend of the world is gradually becoming clear, and the unification of Chang'an is unstoppable..."
"Sichuan is easy to defend but difficult to attack." Jiang Hong said, "If you stick to it wholeheartedly, it will be unbreakable." "It is precisely because of this that I hesitate again and again." Huo Lun raised his head, "If the man in Tongcheng sticks to it, it will be at least ten years, or even...
I will be safe and sound within twenty years."
"Tsk! Then it's really hard for us to express our position.
!」
"Disaster!"
"What about that?"
"wait!"
"Wait for the Chang'an army to dispatch and see how the first battle goes."
Many foreign places in Shu welcomed guests from Chang'an one after another.
After many attempts at blending, some foreign forces agreed to defect to Chang'an, while some declined. But no force dared to betray the foreigner.
Everyone is waiting and watching.
Waiting for the news of Chang'an's army dispatching.
What came immediately was not the news of Chang'an's army being dispatched, but the news that the emperor was launching reforms in Guanzhong.
"God!" Jiang Hong was dumbfounded, "Does this person actually want to be the enemy of the people of the world?" In the eyes of the people of the world, the powerful and powerful people are the people of the world.
You have to ask, what about ordinary people?
Sorry, in the eyes of these people, ordinary people are not human beings.
Huo Lun sighed: "This person is really drastic! I just don't know what the consequences will be." The news has already reached Li Mi.
"He's crazy!"
Yang Songcheng personally sent the news, and the father-in-law, who had always been unfathomable in the city, used foul language for the first time.
"That little ***, how dare he touch the foundation of my family!"
In the past, Yang Songcheng could ignore Li Xuan's trampling on the Yang family, but this time he directly dug up half of the Yang family's foundation.
The old dog is angry!
Li Bi glanced at Yang Songcheng calmly and said, "Isn't he afraid of rebound?"
"That man acted boldly. Your Majesty, please send someone immediately to contact the great clans in Guanzhong... and promise them huge profits to encourage them to take action!"
Yang Songcheng's eyes became stern, "We must make that little *** pay the price."
The emperor naturally follows what is good.
Chunyu Shan then came to see him, almost bursting into tears, and asked Li Mi to send troops to Guanzhong immediately to relieve the people.
These so-called gods looked calm and calm in the past, because their fundamental interests were not touched.
At this moment, they were beaten painfully by the emperor, and they were in a state of ugliness!
Han Shitou looked at Chunyushan coldly, but felt a little worried in his heart.
He knew very well how powerful those wealthy families were, and felt that the young master was too eager.
Take your time!
Han Shitou walked in the newly built palace, followed by Sun Laoer.
"My little master's move seems a bit impatient!" Sun Laoer said.
"The little master in Guanzhong can't send troops to Shu unless he can stabilize Guanzhong. What scares the little master the most is the population in the hands of the big families. If those people are taken away, those people will become tigers with most of their teeth missing."
Han Shitou naturally knew the deep meaning of the young master's move, "But this is taking a risk!"
Li Mi was in a good mood because of this, and got extremely drunk. After getting drunk, he shouted: "Li Silang, you are asking for death!"
Filial piety to the emperor has four sons.
Li Xuan ranked fourth.
Not long after, a spy from the Mirror Station sent news.
"Guanzhong Rebellion!"
"good!"
Li Mi's face glowed red, and he became more and more diligent in training his army.
