Zhao Xiaole said nothing and motioned for him to continue speaking.
Xie Junhao is a straightforward person and said: "Some gentry who had their land taken away were not convinced."
"Most of them know some officials and literati, and want to get their wealth back through some connections. But land reform is a national policy, and who wants to be the leader?"
"Those gentry simply found some people in the world, sold the land deeds and contracts in their hands to them at low prices, and entrusted them to come to Chuzhou to ask for money, or coerce the people to sign debt deeds."
"If you don't agree, there will be many people who kill people and steal goods, and many people will be persecuted."
Zhao Xiaole's voice turned slightly cold, "How did you deal with it?"
The sky is really high and the emperor is far away.
There is no more royal power.
Zhao Xiaole has always hated those who bully the weak.
Marquis Heng stopped Xie Junhao and explained: "Many of the people don't know how to read at all, and many gentry sold their farm tools and livestock to the people before leaving. There is inevitably fraud in this."
"Although it is unfair, according to national law, there is nothing against it. I can only say that many people have been deceived."
"The war was tense at that time, and I was worried that the Jianghu people would cause unrest, so I acquiesced to some contractual agreements. The prices were too high, and after negotiation, the prices were lowered. As for those who kill people and steal goods, they will naturally be severely punished!"
After Henghou finished speaking, Xie Junhao also nodded, testifying for Henghou that what he said was good.
In fact, when it comes to this matter, although the common people are quite aggrieved, who makes you illiterate?
There is nothing you can do about being cheated by others.
It can be regarded as a lesson and a lesson learned.
But this also led to a large influx of people from all walks of life to Chuzhou, and fights among them were naturally inevitable.
Zhao Xiaole drank a glass of wine silently and said nothing.
Marquis Heng is a straight man, and Xie Junhao is also a straight man. Whatever the national law says is right, you will just follow it.
What about your own brain?
Afterwards, Zhao Xiaole sighed. At present, it seems that it was his own mistake in hiring people. He should have added a think tank to them.
Zhao Xiaole took out a piece of paper and handed it to Hou Heng and said, "Help me find out where this person is. Don't disturb her. I will go see her in person."
When Marquis Heng took it over and took a look, his face suddenly became strange, "Ruyue? Isn't this the top card of Honghualou?"
Hearing this, Zhao Xiaole almost spit out the half-sip of wine he had just taken.
What kind of plane?
Are all intelligence agents today so blatant?
But thinking about it, the people who come in and out of brothels have always had complex identities, and people from all walks of life will gather here.
Treating this place as an information center is both a good cover and a convenience for work!
Zhao Xiaole looked at Henghou and Xie Junhao and found that both of them looked strange, as if they were confused.
You, a eunuch, didn't think about how to fight when you came to Chuzhou, so why did you only think about going to a brothel to find girls?
What's wrong?
Henghou was even more worried. He was still considering whether he should help Zhao Xiaole cover it up?
If Prince Qin Sining finds out, will the two of them be very angry?
Just when he was about to give a serious persuasion, Zhao Xiaole spoke first, "Okay, I already know."
"This matter is confidential and should not be leaked to the outside world."
However, it seems that no matter how I say it, it feels wrong.
It's more like he just made an excuse for himself to go to a brothel.
Marquis Heng coughed and said, "My lord, you have a distinguished status and must not go to places like that. Moreover, there are often many people from all walks of life gathered there. If anything happens, you should let your subordinates do it for you..."
Zhao Xiaole knew that he was thinking wrongly, and quickly changed the subject again, "This time I brought two thousand Imperial Guards."
"Look at the time, they should arrive in Chuzhou around tomorrow. However, my intention is not to rush to send troops yet. What suggestions do you have?"
As expected, Marquis Heng's train of thought was pulled back. After hearing what he said, Marquis Heng was not very happy.
"Yan Guoyan implemented land reform outside Chuzhou City. As time goes by, the people will definitely turn to them."
"Besides, guarding the border and defending the country is the duty of a soldier. If the prince still has concerns, it is better to let me lead the troops to fight alone. I am willing to issue a military order. If I am defeated, I will not come back alive."
Now that Zhao Xiaole has arrived, Marquis Heng can take off the heavy burden on his shoulders and go out of the city to fight to his heart's content.
Zhao Xiaole still shook his head. Marquis Heng was a sharp knife in fighting, but after all, he was lacking in strategy.
He explained: "The situation in King Pingxi's land is more complicated than we expected. I need time to find out clearly. Before I find out, I will not allow anyone to send troops in advance."
Henghou and others were puzzled.
Zhao Xiaole then informed about Manichaeism, "The reason why King Pingxi rebelled in the first place had a lot to do with the third prince, and Manichaeism was also involved in it. Besides, has the Yan Kingdom really lost its fighting spirit? This matter
It’s hard to say yet.”
"If the State of Yan uses the departure of the Ninth Prince as bait and we rush to send troops, we will inevitably fall into the opponent's scheme."
After that, he talked about Manichaeism in detail.
At first, after the defeat of Manichaeism, a large number of believers fled to the mountains.
After a hundred years of recuperation, how many people do they have now? How many troops do they have on hand? Zhao Xiaole must find out these things first.
If they start a fight between King Ping Xi and the State of Yan, and Manichaeism reaps the benefits, it will be great fun.
Judging from the current situation, King Pingxi and the Yan people have colluded. If they join forces with the Manichaeans and the defenders of Chuzhou are to fight out, what is the difference between it and going to die?
In addition to the Queen's affair, Zhao Xiaole also told Heng Hou and others all the other details.
The two of them were stunned for a moment.
What the hell?
Manichaeism?
Think about it, when Marquis Heng went to watch the battle between the Yan soldiers and the Langtou army, he almost intervened in the fight.
At this moment, he was really shocked and broke into a cold sweat.
They had vaguely heard about Manichaeism before, but they didn't know that those people might have hidden and trained troops in the mountains.
Of course, they would not think that Zhao Xiaole was being alarmist. He was an undefeated God of War who had defeated barbarians and prairie people.
There is no need to fool yourself.
For a time, the postures of Heng Hou and others became much more honest.
The previous dissatisfaction and doubtful attitude disappeared immediately, just like a student who did something wrong or said the wrong thing in front of the teacher.
Marquis Heng said calmly: "Your Majesty, it was the official who spoke impulsively. The official also secretly blamed the prince for not bringing in more troops."
