Of course, Xiao Yu knew this matter well, and also knew that his future position of authority and the Xiao family's prosperity and wealth depended on it. Moreover, now that Li Sheng has accepted Xiao Shengyu to fill the house, there is actually nothing to say about the matter. The problem is
Inside the Xiao family.
People's views on going to a strange land to colonize are very different under different conditions at different times.
For example, when Britain was rising, sailing to colonize overseas was the most respected action and was also regarded as the most promising business. Of course... the colonized people might have other opinions.
As for China, guarding the border is sometimes very honorable, as was the case in the Qin and Han dynasties.
Soldiers guarding the border had to endure a long life of poverty and mental loneliness. However, in the Qin Dynasty and Han Dynasty, especially the latter's investment in guarding the border was very adequate. To what extent was it specific?
After the Xiongnu were overthrown by Wei and Huo, the imperial court of the Han Dynasty still provided sufficient poverty alleviation transfer payments. Not only did the people living in the border areas receive sufficient human and material support, but also the poor people of the Xiongnu tribe
So much so that after the Wei and Jin Dynasties fled to the Han Dynasty, the Huns Liu Yuan still raised the banner of the Han Dynasty when he launched an army to attack!
The great ancestor Liu Bang would not be happy when he saw such a thing, but this is not the point.
The point is that in other dynasties, border guarding was synonymous with hardship and no future. For example, in the Song Dynasty, the scholar-bureaucrats hated warriors and at the same time were afraid of border guarding. The actual occupation of the border was accomplished by the exile of criminals.
Now is the Tang Dynasty, there is no such thing as the Song Dynasty.
Guarding the border is not something that people cannot accept, but for the Xiao family, things are not that simple.
These children usually have no worries about food and clothing, and their main occupation is reading books from sages. Ordinary people are not afraid of any hardship, but what about them...
Xiao Yu still had to find a way to solve this problem.
If it is solved well, everything will go according to plan in the future. If it is not solved well and a Xiaoqiang disaster occurs, who knows what will happen...
Maybe it would be exciting to run directly in front of Wang Jing and others and do a wave of high density.
Realizing this possibility, Xiao Yu was naturally extremely vigilant. He took a deep breath and became determined not to let ordinary members of his family know about this matter.
This letter must also be hidden perfectly!
And it takes a lot of effort to reach a consensus at home...
Xiao Yu felt bored after thinking about it, and she had no expectations at all about how profitable Li Sheng's business would be.
But after all, it is something that has to be done. The contract has been reached, and I am still uneasy, so I can only bite the bullet and carry on.
…
This secret transaction was naturally well hidden.
After all, Xiao Yu was a minister in the court, and his reputation may not be as high as that of a great scholar like Pei Ji. Even in terms of poetry and poetry, he was far inferior to people like Pei Ji and Wang Fuchou, but Xiao Yu's ability to do things was still much better.
Since I had thought that this was a confidential matter, I naturally hid it well and didn't give it a chance at all.
But that being said, slowly...
As time passed, Xiao Yu's arrangement took effect.
Since the Xiao family is a famous family, the first major feature is naturally its prosperous population.
In addition to Xiao Yu himself, who holds a high-level position in the family, of course there are also many children who are also serving as officials...
After all, the educational resources of aristocratic families were the most abundant during this period, and even many scholars from poor families came from aristocratic families.
certainly……
Like other wealthy and powerful families with five surnames and seven hopes, the official ranks of the children in the family are not high.
But it doesn't matter, this is not the point, Xiao Yu just needs someone to perform.
In fact, this person cannot be of the Xiao family, otherwise it would be suspicious, but the rest is simple, because there are many circles in the group of scholars.
Just find a way to find a suitable candidate through your own circle of disciples, and then start working in the court.
This whole job is naturally not an ordinary job. Although it is also criticized and criticized, it is commonplace for the people of the aristocratic family - in fact, their abilities are certainly not comparable to those who rose up in the military in troubled times and survived countless
For a master in a critical situation, criticism can be said to be a life-saving skill.
So……
Of course it is not a strange thing for someone to criticize Xiao Yu in the court. It is common for everyone. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Xiao family can just use it to transform. However, because the criticism often happens randomly...or basically at random.
, so it is hard to guess whether this matter will be brought up in the recent political disputes in the court, and the Xiao family will be exiled... This matter is of great importance, and without mentioning the name, it is really difficult to handle without a few awesome young people.
But it was actually easy to handle. Xiao Yu used some contacts and easily found a few young men who had just stood out from the imperial examination and entered the court.
These guys don't know much and are very good at reading. But after all, they are young and easy to get into trouble. With a little guidance, it is easy to cause a wave of emotions in these private circles.
If you fool around well, someone will come out to make things right, and then things will naturally fall into place...
In fact, this was also the case. Within a few days, Xiao Yu was attacked in the court.
It is said that Xiao Yu took advantage of his position to make huge profits for his family and annexed tens of thousands of hectares of fertile land in the countryside, which can be said to be a disaster for one party.
Xiao Yu naturally pretended to argue hard, but what surprised him was that these young people who had passed the imperial examination were so articulate when talking about others, that he was almost unable to resist, and in just a few words
All kinds of crimes have come out.
but……
Since this matter was colluded with Li Sheng, then the news was naturally passed on to Li Er... Of course Li Er got some news, and as for more details, Li Er was very understanding.
He didn't ask much, since it wasn't a big deal to him anyway.
If the energy of the aristocratic families wants to take advantage of Li Er's little tricks, they have to unite to be effective, otherwise... the petty quarrels are not something that Jun's father should take care of.
So this incident happened quickly and naturally. Li Shifeng knew it and put on a bad face throughout the morning. In the end, he allowed Xiao Yu to "quibble" and was punished in the end.
In the past, it was normal to argue in the court, but the newly promoted grassroots officials who came from the imperial examination did not dare to speak. This time they came to criticize Xiao Yu due to various secret arrangements. Because of the participation of young people, the atmosphere became very funny.
then……
He was fined for three years and his family moved south!
