"It's too dark to accuse people unjustly like this?!"
Yueyao couldn't help but said.
A wry smile appeared at the corner of Lin Xu's mouth. He couldn't answer such a question.
"What Mr. Lin said is absolutely true!"
Li Jiuyuan's face was very solemn!
"Then we will mobilize more people to resist. If they arrest a leader, another leader will appear! Regardless of the common people, there are thousands of our Xinxue disciples in Jiangsu Province alone! Let us put these fellow disciples
Let's all mobilize and lead the people to resist! I really want to see if the government can put all of us in prison! Hum, I'm afraid even if they fill their prisons, they won't be able to hold all of us!
"
Once Yang Dingyuan's stubborn temper comes up, he will definitely not be afraid of heaven or earth!
"Dingyuan, don't be impulsive!"
Xu Changlin felt that Yang Dingyuan was a bit superior, so he quickly reminded him!
"Don't worry, Mr. Xu, I won't mess around! Before taking action, I will definitely discuss a charter with everyone!"
Yang Dingyuan said.
Xu Changlin nodded. He and Yang Dingyuan were old acquaintances. He knew that although Yang Dingyuan was not afraid of heaven or earth, he was not a reckless person. Otherwise, he would not be the "first lawyer in Jiangnan"!
"If we mobilize all the Xinxue disciples in the province to lead the people to stop this matter, we may be able to achieve certain results. However, what Mr. Lin just said is very reasonable. Even if we prevent the government from taking advantage of the seedlings through this method, as long as they
If no other way to raise raw silk is found, then other means will definitely be used to defeat the common people! In the end, it is the common people who will suffer!"
Li Jiuyuan said worriedly.
"Is there really no way to break the situation?!"
Yang Dingyuan asked reluctantly.
"At present, it seems that there is really no way to break the situation! I know it is very frustrating to say this, but the situation is like this! The determination of the court to implement the policy of changing rice to mulberry is probably beyond our imagination! Even if
We are the ones who organized the common people to resist the officers and soldiers from trampling on the seedlings, but they are unable to use this method and will definitely use other methods! We are unable to guard against it!"
Li Jiuyuan said with a stern expression!
"Why does the imperial court resolutely promote this policy? Is it just for the order of one million pieces of silk?"
Xu Changlin was a little puzzled.
"Yes! You can't ignore the lives and lives of so many people just for the sake of an order for one million pieces of silk!"
Yang Dingyuan was also a little puzzled!
"These one million pieces of silk are the direct cause of this incident! However, if you look deeper, it is actually only a superficial cause! The root cause lies in the extravagant spending in the palace, the corruption of the court, the treasury is empty, and the deficit has been running in successive years.
!As far as I know, the deficit last year alone reached five million taels of silver!"
"However, there are still places that need money everywhere in the imperial court! Especially in Liaodong, the Tatars have been making trouble recently. Two months ago, the Tatar army almost broke through Shanhaiguan! If there is no money,
, there will be no military pay, and without military pay, Liaodong cannot be defended. Once Shanhaiguan is breached, the Tatar army can march straight in and attack the capital, which is a dead end!"
Speaking of this, Li Jiuyuan couldn't help but raise his tone: "And this order for one million pieces of silk is the key to breaking the deadlock! Ordinarily, the imperial court signed such a large order to increase the revenue of the treasury and raise military pay.
It’s also a way, but it can’t be done at the expense of so many people’s lives!”
