Power is a double-edged sword. Power itself is not good or bad. Success or failure depends on the person who uses the power.
If you are a wise emperor, a high concentration of power is actually a good thing. A wise emperor can concentrate his efforts to do great things.
On the contrary, if it is a fatuous emperor, too concentrated power is a bad thing.
But regardless of whether they were wise or foolish, almost all emperors wanted to weaken the power of vassals and powerful families. No emperor had ever thought of weakening the power in his own hands. Instead, they all tried their best to concentrate power in their own hands.
In Jin Feng's eyes, the Ninth Princess was actually a wise emperor.
But Jin Feng cannot guarantee that their descendants will be as wise as the Ninth Princess.
If you encounter an unworthy descendant, power will turn into poison and accelerate the collapse of the dynasty.
Regarding this point, Jin Feng once vaguely mentioned it to the Ninth Princess.
How smart is the Ninth Princess? Although Jin Feng didn't say it clearly at the time, she immediately understood what Jin Feng meant.
In addition, the Ninth Princess was proficient in history books and had a very good view of the overall situation. Therefore, even if she later realized that Jin Feng was deliberately weakening the emperor's power, the Ninth Princess did not express any objection. Instead, she actively cooperated with Jin Feng without involving core interests.
.
For example, this time, although Jin Feng refuted his decision, the Ninth Princess nodded and said: "I will arrange a trial for them."
From the tone of the Ninth Princess's tone, Jin Feng knew that the trial of the Ninth Princess would definitely be conducted according to the highest standards. I am afraid that none of the adult men of the Yuwen family and the Zhou family, as well as the female relatives who tortured and killed their servants, would survive.
.
But as long as there is enough evidence, this kind of blood-sucking insect that lies on the people will die.
At least he saved two families of innocent children and women.
As for whether the future life of the children and women will be miserable, Jin Feng has no control over it.
They may not have done evil, but they have enjoyed the benefits brought by men's evil deeds. The price they should pay is suffering in the rest of their lives.
Most of the people in this era were simple and honest, and paid attention to repaying kindness with drops of water and springs of water.
For example, even if Tang Xiaobei ended up in a brothel, his maid always thought of her. If it weren't for that maid, Tang Dongdong wouldn't know how long it would take to find Tang Xiaobei.
Of course, that maid has now returned to Tang Xiaobei and has become one of Tang Xiaobei's most trusted assistants.
There is also Bei Qianxun. The young lady she followed was kind to her, and she always remembered it. For this reason, she even traveled thousands of miles to Sichuan and Sichuan to hunt down the murderer of the young lady.
If the female members of the Yuwen family and the Zhou family are kinder to their servants when they are in power, someone will take care of them even if they are down.
If they do evil when they are in power and treat their subordinates harshly, it will be their retribution if they cannot survive.
Although Zuo Feifei is not very involved in political affairs, she is very smart.
Realizing that Jin Feng and Ninth Princess had something wrong, he immediately changed the subject and turned to look at Ninth Princess and Guan Xiaorou: "Your Majesty, sister, you asked me to protect Mr. Hao, but in the end I didn't discover the wolfish ambitions of the Yuwen family and the Zhou family. It was me.
I didn’t do my job well, please punish me, your majesty and sister!”
"The Yuwen family and the Zhou family acted very secretly this time, and even I didn't find out."
Jin Feng waved his hand and said: "Besides, your duty is to protect my safety. This matter has nothing to do with you. The responsibility is also the responsibility of Han Feng and the Secret Service."
Zuo Feifei just wanted to change the topic, and did not want to say anything bad about Han Feng and the Secret Intelligence Department. After hearing this, she quickly said: "Didn't the Secret Intelligence Department discover the conspiracy of the Yuwen family and the Zhou family in time? It can be regarded as making up for it."
After saying that, he changed the subject again, looked at Zhuer and asked: "Zhuer, Zhuer, you guys are so secretive and powerful. You've only been here a few days and you found the mastermind behind the scenes. Can you teach me how to do it?"
Zhu'er also understood that Zuo Feifei was trying to help the Secret Service, so she cooperated and said: "This is not because our Secret Service is powerful, but because His Majesty is wise. Realizing that there might be a mastermind behind the scenes, he ignored his own safety and risked his life."
The body of gold was used as bait, and he deliberately boarded the airship in front of many refugees.
As expected, the mastermind behind the scenes did not hold back and sent falcons to assassinate His Majesty, and His Majesty arranged escorts to follow some key suspected targets in advance. Whoever’s house the falcons fly out from is the mastermind behind the scenes!”
"That's it!" Zuo Feifei suddenly realized and saluted the Ninth Princess: "Your Majesty is wise!"
This is not flattery, but genuine admiration.
She has been in the East China Sea for so long, and her subordinates have recruited so many refugees as workers, but she has never found anything unusual.
The Ninth Princess has only been here a few days, and not only did she discover anomalies, but she also successfully uncovered the mastermind behind the scenes.
Zuo Feifei is ashamed of this keenness.
The Ninth Princess was already immune to all kinds of flattery. She smiled at Zuo Feifei as a response, then turned to look at Jin Feng:
"Sir, although the Yuwen family and the Zhou family have been punished, but through their spread, we know that there are already a lot of refugees in the East China Sea, so in the next period of time, the number of refugees coming to the East China Sea will probably continue to rise. We should prepare in advance
Be prepared.”
"What are your plans?" Jin Feng asked.
"I have thought about a lot of countermeasures recently, but after much deliberation, Xiaobei's proposal is the most suitable for the current situation," said Ninth Princess, "I think the mutual aid plan should be launched in advance."
With the intelligence of the Ninth Princess, she had long sensed that Tang Xiaobei was not convinced. Now saying this could be regarded as giving Tang Xiaobei a step forward and a sign of weakness.
The so-called mutual aid plan was the proposal that Tang Xiaobei originally proposed.
The meaning of naming the mutual aid plan is to show that we will work together with the people of the Central Plains and Jiangnan to tide over the difficulties together.
Although Tang Xiaobei was a little dissatisfied with the Ninth Princess, that was all. She sincerely hoped that the Sichuan-Sichuan regime would develop stably and pacify the Central Plains and Jiangnan as soon as possible.
When he realized that the Ninth Princess was actively showing weakness, Tang Xiaobei temporarily put aside his prejudices and said, "But the training for the participants in the mutual aid program is not over yet."
"My husband said that actual combat is the best training. Just pull him over and start taking action, which is better than any training effect!"
Ninth Princess said: "And I don't plan to roll it out across the board. Instead, I plan to use Qindi, Dongyuan County, and Haiting County as pilot projects. If they can handle these places well and learn some experience, they can then start large-scale promotion.
"
"That's pretty much it," Tang Xiaobei nodded slightly when he heard this.
Before the Battle of Xizhou, less than half of the Qin Dynasty had been captured by the bodyguards. The other half was not captured. Many people had heard of the policy of attacking the local tyrants and dividing their land. The mass base was very good, and the people were looking forward to the bodyguards' attack.
Allocate fields to them.
Dongyuan County and Haiting County have a small territory, and now many refugees have gathered in Donghai. I listen to Jinchuan Daily every day and have some understanding of the Sichuan-Sichuan regime.
It should be relatively simple to promote relief programs in these places.
