Wishing You Eternal Happiness Chapter 867: ：0里的 embankment

Huang Wenwen looked sad and gave a bitter smile: "No matter how hard it is, they will die. Cooperating with Marquis Weining can still have a chance of survival, so they made a desperate move and struck first to gain advantage. They simply charged King Zhou Li with treason..."

At that time, the power of the Weining Hou Mansion was dominated by the ruling and opposition parties, and Lu Huang's imperial concubine was always favored, and she was unparalleled in the limelight.

Yu Youyao sighed softly: "The common people have been oppressed by the gentry for generations, and they have deep resentment against the gentry. The death of King Zhou Li planted the root of hostility towards the gentry in the hearts of the people. Later, King Zhou Li was vindicated. The evil deeds of the gentry were exposed to the world, and this hostility was gradually replaced by hatred. It was just that due to the power of the gentry, no one dared to resist."

In that battle that year, it was not only King Zhou Li who died.

There are thousands of soldiers who eventually died at the hands of the Di people due to lack of supplies and supplies. They are the patron saints of the north, and they are also the husbands, fathers, and sons of thousands of ordinary people. There are relatives.

As long as we grasp this and use it a little bit, it will be easy to arouse the hatred of the common people against the gentry.

The ants kill the elephant.

This is like when Yang claimed she was ill and handed over the housekeeper's key. Her grandmother asked her to help the housekeeper, but she discovered that there was a problem with the purchase of the large kitchen.

The three of them, Yang Shuwan, Yang Mama, and Zhou Guanshi, have formed a stable and secretive chain of interests. They can move the whole body together, and it is not easy to move anyone.

Even if we move, it won't solve the fundamental problem.

So, Yu You has taken advantage of other people in Xiaozhuang Zhou, and the embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in an ant nest. Don't underestimate any of them.

The key to dealing with the gentry lies in the word "gentry".

She can't touch the gentry, so she can't control those wealthy gentry?

As long as you get a handle on them, you can follow the clues and implicate the nobles.

Although it is not enough to uproot the gentry, her purpose is not to completely eradicate the gentry. After all, the gentry is the cornerstone of the development of the Northern Territory. If they are exterminated, the Northern Territory will inevitably fall into civil strife, which is not good for Yin Huaixi. , significantly weakening the power of the noble clan is her fundamental purpose.

……

There are two main sources of medicinal materials in the northern border.

One is headed by the Bai family in Xiangping City, the authentic medicinal material producing area of ​​Guandong, which is the three provinces of Liaodong.

The other place is headed by the Shaanxi Qin family, the northwest authentic medicinal materials production area, from the vast area west of Xi'an, including Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia, and Qinghai, producing authentic medicinal materials.

Even though there are unique authentic medicinal materials, there is still a shortage of medicinal materials in the north.

Authentic medicinal materials are given priority over the procurement of military supplies.

The court was suspicious of the origin of the vassal king, and the local gentry protected him. Whenever there was a conflict between the vassal king and the gentry, the first person the court was suspicious of was the vassal king.

This is also the source of the gentry's confidence.

Youjun is in a weak position and must be controlled by others.

King Zhou Li is a lesson learned from the past.

Master Bai was sitting in the front hall, listening to the boy report the situation outside: "... He was praising the Xie Mansion for its righteousness, but I don't know who was fishing in troubled waters, inciting him to speak out and denounce it, saying that the gentry was tyrannical and overbearing, and that they were preying on the common people. ..." This is still a nicer way of saying it. In fact, it involves scolding and everything: "I even said, said..."

The boy who was originally eloquent suddenly started shaking like chaff, his mouth was trembling, he couldn't squeeze out a single word from his throat, and his face turned pale for a moment.

A bad premonition suddenly appeared in Mr. Bai's heart.

But Mrs. Bai was furious and said angrily: "No matter what people outside said, please explain everything to me clearly."

The boy shook his calf and knelt on the ground with a plop. He trembled in a trembling voice: "Tell me, if the wealthy gentry had even the slightest bit of benevolence and righteousness in the Xie family, how could every family in the north be pure? Everyone raised white flags, orphans and widowed mothers lived a hard life, so that the father cried for his son, the wife lost her husband, the son lost his father, even King Zhou Li was... killed..."

"This is unreasonable," Mrs. Bai's complexion changed, and she suddenly became furious. With a bang, she slapped her palm on the table: "It's just nonsense, a bunch of nonsense."

When the emperor was angry, the situation of corpses lying thousands of miles away in the north is still vivid in my mind.

And these words were truly extremely sinister, directly pushing all the wealthy gentry in the north to the forefront.

Mr. Bai's eyes narrowed, and he soon discovered that the boy had always been talking about gentry, not "gentry", which was hard not to make people think deeply.

Worried that the rumors were getting worse, Mrs. Bai quickly said: "Send someone to keep an eye on the outside. If anyone dares to spread rumors and slander our Bai family, we will arrest them directly and send them to the county government..."

Although the prefectural government office is located in Xiangping City, all matters in Xiangping City are under the jurisdiction of the county government office.

"Shut up!" Mr. Bai glanced at Mrs. Bai warningly, interrupted her coldly, turned to the boy and said: "Get off first!"

As if he had been granted amnesty, the young man climbed up from the ground and ran away as if his soles were oiled.

Mrs. Bai frowned: "Master, why are you..."

Master Bai said angrily: "Back then, the case of King Zhou Li was full of blood, and no one dares to talk about King Zhou Li's death. Why are those people outside so blatant? Who gave them the courage? Who gave them the courage? You want to take them to the Yamen? Isn't it true that there are three hundred taels of silver here, which unfoundedly confirms the rumors about the death of King Zhou Li?"

Mrs. Bai's breath tightened: "Master, you mean that the rumors outside are all premeditated? Could it be that it was done by the Xie family?

The rumors only appeared after the Xie Mansion donated military supplies and medicinal materials.

It's hard not to think of Xie Fu.

Master Bai nodded with difficulty: "It should be said that all this was ordered by Princess Shaoyi and supported by King Wu Mu, otherwise the rumors would not have reached this point in just half a day."

The Xie Mansion donated military supplies and medicinal materials~IndoMTL.com~The target is pointed at the wealthy gentry.

It is not difficult to think of the soldiers who died tragically on the battlefield due to lack of supplies during Beidi's massive invasion, as well as the cause of King Zhou Li's death.

Mrs. Bai's head was dizzy: "We can't arrest people, but we can allow these rumors to get worse and worse. Others still think that we are guilty of committing crimes, and we hide and dare not show up." She suddenly widened her eyes: "How can our family now?" Isn’t it difficult to ride a tiger?”

Mr. Bai closed his eyes, and his face became gloomy: "This is the cleverness of Princess Shaoyi. This incident was all caused by her concern for the victims of the epidemic. She took advantage of the Xie Mansion's righteousness to attack the northern border. The gentry, big and small, were put on the fire. King Zhou Li and King Wu Mu, their father and son, had extremely high prestige in the north, and the people had particularly deep grudges against the gentry, which could easily arouse public anger..."

Once large-scale public outrage arouses, the government will have to intervene.

No matter how well they manage their affairs in the yamen, they only make things easier within their power. It is impossible for the government to offend Princess Shaoyi or even the Yu clan behind her for the sake of mere merchants.
