Chapter 231 Planning
"What's up?"
Zhao Xu asked while copying the teaching materials based on the knowledge in his mind. ReadМ
"Xiaguan received letters from Xue Pan, the governor of Ping County, and the governor of Liao County. They said they were willing to ask the wealthy families in this county to hand over their property." Liu Fu said.
"Oh? It's unprecedented. It's just that the dog suddenly stopped eating shit. It's really abnormal." Zhao Xu said casually.
"Xiaoguan also thinks it's abnormal." Liu Fu frowned, "It's just that I can't figure out what their intention is."
After a pause, he continued: "So, I want to go to Ping County and Liao County. If they sincerely hand over their land, I will take over their land. If they have other plans, I can also investigate."
Zhao Xu said seriously: "But it's better to be careful. Xue Pan and Zhu Rong once went to Fan Yang to visit Yuan Li."
Yanwei is now becoming more and more sophisticated in spying on intelligence, and has more and more people.
He is asking Tsui Hark to build an intelligence network covering Yanzhou.
Yanwei people must be stationed in the county seat and the administrative offices of each county.
For example, Fan Yang is the focus of supervision.
Yanweiju will record the people who come in and out of Yuan Mansion every day and send them to Yancheng.
"There's still this matter!" Liu Fu's brows suddenly wrinkled.
Nodding, Zhao Xu said: "So, I suspect that Yuan Li planned this again, but like you, I don't know what trick they set."
With a cold snort, Liu Fu said: "In this case, I want to break into this tiger's den even more. After all, they have been trying hard, and the royal government's decree will never be passed through the two counties."
Zhao Xu had the same idea as Liu Fu.
He urgently needed to bring Ping County and Liao County under the jurisdiction of the palace.
In this way, the government orders of the four counties will be unified, and the construction of the feudal land will be smooth.
If they continue to be consumed, Pingjun and Liaojun will only become a burden to the palace.
Therefore, he is not afraid that the wealthy families in Pingjun and Liaojun will make any move, but he is afraid that they will not make any move.
Since Xue Pan and Zhu Rong now have their fox tails exposed, they might as well play with them.
Let's see what tricks they will pull this time.
"It's better to be careful and bring more soldiers just in case." Zhao Xu warned.
Liu Fu and Chang Wei are his right-hand men, and he does not want them to be in danger.
"Yes, Your Highness." Liu Fu said yes, turned and left.
…
Pingjun, Pingcheng.
Xue Mansion.
A banquet is being held here.
At this moment, Xue Pan is sitting in the main seat, and other wealthy families in Pingjun are sitting in the lower seats.
After drinking for three rounds, everyone was enjoying the dance performed by the Xue family's singer.
At this time, a wealthy official took out a stack of paper from his arms and handed it to Xue Pan: "Sir, my family's land deeds are all here."
When other officials saw it, they took out the land deeds and handed them to Xue Pan.
Xue Pan had no expression on his face and accepted the land deed.
Soon, there was a thick stack of land deeds in front of him.
When all the officials handed over the land deeds, he picked up the wine in front of him and drank it all in one gulp. "Thank you all. In fact, you must also understand that these fields will not be yours after all. King Yan will definitely take away your fields. Yan The county is like this, Shanggu County is like this, now it’s Ping County’s turn, and the next one is Liao County.”
When the officials heard this, they sighed.
During this period, Liu Fu ordered an inventory of Pingjun's land, and many of his children were imprisoned.
The entire officialdom of Ping County was full of complaints.
But they couldn't run away, and they thought they couldn't defeat King Yan's soldiers and horses, so they could only lament.
But Xue Pan went to Fan Yang and brought a message from Yuan Li, and they felt that they immediately had a backbone.
"Sir, we have also handed over the land deed, but at least let us know how to deal with King Yan." A wealthy official asked.
Other wealthy officials looked at Xue Pan at the same time, with expectations in their eyes.
"You don't need to ask about this, just do as I say, lest the walls have ears and you all end up like the wealthy people in Gu County." Xue Pan looked serious.
This time Yuan Li's plan, he and Zhu Rong both believed it would be successful.
That's why they decided to take this chance.
After all, as Yuan Li said, King Yan would not allow wealthy families to live the comfortable life they had in his territory.
Only when King Yan dies will Yanzhou return to the hands of the Yuan family.
Will their life be peaceful?
…
Jinling City.
A drunken Beidi official rudely knocked a young man pushing a wheelbarrow to the ground.
Seemingly dissatisfied, he raised his riding crop and whipped him hard, shouting: "You blind bitch..."
The people passing by in Jinling were as silent as a cicada, not daring to stay for a while, and fled quickly one by one.
For them, the joy of Yanzhou's retreat from the enemy during this period was gradually replaced by the bad feeling brought by the Beidi envoys.
Since these envoys came to Jinling City, they still have no intention of leaving.
They were eating, drinking and having fun in Jinling, being domineering and beating the people and officials wantonly.
There are even rumors that a good girl committed suicide by jumping into the river after being bullied by them.
It's just that the government turned a blind eye to the various behaviors of the Beidi envoys.
The ambitious people among the people couldn't see it. They beat up a Beidi man, but he was arrested by the government and put in prison. They were extremely flattering.
This made the people of Jinling even more angry and dare not speak out. They could only laugh at themselves: Beidi people are human beings, and Dasong people are not human beings.
"Well done, this blind thing should be beaten." When the Beidi envoy was acting aggressively, a young man in blue brocade uniform suddenly clapped his hands and applauded.
Tiemuta was originally just riding on his horse to watch the show, but now he turned his attention to Young Master Qing Yi.
This time he did not choose to return to the grassland immediately for his own reasons.
That day in the court, the Emperor of Dasong and the officials of the powerful families clashed.
He remembered the officials who advocated peace and the officials who advocated war deeply in his heart.
When he returned to the posthouse, he bribed the officials of the Honglu Temple who were responsible for entertaining them with gold and silver.
Through this official, he learned that these officials were all from the powerful families of Dasong.
At the same time, he also learned that the relationship between the powerful families and the royal family in Dasong was not very harmonious.
They hated the rising King of Yan very much.
It was just because they needed King Yan to guard the northern border of Yanzhou, so they did not kill him.
Even so, they also intended to let the Yuan family go lightly and leave the Yuan family in Yanzhou to check and balance King Yan.
After learning this, he suddenly felt it necessary to contact these powerful families of Dasong.
They were the advocates of peace in the court of Dasong, and at the same time they hated King Yan. Maybe one day they would need each other.
Therefore, during the days he stayed there, he implicitly expressed goodwill to the officials of the powerful families through the bribed officials of the Honglu Temple.
However, he did not get the expected effect.
These powerful officials seemed to deliberately avoid contact with him.
Unwilling to give up, he spread the news that he would return to the grassland in three days.
Today, there was only one day left before he returned to the grassland, and someone finally couldn't help it.
Although the young man in front of him was not an official of Dasong.
But he was Han Xin, the eldest son of the Han family, one of the eight powerful families of Dasong.
After calling him hello, Han Xin did not talk to Temuta, but turned around and left.
However, when the servant behind him passed by a Beidi official, he quickly stuffed a paper ball in his hand, and even Temuta didn't notice it.
Until the Beidi official whispered a few words to him, he smiled.
