Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 226
[Chapter 226 Planning]
“What’s the matter?”
Zhao Xu asked while copying the textbooks based on the knowledge in his head.
“The lower officials have received letters from Xue Pan, the prefect of Pingjun, and the prefect of Liaojun, saying that they are willing to make the wealthy families in this county hand over their land.” Liu Fu said.
“Oh? It’s really unprecedented, it’s just that the dog suddenly doesn’t eat shit, it’s really abnormal.” Zhao Xu said casually.
“The lower officials also think it’s abnormal.” Liu Fu frowned, “It’s just that the lower officials can’t figure out what their intentions are for doing this.”
After a pause, he continued: “So, the lower officials want to go to Pingjun and Liaojun Once there, if they sincerely hand over their property, they will take over their property, and if they have other plans, they can also investigate.”
Zhao Xu said solemnly: “But it’s better to be careful, Xue Pan and Zhu Rong once went to Fanyang together I paid a visit to Yuan Li.”
Yan Wei is now more and more proficient in spying on information, and has more and more personnel.
He is asking Tsui Hark to build an intelligence network covering Yanzhou.
People from the Yanwei must be stationed in the county seat and the government offices of the counties.
Places like Fan Yang are the focus of supervision.
The Yanwei Ju will record the people who enter and leave the Yuan Mansion every day and send them to Yancheng.
“And this thing!” Liu Fu frowned suddenly.
Nodding his head, Zhao Xu said: “So, this king suspects that Yuan Li planned this again, but just like you, this king doesn’t know what scheme they set up.”
With a cold snort, Liu Fu said: “In this case, the next official is more To break into this tiger’s den, after all, they have been playing softly, and the royal government’s government orders will not be able to pass in the two counties.”
Zhao Xu’s thoughts are the same as Liu Fu’s.
He urgently needs to bring Pingjun and Liaojun under the jurisdiction of the palace.
In this way, the government orders of the four counties are unified, and the construction of Fengtu will be smooth.
If it has been exhausted, Pingjun and Liaojun will only become a burden on the palace.
Therefore, he was not afraid that the powerful families in Pingjun and Liaojun would make moves, but he was afraid that they would not.
Now that Xue Pan and Zhu Rong are showing their fox tails, let’s 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 reminded.
Liu Fu and Chang Wei are his right-hand men, and he doesn’t want them to be in danger.
“Yes, Your Highness.” Liu Fu answered 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 the other powerful families in Pingjun are sitting in the lower seats.
After drinking for three rounds, everyone is enjoying the dance performed by the singer raised by the Xue family.
At this time, an official of the rich family took out a stack of papers from his pocket and handed it to Xue Pan: “My lord, all the land deeds of my family are here.” When
other officials saw this, they took out the land deeds and handed them to Xue Pan.
Xue Pan remained expressionless 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 drank the wine in front of him, “Thank you all, in fact, you must also understand that these lands will not be yours after all, King Yan will definitely take your lands, Yan This is the case in the county, the case in Shanggu County, now it is the turn of Ping County, and the next is Liao County.”
Hearing this, the officials sighed.
During this period, Liu Fu ordered an investigation of the property in Pingjun, and many children in their family were imprisoned.
The entire Pingjun officialdom complained.
It’s just that 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 Yuan Li’s message, and they felt that they had a backbone right away.
“My lord, we have also handed over the title deed, but at least let us know how to deal with King Yan.” A wealthy official asked.
The other wealthy officials looked at Xue Pan at the same time, with anticipation in their eyes.
“You don’t need to ask about this matter, just do as I say, lest the walls have ears and you all end up like the nobles of Shanggu County.” Xue Pan looked serious.
This time Yuan Li’s plan, he and Zhu Rong both believed that it would be successful.
That’s why they made up their minds to fight this one.
After all, as Yuan Li said, the King of Yan would not allow the nobles to live the comfortable life before in his fiefdom.
Only after King Yan died, Yanzhou would return to the Yuan family’s hands.
Their days will be extremely happy.
…
Jinling City.
A drunk Beidi official brutally knocked a young man pushing a wheelbarrow to the ground.
Seemingly puzzled, he raised his horsewhip and lashed hard, cursing: “You bastard with no eyes…” The
passers-by people in Jinling were silent, they didn’t dare to stay for a while, and fled quickly one by one.
For them, the joy of Yanzhou retreating from the enemy during this period was gradually replaced by the resentment brought by Beidi envoys.
Since these envoys came to Jinling City, they have no intention of leaving.
They ate, drank and had fun in Jinling, domineering and wanton beating Dasong people and officials.
There are even rumors that a woman from a good family was bullied by them, so she committed suicide by jumping into the river.
It’s just that the government turned a blind eye to the Beidi envoy’s various actions.
People with high spirits among the people couldn’t see it, and beat a Beidi man, but were arrested by the government and put in prison, showing extreme flattery.
This made the people of Jinling even more daring to be angry and dare not speak out. They could only laugh at themselves bitterly: Beidi people are human beings, but Dasong people are not human beings.
“Good fight, you should fight something that doesn’t have eyes.” When the Beidi envoy was playing tricks, a young man in a blue brocade suit suddenly clapped his hands and applauded.
Originally, Tiemuta was just riding a horse to watch a show, but now he turned his attention to Young Master Tsing Yi.
This time he didn’t choose to go back to the grassland immediately and had his own ideas.
In the court hall that day, Emperor Dasong was in a confrontation with officials of powerful clans.
He kept the Lord and the official and the main battle official in his heart.
Back at the post house, he bribed the officials of Honglu Temple who were in charge of entertaining them with gold and silver.
Through this official, he learned that these officials were all from the Dasong family.
At the same time, he also learned that the current Dasong, the relationship between the powerful family and the royal family is not very harmonious.
They are very disgusted with the rising King Yan.
It was just because the king of Yan needed to guard the northern border of Yanzhou, so they didn’t kill him.
Even so, they deliberately let the Yuan family go lightly, leaving the Yuan family in Yanzhou to check and balance King Yan.
Knowing this, he suddenly felt that it was necessary to get in touch with these powerful clans.
They are the peace faction in the Dasong court, and at the same time they hate King Yan. Maybe one day they will need each other.
Therefore, during these days of his stay, he secretly expressed his goodwill to the powerful officials through the bribed Honglu Temple officials.
But he didn’t get the desired effect.
These powerful officials appear to have deliberately avoided contact with him.
Not reconciled, he released the news and returned to the grassland by himself in three days.
Today, with only one day left before his return to the grassland, someone finally couldn’t help it.
Although the young man in front of him is not a Dasong official.
But he is Han Xin, the eldest son of the Han family, one of the eight powerful families in Dasong.
After shouting hello, Han Xin didn’t talk to Tiemu Tower, but turned and left directly.
However, when the servant following him passed by a Beidi official, he quickly stuffed a ball of paper past him, and he didn’t even notice the iron wooden tower.
Until Beidi officials whispered a few words to him, he smiled.
