All Hail Cousin Brother

Five Hundred and Thirty Eighth Chapter: The Country Will Be in Chaos

The king of Dongning was also arrogant, and Heng Dao immediately sat down in the yamen court: "What do you want to explain? I have extracted the national law and posted it in the streets and alleys. Is your clan illiterate or blind?" , King Dongning turned his head to look at the government official: "What is the crime of raising private soldiers without permission?"

The magistrate hurriedly said: "The light ones will be fined with silver, and the serious ones will be punished as the crime of deceiving the emperor."

The crime of deceiving the emperor can be big or small, and should not be ignored.

The two sides insisted on their own opinions, arguing endlessly in the yamen.

The final result is that after the Li Qiguang rebellion, the clan was beaten to pieces by King Wu Mu. Although the remaining forces should not be underestimated, but the war had just subsided, the clan was also seriously injured, and it was hard to fight again. He took a step back, paid a huge amount of fine money, and promised to restrain these "nursing homes" at home.

This sum of money was filled into the national treasury by Dongning Wang Yiyin.

The emperor was very satisfied with this, and specially rewarded King Dongning.

At the same time, the emperor also knew that King Dongning was able to control the clan because Yin Huaixi cleaned up the clan and rewarded Yin Huaixi with a lot of things.

Of course, this is just the beginning.

If the clan takes the first step back, there will be a second step.

The number of private soldiers raised by the clan is not small, most of them are recruited by the people, good and bad are mixed, and they are not easy to control, so it is very easy for King Dongning to swindle.

Not long after, King Dongning killed the private soldiers supported by the clan again, on the charge that these private soldiers oppressed the people and deserved to be killed for collecting "protection money" from the people.

This time, it was King Dongning who took the initiative to sue the clan to the government office.

This time, the clan wanted to calm down and say that it was not so easy. The king of Dongning sent people to investigate these private soldiers. They had been accused of committing crimes in Shandong over the years and asked the clan to disband the private soldiers.

Of course the clan would not be willing!

The king of Dongning was not easy to provoke, so he posted the crimes committed by these criminal private soldiers on the streets and alleys on the same day, and then sent troops to arrest them one by one.

Those who are light will be sent to the prison of the government office.

Those who were serious were dragged to Caishikou and executed one by one on the spot. Those who dared to resist were punished as Li Qiguang's party members.

In just one day, thousands of people were arrested and thousands of people were killed.

After killing people, King Dongning will also punish the clan for lax control, allowing them to commit crimes, and covering up crimes.

The conflict between King Dongning and the clan intensified step by step.

Last autumn, King Dongning led five hundred elite soldiers and broke into the Leng Mansion in Jinan. He collected various family classics such as the ancestral law codes, scriptures and history of the Leng Mansion, and burned them all.

This move completely annoyed the clan.

But the remnants of the clan, after two years of rectification and consumption by King Dongning, have made things worse. How could it be the opponent of King Dongning and officials of all sizes in Shandong?

The king of Dongning used the words of the clan that "the clan is lawless, deceives the king and ignores the rules, and there are chaos and rules", and wantonly burned the legal codes, classics and other classics passed down from generation to generation by the clan.

The clan is finally honest.

But King Dongning's behavior was met with backlash.

Many literati and students jointly wrote to the imperial court, pointing out: "Gao Zu's righteousness, the restoration of the ancient books, the merit will last for thousands of years, and benefit the future generations. The king of Dongning destroying the ancient books is an immoral and unvirtuous act. This trend cannot be raised. , the imperial court should ask the crime."

The emperor couldn't stop the people from all over the world, so he punished King Dongning with three years' salary.

The emperor was satisfied, and ordered Dongning King to continue to help the government to rectify Shandong.

In addition, the situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the past two years has become worse and worse.

two years ago,

I didn't see the sun for a few days all winter, and the snow fell from Laba to the eighth day of the lunar new year. Not long after the Spring Festival, another wave of cold snapped.

After half a month of rain and snow, the cold spring lasted until Qingming Festival.

The early rice seedlings in the south are rotten, and the peanuts and cotton in the north have dead seedlings and slow growth.

"Nine spring droughts in ten years" last year, another spring drought appeared.

"Spring rain is as expensive as oil." In March, the soil thawed and the winter wheat seedlings turned green, but there was no rainfall. Many wheat seedlings died of drought, and the harvest was less than half of previous years.

The common people had a premonition that the year was not good, so they began to hoard grain.

Rice prices started to rise.

Even though the Ministry of Household Affairs issued a notice to the rice merchants to strictly control the price of rice, the price of rice is still on the rise, and this situation has lasted for more than a year.

Yu Youyao couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "When a country is about to be in chaos, the chaos begins with the heavens, and the chaos begins with the people."

The Great Zhou Dynasty had a lot of evils. In the early years, the weather was good and the weather was good. The people could get by and maintain a peaceful scene. But today, there are frequent disasters and man-made disasters, but it is frozen three feet, and the sediment is rising.

Yu Youyao didn't want to see this scene, but there was nothing she could do.

She can only do her best to run the Taoxintang, help more children, women and children, and devote more energy to the cultivation of sweet potatoes, because sweet potatoes are foreign things, and now the name of sweet potatoes is changed to sweet potatoes.

Yu Youyao sighed lightly, and didn't think about these bad things anymore.

At this time, Xia Tao led Mother Yue in.

Yu Youyao was overjoyed, and said hastily: "Mommy, come and sit down."

Mother Yue saw that she was already twelve years old, and in a month or two, she would be thirteen years old. She had a long body, she looked slim and straight, the length was well trimmed, her body was slim, and her face had grown a lot. , is also a budding, Fang Fei pretty appearance.

Then I thought about the last entrustment of the eldest lady back then, and couldn't help but wet my eyes: "In the blink of an eye, the young lady has grown up, if the eldest lady is still alive..."

Speaking of this, she knew that she had made a slip of the tongue, so she didn't go on, but she couldn't stop feeling sad in her heart.

Yu Youyao hastily handed over the handkerchief: "My mother is also happy to have knowledge under the spring."

Mother Yue took the veil handed over by the young lady, wiped away her tears, and said with a look of relief, "Young lady is right, as long as young lady lives well, madam is happier than anything else."

Probably like a mother, there must be a daughter.

Although the eldest lady has a different temperament from the eldest lady, she is also shrewd and generous in her dealings with others. She is a generous and considerate person, her vision and heart are not narrow, she can handle everything properly, and she shows her virtue everywhere.

Shrewdness does not mean good at calculating.

Know the world, but not the world, be good at human feelings, but not indulge in calculations, be clear about the heart, but not follow the trend, treat people with their own ups and downs, not just follow the vulgar.

Yue Yumo couldn't help being in a trance: "The old lady raised the young lady very well..."

For such a big girl's family, either they are already engaged, or they are already seeing each other.

But in the past few years, the government and the public have been unstable. Mrs. Yu is a cautious person, and she has been watching in secret. She probably won't make an engagement too early.

fair enough.

Men are afraid of entering the wrong line of work, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man.

Their young lady is a very famous and virtuous girl. Who in Beijing mentioned Miss Yu from the family of the left servant of the official department, and who didn't give a thumbs up to praise?

It is better to be late than to marry by mistake.
