I've heard all these things. In today's world, power can crush people. Under the deterrence and intimidation of these scholars, the powerless common people can be safe and sound, and those lands have to be handed over to these powerful people in exchange for a small amount of land enclosure fees, and then they can only wander around and leave their familiar and warm homes.

The suffering of the people is the greatest suffering in the world. If it is not solved, then what is the use of being the emperor? Of course, the emperor knows this truth, and today he not only has to solve this important matter related to the people's livelihood, but also by the way, he must also solve the problem of the Su clan's power and high authority, and moreover, not only their family, but also all the scholars of the Dayue Dynasty.

I sighed inwardly. The marble was cold and bitter, and now my body had begun to weaken, and the slightest wind chill was a problem for me. Moreover, my legs are already numb from my knees, and I have to continue to listen to their heavy and lengthy deliberations here, which is really a bad time tonight.

Anyway, let's see what's going on. Judging from the emperor's character, today's Su Haogeng, even if he can survive, the power of their Su family will plummet, and together with Prime Minister Su, his position may not be guaranteed. But......

I peeked at the Sorosso champion, and their family was also one of the four great warrior clans. The Emperor's ultimate goal tonight must be to weaken the power of the nobles in order to consolidate his rule. Looking at Xia Lingran's appearance just now, I guess he and the emperor mean the same thing, the power of the scholars is too great, and many important official positions in the court are held by these people, including the phases that can most threaten the imperial power. Although Xia Lingran was the patriarch of the head of the four major scholar clans, he could not completely control all the scholar clans, even if it was the emperor, he could not be sure that all the scholar clans were under his control. Therefore, today's opportunity is probably a good time for them to wait for a long time, and if they don't get rid of these hidden dangers now, they will wait for a while.

Moreover, Xia Lingran was the first to speak, and there was a pun in his words, and his position was probably very clear. Mo Xiyu, as well as Mo Nanhuan, these two princes must support their own families. Now, let's see what this Solo has to say. In the entire imperial study, he is the only one who can speak his voice, and I, of course, is impossible. Hey.

"Suo Qingjia, what do you think?" the emperor asked in a cold tone. But when I heard it, it was obviously majestic and threatening. The result of the emperor's questioning must be absolute surrender. Otherwise, you will not be a "minister".

Solo saluted and said softly: "Weichen believes that although the guilt of the Dingwu General Su Haogeng is very great, the crime cannot be killed. ”

Sure enough, it was a plea, and it seemed that this person was indeed a talent. I tugged at the corners of my mouth slightly.

"What's the meaning of this?" asked the fourth prince, Mo Nanhuan. The tone is less arrogant than usual, and now he seems to have a stable side. The three of them, father and son, are really good all the way, dragons give birth to dragons, and phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, that's how to say.

Suo Zhuangyuan was not in a hurry to answer. He opened a yellow fold, pointed to the place where the red pen was reading on it, and said: "According to the instructions on the chapter, there have been enclosures and expulsions in various places. And the cause started with General Su. ”

The study was so quiet that you could hear a needle dropping. Everyone listened to him. Everyone, including me, of course, breathed quietly, for fear that I wouldn't hear his high opinions.

He lifted another fold and said slowly: "Now, this matter seems to be out of control. Now, if it ends hastily, or inappropriately, I'm afraid it will have a big impact. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Old Prime Minister Su and smiled slightly.

The emperor nodded slightly, and then asked, "According to what the Qing family said, how should it end?"

The minister believed that if General Su was asked about the death penalty at this moment, it would only cause panic among the large and small scholars in the country, and at that time, it would be even more difficult to solve the problem. General Su's law of triggering the enclosure is really a scourge, and it is inconsistent with the law and reason. And General Su's status is extremely high, if even he has to be condemned to death, other warriors may not be able to escape. As a result, it's hard to predict what will happen......"

Solo closed the fold, paused, and continued in a steady tone: "Therefore, General Su must not die. His Majesty can punish General Su neither severely nor lightly. In this way, it can not only stabilize the people, but also reassure the scholars in the enclosure. And these nobles only need to be punished slightly. In this way, the people will have nothing to blame. ”

I looked up and looked at Solo carefully, my gaze a little casually probing. In normal times, I wouldn't dare to be so blatant. But at this time, everyone's mind is obviously not with me.

Xia Lingran's iceberg-like face showed a smile. He looked at Solo and asked, "How does Lord Solo think it should be punished?"

Solo also laughed and replied: "Remove General Su from his post and reduce the power of the nobles." ”

"Good. The emperor spoke approvingly, and Leng Jun's face was a little smiling.

Xia Lingran also nodded at Solo with approval in his eyes.

On the side, the third prince Mo Xiyu did not speak again, his eyes were as calm as water, he had expected this, everything was not expected, didn't he?

Mo Nanhuan didn't have so many expressions, and he was still a little kid, but he looked at me contemptuously, purely looking at my jokes. Damn, every time. Haven't you seen someone more handsome than you? I glared at him viciously while others were not paying attention. Always go against me, your life is too long. The resentment of my kneeling was all poured out on him with one look.

The third child glanced at me at this time, and I hurriedly lowered my head to look at the floor.

Too lazy to bother with you, I sneered in my heart.

Solo's words are exactly what you want. He not only helped Prime Minister Su Genghao save Su Genghao, so he gave the Su family a favor, and just enough for the emperor to weaken the scholar family. Because of this "punishment", it is said that it is big and big, and it is small and small, isn't it to reduce the privileges of the scholars, and by the way, to lay off a large number of people from the scholars. Solo himself is also a scholar clan, but the Suo family did not participate in the enclosure and has never been very strict, plus the Suo family has a solid foundation, even if the privileges are reduced, it will not have much impact on them. After all, the Suo people were one of the four great warrior clans of the Dayue Dynasty.

In this way, Solo's suggestion can not only solve the problem and protect his own family, but also meet the emperor's purpose. Kill three birds with one stone, why not. I knew it to me.

The emperor casually flipped up the green and yellow soft fold in his hand, looked straight at Prime Minister Su with sharp eyes, and asked in a deep voice, "Prime Minister Su, what do you think?"

Prime Minister Su Lao, like me, was also kneeling tremblingly. As soon as he heard the emperor's question, he immediately replied with a slight cry: "Of course the minister is willing...... Of course I do, but the old minister can't ask for it. Emperor Xie exempted the dog from death, thanked the lord Longen, and the old minister never gave up. ”

"The prime minister is exempt. Emperor Mo Junyan smiled slightly, and his deep voice was majestic.

Prime Minister Su stood up trembling slightly, his body a little rickety. At this time, he had tears in his eyes, and he could no longer see the high-spirited appearance of the year. This old figure is just the humble body of a poor father.

I still kept my head down, and for some reason, I felt a sour feeling in my heart. Su Laocheng's love for his son is so deep that I am a little envious. Father and son, I never expected this to happen to me. This kind of feeling, perhaps, will never have.
