Lu Hesheng, the rotating leader of the alliance, changed his words:

"But now, hasn't Yingzheng attacked the Ma clan yet?

If we mobilize the people to form a coalition at this time and find trouble with Yingzheng, it will not be beneficial to our wealthy people.

After all, Yingzheng recently overthrew Lü Buwei to achieve pro-government, pacified the Bashu Rebellion, defeated the Sanjin coalition army in Hexi, and captured Yucheng County.

A few days ago, he even used thunder methods to destroy the Tianlu Sect, the first sect of Great Qin, which was dominated by gods and demons.

This series of major events has pushed the prestige of Yingzheng to an unprecedented height.

The people of Qin supported him wholeheartedly and regarded him as a god.

Moreover, after these major battles, the morale of the Qin army was unprecedentedly high, and it was invincible in all battles.

If the 36 Hao clans at this time because of Yingzheng's handling of the Longxi incident, they formed a coalition army to invade Xianyang and forced it to abdicate.

We will be opposed by all the old Qin people, and the odds of victory are slim.

In the end, it will even bury the long-standing inheritance of the 36 wealthy families. ”

Lu Hesheng paused when he said this.

Except for Ma Juan's gloomy face, there were no words.

The patriarchs of other major wealthy clans agreed with Lu Hesheng's words.

Qin Wangzheng's recent record is really dazzling.

These patriarchs are cunning and cunning, and in the face of the general trend, they know that they can't go against the trend and attack Yingzheng at this moment.

Otherwise, there will be no good fruit to eat.

The leader of the rotating alliance raised his hand and signaled for everyone to be quiet.

When the patriarchs stopped speaking, he continued:

"Ladies and gentlemen, for the sake of justice, we will vote on whether or not to challenge Yingzheng.

The few obey the many.

Agree to form a coalition army, and those who attack Yingzheng should get up. ”

After finishing speaking, Lu Hesheng sat down, except for the Ma patriarch, who was still standing, everyone else sat still.

Lu Hesheng said: "Agree with the suggestion of the leader of this alliance, and do not make trouble for Yingzheng for the time being, please get up." ”

Rise!

Rise!

Everyone stood up, and Ma Juan stood all the time.

The result is obvious, all the wealthy families do not want to have a big conflict with Yingzheng at this moment.

Lu Hesheng looked at Ma Juan and said with a smile:

"Please take a break from the fire and don't be rash.

If Yingzheng disposes of Longxi this time and causes some losses to your Ma clan, please bear with the Ma patriarch for the time being.

When the moon is full, you will lose, and when Yingzheng is weak, you can double the loss and get it back. ”

"Since you don't want to make trouble against Ying Zheng, I have nothing to say, farewell!"

Ma Juan arched his hand and left the hall with an ugly face.

He knew that Ying Zheng's knife cut his Ma clan, and the other wealthy clans didn't feel the pain.

......

Qindu Xianyang, Zhangtai Palace, Imperial Study.

Ying Zheng is reviewing the folds.

"Your Majesty, the commander of the Jinyi Guard asked Lord Ji to see him. The eunuch came in and whispered.

King Qin put the brush on the Beacon Mountain: "Let him come in." ”

"No!"

The eunuch went out, and Ji Gang, who was dressed in a flying fish suit, entered the imperial study and knelt on the ground: "Minister Ji Gang, meet Your Majesty, long live long live long live!"

"Let's be even!" Ying Zheng looked at the other party and said, "How is the Longxi incident handled?"

"Your Majesty, the trial has been completed.

With the help of the county guard Ma Zhu and ten other county commanders, the Ma clan has annexed a total of more than 63,000 acres of fertile and fertile land in Longxi in the past three years.

Now, the minister asked 25 officials and officials, including the county guards and county magistrates, to sign and draw the charge, and escorted all of them back to Xianyang, at the mercy of His Majesty. ”

King Qin nodded: "Immediately upload the court lieutenant and the prime minister to the imperial study to see the driver." ”

"No!" the eunuch went out to deliver the edict.

Soon, the old court lieutenant and the prime minister both came to the imperial study.

After consulting with them, Ying Zheng finally made the following decision.

First of all, 25 people including the Longxi County Guard were sentenced to be executed, and the family property was confiscated, causing disaster to the whole family, and the old and young in the family were beheaded together.

Secondly, more than a dozen guilty officials of the Imperial Observatory, including the Imperial Historian, also gave the same verdict.

Third, the wealthy family of the Ma clan in Longxi was sentenced to hand over all the fertile land that had been illegally annexed in the past three years and returned to the original people for cultivation by the government.

As for the money used by Ma to purchase the land, it was confiscated because it was an illegal annexation.

Finally, it is stipulated that the officials of each county and county who come to the proud clan cannot be the county guard or county order.

If he is already in this position, he will be stripped of his official position by the royal court and turned into a deputy.

This was done to prevent the matter of Shou Ma Zhu of Longxi County helping the Ma clan to annex land on a large scale again.

......

After this verdict came out and reached Longxi County, the people applauded.

The Ma clan has oppressed the local people for not a day or two.

But the royal court and the county government have always turned a blind eye, and the big things have turned into small things.

The people dared not speak out of their anger.

The Ma family is in Longxi, just like the emperor of the soil.

Now, Qin Wangzheng executed Ma Zhu, the county guard of the Ma clan, and made the Ma clan spit out the 63,000 acres of fertile land annexed.

is really for the ordinary people of Longxi, and he has a good bad breath.

Of course, the Ma family, as the main victim, was indignant.

However, Ma Juan can only admit it.

At the alliance of the thirty-six wealthy clans, the other wealthy clans have already spoken out to them not to conflict with the royal family.

If Ma dares to go against the will of the Alliance, he will definitely be abandoned by the Alliance.

At that time, the Ma clan will lose the protection of the Hao Clan Alliance, and Ying Zheng will clean up the Ma clan as much as he wants.

Ma Juan could only carry out the alliance's decision and spit out the fat that came to his mouth.

However, it feels uncomfortable to be pinched by the neck and forcibly dug out of the stomach after eating.

His anger could only be vented on his servants.

There are several clansmen in the mansion of the Ma clan, and their heads were cut off by the angry ancestor to vent their anger.

The other wealthy clans in Daqin were dissatisfied with Yingzheng's announcement that officials of the wealthy clan could not serve as county guards and county commanders, but they did not make any trouble.

They also silently accepted the matter.

......

Xianyang, Zhangtai Palace.

Ying Zheng stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back.

Listening to the close eunuch read out, the news sent back by the new county guard in Longxi, and the other wealthy clans in Daqin acquiesced that the officials of the wealthy clan should not be the county keeper and the county order.

The Ma clan spit out 63,000 acres of fertile land, without any twists and turns in between.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Ying Zheng's mouth.

All this was expected by him.

Because, now the general trend is on the side of Yingzheng, and the thirty-six wealthy families dare not go against the trend and shout with the royal family.

Of course, Ying Zheng has no ability to wipe out the thirty-six wealthy clans for the time being.

Achieving such an ending can only be said to be the result of a compromise between the Great Qin Hao clan and Yingzheng.

He believed that after the Longxi incident, the 36 Hao clan should have reined in a lot in the near future and no longer illegally annexed land for the time being.

It can be regarded as meeting King Qin's expectations for the time being.

As for the elimination of the wealthy clans, they can only be tried slowly.

You can't make a big fat man by eating it in one bite.

"Ding Dong! Congratulations to the host for completing the side quest: to provide relief to the victims and severely punish the officials who are ineffective in disaster relief.

Gain 1000 Wenzhi points and 100 martial arts points;

In addition, a number of sweet potato root seeds of the food crop were awarded. ”

"Ding Dong! The recognition of the people of Great Qin for the King of Qin will increase by 1%, and the total national fortune value of the host will increase by 1%. ”

The cold sound of the system sounded in Ying Zheng's mind.

Ying Zheng heard the voice and was slightly happy.

Close your eyes and look at the system instantly.

Sweet potato?

Could it be the sweet potatoes planted by the Qing Dynasty, the last feudal dynasty in China?

Ying Zheng couldn't help but be curious and looking forward to it!

He had read the books given by the system and knew that it was precisely because of the introduction of sweet potatoes, the cultivation of large denominations, and political and economic stability that the population increased dramatically.

In the past 100 years, the population of the Qing Dynasty increased from more than 100 million in the Kangxi period to more than 300 million in the late Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty.

In the kingdom of supremacy, population is the top priority.

If you have enough population, you can recruit more soldiers and form more and stronger armies.

Conquer other nations and annex them.

The people live on food.

As the population increases, more food is needed.

Seeds for high-yielding food crops are particularly important.

Ying Zheng clicked on the sweet potato information.
