Chapter 72: Turning over your hands for clouds and covering your hands for rain, chaos, complete chaos!
The next day, the sun rises, when the first rays of sunlight fall into the dormitory.
Ying Zheng got down from the king's couch, dressed neatly, washed up, and came to the imperial study.
He immediately issued an edict and canonized Sui Bazi as a Sui beauty.
Ying Zheng gained 100 Wenzhi points.
Moreover, he issued an edict to the wealthy family of the Sui clan, and the Sui family could run the salt business in the county where it was located.
This is tantamount to giving the Sui family a great grace.
It will surely arouse the jealousy of other wealthy families.
This is also one of the means used by Yingzheng to divide the wealthy families.
In addition, King Qin has more ruthless tricks.
He ordered to deprive Fan Zhenzhen of the Fan family and Zhu Yingnan of the Zhu family's wealthy family of the title of eight sons, and put the two daughters in the cold palace.
In this way, the two girls can only die alone in the cold palace, basically going crazy within a few years, and then dying in a short time.
The reason for the punishment is that the two girls are impure in mind and intend to cause trouble in the harem.
Of course, this is all a sin of desire.
Fan Zhenzhen and Zhu Yingnan became victims of the 36 wealthy families of Ying Zhengdou.
King Qin knew that it was very unfair to the two women, in the mood for love, they had never even seen the face of King Qin, so they were put into the cold palace on a charge, which was equivalent to a death sentence.
However, Ying Zheng did not feel the slightest guilt because of this, the daughters of Fan and Zhu were just two chess pieces.
From the day they entered the palace, they should have known that they were pawns crossing the river, there was no turning back, and life and death were in the mind of King Qin.
When Ying Zheng was about to marry the four wealthy families, he arranged the ending for the two chess pieces of the Fan family and the daughter of the Zhu family.
That's their fate!
King Qin's move broke the dream of the Fan family and the Zhu family's queen family, and completely pushed them to the opposite side of the Qin royal court and the opposite side of the Lu family.
This is exactly what Yingzheng needs.
Only in this way can the thirty-six wealthy families of Great Qin, led by the four top wealthy families of Lu, Fan, Zhu, and Sui, be able to fight fiercely and have internal friction.
......
Soon, the eunuchs of Zhangtai Palace went to the Peony Pavilion and Cuifeng Pavilion where Fan Zhenzhen and Zhu Yingnan were located to convey His Majesty's will.
When the two stunning beauties learned that they were going to be sent to the cold palace, their tears fell silently like broken pearls, which was very desolate.
But tears can't save them.
On the same day, the two girls were sent to the cold palace.
The grandmothers and maids who followed them into the palace all committed suicide by hanging beams.
The news spread in the harem, and the show girls and concubines were frightened.
This is the harem!
This is the Emperor!
Powerful, luxurious, but cold and cruel!
......
The mansion of the Sui family, the main hall of the meeting.
The patriarch sat in his high seat, and the other elders were circulating two letters.
One is a letter written by the patriarch of the Fan family, asking the Sui family to join the crusade against the Lu family, eliminate the Lu family, a heresy, and safeguard the interests of the Great Qin Hao Alliance.
The other is a letter written by the patriarch of the Lu family, the content of which is to let the Sui family's wealthy family ignore the Fan family's wealthy family, and list the powerful ones.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think of the handwritten letters of the two patriarchs of Lu Fan?" the patriarch said, glancing at the elders.
"Patriarch, I don't think it's better for us to choose a side, but to watch the fire from the other side!"
"Patriarch, let the Fan clan and the Lu clan fight, and when the two powerful clans of them lose the battle, our Sui clan may still get more benefits. ”
"No, that's a bad statement, I think we should support the Fan family, the Lu family is no longer the Lu family of the past.
The Lu clan wants to be the Yin clan of the Qin State, and wants to be above all the wealthy clans and be powerful, and we can't let it succeed!"
"Yes, if the Lu clan becomes an existence like the Wei State Yin clan, our Sui clan will not have good fruits to eat!"
“......”
For a time, there were two major factions within the Sui clan.
One faction felt that it was better to remain neutral and reap the benefits of the fisherman.
One faction feels that there are no eggs under the nest, and they should support the Fan family and suppress the Lu family.
The patriarch was also in a dilemma, not knowing what to choose.
If he remains neutral, he is worried that the Lu clan will continue to grow bigger and suppress the Sui clan in the future.
If you support the Fan clan to wage war against the Lu clan, it will be tantamount to a war against the Qin royal court, and behind the Lu clan is the Great Qin royal family, which is the King of Qin.
The contemporary King of Qin is a male master, and if he opposes it, he will be cleaned up sooner or later.
At this moment, a clansman ran into the main hall, knelt down on one knee and said, "Patriarch, the royal court has come to the royal edict, go and receive the edict!"
When the patriarch heard this, his face was full of solemnity, and he stood up and walked out of the main hall.
The other elders followed.
When he came to the reception hall, the patriarch met the eunuch from the royal court.
"The patriarch of the Sui clan has received the edict!" the eunuch said in a loud voice.
The patriarch immediately knelt down, and the other elders also knelt on the ground.
The eunuch continued: "Fengtian carrier, King Qin's edict said: The Sui family sent the excellent woman Sui Keren into the palace, and I was very relieved to canonize Sui Keren as a beauty. In addition, the Sui clan was commended, and he was allowed to sell salt in the local county, and he was allowed to do so!"
When the patriarch and the elders heard this, they were slightly stunned.
"Still not taking the edict?" said the eunuch.
The patriarch came back to his senses, his face was full of joy, his hands were raised high, and he took the royal edict with a sense of ceremony: "Thank you, Lord Longen!"
He knew that selling salt was a lucrative business, and that there were at least hundreds of thousands of taels of silver a year from selling it in the local county.
Originally, salt was monopolized by the government, and other wealthy families could not be contaminated.
Now, Your Majesty's opening of the salt business to the Sui clan is tantamount to a great grace!
The patriarchs and elders rejoiced.
Sending off the eunuchs, the patriarch and the elders came to the main hall.
The patriarch stood up, without any hesitation, and said in a deep voice: "This patriarch declares that my Sui clan will never interfere in the dispute between the Fan clan and the Lu clan!"
"The patriarch is wise!" this time, all the elders said in unison.
With Ying Zheng's royal edict issued, the Sui clan knew what to do.
They saw that the Sui Keren were expected to compete for the position of queen, and the wealthy family of the Sui clan was expected to become the first noble of Great Qin, and His Majesty gave him a generous gift.
In this way, you cannot offend Your Majesty.
If he chooses to join the ranks of the Fan family, he will be an enemy of the Qin royal family, and at that time, the Sui Keren will no longer have any hope of competing for the position of queen.
Such a stupid thing, the Sui family naturally didn't do it.
But after a few days, the situation changes dramatically.
Of course, that's all for later.
The other five small wealthy families who had a good relationship with the Sui family, seeing that the Sui family made such a choice, they also followed suit and chose to watch the fire from the other side.
The Zhu family, one of the four top wealthy families, chose to work with the Fan family to suppress the Lu family.
This is not surprising, Zhu Yingnan, the proud daughter of the Zhu family, was beaten into the cold palace, which is a great shame for the Zhu family.
It can't directly start a war with the Qin royal family, so it will attack the Lu family.
The small wealthy clans, who were originally the leaders of the two wealthy families of Fan and Zhu, also joined the ranks of the Fan family and the Zhu family to suppress the Lu family.
The Lu family's wealthy clan took on the small wealthy clan attached to him and confronted Fan Zhu.
Three days later, the patriarch of the Sui clan was accidentally poisoned.
And, when the murderer was caught, it was found that it was the spy that the Fan family had planted in the Sui family.
In fact, all this is the prime minister's arrangement, or a conspiracy.
The Sui clan was naturally furious, and the hatred of killing the patriarch was not shared, and they decided to join the Lu clan and declare war on the Fan clan.
Other small wealthy clans who followed the Sui clan also declared war on the Fan clan.
At this point, the thirty-six wealthy clans of Great Qin have all fallen into internal friction, and it is an evenly matched internal friction.
And it is Yingzheng who is behind the scenes who makes all this happen.
"Ding Dong! Congratulations to the host for completing the side quest: divide the thirty-six wealthy clans, let them fight among themselves, consume each other, and reward 3,000 martial arts points. ”
At this moment, the voice of the cold system sounded in King Qin's mind.
