Double standard?

Li Mo was shocked, how can this be considered a double standard? Can the things of the reader be regarded as a double standard?

"Sir, it is Your Majesty's intention to let Caogong convey the news, since it was kidnapped by the big clan, Caogong was indignant and went to save his family, it is not his fault!" Lu Bing has always disliked to talk too much, but since Li Mo taught him cultural knowledge, he is a master, if he doesn't even talk about this bit of loyalty, he won't even be a person.

In fact, it can also be seen that Lu Bing is a very traditional person, and he is not at all the same as the guys under Wang Yue's sect who deceived teachers and destroyed ancestors. Maybe this is also the reason why Zhu Houxi trusts him!

"Commander Lu, things can't be seen like this, the cao workers colluded with each other and rushed to other people's homes, without paying attention to the rules and regulations...... What if it goes on for a long time? Today you can gather 100 people, tomorrow you can gather 1,000 people, 10,000 people...... Han has Yellow Turbans, Tang has Yellow Nests, and Song has Mani...... We must prevent it! ”

There is no need for Wang Yue to refute this, Lu Bing said directly: "Sir, the family raises thugs, aren't you afraid of another Cao Cao Sima Yi?" ”

"This ......" Li Mo was choked and rolled his eyes, are you still my apprentice? Why don't you know towards me?

"The so-called big clans are all with industry and reputation, and as the so-called constant production and perseverance, they will not behave like the poor people."

This time, Lu Bing didn't know what to say, this is a simple double standard, it is clearly a double standard!

"Of course, the gentry will not come nonsense, they will only annex land, avoid forced labor, oppress the good, monopolize education, and then do whatever they want, run rampant in the countryside, replace national law with patriarchal law, steal the authority of the imperial court, and be the emperor of one party!"

Wang Yue's voice was flat, but Li Mo listened to it in his ears, but it was still like thunder!

Isn't this the reason why people like Wang Yue and Zhang Xuan are pushing for the change of the law?

I obviously defended them, why did I seem to have fallen into a pit?

Li Mo still wanted to argue, but Wang Yue said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that he should allow Cao Gong to organize soldiers and horses!" ”

"Oh? Why? ”

"Your Majesty, the transportation has been going on for hundreds of years, and the real resistance is not the Caogong below, but from the various forces that lie on the canal and absorb the benefits. They oppressed and persecuted, pushed the cao workers to the front, and followed the court to confront. Nowadays, only by allowing the workers to organize themselves and use their own strength to promote change can we do it."

"As for the imperial court...... We should communicate with these Caogong militiamen, support them, assist them, and work together to complete the change! ”

As soon as Wang Yue's words were finished, Li Mo was stunned.

Crazy, crazy!

He took the initiative to let the Caogong organize, what is this?

"Your Majesty, don't condone the people! Otherwise, once the chaos arises, the people will not be able to make a living, the country will be unstable, and the society will be unstable...... King, Lord Wang, this is a chaotic country! ”

Li Mo was eagerly opposed, and he did not choose his words.

Zhu Houxi smiled faintly, "Li Mo, what are you afraid of!" Similar measures were not unused by the imperial court. I remember the militia in the north, and they did a good job, right? ”

Lu Bing hurriedly said: "That's true. When the imperial court sent immigrants to the north, they were allowed to carry weapons to protect themselves...... Over the years, the militia in the north has captured no less than 100,000 barbarians, expanded the territory to the north for thousands of miles, and paid hundreds of thousands of taels of taxes to the imperial court every year. It is indeed a great thing that the imperial court can feed a strong army without spending much financial resources. ”

Zhu Houxi smiled and nodded, "That's it, the north is full of tigers and wolves, and the situation is dangerous, and the banks of this canal look more dangerous than the north!" Caogong can form a militia, as for what the consequences will be, I just have to carry it, can it still be reversed? ”

Can it still be reversed?

really let Zhu Houxi guess correctly, it is indeed the opposite of the sky, but the reverse of this sky is a little small!

"Brothers in Caokou, tell the big guy one thing, a great thing! Your Majesty has made our decisions! Those big old men, if you want to bully people anymore, it won't work! We can form our own militia and fight them! ”

Hearing the news, after the gathered workers lost their minds for a short time, they all burst into thunderous cheers, and some of them shed tears of excitement.

The so-called millionaires are not the kind of people who are hired to do things, and their situation is very complicated...... Generally speaking, every other paragraph, there is a caokou, in which there are a few leaders who have the final say, and they are responsible for this paragraph.

If you want to eat the rice of Caogong, you have to worship their cousin, make money, and provide for them, if you don't serve this gang well, don't think about eating this bowl of rice.

On the other hand, the merchants who use the canal must also deal with Caokou, otherwise you will not want to navigate smoothly.

Let's just put it this way, there are dozens of fees to be paid for a trip to the two-thousand-mile canal, and I don't know how many in secret.

To put it more clearly, this is a group of mountain kings.

It's just that their situation is much more complicated than that of the King of the Mountain, and everyone who dares to work and do business has the support of big people behind them.

Either it is a local wealthy family, or a dignitary, anyway, no one supports it, it can't even be maintained for a moment, and it directly lets other people swallow it all.

Under such a layer-by-layer pressing structure, Caogong is the lowest level of small shrimp, they have suffered a lot, if you ask, almost everyone is full of bitterness.

What else can I do?

You want to live!

Do you resist?

What kind of resistance?

Just when everyone was resigned to their fate, an opportunity suddenly came.

His Majesty not only did not hold them accountable, but also issued a decree allowing the workers to form a militia, which is a great grace.

"Brothers, old and young masters, I have a few words...... The emperor has given us grace, we can't know what is good, we can't be shameless! Let me tell you a few rules...... First, we can't kill people casually at every turn, knives, guns, bows and arrows can't be used, just a wooden stick per person, and sharp weapons can only be used as a last resort. Second, we can't bully people, let alone set up a private court, if we encounter any injustice, let's arrest people and send them to the yamen, so that Your Majesty can call the shots for us! Now in the Ming Dynasty, there is a big man in the sky, so there is no need to be afraid of being wronged. ”

"This third point, if you want me to say, we have to do the right thing, patrol for Your Majesty, restore the Cao Yun, we have to send food into the capital, and we can't let people starve. Do you think that's the case? ”

When the workers heard this, they nodded one after another, "Yes, what Third Brother Ma said is, that's it!" We also have rules, we can't be like those who are black-hearted and unreasonable! ”

In the midst of the drumming, as many as 300 workers formed the first militia organization of the entire canal...... They really don't have anything, like regular soldiers, it is impossible to buy a mandarin duck jacket or something. The big guy thought about it, so he simply found some red cloth, cut it into small strips, and tied it around his arm.

Then I found some hardwood, cut it into sticks, and fortunately there was no shortage of this thing on the canal.

The militia, led by Ma Guima Laosan, began to patrol.

Don't look at them simply, but they know who is blocking the luck.

The first target that the big guy pounced on was the Zhang family!

The Zhang family strictly forbade their workers to go to the river to pull fiber, and they were not allowed to come over, and they also used their own broken boats to cut off the river.

"Let Zhang Guangcai come out!"

Ma Gui yelled, "If we don't get those two broken ships away, we will burn them!" ”

The cao workers shouted for a long time, and finally there was movement, and those Cao workers under the Zhang family came one after another, and the number soon exceeded two hundred.

Subsequently, Zhang Guangcai led two or three hundred thugs and also arrived.

The two sides were equal in number and set up positions.

"What a big dog, dare to go to our Zhang family's territory to spread wild, and don't pee and take pictures, what kind of thing is he?"

Ma Guihe sneered, "I'm nothing, unlike someone who recognized the eunuch as a godfather and ran here to be a blessing!" ”

"You're looking for death!"

Zhang Guangcai's eyes stood up, "You know that my godfather is Zhang Yong's father-in-law, so you should get out of the way!" If you mess with Lao Tzu, none of you will be better! ”

"Grandpa Zhang? It's amazing! Ma Gui suddenly roared: "Brothers, whose people are we? ”

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Your Majesty! ”

Ma Gui laughed, "That's right, with His Majesty supporting us, whoever dares to move the luck, we will fight with them!" ”

"Brethren, follow me, up!"

After finishing speaking, Ma Gui raised an eight-foot-long whistle stick and pounced on Zhang Guangcai like a tiger......
