Chen Mu warned all senior officials not to go out and wander around when they have nothing to do, because the people in this city are very resentful, and no years of education can eliminate the resentment in their hearts.

As soon as he finished saying this, everyone's eyes became a little weird, as if to say, King Muki, it seems that only you like to wander around the most. You'd better mind yourself.

Facing everyone's weird and even slightly weird eyes, Chen Mu was unmoved and continued to talk about his theory to everyone. Although he himself is not sure whether what he said is true or not, he does it this way, and it often works well.

Of course, there are times when he misses, for example, yesterday, he prepared a lot of change and gave alms to the poor on the street, only to have a guy suddenly appear among the poor with a knife in his hand. If it weren't for Zhong Lixiang's quick reaction, quick movements, and ruthless attack, he would have killed that guy directly. Maybe the shepherd is going to be hurt.

When good people are also stabbed, it can be seen how deep the people's grievances here are.

Sometimes, the words are meant to be spoken to yourself, sort out the thoughts in your head. Chen Mu said that even after the most restless years, it does not mean that it is safe here, because the war has planted the seeds of hatred here. The greatest possible eradication of hatred can only be achieved through long-term education and care and, of course, some special means.

In order to minimize the danger of the city, especially to combat those organized riots, Chen Mu made a temporary decision - to pay honest people a good people's pension. Those who rioted were sentenced to prison at the worst, paid mob taxes at the least, and enslaved their children and grandchildren. Implement the neighborhood joint sitting system and the whistle-blowing system, paid exposure, and atonement exposure. It is intended to disintegrate the enemy from within. People who have participated in riots, and those who are preparing to participate in riots, are exempt from mob tax if they expose one. If two are exposed, the government will issue him a certificate of good citizenship.

After the decree was announced, the city landscape changed dramatically. Those who clamored to fight Liang Jun to the end were soon exposed and reported by "their own people", and then they also participated in the action of exposing the report.

In the end, the three organizers were arrested.

You can't treat them softly, and you can directly kill them with a cane in the place where the most people are pulled, and kill chickens and monkeys to deter Xiaoxiao.

The rest of the people were interviewed in two situations, and those who were willing to repent were allowed to go.

But some of the hard-nosed guys can't let them go back. Directly pulled into the army as a slave soldier.

It's been a year since these things were done.

The third year of God's gift, the fifth day of the first month.

In the palace of Ulcheng, the main hall of the palace, Chen Mu sat upright in the middle, and Cao Sheng and Zhao Jin were on both sides. The three of them sat on a mat. Facing south.

Other generals, secretaries, and members of the "pro-Liang faction" of the Ulseong royal family sat opposite. A few smaller ones in front of each person. Maids poured in in rows, each carrying a steaming copper pot with red-hot coals underneath it, and slices of meat tumbling in the copper pot with a layer of pepper floating on it.

Chen Mu invited everyone to eat hot pot on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.

Chen Mu vigorously advocated a separate meal system, one pot per person.

At the banquet, talking about the relevant policies of the Shepherd King in Ulcheng, Zhao Jin sighed: "There is nothing that money can't solve." ”

The cripple said, "War is about money." Whether it is the purpose of the war, or the course of the war. If the word money is not accurate enough, it can be changed to the word profit. ”

In the face of their words, Chen Mu did not affirm or deny them, and while eating, he played with a piece of jade in his hand. Suddenly, he turned his head and beckoned Zhong Lixiang, who was standing with a knife, to sit at the same table. Add a pair of chopsticks to her, and the king of Mu personally sandwiches meat for her. Quite spoiled. Then he gave the piece of jade in his hand to Zhongli. Zhongli said she didn't like it.

This piece of jade was given to Chen Mu by the daughter of the king of Ulcheng just now. The princess of Ulcheng is named Marlan, and her name is taken from "Erya? Arashi Mist. The princess said, "Thank you for the arrival of the Shepherd and for getting us out of hell." When she said this, the princess, who was not good at hiding her emotions, could vaguely see hatred in her eyes.

Chen Mu saw that the princess was against his will, and he did not embarrass the princess, not only accepted her gift, but also sent an invitation to the princess, hoping that the princess would stay by his side and be a female secretary. was politely rejected by the princess.

At that time, the princess's brother had a very ugly face, and he was angry at his sister's ignorance. When the sister returned, the prince named Ma Sheng glared at the princess fiercely, and complained a few words of hatred.

Of course, the princess is no longer a princess, everyone is just used to calling her that.

Now the royal family of Ulcheng is no longer a royal family, because Chen Mu does not intend to apply to the Emperor of the Liang Dynasty for them at all. Just said to Ma Sheng, if you behave well enough, I can apply for an earl for you. Ma Sheng asked, how to perform well? Chen Mu said, you have to select at least 300 people from your former royal family to participate in our war. If you don't make some military achievements, I can't speak for you in front of the emperor. Ma Sheng said that he would definitely do so.

"That princess seems to have a good temper." Zhong Lixiang said.

Chen Mu joked: "Little donkeys have tempers, and Shunshun Mao will be better." If you can't get along with it, whip it. Sooner or later, it will come by the way. ”

The original princess is now called Horse Girl, or Horse Beauty, and only a few people still call her a princess.

This girl is really good-looking, and she is also a Hu-Han mixed-race physical characteristic, tall and well-proportioned, with a high nose and wide eyes without losing her delicate spirit, the only thing that is not beautiful is that she has fallen into the hands of the generals and has been ruined by everyone. In the end, the horse girl fell into the hands of Gongsun Ji, who was the most kind-hearted of the generals, rescued the horse girl who was tortured to death, and cared for her to recover her health.

Chen Mu asked Gongsun Ji if he liked Miss Ma, if he did, I could be a matchmaker for you.

Gongsun Ji said, how can the eldest husband want to ruin the flowers and willows.

Chen Mu was quite disappointed with this sentence, but he didn't complain about Gongsun Ji, but secretly said in his heart that the thoughts of the people of the Liang Dynasty were very imprisoned. Chen Mu believes that the remnants of flowers are in the heart, and a woman like Han Jianniang can call the remnants of flowers and willows, and Miss Ma is actually a good girl, but she has encountered misfortune. Seeing that the public would dislike it, Chen Mu didn't bother to be this thankless matchmaker.

The banquet was about to end, and the generals had already left, and in the end, only the three giants of Chen, Cao, and Zhao and the three henchmen of Cripple, Zhang Han, and Zhong Lixiang were left in the house. There was also a Ma Zun, but he was greedy for a cup and got drunk, and was later carried away.

Ma Sheng and Ma Lan brothers and sisters have not left.

Seeing that there were fewer people, Ma Sheng stood up with his sister, came to the throne of the king, and knelt down in his robe: "The king of the herd is angry, and the little sister does not know how to lift up, and offends Chitose." He had already reprimanded her and reasoned with her. Now she regrets refusing the shepherd's invitation. ”

Chen Mu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "When people live, they should look to the future, not the past." That's how life gets better and better. As the backbone of the Ma family, you should have a long-term consideration. Being a secretary by my side will never treat you badly. As long as you brothers and sisters can stand by my side, you naturally don't have to worry about your clan being bullied. I'm giving you a chance, and I hope you can take it. ”
