"The second child took your room to Zhao State, that was a back road left by the old man in his early years, Zhou Liang, the head of the household department of Zhao State, and Guo Cong, the captain of the Southern Army, had studied under the old man in his early years. When you go there, they will naturally take care of you more for the sake of the old man's face. In addition, the old man also has some hidden properties in Zhao Kingdom, which is enough for you to spend in the future. I hope you can make my family bigger. ”

"Father." Gongzhi knelt on the ground and kowtowed, his voice choked, and he didn't get up for a long time.

"Alright, get up. Don't do this little girl gesture. Gongmohan waved his hand calmly, and then said: "The third child, you choose a pair of children to follow the second child together, as for you, stay and go to the Lanzhou Mansion, the old man heard that the voice of opposition to Gongsun Jian over there is the loudest, and many of them are our noble clansmen, where we have a very broad foundation and strong power, the old man wants to see if Gongsun Jian's kid can really implement his bullshit new policy." ”

"Yes, father." Gongzhen bowed down to receive the order, he was the most hated of the three brothers, so let him and Gongsun Jian fight against him, he naturally couldn't ask for it.

After instructing these things, Gong Mohan looked at the children and grandchildren below and sighed slightly. They are all their grandchildren, but unfortunately none of them can have some confidence and ability, there is really one who can compete with Gongsun Jian, he does not hesitate to use the public's century-old heritage and even those hidden forces to support. Pity......

Waved away these useless grandchildren, leaving only the three brothers in the middle hall.

The old man thought about it carefully, and after the separation, the old man had nothing to worry about, so he was ready to agree to Gongsun Jian's request today, and go to which council to hold various positions. Hehe, the old man won't discuss any politics for him, but it's okay to walk around the situation. His old man in the council has also heard of it, all of them are old people in the countryside, what kind of politics can they discuss? ”

"Father, why don't you go to Zhao with the second child. Here I will find a way to help the third child. Gong Zhen suggested.

"Hehe, I'm the prime minister of Zhou to go to Zhao State. Do you think others can tolerate me? Besides, if I don't stay here, do you think the second child is gone? Your good son's heart is harder than anyone else's. Believe it or not, if the word spreads that we are here today, he will bring people to destroy us tomorrow. ”

"This ......" Gong Zhen was speechless for a while.

At this time, there was a commotion outside the middle hall, and a servant stumbled into the middle hall, panting and saying loudly: "The old lady is not good, our mansion is surrounded by a large army." The general who led the team came with His Majesty in the morning, and kept saying that our mansion harbored rebellion and wanted to bring people into the mansion to arrest him. ”

With a 'bang', the teacup in Gong Mohan's hand fell to the ground and shattered. He never imagined that his grandson would do something to his family in such a short period of time.

Gong Mohan, who had been coming back for a long time, shuddered and asked, "Has Your Majesty come in person?" ”

"Back to the old lady, the slave didn't see Your Majesty, but there is a chariot parked outside our house, and there are samurai guards next to it, I think it's probably Your Majesty in the car."

"Boss, help the old man to go outside the gate. Today, the old man is desperate to die, and he has to make it clear to the beast. Gong Mohan stood up violently, walked out of the middle hall with a cane tremblingly, and the three sons hurriedly stepped forward to help, for fear that the old man would fall out of his anger and make a bad fall.

But before Gong Mohan and his party could enter the doorway, they saw many soldiers with guns and knives rushing in outside, threatening everyone to stay where they were and not to move. The first person was Wei Meng, who accompanied Gongsun Jian during the day.

"General Wei, what do you mean by this?" Gong Mohan asked with a clear pretense of confusion.

"It's not interesting, I heard someone report that the government is preparing to rebel. So let's check it out. Wei Meng replied coldly.

But Gong Mohan was not so easy to deal with, although he was angry in his heart, he asked with a smile on his face: "I don't know if he deliberately framed my father-in-law, and please return my father-in-law's innocence to the adult." Otherwise, the old man on His Majesty's side will go and say. ”

Wei Meng didn't pay attention to him at all, pressed the hilt of the knife on his waist, and shouted loudly to the surroundings: "Listen to me, according to Your Majesty's dictation, the public family has been treacherous for generations, and the country is chaotic, and on the occasion of the new dynasty, he wants to rebel, and the crime is unforgivable, but for the sake of the same clan and clan, it is hereby ordered that from now on, all the people in the public family will be confined from now on, and no one shall go out or enter without permission according to His Majesty's will, or pass information and exchange information with the outside world, and all will be beheaded according to the rebellion." ”

"This ......" Gong Mohan was like an old tree that had been cut down, trembling and falling backwards. But his finger pointed out of the gate, and his mouth could no longer speak.

"Father, what's wrong with you?" The three sons were in a hurry. The servants next to him also hurriedly wanted to come forward to check, but they were stopped by those soldiers shouting.

"All retreat, the old minister's ability to pretend to be dead is really not bad." Wei Mengpi looked at Gong Mohan, who was held by Gong Zhen and others, and said: "Your Majesty has another will, within three days, please invite the old minister to go to the Council for business, and if you don't meet the time, the whole family of the public family will be punished according to the rebellion, and you will be cut off as one!" Lao Xiangguo take good care of your body. With that, Wei Meng turned around and left, and loudly ordered the soldiers to take care of the public compound, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

At this time, the public house fell into a dead silence, and a suppressed cry faintly came from the backyard. Everyone understands that His Majesty the Great Zhou Emperor is not ordinary ruthless. I am afraid that the good life of my own people will come to an end. But the only one who doesn't think so. That is the son of the third grandfather, the ninth son of the public family.

I secretly reported the arrangement of the clan to Gongsun Jian, and in exchange for Brother Yue's reward, it is said that I can protect me from worry-free for the rest of my life. Hehe, then you don't have to suffer with the public anymore. So this world still has to know the current affairs for Junjie, Brother Yue and I didn't deal with it before, so what, people are now His Majesty the Emperor, and it's all wrong with me in the past. Who allowed himself to bully his niece? Well, if you have the opportunity to see your eldest niece when you go back, you must make amends.

Three days later, Gong Mohan dragged his sick body and stood up, took the initiative to serve as the vice president of the Great Zhou State Council, and delivered a speech, calling on all the subjects of the former Zhou State to collectively submit to the Great Zhou, work with peace of mind, and stop going against the imperial court. The New Deal of the Great Zhou Dynasty is a good one, embodies its advanced nature, represents all laborers, and is of epoch-making significance. All people should respond positively, and stand together under the banner of His Majesty the Great Zhou Emperor to work together to make progress and develop together, and build a harmonious, beautiful, united and enterprising Great Zhou Dynasty.

Of course, this speech was written by Gongsun Jian in advance, and then polished by Shi Fangheng, and Huang Wenyuan also made a further elaboration on the new policy in it. When Gong Mohan finished speaking, the full text was immediately published and spread throughout the territory of the Great Zhou.

Immediately afterwards, Gongsun Jian came forward and highly praised Gongmohan's spirit of loving the country, the monarch and the people, and was an example worthy of learning from thousands of former ministers of the Zhou State. The implementation of the New Deal is an inevitable historical consequence and will not be subject to individual will. Therefore, those who want to oppose the empire will end up in destruction and be spurned by history.

Later, Gongsun Jian once again said that for those officials of the former Zhou State, after passing the political review and professional assessment, they would be admitted to the official system of the Great Zhou on the basis of merit. On the contrary, those who oppose the court will not only be punished themselves, but also the family behind them.

After Gongsun Jian and Gongmo Han made speeches one after another, the wind direction in the entire former Zhou Kingdom immediately changed, and many people began to retreat, because the methods of the surname Gong were cruel enough. I heard that because of the rebellion against him in the eastern part of the Southern Han Dynasty, there is almost no rich family anymore, and all those wealthy families have been killed.

Of course, these are all news propagated by Huang Wenyuan, and the real situation is that there is still a constant resistance there, and Xu Hu led people into the mountains to fight guerrillas after the defeat. This made Gongsun Jian very annoyed. Can't you have some grace as a dignified governor? If you lose, you won't admit it. For this reason, Gongsun Jian ordered the special operations brigade to capture Xu Hu alive to see him.

After more than a month, Gongsun Jian felt that the matter here in the capital was almost handled, so he took most of the people and his subordinates to prepare to return to Linshui County.

It's a pity that many things in the world can't go as you wish, and this side is ready to go, but there is an accident over there. The army composed of the rebellious wealthy families in Gyeongju Mansion actually defeated Qian Yan, and Qian Yan was said to have suffered a lot of injuries, judging from the information sent back, it seems that he almost hung up. Fortunately, the casual military doctor has good skills, and he barely saved Qian Yan's life.

This took Gongsun Jian by surprise. originally thought that those rebels were not worth mentioning at all, and there would be no problem with Qian Yan's horse, but the key is that the soldiers and horses led by Qian Yan are basically all subordinates of the previous Zhou Kingdom, and many of these people are inextricably linked to those wealthy families. This is also the reason for Qian Yan's defeat.

After listening to the report of the Intelligence Division, his face was so gloomy that he was about to drip. It took a long time to come back to his senses and ask angrily, "What about Wei Mengren?" Didn't he let him lead his troops to follow behind Qian Yan as protection? ”

Shi Fangheng, who was on the side, hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, General Wei is late, and the main task is to clear the remnants of those wealthy families. Didn't really go into battle to charge. The battle ahead is basically in charge of His Royal Highness the King of Min. ”

"Order Wei Meng, do whatever it takes for me to annihilate those rebels, remember not one of them, and wipe out all of them. In addition, Lao Ding's Third Army was sent to support him. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Shi Fangheng nodded in agreement, paused for a moment and spoke again: "Your Majesty, after discussing with Feng Shoufu, the ministers and others feel that the territory of the Zhou State will be redivided into six provinces, and together with our previous four provinces, there will be a total of ten provinces. In addition, the division of the territory annexed by Cao Dudu's side was basically completed, and the previous place was divided into four provinces, and the latter occupied the same four provinces. That side is basically wiped out now, and because the previous rebellion has almost killed many wealthy families, the implementation of the new policy is quite smooth. It is easier than the places we occupied before, and it has the support of many local people, the only thing that is a little lacking is that Xu Hu is still leading people to resist stubbornly and fight guerrillas in the mountains and wilderness. ”

"Waste. Is a Xu Hu so difficult to deal with? Gongsun Jian was inexplicably a little irritable.

"Send someone to ask Xie Wu, if he still wants to be the commander of the special operations brigade, he can't catch a single Xu Hu by sending so many people."

"Your Majesty, General Xie sent a letter, saying that Xu Hu is easy to kill but not easy to catch. The key Your Majesty's will is to ask to be captured alive. Therefore, General Xie is also more difficult to do. ”

"Old Shi, you don't have to excuse him. I've been there a few times before with the Special Operations Brigade, but now I've made great achievements, and all my tails are up to the sky. Hmph, where are we going? But some people are not proud. I think this matter needs to be rectified and reflected. Gongsun Jian didn't know why he was so irritable today, he didn't have his usual calmness before, and his tone of voice was very harsh.
