"Oh? What are they doing for this? ”

Wang Mang was slightly surprised, and his face was cloudy.

After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Do you know how many people support my approach?" How many are there who oppose me and want to kill me? ”

The beaten man replied: "Back to my lord, at present, I have only found a dozen or so people who support your decision-making like me. As for the opposition to your lordship, there are eight or nine out of ten in the entire Laishan City, and the remaining few are still on the sidelines.

Faced with this situation, the little one did not dare to reveal his thoughts, for fear of committing public anger. This time, when I heard that you had come to try the case in person, I was pleasantly surprised that I accidentally slipped my mouth and was listened to by a few of them, so they chased and killed all the way. ”

When Wang Mang heard this, he frowned.

When the rest of the onlookers heard this, they also muttered one after another, and once again staged the scene of opposing Wang Mang's policy before, and there was a lot of chaos.

"Lord Wang, now that Li Ao's case has been concluded, can you make it clear in front of many people about the cession of the six counties?" A middle-aged farmer said.

"Yes, it's just the right time, you can make a decision."

An old master who had read for a few years leaned on crutches and said, "Now that the matter has come out, if we don't give a clear explanation for this matter, maybe there will be other more important things." The idea of ceding the Six Counties was made a few months ago, and now it's up to you to make the final decision. ”

Suddenly, all the spearheads of the people pointed at Wang Mang, and the crowd became excited.

Wang Mang thought about it secretly for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Since this is the case, then I have to tell everyone about it." ”

"I was about to say it, my lord." The crowd replied.

Wang Mang glanced at everyone coldly, and said word by word: "The cession of two counties from the six counties is something I came up with two months ago. Based on the current situation, I can't finally decide on this matter, and I will have to wait another two months to see how it happens.

After two months, I will give you an accurate answer without delay. Also, I have already done all the things about taxes and grains, and there is no need to draw them from Yuzhou. As for the money and food that was transferred some time ago, I had already signed a pledge with my uncle. said that after two years, the original number will be returned. ”

"No, you have to give a clear statement now, and you can't delay any longer, so as not to make everyone feel uneasy." A common man with ulterior motives said coldly.

Wang Mang shook his head and said: "This is impossible, the preparation of major events needs to be discussed with people from all walks of life, how can I make a decision casually?" Two months is not a long time, it will pass in the blink of an eye, why are you in a hurry? ”

Wang Ping also said at the right time: "Fathers, my cousin is right, this kind of major decision really needs to be considered from all aspects, and you can't just draw conclusions.

My cousin said two months ago that he would cede the two counties out to negotiate peace, but hasn't this been carried out yet? He was also thinking about it, trying to find a way to confront several princes and the Huo family, the Wei family, and the Sun family.

Moreover, after listening to your opinions this time, he will naturally have an idea in his heart and will re-evaluate it, so everyone should not be forced like this. Otherwise, if we fall into internal chaos and the enemy attacks at this time, then we will all suffer. ”

She really couldn't stand it.

When this incident happened, she knew in her heart, and it was expected that Wang Hai must have arranged it. She couldn't bear to see Wang Mang in this situation of being persecuted, and she didn't want to use such villain methods. So he opened his mouth to help, delaying a moment or two.

When the people saw that she was coming out, they didn't continue to force her, and said in unison: "Miss, since you are all in favor of waiting for another two months, then we will naturally obey." But there is one thing, that is, Wang Mang must not be the lord of my six counties.

He is outward-looking, once he dominates the affairs of the six counties, he is sure that he will not continue to transfer money and grain from the six counties to outsiders in the future. In this case, we will not suffer a great loss. ”

"Yes, that's the way it is, he definitely can't be the lord of the six counties." Those who shouted and shouted to kill also nodded their heads in agreement.

"If Wang Mang doesn't leave Yuzhou, then don't meddle in the political affairs of the six counties of Yuzhou. If we leave, then we have nothing to say. Otherwise, don't blame me for not listening to General Wang's orders. ”

"This..." Wang Ping was speechless and couldn't speak.

This kind of thing, she can't be the master, and she can't speak. Even Wang Xianzhi couldn't speak, and he couldn't be the master. These words must be spoken by Wang Mang himself.

When Wang Mang heard such a statement, he looked up to the sky and laughed three times, and said angrily: "Okay, good, good." I would have liked to illuminate the moon, but the bright moon shone on the ditch. ”

Until now, he still couldn't see the slightest abnormality in it.

At the moment, if these people have no support behind them, how can they dare to say such rebellious words here. They would only dare to do so if they had enough support, and the person who gave it was very prestigious.

For the person behind him, Wang Mang also had a rough guess in his heart. After all, there are only a few people in the six counties of Yuzhou who really have the highest prestige.

At this moment, he almost figured out the whole reason, and said coldly: "This matter will also wait until two months later, and I should give an accurate answer." Okay, you can all disperse first, and don't make any more trouble.

Also, give me a warning to arrest all seven beaters and detain them for two months. If someone commits it again, they will not be spared. Different opinions can be raised, so to speak, but it is strictly forbidden to bully and suppress others. ”

After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left the court angrily.

The troublemakers smiled coldly, not impressed, but very happy in their hearts.

Wang Hai and Wang Ping followed behind Wang Mang and came to the living room together.

When the three of them sat down, Wang Hai smiled and said, "Cousin, don't be angry, those people are just rude and reckless people who don't know the overall situation." When you are angry with them, do you not make yourself unhappy in vain? I know there are one or two good places, go, I'll take you to see it, and have a good time first. After two days, it's not too late for us to go back. ”

Wang Ping felt a little guilty in her heart, and felt that Wang Hai secretly used this kind of trick to force Wang Mang to seize power, and lost her identity a little, so she also spoke: "Cousin, my brother is right. Jingyan is taken care of by the eldest mother, so it doesn't matter. Let's go shopping first, and by the way, let's move a little bit to bring Jingyan to the west. The province hurriedly went back empty-handed, and it didn't seem like a thing. ”

Wang Mang squinted at the two of them, had a plan in his heart, and nodded: "It's okay, cousin, cousin, then you will lead the way." ”

"Hahaha, we are a family, why are you so polite?" Wang Hai laughed, drank two teas, and said a few words to the city lord Zheng Zhonglun, and led Wang Mang and Wang Ping towards the surrounding cities.

Zheng Zhonglun listened to the order and sent a messenger to report the case to Wang Xianzhi and explain the situation.
