As for the treatment of Lu Peng's army, Youzhou, which is now in financial distress, cannot be supplied, that is to say, the officials who are not given by the empty head will give you a big deal, but the actual finances are still self-supporting.

For this result, Lu Peng already knew about the loss, and he was not surprised, and once again expressed his loyalty to the country and did not care about the treatment, Lu Peng suddenly said: "When the subordinates came down, they were passing by a family fortress, and the local people redressed their grievances to the last general, saying that the Zhao family not only killed slaves indiscriminately, but also seemed to have frequent contacts with the Yellow Turban remnants of the Black Mountain thieves. ”

Hearing such a high-sounding reason for rectifying people, Liu Yan's eyes lit up at that time.

Officials in various places have suffered from the bullying of the big families in various places, not only have they forcibly occupied the people's land and displaced the people, which has become the root of the turmoil, but most importantly, they have also forced tenants to depend on them, making the government's finances more and more depleted.

In particular, the clan family has accumulated hundreds of years of power and connections, and they don't take local officials into account at all, and some local officials take office, and they first need to visit the local family family, called the official guard, do you say that these officials can have a good impression of the local family?

It's just that due to the national situation, he also doesn't have the strength to fight with those giants, so he can only swallow his anger. Especially this Zhao family, relying on a few court officials in the original family, turned out to ignore himself even more, not only arrogant, but also not in his eyes, this is the New Year, and I don't see him send a slave to send even a penny of money, this is indeed bearable, which is unbearable.

And the most important point is that Liu Yan has already heard that because the Zhao family in Youzhou is dissatisfied with Liu Yan's attitude towards the family, they have begun to instruct the children of the court to impeach Liu Yan.

This is a very serious matter, Liu Yan's ambition is actually very big, he is no longer satisfied with a right to be too limited, he is eager for greater rights, to be a prince, but at this critical time, the Zhao family actually made a stumbling block for himself, in case the emperor listened, then everything about himself would become a dream, how could this not make Liu Yan hate the Zhao family to the bone?

At this time, Lu Peng suddenly brought this forward, how could he not make Liu Yan happy at that time, he originally did not have the strength to move those wealthy families, but now he has.

Originally, I could only watch the countless wealth of those wealthy families have nothing to do with me, but now I can.

At this time of financial embarrassment, Lu Peng proposed this righteous and strict matter, which proves that Lu Peng wants to do something to the Zhao family.

This is good, now Liu Yan is simply eager to raise his feet in agreement.

As for the consequences, if Lu Peng destroys the Zhao family, he can establish his authority among the local Youzhou clans, and he will no longer be bullied by those wealthy clans, and he can become the real master of Youzhou, and he can also divert the attention of those Zhao bastards in the court, and no longer target himself, at the same time, if he destroys the Zhao family, he can also make up for his own finances, and the most important thing is that there is nothing left in this.

Once the Hao clan opposes it, then if he can't bear it, then he can completely throw this subordinate out of the pot.

How can such a deal be cost-effective, so Liu Yan asked very seriously: "Do you have any evidence in your hands?" If there is, the official will strictly handle it. ”

Evidence? If you want to trap a person, the evidence is not yet hand-caught, and another one, now that you look at the world, the criminal records of the wealthy families are not obvious there, but they are just things that you can't catch.

Lu Peng said with certainty: "The evidence is, after the general has searched it, of course it will be there." "The ambition of this pit man is not hidden at all, and he obviously told Liu Yan that as long as I can get money to raise soldiers, I dare to fabricate charges or anything.

Of course, this kind of loyalty was greatly appreciated by Liu Yan, so he decided that when there was solid evidence, you Lu Peng could send troops to search the Zhao family, of course, the dog's legs contributed, and he couldn't help but say: "If the Zhao family doesn't cooperate, then, you can completely solve it by force, and Ben Taishou will make the decision for you at that time." ”

In fact, this expression is equivalent to just comforting and not expressing, but Lu Peng is still happy to accept the order, and he also needs money to raise soldiers by himself.

At this time, Zou Jing opened his mouth to say something, but in the end, seeing that the old and the young were all iron-hearted, he finally shut up.

A few people talked about the future tasks of the army, and Lu Peng said goodbye to Taishou on the grounds that the army had just arrived and needed to restrain himself, and Liu Yan did not stay long, but gave a few words of encouragement, and ordered Guan to send it out, and then everyone dispersed.

When he came to arrange his own military camp, he saw Xu Jie and Xi Zhen Zhang Yan, and told the three of them about their official positions and other issues, and the three of them were overjoyed and thanked Lu Peng for cultivating, and Lu Peng said: "A little Sima, just let you wait so happy, and when you do it bigger in the future, don't you fly to the sky?" Or look at the army honestly, don't make trouble at this time, I'll go to the captain's house for a while now, and then come back I have something important to discuss. ”

Zou Jing is a big official in Youzhou, the mansion is vast, he also works in the front, and lives in the back, Lu Peng took the servant to carry two boxes of gifts to see, and the door has already been taken care of, so he let Lu Peng into the backyard study without slackening.

Zou Jing's study is far from Liu Yan's, the name is the study, in fact, it is simply an arsenal, and all kinds of favorite weapons are placed all over the wall, which is also consistent with his identity, especially at that time, the Han Dynasty, the style of martial arts is still there, and even the scholars and scholars travel with swords, not to mention the dignified captain.

Lu Peng came in, but saw Zou Jing looking at him with a gloomy face and said nothing.

Lu Peng knew that he didn't know how to offend this guy at the beginning, this guy always had to break his dog's legs, and it was good if he didn't blast it out directly this time, he didn't think that Zou Jing could give him a good face at all.

The retinue carried two chests and opened them, filled with two chests of gold.

For Liu Yan, who is vassally elegant, you have to send some treasures and antiques, and with Zou Jing, a military general, you have to go straight and play vassal elegance, which is simply to find fault with yourself.

As a result, Zou Jing didn't even glance at the gold, and said in a deep voice with a cold face: "You hairy bastard, I'll break your dog's leg now." ”

Gotcha, here it is again, but fortunately, this guy always talks about it, and he really hasn't touched it.
