Chapter 6: The Great Purge
Taiwei's Mansion is still lively, but Chengdudu is not calm.
Qin Mansion, Qin Mansion sat silently on the Hu bed, groping for the armrest of the Hu bed, with a bit of gloom and amazement in his eyes, the person sent to assassinate has not come back yet, Qin Mi knows that things are not good.
He did not go to the palace to seek refuge like Ren An, because he knew very well that Liu Wei was not capable of sheltering them.
To be honest, in all fairness, he is not disgusted with Ye Zhao, since Ye Zhao entered Shu, the changes in Shu can be seen, follow this lord, with his talent, the future will not be too bad, Ye Zhao employs people, never sticks to a family or a poor family, as long as he has the ability and is willing to do things, Ye Zhao will give him a chance.
From this point of view alone, Ye Zhao meets the conditions of a master whether he is employing people or managing government.
But Qin Mi has his own family, the Qin family has been a Wang clan in Shu since the pre-Qin period, Ye Zhao is good to Qin Mi, but the Qin family has gradually declined as Ye Zhao has a solid foundation in Shu, which is not something that Qin Mi can level by being reused.
What's more, with Ye Zhao's current ruling policy, the Qin family will continue to decline until it reaches a balance point, the balance point allowed by Ye Zhao, it will stop, at that time, the Qin family is no longer a big clan in Shuzhong, but like many upstarts, in fact, Ye Zhao didn't give anything to those people, but the policy is to make those upstarts continue to grow.
For example, Guan Yu now has a family, as well as Zhang Ren and Huang Quan; Gan Ning's family is probably near that equilibrium point, so there won't be too many ups and downs, and Guan Yu, Zhang Ren, Huang Quan, and even those who followed Ye Zhao earlier are basically from humble beginnings, starting from scratch, even if Ye Zhao doesn't do anything, it will make these people feel that they are constantly getting better with Ye Zhao.
There are many similar people, this is a balance of psychological satisfaction and dissatisfaction, after all, it is the few people who are dissatisfied, and the benefits that Ye Zhao gets from their few people can make most people feel satisfied, and the decline of the Qin family will also cause pressure on Qin Mi, he has many clansmen who can no longer rely on the Qin family to survive, and can only make a living by themselves, and among a big clan, there are always some people who cannot make a living by themselves, but have a lot of power in the clan, the attitude of these people, plus the interaction between several old families, It will also give birth to a heart of hatred and hatred.
Qin Mi didn't want to go against Ye Zhao, but he was not just a courtier, he was also the pillar of a family, he had to think about the family, even if he knew that Ye Zhao was actually more conducive to the stability of Shuzhong by doing so.
Therefore, he promised Zhang Song, and during Ye Zhao's departure, he secretly contacted like-minded people, ready to fight back, regain the rights of Shuzhong, and pull Shuzhong back to the most correct path for them, although this road may not be right for the entire Shuzhong, but the family and the country, there is a home first, and then there is a country.
It's just the result...... It seems that there was a failure, and as for the consequences of failure......
"Bang~"
As one of the few families in the Chengdu/Capital City that still has an independent mansion, the door of the Qin family was rudely slammed open, and a guard rushed in and surrounded the Qin family inside and out.
Soon, Qin Mi's study was opened, and a favored figure appeared at the door, staring at Qin Mi with indifferent eyes, hugging his fists and saying, "Mr. Zile, please go to the law department with me." ”
"No need!" Qin Mi sighed, a trace of green blood stains overflowed from the corner of his mouth, before that, after noticing that something was wrong, he had already taken poison, he knew what he was going to face, the Ministry of Law, as a department specializing in supervising officials, had the evidence of most officials' crimes, after all, even if Ye Zhao was very strict with the supervision of officials, it was impossible to cut everyone down, these criminal evidences were useless most of the time, but when needed, any person's filing in the Ministry of Law was enough to destroy him and even the entire family.
Qin Mi hopes that he can die with dignity, and at the same time, he also hopes that he will let Ye Zhao let the Qin family go with his death, although even so, the decline of the Qin family has become inevitable, but he can't let the Qin family lose in his own hands.
"Why bother?" Man Zhong looked at Qin Mi, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "The lord attaches great importance to Zile, you follow me to see the lord, there may not be no way to live." ”
"Ran Mi...... But I have no shame to face the lord again, please Berning tell the lord on my behalf, if there is an afterlife, Mi will be loyal to the lord again, as for this life, Mi only hopes to be able to keep his family! Qin Mi smiled calmly.
"Zile's words, I will tell the lord everything, as for the result...... "Man Zhong didn't continue, Qin Mi was already angry.
sighed slightly, and said to the left and right: "The autopsy will be put into the coffin, and Qin Mi will be blocked and wait for it to fall." ”
"Whoa!"
The servants and maidservants of the Qin family were all driven away, and at the same time, Qin Mi was also sealed.
After bowing to Qin Mi's main gate, Man Zhong got up and left quickly with a group of law guards, today's matter is not so simple.
……
In the Taiwei Mansion, the Queen Mother ordered someone to send a congratulatory gift, and the soldiers gave Ren Hongchang a position as a female official, as Diao Chan in the palace......
After Ye Zhao sent Ren Hongchang into the new house, he didn't stay long, but went straight to the study, where Zhang Su was already waiting.
"Lord, are you looking for me?" Zhang Su looked at Ye Zhao with some doubts, today is Ye Zhao's happy day
"These things, learn about them." Ye Zhao nodded and handed an account book to Zhang Su.
"Whoa!" Zhang Su took the account book and looked at it, his face gradually becoming difficult to look at as the pages of the book turned.
In the booklet, it is recorded that in the past three years, Zhang Song has taken advantage of his position to secretly mobilize some resources of the Taiwei Mansion, secretly raise dead soldiers, and even clearly record the number of dead soldiers and the location of training, and the officials he secretly contacted.
"Lord...... This...... I don't know! Zhang Su knelt down in front of Ye Zhao with a puff, and said in horror, he has been busy with affairs in Shuzhong all these years, and rarely goes home, so he doesn't know if his biological brother has caused such a big mess for himself.
"If I don't believe you, the one who meets you now is not me, but full of favor!" Ye Zhao stretched out his hand to help Zhang Su up, and sighed: "Junqiao, this matter makes me very embarrassed!" ”
"I know what Junqiao has done for Shuzhong in the past three years, and I know that Junqiao is a loyal man, Zhang Song should have been executed, but he and you are brothers, if you kill, it will make you feel cold, but if you don't kill, how can the law stand?" Ye Zhao patted Zhang Su on the shoulder and said, "So, this matter is not prepared to be handed over to you to deal with, Xia Houlan!" ”
"In!" Xiahou Lan, who was guarding the door, came in and bowed to Ye Zhao.
"From now on, you listen to Zhang Su's order to solve this matter, no matter how Zhang Su executes, you just need to do it, no need to say more, this is my order!" Ye Zhao handed a command arrow to Xiahou Lan and said solemnly.
"The last general commands!" Xiahou Lan bowed, stood behind Zhang Su, and stopped talking.
"Lord...... Treat me like this, the minister doesn't know how to repay, only the liver and brain, in order to repay the lord's kindness, please rest assured, this matter will be handled impartially, never favoritism! Zhang Su's eyes were red, and he bowed to Ye Zhao again.
"How to handle it is your business, I won't care anymore, then you can let Zhang loose it, since I said that I will no longer care about this matter, I will never say a word more." Ye Zhao helped Zhang Su up and said with a smile.
"Whoa!" Zhang Su didn't say anything more, and after bowing to Ye Zhao, he turned around and left directly with Xiahou Lan.
"It's a little ominous to deal with these things on the big day of the lord." Drama Zhicai from the screen behind the dermis and also. smiled at Ye Zhao.
"Nanzhong has been decided, and we are about to set out on the expedition, and this lot of fat should also be cleaned up." Ye Zhao looked at Xi Zhicai with a smile and said, "How are the military funds, grain and grass prepared?" ”
"It's been mobilized." Xi Zhicai nodded and said.
"After this incident, when Yun Chang and the others come back, we can discuss the matter of sending troops, you and I have been away from the Central Plains for ten years, and it is time to go back and see those old friends." Ye Zhao looked at Xi Zhicai and smiled.
Ye Zhao left the study and came to the new room surrounded by everyone, Ren Hongchang sat on the bed with some apprehension, a festive red robe was hooked off by Ye Zhao's hand, satin-like skin, under the bright candlelight in the room, extremely moving, this night is innumerable romance, endless spring.
And in Chengdu/Du, this night is not peaceful, Lu Bu, who rarely appears in the sight of the people on weekdays, is a large-scale dispatch tonight, an official's home was brutally Chuangkai, large and small officials were arrested one by one, or killed on the spot, at the same time Zhang Su Mansion, Zhang Song has been brought over by five flowers, in this Chengdu/Du, once the law department and the city defense army are dispatched, it also represents their plan that has not yet begun, it was rudely interrupted, not only the plan was stillborn, in the past three years, Zhang Song and others secretly contacted a group of officials, was almost wiped out by Ye Zhao, and the students in the academy quickly made up for it, which would not affect the operation of Shuzhong at all.
Ye Zhaozhi Shu has been in Shu for nearly ten years, and the talent reserve has formed a cycle, and there will be more and more scholars in the future, and the demand for scholars is no longer large.
"Zhang Junqiao, do you know what you're doing!?" Zhang Song looked at his brother and roared angrily.
"Enforce the law impartially!" Zhang Su looked at Zhang Song's ugly face, and said with a calm face: "Don't think about business, don't do serious things with your group of friends every day, but only know how to criticize the lord, if it weren't for the lord's kindness, today, I'm afraid the entire Zhang family will be imprisoned with you." ”
"You fool!" Zhang Song was tied up by five flowers, and roared: "Then how Ye Zhao treated us and other scholars, do you remember?" ”
"Enforce the law impartially." Zhang Su looked at Zhang Song and sighed: "What is the fault of the lord, why do you treat the lord like this?" ”
"Is there or is it faulty?" Zhang Song looked at Zhang Su, suddenly smiled, shook his head and sighed: "If it weren't for that Ye Zhao, why would you and my brother end up in the field today!" How many people are left in the Zhang family now? ”
"The lord doesn't need it, it's just that they are incompetent!" Zhang Su frowned.
"Ha~" Zhang Song suddenly lost the desire to communicate, the two sides have not been in the same world for a long time, and the ideas are destined to be difficult to resonate, and it is no different to say more, and said sharply: "Then I don't know how my brother wants to deal with me?" ”
"Yilu!" Zhang Su closed his eyes and said painfully.
"You're crazy!" Zhang Song's face changed, if it was according to the law, what he had done in the past three years would not be enough to cut off ten heads.
"Stay!" Zhang Su suddenly felt a little heartache, and waved his hand unrelentingly.
"Whoa!" Xia Houlan, who had been staying outside the door, came in and dragged Zhang Song, who was like a dead dog, away......
