Chapter 596: The Kong Family Changes
p
Since March, King Yong has been working step by step and constantly infringing on the interests of the family.
In desperation, an undercurrent is quietly forming with the Confucian family in Lu County and the Xiahou family in Qian County as the core.
One night, the Confucian family's mansion in Qufu City was brightly lit, and carriages were parked in front of the mansion.
In the house, dozens of powerful family owners from Qian County, Lu County, Peiguo and other places gathered together.
Since King Yong came to Luoyang, the status of the family has been getting worse day by day, and because of the strict surveillance of Hexi, it is rare to see the wealthy family get together.
After everyone arrived, Kong Wei, the head of the Kong family, pressed his hands and signaled everyone to be quiet.
"I brought everyone together today to discuss a big matter with you."
"As we all know, King Yong is pressing forward step by step at the moment."
"The old man doesn't hide it from everyone, King Yong sent someone over a few days ago."
"Ask the Confucian family to take the lead in donating fields, disbanding the tribes, and implementing the equalization system in Lu County."
As soon as Kong Wei's words fell, the hall suddenly exploded, and all kinds of shouts and curses rose to the sky.
"King Yong deceives people too much~!"
"I'll welcome him into the Central Plains, not to mention that there is merit and hard work, right?!"
"I didn't expect him to turn his face and deny people as soon as he came, and he wanted to cut me and other families."
"What Wise Divine Martial Arts?! Phew! The old man is right to see that he is tyrannical. ”
"From ancient times to the present, which prince will be like the upper and lower parts of Hexi, and be the enemy of the Gongqing family?!"
"The old man reminded me a long time ago that he shouldn't have let the Hexi Army go east in the first place."
Everyone was gossipy, angry, and condemned Wei Shuo one after another.
It wasn't until a cup of tea that everyone quieted down again.
"Everyone, be quiet and listen to the old man."
"I brought everyone here today to discuss the way forward."
"Are you willing to be a lackey of King Yong's family like the Zheng family in Xingyang, or are you willing to fight to the death for the interests of the family?"
"If everyone is willing to live in secret, the old man should immediately surrender to Luoyang and ask King Yong to send someone over to clear the land."
Facing Kong Wei's question, the scene fell silent, and no one dared to say anything.
Don't look at everyone's loud voices just now, in fact, there are not many dares to directly oppose Hexi.
After all, now that King Yong is in full swing, it will definitely take great courage to oppose him.
At this moment, Xiahou Ling received Kong Wei's signal and immediately stood up.
"Humph! The old man would rather die under the knife and gun than live as humiliated as he is now. ”
"That King Yong's mind is really vicious, today is to take away my land and property, who knows what other calculations will be made tomorrow?"
"Instead of waiting for the future, it's better to give it a go today."
"Yes...... But King Yong is powerful, what are we going to do against him? Someone asked with little confidence.
Suddenly, someone at the door snorted coldly: "What if you add General Ben?" ”
Everyone followed the sound and looked back, only to see a majestic man accompanied by two henchmen into the lobby.
An acquaintance recognized the face of the person and stood up excitedly.
But I saw the big man walk to the middle, and bowed his hand to everyone: "Under Liu Yu, I took the liberty to visit, please forgive the heads of the family." ”
This sentence immediately caused an uproar at the scene, and everyone couldn't believe that the person who came was actually the famous Liu Yu.
Although Liu Yu is not as famous as King Yong, he is also one of today's heroes, especially in Jiangdong.
Suddenly, the heads of the families felt that the dark clouds above their heads had dispersed, and there seemed to be light in front of them.
Everyone stepped forward to flatter Liu Yu and praised Liu Yu as a flower.
But how do everyone know, don't look at Liu Yu with a smile on his face, but he sneered at the bottom of his center.
Kong Wei and Xiahou Ling saw that the crowd was angry, and they couldn't help but feel that it was very wise to invite Liu Yu here.
It turned out that as early as before the party, the two were worried that everyone would not dare to oppose Hexi, so they invited Liu Yu to attend the party.
And Liu Yu had already made up his mind to cut a knife from the family, so he gladly accepted the invitation.
Don't say that Liu Yu is insidious, it's really that he doesn't like the Kong family and the Xiahou family to make trouble at all.
Instead of offending King Yong by blocking the car with his mantis arm, it is better to take the opportunity to seek some benefits for himself.
You must know that these families are all very rich, as long as they can get a little benefit, it is enough for Liu Yu to solve big problems.
Kong Wei put Liu Yu in the first place on the right, glanced at everyone happily, and said with great ambition: "What? Now everyone has no questions, right? ”
Next, the three families of Peiluzhen quickly formed an alliance and plotted to rebel against Hexi.
Everyone decided to secretly assemble the family in Xuzhou and temporarily hand over to Xuzhou Mu Liu Yu to be in charge of the training.
When the time is ripe, the three families will issue a letter to the outside world, in the name of King Yong's persecution of the family, and raise an army to raise righteousness.
Originally, the families wanted to support Liu Yu as the leader of the alliance, but Liu Yu resolutely resigned on the grounds that he was from a poor family and lacked prestige.
As a last resort, everyone had no choice but to take Kong Wei as the leader of the alliance and Xiahou Ling as the deputy leader of the alliance, and prepare to swear to conquer Hexi.
A few days later, Liu Yu left Qufu with a large number of young men and money and went to Pengcheng.
On the way back to Pengcheng, Wei Yongzhi turned around and looked at the carriage full of goods, and couldn't help but be very satisfied with this trip to Qufu.
"Lord, you have gained a lot from this trip to Qufu."
"Not only did I get a lot of young people back, but I also got countless grains, grasses, and treasures for nothing."
"In this way, not only do you have the capital to train sailors, but you also have the needs to support the Northern Expedition of the imperial court."
"Hehe, the family's money is not coming from the right way, and if you don't take it for nothing, you won't take it."
"Regardless of it, this matter has just kicked off, you and I must not be careless, so as not to leak the news."
"My subordinates understand."
"It's just that what is the lord of King Yong's side going to say?"
"In two days, a certain will go to Luoyang to meet King Yong on the grounds of discussing the Northern Expedition, and then we will talk about it."
……
When Liu Yu left Qufu with a full harvest, Luoyang also received an urgent report from the scout.
In the evening, Cui Hao hurriedly came to the palace and met Wei Shuo leading someone to sort out official documents.
Wei Shuo heard footsteps outside the hall, and looked up just in time to see Cui Hao coming in.
Seeing that the other party was anxious, he couldn't help but smile and ask, "Could it be that where did the rebellion break out?" ”
Since the implementation of the uniform field system in Hexi, rebellions have occurred one after another in various parts of the Central Plains.
Those are the strong families, the homeless Qu Shuai, and the Buddhist monasteries have taken various measures in order to prevent the land from being cleared in Hexi.
Among them, the most frequent outbreaks were mass riots, and sometimes Wei Shuo could receive news three or five times a day.
But obviously Wei Shuo guessed wrong this time, but saw Cui Hao shake his head and said, "Yes and no!" ”
Wei Shuo put down the Chinese document in his hand, handed it to the secretaries to sort it out, walked up to Cui Hao and asked, "What is yes and no?" ”
"Recently, the scouts have been reporting constantly, saying that the families of Peilu and the three places are frequently meeting in the Confucius family in Qufu."
"The minister has just received a secret report, and even Xuzhou Mu Liu Yu also appeared in Qufu, and discussed with the family to leave after a few days."
Hearing this, Wei Shuo's brows furrowed, and he felt a little incomprehensible.
If it was not surprising to him that the family gathered to plot trouble, Liu Yu's involvement in it shocked him.
With his understanding of Liu Yu, he shouldn't be so unwise.
"How could Liu Yu get involved with the family? It shouldn't be! ”
Cui Hao also sighed: "How it is, the minister doesn't know!" ”
"It is really unwise to be involved in the conspiracy of the family with the wisdom of Liu Yu."
Wei Shuo sneered and said: "No matter who the other party is, as long as he dares to be an enemy of Hexi, he can't let it go." ”
"Lord, do you need to send someone to warn Liu Yu in advance?"
"If Liu Yu can be persuaded to stay out of the matter, it will undoubtedly be of great benefit to the future counterinsurgency."
Wei Shuo walked to the window with his hand in his hand and stared at the sunset in the west for a long time.
After a long time, he slowly spoke: "Don't startle the snakes first, continue to spy on them." ”
"Lone never believed that Liu Yu would be so unwise, maybe there was something inside, wait and see!"
"I'm afraid that I will let Liu Yu take the opportunity to sit big and affect the overall situation of the Central Plains."
"Nope! Before Lone and Huan Xuan fell out, Liu Yu would never dare to offend Hexi, otherwise he would definitely not be able to eat and walk around. ”
Speaking of this, Wei Shuo turned back to Cui Hao and smiled: "Forget it, let's not talk about it yet!" ”
"Good news has just come from Guanzhong, Maide has completely pacified Shu, and the former Shu King Qian Zong has surrendered to Hexi."
"Really? In this way, Shuzhong will be worry-free, and Nanzhong will also be just around the corner. ”
"Hahaha, Bo Yuan is wise, Nanzhong has been pacified."
When Cui Hao read the military report transferred from Guanzhong, he knew that Wang Maide had recovered the seven counties of Nanzhong, and he immediately became excited.
Although Nanzhong is a barbarian and remote place, it has been regarded as its own territory by the Central Plains Dynasty since Prime Minister Zhuge set up a county to govern the county.
"My lord, please immediately implement the land reform and return to the stream of Nanzhong, so as to completely stabilize the seven counties of Nanzhong."
"Well, what Bo Yuan said is very true!"
"Gu has written a letter to the cabinet, so that Tiye, Zhong Xuan and others can coordinate the naturalization of Nanzhong."
