Above the hall of the inn, the clansmen of the Zheng family gathered together, Zheng Shanguo line, Zheng Shanyuan line, Zheng Jibo line, etc. gathered in the hall, these dozens of people are the main figures of the Zheng family, and the Zheng family in Xingyang is under the control of these people.

"The current situation is in front of everyone, don't think about the fields in Xingyang, but the land in Hebei and Youzhou can still be fought for, this million hectares of land is related to the glory of our Xingyang Zheng family, with this million hectares of land, my Xingyang Zheng family is only three or five years, and can become the head of the Shandong family again, but today's son is famous for the world family land shall not exceed 10,000 hectares. My Zheng family in Xingyang has a population of tens of thousands, if it is distributed to each of them, how much will be left? The key is that the rest of the land must also be distributed to other people, and the land that my Xingyang Zheng family spent countless efforts to get can't be so plainly good for the imperial court, so this time the old man came to ask you to discuss, how should this matter be good? ”

Zheng Shanguo's words are very provocative, although a lot of the Zheng family's land in Xingyang was forcibly occupied, but there are also some normal transactions, although the other party suffers losses in this transaction, but it also paid real money, is it not possible to return it to the court like this? The Zheng family was naturally unwilling.

"This is an order from the imperial court, patriarch, if we forcibly block it, I'm afraid the imperial court won't be able to explain it." An old man of the Zheng clan said, his face still showed fear, and said: "I, the Zheng clan in Xingyang, abandoned the imperial court and supported the Li clan in Longxi, forcing the imperial court to throw away everything in Xingyang that attacked my Xingyang sect. If we disobey the orders of the imperial court again this time, if we don't get it right, our losses will be even greater! The clan elder didn't say anything serious, but everyone still heard it. Death may be what it means.

"Could it be that His Majesty the Emperor still dares to destroy my Xingyang Zheng clan? That's called punishment without teaching, and all the families in the world will oppose him. A middle-aged man stood up and said loudly, he is Zheng Shanguo's son Zheng Anshi, although he is a middle-aged man, but he is magnificent, everyone's background is different, open and close his mouth, it is a big truth, and everyone in the hall is speechless.

"His Majesty the Emperor is so wise and powerful, what he says without teaching and punishing is false. It's just that my Zheng clan really doesn't have any loopholes? Zheng Jizhong sighed and said: "My Zheng family has a lot of unfilial children, these people defile my Zheng family's style, if the court investigates it, my Zheng family's reputation in the government and the opposition will definitely be affected, at that time, the court came to move us, I'm afraid not many people will speak." Everyone in the hall listened and couldn't help but nod, this is the case with any family. There are always a few unfilial disciples who corrupt the family style. If there is still the imperial court behind the scenes, and Li Xin really destroys the Zheng family, I am afraid that not many people will oppose it.

Zheng Shanguo glanced at Zheng Jizhong. sneered in his heart, but he saw very clearly in his heart that Zheng Jizhong was just a temptation that Zheng Jibo ran out, and he was a shameless person in the end. Relying on his daughter to follow Li Xin, thinking about seizing the position of patriarch is simply a joke.

"Dedicate the land. There is nothing in itself, after all, the imperial court is also for the sake of the world, so that those people who have no land can get land, but in this way, I have so many people in the Zheng family in Xingyang, how can I live if I have dedicated the land? Zheng Shanguo said in a very calm voice, as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing. After finishing speaking, he glanced at Zheng Jibo, and the meaning of his words was very clear, my words have been finished, and I am waiting for you to say.

"Although the patriarch's words are good, if he confronts the court because of this, I'm afraid it's not appropriate! To put it mildly, as long as Your Majesty is still here, no matter what happens in the world, there will be no trouble, and how long Your Majesty can govern, such a long time is enough to create a few more families. Zheng Jibo was also a little uneasy in his heart, but at this time he could only say it hard.

"The glory of the Zheng family for hundreds of years cannot be ruined in the hands of you and me." Zheng Shanguo snorted coldly and said, "Can't the Zheng family in Xingyang decline? What do you say? ”

Everyone in the hall also reacted at this time, and now it is the struggle between Zheng Shanguo and Zheng Jibo, one advocates being dependent on the imperial court, and the other is independent from the imperial court as before, maintaining the lofty bearing of the family. Either way, there are benefits and disadvantages.

For the Zheng family, the most serious thing is probably the change of patriarch, or Zheng Shanguo, or Zheng Jibo. There must be one of the two, who everyone wants to support, and for a while, there was a burst of discussion in the hall.

"The Divine Decree has arrived." At this time, there was a shrill voice outside, which suppressed the voices of everyone in the hall, and saw Song He leading a few attendants to walk in, Zheng Shanguo and the others were stunned, and hurriedly prepared the incense case, bowed to the ground, no matter what, no one dared to underestimate Li Xin's holy decree at this time.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, Zheng's Guanyin is beautiful, gentle and kind, into Jieyu, Zheng Jibo has meritorious service, and he is crowned Wu Shangong, Qin this!" Song He accepted the holy decree with a smile and glanced at everyone, showing a trace of disdain in his eyes, but when it fell on Zheng Jibo, he smiled and said, "Congratulations to Wu Shangong, congratulations to Wu Shangong." ”

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be." Zheng Jibo only knew what Li Xin's good news was at this time, which surprised him, but also rejoiced, and took the opportunity to receive the holy decree, and a bag of gold coins was submerged into Song He's sleeves.

"Your Majesty and Niangniang are still waiting, and the villain will leave first." The smile on Song He's face was even worse, following Li Xin's side, this bit of money is secondary, the key is to be able to marry the mother of the harem, this is the right reason.

"Okay, what a Wu Shangong." Zheng Shanguo's face was gloomy, and his eyes were full of viciousness.

Wushan Gong is just a county duke, not even a county duke, Zheng Shanguo is a county duke, but that is the edict of the previous dynasty, it is the edict of the Li family, and it has nothing to do with the new dynasty, Li Xin's holy decree came, although it was only a Zheng Jibo, and he did not have any expression for Zheng Shanguo, but this is what it means that Zheng Shanguo will be removed from the county duke title and become a commoner, and what qualifications does a commoner have to be in charge of the Zheng family in Xingyang? This is the fundamental purpose of Li Xin.

The people of the Zheng family all understood this, and they all looked at Zheng Jibo with strange eyes for a while, and finally fell on Zheng Shanguo, with a complicated look on their faces. Everyone believed that the Xingyang Zheng clan was split at the moment. (To be continued.) )
