Chapter 32 Do you take it now?
"Your Highness! If you really insist on going your own way, then step on my white cypress!! ”
As soon as the words came out, the whole house was shocked!
All the Qinchuan clans, civil and military officials, all looked at the old figure in disbelief!
Even Zhao Zheng, the king of Qin, couldn't help but froze suddenly, staring at the patriarch of the Bai clan, whose hair was white, as if he had put life and death out of the way, but he was speechless for a while, and he felt a little helpless!
He really didn't expect such a scene, this Bai Bai would act so fiercely, he would rather give his life on the spot than have the slightest room for manoeuvre!
He is obviously forcing each other with death, and he is determined by death!
He Bai clan will never agree to any tax reform policy of apportioning the land into the mu!!
"Exactly! If His Highness wants to force such an unreasonable strategy in Qinchuan! It also has to be from me Xue Gui...... Step on it!! ”
Xue Gui, the patriarch of the Xue clan who was pardoned by Zhao Zheng, the king of Qin, and could not kneel, also stood up at this time, and with the support of the maid beside him, his angry beard shook straight away, and said on the spot!
Who knew that when Zhao Zheng, the king of Qin, heard this, he didn't laugh angrily, and immediately raised his head and laughed!
"Hahaha! Do you think that you are forced to die...... Can we force this king to retract his fate?! ”
Zhao Zheng smiled and shook his head repeatedly, how could he change his mind because of the lives of one or two old men?
How could such an eternal plan as a plan to be divided into acres be stopped because of the hard work of one person and two people, one clan and two clans?!
What's more, now, how can he, King of Qin, Zhao Zheng, have a way out? !
"That's it...... It's really ridiculous! ”
Zhao Zheng waved his hand again and again with a smile, knowing that there was no possibility of good things today, and at the moment he was in his heart, but he suddenly picked up the pottery bowl in the case, "Bang! ' fell into the courtyard with a bang, and it was split apart in an instant!
Almost at the moment when the pottery bowl fell to the ground, I only heard a vibration in the courtyard, and the sound of the 'boom' armor running was getting closer and closer!
In the blink of an eye, I saw hundreds of heavily armed and iron-clad Praetorian Guards rushing into the hall!
"This!"
In the panicked look of everyone, hundreds of Praetorian Guards immediately surrounded the Qinchuan officials and the Hanyang clan in the hall, and looked directly at everyone in the hall without the slightest emotion!
The sword and bow in his hand are even more ready to go, just wait for King Qin's order, and he can go straight to the bloody spot on the spot!!
"Your Highness! Your Highness! Don't be impulsive, Your Highness!! ”
Taishou Yaofei, who has been watching from the wall and watching the show quietly, finally panicked when he saw this situation, and hurriedly kowtowed, and persuaded loudly on the spot!
"Everyone in the hall is the pillar of Qinchuan, Your Highness! You can't fight each other with swords, Your Highness! Never! Never, Your Highness!! ”
Zhao Zheng just laughed when he heard this, and asked Taishou with a playful face.
"Oh? But this king regards Zhongqing as a humerus, and he discusses everything with everyone, but Zhongqing is often forced to die, but what does it mean? Could it be ...... Is it to deceive the king of this young age?! ”
In the end, Zhao Zheng's tone aggravated, and he looked at Taishou Yaofei like an unkind look!
That look seems to be too guarded by Yaofei's next words, and if he is not careful, he will cause death!!
"Wronged, Your Highness! Although His Royal Highness is still young, he is thoughtful and old-fashioned, and he cares about the people of Qinchuan, and everyone admires it! Otherwise...... How could they be willing to take the initiative to donate food?! ”
Yaofei suddenly shouted that he was wronged, and hurriedly explained!
"Yes, Your Highness! Our admiration for His Highness is like a great river flowing, and it is simply gushing! ”
"Your Highness has been wronged! Wronged, Your Highness!! ”
"If we dare to despise Your Highness in the slightest, how can we do our best to cooperate with disaster relief, Your Highness?!"
At the time, everyone in the hall took the opportunity to kowtow, and surrounded by the surrounding armor soldiers, they looked panicked and showed their hearts again and again, indicating that they had no two hearts!
"Oh? That being the case...... Then why is this king kind and kind, and discussed with all Aiqing about the matter of apportioning the land, why did he disagree with each other, and he would be forced to die? ”
When Zhao Zheng heard this, his expression suddenly eased, and his tone softened, as if he had loosened up.
Seeing this situation, everyone in the hall was lighthearted, and hurriedly echoed!
"If that's not the case, Your Highness! What we mean is that taxation is the foundation of the country, and it cannot be easily changed! ”
"Yes, Your Highness! I thought this matter still needs to be considered in the long run! ”
"Your Highness, why don't you give some more time and discuss a compromise together!"
At this moment, no one dared to mention Fang Cai's words anymore, and submitted the matter to the capital to wait for His Majesty's holy ruling.
Otherwise, King Qin would be angry, and what should he do if he really came to the scene with blood? !
The only plan at the moment is only the word 'drag'!
Just drag it through tonight, and drag it past the heavily armed guards beside you!
All...... There's still room to turn around!
Otherwise, if you really die on the spot, what's the point?!
"Oh? Think about it in the long run......"
Zhao Zheng's slowly pacing figure suddenly froze, and his tone was hesitant, as if he was considering whether this move was feasible......
When everyone saw it in their eyes, their hearts couldn't help but relax, and they were about to strike while the iron was hot and persuade His Highness not to be anxious, but they only listened to His Royal Highness King Qin's words, and actually joked on the spot.
"But if the king is not willing to take a long-term view, he prefers to close the coffin tonight...... But how? ”
"This ......"
Everyone was stunned, and they all looked at each other, but no one dared to answer.
In such a situation, it is absolutely impossible to agree, but if you don't...... Who would dare to be the first to speak up and be that unpredictable bird?!
"Your Highness! Are you so determined...... Didn't you even take into account the feelings of our Qinchuan clan at all?! ”
Seeing that the hall was instantaneous, but there was no sound, Bai Bai, the patriarch of the Bai clan, had no choice but to speak again.
It's just that when he opened his mouth at this time, he didn't have the sense of fearlessness to die like Fang Cai, but he was full of tears, and his face was full of heartache and grievances!
After all, there was no armor soldier around just now, so he could naturally use his life as a force.
But now that the sword soldier is just on his neck, how dare he talk nonsense?!
King Qin was young, impulsive, moody, and in case of excitement, he really cut himself in two...... Isn't it all over!
In today's situation, the only way to do it is to sell miserably, or it can be done!
"Humph! I guess you wait for the Qinchuan clan to feel? The king is going to ask you! ”
Zhao Zheng suddenly heard this, but it was a rare abnormality, and he suddenly became furious!
"Who cares about the feelings of the people of Qinchuan?!"
"Who cares about the feelings of the people everywhere?!"
"Who cares about those who throw their own flesh and blood into the wilderness! How do these poor parents feel?! ”
The more Zhao Zheng spoke, the more angry he became, and he couldn't help but slap the table with a shocking sound!
Every now and then, the dead babies everywhere in those wilderness valleys seem to reappear again, vividly in front of their eyes, dripping with blood!!
"Huh? Who cares? Who cares?! ”
Qin King Zhao Zheng drank angrily, and immediately shocked the whole audience to kneel on the ground, and they all kowtowed, and no one dared to shoot his edge!
If you dare to talk more at this time, I'm afraid that you will have to die on the spot and end up in a different place!
"Ministers deserve death!!"
All the people prostrated their heads, and their mouths cried out for sin!
But in this situation, in the eyes of Zhao Zheng at this moment, he could only shake his head helplessly and smile bitterly.
Guilty or guilty?
How have you ever really known your sins?
It's just lip service, coaxing yourself as a young vassal king!
But if you really look at this king as only a teenager of 12, then it is really a big mistake!
Tonight, this king must forcibly demand that these Qinchuan clans all bow down and obediently support the tax reform!!
"Since they are all guilty...... Then tonight is the last chance for all Aiqing to atone for their sins! ”
King Qin's words suddenly made everyone in the audience tremble, and their hearts were shocked!
Expiation......
But how to atone for your sins?!
"Someone! Pen and ink! Let all the Qinchuan patriarchs write letters, sign and draw charges, explain the tax system, and send them to the clan immediately! Then send the tax collector to accompany you, count the acres of land, and execute it immediately! ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces changed greatly!
But it was the little Jiujiu who had just procrastinated the words, and in an instant, between the words of His Royal Highness King Qin, it disappeared and disappeared!
Who would have thought that His Royal Highness the King of Qin would be so decisive, ordering the armor to force everyone, write a handwritten letter on the spot, and then send it to the clan, and immediately implement the latest tax system!
In this way, there is no room at all, and we have to push forward this tax reform!!
When everyone faced the shoehorned into their hands by the armor, the contents had already been written, the seals had been stamped, and the tax reform bamboo slips that could be implemented immediately as long as the patriarchs signed the daimyo, they couldn't help but tremble with their hands, and they didn't know what to do for a while!
Such an outrageous and ridiculous tax policy!
Such a simple book of loss of power and humiliation!
But how can the patriarchs sign their names with peace of mind?!
If you really sign this article, you will definitely become a sinner for the ages who are scolded by the clans!!
Therefore, even though this ink has already been prepared, everyone is distracted in the face of this heavy tax reform bamboo slip in their hands, and no one has signed it.
This situation was seen in Zhao Zheng's eyes, but he couldn't help but laugh, and even urged him repeatedly.
"Everyone's Aiqing...... Why don't you sign it quickly, but what are you waiting for? ”
As soon as the words fell, I only heard the armor soldiers in the hall draw their swords at the same time!
'Bang! ’
Suddenly, the entire hall was filled with this terrifying sound of drawing a sword!
One after another, endlessly!
"Huh?"
In this solemn atmosphere, Zhao Zhengmeng slapped the table case and asked again!
"Your Highness! Forgive me for the Bai ......"
At this moment, under the continuous questioning of His Royal Highness King Qin without a chance to breathe, the patriarch of the Bai clan finally couldn't bear it anymore, but he immediately threw away the simple book and said loudly angrily!
"I can't sign such a book of humiliation!!"
"And my Xue clan! But I can't do that!! ”
Immediately after, there was also Xue Gui, the patriarch of the Xue clan, who also slammed Jianshu, and would rather die than obey!
"And my Huang clan!"
"And my Li clan!"
"And my royal family!"
"Forgive me for not being able to sign such a book of loss of power and humiliation!!"
At the beginning of this, it was like an order, and suddenly three more patriarchs threw the book on the spot, but they swore to death and could not sign such a humiliating book!!
"Oh? What does it mean...... Is it a policy to oppose this tax reform? ”
Who knew that Zhao Zheng, the king of Qin, suddenly heard this situation, and was not annoyed or angry at all, but asked in public as expected.
"Not bad! Such a tax reform law! But it's unheard of and ridiculous!! ”
"Look at Kyushu! How could there ever be such a harsh tax system?! ”
"I can't wait! I'm going to play the court! I respectfully request Your Majesty's Holy Judgment!! ”
Since they have all thrown their books and tore their faces in public, the patriarch of the five clans who came forward naturally no longer cares about others, but the sarcasm in his words is not disguised at all, and he even bluntly said that he wants to play the court and join the king of Qin!
"Hahahaha! Are you waiting? This king never thought that in this Qinchuan fiefdom...... But it doesn't even work for the king to speak? ”
Unexpectedly, when Zhao Zheng, the king of Qin, suddenly heard such disrespectful words, he was still not impatient, but smiled as usual, as if he wanted to reason with the clans.
"Since you Aiqing is not convinced, then the king will use his own method to let you obey!"
Zhao Zheng smiled silently after speaking, but he immediately clapped his hands and said in public without hurrying.
"Someone! Bring the five patriarchs down and convince them well! ”
"Whoa!"
In an instant, five armor soldiers stepped forward from all sides, one by one, like an eagle catching a chicken, lifting the five old men with white hair into the air and dragging them straight to the back of the hall.
"Your Highness! What does this mean? What does that mean?! ”
"Zhao Zheng! You, you, you, you! Do you know what you're doing?! ”
"King Zhao Zheng of Qin! You haven't even grown your hair! Let the old man tell you! You're playing with fire and setting yourself on fire! Playing with fire and setting yourself on fire!! ”
"Your Highness spares your life! Your Highness spares your life!! ”
"Your Highness! I'll sign! I'll sign it now! Please spare my life! Spare my life!! ”
In an instant, the entire hall was suddenly filled with the angry scolding, scolding, forgiveness, and crying of the five patriarchs!
Such a scene made everyone in the audience frightened and frightened!!
However, Zhao Zheng, the king of Qin, who was on the throne, turned a deaf ear in the face of such a chaotic situation, as if he had never heard it, but sat back in the case leisurely, but he still had the leisure to taste two mouthfuls of dim sum!
"Ah~!"
At this moment, I suddenly heard several screams behind the hall, and everyone in the hall was weak and pale!!
After a while, five bloody human heads were presented in a tray, and then presented in front of His Royal Highness King Qin, and placed in front of all the officials of the clan who were kneeling on the ground!
The frightened eyes that opened in disbelief, the twisted lips that opened in panic, the dark red blood that flowed like a pungent nose......
In such a scene, countless people were shocked and sat on the ground, all of them showing fear and horror!!
And His Royal Highness King Qin slowly paced forward with his face as usual, looking at the five blood-colored heads that had already condensed and asked with a smile.
"So...... Do you take it now? ”
……
"Emperor Qian, this person, ruthless, cold-blooded and unscrupulous!
The viciousness of his methods, the cruelty of his punishment, and the narrowness of his heart are outrageous!
Alas! Such a person with a good nature and the anger of people and gods, but because of a coincidence, he stole a big position, which is really a hatred for the ages! ”
