Chapter 118: The Imperial Court Fights the Clan
Chapter 118: The Imperial Court Fights the Clan
In the afternoon of the same day, Fan Li returned to the political hall and immediately sent people to invite Wei Zheng, Bao Zheng, Wang Jing, Yan Zhenyong and others.
The tense atmosphere shrouded the court above, and some well-informed people vaguely sensed that something was going to happen in Datang!
In the spacious hall, Fan Li and others sat opposite each other, with solemn faces, discussing with each other, when encountering disagreements, noisy faces were red, and when they met with opinions, they talked and laughed.
As time slowly passed, there were fewer and fewer white pieces of paper in front of them, and they became decrees, white and black, dotted with dots, in the splendid rivers and mountains, setting up a series of kills.
In this game, it will turn into wind, blow away the flaws of Datang, turn it into rain, nourish Datang's livelihood, turn it into thunder, and eliminate the potential crisis of Datang!
In the next few days, with Xie Tianyi's order to cut off the business, Chang'an's goods continued to decrease, and the people in the city finally realized that they were not right, and began to buy goods in large quantities, and there was a phenomenon of looting.
For a time, Chang'an was in chaos!
"Report to the master, the trade route has been cut off, and the four counties near Chang'an, except for firewood, rice, oil and salt, no goods can flow into Chang'an!"
Qingyun Commercial Bank, a family member reported, let the whole room breathe a sigh of relief, and a smile couldn't help but appear in his eyes, this is the strength of the clan, a little move, you can control the business of the four counties.
"You can do the next step!"
"Price increase!"
Xie Tianyi, who was sitting above, took a sip of fragrant tea, his eyes flashed with wisdom, and he commanded lightly.
"Yes!"
With Xie Tianyi's order, the clan's strength quickly reversed, and the price of the looted goods suddenly increased, one or two times less, five or six times more, and the price increase was surprising.
The price rose, and the people had no financial resources to buy, but in order to make a living, there were many bad incidents, stealing, forcib, cheating, and even fighting, but these people, without exception, were all sent to the official uniform by the clan family, so that Chang'an should detain thousands of prisoners in Tianfu.
In the political hall, there is news coming back all the time, Fan Li looked at the information and said lightly:
"It turns out that the power of the clan is very strong, and the imperial court should also take action to stabilize the situation in Chang'an. ”
Wei Zheng and the others nodded, the reason why they didn't stop it immediately was mainly for two reasons, one was to find out the layout of the clan, and the other was to know the strength of the clan, so that they could not be defeated in a hundred battles!
"That's good, open the treasury, the four counties near Chang'an are under martial law!"
Fan Li saw that a few people had no opinions, so he began to implement the first step plan, which was as slow as spring rain, but had magical power.
On the same day, the treasury was opened, a large number of goods poured into the market, and the prisoners of Tianfu were acquitted, and the situation in Chang'an City was temporarily stabilized.
"Report to the master, the treasury is open, and the market is back to normal!"
The same place, the same person, the family reported again, which made most of the people in the house startled, and they all looked at Xie Tianyi.
Under the gaze, Xie Tianyi said lightly: "No food!"
"Yes!"
Cutting off food is the third plan he implements, once it fails, he will leave Chang'an, transfer the goal of the game, and put it in the entire Tang Kingdom!
Only, can he succeed?
The next day, a large outflow of grain from Chang'an, grain prices rose sharply, on the same day, the national warehouse was opened, grain entered the market, the price decreased rapidly, within one day, grain prices rose and fell, very thrilling!
At this time, the people of Chang'an also felt that something was wrong, in just a few days, too many unusual things had happened, there was a shortage of commodities, and food prices continued to rise and fall, all revealing a conspiracy, and it was definitely not a simple change.
The next day, a holy decree spread throughout Chang'an, and the content of the description on it surprised everyone.
"Tang Wang Ling, the clan is chaotic in the world, one is chaotic in Chang'an, two is chaotic in the commercial market, three is chaotic in the grain and grass, after the adjustment of the imperial court, the treasury enters the market, fortunately, there is no big problem, from now on, Chang'an will raise the price indiscriminately, behead, indiscriminately hoarding and acquiring people, beheading, indiscriminately destroying the balance of the commercial market, beheading!"
This holy decree undoubtedly played a major role in this game, and the shops that cooperated with the clan were all frightened, and all terminated their cooperation with the clan, Chang'an played against each other, and the clan was defeated.
In Qingyun Commercial Bank, the atmosphere was solemn, Xie Tianyi's face was gloomy, and he carefully thought about ways to break the situation, and finally found that in Chang'an, he was not the opponent of the imperial court at all.
After all, this is the base camp of the imperial court, the capital of a country, and what about the base camp of their clan? All of them are scattered in the thirteen counties, and the forces that can be mobilized are limited.
"Let's go, go to Zhongding County!"
Xie Tianyi said with certainty, and left Chang'an with the clan that day.
When the news of their departure reached Fan Li's ears, a smile of conspiracy appeared on his face, and he said to Bao Zheng: "The second step plan can be implemented!"
"Destroy the Clan Talent Plan!"
Soon, hundreds of blood-clothed guards left Chang'an and went to various counties and counties to arrest a large number of important clan officials, and then promoted a group of officials who had nothing to do with the clan to ensure the stability of the country.
The rights of each county are alternated, and the rapid transition is formed!
Of course, these Xie Tianyi didn't know that he was now trapped, the four counties near Chang'an were blocked, and all the official roads were garrisoned by troops, prohibiting people from other counties from entering and leaving, and he was one of them.
Seeing that the road to Zhongding County was blocked, Xie Tianyi felt a hint of ominousness in his heart, and he might be caught in the court's schemes.
With Xie Tianyi being trapped, a large number of officials were imprisoned, which made the strength of the clan drop to the extreme.
"It's time to close the net!"
In a very short period of time, the decree of heavy agriculture and suppression of commerce was issued, and due to the great loss of strength, the clan dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, so it could only be forced to accept the decree.
The political system based on agriculture and ending with commerce was formally formed, and at the same time, Fan Li issued a decree that people were divided into four classes, namely scholars, farmers, workers, and merchants!
Scholars are officials, agriculture is the foundation, work is the middle, and business is the end, and the clan that started with commercial development has suffered a great loss in strength and a great loss in reputation.
On the contrary, when the status of the peasants improved, they were very grateful to the imperial court, and their sense of belonging to the imperial court was stronger, and Li Tang, as the co-lord of the world, also benefited from the great benefits, and the achievement points and prestige points increased sharply, breaking through the maximum again.
A month and a half later, martial law was lifted in the four counties near Chang'an, Xie Tianyi rushed all the way back to Zhongding County, and when he got the situation during this time, his heart was full of anger, a mouthful of blood spit out, and he laughed on his back:
"The clan is falling, and all the people are one!"
"At the end of the Shang Dynasty, the country was in turmoil, and the country was strong in agriculture!"
"King Tang, the male lord also, the Ming monarch also!"
"I thank Tianyi for being blind and harming the clans of the world!"
After speaking, he fainted, he saw through Li Tang's behavior, but he underestimated the strength of the imperial court and overestimated the strength of the clan, it was this that made him fail quickly, quickly!
At this point, the confrontation between the imperial court and the clan, the final victory of the imperial court, the Tang Kingdom, for a long time, there will be no crisis of clan chaos in the country!
