Chapter 252: The Dust Settles (3)

"Uncle, may I ask Mr. Anshi?" Wang arched his hand and asked Wang Biaozhi respectfully, this short master is too low, and everyone has to be saluted. Wang Biaozhi is Wang Dao's nephew and Wang's uncle, and although Xie An is the same age as him, his uncle Xie Kun and father Xie Pei are both officials in the same dynasty as Wang's grandfather Wang Dao, and he is even more of a good alliance with Wang's uncle Wang Xizhi to form a good relationship between Jin and Qin, and this generation is also Wang's uncle.

"Do you have anything to do with Anshi?" Wang Biaozhi put down the scroll in his hand, stroked his silver-white beard and asked.

"Uncle Hui," the Wang family is a famous family in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and it is natural to use etiquette to teach and learn to pass on the family, so of course the rules on etiquette are not ordinary. Wang respectfully bent down to answer Wang Biaozhi, but in his heart he didn't think much of his uncle, and even a little dissatisfied, he was busy in order to protect the Jin family, but you important ministers are here leisurely.

"I found some information in other places, and I knew that more than 10,000 students and professors of Beifu Guoxue would go to the imperial court to ask for Zen, and students and professors from various states and states also went to the table to echo the matter of receiving Zen. And the three provinces of Beifu are even more arrogant, and the people in Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province are ready to knock on the table, please practice Zen. But what worries my nephew the most is that the news from the palace is that the Queen Mother and the Son of Heaven seem to have accepted their fate and are ready to give Jiuxi, how can this be child's play, so the nephew wants to talk to Mr. An Shi about one or two. ”

Since Zeng Hua moved the Son of Heaven, the Empress Dowager and the courtiers to Chang'an in the spring of the second year of Ningkang, the entire Jiangzuo court has existed in name only. Zeng Hua took all the power into his own hands in the name of supervising the country. First, the "Three Provinces of Beifu" was upgraded to three provinces, and together with the Privy Council, he directly took over the authority of the imperial court, and then Zeng Hua's Jing, Yang, Jiang, Guangzhou, Jiao, Ning, and various county guards and county orders took office under the escort of the local garrison in Beifu and took over the local power of Jiangzuo Prefecture.

In May of the second year of Ningkang, the Queen Mother, the Son of Heaven and a cadre of courtiers had just arrived in Chang'an, Zeng Hua took the Jiangzuo Prefectures as a vast area, and the above table divided Jingzhou into two with the Great River as the boundary. Jingzhou in the north. Xiangzhou in the south; North Yuzhou is still Yuzhou, governing Xuchang, South Yuzhou is changed to Luzhou, governing Lujiang, Huainan County, Lujiang County. Xuancheng County and Xincheng County were divided into their governance, so that the Jiangzuo region had two more states at once, and then under the pretext of rectifying the locality, purging the treacherous and rebellious, the Jiangzuo region was completely sorted out.

In October of the second year of Ningkang, at the invitation of the three provinces, the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother issued an edict to add Zeng Hua to Xiangguo. The first step in earnest is to begin meditation. During this time, Zeng Hua continued to reduce Jiangzuo's strength, and thousands of courtiers, celebrities, and thousands of descendants of Jiangzuo's great family all moved to Chang'an. The rest of the family and thousands of others moved to Luoyang. The family with the surname of overseas Chinese (after the Yongjia Rebellion, those who crossed the river in Wangnan, Jiangyou Shijia County were called overseas Chinese surnames) were ordered to separate their families and move back to their hometowns. The rest of the original families such as Jiangzuolu and Shen were greatly injured in the Wudoumi Rebellion, and the Beifu scattered and relocated them without much effort, and some of them moved north to Chang'an and Luoyang. Staying in the original place of residence was also ordered to separate the family. Separate counties. And a large number of terra nullius, tenants (masters) were killed in the rebellion, although they were coerced into rebellion. But legally, they are all "sinful") and the redeemed tribes and tenants were granted land and settled in peace. Because the wealthy families of Jiangzuo and the big and small families owe a sum of money to the merchants of Beifu, Beifu based on this, asked the surviving families to use the tribes and tenants as collateral to repay the arrears, and the Jiangzuo families and wealthy families also understood that the "economic stick" of Beifu was not vegetarian, but under the general trend, no one dared to squeak, so they had to obediently execute, and part of the arrears were less to be compensated with real money.

However, Zeng Hua will not force people to death, no matter how this wealthy family says, it is also a pillar of the world, especially in the Jiangzuo area. Zeng Hua ordered the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Commerce to liquidate the lands and tenants that the wealthy families were willing to "redeem" to the government, convert them into cash, and then count them into the shares of trading companies, factories, and mines set up in various parts of Jiangzuo. The ability of Beifu trading companies, factories and mines to make money Jiangzuo's wealthy families are in their eyes, and they used to want to enter their doors but couldn't, at most it was a cooperative relationship, and the big money was made in Beifu, and now it can be counted as "shares", which makes the Jiangzuo wealthy families embarrassed for a while.

If you accept the shares, you don't have to worry about the glory of this life, but unfortunately the fields and parts are gone; Don't accept it, just relying on that little land, there is no problem for a well-off family, but if you want to live the previous life, you don't have to think about it, sooner or later you will lose your family property. After hesitating for a while, these separated wealthy families finally figured out that they couldn't toast and not eat and drink, this era has changed, and they must follow the changes of this era, otherwise they will be abandoned by history and the times.

The strength of the Jiangzuo court was almost cleaned up, and the Beifu began to shout again, asking Zeng Hua to accept the Zen land, after all, the general trend of the world was already there. At the beginning, auspicious people who "changed dynasties" appeared one after another, but they were quickly repelled by Zeng Hua and others. As the supreme leader of the Holy Sect, Di Zenghua has no shortage of these "providences", and he is even more disdainful of these remaining tricks played by himself. The auspicious wind disappeared, but the "tide of public opinion" was surging. Chinese studies, state studies, local gentry and scholars, military officers, religious figures, celebrities and professors, have jointly signed a letter to invite Zeng Hua to accept Zen.

And in this tide, there are always some discordant voices, they are all die-hard members of the Jin family, they are like praying mantis fighting with chariots, although brave but full of tragedy. The king is one of them.

"An Shi was invited by Fang Ping (Yuan Fangping) to give a lecture at Yongzhou University." Wang Biaozhi replied lightly.

"Yongzhou University? Mr. An Shi went to Yongzhou University again? Wasn't it still at Chang'an University yesterday? I wonder if my uncle can tell my nephew when Mr. Anshi will come back? The king continued to ask depressedly.

"I guess it's going to be a few days." Wang Biaozhi glanced up at Wang and replied.

"Uncle, Beifu and King Qin are pressing forward step by step. We can't back down any longer. Wang hesitated, bent down and bowed his hand and said: "I also ask my uncle and Mr. An Shi to come forward, raise their arms, and gather people with lofty ideals in the world to jointly support Sheji." ”

Wang Biaozhi was silent for a long time, and finally asked, "Yuan Lin, do you know what I'm looking at these days?" ”

The king was stunned when he heard this, although his heart was full of dissatisfaction. But he still replied respectfully: "My nephew doesn't know." ”

"I've been reading the laws of the land where the North Mansion is located these days." Wang Biaozhi stood up from his desk. Desks and chairs are all unique to Beifu, but after several rumors, such as Wang Biaozhi, Jiangzuo celebrities have also become accustomed to using them.

"The laws enacted by Beifu include the Criminal Code and the Civil Code, the Government System Law, the Commercial Law, and the Education Law. There is the "Taxation Law", the "Degree Expenditure Auditing Law", the "Household Registration Law", the "Religious Affairs Law", the "Military Service Law", the "Information Secrecy Law", the "Di Newspaper Publishing Law", the "Post Law", the "Salt and Iron Monopoly Law", and the "Maritime Law". There is the "Law on the Prohibition of Water, Soil, Mountains and Forests", and there are more than 30 of them. Wang Biao slowly walked up to Wang and counted them one by one.

"So many laws. I can't figure out how the people of Jiangyou can stand it? Heavy canons and complicated laws, and in the end, it is not the corruption of discipline. The king replied disdainfully.

"Yuan Lin, do you really think so?" Wang Biaozhi waved his hand and motioned for Wang to sit down, and then sat on the chair next to him and sighed quietly.

"Uncle, nephew, I ......" Wang was speechless. Of course, he knew that so many laws in Beifu were not arbitrary.

"An Shi and I have been running around Chang'an for the past six months. Traveling with all kinds of people, I just want to understand how strong Beifu is. "Speaking of which. Wang Biaozhi glanced at Wang and said, "Yuan Lin, when you entered Chang'an for the first time, didn't you feel it in your heart?" ”

Yes, when the Jiangzuo courtiers came to Chang'an, their first feeling was that this was the real city of kings, this was the center of the world, and the shock in their hearts was self-evident.

Wang didn't make a sound, but Wang Biaozhi understood that he was afraid that his nephew was the same as himself, for the prosperity of Beifu, for the prosperity of Chang'an, for the factories full of cities in Xianyang, for the busy business travelers on the road of Beifu, and for the people with smiling faces on the fields of Beifu, their hearts are still full of lingering fear and helplessness.

"In addition, we also need to know why Beifu is so strong!" Wang Biaozhi was silent for a while and continued.

The king bowed his head, but could no longer speak. The uncle and nephew sat there staring at each other speechlessly, and the whole study was silent, only the acquaintance outside the window was screaming desperately.

"Uncle, do you understand?" The king finally raised his head and asked.

"King Qin, Jingluo, Bingtai, Suchang, Wuzi, and Wusheng are all immortal heroes, and the fierce generals of Beifu are like clouds, and the strategists are like rain, and they work together to make this strong today. But the world does not last long, and no one knows whether Beifu will be strong in a few decades? Will it be like Wei Jin? Wang Biaozhi sat there, bowed his head and muttered, "Therefore, the law of the Northern Mansion is carried out, the wisdom of the heroes of the Northern Mansion is gathered, and the things that should be done, how the people who should do it, what things should not be done, and how the punishment of those who do not do it should be done, and then it will be carried out everywhere in the place and for generations to come, so the King of Qin dares to go on an expedition of thousands of miles and the Northern Mansion is still unharmed." ”

"It's a pity that I've been reading the laws of Beifu for so long, but I can't understand the essence of it." Wang Biaozhi finally said gloomily, "It's too far away, it's too far away, we have no room to fight back." ”

Hearing this, Wang looked at his uncle with a gray face, and looked at his uncle in despair, when Huan Wen was powerful, his uncle judged the situation and supported Huan Wen's abolition, but prevented Huan Wen's usurpation, but today he gave up?

"Uncle, does Mr. Anshi think so too?" After a long time, the king struggled to squeeze out a sentence.

"The world's talents are all in Beifu." A word suddenly answered at the door, Wang turned his head to look, and found Xie An standing at the door, I don't know how long he had been standing, maybe he had heard the words of their uncle and nephew just now.

"Mr. Anshi, what do you mean by that?" Wang stared at Xie An for a long time before gritting his teeth and saying, the expression on his face was like the last straw that had been taken away.

Xie An ignored the king's murderous gaze, walked to a chair and sat down gloomily: "The people's hearts have been lost, the general trend has gone, and there is no power to return to the sky." As Mr. Managa said. The most important thing for us now is how to protect the heirs of the Sima clan. ”

The king burst into tears at once, and said no more.

A few days later, more than 10,000 students from Chang'an and Yongzhou went to the three provinces to study, and Wang led thousands of people to attack the book team, he took the lead and shouted hysterically at the book team: "The Great Jin is not finished, and the loyal ministers of the Great Jin have not died!" ”。 Then he raised his clenched fist. Wave it to the students on the ground at the front. Not to be outdone, the more than 1,000 "royalists" behind him rushed over with shouts.

After a while, there was a physical conflict between the two votes, and I saw the usually polite and polite students and celebrities scuffling together, and the entire Santai Square suddenly became a mess. In the end, thousands of Chang'an patrols and guards were dispatched to control the scene. When the crowd is dispersed. Only then did people find that the royalist vanguard king was lying quietly in the corner of the ground, the corners of his mouth, nostrils, and ears were covered with blood, and he should have been beaten to death by the crowd.

Beifu students have been trained in archery since they were six years old, all of them are capable of writing and martial arts, and Beifu is very good at martial arts, these students have no less fights when they are studying, and naturally they are not comparable to Jiangzuo students and celebrities. Wang was short, and like the followers behind him, he belonged to the frail and sickly stream, and was beaten by the students of Beifu who were superior in numbers. It took a lot of "loyalty to the king" to persist until the end, but hundreds of people were still beaten to death, and the king, who was taken care of, was even more desperate.

After the "bloody clashes" in Santai Square. The "pro-Zeng faction" broke out all of a sudden, as if they were the ones who suffered a great loss. The "Yongzeng faction" held a parade in various prefectures and counties, presented a letter to the government, and finally flew like snowflakes to the three provinces of Chang'an. The students and professors of the state books on the ground, and the heads of the states and counties wrote on the books. The joint letter of the squire fathers and elders from all over the country. The soldiers of the state capitals are to be jointly signed by battalions, and the armies stationed in various localities are jointly signed by battalions. The joint letters of the various naval fleets in the form of various ships ......, and so on, and the post mail throughout Beifu was busy transmitting the table.

In May of the third year of Ningkang, within a few days of the Santai Square incident, the heads of Zhang Yu, Yang Guang, Zhang Chong, Yin Wan of Guangzhou, and Yang Liang and Zhao Bao of Jiaozhou were successively transmitted to Chang'an.

In June, some "radicals" spread unfavorable words against the Jin Emperor, saying that the Jin family had lost their morality since the Yongjia Rebellion abandoned the people of the Central Plains, and was no longer qualified to occupy the position of the lord of the world.

Xie An and Wang Biaozhi knew that they couldn't delay any longer, so they entered the palace to meet the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother.

In July of the third year of Ningkang, the Son of Heaven passed the edict to the world, gave the King of Qin, Xiangguo, and the general Zeng Hua Jiuxi, completed the second step of receiving Zen, and in November, the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother finally sang the edict of the Zen throne: "Fu Dide changed the beginning, the three are stacked and prosperous, the material is virtuous, and the Yong Qisheng is born, so the emperor's traces are so Daichang, Wang Du is so changed to Yao, and the revolution is obscure, and the origin is still in place." Jinde was reduced to a slight situation, and it was recommended to die. Longchang is cruel and violates heaven and earth; Yongjia is violent, Shenzhou is sinking, and people and gods are sad. The three lights fell, and the seven temples were embellished. Dingye has moved several times, including knowledge. I Xuanyuan's Zuo, forever falling to the ground, looking at the area, Jian Yan has fallen.

Xiangguo Qin Wang, Tiansheng Ruizhe, God Zongling Lingwu, Dege Xuan, Gongjun Creation. Stop the cross-flow of the sect society, and oppose the misery of the people. Under the collapse of the structure, save the drowning in the river. The nine districts are heavy-handed, and the four-dimensional is renewed. The courtesy is restored, and the music is restored. The literary hall is full of gentry, and the Rong Pavilion is silent. Hu Haiyu gallops in the wind and runs out of wheels. Eight tables are auspicious, and five spirits are good. It's not just the scales and feathers, the clouds and stars are just colorful! Xun Mao is in the hundred kings, the way is famous for all generations, and the light is matched with the sky, and the sun and the moon are also glorious. The symbol of the revolution on the Heyue table, the fortune of the end of the era. The heart of the happy push, the hidden co-accumulation; Singing the praises of sincerity, written by Chinese Americans. The people's aspirations, the calendar of the sky, the real return, hold the mirror Xuanshu, and allow the collection of wisdom.

Although I am mediocre, dark in the avenue, forever reverent, for a long time, dare to forget the high righteousness of the generations, people's wishes! Now I worship Zen in the King of Qin, that is, An is remote, according to the story of Tang Yu. ”

The edict was sent to the three provinces, and thousands of famous people gathered at the door all knelt on the ground after hearing the edict, beating their heads, crying and grabbing the ground, such as mourning. However, the hundreds of thousands of people in Beifu who gathered in the square were overjoyed. When dozens of students raised a two-color five-star flag and a Xia Ding flag, the entire Santai Square seemed to be boiling, and all the locals cheered at these two flags with their greatest strength.

Everyone in the world understands that this day is probably going to change.

I've been thinking about how to transfer, how to change the dynasty, and I thought about it for several days before I woke up, in fact, under the layout of the protagonist, plus the strong forces of Beifu, it is normal to replace the Jin family, and it is normal to buy fritters to eat at another stall in the morning. The next chapter is the enthronement of Shouzen, the change of the name of the country, and the continuation of the great "revolutionary cause".
