Chapter 622: The Secret Battle in Sizhou

Liu Jian's recital made it clear to Liu Jian that he was now suspending the new policy of the imperial court in the land of three rivers, just to stabilize the situation of the imperial court.

The government of small money may be good governance, but the local situation is too chaotic now, and there are people harboring evil intentions.

He Liu Jian acted like this, and he had no choice but to do it.

Therefore, I especially took this note, hoping to get the support and understanding of the imperial court.

After Liu Jian's performance reached the imperial court, it caused an uproar.

First of all, led by Wang Yun, Yang Biao, Chun Yujia and others, they began to continue to play to Liu Jian, stating that Liu Jian's words were confusing the public.

On the surface, it seems to be to share the worries of the court, but in fact, it is to paralyze the Son of Heaven, which is really sinister intentions.

Xun You, as well as Ma Riyan, Liu Biao and others expressed their opposition.

They think that Liu Jian is dedicated to the public, and they also ask the Son of Heaven to stay calm and not to fall out with Liu Jian at this moment.

Yang Biao, Wang Yun and others maintained different opinions, and they firmly asked the Son of Heaven to reprimand Liu Jian, and even in the name of this, they directly cut off Liu Jian's name as a general.

At this critical moment, Dong Zhao stood up and said a word, letting Liu Wei know what situation he was in now.

"If Your Majesty reprimands Liu Jian in an edict at this time, or strips Liu Jian of his name as a general, then Liu Jian and the court will inevitably be distracted, and who can contain Yuan Shao?"

"Besides, Liu Jian didn't want to rebel, but once this edict was issued, it forced him to rebel."

Liu Wei listened to Dong Zhao's admonitions, and then suddenly realized.

He looked at Wang Yun, Yang Biao and the others angrily, and shouted: "Are you all Yuan Shao's wings? ”

When Yang Biao, Wang Yun and others heard this, they were all startled, and hurriedly pleaded with Liu.

As a result, Liu Wei, with the support of the Qingliu family, expressed his acquiescence to Liu Jian's actions.

At the same time, Hebei's propaganda mouthpieces began to unleash their power.

Over the years, Hebei has launched Ta Kung Pao, which is led by the Hebei Government Bureau, and the latest news of the Han Dynasty is released to all counties, townships, and gatherings every half month.

Although these news were not published by the imperial court, Ta Kung Pao has indeed become a popular ...... in the hearts of northerners It is even the most authoritative propaganda carrier in the hearts of some southerners.

When Liu Jian first formed Ta Kung Pao, the imperial court and the princes in the south were fighting for territory and did not react to this incident.

However, by the time they reacted and wanted to set about building their own propaganda carrier similar to Ta Kung Pao, it was already too late...... Hebei Ta Kung Pao has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and has become authoritative.

No other official announcement can match the influence of Ta Kung Pao.

Coupled with the fact that Ta Kung Pao and the books issued by Qingzhou complement each other, it can be said that the Hebei government has now completely controlled the direction of public opinion along the north and south banks of the Yellow River.

Ta Kung Pao has recently released heavy news one after another, saying that the general will serve the people, abolish small money, and stabilize the situation in Sizhou.

The general also mobilized most of Hebei's goods and materials to stabilize the rebellious people in Sizhou and maintain stability.

The general also intends to stabilize food prices......

Ta Kung Pao did not directly say that small money is a bad disease, but only strengthened and beautified Liu Jian's current abolition of small money.

In fact, to a certain extent, this is to slap the ears of the imperial court, or to say that it is to slap Liu Wei's ears.

But these two ear scrapers Liu Wei had to endure it, and he had to swallow it in his stomach now.

Of course, Ta Kung Pao is official and can only release some positive information, and as for the rumors of the grapevine, they cannot be released through Ta Kung Pao.

However, in terms of gossip and rumors, Liu Jian now has the school affairs office, which can fully complement Ta Kung Pao.

The biggest rumor spread by the current school government is the rumor about Lu Qiang's death.

There is no doubt that LΓΌ Qiang's death is a stain on the Son of Heaven, although the person who died was only a eunuch, but this eunuch was a eunuch who was of great assistance to the imperial court and to Liu Wei himself at a critical moment.

He can even be said to be a clear stream among eunuchs and an exemplary figure among eunuchs.

However, he is such a rare exemplary figure among the eunuchs, and he is also the former benevolent father of the Son of Heaven, who died so inexplicably, and the rumors also point to today's son.

Therefore, people with a heart can take advantage of this incident and this rumor to continue to hype up and slander the Son of Heaven.

This is indeed very detrimental to the reputation of the Son of Heaven.

……

After Liu Jian admonished the imperial court, he did not wait for the imperial court to reply to him, and immediately sent someone to inform Xu Rong and let him do it in the land of three rivers.

Xu Rong has been holding back in Jizhou for many years, and this time he can be said to have plucked up his spirits.

He immediately began to lay out in the Land of the Three Rivers.

One of the most critical aspects of his plan is to stabilize food prices.

However, it is difficult to stabilize the current food price, even if the small amount of money is abolished, one is because inflation has reached a certain level, and it is difficult to absorb it quickly.

Second, for those top Sizhou families who are stockpiling grain, now is the best opportunity for them to take the opportunity to expand their power and harvest the bottom.

And this opportunity is an opportunity given to them by the imperial court, which can be described as justifiable.

The last time Guo Yan talked to them and killed a few of them, it already made them have a certain degree of rebellion, and now these wang clans have joined forces with Yuan Shao, but they are unwilling to bring down the price of grain.

This is a very huge obstacle for Liu Jian to stabilize the situation in the land of three rivers.

Xu Rong also sent people to talk to the main wang clans in the land of three rivers, asking them to keep the price of grain down, of course, bloodletting is not in vain, Liu Jian will definitely give them benefits in the future.

Moreover, the Hebei Commerce and Trade Association will also be stationed in the land of Sanhe, and use the wealth of Hebei to cooperate with the local nobles to stabilize the bleak situation in Sizhou as soon as possible.

In fact, logically speaking, the plan proposed by Xu Rong now is the best plan, but these noble families are blinded by their immediate interests, so they don't care about the life or death of those low-level Li Shu, and they don't care about the stability of the situation in the imperial court.

What does it have to do with them?

They are now just hoarding food, and they are desperately sucking blood!

Suck the blood of the savages and the lowly away.

According to Xu Rong's temper in the past, if these people did not cooperate with him, he would definitely send troops to exterminate their Wu Fort, and take the same means as Guo Yan.

But over the years, Xu Rong has followed Liu Jian's side, he has seen and learned a lot, and he also has his own set of playing styles, especially before he came, Liu Jian had told him how to deal with these things.

And the attitude of these noble families was also expected by Xu Rong.

After all, these people are now secretly grouped with Yuan Shao.

So, Xu Rong followed Liu Jian's instructions to cooperate with another part of the local group in Sizhou.

This part of the group is the local middle and strong in Sizhou and a part of the poor family.

Or that before this turmoil, those families who were not able to stock up on food in a forward-looking manner, resulting in a small amount of food in their own homes.

For the current high food prices, not only ordinary people have been affected, but also these middle and lower class families.

Although they have enough food for their expenses, it does not allow them to make a good profit.

And they also have to buy some of the sky-high grain in the hands of the wang clan.

They could only watch as those top families who had hoarded a lot of grain and straw were desperately harvesting the people at the bottom, and even harvesting them as medium families.

Their hearts are full of jealousy, full of resentment, but there is nothing they can do.

But now, Xu Rong gave them a chance.

On behalf of Liu Jian, Xu Rong invited these families to cooperate with them to calm the price of grain and destroy the current chain of interests of those top families!

When these interests are re-controlled by the Hebei Business and Trade Association, a new ecological chain of interests will be established, and these middle-class families who have helped Hebei will naturally be the best beneficiaries in these interest chains.

For these medium-sized giants, this is a golden opportunity for them to take a step forward!

And the person who came to them for cooperation was none other than Liu Deran, who was rich and oily in the four states of Hebei!

Trustworthy!

How could they miss such an opportunity?

As a result, with the support of these medium-sized wealthy families and poor families, Hebei soon gathered a force in the land of three rivers that could help them confront Yuan Shao and the local noble clans.

With the support of these people, coupled with the Hebei Business Association and the entry of a large number of grains in Hebei, Xu Rong has sufficient backing.

It is not once or twice that the Hebei Commerce and Trade Association has manipulated grain prices around Hebei and outside the northern part of Hebei for so many years.

Their experience is no less than that of the Sizhou nobles.

In Liu Jian's view, this is a confrontation between ancient capital and ancient capital.

Let's squeeze each other to see who can squeeze whom.

If you want to hoard grain and soar the price of grain, I will let a large amount of grain enter the local market in Sizhou through these local middle-class families in Sizhou, and completely suppress the price of grain in your hands.

I don't even have any pants left for you.

Of course, this way of operation will also cause Hebei to suffer losses, after all, the opponent is very strong!

The land of Sizhou and Luoyang has been a place where the rich and wealthy have gathered since ancient times, even if Hebei is now rich in oil, but they are enough to fight against it.

Especially behind this is also with Yuan's!

Liu Jian planned to attack in many ways, and he sent people to contact Zhang Miao and other Eight Kitchen Groups in the Central Plains, asking them to cut off the food supply channels for the Central Plains and other Wang clans in Sizhou and other places.

In addition, he also sent people to the court, asked Xun You and others to play the Son of Heaven, let the court issue an edict, limit the price of grain in Sizhou, and list all the behaviors of coaxing good families as illegal!

Liu Jian's series of operations naturally turned the situation in Sizhou upside down!

Those top families in Sizhou can't wait to dig up Liu Jian's ancestral grave at this moment!

But they don't have it.

In this passive situation, the Sizhou Wang clan unanimously discussed, so they jointly asked Sun Jian and others to take action!

If the soft one doesn't work, come the hard one!

Directly let Sun Jian fight Xu Rong!

Defeat him!

See what else Hebei people can do!
