611 New Law of the State of Chu
Listening to Xiong Wuliang's words, Ying Zhuo glanced at Xiong Wuliang expressionlessly, and then was indifferent.
Quyang Hou was ignored!
Xiong Wuliang touched his chin embarrassedly...... There was a nameless fire in my heart.
Today's Ying Zhuo rarely did not wear black clothes, but wore a pale yellow brocade dress with the flavor of Chu State, with red lines and ribbons, standing among the flowers, looking charming.
The long hair was combed high, but it was not tied into such a complicated bun, but simply fixed diagonally with a copper hairpin, and the ends of the hair were thinly spread out, shaking slightly in the warm spring breeze.
Xiong Wuliang is not interested in cherry blossoms, but he is very interested in the convex and backward Yingzhuo...... I couldn't help but smile evilly, and I was about to step forward and feel the size of the ......
"Ahem." A cough was heard in the distance, accompanied by footsteps from far and near.
Xiong Wuliang stopped his hand and stood in place to take a look-it was really Qu Yuan's old thing.
Qu Yuan unconsciously interrupted Xiong Wuliang's good deeds, Shi Shiran stepped forward and bowed his hand with a smile: "The old minister will meet the lord and the lady." ”
Ying Zhuo was obviously more polite when he faced Qu Yuan than when he faced Xiong Wuliang - although his face was slightly red when he was called 'madam' by Qu Yuan, he still smiled lightly, saluted softly, and then left quietly without looking at Xiong Wuliang.
Qu Yuan smiled, turned his head to Xiong Wuliang and smiled: "The old minister has not congratulated the marquis on his wedding......
Xiong Wuliang snorted, looking at Yingzhuo's back with an unhappy expression, while thinking in his heart how to make this hard-mouthed little girl beg for mercy tonight......
In the early spring of this year, Xiong Wuliang and Ying Zhuo had already completed the wedding ceremony.
According to the marriage agreement proposed by Yun Mengze when he met the alliance, this big wedding should have been completed the year before last - but the chaos that has occurred in the past two years has been one after another, first Sima Coo's joint forces attacked Chu, and it was dark, and last year Xiong Wuliang was under the joint suppression of the old nobles......
Cough!
Although it was two years late, it can be regarded as a happy ending!
Speaking of this big wedding ceremony, it is quite eye-catching.
At the wedding ceremony, the six kingdoms of Qin, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei and Qi each sent 10,000 soldiers as honor guards, and the scene was magnificent and magnificent, which amazed the spectators.
Even the states of Qin, Zhao, and Yan, which were not dealing with the state of Chu...... They also sent ministers to congratulate them.
The last time there was this treatment, it was the famous Zhao Suhou Zhao Yu - more than 20 years ago (326 BC), at the funeral of that house, Qin, Chuyan, Qi and Wei sent 10,000 troops to the funeral and condolences.
Of course, this time it was a happy event, so it was even more grand and warm.
Having said that, Xiong Wuliang made a vigorous move in the Chu State's 'centralized power change', and the countries of the world also heard about it - on the way to 'congratulate him' this time, the envoys of various countries also came with the task of investigating and examining the school.
The achievements of Chu's reform have attracted the attention of all countries in the world.
In just one year, the national strength has become extremely strong...... After the envoys of various countries were shocked, they involuntarily began to deduce, and the results were really shocking - it was expected that in a few years, the national strength of the state of Chu would be at least as strong as before the Sima Cuo coalition army attacked Chu, or even surpassed...... It's terrifying.
……
After all, the garden is not the place to talk about serious things - so Xiong Wuliang and Qu Yuan came to the study and sat down with the guests.
Qu Yuan arched his hand and said: "Prince, since the Tui En Order, the whole country has divided more than ninety-seven nobles with knighthoods, all of whom are close to the sovereign; In addition, there are many nobles who have not yet been divided, but they are also quite aware of current affairs, and have clearly expressed their allegiance to the prince. ”
"The new law reduced the tax-collecting power of the aristocracy, so that the treasury was abundant and the pressure on the people was greatly reduced."
"Lao Chen has sent officials to check the population and land situation, although the inventory has not yet been completed, but there is about a number - in a year, the area of cultivated land has increased by about five percent, and the number of new Chinese people has exceeded thirty percent!"
The 'number of new nations' here refers not only to newborns, but also to the many newly freed slaves and servants.
Originally, these people were only the property of the great nobles.
But now, they have also become peasants of Great Chu, and they can work, pay taxes, and levy troops for the Chu State!
Qu Yuan continued: "To sum up, the commoners basically supported the prince, and more than seventy percent of the nobles also made it clear that they were loyal to the prince; ”
"Even if some nobles are unwilling, they don't dare to openly confront it."
"The political situation in Chu has stabilized!"
"It's time to move on to the next step!"
Qu Yuan's voice was excited.
As an aspiring politician, nothing excites him more than the realization of the blueprint in his heart.
His own little lord no longer lies flat, and is dedicated to moving towards the throne of the king of Chu.
And the whole state of Chu is unprecedentedly united under the command of the Marquis of Quyang - power is becoming more and more concentrated, and the national strength of Chu is recovering day by day, and it is even expected to reach a level that the ancestors of the past generations could not even imagine.
With the assistance of Le Yi, Shen Dao and other talents, the new law was implemented in an orderly manner.
Talents like Qu Yuan, Shen Dao, and Le Yi can be helped by one of them, and they will be enough to strengthen the country...... Now that the three of them are in trouble, why worry about the great cause?
On the contrary, it is the old slippery head who is more inclined to the talent of a strategist, rather than a capable minister in the traditional sense.
Having said that, Lao Qu Yuan's current state is simply a dead wood in spring - his already gray hair has magically turned black again, and the whole person is also tiger-like, and he even walks twice as fast!
Looking at his posture, it seems that he will work for the Xiong Group for another 30 years!
Xiong Wuliang nodded slowly, thoughtful: "What's next?" ”
"You mean, Benhou is called the King of Chu, and the time is ripe?"
Qu Yuan's face turned dark, and he hurriedly said, "Definitely!" ”
"It is a great matter to be crowned king, and you must not be reckless."
"Although the king of Chu no longer has real power, the prince has the authority to raise the country...... But after all, since Mi Heng ascended the throne, he has not committed much sin. ”
"It seems inappropriate to speak falsely and abolish it."
"Your image in the hearts of the vast number of Chu people, Junhou, has always been tall."
"If you act recklessly, even if you can successfully reach the top, you seem to be greedy for power and live up to the suspicion of disappointing the previous king, which may make it difficult for the subjects of Chu to accept it for a while...... It is also easy to give the Gentiles an excuse to send troops. ”
Xiong Wuliang nodded in agreement.
Then just wait!
To err is human?
will always wait for the day when Mi Heng makes a mistake and the time is ripe.
When the time comes, we will build momentum again, so that small mistakes will become big mistakes, and big mistakes will become unforgivable mistakes...... Let this brother Wang become the 'faint monarch' in the hearts of the people, and then he will be able to do the things of Yi Yin Huoguang logically!
Ay!
I didn't want that...... But there's no way back!
But then again, the current Mi Heng seems to understand Xiong Wuliang's plan, so he is extremely self-disciplined - even the female sex is not close!
I'm afraid that Xiong Wuliang and his party will find any excuses for 'absurdity'!
At the age of Fang Gang, he can refuse a woman, and he is really a werewolf......
……
Qu Yuan paused, and finally revealed in a deep voice: "The 'next step' in the mouth of the old minister refers to-"
"Lingnan Pioneer Group!"
