Chapter 270: If they are not decent, then help them be decent

There's not much new under the sun.

What these people did had happened many times during the Huai period. Accompanied by Wang Luo sending people to check the granary, followed by the fire dragon burning the warehouse.

News suddenly came from the Zibo granary, there was a thunder roar at night, and the fire dragon came into the world, stretching for several miles, and everyone was charred. The fire soared into the sky, and for more than three days, the iron and stone melted.

By the time the news reached Luoyang, the entire grain field was burned down, and more than 100 people from the grain field order to the small officials below were all turned into coke.

When he saw this report, Wang Luo suddenly overturned the table directly, and his face was even more cold.

"Fire Dragon Burning Warehouse! If there is a fire dragon, don't I know? What a big dog guts!

The granary burned down, the grain field order and the grain field officials were all dead, and the corpses were destroyed and destroyed beautifully. Wang Luo's face was gloomy, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"These nobles and nobles are taking the money given by the court, but they are doing things that endanger the court and the country, if they are not punished, will there be anyone who will serve the court and the country in the future?"

"Some people think that destroying everything will cover it up?"

"Looks like I'm too merciful!"

"The edict is to let all the noble families in Linzi report it, the whistleblower can be exempted from punishment, and those who have made great contributions can be rewarded, if no one reports it, all the families of Linzi will be punished according to the law!"

Wang Luo issued an edict and transferred the army over.

After seeing that Wang Luo was indiscriminately punishing all the nobles and nobles in Linzi, many ministers hurriedly wrote to advise.

As a result, he was recruited into the palace by Wang Luo and scolded severely.

"Linzi grain storage capacity is 300,000 stones, as the powerful nobles of Linzi City, don't they know any rumors?"

"They know, but they either take the benefits, or participate in it, or ignore it! Enjoying the wealth and land given by the imperial court, is this how he repays the imperial court? ”

Those ministers were scolded by Wang Luo, and they didn't dare to say more. These people are shameless, so don't blame Wang Luo for being ruthless.

Give them decency, they don't want to be decent, then help them decent.

Many nobles in Linzi also panicked at this time, the emperor's posture didn't seem like a joke, the army had already entered Linzi City, and all the nobles were silent.

Some of the nobles who had not been involved in the affairs of the granary were completely anxious at this time.

How could these people be willing, that they had not received any benefit in these things, that they had no fault, and that they were to be punished for it.

It didn't take a few days at all for a large number of reports to be sent to Wang Luo, and in addition to these things, these nobles and nobles bit each other and involved more things.

Wang Luo demoted all the noble and scholarly families who dared to participate in the burning of the fire dragon warehouse to commoners, and at the same time directly killed the descendants of their family heads, and the rest of the people were sent to Lingnan, Longxi and other places to enrich the local population.

After disposing of a large number of nobles and nobles in a row, the entire court was cleared, and the ministers were all uneasy.

Wang Luo is very clear about this situation, the corruption rate of the noble scholars is very fast, he must give these people enough warning, but he can't defeat all these people.

Even after hundreds of years of cultivation in the Huaiguo Academy, the knowledge of this era is still circulated in most aristocratic families, and there are very few people who are really from the bottom of the people.

If Wang Luo really knocked down all these nobles and nobles, who will work for him at that time? Thinking of this, Wang Luo could only suppress this breath, and he had already made up his mind in his heart to vigorously cultivate the children of the people, and wanted to replace them with these people.

After teaching these people a lesson, Wang Luo gave them a chance, as long as they admitted their mistakes, and then returned the greedy grain twice, Wang Luo would no longer hold them accountable.

After getting the news, many noble families soon came to repent. Wang Luo did not go back on his word and forgave them for their crimes.

After seeing this, the nobles were relieved. Wang Luo's actions let them know what the bottom line is that cannot be touched.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is eighteen years old, and it's time to make the crown princess." In Shangyang Palace, Prime Minister Sun Qian said respectfully.

Wang Luo nodded slightly, it was indeed time to make him the crown princess. Wang Luo's mind was flying, he was thinking not only about the crown princess, but also about his lifespan.

Wang Luo already had a vague sense of how long he could live. Back then, because of the use of the Heavenly Mandate Artifact, he lost some longevity, but by using the Heavenly Mandate Artifact, he also had some miracles in himself, allowing him to have some perception.

Originally, he wanted to do his best to do everything in his hands, but now it seems that he can't do it.

At the same time, he must let the crown prince also have enough prestige to continue to subdue those nobles.

Wang Yun came to Xu Chao's mansion, although the general's mansion has been very low-key over the years, it seems that it has withdrawn from the center of power, if you really think so, you are a fool.

Xu Chao is just low-key, he is a smart person, and he made so many great feats back then, which was enough to tear the earth and seal the king, but he didn't mention it, and he still behaved very deferentially.

The Xu family is a top wealthy family in Daqian, and it is also a royal clan, but this does not mean that the Xu family is at ease, and the next generation of the Xu family is also a masterpiece.

In fact, the next generation of the Xu family cannot be compared with it at all. The Xu family's status today is all due to Xu Chao. When Xu Chao dies, there is no successor to his family, and the Xu family will immediately decline.

From the top nobles to ordinary nobles.

These things are not only in the Xu family, but also in other families to a greater or lesser extent. These families began to marry each other.

Through this bond of marriage, an intricate offensive and defensive alliance was formed, and in the imperial court, these people were prominent and occupied a large number of positions.

Through this kind of marriage help, after you are developed, do not forget me, and when your family is lonely, we will carry you again.

This kind of method, during the Bang Zhou period, the nobles played like this, and even came up with a set of bloodline problems. Now the House of Merit is also using the same means.

Wang Luo was naturally very dissatisfied with this situation, but he couldn't order these people not to marry each other.

If you want to solve this problem, you can only let the prince come forward and marry the descendants of these families, so that you can not only get help, but also block the connection between these families.

At the same time, it can also split the families of meritorious ministers who are gradually monolithic. Wang Luo didn't believe that these people could resist this temptation.

Wang Yun said: "General, don't Your Majesty know what you think in your hearts? ”

"You are hurting Your Majesty's feelings by doing this, now that the prince has reached the age of marriage, Your Majesty wants to choose a woman with both ability and integrity for the prince to be the queen."

"Isn't it Your Majesty's benevolence to give you the opportunity to let the daughters of your family come and participate?"

"Don't blame the prime minister, it's just that the same palace is a minister, it's really hard to refuse, and now His Majesty wants to choose a concubine for the prince, and the minister will reject them." The general immediately decided.

What could be better than the Emperor's father-in-law to maintain his wealth? If he dies, the Xu family will not be affected too much.
