Chapter 529: Liu Yu Rises
Liu Muzhi packed his luggage, personally wrote a note to report his merits, and then left quietly with a few brothers.
Although the world is chaotic and the princes are rising, the cadres still have a high prestige in the world. Although the prefectures and counties in various regions found reasons no longer to escort the grain tax to Luoyang, no one invaded the surroundings of Luoyang.
Even Jinling, Huai'an and other places are still in the hands of the imperial court.
Liu Muzhi led people along the canal to Daliang, and then to Luoyang, although there were many people who set up cards to collect taxes privately, but the journey was quite smooth.
After coming to Luoyang, Liu Muzhi was also shocked when he saw the prosperous Luoyang.
"Luoyang, the capital of the gods, is worthy of its name!"
"Now Luoyang City has been cut off from taxes by various states and counties, and it is still so prosperous, what is the scene of the period of total victory?" Liu Mu said yearningly.
After entering Luoyang, Liu Muzhi asked people to go around to investigate.
Fortunately, Luoyang has always been controlled by the royal family, and the royal family has always attached great importance to the voice of the people, and specially ordered the Department of Communications to collect the voice of the people and report it to the imperial court.
Liu Muzhi used the General Administration Department to write the book.
In Shangyang Palace, Wang Jing was also slightly stunned when he saw Liu Muzhi's retribution. Since the rise of the princes in various places, and the cutting off of most of the money and grain taxes, the imperial court has not received these reports for a long time.
The states and counties had already begun to do their own thing, and now that a letter suddenly came, Wang Jing thought about it slightly, and immediately understood the reason.
The royal family also knows that although the states and counties have their own affairs, it does not mean that those princes can cover the sky locally.
In fact, many princes compromised with local nobles and scholars to gain their support.
Among them, the peasants and soldiers were the unpopular class and were often suppressed.
Now this recital has been sent to the imperial court, and it is clear that he is dissatisfied with those princes, nobles, and scholars. Want to gain fame and fortune.
Wang Jing naturally hated those scholars and scholars, eunuchs, and nobles, and it was these people who were pushing the great cadres into the abyss.
And more importantly, the performance of these people made Wang Jing clear that if they were allowed to gain power, or even finally win the world, it would not be a good thing for the people at the bottom.
Some of these nobles, nobles, and scholars may care about the people's welfare, but the vast majority of them attach more importance to private affairs, and as for the country and the people, they all have to make way for them.
When the time comes, the people at the bottom will not think about the day when they will come out, and the officials can basically only come out of these families of scholars, nobles, and eunuchs.
Basically, it regresses to the model of the Spring and Autumn Period hundreds of years ago.
Wang Jing didn't want to see that scene, so when he saw a peasant soldier running to read the book, he immediately had an idea. After Wang Jing watched the song, he issued an edict to entitle him as the envoy of Pengcheng soldiers and horses, commanding the peasants and soldiers of Pengcheng, and leading the Taishou of Pengcheng.
Wang Jing is very generous, Pengcheng Taishou is a high-ranking official of two thousand stones, and the Pengcheng soldiers and horses can mobilize Pengcheng's peasants and soldiers, which can almost be said to be a prince all the way, of course, the premise is that he can master these rights.
In fact, according to this report, Liu Yu mastered a lot of peasant soldiers, and there were only 300 peasant soldiers in Pengcheng County back then, if he could master them, plus those auxiliary soldiers, it would be 1,500 well-trained soldiers.
If there is a real fight, those soldiers in the hands of the powerful and noble are not their opponents.
Now that he is famous, if Liu Yu can seize the opportunity, he may not be able to take the opportunity to rise. Compared with those scholarly families, Wang Jing agrees with Liu Yu more, at least he knows the suffering of the people.
Wang Jing asked people to prepare the official seal of Pengcheng Taishou and the official seal of Pengcheng's soldiers and horses, as well as the corresponding official robes. Then send someone to Liu Muzhi, and at the same time pass this edict to the Quartet.
Although the imperial court is now in decline, it is still the orthodoxy of the imperial court, occupying the name of righteousness, and the imperial edict is still valid, but it is not implemented at the local level, and the imperial court cannot control it.
After Liu Muzhi saw the royal edict, the whole person was ecstatic. Originally, he came here to want an official position of the level of a county commander or county lieutenant, but the court not only gave it, but also gave it far more.
With this title, Liu Yu could quickly gather the peasants, integrate the peasants, and then become the Taishou of Pengcheng.
Of course, this is not without risks, it is necessary to control all the peasants and soldiers in Pengcheng County as soon as possible, if the peasants and soldiers are not mastered, then this edict and the reward official position are life charms.
However, Liu Muzhi is very confident in Liu Yu, Liu Yu is a natural general, leading soldiers and horses to fight successively, and has a high prestige among the peasants and soldiers.
What is needed now is a time lag, and before those people can react, they must take control of the peasants and soldiers, and then seize the position of Taishou.
The angel of the court smiled at Liu Muzhi and said, "Your Majesty has ordered that the official edict will be issued to the whole country in three days." ”
Liu Muzhi was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly bowed to him again and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you angel for reminding me!" ”
After the angel left, Liu Muzhi immediately beckoned the others to pack up their things, and then hurried towards Pengcheng.
Wang Jing didn't pay much attention to Liu Yu, and now that the royal family is evacuating, find something to do for those princes, lest they find out about the royal family's movements and block them.
Now the Daqian royal family still has residual deterrence, once those princes continue to grow bigger, their ambitions will continue to grow, one day, they will feel that the royal family is an eyesore, and then they will start to deal with the royal family.
Liu Yu's incident also opened up an idea for Wang Jing, since Liu Yu can command the local peasants and soldiers, then there are also people in other states and counties who can command the local peasants and soldiers.
So Wang Jing asked the secret guard to sort out the information, and then began to pick out some for them to reward.
As long as some of these peasants and soldiers can succeed, it will bring a huge crisis to those noble and scholarly families.
After Wang Jing selected a few people, he then sent an envoy to reward them. As long as it goes well, it won't be long before these peasant soldiers will rise quickly.
On the other side, Liu Mu drove lightly, quickly rushed to Pengcheng, and finally returned to Pengcheng, urging him to act quickly after handing over the official position and official seal of the imperial court to Liu Yu.
Originally, Liu Yu was excited at first after learning about the reward, but he soon broke out in a cold sweat, but soon he understood that in fact, he only had this way to go, that is, to accept the reward immediately, and then seize the power of the peasants and soldiers, otherwise he would be killed.
After Liu Yu understood the problem, he did not hesitate at all, and immediately made a decision and sent his henchmen to communicate with other peasants.
Originally, the relationship between the peasants and soldiers was good, but now after learning that Liu Yu was rewarded by the imperial court, he immediately became excited, but in two days, Liu Yu controlled three hundred peasants and soldiers, and one thousand fifteen hundred soldiers.
