The nobles are still thinking about the pros and cons, at first glance, it is indeed more advantageous to attack the Qiang, but they have always focused on the territory of Dashang before, and have not taken into account the Qiang people who have more Qiang sheep herding.

Jiang Wenhuan, who was silent, was stunned, but his eyes lit up, and he slapped the case suddenly: "Who is this, what he said is right! Beat the Qiang people! Grab their things, whatever Qiang sheep and Qiang cattle are, they will all be robbed! Grab the cattle and sheep for small merits, kill the Qiang people, and double the reward for capturing Boyi alive!"

Jiang Wenhuan has wanted to fight the Qiang people for a long time, when the Qiang people went south, I thought I could show some punches, but I didn't expect the Qiang people to run away, now that I have the opportunity, how can I give up?

Oh He and Yao Ge are also very different, this is an opportunity for revenge!

The aristocratic lords were shocked by Jiang Wenhuan's movements, but they also realized something at the same time.

Qiang... Seems like it's easy to fight, huh?

Look, Jiang Wenhuan was fierce, and he scared the Qiang people away back then, even if the Qiang King was replaced by Bo Yi Kao, it would make no difference.

Moreover, there are also remnants of the Qiang people such as Oh He and Yao Ge as the leading party, and they even have geographical advantages.

What's missing?

There are soldiers and horses in Li County, plus the private soldiers of the nobles, enough, as for the combat effectiveness, it doesn't matter at all, Jiang Wenhuan took the lead in charging morale together, regardless of whether he fought like the Qiang people or the Rong people, all the nobles present have witnessed the scene of Jiang Wenhuan overturning Wu and Gao Errong alone, and beating Rong Di to recognize his ancestors.

Grain and grass? There was no before, and the nobles also picked it, and it was impossible to use their own food to feed the soldiers of the imperial court.

But now it seems that the problem has been solved, and the profit of the woolen sweater is enough to offset the cost of money and food, and the profit is not lost.

As for how to distribute the Qiang sheep obtained by robbing the Qiang people, the nobles were not worried at all.

The king has handed over the woolen clothing industry to the nobles, so it will not be easily changed, and the imperial court is not able to deal with such a large number of Qiang sheep and the wool accumulated over the years, whether it is grazing, manufacturing, transportation, and sales, only the nobles can do it.

After thinking about these things, Hou Yan coughed and put on a kind face that was different from before: "I heard that Bo Yi Kao turned Ji into Jiang, not only became a Qiang person, but also seized the throne of the Qiang king, and wanted to kill all the Qiang people who were loyal to the previous Qiang king..."

"Lord Li, Your Majesty is singing in Chaoge, I don't know the situation in the border area, today you entered Licheng, you must have seen those poor Qiang people with your own eyes, the enemy of the enemy, is the ally of the Great Shang, we help the Qiang people to take revenge, we can get the friendship of the Qiang people!"

"Your Majesty once said that the whole world is not the king's land, but looking at the appearance of Bo Yi Kao, how can you put Your Majesty in your eyes? We hope that the imperial court can attack Xiqiang, not only that, but also plunder their livestock, encroach on their land, and never suffer in the future, of course, the Qiang people of Oh He and Yao Ge are our friends, they can graze and work on the land, and live the same life as the people of the Great Shang..."

"Thinking about it, although we are aristocrats, we also know that we are worried about the country and the people, Xiqiang under the leadership of Bo Yi Kao is not only a big trouble for my big business, but also tyrannical and unreasonable, and the position is not right, my big business is the kingdom of the Heavenly Empire, and virtue is all over the world, how can I allow others to be bigger?"

"Every time we think of this, we will not sleep well, and we will not be able to eat well, so we implore that we send troops to fight against the world. ”

Li Sui: "......"

He suddenly didn't know what to say, and this was also a sudden situation that the king didn't talk about.

How did the good accountability of the aristocracy become accountability for Xiqiang, even to the point of sending troops to conscript?

He wasn't sure for a while, he just looked at Hou Yan and the others in a daze.

This appearance fell in the eyes of Hou Yan and others, and it became a waiting price to sell.

Sure enough, I can't just say it, I have to do it.

Hou Yan and the others didn't think much about it, the sooner they laid down Xiqiang, they would be able to shepherd the sheep sooner, who would dislike making too little?

Thinking of the fertile pastures, the fat cattle and sheep, and the Qiang people who are good at grazing, a bright future has fallen in the eyes, and there is no need to doubt it.

Once the imperial court used troops against Xiqiang, they could follow the army to grab the sheep pen, which was tantamount to huge profits for them.

Thinking of this, Hou Yan's heart was hot, and he said righteously: "But we also know the difficulties of the imperial court, the barbarians in the south need to be punished like the Qiang people, and the imperial court has no time to divide the troops." ”

"But as a big merchant people, I should contribute to the court, seeing that the court is short of money and food, then donate some, even if it is a drop in the bucket, but we must not be indifferent, the money and food needed for the deployment of troops, we and other families have squeezed out some from the daily consumption, I think there are still a lot. ”

"The people and laborers, we can also help one or two, domestic servants, private soldiers, there are still some, for the sake of the world, for the sake of the big business and His Majesty, even gritted his teeth to live, and he is willing!"

"Bo Yi Kao's intentions are sinister, we really can't stand it, if we sit idly by, uneasy, the envoy is here, it must be because His Majesty is also aware of it, time is not waiting for me, I will definitely ask for no ministers, in order to show the king's way!"

"Everyone said, yes or no?"

Under the leadership of Hou Yan, the nobles and lords blushed their faces and stiffened their necks, and wantonly counted the differences between Boyi Kao and the Qiang people.

They are aristocrats, aristocrats who can confuse right and wrong by reversing black and white, what is it to splash dirty water?

A different feeling rose in Li Sui's heart, amazing, this group of nobles is really powerful, and they actually said that the well-known Bo Yi Kao was a heinous sinner.

For example, the cruelty of slaves and the plundering of people.

Or they didn't follow etiquette and changed their surname.

In addition, it was even covered with a black cauldron of adultery and plunder.

All in all, no matter how bad it is, it can be described as bad, and what is fake can also become true under their public opinion, and outside of the court, the aristocracy controls public opinion.

Li Sui raised his head and looked at the indignant nobles, one of whom even went too far, not only smashing his own barbars twice, but also smashing several bartenders at the same table, and stepping on them several times in anger.

This scene, Li Sui only felt funny.

He finally understood what the king meant.

There was no indication after the accountability, just waiting for the nobles to take a stand.

Even, this benefit of the Qiang people was also sent to the nobles by the king of Xu.

Very simply, this is the temptation of the king, to give up the initiative and interests to the nobles, without any superfluous actions, just to see what will happen to the nobles.

Do you continue to oppose business, or do something for big business?

The behavior of the nobles will determine their future, and the last sentence emphasized by the king of Xuan during the meeting between the monarchs and ministers is the best proof of this: "Mobilize the soldiers and horses of Li County and let Jiang Wenhuan cooperate".

If the nobles still resist strongly, it will naturally be to transfer troops to raid their homes and kill rivers of blood, with Jiang Wenhuan here, they can suppress any disobedience.

If the nobles succumb to the interests, it is to transfer troops to conscript and crusade against the Qiang people, with Jiang Wenhuan here, he can kill Xiqiang and turn on his horse alone.

This is the king of Zhou's constant response to change, Li Jing said that the combination of grace and power, in fact, the king of Zhou has long thought of it!

It's just that the favor in the eyes of the king is not to temporarily turn a blind eye to the nobles in the new law, but to give benefits.

For example, the nobleman is a dog, and the king as the owner does not loosen the rope on the dog's body slightly, but throws out a bone.

The difference between the two is huge, even if the rope is loosened, the dog will not necessarily follow the owner's command to move forward or backward, and if a bone is thrown, the dog will spontaneously go to the place where there is a bone.

Even.... Knock over and shred obstacles that stand in your way.
