Liu Muzhi sighed: "That's all, I'll take care of it. I will triple the compensation for shopkeeper Li's family, just for those who were killed by Huan Xuan's rebel soldiers. Send slaves, you see..."
Liu Yu turned around and walked out without looking back: "From tomorrow on, this kind of thing will never happen again, not to my brother or to the powerful people in the capital!"
Liu Muzhi shook his head and followed closely. A smile appeared on the corner of Liu Yi's lips, and he looked at the stunned nobles in the hall: "Now, let's talk about these contracts."
When Liu Yu walked out of the basement and walked to Dongshui Pass outside, he closed his eyes. Standing at that empty moment, he suddenly felt a helpless sense of frustration. The fear in the eyes of shopkeeper Liu before he died
The expression of asking for help was always lingering in front of his eyes, and his hand was tightly clenched into a fist, constantly twisting on the bricks at the top of the city.
Liu Muzhi's voice sounded softly behind him: "Jinu, don't blame yourself too much. This is not your fault, or even Xi Le's fault."
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "Are we going to sacrifice two innocent lives just to keep today's agreement?"
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "Even if Xile didn't take action, the Xi family would not be able to let these two people live. And Xile took action in front of these nobles, just to win their trust and tell these nobles that we
The Beifu Army will abide by the old rules and will not overthrow them all at once."
Liu Yu suddenly turned around: "Is the only solution to this problem? Killing people is the only solution? Can't we bring these two people to Liu Yi's house just like I protected Shopkeeper Li?"
Liu Muzhi said coldly: "No, because shopkeeper Li did not seek refuge with other families, but shopkeeper Liu and Xi Fu, who are from the Xi family, betrayed the Xi family here. In the eyes of these noble families,
, this kind of betrayal is absolutely unacceptable."
Liu Yu bit his lip tightly: "I don't agree. Life should not be enslaved and driven by others. This is the right of man as the spirit of all things! No one can decide the life and death of others casually like this!"
Liu Muzhi suddenly laughed: "Jinnu, then what did you rely on to decide the life and death of so many people on the battlefield?"
Liu Yu was stunned. For a moment, he didn't know how to answer this question.
The smile gradually faded from Liu Muzhi's fat face, and he said seriously: "Jinu, you can decide the life and death of others on the battlefield because you have superhuman abilities on the battlefield, and these aristocratic families, they can decide their own
The life and death of the servants of the family lies in their superhuman ability to deal with these people. Whether it is shopkeeper Liu or Xi Fu, no matter how they were born, they are now slaves of the Xi family. If they betray their master, even in broad daylight
Under this condition, they can also be beaten to death in public. This condition is included in the laws of the Jin Dynasty. Servants and servants are like pigs and sheep. You don't know that."
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "The world I want is not like this. No one should be born to be bullied, and should be born to let others decide life and death, just like pigs and sheep."
Liu Muzhi sighed: "This is the way of the world, it is the way of the world for thousands of years, tens of thousands of years. If you want to change this way of the world, then please take control of the power of the world first. If you can decide your own slaves like them,
It's the same as life and death. It determines their life and death. Then you have the ability to change the world, but you don't have it now. Although you are the leader of the rebel army and have entered the capital, you still can't command the world. You still have to follow Liu Yi
, cooperate with He Wuji and others. Liu Yi kills people with his own hands to win the trust of these high-ranking families and make them think that Liu Yi is their kind. In other words, he is competing with you for the dominance of the Beifu Army. Maybe you are already angry because of it.
And you forgot the purpose why the lady asked you to come here!"
Liu Yu said loudly: "If seizing power means sacrificing the lives of innocent people, then I would rather not seize such power. My wife chose me instead of Liu Yi as a true friend because she values this in me. If
I have also become unscrupulous in order to seize power, and one day I will become like those people in the underground. Fatty, please always supervise me and prevent me from taking this path."
Liu Muzhi frowned: "But, if this is the case, if you stick to your true intentions, the price you may pay will be much greater than you think, and you will have to take more detours.
many!"
Liu Yu suddenly laughed: "If you knew that it was an irreversible detour and you couldn't even see the end, Fatty, would you accompany me on this journey?"
Liu Muzhi laughed: "Of course I will, otherwise why would I come with you? Wouldn't it be better if I went to Liu Yi early to join him?"
Liu Yu nodded: "It's good to have a friend like you. I would like to ask you to take care of the funeral affairs of shopkeeper Liu. In addition to the three times the pension you mentioned, I will deduct another five thousand dollars from my salary to give to his family."
Well, after all, I failed to protect them, which is my responsibility, and it is also my guilt that I cannot seek justice for him."
Liu Muzhi said seriously: "Leave these to me. You still have a lot of military affairs to deal with. Tomorrow morning, the official positions and power distribution after Jianyi will be officially announced. Liu Yi will issue the industrial contract below, and you, tomorrow
It is the power of the Jin Dynasty that has been unleashed!"
Liu Yu took a deep breath: "Huan Xuan hasn't been resolved yet. Isn't it a little too early to start talking about merit rewards or promotions?"
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "To award rewards to the soldiers who have made meritorious services and to confer officials on the aristocratic families in the city is not only to distribute power, but more importantly, to stabilize people's hearts. The capital cannot be left without an owner for a day, and those who have contributed to its conquest must not be left alone.
People cannot be rewarded a day later. Even because Huanxuan has not been destroyed, he still has the possibility of counterattack. Therefore, he can only reward the soldiers who established the righteousness this time, and then pardon the people who followed Huanxuan, and only punish the Huan family.
and a few core members, only then can Huan Xuan's fighting spirit be broken down, and only then can the soldiers and people of Jingzhou be less determined to follow Huan Xuan, and reduce the difficulty for us to put him down."
Liu Yu nodded: "What you said makes sense, but I didn't think it through well. Tomorrow, I will announce that Xile and Wuji will lead the troops to pursue Huan Xuan. How are the preparations for the troops, horses, and food?
"
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "Huan Xuan ran away, but the ordnance and food and grass left in Jiankang cannot escape. Don't worry, within a month, we can organize an army of 50,000 to attack Huan Xuan."
Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "One month is too long. In three days, I will set off with Xile, Wuji, and Daogui. Ten thousand horses will march westward along the Yangtze River. Fatty, can you do it?"
Liu Muzhi scratched his head: "Three days, oh, I won't sleep for two more days. Send me two more good cooks. If they can cook braised pork, I have to brainstorm."
