Chapter 4350 Lin Zi stands up to defend his innocence (2)

As soon as Shen Linzi said this, many of the disciples of the aristocratic families at the foot of the steps lowered their heads in shame. Indeed, almost all families are involved in colluding and sponsoring Tianshi Dao. After all, Wu Shi San is

This kind of thing has been made by the alchemy Taoist priests of Tianshi Dao for many years. Now it has become an indispensable thing for almost everyone among the children of major aristocratic families. Along with metaphysics, it pays attention to cultivating immortals and asking questions, and it is even more closely related to Tianshi Dao.

Teachers and Taoists are closely connected. Even now, there are still many disciples of aristocratic families who have contacts with Taoist temples in various places, but they just do not carry the banner of Tianshi Tao. Who can guarantee that these Taoist temples will not become what they were back then in the future?

Tianshi said, they are causing trouble again.

And the questioning voice changed its direction and sounded again: "Humph, Shen Linzi, you don't need to sow discord or change the subject. Your Shen family's business is your Shen family's business. If monsters and thieves cause trouble, we, the wealthy families, will

How many children have died and how much property has been lost. This is a matter known to the world. Just because a family like yours, the Shen family, helps demons and thieves to cause chaos, how much blood debt of the children of our family have been stained on your own hands? You need a sum of money.

Will the pen be cleared?"

Shen Linzi said loudly: "I have never denied this, but everything happens for a reason. When my father was a county magistrate, he was originally dedicated to serving the country. However, in order to build his own army and power, Sima Yuanxian, the prince of Kuaiji, ignored

In the overall situation, the people of Wu were forcibly recruited and sent away, and they were called happy subjects. They also strictly ordered the officials in each county to carry out such orders. If they could not recruit enough people, these officials would be held accountable. Dear noble families

My disciples, you have only seen the suffering that your family and relatives suffered after the demon thieves rebelled and raised their troops. Have you ever thought about how many people in Wu suffered the same suffering because of this order?"

Xie Hun curled his lips and said: "When the conscription order was issued, the manors belonging to the major aristocratic families had to send out corresponding men. My Xie family's manor did not stay out of the matter. I remember that my aunt was still thinking about it at that time.

I personally went to Shining Mountain Residence in Kuaiji to be responsible for choosing happy family members for the country, and nothing unexpected happened."

Shen Linzi sighed: "If every village is like Mrs. Xie's and cares about the overall situation, and if all the children of the aristocratic families are as kind to the tenant farmers as Mrs. Xie's family, how could such a shocking change happen?"

"It's because most of the children of aristocratic families have taken advantage of the imperial court's resettlement policy for refugees, forged household registrations, and trapped the people who were supposed to be resettled in their own estates into their own manors for many years, making them slaves for generations!

"

"These people are called villagers and tenants, but in fact they are just serfs who have worked for the major families for generations. Even future generations have no hope of turning around. Their names only appear in the internal records of the major families.

However, they never appear in the official male statistics. For Da Jin, they have never really lived!"

Xie Hun's expression changed and he said in a deep voice: "Shen Linzi, you are so brave. You dare to slander and attack our wealthy family here. Who gave you the courage to be so bold?"

Liu Yu's voice sounded calmly, not high, but everyone could hear it clearly: "Xie Shangshu, isn't what General Shen said the truth? For so many years, we have only been talking about the Tianshi Dao Rebellion.

The reason is attributed to the ambitions of Sun En and others, but they never review what they have done improperly. If you only know how to blame others and don't know how to reflect on yourself, then the next big chaos will be right in front of you."

Xie Hun's face turned green and red. He never dared to directly contradict Liu Yu, so he could only remain silent. But this time, all the disciples of the aristocratic family lowered their heads and sighed. This cruel fact was revealed by Liu Yu.

If Yu personally admits it, then they can no longer make any refutation, because they themselves also know that this is the truth.

Shen Linzi said seriously: "Back then, because my father had to carry out these conscription orders, several big families in the county refused to hand over the relatives they were supposed to provide for various reasons. Instead, they forced my father to go to other ordinary villages.

People were forcibly arrested in Wuxing. Within ten days, there were countless human tragedies. Wives and children were separated, and family members were separated. And those high-ranking families who had killed thousands of people actually took this opportunity to make a fortune and borrow money at high interest rates.

Give those people money and food, let them hand over their fields, and become their villagers to gain their protection and not be subject to military conscription."

"It was because my father had witnessed too many such tragedies that he appealed to Wang Ningzhi, who was the county governor at the time, to plead for the people and request a postponement of the recruitment of Le family members. However, Wang Ningzhi scolded him in public. He was confused for a while. After returning, he was beaten by Sun En

Bewitched by the special envoy sent, he simply joined the army of demon thieves, because the demon thieves said at that time that the leaders of all evil were just Prince Kuaiji and his son. The leader Sun Tai was beheaded by them for no reason at that time, and his whole family was executed. He himself had a reputation in Wudi.

A large number of scholars felt that they had been wronged. Under this situation, everyone believed that Tianshi Dao would do justice for heaven, clear the emperor's side, and revitalize the Jin Dynasty. It was under such circumstances that my father took our brothers to join the demon bandits.

"

Many people began to talk to each other. Obviously, they understood and sympathized with the fate of the Shen family, and the voice sounded again: "Humph, even if the court's treatment was unfair, you can't rebel and cause rebellion.

The reason is that you said that the imperial court's conscription order caused many tragedies, but no matter how tragic it was, there were monsters and thieves causing trouble, the ground was bare for thousands of miles, the bones were exposed in the wild, and there was no rooster crowing for thousands of miles. Is it so miserable? Marshal Liu said before that when he went to quell the rebellion,

Were the human tragedies we saw done by Sima Yuanxian, or were they done by you?"

Shen Linzi said solemnly: "Although my late father was confused for a while and entered the bandit camp by mistake, he soon discovered that the monster bandits were brutal and cruel, and he was definitely not a wise master worthy of being entrusted. Therefore, he knew that he had made a big mistake and it was difficult to look back.

, he secretly asked the five of us brothers to go into the mountains and build docks to protect ourselves, take in the homeless people, and wait until the war is over before making atonement for our sins to the court. As for himself, he deliberately asked to serve as a guard, but he was in the official position.

When the army arrived, we waited to be killed in order to pay for his sins. This was the experience of our Shen family during the Tianshi Dao Rebellion. When our brothers surrendered to Marshal Liu and confessed, they all made it clear. If we really

The crimes are so heinous, how could Marshal Liu forgive us and take us in?"

Liu Yu nodded and looked at Xie Hun: "Xie Shangshu, what General Shen said is all true. I, Liu Yu, am not Mr. Dong Guo, and I will not let go of people who have committed heinous crimes. The Shen family originally rebelled.

They did not commit too many blood debts like other demon thief tribes. They formed their own army and tried their best not to harm the people. They also took in many people in troubled times. They could be regarded as atonement for their sins. Father Shen and several brothers Kang went there.

He died to atone for his sins, and the five tigers of the Shen family voluntarily surrendered to the army, so of course I should pardon them."
