Xu Xianzhi's face looked a little ugly, and he shook his head and said: "Jinnu, it's okay for you to say this to us, but if it reaches the ears of the noble family, even the ears of Mrs. Xie and Queen Wang who have always supported you, I'm afraid
It will cause a complete antagonism between you and the noble family."
Liu Yu said coldly: "Even if they don't like to hear it, I have to say this, because it is the fact. The Xie family, including the Xie family, have been landowners for many years and have deprived countless tenants of their land.
Let them actually become the serfs of these high-ranking families for many generations. Isn't your Xu family doing the same thing? Didn't those renegade guards you just mentioned come from this way?"
The corners of Xu Xianzhi's mouth twitched slightly, trying to refute, but in the end he just sighed and shook his head silently.
Liu Yi waved his hand and said: "Jinnu, you are good at everything, but you are too naive about these things. All things are born, and there are kings and elders after them. From the emperor to the nobles of the aristocratic families, you are used to represent the herdsmen.
, Ordinary people, their livelihood is very difficult. In the event of famine or war, it is difficult to save their fields. They can only entrust their fields to be sold to wealthy families and become tenant farmers. This has been an ironclad fact for hundreds of years and is also the way of the world.
If you want to use your own efforts to change the entire world, I advise you to think twice before you act."
Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "Not to mention whether I want to change or not, at least Tianshi Dao once made these tenant farmers believe that they could change this world. Although this was an evil path, it could bring benefits to the people at that time.
This kind of hope, so the rebellion of Tianshi Dao can be said to be a rallying cry, and there are a lot of followers, it is not just the fanning of a few monsters and thieves, or the coercion of the people."
Xu Xianzhi said dissatisfied: "According to your statement, today's demon thieves once again launched an army and attacked Jiankang City, with an army of 200,000. Could it be that the world we have built over the years has also made it impossible for the people to live?
, also makes them willing to join the demon thief rebels?"
Liu Yu sighed, his eyes becoming lonely: "Since we succeeded in Jianyi, has there been any big change in the world? It is still a world of aristocratic families, and the gentry controls everything. The common people are forced by heavy taxes to sell their fields and seek refuge.
The family is still not much different from twenty years ago. In the newly conquered Jiangzhou and Jingzhou, we still have to rely on the local gentry and landlords to control the people. When monsters and thieves come, our army is defeated and the officials
They fled, and the demon thieves distributed these lands to the rebellious people, making them think that these lands became their spoils of war, so more people joined."
"There are also those powerful landowners who are the local hegemons. Many of them have taken the initiative to rebel and provide troops, manpower, food, grass and weapons in exchange for the demon thieves not seizing their properties. This is because we are unable to defend the territory militarily.
Politically, it is impossible to make the people live in solidarity with the country, and they even think that following the demon thieves is more beneficial and has a better future."
Liu Yi said coldly: "It's because we were too kind during the last Western Expedition, taking care of these gentry landowners who surrendered to us, and retaining their territory. However, this time the monsters and thieves made trouble, and they once again took advantage of the situation.
Send slaves, leave the matter of the Western Expedition to me, and this time, I will let them understand the consequences of surrendering and rebelling again!"
Liu Yu waved his hand: "Xile, Jing Yang has been in conflict for more than a hundred years, and the Huan family has a strong foundation in Jingzhou. How can it be so easy for you to eliminate its influence in one battle? In less than ten years, two
After ten years of governance, the scholars and people of Jingzhou and Jiangzhou will not change their minds. If you only want to rely on massacre to establish your authority, it will only accelerate the departure of these places."
Liu Yi gritted his teeth: "Applying both kindness and power is the right way. It will only give these powerful and unprincipled people unprincipled benevolence and righteousness, and they will not be held accountable for their rebellion. They will only become more arrogant in the future, and they will not be punished for their rebellion and rebellion anyway."
, then you will rebel again next time you have the chance. Jinu, just like you let go of Lu Xun and Xu Daofu, thinking that they would feel your kindness of not killing and stop causing trouble, but what is the result?"
Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "As I said before, the fundamental reason for letting Lu Xun and Xu Daofu go is that I don't have a naval warship, so I can't keep the demon thieves and eliminate them, so I can only do it as a favor. On the other hand,
This was also done to show to some of his troops who wanted to turn around and to show that the court had given them a chance. However, if Lu Xun and Xu Daofu were still stubborn and wanted to rebel again, then some loyal men might kill the two thieves.
, raise your head and come down."
Liu Yi laughed: "In the end, they floated away across the sea. Although they no longer troubled the land of Sanwu, they crossed the sea to Guangzhou and took advantage of Huanxuan's defeat to capture Guangzhou. You let them go again and returned the favor.
Xun was appointed governor of Guangzhou, and Xu Daofu was appointed prime minister, giving them a chance to breathe."
Liu Yu sighed: "What else can I do? You had just conquered Huan in the west, and faced Huan Zhen's counterattack. After years of war, the number of households in Jingzhou was less than 100,000, and the land of Wu was completely destroyed. Under such circumstances
, can we continue to fight? Instead of taking the opportunity to stabilize Lu Xun, we can find opportunities to develop ourselves. Is there a better way? I let Wuji stay in Jiangzhou, not just to let him recuperate and find opportunities to destroy him.
A demon thief?"
Liu Yi sneered and said: "As a result, you went to the Northern Expedition to Southern Yan by yourself, and then provoked Wuji who also wanted to make contributions and rushed forward greedily. However, he was ambushed by the demon thieves who were supported by the Tiandao Alliance, and was defeated and died. In the end, it resulted in
Today’s big disaster, slave slave, do you dare to say that this was not caused by you?”
Liu Yu said with enthusiasm: "Yes, you are right. This is a disaster that I, Liu Yu, planted out of desperation. Therefore, today I should personally atone for my sins and eliminate this disaster completely, right?"
Liu Yi gritted his teeth: "You are the first person in Jin Dynasty and the actual ruler. At this time, you should stay in Jiankang and command the overall situation, while I will be the general to fight against the demon thieves."
Liu Yu shook his head: "Now that the foreign troubles have been temporarily suppressed, the most important thing in the overall situation is to eliminate the demon thieves. Therefore, I will personally command this expedition, and the generals from Zhengyan will follow. This matter in the capital, especially with the high-ranking officials from the family behind,
You, Xile, have full authority to handle the relationship between the family, and Xianzhi, as prime minister, can cooperate with you to resolve this matter. Also, this time to protect Jiankang, major aristocratic families, including tens of thousands of people that your brother Xile has managed for many years.
The underground forces have all enlisted in the army, and you will need to put more thought into dealing with these people. Xile and Xianzhi, I can rest assured that you are doing the work, everything in this city will be troublesome to you two."
