Yu Yue's expression changed and she lost her voice: "Mr. Tao, you..."
Tao Yuanming said coldly: "Yu Gong, the truth is hard to hear and uncomfortable, but this is the most likely reality. In fact, you also know that if we can't turn over by regaining military exploits this time, I'm afraid that the Yu family's status will not be guaranteed in the future.
Aristocratic families have always beaten the weak, like the Wang family in Taiyuan. After Wang Yu and his son were killed for offending Liu Yu, the entire Wang family's century-old property was divided among other families, and your Yu family also took it.
A lot of advantages. If the reverse happens this time, after the Yu family has exhausted their reserves of food, grass and manpower, the result is that their private soldiers are robbed by others, and they have not made any contribution but are dismissed from office by the captured army, then what will happen to the Yu family tomorrow?
, is the Wang family’s yesterday.”
Yu Yue's forehead was already covered with beads of sweat, and his eyes were red: "No, no, my Yu family is a top-notch family, with sons and nephews all over the south of the Yangtze River, and countless family properties. Even if they don't make any contributions, they won't be uprooted.
, Wang family, the Wang family confronted Liu Yu head-on, killed Liu Yu’s brothers, openly violated Liu Yu’s new law, and then..."
When he said this, he suddenly covered his mouth with a look of horror on his face, because Yu Yue suddenly realized that what he was doing was even worse than Wang Yu's death-seeking behavior back then.
And ah.
Tao Yuanming sneered and said: "It seems that Yu Gong has also realized that you have joined forces with other big aristocratic families to protect the interests of the aristocratic family and the noble family. You have already offended Liu Yu, and even forced him to make compromises to delay his
The implementation of the New Deal. If it were not for Liu Yu and Liu Muzhi's lack of sufficient officials and talents to govern the grassroots, I am afraid that your fate would have been the same as that of the Wang family in Taiyuan."
"What's more, you, Mr. Yu, still joined the Black Hand Universe and became the guard of Qinglong. You also have a close relationship with Liu Tingyun. This time, you have something to do with me, a disloyal person to the country. One after another, none of it is enough for you in Mu Zhi.
Brother, did you uproot your Yu family here?"
Yu Yue gritted her teeth and breathed heavily through her nose: "This, this is all what you taught me. You rebuilt the Black Hand Universe. I was dragged in by Xu Xianzhi when I was confused. If I want to be punished, I have to punish Xu Xianzhi as well.
.”
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "Yugong, don't be anxious or angry. Marshal Liu has already ordered a pardon for the Black Hand Qiankun matter. From now on, the Black Hand Qiankun can exist as an officially recognized formal organization. Otherwise, where is Tao Gong in Jiankang?"
How can you recuperate in such a comfortable way? I will be serving as a lieutenant for a long time."
Yu Yue's expression softened slightly, but he still had some doubts: "But isn't Mr. Tao still under house arrest? He is under the supervision of Meng Chang himself."
Liu Muzhi said sternly: "That's because of his affair with the Later Qin Dynasty. Think about it, Meng Chang himself is the guard of Black Hand Qiankun. If he comes to look after Tao Gong, doesn't it just mean that the Black Hand Qiankun matter has been pardoned?"
"
Yu Yue relaxed his brows and said with a smile: "I know it. Marshal Liu has always been lenient towards others. Brother Mu, you are right. My Yu family soldiers can consider asking Brother Jinu to send a general."
Commander, Mr. Tao, after all..."
Tao Yuanming sneered and said: "Yu Gong, you have become really fast. Now your last unit of Yu's family troops was handed over to the command of Marshal Liu's good apprentice Zhu Chaoshi. It seems that you are very satisfied with the result.
?”
The muscles on Yu Yue's face twitched, his eyes became gloomy again, and he stopped talking.
Liu Muzhi said calmly: "Tao Gong, it's useless for you to scare Yu Gong like this. The imperial court has borrowed the Yu family's private army, and it will be returned in the end, even if it's the two or three thousand tribesmen last time."
, I will also negotiate with Liu Zhengxi to let them return to the Yu family. Even if these people are unwilling to go back, we will select the able-bodied among the prisoners and return them to Yu Gong in equal or even double numbers. We will never let him
He's at a loss. As for your Luo Longsheng, well, it's possible that the army gave it to him and everything was gone in the end."
"Yu Gong, in these troubled times, soldiers are the generals, and the soldiers are the grass-headed kings. You know this kind of thing best. Our court recruits soldiers in the name of the government. We will not just take possession of them without returning them, but
It’s hard to say for other generals who change their positions repeatedly.”
Yu Yue hesitated a little, his eyes sparkling, and he fell into thinking.
Tao Yuanming said coldly: "Yugong, you'd better understand one thing, that is, your position is opposite to Liu Yu and Brother Mu. What they want is a world without aristocratic families in the future.
All the land belongs to the imperial court and the country, and then it is distributed to the people in exchange for the people paying taxes and levies in return. If this is done, then no matter how powerful or powerful the family is, it will
The value of existence has been lost. You, your clan, and your nephews’ current titles will only be slowly lost. What’s the point of a small profit?”
"And my position is the same as yours. Luo Longsheng is just a warrior. All he wants is to have enough power to lead troops to protect himself. It doesn't matter whether he is your army or not. After he leads troops and performs meritorious deeds, there will be
Once you have established a garrison, you can recruit your own troops, and your private army, after earning enough military merit for Luo Longsheng, your Duke Yu, and the Yu family's nephews, can also be managed by your Yu family themselves. Luo Longsheng has been promoted and transferred to other places.
That is, with the power of your Yu family, can't you still defeat a small military leader?"
Yu Yue nodded with satisfaction and said: "That's right. It seems that this is the best way. Brother Mu, I think everyone should take a step back. Don't think of us as enemies. The personalities of you and Marshal Liu
Ideal, let's implement it in the newly recovered areas in the north first. Our family in Wudi has been under the rule for more than a hundred years. If we want to change it all at once, I'm afraid it will cause chaos. Didn't you agree with Mrs. Xie and the Queens on this before?
?"
Liu Muzhi said coldly: "It is true that we have a consensus with you, the Wu family, and we are also willing to recognize and protect your inherent interests in Wu. But this time, although it is your Yu family who sent the troops, you will not be able to command them."
However, the power, or the actual control of this army, fell into the hands of Tao Gong and his allies, so it was not within the scope of our last agreement."
Having said this, Liu Muzhi looked at Tao Yuanming: "Mr. Tao, if you can make me trust you enough and let go of my guard against you, then maybe we can talk about this matter. Otherwise, as long as my words count, then you can
I will never allow this transaction with Yu Gong to happen. Now, I want to see how you can make me trust you." ()
