"No need to have hundreds, no need to have hundreds." Lei Yuan smiled bitterly: "With my skills, it is probably enough for the soldiers of the Arsenal to win. If the lord allows me to arrange my funeral, it would be easier..."

The reason why Zhuge Liang brought Lei Yuan to him was to show that he did not agree with Liu Zhang and Zhang Lu's approach to dealing with Lei Yuan, so as to avoid the serious general of the Jingzhou army from having a grudge against the military advisor General.

However, without saying a few words, the king and his minister complained to each other. Lei Yuan was watching the scene and felt like he was like a light bulb that was sandwiched between a couple in his previous life, which was extremely embarrassing.

In that case, he suddenly took a break without any help, so he had to sit upright and hold his breath, as if he was clay-shaped wooden body.

Unexpectedly, he suddenly heard Liu Bei mention his dissatisfaction with the powerful, and Zhuge Liang suggested that he might as well kill Lei Yuan first... Lei Yuan began to feel that it was a mistake to follow Zhuge Liang rashly. At this moment, he should have been with his father-in-law outside the yard to show his diligence.

His self-deprecating self-deprecation greatly alleviated the originally serious atmosphere in the hall.

Liu Bei himself also felt a little cramped.

In front of Jingzhou's top tyrants, talking about weakening the powerful forces is a rare mistake for Liu Bei, who has always been cunning. Obviously, this dispute with Zhuge Liang was also very hard for Liu Bei, so he lost his sense of propriety. If Zhuge Liang hadn't made a joke immediately, he would have been afraid that he would have caused suspicion of the monarch and his ministers in the future and would have been difficult to restore his trust.

At this time, since Lei Yuan laughed at himself as a normal skill, Liu Bei pretended to be angry and said, "Xuzhi, I heard that Zilongpo had taught you martial arts before, why can't he be able to defeat an armored soldier? The warriors who galloped on the battlefield could not do this! Before returning to Jingzhou, you take the time to come again, and I will give you some advice in person!"

Lei Yuan walked with the water and stood up and said happily: "I heard for a long time that my lord is good at swordsmanship and fighting. If I get the teachings, that would be great!"

The two of them answered each other and Lei Yuan said goodbye.

Liu Bei thought for a while and said, "Xuzhi should stay. Since you have talked about this topic, you might as well make it open and honest. The Lei family in Lujiang is now the most powerful and powerful clan in Jingzhou. You can also talk about your thoughts when you need it. Haha, there are no knives and axes on both sides of the hall, just talk freely."

“Yes, yes.”

"Kong Ming, why can't we take this opportunity to eradicate a group of strong Yizhou clans? Please express your opinions."

Zhuge Liang stood up: "As the lord said, our great Han Dynasty has been established for four hundred years, and it is difficult to control the powerful. In modern times, the powerful have annexed land, cultivated power, and tyrannical tyrannical localities, and even coerced the chiefs of prefectures and counties to fight against the court. The common people were forced to suffer from difficulties, from difficulties to suffering, from family subdistricts to sorrow everywhere. From this point of view, the powerful and reckless acts are really a stubborn disease of the great Han Dynasty."

He glanced at Lei Yuan who continued to smile bitterly and said jokingly: "It's like the situation in Yizhou. Since Liu Yan and Liu Zhang have been in power for generations, people from Shu have been tyrannical and self-indulgent, and the way of the ruler and ministers has gradually replaced them. However, why is this happening? The Han Dynasty cannot govern the powerful because the Han Dynasty is not strong enough and cannot defeat the powerful? The Liu family two Muslims in Yizhou cannot govern the powerful because the Liu family two Muslims are afraid of the powerful and dare not attack them?"

"That's not going to happen."

"In my opinion, the reason why the tyrants and powerful people are not related to the power of the court, nor to the courage of the rulers is just because the laws are incomplete and the law enforcement is not powerful, and they are used to using favor to satisfy the greed of the powerful. Unfortunately, if you favor them for your position, you will be cheap; if you follow them for your kindness, you will be slow, and in the end, you will be raised a group of worms full of selfish interests."

"Since that's the case, shouldn't it be eradicated as soon as possible?"

"There are also powerful clans and heroes in Jingzhou. Among the shogunate, the Ma family, Xiang family, Xi family, Huang family, etc., are all deeply rooted clans. Why did the lord use them as officials and military generals? They never thought of eradicating them? For example, the lord's family, where Xuzhi was located, led tens of thousands of disciples, thousands of tribes, and the land spanned several counties. Why did the lord still want to continue as his sons and nephews, and he entrusted them with important responsibilities? All because Jingzhou's governance is based on rules and laws. Those who have legislative orders use private rights to abolish private rights. Once the laws are implemented, the private rights will be abolished."

"This is reasonable! Say..." Liu Bei suddenly showed a look of memories: "I still remember that Xu Zhi came from Jianghuai thousands of miles away from Jianghuai that day. I went to Miankou to welcome him. I slept with Xu Zhi that night and discussed state affairs. Xu Zhi once asked me how to view the wealthy family. I said that this was a hundred years of bad policies and could not be governed overnight. As long as the wealthy family was slightly restrained and did not cross the boundaries defined by the Left General's Mansion, both of them could endure the country. If the troubled times could be pacified in the future, I believe that the court would not be able to tolerate several clans."

Lei Yuan bowed and said, "The lord did say this at that time. In fact, in recent years, the lord's tolerance and kindness towards my Lujiang Lei family has exceeded expectations."

"Those are normal rewards and rewards, so don't take them to heart." Liu Bei waved his hand and suddenly laughed: "I thought it very clearly at that time. Now Xindeyizhou is strong and has a strong army, and I forgot it for a moment."

Zhuge Liang said in a deep voice: "The wise men said that the craftsman's eyes and mind are in the same way, but the rules must be used as the rule; the superiors' wisdom and quickness in the matter must be compared with the laws of the previous kings. Therefore, the rule of the country is only done by law. We do not need to pursue the actions of the indigenous tyrants of Yizhou before. As long as we go from now on, we must use the law to limit the indigenous tyrants of Yizhou, and we must use the titles and the power to give both kindness and power, and we must be in harmony with the upper and lower levels, we can limit the indigenous tyrants of Yizhou. We can further form a widespread flow of scholars between the two states of Jingyi. By then, the lord will be above and use both the middle and will naturally be invincible."

Liu Bei thought about it again and again.

He felt that Zhuge Liang's approach was indeed not as straightforward as Pang Tong, and the effect was not so fast. But if you weigh the pros and cons, you would seem to be more thorough and less backlash. As for the cumbersome and complexity of the process, since it was left to Zhuge Liang to do it, you didn't have to worry about it yourself.

He was finally a determined person, and he decided: "Then do this. I will release the arrested powerful gentry one after another. After detaining them for the past few days, it should be possible for them to understand the situation a little and not act randomly anymore. The subsequent declaration of the law and the restoration of order must be troubled by Kong Ming."

Speaking of this, he suddenly frowned: "But, Military Advisor Pang..."

"I will discuss carefully with Shi Yuan and formulate a comprehensive plan."

"good."

Zhuge Liang and Lei Yuan said goodbye.

The two walked all the way to the main entrance of the Yizhou Mu Mansion, and Lei Yuan met Zhao Yun again. Zhuge Liang joked a few times. Because it was on duty, Zhao Yun asked Lei Yuan to summon the troops first and not stay in the official residence that night, so he went directly to Zhao Yun's house to rest.

As soon as he said this, someone suddenly stepped into the mansion. This man was about thirty years old, not tall, with thin cheeks, and obviously raised eyes, with a little blood, giving people a feeling of being overly energetic. It was Pang Tong who came.

Lei Yuan immediately stopped talking.
