"How to kill and how much to kill is not the question you are considering now. We need to wait for us to go through and conduct on-site investigation to determine it, but the number of people will not be small." Man Chong shook his head and said.

After all, the results of the investigation are already disgusting.

"Didn't you notice it when Chen Zichuan passed by Yuzhou two years ago?" Yuan Shu asked in confusion. Since it was like this now, nothing should have happened two years ago. Since it happened, it shouldn't have happened. Chen Xi didn't know about this.

"No, because when I passed by Yuzhou, I only went to Runan, and Runan was the foundation of your Yuan family, even if the main force left..." Man Chong shook his head and said.

"More importantly, this kind of concatenation is difficult to detect before it breaks out. If we had not made a preconceived judgment and conducted a detailed investigation, it would be difficult to say whether we could notice the current situation." Liu Ye appeared from the other side and spoke with a little explanation.

"Tsk! When did the Han Dynasty's internal control ability be so low?" Liu Zhang said disdainfully.

Why is it so low? How to say it? Because the position and concern of the issue has not been covered up in this aspect before. Economic development and social progress can cover up most problems, but when the speed of economic development stagnates, the problems that were originally covered will be exposed one by one, which is an inevitable situation.

It is obvious that due to the current management system, the previously rapidly developing economy has begun to stagnate due to the existence of the ceiling, even if Chen Xi knows how to further increase the ceiling, increase the total economic output, and maintain social stability.

But in a short time, these plans remain on paper. Even if Chen Xi ran fast enough to avoid many potholes, it is inevitable that he would need to make up for the lessons. Some things cannot be avoided by experience. Just like now, when Chen Xi got the information given by Guo Jia, he actually understood what happened. The more detailed the information, the more appropriate Chen Xi understood it.

This is just a problem covered up by the rapid development in the past, and it has been a total outbreak until now.

Although it is essentially a power vacuum and a lack of bureaucratic management, the rapid development of these forces is not because of the economic level that everyone's attention has been relaxed in other aspects of supervision.

A true portrayal of the spiral of history. All ancient history is modern history. The only lesson that mankind has learned from history is not to absorb any lessons.

In short, this is a mess, but it should be thankful that this era was an imperial system, and Liu Bei had the foundation to control the middle and lower classes, and Chen Xi had the foundation to restrain the national finances, so even if this level of trouble arises, there is no need to look forward to it like later generations to gradually eliminate the influence. Now, it is just a matter of doing it again.

That's right, compared to Chen Xi who was worried about Li You and others, Chen Xi was actually as hard as iron when he saw this. If it was a small-scale connection and a group of parties for personal gain, Chen Xi would at most be a blow, but at this scale, the goal was actually very clear.

After all, the large-scale connection between middle-level bureaucrats, even if the goal is to cover up at the beginning, in the process of connection, the ever-expanding bureaucratic system and the ever-expanding power monster will inevitably drive these people to launch an impact on the higher level.

This is an inevitable thrust, just like the so-called dragon. After reaching that step, there is actually something that can’t help it. It’s okay to move forward, but it’s basically impossible to stop and stop. Then what you did before will be done in vain.

Isn’t this the so-called gambler?

So when Chen Xi saw the investigation report submitted by Guo Jia, he was actually ready to kill people, because this matter was inevitable. At this scale, even if those people were exposed, they would definitely want to fight with Chang'an.

Local confrontation with the central government is not common, but not rare.

"Zichuan." Liu Bei came to see Chen Xi with a pot of wine, but did not bring anyone else, or it should be said that Liu Bei's guards were everywhere.

"Ah, Duke Xuande." Chen Xi stood up and greeted, obviously not in high spirits.

"You already know the matter?" Liu Bei looked at Chen Xi and asked.

"I understand, and I will only know more about it than Fengxiao." Chen Xi sighed.

"How is it possible? Fengxiao holds the internal intelligence organization of the Han Dynasty in his hand. How could you know more about it than he did?" Liu Bei said with a smile, but Chen Xi didn't laugh, just looked at Liu Bei like this, and then Liu Bei couldn't laugh anymore, "You're not kidding."

"After knowing the matter itself, I know that there will be greater turmoil in the future." Chen Xi said calmly, "Actually, Duke Xuande, you should know best. I don't care much about killing people, but there is a saying that punishes the past and prevents the future, cures the disease and saves people. Killing cannot solve the problem. That head is not a leek, and it can grow after being cut, it is just a waste."

"Yes." Liu Bei nodded. He and Chen Xi have known each other for so many years, but they are actually very clear about Chen Xi's nature. Chen Xi looks gentle and has a strong side inside. If you don't kill indiscriminately, it doesn't mean you won't kill. In fact, Chen Xi just hopes that he will kill someone who deserves to die.

If you really want to start, the battle between Chen Xi and Li You against Han Xin has already explained the problem. Chen Xi can regard the people as a long list of numbers, or more realistic. In Chen Xi's eyes, these are actually resources, whether they are the people or the bureaucrats.

Therefore, using certain methods to kill these people is actually consuming resources, so Chen Xi only wants to kill him to see if it is worth it.

"How to say this matter, it's probably my negligence." Chen Xi picked up the wine pot that Liu Bei put on the table and poured a glass of wine for both of them. "I actually understand a lot of things, and I also know that I also considered it when I was doing it, but I always think, save money first, invest resources on the other side, and comprehensively evaluate..."

This is Chen Xi’s biggest shortcoming. His comprehensive assessment is beneficial to the country, but not to everyone. How to say this kind of advantage and harm? If it is completely unavoidable, there is actually nothing to say. The problem is that Chen Xi can actually avoid it.

"So you think you are wrong?" Liu Bei asked at Chen Xi.

Chen Xi thought about it, was silent for a long time and nodded, "No matter what, it was already wrong when I chose to save one first and invest resources on the other side."

"Is that true?" Liu Bei's expression remained unchanged, "When did you actually get wrong?"

Chen Xi was silent and just picked up the wine glass. He didn't know how to answer Liu Bei's sharp question.

"Do you still remember what you said?" Liu Bei held Chen Xi down and understood Chen Xi's expression very well. The other party's current mentality was a little disappointed, but what was there to lose?

"I have said too many things, and I can't remember some of them. There are many things that suit the situation. I don't know which sentence to say." Chen Xi did not feel in harmony with Liu Bei, and did not know what Liu Bei wanted to say.

"You guy, I don't know what to say to you!" Liu Bei didn't know how to describe Chen Xi. Sometimes this guy really makes people speechless.

"I agreed at the beginning that the things in this world are wrong because of me, Liu Bei!" Liu Bei said very freely, "The reason why I, Liu Bei, can sit here is very simple, because I am aware of the sins of this world. When Jia Wen and the other party returned to Mount Tai, they asked me why this world is like this. You laughed and said yes, this world is because of me, Liu Bei."

At that time, Liu Bei did not react to what the Q&A of Jia Xu and Chen Xi meant, but as the territory expanded and the power expanded, and after defeating Yuan Shao, Liu Bei finally understood the sentence completely.

Whether it is good or bad in the world, whether the bureaucrats are right or wrong, he should bear it. Without the guilt of all directions, the crime is in my courage, there will be no awareness of shouldering the Central Plains and carrying it with all your strength. Now Liu Bei has this courage.

For Liu Bei, isn’t it because Yuzhou and Jizhou were taken away by top families such as the Yuan family, which led to a power vacuum, and were deceived by experts and covered by bureaucrats, resulting in a large-scale connection that originally took longer to occur. Is it now taking shape?

Is this a problem? Yes, this is a problem, but this problem is not impossible to solve. As for the crime, I, Liu Bei, are not dead yet, and you, Chen Zichuan, don’t need to take care of it.

"Duke Xuande, I'm still very brave." Chen Xi paused for a moment when he heard this, but then he smiled again, and the more he laughed, he became more and more arrogant. Finally, he looked at Liu Bei, "Thank you, I, sometimes I think a little too much."

"Your problem is that you are too smart." Liu Bei said with emotion, "You know everything. Most things are like there is no secret to you. As long as you see the beginning, you can infer the middle and the end. This is a good thing and a bad thing."

"Without this ability, it will be difficult for me to operate the entire country. What I want to hand over to Kong Ming is a system that Kong Ming has obtained and can operate successfully. Compared with the current construction process, a complete cycle will be understood and summarized at that time, and naturally I will understand everything." Chen Xi's expression seemed very serious at this moment.

"You will do whatever you want. I don't understand anyway, you can do it yourself." Liu Bei said very generously. He was actually very angry and wanted to kill him, but when he heard the rumor about Li You before he was imprisoned, he was even more worried about Chen Xi, so he came to see Chen Xi first.
