Chapter 116 The Jiangnan Family
Unaware of the discussion outside, Zou Yu came to the study and asked Fang Xuanling to sit down and asked, "Xuanling, what do you think?"
"My subordinates think this is a good thing. Pei Shiqing is from the Wenxi Pei family. If my subordinates guessed correctly, the people he brought should all be descendants of the aristocratic family. They are here to invest. This is the consistent style of the aristocratic family, investing in many aspects."
, they never put their eggs in one basket, which means that some aristocratic families may be optimistic about the general." Fang Xuanling said.
"Then should these people use it or not?" Zou Yu frowned and asked. From the bottom of his heart, he was disgusted with these so-called aristocratic families. It can be seen from Yuan Taizuo, Zhong Zijin and others that they are all selfish.
People who are interested in profit are also those who like to fool the people and control the local area. They are often the cancer of the country.
"Use, why don't you use it? Don't waste the labor that comes to your door. Although there are many unscrupulous people from the aristocratic families, most of them are pretty good. It's just that the general has military power, so there is no need to worry about accidents.
When we march into the Central Plains, there will definitely be many aristocratic families who will arrange for people to come and join us secretly. In this case, it is better to leave it in the open." Fang Xuanling persuaded with a smile.
"Yes, it can be used to manage some unimportant places. If you don't have the talent, just kick it out. You can just handle this matter Xuanling." Zou Yu nodded in agreement. He knew that he could not completely avoid the aristocratic family, so he could only try his best to avoid it.
And you can use more collaterals, which is somewhat similar to the push order. The same cake can always be divided and disintegrated if more people divide it.
"My subordinate understands."
"What about the imperial edict?"
"My subordinates think that this is just because the emperor was ill and sought medical treatment in a hurry. He wanted someone to turn the tide. However, the general is not from a big family and has little relationship with the family, so the emperor wants you to suppress the Guanlong family."
"Guanlong family?"
"Yes, after the Guanlong family established the Eight-Pillar Kingdom in the Western Wei Dynasty, the eight Guanlong families almost controlled the imperial court. They became prime ministers when they joined, and generals when they left. They married each other, formed a huge interest group, and controlled a large number of people.
of land, wealth, and manpower.
Like the Five Surnames and Qiwang, the place only knew about the aristocratic families and not the imperial court. The emperor built the canal to connect the north and the south and use the Jiangnan aristocratic families to contain the Guanlong aristocratic family. However, the effect was not obvious, so many Guanlong aristocratic families were recruited to conquer Goguryeo.
This may not necessarily mean weakening the manpower," Fang Xuanling explained.
"It turns out there are many reasons, but it's a pity that the emperor is too impatient."
"Yes, the emperor was too impatient and wanted to completely suppress the family, which naturally aroused everyone's resistance and rebelled against him. Therefore, the emperor felt that he could not control the court, so he went south to Jiangdu. But in this way, I am afraid there will be no more
The opportunity has come to return to the north. If my subordinates guessed correctly, the people coming are either the children of the northern aristocratic families who followed them to Jiangdu, or the people from the Jiangnan aristocratic families.
Because if the Jiangnan family wants to rise again, surpass the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes, and extend its tentacles of strength into the north, it must find a new backer." Fang Xuanling continued.
"Pei Shiqing is the former?"
"Yes, the Pei family is headed by Pei Shiju, the Duke of Wenxi County, with Pei Shiqing, Pei Ji, Pei Renji and others as branches. As everyone knows, Pei Ji is a good friend of Tang Guogong Li Yuan; Pei Renji is a general in the army; Pei Shiju followed the emperor to Jiangdu. This
The next time Pei Shiqing came to seek refuge with the general, it meant that Wenxi County Duke also valued the general."
"Haha, it doesn't matter whether you value it or not. What matters is how strong the support is. It's not a good thing to get something without paying for it." Zou Yu said with a smile.
"The Duke of Wenxi County must have said a lot of good things to the emperor, and with Pei Shiqing here, the general's march westward will be less troublesome."
"Well, let's go and see who are here."
"General please!"
"hehe!"
The two of them returned to the hall in a good mood.
"Mr. Pei, why don't you introduce all the heroes?" Zou Yu asked with a smile as he asked everyone to sit down.
On the way, Fang Xuanling had already introduced Pei Shiqing, who was not a simple person. He served as the head of Hongluqing for three years in Daye, and once led thirteen people on an envoy to Japan. This was the first recorded official official trip of an official from the Central Plains.
Make Japan Island.
But what is even more impressive is one thing. After Gu Shiqing and others came back, they said that when they went to Japan as an envoy, they were warmly received. That night, each person in the envoy arranged two or three beautiful women.
This is normal. After all, they are entertaining distinguished guests. However, what Pei Shiqing and others did not expect was that they found out the next day that the beauties serving them in the evening were all the daughters of the Japanese royal family, and the one accompanying Pei Shiqing was actually Japano Taigu.
The Emperor's daughter and daughter-in-law.
Originally, Pei Shiqing and others reported this matter privately as an elegant matter. Most of the others regarded it as a joke, thinking that Pei Shiqing was making it up because of her beauty. Only Zou Yu believed it was true. After all, that dirty race,
Nothing is impossible.
As envoys, Pei Shiqing and others have first-class natural talent and appearance, and are tall and slender. With the characters of those dwarfs on the island, it is not impossible to find a way to borrow seeds. As for improving varieties, of course the royal family must take priority.
The little dwarf has never been ashamed of this kind of thing, but rather proud of it.
Everyone couldn't help but feel relieved when they saw Zou Yu's pleasant appearance, not referring to him by his official title, and obviously planning to accept everyone.
"Xiaguan introduced to the general. This time, there are six families and thirty young talents who came with Xiaguan. They came here specifically to seek refuge. They are from the Gu family, Zhu family, Zhang family, Lu family, and Jiangdong family in Jiangnan.
Xie family, Wang family."
"Xie Zhongyun, Wang Yuxiu, Gu Xing, Zhu Shikai, Zhang Cheng, Lu Zixuan... have met the general." A group of young talents stood up one after another, introduced themselves to their homes, and saluted.
"Thank you all for coming to help me. To be honest, Liaodong is in short supply of a large number of talents. Your coming here really solves my urgent need. But I need to put my ugly words first.
The people in Liaodong include the Khitan, Xi people, Mohe people, Lin people, Goguryeo people and us Central Plains people. They are complex, so they need to be managed carefully. Everything should be done according to the general's policy. At the same time, you must not violate the orders of the general. Otherwise, don't blame someone for being unreasonable.
noodle.
If anyone is worried about his lack of ability, he can apply for a position on his own or return to Jiangnan after understanding." Zou Yu returned the gesture and said seriously.
Pei Shiqing didn't expect Zou Yu to be so direct. He couldn't help but look at it worriedly. Seeing that the group of young people didn't overreact, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was worried that someone might be bad, anger Zou Yu, and ruin everything for everyone. After all, the organization
