One round of energy will fade and then decay and three times exhaust.
This effect is not only reflected in marching operations, but also in other aspects.
For example, Xi Lu deals with Kong Rong.
If Xi Lu could not directly press Kong Rong to death with one go, then there would be no good life for him next.
Xi Lu was very irritable. He understood that Emperor Liu Xie used the word "drag".
This drag is very useful.
If the emperor argues with Xi Lu and others head-on and says that Kong Rong is so good, then he will not only fall into the position preset by Xi Lu and others, and be surrounded and suppressed from all directions, but also will not be able to protect Kong Rong.
Yes, the emperor wanted to protect Kong Rong, but he didn't believe in the so-called long list of Kong Rong's crimes.
Xi Lu hoped that he would be convicted on the spot, and then immediately beheaded Kong Rong or given white silk and poisoned wine. Anyway, as long as Kong Rong died, the final conclusion would be made.
It’s just a pity that the emperor did not do this. He just dragged it on, neither arguing head-on with Xi Lu and others, nor did he mean to punish Kong Rong. Anyway, he meant that he would continue to investigate thoroughly...
What can be checked?
Kong Rong's wings?
If Kong Rong really had some wings, could he still be able to reach this point today?
But Xi Lu himself has made such a big crime for Kong Rong, can he play alone? So if he can't find out any "wings", wouldn't it seem that the crime Xi Lu framed is false?
But if you really look for something, wouldn’t you offend more people? Kong Rong is a soft persimmon, easy to pinch, but other people may not be like Kong Rong’s nerds. The more people you involve, the larger the network of relationships and more troubles.
If you don’t check, it’s embarrassing that you are. And the longer you delay, the more you become incompetent. In the end, if Kong Rong finds some opportunity, such as the emperor’s amnesty, or something…
When Xi Lu thought of this, his whole body shivered.
If Kong Rong comes out, he will be himself who comes in!
Xi Lu's face couldn't help but be very serious. This was an adventure and an extremely bold action. Successful of success will certainly bring a lot of rewards. If it fails, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Xi Lu pretended to be calm and went out, and he wanted to find Lu Cui. Although Xi Lu and Lu Cui did not have much friendship before, this time they were on the same ship. If they wanted to avoid capsizing, they had to discuss the previously discussed plan again in order to find any subtle points that would lead to the failure of the plan.
As the saying goes, we can gather thoughts and unite as one. The sooner we can finalize this matter, the more peace of mind you can be.
Lu Cui did not go out to greet Xi Lu, but did not drive Xi Lu away. He just sat in the hall and waited for Xi Lu to come in before saying to Xi Lu: "You don't need to come here."
Xi Lu was silent for a while, "If you stop, you will definitely go down."
Lu Cui looked at Xi Lu for a moment, then exhaled and said, "If you do it, you will do it like this."
『…』 Xi Lu frowned, 『Is there any change?"
Lu Cui nodded and said, "A Jiangdong envoy arrives in Jingzhou and will arrive in Xu County soon."
"Is it because Jiangdong wants to pay tribute and seek peace?" Xi Lu said in disbelief.
Luci nodded.
Xi Lu suddenly felt a little tooth pain.
Why can't Jiangdong have some ambitions? He's just investing? Why don't he resist for a while? At least after this period of time, it's not too late to let Kong Rong vote after he dies!
After all, one of the charges given to Kong Rong was that Kong Rong colluded with Jiangdong, Guanzhong and wanted to do something wrong. Now that Jiangdong has surrendered, can Kong Rong still be considered a collusion? Maybe Jiangdong tilted his mouth and said that Kong Rong persuaded surrender, and he made great contributions!
In this way, even the charge of rebellion is not easy to be established among the charges of indiscriminate plots...
Xi Lu's face was suddenly filled with capital letters of sadness.
Luci closed his eyes aside.
In fact, Lu Cui is also worried.
After a moment, Xi Lu gritted his teeth and said, "Since you do it, you should do it!"
"Huh..." Lu Cui was silent for a while, nodded, "Good."
The two of them looked at each other and seemed to see Resoluteness in each other's eyes. Of course, there might be a trace of helplessness.
"The first thing should not be involved too much." Xi Lu said in a deep voice.
Luci nodded.
If Kong Rong was really planning a rebellion, then Xi Lu from the so-called Censorate would of course not be afraid of being too involved, and would even be eager to make it bigger and better. It can even be said that as long as there is a little bit of realism in it, Xi Lu could blow out ten times the bubble.
But the problem is that there was an excuse before, which was Jiangdong, and now there is no excuse for this.
Jiangdong was not obeyed the jurisdiction of the court and sent troops to the north. Although he later retreated, this was undoubtedly a point that could be used to make a fuss. However, now that Jiangdong submitted a letter of surrender, all the envoys arrived in Jingzhou. If they repeatedly said that Jiangdong was a traitor, and then Kong Rong contacted Jiangdong to plot against him, what would he think after the envoy of Jiangdong came?
So as long as Jiangdong really surrenders, the original charge of rebellion that originally accused Kong Rong would be somewhat unsustainable.
What other people do you want to involve in such a crime of being unable to stand?
It is not a big problem for the false one or a clan to make a big film on a vague charge, just like Emperor Xiaowu, who followed the name of witchcraft and nearly 100,000 people. Yes, the witchcraft incident did indeed destroy a lot of people at that time, but in the end, even the arrogant and arrogant Emperor Xiaowu did not have to lower his head to express his mistake?
Then what will happen to those who have executed the "wrong" and killed a lot of political enemies for Emperor Xiaowu?
Xi Lu or Lu Cui, do you want to get such an end?
So they must limit the scope to Kong Rong, then blur the original crime of "conspiracy", and then choose a new crime and a new direction...
But what direction should I choose?
"Unfaithful and unfilial?" Lu Cui suddenly said.
"Unfaithful? Unfilial?" Xi Lu repeated.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! The two of them looked at each other.
If "unfaithfulness and unfiliality" is used as the key crime, the scope will naturally be narrowed. However, Kong Rong, as a descendant of Confucius, has always used loyalty and filial piety as the standard since childhood. It is quite difficult to prove his "unfaithfulness and unfiliality".
"It's just unfaithfulness and unfiliality!" Lu Cui patted the desk, "There's nothing else!"
Xi Lu nodded, "That's the case!"
…┐(T.T )( T.T)ノ…
It is not just Xi Lu and Lu Cui who can only run wildly on the original road and cannot stop.
There are also Lu Hong and Zhao Da.
While Xi Lu and Lu Cui were still considering how to add more crimes to Kong Rong, Lu Hong and Zhao Da had already set out and went to Lu again to "collect" various criminal information about Kong Rong.
Since the emperor wants to "check carefully", he can't say that he has no action, right?
It is naturally impossible for the boss to do these trivial matters by himself, so Lu Hong and Zhao Da naturally became the main personnel in doing business. Simply put, Lu Hong and Zhao Da work, both clean or dirty work must be done.
Xi Lu and Lu Cui were not allowed to choose, and Lu Hong and Zhao Da were not allowed to choose.
Kong Rong, the Kong family, and descendants of Confucius. These people were entrenched in Confucius' hometown in the name of the Kong family, and then engaged in various tasks, from ordinary food, clothing, housing and transportation to elegant literature and art, all the Kong family members were like an extremely large family business, controlling the place and influencing counties.
So after Lu Hong and Zhao Da came, there was no one, at least these people from Kong did not give them any good looks. It would not be necessary to deliberately violate the order, but they would definitely not cooperate very much, and they would disobey or delay.
If it were an ordinary person, he would have been touched by such a soft nail, but what kind of people were Lu Hong and Zhao Da?
They made an excuse directly, caught two or three little chickens and took the knife directly!
This scared some Shandong monkeys more or less.
Of course, Lu Hong and Zhao Da are not stupid either. They have no problem killing the chicken, but they can't kill the big monkey either. And even if they kill the chicken, they can be considered as having a grudge with the big monkey.
After an enterprise monopolizes, various overlord clauses will appear, attempting to absorb greater and more benefits. After a family controls the place, there will naturally be various situations where they are above the government and replace national laws with clan laws.
So if there is any criminal fact between the Kong clans and people, there must be some. There is no doubt about this. Just like if a mobile phone manufacturer implants various advertisements on his mobile phone, or if it is an infringement of an APP that cannot be deleted, it is not considered infringement when no one checks, and it is not found when someone checks it.
China has been very unclear in property rights from ancient times to the present.
The land in the hometown of Confucius in Lu State belongs to the Emperor of Han, which is undoubtedly the case, but it also belongs to the Kong family. However, neither the emperor nor the Kong family will personally cultivate the land here. Therefore, in daily life, this land is also belonged to the farmers who rent and farm.
This is like a mobile phone that almost everyone in later generations owns one or even multiple. If you think you are using it by yourself, the mobile phone is yours, which is actually a big mistake.
Because mobile phone manufacturers can have hundreds of reasons to bypass various supervision, or pretend to be crazy and stupid to install all kinds of software that cannot be deleted on your phone, mobile phone software vendors also stuff advertisements into your phone in various ways. Even online search engines that have nothing to do with mobile phones try to sell and send their software into your phone, let alone all kinds of Trojan viruses...
At this time, someone will inevitably jump out to empathize with capital. Oh, don’t use it if you think it’s troublesome!
Just like the Kong family or other gentry, they would casually tell the farmers, just like this, if you like to plant, if you like to rent, if you like to rent, if you don’t work, get out!
So in this case, will there be any problems?
There must be problems. Lu Hong and Zhao Da didn't spend much effort and collected a lot of problems.
only……
"These things," Lu Hong patted the table, "Look, so many... but it's a pity that these things... are useless... Well, it can't be said to be completely useless, but we can't use them to make a final decision...
Simply put, these evidences can be used to assist proof, but they cannot be used as the crimes that are mainly accused.
It is obviously impossible to use rebellion because it involves too much.
Corrupt areas are not easy to use, and they also involve many...
Didn’t the emperor Liu Xie say it? Why didn’t he find it after so long? Who contacted Kong Rong, who should bear the responsibility for supervision, what is the source, what is the detachment, etc. If this is involved, wouldn’t it be endless?
Nowadays, those who are officials are, let alone officials, even local gentry, who are clean under their butts who keep building roads and bridges every day?
It’s not that there is nothing, but that there are too few things.
It's really less than that of a treasured species.
If Emperor Liu Xie did not mention these matters, then everyone laughed, saying that they did not pay much attention at that time, did not pay special attention, and did not supervise it well, and then went there. However, Emperor Liu Xie said so seriously that he would have to investigate and deal with it strictly. Now, I will say that he did not pay attention at that time. Do you know if he would be dragged down to accompany Kong Rong to be buried?
In fact, when most feudal officials were arrested, they first confirmed that they had fallen, and then there were corruption issues, work style issues, and various problems that were exposed. Before they were arrested, everything was fine, and they could even talk about other people's problems on the stage.
Furthermore, the problems found by Lu Hong and Zhao Daxun are also among the gentry in other places, and all major families are like this. If these problems are the crimes of Kong Rong's clan, does it mean that other major gentry also have the same crimes?
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! Does the emperor still want local taxes?
Does the court still want local money and food?
『Hmm…』 Zhao Da also scratched his head, 『What should I do? Can't I just go back like this, right?"
『It can only be Kong Wen's name!" Lu Hong looked over the table, "Don't involve too much, it's his own problem..."
"Is it alone?" Zhao Da frowned and said while helping to flip, "This is probably difficult..."
Sure enough, after checking, the two of them stared at each other.
『Report!』
Just when the two were a little helpless, someone came to report that they had found the trace of Kong Rong's hidden children.
If you are sure that you cannot give evidence of the crime, catching the fugitive's family will be considered a merit!
Do the family always have to be neat?
Lu Hong and Zhaoda were overjoyed and immediately went out to arrest Kong Rong's children.
Normally, hiding a few people, even dozens or hundreds of people, is not a very difficult thing for local squire and large landlords who own a large amount of land or even a continuous forest.
Because all dynasties have been exploring the population registration and land registration from time to time. Even if the court checks it every few years, it still often cannot find out the land and population hidden by the landlords. Even if the land and population are placed there brightly, it is impossible to find out!
Wouldn't this large-scale magic technique be used to hide two children of aged half, and a half, be difficult?
Hey, but it's so strange that Kong Rong "entrusted" to his two children who were "knowing friends" were discovered by someone "accidentally"!
Something stranger happened. When Lu Hong and Zhaoda started to move out with their men, no one went to inform the two children!
No one went to cover up, or they ran away with their children...
The children Kong Rong entrusted to his "confidant friends" are a man and a woman, the older one is a boy and the younger one is a girl.
Entrusting your wife is the greatest trust in others.
But the problem is that not all trust can get positive returns like Guan Erye.
Kong Rong concealed the wanted criminals in the government and hid them. Even if he was arrested, he did not retreat at all. He even took the life of himself or his elder brother. Because Kong Rong felt that he had to do this, he felt that he was unable to protect himself. When facing his children, he hadtily arranged the marriage of his eldest daughter and then sent the young daughter and boy to his friend's place.
He thought his friends were friends enough, but he didn't expect his friends to be dog friends.
The married daughter is someone else's daughter-in-law. Although this may make some female fist feel unhappy, it is true that after Kong Rong was imprisoned, even people like Lu Hong and Zhaoda did not think about trouble for this married Kong girl, but just came to arrest the hidden Kong girl and boy.
Kong Rong's two children are in a remote small manor outside the city.
"It's been two days..." The older boy said with some concern, turning around in the hall, "There's no news for two days..."
The younger girl seemed more calm than the boys. "Second brother, don't wait, no one will come. Most of the people we are waiting for are not the ones we are waiting for."
The boy stopped and said with a pale face: "What do you mean by little sister?"
The little girl said, "I remember what he said when he came last time a few days ago?"
"Last time?" the boy asked, "What did you say?"
The little girl sat on one side, folded her hands in front of her, and said with a stern look, "He asked us, "Why is it that my father can't stand it?"
"I replied to him, "Why can a nest be destroyed but the eggs are not destroyed?" Have you forgotten?" The girl sat there, like a small bud, with a crisp voice, but with an extraordinary calmness that even adults may not be able to match.
"This..." The boy is obviously not as smart as the little girl, and he is a little slow and doesn't know what such a question and answer means.
The little girl glanced at the boy, then continued to say in a slightly cold voice, "He is driving us away, can't you hear it?"
"I can't hear anything?" the boy continued to ask.
The little girl was silent for a moment and said, "Just know, don't ask why. So he won't come again."
The two of them were talking, but they heard a burst of noise.
The boy jumped up, "Is his father back? Or is his uncle coming?"
The little girl sat there and sighed slightly, "Go and clean up... Forget it, I guess I don't have to clean up..."
Lu Hong and Zhaoda rushed into the village and looked up and saw two children in the hall.
"Is Kong Wenju's children in person?" Lu Hong looked at the two children and showed a touch of affection on his face. "I was my friend of Brother Wenju... entrusted by Brother Wenju..."
"You are not my father's friend..." The girl stood up and said, "Since I was arrested, why are you fake? Are you bullying me at a young age? Don't say much, when will you leave?"
Lu Hong was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he reached out and pointed, "It's OK now. Please."
The little girl walked to the somewhat dull boy and pulled him, "Second brother, let's go."
『Where to go?』
