Chapter 582 The people's heart can be deceived (seeking a silver note)
After coming out of the military camp and remounting his horse on the way back to Heyang, Jiang Fan said: "When we go back, let our people immediately confirm what He Wenshu said. If Liu Wenguang has indeed arranged for someone to come, then confirm that the other party is far away from Heyang.
How far is it and when can we arrive?"
"Yes, Master."
Tieniu agreed, and then said with some embarrassment: "But Master, our ability to obtain intelligence outside Heyang is indeed very limited. What... should we do?"
"Don't worry, this is not an easy thing to begin with. When the Beggar Clan really develops, similar problems will no longer be a problem."
Jiang Fan said with a smile.
"Looking at the look on He Wenshu's face just now, what he said shouldn't be a lie. How should we... respond?"
Tieniu asked next.
"How much do you know about Liu Wenguang?"
Jiang Fan did not answer, but asked a question.
"Hehe, we really know a lot about this. Ever since the last time Liu Wenguang's son came to plot our family's wine, we had arranged for the clan members to leave Heyang to investigate Liu Wenguang's specific situation. But then Liu Wenguang's son
I was deceived by the young master and went back, and the results of the investigation were not reported to the young master."
Tieniu said quite proudly.
"Huh? That's okay. He's very sensitive to espionage. He deserves praise."
Jiang Fan said with a smile.
"That's because I have been with you for a long time, young master, and I have to learn something. Otherwise, the eldest and second young ladies will call me stupid again."
Tieniu boasted, and then said: "This Liu Wenguang is a direct descendant of the Liu family, and the younger brother of the current head of the Liu family. He is from a standard aristocratic family. In our Zhou Dynasty, there are hundreds of aristocratic families, but he is truly at the top.
There are only five wealthy and distinguished families, and they are collectively known as the five surnames."
"The five surnames are Yuwen, Liu, Cui, Wang, and Zheng. Among them, the Liu and Wang surnames are based in the north, and the other three surnames are all based in the south. The reason why Liu Wenguang was able to become a Han
The governor of Dong County is due to the support of the Liu family. In fact, the entire Handong County is actually the Liu family's headquarters."
"Heyang was originally the most powerful city in the North. Since it was located in Handong County, it should have become the natural sphere of influence of the Liu family. And due to the special characteristics of Heyang, it might have been the foundation of the Liu family.
ruled by the clan."
"But because Prince Wu's palace is here, the Liu family has to avoid its sharp edges. This is why Heyang City is rarely affected by the power of the family. Now that King Wu is dead and the emperor is under house arrest, the Liu family will be the first
It is normal for Shi Shi to have his mind set on Heyang City."
Jiang Fan frowned slightly, sat on his horse, nodded slowly, and said: "It's not necessarily bad news. Since the Liu family has set its sights on Heyang City, it means that at least we don't have to worry about other monsters.
Already."
"Heyang is in Handong County. The Liu family regards Heyang as something in their pocket, so it is impossible to allow other aristocratic families to get involved. So the situation we need to face has changed from being surrounded by wolves to
It’s just for the exclusive use of Evil Tiger. In fact, in terms of difficulty, it has been reduced a bit.”
Although I think the Liu family will be very troublesome, as one of the five surnames and holding the position of Handong County Governor, if they really want to capture Heyang, they are actually very sure.
But after his young master said this, Tieniu no longer worried.
"If we want to destroy it, we must first make it crazy. We will explain everything when we get back. When Liu's people arrive, we must show weakness first. They just want to take control of Heyang. In order to avoid this process being too turbulent
, then as long as our people cooperate enough, they will still use our people in a short period of time."
Jiang Fan narrowed his eyes and continued: "In this way, it is easy to form some misunderstandings, so that all the unstable factors in the government office will take the initiative to jump out, so that we can clean up afterwards and remove all those who are not of the same mind as us.
."
"Huh? But if you do this, Heyang City will also fall into chaos, right? How can those people from the Liu family understand what is going on in Heyang? If they mess around, won't it be the people of Heyang who will be unlucky?"
Tieniu asked with some confusion.
"I just want them to go crazy. Although I am what people want and my reputation in Heyang City is unparalleled for a while. But the people are all good people after all. If I coerce them to rebel together, it will still be impossible for the vast majority of the people.
Agree. As for the people, as long as they have food to eat, they will not take the road of rebellion."
Jiang Fan smiled and continued: "So the people of the Liu family may be a help for us. If the people of the Liu family are more overbearing, they will inevitably conflict with the people of Heyang. As for what happened,
For the people of Heyang who have become accustomed to the current lifestyle in Heyang in the past six months, they cannot bear to go back to the past, where they were like grandsons when meeting nobles and officials."
"It's easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it's hard to go from luxury to frugality. Thanks to my efforts, the people of Heyang have adapted to doing everything according to the rules. No bribes, no laughter, no need to be careful. I believe that Liu's people are taking advantage of it."
After taking over the governance of Heyang, we will never be able to do what we are like."
"As long as the people begin to feel oppressed and feel that they will not be able to survive if the Liu family is allowed to rule Heyang, at that time, they will spontaneously hope that I can stand up and act as their savior. When the time comes,
If they rebel, it will be their ideas, not our needs."
Tieniu opened his mouth in astonishment and asked subconsciously: "Is there any difference?"
"There is a big difference. If we take the initiative, the people of Heyang will think that we are doing it for ourselves. But if it comes from their ideas, they will only think that we are taking such a big risk for them.
.In that case, the people's endurance will be infinitely improved. The people's hearts can be bullied, and only the people's hearts can be used."
Jiang Fan said coldly.
Tieniu was stunned, and after a while, he gave a thumbs up to Jiang Fan and said with admiration: "Master, you are really insidious. However, if Heyang is too chaotic, we will also
A heavy loss, right?”
"There is nothing to worry about. With Uncle Seventh here, a group of ninth- and seventh-eighth grade experts like you, plus the 10,000 militiamen, we have enough power to control the development of the situation. No matter what the Liu family is,
Among the five major surnames, there are at most one or two ninth-grade members in the clan, which is not a big deal."
After Jiang Fan finished speaking, he took a deep breath.
But I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
Because he found that his changes were getting bigger and bigger as time went by!
This person... will eventually become the person he once hated most as he continues to grow and mature.
