Chapter 970: Jingzhou Monsters Appear, Just an Official Position

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Now the two of them can only hope that Liu Min is really a bribe-taking maniac and will not meddle in other people's affairs as long as he gets the benefits, otherwise things will become a big deal.  />

    However, when the two of them looked at Liu Min's appearance, they accepted the jade seat. They just wanted to get some benefits and spend money to avoid disasters. Although it hurt, it was nothing. Anyway, compared to the money earned from such a big project, it was just a drop in the bucket.  .

    The two of them couldn't help but resent Liu Min for taking this trip. They estimated that with Fan Lixiang's status, the benefits they would get would be much greater than what they had to worry about running around. It was simply unreasonable.

    Outside, Li Cai was asked by Liu Min who was from the Huang family. He felt awe-struck, but he had already said so much, and it was impossible not to say it in the end: "This time it is Huang Lan and Huang who are interested in this project."

    "Huang Lan." Liu Min pondered in his heart. He knew that Huang Lan was from the Huang family in Shuzhong. Huang Lan was the cousin of Huang Quan and the cousin of Liu Zhang's wife, Huang Yue, because she had been with him since childhood.  Huang Quan has a good relationship. After Huang Quan and Huang Yue were re-employed one after another, Huang Lan naturally became one of the core members of the Huang family.

    "Now we are in some trouble." Liu Min thought to himself that the Huang family in Shuzhong should be the most powerful people in the world now. Although Huang Quan is only a herdsman in Yizhou, he is obviously the most important civilian official in the Sichuan army.

    Huang Quan has followed Liu Zhang since the Battle of Fucheng. The Battle of Fucheng was arranged by Liu Zhang in advance. Huang Quan arrived with Dongzhou soldiers and won a decisive battle. After that, he has been taking care of Yizhou. He did not surrender when the Jingyi clan rebelled.

    Based on Huang Quan¡¯s achievements during the rise of Liu Zhang, after Liu Zhang became emperor, Huang Quan would definitely be the highest-ranking minister in the imperial court.

    What¡¯s more, Huang Yue is still the royal wife.

    Liu Min felt a little solemn in her heart. She did not expect that it was the Huang family who framed the Qu family. This directly involved Liu Zhang. Will Liu Zhang handle it?  You must know that if you touch the Huang family before you are proclaimed emperor, other heroes will definitely be disappointed.  Maybe there is also the suspicion that the cunning rabbit was killed and cooked by the lackey.

    "In fact, there are two Huang families, one is the Shuzhong Huang family, and the other is the Jingzhou Huang family. Which one is more aggressive? The Jingzhou Huang family only has one Huang Yueying, who can already be on an equal footing with the Yizhou Huang family.

    But in comparison, the Huang family in Jingzhou seems to be too low-key. Until now, the Huang family in Jingzhou cannot compare with the strength of several big families in Shu.  At most, it is only a little higher than other ordinary families. I don't know if Huang Yueying deliberately suppressed it.

    Liu Min felt that the matter was serious from the beginning when she heard it was the Huang family. Now she feels uneasy, but she still can't show it.  Unable to leave, I continued to ask some questions with my head held high.

    Liu Min wanted to know if Huang Lan was really behind the scenes, and if there was someone behind the scenes who was more powerful than Huang Lan. After making insinuations, nothing came out.

    Liu Min also believes that there is nothing left. If there is anyone behind Huang Lan, it can only be Huang Quan and Huang Yue.  It is impossible for these two people to intervene in such a project.

    "When the Huang family gets the project, don't forget to inform me. I will go to celebrate."

    After Liu Min finished speaking, he stood up and left.  Just as they walked outside the courtyard, one of the two people behind the screen snorted and stood up: "Fan Lixiang is so arrogant that he actually knew he was from the Huang family. He dared to be so arrogant and almost blatantly asked for bribes. He thought Fan Lixiang was in the Huang family.  What¡¯s in front of you?¡±

    "Okay, Su Wen Fan Lixiang is good at playing power and is ruthless. How can the people under his command be good? Let them be proud this time. When the King of Shu ascends to the throne and Mr. Huang Quan enters the core of the court, we can slowly deal with Fan Lixiang.  .¡±

    If the person behind Liu Min had not been Fan Lixiang, they were afraid that Liu Min would not let it go after her death. The two of them even wanted to kill Liu Min directly, or find a crime and throw her into jail, and slowly die accidentally.

    That person was right. If Liu Zhang hadn't been behind him this time, Liu Min would not have dared to be arrogant in front of the Huang family. No matter what the political form of a regime is, there will always be a powerful class.

    What's more, the Sichuan Army was directly derived from the Han Dynasty. The concept of the powerful class is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. One person can ascend to heaven. Liu Zhang's heroic generals and some businessmen who first followed the Sichuan Army. It would be strange if their families did not follow the rise of the Sichuan Army.

    Liu Min returned to the Fan Lixiang military camp and asked the other generals, including Xing Daorong and Chen Ying, to retreat. Liu Min recounted what he heard. While speaking, he looked at Liu Zhang anxiously from time to time.

    Fan Lixiang also frowned. She originally wanted to hear what Liu Zhang had to say first, but when she turned to look, Liu Zhang frowned. Fan Lixiang thought that Liu Zhang was not easy to deal with the Huang family. It was no wonder that Liu Zhang was not the only one here.  According to Fan Lixiang's understanding of the main wife, Liu Zhang cares about Huang Yue's feelings.

    And this also involves actual politics. Huang Quan is the biggest contributor in the civil service system. If he hasn't proclaimed himself emperor at this time, and he attacks Huang Quan's family or his cousin who is close to Huang Quan, it will not only be heartbreaking for the Huang family, but also  Other heroes and generals were equally disappointed.

    This will have a great impact on the stability of the future regime.war.

    Fan Lixiang thought for a while and said: "As far as I know, as a family, the Huang family's business is divided into several parts. There are responsible clan members for the Southwest Silk Road and the Western Silk Road.

    ??As for the businessmen in the Han Dynasty, Huang Lan was the one who was openly moving around, so Huang Lan definitely had to take care of more than just Beiping. It was only because of the huge construction project in Beiping that the profits were very considerable, so Huang Lan directly intervened.

    So I think the person who framed the Qu family this time is definitely not Huang Lan. On the day of the bidding, the Huang family, Li Cai and other officials who came to bid were arrested, and they were all detained in collusion between the government and businessmen. There was no need to implicate innocent people.  "

    "Innocent?" After Fan Lixiang finished speaking, Liu Zhang spoke softly and took a deep breath: "Huang Lan is in Peiping now, and is personally supervising the Beiping construction site. Lixiang, you are not afraid of anything. When you were in Jingzhou  , in order to keep his power, even I, the king, was involved in the conspiracy.

    Why are there so many worries now?  "

    Fan Lixiang paused. Of course he said this because of Liu Zhang's consideration, and she also felt that she was about to become emperor and ascend the throne, so she shouldn't cause any trouble at this time.

    If it were any other king who was about to face such a major event as proclaiming the emperor, he would definitely not care about it. He would turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye. A somewhat domineering king would just write it down. As long as the Huang family does  If it's not too much, I won't mention it.

    In the future, when we are proclaimed emperor and the throne is stable, we will settle the accounts together while the lackeys are cooking.

    Fan Lixiang said that punishing those who directly committed the crime was because Liu Zhang might not turn a blind eye, but judging from Liu Zhang's current tone.  It turned out to be a thorough investigation.

    That commotion was huge. It really shouldn¡¯t have happened before he proclaimed himself emperor.

    "My lord, you don't really want to punish Huang Lan, do you? Now that the world has just been unified, we can't make such a big fuss. Even if you want to punish Huang Lan, you have to wait until you become emperor.

    ¡°My lord, there is one thing you may not have thought about yet, punishing Huang Lan.  It will not only chill the hearts of some meritorious officials and generals, but also make the common people doubt that the Huang family, as the largest meritorious family, has such a profit-seeking person. The common people will doubt our entire Sichuan Army.  "

    "Punishment?" Liu Zhang sneered: "Huang Lan's head can still exist. That would be so sorry for the hundreds of thousands of people who died."

    Liu Zhang was fully aware of the consequences of killing Huang Lan, especially what Fan Lixiang said at the end, one grain of mouse droppings ruined a pot of soup. If such a person was found in the Huang family, he would frame him for profit at the cost of killing the soldier's family of three.  Another businessman, this person is also the cousin of the chief civil servant of the Sichuan Army.

    ?The common people will have doubts about the Sichuan military regime.  Sometimes this kind of doubt is fatal. Maybe in the future, ordinary people will think of this incident and say: "Look, the Sichuan Army is not a good thing. The top level has that kind of scum, let alone the lower level."

    Generally speaking, if a political power wants to maintain its legitimacy, it must keep secret about high-level crimes.

    Of course Liu Zhang hoped that nothing would go wrong before he became emperor, and of course he hoped that the court established by the Sichuan Army would have a glorious and holy image in the hearts of the people.  The upper-level civil and military personnel of the Sichuan Army are all flawless in the hearts of the people.

    But Liu Zhang never thought that being the emperor and stabilizing the regime were the top priorities. If he regarded being the emperor as the first priority.  There would have been no massacre in the first place.

    As a member of the royal family and with the entire Yizhou, his starting point is much higher than that of Cao Cao. It would be much easier to conquer the world.

    The stability of political power was not what Liu Zhang pursued. As a later generation, Liu Zhang would not be as whimsical as Qin Shihuang.

    Although Liu Zhang is now in trouble for the founding of the country, because the founding policies of the founding of the country are related to many generations, Liu Zhang never thought that his rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty could be passed down to thousands of generations.

    If a dynasty can promote a historical development, it must make its own contribution. For example, Qin Shihuang achieved centralized unification, the Han Dynasty laid the national foundation of the Han nation, the Sui Dynasty's imperial examination system, etc.

    What you can do is to revive this dynasty and do what you can to advance history. As long as you advance the historical process, the Chinese nation can take a step forward.

    It only takes one step, no need for eternal prosperity, this is what Liu Zhang wants to do.

    It is of course good to have a stable political power, but it cannot go against one's original intentions, otherwise it would be putting the cart before the horse, and it is obvious that letting Huang Lan go now is going against one's original intentions.

    To be honest, Liu Zhang was very angry after hearing Liu Min's report. Even though Liu Zhang knew that the dark side of any regime was unavoidable, Liu Zhang still felt sad and even scared when it was so completely exposed in front of him.

    Liu Zhang¡¯s fear of reviving the Han Dynasty was really nothing more than a conspiracy.??A decadent and mediocre dynasty.

    If so, Liu Zhang really felt sorry for those dead clans. Those clans were not useless. They had many things worth promoting, such as the values ????of loyalty and their contributions to Chinese culture.

    "It's just because as time goes by, the family continues to grow, and it's like a cancer. Because of the selfishness of the family, a family that is strong enough starts to bite back the country and the people for the sake of the family's interests, so it has to be eliminated.

    Liu Zhang used violence and painstaking efforts to get rid of the cancer of the family, but he would never allow himself to plant a cancer.

    Liu Zhang knew very clearly that although the world was unified, the war was not over. There were still many obstacles in order to achieve his goals.

    First of all, there are those interest groups that have risen incidentally with the top leaders of the Sichuan Army. Interest groups are not scary. What is scary is that they, like the previous families, have begun to become arrogant and selfish. They feel that now that they have become a high-ranking person, they can be the same as the previous families.  Playing with power.

    This is a common poison in the feudal era. A group of arrogant and powerful people fell, and those who pushed them down naturally lived the lives of those they had pushed down.

    This is definitely not what Liu Zhang wants, so Liu Zhang must kill people, even if it makes other civil and military officials feel chilled, even if it makes the people doubt the Sichuan army.

    Other Wenwu heart chills, you must show your attitude. Don't think that you are a hero, I dare not move you.

    It¡¯s not scary for the common people to be confused. If we don¡¯t take a tough stance now, other upstarts will become more aggressive in the future. Then there will be no doubts. The credibility of the Sichuan military regime among the people will be rapidly lost.

    Liu Zhang has always believed that the loss of credibility is the most terrifying thing, which is actually the loss of legitimacy and is irreversible.

    So Huang Lan was killed by Liu Zhang, at the expense of the soldiers and their families, just for financial gain. It can be seen that Huang Lan did not take the lower class seriously at all. This is definitely the rise of a new dynasty, and the habitual arrogance of power of the new rich.

    "Li Xiang, I will kill Huang Lan. You go and make arrangements." Liu Zhang believed that with Fan Lixiang's methods, these things would not be difficult.

    Seeing Liu Zhang¡¯s firm eyes, Fan Lixiang responded with a yes and said to Liu Zhang: ¡°My lord, I really admire you, not for anything else but because you can always maintain the same heart as you did at the beginning.

    Maybe the lord has had this kind of mentality since the Jiangzhou massacre, right?  After experiencing so many difficulties caused by the family, he never gave up his new policy. If other kings had compromised long ago.

    Now before proclaiming the emperor, the other emperors were afraid of causing trouble. Even if something happened to the people below, they would not dare to report it. If you reported it, you would definitely not be able to finish the meal and walk around, but you can still handle it as before.

    Sometimes I think, is the emperor just an official position to the lord?  An official position to fulfill your heart's desire?  "

    Fan Lixiang was talking about Liu Zhang, and thought of herself. When she followed Liu Zhang, she first promised Liu Zhang three things, and then led the entire Jingnan and 20,000 troops to surrender, and then she got an official position.

    In order to keep this official position, Fan Lixiang had to do this for her official position even if she knew the consequences.

    Because Fan Lixiang is afraid of not having power, she hopes to gain a minimum of self-esteem in this world where men are superior to women, and she does not need to be treated as a commodity by men.

    Once upon a time, Fan Lixiang thought that this was her lifelong goal and it would never change.

    But now, Fan Lixiang suddenly realized that at some point, she no longer wanted to be a general, but still wanted to be a woman beside Liu Zhang.

    That is to say, I have given up on my previous ideals.

    But Liu Zhang still persisted. No matter the difficulties caused by the huge family or the temptation of the throne, it seemed that he had not wavered.
