Crazy, it's crazy!

The Hu team massacred everywhere, and thousands of people lost their lives and property. The entire Yanyun land was shrouded in blood.

What is this to do?

Back then, the Khitan stole Yan Yun and did not kill and rob. The champion Hou did this, which was no different from the bandits and robbers!

What kind of killing the Hu team is just a group of bandits?

Let them do whatever they want, it won’t take long before the people’s hearts will be lost. The land of Yanyun will probably be lost again!

Ye Hua must be stopped, and this kid cannot let his temper do whatever he wants!

This is an idea that many people have, but it is easier said than done, but how can we stop Ye Hua?

Please give me your order?

Guo Wei is sick and may not agree. And everyone knows that Guo Wei prefers Ye Hua, and even if he complains, it may not work... If Guo Wei fails, he can only find King Chai Rong of Jin, but Chai Rong is not an ordinary person and will not be easily manipulated.

After thinking about it, he found Fu Yanqing, King of Wei and asked him to come forward.

Faced with a large group of begging people, Fu Yanqing had no choice.

"Your Highness, this is the thing. Do you think you can let the Champion Hou stop temporarily... This Yan Yun's scholar is good and bad, and you can't generalize. The killing team is indiscriminate and slaughtered blindly. If this continues, it will damage the reputation of the court. After finally getting it back to Youzhou, you can't lose the hearts of the people. What does Your Highness think?"

Fu Yanqing tried to convince Chai Rong in a tactful tone.

As for Chai Rong, he stared at the ground in front of him, his eyes dazzled.

"What should I do if there is no food for 100,000 people?"

This question was completely unfinished, and Fu Yanqing pondered: "Aren't the court mobilizing grain and opening a porridge factory?"

"Can you eat enough with a bowl of porridge a day?"

Of course, I can’t eat enough, let alone a bowl, even ten bowls will not work. But the court cannot produce more food, and maintaining a bowl of porridge is already the limit.

Since the arrival of people and horses in Youzhou, the elderly, weak, women and children have died of illness and starved to death every day, with a maximum of more than 300 people a day!

The so-called porridge can only save some strong men, elderly people, children, injured and sick people, and can only wait a little bit to starve to death. More than one-third of them can survive, even if they are lucky.

Fu Yanqing suddenly understood, "Your Highness, is it the champion Hou's move to save people?"

"That's right!"

Chai Rong said: "Only by killing those gentry and powerful people and taking out food and houses from them, can the people settle down and divide their fields, and the people will have a way out!"

"ah!"

Fu Yanqing shouted softly. He really didn't expect that the people of Youzhou wanted to save them, but was it worth it to pay such a great price to save them?

"Your Highness, since that's the case, why don't you discuss with the gentry and ask them to donate money and materials to help the people overcome difficulties? It's better than killing, right?"

"Hahaha!"

Chai Rong seemed to hear the funnyest joke!

How much can you donate to save people by donating money?

Those gentry would rather take a lot of money to bribe the officials of the court than to send people. Even if they are willing to take out some things, it would be a drop in the bucket and would be useless!

Fu Yanqing still couldn't accept it, "Your Highness, even if this is the case, you should distinguish between good and bad. You can't generalize it. There will be unjust cases here!"

"Distinguish between good and bad? How to distinguish, who will distinguish? Who is wronged and who should be killed? How to identify, is there a three-party trial? Distinguish between right and wrong?" Chai Rong tapped the table hard and roared angrily, "I can give orders, but the people's belly does not wait for anyone. After everything is found out, the people will starve to death. At that time, what's the use of the truth?"

Fu Yanqing became more and more embarrassed. The truth was still useful, at least it could soothe the people's hearts!

"Your Highness, Mr. Rong said something extraordinary. The so-called natural disasters and man-made disasters are that God wants to take on people. No one can do anything. As long as the court does its best and obeys the will of heaven, the people will understand the difficulties of the court and will not rebel."

This is translated, and the purpose of disaster relief is not to save people, but to prevent people from causing trouble. As long as you appease the people and don’t let them cause trouble, it doesn’t matter how many people die!

The people are like weeds, ants, gentry, wealthy families, and wealthy families... These are the foundation of the court. As long as they are not in chaos, the world will be ruined!

Chai Rong certainly understood what his father-in-law meant, but the more he did, the more sad, angry he became!

"King of Wei, have you forgotten the Huang Chao Uprising?"

Fu Yanqing couldn't help but look pale. Although he had not experienced it personally, he heard too much from the old people in his early years... Huang Chao lost his first grade candidate, raised his troops to rebel, rampant the world, killed the gentry, destroyed the clans, stepped on the bones of the nobles, and killed the rich and nobles... He killed so much that blood flowed into a river and corpses piled up like mountains!

He killed all the gentry corpses who had been continued from the Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties. When talking about that past, many people were still shuddered and frightened.

It is nothing wrong to scold Huang Chao for being cruel and saying that he is a butcher!

But don’t forget, who forced him to embark on the path of a butcher? Who made so many people willing to follow Huang Chao to rebel? Also, Huang Chao had been fighting for ten years, from the Yellow River Basin to the Pearl River, and from Lingnan to Luoyang and Chang'an, and fought tens of thousands of miles, which made the Tang Dynasty's country turn over.

Let me ask, if there is no strong foundation for the people, how could such a big disturbance be caused? It even ruined the Tang Dynasty?

After all, it was just the officials in the court, from the emperor to the officials, who only had those big figures in their eyes, turned a blind eye to the common people and ignored human lives... Over time, they accumulated countless resentment, just like a river, usually gentle and obedient, once they flooded, they would destroy the world, and the sun and the moon were gone...

Chai Rong tried hard to remain calm, "King of Wei, I was doing business in my early years and witnessed too many sufferings among the people. I don't want to say too much reason. Killing ten thousand gentry and living ten thousand people is worth it! I am willing to bear the sins with all my strength. It is my order. You don't have to stare at the Champion Marquis. Whoever wants to restrain it is against me!"

Chai Rong didn't say it further, and he couldn't understand the meaning.

If you go against him, you will be the enemy!

Even if my father-in-law stands on the opposite side, there is nothing to be polite to say! Fu Yanqing grinned and smiled bitterly. Her son-in-law is really tough!

It turned out that I thought it was Ye Hua who did it, but I didn’t expect that my son-in-law was even more determined than Ye Hua. What could he say... It was just too much, it was easy to break. Marrying such a husband was not sure whether it was a blessing or a disaster... Fu Yanqing sighed, "Your Highness, if this move was just placed in Yanyun, it might not be much, but it must not be used in the Central Plains, let alone in Jiangnan and other places. If Your Highness could explain it to the ministers and appease people's hearts, it would be great."

Chai Rong had a dark face and nodded reluctantly: "I know what it is to benefit the country and the people, and I know what it takes to do."

Fu Yanqing was not at all relieved. Judging from Chai Rong's appearance, he clearly wanted to do something big. In addition, the brave Ye Hua, these two people got together, and they were afraid that they were even more terrifying than Guo Wei and Ye Hua!

...

Fu Yanqing was really guessing it right. As soon as he left, Ye Hua turned out from behind the screen, and he could hear it clearly from beginning to end.

"Your Highness, what the King of Wei said is that Lao Cheng is planning the country. He can use Yan Yun's means, and it may not be suitable for other places."

Chai Rong shook his head, "Ye Hua, when did you become less courageous? I ask you, how much difference is there between the countries in Jiangnan and the land of Yanyun? The aristocratic families and famous families there are even more complicated and powerful. If you want to wipe out the world, you must attack the aristocratic families and strive for the support of the people. Isn't this your claim?"

Ye Hua was embarrassed to smile bitterly, "That's the reason, but shouldn't you still rely on literati to govern the country?"

"No!" Chai Rong corrected: "It is to use literati, not to rely on them! Besides, literati are divided into many types. Didn't you run a school? You will find talents from the school in the future, which is far better than those scholars in Piliyangqiu."

Chai Rong asked Ye Hua to sit down and smiled: "My father asked me a question not long ago, who do I highly recommend among the emperors of all generations? Guess what I said?"

Ye Hua did not hesitate, "Of course, it is the current emperor!"

"You little slim!" Chai Rong punched Ye Hua fiercely and said angrily: "Of course this dynasty does not include this dynasty!"

Ye Hua thought about it seriously, "Can it be Emperor Wen of Han?"

"Why?"

"Emperor Wen of Han has the beauty of being close to the people, and his virtue of being kind, kind, forgiving, respectful, and simple. Only by following Emperor Jing and glorifying Emperor Wen's virtues can the rule of Wen and Jing." Ye Hua gave a very standard answer.

"Is it a peaceful and prosperous era that is exchanged for women? What is worthy of praise? They are all liked by sour literati. I don't like you when you say this!" Chai Rong said bluntly.

Ye Hua doesn't care. He has been with Chai Rong for a long time and knows that the more straightforward he says, the more he values ​​you.

"Your Highness, are you talking about Emperor Wu?"

"Emperor Wu of Han swept the Huns. Although he was very talented, he did not cherish the people's strength. He lived in his later years, was cruel and easy to kill, and even practiced Taoism and refining alchemy. He thought he could get immortality! I only admire him half of all these!"

What a big tone, even Emperor Wu of Han is only half. Chai Rong, you are too crazy! Who is the king you admire? Tell me and listen?

Ye Hua's eyes were wide open and he was very curious.

Chai Rong smiled, "The emperor I admire is Emperor Wu of Northern Zhou!"

"oh!"

Ye Hua took a deep breath, Emperor Wu of Northern Zhou!

It was indeed him!

The Emperor Wu of Northern Zhou was named Yuwen Yong. During his reign, he implemented the equal-field system, implemented the system of government troops, expanded the source of troops, enriched the finance and taxation, destroyed the Northern Qi Dynasty, unified the north, and had great talents and strategies, and was among the top emperors of all dynasties.

It was only after Yuwen Yong died young that Yang Jian usurped the throne, established the Sui Dynasty, and unified the world... It can be said that the prosperity of the Sui and Tang Dynasties was the foundation laid by Yuwen Yong, and the system of government and military establishment he established was the guarantee that the Tang Dynasty would look down upon!

This Emperor Wu of Northern Zhou also did one thing, which was to destroy Buddha!

"At that time, a monk opposed Emperor Wu, saying that he relied on the power of the king to destroy the Three Jewels, which was a tragic person. No matter whether the Avici Hell is noble or low, how can it be scary?" Chai Rong said: "Universal Wu was furious and once said that the people were happy. I will not refuse the sufferings of hell! Emperor Wu is frugal and simple, caring about the sufferings of the people. He has the talent of Emperor Wu, but he does not have the evil deeds of Emperor Wu. If he could live a few more years, the Northern Zhou Dynasty would definitely dominate the world!" Chai Rong smiled, "It's a coincidence that the country is now called Dazhou, which is just the same as the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Perhaps this is the number of days in the dark!"

Ye Hua shuddered, and he said in his heart that it was really a matter of days!

Yuwen Yong destroyed Buddhism and Chai Rong also did it. Both of them died young. They were the same age as the same year when they died! One was killed by illness during the Northern Expedition of the Turks, and the other was killed by illness during the Northern Expedition of the Khitan.

Yuwen Yong laid the foundation for the Sui and Tang dynasties, while Chai Rong laid the foundation for the Song dynasties... Both of them were usurped by powerful ministers, one in the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the other in the Later Zhou Dynasty!

How similar, it's like a mirror!

Could it be that Chai Rong was the reincarnation of Yuwen Yong?
