All Hail Cousin Brother

The King of Dongning was also arrogant, and Hengdao immediately sat down in the Yamen court: "What do you want to explain? I have excerpted the national law and posted it on the streets. Is your clan ignorant or blind?" , the King of Dongning turned his head to look at the official: "What is the crime of raising private soldiers privately?"

The official said quickly: "The light ones will be fined with silver, and the heavy ones will be punished as the crime of deceiving the king."

The crime of bullying the king can be big or small and should not be ignored.

The two sides insisted on their own words, arguing endlessly in the yamen.

The final result was that the clan was beaten to pieces by King Wu Mu after Li Qiguang's rebellion. Although the remnant forces were not to be underestimated, the battle had just subsided, and the clan's vitality was severely damaged, and it was not easy to fight again. He took a step back, paid a huge amount of fines, and promised to restrain these "nursing homes" at home.

This amount of silver was fully charged into the treasury by Dongning Wang Yiyin.

The emperor was very satisfied with this, and even specially rewarded the King of Dongning.

At the same time, the emperor also knew very well that the king of Dongning was able to control the clan because Yin Huaixi had cleaned up the clan in disarray and rewarded Yin Huaixi with a lot of things.

Of course, this is just the beginning.

When the clan takes the first step back, there is a second step.

The number of private soldiers supported by the clan is not small. Most of them are recruited by the people. The good and the bad are mixed, and it is not easy to control. If the king of Dongning makes a plan, it is very easy to be hooked.

It didn't take long for the King of Dongning to kill the private soldiers supported by the clan. The crime was that these private soldiers oppressed the people and charged the people "protection money" to kill.

This time, King Dongning took the initiative to report the clan to the government office.

This time, the clan wanted to put things to rest, and people said it was not so easy. The King of Dongning sent people to investigate these private soldiers. Over the years, they had been accused of committing crimes in Shandong and asked the clan to disband the private soldiers.

Of course the clan would not like it!

The King of Dongning was not easy to mess with. On the same day, he posted the names of these private soldiers who had committed crimes and crimes on the streets and alleys, and then dispatched soldiers to arrest them one by one.

Those who are light are sent to the government yatian prison.

The serious ones were dragged to Caishikou and executed on the spot one by one. Those who dared to resist were punished with Li Qiguang and the party.

Thousands were arrested and thousands killed in just one day.

After killing the people, the King of Dongning also wanted to govern the clan's lax control, allow it to commit murder, and cover up the crime.

The conflict between the King of Dongning and the clan intensified step by step.

Last autumn, the King of Dongning brought five hundred elite soldiers and broke into the Lengfu in Jinan.

This move completely annoyed the clan.

But the clan's remnants, after two years of rectification and consumption by King Dongning, have made things worse. How could it be the opponent of King Dongning and officials of all sizes in Shandong?

The King of Dongning used the words of the clan: "The clan is lawless, deceives the king, and has chaos", to burn the code of law, classics and history that the clan has passed down from generation to generation.

The clan is finally honest.

However, the behavior of King Dongning was met with backlash.

Many literati and students jointly played the court and pointed out: "The great ancestors, the righteousness of the old dynasties, the recovery of the ancient books, the merit is in the future, and it will benefit future generations. The King of Dongning destroying the ancient books is an act of immorality and virtuousness, and this trend must not rise. , the court should be indicted."

The emperor couldn't stop the lingering voices of the world, and he fined the King of Dongning three years' salary, neither light nor heavy.

The emperor was satisfied, and decreed that the King of Dongning would continue to help the provinces and rectify Shandong.

In addition, the two years of the Great Zhou Dynasty are also getting worse.

Two years ago, I didn't see the sun for a few days in the whole winter. The snow fell from Laba to the eighth day of the first lunar month. Not long after the Spring Festival, another wave of cold snaps came.

For half a month of rain and snow, the cold spring lasted until the Qingming Festival.

The early rice in the south is rotten, and the peanut and cotton in the north have dead seedlings and slow growth.

"Nine spring droughts in ten years" came last year, and there was another spring drought.

"Spring rain is as expensive as oil." In March, the soil thawed and the winter wheat seedlings turned green, but there was no rainfall. Many wheat seedlings died from drought, and the harvest was less than half of previous years.

The people had a hunch that the year was not going well, so they began to stockpile grain.

Rice prices began to rise.

Even if the Ministry of Household issued a notice to the rice merchants to strictly control the price of rice, the price of rice is still on the rise, and this situation has lasted for more than a year.

Yu Youyao couldn't help but sigh: "The country will be in chaos, the chaos begins in the sky, and the people first."

The Great Zhou Dynasty had a lot of troubles. In the early years, the weather was good and the weather was good. The people could live a good life and maintain the peaceful scene. However, like today, there are frequent disasters and man-made disasters.

Yu Youyao didn't want to see this scene, but there was nothing he could do.

She can only do her best to run a good house, help more children, women and children, and put more energy into the cultivation of sweet potatoes, because sweet potatoes are foreign things, and now sweet potatoes are renamed sweet potatoes.

Yu Youyao sighed lightly, and didn't want these bad things anymore.

At this time, Xia Tao led Mother Yue in.

Yu Youyao had a look of joy on her face, and quickly said, "Mommy, come and sit down."

Mammy Yue saw that she was already twelve years old, and in a month or two, the young lady who should be thirteen years old, her figure was drawn out, she looked slim and graceful, her length was trimmed, her slenderness fit, and her face became a lot longer. , is also budding, Fang Fei's pretty look.

Then I thought of it again, and I couldn't help but wet the eyes of the madam's dying entrustment back then: "In a blink of an eye, the young lady has grown up, if the madam is still alive..."

Speaking of which, she knew she had made a blunder, so she didn't go on, but she couldn't help but feel sad.

Yu Youyao hurriedly handed over the handkerchief: "My mother is happy even if she has knowledge under the spring."

Madam Yue took the handkerchief handed by the young lady, wiped her tears, and said with relief: "The young lady is right, as long as the young lady has a good life, the lady is happier than anything else."

If there is a mother, there must be a daughter.

Although the eldest lady has a different temperament from that of the eldest lady, she is also shrewd and generous in all things.

This shrewdness does not mean shrewd in calculation.

Know the world, but not the world, be good at human feelings, but not indulge in calculations, understand the nature of the heart, but not go with the flow, treat people and things with their own hills and valleys in their chests, not arrogant in the world.

Grandma Yue couldn't help but be in a trance: "The old lady has brought up the young lady very well..."

Such a big girl's family is either already engaged or already dating.

But in the past few years, the government and the public have not been stable. Mrs. Yu is a cautious person, and she has been watching in secret, and she will not be too early to make an engagement.

fair enough.

Men are afraid of entering the wrong profession, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man.

Their young lady is the most famous and virtuous girl. Who in the capital mentioned Miss Yu, the left servant of the Ministry of Personnel, who didn't praise her with a thumbs up?

It is better to be late than to marry by mistake.
