Spring and Autumn I Am King

Thanks to the book friend lichterflugd for the tip! Xuange Pavilion's evaluation ticket! This week, the new book in the category is number one! The third update today, please support!

Cheng Weng is a person who has seen the world. He thought about you, Zhao clan, often openly use the feudal rites and music on the Yankee, and it's not that I haven't seen it before. Who is arrogant to whom? But the mouth can only promise.

Zhao Wuxi smiled lightly, and continued to walk forward without further investigation.

Then they passed an open martial arts field, looking at the moonlight and torches, at least one hundred people could be accommodated. The ground was also paved with a layer of fine sand, with arrow targets standing on the edge, and against the wall there were spears that were too late to hide, presumably the Cheng clan often practiced here.

Wu Xie stopped again, pointed to the shooting range and said: "A good place, it is much more stylish than the threshing field in front of my village temple, Cheng Weng, you can make up a full brigade as a clan soldier, right? The mulberry trees in the mulberry tree are full of shade! I am really envious of a boy."

Cheng Weng was dumbfounded, thinking that there are only five hundred young and strong men in my family, how can I afford to support a family of soldiers, the gentleman Wu Xie came here specially today to find fault.

Like this, Zhao Wuxi stopped and commented every time he went, meaning that the Cheng clan's residence, the number of enslaved concubines, and the weapons of the clan's soldiers all exceeded the Zhao clan's law...

Once or twice, the old man was still able to deal with it hesitantly. After several repetitions, he was in a cold sweat and had nothing to say.

This gentleman has no sympathy, what exactly does he have in mind?

After walking along the gravel road of the manor for half a mile, he entered the ordinary Luzuo dwelling, and the muddy dirt road under his feet also lived here.

The so-called four li of the Cheng clan actually have no gaps. It was originally formed by the Cheng clan living together. But just like the difference between direct descendants and concubines, the Cheng clan have been multiplying for hundreds of years. Although they are called the same clan, they are actually distant and distant. Many impoverished clansmen, such as the former Chengwu, who actually had a status similar to that of the servants and concubines, were also forcibly moved to live in Luzuo.

According to Cheng Wu's description, these disadvantaged small families rent large amounts of land all year round and hand over half of their harvests as land rent every year. During the slack season, he had to repair manors, rectify ditches, and even serve as slaves and soldiers without personal freedom, which was extremely miserable. Among them, those who do not submit to the power of the great clan and want to find another way out will be expelled from the clan like a witch, lose their identity, and even the graves of their parents will be forcibly removed.

Wu Xie just listened to it, Spring and Autumn, as expected, is still a patriarchal society.

He carefully observed and found that the earthen houses here are very simple, some are missing half of the wall, and some are only covered with thatch. It's winter, and the weather becomes cold. When the winter solstice and the twelfth lunar month arrive, it must be extremely cold without charcoal fire and kang. According to Cheng Wu, several people freeze to death every year, but the Cheng clan ignores this and just keeps urging them to help repair the magnificent manor...

Cheng's Sili has a large number of people, and the land is also the most fertile, occupying the best water source in the whole township, but the wealth is completely concentrated in the manor of the Chengweng family. However, most of the ordinary people in the village have dishes on their faces, clothes and shoes, no clothes and no brown. The children were dirty, poorly clothed, and few had shoes on, and their food was not even as good as the dog food in the manor.

Wu Xie compares in his heart, this Cheng Clan can feed and clothe Dooli compared to the savages, no! Compared to Jia-ri and Sang-ri, who can still make Limin make ends meet, they are much worse!

Really, the wine and meat of Zhumen stinks, and the road is starving to death! The Cheng clan still oppresses and exploits such distant sects as Chengwu. It's no wonder that the innocent sister and brother were killed without even blinking an eye. In the past, the Cheng clan had been slaughtered and officials for generations, and when the power was poured into the village, Dou, Jia, and Sang Sanli were not less oppressed by him.

Big rat! This is Zhao Wuxi's evaluation of Cheng Weng and others after walking all the way, and it also strengthened his determination to completely transform into a city.

Before he knew it, he had already walked outside the Cheng's cemetery on the edge of Lilu.

Cheng Wu clenched his fists tightly and suppressed his emotions. After he committed a major crime and was expelled from Chengli, the corpses of his parents were even punitively removed from this cemetery! Throwing it into a ditch I don't know!

The pale moon climbed up the treetops, and on the gloomy hills, the burial pit dug yesterday has not been filled until now.

The three tripods and three guises cast in bronze are glowing with blue light. The taotie patterns on them show their teeth and claws, and the cloud and thunder patterns are cold. The rest of the deceased used the curtains, banquets, wine sets, bronze mirrors, ge, swords, and feathers. , ivory chopsticks and chopsticks, leather fur, lacquerware, etc. are countless, and the mound is two people high. This is just an ordinary uncle of the Cheng clan, but he was able to die so extravagantly and be buried in such a grand manner.

Of course, as the son of Zhongming Dingshi, Zhao Wuxie, who lives at the top of the Zhao family's feudal pyramid, has no moral superiority to condemn it.

However, once Cheng's greed threatens his rule and hinders the goal he must achieve, he will not hesitate to order him to make corrections, and if he does not comply, he will be removed!

Cheng's family is probably unwilling, and yes, no one will willingly give up their interests voluntarily, only swords and armor can make them fear. But it's not enough, there must be a lesson that impresses them and will never forget!

If mercy does not lead the army and govern a land, how can it not shed a little blood?

The blood of the white horse and black dog that was slaughtered here has long been drained, and a large group of flies buzzed and flew on it. The dark tunnel was like the **** mouth of a giant beast. The burial concubines who escaped from birth.

Zhao Wuxi didn't go to worship the Chengshi's deceased, but stood silently in front of the **** burial pit.

How ruthless did it take to be able to make a move, and let that clever and lovely boy and beautiful girl turn into dead bones and bury them in the ground?

Zhou Li did not support the burial of living people, but he was only attacking from a moral level. It would not be until the Warring States period more than a hundred years later that the state machine would issue a law prohibiting the use of human beings to die. However, there are policies above and countermeasures below, and human sacrifice has never disappeared from the perspective of Chinese history, and has continued intermittently until the end of the Qing Dynasty.

However, compared to Ying Qin, Jiang Qi, Zi Song, Cao Zhu and other countries where the worship of ghosts and gods of the Dongyi and Yin Shang still prevailed, the large-scale funeral custom of Ji surnamed Jin was actually not very popular.

But what makes Wu Xie embarrassed is that his family, the Zhao family, is an exception, because the ancestors of the Zhao family are the same as the Duke family of Qin, and they also have the surname Ying Dongyi...

Therefore, in the Warring States Period, the sacrificial sacrifices of the people of the Zhao State were also very popular. In the later generations of Hebei, every five tombs of the Zhao State scholars could find one to five people who were brutally killed, either as slaves, or from the dead. relatives of…

In this regard, Zhao Wuxi, who came from later generations, could not accept it.

Confucius Shangneng, a descendant of the Yin and Shang Dynasty in this era, appealed with heartache: "The person who started the figurine has no successor!" Although his old man reversed the order of human sacrifice and burial of pottery figurines, he left some people in later generations. A good flaw for confusing black holes.

Therefore, Zhao Wuxi felt that he should do something, at least in the three-thirds of the acre he manages, to put an end to such bad habits. He is a realist, and understands that no one will take a moral preaching like Confucius seriously...

That's right, only violence can be suppressed by violence, and only the legalistic laws that are as fiery as fire can make people dare not dance!

While Zhao Wuxi was thinking silently, on this small hill decorated with manuscript ink, all he could hear was the buzzing of mosquitoes and flies.

All the way down, Cheng Weng's calm heart became more and more uneasy. He couldn't figure out what the gentleman was going to do, so he could only stay by the side. A blood-stained green-headed fly just happened to land on the majestic crown above his head, constantly rubbing his forelimbs, but Cheng Weng did not dare to reach out to shoo him away, breaking the eerie quiet atmosphere, he could only stare upward with bulging eyes. .

However, after seeing Zhao Wuxi standing for a long time with a sullen face, as if he had finally made up his mind, he waved back and said, "Mu Xia, bring that person here!"
