Chapter 869 Chapter 869: It seems that all his deaths were in vain [Please vote]
The old man stroked his gray beard, his eyelids were drooped, his shoulders were slumped, and he was thinking about something: "Brother, look at the current situation, you Those students are not well-intentioned.”
The old man holding the stick became angry again.
But this time it was not because of Shen Tang or Lin Feng, but because of a few students who asked him to come out and take charge of the overall situation. Before he could think about whether his students were plotting against Lin, he heard his great-granddaughter say: "There are no young people in the family, and my great-grandfather is old. It seems that my lord has not written any documents to conquer the country. Why is Lin involved in this turmoil?" ? For the sake of Lin’s safety, I beg your great-grandfather to speak frankly.”
The two brothers looked at each other and remained silent.
They looked at Lin Feng's posture with his elbows outside, and knew that they couldn't answer this question. The old man holding the staff didn't want to start the conversation, so he let the old man speak first. The old man's face seemed a little weak: "Jiaojiao, my great-uncle asked you before, do you really think your lord is worth following. Now I want to ask you, even if she wants to overthrow the family, will you follow her?"
< br>Lin Qian was somewhat caught off guard by this question.
This question is somewhat heartbreaking and too sensitive.
She did not answer directly: "Why did great-uncle say this?"
The old man thought that Lin Feng was avoiding the important and taking the easy, and was slightly annoyed: "Great-uncle asked you, when your master took office in the river Is Yin uprooting local forces and exterminating families? ”
Lin Feng nodded: "It is true, but it is because-"
The old man interrupted her forcefully: "Then let me ask you again, after your Lord transferred Longwu County, did he kill again? A wealthy family that has been operating in Longwu County for many years?"
Lin Feng still nodded: "It is indeed true."
This time he did not rush to explain.
She had a hunch that great-uncle's questioning was not over yet.
The old man asked his third question: "After your lord entered Sibao County, did he take away the properties belonging to the famous families in the territory?"
After great uncle finished asking, Lin Feng waited for a few seconds.
She met the former's eyes that were still full of youth, and asked softly and politely: "Well, have you finished asking great-uncle all the questions?"
This simple sentence sounded inexplicable to the old man. There's something yin and yang about it, even if Lin Feng doesn't mean it himself.
I want to get angry, but the Lin Feng in front of me is not only their junior, but also a subordinate of Shen Youli's account, and the main talker responsible for Lin's actions. If you get angry at her, the conflict can easily escalate into an uncontrollable situation. The old man swallowed it back.
He said expressionlessly: "Well, I'm done asking."
Lin Feng nodded obediently and explained calmly: "During the Heyin period, my lord was very poor. It's a shame that the local forces occupied most of the territory. The common people had no land to farm, and they later concealed their numbers, causing the Heyin government office to be in financial straits. The people of Heyin were in dire straits, and their crimes were too numerous to mention after the Lord took office. When he was young, he tried to control the government office to evade him. "Zeng Zeng, shouldn't they die?" There is nothing more to say about those things. In order to make profits, the local wealthy people colluded with Shiwu inside and outside, secretly funded the grain and grass supplies, and tacitly allowed the Shiwu horse bandits to loot, burn, and kill countless people in the territory. Innocent. This alone is enough for the Yi tribe, and there is no need to mention other things like occupying the people's farmland, seeking wealth and killing people, etc. This is all for their generation. blessing You deserve it. "
As for those things in Sibao County...
Lin Feng wants to avenge his lord and say something fair: "After the lord conquered Qiu Wenyan, he took over. Sibao County soon led its troops to participate in the Dragon Slaying Bureau. Those matters mentioned by great uncle were handled by the Qi Lord Book. You two elders need to know that Sibao County was in ruins after many wars. The rich people moved and fled, leaving only a few old slaves to guard them. Most of the old slaves were also missing in the war. Why, the land of Sibao County still needs to be protected by those rich people?"
< br>
The two old men listened to the first two paragraphs with sullen expressions, until the last sentence of the third paragraph took a turn for the worse. They were so shocked that they almost choked on their saliva, and both of them had strange expressions.
The old man holding the staff couldn't hold back anymore and scolded in a loud voice: "Jiaojiao, you have a daughter, how can you speak so openly?"
Lin Feng blinked, his eyes glowing. Playful.
"Great-grandfather, Jiaojiao will have hairpins in a few months." She can get married at this age, and she is not a boudoir daughter who lives in the inner house for a long time and is not familiar with the world. "For my grandson, as long as If you are not slandering your lord and mentor, any words you say are not unreasonable.”
The expressions of the old man holding the staff were distorted for a moment.
Taking a deep breath, she secretly told herself that the Lin Feng in front of her was not the Jiaojiao she once was, and the two could not be confused with each other. After a long time to mentally build up, the old man said earnestly: "Indeed, those insects died unjustly, and your lord's response methods are also reasonable, but Jiaojiao, have you ever thought about it - in this current world, what is it?" How many of them have clean butts?”
“First it is He Yin, then Long Wu, and then the Four Treasures. The reasons for sending troops are basically the same. Those who have dirty butts will pull out the same thing. flag shine How can we kill them all!" The old man almost spit out these words through his teeth, "How can Shen Youli not put everyone in danger?"
Lin Feng's gentle expression finally changed. After seeing the change, he said angrily: "My lord, he never planned this! Wasn't the previous conquest a sign of goodwill to various families? Due to the impact of the war, 60% of the official offices in the two states of Yan and Qian were stagnant and lacked manpower. Only then did they recruit talents! It was them themselves Refuse! Now it’s unfair. It's not enough for these people to beat me up. They spread the rumor that her male soul was reincarnated into a female fetus. She is both a lover of Long Yang and has a habit of grinding mirrors. They also slander her to recruit talented people in order to enrich the harem and conquer the country. No. My lord, she is an upright woman. So far, various families have not recognized her as a woman. What are their intentions?” You have watched your grandson grow up from infancy! Could it be that the grandson is also a so-called monster whose soul was reborn in a female fetus? How arrogant and stupid are these wealthy people!” soldiers It’s not an exaggeration to come and kill everyone! Now we just ask them to take some ill-gotten gains, and both sides take a step back. What will happen to them? They are plotting and scheming to cause another disaster while the master is still weak!”
< br>
My own family is also involved!
I didn’t figure it out at first, but now I understand.
After my great-grandfather retired and returned to his hometown, he taught many students, most of whom were children of aristocratic families from local or other places. If you persuade your great-grandfather to come forward, you can persuade others to join under his banner. This is really a shameful thing!
Lin Feng was furious, but his tone remained restrained.
She was panting slightly, but didn't hear the two elders' response for a long time. She was worried that she was too angry and angered them, so she looked up.
Good news, the second elder didn't faint from anger.
Bad news, the second elder’s expression is very strange.
At this time, great-grandfather, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke: "Jiaojiao, I have heard the rumors you mentioned. It's just that the various families are unable to conquer the country, and it's not because of these."
Lin Fengdao: "Of course this is not the whole reason."
Great-grandfather added: "It is not the main reason either."
As long as they are well-informed, everyone will know who is more powerful, Shen Tang or Wu Xian, and the two states of Yan and Qian are basically in Shen Tang's hands. The local aristocratic families can escape, but the land and ancestral property cannot escape, and they will not leave easily unless absolutely necessary.
Great-grandfather continued: "Because your lord has many criminal records, and what he has done has very few precedents. Everyone's ancestral graves have been digged up, so how can each family not be afraid of her killing the family? Land property is the foundation of each family, and there are many of them. The origin is not clean, and some people even took advantage of the war to hide the tenants. Government offices in various places The financial deficit every year is caused by this. Your lord must take action on this!"
Lin Feng nodded: "This is natural!"
The land is in the hands of local snakes. The Lord has no land for the common people to cultivate, how can he collect taxes to maintain the operation of a local government office? No matter how powerful a brave warrior is in clearing up wasteland, he cannot "create a land out of nothing." All the land that can be cultivated has been cleared, but the quantity is still not enough. The newly cultivated fields are not fertile enough. Where are the fertile fields with high yields? Tian, the more the better.
What the local snake swallowed, spit it out!
Great-grandfather continued: "According to the tacit agreement in the past, when a piece of land changes ownership, each family will hand over a certain amount of land according to the situation within the territory. Generally speaking, the government guarantees 70%, and each family 30%. Occasionally, it also has 40%, but it is rare. On the other hand, Your lord's behavior in Heyin, Longwu, Sibao and other places obviously did not abide by this tacit agreement. She wants ten percent, how can everyone not be afraid?"
The family is not really afraid of death. ah. People are willing to give up their land and tenants in exchange for peace, but the ratio needs to be negotiated and compromised by both parties.
Shen Tang's performance made them worried about their respective prospects.
In addition, she beat and backstabbed her allies...
Lin Feng explained: "There was no backstabbing."
Zengzu pursed his lips: "So the beating is real."
Lin Feng: "..."
"Your master has done all kinds of things. Once she gets a firm foothold, Is it true that the butcher's knife will not fall? She has not expressed anything so far, and everyone's refusal is just to force her to express her position. It is better to give it a try. "
……
Rumors have longer legs than truth.
Zengzu said: "She has no children now. If the two parties really reach a tacit understanding, each family will not be stingy about sending someone to her side. It is a bit of an in-law relationship, and I feel more secure. In case anyone gives in. Your lord gave birth to the same bloodline..."
Who can refuse a good thing with low risk and high reward?
They do not reject Shen Jun's lust. As long as it does not harm the heirs or principals of the families, everything else can be discussed.
Lin Feng: "..."
Great-grandfather looked at Lin Feng and sighed: "But her attitude is very resolute, and she won't give in even half a step... Those with cleaner hands and feet and smaller families are naturally willing to spend money to eliminate disasters. They swallowed up the fields and hid them. There are not many people. Compared with the lives of the entire clan, gritting one's teeth is something that can be given up. She will not rush if she sees what she wants. Kill them all."
Lin Feng: "..."
Zengzu continued to sigh: "But other sects are different, there are many clansmen, and the expenses are high. There is no clan land left, and everyone in the clan will starve to death.”
If you are forced into a desperate situation, you will die anyway, so it is better to give it a try!
Lin Feng: "..."
So there are the list-beating faction and the beauty faction?
Great-grandfather smiled bitterly and shook his head: "After all, it is your lord who is planning the deeper plan. She is watching every move of each family, and she only waits for the final closing of the net. What happened last night may have kept everyone awake at night."< br>
What is more terrifying than death is counting when you will die.
“After all, it was just a bad move!”
Lin Feng finally came to his senses and tried to join the chat.
"Great-grandfather, great-uncle, Jiaojiao didn't lie."
The second elder: "..."
"My lord really doesn't know why each family can't conquer the land. Only when she learned the reason for rejection from her mouth did she realize He was angry, but he was unwilling to bear the bad breath, so he beat each family in the name of donating money to clear up the reputation. He was worried about the troubles and would monitor the movements of each family. If something went wrong, he would take the opportunity to make trouble. "The Lord's original words were to show shamelessness. Then tear off all the faces!
By the way, increase the amount of money you can rip off!
Beat the dishonest family and make another blackmail!
The second elder: "..."
The three of them looked at each other in the hall.
It took the old man holding the staff a long time to hold back a sentence: "Really?"
Lin Feng said: "How could my grandson lie to you?"
The old man was the first to break the defense. The voice suddenly rose: "No one in your lord's account knows about this tacit understanding?"
Because the country's political power changes so quickly, the last wave of chaos often continues before the end. In addition, the aristocratic families are more stubborn than the royal family, and the land handed over from the aristocratic families will soon come back. It took time to form this tacit understanding, each taking a step back.
"Others don't know, but the teacher really didn't mention it. He was just surprised that various families would refuse to conquer the land because of the absurd rumors spread by Tao Shenyu's old ministry..." Teacher Chu Yao's original words were [The current aristocratic family] When did you become so reserved?]
The implication——
Aristocratic families also talk about chastity?
The Lord’s side was even more straightforward: [The Elephant House, which was still open one day, joined the anti-pornography and illegal activities the next day. 】
"The other conspirators also don't know?"
Lin Feng considered: "Most of you gentlemen are from poor backgrounds, and occasionally have aristocratic families, but they are not major leaders, and the rest are from other places. For this land, Especially for such a secretive tacit understanding, it’s normal to not be clear about it, and I don’t know either.”
The old man’s face was twisted ferociously for a moment.
Of course, few people know about this kind of perfectionism that damages the appearance of the family. Even if it is spread to the outside world, it can only be assumed that these families understand the righteousness! In other words, what Lin Feng said was true -
He instantly thought of several sects that might "better to be broken than to be ruined." Didn't their deaths in vain?
Lin Feng also thought of this level.
The face is a bit embarrassing.
Immediately he said seriously: "No matter what, it is true that the various families discussed the conspiracy. They did not know the truth, so it does not mean that they died unjustly."
At most, they died without value.
Besides, all the families who surrounded us last night were in the lead.
They rushed forward, naturally because their own interests were harmed the most and their butts were the dirtiest. If it were left to He Yin Long Wu, they would all be the objects that the lord wanted. If there weren't too many families involved this time, the lord would be more than just ripping people off.
Just knock your head and split it in two.
Lin Feng squinted his eyes, suddenly thought of something, and said with a smile: "And each family wants to keep 30%, and they have a big appetite."
No, it is too big!
