Shi Xie thought very well. It was impossible for him to clean up the hidden dangers left by his previous actions, so he could just let the country clean up.
To be honest, Shi Xie is not afraid that Chen Xi will come down to clean up and kill him as well, because Shi Xie knows what he is doing, and also knows that Chang'an's attitude is to forget about Yuan Feng's past, so after Shi Xie is sure that the Han Dynasty is still strong, He focused on suppressing local clans, suppressing the collusion between local bureaucrats and officials, and getting closer to the central government.
This is also why Chen Xi and Liu Bei have a good sense of Shi Xie. Although this guy is a bit adaptable in this regard, he sees that the other party stabilizes Rinan, Jiuzhen, maintains the unity of the country, and is an official himself. , there is no intention to pursue the previous matter.
It can be said that at this level, Shi Xie only needs to work honestly, and then gradually cut off his previous ambitions, suppress the clan, and it is only a matter of time before he clears his name and goes ashore.
You don't even need to clear your name, you just need to fish out your own family, lead Chang'an to step down, and kill the others, and the matter will be over.
As for saying that the scholar's family is unclean, no one is clean these days, except the eldest brother, the second brother. But we have a tendency to become clean, and we have taken the initiative to move closer to Chang'an. Liu Bei and others will definitely not pursue it. Since we participated in the court meeting, we are sure This is what Shi Xie had in mind after the Han Empire was resurrected.
This point is indeed true, and Shi Xie did implement this rule honestly, but the problem is that the Shi family was in too deep. The Shi family did not start running Jiaozhou from Shi Xie, but from Shi Xie The business has been in business since his father's time, and now Shi Xie is almost seventy years old, so even if he wants to cut it, it will take a certain amount of time.
Even if it originally took a certain amount of time, after five years, it was almost done. However, Shi Xie couldn't bear the discord among the Shi family members. Shi Xie finally managed to get rid of his brothers. However, when the arrangement was about to be completed, he discovered that his son was still working as a Jiaozhou official. The dream of a scholar in Jiaozhou!
It's a pity that there is no time at this time. Chen Xi is here. Shi Xie does not have another five years to continue cutting, so he can only send his daughter to guide him. What Shi Wan said is true. Her father did indeed do this. Efforts are being made to suppress the clan.
But the truth does not mean the truth, because it is only part of it. When Shi Xie took action, Shi Hui pretended to be red and contacted him again, and Shi Hui was the legitimate son.
Therefore, in the eyes of the Jiaozhou clan, Shi Xie was only forced by the pressure of Chang'an, but in fact he was still on the same side as them. After all, this Shi Xie family could not only be represented by Shi Xie, but also by the future legitimate son. After all, Shi Xie was not immortal. Depending on the situation, one day Shi Hui will become the talker of the Shi family.
By the time Shi Xie knew these things, it was already too late. Even though he knew his son was more like his father, Shi Xie was still a little unprepared for his son's actions.
"Brother, what should we do now?" Shi Yi said in a panic.
If Shi Xie changed his previous thinking because he saw the power of the Central Plains and understood the strength of the Han Dynasty, then most people in the Shi family still have the idea that Jiaozhou is the Jiaozhou of the Shi family. This is also an important reason why Shi Xie was kept hidden.
Not only was Shi Hui pretending to be red-faced, but the two brothers Shi Yi and Shi Xi were also covering up their nephew's behavior. Shi Xie's warning did not have the desired effect.
The lost Shi Xie slowly raised his head, then looked at his two somewhat panicked brothers, and asked hoarsely, "What do you think we should do?"
"Or? It's the other way around." Shi Yi asked cautiously.
Shi Xie suddenly became very angry and laughed back. What does it mean to be unable to return and what does it mean to be ignorant of current affairs? This is it. Hearing his brother's self-centered expression, Her Royal Highness the Princess, the Imperial Concubine, the Taiwei, and the Minister Pu She are all here. They directly detained him, and then incited the people of Jiaozhou to rebel. Shi Xie smiled, a smile that was a little cruel, and a smile that made Shi Yi's heart tremble.
"Do you really think Jiaozhou is still the same Jiaozhou it used to be?" Shi Xie looked at the two brothers and said with a somewhat disappointed look.
"Those field soldiers in Jiaozhou, those who rely on the processing factories for their livelihood, are no longer our people. Facing Chang'an, I have been keeping a low profile. You are better off, you are better off!" Shi Xie kicked his younger brother. He kicked, and then punched his brother angrily. All the plans he had planned over the years were ruined by these people, and Shi Hui died.
Shi Yi didn't dare to resist at all. Shi Xie was the head of the family who really brought this family to the top. Most of the strength of the Shi family was accumulated by Shi Xie. Unfortunately, Shi Xie was still old.
In the eyes of others, Shi Xie, who is nearly 70 years old, is an old man who is about to be buried. Therefore, in the future, we still need to see Shi Xie's descendants. This is why the legitimate son Shi Hui can win over successfully.
On the one hand, the clans in Jiaozhou have the idea of taking these things. On the other hand, as Shi Xie gets older, this young man Shi Hui seems to be the hope of the Shi family. There is no advance bet, just a very simple father. After a dead son, Shi Hui seems to be a very suitable successor.
It's that simple, and then combined with Shang Shi Hui's ambition and the legacy of the Shi family, he finally succeeded in making Shi Hui die under Liu Bei's sword.
"Give me all the materials." After Shi Xie was tired, he half-leaned on the pillar, then looked at his two stupid brothers, sighed, closed his eyes, and opened them again. Without the slightest hesitation, "Prepare troops and horses."
"Are you going to surround the inn?" Shiyi raised his head and asked, and then Shixie kicked Shiyi out. He looked at the shivering Shixie who was kneeling aside, "You are really trash!"
Shi Xie knew too much, understood the magic of Liu Bei, understood Chen Zichuan's abilities, and even knew his position in the hearts of those two people. Chen Xi almost clearly told Shi Xie that before Shi Xie's death, the position of the governor of Jiaozhou, It will not change.
Although the King of Jiaozhou is good, he must have his life. If his virtue is not worthy of his position, his death is inevitable. What Shi Xie wants is the governor of Jiaozhou, not the King of Jiaozhou from some scholar family.
"Let's organize the troops and purge Panyu tonight. Kill everyone on the list." Shi Xie said coldly. Since it can't be good for you, me or everyone, then kill all the problematic ones. What clan? What kind of collaborators are there? The scholars are from the Han Dynasty, not from Jiaozhou. Please go to hell as soon as possible.
When the sky was dark, Shi Xie came with a hunched body and a pile of materials. This was something that had not been given to Chen Xi before. At that time, Shi Xie was still thinking about removing his son. After cleaning the others, his son The line was broken. Unfortunately, it is useless now.
"I said he won't fight back. If you make a mistake, you have to admit it." Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei calmly and said. In fact, at this time, Chen Xi also roughly estimated how Liu Bei got the complete information. Except for those middle and low-level officers The information on hand should also include information given by Shi's family.
"Zhongkang, please bring in the governor." Liu Bei greeted Xu Chu. As long as Shi Xie did not rebel, Liu Bei could accept Shi Xie. After all, Shi Xie had been moving closer to the center.
Soon Shi Xie climbed onto the high platform, and after entering, Shi Xie bowed tremblingly to Liu Bei and Chen Xi, "The sinful minister Shi Xie has met the Taiwei and the minister Pu She."
"Can it be solved?" Chen Xi glanced at Liu Bei, and then motioned Liu Bei not to speak. He didn't want to argue with Shi Xie about useless things. To be realistic, he just asked one question, can it be solved? As for Shi Xie's position, Chen Xi doesn't want to move it. Unless Shi Xie rebels, Chen Xi will replace him. If Shi Xie still moves closer to Chang'an, Chen Xi will turn a blind eye to other actions.
"The results will come out tonight." Shi Xie looked like he had realized something. As for Shi Hui, no one mentioned it. He just died like this. Shi Hui can at least enter his ancestral grave. If he was really ignorant, he launched the Shi family's conspiracy in Jiaozhou. power, it would have to be a heinous crime.
"I'm watching here." Chen Xi nodded, and then saw the fire in Panyu, but except for the soldiers led by the county lieutenant, there was no one putting out the fire on the road, while Shi Xie lowered his head and knelt aside. Speaking, if I had known today, why bother in the beginning.
If the Shi family personally cleans up these clan forces in the Jiaozhou bureaucracy, it will inevitably leave hidden dangers. In the future, it will be impossible for the Shi family to be able to control the clan forces. In addition, most of these people have contact with the Shi family. This is the foundation for the rise of the Shi family in the past few decades. Although these people have become more and more unruly with the development of time, there is still a touch of incense and passion.
This is also the reason why Shixie doesn't want to clean it up himself, but leaves it to Chang'an to clean it up.
Except for concealing the fact that his son was the mastermind, there were no other changes to the information prepared by Shi Xie. In fact, he had already been mentally prepared at that time, but the dispute between the legitimate concubine and his concubine was really open to outsiders. What a joke.
Since Shi Xie dared to borrow Chen Xi's sword, he was somewhat prepared. After all, according to the normal handling method, he would clean up the peripheral areas first. By the time the Shi Xie was found, many things had been destroyed in the process of thorough investigation, and there were not enough The evidence is that it is impossible to determine the depth of Shi Hui's involvement in this matter, and Shi Xie has always been close to Chang'an.
Therefore, if you really want to investigate from the outside in, Shi Hui will most likely be fined with three drinks of wine, because there is no evidence, and there is no need to fall out, the damned people are dead!
It's a pity that the dispute between the legitimate sons and the concubines is that Shi Hui is the legitimate son, not the eldest son. Everyone wants his father's position, and he happens to have a sword, so Liu Bei saw the complete information and realized Shi Hui's status as the mastermind. So Shi Hui died.
Chen Xi didn't react at the time, but Chen Xi knew to some extent that this information was not so easy to obtain, and I think Lai Shixie also knew what was going on.
But the deal is already done, and there is no point in knowing it. It doesn't matter who made the move or who handed the sword. It's rare to be confused. Just continue to be a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty. There is no need to think too much.
