After a long time, everyone who was suppressed by Zhaoju spoke out one after another——
"The old Imperial Master is so majestic! So majestic!"
"It's just that we must never talk about death lightly in the future... We still need the old Imperial Master to lead the way!"
"How dare you, a mere Mi Liang, dare to change the laws of your ancestors?"
"We can't teach him to do such things that harm the country and the people!"
As the ministers spoke, they felt truly relieved.
Jing Chong nodded repeatedly and looked at Zhaoju with a hint of admiration!
In terms of intelligence alone, this Zhao clan leader is indeed much better than me...
In any case, the situation at hand has become clear.
That little Mi Liang doesn't dare to change his ways at the moment. Even if he really wants to change in the future, he will definitely not be able to hold his arms against his thighs - how many nobles do we have in the Chu State? If everyone goes against the rules and even raises an army to rebel, even if Mi Liang's skills are all-powerful, there will be nothing he can do!
The most important thing at this moment is unity!
As long as everyone is united, no matter how awesome Xiong Wuliang is, there is nothing he can do!
Not to mention anything else - there are so many aristocratic families in the country, how many disciples and former officials are under their command?
If everyone goes on strike, Chu State will be shut down on the spot!
When Xiong Wuliang was carrying out reforms in the fiefdom, the four counties' families also went on strike together, but were easily solved by the students of Xiong Wuliang's Quyang Academy - but the size of Chu State was by no means comparable to that of just four counties.
Even if the scale of Quyang Academy were to expand tenfold, it would definitely not be able to provide the talent gap needed across the country!
Jing Chong smiled and said: "The key point is unity!"
"If Mi Liang's child dares to violate our rights, we must advance and retreat together."
"Those who pull the donkey but not the horse are the common enemies of the second and third sons!"
The ministers nodded one after another and smiled brightly: "What Mr. Jing Guo said is very true!"
"Ninety-eight percent of the power of Chu is in our hands - as long as we all advance and retreat together, no matter how tyrannical Mi Liang is, can he still dominate the entire Chu country?"
Feeling relaxed, everyone began to ridicule Qu Yuan and others...
"The ambitious reform faction is causing trouble to the Chu State and will be punished sooner or later!"
"Qu Yuan and his ilk are abominable!"
"Not to mention Le Yi, Shen Dao and others... I am not a great Chu noble, but I am so shy and occupy a high position in the Great Chu. I still want to change the law and harm the country? Is this the basis for advancement?"
"That Xiong Wuliang is not a good guy either... Just the fact that the capital city was set on fire shows that this guy is a rebellious traitor!"
"Yes, yes...if King Xian Zhaohuai hadn't taken the blame for him before he died, I would definitely teach him to look good now!"
Zhaoju and Jingchong looked at each other and smiled without saying a word.
…
The protagonist Xiong Wuliang, who was being scolded at the moment, was sitting in a temporary house in the city, squinting his eyes happily and drinking tea. There was a plate of fried golden pine nuts on his right hand, and he would grab a handful and throw them away from time to time. In the mouth.
Qu Yuan, Le Yi, Shen Dao, Zhao Hua and others were in front of Xiong Wuliang, handling government affairs with flying brushes.
The four Vajra's brows were furrowed and worried... which was in sharp contrast to Qu Yanghou's leisure and ease.
Xiong Wuliang sat for a long time and felt that he couldn't sit still, so he simply stretched his waist, stood up, and went to chat with Ying Zhuo...
"My lord, please stay!" Qu Yuan finally raised his head and said...
oh?
The Four King Kongs finally settled in Bengbu?
Xiong Wuliang raised his eyebrows and said earnestly: "Don't think that I am too idle - as a leader, I have my own things to be busy with, and you don't understand."
"Do you feel bitter? Do you feel tired?"
“The more you endure hardship and the more you struggle, the more you can make your life better!”
"You work hard here not for fame and fortune, but to realize the meaning of life!"
“This is a blessing—do you know what a blessing is?”
Le Yi and Shen didn't feel anything was wrong at all... Qu Yuan and Zhao Hua, the two old employees, were a bit difficult to deal with...
These words all sound familiar...
Qu Yuan took a deep breath and decided not to get entangled with Xiong Wuliang on these minor issues... Qu Yuan was particularly satisfied that this lazy little lord could now make up his mind to govern Chu.
But you can't put too much burden on him. If you scare him back to Quyang County and hide in silence, it will be very bad!
Isn't it just work...I'll do it!
"My lord." Qu Yuan ignored Xiong Wuliang's powerful CPU and said in a deep voice: "The aftermath of the Huainan Plain has begun in an orderly manner."
"Winter is about to begin, and there are only two things to solve—"
"The first is a house to keep out the cold, and the second is food for the winter!"
"In the final analysis...it's just a lack of money and food!" Qu Yuan said concisely and concisely.
Xiong Wuliang put his hand on his forehead, feeling short of breath——
Xiong Wuliang is also very familiar with these conversations... A few years ago, when he was in the early stages of building his own fiefdom, he heard a lot of such requests for money and things.
At that time, by virtue of his cleverness and blackmail skills, he obtained several start-up funds and solved the primitive accumulation problem of fiefdom development... Later, under his wise leadership, Quyang County It has almost become the world's business center. Xiong Wuliang has not heard the words "lack of money" for a long time.
"As for the matter of money and food, I will find a way..." Xiong Wuliang felt a splitting headache and couldn't help but cover his head, saying: "I still have some money and food on hand, you can use it first."
"I will get the money as soon as possible! Don't push me, don't push me..."
Qu Yuan, Zhao Hua and others looked at each other...still dubious.
Although Marquis Quyang has always been good at creating miracles - the current gap in money and food cannot be compared to the tens of thousands of gold that Xiong Wuliang obtained through clever robbery.
The problem of resettling millions of civilians in the entire Huainan Plain... the money and food required is simply astronomical.
"Junhou, this is no small matter." Le Yi's face was very serious: "If there is not enough money and food, the refugees will rise up and cause harm to the Chu country, which will be no less than the 'Allied Forces Attack Chu' battle that just passed..."
"If you want to handle it perfectly, then the money and food required, according to our estimation - should be around one million gold!"
"The money and food that you have accumulated in your fief over the past few years is only one hundred thousand gold at best... Even if you spend all your money, the remaining gap will still be an astronomical figure of nine hundred thousand gold."
Nine hundred thousand gold, what is the concept?
Back then, Xiong Wuliang tricked Zhongli Jun Mi Fei and drained Mi Fei's county of land, but he could only scrape together tens of thousands of gold.
Although Mi Fei was just a modest country feudal lord... he couldn't compare with those top wealthy families with real wealth - but it could still explain how huge a number nine hundred thousand gold was.
Xiong Wuliang was about to speak, but he heard hurried footsteps outside the door, so he closed his mouth.
A moment later, Huang Wu, the commander of the Qingyu Guards, pushed the door in, cupped his hands towards Xiong Wuliang, and then glanced at Qu Yuan and the other four, his lips trembled slightly, but he hesitated to speak...
Seeing this, Qu Yuan and the others were about to stand up and leave, but they saw Xiong Wuliang wave his hand: "There is no need to be shy - everyone present is my confidant. If Commander Huang has something to say, just say it!"
Huang Wu breathed a sigh of relief and immediately reported the report urgently——
