While Gongsun Zhu was saying these words, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
Perhaps because of his unique experience, he can clearly see the chaos in the world in the future. There will be countless Guizhou leaders like him in the past.
Those nightmare-like days will always be with them.
And he...can't do anything!
He even knew very well what was going to happen next. Not only was the people in dire straits, but the most important thing was that this incident also directly contributed to the birth of a large number of powerful people.
Among them, his uncle Gongsun Zan was one of the beneficiaries of this incident.
The remnants of the Yellow Turban not only affected Yan, Qing, and Xuzhou.
It’s not just about making life miserable for the people in these state capitals and their subordinate counties.
This incident also contributed to Gongsun Zan's reputation, and Zang Ba established a separate regime in Qingxu Realm.
According to Gongsun Zhu, these events also led to the deaths of Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou, Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei, and Zheng Sui, the prime minister of Rencheng.
His good friend Cao Cao was able to enter Yanzhou and surrendered to the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, and he rose to prominence ever since.
But thinking of this "good friend" Cao Mengde, Gongsun Zhu also had to say that he was really lucky.
During this period, Gongsun Zhu and Cao Mengde also exchanged letters frequently.
He knew that Cao Mengde had obtained the position he wanted and had a higher and better reputation.
And all this must be thanked to his family.
Yes, it’s family!
After eunuch... Gongsun Zhu only knew that this word represented Cao Mengde's identity.
But when he saw that Cao Mengde was popular in the army and even respected by everyone, he became more curious about what the other party was capable of.
As he got to know Cao Mengde, he realized that Cao Mengde not only had abilities, but also family...
The Cao Cao family has a very strong career experience.
In this period of time alone, as well as in the previous period, there are already Zhongchangshi and Feitinghou Cao Teng;
Cao Ding, the prefect of Wu County and minister of law;
Cao Bao, the governor of Yingchuan; Cao Chi, the sergeant and captain of Changshui;
Visitor Cao Yin;
Cao Luan, the governor of Yongchang;
There is also Cao Mengde's biological father, who directly committed corruption in the treasury, and even openly embezzled the wealthy Taiwei Cao Song.
These are the people, although Cao Cao always wants to dig his ancestral graves.
But Gongsun Zhu knew that they would still give Cao Mengde what he wanted.
This is family.
He also has a family, but unfortunately... he is not the one supported by the family.
At this time, Guan Ning looked at Gongsun Zhu in front of him and asked another question directly.
"The captain thinks, whether these Yellow Turbans or bandits, how did they come into being?"
"..." Gongsun Zhu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw Guan Ning suddenly changing the topic.
Then he spoke slowly.
"Natural disaster...man-made disaster?"
"It is a very serious natural and man-made disaster!" Guan Ning sighed directly at this time, "There is no need to say more about the continuous natural disasters for more than a hundred years.
It's just this man-made disaster...
Although this eunuch is an extension of His Majesty's imperial power.
But now this eunuch has become a complete disaster.
Some time ago, the world has been experiencing natural disasters for many years.
And the imperial court, or rather the few eunuchs around His Majesty, were still trying hard to persuade the Emperor to order ten yuan of land tax from all over the world to repair the palace.
In addition, timber and aragonite were sent to Taiyuan, Hedong, and Didao counties, and the headquarters of each state and county sent them to the capital.
After that, the Huangmen Changshi Ling was still obstructing him. Perhaps the captain was not aware of these things.
But this is no secret to the world.
Those eunuchs and servants used His Majesty to do such evil things.
Then he continued to buy at a forced discount, hiring one for ten, and directly lining his own pockets.
It was because of these things they did that the wood rotted away and the palace failed year after year.
The money was collected to build the palace, but there has been no movement in the palace for so many years.
If it is said that someone in the court is causing obstruction, to be honest... I am afraid that even His Majesty himself would be embarrassed to say anything.
It's just that they have their own methods, so if His Majesty sees it, they will pretend that they haven't seen it at all.
It's a pity that if His Majesty didn't say anything, they would naturally continue to do this the next year.
Year after year, the people are so innocent, how can they withstand this situation?
As the saying goes, what goes up works and what goes down works, since this is the case.
Does the captain think that the officials and even subordinates here will be clean and innocent?
Not to mention the subordinate officials, there is no need to even talk about the county magistrate.
In the past few years, which of the governors and governors of various prefectures, counties and counties has not been privately transferred below?
What can be done when the people are complaining?
Everyone who was solicited by the imperial edict was ordered to make a secret agreement with Xiyuan Zou, and he was named "Zhongshi"!
To put it simply, they are all excuses given to themselves by those who are corrupt and pervert the law.
And it’s the biggest reason in the world!
These eunuchs colluded with local counties and counties to embezzle money and food from each other.
This is one of the reasons why the world is in such chaos and people are rushing to follow him.
At the same time, the captain was born in Youzhou, so he should know that this Youzhou is connected to the wilderness. It is a barren land. Is there any way to increase his income?
It can be said that the cost is very high, and it depends entirely on the help of other states and counties to support it.
In the words of Youzhou, Sui Changqing and Jizhou are raised by the two states like father and mother.
I heard that each year's taxes from these two states must first be transferred to Youzhou over 200 million to meet the needs.
Otherwise...tsk tsk tsk...
In addition, His Majesty wanted to cast bronze figures, but the state supply was insufficient, so he issued an order to transfer people's fields and collect ten coins per acre.
This time, it was more difficult than ordinary disasters.
Especially for the people in places like Jizhou and Qingzhou, because they have to supply the imperial court, Youzhou and Your Majesty.
But that's all they have food for, and that's all they can do...
Youzhou is connected to Wuhuan, and Bingzhou is connected to Xianbei.
In the past few years, the captain has been out of the border, but has he seen how difficult it is for the world? Isn’t it easy on the border?
But during the period of Deng Zhao and Queen Mother Deng more than a hundred years ago, the Qiang people in the northwest suddenly became stronger for some unknown reason, and they were constantly fighting and competing with the Han Dynasty.
There is still a winner and loser.
Until the sixth year of Yonghe period of my great Han Dynasty...
This has already begun in the northwest.
The three auxiliaries of the Xiqiang bandits in the Yongliang land in the northwest surrounded the Anding land and plundered wantonly.
Ma Xian, the general who conquered the west at the time, attacked the troops from various counties with the intention of pacifying the northwest.
But the final result was that the battle was not resolved.
If we cannot conquer the northwest, I will be stuck in the quagmire of the northwest and be unable to extricate myself!
These are all part of the chaos in the world, and they are also the part that must be mentioned!
And this is not all..."
