Liu Yu turned to look at Wang Miaoyin: "Miaoyin, is this what the fat man said?"
Wang Miaoyin nodded: "Yes, the competition between aristocratic families is actually very fierce. You also know that Commander Xuan and Uncle Yan fought for the coach of Beifu, which almost broke up the Xie family. These are still cousins, not to mention those in the fifth server. We are distant relatives living outside the country, occupying rural fields under the banner of the master’s family, but doing unruly things, and asking the master’s family to deal with the aftermath after causing trouble. We are also unbearable. What we can really protect is, There are only relatives within the fifth server."
At this point, Wang Miaoyin paused: "Originally, if there had not been the Sun En Rebellion, Mr. Xianggong also intended to take back the land deeds of these people, forcing them to hand over the manor and fields in their hands and return them to the state. It is a pity that these land deeds were not before It is in the hands of the mafia, and Xi Chao also used this to restrain Mr. Xianggong and force him to make concessions. The reason why Mr. Xianggong wants to recruit young people like you to join the Xie family and become the Beifu Army. You have also made meritorious deeds on the battlefield, so you can be enfeoffed in a reasonable and legal manner. Wu Di, take back these manor fields."
Liu Yu suddenly realized: "No wonder he left his nephew alone and wanted to find heroes in our Jingkou to form a new Beifu Army. However, from this point of view, he is inviting wolves into the house and actively attracts outsiders to replace his own family. Even though these own family members People are just distant relatives.”
Wang Miaoyin sighed: "So what he did caused a strong counterattack from the mafia. Those land deeds from the founding of the country were in Qinglong's hands, so Xi Chao, the traitor, could win people's hearts, which attracted my father and Bai Hu to stand. On his side, he worked together to deal with Mr. Xianggong, and Mr. Xianggong's failure also proved that it is extremely difficult to seek change by relying on the power of the upper class of the family. Only by introducing external forces like you and relying on the support of the army to gain political power can we Change succeeds.”
Liu Yu sighed: "I misunderstood Mr. Xianggong. Whether he was dealing with aristocratic families or the mafia, he always sought change proactively and did not want the country to be controlled by these forces. Unfortunately, I did not do a good job back then, which caused him trouble. Today I can With such an achievement, I don’t know if he can rest in peace even though his soul is still in heaven.”
Wang Miaoyin said sternly: "As great as he is, the reform has failed. This is because he can only make changes within the system of the aristocratic family and the mafia, and cannot make up his mind to completely build his own army and take control of the political power. In fact, It's not that he hasn't thought about this, but he cherishes his reputation and is afraid of getting a reputation like Huan Wen. Now it seems that on this point, he lost, and he lost because there was no army that could protect him when he lost power."
Liu Yu said seriously: "I will learn this lesson. The power in the army must not be handed over to others casually. I left the army several times and was alone. I could hardly save my life, let alone my great cause. Miaoyin, neither am I. Fool, in the army, I will show kindness and maintain the absolute loyalty of the middle and lower-level generals to me. The two most important points are that one is to give them the opportunity to meritorious service, and the other is that in the future I will They were enfeoffed to places with enough land, and I am afraid that these lands will be taken from the tributaries of the concubines and noble families of your family."
Wang Miaoyin nodded: "As I said just now, I have no objection to this. There is no wealth for thousands of years in the world. If these tributaries and distant relatives make progress and have the opportunity to make contributions to improve themselves, then it would be best. If not, That family fell into decline and lost its title and manor in the end. We can't blame it on us. Even if the Xie family, the main branch of the Wang family, falls into decline in the future and loses all the titles of their ancestors, they can only blame themselves for not living up to expectations. You can't say that you don't have the ability and you want to occupy this position for a long time. This will only destroy the family and the country. Even the ancestors will never agree."
Liu Yu laughed: "This is Miaoyin, this is the strange woman who worked with me to change the world even if she eloped. With your words, what else do I have to worry about? Then just follow our agreement Come, in the land of Qingzhou, the enfeoffed soldiers guard the border, and the Murong family's pasture is given to the noble family to run in name, while the land in the six counties in the north of the Yangtze River is mostly allocated to the meritorious families this time as compensation, but Wu needs to be paid. In exchange for at least half of the land, as for the refugees and villagers, they can exist in Jiangbei within ten years, attached to the manors and villages of the aristocratic family, do you have anything else to add?"
Wang Miaoyin said calmly: "Qingzhou and the six counties of Jiangbei are emerging territories, and there is nothing to talk about. But within the Beifu Army, He Wuji died in battle this time, and the pattern of the three giants has been broken. What are you going to do with it? ?”
Liu Yu frowned. He Wuji's death once again made him heartbroken. He shook his head: "I'm afraid this cannot be decided in a short while. Although Nanyan has been defeated, the demon thieves have not been eliminated yet. I am now What worries me the most is that Xi Le will be eager to take credit and rashly fight the demon thief when the time is not ripe. If he is ambushed again and something goes wrong, the gates of Jiankang City will be wide open and the demon thief can grow. It's going so fast that even if I raise an army to rescue them, I might not be able to do it in time."
Wang Miaoyin nodded: "So, are you discussing with Mu Zhi and preparing to give the position to Liu Yi in exchange for his staying put?"
Liu Yu sighed: "I'm afraid there is no other choice. It's not that Xile doesn't know the strict consequences of greed for credit, but he is more willing to gamble than me. If there is a chance to surpass me, he will never let it go. Yes, Miaoyin, if he takes over the phase, what do you think?"
Wang Miaoyin shook her head and said in a deep voice: "This is absolutely impossible. How could you not ask for my opinion before making this decision? Liu Yu, you are not taking me and my mother seriously. It’s in.”
When Wang Miaoyin said this, her eyes widened, even her pink face turned red, her fists were clenched, and her teeth chattered. This was the first time Liu Yu saw this confidante, so angry. .
Liu Yu frowned and said, "Isn't this aspect always controlled by Mu Zhi? He also gave some power to Meng Chang. He is Liu Yi's ally. If Liu Yi can be equal to me, I even feel that He can beat me, and only this phase can satisfy him. The one who will lose the most is Fatty. He has to give up his phase and become the governor of Qingzhou, but you and your mother have nothing to lose."
Wang Miaoyin said bitterly: "How come there is no loss? Our losses are much greater than yours."
Liu Yu asked in surprise: "Is it because of Liu Tingyun? Are you using her power to take revenge on you?"
