Great Tang Broom Star: Chapter 907 big win
Chapter 907 Great Victory
Jia Pingan left calmly.
There was a lot of noise in the hall.
"Nonsense, alarmist, grandstanding!"
An old minister was roaring, spewing saliva everywhere.
Li Zhi glanced at him, remembering that Baiqi had given him the news that this old minister had a lot of land in his family, and the farmer was not a tenant farmer, but a slave.
The tenant farmer and the owner are in an employment relationship. You can't abuse and scold them at will, let alone deduct money and food.
But slaves are different. Slaves are like the old scalpers of the master’s house. They can do whatever they ask you to do, and they will kill and eat meat if they disagree.
So Jia Ping'an's words can be regarded as poking his lungs.
An official of the Li family was also roaring, but he found that the faces of the two officials of the same family were ashen and silent.
What do you mean?
Li Yifu is pushing...
"Jia Ping'an wants to dig out the roots!"
yes!
Where is the foothold of the aristocratic families and dignitaries?
…
"Some people say that the foothold of aristocratic families is learning. This is to put gold powder on their faces. Their foothold is not knowledge, but...people!"
The prince hurried over after learning about this, but met Jia Pingan on the way.
"Their ancestors were all officials. Thanks to the blessing of the so-called Jiupin Zhongzheng System, one person was an official, and officials were officials for generations. Gradually, they accumulated a huge family business and money. With money and endless land and population, they talked. The portions are different…”
"Then they teamed up, claiming to be a powerful family, more than a dozen, dozens of big families joined hands, and the emperor would bow his head for it."
Li Hong was a little puzzled, "Uncle, why are they so tyrannical?"
"Because they have people."
Jia Pingan said with a smile: "After generations have been officials, their relationship in the officialdom is intricate. After joining forces, they can influence the court. It is easy for their children to become officials. With a network of connections, their children's promotion is like drinking water. easy…
Year after year, their power is like a spider web covering the entire country, which is why the emperor fears them..."
"And the root of all this comes from the population they hold in their hands. With slaves, there will be farming, with farming, there will be money and grain, and with money and grain, there will be capital to expand yourself... Prince, remember, People are fundamental."
In the later generations, Xu Jie, the lone hero Xu Jie who is known as being as honest as water, also bought a lot of land in his hometown, and his reputation was ruined in the end. What cleanliness is like water, old-fashioned seeks the country; what children and grandchildren have knowledge and good family education, the family will continue to prosper, this will only attract ridicule... Everyone knows that the farm population is the foundation of the family's prosperity.
"Without the support of money, food and capital, those so-called families of poems and books will collapse within a few generations. Prince, you have to remember, flowing water does not rot."
Jia Ping'an lowered his voice, "Their reliance is nothing but money and food."
I will give you a bad medicine first, and later...
The new society continues to expand, giving you a hard blow from the perspective of the imperial examination.
Then the family-oriented values no longer prevailed in the court.
The emperor looked at the family members with wariness in his eyes, and would quietly weaken their foundations... For example, to curb land annexation, clean up illegally annexed land and slaves, and all land populations have to pay taxes...
Without this confidence, the aristocratic families no longer have the confidence to fight back and forth by relying on knowledge... At that time, with the rise of new learning, the aristocratic families were weakened.
A brand new balance has been formed in the hall.
This is the general trend!
Jia Pingan thought about the general situation for a long time.
Li Hong nodded, "Go back, Uncle."
Jia Pingan nodded, and looked back after walking for a while, but Li Hong was in a daze.
The baby is thinking about what he just said.
In the hall, Li Zhi was rather annoyed by Jia Pingan's sudden firing, and so was Wu Mei.
"He is too impulsive." Li Zhi whispered to Wu Mei beside him.
"Yes." Wu Mei frowned and said, "He's doing it for Li Jingye... loyalty! But this is the court, not a place to talk about loyalty. But it's not a bad thing to have loyalty anyway, and it can't be used for those who are ruthless. no…"
I told you that the boy disturbed the court and should be punished. But you told me that this is a manifestation of loyalty, and only loyal courtiers are loyal.
Where is this?
Li Zhi is angry.
Wu Mei was also quite annoyed, thinking that this matter would trigger a backlash from the elite, she wished she could hang Brother up.
This time, instead of drying it, just whip it with a whip!
Hanging!
right!
that's all!
Wu Mei swears that this time she will not be easily fooled by him... It seems that she can't do it unless she is ruthless.
Seeing her grit her teeth and become ruthless, Li Zhi said with relief: "When you should be concerned, you should be concerned, and when you should be ruthless, you should not be soft-hearted."
Wu Mei nodded solemnly.
This time, I will definitely not be soft-hearted.
"Your Majesty."
Li Ji got up, "The minister echoed what the Duke of Jia said."
Cheng Zhijie got up, "Your Majesty, Duke Jia's words are full of compassion for slaves. He is asking for good treatment of slaves. Let us and others who have slaves not be cruel..."
He looked at those civil servants, "The officials of the Tang Dynasty all pride themselves on being moral gentlemen. Why do they not agree to such requests, but swear wildly? I think this is wrong, right?"
Liang Jianfang got up and said: "Shouldn't a moral gentleman be sympathetic to the world?"
"Xiao Jia didn't talk about the abolition of slavery, why did he object?"
Xu Jingzong got up, Li Zhi's eyelids twitched wildly, and Wu Mei also felt a little palpitation.
This confidant is good at everything, but he can't control his mouth...
Xu Jingzong said, "You want to say that slaves are cattle and horses, but who will beat the cattle and horses in the family without reason? There are still laws in the court, but it is a crime to slaughter a farm cattle. If this is the case with a farm cattle, why is it that people are not as good as a cow?"
"Xiao Jia said that people like to torture their own kind in order to seek a sense of superiority. I didn't believe it in the past, but now I see...it's true." He took a deep breath, "The so-called moral gentleman is just a beast with no face and skin, old man I am deeply ashamed to be with you..."
A group of people blushed, as if Xu Jingzong had pulled off their underwear, revealing their ugly buttocks. Their anger was like flames, and they finally turned into saliva and spewed away.
"Bitch dog slave!"
"Traitor Xu, you sycophant!"
There was a burst of cursing!
Xu Jingzong, who was in a precarious situation, was not afraid, and criticized one by one.
Wu Mei said flatly: "Your Majesty, it's not that they disagree. They regard slaves as their own private property, and no outsiders are allowed to comment."
Li Zhi nodded, "I know."
What I want to do with my private property is my business, and even the emperor can't comment.
This is the style of the aristocratic family.
That's why Jia Pingan's reasoning is impeccable, but they still can't move them.
There was a burst of mad tearing!
Li Zhi shook his head, thinking it was useless.
Xu Jingzong was frothing from the corners of his mouth, and he was still able to fight even out of breath.
Cui Jian came out suddenly.
It's Xiao Cui!
The old man rested for a while and recovered his blood.
Xu Jingzong temporarily retired.
Cui Jian is a person with vested interests. Everyone is looking forward to seeing him speak.
"Your Majesty, the voice of Duke Jia...seconded!"
Damn it!
Is there trouble in the family?
Li Yifu was confused.
He knew that Cui Jian and Jia Ping'an had a good relationship, but how could Cui Jian and He De dare to stand for Jia Ping'an on such a big issue?
Another official stood up, "Your Majesty, my minister...seconded!"
"Second minister!"
"Second minister!"
Li Zhi was stunned.
All the officials were stunned.
Because the people who stood up were all officials from aristocratic families.
From the gray-haired old man to the high-spirited middle-aged...they all have the same attitude.
"Mr. Jia's words are very true, and I agree with you."
This...wrong!
Something is wrong with you!
Li Yifu found that these officials either looked blank or resentful...
What does this mean?
As the largest slave owner, the emperor actually didn’t like the people below to keep slaves, because every population was a tax point and even a potential soldier.
But the group of vested interests is too strong, and he can only endure it.
Now they actually take the initiative to bow their heads...
What are you waiting for?
"So, it can be a permanent example!"
The emperor made a final decision, and then Xu Jingzong personally took action to draw up the edict...
The officials gathered today, if this decree passed, who would dare to oppose it?
Li Zhi was very happy. Later, when the officials dispersed, he found that something was wrong with the queen.
"This is...not right."
Wu Mei asked suspiciously: "Why do those people agree?"
"Since they agreed, I have always felt that there is something in my heart, but I can't remember it."
Li Zhi frowned.
Wu Mei suddenly clenched her hands into fists.
"Your Majesty, that fire!"
Li Zhi suddenly realized.
"That's right, the fire almost killed the backbone of a group of aristocratic families. It is said that those who rescued them were a group of slaves, and those slaves were severely beaten by their masters..."
The blackened emperor and empress looked at each other.
"Safety?"
Wu Mei shook her head, "If this kind of opportunity comes across, Ping An will be more happy to see them burned to death."
Jia Ping'an has a lot of grievances and grievances with aristocratic families...
"If you want to be an important minister, you must have your own governance thinking, and this thinking must be consistent. Jia Pingan's thinking is to oppose aristocratic families and all mergers..."
Li Zhi nodded, "Thus he and the aristocratic family have become deadly enemies, irreconcilable deadly enemies."
…
Some of the ministers who went out shouted: "I remember, that fire, that fire!"
Everyone suddenly realized.
Li Jigang thought of this.
Xu Jingzong came over, "Xiao Jia..."
Li Ji shook his head, "Little Jabba must burn those people to death."
In Jia Ping’an’s political philosophy, aristocratic families do more harm than good to the country, so he can only cheer when he sees a group of aristocratic leaders being burned to death.
Cui Jianzai explained, "Compared with improving the conditions of slaves, he is more willing to see the aristocratic families be weakened."
An old man sighed: "This is luck. We have received the favor of slaves, and we have to repay it now. If I wait to oppose this matter today, Jia Ping'an will definitely spread the word that we are ungrateful and ungrateful... we I can bear anything, but I can't bear such a bad reputation."
…
Jia Pingan, who walked to the palace gate, was humming.
"You are like a fire in that winter...a fire..."
Wu Shun's carriage was waiting outside the palace gate.
This woman...is really a brownie!
The coachman turned around and said something, and the curtain of the car was lifted, revealing Wushun's charming face.
She said sarcastically: "I heard at the gate of the palace that you made a big disturbance in the court today, which aroused the anger of the officials and the emperor. Now you came out before the court meeting was over, let me think about it..."
Wu Shun covered his forehead as if thinking.
But Jia Pingan ignored her at all and passed her by.
Wu Shun let go of his hand immediately, and taunted loudly, "A slave is an animal. If you speak for a slave, you are an enemy of the world. You have been kicked out by His Majesty, right? Just wait for the follow-up, and you are still good-looking. "
The coachman's cheeks trembled slightly, his eyes darkened.
He is also a slave, a slave of the Wu clan.
These words were like needle pricks, making him uncomfortable.
But he could only bow his head, otherwise, even if Wu Shun killed him, at most he would report a medical death.
Every year, the total number of slaves who "died due to illness" from slave-holding families is not a small number.
Jia Pingan gave her a **** without looking back.
Wu Shun didn't know the meaning of this action, but he felt the contempt and disdain.
"Bitch!"
Wu Shun sneered because everyone around him was laughing.
Everyone didn’t know that Jia Ping’an went in to set off cannons today, but Wushun was different. She was the emperor’s favorite pet, and the palace servants who had left the palace just now quietly told her about it.
"Jia Ping'an spoke for slaves."
"This is a mantis' arm."
"He also offended the world."
The so-called people of the world refer to those powerful officials, that is, the upper middle class. The term "people under heaven" does not include ordinary people. In other words, in the eyes of the upper class, there is no common people at all.
The common people are just the stratum to be exploited.
is also a tool man.
And slaves are not even tool people, they are tool animals.
Li Jingye made the first move and failed.
Everyone can predict Jia Ping'an's move again.
But he still failed.
"The gentlemen have come out."
A large group of courtiers are leaving the palace.
Wu Shun can only avoid... No way, her identity is embarrassing.
She saw two familiar officials talking.
is approaching.
The voice gradually became clearer.
"...The Duke of Jia spoke for slaves...absurd. If you beat a slave to death with a 100-stick stick, you will be punished for three years. If you abuse a female slave with a 100-stick stick, you will be punished for two years. If a slave is guilty, he can only be convicted by the government, not in private... And strictly order the world to strictly enforce the law..."
"This old man thought it was ridiculous, but people from aristocratic families stood up to support..."
"Mr. Jia is lucky. The fire made them have to stand up and support them, otherwise they would be wolf-hearted. Aristocratic families can accept everything, but they can't accept a bad reputation."
"How many people will feel uncomfortable now, let them treat slaves as human beings, that is absolutely impossible, hey!"
Wu Shun was stunned.
"What's the meaning?"
A palace official came to pick her up, Wu Shun got out of the carriage and followed her in, and when he got to a place where there were few people, he asked, "Then Jia Ping'an's suggestion is so ridiculous that it passed?"
The palace man was stunned, and his eyes became more cold, "Yes."
Strictly speaking, she is also a slave, but fortunately, she was stared at by foreign ministers in the palace, so the emperor could not kill the palace servants as he wished.
But the rabbit died and the fox was sad...
"That lunatic is so lucky..."
Wu Shun chattered endlessly, "Slaves are livestock..."
Arrived at the place later, the palace servants had to go in first to report, and Wu Shun was waiting outside.
The palace man went in and reported: "Your Majesty, Mrs. Han is asking to see... Madam looks very unhappy."
This is just a casual report, very loyal.
Wang Zhongliang's eyelids twitched.
The queen is raising a baby, Wu Shun is unhappy...why?
Li Zhi's smile stiffened, and he said lightly: "Tell her that I am very busy, and I will be gone today."
The palace servants saluted and took leave.
Wu Shun is looking forward to meeting the emperor outside... Now the emperor is more cautious, meeting only a few times a month, and rarely spending time with their mother and daughter at the same time.
She has recently pondered some tricks to please men, and she is waiting to show her skills today.
The palace servants came out, Wu Shun raised his head slightly, and stepped up the steps.
The palace man looked at her condescendingly, "Your Majesty has too many political affairs and has no time to see Madam. Madam, please go back."
…
Li Ji returned to the value room, making people rush to call Li Jingye.
"Ah Ong!"
Li Jingye came, his eyes turned, and he fixed on Ma Qiang.
Li Ji has a headache... This horse has been played by Li Jingye many times, and it will be destroyed sooner or later.
"Just now the court discussed matters, and the monarch and ministers have agreed to treat slaves well."
Li Jingye was stunned.
Li Ji said slowly: "Master beat slaves to death, one hundred rods, three years in prison. Those who abuse female slaves, one hundred rods, two years in prison. Slave crimes are punished by the government, masters are not allowed to convict the crimes without authorization...and the monarchs and ministers agree Law enforcement, the order is now under review, and there will be no more obstacles."
"This is difficult..." Li Jingye was out of breath, "Ah Weng, but you..."
He knows the difficulty of this matter, this suggestion is against the slave holders all over the world, so he can only go forward alone.
Li Ji smiled slightly, "It's Xiao Jia."
"Brother..."
Li Jingye's eyes glistened with tears.
…
Jia Ping'an returned home.
"how?"
Di Renjie asked with a smile.
The two were in the front yard, and Jia Pingan nodded.
congratulations!
Di Renjie praised: "This matter is difficult, but Ping An, your move will shine on future generations... you can celebrate."
"Hui Yingmo is going to become an alcoholic."
Jia Ping'an couldn't understand that people in this era often drink and celebrate.
Jia's family now has a population of dozens, and the daily food prepared in the kitchen is huge.
Cao Er carefully prepared the food and wine and sent them to the study.
"Once this matter is completed, there will be a horizontal knife hanging above the heads of those slave owners." Di Renjie drank a glass of wine and said comfortably: "The important thing is to get off to a good start. Ping An, what is your purpose for this matter?" ?”
"My goal..." Jia Pingan really doesn't like to drink alcohol in the morning, and after barely taking a sip, he feels uncomfortable, "I know that many scumbags need to be severely punished, and I wish their children and grandchildren could be slaves. It can't be too much When I grow up, my goal is... to become a commoner after three generations of slavery."
One person is a slave, and all children and grandchildren are slaves. This policy is too cruel.
"Slave from the Tang Dynasty." Jia Pingan added.
Di Renjie smiled and said: "This is difficult, it can be called even more difficult. But as a so-called vested interest, you are willing to speak for slaves, so why should I be afraid? Do it!"
Di Renjie raised his glass and said boldly: "I will plan for you. If you are ruined, I will be notorious with you!"
Jia Pingan raises his glass.
Boom!
In the slight voice, beaming.
"Lang Jun, I have a guest asking to see you."
Jia Pingan got up and went out.
A black-faced man was waiting. When he saw Jia Pingan, he saluted in panic and said, "I deliberately overturned the carbon furnace that day...Mr. Jia, you said that once this matter is completed, you will let me go..."
Jia Pingan looked at him in disgust, "You have an affair with your brother's woman, you are shameless, get out, and from today on, don't let me see you again."
After the man left, Wang Er Er came over.
"Lang Jun, I have been watching Daodefang for the past few days, and I haven't found anyone suspicious. Chen Dong has also gone out more than ten times, and no one is watching him."
Jia Pingan nodded, and said calmly: "Chen Dong pretended to be an oil seller that day, and his acting skills are good."
The news gradually spread.
In the afternoon, a big man quietly came to Jia's house.
"I have met Duke Jia."
"Your family's slavery will be released later, and besides, you led people to fight the fire that day... very good."
The big man knelt down, tears streaming down his face, "Duke Jia spoke for our slaves, such a great kindness, humble slave... I am so grateful."
Jia Ping'an said calmly: "There are many things that you don't like, so let's take care of them."
The big man asked suddenly: "If we fail to put out the fire that day, those noble people may not be able to save their lives."
Jia Pingan looked at him, "There is another group of people waiting at the side, who are also slaves."
The big man was shocked.
