Jiang Nv is indescribable

Chapter 419 The Method of Breaking the Game
Inside the Xiao residence, Xiao Hu was furious.

"Nizi! If I don't cause trouble for me for a day, he won't be flattered!"

Puyang Juan and Hong Xiang who were present did not make a sound, because they both knew that this disaster was no small matter.

Years ago, before Xiao Yuandu went to Jiangzhou, in the name of the state government, he issued orders to all counties and counties to abolish marriage robbery.

At that time, Xiao Hu was on a tour of various ministries and was not in Jiyuan, so Wu Biejia acted as governor.Wu Biejia is a knowledgeable person. Although he is famous, he seldom intervenes in state affairs. The actual person in charge is still Hong Xiang in Zhizhong.

Xiao Yuandu followed Hong Xiang to watch the government and was close to the water tower, so he used the seal when Hong Xiang was unprepared.When the order was issued, the officers and soldiers were specifically instructed to avoid the place where Xiao Hu was patrolling first...

Don't mention how surprised the prefects of the counties were when they received this order, but the governor's seal was stamped on it, how could it be fake?
Due to Xiao Hu's extreme authority, no one dared to speak up, and he could only endure the lawsuit.

I also knew in my heart what kind of uproar this order would cause, it was already the end of the year, since it was stated that it started from the seventh year of Fengxiang, so I might as well do it after the next year, and let the first day of life be safe.

There will be Shangyuan after the first day, and once the Shangyuan is over, it seems that there is no way to delay it any longer, so we have to post an announcement in the form of a notice to inform the counties.

It's not just an uproar, it's a huge wave.

Those ordinary people who don't even dare to fart when they see officials on weekdays, all of them seem to have borrowed their courage from the sky!Not only tore up the notice, but also went to the county government and county government in groups to seek justice.

If there are ten or one hundred, they will go to prison directly.However, there are too many people, let alone blame everyone, even if he blames, he can't blame it!

The prefects of all the counties and the county magistrates below were all overwhelmed by this incident. They tried to hide it, but they couldn't hide it, and finally stabbed it in the state.

In fact, even if it doesn't come up from below, the surrounding villages of Jiyuan have already become noisy, and the same is true in the city.

The lives of the common people are worthless, and they are indeed afraid of officials and death, but when they are desperate, they dare to go all out and make a scene.

What counts as cornered?At least in their view, there is no way out if there is no food to feed the hunger and no wife to warm the house.

In the past, the flames of war were always in jeopardy, so it didn't matter if there was a wife or not.But how many years has it been in peace, and you are still not allowed to rob women?Then what's the taste of being alive!
Someone wants to stab their sky, what are you afraid of? !

In this way, it would be a mess.

Moreover, the news leaked out somewhere, rumors spread everywhere that this matter was pushed forward by Xiao Yuandu alone, this time it was even more like adding fuel to the fire.

Hong Xiang cupped his hands and said: "This matter is all due to the negligence of the lower officials, who did not stop the fifth son, please forgive me."

Xiao Hu was annoyed, and glanced at him when he heard the words, and didn't say whether he would be punished or not, he just asked him: "This order is now abolished, do you think it is feasible?"

Hong Xiang shook his head: "The governor's office was ordered to be issued, and the governor's seal was affixed. If there is no announcement, there is still room for withdrawal. Now that the order has been issued, if it is abolished overnight, wouldn't it be a joke? It will damage the majesty of the lord. It is also not conducive to the implementation of various government orders in the future."

"This is not honest. If it is a bad government order, it can't be abolished? Do you want to push it through?" Xiao Hu sneered, and said straight away, "You agree with this matter."

He Hong Xiang is full of eyes all over his body, no matter how powerful Lao Wuzong is, without him turning a blind eye, it would be difficult to get things done.

Xiao Hu was furious: "I entrusted my son to you, not to be used as a gun!"

Hong Xiang calmly said, "My lord, let me tell you that the lower officials definitely believe that the robbery of the marriage is inappropriate, but what the five young masters did was not ordered by the lower officials, let alone instigated by the lower officials. After the lower officials found out, it was too late to stop..."

"So you just want to have a smooth ride?"

Hong Xiang didn't argue anymore.

Xiao Hu raised his eyebrows, opened his eyes angrily, and panted heavily.

Pu Yangjuan on the left smiled and said: "My lord, calm down, the matter has already happened, and we should think of a solution. Since Hong Zhizhong agrees with the fifth son's actions, there must be a reason, and he must have thought of a way to break the situation. Yes. Neither?"

Xiao Hu snorted heavily, staring at Hong Xiang: "I want to hear your reason."

"My lord, do you know what the southerners call us? Beilan, captives. After driving away the Beiliang people, we have become what they call barbarians.

"One of the most criticized is the custom of robbing marriages. As long as it exists, we will be barbarians, not accepted by the southerners, and even regarded as alien and evil by them.

"Beiliang doesn't know how to love the people, but only knows how to plunder. Even in the land they occupy, they never regard the people in the occupied land as their own people, but livestock that can be looted, enslaved, and tortured at will. Therefore they To condone the existence of robbed marriages, even if it leads to rampant fighting and bloody cases, is irrelevant, and it is even in line with their wishes.

"If you don't know how to love the people, you will lose the hearts of the people. It is also doomed that their rule will not last long. If the lord only wants to guard the shepherd's side and settle in a corner, you don't care about the opinions of other people. It doesn't matter if the marriage is abolished or not. But if so...some things , if the name is not correct, the words will be difficult."

Hong Xiang finished clicking, and submitted another booklet.

"After the Xuanhe Rebellion, the population of the Northland dropped by more than half. They either died in the war or went into exile in the Southland. Since the ninth year of Yongxi's reign when the Northlanders were expelled, they have been under the governance of Lord Xiaoyi and Shishi for more than ten years. , although Binzhou has regained its vigor and people's lives are prosperous and peaceful, but the registered population has not increased much. The reasons for this are not only the war, exile, and being taken as farm slaves by the wealthy families, but also the robbery of marriages.

"There are countless young and strong men who die every year from robbing marriages. If they accumulate feuds and cause gangs to fight and kill, the casualties will be even more serious. In addition to young and strong men, there are also women of the right age. Women who are robbed of marriages cannot bear the humiliation. There are many suicides.

"In troubled times, no one can do anything about it, but in peaceful times, especially knowing that robbery marriages do not exist everywhere, naturally some people don't want to bear it anymore. In recent years, more and more young women would rather sell their lives Hanshui is a slave and a handmaiden... The population is lost, the number of newborns is reduced, and if things go on like this, there will only be old and weak women and children left, and they will not be picked up."

Xiao Hu flipped through the book page by page, his anger gradually dissipated, and his face gradually became solemn.

After a cup of tea, he closed the booklet: "Why didn't you tell me earlier."

"This is a big matter, I want to wait for a suitable time—"

"Do you think this is the right time?"

"..." The timing could only be said to be good or bad, but whoever thought it would encounter the chaos of the Longevity Sect.

"Besides the timing, there is another thing." Xiao Hu's face became more and more serious, "The fifth wife was also snatched, you must have forgotten."

His body is not straight, and even his figure following me as an old man is crooked. In this situation, to abolish robbery and marriage, wouldn't he stick his face out and let someone beat him?

Hong Xiang said: "Because the fifth son is also the same, the so-called risks hide opportunities, and the way to break the situation is also in the fifth son."

Xiao Hu's expression changed.
