Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 1274
In the hall, although Du Yan's voice was old, it revealed a hale and hearty voice. What he was talking about was the difference between the ancient and modern punishments in Guanzhong. Violent, the punishment is not lenient.

Although General Shen has been flaunting today's banquet in Guanlong Shiliu before, all the participants can speak freely, in order to collect the voices of the people from the countryside and use it to assist Xingtai in the governance of Guanzhong.

But everyone also knows that this is just talk on the stage. If you really believe it to be true and ignore it, it is definitely a mindless behavior.Therefore, after hearing Du Yan directly attacking the ruling policy of Xingtai in Guanzhong, the hall was silent for a while, everyone's hands were sweating, and their mood was extremely complicated. It was hard to tell what it was like for Du Yan's behavior .

But gradually, they found that General Shen and Li Hong and other three auxiliary officials in the hall didn't have any special expressions. General Shen just listened seriously.However, Jing Zhaoyin and Li Hong, who were attacking faintly by these remarks, lowered their heads and seemed to be browsing something, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

Seeing this scene, everyone's emotions were relieved a little bit. Regardless of whether General Shen and others put on a gesture to show generosity, at least they should not have any extreme reactions right now.

Du Yan used the past to satirize the present and talked eloquently. Shi Liu, who was partly in a calm mood, couldn't help admiring him.This is a problem that deeply troubles Sanfu village households, especially the powerful rightists, but even if they have any opinions, under the oppression of this kind of power, they dare not express them in such a public place. in the mouth.

As the patriarch of the Jingzhao Du family, Du Yan didn't have to express any opinions on this issue.Not to mention that the Du family has the natural protection of Du He's relationship, even if there is no such relationship, although the Du family's old reputation still exists, but the village capital is prematurely declining, it will never be the first in Jingzhao County. object of suppression.

Therefore, in the eyes of some people, Du Yan's move is tantamount to taking the poverty of the country as his own responsibility, and he is anxious for justice. No matter how Xingtai responds to this, they must keep this favor in their hearts.

But there are also some people who feel more tense, especially Wei Kai and Wei Chen who are in Jingzhao Wei's palace at the moment, they are even more on pins and needles, and their hearts are even more turbulent.

The reason why Wei Chen was extremely shocked was because Du Yan came to realize a problem, that is, the two families are from the same hometown of Du Ling, and there is no lack of overlap in the relationship between each other. Du Yan, as the patriarch of the Jingzhao Du family staying behind in the village, it is impossible to hide it from him.

Although the two families are from the same hometown, the relationship is really not good.The so-called one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, Du's advanced first, and Webster's late, there will inevitably be conflicts between each other, especially in the early years of Guanzhong turmoil, whoever can occupy more village capital and shade households will be able to more. What chance of survival, the family feud can be described as far-reaching.

Now Xingtai Xingzhi Guanzhong, the situation of the Du family is a thousand times better than that of the Wei family, and the relationship with Xingtai is also very harmonious.Wei Kai colluded with the countrymen in private, and wanted to use this opportunity to make trouble. Even if the Du family wanted to avoid being implicated, they should at least dissuade the folks who are related to the two families.

However, Wei Kai seems to be going too smoothly...

Wei Chen immediately thought of a possibility: this is a trap, a trap that will drive his family into a place of eternal doom!

Wei Kai is a mere prostitute, and if he wants to bring down such a dignified Chief Jingzhao like Li Hong, he can only obtain a chance by relying on the power of others.And the development of things is indeed the same. The Jingzhao Township who can participate in this grand meeting is already quite powerful. Wei Kai easily colluded with more than a dozen families, and it can almost be said that he has already recruited prominent families under Jingzhao's rule and around Chang'an.

The Du family is the gateway to get close to Xingtai, and these dozen or so families also have their close friends, but they don't feel the slightest resistance from their families during the process.And those people agreed so happily, maybe there is a reason why their family made efforts to facilitate it.

After realizing this, a picture appeared in Wei Chen's mind: If Wei Kai really stepped forward regardless of his care, he denounced Li Hong's cruel law enforcement, which would arouse public resentment.However, those colluding families went against the previous agreement, and instead criticized the Wei family for their ulterior motives and hidden conspiracy...

Thinking of this, Wei Chen was already dripping with sweat.Wei Kai's plot is a last stand for the weak and the poor, the chance of success is slim.

However, if those village clans who colluded together take this opportunity to isolate Webster and denounce him as a portal of local bandits, the chances of success are much greater. Since they can show their closeness to Xingtai, Webster, a giant in the countryside, will be rejected. After eradication, they can also share more living space.This way of killing two birds with one stone, the benefits are definitely far higher than following Wei Kai and taking risks together.

However, Du Yan's subsequent discussion made Wei Chen doubt his deduction.He really couldn't figure it out, since he could benefit from sitting quietly and watching the changes, what's the point of Du Yan's doing so?
Full of doubts, Wei Chen repeatedly looked at the reactions of the rest of the people in the hall, especially the rest of the Du clan who were also in the hall, as well as those families that Wei Kai had connected with before, all looked at Du Yan with surprise in their eyes. He was also surprised and uncertain about Du Yan's move.

Du Yan's discussion was very lengthy. Although the main purpose was to criticize the harshness of Taiwan's government, it did not involve specific people or events at the moment. Instead, he talked endlessly and told many stories.No matter what the other people in the hall felt, at least on the surface, they all seemed to be listening carefully.

Although Wei Chen was also listening to Du Yan's discussion, his mind was spinning fast, trying to sort out the deep meaning behind the change and what he should do.

Do you want to go along with Du Yan and act like the public is boiling with grievances?

This thought flashed through his mind, and was quickly dismissed by Wei Chen.He also noticed Wei Kai's suspicious and hesitant appearance. Du Yan talked eloquently, but in fact there was still room for his words, and it was not like Wei Kai's intent on targeting Li Hong for criticism.If you want to base your questioning on the basis of Du Yan's remarks, once Du Yan changes the subject, their sinister intentions can be highlighted.

Could this be Du Yan's intention to come forward?

Wei Chen shook his head secretly again. Once Du Yan stood up, he turned his original initiative into a passive one. Even the determined Wei Kai hesitated because of this. If he wanted to use this to dig a trap for Wei Shi, it would be very dangerous. Most likely wasted.

Wei Chen hadn't figured out the many twists and turns and advantages and disadvantages involved, but Du Yan's speech that lasted for half an hour finally came to an end.This inevitably made Wei Chen's heart tremble, he couldn't guess what would happen next, but when he saw Wei Kai in the seat in front of him becoming restless again, his heartstrings couldn't help but tense again.

Du Yan finally finished his speech, and everyone in the hall let out a long breath, shook their sleepy heads, and then hurriedly held their breath and concentrated their attention to observe the changes.

"Mr. Du is worthy of being an example of righteousness in his hometown. He can stand up and speak out ahead of the times, pour out his heartfelt words, and help Wang Ming spread governance."

General Shen in the hall also smiled twice, unfolded the folding fan in his hand, praised Du Yan's behavior of getting up to speak, but did not comment on the content of his speech, then he looked down and said: "This grand meeting is originally In order to also pick up the opinions of local voices and sages, you don't have to be restrained. If you have any thoughts, don't say anything at this time, let alone when."

After the general's words fell, there were some echoing chuckles in the hall, but in the following time, no one else was eager to get up.

Wei Chen saw that the general's expression was still calm, and he didn't express anything special because of Du Yan's discussion, as if the discussion had been expected...

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his heart, and then his heart beat wildly. He licked the dry corner of his mouth with his wet tongue, and stood up suddenly from the table without thinking carefully.

When Wei Chen got up, all the eyes in the hall immediately turned to him. Being so watched, especially the general in the hall also looked at him, which made Wei Chen even more nervous. blank.

He bit the bullet and walked out of his seat, took a few deep breaths during the short time he was walking forward, and only raised his hand and bowed deeply before he walked to the general's seat, and his tone was a little blunt: "Wei Chen, Du Ling's little man, pay respects to the general and all the envoys."

General Shen in the palace heard this, and his face revealed a look of interest: "In the old years of Jianxing, there was a Wei Pingbei in Guanzhong..."

"It's the first test."

Although Webster's hometown is not weak, it can only be called a newcomer, and it is less than Shizuo can boast.Jianxing was the reign title of Sima Ye, Emperor Min. After the disaster of Yongjia, the Guanzhong system was just lingering. It was against this background that Wei Chen's father entered the temple and was awarded the title of General Pingbei.Hearing that the general knew his father, Wei Chen was also slightly excited.

"It turned out to be Empress Zhongliang."

The general nodded after hearing the words, then raised his hand and pointed at Wei Chen, and said with a smile: "Mr. Du said something first, and Mr. Wei followed suit. Do you have any good words?"

Wei Chen took a small step back, saluted again, then nodded to Du Yan who hadn't retreated on the other side, and then said: "Du Gong is a benevolent and virtuous elder in the village, and the juniors are only backward, so they dare not strive for glory. Just thinking about Du Gong’s long-term theory, there is something in my heart, and I can’t express it. If the words are not expressive, or the meaning is superficial, I hope you will not be guilty.”

"Practicing the rules and regulations of Taiwan has never been used as a crime. Wei Jun can confide as much as he wants."

General Shen laughed again, looked left and right, and then landed on Wei Chen.

"Du Gong used the past to talk about the present, and there is something to be said, but the younger generation feels that it is still biased."

Wei Chen looked at Du Yan and said directly: "Qin laws are dense, like a thick net, and the people are cautious but can't keep it. Because of exhaustion, it became a dispute between Chu and Han. Because it is lenient and simple to comfort the tired people. This world is far behind the Qin and Han Dynasties. After Yongjia, all the Hus became disasters. There is a lack of enlightenment. There are many difficulties in this world, how can we ignore it and force the ancient rhyme?"

Wei Chen's voice rose from the hall, and before the rest of the crowd could react, there was sudden applause from above, and everyone followed the sound, and saw the general smiling and waving his hands: "I lost my composure for a while, Mr. Wei, please continue."
