Chapter 396 Magna Carta ([-])
Royal Manor
homeowner's study
A special guest came here. His surname was Huan and his name was Fan. He was originally Zhen Xiang's counselor, that is, the wise man who persuaded Zhen Xiang's daughter to mobilize the Imperial Guard in advance.

After the Zhen family was defeated, Huan Fan fled to Liaodong for refuge. There was no other reason to flee to Liaodong. Liaodong simply provided refuge for all rich people, and they took refuge if they gave money.

"The reason why the way of the saint is difficult to implement is because there are many opponents, as long as all the opponents are killed." Huan Fan suggested.

Before Zhen Xiang went to Gaoping Mausoleum, he also advised Zhen Xiang to kill all the nobles in Luoyang City to avoid accidents, but unfortunately Zhen Xiang refused to listen.

"The soldiers are not with me, why punish the evil?" Wang Ting said distressedly.

"In the past, if the overlord held a banquet at the Hongmen, if Xiang Bo hadn't blocked it, the Han would not have survived, and Emperor Guangwu had a glass of wine to release his military power, and it was the same." Huan Fan Fuxu smiled and said: "The ten permanent servants and Dong Zhuo hold the forbidden army in their hands. How arrogant are you? Just one assassin is enough."

"Junhou only needs to invite the ministers to a banquet, and then arrange dozens of knives and axes to control Jiuqing. At that time, he will coerce Jiuqing to command the country of Yan. Why not worry about the big event?"

Because the Marquis of Yan is an official vassal, people in the area ruled by the royal family often call themselves "My Kingdom of Yan".

"My husband is just like Emperor Hangao's Zhang Zifang." Wang Ting felt that this method of coercing the emperor at the Hongmen Banquet to command the princes was very feasible.

Although the head of the family has no military power, it is not a big problem to use his own money to secretly train dozens of swordsmen.

another month later

Wang Ting issued an edict of guilt, admitting that his reforms were too absurd. He wanted to entertain his brothers and sisters, apologize to them, and abolish all reform measures.

The vast majority of people chose to go to the banquet. After all, although the Patriarch's reforms were a bit absurd, he was one of his own people, so he wouldn't hurt himself.

Among the children of the family, Shang Shu Ling Wang Ba paid special attention to it.

"I'm afraid there is something strange about this matter." Wang Ba felt that the head of the family admitted his mistakes too frankly. According to the normal situation, shouldn't it be that he stubbornly implemented reforms, and then found out that the implementation could not be carried out, and finally lost his temper?
"Then what do you mean?" Wang Xue wondered from the side.

There are different parties fighting within a country, and there are also different interest factions fighting within a family.

If not, it can only mean that the scale is too small. Once the scale of any force becomes large, various internal struggles will inevitably arise.

Both sisters Wang Shuang and Wang Xue are firmly on Wang Ba's side, helping Wang Ba seize the position of Marquis of Yan, and at the same time hope to use Wang Ba's power to ascend to the position of family secretary in the future.

"Let's just say that we occasionally feel cold and cannot attend the banquet." Wang Ba hesitated, what if he was thinking too much, so he added: "Wait and see what happens, and use the same to respond to all changes."

After finishing speaking, he stuffed a [Golden Elixir Powder] into a slender bamboo tube and ignited it.

ZZZZ——

Sparks splashed from the opening of the bamboo tube, releasing a large amount of smoke.

This kind of golden pill was unintentionally refined by Zhang Bao as early as the end of Han Dynasty, but Zhang Bao didn't know the specific formula at that time, so he also refined it blindly.

After more than 70 years of research by the Wang family, after spending countless gold, manpower, material and financial resources, they finally realized that this kind of novelty does not need gold.

At first, I saw that Zhang Bao used gold to refine this [Golden Elixir], so the Wang family also used a lot of gold in the refining. At first, they thought it was too little gold, so they kept increasing the gold materials, but it turned out that they could not make it [Golden Elixir] explodes and burns.

It took more than 70 years just to understand that gold is not a raw material.

The [Golden Elixir] that does not use gold was only produced a year ago. This kind of golden elixir has a lot of impurities and cannot explode at all, but can only burn, so some Wang family children stuffed it into a bamboo tube as a toy.

Stuff the [Golden Elixir Powder] into a bamboo tube, then light it up, watch the sparks splash and smoke come out, that's all I can do now, it has almost no power, so I just hold it in my hand and play with it.

When Wang Ba was refusing to attend the banquet of the Patriarch.

that night
"Wang Ting, are you crazy?"

"Why did the Patriarch rebel?"

In the middle of the banquet, the knife and axe suddenly broke out and controlled Jiuqing.

Among the Nine Ministers, even the two scholars of the Confucian school never thought of using force to implement reforms, they just kept calling for them verbally. They were Confucian scholars and family officials at the same time.

So when the two of them saw this situation, they were the first to stand up and reprimand Wang Ting angrily.

When Wang Ting proposed to deepen the reform of Confucianism, the two of them fully supported it, but when Wang Ting wanted to use force to enforce it, even the two officials from the same camp as him were dissatisfied with it.

"Hmph! Today you have to obey, and you have to obey if you don't. The world is up to me!" After Wang Ting put the nine family secretaries under house arrest through the Hongmen Banquet, he issued an order in the names of the nine family secretaries, requiring all soldiers and The vigilantes immediately arrested those who resisted the reforms.

However, even the family secretary has no right to mobilize the army, so his order was directly ignored.

At the same time, more and more children from families who were not in the manor began to question why Jiuqing had been in the manor for several days.

Jiuqing in the manor is under house arrest, and the family members outside the manor don't understand what's going on. They need a family secretary or head of the family to hold the family council, and the army needs the authorization of the parliament to mobilize, but both the family secretary and the head of the family are in the manor Can't come out.

When a group of children from overseas families began to wonder what happened in Liaodong, Wang Ting had already secretly contacted the foreigners.

Since it is impossible to mobilize the army of the family, it can only unite with the army of foreign races.

after one day
Taohuagang

"Nine family officials were sick and unable to go out at the same time. This...is too weird." Wang Ba felt that the matter was too strange.

At this time, Wang Xue hurried in and said in a panic: "The Patriarch and the nine family officials issued a joint order to immediately dissolve the council, and all power belongs to the Patriarch."

wow——

Wang Ba was stunned for a moment, then thought of the most unlikely possibility, his face tightened, his hands trembled, and he let out a long breath: "Leave Liaodong quickly!"

"Why?" Wang Shuang asked.

"I'm afraid the nine family ministers are not sick, but are under house arrest by the patriarch." Wang Ba analyzed: "Now everyone is scattered in various overseas regions, the parliament cannot be held normally, and we can't mobilize the army. We can only stay away from Liaodong, gentleman. Don't stand under a dangerous wall, protect yourself first, and then think about others."

Afterwards, Wang Ba took Wang Shuang and Wang Xue to leave Taohuagang, and went to Chang'e City, where the guild rebellion had just been quelled.

However, he did not notify the other family members in Taohuagang, because even at this moment, he only guessed that the family secretary was under house arrest by the Patriarch.

In case the nine family members were really sick at the same time and couldn't go out, wouldn't it be tantamount to betraying the family to tell the children of other families to run away?
another month later

The children of the family in Taohuagang, which is the closest to the manor, also sensed that something was wrong. They openly resisted the reform and expelled the new prefect sent by the patriarch to Taohuagang.

Faced with Taohuagang, the nearest city, blatantly resisting the orders issued by the manor, and even expelling the prefect sent by the manor, Wang Ting decided to take the last resort.
