Zhuge was reborn, killed the old thief Sima

Chapter 448 Liu Bei’s urgency (first update)
"Lord, since we are currently helpless against the barbarian people, we might as well deal with the matter at hand first."

As soon as he returned to the mansion, Fazheng said something again that made Liu Bei start to sweat on his forehead.

"Did Xiaozhi mean money and food?" Looking at Fazheng who spoke again, the corners of Liu Bei's mouth couldn't help but tremble slightly, "What do you think at this time?"

At this time, Liu Bei was quite helpless when he said this. He now has a large territory, and he needs cavalry with cavalry, granaries with grain and grass, and navy with navy.

But the problem is that the whole area was destroyed after that old guy Cheng Zhongde dug it. It can be said that he has everything he wants now, but no money and no food.

Liu Bei, who has been on the battlefield all his life, understands one thing best. If you don't have money and food these days, then the person you should be most careful about is the people around you.

Because your head can be taken away by them and exchanged for money and food.
"The wealth of Yizhou is not in the people, but in the wealthy families!" As a person Liu Bei had been thinking about since he first entered Jingzhou, Dong He never spoke in roundabout ways.

"The aristocratic families in Yizhou have long heard about how wealthy Chengdu is. At that time, fighting against riches and extravagance became a common practice, which made the people of Yizhou hate them to the bone.

Even Ji Yu can’t stand it anymore.”

"It is exactly what my lord said, and it is not just a wealthy family in Chengdu. Almost every household in the huge Yizhou is extremely extravagant.

The people of Yizhou were tired and the wealthy families were extravagant, so the people of Yizhou had always been unstable. In addition, for many years, Liu Yan and his son had always governed Yizhou with lax laws.

There are many illegal things in Yizhou, but the lives of the people can be considered miserable.

Although both Xiaguan and Liu Chong had some success in governing Chengdu, in the end they could only curb its extravagant style for a while.

Not only can it not cure the root cause, it cannot even cure the symptoms.

And in the end, Liu Chong was sent to Zanggao, and Xiaguan was sent to Yizhou County, both of which were barbaric and remote places, and Chengdu's extravagance revived.

This incident is enough to prove that their family is wealthy, and it can also show that their influence is intertwined and affects the whole body, so Liu Jiyu has to be cautious.

Although the Chengdu aristocratic families have been brutally suppressed in the past two years by Xiaozhi and Yonghe, there are so many wealthy families in Yizhou.

If you want to make Yizhou rich, you should take out your family's wealth! "

Dong He's words were quite good, but after listening for a long time, Liu Bei honestly felt that he had not heard a single useful word.

"I understand what Youzai said!" Liu Bei nodded towards Dong He, "But how can we get the money out of their hands?"

"." Dong He had a rare hesitation at this time, and then couldn't help but look up at Liu Bei in front of him, and then spoke with some embarrassment.

"Please forgive me, my lord. I heard what Pan Jun did in Jingzhou before, and I thought he was a person who hates evil as much as he hates it.

Therefore, we originally wanted to discuss the matter with Pan Chengming about our lord's stay in Hanzhong to see if there was any way to make them obediently spit out the property they had embezzled over the years.

But who knew that Pan Jun was so murderous. After knowing what this Yizhou wealthy family had done, he actually wanted to slaughter all the wealthy families in Yizhou.

The so-called removing the bad and retaining the good, we feel that if we let him do this, I am afraid that Yizhou will be completely in chaos."

"." At this moment, Liu Bei finally knew that he had gone out. So what was the problem? According to Pan Jun's temperament, this was something he could do.

"This is nonsense!" Although Liu Bei didn't know whether this method was good or not, he still wanted to curse Pan Jun directly.

"Now we only have Yizhou intact. In the next few years, we will need Yizhou to provide food and grass for all other prefectures and counties. If we want to cause chaos in Yizhou, then we will starve to death next year." Tens of thousands of people are hundreds of thousands of people?

It's just nonsense! "

After an angry rebuke, Liu Bei couldn't help coughing again. This short period of tossing really made his body feel a little overwhelmed.

Perhaps it was because he survived the situation of being attacked from both sides and being surrounded from all sides.

Or maybe he finally accomplished one of his goals.

In short, after capturing Chengdu, pacifying Yizhou, and expelling Cao Mengde's army, Liu Bei's health began to decline significantly.

In just half a year, both my body and energy feel completely different from those in Jingzhou.

"Lord."

"It's okay!" Liu Bei raised his hand to stop Fazheng and others from approaching, "It's just that I've been a little too tired recently. After all, I am over fifty years old after all.

The bones in this body are indeed not as good as before. "

After a while of coughing, Liu Bei also took a long breath and relieved the depression in his heart. Feeling the fatigue coming from his body, he couldn't help but reveal a wry smile on his face.

During this period, he also took Fazheng and others to inspect the counties in Yizhou, and took the opportunity to capture many people who were doing evil or not wanting to make progress.

However, after only touring half of Yizhou, my body began to be unable to bear it any longer, and I had to return to Chengdu in advance.

Let’s end this inspection trip hastily.
At this time, seeing the obvious tiredness on Liu Bei's face, Fazheng and the others all looked at each other for a while and could only bow slowly towards Liu Bei, letting Liu Bei rest first.

Looking at these few close ministers, Liu Bei could only nod his head.

"Shi Yuan and Yuan Zhi are not here during this period. Yizhou is in ruins and needs more attention from you.

Let’s stay here for today and come early tomorrow to discuss matters.”

"No!" Dong and the other three bowed immediately, and then slowly withdrew.

Dong He and Liu Chong didn't say much after they left. Instead, they bowed to each other and then went to their own offices.

Now one of them is the governor of Shu County and the other is the order of Chengdu. They have to deal with a lot of things every day.

After leaving Liu Bei's place, they don't want to have any leisure.

Compared with Dong He and Liu Chong, Fazheng's life was much more comfortable. After leaving Liu Bei, Meng Da, who was in charge of garrisoning in Chengdu, had already prepared wine and meat.

Meng Da and other Dongzhou scholars sat waiting for Fazheng to go to the banquet.

Not only to maintain their previous relationship, but also to find out Liu Bei's current views and arrangements for them...
After all, Liu Bei had captured Chengdu for a long time, but there was no movement at all in terms of rewards from everyone.

This has to make people feel a little worried.
