When he mentioned this matter, an unknown will-o'-the-wisp arose in his heart.

Especially when the King of Chu often teased him about this matter, it made him feel as if he was inferior to the King of Chu.

No, with this kind of thinking, he also hated Huo Junyao.

He thought that he would have to find an opportunity to deal with Huo Junyao in the future, but when the news came out today, he felt a little frightened.

This is already the second Duke, and this girl seems a bit difficult to deal with.

"I will stay away from her from now on."

Now he still has two strong enemies eyeing him, so there is really no need to provoke another strong enemy for himself.

"Your Majesty is wise, this method is really good."

"The problem that has troubled me for so long has finally been solved."

After Fang Qiao listened to some of Emperor Zhaowu's plans for promoting the idea of ​​dividing households into households, he exclaimed in his heart that it was very good, and could even be said to be a bit subtle.

First, we borrowed corn, measured the land, and secretly investigated illegal activities in various places to prepare for subsequent reforms.

"It's a good idea, but I'm afraid it might be counterproductive?"

Shen Huan frowned and spoke.

"I said Zhao Guogong, what do you mean by this? I don't think there is anything wrong with this. On the contrary, I think it is very good."

"Who doesn't know about the bad things those gentry and gentry did? They should have been dealt with a long time ago. If they accept the reform honestly this time, it will be fine. If they don't accept it, just take this opportunity to deal with them all and return the world to the world. The common people are one and the same."

As soon as Ning Guogong finished speaking, Shen Huan glared at him.

"Reckless man, what do you know? How can those gentry and gentry be so easy to deal with?"

"Why is it so hard to clean up?"

Duke Ning Guo did not give in to this at all. Instead, he glared at Shen Huan fiercely and finally continued, "Oh, by the way, I forgot that you, Shen Huan, are also one of the landlords and gentry."

"What's the matter? Are you worried that this reform will affect your family? Or are you worried that it will shake your position as the head of the family in Guanzhong?"

"How dare you slander me like this?"

Shen Huan was furious.

Can you say this nonsense? It will cost people's lives.

Huo Jingzhi, Meng Xuancheng and Fang Qiao who were standing beside them did not try to persuade them when they saw them acting like this.

After all, although Ning Guogong's words contained a bit of nonsense, they also pointed out a fact.

There are indeed some problems with Shen Huan's background. It is true that the head of the Guanzhong clan exists, and there are many small nobles and gentry below him.

He would have such an attitude, and no one could tell whether there was any selfishness in it.

However, this is not something they should consider, and the emperor let Shen Huan get involved, which is not a sign of trust in Shen Huan.

"Okay, I believe him. We have come all the way from troubled times. We all know who each other is. Mr. Ning Guo should not talk nonsense."

Hearing this, Ning Guogong quickly raised his hands and said, "I know I was wrong."

However, although he said he acknowledged his mistake, he did not express anything to Shen Huan.

There was no way, he didn't have a good impression of Shen Huan in his heart.

"Shen Aiqing's worries are not unreasonable, but as Jingzhi said before, we don't need to complicate some things. This national policy will be of great benefit to our Yu Dynasty."

"We have to do it even if there are difficulties. If we know that we can bring Yu Chao to a higher level, but we are afraid to move forward because of fear, then who are we?"

"We have already made it through troubled times, do we have to shrink from this little difficulty?"

I wonder if it was because of what Ning Guogong said just now. As Emperor Zhaowu finished speaking, Shen Huan also raised his hand and expressed his willingness to overcome obstacles for the emperor.

Ning Guogong curled his lips when he heard this. This move made Shen Huan look at him angrily. "I have no objection. I'm not good at these things that require thinking. But if the emperor needs me to kill someone, or raid someone's home, I will definitely take the lead, no matter who he is."

When he said the last sentence, his eyes glanced at Shen Huan, which made Shen Huan even more angry.

Damn it, what does this mean?

"It is good for the country and good for the people. I should only do my best."

Meng Xuancheng also raised his hand and spoke.

The emperor's attitude has been revealed. If he refuses at this time, who knows if Ning Guogong will also retaliate.

Huo Jingzhi and Fang Qiao also agreed.

However, Huo Jingzhi was just playing tricks. He could make suggestions, but it was not his turn to do things. After all, he was just the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and these matters were not his responsibility.

The group of people left the imperial study. Shen Huan glared at Ning Guogong and walked away.

Seeing him walking away, Ning Guogong bumped Huo Jingzhi with his elbow; "I think there is something wrong with this guy, otherwise why would he keep pouring cold water on him? And after such a long period of time, he has no constructive opinions. None of it was brought up.”

"You."

Regarding Ning Guogong, Huo Jingzhi was also quite helpless.

Shen Huan may not have any problems. After all, he is the head of the Guanzhong clan. This reform has indeed harmed the interests of the gentry. In his position, it is reasonable to have some different attitudes.

But you know it, so don’t say it.

But Ning Guogong has always been like this, going straight and forward, it doesn't matter.

"My dear, I can't handle this on my own, so you have to help me."

Fang Qiao also said with a smile.

"My dear, you're welcome. How about going to my office?"

"Very good."

After saying that, the two of them looked at Ning Guogong and Meng Xuancheng.

"Don't look at me for this kind of brainstorming thing. I have to go to the military camp, so I'll leave first."

Ning Guogong slipped away directly.

"I also have some official duties, so I can't be of much help at the moment."

After Meng Xuancheng finished speaking, he handed over and left.

Seeing the two of them leaving, it didn't matter to Ning Guogong and the others, but to Meng Xuancheng, both of them shook their heads.

"It seems it's all about fear of getting into trouble."

"It makes sense."

Huo Jingzhi smiled faintly, and then the two relatives went to the Ministry of Industry.

"Lao Huo, you said that the emperor asked Duke Zhao to get involved. What do you mean?"

"What else could it mean? Of course I trust Duke Zhao."

After all, he was his brother-in-law, so there was nothing wrong with Huo Jingzhi's words.

"You guys, are you still telling me this?"

"You already know that, so why ask?"

Huo Jingzhi glanced at Fang Qiao lightly. At this moment, Fang Qiao was also a little helpless.

After a while, he sighed; "Every time there is a reform, it will be bloody. I don't know how many people will be unlucky this time. Lao Huo, if something unexpected happens to me in the future, I hope you will watch over us." For the sake of my in-laws, please take care of the Fang family."

Hearing this, Huo Jingzhi also became solemn and said seriously, "Don't worry, we will advance and retreat together. As the emperor said, we have all gone through troubled times together, so what does this little danger count?"
