Chapter 42: Attitudes of the Bingzhou Gentry
As Mi Zhu came to Bingbei, other families also sent people to transport supplies here.

The Wuji Zhen family, the Chenliu Wei family, the Hedong Wei family, and the Yizhou Wu family all also sent servants to deliver supplies to Bingbei.

In addition, the clan members headed by Emperor Liu Hong also sent supplies, including Liu Yan, the governor of Nanyang.

The rest are the gentry, from the Hongnong Yang family, the Runan Yuan family, the Fufeng Ma family, and the Fanyang Lu family in the court, to the local Chenliu Cao family, the Xiahou family, the Qinghe Cui family, the Langya Wang family, and the Lu Guo Kong family. Shi et al.

For the sake of face, the nobles donated more or less materials.

Liu Han followed the original plan and erected two rows of stone tablets in front of the gate of the Yin Pavilion Prefecture. The left column was to commend the martyrs of the country. It listed the donor's family, name and donated materials.

The other column is the "Honor List". Thank you all for your great support!

What Liu Han didn't expect was that there were actually nobles who were just trying to make up for their crimes!

This is really just when you want to doze off, someone will send you a pillow.

The Yuan family in Chenjun had ill intentions towards him. They put moldy grain in the donated materials. Some of the materials were short of a few pounds. Liu Han understood, but Liu Han didn't get used to it. He was on the list!
There are also the Bingzhou gentry, such as the Jinyang Wang family, the Qixian Wang family, the Yangqu Guo family, and the Qixian Duxiang Renyili Wen family. These gentry are obviously resentful, and the donated materials reflect one word: fool.

"Zhicai, look, the Bingzhou gentry have a lot of opinions on us."

"My lord, this matter was expected. My lord's arrival in Bingzhou means that the balance here is broken, and the northern part of Bingzhou is blocked. These nobles who secretly have business dealings with foreign races will naturally be affected.

Not only that, "the king and the scholar-bureaucrats rule the world together" and "the imperial power does not extend to the county" have long been deeply rooted in the bones of the gentry. Therefore, in the eyes of the gentry, the lord is just a special Han clan who has not grown up. If he wants to gain a foothold in Bingzhou, he must Corporal Li Xian, we must ask them to help.

However, in the three months since the lord came to Bingzhou, he has never interacted with these nobles, and has not even given them any benefits. How can they not feel resentful in their hearts?

This collaboration is more of a reminder, or a warning, to the Lord.

After all, the law does not punish everyone. If the Lord makes this matter a big deal, Bingzhou will be in chaos, which is what His Majesty does not want to see. "

Xi Zhi just finished speaking his opinion, and then sat aside and thought quietly. This matter was indeed difficult to deal with. He originally wanted to scare the monkeys, but now he failed to handle it, and the situation became uncontrollable, and the entire Bingzhou was in chaos.

The imperial court now cannot do without the local gentry!
Liu Han was also thinking about it. He had heard of all the noble families on the list.

Some people may not be familiar with the Qixian Wang family and the Jinyang Wang family, but if we use another word, people in later generations will definitely be familiar with it - the Taiyuan Wang family!
The ancestor Wang Jian of the Qin Dynasty had five surnames, Qiwang, in the early Tang Dynasty. The Taiyuan Wang family once became the leader of the five surnames and Qiwang. From the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, there were many prime ministers and queens, and they were famous medieval families!

The current head of the Wang family in Qixian County is Wang Yun, the famous beauty trick Wang Situ. His nephew Wang Ling will later become the Taiwei of Cao Wei. However, this will be a matter for the future. The current Wang family in Qixian County is only a prominent family in Taiyuan County.

(Wang Yun (137-192), courtesy name Zishi; Wang Ling (172-251), courtesy name Yanyun)
As for the other Jinyang Wang family, it will become more prominent in the future. The current head of the family is named Wang Rou, who is the Zhonglang general who protects the Huns. The former Yanmen prefect is the current prefect of the county Wang Ze. His son Wang Chang will also be Cao Wei Sikong in the future, and his grandson Wang Hun and his great-nephew Wang Jun were both Situ in the Western Jin Dynasty. They were very prominent for a while, not to mention the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Empress Wang, the wife of Li Zhi, Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, was from the Wang family in Taiyuan.

(Wang Rou, also known as Shuyou; Wang Ze, known as Jidao; Wang Chang, known as Wenshu; Wang Hun (223-297), known as Xuanchong; Wang Jun (252-314), known as Pengzu)

Similarly, the Guo family in Yangqu is also a famous family in medieval times. During the Shun Emperor's period (115-144), Guo Zun, the governor of Yanzhou and the official Shouguanglu; the current head of the Guo family in Yangqu is Guo Quan, the great minister, and his son Guo Mian, if It's not that Liu Han suddenly airborne, he is the current governor of Yanmen, not Tian Feng; Guo Mian's son is Guo Huai, the famous general of Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms period, but Guo Huai was probably just born at this time.

The Wen family and the Wang family in Qixian County are both famous families in Taiyuan County. The current prefect of Zhuo County, Wen Shu, is the head of the Wen family. His grandson is Wen Hui, the governor of Liangzhou in Cao Wei. The most famous one is the three outstanding figures of the Wen family in the early Tang Dynasty: Wen Daya (Ministry of Rites) There are three brothers: Shangshu), Wen Yanbo (Prime Minister), and Wen Dayou (Secretary Minister of Zhongshu, Duke of Qinghe County).The three heroes of the Wen family are all talented ministers. "interesting."

Liu Han encountered this situation for the first time. There were only three ways to deal with the nobles: behead them as guests, or accept them as dogs.

A treat, Liu Han couldn't do it for these guys in Bingzhou who were high-minded but low-handed.

Perhaps Bingzhou has been in chaos for so long that they have the idea that they are the emperor of the country and can do whatever they want. Liu Han doesn't want to spoil them.

Beheading and killing must be carried out, but not all of them. If they all are killed, Bingzhou will be in chaos.

If you accept a dog like this, a nobleman like him will bite you back. Liu Han doesn't want to leave any hidden dangers.

Therefore, what Liu Han had to do was to stamp into the mud the confidence and pride that had arisen inexplicably in their hearts!
After thinking over and over again, Liu Han made a decision in his mind.

"You have to pick the weak ones. The plan to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys cannot be changed. Zhicai, the plan remains unchanged. Put these people's names on the list."

The strategic plan is to combat the influence of the gentry in the people. The gentry cannot always control public opinion. From the commanding heights of righteousness, if this matter does not happen, the Bingzhou gentry will most likely think that they dare not fall out with them, and may even make more decisions. Things that go too far come.

Therefore, not only can the plan not be changed, but they must be struck with thunderous force.

"There is Dong Zhao over there in Yunzhong. There won't be any problems for the time being. We will bring Huang Zhong back and order Zhang He to lead a thousand troops, plus 2000 people from the Yin Hall. In five days, he will directly attack Yangqu!"

Liu Han originally planned to go to Jinyang, but when he thought that Jinyang was not only the county government of Taiyuan County, but also the state government. Once the army went to Jinyang, it would mean breaking up with all the nobles in Bingzhou.

Therefore, Liu Han settled for the next best thing and chose Yangqu.

"Lord, is this too sudden?"

Xi Zhicai was worried that the situation was developing in an uncontrollable direction.

"Don't worry Zhicai, we are responsible for this incident. Of the nine counties in Bingzhou, five of them are barren. The four southern counties of Taiyuan, Shangdang, Xihe, and Shangjun are the prosperous places in Bingzhou, especially Shangdang and Taiyuan. This time we go south, Just to seek justice, no one can say anything."

Xi Zhicai was convinced that he was really afraid that his lord would do something out of control. If he just wanted justice, he could only blame Yangqu's chicken for being too close to Yanmen.

"Then, Zhong will do things well in the underworld and occupy the great righteousness."

"Yes, the most important thing for you and Mr. Tian now is to count the supplies, measure the land, resettle the refugees, and discover talents."

"Here."
