supreme heaven

() In this way, the Qin family really can't mess around like these small families, secretly controlling cities and so on.With such a move, the people in the court will immediately find out the clues, and the fire cannot be covered with paper. After a little investigation, it may be a big hat of conspiracy.

You have already been given the territory of the peerless family of the Qin family, and you still want to infiltrate it secretly and steal it, isn't it enough?If this is not rebellion, what is it?

And these small families don't have so many scruples, at least they don't have so many eyes staring at them, instead they can expand wantonly and domineering.There are really big difficulties, and small benefits.

Qin Guyue frowned slightly and asked: "Since our Qin family's fiefdom is clearly written in the legal code, it is on the bank of Lushui in the southeast, from Changning to Luchuan, with [-] households. Will there be conflicts with these families? Do they dare to occupy the land written in the code?"

"They don't have the guts." Liu Wangcai replied cautiously: "After all, my Qin family has been passed down for more than ten generations. Although expansion is not encouraged, we will also buy some land from outside, or good fields and orchards obtained by tenant farmers. Although there are not many in each generation, the accumulation is still very considerable, and the fleshy bones that these families want to bite are our 'farms'."

Qin Guyue knew that the entrusted fields in the legal code were called "well fields", and each piece was divided and clearly divided according to the barrenness, so that the tenant farmers could cultivate them, and those that were later expanded and not registered by the government were called "well fields". Farming", the well field is like the official's salary, and the farming is like private money.Said it was my own, but the origin was not particularly righteous.However, "horses are not fat without autumn grass, and people are not rich without windfall", the same is true for the family, relying on the two-acre and three-point land, even a fief like the Qin family can't guarantee that it will not sit on the mountain, not to mention raising such a million-dollar family. The number of people is private soldiers, and it is also a large expense.Private soldiers, among the many families, only the Qin family can openly own them, which also represents His Majesty Taizu's trust in Lord Nobunaga. Even if other families have similar teams, they are shameless and can only be called House slaves are not only unpopular to say the least, many warriors are unwilling to enter and serve them. After all, this is like selling themselves as slaves.

This highlights the importance of these "field storage" to a family.

Now these small surrounding families headed by the Long family actually started the Qin family's idea of ​​"farming", which is no different from destroying the foundation of the Qin family.Of course, this move may have started a long time ago, but the old housekeeper Qin Bang has been fighting with these four great families, and he does not even rule out the behavior of colluding with the Qin family and harming the interests of the Qin family. will not know.

"If that's the case, then there's no need for appeasement." Thinking of this, Qin Guyue grabbed the tea bowl and took another sip of tea, but murderous intent had already passed through her eyes.If the Qin family is a big tree, these reptiles from outside are no longer eating the leaves, but the roots!Is it okay to destroy the foundation of the Qin family?

"Master..." Liu Wangcai stood in front of Qin Guyue and said, "But the villain feels that it is not acceptable to use soldiers directly. Although the domestic slaves raised by these families are far less powerful than our Qin family's private soldiers, but for the sake of the land However, it is really taboo to use swordsmen, and if it is spread to the court, it will even be considered as local riots... Although the young master has obtained the loyalty of private soldiers now, he can't move private soldiers at will. The last time was because of Xing Daorong My lord has the Imperial Emperor’s golden seal, so I was able to make an exception, and now these private soldiers can only be mobilized if they have a marching certificate signed by the head of the family, Ge Qin Zhantian..."

"Oh?" Qin Guyue's eyes flickered, and then asked again: "It's just that Yunjing and Yunshui Villa are thousands of miles away. If the mechanism of using troops is so rigid, you must see the owner's handwriting before sending troops. Can’t bring out autographed letters and other tokens in a crisis, or Yunshui Villa has urgent matters, and it’s too late to report to the Patriarch, how to deal with it? Shouldn’t the soldiers stay still? In this way, [-] private soldiers are just a display!”

Liu Wangcai knew that Qin Guyue was still paying attention to private soldiers, so he explained: "Then the counterattack can only be carried out if there is a majority approval of the Senate, or if there is an enemy invading the territory of Yunshui Villa."

When mentioning the Qin family's elders' meeting, Qin Guyue felt restless for a while.Since he returned to Yunshui Villa, he has been receiving invitations from the Council of Elders to meet with him.Some of these old guys are Qin Zhantian's uncles, uncles, and some are old and immortal, and even Qin Zhantian's grandpas. It's not that they have no martial arts cultivation, but most of them have not broken through the star rank After failing to fight for the Patriarch of the Qin family, most of them retreated behind the scenes. Of course, some die-hard elements would be purged. Those who basically cooperated, after all, were brothers and could not do harm at will, so they became the elders.

Although most of the Patriarchs of the Qin Family act resolutely and the Council of Elders is as quiet as a cicada, there are also a few generations of Patriarchs of the Qin Family who have become puppets of the Council of Elders and are at their mercy.The struggle for power exists at any time. After all, the Qin family has lasted for so long, and the intensity of the struggle for the head of the family even tends to match that of the royal family!

Tell these old guys to reach a consensus?I don't know that it will be the Year of the Monkey!

Qin Guyue knew that her strongest army in the southeast: the private soldiers of the Qin family were useless.But this one failed, Qin Guyue immediately changed her mind and asked Liu Wangcai: "Then tell me, are there any masters in these four families, but are there any powerful figures?"

Hearing Qin Guyue's words, Liu Wangcai heaved a long sigh and said, "Master, this is the real reason why the villain hides the truth and hopes to calm things down!"

"Oh?" Qin Guyue regained his senses immediately. "Could it be that there are still masters among these families?"

"Yes, these families can be domineering. In fact, the forces above the court, except for the Long family, have not served in the cabinet for several generations, but they have been focusing on cultivating disciples. Why, collecting all kinds of secret books and elixir, this generation has produced several incredible young talents..." Liu Wangcai paused for a while and continued: "Although the young master, you are counting on Du Qiang and Qin Bang. The Southwest Land has been spread, but these people may think that although you are not an idiot, you are very clever, but after all, you are weak and only at the level of a soldier, so you dare to be so arrogant and domineering."

"Oh?" Qin Guyue thought about it, but smiled coldly: "Then tell me, what is the strength and magic of the young talents of these four families?"

"Yes." Liu Wangcai responded and told the masters of the younger generation of the four families like a few treasures.

The young master of the Long family is called Long Ruo, and this time Liu Wangcai was the one who hurt Liu Wangcai. Although he is young, he is just like Qin Aofeng. He was already a master in the realm of soldiers, and now it is said that he has reached the realm of Wuzong.This kind of talent and promotion speed is simply staggering.Moreover, he not only cultivated the Dragon Family's unique internal skills "Tianlong Heart Sutra" to the ultimate level, but also mixed several sets of heaven-level exercises as means of attack. The relic after the fall has a profound heritage.

Qin Guyue listened carefully, but sneered in her heart.The spirit soldier of the deceased master?What a joke, what spiritual weapon can compare to the Qianqiu sword in my hand?It's just that the "General Trend of the World" move in the Fleeing Years and Thousands of Years and Passing Water swordsmanship is a god-blocking and killing god, so if you encounter this Long Ruo in the future, you have to frustrate his spirit.
