The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 239
As soon as Dongfang Sheng got home, he called Chen Zhong and gave him such and such instructions. Chen Zhong took the order and left with a solemn face.

The masses are naturally the cornerstone of the ruler, but in any era, it is impossible for the ruler to directly rule the masses, so he needs various officials, and there are families under the officials.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, in many states and counties, the state shepherds and sheriffs appointed by the imperial court were often changed, but those noble surnames had always maintained their detached status. Many of their children would serve as state leaders, so there was a "walking horse" Zhou Mu, stay the same. 'This statement.

If Dongfang Sheng wants to completely turn Yizhou into his own base, he must subdue the local gentry and noble families. Of course, he can't use the way of beating local tyrants to divide the land in later generations.

If he did that, I am afraid that even if he wins the world, he will be overthrown immediately.

Because the most powerful force at this time is the landlord class, which can also be called the lord class. Those gentry who own land and slaves not only control the official career of the country, but also the spiritual and morality of the entire country.

Dongfang Sheng is no different from changing the social hierarchy. After all, it will take a long time. It is unrealistic to jump directly from the era of empire to the era of republic.

Dongfang Sheng only wants to improve the lives of the people within his ability, and the first thing to do is to quell the war. Only when the world is peaceful can we live and work in peace.

Many people say that killing thousands of people is a hero. In fact, Dongfang Sheng thinks that this sentence is correct, but it is not detailed enough.Didn’t the founding monarch in history ascend to the throne by stepping on numerous corpses to rule the world and make the people live and work in peace and contentment?
Seeing that Dongfang Sheng was meditating in the room, Jia Xu immediately picked up the wine jar in his hand and shook the rice wine inside: "My lord, don't think too much. If the four surnames are not removed, Wuyang County will definitely be killed by Zhao Shao." If we take it back again, I’m afraid there will be another military disaster.”

"Wenhe, didn't you cut some pig's ears and come over to drink this time?" Dongfang Sheng couldn't help joking when he saw that Jia Xu's right hand was empty, but he was holding a wine jar in his left.

"Hey, why don't you have pig ears?" Dongfang Youcai brought a food box over, and after opening it, a strange smell came to his nostrils. brain."

"it is good!"

Dongfang Sheng reached out and squeezed a piece of pork cheek and put it in his mouth. The pork cheek was so crispy and marinated once, it tasted very delicious. After Jia Xu poured Dongfang Sheng a bowl of rice wine, the three of them sat down directly. On the Hu stool, eat at the Hu table.

These pork heads were all sliced ​​into thin slices, the cartilage in the pig ears was crispy, and the pork knuckles were extremely delicious. Dongfang Sheng, Dongfang Youcai, and Jia Xu ate them with great joy.

"Here comes the good stuff." Dongfang Sheng said when he saw Lu Yi running into the house with a bunch of black things in his hands.

Before the thing was opened, it began to exude a strong fragrance in the air, and it seemed to have a slight fresh taste.

Just as Jia Xu was about to reach out to grab it, a fat hand immediately snatched it away.

"It's so hot, it's so hot." After Dongfang Youcai received it, he realized that the thing in his hand was very hot, and immediately tossed the thing in his hand back and forth.

"Peel it open and have a look, it tastes amazing." Dongfang Sheng had a smirk on his lips.

Dongfang Youcai carefully peeled off the black mass in his hand, and a gust of heat immediately dissipated.

"Smells so good!" Jia Xu couldn't help picking up a piece with her hands.

Dongfang Youcai looked at it carefully, and said, "This meat is dark gray in color, firm in texture, and smells strange. Nephew, what kind of meat do you think this is?"

"Guess what." There was a hint of mystery in Dongfang Sheng's eyes.

Dongfang Youcai picked up a piece with his hand and put it in his mouth directly, and a burst of fragrance rushed straight to his forehead.

The meat is so chewy!Dongfang Youcai and Jia Xu looked at each other and thought.

Lu Yi watched Dongfang Youcai and Jia Xu eat it, and then said with a smile: "My brother said that this meat came from pigs, and it was also made from piglets. If there is no such thing, the pigs will grow up. There will be no smell."

Lu Yi didn't feel much about Jia Xu when he said this, he still reached out and picked up a piece and put it in his mouth to chew, but Dongfang Youcai suddenly thought of something and ran outside to retch.

Jia Xu didn't understand and was stunned, Lu Yi smiled and took the things in the lotus leaf, took some for himself and gave the rest to Dongfang Sheng.

"Uncle is really reckless, this is a good thing, a man's tonic." Dongfang Sheng smiled and squeezed it up and ate it. "Next time bring some cow eggs and bullwhip, those things will chew better."

Even if Jia Xu didn't understand what he was eating when he heard the bullwhip, there was another person who vomited outside.

The shouts of killing suddenly erupted in Wuyang County, Dongfang Youcai and Jia Xu also burst into joy, as if they were echoing each other from afar.

"It's started." Dongfang Sheng suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

By the time Jia Xu and Dongfang Youcai came back, Dongfang Sheng had already finished the rest of the rice wine.

"Haha, how can drinking be without me?" Zhao Yun was wearing a blue robe and a lun scarf coquettishly. At this time, wearing a lun scarf is just like the popular cowboy hat in later generations, just for coolness.

Of course, Zhao Yun was already good-looking, and he looked even better with his attire.

He was holding two jars of rice wine in his hand. Today Zhang He was in charge of patrolling and guarding the city, so Zhao Yun wanted to find Dongfang Sheng for a drink when he was free.

The shouts of killing outside the city remained the same, and felt more intense.

Zhao Yun's brows twitched and he said, "The power of the family really shouldn't be underestimated."

Of course, Zhao Yun knew about Dongfang Sheng's plan, and Zhang He certainly knew about it, and Dongfang Sheng's order to him was not to let the fight between the four surnames affect Chi Yu.

In the city, four mansions in the government office area were on fire.

Xu Pang stared at Shen Dong, Lin Er, and the Patriarch of the Chen family with a gloomy face. At this time, there were no more trilogy and servants around him to protect him, and all members of the Xu family were lying on the ground.

Although Shen Dong won, his complexion was not very good, because he just learned that Xu Pang had sent someone to attack Shen's house.

"The three of you will follow me!" Xu Pang screamed as he drew out his dagger and wiped it on his neck.

Lin Er looked at Xu Pang lying on the ground with a grim expression, and suddenly lost his mind.

A glimmer of excitement suddenly appeared on Shen Dong's gloomy face. He and the Patriarch of the Chen family exchanged glances, and then suddenly thrust his sword into Lin Er's lower abdomen.

"You... Shen Dong!" Lin Er spat out a mouthful of black blood and pulled at the corner of Shen Dong's clothes, "I'm a ghost and I won't let you go!"

Shen Dong drew out his dagger and shouted loudly: "Don't do it yet?"

The slaves of the Shen family and the slaves of the Chen family attacked the Lin family slave who was standing there, screaming in pain.
