The king behind the empress

Chapter 108 Who is Barefoot?

Hearing that Mo Zizai said that he was not going to pay, Zhou Qi understood Mo Zizai's plan in an instant. Since he left the imperial mausoleum, what did Mo Zizai do the most?

Except for the two heavyweights Hu Xiaosheng and Yang Xiong, those who were beheaded by Mo Zizai in the court hall were all copied. If Mo Zizai's sixth uncle did not ask Mo Yuanchang to intercede, I'm afraid that Mo Zizai's uncle, that is, Zuo Zongzheng of the clan's mansion, had already been beheaded and ransacked by Mo Zizai.

So now that Mo Zizai said that he was not going to pay, he probably planned to raid the house again.

"My lord, I'm afraid it's not feasible at this time."

Zhou Qi's temperament is relatively straightforward, and he has protected Mo Zizai for so long, so he doesn't have much scruples about talking to Mo Zizai, "Those grain merchants are different from the ministers of the court and China. If they copy them directly, it will definitely make those merchants Everyone is in danger, and by that time, no one will come to the capital to sell food."

"If the situation really reaches that point, I'm afraid the capital will really face the dilemma of food shortage."

"Don't worry, they dare not."

Mo Zizai walked with his hands behind his back, explaining to Zhou Qi as he walked: "The influence of the merchants has not yet been established. Although they have money and food, they have no one and no influence at all."

"Now, most of the people who have the final say behind their backs are those aristocratic families and secret officials, and they don't have much right to speak at all."

Speaking of this, Mo Zizai glanced at Zhou Qi and found that there was a thoughtful expression on his face. He obviously hadn't figured it out yet, so he said more bluntly, "Zhou Qi, do you think those aristocratic families dare Let the capital run out of food?"

"They didn't come forward about these things." Zhou Qi frowned, and said with some hesitation: "Even if the court runs out of food, it has nothing to do with them, so why don't they dare to let the capital run out of food?"

Regarding Zhou Qi's question, Mo Zizai just chuckled, and then said lightly: "Zhou Qi, have you forgotten that there are [-] elite Yulin soldiers in the capital?"

Hearing this, Zhou Qi finally understood. He looked at Mo Zizai with an unbelievable expression, "My lord, what do you mean..."

"That's right!"

Mo Zizai clapped his hands suddenly, and said, "If they dare to watch the capital run out of food, then labor and capital will directly become the leader of the rebels and lead soldiers to rob his mother."

"Thirty thousand Yulin army, it is definitely useless to penetrate the south of the Yangtze River, but there is no pressure to collect food from aristocratic families in several places."

"It's a big deal that the capital is gone. I want to see how many aristocratic families have the strength to stop the [-] Yulin army."

Hearing Mo Zizai's generous words, Zhou Qi felt that his three views had been refreshed by Mo Zizai. It was obvious that this big week belonged to his Mo family. Even if Tang Weiyi was the emperor now, he still owned at least half of the country.

As a result, when he said this, he seemed to be barefoot without any scruples, and those aristocratic families became shoes-wearing, and he had to accommodate him in everything.

Looking at Zhou Qi's shocked expression, he said earnestly, "Zhou Qi, this world is hard and fearful. Whoever is willing to let go will be able to do so."

"After all, I dare to sacrifice Dazhou's 800-year foundation to fight with them. Do they dare to risk their lives to meet me head-on?"

"If they don't dare, they can only compromise honestly. They dare not do anything except use some tricks behind the scenes."

Hearing that Mo Zizai was like a street hooligan, Zhou Qi was extremely helpless. Is it really appropriate to bet on Jiangshan at every turn?Among the emperors of all dynasties, how can there be such an emperor who treats the country as a trifle? No wonder the first emperor didn't pass on the throne to you. It's true.

"My lord, what if those aristocratic families dare to fight you head-on?"

"There's nothing wrong with it."

Mo Zizai was not worried, "There are many families but different hearts. What they are best at is to protect themselves wisely, not to be hot-blooded."

"As long as they don't drive them to a dead end, they won't go all out. Those who dare to go all out are called revolutionaries, not these bullshit families."

"The prince must not underestimate the family."

Zhou Qi is not good at admonishing, but at this moment he has to say a few more words, "Besides, Jiangshan is no joke, even if there is any slight possibility, don't relax."

"I hope the prince can think deeply. If the family really dares to sit back and watch the capital run out of food, then..."

"so what."

Mo Zizai interrupted Zhou Qi's words, shrugged and said, "It's a big deal to change the Great Zhou Dynasty to the Great Tang Dynasty. At that time, it would be nice to let Weiyi change from the Great Zhou Empress to the Founding Empress."

"Kai...the founding empress?"

Zhou Qi couldn't keep up with Mo Zizai's leaping thinking, how could she be the founding empress?
"correct."

Mo Zizai nodded seriously, "If there is a fight at that time, it will definitely be a situation where the heroes are divided, and who among the heroes can be stronger than me, not to mention that Wei Yi and I have a righteous position, just say me The fact that people can speed up their cultivation is enough to make me invincible, as long as I am given a certain amount of time, it is not a problem at all to level the Great Zhou."

"It's just that this method is troublesome, and it will cause great harm to the people. I don't want to use this method unless it is absolutely necessary."

Speaking of this, Mo Zizai sighed leisurely, "Actually, I have always wanted to grow in peace and stability, but these people are always looking for trouble."

"Isn't it okay to just wait for me to accumulate enough strength and implement reforms? I have to come and jump up and down to give away the head, there is really no way."

"..."

After listening to Mo Zizai's words, Zhou Qi was silent for a long time, but what he said earlier made sense. If it was true that all the heroes separated Da Zhou, Mo Zizai must be the one who had the last laugh.

But the latter words are a bit too much. What do you mean by jumping up and down? If they are really honestly waiting for you to implement reforms, can you guarantee that you will not settle accounts with them when the time comes?
Well, there is no need to guarantee this kind of thing. Based on Zhou Qi’s understanding of Mo Zizai, he will definitely settle the score after the fall, so these people are dead waiting for you to reform, and they are dead if they try to stop you. Why don’t they make a move.

That is to say, they don't know Mo Zizai's ability and ideas now, otherwise they would have killed Mo Zizai at all costs. After all, the family is not as unbearable as Mo Zizai said.

It is true that they are afraid of death, but the reason why they are afraid of death is to let the family continue to pass on, but this does not mean that when you dig out their roots, they dare not work hard. It is really the kind of family that dare not work hard. It has long been eliminated by the times, and it is impossible to pass it down.

"Forget it, you are the prince, you have the final say."

Zhou Qi's tone was like those of Mo Zizai in his previous life who met his teammates cheating while playing games, he was helpless and relaxed at the same time.

Just like what Mo Zizai said, he is already invincible even if the worst situation occurs, he can rebuild after breaking Da Zhou, so he is not afraid of taking the country at all. To gamble, because let him never lose.
