The king behind the empress

Chapter 87

As a result, Yang Weishang didn't continue to talk, but Mo Zizai also knew what happened back then, Tang Shuyu was laid down, and Mo Zizai's father also died of an old illness.

The reform trio formed by the emperor, two of them disappeared before they started, even the emperor himself disappeared, leaving only a dark thread of aging.

Mo Zizai thought for a long time in silence before asking: "Mr. Yang Ge, have you ever thought about that those aristocratic families have actually noticed your intentions when my father abolished the humble status?"

"Although they didn't say anything, they were secretly prepared to resist, and even murdered Uncle Tang was planned for a long time."

Hearing what Mo Zizai said, Yang Weishang gave Mo Zizai a surprised look for the first time, as if he was getting to know Mo Zizai for the first time, "It seems that we all underestimated the prince before."

"You're right. They really planned it for a long time. This is the conclusion I came to after discussing with His Majesty for a long time after the accident."

"General Tang took the route of elite soldiers. At that time, [-] of the [-] troops under his command were elite soldiers. With these [-] elites alone, General Tang was able to defeat the Jiangnan family. Openly resist."

"That's why they designed General Tang secretly. Once he dies, the family's crisis will be completely resolved."

Hearing this, Mo Zizai nodded slightly. Tang Shuyu's [-] elite troops were indeed scary, but what was even more frightening was his [-] Phoenix Guards.

Seven thousand phoenix guards, most of them were warriors, after following Tang Shuyu to ambush, under heavy siege, they followed Tang Shuyu and killed more than five times as many enemies before being annihilated by the opponent.

In a tight siege, you can fight more with less, and you can kill more than five times as many enemies. Such an army is rare even in this world.

However, Tang Shuyu's army is strong, and the Jiangnan family is not all useless. If Tang Shuyu really wants to send his troops south, even if he can defeat the Jiangnan family, there will not be much of the [-] elite left in his hands.

And after that, the final result can only be a beaten and riddled Jiangnan, which is obviously something that Mo Zizai's father doesn't want to see.

That's why he adopted the method of reform to nibble away at the aristocratic family bit by bit, but unfortunately, he failed.

After the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms ambushed Tang Shuyu, they used the news of Tang Shuyu's siege to plan to eat [-] elites without a leader. So far, the entire elite army of the Eastern Region was wiped out. Not to mention deterring the aristocratic family, even the defense line of the Eastern Region could not be defended. Lost several cities in a row.

"As expected of a thousand-year-old family, it really is difficult to deal with."

Mo Zizai sighed slightly. None of these aristocratic families that can be passed down is simple. Not only have they spread their tentacles all over Dazhou, but they are also extremely sensitive to crises. Once there is any trouble, they will immediately notice it.

Not to mention that Tang Shuyu was tricked by them, even if he hadn't been tricked, it would be very difficult to completely get rid of the family.

To deal with aristocratic families, one must rely on the hard work of generations, or one can absolutely suppress the strength, forcibly clear them in a short period of time, and then cut off their living soil.

Of course, when the old family is cleared, there will definitely be a new "family" emerging. The problem of class is an eternal problem, but Mo Zizai doesn't want to solve this problem. What he wants is to destroy the existing family. Well, let the people live a good life for a few hundred years.

As for after that, he is probably already dead, so there is still so much to do, just let future generations have a headache.

"Officials are in collusion with local forces, and they are deeply intertwined, and the whole body is affected."

When Yang Weishang said this, he glanced at Mo Zizai, and said meaningfully: "If you are not sure, don't act rashly."

Originally, when Mo Zizai returned to Beijing, Yang Weishang didn't care about it. In his opinion, although Mo Zizai will have a temper this time, it doesn't matter, just let him be a mascot in the palace honestly, and he won't affect the overall situation.

It turned out that Mo Zizai seemed to be a different person when he came back this time. As soon as he came back, he directly beheaded the son of the minister of the Ministry of punishment, and then killed all directions in the court hall. Killed more than 20.

He thought he would be able to calm down for a while by killing so many people, but within a few days, Zuodu Yushi was confiscated and imprisoned, and it seemed that he could not escape death.

As a result, Yang Weishang couldn't sit still, and if Mo Zizai continued to kill him like this, something would happen, so he had to invite Mo Zizai over to have a frank talk.

Mo Zizai heard that Yang Weishang's implication was that he was blaming himself for beheading those ministers. He smiled indifferently, and then asked back: "Mr. Yang Ge, in the current situation, the court has no soldiers, no money, no food, what are you doing?" How many years do you think Da Zhou can last even if I don't do anything?"

"With His Majesty's current level of diligence and the old man's secret assistance, there should be no problems within three years. As for three years later..."

Yang Weishang was a little melancholy, Da Zhou is now suffering from frequent disasters, even with his ability, he can't guarantee what will happen in three years' time.

"Three years?"

Mo Zizai glanced sideways at Yang Weishang. When Dazhou was in such a precarious state, he could still say that Dazhou should persist for three years. This made him sigh a little. Let Da Zhou last for three years?"

"If you have money, there is a way to support it, and if you have no money, there is a way to support it."

Yang Weishang didn't show any complacency, he just sighed slightly, "Whether it is the way of being an official or the way of being a king, there is nothing more than the word balance. Now that the Great Zhou is in danger, we don't want the Great Zhou to be destroyed. I don't want to see it."

"So, as long as His Majesty is willing to compromise, give up part of the power, and suffer the people, Da Zhou can barely maintain it."

"Heh, you suffer from the common people, the elder Ge also came from among the common people, are you willing to suffer?"

Mo Zizai sneered, shook his head without hesitation and said, "What's more, I don't like compromise, I don't like balance, and I don't want to suffer the people. In my opinion, it is better to suffer officials and families than to suffer the people."

"After all, if they suffer, they can still live. If the people suffer, they will die."

"Is this why the prince beheaded those ministers?"

Looking at Mo Zizai, who was full of vigor, Yang Wei was still noncommittal, but asked, "Has the prince ever thought that doing so will intensify the conflict?"

"Those officials who were beheaded by the prince had the support of the family and clan behind them. Now that the prince has beheaded them, have you ever thought about how they will react?"

Most of the officials who were beheaded by Mo Zizai in the court hall were above the sixth rank. Officials of this level, even if they do nothing, can bring a lot of benefits to the family behind him. Killed, how could they not respond.

"Reaction, what kind of reaction can there be?"

Mo Zizai replied quite resolutely: "The big deal is rebellion, I'll wait for them."
