   Chapter 2176 Brother Chapter 2177 Chicken and Monkey

   There is a saying that people are poor and short-sighted.

  In other words, if a person is rich, will his aspirations grow?

   Or some people say that money is the courage of a hero, so is it true that without money, a hero loses his courage?

  Like these big players in the lotus spoon.

  It doesn’t matter if you have more ambition, but if you don’t know how much you weigh, there are some problems. If you think you are a hero, generally speaking, it is not a big deal. When the horse urinates a lot, even the king of heaven is not afraid, but if you really think you are a hero and provoke others, something will go wrong. .

   Then the big player Lian Shao broke down.

  An avalanche is also a blood avalanche.

  Wubao was breached, the whole family was arrested, the servants and private soldiers who were kept in the house were useless, the dead escaped, the escaped and the arrested were arrested, all were caught in one pot...

  The gentry family is a very broad concept. The so-called "family" refers to "a family with a rank for generations", that is, a family that has occupied the position for generations. Salary status is a kind of political power, and this kind of social power can come from political status, economic status and cultural status. There are bureaucrats in the officialdom, wealthy families in the village, and culture in the scholarly circle...

  The generation of Lian Shao is undoubtedly the wealthy family system.

  Today is a big day for the Lian Shao Hao family to gather and kill.

  The day before the winter solstice. This day is called the last day of the four days, also known as "Shui Li", it is extremely fierce, and it is most suitable for killing people.

  The daily value is four separate, don't use it for major events.

  The head of the person was separated and fell straight into hell.

In a year, there are fixed eight unlucky days, which are called "four separations and four absolutes". Will the day of leaving the four extremes also express "it is suitable for marriage, erecting beams, building stoves...".

   Humans are very strange animals. If ordinary animals see their own kind being beheaded, they will always feel somewhat panic and fear, and then basically all those who can run will run away. Whether they are in captivity or in the wild, they basically behave in the same way. However, if human beings encounter an army Thieves, etc., the reaction is similar to that of ordinary animals, but is it like this kind of concentrated questioning...

  Cigarettes, beer, eight-treasure porridge, that comrade let me go...

  Uh, we got crossed.

  Hubing oil-spun meat steamed buns, let me know, young and old...

  It's so lively!

  If you don’t watch something exciting, is that still a person? !

  『Killed, killed! Don't squeeze, what's the matter, go up in a hurry? 』

  『Today, bet three big money! Just bet on whether the three heads are crisp at the beginning! 』

"Hey! Look over there, piss, **** hey! 』

  『…』

   Laymen watch the excitement, while insiders watch the doorway.

  The fate of these big lotus spoons is a symbol of the attitude of the hussars.

  Wei Duan, Du Ji and others stood on one side, and their faces were not very good-looking to each other.

   Kill chickens to scare monkeys? I have never seen a monkey laughing in this situation...

  In the Eastern Han Dynasty, a new bureaucratic force, the gentry family, was gradually rising, and from the Wei and Jin Dynasties to the Sui and Tang Dynasties, a major change in the political form was formed. Several great gentry clans have been prosperous and monopolized power for centuries, and have become one of the most dazzling political landscapes for a long time after the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties.

  And now, Fei Qian's knife has been cut on the big family of Lian Shao, and also on the root of the "gentry family". It's just that some of these gentry people are aware of it, and some are still ignorant...

  The so-called "gentry clan", in simple terms, as the name suggests, is the combination of "scholar" and "clan". These "scholars who learn to be in the position" use their positions as officials to consolidate their families and establish lofty prestige, thus monopolizing officialdom and forming aristocratic families, which itself is a comprehensive phenomenon involving politics, economy, culture and many other aspects.

In the process of political turmoil and succession in the past dynasties, some old classes were always broken and new classes were formed. This gap period of class breaks due to drastic political transformation will show a certain degree of "civilianization of the ruling class." .

  For example, at the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty.

  Liu Bang himself is a local ruffian, and heroes are often born as "dead rogues". The rich and powerful in the early Han Dynasty also had humble families, such as the prime minister Gongsun Hong who was a pig herder in his early years...

  Even the queen who is the mother of the world does not shy away from the humble. Wei Zifu of Emperor Wei of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and Zhao Feiyan of Empress Zhao of Emperor Han Cheng were both kabuki in the past. In today’s parlance, they are "accompaniments".

   When it came to the Eastern Han Dynasty, it didn't work.

Empress Ma of Ming Emperor is the daughter of General Fubo Ma Yuan, Empress Zhang Emperor Dou is the great-grandson of Da Sikong Dou Rong, Empress Hediyin is the great-grandson of Zhijinwu Yinzhi, Empress Hedi Deng is the grandson of Taifu Deng Yu, Empress Yan of An Emperor is the grandson of Shangshu Yanzhang , Empress Shun Emperor Liang is the daughter of General Liang Shang.

  The so-called "the righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period, the first to marry the great country". The queen's birth is also a weather vane, reflecting the concepts of "family name" and "family status", which were already very strong in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Then at the moment, Fei Qian and Cao Cao, who are actually in control of the whole big man, have different marriage models, and they are not blindly pursuing the marriage of the big clan. Wang sent warmth...

  So this time the attack on the big lotus spoons can basically be regarded as an attitude shown by Fei Qian towards these powerful and powerful households.

  As for Wei Duan, Du Ji and others, as well as more descendants of the gentry, although it is inevitable that they feel somewhat sympathetic, many of them do not think that there is anything wrong with Huqi's doing so.

  Because in the Han Dynasty, Fei Qian was not the only one who targeted wealthy and powerful households. In order to maintain administrative order and household registration system, the emperor of the Han Dynasty often attacked the powerful and rightists to protect small farmers.

  In the Warring States society, there were already some non-aristocratic nobles with right surnames. They enslaved children, concubines, apprentices, guests and other people with various identities, and formed master-slave and dependent relationships with them.

The wealthy family occupies a large area of ​​fertile land, in which hundreds of thousands of people are reunited, called guests, trilogy, disciples, etc., they are attached to their masters in varying degrees, and they also take care of the house in addition to farming. It can be transformed into a private soldier at any time, and it may affect the rule of the country at any time, just like this time the big lotus spoons colluded with each other.

To cut, of course, it is impossible to just drag it up and click. Just like a big drama on the stage, there is always the sound of gongs and drums before the main character will appear. When the time is almost up, Pang Tong glanced sideways. Wei Duan.

   Wei Duan subconsciously shivered slightly, then coughed, moved forward slowly, and stood on the high platform.

Countless gazes focused on Wei Duan, making Wei Duan feel as if thousands of bugs were crawling on his body, very uncomfortable, but he couldn't back down, he had to bite the bullet and take out a bag from his sleeve. Roll up the imperial edict and read it aloud:

"Here is a big family of lotus spoons, the Zhao family and the Ma family, who live in Zuo Fengyi for a long time. They enjoy the supply, don't care about people's livelihood, they are rich in granaries, they don't eliminate disasters, they are extravagant, they don't respect frugality, they are greedy for leaders, and they are not loyal. Evil, greedy for money and property, shameless, causing disaster to all, disrespecting the law, rebelling according to the dock, disrespecting the world! 』

  『Such greedy people act pervertedly, causing the stars to lose their degree, and seeing them in the daylight is a crime against the sky. Exploiting the land, seeking wealth from poor land, causing the people not to live, and the village not to grow, is a crime against the land. Lu Yan is poor, more demanding, money is emptied, food prices increase again, starving and dying in the wild, chaotic and desperate, this is a crime for people! 』

  『The hostile energy of the four fields condenses and does not dissipate, and the resentment and poison of the world take shape! It is the image of yin taking advantage of yang, evil interfering with righteousness, and rebelling against the superior! Therefore, the sky undergoes extraordinary changes, with frequent rain and snow, sunset and rising again, drought in autumn and cold spring, water and soil abnormalities, so as to alert the living beings, can we still not care about it? 』

  『The so-called God is selfless, but the people listen to it, Jifu is close to the ground, thieves go about their business, picket their causes, cover them as traitors, disturb the court, and bring disaster to the local area! Luck is like a ghost, and all the money is taken! Far and near are the same, the rich and the poor are in trouble together! Husband is poor to the bone, embraces the pain of heartbreak, traitors beget traitors, benefit more than profit! 』

  『The rich and powerful in the village have no official position, but they use their power to break the straightness. They don’t have the life of a half-knowledgeable Qinglun, but they steal the clothes of the three-day dragon badge. Such people are not virtuous and virtuous in the country, but the thieves of the country! The crime is heinous and cannot be forgiven! If you don't eliminate, you can't calm down the place, if you don't punish, you can't clean up the country! Here today, expose his crimes, expose his evil, and spread them all over the world, so as to serve as an example to others! 』

Wei Duan recited it all in one breath, thanks to his daily practice, he didn't say he was short of breath and his words were slurred. However, when he was reciting on the stage, the big family of lotus spoons and others in the audience were not idle, and they cried one after another. Those who shouted, or prayed, or simply yelled, and some were paralyzed to the ground by fright, it was different.

   Wei Duan looked left and right, and before he got down from the high platform, someone among the big households on one side shouted: "Wrong! Injustice! The villain wants to expose! To expose! 』

  Hearing this voice, Wei Duan couldn't help but shiver...

   Not only that, but the monkeys who were on the side also became restless.

  Among the group of monkeys, Du Ji suddenly realized that there was something wrong with the group of chickens!

  How can a chicken voice be so high-pitched and full, full of grief and indignation, and so penetrating under such circumstances? Could it be that living conditions are so good in this hussar prison? Shouldn't it be dying, with no ability to resist?

  Pang Tong, who was sitting at the top, waved his hand, and immediately a soldier brought out the big family who shouted to be exposed...

  『Tian’s…』

  Among the group of monkeys, many people recognized them and began to whisper among themselves.

  Du Ji noticed that some people's faces began to turn pale, and even in winter, the sweat on their heads kept flowing down.

  Du Ji sighed, and silently moved his position a little without showing any signs. Who would have thought that at first he thought he was a monkey, but in the blink of an eye he turned into a chicken! In this way, the people in the audience may be like monkeys. After all, monkeys are a group of people who watch the excitement and don't think it's a big deal...

"What's wrong? Don't you want to ask about beheading? 』

  『I don’t know...what was that person reading on stage just now? Do you understand? 』

  『Who can understand? Gossiping, officials like to talk nonsense, if it were me, I would just say "cut"! Then there are people rolling around all over the floor, what a joy! 』

  『What are you going to do now? Don't kill it? If you really don't kill, then it's meaningless hey! Baba rushed over early in the morning, it was freezing cold, was it easy? In the end, if you don't behead your head, isn't it just nothing to look at? 』

  『Isn’t it? Wait... What's going on here? 』

Pang Tong, who was at the top, lowered his eyes and looked at the Lian Shao Tian who was kneeling below, and said: "Your crime is heinous. Even if you report and expose it, you will inevitably die... At most, your wife will be exempted from labor... so, Do you want to expose it? 』

  Pang Tong laughed, as if he was talking about eating and drinking tea, rather than life and death.

  The big family member of the Tian family hesitated for a while, and then knocked his head on the ground with a bang: "Someone wants to expose it!" 』

  Human psychology is very wonderful.

  Sometimes it is very strong, harder than diamond, and sometimes it is very fragile, like carbon powder.

  For these big households, since the day they were arrested, they have hoped that someone will rescue them.

   After all, they also gave money...

   Or something else, utensils, women...

They thought that it was supposed to be like a transaction. They gave money, things, women, everything they wanted, and then those people would give some convenience, some discounts, and sometime. Turn a blind eye and give special care and necessary assistance at certain times...

   But the problem is, no.

Then these big households found that no matter how well they talked before, how close they were, even the "virtuous brothers and virtuous brothers" who shared the same bowl of rice, drank a glass of wine, and had **** with the same woman, it would be no problem if it was ordinary trivial matters. , Encountered really trouble, immediately severed the relationship, completely ignoring these "difficult brothers and sisters".

   This kind of operation is naturally very normal.

   Don't blame the basics.

In the eyes of these money-collecting officials, these local households, who do not have any court positions, are actually similar to cash machines. They can withdraw money when they need it, laughing and joking for entertainment, and everyone spends money together. But who would go all out just because the cash machine is broken?

   Are you out of your mind?

  The cash machine is broken. At most, you need to walk a few more steps, spend more time, and find a new cash machine. If you spend your own life on it, how bad is it?

  Until the last moment, these ATMs, uh, the big family of lotus spoons still held on to the last little hope, hoping that there would be a scene of "keep people under the sword", and then they would escape from death...

  Ordinary people don't quite understand what Wei Duannian said, but these rich people can understand it. Even the most stupid ones can more or less understand what it means to be "heinous, unforgivable!" If you don't eliminate, you can't calm down the place, if you don't punish, you can't clean up the country! 』

  The knife is about to be chopped off, so if you don’t say anything, you don’t need to say anything!

  So, are these big lotus spoons willing?

   Not reconciled.

  It is not reconciled to change anyone.

  Since these people can't save the big family, nor can they protect the big family's wife and children, then naturally they can only rely on the big family to save their wives and children...

  If I die, I will somehow leave a way for my wife and children to survive! At least you don't have to do hard labor! These big households know that if they don't say anything, when they really die, will those officials who collect money take risks for a dead person? There is no hope of living, but after death?

  『A certain revealed that Chang’an received millions of dollars from Cao Yin’s family...』

  『A certain report, Changling Cangcao took over a certain Zhuangzi, a hundred acres of fertile land...』

  『A proof, the Zhang family of Maoling extorted 200,000 yuan and 500 stone grains...』

  『…』

  Following the voices one after another, many people were sitting on pins and needles, sweating profusely, even if they wanted to control it, they couldn't control it...

  Look at Wei Duan.

   Wei Duan looked at his nose with his eyes, his mouth and his heart, motionless, like a statue.

  Aim at Du Ji.

  Du Ji closes his eyes slightly, as if his soul is wandering out of the sky, not in the mortal world.

   Turning to look at Li Yuan and other officials who have not been mentioned yet, they all have some gloating smiles...

  Who will help with this matter? Whoever comes forward will be the most suspected, not to mention that the Hushi is going to practice the palace again, or that Pang Tong is going to be recruited, and they are just reporting and exposing, who dares to act rashly?

  However, some people really dare.

  When a dog is in a hurry, it will jump over the wall, when a chicken is in a hurry, it will fly up a tree, and when a monkey is in a hurry, it will naturally open its teeth and show its teeth...

   Only one person stepped out.

  『Pang Lingjun! If such people have the merit of reporting, they should be saved from death, and should not be beheaded! 』

  『A husband who is a descendant of a man makes his clan be ruined and humiliated; a father who is not a man who makes him die like his house, is this what a benevolent and filial master should endure? Nowadays, although the people of Lian Shao have evil deeds, they know how to repent. The master has said that mistakes can be corrected. There is nothing good about it. Pang Lingjun has a heart of great enlightenment, and he also has the actions of building virtuous talents. He is more respectful, thrifty, and wise. If you are a talented person, why don't you be considerate and love the people, spare these lives, and also wear the body of sin and seek virtue? 』

  『Everything in the world depends on cause and effect, carelessness and inaction, and those who are greedy for luck can get it for a while, but not for a long time. The people of Lian Shao don't know how to think about this, so disasters and misfortunes have changed. Although they want to inquire again and report, and seek to save themselves, there is nothing to make up for! Only Jia's heart of repentance is evident, and he can still be encouraged. "Book" said: "If the medicine does not cure the dizziness, the sickness will not be cured." Chao Gang's stupidity is like a wolf's disease. It should not be a suffering to cure the disease and save people. How can it be cut directly for the disease? Siblings? Are all the talents in the world right? If you make a mistake, who would dare to follow it? 』

  『If you are not talented, you have been recruited by the hussars, so you can become an official. Now that the three assistants are in chaos and safety, you are also honored and disgraced. Please make you think twice, if you need to be magnanimous for a while, and let others pass by first, then the three assistants will be very lucky! What a blessing! 』

  Seeing someone taking the lead, a bunch of people followed, clapping their hands together, "I hope you think twice, think twice!" 』

Wei Duan frowned, as if he wanted to do something, but in the blink of an eye, Du Ji, who was not far away, looked like a statue. It seemed that even the robe on his body was not moving at all, so he couldn't help but ponder for a moment, and then With lowered eyebrows and lowered eyes, one, two, three wooden men got up.

  Some people shouted loudly in front, while others stood in place like Wei Duan Duji. For a while, the scene became more or less subtle...

  (end of this chapter)
