Chapter Five Hundred and Sixty Six: Good Guys and Bad Guys

If people in the world look at it carefully, they can actually be divided into many types.

Those who are mediocre, those who are rich are at ease, those who are ambitious and have great ambitions, each person has his own different interests and will naturally make different voices.

But Xue Ping is undoubtedly the most contradictory and the most tragic one among these people.

There is no doubt that he was the most loyal minister of the Tang Dynasty, but he also saw that the Tang Dynasty had long been out of power, so he naturally wanted to save it from the fire and water. But his own strength was far from enough.

So he saw Li Ze.

He thought Li Ze had this power.

But a powerful person may not be the most loyal person to the Tang Dynasty just like him. A powerful person will naturally have his own plans.

Look at Zhang Zhongwu, after he gained strength, he raised his flag and rebelled.

Let’s look at Zhu Wen again. After taking Chang’an and Luoyang, the dynasty has changed.

Li Ze's power is no weaker than them. Even though Li Ze repeatedly claimed that he was loyal to the Tang Dynasty, can what he did make Xue Ping feel at ease?

The answer is naturally no.

He knew that Li Ze had a strange intention, but Xue Ping had no other choice. This was the last arm he and the Tang Dynasty could rely on.

So he tried hard to wander in this vortex, risking being swallowed at any time and desperately seeking life. For this reason, he even had to do many things that violated his conscience.

Whenever he did something like this and made himself suffer, he could only comfort himself that everything was for the Tang Dynasty and everything was for the overall situation.

After becoming the Minister of Works, he almost traveled all the places under Li Ze's command now. Xue Ping had to admit that in those territories directly controlled by Li Ze, even in those places where he had just surrendered, he could see a vigorous vitality. Even if those people were so poor that they were full of hope for the future.

Whenever those Yixing members gave passionate speeches in these places, which attracted the ragged people to cheer, Xue Ping often empathized with them. He had encountered too many such scenes.

In his opinion, Yixingshe was a freak, the private weapon of Prime Minister Li Ze. However, such an organization he disliked had played a great role in the stability of the entire Zhenzhou court at the grassroots level. Every time he captured a place, he followed the army and was the members of Yixingshe.

Among the members of Yixing Society are scholars who are well-read in poetry and craftsmen. Every time they go to a place, they can not only inspire the poor to stand up and change their destiny, but also take practical actions. Wherever Yixing Society has gained a foothold, the original classes are like snow meeting the sun, melting and disappearing again, and the clan management that has lasted for countless years has been disintegrated bit by bit.

With conflicts and disputes, the first idea of ​​the people is not to go to the clan to complain, but to go to the government to complain. The establishment of government agencies at the villages, towns and counties is building a new order.

Is this OK?

This is of course good.

Xue Ping had to admit that in recent years, whether it is disaster relief or war mobilization, a series of things that require the entire society to be dispatched, the ability of the new order is something that the old order cannot be compared with.

But this is Li Ze's personal achievement.

They were loyal to Li Ze himself rather than to the Tang Dynasty.

When good things cannot be used by me, they are extremely bad. Whether it is Xue Ping or Han Qi, they can only think so, so they can only do everything possible to prevent Zhiyi Xingshe from entering the Hedong area.

The powerful destructive power of Yixing Society to the original ruling foundation of the local area made them feel scared. If Yixing Society was allowed to enter the Hedong area in large quantities, it would not take long before Hedong would belong to Li Ze, and this was already the last private area for them.

Xue Ping, is Han Qi a bad guy?

This is hard to say.

Originally, there was no universal standard for the division of good people. For Li Ze and Li Ze's subordinates, Han Qi and Xue Ping were of course not good things. They always kept their own little thoughts and beat their own little ones. But for Xue Ping and others, Li Ze and his subordinates were all thinking about taking the emperor and replacing it, which was naturally unfaithful, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous.

A good person or a bad person depends on what position he stands on.

That’s the reason for his honey and my arsenicity.

This was really an extremely painful thing for Xue Ping. He watched these places develop rapidly, watched Li Ze's control over these places become deeper and deeper, and the people in these places became richer, while on the other hand, Hedong still looked like an immortal, like a thousand-year-old ancient pool. Even if he was afraid that a stone would not cause too much movement, he would return to his original state in a flash.

This will not work. One day, the wind will blow to the east of the river.

Li Ze is already preparing for the next move, and neither he nor Han Qi, there is any way to deal with it.

Li Ze is preparing to allow the people in all places under his command to move freely. No need for any way to guide him, no other restrictions, you can go wherever you want to settle.

In Xue Ping's view, this is where Li Ze's intentions are ulterior motives.

The common people will have legs to vote for who they support.

It can be imagined that once this policy is implemented, I am afraid that many people in Hedong will carry their bedding and take their children to other places to pursue a new life.

The problem is that when they arrive in a new place, they do have better days waiting for them.

Even in Hedong, you may use rumors, intimidation, deception and other means to scare the common people in a short period of time, but the fire cannot be kept in the paper. There will always be people taking risks and people succeed. Then, a trend will form.

Wealth, after all, is created by people. Without people, nothing can be done.

Han Qi's current mind is completely focused on the affairs of Northwest. He is very open to Xue Ping's concerns. The key is to fight the war well. As long as Li Cunzhong's left military guard can defeat the enemy with great force and include Ansui and other places within the ruling area of ​​the court, then a handsome man will cover up all the ugliness and everything will be easy to say.

Anyone who wins a battle makes sense to say anything, and his voice can also be particularly louder.

But in Xue Ping's opinion, this is just a way to cure the symptoms but not the root cause. Li Ze is shaking their foundation vigorously. Even if Han Qi wins more battles, when the base of their house is corroded and full of holes, there is no reason why the house will not collapse!

But does Xue Ping have a way?

He has no way.

So I could only live so strong but confused, working hard every day, but I didn't know if the goal I finally achieved with such efforts would be counterproductive to my expectations.

"Xue Ping's mind is really broken." In a village in Daqingshan, Wuyi, Gao Lei raised his wine glass and said to Wang Duo in front of him. "If he continues to do this, he will sooner or later put himself in."

Wang Duo smiled but said nothing, but just raised his glass to welcome him.

Gao Lei, the former governor of Hezhong, handed over the Hezhong Mansion to Li Ze, and then he took the position of a top-ranking Grand Tutor himself. Then he found a land in the Qingshan Mountains of Wuyi. He spent all day traveling around and dreaming about his life. He took the Grand Tutor's salary, but he was just a matter of nothing.

Wang Duo, the former left servant of the Tang Dynasty, did not want any official position after arriving in Wuyi, and even his son was not allowed to become an official. He was also leisurely wandering in the green mountains.

In this way, two people who seemed to have no help to Li Ze enjoyed the best treatment in Wuyi. Whenever Li Ze had any good things, he would never forget to send one to these two.

"I won't talk about Xue Ping." Wang Duo smiled and said, "I heard that you beat up a few children in your family two days ago. They can't get out of bed anymore. It's almost the Chinese New Year, why did you take this ruthless move?"

Gao Lei drank it all and smiled bitterly: "If you want to spend this New Year peacefully, you have to do ruthlessly. A few bastards don't know anything, but they dare to think about it. There are three or five friends from the river. After two cups of horse peeing, they make them scream one by one. Tell me, are you angry? If you don't break their legs, I'm afraid they will run out and cause trouble!"

Wang Duo nodded: "No, is the other side of the river ready to move? Even Ding Jian can't calm down, I'm afraid that this move will be no small move."

"Don't look at Ding Jian as a disciple of Zhang Hui, with a sanctimonious look on his face. Such a guy is cruel and ruthless, and even a martial artist is ruthless. In addition, Tu Lichun is in charge of the river. Wang Pushe, what do you think they can do?" Gao Lei sighed: "When the blood flows into a river, many old friends will be separated by yin and yang, hey!"

"If you don't know the current affairs, this is the end!" Wang Duo said disapprovingly. "Teacher Gao is actually very strange. If you ran to Zhu Wen, I'm afraid you will still hold great power and show off your power now. Why did you think of joining Li Xiang?"
