Chapter three hundred and eighteen without permission
"Takahashi, what are you doing! This man is the hereditary marquis of the empire. Although his stupid behavior caused us losses, his ancestors made great contributions to the empire. His marquis was also recognized by the empire. He himself died bravely. As an imperial soldier, we should give him a decent amount, rather than cutting off his head like a barbarian!"
The squadron leader Wang Yuxuan, who participated in the suppression of the Huaining Hou Mansion, was angry at the actions of another squadron leader Takahashi.
No matter what, this person is a marquis!
"Wang Jun, if you said, why do we need to reform and what is the meaning of reform?"
Takahashi was also very angry and raised the head of the marquis in his hand, as if asking Wang Yuxuan, and as if asking all the officers and soldiers present, "Isn't the reform of reform just to eliminate these arrogant powerful people? If the powerful people continue to parasitize the body of the empire, then our reform will be a failure!"
"this..."
Wang Yuxuan didn't know how to explain to Takahashi the true meaning of the reform was not a silence of killing, and the way the original ruling class of the empire could not be as simple and crude as Takahashi said. The consequence of doing so was to put the imperial army and the reform cause opposite to all the officials of the empire, which was undoubtedly a disaster.
So, he thought for a while and said, "No, Takahashi, you are wrong. There is no absolute black or white in the world, just like the powerful and the nobles have good or bad. Look, that family is good!"
What Wang Yuxuan pointed to was the Yangwu Hou Mansion, which had just used paste to paste on the door, "Everyone is responsible for traitors."
The big word "shun" written with red pen on the gate of the Hou Mansion is very conspicuous under the illumination of the torch.
"If every powerful family is like this family, it can avoid unnecessary bleeding. I believe that the powerful family must be open-minded and supportive. Takahashi, don't forget that the powerful family is also a member of the empire. They have no reason to hope that the empire will not sink."
"Yes, I admit that what you said makes sense, but they are as stubborn as this person, who refuses to accept the reform and just wants to preserve his hereditary privileges. If these people are not eliminated, they will definitely be the biggest enemy of the reform and the biggest enemy of the imperial army in the future!"
Takahashi said loudly, "The kindness to the enemy is the cruelty to himself. I don't want to be hung on the gallows by these powerful people one day! As for the good powerful people you mentioned, they may really exist, but I can tell you with certainty that they are a small part.
And, their attitude depends on whether our saber is fast enough! If we are not fast enough, if we have fantasies about them, if we are kind to them, then, I think, their saber may be sharper than ours!”
These words left Wang Yuxuan speechless for a moment. He felt that he was right, but he vaguely felt that what Takahashi said was reasonable, so he was very contradictory.
Perhaps, his entanglement is why changes within the empire must bleed? Why did the imperial army have to start a massacre in the heart of the empire?
These are different from what he believes in the concept of reform.
But he seemed to have forgotten one thing, and the first thing that attacked them was the marquis he wanted to give to, not the imperial army itself.
.........
"Thank you for your hard work, soldiers!"
"This is what the Duke asked the young men to prepare for the soldiers. The Duke said that the reform was a major event for the Emperor Ming, and it must be extremely hard for the soldiers to participate in it. These snacks are the Duke's little intentions. I hope the soldiers can use some of their faces!"
"Eat, eat, eat, and continue to maintain the reform after eating!"
"If I hadn't been older, I would have acted side by side with you!"
"Ah, so, thank you!"
"I have said long ago that our ministers represent the interests of the people and they will not be enemies of the people's army!"
"Ah, an inconspicuous meat bun makes me urge to cry!"
“…”
After seeing the Imperial Army officers and soldiers’ iron-blooded methods of the British Duke’s Mansion, the Ding Guogong’s Mansion’s understanding of reform became tall and profound. The Duke’s wife personally went to the kitchen to urge him, and a basket of buns and various exquisite snacks were sent to the gate by the servants like flowing water.
"The Duke of Guo asked the general to express his consistent supportive attitude towards Dingguo Duke's Mansion to him. The Duke of Guo said that he, Eunuch Wei and his old friends of the emperor's personal soldiers, have always been committed to promoting the cause of reform and support Eunuch Wei without reservation. He hopes that after Eunuch Wei returns to the capital, he can visit the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion, so that the Duke of Guo and the whole mansion can feel the vitality and wisdom of being brave enough to ordinary people..."
The actions of the Duke of Dingguo Mansion became a good example for the other honorary and relatives. After half an hour after the reform officers and soldiers rushed into the Kyoko Factory, the honorary and relatives expressed their support for the reform cause through different methods.
The most practical and safest way to support is naturally to deliver food. This method is a good way to do both sides. Of course, the way to do this is basically a temporary law school.
That is, I just spent money.
The "Encouragement of Zheng" has gone deeper. They actively sent people to contact the reform officers and soldiers, expressed their support to them or requested some work that could be done.
For example, the living supplies needed by the reform officers and soldiers, and the maintenance of regional public security.
Deeper levels, such as the vacancy of the court official positions and the redistribution of interests, are temporarily not easy to touch.
As smart as Yang Wuhou, he finally figured out why his family was the marquis and why the Xu family was the Duke of the State.
That means that you always fall one step behind.
Although it is just a small step, there is an insurmountable gap!
"That old bastard Xu Xi is speculating and colluding with the rebels. This marquis must study his book!"
The "speculative" mentioned by Marquis Yangwu is the first word that appears most frequently in the economic section of the Huangming Daily. Around this term, the daily newspaper published different articles, but one side supported and the other side opposed. The newspaper itself did not show its position, which obviously made readers think.
"What are you still standing stupidly? You haven't got some food to deliver to the door!"
Marquis Yangwu was still very willing to go out at the critical moment. "Take all the good things in the kitchen and leave the Imperial Army soldiers with the impression that my Marquis Yangwu's mansion is more supportive than any other family! Never let Xu Xi, the old thief who speculatively defeated him!"
Ginseng soup and shark fin rice. As long as there are any ginseng, the Marquis of Yangwu left out.
If not, he always feels empty.
Moreover, judging by the capital's turbulent posture, maybe the reform will be successful... It may not be a bad thing to invest in an opportunity now.
The master spoke, and the people below had any concerns. Not long after, the lively outside the Yangwu Marquis Mansion became lively. The stable nearby reform officers and soldiers took turns to eat the table, expressing high praise for the generous manner of the Yangwu Marquis Mansion and the word Dashun on the door.
However, several people from the East Factory came to the Marquis' Mansion at the same time and said they wanted to see the Marquis.
"East Factory?"
Marquis Yang Wu was stunned for a moment, and then furious: "What are those bastards coming out now? Is there a lot of chaos in the world? Get out, tell them to get out!"
Joke, the imperial army has entered the city, and the dignified Marquis of Yangwu is still afraid that you will not be able to protect the East Factory!
But not long after, the housekeeper came over with a bitter face and said that the people from the East Factory had entered the mansion because the people from the Imperial Army came in with them.
Nani?
Dongchang and the Imperial Army got together?!
Marquis Yang Wu took a breath of air conditioning and felt that he might have made a serious mistake. It was not too late to repair the sheep, so he immediately went to the front hall to greet him.
Sure enough, several monks were standing in the reception hall of the Yangwu Hou De, surrounded by a team of imperial troops holding muskets.
The leader of the Fanzi dressed in a general flag, but he didn't look like a martial artist from the Jinyiwei. Because he was fair and clean, he was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses from Liangmingzhai in Jingli, and he was very gentle.
Considering that although the other party was the small general banner of the East Factory, he was accompanied by the Imperial Army, Marquis Yangwu must not be arrogant. He had a bright smile on his face and ordered the servants to serve tea. Then he was about to come forward and make a few polite words.
