Two Hundred and Four: Hidden Chaos in the Family
Seeing that Feng Jin wanted to deny it, Han Yu pursed his lips and smiled, "Huaiyu don't pretend to be deaf and dumb, can this matter be denied?"
Feng Jin knows his friend's temperament, and knows that if he doesn't give an explanation today, this person will pester him all night.
Thinking about it, Feng Jin thought of an excellent excuse, and naturally explained plainly, "A few days ago, when I met Liu Junshou by chance, I knew that the other party was a gentle and generous elder. Do you think Mr. Wuma's treacherous thoughts Liu Junshou will not see through? Now that he has seen through, why did he agree to marry the concubine under his knees to Mr. Wuma? This... To put it bluntly, isn't it because you personally pushed your blood relatives into the fire pit?"
That's right, both he and Feng Jin could see through Mr. Wuma's disguise, but there's no reason why someone like Liu Junshou couldn't.
What's more, Huaiyu also said that Liu Junshou is quite gentle and family-friendly in private, so how could he not pay attention to the only daughter's marriage?
"So, you lost your composure because of this?"
Han Yu narrowed his eyes, as if he still had doubts about Feng Jin's words.
Feng Jin said seriously, "Otherwise? The lady of the Liu family is less than nine years old, and Jin will start a family in two years. What's the matter? Besides, the lady of the Liu family has been raised in a deep boudoir since she was a child. Even the elder brother Lan Ting rarely sees her, how can Jin, a foreigner, get into trouble with her? You are just flirtatious, how can you speculate and slander your daughter's innocence like this?"
Han Yu lost interest and sat beside the bed resentfully.
He changed the subject and asked, "In that case, according to what Huai Yu said, why did Governor Liu act like this?"
Feng Jin also couldn't figure it out, but secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Han Yu is not easy to deal with, and he will be finished if he shows his feet.
Feng Jin shook his head in bewilderment, "Jin doesn't understand this either, I think she has other considerations for coming to Governor Liu."
A man with a generous and gentle personality and caring for his family, who also possesses extremely vicious judgment and experience, would he not be able to see through Mr. Wuma's clumsy disguise? It doesn't make sense at all! Unless, there is some reason that must be done, prompting Liu Junshou to do so.
Han Yu's face was covered with the word "interested", but Feng Jin couldn't arouse his curiosity.
Whether Liu She marries his daughter or not is all his family business, what are two unrelated outsiders getting involved with?
Feng Jin read for a while in front of the lamp as usual, and when she felt a little sleepy, she planned to sleep under the covers.
just lay down
Han Yu said, "I hope it won't be involved in the government affairs. Liu Junshou's methods always feel... a bit intrusive."
Feng Jin secretly laughed, "If a person like Liu Junshou is not for the government's arrangement, is it possible that it is for personal enmity?"
If it is out of personal enmity, you marry the son you have raised for several years to Mr. Wuma, what is the reason?
Han Yu couldn't figure it out, and couldn't figure out Liu She's intention at all, "Forget it, my brain hurts if I think too much."
The two talked about some homework, and learned from each other what happened to each other over the years, they couldn't help but sigh.
Suddenly, Han Yu suddenly remembered Mr. Yuan Jing's worries a while ago.
"Sir, I've been quite worried recently. The power of the family has reached such a height. If we don't restrain ourselves, something may happen."
Both of them were still up, talking about things to pass the time.
Feng Jin smiled coldly, "Rein in the precipice?"
How can it be done?
It's not that no one is aware of this problem, but the key point is that the family's carriage, which is sliding down a slope, is out of control.
"If the master of the world is also a member of our family in the future, maybe he can continue the glory, but what if he is not? Even if he is a member of the family, which family can tolerate the majestic royal family, but is controlled by his family? Or even lowered? , has reached the bottom line..."
Han Yu was stunned for a moment, never thought that Feng Jin would have such a bold idea in his heart.
However, Han Yu couldn't refute his words.
Now in Dongqing, the royal family is the Wuma family on the bright side, but the four masters are really at the helm behind the scenes.
Which of the states, counties, and counties who hold important positions is not from a family?
How many children from poor families are there?
Dongqing has always emphasized culture and suppressed martial arts. The army is weak, and almost all of them are wasted on the battlefield in the northern border, and each of them has its own forces.
If the aristocratic family refuses to agree, the order issued by the emperor will not even be passed on to Shangyang Palace!
Isn't the royal family afraid of these noble families?
fear!
Of course I'm afraid!
Sitting in the world, but not enjoying the supreme power, who feels at ease?
However, the Dongqing royal family changed emperors, and the open and secret struggles with the aristocratic family gradually faded away, and they lost their prestige at all.
Fortunately, the interests of the aristocratic family are not the same, and each has its own contradictions. The Dongqing royal family is also in this weird balance. They are in front of his royal family in a daze, always thinking about taking back their rights, and they keep making small moves.
As the direct son of the Feng clan, it is not easy for Feng Jin to be able to clearly see this shortcoming.
"Jin hadn't thought about these things before, but...after coming to Hejian, she saw Sheriff Liu, and she suddenly woke up. It seemed that the fog in front of her eyes was blown away by the breeze, allowing her eyes to see the truth. The chaos in Hujun, There are natural disasters as well as *, * is greater than natural disasters! Why is it that other people are troublesome and even die because of it, but Liu Junshou persists and even governs Hu County as it is today?"
When others are pursuing Liu She, it seems that few people are willing to delve into the connotation of the problem.
Is it because they don't want to?
Or don't dare at all?
Liu She didn't exterminate all the gentry and gentlemen in Hu County, and those people's lives were far from easy, and they all lived in fear, not daring to do too much under Liu She's eyes... But, will this prevent future troubles forever?
Not necessarily.
"Liu Junshou was named and promoted to the chief examiner this time, and there will be other changes in the future. For example, he was promoted to the state shepherd on the surface, but in fact it was to take Hujun from him... Do you know how many people covet Hu County? If Liu She is no longer the sheriff of Hu County, or if a hundred years later, Hu County changes to a new leader, guess what will happen to Hu County?"
Han Yu's mouth was dry, he knew this question without thinking about it.
Hujun is like a lamb carefully raised by Liu She, it grows up gradually, becomes fatter, and the wool on its body becomes thicker.
Beside it, there are countless greedy eyes watching.
Once Liu She, the shepherd, is distracted, or simply disappears, the fat lamb will be plucked by the greedy watchers, and those with a little vision will probably keep this sheep, and pluck some when it grows some hair hair……
If you meet someone who is greedy and can't wait for the wool to grow, I'm afraid they will kill this fat sheep directly!
Han Yu said, "At the end of the day, Governor Liu still cared about his aristocratic status and failed to kill all those country gentry to avoid future troubles."
Rationality tells them that it is best to kill them all, but they are all descendants of aristocratic families.
If the same question was put in front of them, I am afraid that the decision they made would be the same as Liu She's, or even softer than him.
Han Yu frowned slightly, as if he was quite displeased with this heavy topic.
What made him even more displeased was that he knew that he would never be able to avoid this contradiction in the future.
Unless, he is willing to waste all his talent and learning, and live in seclusion in one place with peace of mind, no matter how many disputes and fights there are outside.
But is it possible?
impossible! (To be continued.)
