The fiefdom increases by 1 soldier in 1 second, and the empress kneels down and begs not to rebel

Zhang Zisheng's expression did not change. After putting down the tablet, he looked at his father and said:

"Dad, is it that you can't understand, or is what I said too straightforward for you to accept?"

Zhang Li's expression froze, and after a short silence he spoke:

"Zisheng! You can't say that! Even if...even if His Majesty wants to give up Xijing, it will be a last resort. The chaos in Xijing has been going on for a long time. This was not caused in a day or two."

Zhang Zisheng picked up the handkerchief, then walked to the corner of the ancestral hall and took out a wooden bucket, which was already filled with clean water. She skillfully put the handkerchief into the bucket to wash, and at the same time said:

"Dad, why do you think the people in Xijing rioted and why did they join Tuyuan Kingdom?"

Zhang Li pondered for a while and then said: "Xijing has been occupied by the Tuyuan Kingdom for decades and has been deeply influenced by the Tuyuan Kingdom. They have already subconsciously believed that they are from the Tuyuan Kingdom."

"Coupled with the fact that Tuyuan Kingdom was behind it, they naturally had the idea of ​​​​reliance, but it was only today that they completely exploded."

Having said this, Zhang Zisheng had already wrung out her handkerchief. She stood up and walked to the table, casually saying:

"I don't think so."

Zhang Li frowned, "What do you mean?"

Zhang Zisheng brushed away a strand of black hair from his forehead, bent down to wipe the table, and said:

"The past two years of Daqian are said to be a time of peace and prosperity, but where is the prosperity? How can it be called a prosperous age when it only prospers the emperor's family and not the common people."

"The taxes in the past two years have been higher than during the war. Last year, Your Majesty went to Jiangnan, and the construction of the villa started there the year before last. How much tax money was spent?"

"Naqing Prince's Mansion can be called the second royal palace. Just the servants who serve it are countless."

"Xijing is a border land, not much better than Beiliang. With such heavy taxes, it is very difficult for the common people to live. The Tuyuan Kingdom promised the local nobles of Xijing to lure them with small profits and encourage them to lead the people to independence. "

"How can it not be chaotic?"

After finishing his words, Zhang Li's eyes widened with surprise and shock on his face.

"You...how did you know?"

Zhang Zisheng looked neither sad nor happy, and said calmly: "My second brother told me about Xijing."

After the words fell, Zhang Li's eyes shrank with a look of astonishment on his face.

The second son, Zhang Ye, had a big quarrel with him a few years ago, and then ran away from home. He has never been heard from again, and it is not known whether he is dead or alive.

Now that he heard the news that his son was in Xijing, he trembled, his mind shook, and he said in a trembling voice: "He is in Xijing? What's going on now..."

"Well, it's pretty good in Xijing. I just received his letter not long ago." Zhang Zisheng replied. At this point, she changed the topic, "Dad, do you know how Beiliang is doing now?"

Zhang Li was slightly startled, and then said: "There are no Hu horses in Beiliang. Today, His Majesty said that Qin Ze has wiped out all the Hu horses. He has returned to Beiliang. There should be peace now."

The corners of Zhang Zisheng's mouth pursed slightly, and for the first time there was a slight fluctuation on his usually plain face: "Hu Ma has been wiped out, that's pretty fast."

"But to say the least, it's only a matter of time..."

Zhang Li narrowed his eyes slightly, "Why do you say that?"

Zhang Zisheng said calmly: "Didn't we hear news from Beiliang last time? In Beiliang, grain taxes have been greatly reduced. People who have surplus food at home will be able to stay strong."

"Qin Ze also violently and resolutely wiped out all the bandits in Beichuan. It was like killing a chicken to scare the monkeys. Aren't the bandits in other parts of Beiliang everyone frightened? Those who are smarter should think that they can no longer be bandits and must be citizens. Only in this way can there be a Have a good life.”

"In this way, Qin Ze can recruit people in Beiliang and train them into soldiers. Even those good bandits can also be used. Over time, with his military experience, he will naturally be able to lead a large army. Come."

"Once we have soldiers, we can deal with Hu Ma. However... the speed with which he eliminated Hu Ma is indeed a bit beyond my expectation. It is really... too fast."

"But no matter what, it's a good thing."

After finishing his words, Zhang Li was filled with emotion and couldn't help but said: "You are right, Qin Ze has indeed made an immortal contribution this time."

"It's just... you still don't know. Qin Ze is now leading his army to the capital."

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Zisheng stopped what she was doing and raised her head suddenly. There was a glimmer of light in her eyes, but it only took a moment before she calmed down and asked casually:

"Why?"

Zhang Li did not notice the change in his daughter's expression. At this moment, he lowered his head, rubbed his eyebrows, and sighed:

"It turned out that Huang Long had already colluded with Hu Ma. Huang Tianhu led 50,000 Panlong troops. His true intention was to kill Qin Ze."

"Fortunately, Qin Ze saw through the poisonous plan and was not harmed. The Panlong Army and Huang Tianhu were already dead on the grassland. Qin Ze is now coming to the capital to kill Huang Long in the name of Qingjun."

After the words fell, Zhang Zisheng's eyes flashed, and he was about to speak, but he heard Zhang Li continue:

"Your Majesty knows right from wrong and has ordered Huang Long to be killed."

"It seems that Qin Ze does not need to return to Beijing."

"What if he still wants to return to Beijing?" Zhang Zisheng lowered his eyes and asked his father.

When the words came into his ears, Zhang Li couldn't help but be startled, and then his expression became tangled. He opened his mouth, but didn't say anything for a long time.

Seeing his father fell into silence, Zhang Zisheng continued:

"If he ignores His Majesty's order and still wants to return to Beijing, does that mean... that he has the intention to rebel?"

"Stop talking nonsense!" As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Li yelled!

"Qin Ze is the son of Haotian. The Qin family are all loyal people and will never have any intention of rebellion!"

"Alas..." Zhang Zisheng sighed inaudibly, not knowing why.

But soon, she raised her head, looked straight at her father and said, "Dad, my child has something unclear. I hope you can help me answer it."

Zhang Li was startled, "Wha...what? Just tell me."

Zhang Zisheng stood up, looked at the bright and sunny sky outside the ancestral hall, and said:

"In ancient times, heroes competed for hegemony, and the Central Plains was a must-win area. For this reason, all the overlords were vying to claim the Central Plains. Zi Sheng wanted to ask her father, what does this 'deer' refer to?"

Zhang Li raised his eyebrows and replied immediately:

"An animal like a deer is not small in size, but it has a peaceful temperament. It never harms other wild animals. It just eats grass and leaves every day. But if those beasts want to eat it, it has no choice but to escape. If it cannot escape, that deer Can be reduced to prey in the mouths of ferocious beasts.”

"Therefore, the ancients used deer to refer to the people of the world. The people are docile and kind, and they can only be bullied and harmed. But if you get the people, the world will be yours."

Zhang Zisheng nodded, frowning slightly, and then sighed softly:

"From this point of view, the phrase 'it is unknown who will kill the deer' means that no matter what, no matter who gets the deer, the deer will eventually die."

"If this deer falls into the hands of someone who treats it well, it will die a good death. If it falls into the hands of someone who treats it badly, its fate must be very miserable."

After saying this, Zhang Zisheng turned around and looked directly at his father's somewhat bewildered face...
