Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Xuanwu's brows frowned tightly: "If he really wants him to do this, it will indeed break the roots of our family. We used to support Liu Yu, but it was not to make ourselves unable to live on, even if he We can also express our support for the Northern Expedition, but the bottom line is that we have to get corresponding benefits during the Northern Expedition, and the other is that our existing benefits cannot suffer too much. In other words, we must not smash the jobs of our children and grandchildren. "

Suzaku said solemnly: "That is, if there are no people, who will do the work for us, is it possible for our nephew to go farming by himself?"

Qinglong smiled slightly: "You two, do you really think that if some tenant farmers have enriched Jiangbei, do they cut the roots of our family?"

Suzaku gritted his teeth: "Qinglong, you can't protect Liu Yu like this. When are you still saying this? The Northern Expedition was not so easy. Back then, Huan Wen and Xie Xuan were such heroes, and they didn't come home in the end. Once we lose, the land of the six counties in Jiangbei may be destroyed by war. Our predecessors never run the six counties in Jiangbei for no reason."

Qinglong said indifferently: "In addition to soldiers and horses, the most important thing in a war is food, grass and equipment. The Northern Expedition could not happen in the previous dynasties. The most important point is that the last military and food were not available. Because the grain and grass could not keep up, the success failed in the end. Liu Yu managed Jiangbei to move the heavy grain and grass used in the Northern Expedition forward to reduce the consumption of the rear. You only see that we are now losing some tenant farmers, but don’t want to think, if we really want to Is there no loss in fighting? The grain and grass in the south of the Yangtze River have to be transported to the front, and the manpower and material resources in our manor have to be expropriated. It will only lose more and more.

Suzaku sneered and said, "No matter how much the loss is, it is only a temporary need, but if you do this, people and food will go directly to Jiangbei. What are we left? We just reaped some money from the treasury? Those are still from our estate. What is produced here, take the tax we paid, and come back to collect our people. Do you think it is a good thing?"

Qinglong sighed: "Suzaku-sama, you better accept the current situation. The world has changed. It is no longer the time for the family to control everything. Now the Beifu Qiu is the eighth world in Beijing, this time Liu Yu can punish Kill Wang Yu, tomorrow you can also deal with the openly confronting us. Then, what will you take to top it?"

Suzaku gritted his teeth and said sternly: "Can he kill Wang Yu, and kill all the noble families in the world? Not to mention, even in the Beifu Army, there are two giants, Liu Yi and He Wuji. Wei Yongzhi, Tan Shao and other generals, we will ask all the children of the family not to go to Liu Yu's shogunate, but to go to Liu Yi He Wuji, so that he can't even be the boss of Jing Ba, see how he can do it! "

Bai Hu waved his hand: "Suzaku-sama, don't get excited, with all due respect, you can only say something angry here, do you think it is possible to do what you want to say?"

Suzaku's mouth opened, but she couldn't respond.

Xuanwu sighed: "Yes, everyone now knows that Liu Yu is the first person in the world. There has never been a lack of people who tend to follow the influence and cling to the nobles. In the past, we can speak with a hundred responses, because we hold the power in our hands and secretly hold. Resources, even the emperor is just our puppet. But now, Liu Yu is very firm in his military power or political power. Although there are factions and competition within the Beifu Army, as long as the children of the aristocratic family with a little brain will still know, Following Liu Yucai is the most promising. Because, who is in charge of arranging foreign wars is in the hands of Liu Yu. He can make Liu Yi in charge when he marches west, but he will definitely not give the opportunity to others when the Northern Expedition arrives. ."

Suzaku said bitterly: "Could it be that you just sit and wait to die, watching Liu Yu take everything from us?"

Xuanwu did not reply to Suzaku, but looked at Baihu: "Master Baihu, now that you have known Liu Yu's plan to emigrate to Jiangbei, you must have a countermeasure, what do you think?"

Bai Hu looked at Xuanwu and said calmly: "Before I say what I think, I would like to ask Master Xuanwu to elaborate on the black robe. The so-called cultivator is your speculation, or is there any real evidence? Up?"

Xuanwu's brows wrinkled slightly: "I haven't fully checked it out yet, but I can basically confirm through various sources of information that both the former Suzaku Wang Ningzhi and the former Qinglong Xi Chao have deep contact with Heipao, and they have a lot of hands. Wushisan and hallucinogenic drugs are also related to the black robe, and even the prescription of the longevity man, I am afraid that black robe is also involved."

Bai Hu's face changed: "You mean, five stones are scattered..."

Xuanwu nodded: "It is very possible that the power of the black robe is very powerful, but he does not have any manor and tenants on the bright side of Wudi. Where does the funding to maintain his huge organization come from? I think, Except for the sales of Wushisan, it is difficult to have other sources to suck."

Bai Hu nodded thoughtfully: "Yes, the five-stone powder used to be provided by the Taoist priest. Since the rebellion of the Taoist priest, even if the Wu land has been beaten into white ground, these five-stone powder transactions are One day has not been stopped. Those family princes in the capital who have a dissipated nature have never stopped ~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ The people behind the system and the sales, have studied them deeply, and they have a lot of background."

Xuanwu hooked the corner of his mouth: "Every inn, wine shop, gambling shop, and brothel in the capital, there are private rooms of unknown origin and no one who runs them, and transactions involving Wushisan are often carried out here. This is the rule since the founding of the country. Don’t ask the seller, just look at the goods. For decades, no one has been involved in these transactions because offending the children of the family is definitely not something ordinary people have the guts to do."

Bai Hu smiled and said, "In other words, we don’t know who made these five-stone powder and how to sell it. Don't know, right?"

Xuanwu nodded: "Yes, Master Baihu, you are not in this circle the first day, don't you even understand this?"

Bai Hu sighed: "I haven't noticed this aspect before. The children of the aristocracy have the same demand for Wushisan, just like ordinary people's demand for firewood, rice, oil, and salt. They usually don't think about where these things come from every day. Like people who buy rice, will they think about where the rice in these rice shops come from?"

Xuanwu said sternly: "Then according to Master Baihu, maybe we can reveal the true face of the black robe through these five-stone transactions?"
