I'm afraid the noble families in Yizhou thought they had already found the next one, and they were becoming more and more unscrupulous in destroying Yizhou. In broad daylight, they carried huge wealth and food and supplies on a long journey, not only without covering it up, but also daring to parade through the city like this.
During this journey, they were not at peace. How many decent girls were robbed by them and died? I don't know whether to say that they are arrogant in their daily lives and have developed a character that does not know the immensity of heaven and earth. Do they really think that the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and no one can control them?
As far as Qiao Xin knew, they were not the only ones targeting them. There were also other noble families. Don't think that the noble families were all harmonious. There were still a lot of fights for fame and fortune, and intrigues. It was just that they took advantage of the opportunity this time.
"None of them is innocent. All the disciples of the noble families who can stand on their own have participated in the decision-making of family affairs early on. How could the current chaos in Yizhou have nothing to do with them?"
In Yizhou, these people drove up prices, imposed heavy taxes, annexed land, bullied the weak, forced good people into slavery, and forced common people to sell their children.
During this period, the most bustling place in Yizhou was the population market. In order to pay the taxes collected by the noble families, the men first mortgaged their land, and then took their sons and daughters to the market to sell. After selling them, if they still couldn't raise enough taxes, they would sell their wives, but if it was still not enough...
Then the whole family had no choice but to pack up and run away overnight!
But it would be fine if they could run away, but some can't even run away.
On the official road, at the small road intersection, at the dock, and even at the bridge, there were lackeys from the aristocratic families guarding there. Some people were so desperate that they jumped into the river on the spot, and some were driven back and hanged themselves that night...
That's why the noble families didn't let them go. With a little encouragement from behind, many people who couldn't survive, got excited and started rioting. Under the deliberate guidance of those with ulterior motives, they turned their spearheads against the inspectors sent by the court. They became a knife for the noble families to fight against the court!
Even after death, he will be accused of being a mobster!
.......
When Yizhou sent people to assassinate Qiao Yunqing, Qiao Xin began to deploy manpower in the local area. The news of Yizhou could not be hidden from him at all. When the news came, she couldn't tell how she felt in her heart!
The world is too lenient towards those in power. The court laws have no effect on them. They set the rules and these people don't need to follow them at all.
The benefits are for them, wealth, status, power, all belong to the small groups at the top. After they have dominated one place, they just pat their butts and leave, moving to another place without any loss, and continuing to abuse their power without paying any price!
Why?
If Qiao Xin had never seen the beauty of this world, perhaps she would have been like the people today, thinking that all this was fate, silently enduring these hardships like the people today, and hoping to be reborn into a good family in the next life.
However, she has seen that ordinary people are happy and healthy.
She also worked with her compatriots to protect that beautiful country!
How can a person who has been bathed in light remain indifferent when facing such a hell on earth?
Waiting for retribution is nothing more than self-consolation for the weak.
She felt that she should do something unrestrained to be worthy of this journey!
At that moment, there was only one ridiculous thought in Qiao Xin's mind.
Screw the aristocratic families, damn it, what are you worried about? Balancing the forces of all parties is what Emperor Wu is concerned about. All he needs to do is to avenge his enemies and do what he wants.
Since they don't care about anything, I will do it myself and let you have a taste of the feeling of having your family torn apart!
When Qiao Xin returned to the village, he killed the third in command and his gang of minions, and labeled all the villagers as criminal slaves. Then he set fire to the village and all the houses.
On the way back, Qiao Xin would use any bandit den he encountered as a practice ground, no longer avoiding them as before.
You are allowed to farm, hunt and be a bandit all at the same time, and you are also stirring up trouble everywhere. Your claws are so long, you should chop them off!
Qiao Xin's reckless behavior frightened Shunzi and others. The number of bandit heads they chopped off during this period was almost the same as that of a small battle!
The bandits within a hundred miles of Xiaogushan are not all deaf and blind. Those who heard the news had already hidden themselves. Who would dare to approach such a vicious and evil person?
In the face of powerful military force, all bandits are paper tigers. Their fists seem invincible only when facing civilians who have no power to fight back. But in front of Qiao Xin, they can only be planted in the ground!
Shunzi and others were secretly hoping that the Second Master would come quickly to persuade the old lady, as they were a little impatient!
The old lady was really provoked and had no intention of leaving any room for retreat. If she continued like this, things would really get out of control, and it would be difficult to end it.
"Why don't you go and try to persuade them? You're the best talker among us!" Wang Da Kui pushed Shunzi and scratched his hair in annoyance.
They are really afraid that something bad will happen to the old lady if she continues like this!
Shunzi looked up and was surprised to see that everyone was staring at him. They seemed to think so highly of him!
He is just a manager of an outer courtyard and an employee. How can he persuade his boss?
Besides, he didn't think the old lady needed them to persuade her. She was old and experienced, so what had she not experienced?
"What's there to persuade? What's there to persuade? The old lady doesn't understand anything? She's just holding back a grudge. Once she lets it out, everything will be fine!
If you ask me, the old lady thought too kindly of the noble families and the bandits. Now it is a good thing to see with my own eyes the crimes they committed!"
Zhang Yun came from Dingbian Marquis Mansion and had seen the methods of the noble families. He subconsciously said, "What are you talking about? Is this a good thing? Half of the court is made up of people from noble families. We can't offend them all. Otherwise, the three gentlemen will have a hard time moving forward in the future!"
Shunzi curled his lips and disagreed: "You also said that half of the court is made up of people from aristocratic families, but for so many years, what have they done except collecting taxes from us? The world is still so chaotic, the court has changed one after another, and the people sitting on the dragon throne have changed one after another.
If they were really capable, the world would have been unified long ago, and it wouldn't be so divided like it is now! After going through so much, you don't still think that the noble families are invincible, do you? In my opinion, in this chaotic world, only those with the biggest fists have the final say! Anyway, I am just a worthless life, so I am not afraid of a thing!"
