After the three of them looked at each other for a while, they quickly reached a consensus on the seriousness of the matter, and then, the three of them were silent for a while, and the six monarchs pointed out what the two of them thought:

"Two, Tang Mo led the army to be stationed in Shou County at this time, and in my opinion, I am afraid it is not only to deal with the Song State, but also to deter us. Now that the feudal monarch in the country, it is difficult for the Jianghan side to become a climate, and only our Jianghuai side still has strength.

There is no doubt that most of the nobles in the country are opposed to the change of law. Therefore, Tang Mo is in Shou County, I'm afraid that the king is waiting for me. ”

Liao Jun's face showed embarrassment when he heard this, but he said in an approving tone: "Alas, why is it so far, the king really doesn't trust me too much." Although we oppose the change of the law, it is only to avoid national turmoil, can we still raise troops to resist because of the king's change of law!

Back then, Wu's reform was much more drastic than it is now, but even so, the nobles in the country never directly raised troops to oppose the change.

Now the king sent a large army to garrison Shou County at the beginning of the change, guarding us like guarding against the enemy. This..."

Liao Jun lamented: "What the monarch does is not at all what the monarch should do, if it continues like this, I am worried that the relationship between the monarch and the minister of my Chu State will be ruined!" ”

"Liao Jun, it's not as serious as you say." At this time, Lu Jun frowned and said: "Zhu Guo led the army to be stationed in Shou County, it was for the Song State, not directly against us, why did it come to the point where the monarch is not a monarch and a minister is not a minister."

According to the following opinion, as long as the King of Song surrenders and the crown prince gets through this difficulty, then the Zhu Kingdom will naturally lead the army back to Yingdu. ”

At this time, when the six monarchs heard the words of the two, they first looked at Lu Jun, then at Liao Jun, groaned for a while, and said: "The two of you, the affairs of the king and the Zhu Kingdom, are beyond our control, whether the Zhu Kingdom is for the Song Kingdom or for us, we cannot reverse the will of the Great King."

And the main thing we need now is how to stop the people under our rule from fleeing. ”

Saying that, the six monarchs looked at the two of them, and sighed with a sad face: "Two, it's not a secret, since the king began to divide the fields in the counties, the people under the rule of Xia were confused by the title of the fields, and there has been a matter of fleeing with their families. Therefore, in order to prevent the people from continuing to flee, they invited two people to come here as a last resort. ”

At this time, Lu Jun's eyes lit up when he heard this: "The six monarchs said this, could it be that there is already a way, to be honest, they are also worried about the escape of the people during the next period of time!" ”

Liao Jun also looked at Liujun expectantly when he heard this: "What do you think of Liujun, listen to me." ”

Seeing that the two of them were all looking at each other expectantly, the six monarchs shook their heads and sighed: "There is no good way in Xia, because the fiefdoms of the three of us are very close, so I hope that we can unite and send troops to guard the roads under our rule, and strictly prohibit the passage of thieves without household registration."

And if you are shocked to find that there are thieves passing, then immediately arrest them, and then see if it is our people who have fled, if it is the other party's people, then give it to the other party, if not, then..."

The two nodded at the same time when they heard the words, although the rest of the words were not said by Liujun, but Liao Jun and Lu Jun understood at the same time, since there is no household registration, it is a thief, and if a thief is caught, then there is nothing to say, if you are in a good mood, you will be reduced to a concubine to farm, and if you are in a bad mood, you will be reduced to a slave.

Then, Lu Jun hesitated and said: "Liujun, although this method is feasible, but our fiefdom is also connected to the surrounding counties, if the people do not take the avenue, but directly take the small road to the counties, how should this be good?" ”

Liao Jun thought deeply and said: "Lu Jun is reasonable, according to the king's edict, now the counties around us are recruiting thieves, as long as our people go to the counties, it must be meat buns and dogs that will not return!" ”

"It's not difficult to say this, as long as the three of us and even other feudal lords work together, this won't be a problem." Liujun said with a smile: "What I mean is that the three of us will jointly send a letter to the surrounding county Yin, asking the counties to set up gates on the avenue to help us arrest the people, so that those fleeing people will naturally have nowhere to escape when they see that the counties are arresting them." ”

"No." Liao Jun shook his head and said: "The king issued an edict to let the counties recruit thieves for the people, and strictly ordered the counties not to be embarrassed to go to the thieves. ”

"No!" Liujun smiled: "Of course you can't catch thieves, but, in other words, what about arresting fugitive people?" The people under our rule, but the kings of Chu and the kings of the past gave us, their ownership belongs to us, and the counties and even the kings cannot forcibly take them away.

Therefore, as long as we tell the counties that the people in the classics have escaped, or that the people have been abducted by thieves, then the counties will definitely help. ”

"This..." Liao Jun Lu Jun glanced at each other, and nodded at the same time: "This matter is feasible." ”

"Good!" Seeing that the two agreed, Liujun immediately spoke: "Then we will send a letter to the surrounding counties and counties later." ”

"Yes!"

Then, Liujun spoke again: "Two, setting up a pass on the road is a way to treat the symptoms but not the root cause, and it is not even a symptomatic treatment, after all, if the people have been walking the mountain and forest paths straight to Shou County, then there is nothing we can do."

Therefore, there is another way below, and I would like to invite you to refer to it in detail. ”

"Liujun, please speak."

"The two of them, I thought that the reason why the people fled was because they had no concern, and if they had concern, then they would not have fled easily.

Therefore, in the following meaning, why don't we recruit a strong man from every household under our rule in the name of building water conservancy roads, so that the elderly parents are concerned about their sons, the young wives are worried about their husbands, and the young children are looking forward to their fathers, so that those people will abandon their sons, husbands, and fathers and flee?

That's how I control one person and the whole family. ”

Lu Jun immediately frowned deeply when he heard this, Zhu Guo Tang Yu led the army to garrison Shou County, originally worried about turmoil in various places, and now they are recruiting Ding Zhuang on a large scale, people who know them will think that they are building water conservancy roads, and those who don't know will think that they are preparing to rebel.

Thinking about it, Lu Jun immediately shook his head and said: "Liujun, I think this plan is very inappropriate, the country has been fighting for many years, the people are tired and poor, it is the time to cultivate, and even the king has issued an edict to let the people cultivate, at this time, Ding Zhuang is wantonly conscripted to serve in the conscription, the upper is contrary to the will of the king, and the lower is contrary to the will of the people, so this plan is not feasible." ”

At this time, Liao Jun echoed: "Lu Jun is reasonable, and, more importantly, the king's edict, the action of recruiting thieves will last for two years, if we recruit a strong man in each household, so many people, such a long time, not only the people can't afford it, but even we can't afford it, so this matter is not feasible." ”

Seeing that the two of them spoke against at the same time, the six monarchs immediately frowned deeply.

Whether it was the previous blockade of the road, or the conscription of Zhuang Ding just now, it was actually to show the king's strength and attitude, and wanted to strongly oppose the king's change, so that the king would dispel the idea of changing the law as soon as possible.

However, this plan has just been exported, and even Liao Jun, who has the best relationship with him, has spoken against it, let alone other feudal monarchs.

Seeing that the plan failed, the six monarchs immediately complained: "If you don't strengthen your control over the people, then what can you do in the face of the people's flight?" ”
