Chapter 223: A Hundred Feet of Collusion (18)
Zitian had no idea how powerful the people's resentment was, and he didn't know that when it could be profitable, it would be powerful enough to destroy the king of a country.
There have been countless riots and countless expulsions of kings, but the kings still do not have a long memory, or their interests drive them to not have a long memory.
Zitian thought that he was the monarch of the country, so it was natural that he occupied the upper echelon of etiquette, and of course there would be a gentleman like Gongsun Ze to protect him.
Therefore, he did not want to agree to the conditions of the ink for the time being.
However, a gentleman like Gongsun Ze was ridiculed by Zitian himself, so it is destined that there will not be too many such gentlemen.
Outside the palace.
The nobles' armor had already surrounded the Xiao Wall, a stone's throw away.
The appearance of Gongsun Ze and others did not affect the actions of these armor soldiers, even if the forty or fifty people had the strength to engage in military training since childhood, but after all, the number was too small.
Those people who watched the excitement of Shangqiu pointed out to the palace.
Da Yin and others sent eloquent people to the vicinity of the people, read out Zitian's indictments aloud, and incited the emotions of the people.
"Zitian's selfishness angered the Chu State, leading to the danger of destroying the country, which is a crime that harms the community and prevents the ancestors from being sacrificed."
"Zitian angered the state of Chu and caused the Chu people to besiege the city. Now the Chu people sent down the dead soldiers and burned the granary. Even if the ink master is good at guarding, won't the Chu people retreat to the outer city of a hundred steps? When the time comes, there is no food in the city, but Zitian does not surrender because of his selfish desires, can he be starved to death? It's not you who are starving? β
"Zitian reuses the Sicheng Emperor's lineage, and the Sicheng Emperor presents Jiahe to the Sanjin Dynasty, which causes the Chu people to be angry, shouldn't Zitian bear these evils?"
"A few years ago, there was a nursery rhyme in the city, saying that the period of decay is not over, and it is impossible to know who the king is. Isn't this destiny? β
After several crimes were read, Shu Cen Xi, a prince who could replace Zitian as the monarch of the Song State in the "Mandate of Heaven Nursery Rhymes", came forward and loudly announced something with a group of nobles.
"Zitian's sin cannot be forgiven. If you can break through the Xiao Wall, then the Shi Shoutian Ten Spirits! All agriculture and industry are successful! If you can take the lead in attacking the Xiao Wall, you will be subject to the corporal! β
The nobles naturally will not give their own interests, but once Zitian is defeated, then it will be difficult to protect the Sicheng Emperor lineage.
At that time, in addition to most of the fiefs of the two people, most of them were divided among the nobles who carried out the coup d'Γ©tat, and the rest could also be given as rewards to those soldiers who participated in the coup.
The speeches of the ten days of the field and the success of the agriculture and industry were imitated by the declaration of Zhao Jianzi before the expedition.
Or some people say that it is Tian 100,000, but in fact it is not the case, but Tian Shiyu.
"Zhou Li" has clouds, five families are neighbors, five neighbors are inside, and four miles are drunk.
At that time, the neighbors only said that it was still there, and the theory of drunkenness was rarely mentioned.
The neighbors, the li, and the fu are all remnants of the special organizational form of the half-peasant and half-army that existed in the era of feudalism.
"The Royal System" said: 100 acres of farmland. The 100 acres are divided into nine people, eight people are eaten, seven people are eaten, six people are eaten, and five people are eaten by the farmers. If you are in an official, you think it is bad. The corporal of the princes regarded him as a farmer, and he was able to plough on his behalf. Sergeant times corporal, sergeant times sergeant, corporal times sergeant. Qing, the four great doctors. Jun, Shi Qinglu. The secretary of the second country, the three major husbands, the king, and the ten qinglu. The secretary of a small country, the double doctor Lu, the king, the ten Qinglu.
According to this feudal tradition, the output of the land cultivated by a peasant should be enough to feed nine families.
The farmer is counted as a household.
The corporals, on the other hand, had to take on more military obligations and had to train off duty, so they had to do the same as the peasants without farming, that is, they had to feed nine people at least without farming.
There were some small slaves in the family, and the corporal generally had a farmer, so the corporal lived a much better life than a farmer who had to rely on himself and pay taxes.
The sergeant has twice as much as the corporal and the sergeant has four times as much.
Among these nobles, many of them belong to the scholars, and Shu Cen Xi, Da Yin and others directly expelled Tian Shiyu's reward, which really made these scholars excited.
Ten drunkenness is a hundred households with five people, one neighbor, five neighbors, one mile, four miles, and one drunk.
The military obligations that these 100 households need to bear in peacetime are a horse chariot and a hundred soldiers.
With the expansion of the scale of the war, the proliferation of various mounds and armors, and the fiefdom of a hundred households can provide up to four times the original chariot.
This is a completely coveted opportunity for taxis.
For the farmers present, this reward also means that they have the opportunity to get ahead without looking at their pedigree.
In the past, Bi Wan was exiled to the Jin Kingdom, and was born from a puppet, experienced seven battles, and was promoted from corporal to secretary.
From Corporal Sima Chang, who can only be in charge of twenty-five people, to Qing, who can recruit one hundred and twenty-five chariots in his fiefdom, no matter how you look at it, this is a beautiful road for a counterattack.
And Bi Wan's grandson is called Wei Partner, Wei Gang of Wei Gang of Grass, Bi Wan's descendants and Wei Si, it is this person who leads the three families.
It's just that this seemingly beautiful road is not something that ordinary farmers can copy.
Because Bi Wan's surname is Ji, he is the descendant of King Wu of Zhou's younger brother, and after the destruction of the country, he took the country as his clan. Counting, the surname Ji of the Jin Kingdom, but the ancestors of the Wei family who divided the Jin Dynasty are also surnamed Ji, but the ancestor of the Jin people is Tang Shuyu, and the ancestor of the Wei people is Tang Shuyu's uncle Bi Gonggao.
Even if Bi Wan is reduced to a puppet, he still has aristocratic blood, still has the knowledge and martial arts of the era of knowledge monopoly, and can even become the right car of Jin Xiangong, so there is such a way for the puppet to counterattack.
The people who were incited at the scene will not recognize the secret behind this, and will only think that they may have the opportunity to copy Bi Wan's path and achieve success from a single master.
Those armor soldiers who were originally above the corporal were even easier to rise to the position than the peasants, and since the nobles and the uncle Cen Xi had come forward to admit it, once they obtained the battle merits, they could obtain the fiefdom of four chariots, which was a huge improvement for everyone's status.
The nobles also announced the reward, saying only that they had prepared hard and thick wood, and if they could break through the gate of the Xiao Wall, then the warriors who knocked on the door would be rewarded with twenty gold!
The great temptation was matched with the original resentment, and the people who watched the excitement received their weapons, chanted the words of expelling the Daoless King, and joined the battle against Xiao Wall.
Whether it was for a reward or not to starve to death in a possible siege in the future, they would choose this after being instigated.
Because, the ability of the Mo people to defend the city is too strong, and the people believe that the Chu people will not be able to attack Shangqiu, so they can only choose to besiege the city soon, and at that time, the emperor who will be eaten by the son in the city will definitely not anger the Chu people and cause Shangqiu to be besieged.
Zitian, who was standing on the high wall, saw that the people who had been incited lifted the logs, screamed and rushed towards the palace gate of the Xiao Wall, and his heart was panicked.
Looking at Gongsun Ze and the others who are still fighting to the death, I understand that even though Gongsun Ze and others are superb in martial arts, the number of them is too small after all.
Listening to the shouting and scolding outside the palace walls, Zitian Fang knew how powerful the people's grievances and interests could be, and knew that nothing could be done, so he finally stopped pinning his hopes on Gongsun Ze and others.
He cried out to the two ink men, "All this is the sin of the widow! The widow's inability to be virtuous and virtuous of Lu Hou and Gongzi Bao has led to the anger of the countrymen, which is my sin! β
"It's just that now that public opinion has been stirred up by those people, how can I come forward to convince them?"
"I'm willing to change my past mistakes and agree with the teachings of your giants, can I know that my mistakes can be changed, isn't this still save?"
The two ink men in charge of the escort waited for this sentence, and said indifferently: "Since the king knows his mistake, it may not be impossible to be saved. The thoughts of the people in the city, our Xuanyi Department can answer for the king. β
"Just ......"
The two ink artists wanted to speak and stopped, where could Zitian take care of a lot at this time, and said in a loud voice: "Where is there anything just that?" β
One ink master said: "It's just that now public opinion has been instigated, but there are still many people defending on the city wall. Now that the king can't come forward, what can the Xuanyi Department promise for the king? β
This is obviously taking advantage of people's danger, but Zitian has no choice but to say: "As long as I can continue to be the king, I will definitely correct my mistakes." Now as long as the people want, it must be something that I couldn't do before, and it is also my mistake. Since they brought it up, I will naturally correct it later. β
As he spoke, he heard a violent crash from the palace gate, and it was obvious that the armor outside was banging on the palace gate.
Zitian's heart was astringent, and he had nothing to do, so he could only pin all his hopes on the only ink man who could come forward to stabilize the situation.
When the ink man heard this, he asked, "As soon as you say it, it is difficult for a horse to chase its snake." The ink is also trustworthy, and the world knows it. I don't want our Xuanyi Department to agree on behalf of the king to the conditions that the king cannot agree, and then the reputation of the ink man's faith and righteousness will be shattered. This is something we cannot allow. β
"Since Zi Mozi promised to help you defend the city, then you will definitely do it. As for the people of Shangqiu, if they agree to their conditions, but the king repents, then the people who think they are untrustworthy are also our ink people! β
Listening to the shouts outside the palace, where could Zitian think so much, and only said: "I can swear to God and ghosts, isn't that enough?" β
The ink man didn't speak, took out two pieces of paper from his body, wrote some words of oath in the common cheap characters of the Mo family and the flower and bird seal of the Song Kingdom, and handed it to Yu Zitian to read, and said: "Please swear!" β
Zitian knew that there was no way to rely on these people in the current situation, so he only needed to draw his sword and cut his fingers, muttered a few oaths, and pressed his handprints on two pieces of paper. 8)
