After Hua Zhou finished reading, Yang Hu was stupid, and then he stood up angrily and asked: "General Hua Zhou, I, Yang Hu, dare to ask if this is what he Wu Zixu means or what the king means?" ”

"Bold"

"Presumptuous"

Hua Zhou's henchmen and generals saw Yang Hu's tone, and they all pressed the hilt of the sword on their waists to reprimand.

Yang Hu is not afraid, he Yang Hu used to be a figure who stood up to the sky, what has not happened, who has not seen it, and is still afraid of this battle?

Hua Zhou waved his hand to calm down the generals, and he said in a deep voice: "Naturally, it is the will of the Prime Minister's Mansion, you know, the monarch is mourning, he has clearly ordered the world, and handed over the state affairs to Wu Xiangguo for the time being."

Yang Hu laughed when he heard this, he suddenly pulled out his saber with a bang, and gathered on the platform, everyone was shocked when they saw this, thinking that Yang Hu was going to resist by force, so he also hurriedly drew his saber.

Unexpectedly, Yang Hu threw the sword he drew on the ground, sneered at the generals in the stands, and finally took three breaths on Ji Qin, and then fell to his knees in front of Hua Zhou with a flutter: "Come on, Pingdong, oh, no, General Pingxi!" ”

Hua Zhou breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Yang Hu bow his head and arrest him, and he stepped forward and said in a long voice: "General Yang Hu, I hope that after this prison disaster, you can carefully understand what you are wrong with?" I think it's good for your future. ”

After that, Hua Zhou waved his hand, and the two lieutenants stepped forward and escorted Yang Hu into a military vehicle.

Yang Hu's gang of "village parties" who swore to follow him to the death saw that the head of the family had given up resistance, and they also threw their swords on the ground one after another, making a fuss.

Hua Zhou nodded and said, "Don't worry, Ben will carefully investigate the sins you have committed, as long as it is not the anger of the heavens, Ben will definitely protect you." ”

When the villagers who followed Yanghu heard this, they thanked them, and then lowered their heads and were escorted away by the other soldiers.

At this time, on the gathering ground, both the Xuanjia Battalion and the Red Turban Battalion were shocked by the scene that had just happened in front of them, they did not expect such a thing to happen.

Hua Zhou saw that the two battalions of troops were in a trance, so he began to boost morale in a deep voice.

Soon, the morale of the army finally stabilized.

Only then did Hua Zhou turn his head to Ji Qin and said: "General Qin, from today on, you will be the assistant general of the Pingxi General's Mansion, and work with me to stabilize the chaotic Qilu border situation."

Qin was the head of the chin and did not refuse.

In this way, Yang Hu's official career as an official in Qi for the first time came to an end.

However, the influence of Yang Hu is huge.

Because of Yanghu's frenzy on the Qilu border, the eight countries on the Qilu border, six of which were wiped out, the four countries became the territory of Qi, and the two countries became the territory of Lu, and in the end, only the trembling Qi State and the Zhuan State remained.

It can be said that there is no buffer zone between Qi and Lu, and once the guns are misfired, it will be a full-scale war.

Due to the small size of the territory and the small eup, the Minister's Office was not divided into counties as usual, but was directly assigned to the nearest Ojo, and became the newly added land of the Oyutze.

As for the Yi order that Yang Hu had arranged, it was also changed by the Prime Minister's Office.

Shao Zhengmao, commander of the left division of the Lu State, saw the veteran Hua Zhou of the Qi State come to power and became the general of Pingxi, and knew that the dispute between Qilu and Qi had come to an end for quite some time.

After he and Hua Zhou met in person to redefine their respective borders, they each led their respective armies to retreat.

The "undeclared war" on the Qilu border officially ended with both sides profiting at the same time.

Lu Di, who was guarding filial piety outside Linzi City, also knew about this matter, but he didn't say much and continued to pretend not to know.

The Prime Minister's Mansion of the State of Qi.

Wu Zixu held an enlarged meeting.

The purpose of this meeting was to fully implement the new tax and monetary policies before the Pingbei army, the Pingnan army, and the Pingxi army returned to Linzi.

As the pioneer of the tax reform, Ran Qiu took the lead in expressing his own statement at the meeting, and everyone knew more or less about the tax reform, but when they heard the intensity of the reform, they were all shocked.

Dazong Lu Qing was even more pale and said, "Xiangguo, does the king know about this?" ”

Wu Zixu said: "The monarch kept a funeral and handed over the big government to me, since it was handed over to me, I have the right to strengthen the family business for the monarch!" ”

"Now you know the situation today, if we don't enrich the country and strengthen the army, we will be defeated by the enemy, and if we are defeated, we will be swallowed up by the enemy and killed by the enemy!"

"I, Wu Zixu, can die and be defeated, but the Qi country, the monarch's Qi country, will never be allowed to be defeated, annexed by the enemy, and killed by the enemy!"

Wu Zixu's words were sonorous, and everyone in the hall was boiling with anger.

When the great sect Lu Qing heard this, he stopped talking, and those doctors at all levels who originally had the same mentality as Lu Qing took a deep breath when they heard Wu Zixu's words, and scolded secretly, how could this be the case in this world?

Obviously, these people are the conservative forces of the Prime Minister's government, and they are unwilling to reform.

Wu Zixu looked around at everyone and said: "I, Wu Zixu, know that many of you are reluctant to pick up a sword and cut meat on yourself, but if we don't take the lead in cutting meat, how can those local doctors be willing?" ”

The crowd was silent.

Just when the atmosphere was a little awkward, Lu Qing took the lead in standing up and said: "Xiangguo, my Lu clan is willing to obey orders."

"Reform and taxation start with the public family!"

As soon as these words came out, many doctors in the hall were in an uproar.

They thought that the main purpose of this reform was to "strengthen the weak branches" and strengthen the power of the clan, after all, the example of the Jin State was placed there, but now that the clan took the lead in expressing its stance on cutting meat, then the matter was by no means as simple as they thought.

"I, Pu Yuhou, am willing to implement the new tax policy in my fiefdom," Assistant Minister Pu Yuhou stood up tremblingly, and made the second statement.

Pu Yu waited for him, and Yu Ying also expressed his position on his own behalf that he was willing to implement a new tax policy in his fiefdom.

Then Ji Ran and others expressed their willingness to implement the new tax policy in their fiefdoms.

At this time, there were only five or six doctors left in the hall who did not speak, they looked at each other, and finally reluctantly stood up and agreed.

Wu Zixu saw that the first thing was solved, so he said the second thing, which was about monetary reform.

Wu Zixu didn't speak, but clapped his hands, and everyone didn't understand what Wu Zixu wanted to do, so they just looked at him suspiciously.

At this time, three large boxes were carried in by six soldiers and placed in the center of the hall.

Wu Zixu stepped down from his seat, came to the big box, and opened a big box in front of his head, which was a dazzling big Qi Tongbao.

Then he opened a second large chest, and inside was a dazzling golden mang.

Everyone was taken aback and stood up one after another, and a doctor on the spot couldn't help it and went up to check in the box.

The doctor shuddered and took the strange shape of the golden thing, then bit it with his teeth, then jumped three feet high, and exclaimed, "It's gold, it's gold, real gold!" ”
