Chapter 393: Which Bastard

Putting a mind on the family, carrying the burden of the family alone, and being exhausted day and night, is not that Miss likes to calculate, but in addition to this, Miss does not know what else to do in that attic alone.

Only Cai Qiao knows that before leaving the cabinet, Cai Wei was also an innocent and lively girl, who could laugh and make trouble, without a zombie face, not cold all day long, without anger when he spoke, and could also express the dissatisfaction in his heart with anger and the happiness in his heart with a smile.

Marrying an old man for the sake of family glory is the life of a young girl.

Ten years later, Liu Biao died, and the young lady was charged with murder and marriage with the enemy, in fact, including the Cai family, they already looked down on her, just because she repeatedly saved the family from danger and brought new prosperity, so she didn't say anything.

But Cai Wei couldn't feel it, after leaving the pastoral mansion, she still stayed alone in the small attic, she was already numb to the views of others, but happiness was too far away from herself, and she was disheartened.

For ten years, Cai Wei has been putting on her own makeup, because she is afraid of passing her youth in the dark like this, never blooming, and sneaking away between her fingers.

With the passage of year by year, every birthday, Cai Wei will become extremely irritable, how many years, Cai Wei has never had a birthday, once Liu Biao doted on, to live for her, Cai Wei, who has always been calm as a stagnant water, lost his temper, at that time the hall was full of guests, including Liu Biao's valued literati and ink writers, Liu Biao was very embarrassed, and never mentioned it again.

Only Cai Qiao saw all this, and only she knew best how much suffering the young lady had suffered. What's going on in my mind.

and be misunderstood for how vicious she is. The young lady has been silently suffering. I don't know when I'll get rid of it, is it going to end Miss's life like this? Isn't that too cruel?

In the past ten years, the only thing that made Cai Qiao happy and unexpected was only three times, the rebellion of the Xiangyang clan was suppressed, and Cai Wei quietly celebrated a birthday, but after the birthday, the young lady suddenly cried. cried all night, it was the first time in ten years that Cai Qiao saw Miss really cry.

The second time was the four imperial examinations held in Jingzhou, the chaos in Jingzhou was pacified, and the Cai family was all punished, Cai Wei did not cry, but built a mourning hall, knelt on the ground and looked at the names on the tablet, as if he had guarded a naughty child for a long time, disobedient and drowning.

At that time, Cai Qiao was very surprised. Cai Qiao knows that Cai Hao has been in the past ten years. has always put the family first, for the sake of the family, everything can be ignored, originally Cai Qiao thought that after the family was destroyed, Cai Wei, who was spared, would be grief-stricken and even committed suicide.

But Cai Wei didn't, from beginning to end, not a single tear flowed, that kind of expression, as if Liu Biao had died.

And when the four imperial examinations were held, Cai Qiao saw that the young lady gave up the mourning hall and began to concentrate on preparing for the exam, reading books and doing questions every day, and even went to Cuizhou Pingfu to ask for experience.

In the past, Cai Wei was also so serious when he was making suggestions for the Cai family, but Cai Qiao could detect the difference, and for the family, Cai Wei was driven by a numb tendency, in order to find a little purpose for his existence.

And to participate in the four imperial examinations, Cai Wei is willing from the heart, and this willingness is shown on his face, that is, he is serious and a little angry, not numb.

When he won the first place, Cai Qiao saw a smile on Cai Wei's face, and he smiled naturally, no longer the smile that made people's hearts freeze before, as if the innocent and lively young lady more than ten years ago came back little by little.

The third time, when Cai Wei began to calculate the Yong family, Cai Qiao obviously felt that Cai Wei had done his best to plan for the Cai family, and then Cai Qiao finally knew that the Cai family, an object that Cai Wei had maintained for more than ten years, was replaced by another.

And if Cai Wei can do this, how can it be revenge?

It's just that Cai Qiao can't understand why Cai Hao is willing to help Liu Zhang, and why doesn't he defend himself?

Liu Zhang held Cai Wei's shoulder, sat down beside Cai Wei, and said slowly: "The Yongjia family was attacked, the four counties were all opposed, and now there is chaos in southern Xinjiang, Yu'er, give me a reason for you to do this." ”

Cai Wei lay on the table and cried for a long time, her voice gradually disappeared, only her body trembled slightly, and Liu Zhang gently hugged her waist, "If you really want revenge, you just need to say it again, and I will believe it." ”

"The Southwest Silk Road, through Yongchang, Jianning, Qiqi, around Yuejun, out of the southwest, countless barbarians in the middle, a lot of villages, and the Yongjia have the same non-dividing people who want more, the four counties of the wealthy family, the Yongjia is the biggest, the Yongjia is broken, the other three counties of the wealthy family rabbit dead fox sad, will be angry and rebel."

Cai Wei's voice came from under the table, with a little sobbing, and the voice was clear.

Liu Zhang breathed a sigh of relief.

"What about rebellion?"

"Just catch them all."

"But the sum of the troops of the three counties is as much as fifty or sixty thousand, plus Jianning was originally the land of the Yongjia, it is difficult for the Sichuan army to gain a foothold, if you want to defeat, how many troops need to be used, how much grain and grass is consumed, have you thought about it?"

"I've thought about it, but if you want to take care of this, break off the idea of Nanyi as soon as possible."

Cai Wei looked up at Liu Zhang, and said steadily, Liu Zhang couldn't help but stagnate.

Cai Wei said: "Only by exhausting the four counties can the roads in Yizhou be unimpeded, otherwise, the hidden dangers of the four counties are still there, and the government decree will not work, even if it is opened, the businessman will not only be extracted from the road tax, forced to give profits, and the life of the family is even more difficult to protect, who will live from this?"

Didn't you see that now the warlords of Liangzhou do not obey the king, not only the merchants cannot get through, but even the Western Regions are gradually out of the control of the Han court? ”

Liu Zhang looked at Cai Wei's face, and tears blurred all the makeup on his face, with some sadness and disappointment.

"Yu'er, I originally thought that you would only calculate, but I didn't expect you to have such knowledge, but the wealthy clan of the four counties is not so easy to catch them all, even if Fa Zheng can defeat the army of the four counties this time, the wealthy clan of the four counties has been hit hard, but we are helpless to hide back to our hometown where the mountains are high and the road is dangerous."

Liu Zhang gently wiped the tears on Cai Wei's face.

"What's so hard?" Cai Wei let Liu Zhang's fingers wipe on his smooth face, and said disdainfully: "Separate them with soldiers, lure them with profits, cut off their lifeblood, and the four counties will be self-defeating." ”

"Oh?" Liu Zhang was curious: "How to break the law?" Let's be specific. ”

"The road of the four counties, the road section of Yongchang is less, the base surface of the choice is relatively flat, has been opened, only the middle section of the front section of Jianning, the span is the largest, the highest difficulty, so it was finally built, now even the most difficult middle section of Jianning has been repaired, the Yongjia was destroyed, as long as the soldiers of the four counties are defeated, the Silk Road will be able to go out of the southwest.

The so-called separation by soldiers, is to capture the four counties of the important cities, the Hao clan relies on the deep mountains and old forests, for this, the Sichuan army is as easy as a hand, and then use the troops to guard the city, guard the plank road, and restrict the entry and exit of the four county Hao clans.

This is to cut off the wealthy family geographically.

In order to lure it, it is to set up a mutual market next to the city and the plank road, obey the orders of the pastoral government in everything, and oppose the rich clan's earthen villages, satisfied, and commoners, can sell mountain specialties, and at the same time buy salt and iron tools.

This is to cut off the wealthy family from the hearts of the people.

The lifeblood of the river is the lifeline, which refers to the water, and the three rivers are all flowing, and the lord can either block the river and build a dam, or the river can be diverted, and the people in the deep mountains will be drought, flooded every year, and the prey will not work, and the livestock will not survive.

The four counties were already poor, hungry, fighting with the sky and the earth, and countless people died every year, if the disaster is added, the people will inevitably be miserable, if the people who respect the order of the pastoral government, they can move to the city controlled by the Sichuan army to live, otherwise, they should die on the road.

In this way, the Hao clan will fall apart, if not completely annihilated, and. Cai Wei's eyes showed a cold light: "I don't believe that the forces under the Hao clan are so obedient, the people take food as the sky, and the Hao clan makes them not have enough to eat, and then the lord only needs to sit at home and wait for someone to offer the head of the hero." ”

Only then did Liu Zhang discover that Cai Wei's personality had not changed, and his heart was really vicious.

"Barrage and dam, three rivers diversion, this is a big project, and it can't be immediate, how much food does the army have to consume every year to guard the four county cities and plank roads?"

"I don't understand." Cai Wei looked at Liu Zhang and said unceremoniously: "I don't understand at all now which bastard insisted on opening the Southwest Silk Road in the first place. ”

It's so powerful snickering on the side, Liu Zhang's face is embarrassed, isn't this bastard himself?

Cai Wei said: "I just want to ask that bastard, was there a lack of roots and tendons at the beginning, since the Silk Road is to be opened, the cost of the four counties is indispensable, the so-called city plank road garrison, has been the grain and grass consumption of the defenders in southern Xinjiang, must be within the budget for the opening of the Silk Road."

Does this bastard think that the opening of the Silk Road is just to build roads?

At the beginning, Emperor Xiaowu opened the southwest Yi, although he did not succeed, but at least he also destroyed the barbarian countries, set up the Han County, and laid the foundation for the main public access to the southwest Yi from the geographical name of the people. Withdraw all the people as soon as possible, and build a great wall outside Ba County. ”

Liu Zhang was almost amused by Cai Wei's angry expression, but after thinking about it, these difficulties were expected at the beginning, but when it really happened, he began to be reluctant to break the good situation of Jing Yi's recuperation, and just wanted to get by.

However, is it really possible to build roads while appeasing the wealthy family, and will it really be peaceful for a long time? The use of force is a quick knife to cut through the mess and appease, that is a chronic poison.

Now that I think about it, Cai Wei's approach should be rational, but that kind of surgical colic is difficult for a weak patient to accept.

Cai Wei continued: "I probably expect that the time we will garrison will not exceed the time when the Southwest Silk Road is actually opened, that is to say, when we open the Southwest Silk Road, the four counties have been pacified, which is the best result.

If the lord wants to use something to recuperate and recuperate, and it is not appropriate to make a big deal to deny it, then it is better to immediately abandon the plan to open the Silk Road. (To be continued.) )
