Great Qin's son-in-law

Chapter 496 Mergers are not limited to fields, they also exist among nobles! (fourth more)

Fan Kuai raised his head subconsciously.

But he felt his body being lifted up.

Fan Kuai rolled his eyes, knowing that things might have changed, he couldn't help being happy.

aside.

A Qin soldier was whispering something to the chief minister, but the chief minister who had ordered the soldiers to kill Fan Kui in front of him was frowning at this moment, looking at Fan Kui with suspicion and vigilance.

Pause for a moment.

The elder said: "Young Master Shi has an order to bring this person over."

The soldiers on the side promised.

Then he took Fan Kui to the car where Qin Luoheng was.

Inside the car, Qin Luoheng tapped the table with his fingertips. He must have heard what happened in front of the army, but when he heard that the person blocking him was Fan Kuai, he couldn't help showing a strange look in his eyes.

Of course he knew about Fan Kuai.

He just didn't expect to meet in this form.

Can't help but smile.

Hearing that Fan Kui had been escorted to the front of the car, Qin Luoheng laughed lightly, got up and got out of the car as well.

outside the car.

Fan Kuai's arms were tightly pressed, and he couldn't move at all.

Qin Luoheng waved his hand.

Lightly said:
"Second and third son, let go."

"This strong man is indeed Liu Ji's man, and Liu Ji did obey my orders."

heard.

Several soldiers looked at each other with hesitation in their eyes.

Finally, he let go of the hand holding his arm.

Qin Luoheng walked up to Fan Kui and looked at Fan Kui carefully. Fan Kui was not as powerful as he imagined, and he was not as strong as he was portrayed in TV dramas. But it's good and limited, after all, he is only earning scattered money.

Qin Luoheng said indifferently: "Did Pavilion Chief Liu send you here?"

Fan Kui nodded vigorously.

Said: "It was Liu San. Liu Ji who asked me to come, and he asked me to deliver a letter to the young master."

Done.

Fan Kuai took out a piece of wood from his bosom.

This piece of wood is not square, and the writing on it is also rather scribbled, but I can barely recognize what is written on it.

Qin Luoheng reached out to take it.

Then he ordered around: "Come here, go and equip the strong man with clean clothes, prepare some light food, and then fetch a pot of wine for the strong man."

heard.

Fan Kuai's face changed slightly.

Hastily said: "My lord, I'm on the left, I'm not worth it, my lord."

Qin Luoheng said in a deep voice: "You delivered the letter for me, but you almost died here because of my mistake. Compared with what happened to the strong man, what are these food and clothing?"

"These should be my apology to the strong man."

"A strong man should not refuse."

Fan Kuai's face changed again and again, and he secretly glanced at Qin Luoheng's face, and was sure that Qin Luoheng was not joking, so he secretly heaved a sigh of relief, imitating the salute of the soldiers in front, bowed respectfully, grinned and said: "Then thank you, my lord."

Qin Luoheng smiled brightly, and asked his attendants to take Fan Kuai down to change clothes.

After Fan Kui left, Qin Luoheng returned to the car with a piece of wood in his hand, read the letter written by Liu Ji, and handed it to Meng Yi.

Let's see.

Meng Yi frowned.

He said in a concentrated voice: "According to what the pavilion chief said, the three major clans have long been aware of the court's actions, and even reached an agreement with the nobles of the Chu region. In the past few days, they have begun to flee in groups. The clan is also very cunning, after leaving the city, it was directly broken into pieces, which made the pavilion chief fall into a doppelganger."

Qin Luoheng said lightly:

"It is inevitable that the three major clans will have this reaction."

"After all, the clan is the root of the glory of the nobles. In order to continue their own temples, the three major clans will definitely compromise with other nobles and officials. It just depends on how much they can save in the end."

"In fact, I never thought that the nobles of Chu would be so generous that they would release dozens of people from the three major clans."

"And the three major clans may have made preparations long ago, using a large number of ox carts and horse-drawn carts to cover up the truth and make it difficult for people to guess the authenticity, thereby increasing the chances of the three major clans escaping from existence."

"Liu Ji is a smart man."

"It's just that he probably didn't expect that the Chu nobles would be so merciful."

"As a result, it is not well prepared, and it is difficult to follow up thoroughly."

Meng Yi nodded.

There was also a look of seriousness in his eyes.

Worryingly said: "Now the escaped part of the three major clans is divided into at least a dozen routes, and the routes are different. Even if we divide our troops to arrest them now, it may be difficult to capture them all."

"My lord, what should I do?"

Qin Luoheng's eyes darkened slightly.

He looked at the wood chips placed on the table.

After thinking for a moment, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He said lightly: "Liu Ji, haven't you already given us countermeasures?"

Meng Yi was taken aback.

He looked at the bamboo piece again.

There was a puzzled look in his eyes, why did Liu Ji give any countermeasures?
In Liu Ji's letter, he only talked about the current situation and what he was going to do in the past two days. Even if Liu Ji's plan was successful, Qu Bo and others were willing to confess and tell the truth about the escape of the three major clans. With their current strength, they may only be able to catch some of them.

How can this bring all the three major clans to justice?
Qin Luoheng glanced at the wood chips.

Lightly said:
"Liu Ji did give a solution."

"Meng Zuojian, don't you think the behavior of the nobles of the Chu Kingdom is a bit strange?"

"When did the nobles of the Chu Kingdom become so friendly? And it is clear that they pushed the three major clans into a desperate situation, but it is also their kindness that allowed the three major clans to escape so many people. Isn't this contradictory? "

heard.

Meng Yi was taken aback.

After a little thought, I also understood the problem.

This time, the three major clans were forced to a dead end by the nobles of the Chu land. They feared that they would hate the nobles of the Chu land to the bone. Even he could see this clearly. How could the nobles of the Chu land not know?
so.
This is probably done intentionally by the nobles of Chu.

Meng Yi said in a deep voice: "This is intentional by the nobles of Chu, just to let the three major clans relax their vigilance, but this is not right, the two sides have torn faces this time, if someone from the three major clans really escapes, they In the past, after all, he was born in the Duke family of Chu, and he has a certain relationship with the other five places, even Guanzhong, so it may not be impossible to recover by then."

"It is impossible for the nobles of Chu to let go of those who escaped."

"They will definitely choose to kill the grass."

Qin Luoheng nodded and said:

"This should actually be a spoilsport."

"The three major clans will definitely be ransacked by Da Qin, so as long as the three major clans are not completely broken, they will never give up their hundreds of years of savings to Da Qin. Therefore, the most likely thing they will do is to let the clan The younger generation fled with these savings."

"Those ox carts and horse carts contain a lot of money."

"But there are also many and few."

"So this is actually a gamble. Whichever nobleman gambles right can easily keep these goods in his pocket, but if he gambles wrong, he will get nothing."

"The three major clans probably already know what the Chu nobles are thinking."

"They will never be content to be fish and meat."

"Even if the entire army is really wiped out, they will make other nobles feel uncomfortable. What's more, the three major clans will make the nobles of Chu land a little bit tied. After all, they have to rely on themselves to grab the goods. The ones obtained by each family are different, which will inevitably make some nobles feel uneasy."

Speaking of which.

Qin Luoheng couldn't help shaking his head.

The internal strife in Chu is really enduring.

Even if his own ancestral temple is in danger, it must make other nobles feel uncomfortable.

Meng Yi sneered and said: "If the Chu land can really unite as one, it wouldn't have been defeated in the past, and it would have been defeated like a mountain and completely lost resistance."

"It's just that the actions of the three major clans are beneficial to Daqin."

Qin Luoheng shook his head.

Said:

"uncertain."

"The three major clans and the nobles of Chu have their own schemes."

"But their plans are actually different. The three major clans plan to preserve the ancestral temple and continue the family, while the nobles of Chu want to annex the wealth of the three major clans. Of course, the three major clans put other nobles together, but as long as the Chu land takes the lead The few big nobles who are here are not at a disadvantage, and they can't make much trouble."

"even."

"If the negotiation is good, the big nobles such as the Xiang family, the Song family, and the Tang family can wipe out the three major clans, while the small nobles have nothing to gain. And if I guessed correctly, this situation is probably the same. The Xiang family and several other big nobles deliberately facilitated it."

"Why?" Meng Yi was a little puzzled.

In his opinion, this is clearly creating internal strife among the nobles of the Chu region. After all, it involves interests, and there will inevitably be uneven distribution of spoils. Isn't it creating chaos and weakening the strength of the nobles of the Chu region?

Qin Luoheng's eyes were piercing.

In a cold voice:
"You underestimate Xiang and other nobles too much."

"And do you really think that nobles like the Xiang family just want to annex the property of the three major clans? Their appetite and ambition are far greater than your imagination."

"The world knows that the land is annexed."

"But I don't know that the nobles are also prey to the strong."

"The three major clans are the meat on the chopping board. I am afraid that they have been allocated in secret, but it is another agreement reached on the surface. If I follow my previous thinking, the nobles of Chu will only release a small amount of the three major clans. If people from the clan come out, the loot will undoubtedly be divided according to the ostensible agreement."

"Equal exposure to rain and dew may seem reasonable, but it is actually a delusion."

"The Xiang, Song and other clans cannot agree."

"They want the strong to take all!"

"In order to coerce the three major clans to compromise, we had no choice but to retreat, but the dying struggle of the three major clans, coupled with the acquiescence of the Xiang family and other nobles, led to the current situation. This situation is similar to that of the Xiang family at the time. The promises made by the nobles to other semi-big nobles are not the same."

"It also means"

"They don't have to follow the original agreement."

"Even if other nobles dare to get their hands on the things of the three major clans, they will join hands to annex this noble. The big fish eat the small fish, and the small fish eat shrimps. Now the Xiang clan and other clans are dissatisfied with the status quo, and they have begun to take advantage of the situation. The three major clans have intentionally annexed other weak or weak nobles."

"This is not a good thing for Daqin."

Qin Luoheng's face was solemn.

He was keenly aware of this after reading Liu Ji's letter.

He is calculating.

The three major clans are also calculating.

And why didn't the nobles of Chu land not calculate?
The mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind.

They all now think they are squirrels, but who will be the last squirrel?
　The fifth update can't come anymore, and now my mind is a little confused.

　　Four tomorrow.

　　The first is today's fifth update.
