MTL - Fight the Giants-Chapter 829 and by him

  Hearing Huo Xi ask about the imperial green, Mu Yan shook his head, "Not so fast."

  Dian is thousands of miles away from Beiping, and the road is difficult to travel in winter, so it was not delivered to the emperor so quickly.

  Thinking of such a big piece of jade, Mu Zhan's light words would be regarded as his gift to the emperor for the Longevity Festival, Mu Yan is still panicking now.

  Go to the study, call a group of subordinates, and tell them to move faster to get the jade mine in Mu Zhan's hand. Only by cutting off the biggest source of wealth in Mu Zhan's hands can he dispel his anger.

  The next day, the day the yamen opened its seal. The meeting hall of the Mu Mansion was also reopened.

  Mu Yan found that Mu Zhan had changed, not only became smarter, but also more resourceful.

  If he said that before he was just dissatisfied with the fact that he had divided his attention, he actually had a more or less casual attitude towards himself, and didn't take himself seriously. I feel that I will leave Yunnan at any time, and all I get is nothing but the moon in the mirror. Don't bother to fight too much.

  But today, Mu Zhan has become interested.

Hearing that Duke Qian asked Mu Yan to continue to work in the army, he also volunteered, "Father, I went to visit my father-in-law's house in the middle of the year. I heard that various chieftains have some opinions on the continued hoarding of land in the guard. To avoid turmoil, father will take a look. Do you want to send people to the chieftains to appease them?"

  Mu Yan glanced at him and remained calm. His eyes were only on the officials and Mu Liao in the meeting hall.

  Everyone in the hall was stunned when they heard the words, and raised their eyes to look at the eldest son and the eldest son. Eyes collided with Mu Yan, and then avoided.

  Gong Qian thought for a moment, looked at Mu Ang, and asked, "Then who do you think should be sent to appease?"

   "It is most suitable for the second brother to go. It's just that the second brother is going to work in the army..." Mu Zhan paused as he spoke, his eyes swept across the hall, "Why not let the third uncle go."

   "It's not suitable for me to go." Mu Ang declined.

Just thinking about it in his heart, he heard his eldest son Mu Xi quickly reply: "In the past, the mediation of the disputes between the chieftains has always been handled by the eldest brother. How to mediate the conflicts between the chieftains, the eldest brother also has more experience. Since the second brother smokes If you don't leave, why don't you let me go with elder brother."

  The fourth brother wants to accompany the second brother to work in the army, and share the third room, so he is so far behind Mu Jun because of his status as a concubine? He is still the eldest son.

  Looked at Qian Guogong, hoping that he would agree.

  Gong Qian glanced at everyone again, "What do you think?"

  The bureaucrats felt a little embarrassed. Originally, the son was in Yunnan, and the affairs of the army, as well as coordinating the affairs of the chieftains, should be handled by the son himself or arranged by the son. Others intervened, somewhat coveting.

   Of course, if the son is not there, it is another matter.

  Seeing that no one spoke for a while, Mu Zhan frowned, and scanned the subordinate officials and Mu Liao.

Then a subordinate official said: "Master returning to the country, the subordinate officials feel that appeasing the chieftain is a serious matter. If the son cannot be separated, the eldest son should take someone to deal with it. Others are not enough. If the chieftains are dissatisfied, they will Not to mention exacerbating the conflict, it will take more time to mediate in the future. If there is another chieftain rebellion, the capital may issue an order to reprimand the Mu family for not doing enough to appease them."

  After the words fell, some subordinate officials and Mu Liao agreed one after another.

   "Then..." Qian Guogong said hesitantly. I was afraid of seeing the cold eyes of my own son again.

  Mu Yan looked at Qian Guogong, "To appease the chieftain is the current priority, and Brother Lao will go on behalf of the Mu family and the court."

  Gong Qian gave him a surprised look.

   thought he was going to assign an official or subordinate he trusted to deal with it. Unexpectedly, Qing Piao Piao would push the matter to Mu Zhan with a single sentence. Compared with Mu Zhan's eagerness to keep the authority in his hands, this adopted son seems to be more generous?

   Or is he more confident? Everything under control?

   Duke Qian couldn't see through this son for a while.

   "Then Mu Zhan will go."

   "Second Uncle, I'll ask for instructions to go with elder brother." Mu Xi hurriedly said.

  Going to various Tusi mansions to appease him is what he is most happy to do. Although it was a bumpy journey, when he arrived at the chieftain's mansion, he was carefully arranged, so he didn't have to worry about everything, he had good food and spicy food, and he didn't have to listen to his old father's nagging, and he could be recorded in the honor book.

   Isn't it fun?

   After the morning meeting, Mu Yan went back to the study. A group of subordinates and Mu Liao gathered together.

   "My son, this matter should not be left to the eldest son."

   "Yes." All Mu Liao nodded in agreement.

  Even if the eldest son can't go in person, it's better to assign a crony to handle it than to leave the errand to the eldest son. Although the labor force is more important, it is even more important to maintain the chieftain's mansion.

  Mu Yan shook his head, "This morning's meeting, as you can see, Mu Zhan is bound to win. Instead of trying to fight him for this, it's better to plan slowly."

  The Tusi Mansion and the Tusi system have existed for nearly a thousand years, and there are many conflicts with the local government, the Tusi, and their own clansmen, which cannot be resolved overnight.

  The Wei Dynasty was for the unification of the country and the stability of the people's livelihood. It still followed the hereditary chieftain system in the past, allowing the chieftains in various places to have their own territories and manage their own people. The court still focused on recruiting and controlling barbarians.

   Moreover, the imperial court treated Yunnan Tusi Mansion favorably, not to mention a tribute for three years, but also generously.

  I heard that some chieftains often went to Beijing to receive rewards in order to get generous rewards from the imperial court.

  Because of the court's generous treatment of the chieftain's government, some chieftains ignored local management, and land annexation intensified. The big and small chieftains continued to fight for land and hatred, and the same was true among their own clansmen.

  The land was occupied by chieftains, and the natives had a difficult life. They either seized other barbarians or Han people, or colluded with each other to cause chaos.

   There are constant disputes among chieftains, internal disputes between chieftains, conflicts between natives and natives, and conflicts between natives and Han people.

  When the native people fled due to survival difficulties, the chieftain's ineffective governance would affect the taxation, and the imperial court would issue a decree to reprimand, and the Mu family would inevitably be responsible for ineffective recruitment.

   "The conflicts between chieftains in various places can't be resolved these years, which shows that Mu Zhan's method is useless." Mu Yan said leisurely.

  In order to win over the chieftains, Mu Zhan only mixes mud between the chieftains. He also prefers to help the big chieftain. It will only exacerbate the conflict.

"We don't need to argue with Mu Zhan on this matter, and let him do it. This time the guards hoarding land is the military system established by the old Hou Ye, and it was approved by the imperial court. And I told the guards everywhere not to invade the people Land. They don’t dare to commit crimes. There are chieftains who are dissatisfied, but they have a big appetite.”

  Treat the common people's land as their own, and take the court's favor as a matter of course.

   "Leave him alone."

"yes."

   Mu Yan left again. Busy with the army, inspecting military affairs. Although he didn't say anything, he acted like nothing happened, but Huo Xi knew that he had a grudge against Mu Zhan for cheating him, secretly thinking about revenge. Moreover, he had to avenge everything he encountered during his military service years ago.

   Husband and wife are one body, husband and wife are honored, Huo Xi wants to help him.

   "Send the message to the caravan going to Xifan in the year to see what's going on with them?"

   "Send someone to inquire about the operation of the shops under Jun's name."

   Within a few days, the shopkeeper of Jun’s Cloth Shop found that after the first month of the previous year, the cloth shop’s inventory was almost sold out, and the newly purchased goods were already on the way. But now, things are quite different from the past.
