MTL - Fight the Giants-Chapter 913 attack
After the unification of Emperor Taizu, the old system of the previous dynasty was followed, and the system of chieftains in the southwest and northwest was retained. The native officials were used to govern the native people, and the local barbarian chiefs governed the area under their jurisdiction. They acted as native officials and hereditary.
The imperial court stipulated that all chieftains were required to pay a tribute for three years, and at the same time go to Beijing to appeal their posts to investigate their governance of the jurisdiction.
This dynasty pursues the policy of giving generously and receiving lightly. After the chieftains pay tribute, the imperial court will return gifts, which are often generous gifts. There are often many chieftains who come to Beijing frequently for generous gifts. The imperial court generally allowed the chieftains in various places to govern on their own, without interfering too much.
Even many chieftains annexed land seriously.
There are often chieftains who have poor governance and heavy taxes, so that the natives flee. In addition, the Yi tribes often rebelled, and the imperial court would send troops to conquer them, and in serious cases, the Sizhi would be abolished.
In order to maintain the stability of the Yunnan frontier situation, regarding the evidence presented by Mu Yan, Emperor Yongkang only decreed that Udai should be expelled from the nobility and replaced by others, but did not abolish Udai's hereditary chieftain position.
But Udai was used to being the emperor of the land in Pingzhao, how could he accept such a decree, so he threw the imperial decree to the ground on the spot.
"Udai, the emperor has given you a special kindness to the Wu family, you should be satisfied!" Mu Yan said to Udai, protecting the officials who came to pass the decree.
"I know a lot of shit! I, Wushi, can't manage this place for hundreds of years, and the court is nothing! When I was the elder brother, the Wu dynasty ruled the world, and the one named Zhu was still herding cattle for the landlords!"
"Presumptuous!" Mu Yan and the officials who delivered the decree shouted in unison, and the two sons beside Udai also held him back.
Udai waved them away with both hands, panted heavily, and pointed at Mu Yan: "Son Mu, you must have stabbed the knife in the back! You must have blown the emperor's wind! You are jealous of my eldest son-in-law and want to clear things for yourself. the way!"
Mu Yan sneered, "Your majesty is wise and mighty. I'm just a little courtier. How can I influence the emperor's mind. Besides, I'm already the heir of Duke Qian, who was proclaimed by the emperor. How can I make peace? Who can stand in my way?" No? You underestimated me, and even overestimated your eldest son-in-law."
"Did I underestimate you?" Udai glanced up and down at Mu Yan, "Didn't I underestimate you. I didn't expect that your life was so hard that you survived the interception."
"You actually intercepted and killed Mu Shizi?" The decree official was greatly surprised, "Mu Shizi was appointed by the emperor himself, and you actually violated the order. You are a big treason!"
Uday said casually, "Who saw me intercept him? Is there any evidence?"
"Of course there is evidence. But this is a personal grievance between the two of us, and I will settle it with you in the future. You allowed your relatives to wantonly occupy the land of other chieftains, and imposed harsh taxes internally, resulting in a large loss of natives in your jurisdiction. You also privately manufactured weapons, often fought large-scale battles with neighboring natives, and privately dug silver mines, one by one, leaving you the hereditary title of Ushio is the emperor's kindness."
The official who delivered the decree had picked up the imperial decree and carefully swept the dust off it.
Nodded: "Udai, you are incapable of governing. According to the crimes you committed, you should attack. The emperor thought of your eldest son who was still paying tribute in the capital at this time. It is a big deal to think of him and only resign from your position." show mercy."
Holding the imperial edict aloft: "Uday, you still haven't accepted the edict!"
"Accept the order!" As soon as he heard the order, Uday became angry, and at the same time raised his voice, "Come on!"
A moment later, hundreds of guards quickly surrounded Chao Mu Yan and the decree officials.
"Udai, don't you want to rebel?" Mu Yan asked him in a cold voice with a group of messengers behind him.
"Whatever you say is what you say. It is impossible for me to take over this order today. This mansion is all my people, and I only took you down. Without anyone noticing, who knows in which valley you came out?" Accident."
The more Uday talked, the more he felt that what he said was reasonable.
Killed these people in front of him, who knew he did it. When the emperor sends someone to investigate, the sky is high and the road is far away, and he will come up with a countermeasure by then.
And... he glanced up and down at Mu Yan, and killed Mu Yan, who was an eyesore, he felt great joy in his heart.
Seeing hundreds of people surrounding him, he still looked calm before the collapse of Mount Tai, and could not help but click his tongue to express his regret.
Raising his hand, just about to get someone to do it, Mu Yan said calmly: "Uday, as long as you give an order, the matter will be pushed to the point of no return. Are you sure you want to do this?"
"I'm very sure." Uday looked arrogant, waved his hand down, and hundreds of guards approached Mu Yan and others.
"Very good. There is a way to heaven and you don't go, but there is no way to **** and you just rush in."
Mu Yan finished speaking, and raised **** to make a gesture. Dozens of archers immediately stood up on the surrounding roofs, bent their bows and set arrows, aiming at Uday and his descendants.
Udai's wives, concubines and grandchildren screamed again and again, squeezing and running to hide behind Udai. Udai was taken aback, and looked around, but he didn't know that the surname Mu had already prepared a second move.
Hate filled his chest: "Those surnamed Mu, don't bully others too much!"
"I'm just self-defense. The emperor's imperial envoys have come thousands of miles away, and you want to hunt them down on the spot to create the illusion of an accident. Don't blame me for being ungrateful before you."
Commanded behind him, "Do it!"
The second-class people from Yikan immediately jumped towards Uday and the others, and took him and his family members down in just a moment.
"Udai was a rebel, despised the emperor's favor, and passed on the emperor's will. Udai went to the noble, confiscated his family property, and was escorted to Kuncheng for trial."
"Yes!" Then another team of guards rushed in. Uday screamed and struggled, and the other wives, concubines, and grandchildren also cried and shouted, but no one cared.
The news spread to Kuncheng immediately.
Wu Su angrily brought people to the side courtyard of the big house, looking for Huo Xi's theory. He was stopped outside the courtyard by Zhufeng and others.
"Surnamed Zhang, you come out! You dare to do something to my father, go to my family's title, I am at odds with you! You come out! I will not be a man if I don't tear you apart today!"
Desperately trying to rush in, he got into a fight with Zhuifeng Gansan and others.
But how can they be the opponents of Zhufeng and others. He didn't do anything to her, he just took someone to keep her group away from the outside.
"Zhang, you come out! You come out! Bastards! How dare you do evil things, I will never let you go!"
Huo Xi had already known that Mu Yan was going to deal with Udai, and had already sent a secret letter to the emperor of Peking. He also expected that Wusu would come to her to argue, so he just stayed in the courtyard and didn't intend to pay attention to it.
Self-doing evil nothing more.
Wusu was quickly called back by Qian Guogong. And Mu Zhan has brought people to Pingzhao to inquire about the news.
Wusu left the mansion that day and returned to Pingzhao.
After Wu Su left, Duke Qian called Huo Xi to the study.
Duke Qian Guo didn't know anything about the fact that the imperial concubine sent an edict official. Udai is Pingzhao chieftain, and he is considered to be the top chieftain among all the chieftains in Yunnan. He has many territories under his jurisdiction and many native people. He is also his in-laws, and the two families have been on good terms these years.
But Mu Yan caught him off guard.
