Chapter 601 Government Decree Adjustment

"Yes, Your Highness."

Fiji's excitement was beyond words to decide on appointing officials in the Qingzhou camp. These days he was annoyed by these idle officials.

But when he remembered something, he asked, "Your Highness, the official heard that even the nobles in Wei land would be confiscated this time, even those who are innocent, will have their property confiscated. I wonder if this is the case?"

"This is the case. This is the policy of dealing with the tyrants of the country three years ago." Xiao Ming nodded and waited for the following article in Fiji.

Fiji looked a little worried when he heard this. He said, "Your Highness, the officials thought that the policies of these three years ago were not suitable for Wei territory. This time, the Southern Expedition Army was able to capture the city of Wei territory so quickly, because the Southern Expedition Army had strong combat power, and the Secondly, the Your Highness promised to let go of the surrendered wealthy families. Now your Highness confiscate their property, but they are afraid that they will recur. In this way, the difficulty of governing Wei territory will greatly increase. Your Highness should not forget that today, the nobleman still has the wealthy families who have been robbed of the country."

"There is no such thing as Master Fei Ge said. It is not that Your Highness is unkind, but that after His Highness bypassed these wealthy families, they not only did not be grateful, but instead tried to murder His Highness. The wealthy families in Wei are more deeply rooted than those in the throne. If they do not eliminate evil, they will cause disaster in the future."

"Governor Niu is exactly what I am worried about. Compared with the number and power of the Wei land, the original wealthy families were just small and big witches. However, the confiscation of their property was just a part of their greedy people. What's wrong with this?" Xiao Ming said.

Fiji chuckled gently, and he said, "There are strong characters in the past few days when you have been with Your Highness. This is a good thing for a king, but it is easy to break. If Your Highness wants to become a virtuous lord, you must have both the strength of a tiger and the cunning of a fox."

Xiao Ming was stunned for a moment. Pang Yukun once said this, but he thought he had changed a lot, but he didn't expect that he still had this image in the eyes of Fiji.

"Old Fei Ge may as well say it straight."

Xiao Ming can still listen to unpleasant words, and Fiji is well-informed and has a deeper understanding of the Great Yu Kingdom than him, so he is willing to learn.

"The old minister is talking too much." Fiji pondered for a moment, and he said, "The main thing for Your Highness is not to suppress the rich family, and to end the domestic dispute and unify the Great Yu Kingdom. Although the wealthy family in Wei is still powerful, it can no longer threaten your highness. After all, the King of Wei cannot confront His Highness. Who can have this ability than the King of Wei?"

Xiao Ming nodded.

Fiji continued: "Since no one can threaten His Highness's rule over Wei, why should His Highness make enemies in Wei, so that a wealthy Wei will continue to fall into war and civil strife? Now His Highness is determined to the world and needs money, food and supporters. The wealthy families of the people of all generations are all fences. If the palace brings down the grace, they will become His Highness's minions. When His Highness conquers the world, the wealthy families in various vassal states will definitely not be defeated by death."

Niu Ben looked at Fiji, his expression was a bit complicated.

"The Xiaguan knew that His Highness was almost murdered by a wealthy family three years ago. However, the situation has changed. His Highness is not the weak His Highness back then. He also agreed with the matter of dealing with the tyrants of the tyrants three years ago. After all, internal and external troubles were at that time, and he could not leave hidden dangers in the tyrants." Fiji said.

"Then what Master Feige means is to let me win the support of the rich people?" Xiao Mingyin said that the most important thing for His Highness at present is to unify the Great Chongqing Kingdom, and Yin understood Fiji's idea.

"That is, the rich people of Wei land should be suppressed, but they must not be forced to rebel. In this way, Wei land can resume production quickly and become His Highness's granary."

Xiao Ming frowned and looked at Wei land on the sand table. The fiefdom with thirteen states was larger than his original fiefdom, and the number of people on the fiefdom was three times that of the six states.

As Fiji said, it would be a very troublesome thing to force the rich to rebel, because it means that the cost of managing Wei land will be greatly increased, and he will even need to draw some soldiers to suppress the rebellion.

In this way, he may fall into the quagmire of war and waste his national strength, which is extremely unfavorable to him, because the real enemy he faces is the vassal king.

When he resolved these vassal kings, there would be no separatist forces in the country. It would not be too late for him to resolve these tyrants.

However, putting it aside for the time being does not mean that he will not deal with it at all. Instead, he changed the method of boiling frogs in warm water. He looked at Fiji. He wanted to continue to test Fiji's ability, so he said, "Then tell me what to do?"

"First, the land was confiscated from the great families of each state and distributed it to the local people, and the property was confiscated, because these families were all firm supporters of the King of Wei, and their children in the family held official positions in the government office. Second, they curbed the middle-class families and joined forces with the small families. There were many such families. They depended on the local families, but they were resentful to the suppression of the great families, so their land and property could be partially confiscated. Third, some more open-minded and virtuous families in each state and county. Your Highness should appease them and win their support. In this way, the land of Wei can be settled." Fiji said with a smile.

Xiao Ming laughed at the moment and said to Fiji: "Has Mr. Fei Ge read any interesting books at the Bowen Academy these days?"

"His highness guessed it?" Fiji was a little embarrassed.

Xiao Ming said: "These books were written by this king, how can I not know? You are right. This time, I was a little negligent and did not formulate government orders on Wei land in time. However, it seems not too late now. I handed over the affairs of the Wei land wealthy family to Feige Lao. As you said, I need a stable and prosperous Wei land, not a war-torn Wei land."

Fiji breathed a lot of relief. Since he was scolded by Xiao Ming last time, he was studying hard in the doctoral academy, he gradually learned some magical policies.

This time he made a bold statement with the risk of being scolded, but this time he was right.

"Yes, Your Highness, the old minister will not let you down." Fiji said solemnly.

After his explanation from Fiji, Niu Ben gradually understood, and he said: "Old Feige is not a loss. If Wei is in harmony with the land affairs, the Southern Expedition Army would not have to be spent on Wei to suppress bandits."
