Don't panic, the family boss is busy farming

Chapter 444
Zhao Yu was not used to it at first, but thinking about the current situation and his awkward position, he resisted the discomfort and let himself adapt to Xu Yue's rhythm as soon as possible.

"Let's have a cup of tea. Drinking alcohol is not suitable for talking about things, as it is easy to cause trouble." Zhao Yu replied.

Xu Yue poured him a cup of tea soup prepared by Zhao Bei, and waited for Zhao Yu to take a sip before speaking.

"Honestly, none of us would want to go to war if it wasn't the only option left."

"There will be sacrifices in wars, and I don't want to see the excellent soldiers we have trained so hard die on the battlefield."

"Yu Gong, these are excellent talents that we spent a lot of money, material and energy to cultivate."

"Privately, I feel sorry for the short lives of these young people."

"So, regarding the established fact that the Xu family's army ruled Youzhou, as the former governor of Youzhou and the representative of the remnants of the feudal family, Zhao Yu, what do you think?"

I don't know if Xu Yue spoke too directly, or her tone was too confident, Zhao Yu was stunned for a while before she came to her senses.

He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but for a moment he didn't know how to tell Xu Yue.

This is typical of a plan being suddenly broken without a contingency plan in place.

Xu Yue quietly waited for him to organize his words.

Fortunately, behind Zhao Yu there were two advisors, Yan Rou and Qi Zhou, who were not the ones who faced Xu Yue directly, and the impact they felt was not as fierce as Zhao Yu, so they quickly reacted and rearranged Zhao Yu's thinking.

However, Zhao Yu had his own thoughts and waved his hand to signal Qi Zhou and Yan Rou to back down.

He took another sip of the tea soup, and after a while, he looked at Xu Yue and asked tentatively:

"Can I ask Chief Xu a question?"

Xu Yue nodded, "Excuse me."

Zhao Yu took a deep breath, lightly rested his hand that was not holding the cup on his knee, and secretly squeezed the fabric under his palm.

"Why does the Xu family army want to kill the family?"

Zhao Yudao said: "Although I don't know much about Xu Jiajun, and today I just met Chief Xu for less than a quarter of an hour, but I just feel that Xu Jiajun is not so aggressive. Cruel, drive out all the people who have been killed."

"Otherwise, Chief Xu, you wouldn't invite me out to a banquet, and you wouldn't tell me how much you regretted the soldiers."

"It's just that I don't understand why the Xu family army can distribute land to the tenants, reduce tax rates, and give these people who have nothing to do with many benefits, so why do they want to kill the nobles of the aristocratic family like this?"

"In this world, not all gentry families do evil things to their tenants. Many tenants sell themselves to the aristocratic family as tenants because they can't survive. I'm starving to death!"

Zhao Yu's eyes were full of confusion and entanglement, because he was willing to open a warehouse to release grain and help the people, so he couldn't understand Xu Jiajun's attitude towards the aristocratic gentry.

At first, he thought that Xu Jiajun did this only because he needed to confiscate the property of the aristocratic family and the gentry as start-up capital in the early stage.

In the mid-term, they should choose to join forces with some aristocratic families like all the rebels in the past, so that everyone can benefit from each other and get what they need.

In the end, if the old court is successfully overthrown and the unification of the Central Plains is realized, then the common people will also be able to end the suffering of this chaotic world.

Immediately afterwards, the New Deal was implemented to allow the people to resume production, live in peace, and the world was peaceful.

For some reason, facing Zhao Yu's solution, Xu Yue was a little excited and angry.

What is exciting is that Zhao Yu was the first person to ask her why she wanted to establish a new system in front of Xu Jiajun's uprising for so long.

Annoyed, Zhao Yu's self-righteousness.

Probably, this is the common thinking of the gentry groups based on benevolence and kindness.

"Zhao Yu, do you think you are doing a good job? Did you give a lot?"

Xu Yue tentatively asked: "Do you think you want to help the people, do you really want to help them, or do you think they are pitiful?"

"Or in other words, use a little charity that will not affect you yourself, and enjoy the sense of accomplishment and vanity brought by the people's gratitude to you?"

"Because from beginning to end, no matter what, you are not the real bottom people."

"Do you think it is enough for them to have enough food to maintain their physical strength?"

"Ordinary people should be content, right? Not being starved to death, not being frozen to death, should be the best life for ordinary people, right?"

"Then why, don't you go to live such a life?"

Zhao Yu straightened up, frowned slightly, with an inviolable appearance, and shouted:
"I belong to the royal family! The whole world belongs to the Zhao family. My ancestors made military exploits and the descendants of the descendants have my current status!"

Xu Yue took what he wanted to say, "As for those low-level people, because their ancestors did not make meritorious service for them, they can only live a life of precarity, starvation, and being oppressed by the powerful."

"How about counting 300 years further? How about 500 years? How about 1000 years? What is Zhao's royal court?" Xu Yue asked.

Zhao Yu was speechless.

Yan Rou and Qi Zhou standing behind him looked at each other, a little excited, they all wanted to continue listening to Xu Yue.

Xu Yue added another cup of tea for herself. The tea soup cooked by Zhao Bei was still delicious.

She put down her teacup and continued: "So, these are not the paths the people want to take. The previous regime was wrong."

"Because it is wrong, it will always be trapped in reincarnation."

"Have you read the history books? Does it mean that every two or three hundred years, the old dynasty will decline and be replaced by a new dynasty?"

"Every generation of people in power, in the early days of the dynasty, tried to improve this imperfect political system, so that society continued to progress."

"But we human beings are wonderful creatures. We have human nature. What is human nature? You can also simply understand it as human emotions and six desires."

"People's desires can never be satisfied. Those who have wealth still want rights, and those who have rights still want greater rights. In the end, no one remembers their original intentions."

"Then the aristocracy that we can see now was formed. In order to consolidate their status and guarantee their rights, they used their power to monopolize knowledge, monopolize the passage for the bottom people to climb up, and monopolize wealth."

"In the end, the order collapsed, the society became chaotic, everything was disrupted, the cards were reshuffled, social resources were redistributed, and then the process of building rights was repeated, continuing to collapse and rebuild."

"For 90.00% of people, this process will only make them more and more painful, and the resources they can control are becoming more and more exhausted. You can't understand this kind of cruelty, because you are the aloof hundred people. one-third."
