After settling things with the Mo family.
Chen Ke thought of another serious problem.
Wang Jian offended too many people in this revolution.
Although he was pardoned by the Ancestral Dragon overnight.
However, those nobles would definitely vent their anger on Wang Jian.
Thus, Chen Ke took a few jars of fine wine bestowed by the Ancestral Dragon in the palace and sat in a carriage. He set off from the palace and headed to Wang Jian's mansion.
The carriage was still some distance away from Wang Jian's mansion when Chen Ke heard the noise.
Turning a corner, he saw a bunch of people gathered in front of Wang Jian's mansion.
There were even people throwing paper money into the air.
There were even more people crying.
"Doctor's order, oh doctor's order, you can see clearly that His Majesty has already withdrawn the order to kill the nobles.“
"You died so tragically."
"After you died, His Majesty withdrew the decree. It seems that His Majesty also feels that it is against the heavens. If you want to vent your anger, go find that old man Wang Jian.”
"It's all this old man's fault for distorting His Majesty's decree.”
Following that, some officials fell to the ground and cried loudly.
"Old brother, old brother, we went to the battlefield when we suppressed the rebellion together. I didn't expect you to leave before me.”
"Our family's land has been taken away by that old thief Wang Jian. Our entire family should be starving to death at home.”
There were also people who pointed at Wang Jian's mansion and cursed,""Old man, come out. You've caused more than a thousand deaths. Aren't you going to stand up and say something? Is hiding okay?"
"I'm telling you, even if we die, we'll die in front of your mansion. We'll make sure that the vengeful souls and ghosts at the entrance of your mansion keep coming, so that you won't be able to sleep, and your family won't be able to have peace.”
The carriage arrived in front of Wang Jian's mansion. Chen Ke looked at the arrogant nobles.
He found that these nobles were the ones who had not been killed.
The half of the nobles who had died had already died last night. These people were good. Their families did not come to mourn, but they carried someone else's memorial tablet to cause trouble in front of the Prince's residence.
Chen Ke was furious.
"Come out! Are you all dead?”
"Do you think you can hide?"
"Right, we'll just die here, die at Wang Jian's door, and give him a few more vengeful souls.”
Chen Ke finally couldn't take it anymore. She got off the carriage and walked over.
"Who said that I'm going to die here?”
As soon as the voice came out, the crowd instantly fell silent. Everyone turned around to look.
Chen Ke stood behind him.
There were Iron Eagle Swordsmen guarding him.
Chen Ke!
His face was cold and murderous.
State Preceptor!
Now, he was an existence below one person and above tens of thousands of people.
The people who were clamoring just now all fell silent.
Chen Ke walked forward.
The crowd automatically parted to form a path.
The person who had scattered the joss paper quickly stuffed it into his pocket.
The one lying on the ground also stood up.
Chen Ke calmly walked through the middle of the crowd and arrived in front of Wang Jian's manor door.
He looked at the nobles who lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.
"Why aren't you talking?" Chen Ke asked coldly.”
"Didn't they all say that they would die in front of the king's mansion? Die for me!"
No one answered.
"Why are you all afraid of death?”
Still, no one dared to answer.
"How did Doctor Ming Zhou Huai die? Wasn't it you guys who made it happen?"
"He's brainless, but your brains are quite useful. You used him like a gun, but now he's dead and you're still using him.”
"The blood from last night hasn't dried yet, right?”
"All of you, instead of being happy at home after escaping a calamity, you came to the door of Old General Wang's residence to cause trouble. Do you think that you'll be fine after His Majesty took back his order?”
Chen Ke paused for a moment.
Seeing that they were still not saying a word, he snorted coldly,"15 days, I'll give you 15 days to return the land that I've seized to the Imperial Court!”
"If Your Majesty can retract the order, I can continue to carry out this order. I said it! If you don't hand it over, try it!"
The nobles trembled and broke out in cold sweat. They took a step back in fear.
"Get lost!"
A roar!
The nobles dispersed dejectedly.
No one spoke from beginning to end.
After the nobles left, the doors of the mansion opened.
Chen Ke took a step and entered Wang Jian's mansion.
The old general stood at the entrance of the central hall.
He looked at Chen Ke with a smile on his face.
Chen Ke walked forward and cupped his hands in greeting.
"Has the old general always been safe and sound?”
Wang Jian laughed loudly.
"Other than the few flies buzzing at the door, everything else is fine.”
"That's good!"
"State Preceptor, come inside for a chat!"
The two of them walked to the hall hand in hand.
A servant had already prepared a table.
The two of them sat opposite each other. Chen Ke took the wine and poured a bowl for the old general first, then poured a bowl for himself.
He raised his bowl and smiled." Old General, I'm here to accompany you to get drunk."”
Wang Jian smiled." I still have to thank the state preceptor for helping this old man get rid of those flies at the door."”
"I wouldn't dare to say that. The old general is a righteous person and has a bad reputation for Great Qin.”
Wang Jian was very open-minded.
"Imperial Preceptor and His Majesty are both doing great things, and we are just pawns. It seems like this old horse of mine is still of some use to be able to contribute so much to Great Qin's revolution.”
The two of them looked at each other and smiled.
He originally thought that Wang Jian would be furious.
How resentful.
It seemed that he didn't.
The old general was really open-minded.
While Chen Ke admired him, his heart ached even more for such an official.
After Feng Quji's death, Wang Jian killed many nobles, shocking the aristocrats.
After that, the distribution of land and the distribution of potato and sweet potato seeds became easier.
When the commoners heard that the Emperor was sincere in killing the nobles and distributing the land, they were shocked.
Their enthusiasm became exceptionally high.
Especially those who received land and grain seeds, there was even more hope.
The government troops who were distributing seeds in the county town looked at the people who came to collect the seeds and became especially gentle.
In the end, many big-headed soldiers were also poor children.
Seeing that the potatoes, sweet potatoes, and land had been distributed, he felt extremely happy and motivated.
"Kid, let me ask you something. After planting these sweet potatoes and potatoes, how will the tax be calculated?”
"Is there another levy? The county magistrates and the main bookkeepers in our county have to collect taxes according to the amount of land.”
"Now that His Majesty has given us so much land and so many seeds, do we have to pay more taxes?”
The official immediately replied,""Elder, don't worry. This is a great deed His Majesty has done for the Great Qin Empire. He has stipulated that half of the land that has been distributed will be used as taxes by the Imperial Court and half by the commoners.”
