Chapter 776 The Su family’s plan

Juping County is located in the southeast of Fuzhou and is the junction of Minzhou, Muzhou and Fuzhou.

In the entire Fuzhou, apart from Jingyang Prefecture, Juping is the most prosperous.

The prosperity of Juping, in addition to its special geographical location, is also closely related to the Su family of Juping.

The Juping Su family is present in almost every industry in Juping and even the entire Fuzhou.

The Juping Su clan is the largest clan in Fuzhou.

There are almost 150,000 households in the entire Juping County.

There are nearly 20,000 households with the surname Su alone.

Of course, not all people with the surname Su are related to the Su family in Juping.

The ancestors of a large number of them were once slaves or farmers of the Su family in Juping. Due to various reasons, they were given the surname Su by their masters. After being freed, they continued to use Su as their surname, and gradually Multiply and grow.

The core of the Su family in Juping is the third family member of the Su family.

After hundreds of years of reproduction, the three houses of the Su family have grown and grown, with countless branches and vines.

The core of power of the Su family's third family is in the hands of seven clan veterans.

The elder of the seven Su clansmen has great power and high prestige in the Su clan in Juping.

Su Huaiyuan originally served as the county governor in Muzhou and was considered a prominent figure among the Su clan in Juping. However, the seven Su clans held a clan meeting a few days ago and decided to let him resign.

Su Huaiyuan was angry and helpless after receiving the news, and hurried back to Juping to find out what was going on.

He is only thirty-nine years old and is already the governor of a county.

He believed that with his talents and the support of his clan, he would be promoted to governor of a state within five years.

In the future, it is not impossible to become a high-ranking member of the DPRK.

He still had a bright future, but his clan suddenly asked him to resign. He couldn't figure it out.

"Dad, what's going on? You're so good, why do you want me to resign?"

After returning home, Su Huaiyuan asked his old father full of resentment.

His father, Su Henian, is also one of the seven elders of the Su clan and must know the inside story.

Su Henian was not very old, but he was lying on the Taishi chair looking very old.

Facing his son's question, Su Henian just raised his eyes slightly and asked calmly: "You should know that King Yunzheng of Jingbei also serves as the governor of Fuzhou, right?"

Su Huaiyuan replied: "This matter has been spread for a long time. It is estimated that the whole Daqian knows about it. How could I not know about it?"

"Now that you know, why are you still asking?"

Su Henian looked displeased, "You have been an official for many years, and you can't even understand this?"

Su Henian's words immediately confused Su Huaiyuan.

It means that because King Jingbei also served as the governor of Fuzhou, the clan members asked him to resign?

Is there... a necessary connection between these two?

He is an official in Muzhou!

Why should Yunzheng resign when he concurrently serves as the governor of Fuzhou?

Seeing that Su Huaiyuan still didn't understand, Su Henian couldn't help but remind: "Not only you, but all the people in the clan who are officials outside, including those officials who are supported by the clan, will submit their resignations to the court."

what?

Su Huaiyuan's expression changed drastically, and his head suddenly started buzzing.

So many people, all resigning?

Are they crazy?

"Dad, what do you want to do?"

Su Huaiyuan tried hard to calm down, frowning and said: "Don't you know who the King of Jingbei is? Are you not afraid that he will think that our Su family is dissatisfied with his concurrent appointment as the governor of Fuzhou? This is King Jingbei, who is willing to destroy the country, do you think he dare not destroy my Su family? "

crazy!

These clan elders are absolutely crazy!

It’s not good to offend anyone, but I’m going to offend Yunzheng!

This is the King of Jingbei who has a lot of troops!

Do they think that the Su family is stronger than Beihuan and Qiuchi?

Can the Su family bear Yun Zheng's wrath?

"Why does he destroy my Su family?"

Su Henian didn't care, "Just because a member of the Su family resigned from office, he is going to destroy my Su family? Does he still want his reputation? Besides, there are more than 100,000 people in our Su family, and he can kill them all." "?"

"This……"

Su Huaiyuan was speechless. After thinking for a moment, he said angrily: "That's what I said, but the key point is why do we do this? Whoever becomes the governor of Fuzhou, can't we just do our job well?"

"You have been serving as an official for so many years in vain!"

Su Henian shook his head in disappointment, "Let me ask you, what is the relationship between Yunzheng and the imperial court?"

what relationship?

Needless to say?

Su Huaiyuan didn't know why his old father asked such a redundant question. He was silent for a long time and replied: "Yunzheng has self-respect and ambition. It should only be a matter of time before he raises troops to create a reaction!"

"Then do you think that if Yun Zheng raises his troops to rebel, he will definitely win?" Su Henian asked again.

Su Huaiyuan thought for a while and replied: "In terms of military strength alone, if Yun Zheng raises troops to rebel, the court will most likely not be an opponent! But in many things, military strength does not determine everything! Throughout the ages, there have been many people who had strong military strength but failed to raise troops. ”

The strong military strength only shows that Yun Zheng has the strength to raise troops to rebel.

But whether it will succeed or not, no one can tell.

Today's Holy Emperor is not a faint king, and under his rule, many people can live and work in peace and contentment.

If Yun Zheng raises his troops to rebel, he is likely to lose the support of the people in the world and eventually be defeated.

"Isn't this enough?"

Su Henian lay there lazily, "Now, the situation between Yunzheng and the imperial court is still unclear. Our Su family is in Juping. If we want to avoid being involved in this whirlpool, the best way is to Resign and lie dormant! When the situation becomes clear, it will not be too late for our Su family to make a choice!"

The Su family has been able to multiply and grow to the extent it is today because they know how to protect themselves wisely.

Regardless of whether they were officials in Fuzhou or elsewhere, all of the Su family resigned from their posts, which was equivalent to neither siding with the imperial court nor with Yunzheng.

When the situation in the dispute between the imperial court and Yunzheng becomes clear, the Su family will see which side they support based on the situation.

In this way, it can be ensured that the Su family will not make the wrong choice.

In the future, no matter who sits on the throne, the Su family will still flourish.

After listening to Su Henian's words, Su suddenly realized that she was pregnant.

This choice sounds good.

But not making a choice means losing the opportunity to reach the sky in one step.

Giving help in times of need and adding icing on the cake will naturally lead to different results.

Moreover, when they resign, they do not resign just because they want to.

You must obtain the consent of the court!

"If the court does not agree to our resignation, wouldn't we have indirectly offended Yun Zheng?"

Su Huaiyuan expressed his worries.

"If the court doesn't agree, it's not our fault."

Su Henian said with a smile: "Anyway, my son of the Su family has resigned, but the court does not agree! In addition, we can also take the opportunity to see the attitude of King Jingbei towards us! Maybe we can even retreat. Come on, let Yun Zheng pay more attention to our Su family, and give promotions and titles to the children of the Su family!"

"You think well."

Su Huaiyuan frowned, "When he was appointed as the governor of Fuzhou, we, the Su family, gave him a blow. What do you think his attitude will be? Do you still want to expect a prince with a heavy army to appease you?"
