    "No."

    Liu Zhe refused to listen to Xun Yu's advice. He said coldly: "Those who dare to touch me don't know how to write the word "death". I will teach them. Since they dare to touch me, they must be prepared to bear my anger.  .¡±

    The others were very moved after hearing this. It was their blessing to have such a lord on the stall, but what Liu Zhe said next surprised them.

    "My lord, are you going to Bingzhou?"

    "Yes, I want them to know the consequences of messing with me."

    Liu Zhe stood up, glanced at his confidants, and directly ordered: "Take the head of the Wang family into custody and wait until I arrive to deal with it. At the same time, closely monitor the other families and find them one by one."

    Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Xun Yu and others looked at each other. Liu Zhe's move was to scare the snakes and lure them out of their holes. I don't know how many people would be fooled and suffer as a result.

    Qi County in Taiyuan, a county town only more than a hundred miles away from Jinyang, is home to two of the three major families in Bingzhou, the Wang family and the Wen family.

    The influence of the Wang family and the Wen family in Qi County is very huge. Even the county magistrate of Qi County is a member of the Wang family.

    In Qi County, if a stone is thrown down, the person hit will be either Wang or Wen. The Wang family and the Wen family can be said to be the two local emperors in Qi County.  In the past, even if the governor of Bingzhou came to Qixian to visit the Wang family or the Wen family, he had to dismount his horse and walk to show respect.

    The current governor of Bingzhou is Xi Zhicai Taiwei Liu Zhe. After he took office, there were great changes in personnel in various places in Bingzhou, but there were no changes in personnel in Qi County and Qu County where the Guo family is located.

    Over time, the number of people in the Wang family gradually expanded. Especially after Wang Yun regained his footing in the court, the Wang family became even more powerful.

    In Qi County, no one dares to provoke anyone, even in Bingzhou, no one dares to provoke the Wang family.  The Wang family is one of the local bullies in Qi County.

    The Wang family¡¯s home is brightly lit, and even in the dark, the Wang family¡¯s lights can illuminate the nearby streets.

    Wang Xun, the head of the Wang family, is entertaining guests.

    "Haha" Wang Xun is nearly fifty years old, but he is very well maintained. He looks rich and his smile is full of kindness, just like an old man who specializes in doing good things.

    The Wang family has indeed done a lot of good deeds. They have built bridges and roads. When faced with natural disasters, they will open warehouses to release grain and provide relief to the people. Many people will respectfully call them "good man Wang Yuanwai" when they meet.

    But if you are really deceived by his appearance, then those who oppose him are destined to suffer.

    The people attending Wang Xun¡¯s banquet today are all other small and medium-sized families in Bingzhou.

    Today, Wang Xun hosted a banquet for them, saying it was to bond with each other. In fact, everyone who participated knew very well that it was a celebration banquet.  As for what they are celebrating, they know exactly what they are celebrating because they are also involved.

    Since Liu Zhe took advantage of Ding Yuan's death to occupy Bingzhou, he sent his minions to firmly hold Bingzhou in his hands.  If that's all, it's not a big deal to them, be it the governor of Bingzhou, the pastor of Bingzhou, or even the emperor, as long as it doesn't hinder their financial path.

    But Liu Zhe doesn¡¯t think so. Salt can be bought and sold, but taxes must be paid. This is Liu Zhe¡¯s bottom line.

    So he sent Xi Zhicai and Chen Qun to start a severe crackdown on smugglers, blocking their way of making money.

    As the saying goes, killing someone's wealth is like killing their parents. Therefore, they began to dislike Liu Zhe and even started to oppose Liu Zhe.

    However, Liu Zhe's men have become much stronger. There are 200,000 troops stationed in Bingzhou at any time. They have a reputation of defending the grassland aliens, but they feel that they are guarding against them.

    They wanted to resist, but due to the huge disparity in strength between them and Liu Zhe, they could only endure this tone.

    Liu Zhe¡¯s crackdown on illegal salt trading actually caused the greatest losses to the Wang family.  Originally, the Wang family could only swallow their anger, because Wang Xun was not a fool. The court was in the hands of Dong Zhuo, and Dong Zhuo was so afraid of Liu Zhe. If the Wang family dealt with Liu Zhe and was slaughtered by Liu Zhe, Dong Zhuo would not fart more.

    However, as the emperor fled and the imperial court moved to Yanzhou, and Wang Yun, the Situ, regained power, Wang Xun's thoughts became active.

    Wang Yun and Wang Xun often corresponded. Wang Xun knew that Liu Zhe was helping Wang Yun, and Wang Yun was able to gradually gain power.

    Wang Xun has always been the head of the family, and his political vision is very different from that of Wang Yun.  Wang Yun knew that he could not do without Liu Zhe, but in Wang Xun's view, Liu Zhe could not do without Wang Yun.

    Wang Xun's idea is very simple. Liu Zhe is the emperor's uncle and a clan member of the Han Dynasty. He helps Wang Yun because he is afraid that Cao Cao will control the court alone, which will be detrimental to him in the future, so he needs Wang Yun.  OtherwiseWhy would he help Wang Yun for no reason? He must have done so because he needed Wang Yun.

    After he thought he understood this, Wang Xun began to become arrogant. He felt that even if he did something extraordinary, Liu Zhe would not dare to touch him, because Liu Zhe still needed Wang Yun.

    Wang Xun, who was becoming arrogant, set his sights on the private salt controlled by Liu Zhe. He once asked Xi Zhicai for permission to buy and sell salt privately. If allowed, he could give Xi Zhicai some sweetness, but Xi Zhicai was  reject.

    In fact, Xi Zhicai was pretty good about the big families in Bingzhou. The salt industry was bought and sold by them, and they only sent people to supervise the tax collection. But in Wang Xun's view, after paying the tax and making so much less, how could this be possible?  ?
