Chapter 614 Cleaning
Since ancient times, it is inevitable for any dynasty to form cliques for private interests and factions.

Where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes, and where there are interests, there will be fights.

Where there are fights, there will be enemies and friends. Yucheng, a place where the interests and power of the world are concentrated, is more cruel than the fights anywhere in the world.

These powerful people can affect the emperor's governance and the situation in the world, and the small ones can hold together to keep warm, so that they will not be isolated and helpless.

These large and small groups representing various forces have seriously threatened the imperial power.

In this way, it is inevitable that he will be guessed and hated by the emperor.

Small influences are not big, so the emperor will naturally not take care of them. However, for those factions that have too much influence, the emperor can do nothing but eradicate them to consolidate the imperial power.

Others can only compromise, but as we all know, the emperor's compromise is often only temporary and cannot last for a long time.

After all, sand is not tolerated in the emperor's eyes, and they will not allow any faction that can affect his imperial power to exist.

Therefore, the existence of the Shangguan family has always been the heart disease of every new Emperor Yu.

However, as time goes by, the Shangguan family will become the existence that every emperor relies on.

Especially for the old emperor who is about to die, his trust in the Shangguan family is exactly the same.

Before almost every old emperor died, he would give the Shangguan family great powers to ensure a smooth transition of imperial power.

The reason for this is simple.

Although the Shangguan family is powerful, they know how to behave better, and there is never a voice to refute the emperor's orders on the surface.

He wouldn't be so stupid as to use the face of the emperor to forge his own power, that's what treacherous and powerful officials would do.

The Shangguan family would never do such a stupid thing, what the Shangguan family pursued from the beginning to the end was to obey whoever is the emperor.

It doesn't matter whether the emperor is stupid or wise, as long as a person surnamed Xuanyuan sits, the Shangguan family will listen to the person sitting in the seat.

In this way, in the face of the influence of the Shangguan family in the military and the life-and-death relationship between the government of the Eight Great Nations, the successive emperors would not be cruel to the Shangguan family.

Under normal circumstances, it will only be suppressed secretly, and the behavior of suppressing will gradually decrease in the end.

Because no matter who sits on the throne, they all need the support of the Shangguan family, the military, and the government of the Eight Great Nations.

A Shangguan family represented the three forces, and the Shangguan family had always supported the imperial power, which made it impossible for any normal-minded Emperor Dayu to act so stupidly as to cut off his own arms.

Eliminate a Shangguan family, thus causing him to lose a prestigious and obedient courtier.

At the same time, it indirectly caused chaos in the military forces, causing other hereditary princes and families to give birth to rabbits and foxes, creating a estrangement from the royal family.

In this way, the emperor who lost the support of the military and the eight great families at the same time, how long can he sit on the seat?

How can such a royal family be supported by all forces.

Therefore, it is precisely because of various concerns and the Shangguan family's support for the royal family throughout the ages.

As a result, even though the Shangguan family had a strong influence in the military faction, the emperor turned a blind eye to it.

After a few days of receiving a group of lieutenant generals with his cheap grandfather, Shangguan Qiuyu really saw the power of Shangguan's family in Dayu's army.

More than half of the senior generals in the four major armies of Yucheng had direct contact with the Shangguan family, and they all came empty-handed and returned with full rewards.

Each of them didn't know what being polite was, and his cheap grandfather was like a boss, paying salaries to all the generals who came.

This act of buying people's hearts under the eyes of the emperor really surprised Shangguan Qiuyu.

He had never seen a courtier buy the hearts of his subordinates, and he did it so openly, which completely overturned Shangguan Qiuyu's original thinking.

However, for the thinking of modern people, it is always faster to accept new affairs, so Shangguan Qiuyu was only surprised at the beginning.

Then he learned that the Shangguan family's behavior of buying people's hearts had lasted for thousands of years.

Still not being uprooted by the royal family, Shangguan Qiuyu admired the ancestors of the Shangguan family, and at the same time admired Dayu's royal family's endurance.

This kind of magnanimity is not something that ordinary people can have. It is really unprecedented for Dayu's royal family to be able to achieve this step.

However, it is precisely because of the tolerance of Dayu's royal family that no matter how powerful the Eight Great Aristocratic Families are, they never have the mentality to replace the royal family.

The eight great families have stood firmly behind the royal family from the beginning to the end, and they have always stood together with the royal family to fight against all invading enemies.

Thus created the majestic Dayu Dynasty that lasted for thousands of years.

Compared with the generous gifts sent by the generals in the army, the people from the other seven kingdoms, other officials and even the princes.

The Shangguan family was not polite at all, they took all of them down one by one, one by one went up and down, and between going out and entering, the Shangguan's house didn't suffer any loss.

This battle in southern Xinjiang brought people's attention to the Zhen Guogong's mansion, which had been silent for many years, and the impetus for a strong comeback was unstoppable.

Earlier, the Shangguan family had no heirs, so no matter how much meritorious service Zhenguo made, the Shangguan family inevitably lacked stamina.

The world is full of goodwill, and the world is all good.

No matter how much kindness the Shangguan family has towards those generals, if the Shangguan family has no successors.

For the sake of themselves and the continuation of their family, they naturally need to think carefully.

Now that Shangguan Qiuyu is back, they don't have any worries like before.

Factional disputes are always cruel, and there is no such thing as being forgiving and forgiving.

Success or failure determines life and death. Since they have been labeled as the Shangguan family and have enjoyed the benefits that the Shangguan family has brought them, they can only advance and retreat with the Shangguan family.

Therefore, Shangguan Qiuyu has been busy with his cheap grandfather to appease the lieutenant generals and accept the loyalty of the lieutenant generals.

As a last resort, Shangguanxiong didn't care too much about this issue.

Now, since it is necessary to pave the way for Shangguan Qiuyu, Shangguan Xiong naturally has to sit in charge of the gate in person.

At the same time, they vigorously cleaned up those generals who were not firm in their will in the army as soon as possible, and re-cleaned the generals of the entire Shangguan faction.

The magnitude of the force is frightening, and the involvement is widespread throughout the four major legions. This year is not as good as imagined.

The generals in the army were completely powerless to contend with Shangguanxiong, the Lord of the Town, and there were no less than dozens of generals who were killed by the Lord Shangguanxiong on the spot.

Even the family members behind him were bloodbathed by the iron guards of the Shangguan family in the first place, and they were truly wiped out.

This made Shangguan Qiuyu meet his cheap grandfather for the first time, and when facing his own people, he also had a cold-blooded and cruel side.
