"What time does the singing and dancing of the West Lake and the Qingshan Tower outside the mountain close?"

The warm wind makes tourists drunk, and they call Hangzhou Bianzhou."

Moreover, because of the existence of the West Lake, the layout of Hangzhou City has always been different from other places. For example, the city is narrow and long, and there is an open space to the south outside the Jinmen Gate at the west gate of the city. It should be regulated outside the city.

Nowhere else can be as prosperous as the city, but in fact, because this place is next to the West Lake, you can see the Su Causeway and Leifeng Pagoda in the distance, and it is also the gate of the moat leading to the West Lake and the location of the pier, so it has always been full of restaurants and merchants.

It's almost livelier than in the city.

And now, in the winter of the eighth year of Jianyan, the Zhao Guan family of Bianzhou visited the south. Because they fell in love with the magnificent view of the West Lake, the Wuyue Palace has been stationed for a long time on Fenghuang Mountain directly southwest of the city and southeast of the West Lake, making this place actually become the entire empire.

The political center of the south has made flowers bloom outside Yongjin Gate.

Not to mention anything else, eight out of ten people who come and go to plan the establishment of the local government system are Jiangnan nobles with rich family backgrounds. A small reward is enough to attract many people who are busy in the market.

One portion was chewed and wrapped.

What's more, in addition to these people, there are also officials and messengers from all over the country who are constantly coming and going, as well as thousands of imperial tigers and tigers that suddenly appear around Phoenix Mountain. They all have to spend money, but they are enough to make the prosperity outside Jinmen even higher.

One floor up.

So back to the poem at the beginning, it is said that it was recited by an unknown poet. Because his family could not enter the public pavilion, he wrote it to a restaurant outside Yongjin Gate, in order to mock those who thought they were in the public house all day long.

If there is a political treatment in the cabinet, it will be regarded as a "preparation for consultation".

That's right, this is a sour poem about jealous people, and it was also praised by Zhao Guan's family who sent Li Gang off to his hometown on the second day after the martial arts competition.

Within reach!

For this reason, this main restaurant, which is said to have a history of fifty or sixty years, changed its name to the outer building yesterday, and its business instantly jumped to the first place in the West Lake... I don’t know how many idlers came to visit this outer building in the afternoon.

Specializing in Zhao Guan's family, what do you see in the sunset on Lei Feng?

What kind of thing is Leifeng Pagoda really? You must know that since the Leifeng Pagoda was destroyed by the Guan and Shu families during the Laqi Incident more than ten years ago, the entire tower has been in tatters and has lost its former splendor. That is

People with strange aesthetics like Zhao Guan's family would point to a broken tower and say it was worthy of the splendor of the West Lake.

Without further ado, the weather was fine that afternoon. It was supposed to be another day when the building outside the building was crowded, but not many distinguished guests came to the building. On the contrary, the landscape itself is located, but it is not a viewing place. Now it is called Sunset

The Leifeng Pagoda on the mountain was crowded for a while. It turned out that this afternoon, whether it was the people who were "preparing for consultation" or other wealthy people who came to seek official careers, they all flocked here directly to prepare for the ceremony... Internally produced by Lu Benzhong

I was here to set up a monument to record the grand occasion of building the Yanwulin River on that day.

"Indeed, it's time to erect a monument."

Seeing what Lu Benzhong was saying in the distance under the Leifeng Pagoda, the two older scholars who could not squeeze past had no choice but to join hands and chat outside the Xizhao Mountain. "The official's remarks made Li Xianggong invite himself to return home in order to maintain his long-term reputation.

It can also be said that Zhang Jiucheng aspired to be a pioneer for the king and turned to serve as an official in Tokyo. Just for these two people, it is worthy of erecting a monument to draw a conclusion."

"It's only after meeting the Holy Master that Li Boji could achieve such a good result, and Zhang Jiucheng could have such a good opportunity." The people next to him sighed. "A person with a white body, who has not been confused for 40 years, can actually become a white body because of playing the right game."

Being promoted to the rank of Minister and Secret Pavilion, how could such a thing be seen before Jianyan?"

"Who says it's not the case?" The man from before also exclaimed. "It's a pity that there is only one person in Zhang Jiuzheng's situation. Even the rest of the people in the palace who have good backgrounds are only Su Bai, Li Tao and a dozen or so people.

If this local government is established, the specific regulations, what rank it can have, and what tasks it can do are still a bit vague... Could it be like the satirical poem written by the prodigal, it is purely an empty name, and the official returns to Bianzhou

Just discard it directly?"

"Not that much." Another middle-aged scholar in his forties who had been listening carefully to the discussion of the two people suddenly interrupted. This man spoke with a local accent and looked like a person from Zhejiang, but he actually wore a sword. It was also weird.

"The official's southern tour was to apply for Li Boji's name, and to promote Zhang Jiucheng. The key is to recommend never to increase the tax, and to share the land with the peasants. If these two methods can be achieved, Jiangnan will be

The people’s grievances have been dispelled, and many of the dirty things underneath have been cleared away, and the important task of appeasing Jiangnan before the Northern Expedition has been completed..."

"But does this have anything to do with the power and responsibilities of the government?" The man before was still confused.

"Of course." The middle-aged scholar wearing a sword smiled on the spot. "In order to carry out such a big policy, especially the sharing of land, the basic purpose is to transfer the money originally provided by the poor people to those who are rich and powerful in the local area.

On the situation households... and if you want to suppress the situation households, according to the practice of this dynasty, you must use the power of the scholars and pull the scholars to suppress these situation households; in addition, although the officials and Lu Xianggong have always been tough

, so much so that he announced that he would mobilize the imperial army to go south, but whether it was officials or Mr. Lu, who would really force those households to rebel? So it was inevitable to gather one or two things... As for how to gather them, it was still the same sentence,

Everything must have a beginning, and you will know the purpose of this palace when it was first established."

"I understand." Before the two men could respond, another middle-aged scholar next to him who had been silent until now suddenly joined in, and then, he also had a sword... This place in the southeast was still the Song Dynasty.

Encountering two swordsmen can't help but make people marvel. "My dear friend, what I mean is that although the official is the emperor and is on the verge of death, unless he is forced to have no choice, it is not easy to directly use force to suppress others. He still has to

Try to follow the rules as much as possible... Therefore, this palace must be permanent, and there must be some real discussions, and must be knowledgeable about the royal methods, and there must not even be some specific tasks assigned to it. "

"Not bad!" The third scholar was overjoyed when he saw that the other party was knowledgeable and a swordsman like himself.

"And if this is the case, we should use some means to stabilize the south of the Yangtze River and not cause chaos to the court to avoid causing trouble; on the other hand, we should persuade the officials not to really send the army south... Another one

Thousands or even tens of thousands of imperial soldiers and horses have arrived in the southeast, and then there will be tens of thousands of horses and horses in silence!" Seeing that the conversation was on the right track, the fourth scholar hurriedly stepped forward with his sword in hand, and then held his hands to each other. "I dare to ask my name, why don't you jointly submit a letter?"

"You two stay here, why..." The two people who originally started the topic became more and more confused, but after looking at each other, they felt that they couldn't keep up with their thoughts. However, the conclusion the other party came to made him confused.

The claws scratch my heart. "This joint letter is..."

"It's a simple matter." The swordsman who first interrupted laughed casually and explained a little. "For no other reason, do you two wise brothers still remember that the official family went upstairs to have wine outside? The official family's chariot came in person and didn't pay.

That's fine, but Shao Yaoban, who was accompanying him, paid the money anyway. This was a more appropriate behavior... and now that the officials want local powerful people to pay for the poor, they will inevitably have to trade power and responsibility in exchange for the return of scholars.

To suppress Hao You and give Hao You a little outlet so that they don't have to overreact... And this public cabinet is where the government pays its bills."

At first, the two of them were suddenly overjoyed...it turned out that this palace was a place where officials used their rank to do business with people like themselves, so they naturally woke up.

Immediately, the four people quickly exchanged their names. At first, the two of them were just ordinary useless scholars who had no explanation for half their lives. However, the third person turned out to be from the famous Lu family in Yuezhou, and was called Lu Xi.

A little more ordinary, he was just a down-and-out scholar in Wuzhou, called Chen Yi.

The four of them had agreed on their names, and naturally they recommended Mr. Lu to be the leader. They were going to write a letter to express their determination to the official family, and also to see if they could get some profit from the official business... However, just when the four of them were about to

After discussing it carefully, we heard a loud noise at the monument under the dilapidated Leifeng Pagoda in front of us. It took us a while to figure out what was going on.

It turned out that after Lu Benzhong, the internal control officer, came forward to erect a monument to commemorate the previous Jianyan Martial Arts Conference, he directly mentioned the matter, saying that the officials were determined to stay in Jiangnan until the success of the government, but he had the intention to do so.

Xing Zai was the foundation, and he temporarily established a Xing Zai Di newspaper. He asked him, Bachelor Lu, to handle it, but he was asking the three good celebrities in the palace who understood the original learning, loved the country, and were loyal to His Majesty to help him with this mission...

...Jiangnan has longed for Di Bao for who knows how many years. As soon as this statement came out, some unscrupulous people could not help but recommend themselves on the spot regardless of their decency, which then caused a commotion.

Being so far away, of course the four of them could only watch, but none of them were literary and romantic people, and Lu Benzhong's behavior clearly verified their previous guesses. The official family was indeed trying to deal with the Southeastern scholars and nobles.

The right carries out certain political bribery.

As a result, the four of them looked at each other, but together they determined to take advantage of this opportunity to climb Phoenix Mountain, so they turned back and prepared to return to the place where they were staying to have a little discussion... Among them, Chen Yi was a little depressed because of his family.

He rented a farmer's spare house in the countryside outside the city, and was then invited by Lu Xi to live with him in his own courtyard. Gradually, he came to know the other party's similar difficulties and twists and turns. In addition, the other party was also a rare warrior practitioner. The two discussed current affairs together.

Fencing and reading actually made me feel close to each other immediately, but there was no need to mention it again.

Two or three days later, with a flourish of Lu Xi's pen, he reluctantly wrote a memorial, and even asked his nephew to help read the typos, but it was officially submitted.

When the document arrived at Fenghuang Mountain, because the whole article was talking about the issue of raising a family, it was naturally sorted by Ren Baozhong and sent to the imperial court.

After reading it, Zhao Guanjia felt a little shake in his heart. One day later, when Lu Yihao and Xu Jingheng came to Fenghuang Mountain for a routine report, they mentioned this matter:

"If I understand it correctly, the meaning of this document is probably that the scholars in the southeast will try their best to cooperate with the great government. I hope I will not send the imperial army southward, right? What do you think, my two ministers?"

"I think this statement is pertinent. For now, the Jiangnan scholars are quite right-minded." Xu Jingheng was the first to express his opinion after reading the document. "Including the current land inventory for the temple, everything is going smoothly.

, it may not necessarily be necessary to send the imperial army south to Jinling to station..."

One more thing to say here, whether you want to apportion the land into acres or never increase the tax, the prerequisite is that you must conduct a unified land clearing and a large-scale land inventory... The land clearing is a unified clearing and preparation of household registration, and the land inspection is to inspect the land.

, which is a necessary precondition for any large-scale tax reform.

After Zhao Guan's family made up their minds at the martial arts conference, Li Gang put down everything and retired to his hometown. Lv Yihao and Xu Jingheng, the two husbands, took the lead in carrying out comprehensive land excavation and a small amount of land inspection activities starting from temples.

"The temple is a temple." Returning to the Phoenix Mountain Palace, which was full of crows, Lu Yihao really disapproved of Xu Jingheng. "In the temple, the so-called monks who can run away cannot run away from the temple. Taoism has always been the property of the emperor, and you can squeeze it and rub it at will.

Yuan, and the ascetics are bare-headed after all. You can tell at a glance that they can't hide. Even if they are dissatisfied, they are at best playing tricks. How can they dare to really resist the government? But after visiting the temple, they have to start from the two Zhejiang provinces.

A large-scale comprehensive inspection of the land began, which was tantamount to taking food directly from the mouths of those households (haoyou)... If something bad happened at that time, the official family only had 3,000 soldiers in Fenghuang Mountain, who would dare to take the risk?

Where’s the responsibility?”

These last words were obviously a reminder to Xu Jingheng that you are just a retired person and I am the serious envoy to the southeast.

In this regard, Xianggong Xu hesitated for a moment and did not respond directly to Lu Yihao. Instead, he directly handed over his hand and said to Zhao Guanjia:

"In the official family, it has been right since ancient times that right-wing people are prone to disaster. In today's world, it is also right not to forget wars. However, the place of Liangzhe and Jiangdong (Jiangnan East Road) has always been rich and has a large number of scholars. In addition, there are many cities

And the village chiefs, officials, and Xianggong Lu are directly supervising here, which can be said to be a king... This memorial is the evidence... If you say that there will be a rebellion in the two Zhejiang inspection areas, I probably think it is a bit too much.

."

"What Mr. Xu means is..." Of course Zhao Jiu could tell that the two Mr. Xuan never liked each other, but he jumped in before Lu Yihao could refute. "You can have the troops and horses in the north prepare, but you have to wait a little?

Or stay further away, such as stationing in Yangzhou or Huaidian, and not cross the river for the time being?"

"This is what I mean." Xu Jingheng sincerely handed over his hand. "Officials, if this matter can be done without fighting or causing chaos, it will also be a comfort to the people of Jiangnan, and it will also allow the central authority to grow in Jiangnan. Otherwise, it will

Even if we suppress it with military force, I am afraid that it will be like the Fangla Rebellion, which will create a barrier between the southeast and the country... During the Fangla Rebellion, the Western Army suppressed the rebellion, which caused more disaster than Fangla, so that the soldiers and people in the southeast changed their colors when they heard about the officials and soldiers.

Later, Li Gang and Li Xianggong triggered military chaos in the southeast, which could not be quelled for a long time, which made the southeast even more resistant to military affairs... Therefore, if it is not possible, I think it is not necessary to increase the army to the two Zhejiang provinces."

Zhao Jiu said nothing and looked directly at Lu Yihao. It was obvious that he was somewhat persuaded by Xu Jingheng, but he still had to respect Lu Yihao's gesture.

Let's just say that within a few seconds, the two ministers had already exchanged ideas.

Lu Yihao wanted to emphasize that he was a serious husband-in-law, but the other party was a re-employed person. Unexpectedly, Xu Xianggong didn't bother to pay attention to Mr. Lu because he was a re-employed person. However, Lu Yihao was completely confused even if he didn't want to hold an overnight grudge and didn't know how to deal with it.
To be continued...
