Chapter 95 Trivial Affairs

There was a result on the school field. Wei Mengqiang used a ancestral trick, and ran to Fang Zhichong's face with his left hand. Fang Zhichong habitually sealed it out with a stick. As a result, Wei Mengqiang twisted his halberd and locked his iron stick. Fang Zhichong twisted hard, but unexpectedly, Wei Mengqiang's right hand halberd pointed to the ribs, and his body twisted quickly. His fat robe was hung by the halberd and fork, and he tore a hole. Wei Mengqiang won.

After winning, Wei Mengqiang was in a good mood. He looked at Fang Zhizhong and was particularly pleasing to the eyes. He hung up the double halberd and said with a smile: "Good man, he is just a little worse than me. He often comes to play two moves with me, Old Wei when he has time, and it is satisfying."

Fang Zhizhong was dissatisfied, but his clothes were indeed torn to pieces, so he had to respond silently. The two came to Jiang Anyi and others and jumped off the horse. The prince looked at Fang Zhizhong and liked him from the bottom of his heart. The invincible general returned to him, so he smiled and said, "Zhizhong, I see you don't have a horse, and this yellow-fat horse will be given to you."

Wei Mengqiang was surprised. The prince was very frank about gold, silver and other things, but he cherished BMWs very much. He didn't want to ride a yellow horse for a while. Why did he give it to others so generously today? Then he heard Fang Zhijin throw himself into the personal guard, Wei Mengqiang suddenly realized and said, "It's good. I've been idle all the time, and I've finally got someone to fight."

Fang Zhizhong is also a martial arts fanatic. He doesn't value the coach very much. He is happy to be able to fight Wei Mengqiang frequently. He held his breath secretly and must beat this beard down next time.

When Wei Mengqiang heard that Jiang Anyong was about to throw himself into his personal guard, he looked at him contemptuously and said, "I don't have two taels of meat all over my body. What can I do when I get to the personal guard? Do I need to use swords and guns and raise horses?"

Jiang Anyong was furious. He promised himself to be brave in the countryside. In addition to his brother and Fang Zhizhong, he really looked down on several people. A newborn calf was not afraid of tigers. Jiang Anyong jumped on his big red horse, played with his marksmanship on the horse, and asked for a pair of bows and arrows from the guards on the sidelines. He drove the horse and shot arrows, and all three arrows were red.

He came to Wei Mengqiang's side and asked angrily: "How?"

"Forget it, you can barely take a look at the archery. If you come to my subordinates as a soldier for a few days, you will know how many bowls of rice you will eat." Wei Mengqiang said without hesitation.

Wei Mengqiang brought two newcomers to dress up, and Jiang Anyi followed the prince back to the house. Shi Fangdao's attitude became much closer and said, "Anyi, you came to Renzhou this time to Qingzhan Tianmu. If there is a place for me to help, just talk." If Anyang Palace helps, Qingzhan can relieve a lot of pressure. Jiang Anyi solemnly thanks.

After dinner, Jiang Anyi felt relieved. Fang Zhizhong and his brother had a serious place to go, and he also quit his worries. He didn't know that the real trouble had just begun.

Just after Shen Shi, Liu Yushan found the inn and said with a smile: "An Yi, please hold a banquet to greet you in the evening and let me accompany you."

The banquet was set up in Yu Zhijie's Qingzhan's yamen. The rules were made in front of the palace and behind the house. Yu Zhijie lived alone, and Liu Yushan's home was not in Anyang Palace, so he also lived in the palace. The others had not arrived yet, and many houses were empty, and they were ready to be given to the deputy envoys of Qingtian who had no place to live.

These days, Liu Yushan and Yu Zhijie get along well. Yu Zhijie likes this young man who is brave enough to do things. He is An Yi's classmate and friend, so he treats him as a nephew and is very casual in private. Four dishes and one soup, three people sit together, and they eat and talk.

Liu Yushan briefly introduced the matter of Qingtianmu to Jiang Anyi: "Renzhou governs 62 counties, 673,256 households, and a population of 342,210,000, and 378. Renzhou Prefecture recorded 250,000 hectares of land in the registered area." Jiang Anyi secretly smacked his tongue. Renzhou is worthy of being Zhongzhou, with more than twice the population of Dezhou.

"Mr. Yu copied from the Ministry of Revenue from the Ministry of Revenue that the number of land in Renzhou was 260,000 hectares ten years ago, which means that the land in Renzhou has decreased by nearly 10,000 hectares in the past ten years." Liu Yushan drank a sip of wine, moistened his throat, and continued: "There is no problem with the number of land on the books. The key is that there are not only so many wastelands that have been reclaimed during the ten years, and there must be concealment and misreport."

Seeing Yu Zhijie's encouraging eyes, Liu Yushan became more and more excited. Obviously, he had worked hard, and a string of data was told from him that the number of fields, land, mountains, storms and dikes could even be accurate to a fraction of the tiny. Yu Zhijie praised him very much and said with a smile: "Yu Shan is doing things in a solid manner. You have already made the most of the ten people. An Yi, you are my student, and you cannot lose your face as a teacher."

Jiang Anyi has never done any practice before. Listening to the data in Liu Yushan’s mouth, he is too immense, which is not as easy as studying. When Master Yu spoke, he naturally cannot show weakness and pretends to agree with confidence.

Yu Zhijie respected the two of them and said, "You can't just look at the data in the account book in the Qing Dynasty. You should go down to the actual situation and check it out in detail. With my years of experience as an official, the disadvantages of this land are mainly divided into three categories. Fields are divided into three levels, upper-level, medium-level and lower-level. According to the Da Zhenglu, the land tax above the land tax is collected as the base. One dou and two liters per acre is worth fifteen cents, while the medium-level land is worth nine cents and the lower-level land is worth eight cents. The determination of this land is often the biggest disadvantage. Some people try to change their own land into lower-level, and the county officials also make great efforts to benefit and make profits."

"What should I do? There are so many fields in Renzhou, we can't really reach every acre of fields?" Liu Yushan asked with a frown.

"Only by following the records of previous years, taking a spot check on the spot, severely punishing some illegal people, and shaking the mountain and shaking the tiger, there will always be some results." Yu Zhijie was a county magistrate, so he naturally knew that there would be no fish when the water was clear. It was impossible to really clear the disadvantages. If he could clear out 60 or 70% of the fields, the clearance battle was completed successfully.

Jiang Anyi couldn't get in touch, so he sniffed the wine for Master Yu and Commander Liu, listened silently to their conversation, thinking about what he should do.

Yu Zhijie's expression was a little serious and continued: "The second is the exemption of taxes for newly reclaimed land and poor mountains and bad lands and the delayed taxes for postponing taxes. There are many tricks in this. When you go to the county to investigate in detail, you will understand that there are many difficulties."

"The third type is the most difficult and the biggest obstacle to the Qing Dynasty. The powerful family took advantage of the country's right to exempt the land tax and engulfed the land of good families in large quantities. Some people would rather hang their own fields in the name of these people in order to greed for some small profits. Although Renzhou is only Zhongzhou, it is a famous and prosperous place for fish and rice. The Li family of Anqi has been in operation for more than 200 years. The family, children, disciples and former officials are all over Renzhou, and it is a whole body. It is difficult for Yi Yongbo to have a newbie with a fief in Renzhou."

Yu Zhijie sighed a long time, Liu Yushan stroked his forehead, and then sighed, saying, "Although Governor Li is not from the Anqi Li family, he also has a relationship with Li family. He strongly supports the Qing Dynasty's Tianmu business, but in fact his attitude is ambiguous. It is difficult to sit and see the direction of the wind. "

Thinking of the Prince of Anyang who said he was willing to help, Jiang Anyi said excitedly: "Master Yu, I will visit the Prince of Anyang in the afternoon. The Prince told me that he could help in the matter of ​​trading the Tianmu."

"Oh, Yu Zhijie's depressed mood was aroused and he smiled and said, "I have also heard of the "Dian Jiang Lip" you made at the birthday party in Beijing. The name of the little lyrics in Jiangnan is so well-known. When will I write a song for my teacher?"

Yu Zhijie teased Jiang Anyi with a rare sentence and said, "Tell me specifically what Your Highness said."

Jiang Anyi told him about his entrustment to the royal family to serve in the army. Liu Yushan looked happy and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Anyi and the prince's relationship is so close. If the prince can help, it would be great."

Yu Zhijie said calmly: "An Yi, why don't you tell me about such a big thing in advance? You're too hasty about this."

Jiang Anyi and Liu Yushan were both stunned. Being able to get in touch with the Prince of Anyang was a great help to Tianmu, the Qing Dynasty this time. Why was Mr. Yu unhappy?

Looking at the two confused younger generations, Yu Zhijie sighed and decided to tell them the whole story. Yu Zhijie said: "The King of Anyang is the uncle of today's son. When the King of Anyang was once rumored to inherit the throne, how could the emperor have no scruples about him? An Yi entrusted his brother and brother to the Prince of Anyang, which undoubtedly expressed his conspiracy to the world to complain to the King of Anyang. What did the emperor think?"

"You can't make any mistakes in the ups and downs of officialdom. An Yi, you have just entered the officialdom and are not clear about these things. If you know what you are doing today, it is very likely to ruin your bright future." Yu Zhijie looked at his beloved disciple and sighed long.

Yangyi Village, Linfengxuan stands against the lake, half of which is placed above the water surface, and the cool breeze enters the house through the water surface, which is particularly cool. The King of Anyang leans on the brocade couch and listens to his son happily telling Jiang Zhuangyuan entrusting his brother and brother to him, without comment.

Shi Fangdao talked for a long time, his tongue was dry and his mouth was irritable. He picked up the tea and took a sip. Seeing that his father seemed to be asleep, he said depressedly: "Old man, can't you praise your son a few words? How beautiful you did this. The top scholar who passed the third year and the little Cixian of Jiangnan are excited to think about it."

The King of Anyang glanced at his son lightly and said, "What are you praising? Is you a polite and noble man, and you have the style of a wise king, and you have the posture of a dragon and a phoenix?"

Shi Fangdao shook, what did the father say? Is this inappropriate? Standing up straight and looking at his father with his eyes wide open, he knew that his father's belly was not fat, but was all curves.

Seeing that his son was smart, the King of Anyang felt happy and did not show his face, and still said with a faint expression: "If you really like this Jiang Anyi, you don't have to deliberately avoid him. Eat, drink, and have fun together. Anyway, you are a playboy. But I would like to remind you for your father, don't talk about any serious matters, let alone help him in the Qing Dynasty. In a word, you can play, but you can't do serious matters."

There is no need to be heavy hammered in the ringing gong. Shi Fangdao immediately understood, a trace of resentment flashed across his face, and then changed to a smile, saying in a true form: "Dad, I heard that Long Sui has sent you eight other singers. My emperor brother respects you very much, my uncle. My son is just spending his time offering treasures to you, and he hasn't had supper yet, so why don't we both eat and watch."

The King of Anyang laughed and said, "No, singing and dancing are the best, it is better to have fun than to have fun alone. Call your brothers here, let's have a happy life."

Hearing that he was going to be with the three brothers, Shi Fangdao's smile collapsed and said with a bitter face: "Father, aren't you baking your son on a fire rack? My good brothers want to eat me."
