Chapter 241 Emperor Wang Yue, the benevolent are invincible!
In the golden autumn of October, the cicadas gradually stopped, the leaves turned yellow, and the fruits were abundant, and the large crops outside Xuchang City were also harvested, and the farmers harvested, threshed, and dried...... Diligent, busy day and night, it is necessary to make the particles return to the warehouse before the rainy season!
After harvesting, the farmers not only selected the best corn and wheat to pay the rent, but also prepared fat sheep, fat pigs, fresh fish, and fruits...... Sent to the master's house in the city, it is said: filial piety!
Therefore, every day, there are farmers from the four towns, driving chariots and horses, pulling things into the city, in groups, in an endless stream, in addition to paying the city tax, but also to accept the inspection of the soldiers defending the city, because there are too many people and vehicles, often crowded and immovable, and there is a long queue at the gate of the city!
"Drive! Drive! --Feed into the city, pedestrians dodge! ”
"They are the convoy of Shuangshui Village, get out of the way quickly, and let the city gate go!"
……………………
At noon, another convoy appeared, about 30 large carts, all driven by young mules, loaded with all kinds of agricultural products, and more than 100 strong young men in shabby cloth clothes, specially responsible for escorting goods!
The convoy crossed the moat, did not go to the end of the queue to wait, but went straight to the city gate, the first car on the white-haired Zhuang head, took out an identity bronze medal from his arms, handed over to the city guards after inspection, immediately unimpeded, even the inspection was exempted!
Seeing this scene, the surrounding convoys were full of envy, but they didn't dare to come forward to ask anything, because they all knew that Shuangshui Village was serving the Wuwu Hou Mansion, and with Da Sima's face, it was naturally unimpeded!
"I've arrived in Xuchang City, I still have to send filial piety, old gentleman, please take care of yourself!"
"Thank you little brother for wanting to send it all the way, the little old man is grateful, and I will definitely thank you if I meet you in the future!"
…………………………
After the convoy entered the city, the last young man who drove the car suddenly pulled the reins, and at the same time, an old man jumped off the car, and the two saluted each other and waved goodbye.
The old man wore a bamboo hat, a coarse cloth coat, and straw shoes, his face was engraved with the color of wind and frost, and most of his hair was gray, no matter what he was wearing, his appearance, and his temperament...... It's no different from the average old farmer in the countryside!
But if you look closely, you will find that the old man has broad shoulders and a thick back, a straight waist, green tendons on his arms, thick calluses on the tiger's mouth, and a simple sword hanging from his waist.
In the book, the secret pen confesses that the old man is none other than Wang Yue, who is invincible with a sword, and whose peerless prestige covers Kyushu, and is known as the emperor!
Wang Yue's swordsmanship is superb, he once taught Huan and Ling two emperors, but unfortunately although there are famous teachers, but there are no high disciples, an emperor regards wealth as his life, an emperor is extravagant, Wang Yue has worked hard for decades in vain, and has not taught the results, so he had to resign and go into hiding!
Over the years, Wang Yue has traveled all over the world, in addition to further honing his swordsmanship, he has also done a lot of things to eliminate violence and peace, this time he came to Xuchang City, he was invited by his friend Yang Biao to kill a big man - Xiao Yi!
However, Wang Yue's swordsmanship is superb, but he never kills innocents indiscriminately, every time he kills people with a sword, he will investigate in detail, the most evil person - will not be spared, and the occasional one who is at fault - small punishment and big commandment, can cause people to obey, never cause people to die, this is also the way of the sword he has learned - the benevolent is invincible!
The deeds of the ghost-faced Xiao Lang have long been widely spread, and Wang Yue has also inquired in many ways, but the answers are different:
Some people say that Xiao Yat is murderous, his hands are bloody, and he likes to collect 'skull cups', but he is a demon who runs out of hell, and not killing it is not enough to be angry among the people!
Some people say that Xiao Yi is both civil and military, he exerts benevolence internally, loves the people like a son, and crusades against the princes externally and expands the territory, which is a godsend to the Han family, praying for him to live a long life!
There are also people who say that Xiao Yi is benevolent outside and treacherous inside, although he has made great contributions to the country, he also has a heart of disobedience, and sooner or later he will replace Cao Cao and become the next traitor who steals the country!
……………………………………
Right and wrong, good and evil...... All kinds of news were like landslides and tsunamis, filling Wang Yue's ears, so that he couldn't tell the truth from the fake, so he had no choice but to check it out in person, and seeing is believing!
If Xiao Yi harms the country and covers the people, and is full of evil, he will risk his life, and he will also behead him and eliminate harm for the country!
On the contrary, if Xiao Yili benefits the country and the people and has a noble character, he will live up to the invitation of his old friend, although the sword in his hand is sharp, he will not kill the innocent person!
Wang Yue came all the way to Xuchang City, and happened to meet the convoy of Shuangshui Village, the young man who drove the car was kind-hearted, and couldn't bear to see an old man walking on foot, so he invited him to sit in the carriage, and he didn't want to laugh along the way, but he drew a black circle for Xiao Yi!
In Wang Yue's opinion, a small mountain village, paying so much 'filial piety', life must be very miserable, and the extortion of the Marquis Mansion is a cruel and unkind magnates!
According to the normal way of thinking, Wang Yue's guess was not wrong, but what he didn't know was that although Shuangshui Village sent a lot of 'filial piety', the days were not miserable at all, on the contrary, they were very rich, because their rent was very low!
At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the people's livelihood withered, so the light tax was light, Emperor Wen was fifteen taxes one, Emperor Jing was reduced by half of the land rent, changed to thirty taxes one, the burden of the peasants was very light, there was enough food to raise children, so the population grew a lot, the society was extremely prosperous, which created the 'rule of Wenjing!' ’
Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, successive years of war, population has decreased sharply, the land is barren, there is a shortage of food, and the original field endowment system has also disappeared.
The tuntian system stipulates: after the peasants harvest the grain, if they use public cattle - official six people four, if they use private cattle - the government and the people are half, compared with the tax in the early Han Dynasty, the exploitation of the tuntian system is heavier, but in the troubled times, hunger is everywhere, the people are very happy when they have something to eat, and they can bear it if the tax is heavy!
Shuangshui Village is Xiao Yi's private estate, and he does not have to pay taxes to the state, just give the master a little 'filial piety', and Xiao Yiding's ratio is: two points, that is, one-fiftieth, which is lower than the field endowment in the early Han Dynasty, and if there is a drought or flood, the land rent will be completely exempted!
As for the melons and fruits, cattle and sheep, fat pigs, and fresh fish that the manor respects...... After the Hou Mansion accepts it, it will also double the reward, so for the farmers, going to the city to send a filial piety is not only not exploitation, but a beauty difference!
The tenants are in shabby clothes, in fact, it is easy to understand, first, when carrying agricultural products, they are reluctant to wear new clothes, so as not to get dirty and torn; The second is that the ladies and ladies of the Hou Mansion are kind-hearted, and when they see the tenants in shabby clothes, they often give more money!
Some people can't help but ask, the Wuwu Hou Mansion has a large population, and the life is considered extravagant, Xiao Yi's income is limited, and he does not exploit the lower-class tenants, where does the money come from, the answer is two: one to earn, two to rob!
As early as the time of Crouching Tiger Mountain, Xiao Yi partnered with Liang Xiaoyu to start the business of 'Wuwu Wine', which has been marketing the world all over the years, and said that the last day has made money, and Wuwu Houfu has gold mines and pastures in Xiliang, and there are salt farms in Xuzhou, which also bring a lot of income!
Zhen Mi is in charge of the real power of the family, using the caravan of the Zhen family, earning countless amounts of money every year, and most of them have entered the Wushou Mansion, for this matter, no one in the Zhen family objected, because there were people with different opinions, and all the people evaporated in the world!
In addition, Xiao Yi fought in the south and the north, and every time he conquered a city, he would get a lot of spoils, from the commander, the general, to the soldiers, and the grooms, all of whom ate a mouth full of oil, especially when he pacified Hebei, he got the treasure of the Yuan family, and it was the existence of gold and silver!
To put it mildly, with the family business of the Hou Mansion without worries, Xiao Yi is to give birth to ten ruined sons and lose ten lifetimes in a row, and it is also inexhaustible, so naturally he will not exploit the tenants, but will treat the commoners well and change a good reputation!
Gossip less, the book returned to the main story, Wang Yue inquired along the way, and soon came to Baihu Street, saw a carved beams and paintings, the mansion with thousands of weather, six pairs of large iron halberds in front of the door, symbolizing the great military merits, a pair of gold plaques on the gate, four big characters on it - Wu Wu Hou Mansion, is the handwriting of the traitor!
"Cao Mengde's calligraphy - the pen is vigorous, vigorous, as if there are millions of male soldiers, no wonder it can level the heroes and unify the Central Plains!
It's a pity that the Han family is declining, the emperor is weak and incompetent, and he can't control this person. Fate? Luck also! ”
As an emperor, Wang Yue has a master, in addition to exquisite swordsmanship, Tao strategy, yin and yang, calligraphy, and music and rhythm...... There are outstanding points, but it's a pity that they can't be used for a lifetime, and they are full of regrets!
After sighing, Wang Yue circled around the Hou Mansion, using his extraordinary hearing to investigate the situation inside, and the result surprised him, in addition to the sound of bells and food, there were also horses neighing, golden eagles howling, and wild wolves howling...... The chaos is at its extreme!
For a high-ranking official, it is not a big deal to loot more heavily and live a more corrupt life, if he is convicted of capital crimes, I am afraid that none of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty have passed the test, but the next thing made Wang Yue extremely dissatisfied, and then gave birth to murderous intentions!
"Da! --Da! Da! ”
In the sound of hurried horses' hooves, a team came up on Baihu Street, the armor was bright, the equipment was lofty, and the queue was also very neat, but the knight was not a man, but a seventeen or eighteen-year-old beautiful girl - the women's army!
From the Three Emperors and Five Emperors to the present, I have never heard of a woman becoming a soldier, but it is in the mansion of the Marquis of Wuxi, raising hundreds of beautiful girls, often galloping across the country, showing off their might, which reminds people of four words - absurdity!
There are two teams of people and horses behind, all of them are wearing furs, carrying bows and arrows, and holding wolf skins, one under the banner of the Xiongnu Royal Court, and the other with the banner of the Xiqiang tribe, all of them are rushing to the Wushou Houfu!
"Drunk and gold-obsessed, playthings are demoralized, greedy for women, colluding with other races...... Such a scourge on the country and the people is really not a pity to die! ”
