Chapter 943: Insights

I don't know if it's an illusion, Zhou Shaoyu always feels that Yan Lingbin's attitude towards him seems to be a lot better, of course, it may also be that people are really in a good state today.

Well, how did he know that Yan Lingbin, who had dreamed of Zhou Shaoyu continuously, was already a little different from him. Otherwise, how could it be such a kind reminder.

At this moment, the Tang Dynasty was really a little pitiful, the Qinglou was very prosperous at the end of the Tang Dynasty, but the reason was simple, most of those officials were hollowed out, they had no power at all, and they had nothing to do all day long. Some are depressed.

And once you enter the officialdom, it's okay if you don't offend people, and it's indeed a talisman for ordinary people, no matter what, the people don't fight with the officials, but if someone really wants to mess with you, it's far simpler than a whole civilian.

The reason couldn't be simpler, after entering this circle, there are rules that belong to this circle, the simplest example, Zhou Shaoyu is now Dr. Taichang and belongs to Taichang Temple, but now Zhou Shaoyu will not order anything or something.

It is true that this is the norm now, but this in itself is a good reason for the whole thing, and there is no need to go out of your way to find it.

But Zhou Shaoyu doesn't care, he is just curious about the official business before he tries it, it's a joke, he can still look at a little seven-rank official or what.

In contrast, it has increased a little bit of interest in Yan Lingbin, since Yan Lingbin can say this, it shows that Yan Lingbin's vision has never been limited to the acre and third of the Qinglou, and he still pays attention to the situation outside.

This made Zhou Shaoyu a lot satisfied, although raising a vase is not a thing, but if you have talent and brains to do practical things, it is naturally better.

"Oh? It seems that Yan Duzhi knows a lot about officialdom, if you don't mind, you might as well talk about it in detail? Zhou Shaoyu was very curious about what Yan Lingbin could say.

"How can a slave be a little girl." Yan Lingbin hesitated for a moment, seeing that Zhou Shaoyu's gaze did have some expectations, and finally nodded and said, "Since Zhou Langjun is willing to listen, the slave will say a thing or two." ”

"Listen up." Zhou Shaoyu said with a smile and took the initiative to pour a cup of tea.

Yan Lingbin thanked him, thought about his whole thoughts, and said: "Jiedu makes it right, it is needless to say more, and talk about other things." Nowadays, the imperial court does not take the virtuous as the standard, and Zhou Langjun has personal experience in the buying and selling of official positions. In addition, if you choose the right person, even if you are illiterate, you may be able to get an official and a half-job, you can first reward the false title, and then directly enter the office, which will mess up the government. Not only that, military attachés used military force to enter the literature, and it was difficult to distinguish between civil and military affairs in the Manchu Dynasty, and it was even more common for them to receive anything without merit.

Often people who are full of learning and talent are not allowed to be reused, and they are all those who are full of food all day long and have a vegetarian meal in the corpse to hold important positions. Nowadays, there are many people in the court who eat Lu, and the tax revenue of the court is getting less and less, how can the treasury not be empty in the long run?

Bribery of public offices, power and extravagance, such illegal things have long been chaotic, officials are harsh, private debts are expropriated, the service is heavy, the chief officials are brutal, the people are miserable, the injustice is unreasonable, the bend can not be redressed, the sick can not be treated, the dead can not be buried, there is no clothing, hunger and no food, the people are hopeless, they have to ask God to worship the Buddha, which makes the Buddhist temple flourish.

It's not that the little woman has no gods and Buddhas, but the temple doesn't produce, no need to pay taxes, and the partial birth and annexation of land, and even usurious debts cause the people's families to be ruined, all say that the Buddha is merciful, but those fat-headed and big-eared monks really can't afford to say this.

Since ancient times, emperors have been persuading farmers all day long, fearing their hunger, persuading mulberry all day long, and fearing their cold. On the other hand, now...... Ay......

There are barbarians blazing outside, there are secession rebellions, and there are eunuchs chaotic government inside, and the edifice will collapse, and nothing else. ”

Zhou Shaoyu was a little surprised, it is true that he can say that he must have heard others say this remark, but one of them about the Buddhist temple is likely to be Yan Lingbin's own opinion, and ordinary scholars and officials can think about it a lot, even if they notice it, they may not have the courage to say it.

In any case, as a woman in a green building, it is really rare to be able to meet with this.

The current Tang Dynasty is really like this, the people have grievances, sue the state and county, the state and county ignore it, sue the prime minister, the prime minister ignores it, sue Your Majesty, and Your Majesty still ignores it. The top and bottom are all unreliable, and that's it, and there are all kinds of oppression, in order to avoid servitude, some people choose to become monks, and monks don't have to pay taxes.

If there are fewer taxes and the treasury is empty, it will definitely be even more sad for the country, not to mention that the imperial court is about to lose much real power.

In short, all kinds of bad phenomena seem to form a big circle, which is constantly reincarnated, and it will only get worse and worse.

Not long ago, Wang Xianzhi, Huang Chao and other rebel armies met in Caozhou, and the momentum was huge, and Yunzhou and Yizhou were in an emergency.

Wang Xianzhi can say that he will live in a few years, as for Huang Chao, he can only be said to be the nemesis of the Tang Dynasty.

After all, the historical theory 'Tang died in Huangchao and the disaster was based on Guilin'.

Well, the second half is about a guy named Pang Xun a few years ago, with a rebel army of 800 people, he completely sounded the death knell of the Tang Dynasty, and the army lasted more than a year, capturing Xuzhou and the prefectures and counties at the junction of Jiangsu, Anhui, Shandong, and Henan, controlling the Jianghuai region, cutting off the economic channel in the south of the Yangtze River, and the team grew to nearly 200,000 people.

Look, how fierce it is, without this senior to further consume Datang's national strength, Huang Chao may not really have that ability.

In fact, the uprising of Wang Xianzhi and Huang Chao was very much the remnants of Pang Xun, these people were originally hiding from the people after the defeat, and when they saw that someone took the lead in the uprising, they immediately jumped out to keep up.

In short, at this moment, Shandong is already in the midst of war, and the situation is quite bad, which is also funny. It was not until December that the imperial court ordered Song Wei to make Pinglu Jiedu envoy Song Wei recruit grass thieves for the Zhudao camp, and the delay was long enough.

The result was good, before the troops were sent, Wang Xianzhi was still active in the Shandong territory, after the troops were sent, Henan also suffered, and then Anhui and Hubei were also attacked one after another, and the imperial army was defeated, which once caused shock and panic.

Of course, that was all later, and Zhou Shaoyu couldn't stay at that time. As for the moment, few people will take Huang Chao in their eyes, just as a small fight, and now that the leader of the rebel army is Wang Xianzhi, it is not Huang Chao's turn to be in the limelight.

Even if he understands a little bit of Yan Lingbin's talent, Zhou Shaoyu is also quite surprised, the surprise is not only a certain talent shown by Yan Lingbin, on the other hand, since Yan Lingbin can speak so freely without any scruples, it is naturally a trust in Zhou Shaoyu to a certain extent, after all, if some words are passed out, it is not a good thing for Yan Lingbin.

If she is a scholar, it would be fine, but no matter how famous she is, she is just a Qinglou woman, a mere Qinglou woman criticized the court in a big dialect, and scolded a lot of people to go in, ha, do you want to die?
