Notices were posted all over the city, crowded with scholars in front of the notices, some people shook their heads and read them, and from time to time they were interrupted, some people were excited to oppose them, some people were silent, and some people laughed and interrupted.

"Brother Liu, Brother Liu, the officials admire it very much!"

In the teahouse on the other side of the academy, Gu Wei and Liu Han looked at each other with smiles, this idea was given to Gu Wei by Liu Han in private, that is, for the possibility of a large-scale resignation wave, even if there is no resignation tide, these people can be of other use.

Liu Han leaned against the window casually, holding a teacup in his hand, and said lightly: "I don't know if anyone has come to sign up, by the way, Master Gu, I heard that you are also from Yangzhou, and you are studying in that academy in Yangzhou? ”

Gu Wei didn't answer, his expression was a little gloomy, however, Liu Han was behind him, he didn't see it, and after waiting for a long time to hear an answer, he looked at the group of scholars and smiled faintly, turned around and sat down at the coffee table.

"Young people are the easiest to manipulate. ”

Gu Wei didn't move, still looking at the door of the academy, and sighed faintly after a long while: "Yangzhou Academy, the best academy in Yangzhou, I was very envious back then, but unfortunately my family has no money, so I can only study at home." ”

Liu Han was slightly surprised, Gu Wei sighed softly, lowered his head and didn't want to talk anymore, Liu Han also sighed, as if he was very sensitive to the similar fate of the two.

After drinking tea in silence for a while, the two of them looked up at each other at the same time, suddenly smiled, and the two got up at the same time and left the teahouse.

Liu Han rode a horse, and Gu Wei rode in a car, looking like everyone was supporting the carriage.

The carriage drove through the street, and a few scholars rushed out of the teahouse on the side of the street, stopped in front of the carriage, and shouted at the carriage: "Traitor!

"Gu Wei! You have brought disaster to the country and the people!"

Liu Han frowned slightly, and Wei Bao, who was in charge of opening the road in front of the carriage, slowly stepped forward and shouted: "Shut up!

"Slow!" Liu Han kicked the horse's belly lightly, stepped forward slowly, looked at those scholars, and said warmly: "The affairs of the imperial court are handled by the imperial court, you are dissatisfied with Lord Gu, you can go to participate in the debate, question Lord Gu face to face, I believe that Lord Gu will give you an answer, instead of being so impulsive, blocking the road of the imperial court, you must know that there is no proper reason to block the road of the imperial court officials, according to the law of the Great Jin Dynasty, be in a flail for three days, and quickly retreat." ”

"My lord, we are the scholars of the plum blossom book, the reform of the imperial court tax system is a policy to disrupt the country, the imperial court has no such intention, it is the traitor Gu Wei, in order to seek power, he advocates with all his might, and he is really a thief who brings disaster to the country!"

"Shut up!" Liu Han shouted, the sound shook the long street, the scholar's face changed slightly, and he subconsciously took two steps back, Liu Han said calmly: "Lord Gu gave you a chance to speak, eight days later, in Yangzhou Academy, now, everyone, please give way." ”

Please give way, the last three words, the tone was calm and gentle, but the supreme secret method was used, the scholar lost his mind, subconsciously got out of the way, stood on the side, and waited for the carriage to pass, only to wake up, looking at the back of the carriage, very depressed, and angry.

Gu Wei didn't show up from beginning to end.

After this incident, Wei Bao, who opened the road in front, was more careful, but fortunately, there were no more accidents, and he returned to the camp safely and soundly.

There is a registration point at the entrance of the camp, and there are small officials who specially register for registration, but the registration point is empty, and the small officials seem very bored.

Gu Wei looked over and saw that the registration book was blank, and there was no name.

Liu Han shook his head slightly, but Gu Wei didn't care, and told the little official that if someone came to sign up, he would register, and then he would live in the camp, where accommodation was ready, but be careful, don't let people fish in troubled waters, those who don't learn and don't know how to do it can't ask for it.

The little official laughed, but he didn't think so, he had been on the table all day today, and there was no one left, and he was still fishing in troubled waters.

"You're back, two. When Ju Yi saw the two of them, he seemed to have unloaded a heavy burden, and his whole body was relaxed.

"The county orders and county officials have arrived, and they are currently arranged at the pavilion, do you want to meet in advance. The sentence said.

Tomorrow will be held a tax system reform meeting, the county commanders of the following five counties have rushed to Yangzhou one after another, and Mo Qi is responsible for receiving them at the pavilion.

Ju Yu is now in a very embarrassing situation, on the one hand, the imperial court must implement the tax system reform, on the other hand, there is a lot of resistance below, from the gate lord clan to the officials, all oppose, and the consequences of forcibly implementing it are unpredictable.

Both sides dare not offend, but they have to be destined to offend one side, and they don't know who to tell about the bitterness in their hearts.

Ju Yu's thoughts, both Gu Wei and Liu Han are very clear, especially Liu Han, let Ju Yi be the main envoy, Gu Wei is the deputy envoy, it is he who suggested to Xue Yu, he was originally borrowing the sleekness of Ju Yu, Gu Wei's prestige in Shilin, reducing the resistance to salt tax innovation, but I didn't expect the imperial court to take advantage of the trend and launch a comprehensive tax system reform, and it was set in Yangzhou.

It is said that it is a comprehensive tax reform, it is better to say that it is a new policy implemented by the government, and the goal is to target the privileges of the nobles, and its resistance is so great that it can be imagined that it is not comparable to the salt tax reform at all, the latter is just a small fight, but the former is subversive.

At this time, it would be inappropriate to let the sentence be the right envoy again, but to be an iron-fisted person, to dare to break everything with the courage, and to be prepared to die in Yangzhou, otherwise don't want to succeed at all.

"What do you see, they are just the dogs raised by Lu Yu and Zhang's family. Gu Wei snorted coldly.

"It's better to see each other, it's better to do this, Lord Ju, you go and meet them and hear what their opinions are. Liu Han proposed.

Ju Yi immediately agreed, and left with a smile, Gu Wei looked at his back, smiled faintly, and turned around and went to the backyard.

The war has begun, the two armies are facing each other, and the situation is clear.

Liu Han didn't go over, turned around and went to the barracks, and now the security inside and outside the camp was taken over by the Tiger Benwei, and he reformulated the security measures.

"Everyone knows the situation outside, whether the tax system reform can be achieved or not has nothing to do with us, but the safety of the Qin Chaxing camp and the safety of the adults is related to us, so, from now on, everyone wakes up, whoever has a problem, before the court deals with me, I will deal with you first, don't blame me for being ruthless when the time comes!"

Liu Han made it very clear to the officers, so during this time, everyone woke up and did not dare to slack off.

Liu Han first went back to his room to change into civilian clothes, and then inspected the mansion, and then came out of the backyard and walked around the entire Qinchaxing camp.

When I arrived at the gate of the camp, I chatted with the little official who was guarding the Zhaoxian platform at the door, who was in his thirties, was a native of Yangzhou, had read books, had not participated in the tasting, and became a small official in the Yangzhou County Government.

The clerk told him that someone should come back, but most of the people who came to apply were not from the academy and had never participated in the tasting, and most of those scholars refused to apply.

The little official's words were very euphemistic, and he also saw that Liu Han was a military attaché, if Gu Wei or a sentence asked, most of them would not be willing to say it so carefully.

Liu Han didn't want to go back, and there was nothing to do when he went back, so he sat down and chatted with the little official.

"You didn't want to serve as a county magistrate in the past?"

The villain thought about it, but he didn't have that ability. ”

"Do you think this tax reform is good or bad?"

The little official hesitated and didn't answer, Liu Han looked left and right, and smiled: "There are no others here, don't worry, they can't hear it at all." ”

The little official looked left and right, and at the door, except for a few tiger guards, everyone else was far away, so he lowered his voice and said: "According to the small one, this tax system innovation is of course good for us and other small people, but those scholars are not happy, those who have more land pay more taxes, and those who have less land pay less, so I don't have to pay if I don't have land, I don't know, why those scholars want to object, it seems that the sky is falling." ”

"I guess they have a lot of land. Liu Han joked with a smile, and as he was talking, a scholar in an old robe appeared on the corner of the street, he was obviously very careful, looking at it as he walked, hesitating.

Liu Han stared at him, the voice of the little official gradually lowered, and he also stared at him, the scholar quickly noticed, hesitated, and suddenly made up his mind to come over quickly.

When they arrived at the recruitment platform, the scholar saluted the officials and Liu Han, and then asked: "I heard that there is a recruitment here, I want to apply, I don't know if I can?"

The little official nodded slightly: "Your Excellency's name, where did you study, and who is the teacher?"

"Lord Hui, my name is Tang Long, I am studying in the Tang family's private school outside the city, and my teacher's surname is Tang, and my name is cool. ”

The little official didn't ask again, but nodded, and was about to mention and write down Tang Long's name, but Liu Han pressed the roster and pushed it forward.

"I have heard that words are like people," Liu Han instructed the officials, "and in the future, all those who come to apply for the recruitment will be registered by themselves." ”

"Yes, sir. The little official agreed very obediently.

Tang Long glanced at Liu Han, didn't say anything, and wrote down his name and hometown.

After seeing this, the little official shouted to the back: "Come on, please Mr. Tang into the camp." ”

Tang Long was stunned, and looked at the few small servants who came out of the camp in confusion, and the little official explained with a smile: "After registration, you will enter the camp, and the food and accommodation will be managed by the imperial court." ”

Tang Long hesitated and said: "I came in a hurry, and I didn't tell my family, I want to go home first and get some change of clothes, I don't know if it's okay." ”

The little official nodded hesitantly: "Okay, Mr. Tang, go and come back quickly." ”

Liu Han also explained: "It is the kindness of Lord Gu to live in the camp, and Mr. Tang must also know a thing or two about the situation outside, and he came to the camp for the sake of Mr. 's safety." ”

Tang Long's expression suddenly stretched when he heard this, and he nodded slightly: "Thank you, sir, but I still have to go back once, settle down at home, and report to the camp tomorrow afternoon at the latest." ”

Liu Han nodded, and the little official also smiled and arched his hand: "Okay." ”

Tang Long bowed his hand, turned around and walked away quickly, his steps relaxed.

Liu Han looked at his back, thought for a while, got up and walked to the camp, saw Nan Sheng, and beckoned him to come over.

"Send three people to follow that Tang Long to protect him and his family's safety. ”

Nan Sheng nodded, turned around and was about to leave, Liu Han stopped him, and after thinking for a while, he added: "If it is a conflict between him and his family, the family I am talking about only includes his parents, uncles and brothers or something, it doesn't count, if his family is against it, don't interfere, understand?"

"Yes, sir. ”
