In the morning, when Ju Zizhou had not eaten breakfast after brushing his teeth, he was notified by Meng Yan: "Mr. Ju, His Royal Highness Wang Sunzheng sent His Royal Highness to invite you into the palace to explain the Handan Investigation. ”

Ju Zizhou nodded: "I'll ...... after eating What did you say? ”

He originally replied casually, but when he answered, he realized that something was wrong: "What did Qin Zheng say in the original words?"

"His Royal Highness Wang Sunzheng said: Sue my senior brother: Zheng asked him to come to the palace as soon as possible to explain the "Handan Investigation" to me." Meng Yan said in imitation of Ying Zheng's tone.

"Wang Sunzheng?" Ju Zizhou nodded thoughtfully: "I understand." ”

As he spoke, he immediately changed into a wide robe with large sleeves and tied his hair in a bun that he didn't usually take care of.

Now he is fifteen years old, and according to custom, he is considered an adult, and it is okay to tie his hair in a bun.

took out the hosta hairpin that had basically not been used much from the package, pinned it in the bun, and confirmed that he was not untidy in front of the unclear bronze mirror, and Ju Zizhou followed Meng Yan into the palace of King Qin.

Ying Zheng will not need Ju Zizhou to explain "Handan Investigation" to him!

Ju Zizhou understood this early.

If it needs to be explained, Ying Zheng will not memorize "Handan Investigation" for nearly two months.

This kind of meticulous is so detailed that there is not much to explain about what the ranger generally does, and how often the farm tools used by the homesteaders need to be repaired.

But Ying Zheng still said that he would let himself explain it to him.

This incident in itself means another thing - there are big people who want to see him Ju Zizhou!

Ju Zizhou understood this, and immediately changed into loose scholar's clothes, tied his hair in a bun, and wore a hosta.

This is an era that attaches great importance to "etiquette".

In this era, although the "Zhou Li" has been abandoned, the "Zhou Li" itself is actually just something similar to the "daily behavior norms of primary and secondary school students", and the full text is only 30,000 or 40,000 words, most of which are deserted, and there are still 10,000 or 20,000 words of code of conduct that are still running as "daily behavior norms of the aristocracy".

Ju Zizhou rarely interacted with the nobility, and he did not know which part of the aristocratic code of conduct of the nobles of the Qin State followed, the "Zhou Li", which was the daily behavior of the nobility.

However, there is certainly nothing wrong with making sure that you look neat and tidy and look like an ordinary scholar.

Entering the palace, Ju Zizhou was taken to the side hall behind the Green Palace.

Ying Zheng knelt in front of the bookcase and read "Handan Investigation".

Ju Zizhou looked around, except for the maids in the palace, he didn't see anyone beside him.

He sat down and asked, "What?" Today, I suddenly realized that there is something I don't understand, do you want to explain it to your brother? ”

Ying Zheng nodded and said, "I don't quite understand why the most important content is missing from the Handan Investigation. ”

"You mean, I didn't write down the property of those nobles in Zhao State in the investigation report?" Ju Zizhou thought for a while and asked.

Ying Zheng nodded: "Yes, the senior brother wrote in detail about the living conditions of merchants, yeoman farmers, craftsmen, rangers, and slaves in the article, but only the situation of the nobility was missing. ”

He asked, "Why didn't you write it down?" ”

This is not a question that Yingzheng will ask!

Ju Zizhou looked at Ying Zheng, and through Ying Zheng, Ju Zizhou could glimpse an old man from Ying Zheng's words.

This old man must have read the "Handan Survey", and then according to the ideas of this investigation report, he learned about the people's livelihood and economic situation in Zhao State, and then had an understanding of the specific social situation of Zhao State, but he also wanted to understand the more important part - the situation of the aristocracy!

Ju Zizhou thought for a while and said: "In the past, I lived between Wei and Zhao, traveled to Dayi, and walked through small counties. ”

"The places that have been inspected on the spot include Daliang, Handan, Bingxian, Yuxian, Guangyi and other places."

"From the age of twelve to the fifteenth of this year, it took three years before and after, and I talked to many people, merchants, slaves, savages, peasants, rangers, craftsmen."

"I got a lot of material from talking to them."

"The information I have received from their mouths is completely opposite to the great righteousness I have received from the mouths of nobles and scholars!"

"Many wonders have never been seen or heard."

"I think the situation in the population of these people at the bottom is found in other places, in many places, and the so-called truths and righteousness that contradict the words of those who have experienced them all show that they are out of touch with the foundation of facts and must be quickly corrected!"

"I think the purpose of the rulers to change the decree is to make it better for the lives of artisans, yeoman farmers, rangers, and slaves."

"I want them to benefit."

"Because only by benefiting them will they be better able to champion those who care more for them."

"Once there is a king who can feed them, and at the sound of an order, they can stand up and fight, and the combination of the small county and the big county will be like a storm, and the speed will be abnormal, no matter how strong the enemy is in front of them, it will be torn apart!"

"And if you want to make a difference to the lives of these people, you must really understand what kind of life these people are living now, and not listen to the half-truths and empty words of the nobles!"

"That's why I didn't write directly about the nobles in the investigation report."

"But in many places, I actually have a description of their daily lives."

"When I wrote about the rangers, I wrote that the aristocrats took pride in raising rangers as doormen, and they often competed with whomever had more doormen, and whose doormen were capable and famous."

"When I wrote about the merchants, I wrote who the nobles behind the giant merchants of the Zhao Kingdom were, and how much money these giant merchants would give to the people behind them every year."

When I wrote about yeoman farming, I also described in detail that for different people, the nobles had "big and small" harvesting grain. ”

"Lend grain with a "small bucket", and return the grain with a "big bucket", so that they can collect a few more grains, and then sell grain at a high price in the winter, or give free soup porridge, in the name of Bomei. ”

Ju Zizhou said, looking at Ying Zheng: "How can you say that I didn't write it?" ”

"I just didn't sort out these people individually!"

Ying Zheng nodded: "Thank you for your teachings!" ”

After that, Ying Zheng looked at the screen behind Ju Zizhou.

"Papapapa" The old man smiled and walked out with his palms.

He looked at Ju Zizhou in amazement, and sat in the position of the original Yingzheng.

Ying Zheng obediently shifted his position and sat on the side serving tea.

"Sir is really talented!" The old man took the hot tea from Yingzheng with both hands and presented it in front of Ju Zizhou: "I thought that Mr. was so old, even if he was talented, his knowledge was not deep, but Mr. could understand the original meaning of politics, which is really amazing!" ”

Ju Zizhou took the tea, stood up and bowed, then knelt down and gave the tea to the old man in front of him: "Zizhou, meet His Majesty King Qin!" ”

Qin Wang Yingzhu nodded, took the tea, and took a sip: "Which country is Mr. from?" ”

When ordinary scholars lobby the monarch, they must introduce themselves by telling their nationality, surname, surname, ancestry, and teacher's lineage, and then say their names.

But Ju Zizhou omitted a whole bunch of things.

Qin Wang Yingzhu was a little curious.

Ju Zizhou sighed in his heart.

That's why I hate meeting these nobles the most.

After asking the ancestors, ask the teacher, and ask the nationality after asking the teacher.
