Chapter 152: Lin Shan's Letter

As soon as the holy decree of the imperial examination and the martial arts came out, coupled with the swiftness of the Jinyi Guard, it soon spread throughout the Jiuyuan Dynasty.

Some people scoff, some people wait and see, some people have the attitude of giving it a try, and some people want to show their ambitions and display their ambitions.

This holy decree is a hope and a light for the children of the poor family, and the people who pay attention to the ability can live in it, and those who have the ability can be admitted, but as the children of the poor family, they are still worried about fraud in the officialdom, after all, the previous officials were recommended by officials from all over the world, and if you want to recommend you, you must have money, not necessarily the ability, and the upper officials know this, but they just turn a blind eye.

But even so, they still have to give it a try, not for anything else, just this time after Lu Jiuyuan ascended the throne, the big change of officialdom gave them the courage to try, but for those who cultivate martial arts, martial arts are a little unfriendly, the children of the poor family have no resources and no powerful exercises, and there are too few people who want to cultivate to the innate realm, and the martial arts are mainly aimed at those martial arts families.

On the other hand, after Lu Jiuyuan made the holy decree, he thought about it again, the lack of officials in various places still cannot be made up for by the imperial examination, especially the officials in the two positions of county guard and prefect, the officials of the two positions of county guard and prefect are the top priority, if there is any problem, the remaining prefect and prefect are equally important.

The last three of the imperial examination seem to have 360 people, but it is also necessary for the dynasty to have such a talented literati, and the upper and lower dynasties themselves are sparsely populated, except for the urban area, the rest of the place is basically empty, especially outside the city.

And if you really take the top three and 360 people, it must be uneven, it is better to take a little less and take one hundred and eighty people, the first top champion list eye tanhua jinshi and the third person, the second class jinshi fifty-seven people, the third class with one hundred and thirty jinshi, and the quality can be guaranteed, but this is bitter Xun Yu Li Nan, one hundred and eighty people is still not enough.

These are considered by Xun Yu, the more he thinks about it, the more he feels a headache, and suddenly finds that being an emperor is not so easy to be, and he doesn't know why so many people like this position, is it just to covet glory? That's too tasteless.

"Zhao Gao, how is the matter that I asked you to investigate?" Lu Jiuyuan asked in the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, according to Jinyiwei's intelligence, potatoes now weigh hundreds of thousands of catties, and they have been popularized in Shangdang County and Taiyuan County since three years ago, and now after Your Majesty gives an order, potatoes will gradually become popular in the other four counties." Zhao Gao said.

The yield of potatoes is indeed very high, in the past few years, except for some people to eat, all the others were planted, the purpose is to increase the amount of seeds, and now the seeds are almost enough, and it is not a problem to popularize the entire Jiuyuan Dynasty, and the potatoes have all been handed over to the people to deal with themselves.

"Well, that's good!" Hearing this, Lu Jiuyuan nodded and said, It's really good, but it will take six years to make more people have enough to eat, but if you want to eat enough to grow potatoes, you still need land, and it happened to let Zhao Gao investigate, "What about land rights?" ”

"Your Majesty, there was a large part of the influence of Lord Zhao in the household department, but then there were some people who did not support it, and these people were originally related to the Jade King, the Yu King and the De King, and later with the help of Lord Li and General Zhang Liao, who also commanded Linyi, those who should be suppressed." Zhao Gao said unequivocally.

"How much land is there for the people?"

How did Lu Jiuyuan know that Jinyiwei and Zhang Liao were not suppressed at all, but directly abolished all those families, handed over the land rights to Zhao Jiulong to deal with, and all the other properties were used as the treasury, and the current treasury can be said to be quite sufficient.

"Your Majesty, Lord Zhao, the head of the household department, is distributed according to the planting capacity and population of each household, and under normal circumstances, the annual harvest of each household is enough to eat and the seeds of the second year."

"Alas! It's still too little, and I remember that there should be a lot of land. Hearing this, Lu Jiuyuan frowned and said, the weather and human factors, this can only meet the problem of food and clothing, it is still very serious, "You can draft a decree, let Li Ru order a part of the Jinyi Wei to sort out all the uncultivated land, divide the original abandoned land, and use it for the people to reclaim, and the rest must not be reclaimed." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Hearing this, Zhao Gao immediately went to do what Lu Jiuyuan arranged.

In fact, these should not be used, but Lu Jiuyuan does not have any more abundant food at the moment, he can only reclaim the previously reclaimed and abandoned land, as for the uncultivated land is better to stay, the trees and forests of the uncultivated land also have a powerful role and cannot be underestimated.

At this time, the envoy of the Xia Dynasty slowly returned to the Xia Dynasty with serious injuries, and when he just entered the border of the Xia Dynasty, he told the border guards all what he had heard and seen in the Jiuyuan Dynasty, but it was not the truth, but the Jiuyuan Dynasty was said to be worthless, saying that the Jiuyuan Dynasty did not have powerful generals and the like, and the purpose was naturally to avenge the broken arm.

"General Xia, Xia Guan was ordered to go to the Qingyu Dynasty, which is now the Jiuyuan Dynasty and Qin, but Lu Jiuyuan, the emperor of the Jiuyuan Dynasty, not only did not keep his promise, but also asked someone to cut off the left hand of the lower official, fortunately the heavens favored him, otherwise the lower official would not be able to return to Beijing to resume his life, and asked the general to send this letter to Kyoto Xia Cheng, so that His Majesty could take advantage of Lu Jiuyuan's first ascension to the throne and the unstable foundation to beat him and catch him off guard."

The General's Mansion in the mountain county north of the Xia Dynasty, Xia Hua looked at the letter that Lin Shan gave him, he didn't think anything about it, he thought that Lin Shan provoked someone to be so seriously injured, but the content of the letter made him full of anger, but there was nowhere to go, he was one of the three generals of the Xia Dynasty, and he was one of the faces of the Xia Dynasty.

After reading the letter, Xia Hua could only look at the north from afar, the grief and anger on his face and the squeak of his fists made him finally relaxed, he knew what to do at the moment, since Lin Shan came to the letter, then the content of the letter was true, but he was a little puzzled, why Lin Shan fainted as soon as he arrived in Shanjun, would it be a bit too coincidental, but it was still important to believe, and Lin Shan's matter would be considered later.

"Someone!" Xia Hua shouted.

Because he knew that the letter had to be sent to Xia Cheng.

"General!"

"Find the best messenger and let him deliver this letter to Your Majesty quickly."

"Yes, General!"

After the letter was sent away, Xia Hua immediately picked up the map and studied the southernmost cities of Sanchuan County of the Jiuyuan Dynasty, and if he wanted to fight with the Jiuyuan Dynasty in the future, he must find out the shape clearly, otherwise he would not be worthy of being the commander of an army.
