In these years, whether it is the accumulation of the treasury, the local political achievements, or the number of household registrations, there have never been achievements, the governance of Zongwenjing is not weak, and the crazy rise of household registration has become one of the topics that hundreds of officials talk about, and the local galloping road, water transportation channels, official learning, all of which show the glory of Jianning's prosperous era.

However, the year of Jianning is also a period of many disasters and difficulties.

Snow plagues, droughts, and locust plagues are continuous, all of which are rapidly consuming the national strength of the Han Dynasty and restricting the continued prosperity of the Han Dynasty. After the disaster in Jiqing, Guoyuan immediately proposed to divert the water of the river to irrigate the fields.

For these things, he and Zheng Xuan, Fu Zhu and others carefully discussed, with the support of the granaries of the two places, the people picked up the iron hoe, and began to start construction under the leadership of the officials, Xing Ziang also allocated a lot of manpower, went to Jizhou for assistance, these manpower, naturally Dong Zhuo from the north of the rude barbarians, Yuan Feng bitter face, but also from the temple to pull out the aid.

Under such circumstances, the Son of Heaven missed the Emperor more and more, and in order to be able to find a way to fill the vacancy in the treasury, the Son of Heaven convened a court meeting.

As soon as the court discussion began, the hundred officials began to impeach Wang Fu, they blamed all the disasters of these years on Wang Fu's body, and said bitterly, as long as the Son of Heaven can cook the Wang Jiexin, the catastrophe will not come, and the people of the Han Dynasty will not have to suffer again, for such remarks, the Son of Heaven has always been indifferent, as early as the early years of Jianning, the old lady has been repeatedly impeached, all said that it is because of his fault, which has led to continuous natural disasters for many years.

After the death of the old lady, didn't this disaster still happen?

Among the ministers, only Yuan Feng did not participate, it seems that he has no extra energy to fight against Wang Fu, he proposed, the imperial court must establish a new source of finance, it is imperative to increase the tax on salt, iron, tea and wine, otherwise the treasury is difficult to support such a heavy pressure at the same time, for Yuan Feng's remarks, most of the courtiers are opposed.

How can the pressure on the treasury be shared with the common people? This must be wrong, they are all great sages who have the people of the world in their hearts, and they can't allow such a thing to happen, at this moment, they have become saints who worry about the country and the people, and they are crazy at Yuan Feng, in their mouths, Yuan Feng is already a traitor like Wang Fu.

Oppressing the people, exploiting the people, such behavior, even worse than Wang Fu, Yuan Feng has a hard time arguing, the first to attack Yuan Feng is the great Si Nong Zhang Ji, Zhang Ji as the most important Jiuqing under his command, he has coveted his position for a long time, at this moment, he rarely grasped Yuan Feng's handle, how can he have the intention of letting him go, at this time, his allies in the court also joined him, began to abuse.

Looking at Zhang Ji's face, Yuan Feng was furious in his heart, but he did not reprimand.

Among the ministers, Cao Song supported Yuan Feng, the Cao family has always been the most loyal minister around the Son of Heaven, and these sages have always been incompatible, Cao Song mocked a little: "The public cherishes the people, and the people are affected, why don't the public help them with their family property?" ”

Zhang Ji sneered and replied: "I'll go back now, and I'll donate all my family property... Don't leave a little bit, I heard that Cao Gong's family is very rich... Like me? ”

Seeing that the ministers were about to quarrel again, the Son of Heaven forcibly suppressed their contradictions, and asked Yuan Feng if there was any better solution, Yuan Feng said helplessly: "If the Son of Heaven refuses to raise taxes, he can only fund the land of Sanhan, build a wharf, and use the story of Yangzhou to start sea trade..."

For this policy, there are still many sages who oppose it, Zhang Ji even proposed that Yuan Feng's move is to harm the people's power, and these people are not worthy of being the three princes, the Son of Heaven just glanced at him coldly, and did not say anything, and ordered the end of the court meeting, under the crazy attack of Zhang Ji and others, Yuan Feng's two policies were not successfully passed.

In addition, after the end of the court meeting, there was news in Luoyang, informing the public of Yuan Feng's idea of wanting to raise taxes, and adding fuel and vinegar, thinking that Yuan Feng wanted to raise all taxes including agricultural tax, vehicle and vessel tax, and human tax.

The reaction of the scholars was the most intense, they gathered around Yuan's mansion, and they did not abuse, but read many Confucian classics over and over again, most of which were about loving the people and benevolent government, etc., used to ridicule Yuan Feng's atrocities and harsh government.

The students didn't join in the fun.

The scholars gathered at the gate of Yuan's mansion, they were all attracted by people, even if it was the embroidered messenger who came, they were not afraid, they did not go to abuse the three princes, nor did they go to beat, they were just studying, what about Zhang He's eagle dog?

While reading, someone suddenly pushed open the door and walked out of Yuan's mansion.

Seeing someone walk out, the soldiers read aloud even louder, and they looked sarcastically at the man who came out, who was extremely young, frowned, and walked up to them step by step, his eyes were cold, and he said, "You can return!" ”

When a scholar heard this, he suddenly got up, held the book in his hand, and read it aloud to him, this is the meaning of some provocation, these people are all attracted by Zhang Ji and his allies' henchmen, they wish that the scholars and the people of the Yuan Mansion had some fight, in this way, Yuan Feng's handle will only be more, and there is no harm to them themselves!

The man saw the scholar like this, so he turned around and returned to the mansion, the scholar saw that he had forced back the people in the Three Princes' Mansion, and his heart was even more proud, cheering for his victory, the man was also excited, turned to look at many scholars, and read in his mouth: "Zi said: Harsh government fierce..."

"Huh~~~"

He never could say the last two words, the crossbow arrow flew through his chest, he was knocked away by this huge force, flew up and fell in the middle of many scholars, the scholars stood up in horror, and looked at the gate of the Yuan family, just now the man was holding a yellow crossbow, and there were several soldiers standing behind him, these scholars wanted to question this person, the young man did not give them this opportunity at all, and the yellow crossbow in his hand was fired again.

The soldiers also shot crossbows one after another, the soldiers fell down one by one, the rest of the people roared, frantically fled around, the young man simply threw the yellow crossbow in his hand, pulled out his sword, and began to chase and kill, the soldiers howled and cried, the ghosts cried wolves, and fled for their lives in all directions, the young man was very calm, a sword and a sword, and the soldiers also had a lot of resistance, but they couldn't hold it in his hands.

The elite soldiers of the Northern Army also followed the pursuit, and at the door of the entire Yuan family's mansion, blood flowed like a river, and corpses were piled up.

Yuan Shu stood in the middle of this river of blood, his eyes were cold, he wiped his sword, and said in a low voice: "The father is humiliated, and the son can push the blade..."

"Captain...."

"Come with me to Zhang Ji's mansion...."

"Yes!!"
