Jiang Anyi saw the fatigue from Yu Zhijie's smile, and asked with concern: "Master Yu is tired, and you have to pay attention to your body when you work for the country." ”

"It doesn't matter, every day." Yu Zhijie said. Yu Qingle changed his image in front of his father, stood up and stood behind Yu Zhijie, and flatteringly massaged his shoulders.

After closing his eyes and enjoying himself, Yu Zhijie said to his son: "Le'er, you go and arrange the wine and food, and say a few words to Anyi for your father." ”

Jiang Anyi saw that Yu Zhijie was a little strong, and stretched out his hand and said, "Master Yu, I'll take the pulse for you." ”

Yu Zhijie said with a smile: "When did you learn to diagnose the pulse, it's really amazing." ”

Jiang Anyi knew how to diagnose the pulse, three fingers on the Taiyuan acupoint, the meridian canal, and the column missing acupoints, Yu Zhijie smiled slightly, did not say anything about Jiang Anyi's mistake, closed his eyes and leaned back on the chair, and let Jiang Anyi diagnose the pulse.

A cool feeling flowed into Jiang Anyi's fingertips into his body, and Yu Zhijie felt very comfortable. Coolness circulates in the body, Yu Zhijie thought to himself that this is probably the true qi he has heard of, An Yi is a master of the inner family, he is using the true qi to regulate his own breathing.

"Master Yu is calm, don't think too much." Jiang Anyi's voice came from his ears, and Yu Zhijie was busy collecting his mind. The coolness spread to the head, and the originally somewhat dizzy head became clear and calm, and as the coolness traveled all over the body, Yu Zhijie involuntarily relaxed, tiredness swelled up, and sat on the chair and snored into a dream.

When he opened his eyes and saw that the candles had been lit in the study, Yu Zhijie felt refreshed and comfortable, as if he was more than ten years younger. Standing up and stretching out his arms and legs, he felt much lighter, Yu Zhijie smiled: "Anyi's divine skills are also, the old man feels much lighter." ”

Just now for Yu Zhijie to dredge the meridians, Jiang Anyi found that there were a lot of blockages in Yu Shi's body, although he spent his true qi to open it for him, but the symptoms were not cured, and it would not take long to recover. After thinking about it, Jiang Anyi said: "Master Yu is a little overworked, and the depression in the body accumulates, I have a way to practice qi, Master Yu meditates for half an hour before going to bed every day, which should be able to strengthen the body and get rid of all kinds of diseases." ”

Saying that, Jiang Anyi passed on the exercises of calming the mind and calming qi transformed from the Mingyu Heart Sutra to Yu Zhijie, Yu Zhijie knew that this method of practicing qi was very rare, and patiently listened to Jiang Anyi's explanation, and learned for another half an hour.

Dinner has already been hot and cold, hot and cold, the time has passed, Yu Zhijie said with a smile: "It's time to delay Anyi's dinner, let's talk while eating." ”

Home-cooked food, no deliberate arrangement, Yu Zhijie sat at the top, Jiang Anyi and Yu Qingle accompanied each other. Yu Zhijie first raised his glass to thank Jiang Anyi for conditioning and teaching him exercises, Yu Qingle asked curiously: "Anyi, can I become a martial arts master after learning this kung fu, can I learn it?" "Everyone has a martial arts dream, and Yu Qingle is no exception.

Jiang Anyi said with a smile: "It's just a way to meditate and nourish your qi, as long as you can sit still, you can naturally learn, you can keep fit, and you can't fight." ”

Yu Zhijie glared at Yu Qingle and reprimanded: "You are in your thirties, and you are still not doing your job all day long, and your daughter-in-law complained to your mother again, saying that you were secretly visiting the Qinglou, and Yong'er was about to go to school, and you didn't know how to pay attention to it." "Yong'er, Yu Leyong, the son of Yu Qingle, was born by Zhang Yuzhu, and is seven years old this year.

Seeing that Yu Qingle was embarrassed, Jiang Anyi diverted the topic and asked: "Master Yu, this time I entered Beijing for the Hajj, but the Son of Heaven intended to keep me in Beijing?" ”

"Not bad", Yu Zhijie said: "It is decided to stay in Beijing, but the Son of Heaven has not yet decided where to place you?" ”

Knowing that he couldn't go back to Huazhou, Jiang Anyi was a little disappointed, and drank all the remaining wine in the cup sullenly, and said, "I'm really reluctant." ”

Yu Zhijie has been in office for many years, understands Jiang Anyi's mood, and persuades: "The iron-clad official of the yamen and flowing water, as long as he can benefit one party, it will be the same everywhere. ”

What Master Yu said is that An Yi respects you with a cup. ”

After eating a mouthful of food, Yu Zhijie said: "The last time Zichen Hall discussed your placement, Kong Xiang said to let you be a Zhongshu waiter, so that the old man stopped, this official seems to be infinitely beautiful, but in fact, it is unpredictable, your temperament is too upright, it is better not to sit in this position." ”

"I have already heard Fang Qingzheng say this, and he also asked me to be more considerate of Master Yu's intentions in saying this, I am very clear about Master Yu's intentions, and it is too late to be grateful, how can there be any bad thoughts. It's just that Master Yu asked me to go to Suzhou and Shaozhou Anyi, but I couldn't listen. It's not that these two states are far away, but because I take care of my family, I want to work in Weizhou, Renzhou, and Lizhou near Texas, so that I can take my mother to take up the post and support. ”

Yu Zhijie nodded silently and said, "This matter is that the old man thought too simply, and he didn't ask you what he meant." Fortunately, the Son of Heaven has made up his mind to keep you in the capital, and he will not be mentioned in foreign affairs. Li Jingyin suggested to the Son of Heaven that you should go to Jingzhaoyin to be a young Yin, I think the Son of Heaven is quite moved, the situation in Beijing is complicated, and this young Yin is afraid that it is even more difficult to be a waiter in Zhongshu. ”

Jiang Anyi frowned and sighed: "There is wine and drunkenness today, and I don't bother to think about him." No matter how it is arranged, it is necessary to uphold the heart and serve faithfully. ”

"That's a big deal!" Yu Zhijie stroked his beard and smiled: "The heart of peace and righteousness can show the sun and the moon, and the old man respects you with a cup." ”

After filling Master Yu with wine, Jiang Anyi asked: "Master Yu, I heard that this year's national tax has exceeded 35 million taels, and the silver deposit in the treasury has exceeded 50 million taels. ”

Yu Zhijie sighed and said: "Cooking oil with fire seems to be prosperous, but in fact, there are hidden worries everywhere, and you can't be careless." ”

Jiang An said puzzledly: "It's better than the empty treasury a few years ago." ”

"This year's tax is 35.2 million taels, an increase of one and a half compared with three years ago, and the silver in the treasury does exceed 50 million taels, and the court is indeed a lot richer than before, but if it is called a prosperous era, I am afraid it is not possible, according to the old man, it is only a precursor to ZTE, and whether it can be ZTE depends on this ten years." Yu Zhijie? Step lotus? Elder Feed?/p>

Jiang Anyi sat upright and listened to Master Yu's words, and even Yu Qingle was infected by the atmosphere, so he stopped his cup and listened.

"The tax has grown rapidly, but the number of acres of land has not increased much, although the implementation of the tax has increased for one field, but it is impossible to reach a growth rate of one and a half."

Jiang Anyi retorted: "Master Yu, the land tax in my Huazhou has not increased much, but the commercial tax has stabilized at more than four million taels, mainly the income from the commercial tax. ”

Yu Zhijie snorted and said, "Will the old man not know that the business tax has increased greatly?" You Huazhou is because of the establishment of border cities, the east of Beijing, the west of the city of commercial tax to dig away a part of the big growth, in addition to this part, I think Huazhou's tax empowerment of three million taels is good. ”

Being said by Master Yu, Jiang Anyi shrugged his shoulders and smiled embarrassedly.

"The old man's concern is that the business tax has increased too much. The sharp increase in state taxes has caused other states to follow suit and pay special attention to the circulation of commerce, and I think that most of this increase is due to the increase in commercial taxes. Yu Zhijie said worriedly: "Three years ago, the palace test of the Son of Heaven asked 'the four people of the country, Shinong and industry, which is more important, please talk about it?'" The test of expounding the view of attaching equal importance to the four peoples has been selected. I heard that you preached the argument that 'scholars are the head, agriculture is the body, industry and commerce are the siblings, and the cooperation of the four people can move forward', and many Huazhou scholars copied your arguments. ”

Jiang Anyi's face was pale, Huazhou was able to win nineteen people in one subject, which was unprecedented, and it was related to what he said, which made his status irreplaceable in the eyes of Huazhou scholars, and he could get the respect of the master wherever he went.

Yu Zhijie glanced at him and continued: "The old man also agrees with this statement, but it can't be achieved overnight, agriculture is the foundation of the country, and it should be the most important." However, in order to figure out the mind of the Son of Heaven, the officials of the world have vigorously developed commerce, and even encouraged the abandoned people to become businessmen, and after three years of building martial arts, the area south of the Yangtze River was reduced by 80,000 hectares of fertile land, turned into mulberry fields and melon and fruit fields, and cultivated silkworm chrysalis to draw silk and weave silk, and sell them in the Western Regions. It seems that the commercial tax has increased greatly, but the grain eaten by the people has to be purchased from Jiangbei, and it is thanks to the good weather in the past few years, and the great success of Tuntian, so that no trouble has occurred, and the old man is afraid that this will hurt the fundamentals. ”

Jiang Anyi's scalp was numb, he didn't expect that his vigorous promotion of business would cause hidden worries in the Jiangnan area, and it seemed that everything he did was aimed at the local situation, and he couldn't be careless.

"What's more, for the sake of performance appraisal, they do their best to fish, eat food, and after two years of promotion, they will be promoted to other places, and the deficit will be left to the next office, and the next office will eat again, so that the deficit left behind will become bigger and bigger, and the people will suffer." Yu Zhijie hated the authentic way.

"Why don't you punish this generation severely, the court should investigate thoroughly." Jiang Anyi said loudly.

Yu Zhijie sighed: "The hundred officials headed by Prime Minister Kong Province obeyed the will of the Son of Heaven and sang more praises of virtue, and the Son of Heaven was happy when he saw the increase in taxes. ”

Jiang Anyi was silent, there is his "credit" in this, I really didn't expect it, no wonder it is said that the south orange and the north orange, the good scriptures will also be read bad by the crooked mouth monk.

"The Son of Heaven intends to go on another northern expedition, although there are some savings in the treasury, I am afraid that they are only enough for this big battle, what should I do after the war? Exhausting potential is not a blessing for the community. In front of his disciples, Yu Zhijie spoke freely, and Jiang Anyi broke out in a cold sweat.

Yu Qingle said indifferently: "Daddy, you are a little worried, you go to the street, which does not say that it is now Jianwu Dazhi, the food and clothing of ordinary people is much wider than a few years ago, and the life is getting better and better, my perfume shop has a hundred bottles of perfume every day, a bottle of a hundred taels of silver, and it will be sold out in less than an hour, and many Hu merchants will stand in front of the store and line up on the fourth watch." Anyi, let me tell you, there are actually people who hire people to line up, a position of 100 yuan, and there are many scoundrels on the street who make a living by queuing for others. ”

"What do you know, the people are greedy for fun, extravagance and comparison have become the norm, once there is a catastrophe, there will be no accumulation, and the family will be ruined." Yu Zhijie shook his head and sighed: "An Yi, if you really become Jingzhao Shaoyin, you must find some way to reverse this bad trend in Jingzhong." ”

Listening to Jun's words, Jiang Anyi's mood became heavy, and he nodded in response.
