Xu Qilin smiled and said: "It's not that you can't cheat, it's just that you don't make friends with some messy people, especially what kind of horses and the like, it's best to stay away." ”

"Pony?!" Fang Er smiled and said, "I understand, they are all guys who don't have any skills, and they don't want to mess around with them!" ”

Cut! Xu Qilin pursed his lips with disdain and said, "What about you, didn't you almost become a colt?" ”

Fang Er rolled his eyes and said, "It's not that it didn't work out!" If there is such a trouble, it is estimated that Princess Shang will not be needed in the future. ”

After speaking, the girl grinned, "That's good, I'd rather marry a good girl from a good family." ”

There is nothing to do with the princess, and the government is on the ground.

For some people, marrying a princess is a ladder to prosperity; For others, however, it is the beginning of a loss of freedom and strict control.

Fang Er's temperament was rough and reckless, and he only liked to play with guns and sticks, which was not the best standard for choosing a son-in-law at that time. Moreover, the royal pool is muddy, and it is still not a good trip.

What Li Yuanchang, Li Yuanjing, what Du He, Chai Lingwu, Xue Wanche, and what Princess Hepu are, they are all pits, and it is not good to get on them.

"Which girl is Brother Jun optimistic about?" Adjani brought the meat skewers, and Fang Er was already familiar with them, and joked with a smile: "The slave family will give you the matchmaker, and I will ensure that it can be done." ”

Fang Er laughed, picked up the meat skewer and stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely: "It's good to see you as a girl, what's the matter, have you ever thought about getting married!" ”

Adjani blinked, reached out and snatched the half-bitten meat skewer from Fang Er, and said angrily, "I won't give it to you, villain." ”

Fang Er was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly apologized: "Don't make trouble, jokes are serious." ”

Xu Qilin smiled and said: "Adjani can't get married until she is fifteen years old, and she still has to be a wife, but she won't be a child." ”

Adjani smiled and said, "If Ah Lang gives the slave family a dowry, the slave family will not have to work hard to save money." ”

Struggling to save money? Xu Qilin glanced at the girl and said, "What a hard method, tell me about it." ”

"It's hard work!" Adjani handed the meat skewer to Xu Qilin, and said very naturally: "I am reluctant to eat, I am not willing to wear, a copper coin is eager to be broken in half and spent, the slave family is very pitiful." ”

This time, even Fang Er couldn't help laughing, if you want to talk about other provinces, it's barely reasonable. If you want to eat, it is the number one foodie in the house.

Adjani glared at Fang Er, turned her head to Ah Lang, and smiled again.

Xu Qilin also didn't have a trick, waved his hand and said: "Poor one, don't save it in the future, I will pay the dowry." ”

"Thank you, Alang." Adjani is also joking, Ah Lang is good to her and Scarlett, how can she worry about the future?

Fang Er ate and drank for a while, and then remembered the matter of Master Sun's investigation, so he asked, "What about the master of investigating the case in Jingzhao Mansion, I still don't have a clue." ”

Xu Qilin smiled and said, "There are too few clues in the case, and it's normal that they can't be found." ”

Fang Er frowned slightly and said, "I wondered, who would have such a big enmity with you and want to kill you." ”

Xu Qilin pondered for a moment and said, "It may not be that there is much hatred or resentment. In our opinion, some people have to get rid of things that don't happen. It's precisely because I can't think of anyone I have a mortal enmity with that this case can't be investigated. ”

After a pause, Xu Qilin continued: "But it is true to say that my actions have made many people dissatisfied. Let's just talk about immigrating to Hexi, the imperial court has checked the households, and some hidden populations have been found, and how many families have been punished. ”

"Can this also be counted on your head?" Fang Er threw down a bamboo stick and said very angrily: "Kuhu didn't start with you, I didn't come once in a few years before. ”

"It's unreasonable to talk to some people." Xu Qilin said: "Maybe some people are angry when they see that a certain limelight is very strong, and buy an assassin to kill people!" ”

Fang Er shrugged his shoulders and said, "If you want to say that, the case really can't be investigated." ”

Xu Qilin smiled faintly and said, "I didn't want to find out to the end, I was sent by the imperial court." ”

"What then?" Fang Er was a little puzzled and asked, "There is no reason to prevent thieves every day, right?" ”

Xu Qilin said: "Normal protection is enough, can you still be scared not to go out?" I'm always worried about this, I'm afraid of that, and I can't live this day. ”

Fang Er stretched out his thumb to praise one and said, "Admire, admire." ”

At this time, Xiao Ye walked over, stretched out his hand and pushed Xu Qilin, and said, "Draw me two more portraits, one is in the flowers, and the other is on horseback." ”

You and I are the camera, left and right. Xu Qilin smiled bitterly and stroked his forehead.

Fang Er smiled, bowed his head to eat and drink.

Although Adjani cheats in mahjong, this Ajani is annoyed and beats people! I don't know if I learned it from her sister, but she shot quickly and slapped her brain.

Smack, smack! Hit that one accurately, one crispy.

Although it doesn't hurt much, it's a shame to hit it. The last time he slapped Fang Er, he was stunned for a long time, and said to Xu Qilin in private, has this girl practiced, why is she so fast?

Xu Qilin also deliberately played badly, telling Fang Er that it was the long-lost Jianghu stunt "Rulai Divine Palm". Take a picture, refresh your mind, and realize it.

So, Fang Er had an epiphany. Don't dare to mess with Ake, and when you get close, you always guard against being photographed again.

In fact, no one knew that this brain-slapping door turned out to be a very boring game when Daya and Xiaoye were nourished in the soul detention order.

Therefore, Xiao Ye, who was photographed by Daya, shot extremely fast, without warning, and couldn't be prevented!

At first, Saya was just a boring little game, playing with Scarlett and Adjani. Although the shooting was not heavy, Scarlett and Adjani were also filmed doubting their lives.

Later, whoever provoked her would shoot her, and the shot was naturally much heavier. The subordinates in the house, as well as Fang Er, have all been "poisoned" by her.

Xu Qilin also took two hits when he was joking, marveling at the speed of Xiao Ye's shot, but he didn't take it seriously, and even played this brain-slapping game with Xiao Ye.

"Okay, draw it in two days." Xiao Ye didn't care about Xu Qilin's head and smiled bitterly, and directly agreed for him.

Xu Qilin is also helpless, who made him owe Xiaoye!

Compared with Daya's little cunning, Xiaoye is very real, and he doesn't hide what he knows, which benefits Xu Qilin a lot.

And through distraction and Xiao Ye's possession, Xu Qilin's understanding of the Soul Detention Order has deepened.

At the same time, he also realizes that if the power of the Soul Arrest continues to grow and he becomes more proficient in wielding it, he will have an invincible weapon.

……………

The changes in Datang are not obvious to many people, just because of their civilian status, they have not yet felt the interests related to themselves.

But this is only temporary, and the top-down change will eventually benefit them, and many people have indeed felt it.

And the most obvious feeling is the Shi family, especially Guanzhong, who was affected first.

Just as Xu Qilin said, in order to develop Hexi, His Majesty Li Er set his sights on the hidden population of the Shi family.

In fact, concealment of the population is a long-standing tradition for the Shi family.

It has appeared since the Han Dynasty. In later dynasties, the problem of concealment became even more acute when there was a war-torn social upheaval.

The hukou of bureaucrats, aristocrats, landlords, and gentry who relied on privilege and power control was also called shade household. For example, the slaves and servants in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the tenants in the Wei and Jin dynasties, and the Zhuang guests after the middle of the Tang Dynasty all belonged to the shade households.

In the economic system of feudal society, the population tax accounted for a large proportion. The existence of shady households reduced the state's financial revenue and fattened the pockets of those bureaucrats, aristocrats, landlords, and gentry.

In order to enrich the country's finances, all dynasties have also had the move of encompassing households. The so-called household inclusion refers to the search for the unreported and fugitive population through the inspection of the household registration, and repatriate them to their hometowns or naturalize on the spot.

The Tang Dynasty was no exception, and in the fourth year of Wude in the time of Gaozu, an inspection of the fields and households was carried out; In the fourteenth year of Zhenguan, His Majesty Li Er issued an edict to check the household registration, starting from Chang'an and gradually implementing it throughout Guanzhong.

Its purpose seems to be the same as that of previous dynasties, which is to turn the hidden and fugitive peasants into state-controlled households, so as to enrich the finances.

But His Majesty Li Er obviously had other ideas, and used the inspection of the field to punish the scholars who broke the law. The loss of money is still a trivial matter, except for the shade of the door, but it is an important way for the scholars to enter the office.

At this time, the discerning people saw that this was another suppressive blow to the scholars after the reform of the imperial examination.

It not only solves the problem of immigrating to the northwest, but also weakens the economic and political strength of the Shi clan, and His Majesty Li Er wants to kill two birds with one stone.

But it's too late to know, who let those scholars be arrogant and disdain the two-month surrender period given by His Majesty Li Er, or only pay a small number of people to fool and perfunctory!

Moreover, Chang'an and Guanzhong are just the beginning.

Just after the sixteenth day of the first month of the sixteenth year of Zhenguan, His Majesty Li Er issued an edict to the ten provinces of the world, ordering the local chief executive to inspect the fields. At the same time, it also sent household envoys to various provinces to supervise the implementation.

His Majesty Li Er had obviously been inspired by the brackets in Chang'an and Guanzhong, and this time the brackets were more complete and thorough.

For example, it was still a 100-day escape to surrender, but the previous rule that all people must "return to their hometown" has been changed.

The edict clearly stipulates: "First flee, and allow yourself to surrender." If you can serve the acres of ridges and work hard, the idle fields where you are located are persuaded to reclaim. "That is, the peasant is allowed to be attached.

It was a wise decision that greatly reduced the resistance of the fleeing households.

Land, population, and entry, His Majesty Li Er started from the foundation of the century-old inheritance of the scholar clan, which can be described as a sophisticated calculation, and he can't accept it.

At this time, the scholars came to their senses. The "Chronicles of the Clan", which does not play a big role, is just a small meaning, and His Majesty Li Er is going to hit hard from the root, or even destroy the foundation of the Shi clan.

Moreover, His Majesty Li Er seems to be very rich, or the treasury is very rich. For those who have voluntarily surrendered and fled and newly attached customers, they will be exempted from rent and forced labor for three years at once, and only light taxes will be charged.

This is a very attractive preferential policy, which makes the hidden hukou of the scholars have to be moved.

If the gentry want to continue to hide, they can only come up with more profits to retain the population. But as long as the surrender period is over, if there is a hermit who surrenders to the government again, a heavy blow to the scholar clan will follow.

As a result, the scholars who could not see the situation clearly were greatly weakened, and the households in the Guanzhong area could see it clearly.

Those who handed over all the hermits were given leniency; Those who are perfunctory and deceitful will suffer heavy losses, which are far greater than the gains of the hidden population.

"As Zaifu, you can't come out and say a word when you see the Lu family in trouble?" Lu Shi's eyes widened angrily, and he slapped the table directly at Fang Xuanling.

Fanyang Lu, a famous family from the Han Dynasty to the Sui and Tang dynasties in China, the surname of the east of the Kuoshan Mountain, Gao Jie, the secretary of the State of Qi, was the ancestor of the surname Lu, and his descendants received the surname Lu because of the fief Lu Yi, and after the Tian family replaced Qi, the Lu clan people scattered in Yan, Qin and other places, and one of them lived in Yandi.

Fan Yang Lu family to Confucianism, etiquette, calligraphy and other family science masterpieces in the world, in the Eastern Han Dynasty that is the great Confucian Lu Zhi of Confucianism, Cao Wei has Sikong Lu Yu.

It reached its peak in the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty set the four surnames of "Cui Lu Wang Zheng" Gaomen, and the Fanyang Lu family and the Qinghe Cui family were called "Cui Lu", and they were called "Beizhou Crown Family".

Fang Xuanling was also very helpless, His Majesty's intention to suppress the scholars had been decided. At this time, Gaochang was destroyed, the treasury was full, and there was no fear of the scholars rising up to rebel.

And starting from Chang'an, and then pushing to Guanzhong, it is the temptation of His Majesty Li Er. Seeing that the scholars had no power to resist at all, they resolutely carried it out throughout the country.

His Majesty Li Er's judgment is also very accurate, the scholar clan has lost the strength to control the government and even change the emperor. Now that the central government is stable and the army is firmly in control, the scholars can no longer make any big waves.

"Although a certain is Zaifu, but the Fan Yang Lu clan has ignored His Majesty's edict and has been found out, so what can I do?" Although Fang Xuanling is afraid of his wife, he also knows that he can't get ahead no matter what.

When the household was bracketed in Guanzhong, there were a few guys who didn't know whether they were alive or dead came out to intercede, and without exception, they were belittled by His Majesty Li Er, and even dismissed.

You see that Sun Wuji, the head of the family, just issued the edict, immediately inspected his manor, handed over all the hidden households, and asked for punishment.

Then, His Majesty Li Er pretended to punish the eldest grandson Wuji's Yulu, but then praised him for his deep understanding of righteousness and rewarded him heavily.

This is singing double reeds, or whether the eldest grandson Wuji is really so selfless, no one needs to say. The result is the same anyway, so what's the use of digging deeper?

The rest of the nobles were not far behind, and they obeyed the order. Naturally, not only did there be no loss, but there was a lot of praise and reward.

The Fang family is not the same, and quickly reacted, the property rewarded by His Majesty is still in the library!

With a keen sense of politics, Fang Xuanling reminded his wife at that time that he wanted Fan Yang's Lu family to prepare early. Once the land is inspected, you must not leave it to chance.

But in the end, something happened, and although only three hidden households were found, they were still reluctant to leave the Lu family.
