Chapter 401: There is a triumphant article here
After being in the officialdom for a long time, he has become the kind of sheep who does not move his nest without a whip. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
All kinds of slacking off government are actually just the generals at the top, and the people at the bottom have to get by. Now under Luo Yan's strict orders, the Assassin's Mansion has once again erupted with an earth-shattering vitality. In just one and a half days, Hu Cao reported to Yang Rui the various conditions that he had agreed to when he had appeased Shanman.
Time has passed too long, and Yang Rui himself has actually forgotten what he promised at the beginning. Now with a booklet in his hand, he is really a little embarrassed.
Originally, it was expected to be done, but I was afraid that the treasury would be half sold. But now it seems that with the mountain barbarians who are going to be appeased now, I am afraid that this number will be a little bigger.
However, in less than half a month, a new round of taxes will be paid again, but I am not afraid that the turnover will not be opened. encountered such a thorn history who could find trouble, Yang Rui, who made a long history, was really heartbroken.
The third day is fast approaching.
I haven't seen Luo Yan for three days, and to be honest, Yang Rui is a little uneasy in his heart. Therefore, when Cang Cao came to tell him that the first batch of money and grain had been sent out of the warehouse in the morning, Yang Rui couldn't wait to call Qiusheng and asked him to take him to Luo Yan's place.
Of course, Yang Rui didn't have the courage of Luo Yan, and dared to swagger and go to the mountainous settlement alone. Therefore, in the name of patrolling, he brought four heavily armed officers.
When Yang Rui saw Luo Yan again, Luo Yan was watching the people of the errand organization distribute money and food to the naturalized mountain barbarians one by one.
Perhaps out of prudence, the officers explained in advance the reasons for the distribution of the money. And also emphasized that this is only the first batch, and the later ones will depend on the situation of the mountain barbarians.
Compared with the amount accumulated over the years, the amount of money and food distributed is naturally not much. But if you want to pick it out separately, each person has always spent one stone of rice, which is enough for a family of four to spend for a year, which is not too much.
However, the next thing that made Luo Yan extremely embarrassing appeared.
After all the naturalized mountain barbarians received the money and food, they couldn't get entrenched, and then under the leadership of the patriarch of Qiusheng's clan, thousands of people surrounded Luo Yan in the middle and fell to his knees.
It's not that Luo Yan hasn't seen a large crowd kneeling down to worship him. But the previous kind was all floating away, and it was impossible to move at all if it was surrounded by a mass like now. What made him even more sad was that those old people knelt at his feet with snot and tears, which made him feel how to get by in his later life. As soon as he picked one up, the one in front of him fell to his knees again.
Fortunately, this is not a new society, and there are no newspaper reporters. Otherwise, if another discipline inspection committee comes out, it will definitely be the rhythm of being invited to tea.
But the scene can't help but be controlled.
There was no way, after Luo Yan picked up an old man, he saw that those who were helped up in front of him fell to their knees again, so he could only grit his teeth and make a big move.
In the corner of the clothes, in the stunned eyes of the people, Luo Yan's figure slowly declined, and then, in a "poof" sound that was so low that it was inaudible, he also knelt on the ground with everyone. Not only the people who fell to their knees, but even Yang Rui, who came in a hurry, was dumbfounded.
This is the official kneeling of the people.
Although the emperor of this dynasty has been extremely relaxed about the hierarchy between officials and people, there is still an insurmountable gap between officials and people after all.
Like Luo Yan, kneeling directly to the people is simply a taboo in officialdom.
In the midst of a group of dumbfounded people, Luo Yan shouted, "These are what we and other officials owe to you. The imperial court is committed to appeasement, and since it has agreed to many conditions, it should be done. It's too late, but as long as I'm here, I'll be treated the same in the future. ”
If you don't take the opportunity to win the hearts of the people at this time, then Luo Yan is really stupid. It was clear that he was not stupid, so not only did he have to find a proper reason to kneel, but he also had to continue to make things work for the better.
The kneeling Shanman didn't dare to kneel anymore, and the people around Luo Yan helped him up in a panic, and then stood aside with a look of shame.
Luo Yan walked out of the crowd very calmly, and there was no longer the slightest obstruction at this time.
After getting out, Yang Rui came head-on. At this time, instead of admiration, the face of the old man in the officialdom was a little sad.
"Yang Changshi, why is he sad. Could it be that doing this will empty the treasury and make it difficult for your clever woman to cook without rice?" With a little ridicule, Luo Yan asked Yang Rui very easily.
"Lang Jun, woe to you."
In a word, Luo Yan was a little dazed. What the hell is going on, even the word disaster is said.
Without waiting for Luo Yan to ask, Yang Rui carefully explained: "We and other officials, if we enter, we will be subordinates of the Son of Heaven, and if we go out, we will patrol the heavens." Every word and deed is related to the emperor's face. Lang Jun is kneeling down to the thousands of mountains now, isn't it detrimental to the country. It won't be long before the Imperial Observatory will send the impeachment note to His Majesty's case like snowflakes. ”
Speaking of this, Yang Rui seemed to have made up his mind: "Even I, I have to explain this matter in detail to Your Majesty." Even if I don't say anything about my friendship with Lang Jun, I will definitely not cover up Lang Jun's misconduct. ”
Luo Yan thought something was going on, and he was a little uneasy at first. Hearing what Yang Rui said was this, he couldn't help laughing. "Yang Changshi can remind me that it is already the greatest emotion. As for impeachment and the like, it will follow the rules of officialdom. ”
Hearing that Luo Yan was like this, Yang Rui didn't know what to say for a while.
Instead, it was Luo Yan, looking at Yang Rui, who didn't move at all, and continued: "Don't worry, it's nothing." Since ancient times, there have been things about the Son of Heaven issuing edicts against himself, and now the matter of appeasing the mountain barbarians, the court and the prefecture have not done a good job. But if you can exchange it for decades of stability in Yizhou, why not. ”
Yang Rui was about to say that this was different, but he was already gagged by Luo Yan's arrangement.
"Within half a month, I will see most of the corresponding compensation completed. When the time comes, I have important things to do. If there is still someone to pursue this matter at that time, I will ask him to come to me in person. After saying that, he left.
In addition to helplessness, what other words can describe Yang Rui's mood at this time?
Fifteen days was a joyful and short period for most of the people in Yizhou. Because during this time, the crops have been harvested, and a lot of labor and sweat have been paid, but in exchange for full rice and corn.
But for the officials in Yizhou, it is extremely long.
With the great flow of impeachment of Luo Yan, many people sent out the recital of kneeling that day. But until the last day of the deadline given by Luo Yan, there was still no news from Beijing. The mood of waiting can be described as a year.
But here in Luo Yan, there is still good news.
The things arranged before, those little officials in the Assassin Mansion finally did not cheat and play tricks, and the naturalized Shanban of Chengdu Mansion had been completely bought by Luo Yan.
In order to thank Luo Yan for his kindness, these people had the idea of erecting a monument to commemorate him. But how to write the inscription has become a problem. No, thinking about it and thinking that there was no suitable article, many naturalized mountain barbarians brought the problem to Luo Yan.
These people's minds are also direct, anyway, they want to record this matter, rather than looking for someone else, it is better to find this person.
When he learned about this from Qiusheng's mouth, Luo Yan almost didn't squirt out the tea in his mouth. These people are really real, don't they know that writing merits for themselves is the most painful and taboo thing.
But after seeing the uprightness of those mountain barbarians, Luo Yan also gave up the idea of refusal. He was sure that if he didn't agree today, he was afraid that he would be surrounded by countless mountain barbarians when he went out tomorrow. He is a human being, not a god, and he is often bowed down to by others, and he will lose his life.
This time, Luo Yan is not going to copy it.
This matter has been advocated by him from the beginning, and he has personally participated in every process, which can be said to be very touching. Since the mountain barbarians gave this opportunity, Luo Yan naturally wanted to take the opportunity to say some words in his heart.
"What the mind thinks. Life is proud, and I think it is better than the title of the gold list of the candle night in the cave room.
Those who spend candles in the cave house also start a family. The blood continues, and the branches and leaves flourish. A hundred years later, there will be people who burn money in front of the grave. The title of the gold list is also established. The ancestors are glorious, and the descendants are the shadows. Within three generations, food and clothing are worry-free.
However, after being an official for several years, he knows how shallow it is. When a gentleman is in the world, how can he learn from his fame and family business. Reading but not helping others, being an official but not taking responsibility, if there was no book at the beginning.
Yizhou mountain barbarian, this Yan yellow blood, to avoid the disaster of war and enter the mountains and forests. If you have been isolated from the world for a long time, you will not be able to pass through the world, and you will be called barbaric. How do you know that 500 years ago, the same lineage? The Celestial Empire is newly established, and it is anxious to appease. All kinds of promises have not been fulfilled.
Now that the promise was fulfilled, the mountain people wept bitterly. What is the sorrow of the people? The sorrow of the real court is also. Those who pay lip service but do not come to the truth, so are the officials. For this sufferers, compatriots also. And those who bear the infamy for thousands of years, the Celestial Empire is also.
Now the mountain people want to remember the inscription, and the center is in front of the rest. Therefore, it is the book, and the police will be the future officer. Year, month, day, Luo Yan. ”
There are very few readers in Shanman, so what Luo Yan wrote is actually unknown to most people. The only few scholars who have studied have followed the officials of the Assassin's Mansion these days to deal with the matter of naturalizing the barbarians, where do they have the time to take care of this.
So the inscription was almost engraved in a way where no one knew what it was about.
The stele was placed in front of the newly built residential city of Naturalized Shanman. Luo Yan refused the request to go and watch, but he couldn't stand the fact that there were many good indirect slappers in this world. When the red silk wrapped around the stele was pulled open, many officials scrambled to read the article, and then fell silent.
Although the above did not explicitly say the dishonesty of Yizhou officials before, but just like that, it was enough for some people to blush.
And many readers pay more attention to the form of this inscription. There are no flowery words and strict rhymes, but they read no worse than those pun texts. The article was originally called "The Monument of the Tree for the Naturalization of Mountain People", but as a result, more scholars were willing to call it "Proud Chapter".
