Originally, Luo Yan thought that after coming to Lantian. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info This first fire should be burned on his subordinates, or the heroes in the county. But after listening to Xiaowu's words, it seems that he will finally take action against these students.

When his mind was turning around, Luo Yan kept his eyes on Chen Yuru. As a county magistrate, he definitely knows what is going on. If Chen Yuru doesn't give himself a satisfactory answer, then Luo Yanke will have to check it himself.

Under Luo Yan's gaze, Chen Yuru said with some embarrassment: "Back to Langjun, in fact, the discipline of the county school is a little looser, and the schoolwork during this period is not too heavy, so these people will come out." ”

If you have to say it, this Chen Yuru's statement can be regarded as a reason. However, the schoolwork is easy, and it is not possible to release the students at this time. Luo Yan suddenly said in his heart, nodded, and said that he accepted this statement. Then he said to everyone with a smile: "Full of wine and food, these people have disturbed the interest in vain, today's banquet can be regarded as the end." Let's go back, ladies and gentlemen. ”

There was no doubt about him, and everyone followed Luo Yan out of the ******.

After returning to the county office, Luo Yan was taken to his residence. Ah Quan has already arranged everything in this half a day, and he is waiting for Luo Yan at this moment.

Seeing Luo Yan enter the door, Ah Quan said happily: "Master, this county government is doing well, it's about to catch up with our family." ”

Ignoring Ah Quan's happiness, Luo Yan asked, "Have you eaten anything after working for a long time?" ”

It's okay not to say it, as soon as Luo Yan said this, Ah Quan's stomach rang. Luo Yan scolded with a smile: "Money is in the baggage, what is the use of spending, just take it yourself, why be so difficult for yourself." ”

"That's not going to work!" Ah Quan almost jumped up: "This is absolutely not good." It would be a mortal sin for us to tamper with our master's belongings. And then there was a burst of talk about how serious it was. Ah Quan's actions made Luo Yan smile bitterly, and he had no choice but to take out a piece of silver that was about three or four taels from his baggage, throw it to him and say, "If you have anything to buy in the future, use these." When it's not enough, tell me again. Remember, in the future, you are not allowed to accept money from anyone in this county. Not even an egg, remember? ”

At first, Luo Yan was still laughing and scolding, but the next few words were Luo Yan's warning.

Ah Quan is also an honest child. When he was still a child, he was the child of a slave of a four-rank official. But this family was finally cleaned up because of serious corruption. Since then, I haven't been trained in the official school, isn't it a little smart, but it's honest. Just thinking of what happened in ****** today, Luo Yan was a little vigilant.

The water in Lantian County is definitely not shallow, and it is better to say that if Ah Quan is bought, then he will be completely alone.

Let Ah Quan go outside to buy something to eat. Luo Yan walked out of the door and asked the Yazhong messenger to call Song Zhen.

Chen Yuru just said that the matter of the county school was not clear, so Luo Yan could not be suspicious. In the ******, it is to give everyone face, so press not to mention it. But when I came back, I had to ask things clearly.

Since Chen Yuru didn't say it just now, he won't make it clear for a while. Then call Song Zhen, even if he doesn't know the middle song, he still understands better than what Chen Yuru said.

Soon after, Song Zhen arrived at Luo Yan's residence, and after saluting Luo Yan very respectfully, he sat on a chair under Luo Yan's humility.

Looking at Luo Yan carefully, Song Zhen had some admiration in his eyes. Although Na Luoyan is younger than him, he is much stronger than him in terms of talent, experience and official position.

I only heard Luo Yan say very kindly: "There are many people at the banquet today, and Chen Xiancheng's answer is a little inexhaustible. I want to hear from County Lieutenant Song, what is going on with these students? Sighing, Song Zhen smiled bitterly and said, "If the county order asks this question, in fact, anyone can say it carefully." Without him, it is just the result of compromise with the local gentry. ”

Luo Yan nodded and motioned for Song Zhen to continue.

"The predecessor Xu Xianling was born in a poor family, and it is not easy to get to this position step by step. Although the land is vast and abundant, most of the land is still in the hands of the local gentry since the land was granted. Local taxes are levied every year, and these people rely on some forces to join forces to resist taxes, not once or twice. ”

Feeling the bad deeds of the gentry, Song Zhen continued: "Speaking of which, the Xu County Order is also a good means, inviting these gentry to come, using the quota of the county school, and some other conditions in exchange for these people to compromise. ”

Now Luo Yan understood. Although Song Zhen said it easily, presumably these other conditions are the big one, and the quota of the county school can only be regarded as a match.

However, this quota can be said to be quite good for the children of these wealthy gentry. Mixing in can not only get the qualification for the scientific examination in a plain way, but also increase a lot of face when you say it.

"So, what are the other conditions?" Luo Yan asked.

"It's nothing, it's just that when these people buy and sell land, the yazhong doesn't have to block it, and they pass all the way." Speaking of this, Song Zhen blushed a little. As a ruler who did not know the importance of land, Li Yuan had already issued an edict when he first granted the land, and set a lot of thresholds in the purchase and sale of land, in order to let as little land flow as possible to a small number of people.

And Lantian County's actions are simply drinking to quench thirst.

"What's going on with the discipline of the county school? Even if you go into a group of wealthy gentry, you shouldn't be so loosely managed, right? Speaking of this, Luo Yan was a little puzzled.

"This matter has to start from the beginning of Xu County's order. Originally, there were ten-month exams every ten years in this county, and there were monthly exams every month. If you get three consecutive times in the exam, you will be kicked out of the door by the county school. There are a lot of wine bags and rice bags among these wealthy gentlemen, how can they pass the exam so easily. In the same month, he was swept away by the county school's instructor Zheng Laofuzi. ”

"This Master Zheng did the right thing, but how did he become what he is now?" Luo Yan asked.

Zheng Fuzi drove these gentry out of the door, making these people feel so faceless, and immediately ran to the county government to make trouble. Just in time for the autumn tax collection, Xu County ordered a hurry, forcibly stuffed these people back into the county school, and at the same time ran to ask Master Zheng for a long time. ”

"Although this matter has appeased the gentry. However, he swept away the face of Zheng Fuzi, this old gentleman is also strong, although he does not object to Xu County's compromise in order to pay taxes, but he does not want to continue to teach in the county. In a fit of rage, he resigned from the post of instructor and returned to his hometown to retire. The successor's instructor is the person recommended by Xu County's order, so he directly turns a blind eye and lets these gentry children make trouble. ”

Hearing this, Luo Yan slapped the table in an angry manner: "It's really insulting to Sven and misleading the country and the people." ”

Luo Yan felt that the two biggest good things Li Yuan did to Hanmen became a joke when he arrived in Lantian, so Luo Yan couldn't help but be angry. Song Zhen didn't reply at this time, just waited quietly for Luo Yan to speak. This matter is not something that he can mix with a small county lieutenant, he was also born in a poor family, and he has always been wise to protect himself when he arrived in Lantian, so he can still mix for so long. If you are impulsive, you will not have any good fruit to eat.

"Okay, you go back first, if anything. I'll look for you again. Getting up and sending Song Zhen away, Luo Yan began to think about the things that he learned in this county.

This exchange of interests between the former county order and the gentry, although on the surface, did not harm the actual interests of the common people too much. After all, even if it is a sale of good land, it looks like both parties are willing to do so. Although there is a fixed number of places for county schools, Li Yuan also allows people of civil talent and virtue to participate in the imperial examination by recommendation.

But in the long run, when the fertile land is sold, it should be sold into slavery. It is difficult for children from poor families to buy books, and it is even more difficult to find someone to answer their questions. What's more, it is not easy to get local recommendations. The monopoly of land and knowledge is not as much as it is in Lantian County.

was angry at Xu Song's short-sightedness, but Luo Yan had to think carefully about how he should deal with it.

Spring planting has just been completed, and the autumn harvest is still months away. Is there any way to deal with this matter without the help of outsiders, this is a challenge to Luo Yan.

However, for the time being, let's talk about the county school first.

Sitting in the chair, Luo Yan closed his eyes and thought. After a long time, he stood up and asked the county Cheng Chen Yuru to come over.

Like Song Zhen of Fang Cai, Chen Yuru was also polite when he saw Luo Yan. The county government is so big, the news that Luo Yan saw Song Zhen just now has been spread, and Song Zhen did not hide it, and informed these people about what Luo Yan asked him, including Luo Yan's reaction, there was no omission. Therefore, Chen Yuru has also made quite full preparations, waiting to deal with Luo Yan's inquiry.

But when Luo Yan asked him to sit down, the first thing he said when he opened his mouth made Chen Yuru a little stunned.

"Tomorrow, I will also ask Chen Xiancheng to take me to the county school. I'll take a casual look and test the level of these students. Luo Yan still smiled, but in Chen Yuru's opinion, this was definitely a signal that Luo Yan wanted to clean up the children of the wealthy gentry in the county school.

"This, this is as it should be, early tomorrow morning, I will take Lang Jun with me." Since Luo Yan has already decided, Chen Yuru naturally does not dare to object, and if he wants to do something in private, he can only report to the county school as soon as possible so that they can prepare early.

Seeing that Chen Yuru promised so happily, Luo Yan naturally knew that there would definitely be a good show to watch tomorrow. So I responded and began to talk about some of the basic situation of Lantian, and did not dwell too much on this matter. (To be continued.) )
