After seeing the newspaper of Guangnan Qi Mindi, Pan Shu did not dare to confront Zhao Yu in the end. And in fact, this matter, to put it bluntly, is just that the scholar class does not want Zhao Yu to become more powerful. It's just that some things can't be explained, because although the scholar class is large, it is only a class in the end, and wantonly suppressing others is afraid that it will arouse public anger.

On 13 August, not long after the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, a large number of sub-inspectors headed by Zhou Xin, Du Xiansheng, and Shen Qizong set out from Guizhou to the prefectures and counties of Guangnan West Road.

Although Pan Shu regressed in the end, he was not willing to forget it like this, on the one hand, he asked the imperial court to control the private newspaper and not to publish articles that damaged the majesty of the imperial court at will.

On the other hand, Pan Shu personally sat in Guizhou and sent his henchmen to accompany the sub-inspectors sent by Zhao Yu to various places. This time there was a big uproar, and the officials on Quang Nam West Road were all panicking. The style of rule of officials on Guangnan West Road immediately changed, and although it could not be said to have become honest and honest, some bad habits had been imperceptibly reduced.

Despite this, a month has passed, and three governors and seven magistrates have been found out, as well as a variety of general judgments, state magistrates, county magistrates, county magistrates, and county magistrates, a total of 26 officials have embezzled and accepted bribes, and there are hundreds of officials in addition to them! The amount of embezzlement is more than Zhao Yu expected!

It's no longer 1.27 million kan, but as high as 1.6 million kan! Of course, there is a lot of gold and silver in it, all of which are calculated according to the exchange price of gold and silver in the Central Plains of the Northern Song Dynasty to copper coins, so if it is calculated according to the price of Guangnan West Road, it is actually much lower, but it is only seven or eight hundred thousand!

Even so. It also caused a wow. The fold has been jointly sent to Bianliang. There is also a small interesting story in this collaboration. Pan Shu was cheeky to add a name, and Zhao Yu did not take the opportunity to retaliate. He knew that Pan Shu already owed him a favor in this matter, although it would not be said that Pan Shu surrendered to him, but at least Pan Shu was embarrassed to argue with Zhao Yu again for a short time.

…………

A manor in Guizhou, bamboo forests, ponds, and rockeries are scattered on this manor.

In a pavilion, there were seven or eight people sitting, all dressed in bright clothes. The youngest looks over thirty years old. Under normal circumstances, it is all tea in the pavilion and talking.

In fact, none of the people present looked happy, and they turned a blind eye to the beautiful courtyard scenery nearby, and their sorrow was overflowing.

Long Xinhong, who was wearing a collared green coat, coughed, stood up and said: "The old man is older, so he will be older, and he will stand up and talk about the old man's opinion first!" ”

"What do you mean by that, old man? It's time for you! ”

"Yes! Yes! ”

Long Xinhong smiled, and then said: "The purpose of meeting you today has already been clearly stated on the invitation. The old man doesn't say much here. Many of the officials who have been arrested today are the children of my family. said that they were corrupt and bribed, and the old man absolutely didn't believe it. At most, they are just trying to help the villagers make a little mistake, but His Royal Highness King Wei is now going to explain the canonical punishment, what are these words! ”

"Not really! I heard that His Royal Highness King Wei did this in order to let the officials of Guozi Academy who came this year take the throne! I saw an old man in his sixties, gray hair, wearing a dust-covering warm hat, wearing a straight-seam wide shirt, a soap strip tied around his waist, and familiar leather boots, said angrily.

Hearing the old man speak, the others echoed. "The old lady is right!"

"Not really! Today we have detained our children, and tomorrow I don't know if we will be detained to eat the Zhao family's rice (prison meal)! ”

Long Xinhong nodded and said, "Everyone is right!" However, the old man thinks that the official family is the Son of Heaven, and King Wei is also the younger brother of the Son of Heaven, and King Wei does not have the intention to embarrass us! There must be a traitorous villain who was slandered next to him, and this is what happened! ”

The old man was also a smart person, and immediately chimed in: "What Long Yuanwai said makes sense, His Royal Highness King Wei is still dedicated to the people, but he just made a mistake!" ”

The other people who attended the meeting understood and agreed in unison. "The words of the old lady make sense! It's all to blame on those treacherous villains! ”

Why did Long Xinhong and the old man turn the finger at the people around Zhao Yu? It's not that they don't know that these things are all done by Zhao Yu, even if the common people know about it! If there is no support from Zhao Yu, that official has this ability? One hundred and thirty officials were taken down at once.

The reason why this is the case is because they know that with Zhao Yu's noble identity, it is not for them, the country heroes, to be brought down. And Zhao Yu, who has no henchmen, no matter how powerful he is, is still a castle in the air, no matter how beautiful it is? Without a good foundation, it will collapse in a few days.

"The question is how to let His Royal Highness King Wei know about our grievances?" A visitor has already pointed to it.

"Isn't the autumn harvest just around the corner? We're going to make a big deal out of him! Tax resistance! The head of the family in his early thirties was obviously much more radical, and said firmly.

The old man immediately shook his head and said, "Not good! If this makes a big fuss, maybe the king of Wei will be forced to send officers and soldiers to forcibly pay taxes, I don't think it is as good as the people are willing to write? ”

"The Book of the People? That thing works! The head of the family, who was in his early thirties, said disdainfully.

The old lady stood up and said to the mud, "Let's see what the dragon member means!" ”

For Long Xinhong, the others were still relatively convinced, so they didn't make trouble one by one, and set their eyes on Long Xinhong.

Long Xinhong stroked his beard, thought for a while, and said: "The old man read the Analects today, and when he saw a sentence, he felt very profound. If the name is not right, it will not go well, and if it is not good, it will not be done, so everything must pay attention to this name! It is not good to resist taxes at the beginning, after all, although His Royal Highness King Nawei is not a famous general on the battlefield, he has also been on the battlefield, and he is not a timid person! ”

"But is the Book of All People really useful? I'm afraid that before I got to His Royal Highness King Wei, I would have already been thrown into the corner and covered with dust by those traitorous villains! The young head of the family, who was in his early thirties, frowned, still objecting.

Long Xinhong shook his head and said, "The Book of Ten Thousand People is too soft!" The old man's meaning, it is better for us to call on the clansmen, the people, tens of thousands of people all the way to Guizhou to hold up the book of the people, so that His Royal Highness Wei Wang refused our request, and it is justified for us to resist taxes. No one can say that there is anything wrong with us! ”

The other staff members and family heads all bowed their heads and said: "What Long Yuanwai said is reasonable, so it will be according to the meaning of Long Yuanwai!" ”

Long Xinhong nodded and said, "Okay!" Then we will hold a people's wish on September 15, and you must mobilize more villagers and clansmen. Let the traitorous villains around His Royal Highness King Wei see how powerful the people are! Didn't Tang Taizong say it? The king is the boat, the people are the water, and the water can carry the boat or overturn the boat! ”

"Good!" The applause was loud, and the gloom and sorrow on everyone's faces were now swept away. (To be continued......)
