When they came to the room, the three of them were still excited, but Yuan Tan complained to Xie Yi: "Why did you only take the usual money?" ”

It turned out that Yuan Tan and Huan Wen were responsible for dealing with the thugs and asked Xie Yi to take the money, but who knew that Xie Yi only got back the usual money. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"How can this money be enough for us to go home?" Yuan Tan continued to complain.

Xie Yi said: "It's enough to have this consistent money, if you beat people like that, the rest of the money will be used as other people's medical expenses." Besides, other people's casinos can't be opened for three or five days. Within fifty miles of the river was my cousin's manor, and when we got to her, we didn't have to worry about anything. ”

Only then did the three of them sleep peacefully.

The spring in the south of the Yangtze River came very early, and three high-headed horses galloped on the field, and before noon, they came to Chu's manor. Xie Yi asked the door to send a report and came to ask to see his wife.

Xie Yi's cousin is the eldest daughter of Xie Kun, the first-generation family leader after the Xie family moved south to Jiangnan, and she married Chu Li, a famous family in Jiangnan.

After waiting for a while, the door of Chu Mansion was wide open, and a group of people came out. The leader was in his twenties, his expression was refreshing, and when he saw Xie Yi, he hurriedly saluted and said: "I don't know that my brother is coming, and I have missed the welcome, and I have sinned and sinned." ”

Xie Yi saw that it was his brother-in-law Chu Li, so he said in surprise: "You are an official in Beijing, and you are busy with official business, but I didn't expect you to be at home." ”

Chu Li replied: "Recently, there are some trivial things in the manor that need me to deal with, I only rushed back to the house yesterday, I didn't expect to meet my brother, this is also a beautiful thing." ”

Chu Li welcomed the three of them into the mansion, Chu's manor is a big manor in this area, and Chu's mansion is also a deep courtyard. Crossing several courtyards, Chu Li led them to an elegant courtyard. The four people who entered the room sat down, and the servants hurriedly brought water and poured tea.

The servant retreated, and Xie Yi told Chu Li about the experience of the three of them. When Chu Li heard this, he was surprised, then looked at Huan Wen, looked at it carefully, and sighed: "This Huan brother is extraordinary, and he is indeed a hero among people." As soon as he crossed the river, such a bloody person in the Shi clan was probably only comparable to Wen Qiao. However, he turned back to Xie Yi and asked, "So what are you going to do now?" ”

When Xie Yi heard this, he blushed a little, and said: "I don't have any talent, I see that I am thirty years old, and the court has just appointed me to make a seven-grade county order, I want to bring Huan Wen with me, hide it in the county government, and wait for the amnesty to come out." ”

Although Chu Yi is two years younger than Xie Yi, he has been in the officialdom for many years, and he knows the key points, he thought about it and said to Xie Yi: "My opinion is different from yours, do you remember Shen Chong, the leader of the Shen clan in Jiangnan?" Shen Chong followed Wang Dun to rebel, and was finally defeated and killed by his generals, and sent his head to the imperial court for merit. And a few years later, his son Shen Jin killed the general's entire family to avenge his father. In the end, the imperial court actually pardoned Shen Jin's capital crime, but only fined him. ”

"Yes, I've heard about it." Yuan Tan hurriedly said, Yuan Tan is already a celebrity next to the old prime minister Wang Dao, and he knows a little about the affairs of the imperial court.

Chu Qi continued: "Why was Shen Jin pardoned? The reason is that the Shen family still has power in Jiangnan, and the Shen family is jointly sponsored. Since the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, the imperial court forces have been completely lost, and the country can only rely on the alliance of scholars to confront the Northern Dynasty, and the imperial court has accommodated the family power. I think that if my brother hides Yuanzi, it will not only be detrimental to his future, but also great harm to you and the Xie family. Huan Yuanzi's revenge for his father is much greater than Shen Jin's revenge, after all, Shen Chong is a rebellious minister and thief party; And Lord Huan Yi was indeed loyal and martyred. Once again, the scholars looked down on the common people, and they especially hated the common people who killed the lord, so that Shen Chong would be exonerated from the crime. ”

The three of them nodded their heads when they heard this, and Chu Li said his final opinion: "I think, it's better to do this, you two hurry back, you can inform your father of this matter, and he will explain it to Huan Wen in the court, and Yuan Tan can also submit this matter to Lord Wang Dao." And Huan Wen should go to Jiangzhou to defect to Huan Xuan, the military strength of the Huan family is in Huan Xuan's place, and Lord Huan Xuan will write to protect Huan Wen, I think the imperial court will at least pardon Huan Wen's capital crime. ”

Huan Wen exclaimed: "Didn't my uncle guard the country? How did you get to Jiangzhou? ”

Chu Li said silently: "After the rebellion of Su Jun and the clan covenant, the Northern Dynasty Zhao Guo Shile took the opportunity to order people to go south to seize Yuzhou, Zu Yue was unable to resist and surrender, and Lord Huan Xuan led thousands of people of the Huan clan to retreat to Wuchang and served as Jiangxia Xiang (equivalent to Taishou), assisting Liu Yin, the assassin of Jiangzhou, to defend Jiangzhou. It is said that Beiting is in the prime of life again, eyeing my Jiangdong, the imperial court is the time to employ people, and a hot-blooded person like Huan Wen is serving the country, how can he hide in the county government to be a servant. ”

Huan Wen was full of enthusiasm when he was said, stood up and said to Xie Yi: "Brother Chu's words made me suddenly enlightened, and I decided to follow Brother Chu's advice and go to Nanchang to join my uncle." ”

Xie Yi also felt that this method was very good, especially when his father and Yuan Tan asked Director Wang at the same time, and the Huan family would try to protect Huan Wen, which would not harm himself and Yuan Tan, and it might not affect Huan Wen's future.

After the four of them agreed, Chu Li ordered his subordinates to prepare wine and food and warmly entertain the three of them. At the banquet, a little girl of seven or eight years old suddenly came, who was smart and cute, and was not afraid of people, so she had to sit at their table to eat.

Xie Yi said with a smile: "My little niece is so smart and beautiful at such a young age, and when she grows up, she must be a stunning beauty." ”

This little girl is the famous Empress Dowager Chu in the future. Widowed at the age of nineteen, he listened to the government three times in the court, and assisted six emperors before and after. Because the Chu family is not prosperous, and the Chen Jun Xie family, which is prosperous, relies on Chu garlic seeds, and entered the ranks of the top scholars earlier than the Huan family.

In the afternoon, Chu Li took the three of them to the manor to play, Chu Li pointed to the vast number of troops working in the fields and said: "We applied the agricultural technology of the north to this water town in the south of the Yangtze River, and unexpected surprises broke out. In the past, rice was grown only once a year, but now I can grow three crops a year. ”

Chu Li then pointed to a distant mountain opposite and said, "I call this mountain 'Treasure Mountain', and send a thousand people to mine iron ore in it, and all the iron tools used in the manor are mined from there. I came back this time to send the iron tools I have built in the past two years to the country and support the frontline operations. ”

The four of them played for a long time before returning with a lot of fun.

Early in the morning of the second day, Chu Li urged Xie Yi and Yuan Tan to hurry back. Because the Huan Wen murder incident may not have reached Jingshi, no one knows that he still has two helpers. In case others see these two people and Huan Wen together, they can't say clearly, so they give the two of them a circle. Before leaving, Huan Wen remembered that he still had to return Miss Yu's horse, so he told Xie Yi about Miss Yu and asked Xie Yi to return the horse on his behalf.

Xie Yi said: "I think this horse is very handsome, and it is ridden by her servant, not as good as you but riding, I will go to Miss Yu, how much does she want, but I will pay her, just when we buy it." ”

In the past few days, Huan Wen has also loved this horse very much, so he won't say much. In the end, Huan Wen asked Xie Yi to report his safety to his mother at home, and the three parted ways.

Xie Yi and Yuan Tan returned to the capital, while Huan Wenxi defected to Huan Xuan in Wuchang.

Author's words

From the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the society entered the period of manor economy, due to the backwardness of agricultural technical conditions, and the lack of popularity of bladed steel farm tools, the agricultural production in the society adopted the manor model. The owner of the manor guides the farmers in production and deploys agricultural tools. The owner of the manor was more like the technical backbone of the farmland at that time, just like the high-rise buildings built on the construction site today, at a glance it seems that migrant workers are working, but in fact, without the five or six technicians who are guiding on the side, this building cannot be built. As the manor economy created a huge agricultural output, which could meet the country's taxes and stabilize the toiling masses, the lord of the manor became a sweet spot in the eyes of the imperial court and was highly valued by the imperial court.

During this period, yeoman farmers lacked sophisticated agricultural technology and iron tools, and were barely self-sufficient, so farmers would also bring land to the noble estates in the hope of obtaining technical and agricultural support. In this way, the scholars were still the saviors in the eyes of the peasants. It is also supported by the peasants to a certain extent. Manor owners are like today's big business owners.

By the time of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the popularization of bladed steel tools and the further development of agricultural science and technology represented by the popularization of bladed steel tools allowed people to engage in agricultural production as a family unit. At this time, the owner of the large manor, which has thousands of parts, became the shopkeeper. In the eyes of the peasants, they became complete parasites; When yeoman farmers and small and medium-sized landlords could afford the taxes of the imperial court, the ability of the large estates to control thousands of people became a threat to the imperial court. Their time is over.

In the West, due to the geographical conditions of the Mediterranean, shipping and trade allowed the nobles to retain a certain vitality. Therefore, before the bourgeois revolution, the West did not move out of the society of the gratification.
