The wind was blowing strongly, and this group of people originally had the intention of retreating, but seeing that Li Chongjiu's face fell, they all knew at the moment that Shangguan was angry. Where dare Gong Cao say anything, as an official, if he encounters a softer Shangguan, he can occasionally pinch it if he is not excessive, but Li Chongjiu is so strong, as soon as he comes to Feihu County, he will destroy the county Cheng's family, and the Shangguan who kills people like this without blinking an eye, how can the officials below dare to disobey.

Gong Cao hurriedly said: "Hou Ye, where to speak, the lowly ones are rough, this cold winter is nine and the cold is used to it, it's not that I'm worried about the Hou Ye's body, since it's so lowly, there is no second word, just open the way for the Hou Ye." ”

Li Chongjiu nodded, and was about to hurry, but saw a group of people appear behind him, and his brows furrowed slightly.

Seeing Li Chongjiu's face, Gong Cao hurriedly said: "Master Hou, these are my own people, I heard that Master Hou is coming, there is something that is not long-sighted to make trouble, and I am here to protect it." ”

"Your own people?" Li Chongjiu asked rhetorically.

"It's Liu in the yamen, Zhang and the two head catchers, with archers, to help the idle."

Finally became an official of the Great Sui for a few days, Li Chongjiu also understood the official system of the Great Sui a little, after the founding of the Great Sui abolished the conquest system, the county magistrate, the county magistrate, and the county lieutenant in the Yamen were all appointed by the imperial court officials.

However, at the level of officials, they are still recruited from the people, or the county is recruiting by itself, and the so-called Liu and Zhang are between the official supernumerary civil servants of the imperial court, which means that they have not gone through formal procedures, but they have a fixed salary from the imperial court. As for the archers, the helpers are all counted, the real supernumerary personnel, the archers are the modern assistant police, and the helpers are almost the chengguan.

Of course, like later generations, these non-staff personnel did not have a fixed income from the imperial court, and relied on all kinds of gray income to squeeze the blood and sweat of the people. Since ancient times, China's bureaucratic system has been so corrupt, and these people have contributed a lot.

Li Chongjiu frowned, he has no intention of reforming the official system at the moment, such a shocking plan, how can he say that he is also a person in the system now. This is not the reason for his displeasure. When he saw more than 20 people hulala behind him, he nodded his head when he saw him, and immediately pointed his hand and said: "Ben Hou went to the countryside to observe the people's feelings, not to ask them to hug each other." ”

If the general Shangguan is changed, Gong Cao will definitely say that the poor mountains and remote areas are out of the people, and we are doing this for the safety of the Hou Ye, but now he also understands the temper of this Hou Ye, and without saying a word at the moment, he will go back and shout a few words to this group of people. They all looked panicked, and then hugged their fists at Li Chongjiu, and then retreated five or six miles away.

Li Chongjiu took Gong Cao, five of his own servants, plus a few clerks in the yamen, and went to the countryside like this. The clerks in the yamen, like the archers and helpers, are all staffed by outsiders, the difference is that they give Liucao their hands, copy documents, and sit in the yamen all day long, while archers and helpers are exposed to the wind and sun all day long.

There is a reason to take the book office, Li Chongjiu went to the countryside to visit the local clans, and secondly, to urge food. Since the thieves have not yet harvested this autumn's grain, if they do not collect the autumn grain, the soldiers of this city will starve.

Therefore, Li Chongjiu's first visit was to a big family surnamed Zhao in the county. This Feihu County Zhao clan, after admitting that he is the king of Zhao Wuling, whether it is true or not, I don't know, but it is also the consistent style of Chinese people who like to climb the lintel. This Zhao family lives in this Flying Fox County, which is different from the Cheng family, which is because the ancestors are considered a family in addition to the famous eunuchs, but the Zhao family is a big family with a large population.

You must know that even after the Great Sui unified the north and the south, the imperial court still had insufficient control over the local counties and counties in the homeland of the Northern Qi Dynasty. In the local villages, clan dwelling is practiced. At that time, Yang Jianxing lost his nationality and stipulated that each household below the great merit (cousin) must be divided, and then the tax will be levied on a household-by-household basis.

As a result, in the old Qi land, the resistance was the most fierce, because the big clans lived together, and thousands of people ate in the same house on weekdays, and worked together in the fields. Don't say that the cousins are below, that is, they are all living together with some blood relatives, so they can avoid the imperial court's taxes.

This is also a common thing in the north, such as Yingji Zhuliu, Qinghe Zhang, Song, Bingzhou Wang, Puyang Hou clan, all of which are powerful clans. Ordinary clan settlements, living in houses and houses, can be seen everywhere a case of nearly ten thousand rooms, fireworks connected scene.

And although the surname Zhao does not have to be above several families, it is also a big family with a small 2,000 people, if it is barely a family, then the Zhao family can be said to be a big and strong family in this county.

Li Chongjiu traveled for two hours, and after going deep into the mountains, he saw a dock fort built in the middle of the mountain, which was the dock fort where the Zhao family was. The location of the dock fort is extremely dangerous, and it is not easy to be attacked than the county seat, this time Wang Xu pulled out the thieves to attack the county Cheng, and he did not hear the idea of dividing troops to fight the Zhao family.

For such a big clan, it is definitely a bone that is more difficult to gnaw than the county seat, the people here are defending their homeland and fighting, all of them dare to fight to the death, and the location is in the mountains and mountains, and the thieves go to encircle and suppress, which is very unfavorable. Therefore, it has become a small peach orchard in troubled times.

Before Li Chongjiu came to Wubao, the plains near here had been leveled, and it was obvious that they had been harvested as fields. Many peasants wrapped in soap-colored turbans, dressed in kudzu clothes, and tied straw ropes around the waistbands of their trousers, pushed chicken carts carrying grain from the mountain path into the gate of the fort. These simple mountain people swept towards Li Chongjiu with vigilant eyes from time to time to wake up.

When Li Chongjiu and the others came to the gate of Wubao, more than a dozen Zhuang Ding with guns and sticks rushed up together.

At the moment, a clerk lifted his robe, nodded with his little thumb, and said: "You, you, you, yes, it's the three of you, hurry up and call you Zhao Wansan, go out to greet you in person, and say that someone from the county is coming." ”

These dozen Zhuang Ding were surnamed Zhao, and when they heard the other party call the name of their patriarch, they were all stunned at the moment. However, seeing that these people were all wearing long robes, they obviously had status, and they didn't dare to slack off at the moment, and one of them went back to report their crimes.

Looking at the book's office, Li Chongjiu not only did not stop, but also secretly praised it in his heart, which is the momentum of the superior.

On the side, Gong Cao said to Li Chongjiu: "Master Hou, it seems that you are here to urge food and other trivial matters, just send a secretary and two helpers." It's really hard to get Hou Ye to travel hard. ”

Li Chongjiu said with a smile: "Urging food is a trivial matter, I came to observe the people's feelings, and I paid a private visit, if there is nothing to do, you don't have to report my name." ”

Gong Cao glanced at Li Chongjiu, and at the moment he also had a deep expression of approval, and immediately instructed him to go down and say: "Such a small matter as urging food, just a few of you can do it, this official and the Hou Ye came to observe the people's feelings, and they paid a private visit, and you can't report our name for a while." ”
