Jining Mansion, Dexian County, Zhaojiaji. I'll tell you that the fastest update of the novel is the eye. Hurry? Read the website

In the attic of Zhao Xinyue's boudoir, Li Yuntian sat at a table, flipping through the "Ming Xin Bao" brought by Zhao Xinyue with great interest.

The newspaper not only reported in detail the various unfathomable deeds of the Venerable Master Yuan Xia in the lobby of the Criminal Department, but also used many wonderful words to support the mystery of the Venerable Master Yuan Xia, so that the image of the Venerable Master Yuan Xia's immortal wind and Taoist bones came to life.

This is what Li Yuntian has already confessed to Yang Yungui, although Master Yuanxia is a cheater, but he is also a scheming person, and his heart is not too bad, the only time he wanted to kill someone was stopped by Li Yuntian, so Li Yuntian wanted to shape him into a successful Taoist.

Although Li Yuntian does not believe in the theory of ghosts and gods, but the people of the Ming Dynasty, whether they are ordinary people or high-ranking officials and nobles, are convinced of this, otherwise the incense of those Taoist temples and temples in the Ming Dynasty will not be so prosperous, even Emperor Yongle also built the temple of Emperor Zhenwu in the imperial garden.

There is a good saying, being a thief has a weak heart, if Li Yuntian encounters any tricky things in the future, he may not be able to make the Venerable Yuan Xia come forward to be even better than his effect, and a few words can make the other party's psychological defense line collapse, and then honestly confess the crime.

At the same time, the existence of the Venerable Master Yuanxia was also a kind of deterrent to the civil and military officials of the Ming Dynasty, and those who had done bad things would secretly speculate whether the Venerable Master Yuanxia would calculate what they had done in private.

This newspaper arrived yesterday, and Li Yuntian had read it several times, but it was really boring in the attic, so he had to flip through these newspapers to relieve his boredom.

With a burst of footsteps going upstairs, Zhao Xinyue, who was dressed in a green skirt and combed in a double bun, walked up easily, followed by her close-fitting maid Xiaoling, holding two plates of fresh pastries in her hands.

These days, Zhao Xinyue often asks Xiaoling to go out to buy pastries for Li Yuntian and the four of them to taste, anyway, she also likes to eat these pastries, so it will not arouse suspicion.

"Brother Li, that Venerable Yuan Xia is really powerful, he is clever, he actually knows so many hidden secrets in it, it is simply Liu Bowen who helped Emperor Taizu fight the world back then!"

Seeing that Li Yuntian was reading "Ming Xin Bao", Zhao Xinyue sat down opposite him, looking at him with her chin in her hands and smiling, her words full of admiration and awe for Venerable Yuan Xia.

"Hearing is false, seeing is believing!" Li Yuntian smiled when he heard this, and put down the newspaper in his hand, of course he knew that Master Yuan Xia was just playing a wonderful show in front of the cabinet and the officials of the five governments and six ministries, and it was definitely Hu Yitu who planned this matter behind the scenes, in his opinion, only Hu Yitu had such a powerful hand.

"Why are you scholars so sour when you speak!" Zhao Xinyue giggled, Li Yuntian's words just now reminded her of her eldest brother Zhao Yongji, who has everything inferior and has a high reading philosophy, and he can't look down on other people and things at all. The update is the fastest and most stable

Speaking of which, Zhao Yongji's role model is still Li Yuntian, Li Yuntian is the highest ranking in the palace examination among the Shandong Jinshi in recent years, and he is also the only one who has become a Shujishi.

Zhao Yongji's desire is actually not high, as long as he can enter the Metropolitan Inspection Institute to become the imperial history, you must know that the results of the southern Jinshi over the years have to be the same as the results of the northern Jinshi, so the Hanlin Academy, the Metropolitan Inspection Yuan and the six subjects are mostly southerners.

This also led Emperor Hongxi to have the idea of reversing this situation, so that Li Yuntian was able to go up and down in the Taihe Palace, and finally contributed to the admission ratio of six in the south and four in the middle and four in the examination.

In the eyes of those scholars in the north, especially those in the north, Li Yuntian's move not only gave them a bad breath, but also greatly increased their chances of high school, and became an idol in the minds of the northern scholars.

Zhao Xinyue likes to chat with Li Yuntian, Li Yuntian is funny and knowledgeable, which makes her listen to it with relish, and even Xiaoling is attracted to listen to it with great interest whenever she has time.

However, Xiaoling's task was to be on duty in the courtyard, so she went downstairs after delivering the pastries, and sat in the hall on the first floor embroidering mandarin ducks.

Xiaoling had to be afraid, if it was known that the four big men were hiding in Zhao Xinyue's boudoir, not only would Zhao Xinyue's reputation be ruined, but she would definitely be severely punished by the family law.

"Senho-sama!" Just when Li Yuntian was telling Zhao Xinyue about some interesting customs and customs, Xiao Ling's crisp voice sounded in the courtyard.

"It's so annoying, why is this person here again." Zhao Xinyue couldn't help frowning slightly when she heard this, and her small mouth pursed, as if she was very disgusted with that Qianhu adult.

"Where is Miss, Ben Qianhu asked someone to bring her a pair of jade bracelets from Jining City." Immediately, a man's voice came from the courtyard.

"The young lady is resting upstairs, and the master of the thousand households will wait, and the maid will go to pass the word." Xiao Ling perfunctorily said to the thousand households, and deliberately raised the volume to report to Zhao Xinyue in the attic.

"Brother Li, I'll come when I go." When Zhao Xinyue heard this, she smiled helplessly at Li Yuntian and got up to leave.

Li Yuntian came to the window, looked down through the gap in the window, and saw a middle-aged man wearing a five-grade military robe with a long scar on his face swaggering into the hall on the first floor, followed by two sergeants, one of whom was holding a red brocade box in his hand.

"My lord, this person has come here three or five times, and I am afraid that he has ill intentions towards Miss Zhao." Song Dashan came over and glanced at the middle-aged man, and said to Li Yuntian in a low voice.

The middle-aged man with a scar on his face was the deputy Qianhu of a thousand households under Jining Wei, surnamed Luo, who was ordered to take Zhao Jiaji to guard and lived in the Zhao Mansion with the best conditions in Zhao Jiaji.

Ever since she inadvertently saw the delicate and lovely Zhao Xinyue, Deputy Luo Qianhu has tried her best to please her, and has given Zhao Xinyue several gifts, which makes Zhao Xinyue very annoyed, especially hating the lustful eyes when Luo Deputy Qianhu looks at her.

To this day, Zhu Zhantan has narrowed the encirclement of Li Yuntian's four people to the territory of Dexian County, and has stationed people from Jining Prefecture and Jining Wei in every township and town in Dexian County.

Because Deputy Luo Qianhu and a priest surnamed Zhang in the Jining Mansion Execution Room lived in Zhao Mansion, Zhao Mansion became the safest place for Li Yuntian, who would have thought that he would be under the noses of Deputy Luo Qianhu and Zhang Si Official?

"According to the time, if the prince's journey is smooth, he has now arrived in the capital, and they will withdraw from here in a few days." Li Yuntian knew that Deputy Luo Qianhu was not kind to Zhao Xinyue, and his brows furrowed slightly before gently closing the window.

Zhao Xinyue is in the cardamom years this year, and Deputy Luo Qianhu actually has a lustful heart for a thirteen-year-old girl, which shows this person's character.

Deputy Luo Qianhu pestered Zhao Xinyue for a while before leaving with a smile, he has no interest in drinking, the only hobby is to be young, specifically interested in those thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls, whenever there is a little girl in Jining City, he has to go to cheer.

Unlike those officials in Jining Prefecture, since Jiningwei had no local administrative jurisdiction, Luo Deputy Qianhu did not have any way to make money, and in order to satisfy his "little hobby", he could only use Guò to exploit his sergeants to obtain the money needed for daily entertainment.

Because the army of the Ming Dynasty adopted the cantonment system, that is, the soldiers of the guard post were soldiers when they were busy and farmers when they were free, and the military status was hereditary, so the sergeants of the guard did not have the slightest way to exploit their superiors.

According to the regulations of the Ming military system, generally speaking, the number of soldiers in the frontier guard station is usually thirty percent to defend the city, and seventy percent to the number of tun species; The soldiers of the inland guard post usually guard the city in 20 percent, and 80 percent of the people are stationed in the cantonment and rotate in batches.

In addition to the number of people defending the city and planting according to the ratio of 37 and 28, there are also 46 ratios, 19 ratios and middle half and so on, according to the different local shapes and different methods, with the fields being fertile and the local erosion as the standard.

Each soldier would receive a share of the cultivated land from the imperial court, and the local government would provide cattle, farming tools, and seeds, and levy grain according to the portion, becoming what people later called "military households".

According to the records of Ming Taizu, the output of the military camp in the first year of Yongle had reached more than 23 million stones, but this figure had a lot of moisture, because most of the soldiers at that time did not have enough to support their rations for half a year.

In addition to the military cantonments, commercial hoarding was also implemented as a means of subsidy, that is, according to the "open China law", merchants reclaimed the land in the border areas and paid in the grain to supplement the military rations.

The original intention of Ming Taizu to implement the cantonment system was good, wanting to relieve the burden of military salaries on the people, as well as solve the difficulties of transporting food and salaries, and realize the self-sufficiency of the army.

It is a pity that this also gave officers at all levels in the army an opportunity to take advantage of it, not only wantonly exploiting the labor and harvest of the soldiers, but also encroaching on their cultivated fields, and even falsely reporting the number of soldiers to privately occupy the tuntian issued by the imperial court, so that the cantonment system was gradually destroyed by Yan zhòng.

The merchants also ignored the "open China law" and obtained a large proportion of the harvest from farming, which caused the interests of the merchants to suffer and gradually became abandoned.

Li Yuntian has long known the danger of the military system, but this is the military system set by Ming Taizu, and all kinds of shortcomings have not yet broken out, and they are hidden under the appearance of seemingly prosperity, so he can't act rashly and take the initiative to poke this hornet's nest, and I am afraid that he will be resented by those officers in the army who have profited.

However, if this Deputy Luo Qianhu doesn't know what to do and wants to plot against Zhao Xinyue, then Li Yuntian doesn't mind taking him under the knife, you must know that Deputy Luo Qianhu's Yu Lu can't afford to buy a gift to Zhao Xinyue no matter what, so it indirectly exposes the various drawbacks of the military system.

Not long after Deputy Luo Qianhu left, Zhao Xinyue came to the attic angrily and wiped her left hand with a handkerchief.

Just now, Deputy Luo Qianhu actually pulled her left hand and put a jade bracelet on her, and stroked the back of her smooth and white hand with a face, which made Zhao Xinyue feel a chill and pulled her hand back.

To tell the truth, this Luo Deputy Qianhu has invested a lot of money in order to please Zhao Xinyue, and today he gave Zhao Xinyue this pair of jade bracelets of high quality, at least worth more than a hundred taels of silver.

In addition, he had already spent three or four hundred taels of silver on Zhao Xinyue's body, which was really generous enough, but in this way, he also left physical evidence that he had exploited his subordinates.

Li Yuntian didn't expect that Deputy Luo Qianhu would be bold enough to openly take advantage of Zhao Xinyue, but now he can't protect himself, and he can't do anything in the face of Zhao Xinyue's experience, so he can only shake his head helplessly, hoping that Deputy Luo Qianhu will not do anything drastic, otherwise things will be in trouble.

"Miss Ling, I'm here to deliver water." Just as Li Yuntian was comforting Zhao Xinyue, who was sulking, with kind words, a loud voice sounded from the courtyard.

A stout man pulled a waterwheel into the courtyard, shouting and rolling his eyes, looking up the boudoir with a twinkle in his eyes. One
