Chapter 78: Two Dozen (2)

The secretary opened the door and sent the director of education out. The two didn't speak in the corridor, and when they arrived at the door, the hall chief turned his head and asked, "I forgot to say it just now, what should Principal Lu do?" ”

"Which Principal Lu?" The secretary was a little confused for a moment.

"Hong's principal." The Director reminded.

The secretary remembered that there was such a person, but he still didn't particularly understand what the director meant. Didn't the prefect of Wang Quanle make it clear, if the Department of Education encountered an inquiry from above, he directly said that it was to protect Hong and ask the principal to order him to suspend his studies. At this time, why does the director of the hall talk more nonsense?

Seeing the secretary's expression, the director stopped talking, and finally changed the subject, "That Zhang from the telegraph office...... What's going on? ”

"Zhang Huchen."

"Oh, does Zhang Huchen's son want to be fired?"

After hearing this, the secretary hurriedly shook his head, "Governor Wang said, don't do things too much." Those people are children, so why bother with children. ”

After hearing this, the director of the hall looked at it a little squintedly, and the secretary also knew the meaning of the director's expression. When they dealt with Hong Nanfeng's son before, they didn't have this kind of meaning of 'leaving a line in doing things, and seeing each other well in the future'. But the director didn't say anything, and just left.

The secretary smoked a cigarette in the small garden near the door to clean up his mood. Things have happened too quickly recently, and there have been too many changes, and it is indeed very remarkable that Wang Quanle has asked the responsible officials of the three main departments to bow down at this time. You have to savor it carefully.

The small garden has a pergola pergola, and although the leaves of the vines have dried up, there is a wall to which the vines cling. Standing behind a wall is not warm, at least it can block the wind. Lighting a cigarette, the secretary only felt that it was a bit of a change of world. This change is since Wang Quanle secretly went to Kaifeng, although the steam car ship is fast, it is not comfortable. Noise, smell, a lot of people don't like it. Wang Quanle just stayed up on it for two nights and ran back and forth.

After returning, Wang Quanle began to adjust his direction. The secretary was shocked and inquired about the reason, and learned that the matter had been stabbed at the imperial meeting. Now the secretary understood that things could no longer be as he had envisioned, weaving a big net and trapping the tax office in it. The current official family is not the same thing as the previous official family at all.

In the past dynasties, the officials of the Great Song Dynasty had to appoint civil ministers and military generals to serve as prime ministers and eunuchs, and use these cronies and capable ministers to govern the world. The current Zhao Guanjia himself is both the prime minister and the captain. is really in power, dictating the dynasty. When other officials encounter big things, they have to consult with their subordinates, and they are scolded by their subordinates in various ways, and they spit on all kinds of spit, and then come up with a solution that is more violently scolded and spat afterwards.

If it is a matter of Luoyang, it will make the eyes of the officials even darker. How could the officials understand such local affairs?

The current official family is completely different, and the official family has already made a decision on big and small matters, and all he has to do is to find someone who can satisfy him. All kinds of guys who talk nonsense purely out of their own interests are probably about to lose their positions. Under such an iron-fisted rule, as long as the matter of Luoyang reaches the front of the emperor, there must be a conclusion.

The prefect of the king was ready to close the case quickly, because he knew that there was no time for such a thing to be delayed. If he drags it out, 90 out of 10 will be afraid that the tax bureau will dominate the situation. If the tax bureau dominates the situation, all such things will have to be with the tax bureau in the future. And the tax bureau has made the chickens and dogs jump in Luoyang, so that they have the upper hand, how will the life of this officialdom live in the future?

The secretary smoked a cigarette and analyzed the situation. The cold wind made his thinking flexible, and with his previous thinking, it was gradually clear about it. I smoked two in a row, but I still couldn't go back to Wang Quanle. The secretary is now not sure how Wang Quanle will complete the last step, which is to convict this Zhuangzi when a large number of people are still in the hands of the tax bureau.

After all, this matter is not simple, it is this kind of villager, at least they know that admitting that they are barbarians is a dead end. If they insist that they have been wronged, the government will not be able to convict these people on their own. If this is done, the government will be admitting that what the tax office has done is exactly right. In the past, the officialdom rallied against the tax bureau, and one of the reasons was that the tax bureau was beaten into a trick.

My brain hurt when I thought about it, and the secretary didn't come up with a way. After smoking his third cigarette, he finally had to go back to the office. This matter will be handed over to the prefect Wang to deal with, he is the person in charge.

At this moment, another team of people who were concerned about this matter were also discussing the matter in Luoyang. Zhao Qian and others had already got the latest report in their hands, and they discussed it with the previous content, Zhao Qian felt that he was clear, and he felt that he was completely unclear.

At this time, the Great Song Dynasty had already set a new standard for titles, and the Great Song Dynasty was the only orthodox in China, so the Liao, Western Xia, Jin, and Mongolia were all armed separatist forces. If it weren't for the previous Song Dynasty emperors who actually signed various agreements to lose power and humiliate the country, the Great Song Dynasty would directly attribute them to barbarians.

Even so, these forces are no longer qualified to be called 'dynasty', Liao, Xixia, Jin, and Mongolia. That's what they all call it. According to this latest order, the title of Great Yuan was completely withdrawn from the official documents and history books of the Great Song Dynasty, and became 'Mongolian'.

What happened in Luoyang was that hundreds of Mongolian second-class people hid their identities and never paid taxes.

There are also people in the working group who believe that these people have been Song people for so many years. As soon as he said this, Team Leader Liu objected: "The official family said that the Song people have two obligations, to be a soldier and to pay taxes. Have these people ever done it? ”

After Zhao Qian heard this, he immediately felt empowered. He also suddenly thought of this problem, these people who have lived in the peaceful Song Kingdom for more than ten years, and have lived in Luoyang for hundreds of years before, it seems a little inappropriate to be regarded as barbarians. At least it feels far-fetched. What Team Leader Liu said was indeed what Zhao Jiaren said publicly, and if you quote the official sermon, this matter can be easily qualified.

However, Zhao Qian was still a little weak-hearted, he only felt that the contradictions he faced were chaotic. All kinds of specious reasons and arguments are tangled, and all parties seem to have something wrong, and each side has a very right reason. Instead of scoring a good and evil right and wrong, Zhao Qian found that he really couldn't do it.

In such a entanglement, Zhao Qian remembered what his father said Zhao Qian's wife taught Zhao Qian's daughter-in-law, 'People initially think that what is is something, and later they will feel that what is not anything, and finally when they encounter something, they go to learn.' ’

Before, Zhao Qian still felt that these words were like the mantra of cultivating immortals, listening to all kinds of confusion and plausibility. At this time, he finally suddenly realized that he had understood everything. Now Zhao Qian has an advantage that no one else can match, he has an object to learn from, and his father Zhao Jiaren can't refuse Zhao Qian's request.

When he arrived at his father's place, Zhao Qian knew that his father was not there. Zhao Qian sighed in his heart, it turned out that he should not preset a position on anything, just like his father liked to say, 'the plan can't catch up with the change'. But since he came, Zhao Qian didn't want to leave. He hadn't spoken to his mother for a long time, and this was the right opportunity. You can wait for Daddy to come back when you talk.

Qin Yuzhen happened to be at home, looking at her eldest son, Qin Yuzhen couldn't help but sigh: "Da Lang, I think Empress Dowager Chen said what your father said." ”

"What?" Zhao Qian felt that it was probably not a good word, but he couldn't help but look forward to it. That's the words that evaluate his wise and martial father.

"It's not cute." Qin Yuzhen said it word by word with a teasing expression.

Zhao Qian was stunned, he wanted to tell something, but he couldn't say it. In the end, he could only say with a feeling of admitting defeat: "Mother, you just love to bury me." ”

However, sitting beside her, Qin Yuzhen sighed: "You didn't see your expression, it's the same as your father." But if your father can't figure something out, he goes to the study to read, or writes by himself. As for you, you've been chasing and asking since you were a child. If you don't bother, I'm annoyed. ”

Zhao Qian heard this complaint, and felt a little uneasy in his heart. What the old lady said was right, but Zhao Qian himself felt that he was not so bad. At least Mom and Dad never seemed to say they weren't happy about it. The most important thing is that Zhao Qian has always felt that his father and mother still spoil him the most. Then he said: "Mother, do you remember when you taught me to read the Tao Te Ching? ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Qian felt that he was really as the old lady said, and he opened his mouth to ask questions. It's not cute, indeed.

Qin Yuzhen sighed, "Alas...... it was all many years ago, where can I still remember." ”

Zhao Qian has not forgotten that when he was a child, he followed his mother to learn to read the Tao Te Ching, and the Tao Te Ching began with the words, 'The Tao is the Tao, not the constant Tao; The name can be named, not the permanent name. ’

Recalling this, Zhao Qian suddenly discovered something. The Tao Te Ching he learned since he was a child seems to be different from the Tao Te Ching outside. The books outside are all 'Tao Ke Dao, very Tao; The name is famous, not very famous', and after my father came to power, he decided to hide the word, and he will not shy away from any name in the future. Looking at it now, Daddy has been like this for a long time.

Looking at her son's contemplative appearance, Qin Yuzhen read in a brisk tone: "Tao is Tao, very Tao; The name is famous, and the name is not very famous. Nothing, name, the beginning of heaven and earth, being, name, the mother of all things. Therefore, there is often no desire, to see its wonder, and there is often desire, to observe its subtlety. These two are the same and have different names, the same name is the mystery, the mystery is mysterious, and the door of all wonders. ”

In the past, Zhao Qian didn't like to read this thing, and thought it was too mysterious, but at this time, when he heard the old lady read it, he was thoughtful, as if he had understood something.

"Tell me, what's there you don't understand." The warm side of her mother in Qin Yuzhen's expression faded a lot, and the picky side was revealed.

At this time, Zhao Qian vaguely remembered that the old lady commented at that time, all the truths and names were things that people decided after the incident in order to be able to discuss the matter, and as for these truths and names, they would change with the changes. But I didn't expect to take out the whole paragraph and taste it, and there would be richer feelings.

Listening to the old lady's urging, he simply asked directly: "Mother, I heard my father say that you taught my daughter-in-law to learn when she encounters problems." I'm here to see my dad this time, and I want to learn something about the government. ”

"Aren't those people engaged in hidden fields?" Qin Yuzhen said indifferently.

Zhao Qian's heart was shocked, and the old lady took out the situation that Zhao Qian understood, but did not expect. That Zhuangzi has been able to hide until now, and it is not a special situation, but the enemy to deal with with in the new tax system that his father Zhao Jiaren has introduced. At that time, the landlords in the south of the Yangtze River engaged in hidden fields, and the Zhao Guanjia engaged in land surveying datums. When the landlords in Jiangnan resisted taxes, Zhao Jiaren set up a tax police force and acted fiercely against those gangs. The landlords also destroyed the survey datum and beat and even killed the tax police.

Luoyang in the Central Plains or Jiangning in the South. It looks different, but it's not really different.

With this gap, Zhao Qian finally understood why the tax bureau took action. Isn't this what the tax bureau is doing, looking at the things that shook the imperial court, but it was a common situation when the new tax law was implemented.

Thinking of this, Zhao Qian felt that his eyes were clear. After a while, Zhao Qian felt that he saw a new layer of fog, if it was just like this, why would many people strongly oppose it. Those people will not get involved with the tax resistants, and the current laws of the Great Song Dynasty will be enforced, but there is no room for these people.

Since his father was not there, Zhao Qian couldn't help but ask his mother. Qin Yuzhen shook her head slightly, "Da Lang, your father said not to help the seedlings grow. But I still can't help but vent my anger on myself, you give me a good listen. ”

"Yes." Zhao Qian only felt that his skin was tight for a while, and the old lady was much gentler now. In the past, Zhao Qian was only afraid to kneel on the futon, next to the stick of love, listening to the teachings of love.

"Your father was in your grade, and he already understood the in the court. Those people didn't have the courage to rebel at all, so they fought for their own one-third of an acre of land. Do you understand? Qin Yuzhen began to vent her disappointment greatly.

Looking at her son's expression of understanding, Qin Yuzhen was even more unhappy. She is a woman, and Empress Dowager Chen is also a woman, why is there such a big gap between the babies who have been taught! Zhao Qian is already the most like Zhao Jiaren in the family, although he is a little annoyance who is good at learning, at least he still knows how to learn. The other sons and daughters are simply going to heaven. It added a lot of troubles to Qin Yuzhen.

When I started the Empress Dowager Chen, I thought of the son and daughter of the Empress Dowager Chen. Even if it is the second son of Empress Dowager Chen, at least he is incapacitated, and he thinks very highly of himself, but he does not harm others. When the second child was named 'King Ning', Qin Yuzhen didn't understand it at the time, but she just felt that Zhao Jiaren was hinting to the second child Zhao Jiali to be honest and not to make trouble. Just be a nuisance, quiet person. Looking at it now, it may be to praise Zhao Jiali for living dozens of years old and not harming others.

But you can't say that. So Qin Yuzhen continued to train her son, "You always feel that you are the same as those people, can those people be the same as you?" Even if you do the same thing, you're not all the way. You can't figure this out at this age, no wonder your father won't let you be the governor of Kaifeng. ”
