There are still two days left before the enrollment of Yongsan Academy.

Just early this morning, the lively scene at the foot of the wolf howling mountain reached a climax again. The students who got up early in the morning walked out of the inn rooms one after another to practice in the martial arts arena prepared for them.

Outside the inn, there are students who have just arrived in the dust. The innkeepers walked out one after another, waving white towels in their hands to beckon guests to come to the hotel.

"Tianyue Inn is famous, and guests from all over the world are happy to wander...... Objective—inside, please—" The innkeeper greeted the guests who were about to stay in a long voice.

A large number of guests entered the inn one after another, choosing their favorite rooms.

Seeing the endless stream of guests entering the door, the shopkeeper was also a little surprised, why did so many students come this year?

Then I looked at the guests in front of me one by one, and there were many strangely dressed people. They wore one-shoulder robes, one arm bare, showing off their stone-like muscles. The women also wore one-shoulder robes, but the robes were all floral robes embroidered with various exotic floral totems.

The shopkeeper looked at the complexion of these people again, and their complexion was somewhat different from that of the people of the country of Pilu, and their skin was bronzed, and from their skin exuded a thick wildness.

After observing for a while, the shopkeeper was relieved. I understand that these are all students from the neighboring country of Jingliang. However, he still has some doubts, although the two countries are at war all year round, but the students are not guilty, and the students of the two countries can exchange academic exchanges with each other, but in previous years, he had never seen Jingliang students come to Lingzhou Longshan Academy.

The shopkeeper said in his heart, even if the students of Jingliang Kingdom came to Longshan Academy to study, they should go to the main courtyard of Longshan Academy in Zhongzhou, the imperial city, why did they come to Lingzhou Branch?

After some careful consideration, the shopkeeper was keenly aware that the Lingzhou Branch of Longshan Academy might have other reasons, could it be that the battle saint corridor that had been silent for a hundred years had opened?

The shopkeeper guessed well, just a few days ago, a rumor seemed to have grown wings and spread in Jingliang and Pilu countries - the Battle Saint Corridor of the Lingzhou Branch of Longshan Academy was opened, and it was said that someone had been elected to the Second Courtyard of Heaven and Earth in advance.

The rumor is even more suspenseful that there are countless heavenly treasures in the Second Courtyard of Heaven and Earth, and there are even tombs of war saints, as long as you enter them, you can obtain the inheritance of war saints.

Because of this rumor, the tribes of Jingliang Country sent talented young men and women to get their hands on the Battle Saint Tomb.

Just after a large number of guests had just checked in, a large number of young men and women came in the distance. They walked with a relaxed step, their heads held high, and walked down the mountain of wolf howls.

Longshan Academy has rules, entering the Langhao Mountain Area, all flying mounts are prohibited, and cultivators above the Tongshen Realm are not allowed to fly in the sky. Therefore, these teenagers also obeyed the rules of the academy and came on foot.

In the crowd, a large number of students gathered around him, walking and chatting around him.

"Senior Brother Yun Zhongjie, you have both reached the double realm of the gods, why did you still come to Longshan Academy to study, is it also for the Battle Saint Tomb?"

"Senior brother, I am from the Xiao family in Jizhou, my name is Xiao Yan, I have always heard of the legend of my senior brother, can I ask you a few questions?"

……

Yun Zhongjie didn't like the feeling of being crowded, so he didn't answer those who asked questions, and walked forward.

Seeing that Yun Zhongjie was so indifferent, a large number of young men and women slowed down in some disappointment, and distanced themselves from Yun Zhongjie, they didn't want to put their hot faces on other people's cold butts anymore.

In half a day, dozens of inns under the wolf howl mountain were already overcrowded, and if there were any more students who came, they had to go to the inner courtyard of the inn to lay on the floor.

In such a lively scene of Longshan Academy, Langzhou Shuangyu Village is also in full swing to increase the construction of buildings.

Yesterday, with the cooperation of the city lord's mansion, Chun Yan read out the civil law and the land reform system in front of the Famen Temple. For a time, the mountains and tsunami were called, and the people vigorously supported it. A large number of people decided to live in Shuangyu Village and thrive in the village.

The civil code read out by Chun is as follows:

1 From now on, the people of Langzhou will abolish their slavery and no longer be slaves. Everyone is their own master.

2. The people have the right to be knighted, and all kinds of merits are rewarded with a corresponding reward system.

3. The people of Langzhou should regard the law as their own moral standard, whether it is the common people or the officials, they should be treated equally. Those who oppose the law will be severely punished and will not be tolerated. (The sentencing standard is subject to the Langzhou Criminal Law)

The land restructuring measures are as follows:

1. Abolish the fiefdom of the large and small families of Langzhou and the city lord's mansion.

2. The people shall distribute the land according to the population, and each household shall have three acres. (According to the Langzhou land measurement method, 100 steps is one acre.) ）

3. The people pay the land and public grain to the city lord's office every year (the law of Langzhou stipulates that the field tax is exempted for three years, and only 30% of the public grain is paid for the army. ）

The military service system is as follows:

In order to ensure the expansion of Langzhou's military strength and better protect the safety of the people of Langzhou, people's families need to actively send their children to join the army.

1. If each family has two or more children, one of them will be selected to join the army.

2 Families with children joining the army will have their public rations reduced to 20%. Exemption from field endowment for five years.

……

These policies were strongly supported by the people, and now that they were no longer slaves, what reason did they have to reject the new law of Langzhou?

As a result, the people responded to the call of the new law and decided to move their families to Shuangyu Village. Some people in the surrounding mountain villages took their families to Shuangyu Village directly after the promulgation of the new law.

Zong Wusheng stood at the top of the back mountain, looking at the people who were building houses in full swing. In the distant fields, Chun Yan personally supervised and ordered people to measure the fields one acre by one, and distributed the fields to the people who lived in Shuangyu Village.

For a time, Shuangyu Village was no longer the depression of the past, and became the city within the city with the largest number of people in Langzhou.

In the King's Chamber, Zong Wusheng and Chun Yan were happily discussing. None of them expected that the promulgation of the new law would be so popular with the people.

The two of them got so carried away that they forgot that there was still a circle of people sitting in the hall.

Kong Ao, Kong Qi, Yu Biao, Yu Feng, Zhou Tong, and many elders of the Kong family had different faces, looking at Zong Wusheng and Chun Qi, they didn't know what they were thinking.

Kong Ao's father and son and the elders of the Kong family all had ugly faces, and after the promulgation of the new law, they were keenly aware of some potential hidden dangers. The Kong family also has a fief in Lingzhou, and there are not a few, at least a hundred miles. Kong Ao asked again, if someone abolished the land granted to them by the imperial state, would he be dissatisfied?

However, the answer is yes, if their fiefdom is abolished by the Sect Wusheng, they will definitely jump out and rebel. Drawing inferences from one another, Kong Ao could think of the psychological entanglement between the City Lord's Mansion and the major families in Langzhou at this time.

Kong Ao can guess that the change is undoubtedly a good thing for the people, but it is a painful blow to those with vested interests.

Thinking of this, Kong Ao glanced at Kong Qi, the child who had been staring at him, and his face also had a touch of solemnity, obviously unpredictable about the future.

Kong Ao resolutely stood up, interrupted the discussion between Zong Wusheng and Chunji, and said, "My lord, I have something to say. ”

Hearing this, Zong Wusheng turned his head to look at Kong Ao, and said with a smile: "Patriarch Kong has anything to say. ”

"I don't think there's something wrong with this land law."

Chun Yan immediately answered and asked, "What's wrong with the land law?" ”

Kong Ao said in a straight voice: "My lord can abolish the land privately occupied by the major families in Langzhou and distribute it to the people, I have no opinion on this." However, it feels very unsafe for the lord to abolish the fief that the imperial kingdom has given to the castle lord's mansion.

Have you ever thought about it, we ourselves have a reputation as a traitor, and then seize the land of the imperial country, what is the difference between that and bandits? ”

"I agree with my father's point of view, it would be better to ask your lord to take back the fief of the Imperial Kingdom to reward the City Lord's Mansion." Kong Qi immediately stood up and echoed Kong Ao.

Hearing this, Zong Wusheng was calm on the surface, but in fact, his heart was turbulent. He saw some signs, like the Kong family, who also had vested interests, and this abolition of the imperial kingdom's feudal land was actually a heavy suppression of their old clans. Through this, Zong Wusheng began to think about a question in his heart - if he occupied more county towns in the future and implemented new policies one by one, would it cause dissatisfaction among the major old clans and lead them to revolt?

The more Zong Wusheng thought about it, the more terrifying it became, no matter what the old clan was, it was a powerful force, and it could be said that it was a force that could not be underestimated, and once it rebelled, it would be a fatal blow to the new policy. Thinking of this, Zong Wusheng looked at Chun Yan, but seeing that Chun Yan's face was flushed, and the green tendons on his neck were bursting up, he retorted violently: "We are working for the welfare of the people, how can we seize the land of the imperial country?" We advocate changing the law in order to overthrow the tyranny and government of the slave lords ruling Pilu, what is your intention in asking for the life of the city lord's mansion? ”

Chun Yan was originally a victim of slavery, and the reason why he used his life to support Zong Wusheng was precisely because Zong Wusheng advocated his change, but today the people are strongly supporting, but the Confucian family within them jumped out to refute, how could he not be angry?

The sound of fierce debate resounded in the council hall, with the Confucian family as one faction and the three kings of Shanzhai as one faction supporting the change of law. The two sides engaged in a never-ending argument, and for a time it was extremely noisy.

"Don't fight!" Zong Wusheng shouted violently, and said coldly: "On the first day of the change, I fought in the nest, what kind of system did I become?" Patriarch Kong Ao, you have worries in your heart, I can understand that changing the law is like crossing a river by feeling a stone, and we can't give up changing the law because of potential dangers.

Is there anything wrong with changing the law? Was it wrong for us to overthrow the slave owners? I tell you - yes, when one day our new law is announced to the world and imitated by the world, we will not only not be traitors, but we will be the saviors of the people. ”

Zong Wusheng paused for a moment, and said by name: "Patriarch Kong Ao, don't you feel uncomfortable watching the people of the world endure the killing of slave owners without enough food and clothing?" As you can see today, the people are in favor of our new policy. Under the premise of the happiness of the people in the world, what do we have to make some sacrifices? What about the cost of sacrificing the city lord's mansion and the fief of the clan? What is the reason why the old man Kong Rong of your Confucian family advocates changing the law? Are you questioning the change of law or questioning Mr. Kong's mind? My sect Wusheng put his words here today, if the City Lord's Mansion is against it, then destroy the City Lord's Mansion, if they touch the law, I will not spare it! ”

Many people saw Zong Wusheng angry for the first time, and felt the raging anger on his body, but they didn't dare to make a sound anymore, and they sat down one after another after sighing helplessly.

Conzi, however, remained standing and did not sit down. Zong Wusheng glanced at it and saw that Kong Qi was still standing, so he asked, "Kong Qi, are you still okay?" ”

"Let's not talk about the fiefdom for now, I have one thing to ask for your permission."

"You have something to do, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

"My lord, my grandfather is still being locked up in the Imperial Yunyang Prison, he is already in his old age, I am afraid that he will not be able to withstand the pain of prison, if he stays any longer, I am afraid that his life will not be long. I want to ask for my life, go to Yunyang Prison to rescue my grandfather. As long as my grandfather is rescued, I, Kong Qi, will be at ease even if I die. ”

Hearing his son's words, Kong Ao was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes were wet with tears. After so many days, he didn't want to rescue his father, if his father died in Yunyang Prison, it would be the biggest regret in his life.
