In August of the first year of Kaiping, 300,000 troops were sent to sweep the Central Plains, and wherever the army went, the counties surrendered one after another, and by November, the Central Plains and three provinces were all swept away.

In April of the second year of Kaiyuan, the crusade against the south again, 500,000 troops went down the river, the small court of Chu surrendered, Fang Xin was then named the king of Chu, and the same is hereditary, in order to inherit the virtue of the previous dynasty, this is to take into account the original 50 years after the destruction of the Great Chu, now 25 years in advance, the royal family of the Great Chu still has 25 years of imperial luck, and the king is also to follow this luck, so as to be included in the imperial court luck, and do not have to stay in the people to cause trouble

Liu Yonghe raised troops to resist it, and the war continued until March of the third year of Kaiping, when Liu Yonghe was defeated and died, and the army swept through the south, which was unified by the world

In October of the third year of Kaiping, the counties and counties of the world have been stabilized, Fang Xin issued an edict to convene meritorious ministers to discuss merits, which is also a disguised cup of wine to release military power, when a large number of generals went to the imperial capital, Fang Xin also issued an edict to conduct the first population and land census to determine taxes and household registration, and arrange for farmers to obtain land

The quarrel of the lord lasted for several months, and it was not over until March of the fourth year of Kaiping, so Fang Xin made a big feud with the ministers, the prime minister Shen Xuan was the first meritorious, and he was named the Duke of Rongguo, and there were three other dukes

There were thirty-six marquises, fifty-four counts, eighty viscounts, one hundred and twenty-five barons, and three hundred nobles in the whole country, which were hereditary forever.

Dafan unified the world, in fact, the merits of the heroes are not too much, but the treatment is extremely generous, and the ministers are all overjoyed, cheering and jumping

At this time, Fang Xin issued a "system of apportioning the land into the mu, and the officials and the people paying grain in one", which of course aroused the opposition and hatred of many landlords and old bureaucrats, and even gathered people to resist taxes, but they could not obtain the support of the nobles who had only been knighted and rewarded

This blatant challenge to the authority of the imperial court touched the most sensitive nerves of the new regime, and Fang Xin immediately ordered a crackdown, and this major case lasted for three years, involving more than 6,000 people, and 300,000 people were either killed or exiled. or confiscation of land and wealth.

There were also people who rebelled, naturally in this case, they were immediately suppressed by the elite of the new dynasty, and even the nine clans were even owned, and the wealth and land obtained were in the millions, Fang Xin was very satisfied with this

In the sixth year of Kaiping. This big case has just calmed down, and all the families in the world have clearly recognized who is the master of the world, and they have to accept the "apportionment into the mu, and the government and the people pay the grain system in one"!

Kaiping for six years. Prime Minister Shen Xuan resigned. to his own fiefdom. The world has finally entered the stage of stability.

In the blink of an eye, it is the eleventh year of Kaiping

Imperial capital

The whole city was divided into two hundred and forty-one squares. Each forms a cross-"well" shape. There are cross streets in every square. Shops in various industries are located on the street.

Ten years ago, the land went to war. It seems to have been a dream. Busy. Heavy traffic.

The crown prince was married in the first year of Kaiping. But there were no children for ten years. This worries the monarch and the ministers. Especially in recent years. His status as the crown prince is in shaky decline. This year, the crown princess is pregnant. Birth of twins. It was a son and a daughter. The whole court cheered. The Emperor has made a special decree. Amnesty to the world

Ding Zhao, the Empire Adventist, came to the Imperial Capital at about this time, the companions, and the two Imperial Visitors, because of the mature Empire, know the roots, and now the Empire Advent, it is difficult to come without notice, and they must also apply

This time came to the world. Not only traveling, but also having to keep track of things

As a commissioner of the empire, walking on the imperial capital of this world, how can I feel indescribable in my heart, looking at the magnificent buildings, which are not inferior to the traditional imperial capital of the main world.

The imperial capital has been renovated one after another, a large number of underground waterways have been built, and there are sweeping and cleaning personnel on the streets. Both sides of the avenue. There is a locust tree, and the long branches and leaves are extremely luxuriant.

Central Street. The courtyard is extremely gorgeous, with bucket beams and frames, exquisite carvings, and heavy courtyards, and it is difficult to live here if you are not a royal noble, or an official of the fourth rank or above.

Ding Zhao was dizzying, and so were the people around him, and after walking for a while, he broke away from the central street and came to a street.

Tian Tang said: "It's almost there, isn't this Nanpingfang Bingjie?" ”

When Xu Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but look at the street twice, pointed to a label and said, "Look, it's here!" ”

Indeed, there are signposts on it so that those who are new to the imperial capital do not get lost.

"It is said that now the imperial capital is also divided into workshops, and then the street and door number are added, this policy is greatly favored by the imperial capital Jingzhao Yin Yamen, and it is all over the investigation, which is very modern." Before Ding Zhao came, he had already read the information and said.

Jing Zhaoyin is the highest administrator of the capital region, if there is any official in the world who is the most difficult to be, this Jing Zhaoyin is one of them, the key is that the emperor is under the wheel of heaven and earth. It is too close to the Son of Heaven, all the officials and clans are among them, all kinds of contradictions are intricate, interpersonal relationships are intertwined, and it is quite difficult to govern this place.

In order to ensure the work and authority of Jing Zhaoyin, the imperial court specially promoted his official position to the third rank, which was at the same level as the commander of the Nine Gates, with one article and one martial arts, and jointly managed the imperial capital.

The three of them walked down the street, and saw that there were flowers and trees planted on both sides of the street, and there were sidewalks and carriage paths, and they all nodded in agreement, which was indeed very civilized.

"This is true, but as the first person to come and successfully establish the empire, Fang Xin has been made a baron by the emperor, which is a rare honor. His "Outline of Plane Advent", which pointed out the way of plane advent, was rated as one of the greatest contributions of the empire in the past ten years, and many of the contents are still classified! All three of them were talking.

Although Nanpingfang is not the location of the emperor's relatives and dignitaries, it is also a residential area for some officials between the fourth and eighth grades, as well as rich and noble families, but when you see the place you pass by, the mansion is also very large, and the streets are even paved with green bricks.

When they arrived at a simple-looking mansion with an inscription of "Yang Mansion" hanging on it, the three of them stopped, looked at it carefully, and stepped forward. "Three sons, I don't know what happened here?" The doorman stepped forward and said.

"This post, give it to your master, and he will tell you how to treat us." Ding Zhao took out a post and said.

This person glanced at it, showed a polite expression, took it, and said, "Three sons, please wait." ”

A moment later, with the sound of footsteps, an old man greeted him and said, "Three sons, please come in, my master is waiting in the hall." ”

Entering the door, the corridor along the way is planted with flowers and plants, and there is a small piece of green bamboo in the distance, and the pebble path leads to the courtyards on both sides, and the courtyard is quiet.

Even in the main world, most ordinary people still live in the suites of the building, and this kind of deep courtyard can only be afforded by the rich, and the three of them are suddenly relaxed.

In the hall, the screen divides the space into several small pavilions, which appear to be scattered and elegant, and exquisite landscape paintings are hung on the front wall, and the three of them see a thirty-year-old man greet them.

The three of them looked at each other, and according to the rules of this world, they saluted: "Students meet Lord Yang!" ”

"No need to be polite, get up!" At this time, a maid sent it up, this maid has ice skin and snow skin, delicate and beautiful, although it is not stunning, it is not far behind, especially the kind of supple demeanor, which is even more intoxicating.

After serving the tea, he waved his hand to let the servants and maids all retreat, this Lord Yang took the post and read it, and saw that the three of them reported their names one by one, so he smiled: "Everyone is their own people, now you don't have to be restrained, well, you come this time, are you going to stay for a long time or a short time?" ”

The short one is three months, the old one is thirty years, and of course this person is also the one who came.

"Well, I'm going to live for fifteen years." Ding Zhao thought about it and said, more than ten years, that is, a year and a half in the main world, which is neither long nor short.

"Oh, what's the plan? Is it an official, or a businessman? Lord Yang thought for a moment and asked, "Oh, I have a single name." ”

"Do you have any advice?" The three of them still said politely.

"It's more difficult to be an official, and we who come are quite limited, generally speaking, if you are prepared, you can rely on your knowledge to get the show, and then it depends on your life and merits."

"For business, let me introduce the situation, now the founding nobles, one-third, have withdrawn from their official positions and returned to the territory, but most of them have built businesses, and now commerce is very prosperous, if you want to attach to it, it's not impossible, if you build your own business, of course, you can."

"I heard that the best way is to take the show exam before going into business?"

"Yes, with the identity of Xiucai, he is automatically a county scholar, and he does not kneel when he sees seven grades or less, but he is in business, generally speaking, it is difficult to enter the office, and he does not enter the office, and he does not enter the business, and the only exception is the aristocracy." Yang Xing was specially designed to receive the advents, so he naturally said familiarly: "Of course, some casual jobs below the eighth grade are still allowed under special circumstances. ”

"Then we want to get the show first, and then it's not too late to do business." The three of them were all prepared and talked together.

Yang Xing also felt normal, and said: "Okay, I will arrange for you, but it depends on your real ability to get Xiucai, well, here I will give you a hundred taels of silver, after you get Xiucai, come again, the county lord will summon you, so that your business route will be relatively smooth." ”

The county lord of Yunmeng, the descendant and the intermediary of the imperial court, control the power of life and death in the chamber of commerce, and the three of them are clear, so they look at each other for a while, and they all respond.

Seeing that Yang Xing was already preparing to summon people, Tian Tang said, "My lord, I haven't asked you for your official position yet?" ”

"I'm also a regular eight-rank dismissal, so I can be regarded as a contribution to the imperial court!" Lord Yang smiled: "Otherwise, it will not be easy to find a house here!" ”

The three of them didn't say anything more, and Lord Yang took out three Jiaozi and came out: "This is one hundred taels of anonymous Jiaozi of Fengle Qianzhuang, you can take it out with this, and the following life should be enough, as for the specific reason, I have already arranged it for you, since you want to take the Xiucai exam, this address is good, you can go there to study for three months!" ”
