Chapter 295: Brother and Sister Meet

In the backyard, Ma Yunlu is directing a few maidservants to clean up the yard, this Thorn History Mansion is the former Dong Zhuo's mansion, which has very high building specifications and a large area.

The front is the office of each yamen, with complete facilities, and the backyard is divided into two courtyards, east and west, and there are six separate courtyards, with gardens, pavilions, rockeries, small streams, ponds, and corridors.

A servant girl came over with a sergeant and said, "Second lady, this military master said that the master sent someone to talk to the second lady!" ”

Ma Yunlu looked at the sergeant and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The military clasped his fists and bowed and said, "Second Madame, the lord ordered the villain to come and invite the second lady to go to the front hall!" ”

"Okay!" Ma Yunlu agreed, and instructed the maids to work harder, to clean up inside and out, and immediately entered the role of a lady as soon as he came, and began to call herself the hostess here.

She took a servant girl and followed the sergeant to the front hall, and asked Qin Feng, who was sitting on the throne, "Why did the husband call me here?" ”

"Who do you see who this is?" Qin Feng was talking to Ma Xiu, and when he heard the voice of Ma Yunlu coming out from behind the screen, he pointed at Ma Xiu and asked.

Ma Yunlu looked at Ma Xiu, and Ma Xiu also saw Ma Yunlu, both of them were stunned at the same time, and shouted at the same time: "Second brother (third sister)? ”

"Third sister, why are you here?" Matthew asked in a panic, then looked at Qin Feng and said angrily, "Could it be that this thief snatched you?" Qin Feng, you deceive people too much, I'll fight with you! ”

Ma Yunlu saw that Ma Xiu had misunderstood, and hurriedly stopped: "Second brother, it's not like that!" ”

"Ahem!" Qin Feng interrupted their brother and sister and said, "Let me tell you, Ma Xiu, I have made peace with your father, and your father promised your sister to me, and now our two families are relatives!" ”

Ma Xiu was stunned and looked at Ma Yunlu.

Ma Yunlu's face was crimson, and the bold woman nodded a little shyly at the moment.

Matthew opened his mouth, "Didn't there be a fight, why did you stop the army and make peace again?" ”

Ma Yunlu heard Ma Xiu ask this question, and immediately gritted his teeth and said: "It's all Han Sui's old thief, who actually sent troops to attack Jincheng when our two sides were fighting, and my father was afraid that Jincheng would be lost, so he sued for peace with his husband!" ”

"In order to make peace, my father promised you to him?" Matthew asked.

At this time, Ma Yunlu's face was a little embarrassed, and she hurriedly said: "Second brother, now that the matter has come to this, don't be angry, the Qin and Ma families are already in-laws, and what I'm worried about now is my father, uncle, and them, and I don't know how the war is going, how are they!" ”

Qin Feng said: "Don't worry, I believe that my father-in-law should be able to handle it, and I have sent a spy over, as soon as there is news, it will be sent to Chang'an immediately, and there should be news soon!" ”

Speaking of this, Qin Feng said to Ma Yunlu: "Second brother, your brother and sister haven't seen each other for a long time, you take the second brother to the backyard to talk, I won't accompany you!" ”

"Good!" As he spoke, Ma Yunlu pulled Ma Xiu to the backyard.

Qin Feng got up and went to the east chamber of the front yard to check the situation of government affairs, this is the place where Zuo Ling is in charge of the government affairs of the Guanzhong region.

Now the government affairs of Nanyang and the audience are two systems, and the military affairs are also two systems, the military affairs of Chang'an are in charge of Jia Xu, and the government affairs are in charge of Zuo Ling; Yang Hong was in charge of the government affairs in Nanyang, and Xu Shu was in charge of military affairs.

In terms of materials and money and food, Nanyang is still supplying to support Chang'an for the time being.

"See the lord!" Zuo Ling, who was in the office, saw Qin Feng walk in, and hurriedly got up and came over to salute.

Qin Feng raised his hand and asked, "During this period of time, has the implementation of government affairs encountered obstacles?" ”

Zuo Ling invited Qin Feng to take a seat, and said: "At the beginning, there was still resistance, and it was not small, but since those scholars were pacified, the resistance disappeared, and some decrees were implemented quickly!" ”

Qin Feng said: "How are the family properties and fields of these rebel warriors handled? ”

Zuo Ling said: "Naturally, all the fines will be confiscated, and the fields will be rewarded to meritorious soldiers and landless farmers!" ”

After listening to it, Qin Feng said: "Regarding the regulations on the field, I think so, we still can't apply one size fits all, for those who have no owner of the land to be recovered, there are immediate family members alive, they can be inherited by their immediate family members, and those who have no immediate family members are alive, they cannot be inherited by collateral relatives, and they will be returned to the government, and then the government will reward meritorious soldiers or distribute them to the landless people, this regulation is only for the fields, and other property can be inherited by collateral relatives!" ”

"In addition, the regulations on the field, implemented in Nanyang, are that in the future, each household will have no more than 100 acres of land, and after the family has children, they will be separated, and the government will distribute another 20 acres of guaranteed land!"

"Officials and generals are given land for meritorious service, and the maximum shall not exceed 2,000 mu, and officials are not allowed to buy land privately, let alone their relatives!"

"No matter who it is, if the family has a large amount of land in the past, and if it exceeds the prescribed amount, the status quo will be maintained for the time being, and the government will not take it back, but these people are only allowed to sell the land from now on, and they are not allowed to buy the land, if anyone dares to buy the land, or buy the land in an improper way, once discovered, not only the newly purchased land will be confiscated, but even all the previous land will be confiscated!"

"Let's talk about land taxes, in the future, taxes will be collected on the basis of capitation taxes, but taxes will be collected on the area of land owned, so the matter of re-measuring land should also be put on the agenda and implemented as soon as possible, and strive to measure and count all the land in my jurisdiction before the beginning of spring tomorrow!"

Qin Feng also talked about the management and commercial tax of merchants, and said: "At present, the commercial tax on bulk commercial trade is too low, and the people can be encouraged to do business, and it is convenient to set up stalls and open shops, but it is necessary to strengthen management, especially to strengthen the management of the small officials below, small traders can't earn a few dollars a day, and they have to be exploited by the soldiers patrolling the streets, the small officials of the yamen, the market rangers and other parties, how can they live this life?" ”

"In the future, only the government is allowed to collect taxes, and whoever extorts money from soldiers and market rangers patrolling the streets will be arrested by the government, and the government will not allow petty officials to enrich their pockets and extort additional extortion when collecting taxes!"

Qin Feng said a lot of things.

Zuo Ling wrote them down one by one.

After it was over, Zuo Ling remembered something and said: "There is a matter that has been delayed and has not been disposed of, and this matter has to be decided by the lord!" ”

Qin Feng asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"It's the warriors who rebelled last time, most of these people have been arrested and locked up in prison, and it's up to the lord to decide what to do with them!" Zuo Ling said.

Qin Feng waved his hand without thinking about it and said: "Don't think about this matter, since they have the courage to rebel, they should bear the consequences, and they will all be dragged outside the West City Gate and beheaded one day!" ”
