Tan Jiaxing arched his hand and said: "This matter is so, and it is also thanks to Lord Sun's suggestion, if it weren't for Lord Sun seeing the opportunity inside, how could Tan Mou think of such a way to state this land maladministration in the court, so that Yao Yungui would be speechless and dare not fight back." Although Tan is an official in Yunxi Prefecture, he has not joined hands with Yao Yungui to do things, that is, he feels that although this person is delicate and clever, but he is too despicable and despised by Tan, whether it is the court or the state capital, there are ways to make money, such as overreporting expenses, or nepotism, no matter how bad it is, there are also subordinates who are filial piety, in Tan's view, although these are a bit out of accordance with the law, but they are all human nature, harmless and righteous, but what Yao Yungui did was to put the people in this place in a poor place, everyone, etc., are doing cattle and horses for his Yao family's forces, and becoming slaves, although he is now making a huge fortune, but in Tan's opinion, he is indeed the first chaotic minister and thief in this dynasty, and these unsightly deeds will only loosen the foundation of the court in this state. Every time I think of this, I am naturally full of hatred for Yao Yungui and others, but I hate myself for being soft-spoken, and I can't shake it, I can only protect myself. Now, with this opportunity, being at the same level as such chaotic ministers and thieves, he will naturally make some contributions to the people of this state, so that the people of this state have some way to live, so that the cultivation of the imperial court will not be in vain. ”

Sun Zhaoyuan heard Tan Jiaxing's words, and immediately gave up his hand to Tan Jiaxing, his eyes were full of respect, and said: "Lord Tan is worthy of being a student who is highly valued by Teacher Jindeha, and everything he thinks about is for the sake of the people of the court. Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations, this is the greatest ambition of our imperial examination scholars before entering the office, if there is a chance to ensure the success of this state, Lord Tan is really a merit, the people of this state, I am afraid that they still have to build some ancestral halls for Lord Tan in various places, and offer incense. ”

Tan Jiaxing said: "Lord Sun has a good reputation, if you wait until the official leaves office and returns home, the people here say that Tan is a good official, it is the heavens to create, how can you expect these people to build a shrine, but Lord Sun has done so many merits, I want to be able to leave a name in history in the future, even if the people build a shrine to worship, it is not an accident." ”

Ma Rushan also answered: "Master Sun is a masterpiece in the world, when he was in Jianzhou, although he had never commanded the army before, he commanded properly, and he was able to help the Holy Lord recapture Jianzhou. I want to build this ancestral hall for Lord Sun, let alone those people. If the maladministration of this place is really changed by Lord Sun, it will really be a great achievement, and it should go down in history. ”

Sun Zhaoyuan said with a smile: "The two adults have said too much, and I also need the help of the two of them to get things done." ”

The two of them immediately bowed their hands and said: "But listen to Lord Sun's orders, even if you go up to Daoshan Mountain and get off the oil pot, you will never frown." ”

Sun Zhaoyuan said: "The matter of land maladministration is now a start, will those big landowners finally not be able to bear it, return all the land to the people, and then watch the after-effects, at this time, I have two things that need the help of two adults, the first of these is the big exam next month, and we need to let the scholars of the whole state stand strong for us." ”

Tan Jiaxing said: "What does Master Sun mean? Forgive me for being stupid, I really don't know how the scholar can help me and wait for my prestige. ”

Sun Zhaoyuan said: "If we wait for those big landowners to return the land and pay taxes on money and grain according to the actual output, I am worried that these big landowners will unite and take the opportunity to sue our state government to compete with the people for profit, deprive the land and industry, and the taxes will be too heavy, and then we will be passive." The only people who want to come to this state can oppose this matter are these big households, and the people must be happy, and the scholars must be proud of our move, so what I mean is that Lord Tan will make this matter a scientific examination topic, and those scholars are united, and they are united in the test paper to state the matter of land maladministration, and to make a strong reputation for us, even if these big families unite to sue the capital and sue the royal court, it will not be able to turn it over, and we will be more secure. ”

Tan Jiaxing said: "This matter is easy, Tan is already a state saint envoy, although the subject of the scientific examination is determined by the township examination sent by the imperial court, but it will also look at my face." If I come up with the question cleverly, I don't let the township test examiner see the intention, and insist on using this question as a scientific exam, I want to be whoever does the township exam, and I will definitely not stop it, Tan can do it, please rest assured. ”

Sun Zhaoyuan said: "There is another thing that is to trouble Master Ma." If these people make a violent uproar, they are afraid that they will overturn this Longdu Mansion, and if they want to come to Jiang Sheng's hands to catch them quickly, they will not go to suppress them, and they hope that Lord Ma will first send 40,000 soldiers and horses from Luyang Mansion to be stationed in various prefectures and counties of Longdu Mansion, if there is something, the soldiers of the military department will go immediately to suppress the rebellion, so that the siege can be lifted. If there is really something to do, let these people develop and grow, and Yao Yungui and others fan the flames in other prefectures and counties, then Yunxi Prefecture will be in chaos, and I will inevitably be questioned by the imperial court when the time comes, and it is not good to blame the poor management of errands. ”

Ma Rushan said: "This matter is also very easy, that Longjin has now been taken away by me real power, although he still has some henchmen, but in the military camp, I have installed many reliable people, even if the 40,000 people are transferred from Luyang Mansion to Longdu Mansion, the situation is also under control in my hands, as long as the military camp of Luwei Mansion does not move, and hold Luwei Mansion to prevent the Three Kings troops from sneaking up on Yunxi Prefecture, then this Yunxi Prefecture is solid, and it is all held in the hands of Lord Sun." ”

Sun Zhaoyuan said: "This is very good, as long as the army is in the hands of you and me, and the speech orientation is beneficial to you and me, then Yao Yungui will not be able to make waves no matter how talented he is." ”

Several people agreed clearly, and drank until late at night, drunk Fang San.

When Sun Zhaoyuan returned to the house, he saw that Yu Yin Qiao was already lying on the bed, Sun Zhaoyuan tiptoed to bed, only to hear Yu Yin Qiao sigh, Sun Zhaoyuan didn't dare to speak, for fear that Yu Yin Qiao would be woken up by him, and waited for a long time, but there was no movement, so he lay down and fell asleep.

Unconsciously when it was time for the township examination, Deng Qiang spent all his savings and finally obtained the understanding of all the villagers in Tujia Village, so he was sentenced to exile for a long time, leaving a life.

At this time, Ma Rushan and Tan Jiaxing both acted according to the plan, and Ma Rushan transferred all the soldiers of Luyang Mansion to various prefectures and counties of Longdu Mansion to garrison, so that these big landowners did not dare to move, and Baona Longdu Mansion did not make any major incidents. And Tan Jiaxing also cleverly wrote the disadvantages of concentrating land on large households into the scientific examination questions.

The students of Yunxi Prefecture have long been dissatisfied with the chaos in Yunxi Prefecture, and they are deeply sympathetic to the tragic experience of the people of Longdu Prefecture. The public opinion in the whole Yunxi Prefecture instantly stood on Sun Zhaoyuan's side.

is a stupid person, things have come to this point, and they all know that there must be a promoter behind all these events, not to mention Yao Yungui, a very thoughtful person, he already knows that Sun Zhaoyuan's trip is by no means like the previous governor, who came to live in peace with him, but has set his sights on these state capitals.

Although Yao Yungui's heart is like a mirror, and his face is as usual, he always greets Sun Zhaoyuan with a smile, and he is completely in the dark.

That evening, for some reason, there were very few reports from the public office, so Sun Zhaoyuan went back to the governor's compound early to wait for Yu Yin Qiao to come back, the left could not wait, and the right did not come, looking at the sky, as usual, Yu Yin Qiao should go home, Sun Zhaoyuan couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

Li Hua suddenly came to Sun Zhaoyuan and said: "I have seen Lord Sun, today Mrs. Sun and I went to the east of the city to check the account books, and saw that those account books were actually vacant for hundreds of taels, and it happened that the lord of the city returned to his hometown today, and our two women were only shallow in learning, and some of the accounts were not clear, so Mrs. Sun said let me come to Lord Sun to help check, and if I want to come to the champion to check, it will not be wrong." ”

Sun Zhaoyuan said: "Why didn't Qiao Qiao come back to me with you?" ”

Li Hua said with a smile: "Today, Mrs. Sun is a little uncomfortable and too lazy to walk back and forth, so she asked me to come to you and drag you over." ”

Sun Zhaoyuan and Li Hua went to the east of the city together. Li Hua didn't take the main road, picked a small road, chose a back door, and entered a house. When I entered the house, I didn't see Yu Yinqiao.

Sun Zhaoyuan said: "What about Qiaoqiao? ”

Li Hua said: "I think it's because I'm not feeling well, which room might I be resting in, Master Sun will sit for a while, and I'll go find her immediately." And he closed the door and went out

Sun Zhaoyuan saw Li Hua go out, so he sat in the room and waited, and after a while, a woman with a graceful figure and excellent temperament, dressed in revealing clothes, came in with a teacup in her hand, and said, "Lord Sun, the little woman came to serve tea to the adult." ”

Without waiting for Sun Zhaoyuan to answer, the woman came in with a smile, knelt on the ground, and handed tea to Sun Zhaoyuan with both hands. Because of his thin clothes, his body was glanced at by Sun Zhaoyuan.

Sun Zhaoyuan said: "Girl, please get up, I'll stay for tea, you go out quickly, wear more clothes." ”

The woman was not in a hurry to go out, knelt on the ground, watched Sun Zhaoyuan take a sip of tea, and said slowly: "Lord Sun is coming from afar, please take a sip of tea to moisten your throat, this tea is ......." What kind of tea is this, where it is produced, what stories are slowly told to Sun Zhaoyuan, Sun Zhaoyuan listened to her gentle words, graceful posture, and all kinds of amorous, and couldn't find a chance to interrupt the conversation, so she kept telling it.

The door was thudgeons, slammed open, snapped twice, and slammed against the wall.

Sun Zhaoyuan fixed his eyes and saw who Yu Yin Qiao was.
