"The lower official asks to see the young master of the prince......"

"How long has it been since this king's post was handed in, why hasn't anyone come to greet him yet?"

"This Mr. Fang, he is really a little arrogant, he didn't see any of the prominent clans and dignitaries in Beijing."

“……”

At the entrance of Fangjiazhuang, there is a gathering of the wall grass of the entire capital.

Many people who had seen Fang Jue and the Ye family at odds before, and felt that this genius had not had a good life for a few days, suddenly came out and flattered.

This is the capital.

In the past few days, Fang Jue has not seen anyone, but he has not seen ordinary visitors.

There are only a few princes, Zhuge Shoufu, Mo Yuan, and Xiao Chaoguo of the Hanging Sword Division who can enter the gate of Fangjiazhuang.

The emperor never came again.

Today's Fangjiazhuang is already full of the emperor's eyes, he wants to know something, there is no need to take risks in person.

Fang Jue deliberately infiltrated the area outside the courtyard of the main mansion by the people of the Hanging Sword Division.

But some people, after all, are a little bold.

That night, a black shadow rushed into the main house of the Fang family.

"Bang-"

After a few moments, the man was thrown out of the courtyard wall and fell the stone slab, baring his teeth in pain but not daring to make a sound.

Then he ran away in pain.

"Exquisite." Seeing that the other party didn't say anything, the guards of Fangjiazhuang also nodded.

If you don't make a sound, you steal, and if you say something, you're a robber.

"Young master, someone came, and was found by the nursing home, and I threw it out." Outside the master bedroom, Dianyi reports through the door.

"Coming for what?" Fang Jue asked.

"I've seen it, I didn't bring weapons and hidden weapons, otherwise he wouldn't have survived tonight." Dianyi said coldly.

If you don't bring a blade, you are a thief, and if you bring it, you will be a robber, and you will not be guilty if you kill the government.

"It seems that there is still a sense of proportion, it's just a temptation, and the next time someone comes, I'll break my leg." Fang Jue said lightly, turned over and continued to sleep.

"Yes."

Dianyi nodded with satisfaction, the young master still has a temper and an appetite!

At the same time, the Hanging Sword Division ......

Xiao Chaoguo looked helplessly at his subordinates who were beaten and swollen.

"I asked you to see if he had hidden anything forbidden and didn't let you assassinate him, how could he be easily discovered?"

Xiao Chaoguo was speechless, this year's subordinates are not very capable.

The subordinate said bitterly: "First lord, there is no guard on that Fangjiazhuang, but the main house is full of traps...... And that Dianyi is the fourth on the list of masters, how can his subordinates compare......"

"Forget it, go get a few medicine money, and start work in two days." Xiao Chaoguo shook his head, he also knew that it was difficult for some strongmen to let these second-rate subordinates go to Fang Jue's Mansion to check.

However, Xiao Chaoguo did not dare to send a master.

Because once it is a master, it means that there is an idea of doing it, whether it is discovered by Fang Jue or known by His Majesty, it will be difficult to end.

"Yes, the subordinates retired." The man covered his face and walked away.

"But after all, you have to know what kind of temperament this young master is, and I will get along with him in the future...... Tell someone to test it, right? The young man on the side said casually.

At his waist, there is also a sword of the Imperial Sword.

Xiao Chaoguo looked at Xiao Luoye: "You go?" ”

Xiao Luoye shook his head and said, "Whoever you want to disappear, let whoever you want to go." ”

"......" Xiao Chaoguo was silent for a moment.

Xiao Luoye is the emperor's eyeliner placed in the Hanging Sword Division, so Xiao Chaoguo doesn't quite understand whether this is the emperor's meaning or Xiao Luoye's own meaning.

"Your Majesty......"

"Your Majesty didn't mean that." Xiao Luoye interrupted, his tone calm.

Xiao Chaoguo nodded, understood, Xiao Luoye had expressed his position like this before, which meant that it was His Majesty's intention.

This time, it should be the same.

"Good ......"

After a secret conversation with Xiao Chaoguo, Xiao Luoye walked out of the Hanging Sword Division.

was bumping into Ye Hongyi, who was coming towards him.

"Lord Xiao is early." Ye Hongyi casually greeted him.

Xiao Luoye looked at her and smiled: "Lord Ye has something to report to the first adult?" ”

"yes...... I've got something going on. Ye Hongyi smiled, held the book in one hand and the hilt of the Qiushui Sword in the other, and walked in.

Xiao Luoye's pupils shrank slightly, and he saw the concentric knot.

"This sword ......"

Many years ago, when God Venerated the Pavilion for the first time, Xiao Luoye was fortunate enough to see the old pavilion master, and he saw this sword in the old pavilion master.

At that time, there was no concentric knot on the sword.

"Fang Jue...... Xiao Luoye frowned slightly, his face was a little gloomy, looking outside the city and not knowing what he was thinking.

……

Last night's temptation made Fang Jue rearrange the mechanism in the main house.

It took a busy morning to finish it.

"Young master, with me here, are you too cautious?" Dianichi was a little unhappy, feeling that he was enough to protect the young master.

Fang Jue: "What we have to do has not yet been revealed, and it is destined to offend many people in the future, so we must prepare in advance." ”

The renovation of Fangjiazhuang a few days ago is a good reason to install traps.

After lunch.

Fang Fu reported: "Young master, someone from the government is here." ”

"No one is coming, the young master is gone." Pawn a piece.

"I can't stop it, I have to come in......" Fang Fu said helplessly, after all, this is outside Jinling, and it is legally impossible to fight against the government.

Fang Jue frowned: "What is the reason?" ”

He didn't believe it, anyone dared to break into his Zhuangzi, he had just been named the prince and young master a few days ago, and now he was hot.

There aren't that many brainless people, right?

"It's a ...... of Tobe"

"Tobe?" Fang Jue was puzzled, but still said, "Let people in." ”

Anyway, you can't stop it, and I want to see who dares to die.

"Zheng—"

"Norichi, put your sword away."

"Oh, young master, I couldn't hold back ......"

For a moment.

Fang Fu lured people in.

In the guest hall again, Fang Jue received this, an adult from the household department.

"The Tax Clearance Office of the Ministry of Household Affairs, Yang Qi, has seen the young master of the prince."

The comer is neither humble nor arrogant, there is no flattery at all, and at first glance it is that the comer is not good.

Tax Clearance Department?

Fang Jue narrowed his eyes, thinking to himself that he didn't owe any taxes, right?

"Lord Yang, please be seated." Fang Jue waved his hand and gestured.

Fang Fu retired, and the maid came in and offered some tea and pastries.

"Please use tea."

Yang Qi shook his head and said, "Xia Guan came rashly and disturbed Lord Fang, please don't be surprised." ”

"Lord Yang wants to get straight to the point, that's fine." Fang Jue somewhat admired this person's uprightness.

Although it can be seen at a glance that he is here to find fault.

Yang Qi glanced at the mediocre guest hall, and pointed to the Zhuangzi outside the door:

"Now that it is the autumn harvest season, the farmers on the village of Lord Fang have not paid the official grain for a long time, so the household department urged the lower officials to come and supervise it."

Autumn harvest?

Collect taxes?

Fang Jue smiled: "I, Zhuangzi, belong to the Emperor Pavilion, according to the regulations, it is the ownership of the Emperor Pavilion, and the imperial court doesn't seem to collect taxes from the Emperor Pavilion, right?" ”

Who dares to collect the tax of the Emperor's Pavilion?

That's the emperor's lineage, and the whole world is theirs, but they just gave it up later.

Yang Qi: "Hehe...... Lord Fang was reasonable, but that was before, just after you now, this Zhuangzi has changed your name...... So, now you need to pay taxes. ”

"Really?" Fang Jue stared at Yang Qi and said lightly, "My household registration is also in the Emperor Pavilion, even if I change my name, it is still considered the fief of the Emperor Pavilion." ”

"Lord Yang, you don't understand the law when you are bullying?" Fang Jue teased.

Yang Qi shook his head and said, "Lord Fang is now the crown prince and young master of the Great Xia Kingdom...... According to the system, you are a subordinate official of the Great Xia State, so even if your household registration is in the Emperor's Pavilion, you have the obligation to pay taxes as a courtier. ”

This Yang Qi, is he here to popularize the law for me, or is he disgusting to me?

Fang Juele was happy: "Even if I am a courtier, but this crop has been planted a long time ago, and I have not yet been crowned the prince and young master during the autumn harvest...... Lord Yang, how are you going to collect this tax from me legally? ”

Paying taxes is a duty, but under the laws of this era, Fang Jue cannot pay them.

Because it is illegal, if you pay it, you will admit it, and there will be more names in the future to bully yourself into paying money.

“……”

Yang Qi was stunned, he didn't expect this young man to be so clever and eloquent.

So he changed his words and said: "The lower officials see that this village is full of crops, and those who have already harvested should be paid, and those who have not yet harvested should pay taxes, right?" ”

"That's nature." Fang Jue nodded lightly.

It's not that he doesn't want to pay, he just needs a reasonable explanation, otherwise he will be bullied.

"Then the lower officials will have to perform their duties and start clearing taxes." Yang Qi said righteously.

Seeing his successful appearance, Fang Jue smiled: "How does Lord Yang want to clear the taxes?" ”

"Naturally, you will collect all the crops in the field, and when you weigh them together, you will know how much tax you should pay." Yang Qi said that this is his own job, and he is very proficient.

"You...... Do you want to dig out all the crops on my Zhuangzi and weigh them together? Fang Jue's eyelids lifted, and he was sure that this Yang Qi was definitely here to deliberately find trouble.
