The emperor's decree was sent to Luodu in an expedited manner of eight hundred li.

After Mrs. Hu read it, she showed it to Lu Zhi and Zhang Yan. Lu Zhi slapped his big hand and summoned the guards to surround Xiao Lei's mansion in Luodu and arrest Xiao Lei.

Subsequently, 100,000 taels of gold and 500,000 taels of silver were found from Xiao's house, and countless kinds of property.

Lu Zhi didn't dare to hide it, and truthfully reported the situation to the Spirit Emperor.

Besides, although the Xiao family in Pingyang County burned down for a day and a night, the main room and the grain depot survived.

The salary of a Jiuqing official with a rank of 2,000 stone is equivalent to a monthly salary of about 40,000 yuan, and the grain inventory at home has reached 100,000 stone! Equivalent to a million catties of grain.

Moreover, there are land deeds alone, reaching 20,000 acres. There are also countless barren mountains and woodlands that have been forcibly occupied.

Emperor Ling calmly looked at the numbers on these bills and asked Yang Aruo, "Yang Feng, what do you think of these?" ”

"Young Master," Yang Aruo glanced at Emperor Ling, saw Emperor Ling looking at him with encouraging eyes, and continued: "The Xiao family is the richest man in Pingyang County, and this time when they encounter the tip of a gun, they will definitely confiscate their property and land. ”

The Spirit Emperor shook his head.

The first innovation of Dahan started from Pingyang County.

"Yang Feng, inform the county guard of Pingyang, there is something to discuss."

At this time, Wang Yue couldn't understand who this young man was, and he actually asked the county guard to come to see him?

Thousands of black-clothed guards are protected, decisive in killing, extremely wise, and a young man surnamed Liu, isn't it the young emperor who killed the ten permanent servants?

Once Wang Yue had this idea in his heart, he felt more and more that this young man was the current saint.

Thinking like this in his heart, he calmed down and saw how the emperor dealt with this tricky matter.

After a while, the county guard Su Dazhi rushed over and was about to kneel, but Emperor Ling raised his hand and said, "Ordinary etiquette will be waived." Master Su, now the criminal officer Xiao Lei's family has 20,000 acres of fertile land, and I am ready to sell it. ”

"Holy ...... What Lord Liu said is very true, then I will call all the local gentry, and whoever bids the highest will get the good land......"

Emperor Ling interrupted him and said, "I auctioned 20,000 mu of fertile land this time, and there are conditions. ”

The Spirit Emperor thought silently for a while and said his conditions:

First of all, these fertile fields can only be bought by the common people who have no land, and if they find out that they have land in their hands, they pretend to be landless, and they will be caught and killed.

Second, only one penny is charged per mu of fertile land, and each peasant household can only buy a maximum of two acres of land.

These fields do not need to be taxed this year, and will not be officially taxed until after the autumn of next year.

When the Pingyang County Warden heard this, his eyes rolled and he said happily: "Lord Liu, this method is good, it can let ordinary people have fields, this is the most holy and good way in history." ”

"That's okay, Lord Su will arrange a proclamation, and each county will send a county official to guard the proclamation, and it must not be hidden. In three days, I'm going to see the results. ”

"Yes, Lord Liu, my subordinates will definitely do things steadily and well!" After that, he took his leave and left, but he was as furious as when he came.

Emperor Ling watched the Pingyang County Guard leave quickly, but he shook his head and said in his heart: "I hope this idea doesn't hurt too many people." But my knife is not soft. ”

"Wang Yue, I'll give you one thing, ...... tonight" Emperor Ling gently explained to Wang Yue for a while, Wang Yue listened, and couldn't help nodding yes.

......

It's dark at night.

In the Pingyang County Guardhouse, the lights are bright.

"What a deal! I have never seen such a stupid, good farmland, one acre of copper plate, no tax this year, if all these 20,000 acres are 'bought', three taels of silver per acre of land, this alone will be 60,000 taels. ”

"If the tax is collected again, it is estimated that the tax silver will be two thousand taels. Little Emperor Liu Hong didn't think that these fields would become ours, hahaha. ”

The master couldn't stop nodding, but he still had some doubts, and said: "Master Su, this little emperor is very ambitious, I'm afraid that if we do this, we won't be able to get the head to the ground......"

Su Dazhi rudely interrupted his master's words and hummed: "Wealth is in danger, 60,000 taels of sterling silver come in, are you willing to lose it?" In the future, there will be an annual grain output of 70,000 stones, and the tax will also be 50,000 stones, which is five times higher than the annual salary of the three princes of the imperial court. In this life, get this time, it's enough! ”

The master still persuaded: "Master Su, the 13-year-old Ten Standing Servants of the current Holy Saint who fought against the murder and rebellion, dug out a loyal general like Huangfu Song as a henchman, and when he came to Pingyang County for a day, he cut off the Xiao family with a knife, this young emperor is not ordinary!" ”

"Huh-" Su Dazhi slapped his hand on the table, and snorted coldly: "Master, Master Ben chose you from among all the staff members because he liked your talents, and asked you to come to give advice, not to let you stop me from doing things." What is set tonight will not change, you have to do it, you have to do it, you have to do it if you don't do it! ”

"Hey—" The master sighed in his heart, but bowed his head in agreement.

Wang Yue, dressed in black, hung upside down on the beam of the corridor, pricked up his ears, and listened to all the conversations between Su Dazhi and his master.

Wang Yue heard the two of them call Liu Hong the little emperor, which just confirmed his guess.

And the fields of 60,000 taels of silver, the two of them had a conversation as usual, and they divided these imperial fields.

All this was expected by the young emperor, and he dug a big pit and waited for Su Dazhi to jump in.

In three days, Emperor Ling sent a large number of black-clothed guards to check the release of the notice in Pingyang County, and also checked whether the farmers knew about the auction notice of the good land.

When the information was summarized, Emperor Ling's small face sank deeply.

The notices were only posted in a few places in Binh Duong County, and no one guarded them, and no one preached the contents of the announcement.

Literate people came forward to watch, but were driven away by the servants.

This is to make it clear that he wants to take these 20,000 acres of fertile land for himself.

Emperor Ling thought about it, and immediately asked someone to call Liu Na.

It didn't take long for Liu Na to arrive at the account and kneel down to salute, but Emperor Ling asked, "Liu Aiqing, how are the guards training now?" ”

Liu Na hurriedly reported: "Back to the emperor, since the emperor used the new method to train those dozens of guards, these guards have used the training method in the entire black-clothed guards, and the effect is very obvious. ”

"I still run ten miles every day, and when I come back and practice the new style of boxing created by His Majesty, it has also begun to become a climate."

Emperor Ling heard this, and said happily: "Liu Aiqing, you are the same as me, you are also surnamed Liu, and you are the Zhonglang general who guards me, you are still young, and in the future, it will be easy to rise to the rank of general with military merits." ”

After a pause, Emperor Ling said again: "However, I am not a faint monarch, on the contrary, I want to be a great emperor of the Han Dynasty, and I take it as my responsibility to surpass the ancestor Emperor Wu, therefore, I will be strict with my cronies, and only by being strict with you can you have greater room for promotion." ”

When Liu Na heard this, his heart trembled with excitement, "Mingjun is hard to find, what kind of luck did I, Liu Na, go, to meet the wise young emperor, follow him, fight the world, and manage the world!" ”

He pouted, knelt on the ground hard, and said earnestly: "Your Majesty, Liu Na must be strict with himself and be a loyal minister through the ages!" ”

Emperor Ling waved his hand, helped Liu Na up, and said, "Now Su Dazhi is bold and wants to annex my 20,000 acres of fertile land. Liu Aiqing, you will lead 1,000 black-clothed guards, wearing civilian clothes, to find 1,000 poor farmers who have no land in Pingyang County, and I will actually distribute the land to them. ”

"Yes!" Liu Na bowed, then withdrew from the big tent, and from the 3,000 black-clothed guards he brought, 1,000 people were extracted, and then turned into ordinary people, scattered all over Pingyang County, looking for the real destitute people.

As soon as this plan comes out, it will cause great changes in Pingyang County, causing the world's heroes to rush to Luodu, just to witness the true face of the true dragon emperor.
