Chapter 53 Travel

After planning the affairs of the college, Xiao Jingxuan began to focus on reassuring the people.

In the entire Fanyang range, the land is vast and sparsely populated, even if there is a military tun, there is still a large amount of wasteland, and Shenzhou, Weizhou, and Shunzhou are too desolate.

To this end, Xiao Jingxuan plans to design several counties in these three states, and at the same time the county order encourages childbearing.

Although the number of people in Fanyang is not very large at present, Xiao Jingxuan believes that with the displaced people and prisoners transferred by the imperial court, the population of Fanyang will be greatly increased.

In addition to the population, in terms of taxes, Xiao Jingxuan has also made great adjustments.

Previously, in order to feed the huge army, the Yan State paid a very high tax, in addition to heavy labor, the field tax also reached ten taxes and five taxes. To this end, Xiao Jingxuan reduced the agricultural tax to 20 taxes and 1.

You must know that at this time, most of the agricultural taxes in various countries were ten taxes and three, and in some places even reached ten taxes and four taxes.

Twenty taxes and one can be said to be a very low one, and at the same time, Xiao Jingxuan also stipulated that during spring ploughing, try not to abuse the people's power and levy labor at will.

Now, the academy next to Yingzhou has almost been built, and the captives from all over the country are idle, so they can't be raised in vain.

So Xiao Jingxuan began to use the captives to re-dredge the official roads between the states.

Fortunately, this is the north, and it is not a matter of dredging and expanding the official road, after all, as long as the road surface is leveled, some narrow places are widened.

Although it takes a lot of manpower to build a road, it also takes a lot of energy.

However, these things don't need Xiao Jingxuan to worry about, Xiao Jingxuan only needs to give a general opinion.

Then, Ding Weiran will begin to gather people to start researching, and after the article is drawn up, it will be handed over to Xiao Jingxuan for review.

After Xiao Jingxuan's approval, Ding Weiran will go down to each room, and then the chief officials of each room will coordinate and implement it.

With Xiao Jingxuan's series of policy combinations, the lives of the people in Fanyang have shown a thriving scene. All of them are very motivated.

Although the living standards of the people cannot be improved in the short term, it has given hope to the people in the territory.

Of course, although Xiao Jingxuan's policies are quite good, the specific implementation still needs a lot of supervision.

For this reason, the trump card in Xiao Jingxuan's hand, the secret guard, also began to play its due role.

Xiao Jingxuan gave the secret guard great powers, including the monitoring of officials large and small in the territory, major generals in the army, civil tycoons, court officials, and enemy barbarians.

Of course, in order to restrict the secret guards, unless Xiao Jingxuan's warrant, the secret guards do not have the right to arrest people and try cases.

In the past few days, Xiao Jingxuan has often inspected the barracks, and now the shortages in each battalion have been filled, and various trainings have begun.

The training of the infantry is still relatively simple, after all, tuntian is the first priority at present. Of course, this is not to say that training is not important, and each infantry battalion will have a soldier who does not need tuntian as the main force.

However, compared to the infantry, the training of cavalry was much more difficult, first of all, the war horse.

You must know that in the battle of Yan and Wei, the cavalry lost almost half, although after the baptism of war, the surviving soldiers became much more elite, but people can be recruited again, but the war horse weapons are not so easy to raise for a while.

But fortunately, Toyosu is still under his control. The commanders of the various departments in Toyosu are all their own old departments.

And war horses are not so scarce for Fengzhou, and they can transport a batch of emergency to Xiao Jingxuan at any time.

However, with the family of the imperial court, the jealousy of the noble ministers towards Fan Yang will inevitably block Fan Yang. I'm afraid it will be difficult to get supplies in the future.

Fortunately, Shenzhou is now in his own hands, and through the barbarians, Xiao Jingxuan can still get in touch with Fengzhou.

However, if you want to open up the passage of the grassland, you must wage war against the grassland tribes.

This year, it won't work, this year, Xiao Jingxuan's Fan Yangjun still needs to recover his strength and take a break. I can only fight again next year.

Having said that, Ding Weiran's ability is really good, and all kinds of government affairs are implemented by him in an orderly manner.

And with the increase of personnel in various departments and the accumulation of work experience. There are fewer things for Xiao Jingxuan to worry about.

On this day, Xiao Jingxuan was boxing in the mansion, only to hear applause from the side.

Xiao Jingxuan was shocked in his heart, not to mention the defense in the mansion for the time being, he was a half-step innate existence, and he could be a master who could kill the powerhouses of the innate realm.

Now there are people who can sneak into their surroundings without knowing it.

Xiao Jingxuan looked up. Then, ecstatic.

"Master, why are you here?"

I saw a person jumping down from the roof, it was Xiao Jingxuan's mentor, Cui Xiwen.

Looking at the outstanding apprentice in front of him, Cui Xiwen nodded with satisfaction.

"Xuan'er's powerful bull demon fist is already better than blue."

Xiao Jingxuan smiled embarrassedly.

"The master has won the award, and the disciple has to practice more."

greeted the master to the living room, and as soon as the two sat down, a maid came in to serve tea.

Looking around, Cui Xiwen sighed.

"Xuan'er, your life is good."

"Master, now that the disciple has an army of more than 100,000 troops, the regulations that should be in place are indispensable, otherwise there will be less majesty."

Cui Xiwen listened to his disciple's argument and shook his head with a smile.

Seeing the master like this, Xiao Jingxuan hurriedly diverted the topic.

"Master, I wonder what you are doing this time?"

Cui Wenwen did not beat around the bush and directly said the intention of this visit.

"Xuan'er, this time, there are two things for the teacher to come over, the first thing is to come and see you. The second thing to do is to go to the Sword Pavilion. ”

"Sword Pavilion? I don't know what the master is saying about going to the Sword Pavilion, and whether the disciple can serve the master. ”

"You're still worried about yourself, aren't you?"

"I have nothing to worry about."

Cui Xiwen looked at his apprentice, sighed, and explained the reason.

Why are the martial arts powerhouses above the innate realm unwilling to interfere too much in the world, this is for the purity of their hearts and a better understanding of the rules of heaven and earth.

Xiao Jingxuan has been rolling in the red world, creating a heinous killing. Make your martial arts heart dusty. So I have not been able to break through the shackles and step into the congenital.

Hearing the master's admonition, Xiao Jingxuan smiled bitterly: "Master, you are obsessed with martial arts, and the things in the world are no longer in your eyes.

Earlier, I practiced martial arts to get ahead, and I joined the army just to get ahead.

Later, after I learned about my background, I was also very confused. Glory and wealth are at your fingertips. There are beautiful women by his side.

The husband lives for a lifetime, what else do you want?

But master, whenever I want to put down the butcher knife in my hand, I am reminded of the scene in Toyosu Castle.

Master, have you ever seen a thousand miles of fertile land, deserted? Have you ever seen Kyokan? Have you ever seen a woman or child who committed suicide by throwing herself into a well because she was humiliated?

The disciples have seen all of these, this is a deep feud in the sea of blood. Whenever a disciple wants to break through the innate nature, the scene of the first arrival in Fengzhou appears in his mind, and the ruins are ruined and empty. ”

Seeing his disciple's stunned appearance, Cui Xiwen was also silent for a long time.

After Xiao Jingxuan completely calmed down, Cui Xiwen said with concern: "Xuan'er, you can't go on like this anymore, you are too murderous, if you continue like this, you will not only be covered with martial arts, but you will go crazy and lose your mind." ”

"The disciple also knows that it can't go on like this, but the disciple is about to be unable to suppress the killing intent in his body."

"Well, you can arrange the things at hand, and go out with me in a few days."

Xiao Jingxuan hesitated for a moment before saying, "Yes, master." ”

After explaining this, Cui Xiwen got up and left, Xiao Jingxuan followed behind the master, and sent the master out of the city until he returned to the mansion.

So, in the next few days, Xiao Jingxuan made some arrangements for military and political affairs.

After arranging these things, Xiao Jingxuan waited for the arrival of the master.

Four days later, Xiao Jingxuan finally waited for the master, but at this time, the master's state was not bad, and his breath was a little unstable.

"Master, are you injured? Who hurt you? ”

Seeing the apprentice's concerned look, Cui Xiwen was also comforted.

"It's nothing, I had a fight with the old guy in the Sword Pavilion. But this time, the master is injured, and I'm afraid he will have to recuperate for some days. ”

"Arrange it immediately."

"No, I went back to the mountain to recuperate, and this time it can be regarded as a gain, and I still need to retreat. However, I'm afraid you'll have to go on your own road.

There's also a post here, so check it out if you have time. Maybe it helps. ”

"Disciple, these little things can be done by yourself. The master recuperates with peace of mind. ”

Looking at Xiao Jingxuan, Cui Xiwen suddenly made a move and struck Xiao Jingxuan's whole body a few times.

Xiao Jingxuan was also blinded, but after being slapped a few times by the master, Xiao Jingxuan did not feel injured. So he looked at the master suspiciously.

"I have sealed the meridians of your whole body, suppressed your internal force, and from tomorrow, you will disguise yourself and travel outside."

"Yes, master."

"Don't go north, travel south, when you are about to travel, you will go to the mountain gate. The location of the mountain gate is in Jingzhou, Yuefeng Mountain. ”

"Yes, master."

After seeing that everything was explained, Cui Xiwen warned Xiao Jingxuan about the sinister things in the rivers and lakes, and then said goodbye and left.

After seeing the master leave, Xiao Jingxuan moved his hands and feet, fortunately, although he couldn't use his internal strength, his physical strength was still there, and he barely had some self-preservation power.

Originally, Xiao Jingxuan wanted to bring some personal guards with him, but after thinking about it, he was going out to practice and bringing a group of guards, which seemed to be a bit too public. That's it.

But where to go first? After thinking about it, Xiao Jingxuan planned to put the first stop in Liangzhou, and Xiao Jingxuan wanted to go to see the place where Liangzhou Iron Riding started.

After deciding, Xiao Jingxuan simply packed his bags and rode on the road alone.
