Xiang poured the wine, picked up the wine glass with both hands, and sent it to Liu Zhen. The clean is full of turquoise fruit wine, the green is greener, verdant, the white is whiter, the jade is moist and creamy, and the faint fragrance does not make people intoxicated, and for a while it is impossible to distinguish whether it is the fragrance of wine or the fragrance of daughters. Taking the wine glass, Liu Zhen's fingers casually swiped over Chunxiang's slender jade fingers. He could feel the warm and delicate skin, full of vitality, and he was really beautiful.

Haruka's body trembled, and a red cloud flew on her palm-sized face. Chunxiang was fifteen or sixteen years old, just when her love was first blooming, and she didn't hate Liu Zhen's lightness. Yahuan has nothing to pick and choose. What's more, Liu Zhen and Liu Ershao are not only handsome and chic, but also famous in Lin. If he hadn't been born in the Liu family and had the reputation of the Qian family, he might have become filial piety. If she can be favored by Liu Zhen, Chunxiang can be regarded as a step to the sky.

There have been a lot of things happening recently, and Liu Zhen doesn't want to get involved. Hiding at home and drinking alone, Liu Zhen doesn't mind having something to do. Liu Zhen laughed and teased Chunxiang from time to time to cover her mouth and chuckle, while putting his hands on her petite and delicate elastic body. Soon, Haruka's little face turned red. Just when this man had a concubine and the adulterer and adulteress hit it off, "Kuang?" With a bang, a person came in through the door from the outside.

"Get out!"

Liu? Pushing the door in, seeing this situation, he couldn't help but feel annoyed, and scolded with a straight face.

Chunxiang's little face turned white, and there was no blood at all, Liu? is in the famous Ziqian family, and she has done all the bad things, so she can't help but be afraid. Hurriedly saluted, Chunxiang trotted away, from Liu? Slipped out of the side.

When Chunxiang is gone, Liu? Cover the door, turn around, your face is as heavy as water, when is this, his son is still drinking and having fun here.

"Father, are you well?"

Liu Zhen saw his father come in, but he didn't care, and bowed down to greet his father.

"Humph! Haven't you off yet! ”

Liu Zhen was 'shocked', "I don't know what the child did wrong, and the father is still so angry?" ”

One is not good, and in the blink of an eye, it will be a disaster, Liu? Where are you in the mood to laugh with your son, "Zhen'er, when is it, don't play tricks with me!" ”

"Father, please be seated. What's the use of being anxious now......"

Liu? With a flash of light in his eyes, he was a little flustered, but this was not what his son should say. Besides, things have come to this point, Liu? Can't help but be in a hurry. Sitting on the floor, Liu? Grab your glass and drink it all. Liu Zhen filled his father again. Liu? glared at his son, picked up the old cup and smelled it, and then he spoke:

"Zhen'er, there is news in the yamen that Li Gang has set his sights on Qixiang......"

"Oh......"

"There is also news from Qian Zhuang, Tian Li went to see Xiang Feng yesterday......"

"Oh......"

"In addition, Tian Chun was caught......"

"Oh......"

Liu? Furious, he skimmed the cup as soon as he raised his hand, "You 'oh' fart!" ”

Liu Zhen flew away, but the wine glass was full of wine, and he dodged the wine glass, but he couldn't dodge the wine. Liu Zhen flicked his sleeves and brushed away the wine stains on his body, he was not annoyed, but laughed:

"Father, is it Wang and Song? They instigated the Tian family to make trouble, did you also participate? ”

"No, no! What am I involved with them? ”

Liu? His head shook like a rattle. Wang Song and others are all famous Ziqian families. Peers are enemies, and the relationship between these people is not good, and there are still some contradictions. However, as soon as the money bank was opened, the interests of these people were greatly affected. As soon as they encountered an opportunity, they all took action together, and those who instigated trouble and spread rumors all showed their respective skills.

"That's good, that's good!"

Liu Zhen took a sip of wine and said:

"Father, the matter has come to this, and it is better to be still than to be still.

Tian Yuan's death has nothing to do with us, he borrowed money from Brother Qi Xiang, and there are many people who can borrow money from Brother Qi Xiang, no matter how powerful Li Gang is, he can't find us on the head......"

"That's just as well. However, Qi Xiang has been gone for so long, and I don't know, where has he been? ”

Liu Qixiang should be trustworthy, not to mention relatives, sharing blessings and misfortunes; He killed Tahara and did so many things for him, and there was no way back. Even if he confessed to them, he died. It's better to take the blame yourself, as long as the Liu family is kept, he will not treat his whole family badly. That's the case, Liu? still hopes that Liu Qixiang can escape smoothly. Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case. If Liu Qixiang is caught, I am afraid that he will not be punished - under Miki, why not ask for it.

"Well, at that time, maybe ......"

Liu? Unconsciously narrowed his eyes to hide the murderous intent in his eyes.

"Forget it, don't talk about this......"

Liu Zhen knew his father's thoughts, and he didn't agree with his father's thoughts. Liu Qixiang has been letting go of money for more than ten years, and he has never done anything bad, and he is not Tian Yuan's fool. From the fact that he asked for money early, and after the killing, he didn't see Liu's father and son, and left Lin immediately, it can be seen that he is also guarding against extermination, where can he be so easy to get. In case something goes wrong, the first person to sue the official is Liu Qixiang.

Liu? There was silence for a while, the solution was thought up by the person, but he did not continue to say the matter, the person was already gone, and there was no point in talking about it.

"I'm afraid that Xiang Feng won't give up, should we go out and avoid it?"

"Well, it's a good idea to go out and get out of the limelight. However, father, will leaving at this time attract attention......"

Listening to his father, Liu Zhen also wanted to go out to avoid it. Dogs will jump over walls when they are in a hurry. If Li Gang is forced to be in a hurry, he will arrest his father and son and put them in prison

The torture is not so pleasant. Speaking of which, the Liu family is a good citizen, and it is also a violation of the Han law to release money. Li Gang wanted to arrest them, but he didn't have to think of excuses. However, leaving at this time will make people feel that they are thieves.

"It's okay, it's not our family ...... who left"

If there is a big storm, there will definitely be many people who will hide out, as long as they leave quietly and don't be blocked. Thinking of this, Liu? I was very unhappy, and I couldn't help but complain about my son:

"In the first place, you shouldn't have promised Wang Da......"

"Father, look at what you said, Wang Da proposed it, do you say I can refuse?"

Liu Zhen called out for Qu - Li Gang still needed an excuse to arrest them, and Wang Da wanted to get them, and he didn't even need an excuse.

To put it bluntly, the Liu family is a little rich, and they are still a figure in the market, and they can't be compared with Wang Da at all. The Plains Wang family has been a well-dressed family for generations, and the ancestor of that Wang Da is the grandfather of the general's wife, Wang Yan. In other words, Wang Da is Wang Yan's cousin who is very close, and he can talk to Zhang Han. In the early years, in order to tie up with Wang Da, Liu Zhen worked hard and spent a lot of money. Of course, it is impossible for Wang Da to support the Liu family's usury. However, with Wang Da's belt, many things will go all the way unimpeded.

On that day, Wang Da signaled him to find some trouble for Sihai Qianzhuang, and Liu Zhen was also startled. He knows the background of Qian Zhuang. This kind of battle for succession, Hugh said that he was a high-ranking official, and he would not be willing to get involved. However, turning his head, Liu Zhen felt that it was a good opportunity.

"Wang Da opened his mouth, let's do something perfunctory, that is, Wang Da won't be too much......"

Liu? Unspeakable regret, why did he get so deluded and listened to his son's instigation.

Father's words did not enter Liu Zhen's ears:

"Father, it's all this time, and what are you talking about. We worked hard, carried infamy, earned a few dollars, and had to give these officials a share of the hunger, and in the end, we had to be looked down upon. Can we just give money from generation to generation?

The general of the chariot is in full swing, and he will go further in the future, and it is impossible to say.

Muddle through?

If such a good opportunity is missed, when will our Liu family be able to enter the eyes of Zhang Gongzi......"

After a series of words, Liu Zhen realized that he was too excited, so he lowered his voice and comforted his father:

"Father, don't worry, it is unpopular for money to compete with the people, and there is such a thing, it can't last long, and the general also cherishes his reputation......"

"I hope so!"

Liu? is not as optimistic as his son, but what can he do, his surviving son is the only one, and he has been tossing for most of his life, not so that his son can have a good life:

"Pack up, tomorrow morning, you will come with me, hide for a while, and then ......"

Liu? Worried, he always felt that things were not so simple.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

"If you give a good gift, the people will not dare to be disrespectful; If the righteousness is good, the people will not dare to disobey; If you have a good letter, the people will not dare to be ruthless. Good money ......"

Let the judge continue, there will definitely be no good words, so Zhang Han interjected and teased:

"Then the people of the Quartet are carrying their children on their backs!"

"My lord, the people from all over the world are becoming scarcer and rarer, so it can be seen that this matter is not very appropriate!"

Zhang Han observed the trial in surprise, and he couldn't see that he was quite humorous. The judge has a straight face, or cold humor. The homeless people come, of course, have nothing to do with the money bank; But if the displaced people don't come, they also have nothing to do with the money village. Zhang Han interrupted the interrogation, did he think he was too much? It's just a joke. But it can be judged seriously, attacking the shield of the son with the spear of the son. choked Zhang Han speechless.

"Forget it," Zhang Han waved his hand, he was really defeated by him, "Zhengnan, open a money bank, I am not to make money, but to facilitate the people, and Quanfu is the same reason!" If I want to make money, I will increase my efforts to make alchemy, isn't it easier to make a profit......"

Zhang Han has explained many times, and he is a little impatient, but he can't agree with his opinion.

In the Han Kingdom, not competing with the people for profit is not only economic common sense, but also raised to the category of morality. Xun Zhongshu said: "The emperor is often afraid of lack of wealth and profit? The meaning of the common people is also; The emperor is afraid that he will not be able to turn the people into benevolence and righteousness, and the doctor's will is also." That is, officials and their families should not engage in commercial activities. The advantages of officials in business are too great -- just as it is unfair for a person to be both a referee and an athlete -- and it is easy to infringe on the interests of the common people and lead to the polarization of the rich and the poor.

Therefore, the trial will never agree with Zhang Han's fallacy:

"My lord, it is not a good thing to compete with the people for profit after all. Moreover, I believe what the lord says, but the people will not believe it, so what can the lord do?

Besides, the Quanfu lends money to the poor people, and the interest rate is not so high......"

"Quan" is the "money", and the Quanfu is also the money house, which is in charge of the city's taxes, buys the unsalable goods in the city to sell in the future when needed, and manages the people's loans and interest on property. The loans in Quanfu are aimed at the poor, and the interest rate is also very low, and the annual interest rate will not exceed 10%. The interest rate of the money bank is much higher.

"Zhengnan, it's not good to compete with the people for profit, and sooner or later I will stop meddling in the money bank. However, do you know that since the opening of the bank, the bank has loaned more than 10,000 yuan, and the borrowers are mainly ordinary farmers, which is enough to prove that the money village is widely welcomed and is conducive to the production and life of the people.

Once the ploughing cattle (horses) have a good job, or the biogas digester, silage room, agricultural machinery has problems, or the family is sick, it will require a large amount of money, and the farmers may not be able to take out the money in time, only to borrow. Excessively high interest rates will put a heavy burden on farmers, which often leads to

Give birth......

The purpose of opening a bank is not to reduce interest rates, to regulate the lending industry, and to limit sub-money. In order to achieve this goal, it is not enough to rely on Qian Zhuang alone, just like the original Quanfu, which has not been able to help a few people. It needs to be a lot of people involved. As for the issue of interest, if there is not enough profit, there are few participants, how can this be achieved? ”

To put it mildly, Zhang Han finally relented, and the trial took advantage of the victory to pursue:

"My lord, didn't you issue a decree to limit the interest rate to fifty percent and prohibit the rollover of interest?"

The trial was indomitable, and Zhang Han shook his head very unvividly:

"Zhengnan, you know, the law of the Han Dynasty also limits the maximum interest rate to 50%, but what is the effect?

Natural disasters are inevitable, and people will inevitably have difficulties in life, so borrowing is also an objective need. We can only try to limit its profits to a reasonable range so that the rich will want to participate and the poor can afford it.

It is impossible to impose a ban. Just like Tai Shi Gong said, people's pursuit of interests, like water flowing to a lower place, is nature, not forbidden by law! It's like I can't forbid people to study alchemy......"

Zhang Han spread out his hands, very helpless - the people who study alchemy have been banned repeatedly, and he has no choice, he can't pull these tens of thousands of people to kill them. Seeing his appearance, the judge couldn't help but smile. However, it is not easy to compromise on the trial, the smile is short-lived, and before Zhang Han can see it clearly, he regains his face.

"Lord, since this is the case, then let someone else manage the money bank. You also know that the rumors outside now are all about everything, which has ruined the reputation of the lord......"

“……”

This is not good, Zhang Han shook his head. In the future, Xiang Feng and the others will be withdrawn, and Qian Zhuang will give it to Zhang Shen, and he will naturally withdraw. This little abacus, Zhang Han will not explain the trial. In other words, Qian Zhuang was the family property assigned to Zhang Shen. A bowl of water is flat, Zhang Han can't do it, but he can't treat his children too differently. Zhang Han couldn't say this, his subordinates couldn't wait for Zhang Shen to eat, sleep, and eat, and do nothing......

The thoughts of all people can be summed up in one sentence, there are no two days in the sky, and there are no two masters in the people. The name is decided, for the sake of righteousness, Zhang Shen sacrificed some! Logically speaking, this is not wrong. It's better to cry all the way than to cry as a family. If it was someone else who cried, Zhang Han would agree, but when it was his son's turn, he couldn't bear it.

"Zhengnan, don't talk about this, since it's already corrupted, there's no need to worry. In today's situation, it is better to be still than to be still, and you have to find out what you say first......"

Zhang Han didn't want to discuss the matter of Qian Zhuang. The scope of this is too wide, and those who dare to lend usury are all rich and powerful. Let's put it this way, all profiteering industries such as salt and iron will have a noble family to control the fishing profits. Even in a prohibited industry such as loan sharking, it is inevitable that these people will be hidden behind the scenes. As soon as the money bank opened, the interests of too many people were touched, and letters of opposition poured in like snowflakes. Originally, Zhang Han stayed in the middle and did not send it, but he had already expressed his attitude, and everyone was restrained. This time something happened well, and the opponents set off a new **. All of them are righteous and strict, and they have everything to say. What made Zhang Han even more headache was that this matter also vaguely involved the Plains Wang clan and Zhang Ning.

"Zhengnan, how is the construction of the Law Park progressing, and are there any difficulties? Also, how is the progress of the compilation and editing of the Great Han Law? When will it be completed? ”

Zhang Han was not in the mood to say this, so he started another topic. After hesitating for the trial, he decided to accept it when he saw it, and find another opportunity next time.

……

finally sent away the trial, Zhang Han rubbed his eyebrows, this trial is south! Xi Zhicai watched the play for a long time without saying a word, and when he saw Zhang Han's appearance, he couldn't help laughing.

"Wen Zang!"

"Lord, I don't understand much about the money bank......

Xi Zhicai mainly didn't want to speak, there were some things Zhang Han could say, but he couldn't. Generally speaking, Zhang Han's subordinates can be divided into the following types: patriarchs, children of the Zhang family (including domestic servants trained by ethnography), scholars from Qingzhou, and new scholars from Jiyou and other states. The children of the Zhang family have an absolute advantage in the army, and they are similar in politics. However, under Zhang Han's careful design, the children of the Zhang family were divided into several factions with Zhang Jian, Zhang Huan, Zhang Lu and Wu Ziwan. In recent years, Zhang Han has also vigorously promoted new blood to balance the forces of all parties.

In the final analysis, the children of the Zhang family and the veteran ministers still occupy an absolute advantage. However, in the midst of the disturbances about the money bank, the above-mentioned people and others remained silent meaningfully. Even Guan Ning felt that he couldn't stand his son-in-law, so he didn't say anything. Of course, others are not without opinions, but they just believe that Zhang Han's actions must have deep meaning. In addition, the matter of Qianzhuang involved Zhang Shen and Zhang Ning, and they were unwilling to participate.

"Wen Zang, if you don't want to say it, forget it!"

Zhang Han understood his thoughts, and he couldn't help but feel a little lost, the higher his status, the fewer friends he had. But this is related to the net worth and life of future generations, Xi Zhicai is reluctant to speak, and he can understand. However, Zhang Han was still unhappy.

This is a bit heavy, Xi Zhicai rolled his eyes and remembered a sentence:

"Hmm...... Exercise benevolence rather than hierarchy; Educate, but one's own body is not right. ”

This was said by Kong Rong to ridicule Zhang Han in private, but somehow, it was spread out and spread widely. The scholars and doctors agreed with this. After Zhang Han heard this, he laughed it off and didn't take it to heart - the swallow bird knew the ambition of the Hongyu.

Confucianism requires scholars to value justice and abandon self-interest; develop agriculture and curb industry and commerce; Oppose extravagance and advocate frugality. He also demanded that rulers lead by example, educate and maintain rank, and practice benevolent government. Indoctrination is the foundation and the foundation of governing the country with virtue, and the ruler is the model of indoctrination.

However, Zhang Han is essentially a 'modern person', but no

Act as a criterion. The policies implemented by Zhang Han were almost miscellaneous, Confucian, legal, and business, and supplemented by indoctrination, which was far from the standards of Confucianism, and naturally did not fall into the eyes of scholars and doctors.

Xi Zhicai reiterated the old words, but he was explaining Zhang Han. Sure enough, Zhang Han was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed as well. There is no basis for talking, and some things cannot be discussed, so why bother with it. Anyway, Kong Rong is tolerant, so it won't be a bad match.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

"Sister, you have something to say!"

Liang Hui talked for a long time, but her sister didn't say a word. Obviously it's a nephew's business, he is an uncle, and he is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, but his sister is not in a hurry as a mother, the emperor is really not in a hurry, and he is in a hurry to die as a eunuch.

At the beginning of the year, Liang Ruoruo lost a lot of weight. In the past year or so, she seems to have aged three years old. Zhang Han treats her the same as before, always arrives in her room on time, and the amount of food and clothing even exceeds the past. can think of the eldest son, if how can there be no resentment. But what about resentment? "The palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are full of meat, do you have to fight to the death for their brothers?" - Recalling Zhang Han's roar, Ruoruo's heart trembled. After a long time, if she doesn't resent it, her smile will be much less.

"Say what?"

If you have finished reciting the prayer in a low voice, then you will speak. She knew at first sight that this "Holy Scripture" was the handwriting of her husband. Although her husband smiled and said nothing, Ruoruo still affirmed this. After reading it a few times in her spare time, she seemed to have a secret in common with her husband - it was a good feeling, and she liked it. After coming and going, others thought she was religious. As everyone knows, if you are thinking about your husband.

"Hmmm......"

Liang Hui is Ruoruo's second brother, a full ten years younger than her. The eldest sister is like a mother, if she glanced at him lightly, Liang Hui didn't realize that her tongue was a little shorter.

"The ...... of the Four Seas Money Village"

Liang Hui didn't know how to continue.

"Isn't it just a dead person, it's a big deal, look at the ...... that makes you anxious"

There are a lot of things to say, if you don't want to say it to your brother. Zhang Han made up his mind, who can change it. What is it to die Tahara, it is good to die!

"Well, it's okay if the money bank can't go on, Bo Zhong does something, it's better than opening a money bank. Our Liang family is not short of money......"

Liang Hui suddenly thought about it.

"However, sister, if this matter fails, it won't affect Bozhong, right?"

“……”

If you smile bitterly and don't speak, what will be affected, the heir will be decided, and what else can be influenced. Her thoughts were seen by Liang Hui, and he immediately became anxious - Zhang Shen became the emperor, and the Liang family was the emperor's relatives; Zhang Shen can't be the emperor, the Liang family is a relative of the former emperor, and they are the thorn in the eye and flesh of the new emperor:

"Sister, you are confused! If this matter has not been settled, it will still be undecided. You don't think about the Liang family, you have to think about Bozhong. The days to come are long! No matter how difficult things are, they may not be impossible to fight......"

When it comes to Ruoruo's heart, she doesn't care, no matter how arrogant Wang Yan is, with Zhang Han, she can't be arrogant. But Zhang Shen is still so young, what will he do in the future? However, there is really little hope for this matter, unless Zhang Ning himself disappoints Zhang Han, and Zhang Han is the last willing to see his sons fighting each other......

Ruoruo's eyes flashed with a cold light, and as soon as he raised his hand, he stopped Liang Hui's talking:

"Second brother, are there any officials who support Zhang Ning, it is best to be from the Wang family, if you have a little weight, you can still move him...... Of course, this person can't have anything to do with you or the Liang family! ”

Seeing that his sister was moved, Liang Hui was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked:

"How?"

“……”

Ruoruo whispered something, Liang Hui nodded sometimes and shook his head, Ruoruo's idea was not so easy to do.

"I'll think again, I'll think again......"

Liang Hui was both happy and worried. If the idea is too good, it will be difficult to find this candidate. He must also be able to instigate and move, and he must not leave any flaws, and he must be a little clever and have some prestige, and he must be able to incite a group of people to act with him......

Liang Hui thought about it for a while, but there was no suitable candidate, and it was inconvenient for him to stay here for a long time, so after staying for a while, he pretended to leave as if nothing happened.

After Liang Hui left, Ruoruo sat for a while, she was a little excited and a little worried. In her apprehension, she felt as if she had only officially recovered at this time. It's fun to fight with the sky! It's fun to fight the ground! It's a lot of fun to fight with people! After walking around the room a few times, if you notice it, the room is gray. This time the mood is not good, and the subordinates have learned to be lazy. Thinking of the cold words a while ago, Ruoruo's heart was about to explode. After setting up her own heir, she suffered so much idleness that she couldn't imagine that someone would dare to bully her. Fortunately, she also knew that it was not time, so she reluctantly endured.

Soon after, Wang Yan got the news. Since Zhang Ning was appointed as the heir, there have been many people who have come to flatter her, and she is very well-informed in the house. It's a pity that the Liang brothers and sisters? As he spoke, he retreated, not knowing what they were saying.

Wang Yan pondered for a while, and then guessed the matter. If Ruoruo's health has not been good since he got sick, Liang Hui stayed longer than usual, and he thought he was talking about something. In addition to the child's business, Ruoruo is afraid that he will not take other things to heart. Recently, there has only been a wealth of money in the four seas, and I heard that there is still a dead person - a good death - but I don't know what happened......

Wang Yan thought about it again and again, and decided to call his son Zhang Ning to discuss countermeasures together.

ps: This is yesterday. It's lazy to divide into chapters. Today's. I'll have to wait until the morning...... (To be continued)
