Chapter 0650 - Proof of Possession
Ran Min believes that if you want to really understand the people's feelings, or find a way to deal with the scholars, it is not useful to rely on the Zhang Mu of Jinyiwei, as well as the officials of various places, and the cooperation of various families who "know the current affairs".
In the final Ran Min dynasty, he may be able to rely on his own strong enough prestige to force the scholars to bow their heads and compromise with him.
But in the long run, the later kings of the Great Wei Empire grew up in the palace wall compound, did not know the world, and only knew how to listen to the advice of their subordinates, and it is estimated that this emperor will be abolished!
As the saying goes, if you listen to both, you will be clear, and if you listen partially, you will be dark.
Why do those monarchs who can make a career and create a prosperous era like to pay private interviews?
It's not that they are idle and have nothing to do, or they like to travel in the mountains and rivers or something, but these emperors know very well that their country is so big and has such a population, there are always places where the sun can't shine, and there are always people who disobey his will and the decrees of the imperial court!
Wu County is the domain of Yugong Yangzhou. Since Zhou Taibo let the country run, there has been a sentence of Wu's name. King Wu Keshang, after the seal of Wu, to the beginning of the city to build the capital. Wu died, and his land entered Vietnam. Chu extinguished Yue, and sealed Chun Shenjun Huang Xie with his land.
Later, Qin merged the world, and Wu Yue was the county of Huiji. Xiang Liang raised troops and was known as Wuzhong.
When he came to the market in Wu County, Ran Min couldn't help but bow his head slightly when he looked at the bustling and bustling scene, feeling very satisfied.
The scene of the prosperous era is nothing more than this.
If every place in the Great Wei Dynasty can be as rich as Wu County, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the country and the people are safe, then how can there be any wars in this world?
But there is only one in Wu County and only one in Jiangdong. The huge Jiangdong and the huge Yuzhou have been economically equal to Jizhou and Yanzhou, the richest in the Central Plains. This was unimaginable before, if there was no historical tragedy of Wuhu Chaohua, the northern scholars would not have chosen to move south, creating a prosperous land in Jiangdong.
Of course, Ran Min thinks so, not because he thinks that it is a blessing. If the prosperity of Jiangdong is created in this way, then Ran Min would rather Jiangdong be the same as before, the people can only have food and clothing, and the place will not be too rich.
The people's wish is very simple, in fact, as long as they have a mouthful of food to eat, they have something to rely on and support for the elderly.
Ran Min has experienced too many things, and he has also seen many tragic human tragedies. In the huge Wei country, there are still people starving to death, and there are still people who are sick and can't be treated, but Ran Min can't change this status quo all at once, so he can only change it slowly through his own efforts.
Just when Ran Min was taking Dong Qiaoqiao aimlessly shopping, in the crowd behind them, two men with roe deer eyes had been looking at them from time to time, and when Ran Min keenly felt something and looked at the past, the two men quickly retracted their gazes, pretended to be calm, and were still holding a dazzling array of goods on the street stalls.
Well?
Ran Min felt quite confused, he once wondered if Dong Qiaoqiao next to him was too beautiful and eye-catching, so these two men would frequently look at it?
But Ran Min immediately abandoned this idea, because these two guys had been following behind him, as if they were following him!
Dong Qiaoqiao is good-looking, but in order to keep a low profile, she deliberately changed into a common person's outfit, slightly powdered her face, and put on a mediocre makeup.
Looking like this, Dong Qiaoqiao looks very beautiful, but in fact it is not very eye-catching.
After all, Dong Qiaoqiao is in her thirties, but she is well maintained and her charm is still there, but the makeup has already covered up her true appearance, no matter what, it won't make these men have bad intentions, right?
Ran Min continued to take Dong Qiaoqiao to the stall on the corner of the street to shop.
He knew that the nearby Jinyi Guards and Guards would definitely dispose of the tails for him.
Sure enough, before Ran Min could give instructions, the two men who were following were patted on the shoulder by the Jinyi guard behind him and said, "Come with us." ”
"You...... Who are yours? The man stammered, apparently startled.
But before he could resist, the brocade guard came up directly and hooked his neck, and in a position that was invisible to others, the brocade guard directly put the dagger against his abdomen, and whispered in his ear: "The brocade guard handles the case." If you don't want to die, come with me. ”
Jin Yiwei?!
Jinyiwei is notorious, and nine out of ten people who are targeted by Jinyiwei will not survive, and this man is also frightened, so frightened that his face is like earth, and he hurriedly followed this Jinyiwei away.
It's not that he doesn't want to resist, it's that he doesn't dare to resist at all!
Even if he resists, Jinyiwei can directly correct him on the spot!
Jin Yiwei handled the case and showed his waist card, who would dare to ask? Seeing that the two tails behind him were cleaned up, Ran Min took Dong Qiaoqiao to continue to wander around.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Suddenly, a group of men in standard clothes with ring-headed iron knives pushed a way, and then swaggered over.
This is the kind of person who is talking about tyranny.
Ran Min was standing on the side of the street and watching, an old man was pushed to the ground and fell down, Ran Min hurriedly helped the old man up, and said, "Old man, are you okay?" ”
"Thank you for your life, I'm fine."
Fortunately, this old man's body is quite tough, otherwise the ordinary old man was pushed like this, not to mention that his head was broken and bleeding, at least it was not very comfortable.
Ran Min didn't want to be too conspicuous, so he didn't go up to see the righteousness and reprimand those villains' rampant and domineering behavior, but asked the old man: "Old man, who are these people?" In broad daylight, Lang Lang Qiankun, how dare they be so domineering? It's even more majestic than the poor people of the county government! ”
"Alas! Who's to say it isn't? Housheng, listening to your accent, you should be a foreigner, right? ”
"I'm the Huang clan in Wei County."
"Oh, no wonder this accent is so similar to that of Jizhou. In the next life, these people are all members of the Zhu family, they are in a hurry, there must be urgent matters, they are so domineering on weekdays, so we are used to it. It's just that the old man couldn't dodge just now, so he was pushed to the ground by them. ”
Speaking of this, the old man couldn't help but feel annoyed for a while, as if he was annoyed by his lack of compromise.
"Zhu? Is it the Zhu family, one of the four surnames of Wu County? ”
"Yes. The four surnames of Wu County, that is the top wealthy family in my Jiangdong land, even those high-ranking county officials and lords on weekdays have to be polite and give three points. As the saying goes, there are seven officials in front of the prime minister! The status of these scholars is so respectful, so even the servants under their door are so arrogant and pretending to be mighty. ”
Hearing this, Ran Min couldn't help frowning: "I took a look at it, these servants are all carrying weapons. Do you know if they ever have a certificate of possession, old man? ”
"Proof of possession?"
The old man shook his head and said, "In the next life, you shouldn't be so unfamiliar with the world and the world." The armed proof is aimed at us ordinary people, and it is aimed at those chivalrous men who fight the sword world, but for these servants under the clan, this set does not work at all! In the past, the imperial court issued an order to kill Hu, encouraging the people to kill Hu people, and Han people could get a reward for killing a Hu person. ”
But because of this, the folk martial arts prevailed, almost to the point where everyone was armed and all the people were soldiers. But that's just the people in the north, in our Jiangdong or the entire south of the Yangtze River, in fact, they are not affected by the "Killing Hu Order"! Therefore, in the south, the so-called armed certificates are all rangers, or people from rich and noble families, as for these domestic servants, where will they issue any armed certificates? ”
Ran Min's face sank: "In this way, aren't these unlicensed armed domestic servants breaking the law?" According to the laws of the Great Wei Dynasty, these people who possess knives, guns and weapons without proof of possession of weapons will be fined 50 yuan in treasure money and serve half a year of hard labor! ”
The old man sneered and said, "That is the law of the north, and it does not apply at all in the eyes of us southerners." ”
North-South split?
Even if it's just an ideological split, a split between systems, this is something that Ran Min can't tolerate!
