Judging from the clothes, Liu Wei said that these were the daughters of the Ding family and had a certain identity.

These ladies have been in for a long time, but they all come out with a smile on their faces, and the plates in their hands are full of 'rewards', fabrics, money bags, and jewelry, which are so dazzling that they are worth a lot of money at a glance.

Liu Wei touched his chin, glanced at the middle-aged man, and said, "Your Ding family is showing off their wealth to us?" ”

The middle-aged man was stunned, and hurriedly bowed down and raised his hand and said, "Chen Gongzi misunderstood, this ceremony has been like this for many years, and there is no intention of showing off." ”

Liu Wei looked playful, did not break it, turned his head sideways and said in a low voice with Lu Yu on the side: "Kuai Liang? ”

Lu Yu thought for a moment, and then said in a low voice: "This is Your Majesty's temporary idea, and it should not be designed in advance." ”

Liu Wei nodded slightly and continued to watch.

The middle-aged man also stood back, clasped his hands, and looked at the atrium.

Amid the discussion of the guests, the ladies walked away with a smile on their faces, followed by a group of children, not all of them, and some young people in their early twenties, lined up to enter the atrium in turn.

I thought that twenty or thirty would be considered good, but I never thought that after a long time, Liu Wei didn't see the end, and the 'children' seemed to be endless, and a little estimate would be at least more than a hundred!

"What a big family!"

Liu Wei couldn't help but sigh, one hundred and ten children, based on this calculation, the population of this family does not know how much.

The middle-aged man just smiled and did not answer.

Children spend more time, and the rewards they receive are not as rich as those before them, but they are not simple, and they are things that ordinary people cannot earn by hard work in a lifetime.

The children departed one after another, followed by a group of women, who were generally good-looking, graceful, and in groups.

But they did not go into the atrium, but at the door, and were 'rewarded' one by one.

Looking at those jewels and delicate fabrics, Liu Wei was a little envious, and said to Huangfu Jian: "Second son, when will I be able to do this?" ”

Liu Wei is really envious, over the years, the palace has been thrifty, his clothes have been generally worn for several years, and the women in the palace are not much better, and the rewards for the New Year's holidays are compared with the past, which can be described as 'shabby'.

Huangfu turned to the side respectfully, and said quietly: "Childe, this person used to be a doctor of Taixue, and he may have seen Childe." ”

Liu argued, but didn't care, but continued to look at the group of women holding the reward, leaving happily, and said curiously: "Is there anything else?" ”

The middle-aged man hurriedly turned to the side and said, "Chen Gongzi, there are also some servants, according to the custom, they must be rewarded." ”

Before the middle-aged man could finish speaking, some men, women, and children who were obviously dressed as servants came out on both sides of the atrium, and they stood side by side in front of the atrium, and some relatively gorgeously dressed servants appeared inside, rewarding him one by one.

Liu Wei stretched out his head, and probably saw that it was some meat, cloth, and money bags - obviously, the Ding family was quite generous.

Liu Wei silently calculated in his heart, these 'rewards' alone add up to tens of millions of dollars, which is equivalent to tens of thousands of yuan, and tens of thousands of taels of silver.

"It's really a big deal...... Liu Wei couldn't help but sigh.

In the past few years, Liu Wei has been tightening his clothes and food, trying his best to save money.

Tens of thousands of taels, enough for him to feed the forbidden army camp for a year!

When the middle-aged man heard Liu Wei's words, he seemed to realize something and suddenly walked away.

Liu Wei looked at his back, touched his chin, turned sideways and said to Huangfu Jian: "Second son, is there a way to turn this Ding family's money into my money?" ”

Huangfu was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly lowered his head and approached, "What does Your Majesty mean?" ”

Liu Wei glanced at him and said angrily: "There is no humor at all......

Although he said that, Liu Wei was really red-eyed, and he couldn't wait to rob the Ding family.

This Ding family's family property is afraid that it is enough for him to support the court for two or three years.

The taxes paid by the Han court for a year, and the miscellaneous ones were added together, and last year it was less than 50,000, and the property of the Ding family was more than two or three taxes for the Han court in a year.

Huangfu retracted a little stupidly, and in an instant, he really had the idea of robbing the Ding family in his heart.

With his identity, and with Liu Wei's acquiescence, it is too simple to rob a scholar, and he can completely hide from the sky and the sea, and he will not know it.

But that's too much!

Moreover, this is an extremely dangerous start!

Lu Yu naturally didn't think that the big man had reached the point of robbing a family to continue his life, so Yu Guang looked at the door and whispered to Liu Wei: "Son, Prime Minister Chen Liuguo is here." ”

Liu Wei raised his eyes and looked, and sure enough, he saw Dong Cheng striding into the door.

The surrounding guests got up one after another and flocked over, and all kinds of flattering words seemed to have been brewed a long time ago, and blurted out.

Seeing that they were about to come out, Liu Wei hurriedly got up and said, "Let's go, don't be discovered by him." ”

Huangfu was strong, and Lu Yu followed to get up and cover Liu Wei to leave.

Dong Cheng is Liu Xie's uncle and has met Liu Wei. If this is recognized, Liu Wei will be exposed this time.

Dong Chengren is tall and heroic, and he copes with ease in the crowd, and he glimpses the backs of several young people, vaguely feeling familiar, but is interrupted by a toaster, and has no time to think about it, so he has to continue to deal with it with a smile.

And when Liu Wei and the others left the house, the middle-aged man who had been standing at Liu Wei's table before held his hands, looked at Liu Wei's back, frowned and said to himself: "Didn't you say that you went to Julu?" Or am I mistaken? I haven't seen it for four or five years, I guess I'm wrong, right? ”

Liu argued out of Ding's mansion, got into the carriage, and said, "Let's go, go to the county school to have a look." ”

Shi Aying, who was driving, waited for the people to get ready, and then pulled the carriage.

In the carriage, Lu Yu and Huangfu sat on both sides respectfully.

After sitting for a while, away from the Ding family, Liu Wei still had the scenes of the Ding family's 'rewards' in his mind, and couldn't help asking: "Huangfu, Lu Yu, are all the families like this?" ”

Huangfu Jian Chang immediately shook his head and said, "Huangfu Mansion is not, my father has always been thrifty, and he has never had such extravagance. ”

Lu Yu also said: "Your Majesty, the Lu family has always been poor, and there are not so many people. ”

Liu Wei knew this, nodded slightly, thought of the many famous and surnamed families today, as if he thought of something, he couldn't help but smile, and said: "If this Ding family rebels, it can pull up thousands of people casually, if you support someone...... Hey, no more surprising. ”

Huangfu is strong, and Lu Yu knows who the 'not strange' in Liu's argument refers to, and he bowed his head silently.

The current family does have rich people, such as Yuan Shao, as soon as he recovers, he has pulled up tens of thousands of people in a short time, and the money, food, clothes, and weapons needed by these tens of thousands of people are not a small amount, but he is easy and does not take much effort.

That Cao Cao has been marching and fighting for many years by 'recruiting', soldiers, money, food, and equipment are all raised by himself, it is conceivable that these are not supported by ordinary people, and I don't know how many families are standing behind!

The support of these families is not unrequited, and every time Cao Cao wins, he will give them a huge reward in the open and in the dark.

In order to get continuous and long-term support.

There are some things that almost everyone knows what is going on, but they just can't be put on the surface!

"It's an eye-opener."

Liu Wei smiled and commented, without the slightest anger.

Lu Yu wanted to say something, but it was stuck in his throat.

Huangfu Jian Chang had something to say, and said, "Your Majesty, that surprise will come later." ”

Liu Wei snorted and said, "I remember that Chen Liu's county school was built by Cai Gong at that time?" ”

Lu Yu said: "Yes." Many county schools have been merged, and there are currently more than 1,000 scholars. There are more than 200 people in Hongdumen County School. ”

Liu Wei snorted and said, "There are more than 1,000 county schools that spend money, and more than 200 free Hongdumen schools, which is really interesting." ”

Lu Yu couldn't answer, everyone knew very well what was going on here, that is, the scholars boycotted Hongdu Menxue, and those two hundred people were just to explain to the imperial court, and even defraud the imperial court of money and food, and the actual effect was equivalent to nothing.

It can be seen from the number of admissions in recent years that Hongdumen has less than one percent!

In other words, there are only one or two people admitted in a year.

Liu Wei exhaled lightly, as if he was about to exhale his anger, opened the curtains, and looked out.

I saw that there were people on both sides of the street, the road was very crowded, and the laughter was continuous.

Liu Wei smiled and said, "Chen Liu is still good, and he has experienced less war. ”

The emperor was strong, and Lu Yu couldn't help but glance at each other, and stopped talking.

In fact, compared with a few years ago, the population of Chenliu County has also dropped by more than 30%, but under the surface of the bustle, ordinary people can't see it at all.

The two of them were a little worried, worried that His Majesty in front of them had seen too much, and something big would happen.

This is somewhat the same as the thinking of the big men in the court.

In Liu Wei's observation, the carriage came to the county school.

Liu Wei got out of the carriage and stood at the gate, only to see that on the stone tablet of the gate, two lines of six big characters were vigorously and forcefully engraved: Taixue, Chen Liujunxue.

Liu Wei looked at it for a while, couldn't recognize whose notes it was, stood still, and said to Lu Yu: "Can you go in directly?" ”

Lu Yu hurriedly said: "Weichen has already arranged it, and the son can go in directly." ”

Liu Wei immediately raised his feet and walked straight in.

There was no obstacle, and the teachers and students who came and went just looked at each other and went about their own business.

Liu Wei walked on the bluestone road, observing this county school.

The layout is quite quiet and elegant, not as extravagant as Luoyang City, and occasionally you can hear the sound of Lang Lang reading.

Liu Wei nodded with satisfaction and walked along.

After a while, he came to a bamboo forest and watched a group of young people sitting on the ground, as if arguing about something.

Liu Wei paused and quietly approached.

More than a dozen people sat together, white cloth spread on the ground, there was an incense burner in the middle, all kinds of food were placed, and a literary meeting was held in the bamboo forest.

"Zi said ......"

"Dong Shengyan ......"

"Taizu ......"

Liu Wei only listened to it a few times before frowning and leaving quietly.

Lu Yu and Huangfu Jian observed Liu Wei's expression and were silent.

After a long while, Liu Wei came to a small library building, looking at the couplets on both sides, 'the book mountain has a diligent path, and the sea of learning is endless', and he couldn't help but sigh lightly and said: "Empty talk is mispleasing to the country...... Is the textbook here still the same as before? ”

Lu Yu only felt that his scalp was tight, took a step forward, and said in a low voice: "Yes." I heard that it was personally set by Prime Minister Chen Liuguo to promote the teachings of the saints. ”

Liu Wei was noncommittal, looked at it for a while, turned around and walked out: "Let's go, go and meet your surprise, it's been so many days, let's see if I can surprise me." ”

When Huangfu Jian saw that Liu Wei called himself 'I', he knew that he was in a bad mood, so he hurriedly said: "Weichen guarantees that it is a surprise for Your Majesty!" ”

Liu Wei ignored him and walked towards the door.

Before he came, he had already done psychological construction, such as Taixue, the students were not presentable, or all kinds of black miasma, but completely ignored the empty talk.

Indeed, during this period, many celebrities and scholars were keen to talk and study the scriptures, and they were very disgusted and contemptuous of general affairs.

"Time ......"

Liu Wei sat in the carriage, lifted the curtain and looked out the window, and whispered to himself.

Many times, many things, Liu Wei clearly knows in his heart that there is no urgency, as long as there is enough time, it can be completely changed.

But sitting in this position and seeing it with my own eyes, I still couldn't help but be angry, and then anxious, and my shoulders became heavier.

"Your Majesty,"

Lu Yu smiled and said: "Weichen heard that there are new results in the land measurement over there in Bingzhou, and a large amount of vacant land has been produced. ”

Liu Wei shook his head and said, "Since the population has dropped sharply because of the war, and then immigrating from Hebei, won't the land of the plains be empty?" ”

Lu Yu originally wanted to alleviate Liu Wei's emotions, but he paused when he heard this, and said: "Wechen heard that there is good news over there in the salt field, and it is said that there is a new process, and the salt production is more and better. ”

Liu Wei glanced back at him and said with a smile: "This is good news. Alright, I'm not that vulnerable. In a few days, let's go to Qingzhou for a while, and then release the news of my appearance in Chenliu. ”

"Yes." The emperor replied for a long time.

The carriage swayed, and Liu Wei was uncomfortable, he tried his best to sit firmly, still thinking about what the Ding family had seen and heard.

Family, it's really terrible to be rich and powerful.

After the war, the court and the people both lost, and the family won big!

Almost a stick of incense, Liu Wei and the others arrived at the secret residence of the Imperial City Mansion, in a seemingly ordinary house in the southeast corner of Chenliu County.

Standing in front of the prison door, Liu Wei looked at the two people who were escorted from far and near, his expression perked up, and he said in surprise: "Oh, second son, this surprise is really good, not bad, let's get drunk tonight!" ”

Huangfu Jian smiled, with a smug face, and said: "Your Majesty, in order to catch these two people, the ministers have made a lot of effort, and several horses of the guards of the Imperial City Mansion have run to death. ”

Liu Wei put his hands behind his back, stared at the two people who were caught close with burning eyes, and said loudly: "Reward!" Reward! ”

Poof

A middle-aged man who looked obscene and had a disheveled hair kowtowed violently to the ground, and said urgently: "Your Majesty spares your life, the villain knows the guilt, the villain knows the guilt, beg Your Majesty to spare your life......"

The other is quite a bit of a fairy wind bone, standing in front of Liu Wei, without squinting, a kind of calmness to die.
