"Prime Minister, is everything ready?"

The upcoming reform is about to begin, and everyone is very nervous at the moment. This will be a moment that will change history.

"The first batch of decrees will be issued soon. Your Majesty, you don't have to worry. Yang can handle everything. Your Majesty just needs to wait in court!"

Another notice at the city gate, but with a lot of content.

"The new law of Youyun Country's government announced:

First, the law of joint sitting, one person commits a crime and the whole family is punished, and minor crimes are severely punished;
Second, abolish the noble patriarchal hierarchy system, reward military merits, and prohibit private fighting. If private fighting is found, the crime will be judged by referring to the law of joint sitting;
Third, emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business, rewarding farming and weaving, and those who meet the requirements in farming will be awarded the title of knighthood.Those who produce a lot of grain and cloth can be exempted from labor and taxation, and use agriculture as their main industry and commerce as their "last industry". They also limit the scope of business operations and impose heavy commercial taxes.

Fourth, the individual small family system was enforced to expand the source of national taxation and military corvee.

This law will take effect immediately after promulgation, and those who violate the order will be executed! "

"it is good!"

The people present shouted long live, it seems that the people of Youyun at this moment have long hated the patriarchal clan system.

The Meng Xibai tribe was released back to Mei County, but the new law at this moment made them realize that their original life had been broken, and the emergence of new citizens had directly affected their own interests.

At this moment, the Palace of Qinzheng is full of talents, and the newly appointed officials in various places are more cautious.

Spring plowing is here. According to the requirements of previous years, the country's unified water use regulations have been posted in various regions, and the irrigation time has been arranged according to the differences in local water bodies.

Zhao Kang, the county magistrate of Mei County, immediately came to the home of the elders of Meng Xibai clan as soon as he received the water diversion order. However, Zhao Kang's obsequious attitude at this moment made the elders feel very amused.

"Okay, okay! We know, isn't it just water, and it's the same as in previous years?"

However, as soon as Zhao Kang left, the elders suddenly changed their minds.

"What water diversion order? As in previous years, our tribe uses water first, and other tribes must follow us, especially the Rongdi tribe!"

Without knowing it, Zhao Kang leisurely returned to the county government office and became the magistrate of the county.

"Look! Why use it? Enlightenment is the foundation! The Meng Xibai clan has already agreed!"

However, the same water transfer order also reached Rong Di's hands, and he was naturally elated, as if seeing a savior.

However, the accident still happened.

"Grandpa! It's time for water, and the Meng Xibai tribe still refuses to release water!"

"What?"

The old man took the child to the gate, but found that the opposite field was still being irrigated.

"It's time for you, should you return it to us? The government's water diversion order has been issued, so what are you going to do?"

"What kind of bullshit water diversion order? If you don't leave, be careful and I'll beat you up!"

"What? Hit me? How dare you give me an old bone?"

Suddenly that tyrannical man picked up a weapon and stabbed the old man directly in the heart.

"You old man, how dare you bother me!"

"Grandpa! Grandpa!"

Such a scene made the young man Rongdi next to him really see it, and he didn't expect such a thing to happen.

"What? Killed someone? Brothers, copy guys!"

The elders of Rong Di brought his tribe to the gate, preparing for the theory, but they did not expect that Meng Xibai's tribe had already made preparations.

"What? Isn't it great that the government has a water diversion order? If you don't leave, we will be rude!"

"You guys who killed me are still so arrogant and unreasonable. Aren't you afraid of the new law?"

"New law? What new law? Lao Tzu is the law here! Brothers, hit me!"

Suddenly, the fight started again. At this moment, the village informed everyone to join in. A small fight turned into a battle.
"It's not good! Mr. Zhao, something serious happened!"

Zhao Kang, who was sleeping in the county government office, was woken up.

"Oh! What's the matter?"

"Master Zhao, it's time to fight!"

"A fight? Who and who?"

"Meng Xibai clan and Rong Di are fighting!"

Zhao Kang was taken aback and couldn't believe it was true.

"Impossible! Didn't the Meng Xibai clan all agree to the water diversion order that was issued just now?"

"Oh! Mr. Zhao, now is not the time to be suspicious, someone has already died!"

"What?"

At this moment, Zhao Kang was so scared that he peed his pants, but now he couldn't take care of it, so he went immediately.

"Master Zhao, where is the armored soldier?"

"What kind of soldiers are you bringing? They are all common people, and education is the foundation!"

So the county magistrate rushed to the scene immediately, but he was dumbfounded. The intensified battle was still going on, and there were still children crying on the field full of corpses.

"Stop hitting! Stop hitting! I'm the county magistrate, tell me something!"

"Report! Something happened in Mei County, and the Rongdi and Meng Xibai tribes are fighting!"

"What? Could it be that Zhao Kang is a poor man?"

Wei Yang, who was in the process of revising the next decree, immediately stood up, so furious, which is indeed rare.

"Che Ying! Immediately take three thousand soldiers, Changsun Wuji, Jing Jian, and me to Mei County to preside over the overall situation!"

During the three-day war, Zhao Kang always followed the principle of enlightenment, but he did not expect that the situation would escalate further.

"Elder! Prime Minister Wei Yang has come to Mei County!"

A child ran over suddenly, at this moment Rong Di immediately stopped and began to wait and see.

"Zhao Kang, Zhao Kang, I think you are very clever, so I handed over Mei County to you. It's good for you to do this! Why don't you use the armored soldiers assigned to you? Is it just for the sake of looking good? Are you the county magistrate? How did you do it?"

However, Zhao Kang scoffed at such a statement, as if he was very reasonable.

"Your Excellency, you and I have different schools. Confucianism emphasizes teaching and learning. We are all common people. How can we use violence?"

Wei Yang patted the table angrily, and looked at Zhao Kang with burning eyes.

"Education is the foundation, then let me ask you, is this private fight the result of your education? Stupid!"

In front of the facts, Zhao Kang was irrefutable, but he looked innocent.

"There is an order from the government. You are the county magistrate. You should be urging, but what about you? Do you know what this is? This is dereliction of duty! According to the new law, you will also be punished!"

"you!"

"Take care of him and don't allow anyone to approach him!"

Wei Yang left without a word, and returned to his camp, only to find that the elders of Meng Xibai's clan were waiting for him here.

The visitor was not kind, this was Wei Yang's immediate feeling.

"The old man is here! What can you do?"

"Wei Yang! What right do you have to detain my people? Let me tell you, this is my territory, and I'm carrying out irrigation according to the rules of my ancestors. It's Rongdi who made trouble, and you don't distinguish between good and bad. Is this acceptable? "

"The government has issued a water diversion order, prohibiting private fighting, but you kill people first, and then take the initiative to provoke a fight, shouldn't you be in charge?"

"Hmph! People from Meng Xibai clan for generations, can't they use water?"

"Isn't Rong Di a native of China?"
