He planted peonies in the Tang Dynasty

A middle-aged man came out in response.Gu Yue raised his eyes, and finally saw the true face of this person.His brows are shallow and his eyes are narrowed, his appearance and figure are not average, but when he bows with empty hands, his sleeves are even and his hands are calm, which is quite particular.

"There's no need to be too polite." Gu Yue continued, "I just don't know how Fang Sicang felt when he saw this disaster."

Fang Wencheng replied tearfully: "Master Gu, although the matter of water transportation has nothing to do with Cangcao now, and the lower officials dare not go beyond their duties to say more, but seeing the blood and sweat of the people soaking the long embankment, I feel unbearable. Wherever you go, you will die forever."

Gu Yue couldn't help laughing: "I will never let go of family affairs and state affairs." Fang Wencheng frowned: "Master Gu, why are you laughing?" Gu Yue said: "Fang Sicang is right, the matter of water transportation will indeed not be the responsibility of the warehouse department in the future. , seeing you here is just a coincidence, it has nothing to do with the robbers hijacking measuring tools, the main thing is to talk about the young crop tax."

Gu Yue, as the deputy envoy of transfer, is also the doctor of the warehouse department of the household department of Shangshu Province, and handles the fifteen land taxes.

Therefore, according to Gu Yue's request, Zhu Sicang memorized the code: "Every year, tax is collected according to the young crops, and the two liters per mu are regarded as righteous warehouses to prepare for the unlucky year; , and then distributed. When you are old and rich, you pay money and increase the current price to collect it; if you are not familiar with it, you pay millet to reduce the current price and show it off.

"Master Gu's meaning," Fang Wencheng glanced left and right, "Do you want the lower officials to report according to their accounts now?"

Gu Yue nodded, and asked directly: "Last year and the year before last, what kind of year?" Fang Wencheng replied: "Flood year." Gu Yue said: "Not necessarily, Gu heard from here that only the southern [-] miles of Henan Province were affected by floods. .”

Fang Wencheng said: "My lord, the disaster year is a public judgment by the Ministry of Household Affairs." Gu Yue said: "Before the public judgment, did your company issue an ultimatum to the Ministry of Finance?" Fang Wencheng said: "Let the officials go back and investigate." Gu Yue said Yue said: "There is no need to go back."

"As an official, Gu is embarrassed to compose poems, and the system is even worse. He dared to take up the position of the warehouse department of the household department only because of his meritorious service in the management of Changping warehouse in Guanzhong. It is said that people do not forget their roots, so Gu has always had a habit of Never leave the account book. Changting."

Ji Yun searched carefully all the documents received by the Shangshu household department in recent years, and found that there was indeed such a document, but it was a day late.

Fang Wencheng wiped his sweat, and explained: "Master Gu, please be careful. There are clear regulations. If you encounter someone who is not able to follow Feng Shui, you will have to check the seal in the next lawsuit. Listening to it will save half the effort. In this way, a day's mistakes are allowed." of."

Gu Yue said: "Then why don't you ride a horse instead of a boat?" Fang Wencheng: "This..." Gu Yue said: "Answer."

"One day's difference led to misjudging it as a year of waterlogging all year round, collecting two liters of tax per mu from young crops, and transferring it to a charity warehouse for relief. In this case, Gu is still sober after handling it, so I have to ask one more question, Fang Sicang, this sum Where did Qian Liang go?"

In this way, every penny must be weighed, interrogated for a full six years, and all mistakes were carved on the stone pillars by the county magistrate Qiu Zhong.

"It seems that Fang Sicang should first ask his fathers and fellow villagers in Luoyang what dereliction of duty is, and then talk about the affairs of the family and the country. Sicang's sincerity of repentance."

Throughout the whole process, there is no mention of water loss, just like those white flags and grief-stricken cries do not exist at all.Bazhou Sicang watched in panic as Fang Wencheng knelt down on his knees crying for being wronged, kept silent, and went back to fill in the official documents overnight.

However, although the stone pillar that Gu Yue erected brought more than a month of peace, it failed to save the delayed fortification.

In April, the Ministry of Zhongshu issued an official document, ordering to release the labor service first, divert the Bianhe River to plant rice, and then build the dam in autumn. In this way, the water reform will benefit the farming season, which is equivalent to declaring that the transfer mission cannot be completed within the year. Task.

Not only Heyin, but also Taiyuan warehouses and Sanmen warehouses that are close to it are also facing similar dilemmas and choices.

It seems that Pei Yaoqing gave up Zhang Jiuling for Zhongshu, but it is the deputy envoys who are really responsible.

The swords and blood and tears in the official documents have always been such a spring breeze and drizzle. For some reason, they come and go silently.The officialdom is vast, and I don’t know how many boaters who have survived the huge waves have lost their sobriety in this trickling water.

With such twists and turns, no one hesitated, Li Longji ignored it, and still held a banquet in the court, and wrote "Ling Chang's New Precepts" to the county magistrates all over the world. Therefore, the courtiers began to try to figure out the holy meaning, and searched for alternatives to water transportation. new way.

For a time, a hundred schools of thought contended.

Li Yi, Minister of the Ministry of War, Xin An Wang Liyi, proposed to the Ministry of Zhongshu Province not to prohibit private casting of money because of insufficient national expenditure.

At the same time, with the colorful clothes and the solar eclipse, Luoyang City also surged with a torrent calling for the capital to be moved.

The major clans were constantly discussing that since the eastern capital is so prosperous, as long as the capital is moved, according to the original transportation system, in addition to water diversion and farmland, the supply can keep up with the supply even in famine years, so why bother to bear the high price of reforming water transportation?

It was night, a pottery bean lamp illuminated a koan, a thin roll of bamboo slips, two or three pieces of bamboo were blown away by the breeze.

When Ji Yun entered, Gu Yue rubbed his temples with one hand, and pulled out the wick with the other hand.In just one month, three buckets of oil have been burned.

"What I was worried about before has now come true. Cui Yingong kept silent and provoked the two elders to fight against each other. This move is too powerful." Ji Yun sorted out the official documents, "Unfortunately, there is no evidence... ..."

"Changting is hard work, it involves power and profit, and the truth is useless." Gu Yue got up, woke up, took a few letters from the locker, and confessed, "Your exam this year is more important, so go back to Luoyang earlier Prepare, I have already entrusted Youfu Yin with the matter of making the paperwork, most of the friends at the banquet are generous and will definitely help you."

"Gu Lang, Changting has the guts to ask one more question." Ji Yun took it and lowered his eyes and said, "How should I write current affairs policy?"

Gu Yue smiled.

In the court, Gu Yue only colluded with Pei Yan and Li Yao, and it can be accompanied by the implementation of the five major projects. On the one hand, Li Yao, who gave in at the burning banquet, couldn't help but cast it privately because Zhang Jiuling also wrote a letter, and became unwilling to accompany it. On the other hand, Pei Yan didn't say anything, and there was only a thin, blank piece of paper sandwiched in the private letter to Gu Yue.

In Gu Yue's mind, the face of Cui Yin, who was standing behind Li Linfu on Wufeng Tower and wearing a hairpin, appeared.

Spider webs are inherently weak, but the key to hunting lies in their vertical and horizontal structure and transparent texture.Not seen by others, the venom is only sprayed on the horizontal lines, and when the spider itself approaches the trapped insects in the web, it avoids the horizontal and vertical, enjoying the feast.

Gu Yue drew more than ten circles on the bamboo slips, representing water transport restructuring, private casting, and moving the capital to Luoyang, etc. These methods are undoubtedly solutions to the lack of cost in Guanzhong.At this moment, he wants to divide horizontally and vertically.

"First of all, we can't help but private casting. If the private casting of money is allowed, the poor will not be able to forge it, so the rich will become richer. During the reign of Emperor Wen of Han, the reason why Liu Bi was as rich as the emperor was the result of private casting of money."

"Let's talk about moving the capital to Luoyang, the eastern capital..." Gu Yue smiled wryly, and directly drew a horizontal line on the circle, "That's an old dream."

After crossing out the redundant horizontal road, only a narrow and winding vertical road remained on the bamboo slips.Looking at this road, Gu Yue felt as if he was stung by a spider's thorn in his heart. He survived the dizziness and pain of seeing blood, and felt numb and determined.

"A husband and sage are not stagnant in things but can move with the world. The world is prosperous, why not go with the flow and make waves?" "Gu Lang changed the word 'turbidity' to 'Dingtai'." , Changting can figure it out for himself."

After sending Ji Yun away, it was already three o'clock in the night, Gu Yue washed his face, saw the lights next door were brightly lit, so he went to visit.

Lee Do-yong is writing a letter to his family.Gu Yue sat down in front of the couch, clasped his fingers on the desk, and said calmly: "I've decided to obey the law and obey the law, and not release the work." Li Dao paused like a firecracker, abandoned his pen, and walked back and forth in the room.

"This is a violation of the order. If there is impeachment of the fifth rank, it is a rebellion. If there is an impeachment of the third rank, it is treason."

Gu Yue hummed: "Before the burning tail banquet, brother Daoyong specifically instructed that, in addition to the advance writing of Yanli, he also had to get the plan for water diversion and farmland from Sinong Temple in Heyin County. Does this mean that there is a way to take care of both?" Two ends?"

Li Daoyong turned around abruptly, with fire in his eyes: "One moment and another moment! There is no way right now!" Gu Yue borrowed a pen and paper and said, "Then, we can only disobey the government order, delay the farming time of [-] people, and ensure that we can do it before the flood season." Finished."

Said that the mountains, rivers, sun and moon are too far away, he only knows that a roll of bamboo slips, a small county of thirty li, is enough for him to move around.

April, May, June, day by day, Gu Yue found a loophole in the system of receiving documents issued by government orders, which has been tried and tested by hundreds of officials, that is, if the feng shui is not good, it will be issued in the next lawsuit Checking the seal, listening to half the effort, and performing a play with Li Bin and You Huanzhi, which delayed the release period by more than two months.

The losses caused by the delay in sowing were all temporarily issued paper deeds from the government, and they were paid off by borrowing grain.

Another measure is to advance the last project of digging the diversion canal for irrigation of the farmland to the same time as the embankment repair. obey.

The impact from the Heyin warehouse cannot be ignored even for Chang'an and Luoyang, which are currently in the midst of moving their capitals and making money.Those Lang officials walking in the long corridor in front of the hall all felt the tremor under their feet and the sound of their heads.

"Dispute: The censor Cui Zongzhi's petition, Cangbu Lang Zhong Gu Yue, Shui Bu Lang Zhong Li Daoyong, County Magistrate Qiu Zhong, forcibly captured the power of the people." Exceeding authority to pay Zhitian tax."...

A letter of complaint was piled up on the desk of Zhongshu Province like catkins, accompanied by the singing of cicadas in summer.

On this day, the petty official hurried past. It was rumored that Pei Yan, a member of Zhongshu Tongshi, had just arrived in Luoyang from Chang'an, and had come to pay a visit to his teacher Zhang Jiuling, but he couldn't see him. It is still peaceful and stable, so quiet that even the "ding dong" of water droplets falling into the lotus pond can be heard clearly.

"Sir, Ji Chun is late."
