Chapter 172

Zhao Sheng's actions were absolutely thunderous, and he had simulated this matter many times in his mind.Hubenwei came down from the battlefield, so he didn't need to do much, standing there could frighten a group of people.

Zhaojia Village is a relatively affluent village in Baxiang, but the atmosphere of the whole village is very dignified now.

"Third Uncle, is the imperial court really going to take over our land?" A dark-faced farmer said anxiously.

We are all ordinary farmers, and the fields are our foundation. It seems to us that the imperial court has bad intentions to measure our land.

"You have also heard the rumors outside. If it is really a good thing, how can there be so many voices of opposition. The land of our Zhao family is Futian. It is not that there were no people from the government who wanted to take our land. If not Your Yuanfang uncle is an official in Bianliang, we don't know if we can keep our land."

"Yeah, even if that's the case, the nearly one hundred acres of good land in our village has not been taken away." Another old man sitting on the side had a look of resentment on his face.

"This time, the government wants to measure the land. The whole world belongs to the government. Why should it be like this?"

"Yes, I heard that there are many official industries, and the shipyard belongs to the official."

"Who would dislike a lot of money?"

"Exactly, if it wasn't for the loss of land, why did you take so many people to measure it? It must be to find out our background. Third Uncle, why don't we ask Master Jiutang in the capital?"

"Yeah, that's all the land left in our village."

"........."

"Okay! You think we, old men, haven't asked about it. It's just that your master Jiutang has retired, and you don't know anything about the court affairs."

"Yeah, people take tea to cool down. If it weren't for this, the good land in our village would not be in the hands of outsiders."

"Then what shall we do?"

"No matter what, we can't let those people come to our village. I will let Qing Zhuang take some guys to block the village entrance. I don't believe that people from the imperial court can send troops to kill us all. This is not about our village. It is the business of the people of the world."

A grumpy looking old man stomped his feet and said.

"Second brother, the matter hasn't reached that point yet, let's sit down and discuss it."

"There's nothing to discuss about it. If we don't have land, we'll be hungry sooner or later. It's better to give it a go now."

"I heard that the imperial court really sent troops this time, the emperor's own troops who came down from the battlefield. If we really do something, our side may suffer heavy casualties."

"Even if it is, I won't let anyone take away our land."

"Second Uncle is right, we can't take our land no matter what."

"Correct!"

"That's right, it's been passed down from generation to generation in our Zhao Family Village, so we can't lose it in our hands no matter what."

"Yes, I can't be sorry to my ancestors."

"........."

The ancestral hall suddenly boiled over.

At this moment, a young villager hurried in.

"Third Uncle, here we come, the imperial army is here!" As soon as the young man saw him, he immediately knelt down.The tone is full of panic.

"Ah, it's really here."

"Big, big army?"

"Are you here to kill us?"

"How to do?"

"Come on, follow me if you have blood, if you want to enter the village, you can step over our corpses!" The irritable old man jumped up and walked out when he heard the words of the crowd.

"Second brother, why are you going, you are not allowed to go!" The old man who had been silent for a long time finally said.

"Brother! It's this time, if we don't be tougher, how will we live in the future."

"Shut up, I'll go and have a look!" The old man looked very old.With the support of a young man, he stood up tremblingly.

Outside the village, in front of the person in charge of the surveying team is a group of young people from the village, and behind him is a tiger guard.The first one was a Jinshi named Hu Can.He was a Jinshi in the imperial examination in the middle of the previous year, and this time the task of measuring the land was an order from above.I thought of the so-called training course I attended before and the Huben Guard who followed me.

Hu Can suppressed the impatience in his heart, this time the whole errand had to be recorded.If Yin's attitude causes trouble, it will be far away to fill the vacancy in the future.

Uncle Zhao was helped by everyone to the entrance of the village. When he saw the group of people at the entrance of the village, he was shocked.The sergeant on the horse seemed not to be trifled with.It gave people a completely different feeling from the Xiang Jun I had seen before.

Hu Can also came from a poor family, and when he saw the old man surrounded by everyone, he knew that the other party was someone who could talk in this village.

Hu Can took the lead in saluting gracefully: "Old man, Zi is the person in charge of the land measurement group sent by the imperial court. I was ordered by the officials to measure farmland and prepare for the implementation of the land equalization method."

"Why does the imperial court want to measure our land? This is the property of our ancestors for generations, and there is no criminal proceeds. Could it be that the government wants our land?"

Hu Can frowned: "Old man, please be careful, the official family is rich all over the world, how could they seize the private property of the people without authorization."

Hu Can didn't think that these rural people who didn't know a single character could understand those avenues.However, according to the previous training, I told you the Tao in a simplified way. When you see your confused look, you know that you have said it.

"Old man, in the whole world, is it the land of the king, and the shore of the land, is it the king's ministers. Today you also saw these people behind me, they are the relatives of the official family. The matter of measuring the land is not you and me. I'm evasive. The old man is an old man, so he should know what a gentleman who understands current affairs is." Hu Can looked at the old man with a threatening tone in his tone.

I also came from the bottom, knowing that it is useless for these people to talk nicely, and there are certain tasks that need to be completed.

"you……"

"Second!"

"Big brother!"

"Let us in." The old man closed it.

"Big brother!"

"Human life is important."

"Yes!"

"Are you going to take the whole village there? What is the crime of disrespecting the order?"

Hu Can hooked the corner of his mouth, knowing that the matter was over.

After the measurement team entered the village, Hubenwei directly set up a tent in an open place in the village, and did not rest at the villagers' homes.

"Master..."

"Hu Benwei has regulations, and it will not offend the people of the country. Don't worry about it, old man."

"This this!"

The villagers on the side were also a little surprised when they saw this situation.But the heart is relieved.We are really afraid that these military masters will have no scruples in the village.That's fine, as long as the girl at home doesn't go out, probably nothing will happen.

Hubenwei's work was passed on to the ancestral hall, and the two old men looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Maybe that's not such a bad thing."

This is indeed not a bad thing. With the demonstration of the Huben Army, those measuring officials did not dare to make any big noises, and worked honestly.The pro-army of the official family has never done anything wrong to the people. How dare the officials recruited from these places dare to pretend to be masters in front of these sergeants.

So the villagers in Zhaojia Village saw the officials and military masters who were very polite to them.It's completely different from those who came to the village to do business in the past.

For a while, everyone was talking about it.

There was a brave girl who went out to see those tiger army.For a while, it became a landscape of the village.

This kind of thing made the atmosphere in the village much better. Then, in three days, Hu Can found the village and asked why there was no record of paying taxes on the nearly [-] mu of good land.

Zhao Cun told the matter that this land is no longer yours, it is already the property of Yuan's family, the master of Fuzhou.

Hu Can wrote down the matter, and then the task of measuring the field was completed, and the group left as grandly as when they came.The day's itinerary did not cause any trouble for the village.

Looking at the people leaving, the villagers all looked puzzled.

"Big brother?"

"Look again."

Then we received news from the government that the nearly [-] mu of land that Yuan Jiaqiang wanted was returned to Zhaojia Village.The entire Zhaojia Village was in an uproar.

Zhaojia Village is a wealthy village with a radius of [-], and the news of their land being measured is naturally known to everyone. The villagers who have been vigilant before seeing this are also very puzzled.

So when the measurement team came, they didn't stop them.

Then all the land that was robbed in our village was returned.Of course, some land is bought and sold normally, and those will naturally not be taken back.

Such things were written into stories and published in newspapers, and soon the survey team no longer existed as rumored.

Naturally, Zhao Sheng also got the news, and the process of measuring the land was accelerated a lot.Of course, for those big landlords with a lot of land under their names and hidden fields, Zhao Sheng's Huben Army will tell them what the wrath of the emperor is.

"Just these people?"

"Currently these are the people, and some are still hesitating." Cao Hua answered with a bow.

"The quantity is enough, you can do it."

"Yes."

Soon Zhong Yi took the rest of the Huben army and surrounded the mansions of many honorable ministers in the capital.Then they ransacked their homes and sent them to prison, which was very fast.

Chu Palace

"This king is the prince, the heir of Emperor Taizong, are you planning to rebel!" The detained King Chu felt guilty and angry when he saw Hubenwei rushing into the palace and searching everywhere.

Zhong Yi didn't bark like a defeated dog. He knew that this time the officials wanted to cleanse the honorable clan, and there was nothing more effective than the charge of treason, so the King of Chu was sure of it.

Ningyuanhoufu

"Mother, mother, save me! Mother!" Prince Ning Yuan Hou was escorted out by Huben Wei, crying and howling all the way.

"Xuan'er, Xuan'er, who are you, let the princess' son go." Princess Ning hurriedly followed beside Hubenwei.

"Bold, who are you? How dare you treat my son like this. I am Princess Ning, conferred by the late emperor. Are you planning to rebel?"

"Master!" Princess Ning came to the front hall, and then saw Ning Yuanhou who was also detained.

Ning Yuanhou didn't look at her, nor did he care about his crying son.

"What's the matter? Master, what's the matter?"

"Master?" Princess Ning was taken aback by Marquis Ning Yuan's resentful expression.

"Why do you dare to ask? I am sorry to my ancestors for marrying such a poisonous and stupid woman like you."

"What are you talking about? I am the princess of the country, and it is a blessing to marry your family!" Princess Ning is proud of her status as a princess. It is a low marriage.Now hearing what Ning Yuanhou said, he subconsciously refuted it.

"Blessing? Is it the blessing of the Zhulian Nine Clans? If it weren't for you, how could we be with the King of Chu... Hey!"

"Prince Chu?" Princess Ning was startled. Could it be that something has been exposed, but she is still the princess.

This time Hubenwei took the lead in copying Cao Xiaowei of Ningyuanhou's mansion, he would not care about the affairs of Ningyuanhou and his wife, and directly wanted to take people away.If it weren't for the title of Princess Ning, it would not only be Ning Yuan Hou He's son who was taken away this time.

"Mother! Mother!"

"Xuan'er!"

Princess Ning grabbed her son.

"Give it to the princess. I am the princess who was conferred by the first emperor. You dare to disrespect the princess. Do you still have the king's law? Are you planning to rebel?"

Although Princess Ning is a woman, she does not have the strength to scatter. On the premise that she cannot be hurt, the two parties have come to a stalemate.

Princess Ning beat and detained Ning Yuan Hou Shizi's tiger army army one after another. Because of her status, the tiger army army dared not fight back.

"The decree has arrived!"

"It's the imperial edict, it must be the imperial edict of the official's pardon, you guys." Princess Ning felt that the official would not do anything to her because she was favored by the queen mother.

Captain Cao frowned.

"...to seize the title of Princess Wang,...to beat the common people...not to leave the mansion."

"No, it can't, it can't."

Cao Hua, who came to proclaim the imperial decree, would not understand her crying, but let a strong nun who came with her pull Wang aside.

This is a big cleansing that can be recorded in the annals of history. Not counting the clan, it deposed a lot of county kings, let alone nobles.A large number of dignitaries who stubbornly obstructed the reform were confiscated on the charge of treason, and those who seized their titles were confiscated.

Subsequent reforms cleared the way.

Zhao Sheng is not a benevolent monarch, but the country is rich and the people are strong under his rule.

Although because of not respecting the precepts of the ancestors, the scholars did not have preferential treatment in the time after the dynasty.I was hated by scholars and learned some slanderous words.But the evaluation of the public is very good.

Sima Guang recorded in the Historical Records that Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty was good at economics, his literary rule was not as good as Renzong, and his military rule was not as good as Taizu Taizong.It's just that later generations of experts and scholars do not agree with this evaluation.

Especially when the tomb of Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty was discovered, some diaries of Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty were recorded, which explained a lot of the situation of the Song Dynasty at that time, as well as his ruling ideas.

Experts found that Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty had many advanced ideas in governing.There is even speculation on the Internet that the emperor is a time traveler.
