People in Datang have been expelled from school

Chapter 1116 Investigating fields
Hearing this, Li Tai jumped up, "Li Zheng! I will fight you."

Du Hu quickly grabbed Li Tai, "His Royal Highness, calm down!"

Seeing that the stigma would be borne on his head for the rest of his life, Li Tai gritted his teeth.

Du Hu pulled Li Tai and said, "His Royal Highness King Wei, let's pour out the horse manure."

After finishing speaking, Du Hu pulled Li Tai away.

Li Zheng said to Li Yifu: "Call Duan Lun and Shangguanyi, and bring them along."

Li Yifu nodded and went to work.

Half an hour later, Wei Zheng and a group of officials from the household department arrived.

Duan Lun and Shangguanyi also hurried over.

Everyone is in front of them.

Wei Zheng said: "The old man was ordered by His Majesty to come to Jingyang to assist the household department to check the acres of fields in Jingyang."

This Wei Zheng still had an old face, and Li Zheng said with a smile: "Thank you Zheng Guogong, I dare to ask the Ministry of Households how to check."

An official of the household department stood up and said: "First, check the grain yield per mu in Jingyang, and then re-measure the land in Jingyang."

Li Zheng looked at Shang Guanyi and Duan Lun and said, "Did you all hear that?"

Shangguanyi nodded and said, "Understood."

Li Zheng said to Wei Zheng: "Duke Zheng and the Ministry of Households can follow Shangguanyi and Duan Lun to investigate. Shangguanyi is our deputy county magistrate in Jingyang. He is in charge of the autumn harvest. If you have any questions, you can ask. he."

The title of agent county magistrate is a bit weird, but Wei Zheng doesn't care.

Duan Lun took several officials to measure the fields.

Shangguanyi took Wei Zheng and several household officials to check this year's autumn harvest.According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, the county and county are responsible for the autumn harvest in various places, but Jingyang is special, and Jingyang is opening up wasteland every year, which has also led to the fact that the court and the central government have never been clear about the acres of fields in Jingyang.

Shangguanyi brought Wei Zheng and officials from the Ministry of Households to his mansion, where there were a lot of files on the desk of the mansion.

Shangguanyi said: "Everyone, these files are this year's farm account book, and they are all here."

It was the first time that everyone saw such a pile of dossiers.

Wei Zheng said, "Is it only for this year? According to the investigation by the Ministry of Households, the taxes in Jingyang for the past three years will be paid according to the first measured field acres."

Shangguanyi said: "Then when is Zheng Guogong going to investigate?"

Wei Zheng stroked his beard and said, "The ninth year of Zhenguan, look up three years from now!"

Shangguanyi said: "Is that really the case?"

Wei Zheng looked at the household officials beside him.

The official of the household department said: "Naturally, we must investigate carefully, otherwise how will we explain to His Majesty."

Shangguanyi said again: "Is it necessary to check like this?"

Wei Zheng nodded and said, "What? Are there any shady things you guys are hiding in Jingyang?"

Shangguanyi said, "That's not true."

Wei Zheng said loudly, "Then don't bring out the account books yet."

Glancing at the crowd, Shangguan Yichang sighed and said, "Since you've already said that, let's investigate."

First, he saluted a little, and opened a room in the government office in silence. After the door was opened, a mountain of files piled up in his eyes.

There were even a few rolls that rolled down because they were piled too high.

Thousands of volumes of memorials made all the officials of the household department feel a little weak.

Picking up a volume and opening it, there are densely packed accounts written on it. It is very strenuous just to read the densely packed words on it. When I look up at the hill-like files, each file has so many words.

Before the investigation started, everyone felt their eyes sore.

Shangguanyi bowed and said, "Everyone, please."

The officials of the household department took a deep breath as they knocked on these files. Seeing that Wei Zheng had already read the files, everyone had no choice but to bite the bullet.

On the other side of Jingyang, Duan Lun was taking several household officials to measure the fields.

The measuring stick is from one end of the field to the other end, a full 5000 meters.

Several officials were exhausted from measuring all the way.

Duan Lun said: "Everyone, this is only the first piece of land, why can't you walk?"

The officials of the household department were panting tiredly on the ground, and they did not expect that the fields in Jingyang were so big.

Until the evening, Li Zheng was sitting in the horse pen and Li Tai was eating grapes leisurely.

Li Zheng said to Li Tai: "It's really nothing, it's just some rumors."

Li Tai said helplessly: "It's like what you said about Anyang. It's already like this. Anyway, I can't explain it clearly, so there is no need to explain it."

While talking, Li Tai changed his sitting position and said, "But Li Zheng, can you stop being so wicked next time."

Li Zheng said: "At the beginning, it was just a stopgap measure."

Seeing that Li Yifu came back, Li Zheng said, "How did they check?"

Wiping his sweat, Li Yifu replied, "Duke Zheng is going to investigate Jingyang's taxes for the past three years, and he is still investigating. I'm afraid it won't be finished in half a month."

Li Zheng asked, "Has the field been measured?"

Li Yifu poured cold water into his mouth and said, "Let's not even mention the measurement. Those officials from the household department were exhausted, and they only measured a few mu of land."

Li Zheng thought about it and said: "Anyway, we are too busy doing the autumn harvest accounts. It just so happened that people from the household department came to help, which also saved us a lot of work."

Li Yifu nodded slightly, "Chaozhong is also warm-hearted."

This time, the investigation of Tianmu actually helped Jingyang.

Li Zheng washed his hands and said: "Give Zheng Guogong and the officials of the household department a treat, and arrange accommodation and meals for them. I'm afraid they won't be able to check it out in a month."

Li Yifu quickly said: "Understood, let's make arrangements."

Li Zheng said to Li Tai: "Find a few more children from Jingyang Academy who are good at numeracy and help them. I'm afraid those officials in the household department can't figure it out."

Facing Li Zheng's order, Li Tai was not happy in his heart, now is the time to live under the fence, bear with it!

Li Tai stood up and said, "Let's do it."

Well, the King of Wei wants to do things for Li Zheng!
Walking all the way back to the academy, Li Tai became more and more angry in his heart.

The officials of the household department have been busy all afternoon in the Chengfu Yamen of Jingyang County, and only then have they checked part of the files.

Looking at the account book like a hill in front of him, when will it be a head if we continue to check it like this.

A group of household officials relaxed their sore and astringent eyes.

On the contrary, Wei Zheng still looked calm and relaxed.

Li Yifu brought food and said to everyone: "Chang'an Order said that you may not finish reading the memorials here for a while, so you have prepared meals and rooms. You can stay here during this time."

Wei Zheng put down the memorial in his hand and said, "Such good food and wine are served, so it's not because they want to bribe me to wait."

Several officials of the household department thought to themselves, they can buy it quickly, and they don't want to check anymore.

Li Yifu smiled sincerely, "Duke Zheng was joking, we sincerely want to entertain you all, and besides, there is a shortage of manpower for these things, and these meals are for everyone."

The officials of the household department: "..."

I don't know that the official of the household department said suddenly, "I don't want to do it anymore."
