Monument Yangmen

Chapter 449 Returning to Daizhou

Even if Zhao Guangyi beat his son to pieces in court, he did not exchange for the compassion of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

As the late emperor's nephew, spying on the late emperor's wife is against the law of human relations.

The third prince, Zhao Yuanxi, the future Emperor Zhenzong who was ordered by the real dragon, just fell down inexplicably.

In order to give an explanation to the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.

Zhao Guangyi lowered the title of the third prince from the title of Duke of the County to the title of Duke of the State.And he was ordered to guard the mausoleum of the first emperor, and he would never be able to repay it.

Since then, the third prince, Zhao Yuanxi, has never been destined for the throne again.

The third prince who lost his soul was carried out of the Chuigong Palace by the guards in golden armor.

After the third prince returned to the mansion, under the supervision of the great eunuch Wang Jien, he packed up his things and was expelled from Bianjing overnight to help Zhao Kuangyin guard the mausoleum.

The third prince stepped out of Bianjing City.

Someone carried the box and entered Tianbo Yang's Mansion.

The servants of Yang's mansion brought him into the main hall.

The man respectfully placed the box in front of Yang Qi.

Yang Qi opened a corner of the box, and there was a human head in the box.

The head of a beautiful woman that Yang Qi had never seen before.

"Liu E's head?"

Yang Qi stared at the human hair and asked.

The man replied: "Exactly. Mr. Zhao has already done the three things you asked Mr. Zhao to do. Mr. Zhao hopes that you will fulfill your promise."

Yang Qi covered the box and shouted cursingly: "Yang Hong, Yang Hong, let the people in the house do it and load the packed luggage into the car. It's time for us to go back to Daizhou."

Hearing Yang Qi's order, Yang Hong immediately took the servants of the house and loaded the luggage he had prepared into the carriage.

Due to Yang Qi's inconvenient movement, Yang Hong specially prepared a pair of sliders for Yang Qi, which were lifted by two people, and six people were prepared to rotate.

Get everything in order.

Yang Hong went to the Nanguo money bank again and informed them to come to collect the house.

The people from Nanguo Money Bank came very quickly.

Yang's mansion had already been mortgaged to Nanguo Money Bank, and Yang Qi didn't seem to have any plans to redeem it, so he sold it to them directly.

Handed over the key of the Yang Mansion.

Yang Qi sat on the slider, Fa Hai rode a horse, Yang Hong drove the carriage, and the group left Yang's mansion in a mighty manner.

People from the Yang family went to Loukong.

The people from Nanguo Money Bank took off the plaque of Yang Mansion, sealed the gate of Yang Mansion, and left quietly.

Tianbo Yang's Mansion was sold to Nanguo Money Bank, but no one dared to touch Nanguo Money Bank, so they could only leave it empty and send people to clean and repair it on weekdays.

Yang Qi and his party leisurely rushed to the outside of Bianjing city.

Yang Qi looked back at Bianjing City, twitched the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile: "When I come back, the sky in Bianjing City will also change."

After leaving these words, Yang Qi left gracefully.

Yang Qi left.

The news was immediately known to the civil servants in Bianjing who were paying attention to the news all the time.

Everyone subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief after learning that Yang Qi had left the capital.

Finally, this scourge was sent away.

They swore secretly in their hearts that they would never give Yang Qi the chance to return to Beijing in this life.

Yang Qi and his party traveled for half a day.

Settled at a post station thirty miles outside Bianjing City.

Obviously, he could still hurry while the weather was not too late, but Yang Qi stubbornly demanded to rest.

Yang Qi rested overnight in the station.

During that night, many people gathered intermittently in the station.

When Yang Qi set off the next day.

The convoy, which was originally sparsely staffed, suddenly appeared with nearly a hundred guards.

This scared Yang Hong a lot.

When Yang Hong went to find Yang Qi, he was told by Yang Qi that these were his own people.

Yang Qi was lazily lying on his side on the slider, talking to Peng Pai.

"Is the matter in Huanggu Temple handled properly?"

Peng Pai rode his horse and followed Yang Qi, and said, "According to the original plan, my subordinates are going to dig a tunnel to pass through. Halfway through the tunnel, you have reached an agreement with Zhao Pu. So the subordinates only need to send someone to fill in the tunnel again." That's it."

Yang Qi lay on his side, and said lazily: "That's good, we must clean up everything from now on. The people in the Imperial City Department are all dogs, and their noses are good. Don't let them get caught."

Peng Pai nodded and said, "This subordinate understands."

After explaining to Peng Pai and others to proceed cautiously, Yang Qi lay on the slider with a bear skin covering his body, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

In order not to be exposed to the sun, Yang Qi also ordered people to build a sunshade tent on the slider.

Line after line.

Yang Qi, a seriously wounded person, was dragged down.

It took a group of people fifteen days to travel from Bianjing City to Daizhou.

When they arrive in Daizhou.

The spring breeze has blown across the earth, and everything begins to recover.

Green and tender grass leaves and tree buds rushed out one by one.

On the vast expanse of land, the people are sweating and farming.

Once you enter Daizhou.

The atmosphere of farming is even stronger.

All the common people you meet can faintly feel a kind of vitality.

Work very hard.

Looking at the people working in the fields, Yang Qi sighed sincerely, "Kou Zhun is indeed a good minister who governs the country. In just over a month, the people of Daizhou have shown their vitality."

After entering Daizhou, Yang Qi did not rush on his way, but slowed down, watching the changes in various parts of Daizhou with open and unannounced visits along the way.

By the time Yang Qi arrived outside Daizhou City, it was already the end of February.

Approaching Daizhou City, the feeling of being in full swing became more and more obvious.

Many young men rushed to Daizhou City in a hurry.

Yang Qi patted the slider, and Peng Pai tactfully approached him.

"Find someone to ask, what are so many young men doing in Daizhou City?"

Peng Pai got the order and immediately sent someone to investigate the news.

After a while, Peng Pai returned to Yang Qi's side and reported back: "Master, these people are all going to join the army. The Datong Army has started conscription, and now their Datong Army has changed their chief general. They pay enough money and never default, so they all Went to join the army."

Yang Qi carefully observed the passers-by on the road, frowned and said: "I see that among them, many obviously do not meet the qualifications for conscription, and some are too young. Are these people going to join the army?"

Peng Pai was stunned, and said with a smile: "They are also going to try their luck. If they don't succeed, they will go to the city to work. Madam is in the city and has reopened the wine workshop, and the scale is larger than before, so it is necessary to They have a lot of people. They all have little land in their families, so they are handed over to the elderly, wives and children at home. They come to the city to earn some money to supplement their families."

Hearing this, Yang Qi laughed and said: "My lady, she has done a good job in the business. After the wine workshop in Bianjing City was demolished, she sent all the people to the southern country to continue the operation. Now in Daizhou, it continues to open. The wine workshop, she wants to expand the Liao market and make a lot of money from the Liao people."

"The spirits that have only appeared in the last two years, are they produced by your family?" Fa Hai asked, riding his horse forward from the side.

Yang Qi asked with a half-smile: "Do you also want to intervene?"

Old Daoist Fa Hai blushed, and said with a dry smile, "I'm just asking casually."

Yang Qi smiled and remained silent.

Fa Hai's old-fashioned words are a bit self-deprecating.

The fact that spirits are produced by the Yang family is well known in Song Dynasty.

As a sect that has been passed down for thousands of years, Taoism has believers all over the world, how could it not know this kind of news.

As soon as Yang Qi mentioned the strong wine, the old Taoist Fahai couldn't wait to speak out. It would be strange if there was nothing tricky in it.

It's just that Yang Qi is still not sure whether it is the old Taoist Fahai who wants to get involved, or the Taoist school who wants to get involved.

Yang Qi was not willing to cooperate with Fahai without telling the truth.

From time to noon.

Yang Qi and his party finally arrived in front of Daizhou City.

Compared with before Yang Qi left, Daizhou City has almost changed its appearance.

Whether it is the defenders on the top of the city, or the soldiers at the gate of the city who are in charge of checking and collecting taxes, they all appear to be in order.

Moreover, their faces have obvious characteristics of the Zamahe tribe.

This shows that the defenders on the top of the city and the soldiers at the gate of the city are all members of the Zamahe tribe.

It can be seen that the people of the Zamahe tribe have integrated into the city of Daizhou.

Kou Zhun seemed to understand Yang Qi's intention of recruiting the Zamahe tribe, so he almost put all the people of the Zamahe tribe on the table.

The land of the Northwest spans the Three Kingdoms.

There are many ethnic minorities and tribes.

Yang Qi just wanted to use this method to let people see his open-mindedness.

As a result, people from oppressed ethnic minorities and tribes were recruited.

When approaching the city gate.

Yang Qi heard a sound of arguing.

"You and the other soldiers, dare to interrogate the goods of our Duke of Wei, who gave you the courage?"

A steward with two beards on his mouth was scolding the soldiers of the Zamahe tribe with righteous words.

The soldiers of the Zamahe tribe looked very rigid, and their attitude was very blunt. "This is a regulation in the city. All traders who enter the city must pay a certain amount of taxes."

The bearded steward pointed angrily at the people rushing into the city, and shouted: "Why can these untouchables enter the city without paying?"

A soldier of the Zamahe tribe said in a deep voice: "The city entry tax is only for traders. The common people don't have to pay."

The steward with two beards took off a waist badge from his waist, waved it in front of the soldiers of the Zamahe tribe, and shouted: "Look clearly, I am from the mansion of Wei Guogong. Go out and inquire about it." , When did the people in Duke Wei's mansion pay taxes?

Our master, can you offend me?Even Yang Ye has to keep his head down in front of our master.You Yang Ye's dogs are also qualified to stop us? "

"Hehe~"

Yang Qi sneered, patted the slider, and said, "Carry me over."

Yang Qi's slider appeared at the gate of the city. The soldiers of the Zamahe tribe obviously knew him, and they wanted to salute him without saying a word.

Yang Qi waved his hand, indicating that he is welcome.

As soon as Yang Qi appeared, the soldiers of the Zamahe tribe didn't say a word.

Only the steward of Duke Wei's mansion was left clamoring.

Yang Qi didn't bother to argue with such a small person, and immediately ordered: "Take them all."

The scarecrows led by Peng Pai immediately surrounded Yang Qi in the middle to prevent the officials of the Duke of Wei's mansion from violently injuring others.

The soldiers of the Zamahe tribe who were guarding the gate of the southern city rushed forward and quickly captured all the people in the Duke of Wei's mansion.

The steward with two beards yelled loudly, "What are you doing? You want to kill people, you are rebelling. Come here! Help! People from Daizhou City have killed people."

Yang Qi said coldly: "Tell him to shut up."

The soldiers of the Zamahe tribe were not polite, they went up and gave the bearded steward two big mouths, and then stuffed a smelly sweat towel into the steward's mouth.

Yang Qi sat up straight, and said loudly to the crowd: "My name is Yang Yansi, I know the state on behalf of the state, and I have the final say on everything in the state."

Yang Qi looked around, and under the blank eyes of the people, he continued: "Today, I will tell you why we in Daizhou City charge merchants to enter the city. Merchants often use camels and horses for the purpose of profit. , or ox carts and horse-drawn carts, transporting large quantities of goods on the official roads of Daizhou. These heavy-duty ox carts and horse-drawn carts will cause damage to the official roads of Daizhou.

The reason why the city tax is collected is to maintain officialdom.

The official roads in Daizhou were built by the people of Daizhou.

They spent a lot of time building official roads, but they were damaged by businessmen. Shouldn't they make compensation? "

Hearing Yang Qi's words, the common people felt very heart-warming and cheered up, all of them choked up their necks to help.

"It should be paid."

"We built the road ourselves. If they break it, we will pay for it."

"That's right, it's just a city entrance tax, and they don't charge their tolls, which is already considered light."

"The city entry tax is not too expensive, it's just a dozen or so big boys, and it's not enough for them to drink a meal."

"..."

The bearded steward was gagged and kept yelling at Yang Qi, 'Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo' at Yang Qi.

Yang Qi ignored him, but continued: "The city entry tax we collect on behalf of the state city will be used in road construction in the future. No one will be greedy for money. Also, this city entry tax, For all merchants, no matter who they are or what their status is, they are treated equally.

Even if the goods of my Yang family want to enter the city, they have to pay taxes. "

"it is good!"

When the people heard the words, they applauded one by one.

Yang Qi continued: "I just took a look at the gate of the city. There are too many merchants entering and leaving the city, and they tend to be together. This is not good. So I decided. From now on, the east and south gates of Daizhou City will As the gateway into the city. The west gate and north gate are the gateways out of the city. All the gates are divided into two, and half of them are used for the passage of merchants, buses and horses.

The other half is dedicated to the common people going in and out.

Although sometimes everyone will take a detour.

However, in comparison, we don't have to be stuck at the door for a long time because of the congestion.

Moreover, Daizhou City will also build an avenue around the city wall along the moat.

Give you convenience as much as possible. "

The people are very kind-hearted.

Although going around the city would be a bit troublesome for them.

But Yang Qi, a high-ranking figure, personally explained the pros and cons of this matter to them.

They don't feel offended either.
