People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 325 Ascension to the Hall for Discussion

Inside the prefectural office of Wuzhou, there were many figures, but few voices.

From time to time, in various official buildings, people looked through the windows at the figures kneeling in the courtyard, with tense and complicated expressions.

Bing Cao joined the army Yan Tao.

The tall, bearded soldier Cao Canjun Yan Tao knelt straight on the cold stone slab, his face ashen.

A sigh came from nowhere.

Last night, the new Bie Jia cleaned the watchtower guards, and now he knows everything he should know in one night.

Among the six Cao Caos in Wuzhou who participated in the army, Fa Cao, Hu Cao, Cang Cao, and Gong Cao were all involved, and even Tang Jun was instructed to intervene, but there was no soldier Cao joined Yan Tao.

Especially this time, Wanglouwei, who was targeted this time, was originally under Bingcao's command.

First the city gate guards, then the watchtower guards, and they just avoided Yan Tao, the soldier who was in charge of these things.

Thinking about the details a little bit, you can't help but feel chills in your heart.

Not to mention Yan Tao himself.

When the state government office opened this morning, he had already knelt here to apologize.

As a soldier Cao Canjun, if he still doesn't know anything after one night, then he really doesn't have to do it as a soldier Cao Canjun.

At this time, the sound of wheels suddenly sounded outside the door, and everyone by the window shrank their heads back immediately.

Then, amidst the sound of footsteps, Li Xuan, who was wearing a scarlet official robe, and Zhang Yi, who was wearing a dark green official robe, walked in together from outside.

Zhang Yi was half a step behind, with a respectful expression.

Seeing this scene, all the officials in the official house showed extremely shocked expressions on their faces.

They were all veterans, and they could tell at a glance whether Zhang Yi was genuinely respectful or not.

In an instant, the horror in the eyes of many officials became respectful and obedient.

Now at this time, it is clear at a glance who is the master of everything in this official house.

……

Li Xuan ignored Yan Tao and walked past him, let alone making him stand up.

Zhang Yi, on the other hand, glanced at the anxious Yan Tao, shook his head slightly, and then followed Li Xuan again towards the state government hall.

The State Yamen Datang is solemn and solemn.

Under the plaque hanging high in the mirror, Cao Canjun Du Bixing, Prosecutor Cao, Han Jiang Hu, Cao Canjun Li Yuanyi, Gong Cao Canjun Wang Qin, Cao Canjun Feng Hua, and Wuzhou Instructor Tang Jun lined up. .

Behind them, the captain of the city gate, the governor of the capital, the prisoner, the doctor, the householder, the sacrificial priest, the farmer, the salter, the ironer, the Gu, and the gunner, all the officials, big and small, The secretary, the book, the recorder, and the arrester all stood respectfully behind their respective officers.

Li Xuan passed through the crowd, and finally sat directly on the governor's hall.

Immediately, the official seal with the four-square button pattern appeared in Li Xuan's hands, and he directly put it into the official seal of the governor.

Li Xuan looked solemnly, looked at everyone with a straight body, patted lightly, and shouted in a low voice: "Ascension hall, discussion!"

Standing at the head of the crowd, Zhang Yi, who joined the army as a recorder, immediately led the crowd, and clapped his hands and sang: "Don't drive me, I have seen you!"

"Everyone, please stand up!" Li Xuanxuan raised his hand.

Everyone present immediately stood up straight, and looked at Li Xuan solemnly.

"Yesterday, the officer gave an order, today..." Li Xuan looked at Hu Cao Canjun Han Jiang, and shouted in a low voice: "Han Canjun!"

Han Jiang immediately came out with a solemn face, and cupped his hands to Li Xuan: "The next official, Cao Shenjun, Han Jiang, don't drive if you see him!"

"Yeah!" Li Xuan nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Yesterday, the official ordered you to prepare all the white books and yellow books for all the fields in Wuzhou. Have you prepared them properly?"

"It's ready." Han Jiang glanced behind him.

Several household officials standing on one side immediately stepped forward, put the white book and yellow book in their arms on Li Xuan's desk, and piled them up high.

Li Xuan stretched out his hand to look through it, then closed the account book, finally looked at Han Jiang, and said in a deep voice: "The taxation is fundamental in the world. After three days, all counties and townships in Wuzhou will have calculations. Hu Cao needs to send someone Go to all counties and townships, strictly investigate the matter of hiding and expanding fields at random, and make sure there is no mistake!"

"The next officer obeys the order!" Han Jiang cupped his hands again.

"Tax collection, tax transportation, and tax storage are the most important things." Li Xuan glanced over Shi Cao Canjun and Cangcao Canjun, and then said in a deep voice: "The matter of taxation is closely related to everyone, Shi Cao Repair bridges, ship rails, housekeepers prepare household warehouses, lawmen strictly investigate illegal deception, soldiers protect the transportation of taxes and food, and meritorious officials are responsible for recording meritorious service. All officials need to fully cooperate, do you understand?"

"Your official understands, and I would like to obey the order of the other party." Many Wuzhou officials present immediately bowed, not daring to neglect in the slightest.

Li Xuan's eyes fell on Han Jiang again, and said with deep eyes: "This time, all taxes are collected according to the tax book. You can understand that there will be no extra cents and no less."

Han Jiang frowned slightly, and immediately understood that Li Xuan did not plan to compete with the Wuzhou family on the field.

Everyone present also understood this point, and everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief at the same time.

Han Jiang sighed deeply in his heart. He knew that the current situation was like this. If it were not like this, the aristocratic family and the Tianyin Sect would attack from inside and outside. Under the chaos in Wuzhou, the whole Wuzhou might not be able to collect a cent of taxes.

"Your Majesty, I would like to obey the order of Farewell." Han Jiang lowered his head solemnly.

His words directly dispelled many Wuzhou officials present, as well as the dark cloud of checking the fields over the heads of the Wuzhou aristocratic families behind them.

It is hard to know whether the policy of checking the acres of land that Wang Fanglin, the governor, has been promoting has been eased by Li Xuan. Whether he can regain it in the future.

People like Cangcao Cangjun Li Yuanyi and Gongcao Canjun Wang Qin could not help but sink slightly.

Even though the situation was like this, all of them felt extremely uncomfortable.

Li Xuan nodded, glanced at the different expressions on the faces of different people in the hall, and then looked at everyone with a smile that was not a smile: "I have seen tax collection in Dongyang, and I have seen some greedy people with my own eyes. The officials of the government used the evil method of kicking dendrobium to exploit the people. Therefore, the king once implemented the prohibition order in Dongyang, Yiwu, Pujiang, Pan'an, and Yongkang, prohibiting the tax and grain from falling on the ground at will when collecting taxes. .”

As soon as Li Xuan said this, the faces of many Wuzhou officials present could not help but change slightly.

They also have a share of the greedy food obtained by the evil method of kicking and kicking dendrobium.

Now Li Xuan is tantamount to cutting flesh on them.

The ease just now disappeared without a trace in an instant.

All of a sudden, everyone subconsciously looked at their respective officers in the courtroom.

However, no matter whether Liu Cao joined the army, or Zhang Yi joined the army as a recorder, Tang Jun and others did not say a word.

Some people couldn't help but want to say a few words. At this moment, Li Xuan suddenly raised his head and looked towards the front yard with cold eyes.

Everyone couldn't help but turned their heads, and saw the soldier Cao Canjun Yantao kneeling in the courtyard at a glance, and his face couldn't help but change.

"If you drop one catty with a stick, you can drop ten catties with a stick. If you drop a hundred catties, you can use a stick of one hundred." Li Xuan read each word, while gritting her teeth, and said, "I know how much you are waiting for." There are laws of obedience and transgression, but most of my officials are punishments, you may as well try it, the world in Wuzhou is changeable, and it may not be certain who will be dispatched to the front of the army on a certain day."

Just two words before the army, some guys who were dazzled by anger immediately came back to their senses.

This year is different from the past, this year the rebellion of the Tianyin Sect is already a certainty, in this case, is there any point in doing so?

What's more, even if the taxes and food are collected this year, can they be shipped back?
Once in the place, what to do, what to do, even under the strict orders of the King of Nanchang, there may not be no way to operate.

Some people have already begun to take chances in their hearts.

"Tang Jiaoyu!" Li Xuan turned her head and looked at Tang Jun, who was beside her. Tang Jun immediately took a step forward and cupped his hands: "Your Majesty is here."

"Let you organize students from the state to go deep into the counties and townships during the summer harvest, and pay close attention to the time of tax collection. If someone plays tricks and reports back immediately, I would like to see if you can live without this layer of skin on your body." A few days." When Li Xuan said a word, everyone present had different expressions.

Some were frightened by Li Xuan's words, while others rolled their eyes quietly.

Although the students of the state school are smart, they may not be able to see the methods of some officials.

"Everyone!" As soon as Li Xuan opened his mouth, he drew everyone's attention back: "If it's just a matter of kicking and kicking, at most it's just a crime of greed and exploitation. I hate it.

Please keep in mind that in wartime, this official has the right to kill first and then act later.

Speaking of which, I really want to find one or two early birds to stand up! "

"I don't dare to be an official!" Many Wuzhou officials present, no matter if they were sincere or false, immediately surrendered in panic at this moment.

They don't drive, they are the most merciless in their actions.

Yesterday's city gate guards, watchtower guards, I don't know how many people were purged, and I don't know how many people were killed.

Many people still remember the blood in the crevices of the stone when they walked under the watchtower today.

There are some things that their Nanchang County King Biejia is really capable of.

"Since I have made it clear to you all, then when the time comes, don't blame me for being cruel." Li Xuan took out an official document from his sleeve and handed it directly to Hu Cao Canjun Han Jiang: "Han Joining the army, this official document has the official seals of the king and the governor of the king, and you issue an announcement based on this to inform the people of the whole city and the people of the nine counties of Wuzhou, there must be no mistakes!"

"The next officer obeys the order." Han Jiang immediately stepped forward, glanced at the big seal of the governor on it, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.

This matter has the approval of the governor Wang Fanglin, and they are more at ease.

What's more, in these current events, although some corrupt officials suffer, it is more common people who benefit.

The more low-level officials present couldn't help but wailed in their hearts at this moment.

This official document has the official seal of the governor and the official, and it cannot be changed.

Even if people from the imperial court came, it would be difficult to overthrow it institutionally.

"The matter of Hucao, this is the case for the time being. Han Canjun, remember that the white books and yellow books are mostly compared with the lower-level counties and counties, so there should be no mistakes." Li Xuan urged again.

Han Jiang immediately cupped his hands: "Your official understands."

Li Xuan nodded, turned around and looked at Li Yuanyi, Cang Cao Canjun, and shouted in a low voice, "Li Canjun."

"The next official is here." Li Yuanyi immediately stood up and cupped his hands.

"Where is the Cangcao account book?"

"Yes!" Li Yuanyi immediately put a thick account book on Li Xuan's desk.

After Li Xuan glanced around for a while, she said, "In the afternoon, my officer and Zhang Canjun will go with you to inspect the warehouses. Is it okay?"

"Please don't check at any time." Li Yuan cupped his hands, then retreated respectfully,
Li Xuan turned his gaze to Feng Hua, the soldier Cao Canjun who was standing aside: "Feng Canjun!"

"Go back and leave, all the rivers and bridges in Wuzhou, the drawings of rising water and flowing water are here." Feng Hua immediately stepped forward and placed the huge scroll on Li Xuan's desk.

Li Xuan nodded in satisfaction, and said: "When I come back from the warehouse, you can come to me again and give me a detailed explanation."

"Follow the order!" Feng Hua bowed his hands and retreated.

Li Xuan looked at everyone present, and said in a deep voice: "Wuzhou may inevitably face a war in the future, and the river course is the most important thing, especially the Dushui Division, who patrols the river course on weekdays, and must not be neglected. If there is any accident, the river course will be blocked immediately. The disaster will not spread to the city."

"I will obey the order." Huan Han, the director of the Dushui Department, stood up, bowed his hands to Li Xuan, and then retreated respectfully.

Li Xuan nodded, looked at the others, and said: "As for you, you should observe more and prepare more on weekdays, so that you can be prepared in case of danger."

"Your Majesty would like to follow BIE Jia's instruction." Everyone present immediately bowed their hands together.

They may have their own plans for other things, but in this matter, no one dares to mess around.
