The legend of the king of crossing

Chapter 50

I came back to my senses and saw that everyone was silent. I raised my wine glass and said: "New year and new atmosphere, the first year of Xianchun has arrived, I will make everyone's life better and better. Everyone, let's raise our glasses together for my Song Dynasty!" Bless the rise."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the rise of the Song Dynasty."

I took the lead and gulped it down.

"Mayor Quan, let me ask you again, how is the public land law implemented here?"

"Returning to the emperor, most of this town is in mountainous areas, and there are few good fields that can be planted. There are only four or five landlords who have excess land that exceeds the provisions of the Public Land Law. Two years ago, the government repurchased it and confiscated it according to the Public Land Law. A full amount of silver was given. Your majesty, forgive me for talking too much, if it weren't for your empress, the public land law would not have been implemented so smoothly."

"What do you mean by that?"

Quan Zhaoxin said with the help of wine: "Your Majesty, many places around Quanfu Town have been tormented by this public land law. There are three main reasons. One is that they don't need to buy back with silver taels, and most of them are sold by handover. The second is to take back the good land. , to leave middle and low-grade land to the landlord, and the third is to resell the reclaimed good land to people close to the government, and even worse, to confiscate the low-grade land as high-grade good land to defraud the maximum benefit. In short, there are various kinds of land here, Make a mess."

"Then what does the mayor of the whole town think of this public land law?"

"Your Majesty, this public land law has advantages and disadvantages. Some people praise it, while others oppose it. Even this old man can't explain it."

Even in later generations, there are many objections to this public land law, and it is indeed not something Quan Zhaoxin can explain.

While talking, Xiao Qi said: "Your Majesty, that Zhang Shijie is already outside the door."

"Proclaim"

Zhang Shijie was in his early forties, with a vicissitudes on his face, and his tall figure was already rickety.Compared with Wen Tianxiang, who is also known as the Three Heroes of the late Song Dynasty, Lu Xiufu seems to be well-versed in the world.

"The grassroots Zhang Shijie sees my emperor, long live, long live, long live, long live."

"Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Zhang Shijie, is the refugee arrangement here your idea?"

"Going back to the emperor was suggested by Caomin to the mayor of the whole town."

"Why do you think so?"

"Your Majesty, the Caomin used to be one of the refugees, and they are well aware of the suffering of the refugees. Most of these refugees went south because of the Mongols. They cared about our dynasty, but the government basically ignored them and left them to fend for themselves. That's why the Caomin Admonish to the mayor, hoping to give them a safe place."

"Zhang Shijie, you have compassion. If everyone flocks to Quanfu Town, what will you do?"

Zhang Shijie thought about it: "Your Majesty, the grassroots didn't think about this."

I looked at Zhang Shijie and suddenly said seriously: "Zhang Shijie, are you convicted?"

Everyone was taken aback, not knowing why I suddenly changed my tone.

Zhang Shijie hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the grassroots don't know."

"In the past two years, Quanfu Town has accepted [-] refugees one after another. None of these people have filed a record with the government. Can you guarantee that there are no Mongolian espionage?"

After hearing this, Quan Zhaoxin knelt down on the ground in a hurry, and said in panic, "Your Majesty, the identities of these people have already been handed over to the Kuaiji government office, but there has been no approval."

Zhang Shijie said: "Your Majesty, these grass-roots people are registered one by one, and they are usually monitored by the maintenance committee, but the grass-roots people don't think so much, they just think that if they can help one person, they will be one person."

"Get up, all the mayors, according to my court calendar, how many days should the Kuaiji government office give you a reply?"

"Return to the emperor, within one month."

"Guaiji government office, I will deal with this matter."

I have long thought about the secret training of the new army at Qiuquan Mountain Villa in Quanfu Town, but I have never found a suitable general. This Shijie seems to be the best candidate prepared by heaven for me.

Although according to historical records, Zhang Shijie was a loyal official at the end of the Song Dynasty, but I have to be very careful. First, Zhang Shijie came from Mongolia after all, and he had served under Jia Sidao.

I stared at Zhang Shijie, and said after a while: "Zhang Shijie."

"The grass people are here."

"I have entrusted you with a task. Concubine Quan intends to open a large-scale breeding farm in Qiuquan Villa. You will recruit [-] young and middle-aged men in surrounding towns for me within a month. The only condition is that you must have your family with you. As for I will let Concubine Quan handle this official filing."

Although Zhang Shijie didn't know why I wanted to start this farm, he didn't ask any more questions, and immediately replied: "Don't worry, your majesty, the grass people will definitely manage it well."

"You don't need to make a big fanfare and act in a low-key manner. If this matter is done, I forgive you for your innocence."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Zhang Shijie, I heard that you committed crimes in the north and fled south. Why?"

After Zhang Shijie heard it, he suddenly stayed there, as if remembering something extremely painful, and after a while he said: "Your Majesty, Cao Min once served in the army under Mongolian General Zhang Rou. The son of a thousand households was in the same private school. One day, because the son of a thousand households humiliated the Han people, the son of the grass-roots refused to accept it. He reasoned with him. , went to seek justice, but returned in vain, but was severely beaten by the Qianhu, and died after returning home. The grass people were furious, sneaked into his house, and killed the son of Qianhu at night, but the Qianhu escaped. Later, with the help of General Zhang Rou, the Caomin escaped and went south."

There are injustices everywhere in the world, from ancient times to the present, from south to north, and it has never ceased.

I looked at Zhang Shijie, a seven-foot man, with tears in my eyes, and said, "Zhang Shijie, I will avenge you, not only you, but also tens of millions of northern Han people, I will seek justice for them. "

Although I said this casually, I did not intend to deceive Zhang Shijie. The Mongols are my mortal enemies. No matter what, I have to eliminate them, otherwise I will die.

It's just that I didn't expect that just because of my words, Zhang Shijie has been completely devoted to me since then.

Hearing what I said, Zhang Shijie felt excited. He didn't expect that I would attach so much importance to him as a commoner. He hurriedly knelt down, sincerely kowtowed three times, and said, "Caomin thanked the emperor. Caomin is willing to be a pawn and follow the emperor." Attack Mongolia in the north and restore our mountains and rivers."

I nodded and said: "I know that you are from a military background. After fighting, there will be opportunities in the future, but for now, you only need to do well what I have told you."

"Grassmen understand."

"I will drive back to Beijing tomorrow, and I will send someone to contact you in the future. If you have anything to do in the near future, go to Quanjue first. You can train these five hundred young and strong according to the standards of soldiers, and there are a few people from Qiuquan Villa. You can also choose from ten servants."

On the north side of West Lake, facing the imperial palace across the lake, is the Jia Mansion where Jia Sidao lived. This mansion was bestowed by Emperor Lizong of Song Dynasty and named Hou Paradise, which means "worry about the world's worries first, and enjoy the world's joy later." "

Liao Yingzhong, a guest of the Jia family, hurried to the lobby of the mansion with a letter in her hand.Jia Sidao and a middle-aged man were drinking and eating while admiring the performance of the dancers and musicians in the hall. Jia's mansion was also full of joy during the New Year.

After Liao Yingzhong entered the room, she went straight to Jia Sidao's side, leaned over and whispered: "Master, Kuaiji Secret Letter."

After Jia Sidao finished reading the letter, he waved his right hand, screened back left and right, handed the letter to the middle-aged man next to him and said, "Brother Junhan, take a look."

The middle-aged man named Junhan took the letter and said in surprise after reading it: "What, His Majesty was assassinated? Fortunately, he is fine, these Mongolian dead soldiers are really daring."

"That's right, Zhao Yu'er is just as bold. He dared to go out with only a hundred guards. If Mongolia had a few more masters, even if Yuan Ji had three heads and six arms, it wouldn't help. By the way, Junhan, with the ability of the head of your Wu family, can you To train such a group of dead soldiers?"

Wu Junhan said hesitantly: "My lord, my younger brother doesn't understand what your lord means."

Jia Sidao handed the letter that Wu Junhan had read to Liao Yingzhong, laughed loudly and said, "Yingzhong, go and check the matter on this letter. Junhan, good Junhan, come and have a drink."

Wu Junhan picked up his wine glass and said, "My lord, please."

Jia Sidao said in one gulp, "Time is so fast, it will be 20 years in a blink of an eye, does Junhan still remember what happened when he was under the command of the commander?"

Wu Junhan said: "Of course I remember, if it wasn't for the adults to save me, how could my younger brother have the life to drink with the adults here?"

"Haha, it's good to remember. Junhan, you have to enjoy yourself to the fullest in life, and enjoy it when it's time to enjoy it. Come on, let's continue singing and dancing."

After the dancers and musicians entered the house, the back garden was full of songs and dances again, very lively.

Jia Sidao looked at Wu Junhan who was in silence, and seemed to be talking to himself: "Why is this Zhao Yu becoming more and more unfamiliar to me?"
