Chapter 1085 Aftermath
"Check households and households, you will know how to investigate households every day." Liu Sui, the son of Liu Wei, the son-in-law of the minister, couldn't help but complain.
But the county officials only showed bitterness on their faces, but they had no intention of being able to be at all under their hands.
First, the pressure from the superiors was too great, and there were many high-ranking officials supporting him, such as Prime Minister Wang Dao and Liu Sui's father Liu Wei.
The second thing is, of course, because Liu Sui's son-in-law actually has no real power and can't control it.
These days, the emperor's son-in-law must be the son-in-law, but the son-in-law may not be the emperor's son-in-law, and some of them have not even married the clan daughter.
However, Liu Sui married a royal family woman, but it was useless. He didn't even wait for a serious and well-official official.
He is currently mainly engaged in the Viagra industry.
There are still many wilderness scenes there, and there are many manors, which look like development bases, changing the landform and environment bit by bit.
The Liu family manor was mostly the people of Pengcheng who followed the south, but such a few people were definitely not enough, so they used their influence to attract many refugees from the south as patrons.
These were the people who were inspecting the court, intending to strip them from the manor, and make them separate as households, and teach them to farm.
From the standpoint of the court and the gentry, this is actually a "supportive and forbearing the country."
If you don’t give land or keep the household registration, the court can only continue to rely on the wealthy family to offer sacrifices. It's not impossible, but it's definitely inconvenient. Once the court is roughly incompatible with the gentry, it's basically impossible to do anything, such as the so-called Northern Expedition.
The vigorous soil inspection households have entered their second year, and the overall situation is pretty good. There have been chaos, but they have been suppressed and the coverage is relatively wide. Basically, Yangzhou and Jiangzhou are involved.
However, compared to Shao Xun's Dutian in the north, the land and inspection households in the Eastern Jin Dynasty were only a drizzle, and they were not involved in it in depth. The rich families symbolically handed over some land and population, and most of them were still retained. The court also pinched their noses and recognized them because they had limited abilities. Not to mention, the number one wealthy family like the Wang family of Langya still retains a huge manor and division. What else can you say?
But then again, the Wang family in Langya is a big business, and it is not a big deal to hand over some land and population, but the Liu family in Pengcheng is not well-managed and handed over hundreds of farmers at once, which is really painful.
This is why Liu Sui cursed.
When he met Zhuge Heng, who came to Liu Sui, he advised, "Liu Wan'an has already inspected the household, why not?"
Liu Wan'an is also called Liu Sui, so he is the nephew of Liu Bao, the minister of Shizhong, and is from Gaoping.
The two Liu Sui were in Jianye and were often compared. The result was that Liu Suiyuan in Pengcheng was inferior to Liu Sui in Gaoping.
When Liu Sui heard Zhuge Heng's words, he was stunned and cursed, "You have not yet started a family and started a career, so what do you know!"
After saying that, he sighed and said, "Forget it, forgot, don't make things difficult for you to wait, just do it like this. Three hundred households, no matter how many there are. I don't care about the matter of giving land. When will you pick up people, go to Pilingzhuang."
The county officials thanked them very much.
The officials in Huaide County are not easy to be a good official, and they don’t even have real soil, so they squeezed into a small house to work. But most of the registered households in the county are powerful and famous, which is really not easy to offend.
Besides, the population obtained from the household inspection has nothing to do with Huaide County, and it must have been diverted to the Qiao County and Qiao County where the land was cut off. This job is simply thankless.
Liu Sui was not interested in staying any longer, so he pulled Zhuge Heng away.
The guests drove the ox cart and followed behind, and the two walked in front. "Junwen, do you really want to go to the north?" After walking to a relatively secluded place, Liu Sui asked, and after speaking, he said seriously, "Actually, you have done a bad job in this matter, and you shouldn't tell me. If I have a bad intention and report it directly, your family will not suffer a major disaster, but the governor of Jingzhou will not do it." Zhuge Heng shook his head and said, "I will always say goodbye to you." "You!" Liu Sui was a little moved, and then asked in a humble manner, "What about the daughter of Deng Bodao?"
"I haven't seen it before."
"Then how different are you from the play?" Liu Sui said, "I don't think Deng Bodao looks very good, how beautiful can his daughter be? In Luoyang City, Wang Yifu was beautiful and handsome. At that time, the Censor Yu Zimei was also good. He heard that his son Yu Liang was also very handsome. Tsk, Empress Yu of Liang should be very beautiful. Compared to these people, Deng Bodao's appearance is really unsuccessful, and you are suffering from Junwen."
Zhuge Heng was a little dissatisfied and said, "Why do you say that to me like this?"
Liu Sui laughed, hugged Zhuge Heng's shoulder, walked forward as if no one was around, and asked, "I heard that Deng Bodao lives in seclusion in Pingyang, how do you go there?"
"Do you know Wang Hui and Wang Youren?" Zhuge Heng asked.
"Who is this?" Liu Suizhen didn't know.
"The second son of Wang Cheng, the former governor of Jingzhou, Wang Ping," Zhuge Heng said, "He is willing to help."
Liu Sui laughed at the moment of hearing this and said, "Although Wang and Zhuge are both Langya clans, Wang Youren's help may not be due to the past relationship, and may be the orders of Wang Yifu and even Shao Xun."
After saying that, he sighed a little: "If Wang Hui was in Jianye, he would be very famous. Now in the north, I don't know it. In just a few years, the gentry in the north and south are so strange. We are still good, and we can still establish some relationship from our father and grandfather. Even if we are in the next generation and the next generation, we may be strangers and do not know each other."
Zhuge Heng nodded. "Those old slaves are cruel enough. They are all old friends in the north, but they regard them as enemies. It's outrageous!" Liu Sui said again: "You can live a better life when they are gone."
Zhuge Heng was dumbfounded. He felt that Liu Sui had scolded many people, including their father.
In addition, he was a little puzzled: "If Liang soldiers go south, the manor may not be able to be kept, right?"
"Yes," Liu Sui sighed: "At that time, I'm afraid I can only ask relatives to help make a comeback. At the very least, I can manage the industry with them. It used to be one family, but now it is divided into two families, and it can become one family in the future. We came early, and there are some money and food on hand, but there are few people. They can take the northern village tourists south. I dare not say that if there are too many, I can still afford to raise one thousand families for two years. By the third year, the wasteland will be almost done, and even if there is no harvest, I can barely hold on to it. In fact, we all came through this way at the beginning, and it is even more difficult, and no one can help me."
Zhuge Heng couldn't find any rebuttal words.
First, there is no problem with others' principles, and second, it is because he may be even more excessive than Liu Sui, because he returned to the north to get married. He first stayed in his wife's house. After a period of stability, he then made friends with other people through the relationship between Zhuge of Langya according to the situation. Some people in the family were still serving as officials for the Liang State, but they could not harm his father, so he really did not plan to become an official. After all, his father asked him to return to the north just because he was worried that his family would be destroyed.
At the same time, Zhuge Heng also clearly felt the change in the trend.
The old man won't talk about it for now, they are relatively loyal to the Sima family. For example, his father went to do things when he was a late emperor, and he was trusted by his confidant. Now he wanted to give up, and he would be criticized.
But the attitude of the middle-aged official in his thirties and forties outside the old man is quite interesting.
Liu Sui just turned thirty this year, and he was very brave to speak and dared to express his attitude publicly. Moreover, compared with the past few years, he has become more and more daring and more presumptuous, but no one can deal with him. Maybe because he is the prince-in-law, or maybe because of other reasons.
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
As far as Zhuge Heng felt, the battle in Jingzhou was a watershed.
In March, he participated in two chats. Everyone's attitude towards Tao Kan was not regretful, but ridiculed...
What kind of attitude is this? Do you laugh at him for being unable to do it, or do you laugh at him for being overestimated?
Zhuge Heng did not dare to think deeply, but he knew that the situation was different. After Qingtan and the congregation members entered the officialdom or slowly climbed to a high position, he would not dare to think about what would happen to the Jin Dynasty.
As long as the navy is now in the upper hand, Jiangnan will be stable for a while. If the navy will not gain the upper hand one day, the surrender may not be a fantasy, but a reality that is about to happen.
Zhuge Heng thought for a long time, and didn't even listen carefully to what Liu Sui said later, and just perfunctorily.
When Liu Sui saw that he was in a bad mood, he stopped talking and parted at the Daokou and said he would meet again next time.
Zhuge Heng then got on the ox cart. next time? He is going to Wuchang and Pingyang, which next time?
After returning home with great worries, Zhuge Heng suddenly realized that his sister was back.
"Sister." He immediately bowed.
Zhuge Wenbiao's usual cold temperament was that when he saw his younger brother, a smile appeared on his face and said, "Junwen, you are about to get married, don't be so shy."
Zhuge Wenbiao was holding his younger sister Wenxiong in his hand.
Wenxiong was still a child. When he saw Zhuge Heng, he stretched out his hand and shouted to take her to play.
Everyone laughed.
Zhuge Wenbiao looked at his happy family and felt warm in his heart. What is it that she can suffer by herself? There are always many things worth cherishing in her life. She is not interested in most things, and only her family can make her feel at ease.
But when Zhuge Wenbiao's expression dimmed again when he thought about leaving his family soon.
When my sister Zhuge Wenbao saw it, she reached out to carry Wenxiong over and said softly, "Sister, go and talk more with your mother."
Zhuge Wenbiao nodded, looked at her second sister with relief, and said, "In a few years, you will get married. Are you looking for a husband in Wuchang?"
Zhuge Wenbao blushed and didn't say anything.
"There is nothing worth mentioning in Wu." Zhuge Heng couldn't help but say, "My second sister still has to find a good family in Jianye." Zhuge Wenbiao sighed, how could this be possible?
She can guess what her father thinks: if you can, you will defend, and if you can't defend, you won't resist stubbornly.
There were people like this before, but now there are more and more people, especially when Xiangyang and Jiangling fell, and when Jingzhou could only use Yunmengze and Dajiang as the screen, the number of people like this suddenly surged.
To be fair, they didn't want to rebel or surrender to the enemy, they just felt that it was meaningless to resist desperately. Many times, just give me a reason to convince myself, and I will give up halfway.
This is the impact of the battle in Jingzhou, not only on the battlefield, but also on the hearts of the people.
At present, those Wu people who are more determined to resist are the ones who are more determined to do so.
