Teng Shuyu and the two youngest friends knelt down on the city wall to the crowd under the city. Before they could stay, they jumped down the city wall less than two feet high, rolled on the ground for a few times, then jumped into the Jing River and waded.

On that day, the gate of Tengcheng was closed, and the people of Yue hunted and killed them according to the information provided by the people who participated in the oath. Except for some people living outside the city and the three people who escaped, all the participants in the oath who did not participate in the oath were killed and several families were killed.

The people of Yue came prepared, and many people were killed before they could resist.

But Teng Shuyu escaped with gunpowder and some friends, killing and injuring more than 20 or 30 Yue people along the way, which made the Yue people nobles in Teng land very uneasy.

He knew that those terrible weapons were from the Mo family. He had only heard that many Yue people today did see with their own eyes and knew the power of this thing, and was shocked.

Originally, I just sent someone to inform King Yue and sent troops to rescue as soon as possible. Thousands of people were enough. Now, I am afraid it is not so easy, so I hurriedly sent people to Langya, saying that the army needed to go.

After slaughtering those insiders in the city, he hurriedly prepared to defend the city, just waiting for him to defend it. At that time, the King of Yue personally led people to come to him would be a great achievement.

However, his methods of defending the city were not high, so he could only send scouts to investigate the situation near Song territory, and he also concentrated the people not allowed them to leave the city easily. The city gates were closed and he was only allowed to go out in the morning to cut down firewood.

The Yue people were also asked to confiscate the food in the city, but the city did not dare to resist. The people were resentful and there were many dissatisfied people. The Yue people killed the dissatisfied people to deter them.

…………

When Teng Shuyu fled to Pei County, it was already mid-March, with a haggard face and torn clothes. He no longer looked like a sageman wearing a sword when he first came to Pei County.

As soon as he arrived, he found the Mo family members to cry, saying that the city was leaked, and the people of Yue hunted and killed him, so he had to escape.

Mozhe sighed and was secretly happy. He knew that among the people in Teng Shuyu's organization, there must be some taxi who valued righteousness and miscarriage.

But the righteousness they value was not the righteousness of the Mohist family. The Mohist family occupied Teng land not at all to restore the country and restore the original system, but to promote the Mohist family's own righteousness.

Those who "respective of righteousness" are worthy of admiration, but their emphasis on righteousness is wrong, because what they think is "righteousness" is to restore the rule of the old nobles of Teng Kingdom. Such people will definitely oppose the Mohist reform in Teng's land in the future.

Shi came forward to appease Teng Shuyu, and then Mo told Shi that the master summoned the committee member to discuss the issue of sending troops.

In fact, the preparations for sending troops were already ready, and the people who followed the war to transport supplies had already begun to mobilize and organize, but there was no reason to start the war.

There are many reasons, such as drills, digging canals, etc., which have been done over the years. The people are organized very well and can organize enough people within a few days.

The three brigades have always been trained for full-time training and can travel to Teng at any time, and the distance between the two places is not far.

All that is missing is propaganda and finally taking a form to get the "public opinion" of the people.

Because the Mo family has not completely turned against the old rules of the old nobles and directly shouted that they would overthrow the old world and establish a new world, so they really dare not do so at this time, so they need to change their publicity methods.

You can get permission from the people, and you will not be shocked and opposed by the princes in the world.

This kind of propaganda fell on the Xuanyi tribe and on Ji Te, who was brought back to "study" by the Mozhe.

It’s not that the Mohist school still values ​​“bloodline”, but if there is no such “bloodline”, it is to declare war with the princes in the world.

The King of Yue can destroy Teng, the princes can fight, the officials can take office, and the superiors can divide Jin, but it is not allowed to happen such things as "selecting the emperor" and "selecting the king".

Therefore, this bloodline is not for the people, but for the princes of the world.

Ji Te, who has a fairly pure bloodline, has been here for more than half a year and has been studying in a rural school.

In the morning, I learn basic words with some children, some of the Mozhes or Youshis, and in the afternoon I usually make sense to him...

After talking every few days, Ji Te also understood what he was - a tablet found by the Mo family, which was used to block the mouths of the princes in the world.

Ji Te felt that he was like a cow, a cow in the cattle farm in Peixian. When people talked about it, they would always talk about whether the bloodline of this cow was the most majestic bull... Except for cattle and horses, people in Peixian do not talk about bloodline.

But he felt that he was a human being, and he felt that he was like a cow and horse in Pei County, because many people would give him some advice behind his back: "This person's grandfather was Tengguo Kaogong"... Just like those who guided him in the cow and horse farm.

He thought about what he said, and found that even if he restored his country, he was really just a tablet.

It was impossible for him to give power at all, but to gather the "public opinion" to select all officials and imperial courts and formulate laws. The position of Teng Hou... is only responsible for etiquette and sacrifice or to sign some resolutions in the end - and he does not have the right to make those resolutions, and in the end he just follows a process to print the seal.

No real power.

If you say that you are the King of Cheng and Ling Yin is the Duke of Zhou? It seems that it is still wrong, but when you hear it carefully, you will know that it is not the case at all.

If we follow such rules, there is no way to compete for power such as the monarchy and the Senate.

He knew that he had no foundation. After Teng Shuyu fled back to Pei County in a panic, he also knew that his bloodline had no appeal and that he could not compete for power without the ability to fight for power.

According to the principle of this, the original public land and office land of Teng State must have belonged to him, the future Teng Hou.

But Mozhe told him that this was not taken for granted. Even according to the "Literature of Zhou", the monarch of a small country had a lot of salary, and it was nothing more than the land of Beiqing.

Since he wanted to borrow this tablet, those people would have to block the mouths of some people. We can't say that we would invite him to go over and then as he said, "he relies on his own strength and the ruler and the people will work together to fight against the Mo family."

Nowadays, since the Mo family does not want to completely arouse the dissatisfaction of the princes, they have to find enough excuses from the "Rites" that the princes seem to comply with.

The King's System says: If a hundred acres of farmland is divided into 100 acres, the farmer above eats nine people, followed by eight people, followed by seven people, followed by six people, and lower farmers below eat five people. For common people who are officials, their salary is the difference. The lower princes regard the farmer above, and the salary is enough to replace their farming. The sergeant is more important than the lower scholar, the upper scholar is more important than the lower scholar, and the lower officials is more important than the upper scholar. The four great officials are more important than the king, and the ten nobles are more important than the nobles. The second country is more important than the nobles are more important than the king, and the ten nobles are more important than the nobles.

This kind of nine-digit learning seems a bit troublesome to calculate, but fortunately, I was advocating that I was unparalleled in the world for a long time, so I helped to calculate and quickly came up with the answer.

Since Teng Kingdom is a small country, according to this calculation, the "luck" field that Teng Hou should have should be ten times the salary of the doctor, that is, twenty wells.

Normally, twenty wells are 18,000 acres, but because the Mohist school reformed to strip away the public land system and the system of serfs bound land, each well was only counted as a hundred acres of the original public land, which is the theoretically two thousand acres of the land owned by Teng Hou.

And because this acre is a weekly acre, a manpower acre, not a cattle plow, the number of acres that is converted into a normal Mohist measure is only one-third, which is 600 acres.

So after finishing the calculation, Shi happily told Ji Te, saying that the six hundred acres of land were the land of Teng Hou, and after the country was restored, it would be cut out from the public fields occupied by the Yue people.

However, the public land labor system will be abolished and the well fields will be abolished. This is from the Liteng Kingdom, so no one can help you cultivate these 600 acres of land.

As for you, you either hire the "farmers" you did before to farm and run it yourself.

Or, you can rent out these 600 acres of land and let others rent and plant your land to operate, and you will collect the rent.

No matter what, after taking down the land of Teng, you can only divide 600 acres of public fields for you, and the rest will be distributed to the people.

Of course, the ownership of the palace that has been built still belongs to him, Teng Hou. As for whether he has money to repair it, it has nothing to do with others.

If the Inquiry Office can pass the law to repair the palace for you, that's fine, but Ji Te knew it was very slim at the moment of hearing it.

This can be considered as giving enough face to the princes in the world, but it is not easy to really let this Marquis Teng support himself.

Shi also made it clear that the Mohist school's righteousness must be used so that the Mohist school will send troops to help.

Ji Texin said that I didn't want to restore the country. It was you who took the initiative, but this matter was better than me helping others, so of course I agreed.

Besides, it's already like this, what should I do if I don't agree? I can't go back to Teng. If you ask Teng Shuyu to promote me, how can the Yue people tolerate me? I fled to Lu and Chu, but they don't recognize me as a subordinate. Besides, I don't even have a horse or a carriage, so how can I look like a nobleman?

In the end, if I don’t agree, I can only study here and then work peacefully in the Mohist workshop...

Although it was just a tablet, even putting a piece of wood on it said that the wood had the bloodline of the wrong uncle embroidery, it seemed that it did not affect the operation of Teng Kingdom at all.

Shi also told Ji Te that many farmers who fled from Teng in Pei County, and some of them joined the army in the righteous army, so the chief was famous. Therefore, he hoped that Ji Te would read an oath in public as Gongzite, the heir of Teng State, to make a request for military service.

The content of the oath was nothing more than his recognition of the Mohist morality that benefited the people of the world and decided to change it in Teng after the restoration of the country.

The content of the change includes breaking the well fields and opening up the roads, changing the tax system, changing the labor system, allowing private acres, raising the virtuous and selecting virtuous, gathering public opinion as the best, changing laws and regulations, clear rewards and punishments, etc.

How to change it specifically? Taking Pei County as a model is nothing more than an additional monarch with a mascot of 600 acres of land.

In other words, the first thing he, the marquis, had to do after restoring the country was to announce reforms. The second thing was to hire Mohists to carry out reforms for the prime minister, while Mohists would concentrate the public opinion of the people, elect people to discuss politics, legislate and reform, and then he could rest.

Therefore, when the Mohist family determined that if it didn't rain, they would go to the army on March 23, they immediately found Ji Te and re-reported the things they had agreed with him before.

Ji Te smiled and said, "I was once a prince and later a farmer. Now I want to restore the country to a marquis. I have seen all over the world, and there are exiled young masters, or maybe I have been a slave, but I have never seen a marquis who once was a farmer. Is this the world unrivaled at this time?"

Shi was very satisfied with Ji Te's attitude and replied with a smile: "This is all for Teng Kingdom. Don't you know the morality of the Mo family..."

Before Shi could speak An, Ji Te almost subconsciously recited principles such as advocating virtuous people and benefiting the world to show that he fully understood, knew very well, and would never forget them.
