Chapter 648 The matter of entering the heir
What is the reason for being fickle? It means not to use the Xia Tax silk from She County alone, and then take out a part of the equal-sized silver from She County and send it to the other five counties. In this way, the burden on She County will be lighter, and the five counties do not have to bear the additional silk tax. But in fact, this is completely using equal-sized silver to supplement the silk tax, so for the people of the five counties, this is called fickle.
What is to tear the east wall and repair the west wall? That is to say, we will move the original messy small taxes such as tea tax and ship tax in She County, and then reduce part of the summer tax silk in She County, and use the money collected from the small taxes to offset the reduced part. But in the final analysis, it will eventually reduce part of the taxes to She County.
Liu Gai and Shi Yuanxi stayed at the Wang family for a night to discuss, and came up with another plan to tear down the east and west walls, which was to take out a part of the military silver in the Lijia Prefecture of Huizhou Prefecture to offset the summer tax silk. Now, there is a plan anyway, even if it is just a short man, let alone perfection, it is a helpless compromise. However, no matter what, they finally have something to explain to the superiors. Therefore, even if they find that they can't go back to the capital after the Deshengmen passes, the two stayed at the Wang family for one night, but their mood was much better than before.
After all, no one wants to really delay in Huizhou Prefecture for a month. After returning, they see the mountain of affairs waiting to be dealt with after returning! Even if someone is in charge, it is difficult for them to trust those second-official officials who come from mixed origins.
Of course, since these two people have come, Wang Fulin must not mention it. He suggested that the two of them visit the Xue County Master who is recovering from the county yard of She County and take the opportunity to understand the situation. However, since Liu Gai and Shi Yuanxi were temporarily seconded to Huizhou Prefecture, officials from all six counties have basically seen them. Only Xue Chao, the magistrate of She County, the first county of Huizhou, had never seen them. He heard that Xue Chao was sick at this critical moment. Even the magistrate's duties were the acting of County Magistrate Yu. They had already marked the sign of hiding from hiding things. When they left the Wang family early the next morning, although the back door of the magistrate's magistrate was right in front of them, the two of them had decided for a while but still didn't go.
Anyway, they were transferred by the magistrate of Huizhou Yao Hui. They were of the same rank as Xue Chao, but they were not in line with each other. Even though they were the fellow townsmen of Zhang Siwei, the Minister of Justice Wang Chonggu, they could not make a fuss about this person. After all, what their entourage had found before was Xue Chao was extremely enthusiastic about the dispute over the summer sewage. The county government was surrounded by someone and immediately planned to let others be scapegoats. Now he is still sick. Who would be willing to deal with such an inauthentic parent official? Not only that, they were worried about whom they should use to hold the jar, but they thought of making a good decision when they turned around and made a report.
When the two provocateurs were sent away, Wang Fulin asked Liu Bo, who was alert, to follow him. When he learned that Shi Yuanxi and Liu Gai had entered the city through Deshengmen, he had not gone to the county government to see Xue Chao at all. He knew that with the double guarantees of the Huizhou prefect Yao Huizu and Shi Yuanxi and Liu Gai, the county magistrate Xue Chao should not have been long.
"I just hope that Shexian will not be a guy who wants to make money and make political achievements next time but is unwilling to take responsibility."
Wang Fulin murmured to himself, but when he walked into the hall, he saw that Wang Daoyun was already waiting for him in the middle of the Grand Master's chair. He could only go forward and explain: "Dad, I can't do anything about those two trips before. The two Xu family on Doushan Street and the Cheng family in Huangjiawu are my elders, and they are talking about the matter of Yinzhuang Piao No., so you can't let others see me at home, right?"
Wang Daoyun ignored Wang Fulin's explanation and said bluntly: "Your uncle and I visited the leader of the Qiufeng clan. He took us to visit several families, and finally planned to adopt Qiufeng to a widowed uncle of his clan who had been a widow and had a good character. Her son died before marriage. He wanted a grandson to be a grandson, but he just wanted to study and improve. He didn't have to stay at home. Your uncle and I met the old man, who was very kind and very good. Although your uncle and I have already agreed, you have to take Qiufeng to another trip in person. The only unsatisfactory point is that the old man moved back to his hometown. It was Shuchuan, She County. You can decide when you will take people there."
"It's just Suchuan. I won't go to Wang Shangning's house to find fault. What can he do to me? No matter what, this time it's thanks to my father and uncle."
"You don't need to look like you are afraid of me. Are you afraid of heaven and earth? Are you afraid of me? Even your uncle can't control you, let alone me?" Wang Daoyun glared at his son fiercely. Thinking of his son's experience of Xia Sit Si Juan last night, he knew that Wang Fulin was indeed discussing Xia Sit Si Juan with Liu Gai Shi Yuanxi. He thought about his son's ability, and finally he didn't want to say anything else. He said calmly, "Your mother and I will go back to Songmingshan tomorrow, and you can clean up your own mess by yourself. There is only one thing. We know that Xiaobei's martial arts skills are good, but don't always give your wife!"
Since the two elders were going back to their hometown instead of staring at him here, Wang Fulin certainly agreed to everything. As for the last sentence about Xiaobei, although he agreed, he knew in his heart that just based on his wife's unstable nature than him, he didn't help her to ask for help, so he could only apologize to the two elders in his heart. Next, of course, he came to Qiu Feng.
Even though he mentioned this to Qiu Feng because of Wang Daokun's words before leaving Beijing, he was still worried about what choice this young man who had experienced tortuous things to make. You should know that the core of Confucianism these days is parents who are all bad in the world. It is difficult to ensure that Qiu Feng's brain is rigid when studying, and he has gone back on his mind. He wants to recognize his parents who have sold him and used him to make money for his family. If that is the case, he has nothing to say, and at worst he will not be meddling in other people's business in the future.
After a long silence, Qiu Feng suddenly knelt down. After kowtowed three times, he said word by word: "For so many years, if it weren't for the teacher, I wouldn't know how many big mistakes I made, and whether I could live. Whether this or other things in the future, I would listen to the teacher. However, the teacher has helped me too much. I just hope that after having my grandmother, I will not spend my teacher's money all the time. I can help and study in the Luye Bookstore. Manager Ye also promised to give me the same wages as other helpers. After the next year's exam, I will be confident that I can be promoted to and enhance students. When I become a student in the future, I will be able to supplement my grandmother even more."
"Okay, okay!" Wang Fulin then breathed a sigh of relief. Since he was reborn, he could not reveal his origin to others, so he could only settle for the second best, and spared no effort to find or cultivate people who are similar to his values. Now it seems that this is still effective. He reached out to help the person up, and then said with a smile, "You can choose the future path yourself. Even if you can't get through the Jinshi, if you have a fame and fortune, it will be much easier to do anything. There is not only one way in the world, but the Xin'an Lu Xia is the best example. Go back and clean up, and we will set off to Shuchuan in the past two days."
Wang Daoyun was back. But after all, he and Wu Tianbao went to do this together, so Wu Tianbao rushed over from the bottom of Nanshan Mountain in Yanzhen to lead the way to Shuchuan. As Wang Fulin's uncle, he was an enthusiastic and honest person. Now, he was very happy to see his nephew Wang Fulin becoming more and more promising. However, he knew that what he was going to do today was a serious and serious business, but seeing that Wang Fulin's lineup included Qiu Feng, Jin Bao and Ye Xiaopang, and even Xiaobei were also joining in the fun together. Da Lengtian made a lineup where the whole family went for a stroll, and he was really angry and funny.
However, he just muttered in his heart that when he saw a large group of people laughing, he certainly would not say anything bad.
Because at the end of the Sui Dynasty, Wang Hua, Duke of Yue, occupied six prefectures including Shezhou, and then surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, and was granted the title of Founding Duke of Xuancheng, Shangzhu Kingdom, and the chief of the six prefectures. Wang Hua gave birth to eight sons. These eight sons were born in Shezhou, so the Huizhou Prefecture, also known as Xin'an County, is now known as nine Wangs of the ten surnames. Among them, the Wang family, which is relatively famous in Shezhou, and there are a total of sixteen branches. In the early years, the Wang family, which was born in Wang Shangning, was prominent, but in recent years, it is because of the revival of Wang Daokun, that Songmingshan Wang family has the upper hand.
Although Wang Fulin had been against the Wang family of Shuchuan, he was on the way to Shuchuan this time, and then he learned from Wu Tianbao that there were actually two Wang family nearby. One was the Wang family of Shukou and the other was the Wang family of Shuchuan. Shukou was like these two words, and was often called Shuchuankou. In fact, it was basically in the same village. Coincidentally, the ancestors of these two Wang family did not live here at the beginning, but they did not come from the same place. They all moved. And from the root, they were all divorced.
The Wang family of Sukou originated from Wang You, a native of Huangpi, Yi County, to Shangli Yin family in Shedong. His son Wang Tianlu moved to Shuchuankou. He was the ancestor of the Wang family in Sukou. He had many descendants but was not prominent. Some donated officials and some donated money to be honored. In addition to the gentry, the most common ones were filial sons. The Wang family of Suchuan originated from Wang Yuanlong, who came from Xiuning to Zheng Village in Zheng Village in Shexi. Wang Sen, the great-grandson of Wang Yuanlong, moved to Shuchuan and became the ancestor of the Wang family in Shuchuan. Before Wang Shangning, the clan had small officials such as county magistrates, or the empty titles of court favored him. It was not until Wang Shangning became the third rank that he became a profession.
From this point of view, the Wang family of Shuchuan and the Wang family of Songmingshan are indeed somewhat similar. They are gaining popularity because of one person. They are actually still far from those real prominent families who have been a Jinshi for many lifetimes. But the difference is that the Wang family of Songmingshan was awarded the Jinshi because Wang Fulin passed the Jinshi, and Jinbao was young and took the lead at the case at a young age, so it seemed that there were successors. In contrast, the Wang family of Shuchuan seemed to be a little declining because of Wang Shangning's unemployment for a long time. Originally, during the dispute over Xia Tax and Silk, Wang Shangning led the All-Pair faction to make a big noise, but unexpectedly, the Xiuning in Wuyuan was in chaos, Xue Chao reported illness, and Shuai Jiamo disappeared. Why didn't Wang Shangning know that the situation was gone?
"In other words, the Wang family of Shuchuan should not cause any more trouble this time." Xiaobei raised his eyebrows, but looked at Qiu Feng and said, "However, if Qiu Feng's grandmother wants, she might as well take her to She County, or to live in Songmingshan. She has a companion, and the other is that she doesn't have to live alone here without anyone taking care of her. If one is not good, she will be bullied."
"My brother-in-law and I said this to her at the beginning." Wu Tianbao smiled bitterly, and was helpless. "The Qiu family was originally a small clan in She County. There were few families in the clan. They were mostly forgiving their righteousness and had fewer rituals and integrity. Only such a polite wife with no children could not tolerate her. Someone was trying to seize her property, so she forced her back to her parents' home in anger. If another family was at her age, she would have been at her age, and after decades of chasing for a marquis, it was also a matter of glory to win a marquis. But they didn't have that far-sightedness. Even the clan leader had no efforts to protect this widow before. It was precisely because of this that Qiu Cheng's first was very alert when he heard that we were going to adopt a son for her. When he heard that he was a student of Shuangmu, he proposed that we take Qiufeng to see her."
"After saying that, it turns out that it is because my brother-in-law has a good reputation!" Ye Xiaopang immediately smiled, reached out and pulled Qiu Feng's mount reins, and forced Qiu Feng, who wanted to hear but didn't dare to listen, but said with confidence, "Which family like him is not trying to get it? It's a good old man!"
"What are the cheaper things? At a young age, don't be so charitable." Wang Fulin glared at the little fat man, and saw that Ye Xiaopang stopped talking immediately. He looked back at the way he came and thought that all the roads were crossing mountains and ridges. Fortunately, Wu Tianbao led the way, and he had enough followers, otherwise he would have to let him come directly, and he couldn't help but sigh.
Although Huizhou merchants are rich and famous all over the world, it is not because the geographical conditions of Huizhou Prefecture are too bad. Otherwise, just in terms of taxes, how could Huizhou Prefecture rank at the bottom in the entire Nanzhili? It is only better than a few prefectures such as Fengyang? In Huizhou, you have to cross mountains and ridges everywhere. For example, Songming Mountain is 30 miles west of the county town, while Shuchuan is 30 miles east of the county town. It can be said that it is completely different. The same is that you have to walk on a mountain road. If you didn’t start from the county town today, you can still ride a horse on this mountain road, you might have to sleep in the wild mountains and rivers.
The Qiu Cheng family that Wang Daoyun and Wu Tianbao had visited lived in Shuchuankou, commonly known as Shukou. However, Wang Fulin and his family followed Wu Tianbao all the way, and he found that he thought he was visiting a small village, but it turned out that this was a large village much larger than Songming Mountain. Even compared with the wealthy Xixinan, the village still had a large area of city walls! When he passed through a gate that was completely different from the village gate, he saw the ancient city of Guanye on it, and finally remembered where he had seen the place name Shukou.
That was seen before in Huizhou Prefecture Chronicle, where the ancient county of Guanye during the Tang Dynasty was located.
Wu Tianbao came here last time and was familiar with the road ahead. He specially led everyone around a Cheng clan ancestral hall, pointing to the very grand ancestral hall and laughing: "Shuangmu, do you see it? This is a unique ancestral hall in our Huizhou Prefecture. It is said that it was transformed by the county government in the Tang Dynasty. Qiu Cheng clan was the daughter of the Cheng family, huh?"
I suddenly stopped my uncle's endless introduction, and Wang Fulin looked forward according to his eyes and saw the old woman with a white round bun, straight waist, serious face, and meticulous walking posture. Although it was only the first time I met, he suddenly doubted the judgment of his father and uncle. This old woman was a very rigid person at first glance, and she was really suitable to be Qiu Feng's nominal grandmother? She wouldn't find fault every day, right?
