The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms

This woman was very tall, almost seven feet three inches. It was a cold day. She didn't wear deep clothes. She wore a Luo Ru, a shawl on her neck, and a green skirt. figure. Xun Zhen has never seen such a tall woman since she traveled, so she couldn't help but glance at her more, looking from behind, she saw her high bun like clouds, Chu waist/hip, plump and graceful, and asked: "This is Whose daughter is there too?"

Gao Su looked at her intently, although she only saw the back, she said with certainty, "The village girl who is more than seven feet long and likes a green skirt is the only one Fei's housewife."

"The Fei family? Which Fei family?"

"Don't you know? It's Fei Zhongxing."

"Fei Zhongxing?" Xun Zhen thought about it for a while, and remembered that Fei Zhongxing was a native of Feiting in his native town. Although he had hundreds of acres of fertile land at home, he could only be regarded as one of them. A small landlord has an older brother named Fei Chang, who is a guest of the Zhang family in Zhai Yang. With the help of the authority of his master family, he is now an official in the county, and he was recently promoted to postal supervisor.

- There are several tycoons with the surname Zhang in Yangzhai, but there is only one person who can make the guests of his family take the position of the right post in the county, and that is Zhang Rang's family. Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, etc. are also permanent attendants in the middle, and they have won the trust of the emperor. The father and brother, the children, the marriage clan, and the guests are all in the state and prefecture.

Xun Zhen was a little strange and said: "I heard the name of Fei Zhongxing when I was in Fanyang. His eldest brother is not a guest of Zhang's family, but is he a county official now? With such a wealth, how can his wife and wife come here? In this small rural market, you are traveling alone, and you don’t have any servants and servants?”

Gao Su curled his lips and said, "That Fei Zhongxing is incompetent, although his brother is the postal governor of the county, he usually takes care of him in many ways, but the mud can't support the wall, so far the drilling camp has only a few hundred acres of land, and he is very natural. She is so stingy that she is reluctant to buy even a servant, and she only holds a book of scriptures and reads it endlessly all day long. . . . Yoyo only looked around at her neck, slender waist, fat/hip and long skirt, sighing and looking regretful.

Xun Zhen said in his heart: "'I just read the scriptures all day long'? This Fei Zhongxing's brother is a guest of eunuchs and is notorious in the county. ..., looking at Gao Su's slanderous appearance, he must have coveted this woman for a long time. No wonder he can recognize who it is from his back. It is also thanks to Fei Zhongxing that he has an eldest brother who is a guest of the Zhang family. He was forcibly robbed him.... Although this Gao Su is a rogue and has good eyesight, Ayan's wife is very beautiful, and I don't know what this woman looks like?" Just thinking about it, the woman seemed to feel their gaze. , put his hand on the skirt, and turned his head.

It was deep winter, and the north wind was cold. This woman's face was flushed red from the cold, her eyebrows were curvaceous and her lips were dripping. She was also a beauty, but she was slightly inferior to Cheng's wife. The wife is attractive, because she is older and has familiar eyes.

Xun Zhen followed her eyebrows and stopped for a while on her cherry lips. She was shocked and quickly retracted her gaze. The woman first saw Gao Su, then Xun Zhen, and turned her gaze on Xu Zhong, Cheng Yan, and Wen Pin who followed her, and finally fell back to Xun Zhen's face, just in time to catch up with General Xun Zhen. When her eyes hurriedly retracted from her cherry lips.

Xun Zhen was worried about her anger, but when she saw her pursed lips and smiled, this smile made her lips more beautiful.

Women in the Han and Han Dynasties regarded small lips as beautiful, but most of the "little lips" were drawn. When applying grease powder, the lips were first covered in white, and then rouge was used to paint the lips, so as to be as bright as cherry red. This woman is not, but her lips are naturally born, cherry mouth, and dazzling. She seemed to be aware of her own strengths, and when she laughed, she pouted her small mouth intentionally or unintentionally.

Xun Zhen's heart pounded.

-Since he crossed over, although he has always "cleaned himself", except for the beautiful maid in the family, he has never met other women, but it is not because of his pure heart and few desires. He did not leave Gaoyangli to read the scriptures and learn swordsmanship; the other two, after he became a pavilion chief not long ago, he stayed in the ministry for many months, working diligently, and did not have the opportunity to contact other women.

The Master said, "I have never seen a person who is as fond of virtue as he is lustful." Everyone has a **** for lust. At present, he is no exception. Moreover, this woman not only has beautiful lips, but is more than seven feet long. It is the only thing he has seen since he traveled, and it seems that he has seen and heard in a previous life. Fortunately, he had already made a habit of "self-denial", and quickly adjusted his emotions. Not only knew who this woman was, but also got a smile from her. He couldn't say it without saying hello. He bowed his hands and asked, "In person. But what about the Fei family?"

The woman Yingying bowed and said with a small smile, "I've seen the son, the cheap concubine Chi."

Her voice was not outstanding, it was just ordinary, but during this prayer, the bun was swayed, the shawl around the neck, the beads in the ears, and the ribbons under the skirt all swayed, confusing people's eyes, and a faint fragrance into the nose, Xun Zhen Feeling dry mouth again. - On closer inspection, the material of her dress is not very good, it is very ordinary, and the shawl, step, ear tie, and ribbon are only low-quality. Besides these things, there is no ring on the wrist and bracelet, but it is better than the clever matching. , Well-dressed, with a graceful figure and a charming smile on her lips, it makes people look at her, but she is so ugly, she just feels tempted.

Gao Su salivated and said with a smile, "Achi, are you here to buy rouge? Just tell me what you're looking for! It's Longxi's rouge, or Luhua Baiying powder, I'll buy it for you too!" From Yanzhi Mountain in Longxi, Luhua Baiying Powder was used by Zhao Feiyan, the favorite concubine of Emperor Chengdi in the past, and is extremely valuable.

Maid Chi glanced at Gao Su, ignored him, twisted the ribbon around her waist, took two steps forward, and got closer to Xun Zhen, and when she looked at Xun Zhen's face again, she could only feel that she was handsome and brave. She lives in the countryside all the year round, and what she sees is all the vulgar people from the countryside, and she rarely sees people from the county, let alone a warrior like Xun Zhen, she didn't feel curious and asked: "The concubine is presumptuous, it seems that I have never seen the son before. , may I ask who is the boss?"

Cheng Yan leaned over Xun Zhen's shoulder and replied, "This is Lord Xun, whose family is the Xun clan in Yingyin. He is newly appointed as a native of the township. He just came to office today."

Although this place is on the edge of the market, there is a lot of people in the distance, and there are a group of teenagers in the nearby hotel. Xun Zhen restrained her thoughts and did not think about the approaching fragrance, and secretly said, "This woman is not afraid of life." He said, "I have heard for a long time that the honored husband's high morality is famous in the village. , I must visit Xiangxian, and I will come to visit in the coming day. Farewell."

Gao Su was reluctant to part, and before leaving, she stared fiercely at Chi maid's embroidered skirt with a soft waist, and walked a long way, still regretting: "Fei Zhongxing is stupid and mean, what a pity for such a beautiful woman! What a pity such a beautiful woman !" Turning her head to look back, she said happily, "Hey! Zhenzhi, she's looking at me!" Xun Zhen heard this and turned her face to look back. The maidservant Chi stood at a distance, and when she saw him turn back, she swept her temples with slender hands, and smiled sweetly.

Gao Su thought she was smiling at him, so she was overjoyed and danced: "Zhenzhi, Zhenzhi, did you see that? She's smiling at me! Haha, haha." He repeatedly ordered the second and third graders, "Go, go. , go! Buy that rouge rice noodle stand and give it all to the beauty."

Xun Zhen was startled, and hurriedly grabbed him, stopped the second and third year of high school, and persuaded: "Maid Chi is Fei's wife, brother Fei Zhongxing is a guest of Zhang's family, you must not mess around!" - Zhang Rang, **** and **** , Beetle harm the country, although being spurned by scholars, but the power is monstrous. Even though Xun Zhen also hated him, it didn't mean that he wanted eggs to touch rocks and unnecessarily anger his guests.

Gao Su wasn't someone who didn't know the importance. Just now, he just got lustful and lost his head. After listening to Xun Zhen's advice, he just sighed and said, "Such beauties should keep the back room, the clothes are fine and the food is fine. She has nothing to do during the day, she only focuses on applying grease and powder, singing and dancing with silk strings, which is pleasing to the ears and eyes. How can she be so stingy that she comes to the town and city alone in the cold winter of December to buy those vulgar and vulgar powders? Fan, how can you be worthy of such a beautiful woman?... Fei Zhongxing is really stingy and hateful!"

Xun Zhen smiled and said, "Zixiu, you are really a 'passionate' person!" She thought, "'Keep the back room, splendid clothes and food essence'. , and immediately reacted, "Bah, bah! What's wrong with me today? I'm always thinking about it. Is it because I've been bored in the countryside for a long time, so I can't control myself? ... It seems that I really have to pick Tang Er. already."

He was only in his twenties before he crossed over. When he was "eating the marrow to know the taste", after the crossing, he grew up. Although Tang Er quenched his thirst, his body was just crowned last year. It is the youthful and prosperous age of "knowing lust, Mu Shaoai". Although he has tried his best to restrain his own desires and suppress his emotional thoughts, this physical impulse is not something that can be suppressed if it can be suppressed.

He thought: "Da Yu manages the water, it's better to block it. Instead of getting up every morning and having a headache and worrying about the 'One Pillar Defying the Sky', it's better to let it go without affecting the 'big plan'. . . . I'm sick." Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance back, and saw that the maid Chi had turned back to the rouge booth and was carefully picking and choosing.

…

After leaving the township, the noise was left behind, and everyone got back on their horses. The two village officials led the way and went to the village temple first. Xun Zhen came to office today, and the first important thing was to handle the handover. Xie Wu has sealed all the papers and book collections, just waiting for him to check.

When he took office as the head of the pavilion, Fanyang Pavilion didn't have many slips, only two boxes were packed. Now that he has been in office, there are definitely many more boxes to receive. After all, the head of the pavilion only holds ten miles of land, and there is an order to govern a township.

Compared with the head of the pavilion, you rank not only has a high official rank and can carry a seal, but also has far greater power than the head of the pavilion.

The duty of the pavilion chief lies in public security, and the name "Qianfu" was originally a nickname for a farmer, but later it became an official name. The origin of the name is like this, and its responsibility lies in civil affairs. Compared with later generations, the former is similar to the director of the police station. , the latter is similar to the mayor.

Among the townships, there was a township leader of Gangqiang, who dared not speak.

Youzhi and Qiangfu govern no more than a single township, a hundred stones or a fight for food, but they have great power. "The master knows the good and evil of the people, and he will serve in order, know the rich and poor of the people, and how much he will give, and equalize the poor." , and "job hearing". In addition to public security, all matters such as taxation by the state, determination of household registration, levy of corvée, fixed households, litigation, education, and persuasion for farming and mulberry farming, no matter how small or small, are all handled by one person.

Among all the things he manages, the most important thing is to the interests of ordinary villagers, and the ones with the heaviest power are naturally taxation and corvée.

The taxation of the empire mainly includes land rent, calculation, money, calculation, and more.

Land rent is land tax.

Although compared with the previous Han Dynasty, the land rent in this dynasty was not high. Since Emperor Guangwu, there has been a "thirty tax and one", but this tax must be paid as long as there is land. Those with more land pay more, and those with less land pay less. The basis is the amount of land, and the amount of land each family has, the measurement and evaluation, and the compilation of the land register are the responsibility of the rank and the husband.

Calculation of Fu, mouth money is a poll tax.

The calculation is aimed at adults between the age of 15 and 56. "One hundred and twenty people are counted as one", and each person is charged 120 yuan every year. - This one hundred and twenty qian is collected from the households of Qimin, and is "doubled" for merchants and slaves, that is, 240 qian per person, and if there is an unmarried woman between fifteen and thirty years old" Double count".

The mouth money is aimed at minors between the ages of seven and fourteen, "people twenty-three", and each person is twenty-three dollars per year.

The basis for the collection of these two poll taxes is the annual national census in August, that is, the "case ratio". This work is also in charge of Yuchi and Joao.

Zi is a property tax.

Zi means capital. The scope of the plan includes money, land, houses, carriages and horses, livestock and poultry, grain, slaves, and treasures, all of which are owned by the family, and are all-encompassing, and sometimes even clothes, shoes, pots, and other things are included. Generally speaking, if there is Zi million money and one count, that is, there is Zi 10,000, and tax payment is 120 yuan. This "counterman" is also one of the duties of Youzhi and Qiangfu.

more endowed.

Geng Fu is nominally "substitute service money", but in fact it is also a fixed item. "In ancient times, everyone in the world should be guarding the frontier for three days, also known as Geng". All those who are in the military service period should perform military service and guard the frontier for three days each year. "More Fu" instead, 300 yuan per person per year. This also belongs to the rank and Qianfu responsible.

After calculating these items, not to mention the land rent, but only the fu, the mouth money, the Zisuan, and the more fu, it is an extremely heavy pressure for every ordinary person. Assuming a family of five, there are two adult men, one adult woman, one child over seven years old, and one child under seven years old, then a total of 360 yuan should be paid each year, and 23 yuan should be paid annually. money. Suppose it is a family of Chinese people, with 100,000 Zi, and an annual payment of 1,200 "Zi Shou". Two adult men who are serving in the military are given six hundred more money each year. A total of 2,183 coins. If there are one or two slaves in the family, you have to pay another four or five hundred dollars.

And these money is only "collected according to the law". When the court has something to do, it is often "collected from time to time, outside the law". UUkanshu www.uukanshu.com and the officials in charge of collecting taxes are mostly corrupt and lawless people. , "To make an edict, to make a fuss and to collect money", "to be greedy, to plunder the people", there are things in all counties and countries. - The Son of Heaven has clearly stated the price in the West Garden, so is it not allowed for his ministers to "privately collect"? Besides, if you don't "privately restrain", how can you *? If it is not "privately collected", where will the * money be earned back?

In addition, there are corvée, which is also one of the rank and rose husband's own duties.

All kinds of taxation and corvée, year after year, never stop, are unbearable for the Qianshou, but for Youzhi and Qiangfu, who are in charge of these matters, it shows the importance of their powers.

Although he has a "poor salary" and is a "servant official", he can directly determine the fate of the households within his jurisdiction. In addition, although the rank is low, there is also a chance to be promoted to the county and county, and have the opportunity to go to the sky in one step after being "reviewed". For example, Zhang Chang, a famous minister of the former Han Dynasty, and Zheng Xuan, a great scholar of the current dynasty, all served as the husband of the village. And because of this, although it is a low-ranking position, it has always been scrambled by the wealthy people of the hometown.

That is to say, Xun Zhen was born in the Xun clan, with a strong background and a great skill in killing thieves, so that he could take over as a foreigner as a native of the township. If you change someone, it will be extremely difficult.

…

When he came to the village temple, Xun Zhen showed the appointment letter of the county governor, and ordered Wen Ping, Xu Zhong, Cheng Yan, etc. to help the village officials to move the boxes and books one by one to the front, and carefully check that they were correct. After the handover, I wanted to take a look at the scale and layout of the cottage, but Gao Su couldn't bear to wait any longer, so he grabbed him and left, shouting, "This township can't run again, it's not too late to see tomorrow! Hurry up, go I drink at home."

Gao Su dragged Xun Zhen out of the door, glanced at Wen Pin, saw him leading the horse to keep up, he was relieved, winked at Gao 2 and 3, winked and said, "Go back and set up the banquet first, I'll wait. Come later."

The second and third graders of high school understood and rushed to the promise.
