In May of the 24th year of Guan, at the 19th year of the reign, Uncle Li issued an edict to appoint Fang Junfang Yiai of the Tang Dynasty as the magistrate of Weinan County in the capital of Chang'an, the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty. In addition, Huazhou and Tongzhou were all divided into Weinan's territory. Huazhou had cut nearly two counties, and Tongzhou also cut one and a half counties. Even Chang'an also divided the 3,000 households and a large amount of land near the border of Weinan to Weinan's rule. Weinan instantly jumped from a Zhongxian with a population of only 4,000 households to the Shangxian County with a population of more than 23,000 households. Not to mention a county, even a Xiazhou of the Tang Dynasty did not have as many as Weinan's population. The division method of the Tang Dynasty was divided according to population and land. Below 20,000 households were lower-class states, and more than 20,000 households were medium-class states. In other words, the population and land of a Weinan county had reached the scale of a medium-class state.

However, the unexpected quietness in the court was not even a censor who stood up and quarreled. All of this was due to Uncle Li's careful arrangements over the past month, because three Censors, two state governors, and a minister were removed from his official position by Uncle Li because he opposed the reform of the tax law. It was rare to see Uncle Li's ruthless moves, and thus, the officials in the court also saw Uncle Li's determination.

Uncle Li also issued an edict that, in the case of Weinan County, the censor and the observer have the right to impeach, but have no right to interfere in any government affairs in Weinan County. One of the Weinan County should be appointed to government affairs, recruit talents and officials, and everything can be submitted directly to the Secretariat and directly to the emperor. Instead, no one will give others the right to intervene in the process of tax laws and government reform in Weinan County. In addition, Uncle Li gave me the position of a regular doctor and gave it to gold, silver, silk and silk.

Sitting on the Twin Towers at home, the left head was Cui Renshi, Wang Fangyi, Dai Zhide, Yuwen Jie, and on the right, Wang Fangyi, Li Yifu, Di Renjie, and Lou Shide. Each of them was a desk table. The table was full of delicious wine and delicacies. I held the glass and smiled and invited you to drink.

There were eight people in total, and Master Cui Ren and Dai Zhide were recommended to me by His Majesty. Dai Zhide was the adopted son of Uncle Li's favorite minister in the early Zhenguan period. He was careful and had a lot of talent in his heart. Ling was only twenty years old and could be regarded as a young hero. Although Master Cui Ren had been promoted to the position of prime minister, he was not very old, at least thirty-seven years old.

As for Wang Fangyi, both Li Yi Mansions were recommended to me by Li Zhi. Wang Fangyi didn’t need to talk about him. Li Yi Mansion is quite talented. He was nearly thirty years old. He was a very elegant figure when he was young and strong. He could smile three times on his face, which could easily attract others’ favor. However, this brother’s original master knew very well, and he had talent, but he still did a lot of evil things.

Yuwen Jie and Lou Shide were talented men recommended by this young master's friends, well. This statement is really difficult to understand. However, Yuwen Jie and Lou Shide are indeed talented people. Lou Shide had already passed the exam this year and was originally going to Yangzhou to serve as a county magistrate, but he was recommended to me by Pei Xingjian, so he naturally kept him.

"Everyone, Fang, I believe everyone knows that he is an honest person. He will say anything he has. He will never hide things in his heart. The day before yesterday, Your Majesty had ordered me to be the magistrate of Weinan County. Today, I would like to gather together to listen to it. You think that the opinions of this new tax law, after all, Your Majesty asked me to go to Weinan, and this is what Fang invited you here. First, let everyone meet first and meet. Second, I will give you the "Tax Law of the Tang Dynasty" to you. Anyone who has their own ideas can say it."

"Sir, the official thinks that our positions are not divided and our responsibilities are not clear. We don't understand the situation in Weinan at all. It is really difficult to adapt to the local conditions." Teacher Cui Ren was very persistent in taking on the burden. However, everyone present expressed their opinions. Most of them had similar meanings to Teacher Cui Ren, so I would not be too entangled with this issue.

"Since you all say that, it's okay, it's about one month before I will take over as the magistrate of Weinan County. During this period, I hope that all adults will go to the Weinan territory to take a look, and by the way, you will hit the ground, no matter whether it is a crooked or hearsay, copy all the things you think are necessary to record. Half a month later, we will meet in the Weinan County Government Office. You will hand over all the information you have collected from Weinan to me." I sat in the main seat with a big golden sword, picked up the grape wine and took a sip.

"Sir Fang, the lower official is a little confused, but since the lord has an order, no one dares to refuse to obey. These things are what we should do." Li

He bowed to me and said with a smile. I nodded with a smile: "Master Li's heart, perhaps because my official said it was too general. I want you to mention your population, land, specialties, terrain, living standards of the people in various regions of Weinan County, including the local people's attitude towards the current tax system of our Tang Dynasty, and the local traffic conditions... All of this will be mentioned in your report."

The more I said this, the expressions of the people sitting on the table looked a little ugly, and Di Renjie's expression was not very good. However, the boy was biting his cheeks and it was obvious that he wanted to do it with all his might. Lou Shide next to him still had a light expression, slowly savoring the delicacies on the table, while Cui Ren and Wang Fangyi looked thoughtful. As for Li Yifu, he was still smiling, but his expression was a little bitter.

Dai Zhide seemed very excited, as if he wanted to go to work now. Yuwenjie, this guy's smile was a bit similar to Pei Xingjian, and it was worthy of being introduced by Pei Xingjian. According to Pei Xingjian, this guy has profound gambling skills and ranks among the top in the Tang Dynasty playboy world, and has been highly trusted by friends in the gambling world. In addition, because he is also of the same kind as Pei Xingjian, everyone has become friends, and is deeply despised by the Yuwen family.

However, with Pei Xingjian's strong recommendation and after a deep understanding, I realized that Yuwen Jie was not addicted to gambling, but this was just a way for him to make friends. However, he had a very amazing judgment on financial management, so I stayed there.

After the banquet, these people finally left my house one after another. Even Di Renjie said goodbye to me. He wanted to go to the academy to prepare a salute so that he would rush to Weinan to implement the orders given by his master.

"Well, okay, remember, it's not necessary for every citizen to ask, but be careful not to just ask the opinions of the lowest-level people, and don't forget that scholars, farmers, industry and commerce are all one, do you understand?" I patted Di Renjie's shoulder and told me warmly. Di Renjie nodded vigorously: "Students must live up to their master's entrustion, but when will the master want to go to Weinan?"

"Of course, half a month later, there is still a lot of things to do in Chang'an. Many of the things here are also related to the success or failure of the reform in Weinan County." I took a deep breath, looked at the brilliant Milky Way in the sky and said slowly.

And I arrived at the Jinzuoyuan early the next morning. The half-joking title of a group of officials from the Jinzuoyuan made me angry and funny. After everyone gathered, I cleared my throat: "Okay, stop making trouble. I am here now, but I have a serious matter. From today on, the government affairs of the Jinzuoyuan will be handed over to Qiu Danmo, while Cai Nan is responsible for internal affairs, and Li Xiaode is responsible for external affairs. At least you two brothers, I have important matters to you. From today on, you will send people to Weinan and ask me about these affairs. Remember, be sure to be precise and detailed. In addition, Brother Jiaming, you will send two capable personnel to keep an eye on one of them."

I stretched out my hand and handed the small note in my hand to Liu Jiaming. "Isn't this your subordinate? Why..." Liu Jiaming couldn't help but be stunned.

"I naturally know what you said. I want you to keep an eye on him. In addition, investigate everything about him, including whether he has accepted bribes and who he has had too close contact with. Remember, I will write it down in detail at that time. As for the other people, I will also give some people a look. You can make your own decisions." I said coldly.

Liu Jiaming naturally understood what I meant and took the order: "Sir, please rest assured, no matter what it is, we can't escape our eyes when we enter the Zuoyuan." And the other people tacitly did not ask Liu Jiaming's name in his hand. Some things they shouldn't know and should let them know. I will naturally say that although the Tang Dynasty's Jin Zuoyuan almost became a place where my room was covered with one hand, as long as I squealed, many things would be quietly carried out under my eyes.
