Yangzhou City, Lotus Garden.
Except for Zhen Yingjia, who is middle-aged and elderly, the heads of the other seven families are all white-haired old people.
These eight people were sitting in Song Yan's room with solemn expressions, watching Song Yan happily waving his hair at the desk
They are clearly trying to force the emperor into the palace, but in front of the old and strong Song Yan, the momentum of the eight people is like ice and snow, which can only turn into spring water and flow away when it encounters the sun.
After writing for more than half an hour, Song Yan finally stopped writing.
However, on the paper, there are only nine characters left.
After taking the handkerchief from Song Hua's hand and cleaning his hands, Song Yan looked at everyone in the room with a calm expression and said: "Shuhe and Dongming, come and taste it. This calligraphy is my pride in recent years. This is my work. Bo Qi, you are a great calligrapher, so I would like to correct you."
Hearing this, the eight people looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes, but they had to suppress the anxiety in their hearts and stood up to read Song Yan's handwriting.
When everyone came to the desk, they saw nine vigorous and crude characters written on the paper on the desk:
??If it is poor, it will change, if it changes, it will be general, and if it is general, it will last.
"Mr. Songchan"
Chu Dongming and others saw what Song Yan meant and couldn't help but change their expressions.
Song Yan didn't wait for them to speak, he waved his hand to stop, and said: "In addition to being the patriarchs of various families in the south of the Yangtze River, you are also among the most eminent scholars in the world. There are many truths that I don't need to elaborate on, but I didn't expect that you are still looking for I¡¯m very disappointed when you come to your door.¡±
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked ashamed.
Fang Zhe and Uncle Fang and Gongshou smiled bitterly and said: "Shame on you! What Duke Songchan taught us is that we alas, after all, we cannot achieve the state of unity of knowledge and action that Duke Songchan can achieve."
They all understand the truth. Which one of them has not read the classics and history, and which one of them is not familiar with thousands of years of history?
Don¡¯t they know that the disaster of land annexation is the cause of the destruction of the country?
?????????????????????????????????????????????????:
But so what?
Because they all have a huge family behind them
¡°For an ordinary family, it takes three generations of savings to support an ordinary scholar.
??And for a family like theirs where everyone in the family is studying, how big is the annual expenditure gap?
"Besides, they are different from ordinary scholars. The children of the thirteen families in Jiangnan have to not only take exams, but also become famous.
Even if you fail in the imperial examination, you still want to become a famous scholar in the south of the Yangtze River.
After becoming a famous scholar, his status is no worse than that of a middle-ranking scholar.
"However, if you want to become famous, it requires a huge price
These are all things that they, as clan leaders, need to consider carefully.
"If the imperial court implements new laws, measures acres of land, divides the land into acres, and strictly enforces the quota of tax exemption for scholars according to the law, it will be an unbearable disaster for them.
Because according to the law, a scholar's land is only eighty acres, a person who has not yet been promoted to official position is free of land of 1,200 acres, and a scholar who has not been promoted to official position is free of land of 3,350 acres.
It sounds like a lot, but in Jiangnan, a place called a scientific disaster, it is easy to be a scholar, but it is like thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge.
"There is not one person in a hundred who can win the election in a clan."
"It is rare for only two or three people to become Jinshi in ten years."
"Compared with the hundreds of thousands of acres of farmland owned by various families in the south of the Yangtze River, the share of these preferential and exempted fields is too far apart.
Once the new law is implemented, they will go bankrupt just by paying land taxes.
How can they unite knowledge and action?
After an embarrassing silence, Sun Boqi, the head of the Sun family, said in a deep voice: "It is the national policy set by the Holy Ancestor Emperor to cultivate scholars with good looks. Today, the emperor has treated you too harshly and plundered too much. How can you not violate the destiny and the laws of your ancestors? ? If the imperial court persecutes you too much, Jiangnan will inevitably be uneasy."
Hearing this, Song Yan smiled lightly, looked at Sun Boqi and said, "I didn't expect Boqi to have such courage. How can I know which way will work if I don't try it?"
Sun Boqi: ""
Fang Zhe almost looked at the bad old man with a mocking look, threatening Song Yan. How unwise?
¡°Furthermore, can the forces of your Sun family really be able to rebel?
Sun Boqi was so embarrassed by Fang Zhe that he became angry and said angrily: "The Sun family alone can't make a big storm, but if we and other eight families unite, who in the world dares to look down upon? Who dares to insult? I'm afraid that people will not be united." , so that the century-old Chinese people will be defeated by the younger generations one by one and become a laughing stock."
It¡¯s another burstThese insights are barely acceptable. I am old and have limited energy, so I will not discuss this with you today. When Cong'er comes here tomorrow afternoon, you can talk to him separately. "
Hearing this, Uncle Fang and others looked at each other, and suddenly felt that they seemed to have fallen into a pit between the master and the disciple
¡¡
On Slender West Lake.
Daiyu, who was also freshly dressed, returned to the main hall. Looking at Ye Qing, who was stunningly dressed in palace makeup, her eyes narrowed after being startled. She stepped forward and said with a smile: "Sister, she is so beautiful!"
Ye Qing's lips curved into a smile. When he saw Daiyu's eyes falling on her head, he took off the eight-treasure phoenix hairpin on her head, and inserted it into Daiyu's bun. He looked at it carefully and said with a smile: "My sister looks better wearing it, but I always feel uncomfortable wearing it on my head."
Seeing Daiyu panicking about taking it off and returning it to her, Ye Qing laughed and shouted: "Don't take it! How can there be any reason to take back something that is given away? I can't even wear a lot of such jewelry in a year if I have several large boxes at home." Come on, what are you doing there for nothing?"
Hearing this, Daiyu said softly: "Sister, I have given you gifts before." As she said that, she gently shook the jade bracelet on her wrist.
Ye Qing smiled and said: "That's a meeting ceremony, this is a parting ceremony, it's just right."
Daiyu said "Ah" and said in a panic: "Sister is leaving?"
Ye Qing laughed and said: "Not now, tomorrow morning. I was ordered to go south to pray for the Queen Mother, so I can't stay in one place all the time." Seeing Daiyu's eyes red, she smiled and stretched out her hand to pull her to him and said: " She is such a kind and good girl. After all, she is more like a daughter than a younger sister. It is hard for me to feel sad even when we say goodbye. No wonder I am annoying your third brother."
Seeing Daiyu looking over with dissatisfaction, Jia Cong smiled and said: "Young Master Qing, you are being modest. She is rich enough for her daughter's family, and her daughter's family has the unruly ability to frame others for frame-ups. She has reached the pinnacle of proficiency. Who dares to say that she is not a daughter?" Home? I could die unjustly."
After Daiyu smiled, she quickly changed her face and became angry.
Ye Qing, on the other hand, laughed heartily and showed no signs of annoyance at all. He just waved his wide sleeves and brushed Jia Cong's face as punishment.
The long dress with hibiscus gold, wide sleeves and hanging flower palace brocade was worn by her in a majestic and magnificent way.
After cleaning up Jia Cong, Ye Qing stretched out his hand to straighten the phoenix hairpin on Daiyu's bun, and said with a smile: "It's rare to have a good sister with a pure mind who makes people love you. If Sister Lin is bullied in the future, just Send someone to me, and I will decide for you.¡±
When Qingwen and others not far away heard this, they all looked at each other, always feeling that the painting style was wrong.
It was Daiyu¡¯s girl Zicuckoo who was overjoyed!
The old lady is already old, and I don¡¯t know how many more years she can hold on, but this Phoenix¡¯s thighs can still be held for a lifetime!
