After rebirth, I became the stupid son of the Hou family

The next day, Jiang Chen went to say goodbye to Fan Yao. When Fan Yao heard that he was going back, there was an expression of reluctance in his eyes.

Fan Yao took his hand and said:

"Jiang Chen, are you really leaving?"

Jiang Chen nodded at him, he patted the back of Fan Yao's hand and said:

"I've been out for so long, and the day for the release of the results is coming soon. I have to go back and see if there are any names on the gold list. But I can't stay with you anymore. Fortunately, General Chen Ming will never leave you. It's your luck to be waiting for you. You can recover well here, I told grandpa, he will take care of your safety."

Fan Yao held Jiang Chen's hand tightly and said:

"Let's go. Chen Ming is here to take care of me, so you don't have to worry. You will definitely get the top spot in this imperial examination. When you pass the exam, you must write me a letter and ask me to do it for you. happy happy."

Jiang Chen held Fan Yao's hand and tightened it again. He looked at Fan Yao reluctantly and said:

"If I really make it to the gold medal list, I will tell you the good news as soon as possible. When your body recovers, you can go to the capital to find me again. The two of us will always be the best brothers."

Fan Yao smiled bitterly at him and said:

"I hope I have a chance to go to the capital to find you again. I really miss the days and nights with you. I don't know if we will have the chance to meet again in the future, but you are always my favorite Okay brother."

Jiang Chen saw his eyes sparkling with tears, clapped his hands hard and said:

"What are you talking about? Why don't we have a chance to meet? When the time comes, if you don't look for me, I will come here to look for you. Don't think too much, just take good care of your injuries. Everything will be fine."

After Jiang Chen comforted Fan Yao, he stood up again, pulled Chen Ming aside and said to him:

"General Chen, after I leave, Fan Yao will be entirely dependent on you. You must always remind him to think twice before doing anything. Don't act recklessly and risk your life, you know."

Chen Ming nodded vigorously and said:

"Don't worry, Master Jiang. I know what to do, and I will protect Fan Yao. Thank you for your help to our Master. I believe we will meet again in the future."

Jiang Chen, the prince and his party were sent to the official road by Dingyuan Hou and Jiang Xiaotian.

The prince turned around and said to them:

"You two princes, please stay. You have been stationed at the border all year round and guarded the people of the Xuanwu Dynasty. You have done a great job with your hard work. I will definitely convey everything here to the emperor when I go back, and I also ask the two princes to take care of themselves."

Jiang Rong cupped his hands towards the prince and said:

"Thank you, Prince. I wish you a safe journey."

Everyone came over to say goodbye to them one by one. When they arrived at Jiang Chen, Jiang Xiaotian told him:

"Jiang Chen, take good care of your mother when you go back. When I go back, I will go see her."

Jiang Chen just nodded to his father and said nothing.

At this time, Grandpa Jiang Rong came to him and said:

"Jiang Chen, remember to visit grandpa when the time comes. Don't forget about me, an old man, you know."

Jiang Chen felt sour in his heart after hearing his grandfather's words.With a smile on his face, he comforted him and said:

"Grandpa, how could I forget you? Don't worry, your grandson will definitely come back to see you."

After finishing speaking, he bowed his hands to his grandfather and father, then turned his horse's head and chased everyone.

Along the way, several people were very happy together, talking and laughing from time to time.

Only King Wei always felt like an outsider and couldn't get a word in.

Since he was in the military camp these two days, Jiang Chen was busy getting along with his grandfather, but Liu Yiyi was left out in the cold.

Seeing that Yiyi was not in a high mood, he deliberately slowed down and waited for her.

Liu Yiyi looked at Jiang Chen and finally thought of herself. She also urged him to come up, and the two of them walked side by side.

Jiang Chen asked her:

"Yiyi, during this time, you have been so frightened. Do you regret coming out with us?"

Liu Yiyi turned to look at her and said:

"What regrets do I have, if I hadn't come out with you this time. I thought that only my life experience was unsatisfactory. When I followed you, I saw Ah Fu's family and the people who were bullied. They are the ones who live in this world. The lowest level, the poor who are exploited and oppressed by others. In their world, what needs to be considered is not emotions and grievances, but how to feed their families. This is the biggest thing. When will those people at the bottom, their families Every family has their own land, and they no longer have to worry about having nothing to eat after paying the rent. Only then can these people live and work in peace and contentment."

What Jiang Chen didn't expect was that Liu Yiyi's mind was filled with the survival of those poor people, and she didn't think about herself at all.

He looked at her with approval and said:

"You are right. Those who live at the bottom do not even have the most basic living conditions. Most of them live a precarious life. Since the people cannot live and work in peace and contentment, how can the court be stable. Land is the basis for people's survival. , but they have no ability to own it. On the contrary, those high-ranking officials and powerful people do not cultivate crops, but they own a large amount of land. If the people want to cultivate, they have to rent it from them. Such a social structure can only be achieved by a small number of people. People who own land are getting richer, while tenant farmers who do not own land are getting poorer. This system that widens the gap between the rich and the poor is the most fundamental cause of social unrest."

Liu Yiyi didn't expect Jiang Chen to analyze this matter so thoroughly, and she looked at him more and more differently.

Liu Huaian listened to the heated discussion between the two of them, and he joined in and said:

"Jiang Chen, this system has been passed down like this for thousands of years. Even if we sympathize with the people living at the bottom, what will be the result? Have you ever seen anyone in the past who can Change this unreasonable system. Even in the past, there have been reformers who wanted to break this gap between rich and poor. But in the end they still couldn't break through the barriers of these big landowners. In the end, didn't they end in failure? "

At this time, the prince also slowed down and listened to their conversation. He was also very interested and said:

"You are all right. To make the country rich and the people strong is what every court wants to do. But no dynasty can do this. The formation of this social structure has long been ingrained. If you want to shake those hands, Here, it is simply impossible for people to truly control the land. Look at the ministers in the court, who all hold a large amount of land. If you try to move the land in their hands, they will not unite to fight you. That’s strange. Those innovators Mr. Liu mentioned have not succeeded so far. It is mostly because of these obstacles that the New Deal cannot be promoted."

King Wei saw that everyone was talking to each other, and the discussion was very intense. After listening, he also joined in and said:

"If the New Deal cannot be implemented, it means that such policies are not applicable at all. High, low, high and low are all determined by fate, and no one can change them."
