Jiangmen Tianjiao: Reborn with funny ancestors

Cui Jiangnan was invited into the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion and presented with congratulatory gifts.

Chu Tianjiao did not continue the topic just now and forced the Cui family to donate money.

When the Cui brothers left the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion, Chu Tianjiao kindly sent Cui Jiangnan outside the mansion, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

On the way home, Cui Mao couldn't help but ask Cui Jiangnan: "Ms. Chu seems very kind. When I asked about replenishing my fields, she actually promised to send someone to re-measure the fields soon.

He also said that what should be made up for would definitely be made up for.

So easy to talk to?Why is it completely different from the rumors? "

Cui Jiangnan was also puzzled.

He originally thought that Chu Tianjiao would force the Cui family to donate money and food, but Chu Tianjiao never mentioned it, and only begged the Cui family to respect her face during her tenure, handle official business, and not to embarrass her.

Is it because Chu Tianjiao has a good relationship with the Cui family?

Cui Jiangnan breathed a sigh of relief when he thought that Chu Tianjiao was Cui Shang's savior and that Cui GUI, as the Minister of War, was also on good terms with Li Yanghou.

"Ms. Chu is a military commander and may act more decisively, but in essence, she is also a child of a noble family.

The Chu family has good relations with the eldest brother and Agui again. In terms of seniority, she is still our junior, so she should respect us. "

However, Cui Jiangnan still did not completely relax his vigilance and sent people to pay close attention to the issuance of Chu Tianjiao's decree.

Who knows, everything will be calm.

On the contrary, the people of Yuzhou were shocked when they found out that Chu Tianjiao had transported the supplies of the Northwest Army to Yuzhou to help the victims.

You must know that the relief food during the drought in Yuzhou was the military food of the Northwest Army intercepted by the imperial court.

Now, with great difficulty, the people and wealthy households in Ganzhou have donated money to purchase food for the Northwest Army.

Because the disaster in Yuzhou was serious, Master Chu also transported the general grain to Yuzhou and lent it to the victims of the disaster in Yuzhou.

"God, if foreign enemies invade the territory at this time, the northwest army is short of food and unable to fight back, and the Xirong traitors come in, then we in Yuzhou will be punished by God!"

"This food must be returned to the Northwest Army."

“We don’t have enough to eat ourselves, so how can we get the money and food to pay for it?”

"We ate food from the Northwest Army and couldn't afford it, so we joined the army. It doesn't feel so bad if we eat like this."

"Yes, those who have money will pay back, and those who have no money will join the army."

...

There were really many young men who flocked to the gate of the Prefecture Mufu to ask if they could join the army. They wanted to join the Northwest Chu Family Army.

When Zichen reported the situation outside the door to Chu Tianjiao, he asked, "Did you expect this to happen, so you deliberately said that you would lend the Northwest Army's rations to Yuzhou?"

Chu Tianjiao was checking the taxation documents of the current dynasty that Du Ningzhou had compiled for her. He raised his head and said, "Otherwise, am I saying that this grain was originally purchased for the disaster in Yuzhou?

I was not an official in Yuzhou before, why did I do this? "

Zichen curled his lips, "You just calculated that this would happen. You want to build momentum and force everyone in Yuzhou to work with you to promote your tax reform."

Chu Tianjiao waved his hand impatiently: "Don't interfere here with Du Zhonglang's lectures. Go out and tell the people in Yuzhou that they can join the army if they want. I will start recruiting soldiers in Yuzhou in three days. If they are willing, they can sign up then." .”

Zichen was even more puzzled: "Fielding soldiers? Where did you get the land in Yuzhou for you to farm?"

Chu Tianjiao chuckled and took out the land deed, "All the men in Xinyang Prince's Palace have died. The 20 acres of fertile land under the name of Xinyang Prince's Palace is distributed in southern Henan. It should be returned to the imperial court."

Now, the land deed has been confiscated and returned to the governor's office in Yuzhou.

I used these 20 acres of fertile land as collateral to borrow [-] dan of grain from the Northwest Army. Is there any problem? "

Zichen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You gave your left hand to your right hand, and the things you used were from Prince Xinyang's Palace.

Aren't you afraid that King Xinyang will climb up from the ground to settle accounts with you?

However, the imperial court wants to disarm the Northwest Army all day long, and you recruit [-] soldiers in Yuzhou. Does the imperial court have no objection? "

Chu Tianjiao rolled his eyes, "That's why I'm called a field hoarder. The court thinks I'm recruiting people to grow food. What's the opinion?"

Zichen wanted to ask something else, but Chu Tianjiao kicked him out.

Chu Tianjiao said to Du Ningzhou, who had been standing by with big confused eyes: "Du Zhonglang, please continue. Miscellaneous taxes are too complicated. There are so many items. Please explain them to me."

Only then did Du Ningzhou come to his senses and began to teach Chu Tianjiao.

That night, Lu Dingfeng, who went to Yizhou to help relocate victims from the counties near Puyang, came back.

Now that Jiang Yanni was inseparable from her, she naturally came back with her.

On the way, Lu Dingfeng heard about the emperor's latest appointment of Chu Tianjiao.

When he learned that the emperor was doing this to deduct the Northwest Army's rations for the second half of the year, Lu Dingfeng was furious: "Is this grandson crazy? Doesn't he know that by doing this, he is forcing the Chu family to split the country and seal the territory?"

Jiang Yanni was also shocked: "Will the Chu family rebel?"

Lu Dingfeng shook his head, "I don't know. But I know that if this continues, the Chu family can rebel at any time if they want."

Jiang Yanni panicked, pulled on Lu Dingfeng's sleeve and asked, "What should we do? Should we go to Beijing to give Yun Kui a warning?"

Lu Dingfeng pointed at Jiang Yanni and asked, "Look at you dressed as a cook, and then look at me. I'm just a second-class girl from Liyang Hou Mansion. How can we get back to the palace?"

Even if we return to the palace, will Lu Yunkui believe that we are his ancestors?It would be fine if we don’t get burned! "

Jiang Yanni sighed in frustration: "Then we can't just watch our family's empire being taken away by the Chu family, right?"

Lu Dingfeng's eyes showed a hint of fierceness, "It is better to be taken away by the Chu family than by the Xirong and Dongyi!

If this country continues to be in Lu Yunkui's hands, it will be lost sooner or later. "

Although he said this, Lu Dingfeng was still unwilling to accept it in his heart.

He already felt that Chu Tianjiao would no longer consult his opinion on many important matters now, and he would not be allowed to participate in the layout of military power.

Lu Dingfeng, the other members of the Chu family, was not worried. He was only worried about Chu Tianjiao and Chu Qingyan, the two people who had returned from the Ancestral Temple.

There is no guarantee that these two people have not taken over the Lu family and replaced them.

How should he choose then?

When Lu Dingfeng met Chu Tianjiao and Chu Tianjiao enthusiastically discussed with him preparations for tax reform, Lu Dingfeng's doubts dissipated a lot.

Privately, Chu Tianjiao said to Lu Dingfeng: "In a few days, the new governor of Yuzhou will take office, and I will leave Yuzhou then.

Tax reform does not happen overnight.

The fields in the five states must be re-measured and re-registered before I issue a decree.

During this period, I asked Grandpa Taizu to help me keep an eye on the post-disaster reconstruction of Yuzhou.

I will leave some manpower for you, and Zichen will also stay in Yuzhou to protect you.Du Ningzhou, an official of the Prefectural Governor's Office, was responsible for the matter on the surface.

After the tax reform strategy is formed, I will come to Yuzhou again to supervise the implementation of the new tax system. "

After hearing that Chu Tianjiao handed over Yuzhou to her to manage, Lu Dingfeng felt that she had been a bit of a villain before.

If the Chu family wants to rebel, they will definitely put their own people in several states. Why use themselves, the ancestor of the Lu family?

Lu Dingfeng and Jiang Yanni have been on tenterhooks these days. As the saying goes, they think about it every day and dream about it at night. Every night, they would whip Lu Yunkui's unfulfilled grandson in their dreams.

In the past few days, Lu Yunkui's condition worsened in Shangjing City.

He dreamed every night that he was being beaten by the two ancestors of the Lu family. He didn't know why, so he had to order the temple to be enshrined and double the number of offerings.

Monk Miaoyin from Anguo Temple was invited into the palace and chanted sutras to Lu Yunkui every night, but with little effect.

Concubine Ye suggested to the emperor that since it was useless to talk about Buddhism, it would be better to invite Taoists to try.

Ye Linxuan recommended a Taoist priest to enter the palace. After taking the elixir refined by the Taoist priest, Lu Yunkui finally had a good sleep.

Yuzhou now has food for the victims, and post-disaster reconstruction is proceeding smoothly.

The officials of the Prefectural Mufu Office also put in their best efforts.

Working together, Chu Tianjiao quickly straightened out the matters at hand.

The [-] Quzhou Army was also sent back to Quzhou by Chu Tianjiao. At the same time, Chu Tianjiao asked for merit for them, and all the Quzhou Army received military merit.

When they left Yuzhou, they were still reluctant to leave, and they all expressed to Chu Tianjiao that if they had the opportunity to fight alongside the Chu family army in the future, they would definitely watch and help each other.

Chu Tianjiao originally planned to recruit only 5 soldiers in Yuzhou. Unexpectedly, the people of Yuzhou were too enthusiastic and seriously exceeded the quota. The number of people who came from all over Yuzhou to sign up to join the army actually reached [-].

Yuzhou was hit by a disaster, and these young people stayed at home and could only consume food.

After joining the army, his family could legitimately eat military rations. This not only repaid the favor of the Northwest Army, but also provided food and clothing. The enthusiasm of young people in Yuzhou to join the army was unprecedentedly high.

"Fifty thousand, just fifty thousand. After years of disarmament, Li Guo already has insufficient troops. A war is imminent, so it is a good thing to recruit more troops."

Chu Tianjiao selected ten people from his personal guards, promoted them to officers, and led these [-] soldiers to station in Xinyang.

These ten officers are all old men of the Chu family army, and they are more than enough to control a team of new recruits.

Her instructions to this army were: to farm when the farm is busy, to train when the farm is slack, and to go to the battlefield during the war.

Chu Tianjiao had no plans to build a new governor's office, and planned to squeeze in with the new Yuzhou governor in the governor's office.

But unexpectedly, the Cui family sent Chu Tianjiao a house deed.

It was a house not far from the Prefectural Mufu's Mansion. The Cui family said that the house was a donation from the Cui family to serve as the residence of Chu Tianjiao's governor's office.

Chu Tianjiao did not refuse, and moved into the new Governor's Mansion the next day, and transferred several young officials from the Prefecture and Mu's Mansion who wanted to follow her to the Governor's Mansion as subordinate officials.

In this way, the Yuzhou Governor's Office was officially established.

After the new Yuzhou governor arrived and the handover was completed, Chu Tianjiao quickly left Yuzhou.
