Xiao Qinghuan

But getting up early has its downsides.

So when Jiang Xiaohan saw the simple cloth strip, he asked rather slowly, "Who?"

"News from Mr. Yan." Jiang Mo repeated.

"Oh..." Jiang Xiaohan pinched the bridge of his nose, stretched out his hand and said, "Give it to me."

The strip of cloth was wrinkled, Jiang Xiaohan untied the knotted part of the strip in doubt, and smoothed the cloth.The charcoal marks on it were somewhat blurred by the drizzle, but the writing on it could still be seen clearly.

——A half-fold half-book is three hundred feet, which can be compared to a bright moon shining on a tall building.

Jiang Xiaohan's expression changed.

Jiang Mo glanced at it, and saw that there was only one line of poetry on the cloth, but Jiang Xiaohan's face was so ugly, Jiang Mo couldn't help being a little dazed, and didn't know how to react at this time.

But Jiang Xiaohan understood this sentence, the half-fold and half-volume refers to the book, and "the bright moon shines on the tall building, and the streamer is wandering" is what Yan Qing is reminding him that this book is related to Luo Suifeng.

Jiang Xiaohan stroked the handwriting on the strip of cloth. The cloth in his hand was soft and delicate, and it was a good inner material.If it was an ordinary matter, Yan Qing would not be in a hurry to contact him in this way, so when he went to Liujia Village, he must have discovered something, so he was so impatient to tell him.

Jiang Xiaohan's gaze fell on the first half of the line of the poem, and he muttered to himself, "...three hundred feet."

Jiang Mo didn't hear clearly: "What?"

Jiang Xiaohan shook his head at him, he pondered for a moment, rolled up the cloth and stuffed it back into his sleeve, and then ordered: "Go, call Wei Shen."

Yan Qing would not mention that book for no reason.That thing can scare Wen Zui to kill Granny Wen overnight, it must be something that can hurt Wen Zui's muscles and bones.However, because Luo Suifeng took most of them away, Jiang Xiaohan suffered from lack of reference even though he had a translation, and was unable to connect the book with the actual "criminal evidence".

As a result, Yan Qing told him that this thing might be related to the land.

Wei Shen has been stationed in the Pingjiang government office with his personal guards these days, and he came very quickly.

"grown ups."

Wei Shen was wearing a light armor with dust on it, he had just returned from collecting the ashes from the work shed, he stood under the hall, took a wet cloth handed by Jiang Mo, wiped his armor, and asked, "What's the matter? "

"Who is in charge of the native place account book in the government office?" Jiang Xiaohan asked.

Da Chu has very strict jurisdiction over the land, requiring every prefecture and county to record the land situation and hand it over to the local county government for entry.The enfeoffment, recovery and sale of land all need to go to the government office to go through the list, and then change the name of the land deed.Most of these things are reported to the village as a unit, and then reported to the county government, and then reported layer by layer. The process is cumbersome, and the procedures and documents involved are not exhaustive. Most of the detailed records are made by the local county government. Or the government office is in charge.

This thing should have been handled by the chief secretary of the government office, but Wen Zui is still locked in the private prison of the Wen residence, and the master secretary beside him has not yet been investigated, so all affairs in the government office are handled by Jiang. Xiaohan took over, and these private treasuries or documents were naturally handed over to the Shenweiying to take care of them.

Wei Shen also made him stunned: "This thing is idle and no one is going to touch it. It should be my soldiers watching."

"Hmm." Jiang Xiaohan was thinking: "Then please trouble General Wei to find out the cadastral records that have been worked on for nearly three years. It will be useful to me."

Although Wei Shen didn't know what kind of medicine he sold in the gourd, he agreed to go.

After a while, a young man in light armor entered the door carrying two large bundles of books. Each bundle of books was half the height of a person, which looked heavy.The young man swung himself in the door swaying from side to side, staggered and put the thing beside Jiang Xiaohan, and with a bang, dust from years of history splashed on Mr. Jiang's face.

Jiang Xiaohan: "..."

youth:"……"

Jiang Mo was stunned.

Jiang Xiaohan silently reached out and wiped his face.The young man scratched his head and said with a dry smile, "This... this pile has been stored in the warehouse for too long, there is nothing I can do about it."

Jiang Mo suppressed a smile and went to twist the sweat towel for Jiang Xiaohan. Jiang Xiaohan was not of a violent temper, so he forced out a self-confident smile and said, "It's nothing."

The young man could not help but shudder.

Although the cadastres have been arranged by year, they cannot hold up too many, and no one would look through them on weekdays.Jiang Xiaohan randomly pulled out a few books from the bottom, coughing from the ashes on top.

He took a sip of his tea and then turned his head to ask the young man, "Are you literate?"

"Ah?" The young man looked puzzled: "I must know you."

Jiang Xiaohan removed more than half of the two bundles of books, divided them into several stacks and placed them on the desk in front of him, and pointed out the remaining six or seven books to him, and took two sheets of rice paper from the desk and put them on top.

"Anyone who sees the land in Liujia Village, set it aside and give it to me." Jiang Xiaohan pointed to the books, and said patiently: "Including the rented land, all the landowners' lists are required, understand."

"Understood." The young man grinned and waved his hand nonchalantly: "Don't worry about this little matter, my lord."

Jiang Xiaohan was a little worried, and it happened that Jiang Mo came back after twisting the sweat towel, so Jiang Xiaohan asked the two of them to move a book table, and sat down with him to copy it together.

The territory of Pingjiang is rich and the conditions are favorable, so the cadastre not only contains the land of farmers outside, but also the hunting grounds of Zhuangzi of various non-officials, and it takes time and effort to find it.

Jiang Xiaohan read the files very quickly, but he didn't expect that the young man was not bad.About half an hour later, two transcribed papers were placed on his desk.

Jiang Xiaohan was a little surprised. He put down the pen in his hand and took a look at the paper. Although the handwriting on it was a bit hard to describe, the list that should be written was clear, one by one.

"Well done." Jiang Xiaohan praised.

The young man laughed and said, "It's all trivial."

Hearing the young man's accent, Jiang Xiaohan seemed to be from the northern generation. He counted the guards and foreign officials of the northern generation, and couldn't help asking, "What's your name?"

"The surname is Guan." The young man said, "Guan Zhong."

The name was a bit unfamiliar, and Jiang Xiaohan couldn't remember which family this was from.

"My lord is very powerful, so I must have never heard of me." The young man said, "My father was a general in Liaodong County before he was alive, but he was killed by the Huns. It happened that the imperial army expanded its recruitment, so I followed him to Beijing."

It turned out to be an orphan of a soldier, Jiang Xiaohan lowered his eyes, and quietly twisted the paper in his hand.

This kind of person has always been classified as "easy to use" by Jiang Xiaohan. A person with no worries and no background behind him. If he is used well, he can be regarded as a good hand.

But Shenwei Ying is the emperor's guard after all, and Jiang Xiaohan is not sure whether Guan Zhong's appearance in front of him is a pure coincidence, or a planned "ulterior motive".

Jiang Xiaohan smiled, took a few more account books and handed them to him, bringing this topic over.

The current situation in Beijing is unclear, no matter what the situation is, Jiang Xiaohan does not intend to accept this trick.

Thanks to someone's help, Jiang Xiaohan managed to gather all these account books when it was getting dark.

There is indeed a problem in the land accounts of Liujia Village, and the land allocated is as much as [-] mu.

Jiang Xiaohan put down the stack of transcripts in his hand, and Jiang Mo brought him a cup of tea in a timely manner. After Guan Zhong finished his help, he returned to Wei Shen's side to report. At this time, only Jiang Xiaohan's master and servant were left in the lobby.

"Isn't there already a process?" Jiang Mo asked: "Why is the young master still so sad?"

Although Jiang Xiaohan didn't expect to find evidence of Wen Zui's land enclosure from these records, he thought he could at least find some clues from the accounts. Who knows that although most of the land in Liujia Village has been counted to others, it is not in Wen Zui's land. In the name of drunkenness, it fell on a person Jiang Xiaohan never thought of.

—— King Yongan, Ning Zongze.

Jiang Xiaohan felt a headache.

King Yong'an is Ning Zongyuan's direct younger brother, the nine princes most beloved by the late emperor, and has been loved since childhood. Even when Ning Zongyuan came to the throne, he doted on this younger brother in every possible way.For so many years, everyone in Ren Chaozhong would give a three-point favor to anyone who saw him.

But this Ninth Prince's fief is far away in Jiujiang Mansion, and he has never participated in power struggles in the imperial city. He only cares about his royal family and relatives, so somehow he saw his famous post here.

It was clearly written in the cadastre that these lands were exchanged by Wen Zui and King Yong'an for the land in exchange for the land. If you like it, I wish it. There is also a note from the housekeeper of the palace on it.

In Dachu's cadastre, only the last record of the sale and replacement of land is kept, and it is impossible to go back.

That is to say, even if everyone knows that Wen Zui came here for no reason, he can also say that the villagers outside sold it to him for money, and the laws of the Great Chu will not help him.

It seemed like King Yong'an used his power to oppress others and colluded with Wen Zui to seek personal gain, but Jiang Xiaohan always felt that this matter was not that simple.King Yong'an has never been involved in these party struggles, he just needs to send a word to Beijing for what he wants, and Ning Zongyuan will naturally agree to him based on how much he loves him, there is no need to mix with Wen Zui to do some land enclosure.

Jiang Xiaohan thought, this Ninth Prince might also be a target.

But the cadastre of Pingjiang Mansion can only record the land of Pingjiang, and Jiang Xiaohan has no way of knowing what land Wen Zui exchanged from King Yong'an.

It's useless to ponder here alone with the door closed, Jiang Xiaohan thought, he still has to write to King Yong'an.
