The revision of the "Shenghan Code" cannot be completed overnight, nor can it be done by one person. Zhang Xiaowu appointed Guo Xiang as his left chief of staff, who was responsible for the revision of the law and recruited various experts who were proficient in law, criminal law, and bloggers.
Knowing talents. After learning that Zhang Xiaowu was recruiting talents in the Marshal's Mansion in Youzhou, many talents of all kinds poured into Youzhou City. Zhang Xiaowu also immediately provided corresponding treatment to these literati. In addition to providing houses, food and accommodation,
It also helped them resettle their families, provided protection, and exempted them from labor taxes.
The Staff Office of the Marshal's Mansion has also become a popular place for literati, with a grand scene of eight thousand customers. The staff actively provided various supports to Zhang Xiaowu and put forward a series of suggestions in the field of reform that adapt to the times. Although Zhang Xiaowu did not directly give them
Power, but such respect for the staff was enough to make everyone feel more excited, and they felt as if they had met Ming Palace.
Most of the staff in the Staff Department were literati, including doers and theorists. Zhang Xiaowu entrusted them with important tasks one by one, and the doers were put to work in the government. As for the theorists, Zhang Xiaowu decided to send them to schools to become teachers. He
Started to establish an institution of higher learning in Youzhou, named Qingyun Academy.
Qingyun Academy has twenty-four subjects including Chinese, law, poetry, music, instruments, knowledge, folk customs, meteorology, agriculture, and commerce. Each subject has one academic, three professors, six lecturers, and handymen.
Six people served these ten teachers. Zhang Xiaowu gave the 240 teachers of these 24 subjects one year of preparation time to write textbooks, design teaching progress and even syllabus. After one year, he began to recruit from the entire Holy Han Empire
Student-taught teaching.
At the same time, Zhang Xiaowu spent huge sums of money to build Qingyun Academy in Miyun County, Youzhou Prefecture. Within one year, he supervised the completion of the construction of a school building that could accommodate 3,000 to 5,000 students.
Under Zhang Xiaowu's determined reforms, the four northern states were making great strides forward. At this time, other areas of the Holy Han Empire were more declining than before.
Longdu City, the center of the empire, has also lost its former prosperity, and one thing that makes everyone interesting is the farce of remarriage in the palace of Dushan County.
Speaking of which, this marriage has something to do with Zhang Xiaowu.
Ye Xiangdong, the king of Lao Dushan County and the former military marshal, once had the most power in the world, and was planning to betroth his granddaughter Ye Wanying, known as the most talented woman in Longdu, to the late emperor as his queen. However, he never thought that Ye Xiangdong would die in battle first.
Later, Emperor Dade passed away, and Ye Wanying became the most famous family member in the world.
For a woman whose husband died before marrying the emperor, how can anyone in the world dare to propose marriage to the Ye family?
In order to curry favor with Li Cunyi, Ye Nansheng, the king of Dushan County, even proposed to marry his niece to Li Cunyi's widowed brother Li Cunyuan. Although Li Cunyi declined immediately, Ye Wanying became a monk and went to Fanyin Temple to become a monk after learning about her third uncle's plan.
She married a female Taoist priest. But on the night before she became a monk, she returned all the deeds of sale to all her servants. Everyone was transformed from domestic slaves into servants, and they were suddenly moved to the point of crying.
There was only one person in Ye Wanying's heart, Zhang Xiaowu. Unfortunately, the two were not destined to be different, so she could only hide her feelings in her heart. After learning that her third uncle was so heartless, Ye Wanying was heartbroken, so she went to the Taoist temple. It's just that the Taoist temple
The female Taoist priest said that her earthly destiny was not over and she did not accept her as a monk. Instead, she became a lay female Taoist who stayed at Fanyin Temple.
When Ye Nansheng saw that Ye Wanying had become a female Taoist priest, he was immediately overjoyed. He pretended to marry his niece to Li Cunyuan, but in fact he was forcing his niece away. The purpose of forcing Ye Wanying away was simple. Ye Nansheng hoped that there would be only one master in the family.
Although he inherited the title and became the head of the family, Ye Wanying has always controlled the family's financial power. The family's fields, real estate, merchants, and slave contracts are all in the hands of Miss Ye, and most of the people in the family are under Ye Wanying's command. Ye Nansheng is weak and has no heirs.
He was worried that if his niece recruited a wife into the family, she would most likely become the real head of the family by virtue of her children.
Ye Nansheng was immersed in the joy of being in charge of the family's finances, completely unaware of the different thoughts of his servants. Within a month, Ye Nansheng's head was as big as a bucket. He found that the living expenses at home had increased three times compared with before.
The reason why the salary of a domestic servant was increased was because he did not know how to calculate and check accounts, so that the servants lined their pockets one after another.
Half a year later, Ye Nansheng suddenly discovered that the money and food at home were gone. He was dizzy looking at the account books. He gritted his teeth and had to sell the collection in the house. Then he suddenly discovered that many of the collection in the house had been stolen. As for who stole it,
No one knows when it was stolen.
"Damn it, Xiao Nizi must have sent someone to sell off her property in advance. I'm going to Fanyin Temple to find her!" Ye Nansheng came to Fanyin Temple angrily with his thugs, only to learn that half a year ago, Ye Wanying was raped by a Nanyang girl.
Prince Shi Zhongqiu picked him up.
The female princess of Nanyang was not in Longdu at this time. She took Ye Wanying and a group of guards to travel around the world on the pretext of inspecting her family's property.
Ye Nansheng was so angry that his old illness relapsed. His mouth and eyes were crooked, his whole body suffered from cramps and a stroke... He became a paralytic.
After Ye Nansheng was paralyzed, the scattered members of the Ye family immediately flocked to the Ye family to compete for the family property. Although most of these relatives were estranged, after all, they all had the surname Ye, and their ancestors were also brothers of the Ye family, so they were eligible to compete for the family property.
At this time, Ye Nansheng was a paralytic who could neither speak nor move. He watched helplessly as everyone competed for property, but he actually starved to death. Seeing Ye Nansheng's death, the relatives of the Ye family became even more unscrupulous in robbing the Ye family's property, even regardless of their appearance.
A big fight.
The Ye family's dispute over property suddenly became the biggest joke in Longdu City. People never expected that the once dignified Dushan uncle's house would now be in such an unbearable situation. Fortunately, at this time, General Ouyang Hong came forward to take control of the Ye family.
The turmoil drove away these crazy relatives.
Later, Ouyang Hong chose a twelve-year-old boy named Ye Feng from among the Ye family members to be the heir apparent to the Duke of Dushan. He personally served as Ye Feng's adoptive father and taught the young man civil and martial arts carefully. He will marry Ye Feng and accept the title of Duke when he turns eighteen.
title.
Shi Zhongqiu and Ye Wanying did not travel to the four northern states. They went to Yizhou in the southwest. The Nanyang County Prince's Palace had a piece of land in Yizhou's Chengdu Prefecture, and the life in Yizhou was comfortable and spring-like all year round. The two girls came here with their guard maids to relax.
.
They naturally thought about going to Youzhou to see how it was under Zhang Xiaowu's rule. However, the two women liked Zhang Xiaowu and did not want to cause him more trouble. After all, they had special status and went to the north to add fuel to Zhang Xiaowu's disciples.
At this time, Zhang Xiaowu was in high spirits, everything in the four northern states was developing at a rapid pace, talents from all over the world were pouring in, and there was quite a general trend that the world was returning home.
However, he received a reply from Kohachiro, the subordinate of the Fuso envoy. After reading it, he was shocked. It turned out that the Gaoshan Kingdom sent people to search privately, but they learned from the hostile Hierro Kingdom that a goddess fruit tree was about to mature - but Hierro Country did not
It is the most unruly and xenophobic country among the Fuso Islands.
"Should I go to the Fuso Islands in person?" Zhang Xiaowu shook his head and smiled bitterly.
