To say that this Hanba took this "defeat" completely seriously was completely impossible given his age. Even though he seemed particularly transparent and ethereal on the surface, with everything figured out and "clearly" seen, the letter he wrote to his brother Hanfei showed his disappointment completely and unabashedly. According to his understanding, it was just right. It was because he had his elder brother in front of him, and in order to achieve the fairness of the other major families, that the winner of this year's debate excluded him as the first "unspoken rule" , As a result, he didn't even get a lotus pod and became the de facto "last one".
Young and energetic, he jumped directly to the angle of the question and criticized the question itself regardless of his status as there was something wrong with it.
Expressing love with hate is very perverted!
He went against the grain and came up with a different approach. He originally thought he would overpower the students and gain a commanding position, but he did not want to make a big mistake: the main mistake was to let them debate the content of the topic, not the "question author". wrong.
The more clever you are, the easier it will be for you to stumble, but he still wants to save face and refuses to give up. Regarding the matter of defending defeat, in addition to writing to his brother to complain that the academic style here is not as good as before, Han He also has a plan: since he stole After hearing the secret conversation between the coachman and the husband and wife, he already knew what he should do.
Here, Yang Zhen was treated very well. In addition to the "homework" he copied, the legs and feet of the official horse were also almost in good condition, so he took it to the eight major arts "a gentleman is hard to chase". On the outside track of the field, trot aside and count.
The rest of the work is simple. Get the proportion and search according to the picture, and the entire area of "Rongxiang" can be calculated. Based on this calculation, the sheep can collect a total of 45 horses and 36 cattle for the imperial court this time, which is quite a considerable group!
"All the Qiu Fu deeds have been circled. I just need to wait for you to go to the place where the seals are sealed and then you can return to deliver."
Zu Le arranged everything and felt happy. According to what his daughter said, the time to complete this matter was just before the New Deal arrived here.
Liang Zhi led the way and accompanied Yang Zhen, riding the handsome horse with a mane that he had trained, to Shi Chang's house.
This chief had already received the news and was waiting at home.
As expected, when he saw the Qiu Fu map submitted by Yang Zhen, he compared it with the official map in his hand that had been registered with the county: there was a huge discrepancy! Not only did it add a lot of wasteland and water, it also occupied many fields and house areas that originally belonged to the other nine families, including the Shi family's own family.
Shichang spread out the two pictures, compared them, pointed them to Yang Zhen, and said: "Sir, please look at it. Nedu, Nedu, and Zhongyouguodu should all be included in Rongxiang. I understand that you will invite them." Where is your registration? Is it because you have not personally inspected every place?"
Yang Zhen started to feel confused again!
The map was his "pot that couldn't be boiled". He originally thought: Even if he was confused, there were so many disciples in Rongxiang. If even the maps they drew were inaccurate and couldn't be believed, Is there any possibility that he could paint better because he visited each place by himself? It's over. When he was trying to avoid escaping under the dangerous cliff of the mudslide, his horse stumbled. He had already lost the "official map" he had brought, and his memory was unclear. Now that he was asked this question by the commander, for a moment, he didn't know. How to answer.
"Master Shichang! The map that Mr. Sheng came from the capital with is the latest survey. Moreover, the war in the north has just passed and the territory has changed. I don't think the map held by Shichang is an old map and needs to be updated?"
Liang Zhi came with a mission, so he naturally spoke for Yang Zhen at the same time.
"That's it - it shouldn't be possible! If there is an update, I should be the first to receive a notification from the county. Besides, this enclave of my family's home has been my family's property since my ancestors, so I will be the first to receive it." How about placing it under Rongxiang?"
Shi Chang pointed emphatically at a piece of his own land, which was now included in the boundaries of Rongxiang.
"As the head of ten households here, Shi Chang also has a public salary. I wonder if it is unfair to place so much emphasis on private property? Isn't it unfair and unworthy of his name?!"
Yang Zhen was at a loss for words, but this time, he suddenly had an idea. He seemed to be able to grab a very long "little braid", so he hurriedly said sarcastically.
"The emperor's sky is thick and the soil is thick. My family has lived here for generations. This is a very important position and it is also an honor for my family. How dare you ruin the reputation of our ancestors for a moment's selfishness! Please be careful what you say!"
Shi Chang began to have frost on his face.
It stands to reason that the lowest-level official in this place is not even an "official" and is at most a servant. But facing Qiu Fu, the lowest-level "non-staff" official who also has no rank, he can Regardless of whether he was sent from above, he only came here once, and he wanted to live forever. This principle must be adhered to.
"It's not that I don't believe in Shi Chang. The time to collect Qiu Fu this time is urgent and I have a heavy responsibility on my shoulders. I don't dare to play with the national affairs privately. I also ask Shi Chang to seal the seal as soon as possible. Don't delay the important events of Zheng Guo!"
Yang Zhen decided to make a quick decision and press it once. He rolled up the picture on the other side of Shi Chang, placed his own picture in the center, and pressed it on top of the "old picture".
"Human life is the most important thing in heaven and on earth. If I obey you, sir, and do not clarify all the doubts here, which will cause damage to the collection of national taxes, land and houses change owners, and people's resentment, you can suppress me, for fear that in the future, everyone will talk about it. , the inspector came, what is the truth? I'm afraid you, my lord, can't suppress it! If I seal the seal, I will be punished if I fail to do my duty, and even my clan will be exterminated. But you, my lord? You can be free in the capital, enjoy happiness and wealth, and be afraid of the world. There is no such nonsense! Please forgive me for not obeying my order."
Shiguan rolled the Yang Zhen's picture to one side in the same way, unfolded the original picture he provided below, and in turn, pressed it on top.
The two sides were in a stalemate, and the air was extremely quiet. The breathing of several people present could be clearly heard.
Liangzhi was at a loss as he was anxious to say something, but he didn't know what to say so as not to lose his mission.
At this moment, the voice sounded in Yang Zhen's ears again:
"Haha... I can't help it. Some people are born to be little people, and they remain so for the rest of their lives, wherever they go..."
Yang Zhen was in a state of confusion, and before his mind could figure it out, he moved his hands first.
I saw that the picture that Shi Guan was pressing had been pulled over by Yang Zhen and torn to pieces!
"Bold maniac! How dare you destroy official property!"
The chief looked up to the sky, crying, to pick up the pieces of paper that had been torn apart and could not be put back together, but to no avail.
