Fengyang is located in the Central Plains.

If the capital was not established here, more troops would be wasted to defend it, and it would be easy to attack and difficult to defend. The capital would never be in Yingtian Mansion, but here.

Zhao Zheng looked at the [-] mu of land that belonged to him, the [-] mu of land that could not be seen at a glance.

He found an old chair, sat on the field ridge, looked into the distance, and waited for Wu Feng to report back.

And Wu Feng did not disappoint him.

Soon, with the cooperation of Governor Liu Yao, those people who belonged to his one hundred acres of land were found back.

Also brought back by Wu Feng, there were a few others who were either proud or smiling.

They still don't know what they are going to face.

"Lord Zhao, the last general has brought Lu Zhi, the son of Marquis Ji'an, Xie Biying, the son of Marquis Yongping, Guo Kaida, the son of Marquis Wuding, and Zhou Wanfang, the son of Marquis Jiang Xia."

"It's the four of them who transferred these laborers to do their own private affairs."

In the Sun Moon Dynasty, there was no such thing as Jin Yiwei wanted to investigate, but couldn't find out.

What's more, there is Liu Yao's governor to testify.

"Four young masters? Why did they mobilize these labors belonging to Zhao?"

Zhao Zheng looked at the four 'nobles' who showed their heroic qualities just by standing aside, and asked Wu Feng.

"It's because of Prime Minister Hu's letter!"

Wu Feng took out a piece of paper from his bosom that was stamped with the official seal of Prime Minister You of Zhongshu Province.

Zhao Zheng took it, looked at the paper, and smiled.

Only then did he get up and walk to the four young masters.

"Four young masters?"

"Can you tell Zhao that you asked for this letter, or did Hu Xiangguo feel that you lack manpower and gave it to you?"

Facing Zhao Zheng's question, the four had their own expressions.

"You are just a young master, what qualifications do you have to ask about Hu Xiang?"

"What are you doing, just say it directly, don't beat around the bush here, the young master won't accept your tricks!"

"We all act according to the rules. Did we do something wrong? If you want trouble, you go to Hu Xiang!"

Among the four people, some were silent, some said they complied with the rules, and some spoke boldly to Zhao Zheng.

Zhao Zheng laughed.

Wu Feng on the side also frowned.

"Little young master?"

"Hahaha!"

"Dare to ask a few young masters, what kind of official position do you have?"

"Zhao is young and has no achievements, but he got a junior third-rank official. Presumably the young adults are all talented and knowledgeable, and their official titles are higher than Zhao's, right?"

Faced with Zhao Zheng's taunt, the four of them blushed, while others raised their heads even higher.

"Father Ji Anhou!"

"Father, Marquis Yongping!"

Lu Zhi and Xie Biying were the two who raised their heads.

"Wu Feng!"

"The end is here!"

"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and tie up the two Marquises. A hundred acres of land is huge, and a visit from Asuka is indispensable. I think the two little Marquises are very willing to make another glory for their father and become a scarecrow general!"

"The last will obey!"

"You two young masters, you will offend the general at the end!"

Wu Feng talked about offending, but the movements of his hands did not slow down at all.

Where did Lu Zhi and Xie Biying ever think that Zhao Zheng would tie himself up as a scarecrow when he disagreed with each other.

"Do you know who my father is!"

"You dare to rebel!"

Among them, Lu Zhi was the most daring.

"General Wu, did you hear that? To oppose Marquis Ji An is to rebel!"

Zhao Zhengcai didn't bother to deal with people who couldn't see the situation clearly. Mao Xiang was better than Mao Xiang, and Wu Feng was better than Wu Feng.

What he needs now is Wu Feng.

Soon, on the [-]-acre field belonging to Zhao Zheng, there were two more struggling scarecrows.

Both Guo Kaida and Zhou Wanfang were dumbfounded.

In Fengyang, it can be said that they have never been wronged so much since the founding of the country.

But the two of them also knew that Zhao Zheng was a ruthless person.

All of a sudden, I felt fortunate that I was rational just now.

"Master Zhao!"

"Guo\Zhou, I know I was wrong, please forgive me, Mr. Zhao!"

The two are acquainted.

But now Zhao Zheng is not so easy to talk to.

"Two young masters?"

"Excuse me, have you mobilized the laborers belonging to Zhao, have you paid?"

"what!?"

Guo and Zhou didn't react for a while, why did the person in front of them change the subject so quickly.

But in order not to be guilty, the two immediately went on the road.

"We forgot, and we will supply Master Zhao!"

"What are you doing to Zhao? To them!"

"By the way, Mrs. Liu!"

"The subordinate is here!"

"From now on, notices will be posted in various places in Fengyang. Anyone in Fengyang, whether an official or a businessman, is not allowed to mobilize manpower for free through the Ministry of Education!"

"No remuneration, no written evidence, all will be rejected!"

"In addition, all labor transfers will be withdrawn without His Majesty's decree!"

"Whoever objects, bring him to Zhao!"

Zhao Zheng came to Fengyang for the simple purpose of farming.

But who knows, Emperor Zhu Chongba didn't let him go.

In this way, Zhao Zheng is sorry for himself if he doesn't open a blue form.

"General Wu, Mr. Zhao has one more thing to ask of you."

"The last general is here, Mr. Zhao, please tell me."

"Immediately ask your subordinates to thoroughly investigate the property of all nobles and ministers in Fengyang!"

"Even if it's only one copper coin worth more than His Majesty's reward, organize it into a book and report it to me!"

"Yes!"

After giving all the orders, Zhao Zheng looked at the trembling Guo Zhou and the rest of the scene.

"You two young masters, how is your family property?"

"This......"

Guo and Zhou looked at each other, wanted to say something, but dared not.

"Oh, the two young masters don't know something."

"Fengyang is a good place, but the people are not living well. Do you two know why?"

Guo and Zhou quickly shook their heads.

They don't want to know, and they don't want to know.

"Because the burden is too heavy!"

"Fengyang has the imperial mausoleum and the fiefdoms of heroes like you. There is not much land left for the people, but they still have to bear the salaries of heroes like you."

"Although Fengyang has been upgraded to a mansion, in Zhao's view, this is a county!"

"So for the sake of Fengyang, are the two young masters willing to lobby the honorable ministers in Fengyang for Zhao to donate generously and build Fengyang together?"

Without waiting for Guo and Zhou to respond.

Zhao Zheng beckoned and called some of Wu Feng's subordinates.

"The two young masters understand righteousness deeply, and Zhao can't compare to them."

"Mr. Zhao, please trouble me. From now on, I will follow the two young masters and lobby Fengyang together."

"Yes! The last will obey!"

"By the way, I haven't asked the two young masters whether they agree? Are you willing to worry about your majesty!"

"You two young masters, do you agree?"

The smile on Zhao Zheng's face disappeared completely, leaving only naked threats to Guo and Zhou.

How dare Guo and Zhou not agree.

"Promise, promise! Share your worries for His Majesty, of course you should!"

The two nodded like pounding garlic.

"In that case, let's start with the family of the two young masters who volunteered to serve as Scarecrow Generals!"

Zhao Zheng picked up a stone from the ground and threw it directly at one of the two scarecrows.

"Ah! It hurts me too!"

"Oh, I'm sorry, Zhao threw it crookedly, and I wanted to throw a bird just now."

Zhao Zheng said sorry in an 'embarrassed' way before turning around again.

"You two young masters? What are you waiting for?"
