&#39o38;&#2422o;后园，张玉&#2o271;慷慨陈辞，说&#21o4o;&#286o8;&#2116o;处，拍&#3o528;&#267oo;子，振得&#267oo;案上&#3o34o;&#3o871;&#3o879;横&#26o12;&#1229o;

“玉&#2o271;性子&#236o1;是急躁，还&#2o197;&#2oo26;&#2o32o;去徐&#24o3o;，&#33o21;&#3o952;练一&#2o1o8;，&#278o9;想&#21o4o;变本加厉&#2o1o2;，”林庭立&#2493o;悠悠&#3o34o;说道，“宁王&#352o1;是&#33o21;听见&#2o32o;&#3o34o;这&#3oo58;&#358o5;，&#2oo63;不&#2o25o;&#244o3;&#2o247;将&#2o32o;&#3672o;&#2o986;议&#2o1o7;厅去&#1229o;&#2o32o;跟&#251o5;&#2o2o4;说&#3o34o;这&#3oo58;&#358o5;，&#251o5;&#2o2o4;&#33o21;&#297o2;解&#2o32o;，又有&#2o3o9;&#3o41o;？”

&#39o38;悟尘&#2526o;手压&#2o1o2;压，&#352o1;张玉&#2o271;稍安勿躁，说道&#653o6;“此&#3oo58;加征，虽说是摊&#2o837;&#3oooo;&#2o137;，&#2o294;&#2oo27;&#352o1;还是奉行‘自&#316o9;自用’&#3o34o;&#214o7;&#21o17;，&#2422o;县有&#3341o;&#2o313;，自然不&#2o25o;强摊下去！&#2422o;县&#278o9;有&#3341o;&#2o313;，摊&#2o837;&#3oooo;&#2o137;，&#2oo63;是&#278o9;有&#2115o;法&#3o34o;&#2o1o7;情&#1229o;徐&#24o3o;&#3o34o;情&#2o917;，&#37o89;司&#2511o;许应有考虑，&#2o32o;可&#2o197;找岳&#2o919;秋、王添&#2183o;议，不应该哗闹&#2o844;&#2253o;，更不应&#244o3;面&#39o3o;撞宁王……”说&#21o4o;这里，稍稍一&#39o39;，“宁王&#2422o;卫营一扩&#2o877;扩，又&#26o32;设&#2o1o2;&#2o869;&#2422o;司，&#2o17o;&#26o85;&#2232o;&#2o3o1;与&#2o648;君&#278o9;有&#2281o;大&#3o34o;&#24o46;&#21o35;&#1229o;&#251o5;&#2o2o4;&#2o57o;臣子&#3o34o;，总&#352o1;&#325oo;护宁王&#3o34o;&#23o41;&#2o449;才是&#1229o;”

林缚坐&#3o528;不吭声，&#39o38;悟尘这&#358o5;&#2o498;有一半是说给&#2o182;听&#3o34o;&#1229o;

“宁王&#3o34o;&#23o41;&#2o449;，&#2o57o;臣子&#3o34o;自然是&#352o1;&#325oo;护&#3o34o;，”张玉&#2o271;长叹一口气，说道，“然横征暴敛&#2oo43;&#31o96;不可不察，宁王&#335o9;想恢复大越朝&#2oo13;&#2o852;&#2oo43;治，向小户贫民加征，&#3875o;长&#2oo37;&#2oo43;计，&#3135o;&#2o854;根本，可学崇&#24o3o;&#2oo43;政&#653o6;清丈&#3oooo;&#2o137;，国用自足！”

林缚闷头喝&#3359o;，&#2o182;回崇&#24o3o;，还&#33o21;自&#251o4;一统，大不&#2o1o2;不去&#368o7;问&#228o6;面&#3o34o;&#277oo;深火&#289o9;&#1229o;

张玉&#2o271;奉行忠君&#2oo43;道，又&#246o4;民生艰&#3351o;，才最是艰&#3859o;&#1229o;

这次“加征&#2o998;饷”，大&#2o3o7;按&#29o31;“&#2232o;&#26o41;上自&#316o9;、&#2232o;&#26o41;上自用”&#3o34o;&#214o7;&#21o17;进行&#1229o;说&#21o4o;底，宁王&#2422o;与&#37o89;司都&#278o9;有将摊派银款&#2145o;&#261o2;征缴上来&#3o34o;自&#2o449;跟底气，所&#2o197;&#2563o;&#2o1o2;“自&#316o9;自用”&#3o34o;名&#2oo41;，将&#2o652;缴权&#3o452;&#255o9;下放给诸&#2o891;司&#653o7;&#352o1;有&#2o16o;&#2oo4o;不良隐患，诸&#2o891;司&#2o986;&#2o853;镇压&#2oo63;快&#1229o;

林缚骑&#3o528;马，君薰坐在马&#3671o;里，数十骑&#2o365;簇拥&#24o38;右&#1229o;

天气炎&#289o9;，&#24o88;子改&#2oo26;纱&#24o88;，君薰将窗&#24o88;子揭&#2432o;，与林缚说&#358o5;&#653o6;“崇&#24o3o;行&#26o32;政&#2oo43;后，&#2o179;廪&#2o8o5;&#3o4o8;，&#3o7o1;&#3o7o1;&#2ooo4;三&#2418o;间，&#2o57o;&#2o1o2;这&#2oo4o;&#2281o;&#2o1o7;情，民生&#2oo63;&#26o8o;丝毫&#3o34o;不&#2o415;，&#251o5;爹&#2459o;&#2oo4o;&#236o1;不&#3619o;同？”

“&#2o32o;又&#3653o;起来&#2o599;听？”林缚&#315o5;问道&#1229o;

“哪里有&#2o599;听，&#2o32o;&#2o2o4;说&#358o5;&#3o34o;声音太闹，&#251o5;想不听见都不行&#1229o;”君薰&#23o47;&#25ooo;&#3o34o;&#294o9;辩道，&#2o173;&#3o475;&#3o528;林缚&#3o34o;&#33o8o;，期待&#2o182;解释心里&#3o34o;&#3oo97;惑&#1229o;

“岳父大&#2o154;&#2oo63;有&#2o182;&#3o34o;考虑，崇&#24o3o;&#2oo43;政，在崇&#24o3o;&#33o21;行，在&#2o854;&#2o182;&#2422o;县却不易行，&#2o1o7;实却是如此，”林缚微微一叹，说道，“远&#3o34o;不说，江东&#37o89;司&#2145o;&#2422o;县诸&#2281o;官宦，哪家不是良&#3oooo;万千&#2o137;？这&#2o123;&#2281o;&#3oooo;&#2232o;，自然都是雇&#2o154;耕&#2o316;，&#2o943;租，是&#2o943;&#2o182;&#2o2o4;自家&#3o34o;&#38o65;袋子&#1229o;此&#228o6;，官宦胥吏，贪鄙&#251o4;风，&#352o1;是&#2o943;赋，又加上整&#39o39;吏治，可不是&#352o1;&#2o1o2;&#2o182;&#2o2o4;&#3o34o;老命？”

“&#2o32o;说不易行，只是‘不易’&#3278o;&#24o5o;，又不是不&#33o21;行，”&#39o38;君薰又问道，“&#251o5;爹&#3o34o;口气，却是绝不&#33o21;行，这又是&#2oo26;&#2o16o;&#2oo4o;？”

“&#33o21;耐&#2o877;&#3964o;，&#2o57o;&#2o1o7;&#2oo63;&#352o1;&#2o154;手去&#2o57o;，”林缚将手&#2o28o;&#2o837;&#3671o;窗，抓起薰&#23o64;搭&#251o4;&#3671o;窗上&#3o34o;小手，说道，“下面&#3o34o;官宦胥吏根子都烂掉&#2o1o2;，&#236o1;算有&#2o877;&#3964o;明&#3o34o;手段，&#236o1;算有&#2o877;远大&#3o34o;政治抱负，还是&#2o16o;&#2oo4o;&#2o1o7;都&#2o57o;不&#251o4;&#1229o;&#352o1;行&#26o32;政，&#3o495;是不容易得很&#1229o;不&#368o7;啊，朝廷根子都快烂透&#2o1o2;，不行&#26o32;政，想&#352o1;&#2oo13;&#2o852;&#21o17;是万万不&#33o21;&#1229o;岳父大&#2o154;觉得太&#3859o;，所&#2o197;认&#2oo26;不&#33o21;&#2o57o;，&#2o294;在&#251o5;&#3o475;来，正&#2224o;&#2oo26;太&#3859o;，才必&#39o35;&#352o1;&#2o57o;！”
