please make me king

Chapter 287 Death of "Zijin Liang"

As soon as Zhang Shun heard the illogical remarks of the second leader "Zijinliang", he asked strangely: "Second leader, how do you say this?"

"Liu Ji Liu Bowen, the number one counselor in my dynasty who founded the country, once divined my fortune in the Ming Dynasty, and he affirmed: hang a ruler on the tree, and it will stop when things go well."

"At first, I couldn't figure it out. I didn't know what I meant. It was only when I heard your surname Zhang Mingshun just now that I realized it. Isn't this 'when you meet the rules, you will stop', it is right for you? The world of the Zhu family, It should be destroyed by you and replaced!"

After finishing speaking, "Zijin Liang" turned his head to "Zuojin King" He Jin and "Geliyan" He Yilong and said: "I know I ordered you to recognize him as the master just now, you are quite dissatisfied, you are really blind Amazing! Don’t you know that it turns out that the real dragon is in front of you, and I am giving you a great fortune, and I am worthy of you following me for a long time.”

"Left Gold King" He Jin and "Ge Liyan" He Yilong were taken aback when they heard the words, they didn't expect such a reason.He couldn't help being moved, and hastily bowed to the second master "Zijin Liang", saying: "Thank you second master for your success, I will never forget it!"

Of course, apart from being grateful, these two people couldn't help feeling a little doubt in their hearts: Although the second master "Zijin Liang" has some talents, why is he so ignorant, when did he become so polite?But fortunately, it was the time when the second head was alive and dead, and the two didn't have time to think about it.

Zhang Shun had been boasted a lot before, and his face was thickened a lot, but he just said a few words of humility, "I dare not be ashamed", so I stopped trying to persuade him.

Perhaps "Zijin Liang" feels the passing of life and is more eager for life.So he didn't wave them back, but continued, "Where is Taoist Wuxu?"

"Yes!" Daoist Wuxu replied without sadness or joy.

"I know that your Excellency is a person from outside, but how can this great world ever accommodate people from outside below? I was also a monk. I shaved my head and became a monk for several years. After the catastrophe, I still have no food or drink!"

"The imperial court doesn't care about food, and the Buddha doesn't care about food. We had no choice but to deceive our master and exterminate our ancestors and become this traitor. Now you are also counted as a den of thieves, Daoist Wuxu. I know you are also a person of great talent. I didn't want to listen to you before The Taoist priest's words, but Han Tingxian's thief credulously believed."

"I heard a few days ago that Han Tingxian was murdered by Cao Wenzhao. It's really satisfying. I just wish I could get to know him personally."

"Since the Taoist priest knows that Zhang Shun has a destiny, why not leave him as an assistant. For the position of Zhuge Liuhou, it was set up by the Taoist priest!"

Daoist Wuxu couldn't laugh or cry when he heard the words, you are more thoughtful than my arrangement.According to Zhang Shun's words, it is "everyone has learned to answer quickly".

Taoist Wuxu had no choice but to respond: "I would like to follow the order of the second master. I am an old Taoist priest, and it seems that I have to follow 'Optimus Prime' to the rolling world of mortals!"

Zhang Shun almost burst out laughing, anyway, people are always expressionless, and others can't tell the truth.He also pretended to respond: "Thanks to the second leader for helping me, and also to Taoist Wuxu for helping me. I, Zhang Shun, can't guarantee anything. As long as I, Zhang Shun, eat a bite, everyone's food will be indispensable!"

"If the officers and soldiers come, I will dare to fight, and I will definitely let the Chongzhen child sleep and eat. Hearing my name, he will be terrified!"

"Zijinliang" was quite happy when he heard the words, so he said, "I was born in Suide back then, young and vigorous, riding horses, walking dogs, and playing captives, so happy!"

"It's just that I don't know how to save, and the family has no money left. I eat and drink everything. As a result, when the drought came, I couldn't make a living, so I had to be ordained and become a monk."

"At the beginning, there was still food in the temple, and we were able to support it. But we never thought that the drought would last for two years, and even the temple would have no food. Our family had no choice but to follow the example of the great ancestor of the Ming Dynasty and engage in rebellion."

"I have been in the army before, and I know a little about the art of war. I call myself 'Building the Zijin Liang of the Sea'. I am going to do something that will turn the world upside down and change the dynasty. I never thought that if you have great ambitions and talents, you should die here!"

"Now the frontier army is good at fighting, and the courtiers are single-minded. The Ming Dynasty rejects the gold captives in the north, and the south is peaceful and peaceful. Will my rebel army survive?"

"Since I became the leader of the Thirty-Sixth Battalion, I have been sleeping all day long, tossing and turning, unable to sleep peacefully. I only worry about the future of the rebel army. I don't dare to talk about my ambitions. I only hope that my brothers can do something, and I can't be a thief for life! "

"I like to listen to "Water Margin of Loyalty", and I deeply feel that Song Sanlang has lofty aspirations, regardless of personal gains and losses. I also deeply agree with war to force peace and peace to force edict."

"It's just that the head of the family and I disturbed Shaanxi, Shanxi and other places successively, and the world was shaken. Why is the imperial court still obsessed with exterminating us, and never had any intention of Zhaoan?"

"Aren't we the young children of Ming Dynasty? Are we not the people of Ming Dynasty? Don't we deserve to die, and we deserve to live together elsewhere? Why? Why!"

The second head of the "Zijinliang" was still looking back on the past, recalling his life experience, but he didn't expect to tell the future of the rebel army and the matter of Zhao'an, and he still felt resentful.

Zhang Shun was silent for a while, then replied: "Second leader, you have to want to, but you can't. The imperial court also wants to Zhao'an, but the food and pay are empty, just to save money; the rebels want to Zhao'an, but they just don't have food and just want to survive. "

"Then, if you want the righteous army to survive, the court can only solve the problem by paying money and food. But if the court has money and food, why send troops to destroy us?"

"The imperial government pays countless taxes and labor every year. Why is there no money?" The second master asked strangely.

"Because these taxes and labor need to go through several steps before they can be used. The first step is to collect taxes. The tax collectors can get money at hand. The court collects one, and officials dare to collect ten; the second is to transport the capital to other places. The fire consumption was lost, and it was handed over by the officials who handled it; the third one went into the warehouse, one was paid to the prince of the Zhu family, and the other was embezzled by the royal family. The officials who dealt with it are all exploitative, so far, the world's money, food, taxes and fees have been exhausted!"

"How dare they do this? How dare they do this!" "Zijin Liang" was so sad and indignant that he vomited blood and died on the spot.

It turned out that because of their low status, the second head of the "Zijinliang" never knew the money and food operations of the court, but they just instinctively hated corrupt officials, and they didn't know that there were so many ways in it.When he thought of so many brothers and sisters dying because of this, he was filled with grief and indignation, and died in a hurry.

In fact, Zhang Shun didn't know much about it, but fortunately, Zhang Shenyan, as a member of the imperial court, was quite clear about his connections.Zhang Shun discussed with him many times before he understood the truth about the lack of money in the late Ming Dynasty.

Poor Emperor Chongzhen, for the sake of food and salary, he followed Yang Sichang's suggestion and forced the "Liao salary" with Chongzhen for three years.But how did he know that if he increased three cents of silver per mu, he would dare to add one or two per mu.The higher the salary, the more thieves and bandits in the world, and the countdown to the demise of the Ming Dynasty began.

　The second master "Zijinliang" finally lived up to expectations and disappeared, leaving a mess for the protagonist.The next step is to see how the protagonist's methods are, whether he can clean up the old rivers and mountains, and the carp leaps over the dragon's gate.

　　In addition, according to history, most of Zijinliang's men joined Li Zicheng's command, and some of them should have followed Gao Yingxiang, Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai.It's just that there is a shortage of relevant historical materials, so the author simply regards Zuo Jinwang He Jin and Ge Liyan He Yilong as Zijin Liang's subordinates.

　　In history, after the death of Zijin Liang, the rebel army was truly leaderless.According to textual research, the so-called "Xingyang League" did not exist at all, which was also one of the important reasons for the successive defeats of the rebels.
