Eighth year of Chongzhen

Chapter 607 In the name of a thief
After exiting the palace under the surveillance of the palace guards, Ruan Jiansu immediately rushed to the Jinyiwei Luoyang Qianhu Office without stopping, and was going to discuss with Qianhu Chu Guoyong how to deal with it next.

Today's scene was not beyond Ruan Jiansu's and Chu Guoyong's expectations. It was also agreed between the two of them to inquire about the response of Prince Fu's Mansion first.

"This matter is a bit tricky. The imperial decree didn't say that we should use force, but only ordered us to take the land deed booklet and verify the details of the acres occupied by the palace, and use this as evidence to collect rent.

But if you don't move, how can you get these dozens of boxes of land deeds?
Difficult!It's really difficult!

Old Ruan, you are a scholar, you read a lot, and you have a lot more insight than this rough man, can you come up with a solution? "

After hearing Ruan Jiansu's brief recounting of what happened in Fu Wang's Mansion today, Chu Guoyong suddenly felt dizzy.

It's not a last resort in this matter, and absolutely can't be forced.

Because this is the vassal king, the blood of the Tian family, and the Jinyi army belongs to the Tian family, no one dares to use force against these vassals.Especially Fu Wang, who is a real pro-vassal, this is the emperor's uncle.

If you really want to do that, even if the matter is done, it will be taboo by the Tian family in the end.

Emperor Baobuqi became irritable one day, when he thought that someone dared to use force to attack his relatives, maybe one day he would dare to attack himself, so why should such audacious people be kept?

This kind of ending can be imagined with a little use of the brain. No matter how loyal Ruan Jiansu and Chu Guoyong were to the emperor, they would not dare to use their wealth and life to test it.

But since the emperor gave it to him, if he didn't do it, it would be a failure, and if he couldn't do it, he would be dereliction of duty.

"Brother Chu is right! This matter is really tricky! After all, King Fu is a vassal, not comparable to those collateral vassals of King Zhou and King Qin!
I have also carefully considered many strategies along the way, but in the end I got nothing! "

Facing Chu Guoyong's compliments, Ruan Jiansu was heartbroken and at the same time helpless. After pondering for a while, he still shook his head and smiled wryly, replying helplessly.

"These suzerains and vassals are also true. Which mansion does not have millions of households and tens of thousands of acres of fertile land? But in the past ten years, in order to raise money and food to suppress thieves and calm the people, the Holy One has spent so much effort to make the Ming Dynasty stable today. Which one of these pro-vassals thinks?" For the sake of relatives, have you donated a penny to the Holy Majesty?
X's!
Now it's just asking them to pay some rent and taxes, each one of them is like asking for their own lives, it's really fucking nothing! "

Chu Guoyong stood up irritably, and cursed angrily while pacing in the hall.

"Brother Chu, be careful! The current plan is to find ways to complete the tasks assigned by the Holy Majesty, and it is useless to speak more complaining words!

Besides, I estimate that the situation in other places will not be much better than ours, so why should Brother Chu worry about his family's future? "

Ruan Jiansu stroked the short beard under his chin, while thinking of countermeasures while comforting Chu Guoyong, he was secretly cursing these moths of the country in his heart.

"That's true! Since Prince Fu's Mansion can be so overbearing, other vassals will not be too talkative!
Now it's best if one place can figure out a way to solve this problem, then it's best to implement it in other places!However, in that case, the first achievement is great!

How can this be good! "

Chu Guoyong stopped and turned back to the chair to comfort himself, but at the same time, he immediately realized that if someone made such a contribution, then under the joy of Longyan, the promotion is certain, and he can only watch on his side. Pulled down, the mood that had just improved suddenly became extremely bad.

Ruan Jiansu's mood is not like this?

As a native of the capital, his family background is quite good, but he has suffered repeated setbacks in his fame and reputation. He is still a juren in his late forties, and he didn't get any official position before entering the clan's mansion.

It was only because of the good relationship with Gong Yonggu that he was appointed as the Experience Department in the Jinzong Mansion last year. Although it was only an official position of the seventh rank, it also made him extremely gratified.

Ruan Jiansu knew in his heart that if he wanted to make further progress in his official career, he had to show some political achievements, so that Gong Yonggu could speak hard when recommending himself to the emperor, otherwise he could only live in this leisurely place in this life. I've been messing around in the yamen all my life.

And this errand is a perfect opportunity.

Ruan Jiansu, as a conscientious scholar, fully agrees with the emperor taking his own relatives.

It is well known to the world that the vassals eroded the body of the Ming Dynasty, but the emperors of the Ming Dynasty all adhered to the tradition of concealing relatives and relatives, and they have always treated it with an attitude of turning a blind eye and listening to it, fearing that it will be killed by millions of people, and they will never hear it for the rest of their lives. Unseen relatives cursed.

But today's actions are completely different from those of any king.

In the past few years, Zhou Fan was first forced to donate his own land, and then the King of Chu was expelled from the clan, and then the ban and support of the Ming clan below the county king were decreed, so that most of the burden of the imperial court for 200 years was finally relieved.

The purpose of the various measures implemented in the past few years is actually very clear, that is, to strengthen the country and benefit the people.

Ruan Jiansu, who was a bystander, saw this very clearly.

From the eighth year of Chongzhen to the present, the Ming Dynasty is advancing steadily with an unprecedented attitude. Today's policy and strategies have surpassed everyone's cognition, and have never appeared in history books.

History is not without a benevolent monarch who loves the people, but like today, there is no one who values ​​the people of the world more than the family of heaven.

The emperor seemed out of this world.

Ruan Jiansu sometimes had such a strange thought in his mind, but he extinguished this thought that could scare him to death in an instant.

"Brother Chu, I suddenly thought of a strategy, but I don't know what the risks are. Why don't I tell you about it?"

After a long silence, Ruan Jiansu spoke suddenly.

"What strategy? Old Ruan, tell me!"

Chu Guoyong, who was depressed, suddenly lit up when he heard the words, and then leaned forward, looking at Ruan Jiansu with expectant eyes.

"Right now, Prince Fu's mansion is relying on the unknown group of armed guards. If these people lose their power to resist, then Prince Fu's mansion will be like a beast without minions, and it will not be left to the discretion of the local government. "

What Ruan Jiansu said was indeed the crux of the problem.

If it wasn't for these guards at King Fu's mansion, no matter how tough King Fu is, when the time comes, Jin Yiwei will go in with a group of people, arrest King Fu and others, and then snatch the land deeds from the mansion and hand them over to the Yamen of the prefect of Luoyang. During the harvest season, the Luoyang Mansion will arrange for people to go to the Zhuangzi under the name of King Fu to collect the rent, and the Mansion of King Fu has no resistance at all.

For civil servants all over the world, this is a good opportunity to become famous.

Being able to collect rent from the fields of the suzerain vassals is a good opportunity to gain fame and make one's heart happy.

"That's true! But Lao Ruan, these guards have never been put in the eyes of my own army, but we can't rush into the palace to clean them up, so what is the difference between us and those thieves?
If it is spread, the world will laugh at it?How can there be such a saying that the emperor's own army killed the guards of the Tian family?
No way!

This is already a rebellion! "

After Chu Guoyong heard this, his mood suddenly fell again, and his leaning forward body also shrank back.

"Listen to me!

We don't need to break into the palace at all, we just need to let the people in the palace come out by themselves.

After the planning was completed, the pro-army surrounded Fu Wang's mansion in the name of a thief in the palace, and the pro-army came to catch the thief. People in the palace were only allowed to leave and not enter. Hungry bones and tendons are loose, why don't you just let it go? "

"Wonderful!
Hey!

Good for you!

I see this matter!That's it! "

After pondering for a moment, Chu Guoyong excitedly slapped the table and said loudly.

"Brother Chu can order you to prepare a number of fishing nets. If the guards of the palace rush out forcefully, they will be captured alive with fishing nets. As for what the Holy Majesty wants to do, we can just report it!"

In fact, according to the vassal rules, the vassal kings are not allowed to have armed guards, but King Fu is the most special existence among all the vassals. Under this kind of relationship between uncle and nephew, whether it is Tianqi or Chongzhen, they all adopt tolerance Attitude.

However, Ruan Jiansu had a feeling in his heart that if the armed forces of Prince Fu's Mansion could be disarmed this time, the emperor would definitely be happy to see it.

There are hundreds of people in the huge Fuwang Mansion. Although there are small granaries in the mansion, they can't support them for a few days.However, in order to solve the problem as soon as possible and win the first prize, Chu Guoyong decided to be more ruthless.

"When the preparations are ready, someone will send someone into the mansion at night, first burn down the granary in the mansion, and then just seal the palace in the name of taking a thief!"

　Thanks shajia for the reward.
