Eighth year of Chongzhen
Chapter 635
Chapter 635
Seeing that Xu Youcheng hesitated for a long time, and finally agreed to his request, Fang Wen felt very relieved, and then the two discussed again on how to proceed, and Fang Wen got up and left contentedly.
After taking a few steps out of the gate of the Thousand Households, Fang Wen suddenly and keenly noticed that there were many hidden eyes watching him in the streets and alleys.
He suddenly realized that these must have been sent by the gentry in Suzhou City to inquire about the situation. Because he was afraid of the captain on duty at the gate, he hid in the distance and waited and watched.
Responding quickly, Fang Wen stopped immediately, and his face became serious in an instant.
He first looked up at the sky in a daze for a while, then he pretended to shake his head and sighed, then slowly turned around and looked up and down at the office of the Weisuo office, then flicked his sleeves and walked towards the official sedan chair parked on one side, where the housekeeper was waiting. Opening the sedan chair curtain, Fang Wen bowed and got into the sedan chair, and then the four official sedan chairs set off unsteadily.
The school lieutenant on duty at the gate of the guardhouse looked at Fang Wen's series of inexplicable actions, and felt a little surprised in his heart: The magistrate had a relaxed expression just now, why did he suddenly change his face?
This official really changed his face like flipping a book.
The housekeepers and servants sent by each household who were secretly watching Fang Wen scattered away after seeing Fang Wen leaving.
After Fang Wen returned to the government office, he immediately sent the housekeeper to call Ren Yuanshan to the study in the back house.
"Old Ren, my official intention was to use Jin Yiwei's sharp blade to intimidate those who refused to obey the imperial court's orders. I didn't expect Xu Youcheng to wantonly get involved in the matter of exposing the post this time. If the factory guards are allowed to act recklessly , then the gentry in Suzhou will be doomed.
Liu Fanruo, a high-ranking official with four ranks, can take it as soon as he wants, who else dares to say that he can get over it? "
Fang Wen's face was heavy, and there was a sense of helplessness in his tone.
"Then what should we do?
Fu Zun has been in Suzhou Mansion for two years. You should know that these big gentry families do not ignore the imperial court as nothing. Our Suzhou Mansion pays the highest taxes every year. There was some pain between them, and I just wanted to take the opportunity to vent. If they were punished for treason, the officials would feel wronged for them!
Fu Zun, at the critical moment, as the chief official of Suzhou, you have to find a way to stop them, otherwise our official reputation will be completely ruined among the scholars! "
Ren Yuanshan had been working in Suzhou for a long time, and he was very close to some gentry on a daily basis. Hearing what Fang Wen said, Ren Yuanshan couldn't help feeling a little anxious.
This matter cannot be expanded without limit.
If the gentry who was friendly with him was unfortunately taken into the factory guard prison by the factory guard Luo Zhi, if he were to be lifted out, then yellow mud would fall into his crotch—it was either shit or shit.
"My official's departure was discussed with Xu Youcheng, trying to persuade him to give up his involvement and only punish the culprit.
At the beginning, he also insisted on refusing to do so, hoping to get the capital for promotion from this matter, but after the official realized that his actions might undermine the great policy of the Holy Spirit, Xu Youcheng relaxed his attitude, but in the end he still did not let go.
On the way back, the officer thought about it for a while, and felt that this matter should be started from two places, and perhaps gratifying results will be achieved. However, this matter still needs to be worked out by you. If you can continue If there is something to be gained from the things that come down, then there is a lot to do in this matter! "
Fang Wen first explained the result of going to the Qianhu Office today, and then looked at Ren Yuanshan, and told about his plan to get the big gentry in Suzhou City to sign a guarantee.
"Fu Zun is really clever! This strategy is indeed very promising! I think that as long as you can ensure that you will not be implicated in the conspiracy, most of the gentry in Suzhou Mansion are still enlightened!
The next official is going to call the relevant people to negotiate with him! "
Ren Yuanshan pondered for a while, and felt that Fang Wen's method should be the best strategy for the moment, as long as he didn't involve people he knew well, then he wouldn't be deeply involved and end up in an unwarranted disaster.
"Old Ren, we are not outsiders, so I want to tell you something from the bottom of my heart.
As long as the imperial decree arrives, and my Suzhou government can take the lead in such a major event as the gentry's one-body payment of food, then your name and mine will definitely be honored. I don't think I will stay here for long, and I will be the magistrate of Suzhou. . . . "
In order to maximize Ren Yuanshan's enthusiasm and efficiency, Fang Wen threw out a big cake without losing the opportunity.
"What did the Fu Zun say, it is my duty to do my duty for the Holy Majesty, and to do errands for the court, and I don't even think about promotion!
The mansion is honored and seated, and the official will go! "
Ren Yuanshan suppressed his joy, expressed his attitude with righteous words, then got up and left quickly.
In the next few days, Ren Yuanshan successively called together the most prominent gentry households in Suzhou City to attend the meeting, presented the facts and reasoned, tried his best to persuade the gentry to recognize the situation, and never make mistakes, and finally ended up losing money ending.
During the period, although many gentry were shaken by Ren Yuanshan’s rhetoric because of fear, there were still some people who could not accept the fact of allowing others to rob their own money, and cited various facts about how the emperors of the Ming Dynasty treated the gentry well. , and started a heated debate with Ren Yuanshan.
Ren Yuanshan's persuasion was fruitless, and he wanted to get up and leave several times in anger, but because he considered that he might be involved in it, he finally endured it.
Just when the two sides fell into a stalemate after several meetings, the cruel reality that crushed the last sliver of fantasy of the gentry arrived.
After receiving the imperial decree to escort the offenders of Songjiang Mansion's attacking officials to the downtown areas of Susongchang's prefectures and behead them, teams of Jin Yiwei each escorted a hundred or dozens of criminals to various cities, and in the downtown areas, they sent them to various cities. People big and small had their heads chopped off in public.
All of a sudden, Su Songchang had a mountain of spectators in the cities of the three prefectures. As the beheading officer issued orders one after another, blood flowed into rivers in every downtown area in an instant. Under the impact of the strong bloody smell, many people fainted on the spot in fright, and some Individuals who are timid even become incontinent due to fright.
After witnessing or hearing this tragic scene, all the gentry in Suzhou City were terrified, and then when Ren Yuanshan convened another meeting, they happily signed the prepared documents. .
It's no wonder they aren't afraid.
Gu Lvxu's surnamed maritime merchant on Thursday is well-known in the Jiangnan area, no matter in terms of family background or wealth.
The gentry in Suzhou Mansion weighed each other out of fear, from the four surnamed sea merchants to the most recent Liu Canjing, which one is not light, but what happened in the end?
In front of the handle of the knife, all the fame and wealth, the money of the mansion, are of no use.
These people's old disciples, relatives and friends, after their incident, who will speak for them?
Conspiracy is a basket, you can put everything in it.
Who dares to be accused of this heinous crime?
No matter how close people are usually, when they hear this name, they want to break up all ties with them immediately, for fear that they will be implicated in it, and their families will be ruined.
Let’s just follow it, what should we do?
