Mixed with salted fish in Hongwudang

Chapter 420 Who Is The Traitor?

Zhu Yunxi was entrenched in Jinan Prefecture like a huge spider, and controlled all the prefectures and counties in Shandong Province through Jinyiwei and Xingwuwei.

Whenever he issued an order, he could expedite it through eight hundred miles and convey it to every place at the fastest speed.

For special places such as Prince Qi's Mansion, Prince Lu's Mansion, and Yanshenggong Mansion, there are special personnel to coordinate with each other to ensure that word-for-word transmission is made.

In the Qi Wang Mansion and Lu Wang Mansion, after the property was listed in the tenant's name, Zhu Yunxi immediately issued a new hand order - buy land!
As soon as the news came out, the entire Shandong area was in an uproar.

Everyone thought that Zhu Yunxi had introduced a series of measures to limit land mergers.But who would have thought that the dragon slayer would eventually become a dragon, and his final goal would be to buy land!
However, this made many big landlords feel a lot easier.

It is best for the emperor's grandson to be selfish. If he is as unselfish as the old emperor, then life will be a sad one.

After Gao Ming learned of Zhu Yunxie's new order, he didn't understand it very much. He even had a big fight with Zhu Yunxie, thinking that he had misjudged the person.

Zhu Yunxi didn't bother to explain to old man Gao, and still went his own way and asked Jin Yiwei to go to various places to collect land.

For ordinary farmers, whoever pays taxes is paid, so they don't have so much patriotism.

Kong Na bowed his hands towards the crowd when he heard the words.

"big liar!"

"Look and sit!"

"Yan Shenggong, whether our Ming Dynasty culture can continue, I will leave it to you!"

Kong Na saw the tears of the family members crying, and wept bitterly with snot and tears.

"Don't worry, everyone!"

Kong Na, the head of civil servants, has such an attitude, and the Shandong officials in the capital are even more furious.

From Ben's heart, Lao Zhu is very supportive of Dasun.

"Confucius, what do you think is an act that harms the people?"

Kong Na heard the words and asked carefully.

Kong Na said Zhu Yunxie's five bad things in one breath, and finally turned around to speak "fair words" for Zhu Yunxie.

"There is no food left in the palace today!"

"how?"

Because once these vassal kings are allowed to mess around, coupled with the local gentry and officials messing around, the source of Ming's finances and taxes will inevitably dry up.

"By the way, Lord Yan Sheng came here this time, it must be because of what our grandson did in Shandong, right?"

However, there is nothing wrong with shrinking, they can only watch helplessly.

Everyone heard that you look at me, I look at you, no one believes that the old man can give them any explanation.

King Qi, who was kneeling on the ground sadly, heard his second brother mention him, and hurriedly crawled to Lao Zhu and kowtowed.

"Yan Shenggong said it well!"

"You left Daming Jiangshan to him, why is he still grabbing that one-acre three-point land from us!"

The grandson of the emperor said that no matter how many people there are in the family, the tax will only be collected according to the amount of land rented and planted, and no other money will be charged!
With such preferential policies, the common people no longer thought about being self-cultivated farmers, and all went to work as tenants for the emperor's grandson.

No interest!

Before Lao Zhu met Kong Na, he also made some preparations and ordered someone to set up a tea table and two chairs in the hall in advance.

It's just that the court has been replaced by the emperor's grandson, and the rest are just changing the soup but not the medicine.

Hearing this, Old Zhu took a sip of the teacup, and instead of answering Kong Na directly, he asked a rhetorical question.

Old Zhu laughed loudly when he heard this.

"Are you going to kill your wife and son?"

Therefore, Zhu Yunxi's troubles had relatively little impact on their family.

However, the reason why they are so flocking to them is that the conditions offered by the emperor's grandson are really good.

With the help of the little eunuch, Kong Na sat on the chair next to half of his buttocks. He held the tea cup in one hand and tasted it carefully with the other.

"Your Majesty, although the emperor's grandson has these five evils, in my humble minister's opinion, the emperor's grandson cannot be blamed."

After Lao Zhu dismissed the group of vassal princes, he ushered in the civil official group headed by Kong Na.

"The emperor's grandson, officials and gentry, and the royal family pay food together, this is two bad things!"

No matter how awesome the feudal king is, he is still a king, but the grandson of the emperor is going to be the emperor in the future, and he happens to be in charge of these shameless princes.

Wang Dali purchased a complete set of Minggang farm tools in one go. When he brought the new farm tools home and carefully tore off the oil paper on them, he saw the shiny black farm tools and the sharp steel mouths. In my hand, I have a sense of surging in the world.

When Conner heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

"May I ask Your Majesty, do you think the abuse of the people by the emperor's grandson in Shandong can be called a benevolent government?"

What's more, he still has shares in Sanwei Bookstore. It is said that there is a lot of income every year, which is higher than the previous two items.

Therefore, he refused the audience of other officials, and only let Kong Na be taken in.

When the others heard that the emperor refused to see them, although they were upset, they didn't dare to show it on their faces, and they just kept cheering Kong Na up.

The princes also united and rushed into the palace to cry to Lao Zhu.

"Good water!"

However, as Zhu Yunxie followed up with more and more actions, the farmers who had taken refuge in Yanshenggong's mansion turned their heads and hugged the emperor's grandson's thighs one after another, which caused the financial resources of Yanshenggong's mansion to shrink sharply.

When Lao Zhu heard this, he immediately became angry, stomped down the steps, and kicked Zhu Shi out.

It wasn't until Kong Na finished the full set of etiquette that Lao Zhu waved to Kong Na enthusiastically.

Thinking of this, Kong Na felt a lot more relaxed while drinking tea.

When all the feudal kings heard this, they quickly put their tails between their legs and ran away in a hurry. Even the unscrupulous King Qin didn't dare to stay any longer. He picked up the gold book on the ground and ran away with everyone.

"You will probably not be able to use the characters you have worked so hard to arrange for King Qin's lineage. When my son returns to Xi'an, he will call all the youngsters in the family and let them bleed one by one!"

Moreover, what reassures them the most is that the emperor grandson said in black and white that as long as the peasant wants to redeem the land, no matter how many years have passed, he can redeem the land from him at the original price and continue to be his own farmer !

"Your eldest grandson cheated us of all the property we worked so hard to buy. How can we live in the future, woo woo woo..."

Isn't it just a piece of cake and a whip?

Hearing the cries all over the room, Lao Zhu fell into irritability for a while, and even developed a lot of resentment towards his eldest grandson.

Although he can't use some benefits, he has to fight for them!

"Yan Shenggong is here, hurry up and have a drink with us!"

Wang Dali's family also happily sold their family's three-acre paddy field to the grandson of the emperor, and then rented another [-] acres of land from the grandson of the emperor, planning to do a big job in the coming year!
But that’s not to mention, seeds, agricultural tools and other things can also be purchased with low-interest loans from the emperor’s grandson!

"Father, my subjects can't survive!"

What's more, they ran over with the land of King Qi and King Lu to "contribute".

"Good work!"

"You guys go back first, we must teach that Ni Sun severely, and we must give you an explanation!"

"It is Yan Shenggong, the head of the Ming Dynasty, I admire you!"

"Get out now!"

Relatively speaking, Yansheng Gong's mansion is still relatively peaceful. Their family did not believe in Zhu Yunxi's evil from the very beginning. In addition, their family adopted the donation system. Once the household falls under the name of their Yanshenggong Mansion, they can escape some corvee and the like.

"How can anyone bully orphans and widows like this? I'm going to Beijing to file a lawsuit against the imperial court, blah blah..."

"Now you carry a knife and kill us first!"

This grandson can't wait for a few more years, so he has to do it in such a hurry?

"Since His Majesty has invited you, I would rather obey your orders than to be respectful!"

Kong Na bowed to Lao Zhu.

As a result, all the farmers sold their land to the emperor's grandson one after another and became honorable tenants.

what should we do?

Seeing that everyone was not moving, Lao Zhu said angrily.

After all, both Qi Wangfu and Lu Wangfu didn't do anything, so what can they do with Yan Shenggong?

Lao Zhu didn't want to see him at first, but Yan Sheng Gong Kong Na was the head of civil servants, so he should give some face.

"Father, it's not that your son wants to anger you on purpose, it's that your grandson is too shameful!"

"The emperor's grandson forcibly buys the land of the common people. This is the three evils!"

"The emperor's grandson forcibly occupied most of the land in Shandong and devoured the source of the court's taxes. These are the five evils!"

This is great news. As soon as this news came out, the whole Shandong was in a state of excitement. All the people who had land under their names took their vouchers and went to the offices of the emperor's grandson in a certain place to deal with land transactions.

"Even if this old man is desperate for this life, he must let His Majesty take back the emperor's grandson's reckless life, and return the people of Shandong to a bright future!"

"All the land in Shandong is his. You let the sons of Lao Qi and Lao Shi's family eat and drink whatever they want in the future, woo woo woo..."

"He first said that everyone would be taxed. As soon as my family put the land under the tenant's name, he forcibly bought it from those unscrupulous people!"

However, the emperor grandson is different.

What's more, the emperor's grandson bought the land for real money!

"fraud!"

"Yan Shenggong can speak!"

If someone else came to take over the land, they would definitely not dare to encroach on the property of the "royal family" and take the property of the royal family as their own.

The reason why he came to challenge the emperor was that he was sure that the emperor would not support the emperor's grandson's perverse actions.

"Father, I don't want this thing anymore, I will give it back to you now!"

"Father wants to be the master for his son. His son has been in Shandong for so many years, and he managed to buy some property, but Zhu Yunxie tricked him away!"

In fact, since Lao Zhu knew the government orders of Ni Sun in Shandong, he knew what Ni Sun An wanted.

"Come, come!"

After Yan Shenggong went through the kneeling and worship ceremony just now, his anger has been reduced by a few points.

"Zhu Yunxi's remediation is the land of Shandong, what does it have to do with your Xi'an?"

Seeing his father's anger, Zhu Xi fell to his knees with a plop, and cried while hugging his father's thigh.

In fact, Zhu Gui didn't care much about the land rent. In addition, he hadn't become a feudal clan yet, so he didn't have much land under his name.

When Zhu Xi and Zhu Yu cried, all the vassals in the entire hall cried together, and even the thirteenth-year-old Zhu Gui pretended to wipe away his tears.

Now the emperor's attitude made him not know where to start.

Tea is average, water is even more average.

After learning that his grandson, Kong Yanli, still ran to the palace every day, and went to Wenhua Palace to work for Zhu Yunxi's grandson, the old man was so angry that he ordered someone to tie him up, and locked him at home and refused to let him go anywhere.

Zhu Xi threw the golden book on the ground, pointed at the golden book and said.

Although the land price is a bit low, it's better than being robbed by the prince's mansion and wealthy gentry for nothing, right?
Moreover, the people in Jinyiwei are very loyal. If you sold the land at a low price before, as long as you have a contract and a certificate, they will come to you and ask for it for you. Not to mention helping you redeem it at a low price, you will be allowed to continue selling it to the emperor's grandson.

But relying on the share dividends of Minggang Chamber of Commerce and Jinling Coal Industry, he has an annual income of 20 taels, which is enough for him to support his family.

The reason why the emperor made tea for himself was probably because he also felt that the emperor's grandson's move was a little too much, and he meant to admit his mistake to himself, right?

"Bastard!"

Renting the land from the emperor's grandson, no exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes are required, and only [-]% of the land rent is collected every year, and the job is over!
Although the land rent is much higher than the government's tax, he has a lot less exorbitant taxes and poll tax.

But since he became a feudal king, he had to be consistent with the feudal king.

When Kong Na entered the hall, Lao Zhu was sitting on the tea table making tea. When he saw Kong Na coming in to salute, Lao Zhu did not show any sign, but still poured the tea on his own, as if he had not seen Kong Na .

However, the Yanshenggong Mansion still informed Yanshenggong Kong Na in the capital of the injustice encountered by the family.

However, these vassal kings in front of them are also their own species, so they have to think of a way out for them.

As long as the emperor doesn't approve of the behavior of the grandson of the emperor, then Daming can still be saved!
“Good tea!”

"Hahaha!"

"Your Majesty is truly immortal!"

"Your Majesty, it is not good for the emperor's grandson to oppress the royal family."

Princess Qi also hurriedly ordered her younger brother to write a letter to King Qi, asking King Qi to present His Majesty in the capital, crying about the injustice she had encountered.

In fact, this is also one of the purposes of Lao Zhu's arrangement, to let Lao Kongtou get rid of his anger and know his identity.

"Those unscrupulous people are selling my land. It's the land my son keeps to support your grandson and great-grandson, woo woo woo..."

He figured it out, the grandson of the emperor had no good intentions!
According to the tossing method of the emperor's grandson, Daming must die like the second generation of Qin Dynasty!

They searched their brains one by one to write letters, impeaching the emperor's grandson for occupying the people's land, forcing the people to sell their land, and buying farm tools and seeds for the workshop under the emperor's grandson's name, causing great disasters to the people of Shandong.

But because it was brewed by the emperor himself, it has a special flavor, and there is a unique honor in it.

"Do you still want to stay in the palace to eat?"

Therefore, he can now be regarded as a small rich man among the lords of the Ming Dynasty, and he still belongs to the kind of unobtrusive.

Based on the old man's love for the Ni Sun, it is estimated that they will suffer in the end.

Only more and more self-cultivating farmers can guarantee the tax source of the Ming Dynasty and the orderly operation of the Ming court.

Relatively speaking, being able to be a tenant for the emperor's grandson is definitely the best solution.

Some people are happy and some are sad. Princess Qi Wu Shi and Princess Lu Ge Shi have already fainted on the bedside.

After accepting everyone's ecstasy soup, Kong Na walked up the steps with firm steps, and went to the strongest dragon of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang, to break his head.

"The emperor's grandson forcibly sold common people's agricultural tools and seeds. This is the four evils!"

At least it is far worse than the spring water he transported from Baotu Spring.

Compared with the cries of ordinary vassal kings, Qin Wang Zhu Xi was the most amazing, and he entered the palace directly carrying the family tree of the golden book.

He found that his previous judgment was wrong. Instead of being angry with the grandson of the emperor, the old emperor was still defending the grandson.

"The emperor's grandson is young, how can he understand the way here, he must be bewitched by the treacherous ministers around him!"

When Lao Zhu heard this, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Fortunately, this old Kongtou is not ignorant. If he really dares to speak ill of our grandson, we don't mind letting his son take the title of Lord Yansheng in advance!

"Then according to what Confucius said, who is the treacherous minister next to our grandson?"
