Jingming

Chapter 132 Son of Heaven, We Warn You
"According to the decree, 17 people, including the former governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, including criminal ministers, will immediately kill and abandon the city!"

Thousands of people empty the streets in Guangzhou today, and the grand occasion of killing Qian Ning and Jiang Bin in Beijing reappeared.

In the past, seventeen people, including the Governor of Guangdong, Guangxi, and Governor of Guangdong, kneeled in a row at the execution ground. Everyone had a wooden walnut stuffed in their mouths and their hands were tied behind their backs.

Even the executioner was very excited: Even if a high-ranking official like this committed a crime, how could he be punished locally?Which one was not sent to the capital for retrial?

But the imperial envoy has such holy family members, and His Majesty wants to use these heads to help him establish his prestige in Guangdong.

Wang Zuo appeared again, Zhang Tong stood beside him, but Shi Bao disappeared.

Seeing Zhang Fujing with a serious and majestic expression, Wang Zuo couldn't help but sigh with emotion for His Majesty's knowledge of people.

It's a tough character.

In a few months, he has become such a brave and resourceful local official from an unknown new scholar.

The more than 20 years before I failed to win the exam, I didn't waste my time thinking about it.

In Dongguan the day before yesterday, he personally went to the scene, erected a monument for the soldiers and Xiangyong who died in the first battle of Tuen Mun, and built a martyr's shrine next to it.

Both Yuan Yao and his father Yuan Guang, guarding the imperial family in Guangdong, were granted posthumous posthumous titles and posthumous official positions, and Zhang Fujing himself bestowed sacrifices on behalf of the emperor, which can be described as extremely honorable.

And the Yuan family's hereditary Zhengqianhu has been promoted to a rank, becoming a commander, and has crossed a big stage.

Another thousand dollars to buy a horse bone.

The other son of the Yuan family is Jinyiwei Baihu, and this time he will return to Beijing with Wang Zuo.

The "bandits" sent by Jinyiwei Banner School Guard Yu Wangziyan that night to loot Dongguan were naturally given to Zhang Fujing first.

At the moment in Guangdong, Zhang Fujing's prestige is rising at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Yang Shen is also in prison, he is not without emotion.

How difficult is it to climb to the position of governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, who is the second rank?If it is in Beijing, it is already a Shangshu.

In the past, what kind of high-ranking figures were they in these two provinces?
When traveling, clear the way before and after, bow your head and bow your head when you come and go, and destroy your family when you get angry.

But now they are all kneeling, and after the knife falls, everything will stop.

Hearing the cheers and applause of the people in Guangzhou, Yang Shen had a new understanding.

Leaving Yang Tinghe's asylum and coming to Guangdong, leaving the nobles of the Imperial Academy to go to this turbid stream, Yang Shen has just come into contact with the treacherous and cunning of the criminal officials in the Guangzhou government, and the shrewd and cunning of the officials.

He looked at Zhang Fujing: this is an extraordinary moment when the emperor bestows a sword, the imperial envoy is unparalleled, and all members of the two major groups are arrested.

What about on weekdays?

After being executed, Zhang Fujing came to send Wang Zuo back to Beijing.

"The Marquis of Funing has no worries?" He was worried about this.

Wang Zuo smiled: "Since Eunuch Mai is here, my mission has been completed. Zhang Futai is holding the sword bestowed by the emperor, why should he be afraid? Don't worry, His Majesty has already made arrangements."

Zhang Fujing bowed and saluted: "I have gained so much power to calm and appease in the past few days, Fujing will remember it in my heart."

"Accepting orders to do errands is a matter of duty." Wang Zuo didn't hold his posture, "The proceeds of the trial of all the criminal officials in Futai also saved me a lot of effort, so I was able to return to Beijing in advance to return to my order."

Zhang Fujing's eyes were sharp: "I'm afraid that after the changes in Guangdong and Guangxi, people in Beijing will feel uneasy."

Wang Zuo smiled nonchalantly: "Looking for clues, this time I'm only here to collect evidence. Of course, none of them can escape if they commit crimes."

Zhang Fujing showed a worried look: "This crime may not be enough for ordinary people to discuss, but it will make it difficult for Your Majesty to deal with himself."

"That's natural." Wang Zuo looked at this wise man with admiration, "It's worth saving one more. Futai and travel to Guangdong with peace of mind. A certain one is waiting in the capital to hear the good news from Futai."

After saying that, he bowed his hands and saluted, and led Zhang Ting to go north with his horse.

Five hundred Jinyiwei went south, and only 300 returned from the north.

When he arrived in front of the big army, he looked at the child who hadn't grown up yet, and asked, "What's your name?"

"Yuan Hongmao!"

Wang Zuo nodded: "Your father, Yuan Dalang, is a good man. He dared to apply to become a brave man. Your Yuan family members are also good, and I recommend you to adopt Yuan Yao to take this job. Since you have such a chance, come to Beijing first. Go study hard!"

"Boy must study hard."

In Wang Zuo's mind, he just wanted to have another companion for Lu Bing and Yan Shifan. The Jin Yiwei who returned to the capital looked at Yuan Hongmao, and felt that he was another person whose fate had been changed because of His Majesty's grace.

When he first joined Jinyiwei, he was personally brought up by the governor of Beizhen.

But no one knew that Yuan Hongmao, who was originally born in Dongguan, would not have such a changed fate.When he grows up, he will become a carpenter for a living, and many years later he has a grandson named Yuan Chonghuan.

But now, history has turned a corner.

……

"Editor Huang, do you still write "On Hai Ce" about the administration of officials?"

In the history museum next to Zuoshun Gate, Huang Zuo was ridiculed by his colleagues as soon as he entered the gate.

"I'm ignorant, that is to say, I have some shallow knowledge in the administration of officials..." Huang Zuo said in a low-key manner, and then came to his desk and continued to read the memoirs that had been repaired by this dynasty.

This is chronologically, with one month as a volume, recording the historical materials of the major events at that time.

The work of compiling "A Mirror of Loyalty of the Ming Dynasty" has officially started, and Huang Zuo has his own busy affairs.

He is much happier now, and he is very grateful to Zhang Fujing.

After the "Lianke" two important officials of the court, Zhang Fujing, who continued to associate with Huang Zuo, not only did not encounter bad luck, but instead soared into the sky and became a member of the frontier.

Therefore, the colleagues in the history museum do not avoid him as before, but often make fun of him by referring to the "On Haice" that has been hotly discussed in Beijing recently.

But Huang Zuo didn't have that kind of vigor. When he heard that Zhang Fujing personally killed the Guangdong procurator, his mouth opened wide for a long time.

That's the amiable Zhang Fujing with a smile all over his face?

Writing "On Hai Ce" is also of a mixed nature.This time, although His Majesty did not issue a task to say that everyone has to offer advice, the new head of the Academy still requires everyone in the Imperial Academy to write: If anyone is promoted because of this, then he, the new head of the Imperial Academy, must more or less take a share Kindness.

Huang Zuo didn't want that kind of good luck, he just wanted to do a good job of editing.

Feeling so envious, Huang Zuo also knew that he didn't have the ability to do it.

When Mr. Shige came back from the national policy meeting to inspect the editing progress, Huang Zuo didn't want to make mistakes first.

Concentrating on flipping through the memorabilia, looking up the records in the official memorandum of official repairs in the volume of Sapphire that I was assigned, I waited until Shi Yan came over before I knew it.

After standing over to say hello together, Shi Jue looked at him and said with a complicated expression: "Bo Huang Caibo, please hand over the excerpts that you have read to Fei Xiuzhuan."

Fei Maozhong looked at Huang Zuo in astonishment, and saw that he was a little at a loss: "Mr. Ge, but what's wrong with the report before I stepped down?"

"No, you should go to the Ministry of Officials after handing over to Fei Xiuzhuan, and take the report and go to Guangdong to take up the post." Shi Jue smiled, "I have made meritorious advice, and I moved to Guangdong to announce that the political envoy and the right councilor will be divided into Lingnan Road .Congratulations, Huang Shen."

At this moment, the envy in the eyes of the other Qingliu of the Imperial Academy in the History Museum almost overflowed.

Is Xinjun's first emperor's disciple so outrageous?
Is it such an exaggeration to go from the revision of the Hanlin Academy of the seventh rank to the right counselor of the chief envoy of the fourth rank?
Shi Jing looked around and said, "At a time when Guangdong was in an emergency, Huang Shenyi was familiar with the local conditions in Guangdong, and his policy theory in the palace examination won the emperor's admiration for the government officials. This time, the suggestions will be given to the officials in Guangdong. It is a matter of luck. Keep calm and work hard, and when the time comes, the editing will be meritorious, and everyone will have a great responsibility."

Basically most people shouted wildly in their hearts: He was born in Guangdong and has been an official in Guangdong, so he must be the second place in the new department?
Are there still few people who have experience and insights in the administration of officials?Even though the corruption cases in Guangdong and Guangxi and the corruption of officials are shocking, there is no need to be promoted so quickly!

It's all because of Liang Chu and Zhang Fujing's recommendation, right?

It's all because of his status as the emperor's disciple, right?

Is this a broom star?

So dazzling!

Everyone couldn't help but shed tears of envy in their hearts: people sit in the history museum, and good officials come from heaven.This promotion speed is no slower than Zhang Fujing!

How can he be?
Huang Zuo just accepted the envious and jealous congratulations from his colleagues in such a daze, and agreed to invite him to dinner in the evening.

Fei Maozhong fell into a deep grievance: I am the number one scholar, and my uncle is Ge Lao, but another Ge Lao's own son has also been released to become a magistrate, and I am studying history!
……

With one knife, Zhang Fujing cut out two large pieces.

Zhu Houcong's decree made countless people know that the Guangdong-Guangdong Conference is a hot spot for meritorious service.

Chen Jin's southward travel is no longer simply interpreted as a purpose to stabilize the situation, but a huge conspiracy.

But how can there be money in the possible big movements in the future?
The new law that is being tried in Guangdong has touched the nerves of too many people, both those who fear and resist, and those who are excited and want to make meritorious deeds first.

Nanzhili has the highest taxation in the country, advocating culture and education.Almost [-]% to [-]% of the national officials come from the Jiangnan Tribute Academy.

Song Chuanlin, the magistrate of Kunshan County, Suzhou Prefecture, looked at Master with burning eyes: "Have you found him?"

"I found it, is the magistrate going to summon the Mao family for interrogation?"

"Go and pass!"

Song Chuanlin straightened his official hat, eyes full of excitement.

People who are disloyal and disrespectful, what is there to fear?And the evidence is conclusive, the Mao family embezzled the people's land, and since the sufferer has been found from Jianghuai, why not take the opportunity to clear all the Mao family's land?
Xiewei will set up two more big households, and at that time a memorial will be submitted to the imperial court. He, Song Chuanlin, knows the new law, and he can go to Guangdong and Guangxi to ride the wind!

Mao Cheng, who was "sent back to his hometown with gifts", really waited for such a snob, and watched helplessly as his eldest son was summoned to the county government.

He wrote to Yang Tinghe with grief and indignation, and fell into a small lawsuit that he had dismissed before.

There are many letters to write, and many local elders to invite, but how many people will sell his face again?

Or write to Wang Shifang?Please help my in-laws?
As a result, before writing a few letters, the housekeeper ran over in a daze: "Master! Master! The shopkeeper of the grain shop and cloth shop, and many other big tenants have come. Please discuss about buying a store and a field, sir."

"Sell them all! Sell them all!" Mao Cheng didn't bother to care about such trivial matters.

Now that they have lost their official status, all the merchants and landowners who donated in the past are now talking about redemption.

There is no way for the Mao family to help them evade taxes and corvee, but this is the reality.

I said before that I would like to show some kindness and finish the agreed time limit for the lease, but now I immediately avoid it when I hear the news.

At night, his son came back in a state of humiliation: "Song Chuanlin is trying to force our Mao family to death! Report to the village that if anyone else is invaded by my Mao family to buy farmland or shops, they will all be reported! Father, We must think of a way!"

At this moment, Song Chuanlin had just sat in the sedan chair, happily preparing to drink and listen to music.

Today is the first step. First, there are conclusive evidence that the Mao family has embezzled people’s land, and then the case will be made bigger, and all the shopkeepers and landowners who contributed to the Mao family will be cleared out!
The next step will be the turn of those who have been relying on the few sixth- and seventh-rank officials in the court.Don't say it's all done, you have to spit out some, right?

That's enough.This year's autumn grain, this Kunshan county is thriving, and if there is a memorial, it will be the teacher's request to transfer him to Guangdong.

The mentor is already an old man, as long as he has some achievements, he can get things done!

Song Chuanlin got out of the sedan chair humming a little tune, looked up at the signboard of Qingyun Building not far away, with a smile on his lips.

Very windy tonight!
The next moment, he only felt a flash of light in front of his eyes, and then there was a burst of breathlessness and severe pain in his throat. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a man in black clothes and a bamboo hat running away quickly.

"There are assassins! Kill people! The county lord has been murdered!"

The magistrate is here for a banquet, how could he bring too many people?

The bearer looked in horror at Song Chuanlin, who was lying on the ground clutching his throat, and at the back of the black-clothed figure who had already run into the night, feeling at a loss for a moment.

A few days later, Yang Tinghe sighed silently looking at the angry emperor, and said: "In a few days, five magistrates in Nanzhili and Fujian, and a prefect of three prefectures, were assassinated in the street. Your Majesty , the reason why this minister urged not to rush. The story of Guangdong and Guangxi has spread throughout the provinces, and the discussion of Haice has stirred people's hearts. These nine people are either planning to use Qingzhang's land to increase the country's wealth, or they have just gone to Shulun City to open the sea. Strategies for suppressing bandits. The coastal areas are intricate and complex, Zhang Fujing's unexpected move worked, and the chaos in Nanzhili and Fujian is beginning to appear."

Shi Ping's face was livid, he knew what Yang Tinghe meant, and so did the others.

At the national policy meeting, the style of speaking is becoming more and more straightforward now, and some things are no longer so taboo.

"In the past, did the imperial court allow some local people to provoke them like this?" Zhu Houcong's voice was cold.

"Bandits, vendettas, dead soldiers, this is the result of the investigation." Wang Qiong said succinctly, "Afterwards, the black hands, or officials, or merchants, or big clans. They colluded with each other, and the officials and soldiers from all over the place made the best use of them. I don't know how to protect myself. Now, how many of them have finished their duties safely before assuming a new position? Your Majesty, ministers and others are blessed with the grace of God. Although they are working together to help His Majesty create a prosperous world through the ages, this matter cannot be ignored. Anyone with a heart knows all about it. The northern captives, the pirates, and the bandits in Guangdong and Guangxi are in chaos. Your Majesty, the tax-heavy land in the south of the Yangtze River must not be chaotic at this time."

Compared with the fiasco caused by the "as usual design" of local officials in the Tuen Mun naval battle, the naked killing of officials in Nanzhili and Fujian is a ruthless and proactive warning.

Zhang Fujing's methods in Guangdong were too ruthless, the authority given by the emperor seemed too determined, his enthronement time was too short, and the will of "On Hai Ce" also conveyed too obvious wind direction.

Now this round of warnings pinches the most important lifeblood of the ambitious emperor: money and food.

In the chaos in the south of the Yangtze River, taxes and taxes were reduced immediately.No matter how chaotic Fujian is, pirates continue to go straight to Guangdong.

In addition, the most insidious thing is: so blatantly, doesn't the emperor suspect that there are also people in the imperial study room who support, lead, and plan?

They just don't know about the "golden cup to drink with you" in the Central Palace, and they don't know that the eighteen ministers of national policy are unwilling to take the initiative to provoke the emperor Nilin.

But the "work with one heart" in Wang Qiong's mouth is only limited to the important ministers in this temporary imperial study.

After all, the emperor's magnanimity and brilliance have not yet illuminated the world.

As this matter evolves, which officials and which officials will not be implicated in the possible clearing of land, clearing and offering?
Even if the news that Liang Chu took the initiative to clean up and contribute in Guangdong came, the eighteen ministers of national policy had silently started to set an example from within their own families, but it was useless.

What is involved is the vital interests of many people.

There are 18 of them, and it is only because they are extremely human ministers, and what they care about is the posthumous name, so they are willing to be willing-at this time, willingness can be limited, and it can be commended.

In September of the golden autumn, on the eve of His Majesty's longevity, the southeast killed officials to congratulate the emperor.

Eighteen national policy ministers looked at the gloomy young emperor.

What about this time?what to do?Kill again?
