Crazy at the end of the Ming Dynasty

At the junction of Runing Mansion and Nanyang Mansion, on a remote mountain, there is a temple.The presiding officer of the temple can also be said to be the head of the family whose surname is Mou.He is the cleric of the Holy Spirit Society.Therefore, the believers of the Holy Spirit Society call him Master Mou.

The origin and origin of Grand Master Mou are all myths and legends anyway, but in the final analysis, there is one point: this Grand Master Mou is the son of Buddha.

Speaking of which, we should understand.The Holy Spirit Society is a branch of the White Lotus Sect, and Master Mou is the leader of this branch.

In fact, the teachings of the various branches of the White Lotus Sect remain the same, that is: a person claims to be the son of the Buddha, and first begins to give some small favors to the common people to gain prestige.Then began to cheat money and se.In the end, the believers were encouraged to rebel.And he himself will be the son of heaven.People sighed: After all, this Buddha is not as good as the sky.

It is now the fourth day since Wu Shigong returned to Qianhusuo Fortress.And on this day, Grandmaster Mou also got the news that at the junction of Guide and Jining, a sub-helm of their Holy Spirit Society was washed by the officers and soldiers.Therefore, Master Mou immediately summoned all the elders and helmsmen of the Holy Spirit Society to discuss the situation.

After hearing the news.The elders and helmsmen of the Holy Spirit Society immediately divided into two factions.

One school of opinion is that this is just an accidental event.It must be that the sub-rudder has no eyesight and provoked the officers and soldiers, so he was washed.At present, the Holy Spirit Society has not been exposed, otherwise, the officers and soldiers would have already begun to cleanse the Holy Spirit Society in various places.Therefore, the Holy Spirit will have to look at the situation before speaking.

The other faction's opinion is: the Holy Spirit Society is in Guide Mansion, and there have been two setbacks recently.In addition to the baptism of the sub-helm this time, in the past few days, several backbones of the Holy Spirit Society who encouraged the people were beheaded by the officers and soldiers for public display.And these two incidents were all done by a thousand households under Gui Dewei.Therefore, there is no guarantee that Qianhu has discovered some clues of the Holy Spirit Society.Therefore, a rebellion should be raised immediately.

At the end of the debate, it was the words of a close friend of Grand Master Mou that touched Grand Master Mou's heart.He said: "Whether the government and the army discover it or not, the time for rebellion is now ripe. Since the beginning of the year, there has not been a single drop of rain, and this year many places will have no crops. And now it has reached the time when the crops are not harvested. Many people's homes , have run out of food."

"Now, as long as Grand Master ascends to the top, the common people are not allowed to follow and revolt? At that time, Grand Master will be the emperor, and we are all heroes of the founding of the country. Let's eat delicious food and drink spicy food together, and live a good life .”

The words of that confidant immediately moved Master Mou's heart.Master Mou had long wanted to take off his cassock and replace it with a dragon robe.Therefore, Grand Master Mou immediately ordered: let these elders and rudder masters return to their own territory as soon as possible to prepare, and ten days later, they will rebel together.

Wu Shigong didn't know at all, because of his two mistakes, the Holy Spirit Society was about to rebel.He is now receiving an inexplicable debt collector.

On this day, Wu Shigong received a report from Chang Meng, saying that several people who claimed to be the governor's office in Henan came to Wu Shigong.Wu Shigong was baffled by these visitors.

Although, Wu Shigong, the agent of thousands of households, is under the supervision of the governor of Henan.However, the official ranks of the two of them are too far apart.This is like the situation in modern times when a provincial governor suddenly sends someone to a county to find the county's armed minister.

Wu Shigong invited them in at a loss.The person in the lead introduced himself: His surname is Ling, and he is the teacher of the governor of Henan.I came to Wu Shigong for something important.

After letting everything go, Master Ling gave Wu Shigong a letter and an IOU of 5000 taels.

It turned out that this matter had to start from the beginning again.Didn't Wu Shigong become a son-in-law at that time, and his father-in-law Xue Lian later settled three official positions for the Wu family?In addition to the seventh brother Wu Shili who is now working as a clerk in the Ministry of Punishment, have the two other elder brothers gone out to be officials?This letter was written by one of Wu Shigong's Juren elder brothers.And that IOU was also owed by him.

Wu Shigong's Juren brother is his fifth brother, named Wu Shiwen.At that time, Wu Shiwen saw that his Juren brother chose to go to Jiangnan to be the county magistrate, and he thought about it: Although Jiangnan is rich, the county magistrate is the second in command in the county after all, and he has little local prestige.

Therefore, Wu Shiwen chose to be a county magistrate in Guizhou.Wu Shigong thinks this way: county magistrates in poor places do not necessarily earn less than county magistrates in rich places.Besides, after becoming a county magistrate, he would be the real emperor of the land in this county.

In a word, Wu Shiwen wants both material civilization and spiritual civilization to be tough.

But at that time, why was there a vacancy for a county magistrate in Guizhou?On the one hand, of course, this is a poor area for young and old, and Jinshi are not very willing to come to this place to be an official.On the other hand, the She'an Rebellion just happened here, and the situation is quite chaotic.

However, Wu Shiwen is not worried about unrest.Because in his mind, the She'an Rebellion has been quelled.For a period of time, it should be said that Guizhou is quite safe.

But Wu Shiwen didn't expect that the She'an Rebellion never subsided at all, it just came to an end temporarily.When Wu Shiwen first took office, the situation in Guizhou was fairly stable.However, after more than a year of stability, the She'an Rebellion broke out again.

A few months ago, the She'an rebels attacked Wu Shiwen's county.Wu Shiwen did not have the slightest determination to live and die with the city.Immediately abandon the city and flee.At this time, no matter what material civilization and spiritual civilization are concerned, save your life first.So, Wu Shiwen ran to Fucheng where he was in one breath.

Fortunately, that prefecture city was strong and there were many defenders, which finally stopped the She'an rebels.After the time is free, the Fu Zun will settle accounts with Wu Shiwen.

Although it is no longer the early years of the Ming Dynasty, officials who abandoned the city and fled will be beheaded for questioning.However, this charge is solid.It can be strictly enforced and Wu Shiwen beheaded, or just Wu Shiwen can be dismissed from office.It depends on Wu Shiwen's life.

In the final analysis, it depends on how much money Wu Shiwen gave to the Fu Zun.Of course Wu Shiwen was very knowledgeable, and immediately negotiated the price with the mansion master.However, Wu Shiwen fled in a hurry, and he didn't have so much money around him.The Fu Zun was also straightforward and asked Wu Shigong to write a 5000 tael IOU.

The mansion is not afraid of Wu Shiwen's repudiation.Wu Shiwen can escape, but the Gongshun Mansion cannot escape.

However, the Fu Zun didn't want to go to the capital to ask for debts.On the one hand, there are no relatives and friends of the Fu Zun in the capital; on the other hand, there are many people in the capital, and the Fu Zun doesn't want to let too many people know about it.So he asked Wu Shiwen: Are there any relatives or friends who are officials in Henan?Because, the elder brother of the Fuzun is the governor of Henan.

At this time, in order to save his life, Wu Shiwen had to grab a straw.He remembered that when he was reading the residence newspaper, he seemed to have seen his fourteenth younger brother Wu Shigong go to Henan to act as an agent for thousands of households, so he reported Wu Shigong's name.

The next thing is of course: the mansion asked Wu Shiwen to write a letter to Wu Shigong, and sent the letter and the IOU to his elder brother, the governor of Henan.The governor of Henan sent Master Ling to Wu Shigong to ask for debts.

After understanding the whole process of the matter, Wu Shigong was dumbfounded, he didn't expect that when he was sitting at home, disasters would come to his door.

As for Wu Shiwen's matter, since it came to Wu Shigong, Wu Shigong couldn't ignore it.Don't say that the governor of Henan is his boss, boss... his boss.Even if the fifth brother Wu Shiwen treated him badly in the Wu Mansion, Wu Shigong would not be able to ignore the fifth brother Wu Shiwen.After all, they are brothers, blood is thicker than water.

I still pinch my nose and admit it.Wu Shigong took out 5000 taels of silver and handed it to Master Ling.But in this way, the cash around Wu Shigong was completely gone except for the 1000 taels of gold.As for the goods obtained from the robbers, Wu Shigong still wanted Yuan Xingshan to transport them to Jining and sell them for a good price.

But when Wu Shigong was in such a bad mood, the county magistrate Qi sent someone to ask Wu Shigong to go to the county government to discuss matters.

That magistrate Qi is not a person who does not do things.Seeing the severity of the drought, I thought about asking the big households in the county to donate some food and set up a few porridge farms to help the victims.

After Wu Shigong arrived at the county government office, when he heard about this, he became angry.These officials really think that they are Tang monk meat, and everyone wants to take a bite.Besides, Wu Shigong had already donated [-] shi of grain when he was running the charity warehouse.Therefore, Wu Shigong flatly rejected Qi County Magistrate.

Naqi county magistrate was actually in a bad mood at this time.I was about to be transferred, but I didn't expect to encounter such an unlucky thing as a drought.But now, Wu Shigong, who has [-] households, doesn't give him face as the county magistrate.

As a result, both parties, who were very angry, quarreled on the spot in the county government office.Anyway, it was Wu Shigong as the player of the wild school, and magistrate Qi as the player of the elegant school, and the two fought evenly.In the end, the two broke up unhappy.
