Lu Yi didn't expect that when Nanyang City was busy, there would be a murder on the street, so he hurriedly stood up and looked out the window at the street.

The shopkeeper was about to turn around and leave after serving the food, when he heard the movement, he turned around, shook his head and sighed: "It must be the conflict between Tang Wangfu and Liuyuntang again, I don't know which side will suffer this time!" ”

Lu Yi saw that on the street downstairs, there were already two groups of people in chaos, and the lively people on the street hid far away, for fear of becoming a pond fish that was affected.

In the open space next to the fight between the two groups of people, there was a person lying stunned, and there was a large pool of blood on the stone road under him, and he saw that this person was motionless, and it seemed that he had been dead for a long time.

When Lu Yi heard the words of the shopkeeper, he couldn't help but turn around, looked at him and asked suspiciously, "Liuyuntang and Tang Wangfu?" Do they often clash with each other? ”

The shopkeeper smiled bitterly: "It's not, there have been two times this month alone, and there will be casualties every time, two have died last time, and this is not another one just now." ”

He saw the suspicion in Lu Yi's eyes, so he pouted out the window and said, "Guest officer, you can take a look, the two groups of people who are fighting, is there a group of people wearing soap-bottomed red-edged clothes, wearing soap hats with red silk edges, and the weapons in their hands are all more than two-foot-long Pu knives?" The other group of people are all in tight-fitting green clothes, with white hair on their heads, and a variety of weapons in their hands? ”

When Lu Yi heard the words of the shopkeeper, he looked down, and sure enough, it was the same as what he said, as for the one lying on the ground, looking at the clothes, it turned out to be a person from Tang Wangfu!

Lu Yi couldn't help but exclaim: "Fan Liuyun is so bold, he dares to go against Tang Wangfu?" ”

The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Guest officer, you have to be careful when you speak, otherwise the people of Liuyuntang will hear you call Fan Sanye's name, but they won't be able to eat and leave." ”

Lu Yi couldn't help but sneer: "Although Fan Liuyun's name is big, he is just a local snake, but he hasn't taken him seriously yet!" ”

Seeing that Lu Yi was very angry and didn't know what to do, the shopkeeper knew that he hadn't understood the power of Liuyuntang, so he hurriedly closed the door of the private room in fright, and whispered: "Guest officer, you must know that trouble comes from the mouth!" Are you Dao Liuyuntang just the head snake of Nanyang? The background is deep, otherwise how dare you go against the people of Tang Wangfu? And don't say it's the Tang Palace, even the parents and officials of Nanyang Mansion, the prefect and the prefect, are polite to Fan Sanye! ”

Lu Yi was even more surprised, although after so many years, the strength and status of the vassal king have long been much worse than before, but after all, Tang King Zhu Qijun is a descendant of Emperor Taizu, no matter what, he is also the position of a duke, and he is still the elder brother of Emperor Yingzong in terms of generation, how could he be bullied by Liuyuntang? It's a bit weird indeed.

In the Ming Dynasty, since Emperor Hui cut the feudal domain, Chengzu Jingnan, especially after Chengzu was the emperor, although he did not exterminate all the vassal kings, he had gradually recovered all the financial power, military power and prison power in the hands of the vassal king, and set up three divisions in the local area.

In fact, the three divisions were set up by Emperor Taizu in the ninth year of Hongwu, aimed at the provincial level, changed the Yuan Dynasty's Xingzhongshu Province to Chengxuan Political Division, set up the left and right political envoys to be in charge of financial power and civil affairs, set up the punishment according to the procuratorial envoy in charge of the prison, and set up the capital command envoy to be in charge of the military power, but the vassal kings at that time were extremely powerful, such as King Ning, King Yue, etc., when the government soldiers were the most, they could reach three or five thousand people in the name alone, and they were all elite divisions, as for how many were in secret, it is unknown.

Even in some places, the annual tax burden of the common people was not handed over to the imperial court at all, but to the local vassal kings, and the fields and lands under the name of the vassal kings were countless, and their wealth could be described as rich and rivaling the country.

Take Nanyang at that time as an example, when Zhu Yuanzhang divided his son Zhu Tan as the king of Tang, he almost took the entire Nanyang as his territory, "Finance, prison and military power are all owned, and the fief is far wider than the sons." At that time, the Tang King Zhu Ta was the heaven of Nanyang, and what he said was equivalent to a holy decree, "Everyone knew the Tang King but did not know that there was a prefect!" ”

It's just that after arriving later, the rights of the vassal king became smaller and smaller, and Zhu Ta also actively responded to Chengzu's measures in order to protect his life, voluntarily handed over the military power in his hand, dismissed all the 3,000 elites in the family, and transferred all the financial and account books to the prefect, leaving only the fields and shops within 30 miles around the Tang Wang's mansion, and the power of the prison was all vested in the court and the locality.

If it weren't for Zhu Ta judging the situation and making the right choice, it is estimated that there is no Nanyang Mansion in Nanyang now, let alone the current Tang King Zhu Qijun.

However, Rao is like this, the power of the Tang Wangfu is still very large, and the financial resources are still not to be underestimated, even if all the three thousand elites are dismissed, there are still many generals in the mansion, and there are many masters of the rivers and lakes.

However, it is such a Tang Wangfu that has a very close relationship with the imperial court and has a very strong strength in itself, and is often bullied by a gang in Liuyuntang, and even suffers every time he fights, although Lu Yi has just arrived, he can also feel that there is a lot of article in it!

Thinking of this, Lu Yi couldn't help but ask, "What is the background of this Liuyun Hall?" Even the Tang King and the prefect were difficult to beat him? ”

Although the door of the private room had been closed, the shopkeeper still looked around vigilantly, and then leaned closer to Lu Yi, and then lowered his voice and said, "Guest officer, you must have heard of the name of Jinyiwei, right?" It is said that Fan Sanye has an extraordinary relationship with a certain big man in Jinyiwei, do you say that he has such a background that penetrates the sky, will he be afraid of a declining royal family? ”

Lu Yi was a little puzzled at first when he saw the shopkeeper looking like a thief, but after hearing the words "Jinyiwei", he completely understood.

For no other reason, the impression of Jinyiwei's pervasiveness has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, among which the most famous is the "head of the founding ministers" in the early Ming Dynasty, who was very trusted by Emperor Taizu.

The story goes like this, it is said that one day Song Lian invited a few friends to drink at home and served some wine and food.

When he went to court the next day, Emperor Taizu asked him what kind of meal he ate and drank yesterday?

Song Lian said that there were guests at home yesterday, so he put some wine and food.

Emperor Taizu asked him what kind of wine and what kind of food, and Song Lian also answered one by one, saying the name of the dish and the wine he drank.

While listening to Song Lian's answer, Emperor Taizu nodded and praised Song Lian for being an honest person and not deceiving her.

Later, Song Lian learned that the emperor had placed a fine work beside him, monitored his every move every day, and reported it immediately as soon as there was a situation at home, and the person responsible for monitoring Song Lian was Jinyiwei.

It is also from this incident that the legend about Jinyiwei has become more and more miraculous, and there are even rumors that Jinyiwei is pervasive and ubiquitous, even ordinary people are under their surveillance, as long as they dare to do something rebellious, or even say something that should not be said, they will be caught by Jinyiwei!

And this is also the reason why the little one in Fangcai Store is trembling and walking on thin ice!
