Chapter 125: Anger
Yan Eighteen probably hasn't been like this for a long time, and all the hatred, unwillingness, and resentment that have accumulated in his heart have all gushed out from the bottom of his heart.
He roared loudly: "The old thief is innocent of death, and the blood on his hands is enough to kill him inside, how can we treat such a jackal with compassion?" ”
"Lord Wang! If this thief is not eliminated now, he will definitely be a great trouble for the henchmen of today's saints in the future, do you really want to watch him continue to plague the people of Jiangnan? ”
In the face of Yan Eighteen, who was so excited, listening to this person's sonorous questioning, it was clear that the master couldn't make a sound
I saw that the speed of his right hand turning the rosary was several times faster, his lips moved slightly, and he began to recite the Heart Sutra again.
He is well-versed in the belly, and he has been involved in history and essays, so he naturally knows that those who are involved with the word mausoleum rarely get a good death.
The reason why I said that just now was because I didn't want to think of that despair out of my Buddha's compassion.
But Yan Shiba's scruples today made him dare to say anything, and he was not afraid of anything to be brought to the surface.
The poor little bubble of hope was punctured by others quickly and directly, and the master only felt that his heart, which had just calmed down, began to gurgle again.
Yan Eighteen saw Master Ran start to chant the scriptures, Mr. Han Ning stared at him, and Qi Xuanhui still looked thoughtful.
He simply turned his heart sideways, and then said: "Over the years, we have been secretly tracking down and learning about the coolies who are repairing the mausoleum on the other side. Some were prisoners in prisons, some were civilians who couldn't afford to pay their taxes, and some were villagers in the nearby mountains. ”
"As for the craftsmen who know a little bit about various crafts, it is the tooth shop opened by Xuanping Hou's subordinates, saying that they went to sea to work in Nanyang to make money, but in fact, they sent people here as soon as they got in the car."
"And the tooth store has to collect a deposit first, hehe, it really doesn't count the money, but also people's lives. It's a good deal. ”
"These people are also speaking at least 20,000 people. If the mausoleum is not completed for a day, they can at least survive in the world, but as long as this mausoleum is repaired, there will be a river of blood here! ”
"Lord Wang. Mr. Han Ning. You two are members of the court. You must know that the taxes in Jiangnan are decreasing year after year, right? ”
But the fact is that there have not been too many natural and man-made disasters in Jiangnan in recent years, even if it was the flood of the previous year. The imperial court did not just look at it with its eyes and say it with its mouth, but brought real money and silver to shake the disaster. ”
"You might as well do the math, originally they collected more and more miscellaneous taxes, and the silver in their pockets only increased, but they reported losses to the court year after year, this is a two-layer account inside and outside, dare you count it?"
When Yan Eighteen said this, his hands were trembling with excitement, and he pointed to the outside and said in a trembling voice: "His Huang family is basically using the silver of the court to do good things for their family, and these thieves are hiding from the sky and bullying the people, which is really a bad thing, even more powerful than the blood-sucking leeche." ”
"To put it mildly, if the imperial court still tolerates and nurtures traitors, I don't think it will be too long, and the poor people in Jiangnan will have to rebel and find a way to survive by themselves!"
When Qi Xuanhui heard this, his heart was even tighter, wasn't there a civil unrest in his previous life?
However, at that time, the imperial court and Xuanping Hou were still very harmonious, Xuanping Hou and General Annan joined hands, and the two families were under the banner of quelling chaos, but in fact, they were dealing with the mess for Xuanping Hou's mansion.
One of these two people was the supreme commander of the Jiangnan garrison, and the other was a powerful and wealthy emperor.
For the shameless thing of not being a human being in private, and also for the common interests of both parties in Jiangnan, these two not only deceived and concealed the sky, but also planted all the charges on the heads of the people, and shamelessly stretched out their hands to ask the court for the money to quell the rebellion.
At the beginning, it was still a small chaos and a small war, but later the number of times became more and more frequent, turning the original land of fish and rice, the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan, into a place of war.
Qi Xuanzhen was given a headache by the years-long Jiangnan Rebellion, and in the end, he was ruthless, and after a lot of effort, he attacked Jiangnan, and finally cut off the tumor of Xuanping Houfu.
I have to mention that he Qi Xuanhui has also made contributions, at that time he has become a lonely ghost, how can a child who is less than ten years old keep his family wealth?
It was with this windfall that Qi Xuanzhen had a rich pocket, so he had the capital to arm the army and bring Jiangnan back under his wing.
But because the imperial court dragged on and on, it did not deal with the war in Jiangnan in time, and finally after the incident, the entire sixteen counties in Jiangnan became desolate, and the people everywhere were struggling to make a living.
Many beautiful and wealthy small villages have fallen victim to the war, most of the men in the prime of life have been killed or wounded, and most of the people left in the village are old and weak, and lonely women and children.
Even if the imperial court vigorously suppressed the corrupt officials related to the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, and then sent new officials from the capital, it brought a major change of blood to Jiangnan Province from the inside out.
It took ten years for the sixteen counties in Jiangnan to regain some of their former prosperity.
Since God has given him such a magical life in two lives, and he has been blessed in the dark, he has learned so much unknown information in his previous life step by step.
There must be a special truth, the Buddha is merciful, the way of heaven is clear, Qi Xuanhui feels that he should be the one chosen by God to correct everything wrong and save the people from fire and water.
Thinking about it like this, Qi Xuanhui felt a little relieved in his heart, he knew that rebirth would not only allow him to improve his brotherly affection and find the woman he loved.
Everything in front of him is his ultimate task, although it is not easy to complete, but with his current mentality, how can he watch Jiangnan and repeat the mistakes of his previous life?
He raised his eyes and instructed Shen Chao: "Go, pour a cup of hot tea for Mr. Yan, let Mr. sit down and thank you, slow down." ”
Yan Eighteen wanted to speak when he heard this, but Qi Xuanhui stretched out his hand to stop him, "Mr. Yan." What we need most now is the word 'calm', your current emotions are too excited, which is not conducive to normal conversation. ”
"Have a cup of tea, calm down, and when you can control yourself, it's not too late for us to talk."
Yan Shibai reluctantly took the hot tea handed by Shen Chao, sat down and took a sip, and said secretly: "Will you know calm down?" I don't know who it is. Eager to eat people?! ”
But let Qi Xuanhui say this. His initial purpose was achieved, he glanced at Mr. Han Ning, and honestly drank the tea in his hand.
Qi Xuanhui watched Yan 18 sit down and watched Yan 18 start drinking tea. I watched the rise and fall of this man's chest gradually become smaller. His own heart seemed to be a little quieter.
I couldn't help but gently tap on the stone table in my hand. The corners of his lips pursed, and he began to think seriously.
Cui Yongzhong is the most hidden one in the entire team. His shock can be imagined, since he saw the mausoleum opposite, he has not said a word, and has been hanging his head in deep thought.
It was Qi Xuanhui's anger and Yan Eighteen's impassioned narration that dragged him back to reality, and I have to say that the impact of the scene in front of him was by no means a little, but huge.
Cui Yongzhong is the most orthodox disciple of the family, and the words and deeds of a saint who studied since childhood, courtesy, righteousness and honesty are the most basic things.
It can be said that his loyal and patriotic thoughts have long been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, and if he really encounters a famine, it is a loss of heaven, and he will actively provide disaster relief.
If you encounter a corrupt official who harms the people, the good official who is clear will take down the thief and return the people to justice.
But now it seems that this Marquis of Xuanping was greedy for the taxes that should have been paid to the treasury, but it was for the sake of his own interests.
Not only did they build countless mausoleums in violation of the law, but they also abducted so many innocent people.
After Yan Eighteen's detailed explanation, everyone knows that these people are a dead end, and if they don't want to find a way, this is the inevitable result.
This is fundamentally the moth of the country, the scourge of the people, and the crime committed by the Marquis of Xuanping, but it is a crime of bullying the king.
Even if there was no blatant rebellion, this man acted so arrogantly and arrogantly that he didn't care about human life at all.
It can be seen from this that he, Huang Yifeng, did not take His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Jing Dynasty seriously from his heart!
This kind of disrespectful and humble person is basically equivalent to a chaotic minister and thief, and the marquis is simply unbearable!
Cui Yongzhong was so angry that he stood up suddenly, and said indignantly to Qi Xuanhui: "Lord Wang, this matter is not trivial, and it must be reported to God." ”
"Jiangnan, all dynasties belong to the hometown of rice and grain in my Dajing Dynasty, and it is a rule for the south to go north, just think about it, there are rats in the granary, and the consequences are really unimaginable!"
"This person is so greedy, once the good is forced into trouble in the future, the south of the Yangtze River will be in chaos, and the people will not even be able to save their lives, how can they farm?"
"If there is no grain in the south to the north, the price of rice will inevitably grow uncontrollably, and at that time, it will not only be chaos in the south of the Yangtze River, but also panic in the north of the Yangtze River!"
"You are the good prince of today, the younger brother of the saint, in the face of such a catastrophe that can shake the country, you must not ignore it, you not only have to take care of it, but also have to manage it to the end!"
This is worthy of being a civil official sitting in the yamen, and he thinks about a long-term situation, and sees things at least ten years from now.
Cui Yongzhong's words actually spoke the hearts of most people, but they made people think about him a lot.
It is not difficult to see where the problem is, but the difficulty is to be able to say these words to the superior without scruples.
You know, the stakes are big, and if you don't say a word well, you may face prison, and it is really courageous to be able to talk about such a sensitive topic in front of everyone.
With Cui Yongzhong as an example, Cao Mu couldn't help but say angrily: "Lord Wang, what are you still thinking about?" ”
"Aren't you traveling thousands of miles just to collect evidence that Xuanping Hou oppressed the people, bribed the civil and military officials in Jiangnan for his use, and covered the sky in Jiangnan?"
But what more proof could it be than this? You should write a memo to the saint as soon as possible, so that the court can convict the Marquis of Xuanping with real evidence. ”
"Now that you are in Jiangnan, as long as you receive the order, you can completely transfer troops to suppress the Xuanping Marquis Mansion!"
Seeing this, Yan Eighteen also wanted to continue to add fire, but was pulled by Gao Dengshan's sleeve, and the whisper said four words in his ear: "It's too much!" ”
Yan Eighteen looked at Gao Dengshan, and then at Qi Xuanhui, who was uncertain, thinking about it, under the excitement of the crowd, what he said was inevitably sharper, it was easy to make people unhappy, and it would be counterproductive if he didn't do it well.
In the end, I still listened to Gao Dengshan's persuasion, kept silent, just a pair of eyes, and still couldn't help but look at this and that.
For a moment, the hall fell into a brief silence, and the atmosphere became more and more solemn.
Everyone was holding their breath, and there was no movement at all, and in the hall of Nuoda, they heard the sound of Qi Xuanhui tapping the stone table with his fingertips.
Suddenly, there was a sound of this small and disorganized sound, and I saw Qi Xuanhui slowly raise his eyes, look at Mr. Han Ning, who had not said a word from beginning to end, and asked, "What does Mr. mean?" ”
In the face of Xuanping Hou's bold retrograde, how could Han Ning not be angry?
This master is mainly based on faces, followed by other miscellaneous studies, so he believes in the theory of Feng Shui destiny the most.
Others may still be skeptical about this, and they are mostly annoyed by the violation of the rules and transgressions of the Marquis of Xuanping, and they do not take the court laws into account, which is simply a great crime.
But Han Ning really believed that once the mausoleum opposite was built and the people of the Huang family were buried in it, it would definitely pose a mortal threat to Qi Xuanzhen.
Of course, he will only have one thought, 'The second trouble must be eliminated!' This tomb will be destroyed! ’
But how can such a big scourge be removed, and how can such a big tomb be destroyed?
This is not something that can be done immediately as soon as the upper lip touches the lower lip, no matter how big it is, it must also have a charter!
You can't just be out of character.
The most important point is that this charter was not achieved by Qi Xuanhui and what he said, and the crimes committed by Xuanping Hou now, if he wants to make a plot against him, he intends to rebel, and he is not reluctant at all.
But once it is involved in the rebellion, it becomes the top priority of the imperial court, and everything has to be followed by the procedures of the imperial court.
These things can't be solved by just giving the emperor a letter.
First of all, Han Ning had to reach a unified opinion with Qi Xuanhui first, and the two of them considered it together and jointly played a fold.
When the emperor in the capital receives the fold, he will definitely not just look at the opinions of the two of them, and will definitely send another secret edict to the minister of the humerus to come to discuss.
It is necessary to discuss a careful plan in combination with the current situation of the Great Jing Dynasty, so that Qi Xuanhui can be edicted and ordered to act cheaply in accordance with the will of the saint in Jiangnan.
These roads, none of them can be less, and they dare not be less, otherwise, if something goes wrong in the future, it will not be Qi Xuanhui who will bear the black pot, or he Han Ning!
These people in front of them still have too little experience and think things too simply! Look at the good prince of the family, how calm is it? (To be continued......)
