King Han, the title of Zhu Song, the twentieth son of Zhu Yuanzhang.

After several generations of reproduction, there are more than 1,000 people who can enjoy Lu rice, and Lu rice has increased from the initial 10,000 stone to 125,000 taels of silver every year.

It was this rich offering of the imperial court that made the people of the time make the most profound feelings about Pingliang City: a Han Wangfu, half of Pingliang City.

Due to the tight finances of the Ming Dynasty, arrears of rice in arrears have become the norm, and the amount of rice that has dragged down the Han Wangfu has reached 600,000 taels. After learning that the imperial court had promoted Lin Haoran to serve as the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites to cut Lu Mi, coupled with the resentment accumulated over the years, they suddenly broke out.

More than 140 members of the clan of the Han Wangfu led the guards and horses to leave the fiefdom of Pingliang City and crossed the pass into Xi'an. The Zongren led by the Fengguo general Zhu Rongxian directly besieged the residence of Chen Qixue, the governor of Shaanxi, and demanded the arrears of Lu rice from the most powerful official, clamoring and insulting.

Chen Qixue, the governor of Shaanxi, was the former secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Chen Di, and in the face of these sect members who came to ask for Lumi, he did not dare to condemn them as thieves, so he had to find a way to reconcile with them.

He knew very well that if he didn't come up with some silver taels, he was afraid that this matter would not be easy to deal with, but with the current financial resources of Shaanxi, he would not be able to come up with 600,000 taels at all, and even if he could get this arrears of silver, the officials and the army would only have to drink the northwest wind next year.

Chen Qixue, the governor of Shaanxi, had no choice but to send an order to the chief secretary to collect more than 278,000 taels of silver and pay it to the Han Wangfu twice, showing sufficient sincerity.

Fengguo's general Zhu Rongxian didn't buy it, and he had to ask for the full amount of 600,000 taels.

Chen Qixue has actually done his best, and in the face of the unreasonable troubles of these sect members, he can only keep his door closed.

It is said that they should stop if they can get such a large amount of money, but this group of sect members has intensified. They openly looted the streets of Xi'an, and the deadly streets were deserted, and the merchants had to close their shops one after another.

After robbing some property in the streets of Xi'an, but I don't know if it reached 600,000 taels, these sect members finally left Xi'an with great strength and returned to Pingliang City to continue to live a life of fine clothes and food.

Chen Qixue, the governor of Shaanxi, faced with such nonsense of these sectmen, immediately played the truth, and put forward the will to deal with this group of sectmen.

The Han Wangfu made such a fuss, which made the matter of Zongfan Lumi a hot topic again.

While condemning the evil behavior of these sect people robbing the streets, they couldn't help but refocus their eyes on the clan Lumi, making this topic a hot topic in the capital again.

If the imperial court can make up its mind to reduce the rice, then there will be no arrears, and there will be no excuse for these clansmen to make trouble.

Jiajing, who was cultivating, was furious when he learned of this. He immediately issued an edict to reprimand Zhu Rongsui, the king of Han, and ordered him to strictly restrain all clans, and abolished Zhu Rongxian and others from the clan as concubines.

However, fortunately, the time node has come to Chinese New Year's Eve, and the imperial court is unlikely to spend a lot of time because of this matter, although the various Yamen have condemned the behavior of the people of the Han Wang's clan, but they have also taken a holiday for the New Year.

It's just that the evil deeds of the Han royal clan have left a handle after all, and both officials and scholars will re-examine the big ill of the sect's Lumi.

The people of the capital are much more pure, and their minds are all focused on the New Year, preparing to participate in the drum tower lantern festival led by the Shuntian Mansion, which makes the entire capital permeated with a strong New Year's flavor.

With bunches of fireworks rushing into the night sky, the forty-third year of Jiajing quietly came.

Lin Haoran has had a simple year, although she is accompanied by two beautiful women, but there is no wild girl who likes to mess around, which makes the whole house seem to be missing something.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, early in the morning, protégés, former subordinates, subordinates, and some officials who knew or did not know each other came to visit the Lin Mansion. When the doorkeeper opened, a large group of officials had gathered outside, because New Year's greetings were all about paying respects to the morning.

Lin Haoran is the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, since he has already opened a government and established a hall, there is no need to pay homage to Xu Jie and other bigwigs in the early years, and the time can be pushed back. Wu Shan will not pay attention to this set there, and he can take Wu Qiuyu to visit the New Year on the second day of the Lunar New Year.

Officials from the Ministry of Rites and former subordinates of the Shuntian Mansion visited one after another, and colleagues from the Hanlin Academy and many officials in Beijing arrived one after another, including Zhang Juzheng, the secretary of the Guozijian Department.

After dealing with some important officials, Lin Haoran received his protégé. In officialdom, when it comes to intimacy, it is actually a teacher-student relationship, at least so far there is no precedent for teachers and students to oppose their goals.

"The student has paid New Year's greetings to his teacher!"

Wang Honghai, Wang Jun, Liu Fushan, and Shen Tao had all entered the officialdom, and in the face of this teacher who was the left attendant of the Ministry of Etiquette, they seemed to be respectful.

Lin Haoran held the teacher's shelf slightly, and raised his hand casually and said, "Sit down!" ”

Wang Honghai and the four of them thanked each other again, and waited until Lin Haoran sat down, and then they put half of their butts on the chair.

Wang Jun has become the official imperial historian from the criminal name Jinshi, and the other three are all in the same position, but they have all grown and understand how lucky they are to be able to connect with this teacher.

Lin Haoran took the tea sent by Lin Fu, and also fulfilled his responsibility as a teacher, that is, he asked Wang Honghai and the four about their recent situation, what problems they encountered in their positions, and gave advice on their behavior.

Like Wang Jun, who served as the supervisor of the imperial history, Lin Haoran admonished: "You are now a science and technology official, and it is said that you should take admonishment and supervision as your own responsibility, but the teacher hopes that you will focus on supervision and put aside the matter of admonishment for the time being." Shen Qingxia and Yang Jiaoshan both said that they were killed by the Yan family's father and son, but this is not without holy intentions, and Yang Yigong just now proves that the saint cannot be angered! I don't say this for the sake of being implicated by you, but because I don't want to see you destroy your future, you may experience the hard work of being a teacher? ”

Wang Jundang even said: "Without the guidance of the teacher, the students will not!" Today's court is like this, students see it, if there is such a move, students will definitely come to the teacher for the first time to discuss! ”

"That's great!" Lin Haoran nodded lightly, and said to the others again.

Wang Honghai was already a Hanlin editor at a young age, and his future was limitless, but at the time of parting, he suddenly said: "Teacher, yesterday Zhang Taiyue asked our Hanlin editorial department to return to the Hanlin Academy on the sixth day of junior high school, and the initial political section was about the disadvantages of the feudal sect!" ”

"I see!" Lin Haoran's heart moved slightly, and he nodded thoughtfully.

The Spring Festival holiday is followed by the Lantern Festival holiday, and the normal holiday time for officials is from the first to the twentieth day of the new year. It's just that the capital is the center of the Ming Dynasty after all, and there will always be many unexpected events, and officials will actually have to go back to the yamen to deal with urgent affairs at will.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Li Chunfang suddenly called Lin Haoran and Qin Leiming back to the Yamen of the Ministry of Rites.
