Chapter 1189: A Civil Case

Ma Shiying said: "Even if Li Dingguo has the ability again, but it is also from a rebel army, although he is now under the banner of the Yongli Dynasty, everyone understands that the king has entered Guizhou, and there is no land and a people, and the Yongli Dynasty is nothing more than a puppet mastered by Sun Kewang of the Great Western Army, especially after Sun Kewang killed more than ten Yongli courtiers...... Lord Wang, Sun Kewang has a different heart, if Li Dingguo obeys, then, in the future, the southwest half of the wall, how much we have to spend may not be able to control it! ”

Wu Zheng's expression became gloomy, although Ma Shiying is a villain, he is a real villain, this is like a villain first and then a gentleman, he is dutiful as a staff member.

Wu Zheng believed in Li Dingguo, but that was based on history.

Before his death, Zhang Xianzhong instructed his fourth adopted son, "The Ming Dynasty has been orthodox for three hundred years, and it may not be abandoned, and it is also the will of heaven." When I die, I will return to the light in a hurry, and I will not be unjust. ”

The hatred of killing his father and the hatred of the nation, not sharing the sky, this sentence made Li Dingguo let go of his hatred for the Ming Dynasty for more than ten years, put the overall situation first, and united Yongli to resist the Qing Dynasty.

But at present, many things have changed, for example, due to the containment of the southern and southern expeditionary armies, the Qing court's encirclement and suppression of the southwest is no longer so great. The Great Western Army has the space to calmly take root in Yunnan and Guizhou, if the Great Western Army really guards a corner, then as Ma Shiying said, if you want to enter in the future, how many people will have to die?

Will the infighting between Li Dingguo and Sun Kewang happen as usual?

Li Dingguo's choice...... Will it change?

Wu Zheng was indeed a little worried.

……。

However, at this time, a strange civil dispute case distracted Wu Zheng's energy.

It stands to reason that a civil case cannot alarm Wu Zheng.

How can a general who is in charge of the power of life and death in the land of the eleven prefectures have the leisure to pay attention to an ordinary civil dispute case?

If you really want to wait for Wu Zheng to be alarmed, then there will be problems with the officials at all levels.

Wu Zheng should clean up the yamen of the general's mansion, and then go down one level at a time, the government office, the county office, and the neighbors.

But this matter is like this, and it is put in front of Wu Zheng in a grand manner, without showing a trace of disobedience.

The case was handed over by Zhang Huangyan himself.

Zhang Huangyan is an upright person.

Righteous people can be deceived in their ways.

Zhang Huangyan really had no choice but to turn to Wu Zheng for help.

In the battle with the Qing army that took place from May to June, Yingtianfu was almost lost, and at the same time, there was a large-scale civil unrest in the capital and the surrounding areas of Gyeonggi due to the Hubu money bank fraud.

More than a dozen ministers of the imperial court suddenly disappeared, including Qian Qianyi, of course, it was later confirmed that Qian Qianyi had defected to Shuntian Mansion.

According to the law, a defection like this will bring disaster to the family.

But the problem is that Qian Qianyi's hometown is in Changshu County, Suzhou Prefecture, that is, Gyeonggi does not include Suzhou Prefecture.

Suzhou Mansion was originally one of the jurisdictions of Wang Zhiren of Xingguo, because Wang Zhiren was suppressed by Zhu Cihong, and returned most of the jurisdiction to the imperial court in exchange for Zhu Cihong's tolerance of him, but Suzhou Mansion was not among the returns.

Because in the early years, when Wu Zheng and Mo Zhi were preparing to build Mojia Qianzhuang, Wang Zhiren owned a hundred percent of the shares in Mojia Qianzhuang, and Wu Zheng exchanged shares for Wang Zhiren's freedom to open Mojia Qianzhuang in his jurisdiction.

Therefore, once the Suzhou Mansion is returned to the imperial court, it will inevitably cause a percentage of the dry shares in Wang Zhiren's hands to change hands.

At that time, Wang Zhiren was unable to get the full amount of military expenses from the imperial court, so he could only rely on the dividends of this cadre stock to raise the army, and naturally refused to hand it over.

Therefore, after Wang Zhiren was martyred, both the imperial court and Wu Zheng were very taboo about it.

No one wants to mention it.

The reason is that the imperial court wants to take this dry share for itself, so that it can be converted into shares of Hamming Bank, and proportionally, it can probably be exchanged for half of the shares of Hamming Bank, which is a huge asset.

But Wu Zheng will definitely not agree to this matter easily, Wu Zheng wants to transfer this cadre stock to Wang Yilin's name.

Wu Zheng's reason is very strong, Wang Zhiren sacrificed his life for the country, his private property is naturally inherited by his family, how can the imperial court get involved?

But Wu Zheng couldn't force himself to come, after all, Suzhou Mansion was not in his own name, but in the name of the imperial court.

In this way, Suzhou Mansion has become a "stalemate of power".

To put it simply, the Yamen is a member of the imperial court, but the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce's voice in Suzhou has overshadowed the Yamen.

So, in this way, many things will not work if they are according to the law.

For example, Qian Qianyi defected, and Qian Qianyi's family business in Changshu County, Suzhou Prefecture had to be confiscated and confiscated, and at the same time, three generations of the Qian family were implicated.

But at this time, the Qian family was not severely punished at all, because the imperial court had never issued an order to investigate and deal with it.

The imperial court was thinking that if the order was not carried out in Suzhou Mansion, the face of the imperial court would be lost, because the power of the local squires in the Ming Dynasty was very great, and a family had the power to say everything to the people in the clan, except for criminal cases.

To put it simply, unless it is a criminal case, ordinary disputes can be resolved within the clan without bothering the government.

This has created a large family, all of which have the strength to resist the law.

Therefore, to carry out such an order, it is necessary to mobilize an army of hundreds of people.

This is a taboo for the current situation of Suzhou Mansion, so the imperial court believes that since Wu Zheng was in the capital at the time, he knew that Qian Qianyi had defected, so he let Wu Zheng deal with it.

And how could Wu Zheng have the heart to care about such idle things? He thought that this matter should be handled by the court, and there was no need for him to become more and more ruined.

In this way, regardless of the two ends, the Qian family took advantage of the loophole and escaped a tragedy in which almost the entire clan was exiled or even wiped out.

If it was just like this, Zhang Huangyan would not have come to trouble Wu Zheng, and would have directly made up the order in the name of the judge.

Here's the thing, Qian Qianyi defected at that time, but Liu Rushi refused to follow and flee north.

Liu Ru got off the carriage halfway and returned to Changshu, that is, Qian Qianyi wanted to hide Jiaojiao in the golden house, and built the "Qianyun Building" and "Red Bean Pavilion" for Liu Ruyi.

Liu Ru was originally from Jiaxing, but since he was married, there is a way to marry a chicken with a chicken, marry a dog with a dog, and was unwilling to follow Qian Qianyi to flee north, so he naturally returned to Qian Qianyi's former residence in Changshu.

Moreover, at this time, Liu Ru had already given birth to a daughter for Qian Qianyi, and she was placed in her hometown in Changshu.

But here's the problem, when Liu Ru just went back, the situation was fine.

When the news of Qian Qianyi's defection came, it would be the same.

The local government did not investigate, but the clansmen made a fuss, and they wanted to divide up Qian Qianyi's family business, on the grounds that Qian Qianyi became a traitor and involved the clansmen, and the family property had to be owned by the clansmen.

Liu Ru was forced to have no choice, and in desperation, she couldn't afford to provoke her, so she could still hide, cleaned up the house, escaped from Changshu with her daughter, and went all the way back to Jiaxing, her own hometown.
