Volume 2 Chapter 56 The King of the Fighting Domain
His Royal Highness the King of Jin!
What the heck?
Yang Cong didn't know who the King of Jin was, the Jin King line is the descendant of Zhu Yuanzhang's third son Zhu Li, in the early Ming Dynasty, it was one of the most powerful vassal kings in addition to the Yan King, and its fief was in Taiyuan Mansion, and Taiyuan Mansion in Yangqu, Yuci, Taigu, Qi County, Qingyuan, Wenshui, Shouyang, Yuxian, Jingle, Hequ and other counties all have the fief of the Jin King and a line of county kings, it can be said that more than half of the fertile land in the entire Taiyuan Mansion belongs to the Jin Palace.
But what does this have to do with Chang Li?
The current vassal kings are different from the vassal kings in the early Ming Dynasty, since the Yongle Dynasty, all the vassal kings have been kept in their own fiefdoms, not allowed to leave the fiefdom, not to raise private armies, not to interfere in local affairs, not to engage in the four industries of agriculture and commerce, it stands to reason that the Jin Wangfu should not be able to manage Chang Li, a local tyrant.
Yang Cong was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and he asked coldly: "Have you donated all the land in your hands to the Jin Palace?" ”
Chang Li said with a little pride: "Yes, the land in the hands of the students has been donated to the Jin Palace, and the grain produced is also from the Jin Palace, and His Royal Highness the King of Jin will not let me sell it, so I can't sell it." ”
Fuck your shit, when I'm an idiot!
Yang Cong said angrily: "Who are you bluffing, the land surrendered is just hanging in the name of the Jin Palace, and most of the grain produced is not yours, you don't know how to drop it when you are the official?" ”
Chang Li pretended to be helpless and said: "Hanging in the name of the Jin Palace, it is also His Royal Highness the King of Jin, His Royal Highness the King of Jin ordered, how dare the students not listen?" In this Taiyuan Mansion, there are a few people who dare not listen to His Royal Highness the King of Jin! ”
Nima, I'm in trouble.
Although this old guy is a bit of a scoundrel, but what he said is not false at all, the local tyrant and squire of Taiyuan Mansion are estimated to have something to do with the Jin Prince's Mansion, because dedicating their land to the Jin Prince's Mansion can exempt all harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, this kind of good thing, whoever doesn't do it is a fool.
If the Jin Wangfu goes against him, let alone 100,000 stone grain, it is estimated that 10,000 stone grain will not be able to buy.
In recent years, the common people don't have much land in their hands, and almost all the land is in the hands of these royal relatives and local tyrant squires, like Xinzhou, where there are two or three million acres of arable land, but most of the more than 100,000 people in Xinzhou are tenant farmers, and they don't have an acre of land at home, so they can only work long hours for the local tyrants and squires to barely make a living.
Why?
It's very simple, because their land has been annexed by these local tyrant squires by all means, and the local tyrant squires have dedicated their land to the Jin Palace.
It seems that it is useless to persecute this old guy, because he is not the person in charge, and he must negotiate with the Jin Palace.
These royal clansmen are really troublesome, I don't know how to enjoy the glory and wealth, but also to cause trouble everywhere, take it by force, is it really easy for everyone to bully?
Yang Cong thought for a while, and then said coldly: "You tell the people of the Jin Palace, I am the son-in-law of Lord Lu Songlu, and also, the son of Lord Cui Yuan Cui is also here, let them send a steward to come over and discuss with me, within three days, if you don't come, don't blame us for being polite." ”
My God, even the Jin Wangfu dares to threaten, this guy is too good.
At first, he thought that Yang Cong was just a stunned young man who didn't know the height of the sky, who knew that this guy was not even afraid of the royal prince, this seems to be a real god, pinching him to death is estimated to be like pinching an ant to death, he can't be provoked, so he quickly admit it.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly nodded and said, "Okay, good, good, if you are an adult, the student will definitely bring it." ”
Can Yang Cong really threaten the Jin Palace?
It depends on what is going on, if he makes it clear that he is bullying the people of the Jin Palace, and even threatens the life of the King of Jin, then the Jin Mansion will definitely not compromise with him.
What are you kidding, no matter how King Di Jin is also a member of the royal family, can he be bullied by an outsider like this?
However, now this matter is different, this shows that the Jin Wangfu wants to bully people.
In these years, the vassal kings are not lawless, anyone can bully, and when they encounter hard stubble, there are not one or two feudal kings planted.
Yang Cong's meaning is very simple, I have the emperor's nurse and the emperor's aunt behind me, so I ask if you are afraid.
If you're afraid, you will send someone over and tell me about it, and see why you can't get along with me.
Don't be afraid, then let's see!
Will the dignified King Jin be afraid of him, the new champion?
Not to mention, this Jin King Zhu Xindi was really a little scared after receiving the news, he was not afraid of Yang Cong, he was afraid of the Li family and the eldest princess of Yongkang behind Yang Cong, these two are the closest relatives of the emperor today, if they want them to go to the emperor to chew their tongues, the emperor may really abolish him!
It is not for nothing that the royal princes have been cut off, such as Zhu Lu, the king of Zhou, Zhu Gui, Zhu Bai, the king of Xiang, Zhu Rong, the king of Qi, and Zhu Rong, the king of Min, who were abolished during the Jianwen Emperor's period, and Zhu Sui, the king of Qi, who was degraded to a concubine, and so on.
Why were these people deposed, they were too arrogant is one aspect, and more importantly, they offended too many people, so that some people ran to the emperor to sue the emperor, otherwise how would the emperor know that they were arrogant, Emperor Jianwen and Ming Chengzu could not have come to stare at them in person, and what they did was not sued by others.
As soon as Zhu Xindi, the king of Jin, heard Yang Cong mention Cui Yuan and Lu Song, he understood that this guy was threatening him, and it was very simple to sue him for the imperial court.
Okay, sue the royal complaint, he is indeed a little afraid, then send someone to talk, in desperation, he can only send Shi Zhoufeng, the left chief of the palace, to talk to others.
The head of the palace, Shi Na, is also a five-grade official registered in the Ministry of Officials, Yang Cong is very polite to others, he personally welcomed Cui Feng into the lobby, and ordered someone to serve fragrant tea, so he politely introduced: "Lord Zhou, this is the prince of Jingshan, Cui Hao, the current governor of the Houjun Governor's Mansion Tongzhi." ”
Cui Hao, who was sitting on the side, heard this, and politely arched his hand and said: "Lord Zhou, I am fortunate to meet, I am fortunate to meet." ”
Fortunately, you two little rabbit cubs are so terrible that even His Royal Highness the King of Jin dares to threaten.
Zhou Feng secretly scolded himself, but on the surface, he politely replied, and then asked with a smile: "Lord Yang, I don't know what you are doing to recruit the old man?" ”
You're too embarrassed to ask.
Yang Cong didn't bother to talk to him, so he simply pointed out: "It's not a big deal, but I heard that your Jin Wangfu seems to have a little misunderstanding with your father, I don't know what the so-called thing is?" ”
This means to make it clear.
Zhou Feng said quietly: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that some of the land that Ling Zun bought was something that our prince had taken a fancy to before." ”
Nima, it turned out that he wanted to force his father away, and then take away the land in his father's hands, I haven't seen the money or what's wrong, my father's hands are only two or three thousand acres of land at this time, okay, do you lack this land?
Yang Cong couldn't help but sneered: "It seems that my father only has a total of two or three thousand acres of land in his hands, can this little bit of Xiaoli Wang Ye take a fancy to it?" ”
Zhou Feng said unhurriedly: "Lord Yang, you don't know the difficulties of the palace, after all, there are so many people in the palace to feed, don't you have a bite to eat if you have more land." ”
Nima, Yang Cong really wants to go crazy, these royal relatives are too greedy, they dominate so much land, have you eaten all the food you grow?
