Chapter 220: Next, Southeast

Zhang Weixian felt that there was nothing wrong, after all, he was the prince of the Ming Dynasty, not the prince of his Tang Kingdom, and Emperor Chongzhen would definitely be happy if he was the grandson of the Tang Dynasty, as for whether he Zhu Yujian was happy, Zhang Weixian said that it was my business.

Of course, Zhang Weixian guessed right, and Emperor Chongzhen was indeed very happy. The reason why he took a high look at Zhu Yujian was just because this guy was the only vassal king among the vassal kings who dared to raise troops when Jiannu besieged the capital, as for what special treatment Zhu Yujian had to be given because of this, Emperor Chongzhen would definitely say no.

Seeing Emperor Chongzhen's provoking by Zhang Weixian's, Wen Tiren was a little unhappy.

This damn should have been said by Lao Tzu, the first minister, what kind of grace did you have a noble military minister come here to rob of? This can't be endured, absolutely can't be endured!

After thinking about it for a while, Wen Tiren bowed down and said to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, the way to govern the country since ancient times lies in the balance between civil and military. Wengui is prone to the worries of the former Song Jingkang, and Wugui is afraid of feudal towns.

Now that His Royal Highness the grandson of the Tang Dynasty founded the country with poison and stopped the guards of the guards, what should be done with the fiefdoms that have been defeated? If it is managed by soldiers and generals, it is a civilian marching law, which is probably more stringent than the tyrannical Qin government.

Therefore, the minister thought that the prime minister and officials of various ministries should be selected from among the officials of the Ming Dynasty to rectify the place. ”

Zhu Yujian endured it again and again, but he couldn't bear it anymore. Damn, Lao Tzu took the money and recruited soldiers to fight the country, Wen Tiren, you bastard, proposed to send civil officials to manage it, what do you want to do? Want to run away with the widow and give it to your emperor's master?

The more he thought about it, the more unhappy Zhu Yujian became, but he didn't know what to say, and his heart became more and more anxious.

Just when Zhu Yujian felt that he was very painful, he heard Emperor Chongzhen say: "That's it, except for the prime minister and the captain, the rest of the officials are all decided by Uncle Wang." ”

Zhu Yujian didn't care about showing his image of a virtuous king at this time, so he hurriedly bowed down and patted Emperor Chongzhen and said, "Your Majesty Shengming, thank you Your Majesty Longen." ”

Emperor Chongzhen said: "Uncle Wang doesn't have to be polite. ”

After a slight pause, Chongzhen continued: "Originally, I thought that I would finalize the replacement of Uncle Wang's fief with the fief today, but I didn't want there to be so many joints.

In this case, Uncle Wang can go to the Zongren Mansion first, report the genealogy of the Tang Dynasty lineage first, and then go to the land of Ganshan to recruit guards.

As for the displaced people, they can wait for Uncle Wang to go back to Daming to recruit after the founding of the country in the poisonous land, and I will not stop them. If Uncle Wang is not at ease, he can recruit first. ”

Zhu Yujian wanted to tell Emperor Chongzhen loudly that Lao Tzu was not at ease, but thinking that he was now a fish and a knife, and the knife was in the hands of Emperor Chongzhen, Zhu Yujian, who lacked confidence, had to bow down and say: "Your Majesty, the minister is naturally relieved." It's just that the army acts, grain and grass come first, and the minister still wants to recruit some people to accompany the army in the land of Ganshan? ”

Emperor Chongzhen didn't think about not letting Zhu Yujian recruit exiles at all.

There are not many others in the Ming Dynasty, that is, there are many people in his mother, and there are almost 100,000 people in Shaanxi who have been affected by the disaster, and the more he Zhu Yujian recruits, the happier Emperor Chongzhen is.

Emperor Chongzhen, who was secretly cool in his heart, simply waved his hand and said: "As Uncle Wang is happy, as long as Uncle Wang gives the people the money to settle down, it doesn't hurt to recruit all the displaced people in Shaanxi." ”

Emperor Chongzhen's big hand waved easily, but the people in Shaanxi had a lot of fun to watch.

First of all, the people and displaced people in Chang'an County found that since the last time the emperor left, the porridge they could receive was obviously much thicker - the kind of porridge that used to be clear and visible, and they had to be hungry after a morning's work, but now this kind of porridge is drunk in the morning, and if you don't move much, you can basically last until the sun sets.

Then there are people over the age of eighteen and under the age of fifty in the entire county, all of whom have been organized by the masters of Jinyiwei, whether they help transport grain, or send them to dredge the river, in short, they will be given silver money if they do more, and those who don't need silver money can also be exchanged for food.

Now the people were very happy. A few members of a family, as long as there are one or two strong laborers to follow the work, the food they get plus the porridge given by the government can basically ensure that the whole family does not have to go hungry anymore.

Such days are very good days for the people, except that the county town was cutting people for a few days at the beginning, and it was the hands of the Jinyi Wei uncles from the capital.

However, the people only felt a little disgusted, after all, the blood on the streets every day was too bad to smell.

There is a saying that if you are bored, you have to find something to amuse the boring people, and the young and strong people are gathered to work, and the rest of the old or young people are happy to see that they don't have to starve to death.

Especially seeing that Jin Yiwei doesn't care about what they usually talk about, plus the weather is still hot, some old men like to get together to find a cool place to squat, and they don't want to keep the door on their mouths, and they start to point out the country one by one.

"Look at the brocade guards from the capital, they are not as tight as the officials who originally put the grain.

According to my old man's opinion, let alone the officials, even if all the soldiers in the guards in Shaanxi are added together, they can't catch up with the majesty of the brocade guards in the capital. Especially the one who took the lead, I heard that the surname is Tian, and he is the governor of Jinyiwei. ”

The old man next to him simply smiled, and then said, "This is amazing, I heard that the brother-in-law of the third aunt of the seventh uncle and grandfather of my neighbor's family said that this Tiandu Governor is the five tigers in the eunuch party, and those officials can tremble in fear when they hear his name." ”

Listening to what the old man didn't know where to hear it, an old man next to him immediately laughed: "What eunuchs don't eunuch the party, I see, these officials are not in charge." You see how honest the emperor was when he came here and killed these people. Now even an old guy like you can have a full meal, isn't it beautiful? ”

When the old man who spoke before heard this, he was not annoyed, but just nodded and said, "It's not, it's just undercured." It's still the emperor, a good man. I don't know what the emperor is doing now.

But I haven't heard of the disaster in the capital, so I see, the emperor may be hoeing the ground with a golden hoe at this time. Lao Li, do you say? ”

The old man, who was still laughing at him just now, heard this, and chuckled and said: "I said Old Man Zhao, what do you old guy know, our emperor, like Emperor Wuzong, but he likes to fight, and at this time, he may have taken his troops to Liaodong to kill Jiannu." ”

Old man Zhao stiffened his neck and said, "You Lao Li is talking nonsense!" If the capital had not suffered a disaster, then the emperor would not have taken the civil and military ministers to the land to harvest the crops? Or just buy it? Is that okay? Isn't that a loser? ”

When Old Man Li heard this, he smiled and said, "Say that you are old man Zhao, you are still not happy." Think about it, who is that? That's the Emperor!

How many families did the emperor have in his house? How many people can command? Can you go down to the field and harvest the crops yourself? I don't know what you old guy thinks. ”

As he was talking, he gently touched the old man Zhao next to him with his elbow, and said with a wink: "Hey, look over there, isn't it the guy from Jinyiwei?" ”

When Old Man Zhao heard this, he looked in the direction indicated by Old Man Li, but it wasn't Tian Ergeng?

In fact, as people get older, their ears are a little back, and in order to be able to hear what they are saying clearly, their voices will involuntarily become louder.

The voices of Old Man Zhao and Old Man Li were not loud in their own eyes, but Tian Ergeng, who was getting closer and closer, heard it clearly.

Listening to the two old guys arranging Emperor Chongzhen to hoe the ground with a golden hoe, the corners of Tian Ergeng's mouth couldn't help twitching, and he said in his heart, why don't you two old things say that the queen mother still burns scallion pancakes every day!

Although the two old men were full of nonsense, Tian Ergeng still didn't say anything, just walked straight in front of the two old men, and even squeezed out a smile to the two old men - no way, if this kind of arrangement is reported, Emperor Chongzhen will definitely smile without care. Since you can make the emperor happy, why do you toss two old guys? Uncle Jinyiwei has a lot of things to do every day.

It's just that Tian Ergeng should really find a place to worship God first, and before he walked over, he heard the old man Zhao behind him say: "Hey, that guy just now was smiling at us, right?" ”

Old man Li pouted and said, "Besides, laughing is more ugly than crying." ”

Tian Ergeng's face, which was already gloomy, was even more ugly at the moment.

Damn, Lao Tzu is in a good mood today, thinking of coming out to see the scene of those grain merchants being chopped, but it turns out that it is okay to listen to the two old guys arranging the emperor, and he also said that Lao Tzu laughs more ugly than crying! What the hell is the truth!

Tian Ergeng is not happy, and the last batch of guys who were killed are even more happy.

Tian Ergeng, who was already bad with pus on the top of his head and sores on the soles of his feet, deliberately cut down the families of those grain merchants in front of those grain merchants when he carried out the will of Emperor Chongzhen, but these grain merchants themselves poured some liquid food every day, as long as they did not die of hunger.

Now, several days have passed, and the families of these guys have finally been cut clean, and it is finally the turn of the main master.

Tian Ergeng, who felt that he was angry, was unhappy, so he unconsciously strode towards the small square where he usually put porridge and cut people at three o'clock in the afternoon.

Because he walked faster than usual, when Tian Ergeng arrived at the small square, the time was not yet three o'clock in the afternoon. After thinking about it, Tian Ergeng simply squeezed in from the crowd and arrived at the prison platform.

He kicked at the Jinyi guard who was in charge of the beheading, and after rushing to the side, Tian Ergeng sat down in his place with a big grin.

The chief officer in charge of supervising the beheading, Ma Weiqiu, the governor of Xi'an Mansion, twitched the corners of his mouth, and arched his hand to Tian Ergeng and said, "I've seen Lord Tian." ”

Tian Ergeng was in a bad mood, but he couldn't attack Ma Weiqiu, so although his face was still gloomy, he still arched his hand and said, "I've seen Lord Prefect." ”

Looking up at the sun, Tian Ergeng said to Ma Weiqiu: "Lord Prefect, it's almost time?" ”

Ma Weiqiu nodded, and said with a sigh: "Almost, this is the beginning of the execution." ”

Ma Weichuan now understands very well, the work that Emperor Chongzhen arranged for himself is not a good job at all, he has to let himself walk around the Ming Dynasty, and when the time comes, he will inevitably offend people, if there is really any magistrate who wants to take the risk to kill himself, he has to rely on these guys in Jinyiwei to save his life.

Since we want everyone to work together in the future, then don't hold on to the shelves that you have now, since the time has come now, you might as well sell him to save face.

Ma Weiqiao simply stood up from his chair, took out a lottery from the lottery holder on the table in front of him, held it in his hand, and stared at a dozen tied grain merchants: "Please also ask Lord Tian to announce the guilt of these people?" ”

When Tian Ergeng heard this, he didn't shirk it, he stood up immediately, and said loudly: "After investigation, 16 grain merchants in Chang'an County, including the Tian family, the Wang family, the Xu family, the Li family, the Zhou family, and the Chen family, manipulated grain prices, violated the ban of the imperial court, resold relief grain, and murdered Chang'an County Order. ”

When the people in the audience heard this, they also raised their arms and shouted: "Ling Chi! Ling Chi! All of a sudden, there was a tsunami, and more than a dozen big grain merchants who had never put these mud legs in their eyes were bluffed.

Seeing the surging emotions of the people in the audience, Ma Weiqiu also happily threw the order in his hand to the ground, and said loudly: "Execution!" ”

Thirty-two brocade guards started together, two people served one, and Ling Chi began.

The sixteen who assisted in the execution first grabbed the eyelids of the sixteen grain merchants with their hands, and the person in charge of the execution cut off the eyelids with a knife.

Without the protection of the eyelids, the eyes could only turn around in the sockets, and the sixteen grain merchants howled in pain, but the executioner Jinyi Wei said expressionlessly: "Don't scream, if it's a man, take out a man's appearance, isn't it just to watch your flesh being stabbed by a knife, what's there?" ”

Then there were two pieces of flesh on the chest, and the blood that flowed from the eyes and the blood on the chest mixed together, and from the bodies of these sixteen grain merchants, thirty-two rivers of blood flowed out.

The Jinyi guards who carried out the execution didn't care, but the people watching the execution began to get excited. These bastards usually lick their bones and marrow to themselves, but now they have finally committed it in the hands of the Son of Heaven and have been chopped alive by the uncles of Jinyiwei, it is really happy, happy!

How can the screams of sixteen people suppress the applause of nearly 10,000 onlookers? All of a sudden, the entire Chang'an County was applauded.

Slowly, but I don't know who took the lead in shouting: "Long live the Holy Son of Heaven!" ”

As long as someone takes the lead, according to the herd mentality, many people watching the execution will start shouting together, and slowly the voices will become more and more uniform, but in the end, no one will look at the execution or not the execution, just shouting Long live the Holy Son of Heaven.

Tian Ergeng had already stood up, and said to Ma Weiqiu, who also stood up: "Can Master Ma see it?" I don't know where Master Ma is going next? ”

Ma Weichuan said: "What Your Majesty said is good, the people are like water, they can carry boats, and they can also capsize boats. After this matter, the official will go to Beijing first, and then go to the southeast. ”
