The atmosphere instantly became solemn.

Cao Huachun subconsciously wiped the sweat on his head.

Anyway, he wants to cry without tears now, since Wang An fell, he finally escaped death, suffered in Nanjing for many years, and finally relied on his old friendship with Liu Shimin to get this good errand that can be said to be very oily.

Look at this sabre-rattling.

"Hou Hejian, why do you keep targeting us?"

Xu Fuyuan couldn't bear to say.

Chen Zilong wanted to stop him from continuing, but was stopped by Xu Xiake, at this point, just say anything, anyway, it is a foregone conclusion that the two sides will tear their faces, there is no need to compromise anymore, they are destined to fight, do you need to care about any face?

Yang Xin also blocked Yang Huan and the others, and sat there looking at Xu Fuyuan with interest.

"Hejian Hou, we have no grievances and no enemies, indeed, Yang Lian and the others originally wanted to deal with you, but that was what they had to do, the Su Song gentry did support the Donglin Party, but we are in Jiangnan, we can't know what they are doing at all, and the matter of moving the palace was only transmitted here after you arrested Li Sancai. There is no one here who conspires with Yang Lian and them, and there is no one who conspires with them, Guangmiao reigned for only a month, and he died suddenly, and we were already seriously ill when we got the news of Guangmiao's accession to the throne.

We didn't even know that Yang Lian was valued by the Light Temple.

The matter of moving the palace has nothing to do with us.

As for Ye Maocai presiding over the interception and killing of you, we also have no one knowing.

Gao Panlong did know that he did organize it behind the scenes in Wuxi, including hiring Yi people to assassinate, and these were indeed conspired by Qian Shisheng and him.

But what they did has nothing to do with us.

And they also paid the price for this, and the revenge you should have taken has also been avenged, and several things since then, including what Huang Shu did, the assassination of you, and even the matter of the capital, you have killed the people you should have killed, and you have also copied those who should have copied, and we have not stopped you.

Even if you want to reform the customs, we will honestly contract the customs to pay taxes, and if you want to add those new taxes, we will also pay them honestly, and we will send tax supervisors at the age of 9,000, and we will honestly endure it. Even in order to satisfy you, the Yang family's Qianzhuang merchant fleet is also no one dares to mess with Su Song, we think we are already very humble in front of you, with a smile on our faces to give you everything you want.

We all feel like dogs.

We are like a pack of dogs desperately wagging their tails at you and begging for mercy.

But why didn't you let us go? ”

Xu Fuyuan said.

"I just want to go forward to Hangzhou, how can I not let you go?"

Yang Xin said innocently.

"Hejian Hou, when you arrive in Suzhou, will you turn Wen Zhenmeng and Chen Renxi's two fields into militia?"

Yang Tingshu said with disdain.

"This still has to be changed, according to what was said when the house was raided, it should have been changed in the winter, and now this has been delayed until the summer, Your Majesty can't lose faith in the people, those tenants are very anxious."

Yang Xin said.

"So what else do we have to say?"

Yang Tingshu said.

"Does this have anything to do with you?"

Yang Xin said.

"Yes, yes."

Xu Xiake said.

"When the Marquis of Hejian set up the Wuxi militia district, we did think that it had nothing to do with us, but the result was the Red Turban Army, it was the entire Wujin and Zhenjiang gentry who lost everything, and a quarter of the Jiangyin gentry also lost everything, so after you turned the millions of acres of land of the Chen family in Wencheng into a militia area, you are ready to wait a few more years to let the Suzhou gentry lose everything they have?

After you turn Li Yingsheng's more than 100,000 acres of land into a militia area, wait a few more years for our Xu family to lose everything like the Wu family?

We're all watching what you've done.

The sky is watching, too.

Don't take us all for fools.

If you push a dog into a hurry, it will bite too, and we can't stop you from persecuting us with our tail wagging, so we have to use our fangs.

It's what you forced. ”

He went on to say.

"Fangs."

Yang Xin said with a smile.

"Yes, our fangs, here are seventeen thousand regiments, we have almost two hundred cannons, ten thousand muskets, and our soldiers will not surrender, if you continue to move forward, then we have no choice but to use these to defend our homeland, to defend the land left by our ancestors.

Hejian Hou, can you let each other go?

Do you want to watch the flames of war burn on this land?

What's in it for you?

Even if the land in Jiangnan becomes Huangtian, it is not you who really gets the benefits in the end, if you can't win against us, then as the culprit of the trouble in Jiangnan, what good results do you think you have? Since Your Majesty has given you the Holy Decree to go to Jiangxi, why don't you go? Why do you have to come here to do something that is not destined to be beneficial? You let us go, and you let yourself go.

If you have other requests, you can ask them.

We don't want to be your enemy.

If your request is acceptable to us, then we are willing to give you what you want. ”

Yang Tingshu said.

"The gentry pay the grain as an errand, and the slaves and maids also pay taxes?"

Yang Xin said.

"We can go back and discuss."

Yang Tingshu gritted his teeth and said.

"Rent reduction and interest reduction, private rent shall not exceed forty percent, and usury shall strictly follow the rules of Taizu?"

Yang Xin said.

"What does this have to do with you?"

Xu Xiake said.

"I like it!"

Yang Xin said very purely.

"We don't like it!"

Xu Xiake answered him very dryly.

The gentry can be considered as an errand to pay food, anyway, in the end, the wool comes out of the sheep, including the slaves and maids to pay taxes, and how much tax they pay is still passed on to the tenants, but the rent reduction and interest reduction is pure nonsense.

"You see, you don't agree to my request."

Yang Xin said.

"That's because your request is so unreasonable."

Xu Fuyuan said.

"Taizu's rules are unreasonable? Speak responsibly, usury interest is set by Taizu. ”

Yang Xin said.

"Taizu didn't force the rent."

Yang Tingshu said.

"Yes, but Taizu will kill all of you, you should be content, you didn't have the time of Taizu, when you set up Taizu, you all destroyed the door, and all the people who did not destroy the door moved to Fengyang to open up the wasteland, you are a good time to spread it, if Taizu doesn't use anything else, check the number of your slaves and maids, all of them are the sin of raiding the house and destroying the door. Don't run away from any of the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River, Taizu will happily raid all of you and then exile you to the frontier to open up the wasteland, and then distribute your land to the tenants as a re-endowment of official land, so Yang is not as good as Taizu!

Yang still kills too little.

Moreover, the land rent set by Yang for the militia was too high. ”

Yang Xin said.

That's what Zhu Yuanzhang really did.

Fourteen million wealthy families were relocated at one time to enrich Fengyang.

These 140,000 are all the big families in the south of the Yangtze River, and then the land they left behind was not official land, that is, the so-called re-endowment official land, but these re-endowment official fields did not belong to the government, but to the peasants who cultivated and then made them pay higher taxes than the real private land. However, these official fields are allowed to be traded, which was negligent by Zhu Yuanzhang, and the final result was that the original re-endowment of official land that was beneficial to the country and the people became a trap for the people in the process of land annexation.

Zhu Yuanzhang has been doing this all his life.

casually find some crimes, raid the big families in the south of the Yangtze River, turn the land into re-endowed official land, and then forcibly send people to the north to open up wasteland, and then he happily collects heavy taxes, and those farmers who farm the land happily do not have to pay rent, they are happy at the same time, it is the cry of those big families on the migration road.

Therefore, the wealthy families in Jiangnan gritted their teeth against him, and took black Zhu Yuanzhang for fun for generations.

Although they eventually changed the sky.

But this feud really can't be resolved.

"Since Hejian Hou has moved out of Taizu, then we really have nothing to talk about!"

Xu Xiake said.

Since he publicly said that he wanted to learn from Zhu Yuanzhang, what do you have to talk about with him?

There is no room for compromise with each other at all, what is the Ming Taizu, the Ming Taizu is to be respected in the mouth, but anyone who dares to learn from the Ming Taizu is the enemy of the gentry.

"Hejian Hou, farewell!"

Xu Fuyuan said.

After saying that, he was the first to leave.

"Hejian Hou, it seems that I will only see you on the battlefield!"

Yang Tingshu said.

After saying that, he also turned and left.

Then Xu Xiake and Chen Zilong also left, no one saluted, and Xu Xiake turned around and sneered when he got on the boat, and then snatched his saber from Yang Huan's hand, and threw it handsomely in mid-air to catch it and make a false chop......

"I don't know any politeness!"

Yang Xin said dissatisfied.

"Master Hou, these guys are strange, they know that this is the result, but they still run to humiliate themselves, they are just a bunch of fools."

Cao Huachun said grovelling with a smiling face.

"People, there will always be some illusions, what we need is to make them mature."

Yang Xin said.

However, Cao Huachun is not bad, these people are indeed a little inexplicable, it is said that they do not know the results of the negotiations, but it is really a little naïve to come to talk, of course, it may also be that they are really forced to have no choice, after all, they are not very bold, and they are also very afraid of going to war with him, and they still fantasize about not fighting if they can not fight.

"Let's go, go back and prepare to attack, since they want to meet us on the battlefield, then see you on the battlefield, Lao Cao, you also withdraw ......"

Yang Xin got up and said.

Before he finished speaking, he turned his head in astonishment, and in the rice fields on the east bank of the canal, six clouds of gunpowder smoke rose in gray and white, and almost at the same time accompanied by the sound of gunfire, six bullets whistled, one hit him in the heart and hit the bulletproof steel plate in his chest, and the other hit his face with the movement of his head, and the huge force instantly brought blood and flesh to splash......
