Chapter 104: Luo Yujiao's Decision II
"Your Majesty, please think twice." The officials below knelt down for the most part.
Luo Yujiao's authority comes not only from Zhang Xuan, but also from his father Luo Rucai.
Some things are indelible. The foundation of Great Xia was still laid by Luo Rucai. In addition, Luo Yujiao has the status of a prisoner, and Luo Yujiao is in the court, although the hundred officials feel uncomfortable, they do not dare to object.
It's just that Luo Yujiao did this, but it was related to the vital interests of many officials.
Why did Wu Weiye come out? Not only because he served as Zhang Xuan's lecturer and had a certain status in the imperial court, but also because many people in Jiangnan entrusted him.
No matter how apportioned the national debt is, those people who are struggling on the line of death will not be able to take their turn. It was digested by the local wealthy, and the most digested was Suzhou.
The reason is very simple, Suzhou is rich in the world.
With so many people supporting Wu Weiye, Wu Weiye felt very confident, not to mention that his family had already sent 500 taels of national debt, which made him feel very distressed.
Although the Wu family is rich, but in the Ming Xia Yi Dynasty, they have filled in a lot of money, not to mention Zhang Xuanqing's land, Wu Weiye has long felt that it is not as good as before.
Zhang Xuan was not in Jiangnan in this matter, and Zhang Zhen was sick again. Luo Yujiao is just a woman. Naturally, he was not afraid. Even if it doesn't work, you can use this one thing to gather a lot of popularity and win people's hearts.
In the future, he may not be able to be called a Wu Xiang.
It's just that Wu Weiye is also a prodigal son of flowers, a veteran of Fengyue, he has seen I don't know how many women, but he has never seen it, there is another kind of woman in the world, who is written as a beautiful lady and read as a tigress.
After Luo Yujiao married Zhang Xuan, she was always a noble lady who demanded herself. What manners, dress, etc., are all learned. It seems that if it weren't for his tall stature, he would be more like a Jiangnan than a Gangnam person.
When everyone in the world called the queen virtuous, they forgot that Luo Yujiao could be Luo Rucai's woman, who fought back desperately under Linying City and rescued Zhang Xuan's female general.
Luo Yujiao's eyes swept over, but she saw that although most of the people knelt down, there were still many people who did not kneel, about one-third.
First of all, none of the Privy Councillors knelt.
Of course, since the Northern Expedition, the Privy Council has moved to the front, and what remains in Nanjing is just an empty shelf.
Yao Qisheng did not kneel, some of the four departments of the household department behind him knelt, some did not kneel, and some of Zhang Xuan's henchmen, or the civil and military forces from Cao Ying did not kneel.
This part is either Zhang Xuan's diehard loyalists, or the Luo family's diehard loyalists, and some are people from the bottom who know what the so-called advance of next year's taxes means to the people.
Luo Yujiao's gaze swept around, fell on Wu Weiye, and said: "This palace has thought twice, but has Mr. Wu thought twice?" ”
Wu Weiye said: "For the sake of the Great Xia country, the minister has already thought about it, and this matter is absolutely not feasible. ”
"Okay." Luo Yujiao said: "Since this is the case, I can't blame me. Luo Yujiao actually drew her sword with her backhand, and stabbed a sword into Wu Weiye's chest.
Although Luo Yujiao has not killed people for many years, there is nothing wrong with the feel she has exercised since she was a child, the sword is accurate and ruthless, Wu Weiye did not react at all, looked down, and felt a pain in her heart, her eyes were dark, and she crawled on the ground.
Luoyang skillfully drew his sword, and the blood splashed out fell on the people around Wu Weiye, but not on Luo Yujiao.
Luo Yujiao lightly returned the sword into the sheath, took Zhang An's hand again, and said, "Who still has an opinion?" ”
The hall was silent, as if the pause button had been pressed, and many people were trembling with fright. No matter what they thought, they never thought that Luo Yujiao would draw her sword and kill people.
Luo Yujiao took Zhang An's hand, slowly sat on the dragon chair, and said: "This palace knows that this palace is not as good as Zhang Lang, without Zhang Lang's wisdom, if you face this situation, Zhang Lang has 10,000 ways to make you obedient." ”
"But there is only one way in this palace, and that is to kill."
"There are some things that the palace can do, but Wu Weiye can't do it, since Zhang Lang said it, you can't raise taxes until you have to do it, and now you have to do it?"
"Some people say that Suzhou is in chaos."
"Is it a mess?"
Luo Yujiao sneered: "Although the imperial court has transferred people and horses away, but the capital is not without a single soldier, even if there is really no soldier, there are three thousand palace guards in the palace and eight hundred female soldiers, which is enough to level Suzhou City." ”
"This palace has been cultivating for a long time, do you really think that this palace can't lift a knife and can't kill people?"
"Don't think that this palace doesn't know what you think."
"Zhang Lang has long said that tax collection requires a cost, and tax increase is the highest cost among them, the people are many and scattered, and they have to use the officials of various prefectures and counties, among which there are many places where they have their hands, but there are a few rich households in various places, dozens and hundreds, and the matter of national debts has always been dedicated to local officials?"
"At most, three or five rich households are implicated, and when Taizu raised his army today, he also fought the fence, but now it is just a different way to fight the fence."
"Didn't Wu Weiye say that the imperial court is a robbery!"
"Then the palace robbed it, how dare not give it?"
"The whole Wutang is willing to follow His Majesty and set foot in Suzhou." A man knelt on the ground and said.
When the Manchu Dynasty saw it, it was Sun Kewang.
Although Sun Kewang was sent to Beijing by Li Dingguo, Li Dingguo didn't want Sun Kewang to die, looking at Li Dingguo's face, Sun Kewang was suspended in the martial arts hall, no matter what, Sun Kewang has rich experience in fighting, and he can also have fun with more than 100,000 horses.
Although defeated
Li Dingguo, but now in Nanjing, I am afraid that there is no general who can defeat Sun Kewang.
After all, everything that can be fought is taken away.
A large number of officers have been recruited in the lecture hall, but there are still hundreds of officers, and with these hundreds of officers here, they only need to recruit the people, open the arsenal, and within a few days, they can form an army of 10,000 or 20,000.
The civil unrest in Suzhou on the flat ground is naturally more than rubbing.
Even the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty understood one thing, Jiangnan and the northwest were still different, the northwest chaos was a real sword soldier, and the Jiangnan chaos was just another five righteous soldiers, it was still possible to kill a handful of people, but in the face of a large army, they may not have the heart to fight, not to mention that the people of Suzhou do not have the heart to fight.
After all, the imperial court is only apportioned to the rich, and the common people don't have much money at all, how can they be willing to work hard, even the gentry will not be willing, because although money is important, what is the most important thing for the gentry everywhere?
Is it fame?
Are you afraid of having no money?
But once this matter becomes a big problem, I am afraid it will be another Qian Qianyi case.
As soon as Sun Kewang said this, the rest of the officials understood and said, "The ministers must obey the queen's decree." ”
Luo Yujiao smiled slightly and said: "Heaven has the virtue of a good life, and this palace doesn't want to use swords, so it's decided, don't want five million, tens of millions of yuan in national debt." ”
"What is not enough is to be covered with grain and cloth. However, it is not allowed to move the loom of real estate. And passed the decree to Liang Hong, who is good at doing things, and naturally has his future. ”
"But the future is given by this palace, but whether he can keep it depends on what he does? He didn't want to force the queen of the palace to settle accounts. ”
In this way, no one dares to deny it.
Luo Yujiao glanced indifferently and said, "Retreat." ”
immediately pulled Zhang An out of the main hall, and after going out, he asked Zhang An, "An'er, are you afraid?" ”
Zhang An shook his head and said, "Don't be afraid." ”
Luo Yujiao said: "It is worthy of being the descendant of my Luo family." ”
Luo Yujiao's will was immediately transmitted to Jiangnan.
When the news of Wu Weiye's killing in court came, Jiangnan lost his voice for a while. I don't know what to say about this queen. Naturally, they did not dare not accept the national debt.
I don't know if it's because the potential of the wealthy households in the south of the Yangtze River is very great, or if Liang Hong has changed his style, he has almost all the rich households in Suzhou Mansion, regardless of whether there are officials in the family or not.
With both hard and soft measures, he actually scraped together more than 2 million taels, and this time he apportioned nearly one-fifth of the national debt.
Just one day and one night later, the news of Nanjing also reached Luoyang. When Zhang Xuan heard that Luo Yujiao actually killed someone in the palace, he smiled bitterly for a while, this is too ungraceful, even if he kills, he can't be so hard.
It's just that the effect is very good, and there is a decision on whether to go north or south.
Jiangnan doesn't need him to sit in town.
