Text 144.Zhang Jing's Three Deadly Sins
Zhang Ping was full of remorse in his heart, he patronized and ran for help and came back, how could he forget about Xiao Jiu, Xiao Jiu spent a thousand yuan to buy orchid incense back, and his father immediately promoted him to be a thousand households, and he directly said how good a thousand yuan is. This is a 2,000-thousand-pound ride for nothing.
All night, Zhang Jing didn't sleep well, because he thought about how to tell Chen Shu. Early the next morning, Zhang Jing came to the Yamen of the Judicial Division and wanted to meet Chen Shu in person, but was told that Chen Shu had been called away by the Qin Mission. Zhang Jing had no choice but to go home.
Chen Shu was indeed called away by Li Shu, but Chen Shu did not go to Qin to travel to Xingyuan, but came to the Yanwang Mansion with Li Shu.
Seeing King Yan, Li Shu only greeted him symbolically, and then said directly: "Lord Wang, the pension list of the fallen soldiers you took out before, I went back and checked with the Beiping Dusi newspaper, and the two directories are very different." ”
Zhu Di was stunned: "How come?" The list is directly reported by the guards after each war, so there should be no problem. ”
Li Shu smiled: "It's not that there is a problem with the prince's list, is it possible that the officers below have omitted it?" Or, some of the wounded soldiers were not killed at the time, but died on the way back due to lack of medical care. ”
Zhu Di shook his head: "There will be no mistakes, I have specially instructed and explained this matter, the soldiers killed the enemy in blood, and they can't let the souls and their families chill." When in the grassland, the soldiers who died in battle will be recorded after being counted by each guard, and the king of each battle has a special person to summarize the statistics. If a wounded soldier dies due to lack of medical treatment, the guards will report it afterwards, and the list will definitely be recorded. ”
"Then it's obvious." Li Shu seemed to have a conclusion, hesitated for a moment and said: "If there are no errors or omissions in the list of princes, then it can be determined that the number of people falsely reported by the Beiping Metropolitan Division is as many as 800 people. ”
Eat empty salary! Chen Shu, who was sitting on the side, immediately flashed this thought in his mind. Zhang Jing is so bold that he dares to falsely report as many as 800 people, which is really an out-and-out huge greed. Just thinking about it, he suddenly heard Li Shu call himself: "Lord Chen, I heard that you caught a few Mongol spies during the period when you were acting as a political envoy to defend the city?" ”
Chen Shu sighed: "I have arrested a few, and one of the spies has already gotten important news, fortunately, it is caught, otherwise the whereabouts of our army will be leaked to the Mongols." ”
"To know the whereabouts of our army, presumably their source should not be an ordinary junior officer, but a senior general who knows the movements of our army." Li Shu said.
Chen Shu nodded: "The lower officials also thought so, but those people were strict and ruthless, and they refused to say anything, at that time, the lower officials had a lot of affairs, and they were also negligent, and there was no continuous interrogation, so as a result, those people were killed." ”
"So, there must be their accomplices in Beiping City!" Kuri Shu asked.
Chen Shu nodded: "It can be said that the official has also been investigating, but there are no clues yet." ”
Li Shu turned to ask Zhu Di: "Lord Wang, do you think that the one who provided important information to the Mongols will appear in the Beiping Dusi, and will it be a high-level general who knows the top secrets of our army?" ”
If the hat of collusion with the Mongols is fastened on Zhang Jing's head, Zhang Jing will definitely die, but at this time, Zhu Di remembered the conversation with Yao Guangqi yesterday, and at this time, Li Shu must not be allowed to see that he is doing the game, let alone let the emperor notice that he has any discord with Zhang Jing, so he shook his head: "This king has been paying attention to the study of the Mongols' internal struggle for power recently.
How can you care about those irrelevant little people. ”
Li Shu turned his head to Chen Shu again and said: "I heard a strange news last night, Lord Zhang's son was jealous of people in a brothel, and he actually set fire to the brothel, this matter is now known to the whole of Beiping, the lawsuit has reached Beiping Mansion, does Lord Chen know?" ”
Chen Shu nodded: "The lower official also knew about this last night, the case is now in Beiping Mansion, and the lower official will ask about it when he goes back." ”
Li Shu said again: "What I want to say is not about burning brothels, it is said that some people at the scene heard that the son-in-law of Lord Zhang was drunk and yelled before the fight, and even shouted how much is a thousand households, how much is a hundred households? What does Zhang Gongzi mean by this? Could it be that the officials of the Beiping Metropolitan Division can buy it now? ”
Seeing Zhu Di and Chen Shu looking at him in surprise, Li Shu said coldly: "I heard that the streets of Beiping are now discussing the vacant official positions of the Beiping Metropolitan Division, and now it is priced according to the level, one hundred households will bid five hundred yuan, and one thousand households will bid five thousand yuan. Although these rumors are not accurate, but when compared with what Mr. Zhang said after drinking in a brothel, I am afraid it is not completely false. ”
"Selling the official mantle? And the list price? Chen Shu looked at Li Shu in surprise.
Li Shu Zhengse said: "This official was ordered this time only to check the actual money and grain accounts of the Beiping Treasury Mansion, but I didn't expect to come this time, there was such a big harvest, but at the moment the official has no conclusive evidence, it's hard to say anything, please Lord Chen must be careful, collect relevant evidence and testimony, don't wronged Zhongliang, and don't escape the traitor." ”
Chen Shu nodded, but he inadvertently saw Yan Wang Zhu Di raise his face and look at the ceiling, Chen Shu also raised his eyelids and looked up, but he didn't see anything.
On the eighth day of the lunar month, this is the coldest time of the year, as the old saying goes, the chin freezes off the chin. Generally at this time, people in the north rarely go out
But in the Qincha line, a group of people knelt in the middle of the courtyard in the cold wind, waiting for the will.
After the decree was announced, Li Shu invited Zhu Di into the house, holding the decree in both hands, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to King Yan, Your Majesty is more and more important to you, and controls all military affairs in Beiping. ”
Zhu Di also smiled reservedly: "Your Majesty trusts, this king is both a son and a courtier, so he naturally wants to share his father's worries and contribute to the court, but this power is great, and this heart is not steady." ”
Li Shu turned his head to look at Chen Shu: "Since Your Majesty is urging, please ask Lord Chen to step up, have Zhang Jing's father and son confessed?" After the confession, let's conclude the trial as soon as possible, and everyone will have a good year. ”
Chen Shu nodded: "The lower officials have stepped up their interrogation for several days, and they have roughly already had eyebrows, and the treasures in Zhang Jing's family have now been decided, who sent them, and why they sent them, there are already eighty or ninety percent of them that can be determined." Zhang Jing only admitted that he had reported the vacancy of 100 people, and refused to admit that he had overreported 800 people, and that he had secretly colluded with Mongolian spies, but Zhang Jing never admitted it. ”
Li Shu said coldly: "Only admit a hundred, what is the difference between falsely reporting eight hundred and falsely reporting one hundred?" Does he think that if he admits less than seven hundred, the emperor can open the net? ”
Two days later, it was the day when Qin Cha Li Shu returned to Beijing, Qin Cha Guards escorted Zhang Jing and his son to go first, Yan Wang led the officials of Beiping to send Li Shu outside the city, after the two sides exchanged pleasantries, Li Shu said goodbye and embarked on the road back to the south.
Yao Guangqi and Zhu Neng stood in the crowd of ordinary people, looking at Qin Cha
The guard of honor walked away, and Zhu Neng smiled proudly: "If you go to Zhang Jing's elbow and armpit problem, there will be no constraints in Beiping in the future." ”
Yao Guangqi didn't smile: "Have you noticed, when I said goodbye just now, there seemed to be a smile on that Qincha's face, which was very intriguing." ”
Zhu Neng turned his head to look at Yao Guangqi: "What, do you think this Qincha may return to Beijing to overturn the case for Zhang Jing?" ”
Yao Guangqi looked up at the sky with a smile: "It's going to snow again, and the sky is unpredictable." ”
When the two of them returned to Yanwang's Mansion, it was already ten times dinner, and they were about to eat, when they saw Linglong walk in with a solemn face: "Zhang Yu is not with you?" ”
Seeing that the two shook their heads, Linglong frowned and said: "Yesterday when we discussed the matter of continuing to select people in the army, he didn't show up, and he didn't show up when he sent Qin to the army today, which is too abnormal." ”
Zhu Neng said with a smile: "What are you looking for him?" Maybe he went to a horse farm to choose a horse on a whim, or to choose an elite knight, and he kept saying that he would train the flying cavalry. ”
Before Linglong could speak, she saw Wen Zhixin come in, and walked in front of Yao Guangqi with a smile: "There are two things to look for you, the first thing, Miss Chen came to the door today to inquire about Li Rou's news, I was a little curious, I didn't dare to say anything, it was a support." But I can say hello to you, that Miss Chen is big-tempered, and your Miss Li is weak, you have to look good. ”
"What?" Yao Guangqi had a big head as soon as he heard Chen Yueru and Li Rou, he was busy with Zhang Jing's affairs a while ago, and he didn't have time to explain to Chen Yueru, it seems that he must explain clearly, otherwise the misunderstanding may become deeper and deeper. was thinking about how to explain to Chen Yueru, when Wen Zhixin said again: "Here, someone sent a note to the house today, indicating it to you." ”
Yao Guangqi took it and looked at it, and there were only a few words on the note: "Peach Blossom Town, there are still promises to be made." Then he frowned and asked, "What kind of person is coming?" ”
Wen Zhixin said: "It's said that it's a very ordinary person, nothing special. ”
Yao Guangqi hurriedly returned to Wang Mao's six houses, the old monk and the old Taoist priest were there, "Two masters, do you know Peach Blossom Town?" Yao Guangqi couldn't wait to ask.
Bu Operator said: "Do you remember something in Peach Blossom Town?" The old Taoist priest knows a little bit about Peach Blossom Town, but it's all old things, and now the rivers and lakes have changed, not when I was back then, so you have to go back to the mountains by yourself, old monk, will you go live with me for a few days? ”
Yao Guangqi showed the note to the two, and explained to Monk Pudu: "At that time in Peach Blossom Town, that person had mentioned two additional conditions: the first thing was for us to find a person, who was the son of Zhang Shicheng back then, and the difficulty was that this son was taken away from disaster as soon as he was born, and no one has ever seen it, and there is only one characteristic......" Speaking of this, Yao Guangqi couldn't help but touch his head, and his hair seemed to have grown a little.
Yao Guangqi hesitated for a moment and then said: "The second thing is for us to send a letter, the letter is for the emperor, and the letter proposes two things, one is to ask for the life of the people of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and ask the emperor to reduce the tax burden in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Second, it is necessary to expose a stubborn corruption disease in the DPRK and China. ”
Monk Pudu said: "I was going to tell you after the New Year, but since I came to the door to remind you, then I will talk about it, the people of Peach Blossom Town are looking for you to do these two things, and the purpose is not easy to speculate, but the Jiangsu and Zhejiang generations have always had a heavy tax burden, and there has been an undercurrent in the past few years, and in a few years, I am afraid that there will be chaos." And the ones who provoked the chaos were probably three powerful gangs. ”
