Chapter 327: The Dark Tide is Surging
In order to get rid of the predicament, some ministers of the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty actually used the reason that the volunteers did not obey the will of the imperial court and entered Yunnan and Guizhou without permission, so as to quell the scourge of the Yunnan Liukou and eradicate the situation of local warlords in Guizhou, so as to get rid of the current predicament and make the volunteers become the scapegoats for the failure of the third anti-Qing restoration movement.
When this kind of rumor spread, what the small court of Yongli in the Southern Ming Dynasty did not expect was that there was a surging tide against the imperial court in the local area.
At the time of the lantern, after everyone finished dinner, each brigade sat together according to the convention, and the captain organized and summarized the training results of the day and organized daily learning.
After reviewing the results of the day's training, Wu Xiandi, the captain of the 21st standard brigade in the 10th town, divided the brothers into two parts according to the usual practice, one part was led by the secretary to learn the language, and he himself led everyone to discuss current affairs.
Hearing that he was going to write this nasty text again, a squad leader shouted: "Captain, we adults are good at everything, but it's a little troublesome for everyone to read and hyphenation, you see, I'm a yellow tiger with a bear's back, and there is no ambiguity in fighting, but it's a bit troublesome to read and hyphenation."
Wu Xianqi patted Huang Sanhu on the shoulder and said, "Sanhu, why do you speak so without conscience?" We adults think about our brothers. You see, this time the soldiers entered the cloud (Nangui (state, those who are disabled and weak as long as they can read and break words, the squad leader, squadron leader, and captain are all promoted to government officers, and hundreds of ordinary soldiers who have made military exploits have also been promoted to officials, so although they are not rich and noble, but at least they have a head and face on the ground.
Those who can't read and write can send some bereavement benefits, or choose to return to their hometowns, or only serve as errand workers.
Adults don't often say that although it is difficult to read and hyphenate words, it is still a little simpler than bloodshed on the battlefield and desperate on the battlefield. ”
Huang Sanhu cried with a sad face, pouted and sighed: "Captain Wu, of course our brothers know that adults are good to everyone, didn't they say in the past that good men are not soldiers, and good iron is not nailed?" Now we are not only honored to be soldiers, but also very well paid.
Two days ago, my parents brought me a letter and asked me to wait and follow the adults, and everyone said that the adults are immortals, saints who have not been born for 500 years, and adults are going to be emperors."
Wu Xianqi was stunned in his heart, patted Huang Sanhu's shoulder and said, "Three tigers, brothers, the adult is a character like Yue Wumu, and the adult really didn't say anything to everyone."
Although many of our brothers were subordinates of Yang Zhan's general army in the past, the adults did not treat everyone as outsiders, and we, as the brothers of the 9th town of the Volunteer Army, must defend our adults in whatever we say, so as not to be framed by those traitors. ”
When everyone heard this, they shouted again and again.
Wu Xianqi looked at Huang Sanhu and the others with a smile, and sighed: "Everyone, the traitors in the court are in charge, not only are the adults not rewarded for their great achievements, but some traitors and villains are even spreading rumors and saying bad things about adults in front of the emperor." ”
Huang Sanhu shook his head and said: "Captain, it is rumored in the army that some traitors are not dead, and they attack adults in a frenzy.
In the past, those powerful people did not need to pay the land and the Ding Fu at all, and the ordinary people not only had to pay three salaries, but also apportioned everyone in this way and there was no way to live, since the adults came to power, they settled the displaced people, cleared the land, and cleaned up the household registration, and the common people now only need to pay the three salaries, just because of this, those shameless villains are angry and play right and wrong in front of the emperor. ”
When everyone heard this, they sighed, and some people said: "My lord is too good to us poor people, in the past, when I was a soldier, I would pay money like now, but now our volunteers are not only paid high in silver, but also well equipped, and my lord is really good to us." ”
Another person sighed: "Of course, there is no problem for adults to be good to us, but if the sky does not fall to the ground, there is no birth, how did we get these military salaries?"
In the past, in every market, there were some ruffians who pretended to be white servants, and they ran rampant in the market, putting the silver that should have been collected from the government treasury into their pockets, or using it to honor the corrupt officials.
It's good to be an adult, just set up a township office to collect taxes by yourself, and because of this, there is money in the yamen, and we can pay military salaries on time. ”
Everyone talked about it, but they all expressed their support for Yang Xuan's logo and the new policy.
When Huang Sanhu heard this, he took the lead and shouted: "Brothers, there has been no dynasty that will not perish since ancient times, Emperor Chongzhen was killed by the Liukou, Emperor Hongguang, Emperor Longwu, and Emperor Shaowu were killed by the Barbarian Qing one after another.
And we adults can only say good to us, to our families, to our poor people, just as my parents said, there has never been an emperor who has been so good to us since ancient times.
And how did the emperor do it to our adults, the first to issue a holy decree saying that he would be with the adults in Yunnan, but now he is actually playing adults, and only appointing adults as the governors of the four provinces of Sichuan, Shaanxi, Gansu and Yunnan, isn't this bullying?
The adults hit Haoqiang and implemented the new policy for the sake of our poor people having something to eat, but those traitors didn't do anything all day long until they slandered the adults.
Ladies and gentlemen, in that case, why don't we support your lord as our emperor? ”
This can be said to their own hearts, and when everyone heard it, they shouted one after another, asking for the establishment of the emperor as the emperor.
Wu Xianqi was shocked, of course he knew that it was not a trivial matter to be called the emperor, and now when he heard Huang Sanhu say this, his voice trembled and said: "Huang Sanhu, you dare to say this kind of rebellious words, you, you?" ”
Huang Sanhu looked confident and said: "Captain, the adult is a saint who has not been born for five hundred years, and only the adult is called the emperor and we poor people have a way out."
Go, go, let's go to the generals, and we support the lord to be the emperor. ”
Wu Xianqi was still quite surprised, and pressed the handle of the knife with both hands and said: "You, Huang Sanhu, why are you like this, don't mess around, this is a matter of losing your head, Huang Sanhu, don't mess around?" ”
Huang Sanhu crossed his hands on his waist and said: "Captain, you are ungrateful, you used to be just a poor talent who had a meal but no next meal, if it weren't for an adult, you would have been killed by a thug."
Brothers, I don't know that adults are not saints who have not been born for 500 years?
The one who didn't know that the current emperor was mediocre, and the traitors in the court were desperately trying to frame the adults like Qin Hui back then.
Brothers, if the adults fall, the New Deal will be gone, and all of us will have no way to live.
Brothers, for the sake of the adults, for the sake of our volunteers, and for the sake of our ordinary people, we go to petition and support the adults to become emperors. ”
When everyone heard this, they also shouted loudly, Wu Xiandi was afraid that something would happen, so he had to send someone to ask the general manager.
The general general heard that the soldiers would support this kind of thing, and he didn't dare to be self-dictated, so he reported it layer by layer, first to the 21st standard general Lou Yi, and then to the 10th town deputy general Feng Youqing.
Feng Youqing felt a lot, as a non-descendant general, he felt that although the adults trusted him, he seemed to be wary of himself intentionally or unintentionally.
Now when I hear that my soldiers are making a fuss about supporting the stand, I don't know what to do for a while.
And at this time, the Governor Yamen Experience Division experienced Ren Su and the county magistrate Jin Weixin were drinking tea in the teahouse next to them, thinking of Ren Su's various behaviors in the past few months, Feng Youqing was shocked and hurriedly sent someone to invite him to discuss.
When Ren Su heard this, he seemed quite happy and said: "The current emperor only knows how to blindly run away and blindly suppress our adults, and now he has long lost his popularity.
The adults implemented the new policy and received all the money embezzled by the local ruffians, hooligans, corrupt officials and corrupt officials into the government treasury, so that not only the burden on the common people was reduced, but also the government had more money and food to form an army to crusade against the rogues and the Tartars.
Just like the Shu Kingdom, Zhuge Liang was a hundred times more able than the queen and ten times as good as Cao Pi, but he blindly guarded the righteousness of the monarch and the ministers, and finally returned from Qishan in vain.
Now that the great man is ten times more talented than Dorgon, we should do our best to achieve this. ”
Feng Youqing was shocked, wiped the beads of sweat from his face and said, "Ren experience, you, do you really think it's okay?" ”
Ren Su's heart was up and down, but he still seemed quite determined: "Emperor Yongli is suspicious of your lordship, and he is suspicious of our volunteer army for a long time, and he opposes the new policy, and now the situation is more clear.
The adults are just afraid of the righteousness of the monarch and the ministers, and everyone can imagine the annoyance in their hearts. ”
Feng Youqing shook his head and said: "Even so, I can't wade into this troubled water, even if we succeed, future generations may be counted." ”
Ren Su looked at Feng Youqing and sighed: "General Feng said something that he didn't understand, you and I are not adults, of course we need to win the trust of adults."
Now the world is in turmoil, and there are too many things to support, and since ancient times, the merit is greater than the salvation of the saints, and the merit is greater than the support.
Zhejiang people support the Lu Wang Jian State, Longdong Hui people support the Zhu Miao descendant Jian Guo, our volunteer army is in the southwest, how can it fall under the people?
The adult is different from others, the eldest princess is the wife of the adult, and now the Shu Wangfu has been destroyed, just like the people, the grandson can also inherit the incense when he enters the grandfather's house. ”
Thinking of Ren Su's various behaviors in the past few months, Feng Youqing was shocked, could it be that all this was performed by Ren Su?
The Governor-General's Yamen Experience Division was drinking tea on the left, and in his own military camp, there was such a thing as a pro-establishment.
said that it was not necessary that this trouble was started by Ren Su's gang, thinking of this, Feng Youqing didn't dare to shirk anymore, and immediately discussed, contacted their colleagues, and supported the adults no matter what.
This morning, Yang Xuan had just come to the big camp to sit down, wondering why the main staff, the deputy generals and staff of the towns, didn't come to see him according to the usual practice?
At this moment, Qian Bangqian ran in angrily and said, "My lord, how can this "Popular Magazine" be like this? is so positive and disparaging current affairs.
You see, here is a satire of the martyrdom system of the dynasty, saying that it is quite shameful for a living person to bury Confucius, and after Li Chengdong's death, the emperor actually ordered more than ten concubines to be cremated, which is really cruel.
Also, it is explained here that the dynasty has implemented a martyrdom system since the founding of the country, and emperors such as Hong Wuye, Yongle Ye, and Xuanzong have all implemented the martyrdom system of harem concubines.
…”
Zhang Lang, who was waiting next to him, heard this and retorted: "Lord Qian, is it wrong? We are all disciples of Confucius, and of course we adhere to the righteousness of Confucianism.
The Master resolutely opposed the burial of the living, and even if some people later used figurines to be martyred, the Master also resolutely opposed it, criticizing the person who took the lead in using the figurines as the initiator, and criticized him greatly. ”
Qian Bangxin was speechless when asked, arched his hand and shook his head again and again: "Zhang Lang, what the old man said is not what he meant. ”
Yang Xuan took the newspaper and said, "Brother Qian, don't you mean that?"
Brother Qian was born in the Donglin Party, isn't the Donglin Party praising and deprecating current affairs?
In addition to reporting the holy decree of the imperial court and the deeds of the volunteer army, the "Popular Magazine" rarely reports other things. ”
Qian Bangqi sighed: "My lord, you have implemented these new policies, such as the parliamentary system, such as the collection of commercial taxes, mining taxes, and income taxes, and the ministers of the imperial court have always been quite opposed, plus the adults have made great achievements.
And the people and parliaments of the various departments of the Ming army mostly demanded that adults supervise the country, and some even asked adults to stand on their own feet.
In this case, the "Popular Periodical" published a document openly ridiculing the government and government, which was inevitably manipulated by many well-intentioned people. ”
Yang Xuan sighed and said: "Brother Qian, you know that I am very busy every day, and I get up early in the morning to discuss with everyone in the drawing room, so it can be said that I either sit in the drawing room or lead everyone to inspect all day long, this, I definitely don't know about these articles." ”
Qian Bangqi sighed and said: "My lord, I know that you don't know, but, but this, the war is in full swing, don't cause internal division."
Although some lords of the imperial court are selfish and selfish, we are afraid that the power of the adults will be too heavy.
My lord, do you know that since last night, the staff officers of each battalion have been out in all directions, and everyone is in tandem, ready to support your lord and become emperor. ”
Yang Xuan was shocked, looked at Qian Bangqi in surprise and said, "Brother Qian, you're not joking, are you?"
Isn't it a joke to be called the emperor and occupy the territory of Yunguichuan and be called the emperor? ”
Qian Bangxin was slightly stunned, and was about to speak, when there was a noise outside, and the escort Ma Wannian hurriedly walked over and said, "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, the general situation is not good."
According to the inspection of Jiang Ding Town, Gui (Yang Governor Zhou Zheng, senior senator Fan Ying, Wu Yanghu, Wang Xiang and others led more than 100 fathers and old squires of Gui (Yang.
Adjutant generals Feng Youqing and Wang Zhibang led the officers and soldiers to kneel under the steps and begged their brother-in-law to receive them. ”
Yang Xuan looked quite puzzled, shook his head and said, "This, what's going on?" Why did they run to the yamen and kneel?"
Ma Wannian shook his head and said, "Brother-in-law, I don't know about this." ”
