Now, after receiving the official letter from the governor's yamen, most of them came with trepidation, and a few sent their sons and nephews to attend the meeting on the grounds of poor health.

To everyone's surprise, after arriving in Kunming City, everyone undoubtedly received a meeting schedule, indicating the time of the meeting of the governor and the political envoy, the time of the meeting of Penghou, and the schedule of the conference.

Looking at the meeting schedule handed over by the official officer, Nong Yingzu of the Guangnan Nong clan looked at the Chinese characters listed on it and listened to a Busu explain beside him: "My lord, I ask you to go to the Yamen of the political envoy to meet the political envoy at the beginning of tomorrow.

At noon the day after tomorrow, I will go to the governor's yamen to make an oath, oh, there is a covenant here. ”

Guangnan Nong is one of the three major toasts in the south of the cloud, and one of the oldest toasts in the south, the surname Nong was originally a big surname in central Yunnan, and was rewarded as a pillar by the king at that time when he was still in the Nanzhao Kingdom.

When Kublai Khan, the ancestor of the Yuan dynasty, conquered Dali, the Nong clan betrayed the Great Song Dynasty and surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, and was appointed as the leader of Temo Dao, becoming the ancestor of Guangnan Tusi.

When Mu Ying and others entered Yunnan, the Nong clan betrayed the Yuan Dynasty again, so he was appointed as the Tongzhi of Guangnan Prefecture, which had four major Busu (cabinet ministers) in charge of military, administrative, financial and internal affairs. Tusi has the right to deal with local civil and criminal cases, and there are security forces and prisons in the ya, and there is a drum booth at the entrance of the house, and the people can beat the drum to complain.

In the eleventh year of Chongzhen, Feng Ke was meritorious, and he was appointed as the prefect of Guangnan Prefecture.

Nong Yingzu was personally in charge of military affairs, and his army was known as "36 battalions", with a capacity of 100 people per battalion, and the soldiers led by the Tusi every time they were called out to fight were more than 3,000 people.

In Wang Zhibang town to attack Guang (Xifu pinched the toast, Nong Yingzu (when Wu Sangui rebelled, Nong Yingzu saw that Wu Sangui had gone, led his troops to participate in the war, and captured Hu Guozhu alive) had sent more than 1,000 native soldiers to participate in the battle, who expected that the volunteers had fierce firepower, and in less than a day, they broke through the pinching and recruiting toast of five or six hundred native soldiers, and more than 100 members of the Tusi family were all killed.

Seeing the prosperity of the volunteers, Nong Yingzu was unexpected, and in order to protect the interests of his family, he sent more than 1,000 local soldiers to assist the volunteers in pursuing the Liukou.

Ten days ago, the governor of the Yamen Gongwen Nong Yingzu asked him to go to Kunming to see Penghou, which was really shocking, and he wondered if the conspiracy was discovered, and the volunteers wanted to settle accounts after the autumn.

Returned to the Guangnan Tusi Mansion and convened a meeting of the four major Busu to discuss, and there were different opinions, but they all believed that now Yun (the three major Tusi in the south, the Wuding Feng clan has been deprived of the rights of the Wuding prefect and is withering, if you don't go this time, it is likely to be deprived of the right of the Tongzhi of the Guangnan Mansion.

If you are deprived of the knowledge of Guangnan Prefecture, you can only rebel like your ancestors, otherwise the family will gradually wither.

For the sake of the family's interests, Nong Yingzu gave the affairs of the Tusi Mansion to his eldest son Nong Shaozhou to take care of, and brought more than 200 local soldiers and Zhou Dabusu to Kunming City.

Listening to Zhou Da Busu's reading, Nong Yingzu breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Oh, it's not the one who killed the head, it turned out that he was going to swear an oath?" ”

Zhou Dabusu shook his head and said, "My lord, the Han people have always been cunning, who knows if they will come up with any ghost ideas?"

My lord, you should be very careful when you see the political envoy, don't say what you shouldn't say, the Han people will report it, otherwise, we are afraid of causing trouble.

Also, if you mention that you don't hide it when you support the pinching toast that day, you will say that you thought that the rogue attacked the pinching toast, and you raised troops to quell the rebellion, and after hearing that it was the volunteers, you led the army back.

You must know that the Han people pay attention to repaying grievances with virtue, they are above the top, as long as you pretend to be obedient, there is nothing left. ”

Nong Yingzu nodded, pondered for a moment and said, "Da Busu, what is this oath?" You talk about it."

Zhou Da Busu said while watching: "My lord, I want to be loyal to the Tusi law, and if there is any disobedience, I am willing to accept the treatment made by the government." ”

When Nong Yingzu heard this, he was happy and said: "Oh, you Han people are like this, you like to play with words, and you are as straightforward as our toast."

I am the same knowledge of Quang Nam Prefecture, I am the law, what is this Tusi Law talking about? ”

Zhou Bu Su Ye opened the book and said: "My lord, this is the "Tusi Law", which lists the four major rights of our Tusi, which are "the world governs its place, the world enters its stream, the world is subject to its seal, and the world is unified by its soldiers"

In addition to these four benefits, we are also required to abide by twenty rules, which is Yang Xuan's fox tail. “”

Nong Yingzu nodded, and after listening to the more than 20 rules, Zhou Busu said: "My lord, this, this "Tusi Law" is much stricter than in the past.

For example, the Han Chinese were allowed to trade freely

Han Chinese are allowed to marry freely with other ethnic groups

Han people should be escorted to the government for disposal after committing crimes, and Tusi should not dispose of them privately

When there is a dispute between two toasters, they need to be mediated by the local government, and they are not allowed to fight at will

It is not allowed to impact and disrupt the schools run by the Han people

If there is a change in the toast, you need to check with the central government

Those who inherit the position of Tusi must reach the level of Wenxiu and Wuju.

It is necessary to pay the tax agreed upon by both parties to the local government every year

Obey the requirements of the local government to crusade against disobedience to the Tusi

………

Adult, in addition to the requirements are much stricter, if you violate the "Tusi Law", the light one will be fined silver, and the heavy one will be another adult, or the Tufu and Tuzhizhou titles will be cancelled, and the heaviest ones will directly cancel the Tusi titles. ”

Nong Yingzu smiled and said, "Oh, don't the Han people pay attention to the three fires of new officials? It's just a few fires that this Penghou burned.

Besides, except for allowing the Han people to trade freely, except for allowing them to marry freely, and except for not disposing of the Han people who commit crimes at will, the rest of the past has been enforced. ”

Zhou Busu nodded and said: "Yes, my lord, let's not be this peg that comes out, the peg that comes out is rotten first, this volunteer army is really evil, and it is very powerful to fight."

I've been to see the toast, and it's basically burned down, and the big toast of thousands of people was destroyed in half a day.

There is also Kunming City, the city is so high, I heard that the time for the volunteers to really attack the city is less than a day?

Two days ago, we went to the city wall to see that some places were still full of potholes, and I heard that they were injured by artillery. ”

Nong Yingzu nodded and said, "Yes, although the Ming Dynasty exists in name only, the Han people who have entered Yunnan are more ruthless than the other.

Let's not mention that Mu Tianbo and Grandpa Mu will follow Wu Bikui, follow Shadingzhou's peeling daylily, and behead thousands of people.

It is that since this Penghou entered Yunnan, those who have been slightly disobedient have all destroyed the toast one by one. ”

In the past two months, he has killed 6 toasts and killed tens of thousands of people. I don't learn from Wu Bikui and Sha Dingzhou, what kind of peg should I be?

To the Penghou Mansion, to the governor of the yamen should be given the gift to the gift? At this most critical moment, don't fall short. ”

Zhou Busu shook his head and said: "Hey, this time it is very evil, I sent it a few times, but those people didn't dare to take it."

If you want to give a gift, then paying taxes regularly and on time according to the requirements of the "Tusi Law" is the best gift. ”

Hearing this, Nong Yingzu was even more frightened and came to the political envoy's yamen early the next morning, and saw everyone standing on the outermost side one by one in the corridor, and everyone was quite surprised to see that such a big toast as Nong Yingzu actually came to the governor's yamen.

A toast asked, "Lord Nong, you are one of the three major toasts in our Yun (Nan), how can you be received by the governor?" It stands to reason that it should be received by the Governor. ”

Nong Yingzu wiped the beads of sweat from Kai's face, and smiled embarrassedly: "This, whether it is the governor or the governor, whether it is our lordship, we should be loyal." ”

Speaking of this, Nong Yingzu himself felt quite strange, yes, one of his three major toasts, how could he be received by a small political envoy?

At this time, the roll call officer shouted: "Guangnan Tong Zhinong should be sent by the ancestors to pay a visit."

Nong Yingzu hurriedly tidied up his clothes, bent down and whispered a few words to the roll caller, and then followed a roll call officer to the hall and bowed his head to greet him.

What surprised Nong Yingzu was that the political envoy had a family routine with him, such as what clan he belonged to, when did the ancestor be named Tusi, how large the scope of Tusi was, how many populations there were, how much harvest was there, had he ever studied, and how did he get along with those Tusi around?

In the end, it is whether you have read "Tusi Law", how do you feel, and can you abide by it?

This made Nong Yingzu panic, and replied word by word: "Adult, the little one came and watched it a few times, it was very good, very good, and the small one completely agreed."

Yin Chengju praised two sentences and said: "Oh, Lord Nong, if you don't have any opinions to draw a charge in the front secretariat, declare that you have no opinion on this "Tusi Law". ”

When Nong Yingzu heard this, he seemed quite hesitant and said, "My lord, then, what about Penghou's banquet?" ”

Yin Chengju smiled and said, "Oh, Lord Nong, you see that my temperament has forgotten such a big thing." After signing, the clerk will issue invitations, but they must arrive early and not be late. ”

When Nong Yingzu heard this, he nodded again and again, finished drawing the charge under the guidance of the clerk, and walked out with a smile on his face.

After a few laps around the city, Nong Yingzu felt wrong.

When I saw the Duke of Dian in the past, I had to prepare gifts, and this Yang Xuan was also Penghou, not to mention that the Han people paid special attention to etiquette.

Nong Yingzu gritted his teeth, took out a string of ancestral Buddhist beads, wrapped it, and then came to the Qianguo Mansion early to meet Penghou.
