Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Number of Rites, the Law of the King (I)

After listening to Li Shuo's words, the two brocade guards dragged the squire lying on the ground and left, many squires were already frightened when they saw Li Shuo treat this person like this, but there were also many people who saw through Li Shuo's tricks and disdained them in their hearts, but they didn't speak, and they were the first birds.

At this time, Cao Dezhang, who had been sitting upright, stood up, walked to Li Shuo's side, and said loudly: "Lord Futai was instructed by the emperor to travel thousands of miles from Beijing to Shaanxi, just to govern Shaanxi well, and if you refuse to obey the order at this time, it is no wonder that we are ruthless." Cao Dezhang's face was very embarrassed, and he was also a little angry, just because Cao Dezhang was a peripheral member of the eunuch party, and he didn't have a good relationship with these squires and rich families on weekdays, and he didn't have any dealings.

The squire had no one to speak.

Li Shuo then spoke: "If you have not violated the royal law, this official will never send troops to arrest you into Chang'an Mansion, at this time you have two choices, the first is to stand up at this time, say that you are willing to abide by the punishment system formulated by the Investigation Department of Military Land Illegal Occupation, and within ten days, hand over the fine silver and grain, then the official can send someone to send you back to the house, and the second option is to be stubborn and refuse to accept the crime, then the official can only put you in the government prison, force your family, let them pay the fine silver and food, the official knows, All your hopes are pinned on Song Mingyi, it's not a secret, Song Mingyi has indeed impeached the official, and the concert has arrived in Beijing, but you don't have to rejoice, even if the court and the emperor think that the official is acting recklessly, and he wants to dismiss the official's position and cure the official's crimes, but before that, the official will definitely be able to make you succumb, you have been clothed and fed, presumably, you can't get used to eating in prison, but don't worry, just get used to it, the official has time to accompany you. ”

After Li Shuo finished speaking, he waited for the squire's reply.

In fact, these squires are divided into two extremes, the first party is to encroach on too many acres of military land, and face great compensation, although they have money and food, but they do not want to hemorrhage to pay compensation to the court and the government, of course, these people run Song Mingyi's mansion is also very diligent, and there is a category of people, who are less guilty of encroaching on military land and less compensation, but the government arrests all the squires who are very influential in the local area, and arrest this kind of people because they have a huge business in their families, and refuse to deliver grain and silver, but they have speculative ideas in their hearts, and they consciously involve a wide range. The government has no way to urge it, but now that the person has been caught in Chang'an Mansion, the crime is small, and if there is some loss in business, it will be very bad, so after Li Shuo said these words, these people had different thoughts in their hearts, and after waiting for a while, one of them stood up and said softly: "Lord Futai, I am willing to abide by the punishment system and pay the fine." ”

The first person spoke, and then dozens of squires expressed their willingness to pay compensation in public.

The performance of these people made Li Shuo's heart very satisfied, he glanced at Cao Dezhang and said: "Since you are willing, this official will also keep his promise and send you home, Lord Cao, and this matter will be handed over to you." ”

Cao Dezhang nodded, and the two waited for a while, and no one spoke again.

Li Shuo didn't want to wait any longer, waved his hand and said, "Suppress them and put them in prison." ”

"Yes." After receiving the order, the soldiers detained these squires out of the governor's yamen and rushed to the governor's prison.

Li Shuo did not break his promise, and the squires who agreed to pay the grain and silver were sent home, while those who did not refuse to pay the grain and silver were all imprisoned in the governor's prison.

More than 6,000 people from the Shaanxi Guard Station were stationed in Sanfu, and Dai Shihui personally dispatched them, although Lu Xiangsheng did not come forward, he was also concerned about this matter, and he didn't want to make any civil revolt at the critical juncture of cutting military households.

The squires in the Sanfu city are forbidden to go out of the city, and there are soldiers guarding the door, and there are soldiers patrolling the city, and the people in the Sanfu are a little panicked, of course, there are also people who are happy, looking at those squires who are rich and unkind, and they have a bad breath in their hearts.

Generally speaking, under the high-control policy of the governor's yamen, the situation in Shaanxi has not deteriorated.

And after Zhu Youzhen spent a sleepless night, the pilgrimage meeting began.

On this day, Zhu Youzhen got up early in the morning, freshened up and dressed up, and entered the Taihe Hall accompanied by dozens of eunuchs.

After Zhu Youzhen sat on the dragon seat, all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty knelt down and shouted long live.

Zhu Youzhen said softly.

Baiguan stood up.

Zhu Youzhen said softly: "Everyone Aiqing, there is something important to do. ”

As soon as Zhu Youzhen said this, most of the civil and military people in the Manchu Dynasty felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts, and this Shaanxi incident was boiling in Beijing, don't you know? Or maybe it's a prelude to shielding Li Shuo.

Zhu Youzhen's words were backward, and Guo Yunhou, the secretary of the household department, came out first: "Weichen has something to play." ”

Seeing that it was Guo Yunhou who was listed, Zhu Youzhen's face was a little bad, of course he thought that Guo Yunhou was going to impeach Li Shuo.

Zhu Youzhen said lightly: "Say it." ”

"Your Majesty, our Quartermaster Department has drawn up guidelines for purchasing grain, and most of them have complied with the purchase of grain, but as soon as the matter of Luoyang Mansion came out, Weichen thought that there were many people who violated the guidelines, so he asked the emperor to send the imperial history again to inspect various places, and the people must not be wronged. Officials at all levels in Luoyang should be severely punished and disciplined in order to enforce the law. Guo Yunhou said loudly, never mentioning the matter of Shaanxi, in fact, Zhu Youzhen is still a little wrong Guo Yunhou, although he is a little pedantic, but he is not the kind of person who does not know things, he is in front of the home of the Ming Dynasty, of course, he knows what an embarrassing situation the current Ming Dynasty is facing, to put it bluntly, there is no money and no food, otherwise when the northwest camp is added, Guo Yunhou will not be so contradictory to Zhu Youzhen, now the matter of Shaanxi, although Li Shuo is a little reckless, but if it succeeds, he will be able to recover millions of acres of fertile land and grain for the imperial court, silver is countless, Shaanxi will never dare to eat alone, and will definitely give the treasury some, at that time, the treasury will be full, and doing some things will not seem so constrained.

Zhu Youzhen said with a smile: "What Aiqing said is reasonable, I have given an order to Luo Yang in Luoyang, let him close the case as soon as possible, treat officials at all levels in Luoyang, and never show mercy to his subordinates." As for what Aiqing just said, I sent imperial history inspections to various places where the grain was purchased, and I was right. Liu Quan, this matter will be handed over to you to do, remember, you must do the inspection, not perfunctory. ”

Liu Quan said: "Obey." ”

And after Guo Yun said Shengming, he retreated.

There was a rare silence in the Taihe Palace, an eerie quiet.

That's because Zhu Youzhen was waiting for the minister to speak, and the minister was waiting for Huang Liji, the first assistant of the cabinet, to speak, but Huang Liji didn't speak for a long time, which caused this rare quiet.

Zhu Youzhen opened his mouth to break the calm: "Everyone Aiqing, if there is nothing to do, you will retreat first." ”

As soon as the emperor said this, the ministers couldn't be quiet anymore, what is going on, Song Mingyi's performance was suppressed, and the impeachment of officials at all levels was also left in the Heart Cultivation Palace, isn't this a clear attempt to cover up Li Shuo's matter?

Sure enough, after Zhu Youzhen said this, a Wenchen came out and said: "Weichen has something to do." ”

Zhu Youzhen glanced at this Wenchen and knew that this was a famous imperial history, and Zhu Youzhen couldn't shout the name.

Zhu Youzhen knew that this imperial historian must talk about Shaanxi, but his face did not change at all, in fact, sometimes Zhu Youzhen was very confused, he wanted to dictate the dynasty and depose the special status of the speaker, but sometimes he thought that he could not only look at the present, but also focus on the future.

"I don't know what Aiqing has to play?"

"Your Majesty, this Beijing division is boiling all over the world, and officials at all levels know about it, is it possible that the emperor really doesn't know?" The imperial historian spoke to Zhu Youzhen in a questioning tone.

Zhu Youzhen's face was slightly angry.

Liu Quan also came out and said: "Bold, you dare to speak to the emperor in such a tone, it is rude." ”

Liu Quan is the imperial envoy of the capital, and this imperial historian is his subordinate, but the imperial history is different from other yamen, you are all at fault, and I can also impeach you, so this imperial historian is not afraid of Liu Quan at all, but instead retorted: "Hmph, Lord Liu, you are the imperial envoy, don't you have anything to say at this great court meeting?" You say that I have no courtesy, but Li Shuo in Shaanxi has no courtesy, he did not report to the court, privately made a claim, mobilized the guards and horses, the northwest battalion, and arrested the squire, this and that, which are capital crimes, Weichen played, that is, the emperor should be invited by the Shaanxi political envoy Song Daren, immediately issued an order, Li Shuo was dismissed from his post and investigated, and sent to Beijing for conviction. ”
