Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Silver of Atonement

After hearing the news, Wu Xin was relieved, if more than 10,000 mercenaries rushed into Kaifeng City, this matter would definitely shock the entire Henan, and even the imperial court was greatly shaken, and at that time, he would not be able to escape the responsibility.

Although the mercenary peasants retreated, Wu Xin still did not relax his vigilance, the gate of Kaifeng City was still closed, and soldiers began to patrol the streets.

After arresting the people, he struck while the iron was hot, and asked the soldiers to go to the squire's house to ask for food, and he also came up with a clever plan to make a profit, that is, to urge the family members who made trouble to ask for atonement silver, the large family business was 10,000 taels, and the small family business was also required to pay 5,000 taels of silver.

Originally, Wu Xinxin was to cross the Dubu Bridge again, and if he was not careful, he would fall into the abyss, and now the family members who committed the crime urged him to atone for the money, wouldn't he put himself in a more dangerous situation, in fact, Wu Xinxin had no way, he and all the officials, he was thinking about the court's fanfare to buy grain for military supplies, so the court had no money, after buying the grain by himself, the court said, the treasury has no silver, and the first debt is owed, then this hole can be filled in Kaifeng Mansion by itself, Kaifeng Mansion is in the north, not as rich as the Jiangnan Mansion, and the people's wealth is atmospheric, may not care about this silver tael, but for the Kaifeng Mansion can not afford the 30,000 taels of grain purchase, as the prefect of Kaifeng, he has to find a way to raise this silver tael by himself, and the squire gathered to make trouble, which became an excuse for Wu Xinxin.

This kind of thing is suspected of rebellion, and the nature is very bad, the governor of Henan, and the political envoys on the left and right have to hide it, for fear that the court will know, so Wu Xin is not afraid that this matter will make a big trouble, anyway, there are still people above who are under pressure.

The squires who had returned halfway through the way, after receiving the soldier's notice, relented and were willing to hand over the grain.

In this way, the Kaifeng Mansion recorded a full eighteen thousand stone of grain in the account book, Wu Xinxin was very happy when he learned the news, but the family members of the squires who were asked for atonement money by the soldiers did not think so, on the contrary, they were even more angry, some wrote letters to officials known in the court, some wrote to the governor, and some deliberately intercepted the imperial history to make Wu Xinxin's crimes public, but they were all destined to be unsatisfactory.

The officials in the court were unwilling to dislike the emperor for a small squire of Kaifeng Mansion, and wrote to the governor, which was even more ridiculous, this is not to let him expose his own shortcomings, and intercept the imperial history, it is even more impossible, because when the governor of Henan learned the news of the trouble in Kaifeng Mansion, he immediately sent someone to stop the footsteps of the imperial history on the way to Kaifeng, and invited the imperial history from Beijing back to Luoyang.

Zhu Youzhen in the Beijing Division summoned Sun Chuanting, who was clothed, in the Yangxin Palace, and talked with people for two hours, asking him about the strategy of Liaodong to resist the enemy, and the strategy of strengthening the army in the Guannei, Sun Chuanting did not disappoint Zhu Youzhen, although he didn't say much, but he hit the nail on the head, Zhu Youzhen knew that the essential difference between Sun Chuanting and Yang Sichang was that Yang Sichang was too idealistic, and he would always be preconceived in doing things, Yang Sichang was a capable minister in the peaceful and prosperous times, but in troubled times, he could only be a minister who misled the country, and Sun Chuanting was a doer, he didn't mention any slogans, Do it step by step, in the troubled times, it is destined to make a difference, in the original history, Yang Sichang and Sun Chuanting looked at each other unpleasantly, and they became reasonable.

After Zhu Youzhen talked with Sun Chuanting, Zhu Youzhen was overjoyed and immediately asked Wang Chengenzi to draw up a decree in the Palace of Nourishing the Heart, and enshrined Sun Chuanting as the governor of Sichuan, and concurrently served as the squire of the military department, and the governor of Sichuan.

When Sun Chuanting heard Zhu Youzhen's appointment to him, he was shocked and hurriedly resigned, but Zhu Youzhen smiled and insisted on doing it, Sun Chuanting couldn't, he could only receive the order, and the prepared holy decree was submitted to the cabinet.

As soon as this decree came out, it shocked the entire court, and another person jumped a few levels and was promoted to become a feudal official, and the imperial history attached to Liu Quan did not say anything cool, and the imperial historians close to the Donglin Party played one after another.

Someone said: "Li Shuo has done nothing, as the governor of Shaanxi, it is not in line with the law, and at this time, he is promoting Sun Chuanting, I am afraid that it will make hundreds of officials criticize, and I hope that the emperor can take back his fate." ”

There is a humanitarian: "Sun Tradition has no merit for the society, and he can't take on this great responsibility." ”

However, Zhu Youzhen didn't even look at the hundreds of chapters, all of them were left in the middle and not sent, and the imperial historians looked at the emperor without squeaking, and at night, they visited Huang Liji's home, wanting Huang Liji to speak and stop the emperor's rashness.

Huang Liji met with the visiting imperial historian, and after listening to the imperial history's words, he always ended with a sentence: "The emperor is wise and wise, and has the wisdom to know people, you can rest assured that this Sun Chuanting has the ability to serve as the governor of Sichuan." After that, they will send them off.

It is true that the first assistant of the cabinet is to contain the existence of imperial power, but at the beginning of Zhu Youzhen's ascension to the throne, he set Cui Chengxiu's plot against the case, purged the three major battalions, and the birth of the golden dragon rumored by the people, Zhu Youzhen's power is like the sky, Huang Liji can't shake Zhu Youzhen's decision-making at all, and he doesn't want to wade into this muddy water.

In the middle of the night, the Yangxin Hall was brightly lit, and Zhu Youzhen was watching Li Shuo's recital, which said that he was ready to collect the grain and silver obtained by the rich man from the encroachment of the military land for many years, and asked Zhu Youzhen to set up the Military Land Encroachment Investigation Division, and recommended Cao Dezhang as the person in charge of the Military Land Encroachment Investigation Division.

After Zhu Youzhen finished reading Li Shuo's recital, he took a deep breath, stood up and walked back and forth in the hall, although he explained to him like this when Li Shuo was leaving, but he went to Shaanxi for less than half a month, so he was so anxious, in a trance, Zhu Youzhen felt that Li Shuo wanted to prove his ability too much, which would only be a bad thing, and he didn't want to agree, but he thought that he was not Li Shuo, he thought it was too early, so did Li Shuo feel that it was the right time?

Zhu Youzhen, who has always been decisive, couldn't make up his mind this time, so he asked Wang Chengen, who served in the Yangxin Palace: "Wang Chengen, Li Shuo's excerpt, wants to set up a military land encroachment investigation department, and urge the rich man to ask for the proceeds of the military land, do you say I am allowed or not?" ”

Wang Chengen thought for a while and said: "Governor Li is a talented ruler and has a reason for setting up the Military Quartermaster Encroachment Investigation Division, and the emperor is wise and wise, and he must have a conclusion in his heart." ”

After Wang Chengen became the boss of the ceremonial eunuch, he didn't treat Zhu Youzhen like before, he knew everything about Zhu Youzhen, he knew Zhu Youzhen's temper, if he thought about it in the future, there were many major national events that were decided under his influence, and he would definitely regard himself as the second Wei Zhongxian, and he would not like himself in his heart, at that time, he didn't care how many years you served him, it was destined not to end well, so now Wang Chengen has left a line in everything he does and speaks.

Zhu Youzhen glanced at Wang Chengen, then turned his head and said softly: "I let Li Shuo become the governor of Shaanxi, I want to reuse him, if I hinder him everywhere, wouldn't it be against my original intention." ”

Zhu Youzhen has made up his mind and decided to agree to Li Shuo's recital, Li Shuo's first recital is to train the new army, Zhu Youzhen added a northwest battalion, Li Shuo said that he would set up a military field invasion investigation department, Zhu Youzhen also agreed, such a favor will make Li Shuo's power in the court grow rapidly, the emperor is so favored, he will definitely be able to enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister in the future, of course, there are also disadvantages, that is, the officials of the Donglin Party, Qichu and Zhejiang Party dislike Li Shuo even more, and even collude to deal with Li Shuo, who has been carefully cultivated by Zhu Youzhen.

However, the confrontation in the court will come sooner or later, and it is impossible to hide, rehabilitate Zhang Juzheng, and the officials and gentry will pay taxes as one, which is destined to set off a major political change during the Chongzhen years.

I hope you will support a lot, recommend a lot, two more tomorrow, one will be updated at nine o'clock in the future, one will be updated at eleven o'clock, stabilize this rhythm, but Xiaofeng still hopes that book friends will recommend votes to go, your support is the driving force for Xiaofeng to meditate,
