Section 271 Justice is at ease in the hearts of the people

The third volume sailed in the Ming Dynasty

Today's Texas Mansion is obviously a big shot. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

On the street, dozens of soldiers in armor shouted and flocked to each other, and pedestrians fled far away.

There were three healthy horses in the middle of the soldiers, and all eyes were on them.

Along the road are teahouses, restaurants, brothels, large and small windows are opened, all to see this group of rampaging people, most of the people sitting in the building are businessmen, or vassal and elegant followers.

The Texas Mansion is not a border gate, and although there are soldiers patrolling on weekdays, it is rare to see such a swagger through the market.

Literati and officials have always been low-key, and they don't ride horses, but mostly take donkey carts and sedan chairs.

On both sides of the street, there is a lot of discussion.

"Who's that right away?

How can it be so flamboyant and domineering, with dozens of soldiers opening the way before and after? ”

On the teahouse next to it, a young Confucian opened his mouth and asked his companions left and right.

"I don't know the one-eyed general in front, and the one in the back left is the garrison of the Texas Mansion."

This person has obviously seen Dong Changqing.

"No wonder, relying on picking up some credit on the occasion of Jiannu Koubian, he acted so arrogantly, when did it take the turn of my Ming Dynasty to be so arrogant?

The corpses of the princes in the Texas Mansion were vegetarian, and none of them dared to complain to the official family about this person's behavior? ”

The young Confucian student's face was full of anger, in this era, the literati were supreme, and the martial artists were always inferior. Young people are somewhat cynical, and they are not used to this kind of behavior.

"Hey...... I don't know what the famous brother knows. It turned out that Governor Ni went out with a bigger pomp than this. ”

Wait for the spring entrance examination, so that if the famous brother is a middle jinshi and first, it will not be too late to see the Son of Heaven again. ”

Speaking of which, the tone is sarcastic.

"Brother Song Xian, what are these words, my generation of students, how can you sit idly by and ignore the uneven road?

Look at these soldiers, holding swords and guns to drive away the people of the Ming Dynasty, there is a kind of ability to fight with the enemy, and show off their might in front of their own people? ”

"Brother Ling has lived in Jiangnan for a long time, I don't know how cruel Jiannu is? If you can also defeat Jiannu and protect the people of the Ming Dynasty, it doesn't hurt if the younger brother kneels down? ”

The scholar surnamed Song sneered and said, but there was some insight between his words.

"Virtuous brother, how does the way of the sages teach the world?

Fighting horses on the street, with dozens of soldiers shouting left and right, the people all over the street want to give way to it, how can there be such a reason in the world?

How dare a martial artist be proud of his achievements? ”

The more he talked, the angrier he became.

"If the Tao is different, don't conspire with each other, so don't pass by." Huo Ran, a scholar surnamed Song, stood up, stared at the madness in front of him and continued:

"Justice is at ease in people's hearts!

If there were no warriors to expel Jiannu and fight bloodily, Gyeonggi Shandong and other places would be miserable, and how could they allow the famous brother to make a big deal of nonsense here?

The younger brother wanted to know, if he faced Jiannu's sharp butcher's knife, would Brother Ling Ming lower his noble head? ”

He spoke very loudly because of his anger. Many people in the restaurant savored it and thought about it.

"Well, this gentleman said it well!"

Lu Xiangsheng slapped the table and laughed, most of the Ming literati like empty talk, and their contempt for martial artists has long been integrated into their bone marrow.

However, it must be noted that there are many people of insight who understand the shortcomings of this.

Lu Xiangsheng himself is a general who leads the troops, so he naturally understands the truth.

Especially after being influenced by Qin Haoming, the policy of advocating literature and suppressing military force in the Ming Dynasty was shaken. During this worry, I also seriously thought about this matter.

Jiannu has risen to become one of the forces capable of subverting the Ming Dynasty.

At this time, it was the time when the warriors needed to fight bloodily, but the Ming Dynasty still stuck to the rules and continued to use the set of rules to prevent the generals from making chaos during the Taiping period.

Don't you hear that the king treats me as a countryman, and I should repay him as a countryman! You treat me as a passerby, and I repay you as a passerby! If you treat me with mustard, I should repay him with revenge!

Now this kind of practice, how can the warriors be disregarded for their lives in order to repay the Ming Dynasty?

"It's Ruer and other businesses, have you ever thought about it seriously? Today, for his own selfishness, ignoring Daming, he built slaves to go south every day, how to solve the soldiers' food and salary?

Don't you hear that there are all the eggs under the nest?

Do you have to wait until Jiannu's butcher's knife is cut on your head before you understand? Or is it that like the Jin merchants, you also colluded with the construction of slaves in private? ”

Dong Changqing and Zhang Songrong came to pick him up, and Lu Xiangsheng understood that this private interview with Weifu could not continue, so he simply pointed at the businessman who was talking about it at first and shouted.

The merchant is greedy and profitable, and he is not ignorant. It's just that it wasn't so specific in the past, but now it's really unbearable to hear it with my own ears.

The businessmen in the restaurant looked at Lu Xiangsheng who was not angry and arrogant, although he didn't know his identity, but they were all people who traveled from south to north, why didn't they have some eyesight?

With Lu Xiangsheng dressed as a scholar, they didn't dare to say more.

Looking at Lu Xiangsheng and Yang Lukai, who were leaving by themselves, everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Suddenly, the voice of the last general Lu Du came from the restaurant, and several merchants turned pale and their legs were weak with fright, understanding that the scribe was the famous Xuanda Governor Lu Xiangsheng.

The streets of Dezhou City were spacious, and the crowd slowly crossed the main street on horseback, turning to the slightly desolate southeast garrison yamen.

Suddenly, there was an argument outside a small manor, and there were many villagers nearby.

Lu Xiangsheng also looked over there, and the mount under him unconsciously slowly approached.

I saw a few officials surrounding a person and scolding, and the person who was scolded was not badly dressed, but he kept giving his hands to his promises, and the scolding of these officials became louder and louder.

"Huang Jiachang, if you still don't pay the three salaries this month, the government will blame you, but you can't complain about the brothers."

A leader pointed at the man in front of him and scolded.

"Chen Shuban, it's not that we don't pay, it's that there is no way!

This thief, God, when the crops needed water the most, did not have a drop of rain for two months, and the seedlings in the fields were about to be harvested, but they were full of shriveled ears.

A handful of hands was full of chaff, and there was not a grain of wheat. ”

Huang Jia patted his thigh, squatted on the ground, and said with his head in pain.

Shandong has been war-torn for a long time, and the foundation of the peasant households is weak, and every household has no grain stock. was already in a state of flux, but encountered this fatal disaster.

Now the government not only does not provide disaster relief and tax reduction, but also makes some kind of training and salary, and does not let people live!

"The imperial court's increase in income and training is also for everyone's net worth.

Traitors arose in the northwest, and Yang Benbing wanted to train elite soldiers and exterminate them. What's more, the training salary is only levied for one year, and it will pass. ”

Chen Shuban took care of the practical difficulties of the people, said meaningless words in his mouth, turned around and said to the crowd again:

"Everyone can't be in arrears, otherwise the government will inevitably punish them heavily, and then there will be trouble, and everyone's face will be unsightly."
