In the early morning of the next day, Fang Yuan was still asleep when he was dragged off the bed by Qin Zhan.

Qin Zhan put lunch on the table, and told him with a solemn expression that more than forty scholars had gathered outside the peach garden, shouting to Qian Longti and asking Jinyiwei to release him immediately.

"Hey, it's quite efficient, and it doesn't let people sleep well."

Fang Yuan muttered, and then explained to Qin Zhan, "There are too few people, wait until four hundred people are gathered to report." ”

Qin Zhan sat on the edge of his bed and didn't let Fang Yuan continue to sleep, "Boss, there are only thirty of our Jinyi guards, and it's hard to deal with the overwhelming number of people on the other side!" ”

Fang Yuan was tossed by him like this, so he could only reluctantly get up and start dressing, "Fourth, let you practice martial arts diligently on weekdays, and now even a few helpless scholars are scared to death." ”

Qin Zhan smiled and said, "I'll be afraid of those nerds?!" I can fight ten of them at a time, I'm worried that the matter will be big, how can I explain to the Jinyi Guard and His Majesty when I go back to the capital? ”

Fang Yuan just wanted to make a big deal out of it, how could he become famous if he didn't make a big fuss? He slowly sorted out the tiger striped cotton armor of the brocade guard in front of the bronze mirror, "When the sky falls, I will carry it, and you can do your part." ”

He tidied up the tiger-striped cotton armor, put on the embroidered spring knife, looked sideways at Qin Zhan and said, "Fourth! Forty people are really too few, if the fold is handed to His Majesty's dragon case, it is estimated that His Majesty will not look at it squarely, so wait! ”

Qin Zhan looked at Fang Yuan in surprise, he not only insisted on annihilating the Houjin Tartars, but also went to provoke the Donglin Party members who were dead but not stiff, this was the wrong medicine?

Seeing that Fang Yuan was just wearing the clothes of Jinyiwei and preparing to go out, he didn't hide it a little, and asked in amazement, "Boss, aren't we low-key?" ”

Fang Yuan turned around and walked in front of him, straightening out the covered cyan robe for him, "You go and order all the brothers of the Jinyi Guard to restore the Jinyi Guard's attire from today onwards, and there is no need to keep a low profile anymore, so that those people can take a look......"

He stared at Qin Zhan's eyes and said word by word, "True-positive-brocade-clothes-guard!" ”

Qin Zhan was inspired by him, and he was also heroic all his life, so he tore off his robe, revealing a cotton armor embroidered with biao patterns, and shouted loudly, "Good!" ”

Fang Yuan sat at the table, picked up an unknown Jiangnan pastry and stuffed it into his mouth, and explained to Qin Zhan, "Fourth, you go to the guard house of Suzhou Jinyiwei to check the details of Qian Qianyi's family property, as well as the tax records. ”

Qin Zhan took the order, Fang Yuan stuffed a large plate of Suzhou soft cakes into his stomach, and drank two bowls of fresh plum soup to relieve his hunger a little, and then lay on the bed and closed his eyes to recuperate, waiting for the items purchased by the Taobao system to arrive.

At 3:05 pm, Qin Zhan, who went to Suzhou Mansion to do business, was quite efficient, and in less than three hours, he sent Suzhou Jinyi Health Office to investigate Qian Qianyi's family property information, as well as the government's tax records.

Qin Zhan reported, "Qian Qianyi has at least 30,000 acres of fertile land in Nanjing and Suzhou, as well as more than 200 shops in the city. ”

Fang Yuan calculated an account in his heart, the average tax per mu of land during the Ming Dynasty was about 10 catties of grain, and Qian Qianyi's 30,000 mu of fertile land should be given 300,000 catties of grain, and today's rice price is about 1 tael of silver to buy 2 stone of rice, and one stone in the Ming Dynasty is about 150 catties, which is equivalent to about 1,000 taels of silver that should be paid, and Qian Qianyi only paid less than one-tenth of the field endowment.

As for the commercial tax of the 200 shops, it is even more insignificant.

"It's really the Donglin Party, which is as clean as water, and it's more ruthless than the eunuch party!"

Fang Yuan secretly scolded, and then asked, "Fourth, since these Jinyi guards have already investigated the information, why haven't they reported it to the capital?" ”

Qin Zhan smiled bitterly and said, "Lin Tou, these days are on an errand, that is the day of gangsters, more things are better than less." Your Majesty, since he suppressed the eunuchs and Jinyiwei, why should he be the first bird in everything? ”

Qin Zhan's words are in one sentence, whether it is the Donglin Party, or the Eunuch Party, Jinyiwei, the vast majority of officials in the Ming Dynasty have long been in a state of 'mixing', when they are an official for a day, they can mix for a day, be greedy for a day, and when they can't get mixed up, they will take the money from corruption, pat their butts and resign and leave, learn from Qian Qianyi, set up a certain poetry school, and send their love to the landscape.

The bureaucratic system of the Ming Dynasty was under the control of this group of faint officials and mixed officials, and it was rotten and gloomy early, and the administrative efficiency was extremely low.

Fang Yuan took the information collected by the Jinyi Guards of Suzhou Mansion into his arms, and waited back to the capital, which was also a reason to teach Qian Qianyi a lesson.

At 5:30 p.m., he didn't wait for the delivery of the Taobao system, but waited for Liu Ru, who had a one-sided relationship, to come to visit.

Fang Yuan muttered to himself, what is the purpose of this Mrs. Qian who came to visit her regardless of the precautions of men and women, could it be that Qian Qianyi confessed it, it would be too boring.

He saw Liu Ruyi, who was still dressed in Confucian clothes, in the private room of the peach garden, because there were scholars outside the peach garden to make trouble, today's peach garden is extremely deserted, and there are only a few scattered tables of brocade guards in the lobby who are drinking and boxing.

This is the second time Fang Yuan has met Liu Ru, he has to admit that Liu Ru is worthy of being one of the beauties of Qin Huai Bayan, although she is married to a wife and wears Confucian clothes, it is still difficult to hide her bright and moving, natural beauty, and she is indeed a beautiful woman who makes men fall in love at first sight.

But Fang Yuan's heart was worried about the future, and he had no intention of appreciating the beauty in front of him, so he smiled at her, "Mrs. Qian, we met again, my husband and I are already on the same page, Madame is afraid that it will be criticized for coming so grandly!" ”

Liu Ru sat down across from him generously, and replied to him with a light smile, "I'm here to ask Commander Fang, why are the two sides not in the same situation, and everyone is not harmonious?" Be a man and leave a line, and see each other in the future! ”

As soon as Fang Yuan heard this, he knew that Qian Qianyi's old traitor was still cowardly, and sent the only lady who could talk to him, Liu Ru, to come forward to make peace, Fang Yuan sneered and said, "Mrs. Qian, the Donglin Party is a group of people who have brought disaster to the country and the people, causing chaos in the world, and this matter cannot be reconciled." ”

Liu Ru heard that he charged the Donglin Party with such a big crime as 'bringing disaster to the country and the people', and retorted seriously, "My husband and they are just traveling in the mountains and rivers and sending love poems and books, why did they bring disaster to the country and the people?" Isn't it the current emperor who sits on the Jinluan Palace, arbitrarily apportions Liaoyu, and provokes the people in the world to cause chaos in the world? ”

Fang Yuan didn't seem to be faking when he saw her, thinking that he was brainwashed by staying with those Donglin Party members, and he was idle anyway, so he would give her a lesson, "My Ming Dynasty's legal field endowment is about 10 catties per mu, and now the additional salary is only 6 catties per mu, a total of about 15 or 16 catties of Tianfu, how can it cause chaos in the world?" ”

Liu Ru didn't know about these things, and she couldn't refute them, and she groaned and said, "What does that have to do with my husband and the Donglin Party?" ”

Fang Yuan took out the information from Qin Zhan's reconnaissance and threw it in front of Liu Rusi, "Mrs. Qian, take a closer look!" The land endowment of the Zunfu Shiner is less than one-tenth of the due! ”

He investigated Qian Qianyi's details clearly, it can be seen that he came prepared, Liu Ru is face changed slightly, picked up the rice paper that Fang Yuan threw on the table, and began to review them one by one.

Fang Yuan said sharply, "The honorable husband did not pay enough land endowment, but the imperial court finally collected enough field endowment, who paid the deficit field endowment?" Ordinary people, of course! It is that tens of thousands of people like Zunfu have apportioned dozens of times, hundreds, or even hundreds of times the amount of land to the heads of the people, so the officials will force the people to rebel, and the world will be in chaos. Sucking the blood of the people, eating the fat of the people, sending love poems and books, and playing in the mountains and rivers, you say, is this a disaster for the country and the people? ! ”

Liu Ru lowered his eyes and looked at the rice paper full of Qian Qianyi's crimes, and his slender hand trembled slightly, "The Donglin Party has at least fought for the country, investigated the three major cases, and brought down Wei Biao, who is in turmoil in the world, and it will not be useless as you said." ”

Fang Yuan sneered and said, "As a member of the imperial court, I hold the important weapon of the country, and I don't care about bureaucrats at all levels, whether the heavy taxes imposed by the gentry to the people will force the people to rebel, how to make the Ming soldiers strong and strong to pacify Liaodong, and how to make the rich merchants and gentry in Jiangnan honestly pay taxes and fill the treasury." Instead, he spent all his energy on researching which son the emperor liked, who wanted to knock the emperor's son with a stick, whether the emperor had taken aphrodisiacs or poison before he died, whether the emperor's mother should move, and which eunuch the emperor had a good relationship with. What I want to say is that these are the emperor's private affairs, the affairs of the Kwantung Lin Party, these people are just dereliction of duty, gossip, and nonsense! ”

The more he spoke, the more angry he became, Liu Ru was silent, speechless, what Fang Yuan said was completely different from what she usually heard, which could be said to open up another perspective to look at the current chaos.

Fang Yuan sighed deeply and calmed down his sarcastic mood a little, "Mrs. Qian, it's me who has no words, we don't conspire with each other, let's stop here!" ”

Liu Ru put down the rice paper in his hand, and sighed, "I came here for my husband this time, and I want to set up a table of wine banquet and offer another thousand taels of silver. ”

Qian Qianyi believed that Fang Yuan was taking the opportunity to blackmail money, and was even more shocked by the reputation of the Golden Tartar after Fang Yuan's annihilation, so he simply spent a thousand taels of silver to send Fang Yuan, the plague god.

Fang Yuan laughed noncommittally and said, "I'm afraid it's not enough to set up a banquet!" At least half of the family's property must be handed over before this matter can be reconciled, haha! ”

Liu Ru looked at Fang Yuan quietly, as if he was trying to figure out his thoughts, "It turns out that Commander Fang has no sincerity to negotiate peace at all. ”

Fang Yuan was seen through the small abacus by her, and smiled calmly, "Mrs. Qian is worthy of being a talented woman in Jiangnan, with a quick mind, she can see through my mind at once, my father-in-law is the master of ceremonies Fang Zhenghua, I am the so-called eunuch party, Zunfu is the leader of the Donglin Party, but he made peace with a eunuch party, and he laughed out loud when he said it." ”

Liu Ru was face was frosty, and said lightly, "Commander Fang doesn't talk about peace, and he doesn't greed for money, he is greedy for fame?!" Commander Fang wants to establish his authority, and wants to take the position by attacking the Donglin party? ! ”

She pointed out Fang Yuan's true purpose with a word, his thoughts didn't even know his confidant Qin Zhan, but he was seen through by the woman in front of him at a glance, and it was not until this moment that Fang Yuan finally looked at this talented woman in Jiangnan who went down in history, staring at the peach blossom river outside the wooden window, "Mrs. Qian really impresses me!" If you know my thoughts, you know that it will be in vain to persuade me to continue. ”

He has repeatedly resolutely refused to reconcile, and Liu Ru stared at him directly, "Okay, I have done my husband's explanation, and the rest of the matter is not for me to ask about alone." At this moment, I advise the commander of the party on my own behalf, even if you want to establish authority, you should do less killing, otherwise the reputation of the other party's commander will be greatly damaged. ”

Seeing that a fire on both sides was inevitable, she could only retreat to the next best thing, trying to minimize the casualties this time.

"What a wise and benevolent woman! Unfortunately, a flower was stuck in cow dung. ”

There was no need for Liu Ru to specifically remind Fang Yuan that Fang Yuan would not kill this time, but he couldn't help but secretly praise Liu Ru and said, "What Mrs. Qian said, I keep it in mind." ”

Liu Ru said all the things that should be said on this trip, Yingying got up and said goodbye to Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan stared at her back, and suddenly asked, "Mrs. Qian, can I ask you on my behalf." ”

Liu Ru didn't look back, and said lightly, "Commander Fang said yes, I listened to it." ”

Fang Yuan thought for a moment and asked, "Zunfu Ling, a weak female streamer, came to negotiate with the wolf-like Jinyi Guard, really not worried about Madame's safety?" ”

Liu Ru was slightly stunned, turned around and smiled lightly, "Commander Fang, this is the Qian family's family matter, why are you gossiping?" ”

She had only heard it once, and then she knew the meaning and usage of the modern word gossip, and she returned Fang Yuan with a tooth for a tooth, and then went without looking back.

Fang Yuan saw her Ying Ying and smiled, and was slightly stunned, only then did he realize what it means to look back and smile at Bai Meisheng, and the six palaces have no color.

When Liu Ruyi's figure disappeared without a trace, Fang Yuan returned to the room, but saw that the corner of the room was already full of goods purchased online, and said to himself happily, "It's finally arrived, Donglin Party, you can wash your neck and wait for me!" ”
