Chapter Seventy-Two: The Fate of the Three Bastards [Ask for Collection]
ps: the third update. Ask for collection, ask for collection.
In the cold winter season, on a snowy day, in the Xiaohua Hall of the Daotai Yamen of Shaanxi Rudao Road, Shaanzhou River, Wang Jun, the prefect of Ruzhou, faced Ouyang Yongqiu, a Taoist who was famous for his gentleness and elegance in the entire Henan officialdom, and beads of sweat on his forehead were drawn from his cheeks one after another.
Ouyang Yongpei, a native of Maping County, Liuzhou, Guangxi, was lonely early, worked hard to learn, and made up for his life at the age of 18. Yongzheng thirteen years of tribute. Qianlong did not enter the officialdom in the first year, and benefited one party for the first term of office, and the official reputation has spread to Gansu to this day. He was just a small Zhizhou [Gansu Minzhou Zhizhou] back then, but his reputation went straight to Qianlong's ears. It can be said that if it weren't for his poor health, he would have been a feudal official.
Ouyang Yongqi has received an order from the Ministry of Officials to serve as the new political envoy of Guangdong, and when he invited Wang Jun to come to Shaanzhou, the Daotai Yamen was already sealed, and the newly appointed Daotai was handing over government affairs with him. But it was at this time that the governor's yamen sent a letter from the governor of Henan, Asiha. Ouyang Yongqi didn't want to do more, he saw that the person who was about to leave, why bother to make trouble in Henan again, but Asiha pressed the matter into his hands, Ouyang Yongqi couldn't think of it.
Don't think that this lord's official reputation is good, and he has indeed done a lot of benefits for the people - when the official Henan Yanyi Road, Ouyang Yongqi was in office at the time of the Yellow River breaking, flooding more than 40 prefectures and counties, with Zhuxian Town being the most seriously affected. Ouyang Yongqi ordered to set up a hut on a high place, resettle the victims, and buy rice in time, relieving tens of thousands of victims. I thought that this master was a Qingtian lord who couldn't tolerate sand in his eyes, but Ouyang Yongqi and Qingtian were really not compatible. Otherwise, the Henan officialdom would not say that he 'treats people and things, never speaks harshly, builds academies wherever he goes, and takes educating scholars as his top priority'. Look at this comment, does this look like an iron-faced and selfless person? He's just a capable officer! He is very good at handling government affairs, but some of the rules that should be observed, Ouyang Yongbi abides by more rules than anyone else.
Wang Jun's handling of the Chen family's affairs, Ouyang Yongqi can understand. But the problem is that the governor does not want to be considerate. Ouyang Yongpei's evaluation of Asiha's former boss is very low, and he also has a clear understanding of the behavior of the governor of Henan, Lushan County Commander directly stabbed the matter to Asha, after Asha sent someone to verify, he did not go to the court to take Wang Jun and Li Zhao's official hats, but transferred the news to his own hands, what kind of calculation did Asha want, Ouyang Yongbi was very clear.
Wang Jun and Li Zhao are about to bleed heavily.
But this matter can't stop Ouyang Yongqiu. He will go to Guangdong next month, and Ouyang Yongbi just wants Wang Jun's obedient knowledge.
"You go back and tell Li Zhao, be more interesting, hand in your resignation, and go home!"
As an official with professional ethics, Ouyang Yongpei can tolerate Wang Jun, but he can never tolerate Li Zhao. As Chang Rui said, where is the majesty of the imperial court? Where is the decency of officials?
Tumenji is already doing a prosperous business, can this matter be hidden for a while? Sooner or later, won't it be known by the people of Lushan and even the people of Ruzhou? When the time comes, it will be the face of the Qing Dynasty.
Of all the officials involved in this matter, Li Zhao is the least worthy of understanding. Chang Rui is also greedy, but Chang Rui's loyalty to the Qing Dynasty is obvious to all, if it weren't for his pure heart, this matter would really be covered by Ruzhou.
What about Wang Jun? It is also worth considering. This incident happened in the county under his hands, is it normal for officials to cover the lid. And he also mobilized the militia to encircle and suppress, but the thieves were too strong and did not succeed.
Xu Shilian will not end well. As a soldier, the soldiers who led the Qing Dynasty could not defeat a mere hero, so how could such an officer not deal with it to boost the morale of the army? But Xu Shilian's affairs will be handled by Nanyang Town, and the Daotai Yamen can't control Qiu Ba of the Green Camp.
Finally, there is Li Zhao. Everyone has a greedy heart, Ouyang Yongqi is not a saint, and he will not lose a cent of the money he should take. But the most important thing to be an official is to be loyal to the court, what is Li Zhao?
Lustful and timid, forgetting righteousness when seeing small profits, and doing big things and sparing their lives!
To put it more seriously, Li Zhao is disloyal to the imperial court!
Wang Juntou'er's beads of sweat flowed faster. "Don't worry, my lord, Li Zhao has been in poor health since Lu Shan's return. The lower officials will convince him. ”
"Then your Excellency will go back. In heavy snowy weather, the official will not keep you. Be careful on the road. ”
"Thank you, Lord for your understanding."
"Let's go back! Next year, when the officers and troops enter the crackdown, they must work hard. ”
"The lower officials dare not to do their best. The next official retires! ”
Wang Jun, who came out of the small flower hall, was sweating all over, and was excited by the cold outside, and people shivered instantly. It was a shiver of relief. God knows how worried and uneasy Wang Jun was on the way to Shaanzhou. He couldn't sleep at night, and he couldn't swallow the taste.
And now that's all in the past.
The unlucky ones will be Li Zhao and Xu Shilian, of course they also have influence, but at least the official position under the ass will not move. Wang Junhou's entourage outside hurriedly put on a thick cloak for him, and Wang Jun, who didn't want to stay in the Daotai Yamen for a moment or in Shaanzhou for a moment, walked out quickly.
The first thing he did when he returned to Ruzhou would be to find Li Zhao, and then he would try to raise five thousand taels of silver to send filial piety to the governor in the name of ice and charcoal. Of course, there is also Lord Ouyang, this Dao platform that is going to go will definitely be subject to Wang Zhizhou's thick Cheng Yi next month.
The carriage braved the wind and snow and drove out of the city gate of Shaanzhou. Wang Jun had already changed into clean clothes, and the brazier in the carriage exuded heat to dispel the cold.
……
Tumen set outside. A convoy of wagons and horses drove out of the market in the bitter cold, wind and snow.
Since the government loosened the ban on Tumenji, a large number of food and materials have flocked to replace truckloads of good iron.
Now no one doubts that the Chen family is really one of the suppliers of the private iron den in Xiangxian County. The iron quality of the Chen family is absolutely first-class. And the amount is also very good. Of course, for some heroes, and even for some people who can't be on the stage, the Chen family's knives, guns and muskets are also very good.
Therefore, with the permission of the government, sulfur and saltpeter were flowed into Fenghuangtai in small batches but continuously. The rules of the Chen family are that if you want iron, grain and livestock salt seasonings are OK, but if you want swords and firearms, then use sulfur and saltpeter in exchange.
Many of these people who came with sulfur and saltpeter to exchange knives, guns and firearms did not know the origin of the Chen family, and it is understandable that people should keep this kind of taboo thing secret.
You must know that in addition to the Xu family, in the secret transaction, the Chen family also sold three other iron cannons. The weight is about 100 catties, and the power is equivalent to the tiger squat cannon, which is an export-oriented tiger squat cannon.
Lushan County Ya. Chang Rui looked at the white servant in front of him angrily, "Waste." Get back to the officer. If there will be more firearms flowing out of the Tumen, this official will pick your skin! Chang Rui was really furious. He didn't even find out who the chariots and horses that rushed out from Tumenji, but only found out that they were weapons and firearms in the process of hard work.
