Qi Changshi soothed: "The prince is angry. The Zhu Demon King and the prince are still in their own family, so they will not rebel in the future. He clashed with the boat gang, and it should be that the boat gang Yuan Boss went too far. Hearing that the Zhu Demon King was robbed of more than 3,000 taels of silver, it is no wonder that he made such a decision. ”

"More than three thousand taels?" King Min said angrily: "This Yuan Youzhi dared to privately swallow the silver of the lonely king, and he should be killed." ”

Steward Shao worried: "It's not a pity that Yuan Youzhi died, but the boat gang was destroyed, how can the prince's goods be transported?" ”

"I heard that the Zhu Demon King is screening the people of the ship gang, and the crew members who are not guilty can be released. It is better to give the Zhu Demon King a favor and let him come forward to form a new boat gang to transport goods for the prince. ”

Zhu Qifeng, who was rarely clear-headed, shook his head and said, "It's not appropriate." Zhu Demon King is notorious, and let him control the boat gang, how to check and balance? The world of Wugang is not the world of the Zhu family. Hey, no, the Zhu Demon King is also surnamed Zhu, even if he is allowed to be in charge, it is still the Zhu family. It's just that how should the lone king deal with himself? "Lord Min was confused by himself.

"Anyway, it's not right." Prince Min shook his head and said: "Qi Changshi, report to the imperial court, there is a strong man who is a disaster in Wugang Prefecture, and wants to rebel, please send troops to exterminate it." ”

"Steward Shao, you went to the Zhizhou Yamen and told Li Timing that Wugang Prefecture is still the world of the Zhu family, and bandits are rampant, how did he act as a Zhizhou?"

"Qi Changshi, if you go to the book Baoqing Mansion Xiao Zhongqi, the dignified prefect, you don't know that there is a bandit like Zhu Demon King under your hands. When the Zhu Demon King rebels, do you still want the black gauze hat and head on his head? ”

Qi Changshi and Steward Shao glanced at each other, and they both saw helplessness and ruthlessness in each other's eyes.

………………

The boss of the boat gang Yuan was killed on the spot, and the backbone was also killed for resisting when Li Dingguo encircled and suppressed the dock, and the rest of the people were besieged at the dock, trembling with fear.

One by one, the men were called out and never returned. Fear envelops these family members, is the Zhu Demon King going to kill the Boat Gang? The timid woman began to sob, the child cried even more, and the old man shook his head helplessly, muttering "retribution" in his mouth.

When the inspection department brought food, everyone's hearts settled down a little. If you can stutter, you won't commit massacres.

Seeing the good face of the soldier who delivered the meal, a bold woman asked: "Master Jun, my man was pulled out, when will he come back?" ”

"I can't say for sure." The young soldier shook his head and said, "The Military Discipline Department is screening whether the boat gang has committed crimes such as murder and robbery. Those who have committed crimes are first detained, and then after trial, they are sent to prison and re-education through labor. If you are not guilty, you will be released back in a few days. ”

"Really, that's great." The woman was pleasantly surprised: "My mouth is a wreck, I don't dare to kill chickens, I definitely didn't commit a crime." Bodhisattva bless ......"

………………

The screening of the boat gang is proceeding slowly. Zhu Shunming received the report and personally came to Wugang Prefecture to carry out the second step of the "scarecrow" plan.

Wugang, since the Western Han Dynasty began to form a town, known as Duliang in history, to the Ming Chongzhen period has a history of about 2,000 years. Located at the junction of Huguang, Guangxi and Guizhou, it is an important town in the southwest, with developed commerce and strong folk customs.

Wugang is also an important distribution center for black tea. The black tea was pressed to make one hundred taels of tea and one thousand taels of tea, and it was transported to the grassland in exchange for scarce horses by the Han people.

King Min moved from Yunnan to Wugang during the reign of Renzong, and he spent more than 200 years in Wugang. After several Min kings kept building, the city wall of Wugang was tall and thick, and the moat introduced the living water of the canal water river, the river was wide and deep, and the guard was strict.

Historically, Wugang also served as the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

Emperor Yongli of the Southern Ming Dynasty fled westward, stayed in Wugang for a period of time, and established a small imperial court with the Minwang Palace as his palace.

It can be seen that Wugang Prefecture was very prosperous and important during the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Shunming can easily enter Wugang, first, he has a heart and no intention. The main forces guarding Takeoka Castle were Takeoka Senho and the Imperial Guard.

Because of the rebellion of the mountain people in Yunnan, most of the troops of the Qianhusuo were transferred to quell the rebellion and guard the emptiness.

In addition, Zhu Shunming has infiltrated Wugang Prefecture for a long time, and the information in the city will be collected on Zhu Shunming's desk. There are not a few key personnel who have been instigated to rebel.

The second is that Hu Guangcheng has been in peace for a long time and neglected to defend, which made Zhu Shunming take advantage of a loophole. Otherwise, Wugang City, which has tall walls and a wide moat, Zhu Shunming will have to work hard to defeat it.

Looking at the tall city wall, Zhu Shunming sighed: "No matter how strong the city wall is, it can't prevent the laxity in my heart." Learn this lesson. ”

………………

"Boss," Qi Changshi said with a sad face, "If King Min is ...... The little ones also finished playing. ”

"Is there a turning back arrow when you open the bow?" Zhu Shunming smiled and said, "Once King Min knows your role in the incident, I'm afraid it will ......."

"You discuss it with Director Shi, and the scarecrow plan will be implemented as soon as possible. Naturally, I won't treat you badly. ”

………………

Within a few days, Wugang Prefecture Yiqing Courtyard came to a flower Oiran Yingshan Hong, ordinary people and other rare faces, but all the guests who entered the curtain were full of praise, and they were famous for a while.

Lord Min overheard the captain of the guard boasting that Yingshanhong was good at kung fu, empathetic, "blowing, playing and singing" in everything, and all kinds of postures were full of tricks, and he couldn't help but be moved.

There are countless women in the palace, but there is not one of the guards who has the kung fu in the mouth, let alone fancy skills.

After dressing up in disguise, Lord Min tasted the taste of Yingshan red. Sure enough, there was a different taste. Yingshanhong's skillful skills made King Min enjoy the treatment of a real prince.

After being satisfied, Lord Min asked curiously, "Shall I redeem myself for you?" ”

"Do adults want to take a little girl as a concubine? The little woman's ransom was very high. "Yingshan is red and delicate, and her face is pure.

Lord Min was a little embarrassed. It is easy for the prince to take a concubine, but it may not be easy to accept a dusty woman to enter the door.

"Why don't you keep the little girl in the outer room?" Yingshan Hongshui's big eyes stared at the prince, with a look of anticipation.

………………

didn't have time to redeem himself, and Zhu Qifeng, the king of Min, had the upper hand.

Returning to the palace from the Pleasant Courtyard, King Min felt very excited. It's a worthwhile trip.

Thinking that the innocent Yingshan red bed was so open, King Min especially wanted to try the newly learned posture on his wife and concubine.

The new posture is really enjoyable, and King Min can't stop. After a night of tossing, I really got a stroke.

King Min was unconscious, and King Min's mansion was in chaos. It was still Shao's housekeeper Lao Cheng who was serious and invited the former imperial doctor Hu Taiyi from Baoqing Mansion.

Imperial Physician Hu deserves to be called the imperial doctor, he quickly stabilized King Min's condition, so that King Min's breathing was stable, his body temperature dropped, and he could open his eyes, but he could no longer move speech.

"Princess Niangniang, the reason for the prince's illness is ...... Because...... Excessive indulgence hurts the inside, and now I can only recuperate. When it will recover, it is not easy to say when it will be decrepit. ”

The princess was furious and drove the concubine who made the prince out of the palace.

The immobile prince, the weak princess and the young prince made the power of the Min Wangfu gradually grasped by Qi Changshi and Steward Shao.

………………

"You Han people are insidious," She Miaohua wrapped around Zhu Shunming like a beautiful snake, and her tongue was like a snake letter: "Playing conspiracy and trickery is not a hero." ”

Zhu Shunming didn't care and said: "Success and defeat, history is written by the victors." Whoever stands in my way will be eliminated by history. ”

She Miaohua ate and smiled, and said coquettishly: "The little girl likes to listen to you say serious and shameless things." ”

Zhu Shunming didn't care. He is actually quite indulgent with his own women.

"Eh, can't your sister be born invisible?"

She Miaohua raised her head and said seriously: "I haven't seen it since I was a child. She has always felt that she has dragged me down, and she is strong for me. If you dare to treat her badly, I'll ......."

"Eh, tap, tap, you're crazy......"

"If you're not good to her, I'...... Let you have to wind it right away. "She Miaohua's eyes are like silk.

"To be serious, Lianrong's eyes react to light, and getting her a pair of glasses another day may allow her to see things."

"Really? That's great. She Miaohua was pleasantly surprised: "If you can let Lianrong see things, our sisters will follow you wholeheartedly." ”

………………

Wugang Zhizhou Li Timing felt very depressed. Three lives are unfortunate, and the county is attached to Guo; Three lives do evil, attached to the provincial city of Guo; The evil is full of evil, attached to Guo Jingcheng.

Wugang Prefecture is not attached to Guo, but there is a prince living in the city, which is more disgusting than the provincial capital of Fuguo.

The prince enjoys his rights, but he will not fulfill his obligations. And the prince can go straight to the sky, and he can't be slack off on him, otherwise an impeachment note can make Li Timing's head black.

Like all the princes of the Zhu family, Prince Min is arrogant, lascivious, greedy for money, lustful, and spares no effort to loot the people's fat and ointment.

After hundreds of years of encroachment, King Min has pocketed more than fifty percent of Wugang Prefecture's fertile land, most of the shops, and almost all the commercial outlets that make money.

The most important thing is that King Min does not pay taxes.

The prince doesn't pay taxes, what can be the use of a few hardships and a few field taxes? The imperial court apportioned the Liao salary again, and it was even more life-threatening. Is it possible to force the common people into rebellion? I heard that the north is already in chaos. Eh, the harsh government is as fierce as a tiger!

Li Timing is the nephew of Li Changgeng, the former secretary of the ministry, a native of Macheng, Huguang, who has read poetry and books since he was a child, and has been worried about the country and the people since he was a child, and has the heart to help the world.

At the beginning of the emperor's accession to the throne, he immediately eradicated the eunuch party, reused the clear stream, abolished the harsh government, and enriched the people. Daming is hopeful!

But who knows, without the eunuchs, the mining tax was abolished, the clear stream was reused, but the rivers were declining day by day, the hungry people in the north were everywhere, and the rebellions were endless, and even the small Jiannu were beaten to Beijing.

What's the problem? Li Timing, who is worried about the country and the people, asks himself from time to time.

Why is the upright uncle (Li Changgeng) not reused? Why is Uncle Mei (Mei Zhihuan), who is both civil and military, in the opposition? Is it wrong for the imperial court to reuse Qingliu? Without the eunuchs, why are the imperial court's finances stretched? Could it be that the eunuchs are more beneficial to the court than the clear stream?

Last year, the Dilong of Changde Mansion turned over, with heavy casualties, and the imperial court did not issue a grain of relief grain, nor did it give a tael of disaster relief silver. Is this still the weather that the Celestial Empire should have?

Isn't Changde Mansion the hometown of Governor Yang (Yang He)? I heard that Governor Yang was imprisoned, could it be that God can't see it? Governor Yang is conscientious and conscientious, and there is no merit and hard work, is it too ...... Harsh and ruthless?

Li Timing, who was influenced by traditional Confucian thought, was puzzled.
