078 There is a high-ranking official who wants to marry his daughter to Shen Gongzi
Zhang Zhou's family has no way to do this, "Now, we can only solve the ...... of money and grain in the imperial court as soon as possible."
The emperor said that if the money and food were settled, the impeachment really happened, and he would not be held accountable. In this way, if you do a good job of money and food, you will be pursued and fined at most. If you count on the little money of the imperial court, Zhang Peiju's family is estimated to have been unable to open the pot for a long time.
Obviously, Chongzhen used this matter to force Zhang Peiju, but it really didn't work, and it was estimated that he would have to pay money from the Zhang family to protect the official.
At nightfall, two dusty middle-aged men entered through the back door of Zhang's house, and then Zhang Peiju received a letter from Dinghai County.
"Master, a letter from Dinghai!"
The old servant Zhang Qi didn't bother to knock on the door, and pushed open the door of the study.
Zhang Peiju took the letter, quickly scanned the contents of the letter by the light of the candle, and then laughed wildly.
Mrs. Zhang was about to reproach the old servant, when she heard the strange laughter of the Xianggong, turned her head to look at him, and found that Zhang Peiju was dancing.
"Master, why are you so happy?" Don't you become crazy!
The Zhang Zhou family is now supported by Zhang Peiju, and the two descendants need to be promoted by Zhang Peiju.
What's more, even if Zhang Zhou's father Zhou Jiamo is still there, he can't compare with Zhang Peiju.
Nanjing's Hubu Shangshu, the power and status cannot be compared with the Shangshu in Bauhinia City, and even the squire here.
The Nanjing Imperial Court is a place of exile for officials, and the official positions there are also a comfort, and the courtiers can be promoted when they reach the age of years. The fact that Zhou Jiamo was only given the position of Shangshu at the age of eighty-three speaks for itself.
"Madame, read the letter. Your decision to arrange Qiao'er to go back is really wise, even without the support of the He family and others, the matter of entering the cabinet is safe! Zhang Peiju did not hide his joy in his heart and handed the letter to his wife.
The previous gloom was swept away.
"Zhang Qi, let someone get some food and scald a pot of wine." When the mood is good, the appetite is there.
The old servant turned around and went to arrange.
Zhang Zhou quickly scanned the contents of the letter, and the more he looked at the wrinkles on his face, the more they bloomed.
"It's a pity that the children of the Zhou family are all married, and those who are not married are also stupid. Otherwise, if you marry Qiao'er, you can at least keep your wealth for decades! Master, since the grievances between the two families are designed by the girl, there is no need to worry about the responsibility of taking people's land. The latter strategy is more than enough to solve the financial and grain crisis of the imperial court......" Zhang Zhoushi was full of emotion after reading it.
Zhang Peiju sighed, "If she is a man, it is not difficult for my Zhang family to have three bachelors." Ming'er went to court, and the old man dedicated this method! ”
"No! Master, we don't know who is behind this. If you come up with this plan now, and the court has not reached the point where it is impossible to implement it, and it is unknown whether it will be adopted, Your Majesty may suspect that you, like other courtiers, accuse the royal family of competing with the people for ......profit," Zhang Zhou said solemnly.
The royal family was flourishing and the encroachment on the land was serious, and many ministers wrote to accuse the royal family of competing with the people for profit, and let the royal family return the land to the people, which made the relationship between the emperor and the ministers very bad.
"But the situation in Shandong is erosive, and Laizhou and Dengzhou are all important towns......"
"Zhu Dadian patrolled Shandong, and His Majesty ordered the soldiers to be stationed in Qingzhou to dispatch food for the troops. The court has no salary, how can Zhu Dadian not know? Will he sit still? Zhang Zhou pouted and said, "Besides, the smoke is everywhere, and the ministers are all for the benefit of the family, who thinks about the imperial court?" Doesn't the emperor know that the household has no money and food? I have to use this to persecute the public! Ningbo Mansion, why did he get the news so quickly? ”
There were many secret agencies in the Ming Dynasty, monitoring hundreds of officials.
When Wei Zhongxian was there, the major spy agencies of Jinyiwei, East Factory, and West Factory were notorious.
Jiangshan belongs to the Zhu family.
The Zhu family is gone, and the ministers can not accompany the Zhu family to the funeral, and it is their consideration to protect the interests of the family and their own status.
Zhang Peiju is not a pedantic person, otherwise he would not have planned to enter the cabinet.
"Master, the Shen family kid is not a fuel-efficient lamp. The Shen family declined, threw away everything from the Shen family, and started over; And see the weakness of the Zhang family, come to talk to Shanlu about cooperation, if you are an official in the court......"
"This son is not a thing in the pool. It's not that Qiao'er's chastity is broken, the He family regrets the marriage, or Qiao'er kills him to save his reputation; Either he has to marry Qiao'er one way. I'll fix a letter and let Shanlu do it. Zhang Peiju now doesn't need to take advantage of marriage, just give him a suggestion from the letter, and then make a contract with the Zhang family, and find that Shen Yue is extraordinary.
When he thought about it, he wanted to include this kid in the Zhang family system.
"Master, Ming'er will take a trip back to the concubine to learn more about this matter, and then take a look at that kid by the way." Zhang Zhou said.
"So good, you haven't been home for years." Mrs. went back in person, Zhang Peiju was more assured, if he could, he wanted to go back in person.
The letter briefly stated that Shen Yue's proposal would not only solve the crisis of the Zhang family, but also allow the enemies of the DPRK and China to be taken down......
Of course, there are many things in this that make Zhang Peiju wonder why the emperor knew what had just happened in Ningbo Mansion and directly sent someone to investigate the matter; Why do the Shen family know so much about the situation between the DPRK and China; Did the Zhang family really seize the Shen family's 3,000 acres of land......
"Be careful about this. Sir, Your Majesty must know something about this matter alone. If it weren't for Qiao'er's plan, the Zhang family would be in a catastrophe. The latter matter, from Shanlu's letter, it can be seen that the Shen family repaid 30,000 taels at a loss, knowing that they were designed by the Zhao family and did not shout injustice, and used the house to pay off the debts of Chunfeng Building...... The things that followed were already out of control...... "Zhang Zhou also had a lot to figure out.
The Zhang family and the Shen family had a debt of 100,000 taels of silver, and the letter said that it was actually 30,000 taels, but the Shen family had lost a lot of money, grain and goods before, which was a fact.
The boy of the Shen family in front of Guanyin Temple tuned @ Zhang Qiaoer, deliberately.
How can Zhang Shanlu joke about the reputation of the only girl's chastity?
"I'm just worried that Shanlu wants to accumulate more land for future generations, and even if the future generations don't make it, as long as they don't do too much, they can become rich people by collecting rent. Madame, when you go, don't ask Shanlu directly, but learn about the surrounding neighborhood. Zhang Peiju frowned and said, "Back then, the eldest brother carried the burden and traveled around the countryside to sell goods for me to study and gain fame, if it was ......."
He couldn't go on.
Among the courtiers, many of the children of the family were arrogant, bullying and dominating the market, and seizing people's property.
But the courtiers were not clear, and they lost their official status because of these things.
"Master, when the concubine went back, one was to go to Nanzhili to see the elder brother in the family, and the other was that I felt that this matter was too difficult for people to figure out. If Shanlu really takes away people's land and family property, he must deal with the aftermath before Luo Cheng......" Zhang Zhou was also worried about such a thing.
The husband and wife called the messenger and did not ask what was going on.
The two didn't know as much as the letter said.
This made the doubts in the hearts of the couple even worse.
