When Wu Jin led the old man Kong Zhiqi up, the buried woman had already been laid flat on the wooden board and simply covered with a reed mat. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Although it is already summer, because the buried body has not been killed for a long time, the smell is not very strong, and the basic appearance can still be distinguished on the face, and the old man Kong Zhiqi directly recognized this as his daughter as soon as he came, and immediately cried.

"My poor son, what can you do for your father!"

At this time, Yidongchang also walked to Wu Jin's side and said:

"Boss, we have examined the corpse of this woman as you have ordered, and we estimate that she has not been dead for a long time, and that she must have been flogged to death, because there are whip marks on her back and legs, and there are lacerations in some of her intimate parts;

It seems that he should have been inhumanly abused before he died, and the means are not cruel, and our Dongchang is slightly inferior in comparison, and the key is just a thirteen-year-old cardamom girl. ”

After hearing this, Wu Jin also walked over and lifted the reed mat and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help retching, holding his breath and scolding:

"What a brute. Inferior people can do such a unconscionable thing", and then he ordered someone to protect the scene, and re-selected the site to bury Yuan Chonghuan, and he himself immediately rushed back to report to Zhu Youxiao.

The deceased's father, Kong Zhiqi, had already fainted from crying, and after being relieved a little, he was directly taken back to the imperial boat by the people of Dongchang to rest, and asked him to be ready for the summons of His Majesty the Emperor at any time.

Kong Zhiqi was replaced by hatred for the brutal murderer after his sadness, and when he knew that His Majesty wanted to uphold justice for himself, he also actively cooperated.

After Wu Jin reported the matter to Zhu Youxiao, Zhu Youxiao was also stunned, and he was also angry at this appalling thing in his heart, but Zhu Youxiao did not directly hand it over to Shan 0dong to deal with it directly according to the inspector, but asked Wu Jin to send people to conduct a secret investigation first.

Zhu Youxiao is not sure whether this matter has anything to do with the government, if there is, then its origin must be not small, so Zhu Youxiao does not have to be so careful, and still focuses on the matter of the official gentry paying for food.

……

Here, as soon as Zhu Youxiao's words as an official gentry came out, the hall that was still smiling at first suddenly became surprisingly quiet, and it was almost audible.

Kong Yinzhi's heart couldn't help but tighten, and an embarrassed smile appeared on his face.

And Gu Tingzhuo, the political envoy of Shan 0 Dongbu, simply let out a sneer and shook his head slightly.

According to the envoy of Shan 0dong, there was a feeling of sudden thunder, and the whole person didn't know what to say at once.

The major newspapers have already launched a debate on the policies of the official gentry to pay grain in one, apportionment into the mu, and increase the amount and width of commercial tax collection, and these cultural people in Shandong naturally know this, and they also know that once the newspaper proposes something, then it is very likely that the imperial court will implement what policy.

Therefore, these Shandong gentry also heard some rumors that His Majesty was going to implement the new policy, but they did not expect that His Majesty would really take Shandong as a pilot, and it was the official gentry they were most unwilling to accept to pay for grain, which was tantamount to depriving the scholars of the privileges and benefits they had enjoyed for thousands of years.

Although Zhu Youxiao said that this was the meaning of Yuan Keli, the new governor of Shan0dong, no one could guess that this must be His Majesty's idea, otherwise Yuan Keli would not have served as the governor of Shan0dong.

However, in the face of this iron-blooded emperor who can kill dozens of Donglin Party officials and directly confiscate the eight Jin merchants, the officials and gentry did not dare to oppose Zhu Youxiao openly, and they could only remain silent, and they all wanted to listen to Kong Yinzhi, the holy prince of Kong Yan, after all, among those present, the real one who has the most to do is his Kong family.

Officials may disagree with the integrated payment of grain by the officials and gentry and even protect these squires, but they are not local scholars in Shandong after all, and the implementation of the integrated payment of grain by the officials and gentry in Shandong will not have much impact on them.

Therefore, the real key is Kong Yinzhi's opinion.

Zhu Youxiao also looked at Kong Yinzhi, these days, his emperor has given enough face to this Kong Yan Holy Prince, in addition to sacrificing Confucius, he also specially added the official title of Prince Kong Yinzhi again, and at the same time, he also hinted that as long as Kong Yinzhi cooperates with the court, he can be crowned a prince.

But it is obvious that this Kong Yan Holy Father cares more about the most practical interests, he is one of the largest landlords in Qu 0 Fu and even in the entire Shan0 East, and letting him pay grain is equivalent to making him give the court an incalculable amount of silver taels every year.

Therefore, the Holy Duke of Kong Yan had no intention of compromising on this, and even saw that His Majesty the Emperor did not feel anything because of his hospitality, but he still had to be expropriated with money and grain; Kong Yinzhi began to have a sense of disgust for Zhu Youxiao because of this.

However, Kong Yinzhi did not explicitly refuse, but first stood up and bowed his hand to Yuan Keli, who was also waiting on the side: "Yuan Zhongcheng is a person who is loyal to the country, but why will he not be sympathetic to the people's feelings, and he is also a disciple of Confucius and Mencius. ”

Yuan Ke's face sank like water and did not answer.

And Zhu Youxiao also felt a sense of indignation in his heart, this Kong Yinzhi is really still a stubborn person, although he will be unprincipled in order to protect the interests of the family, but when it comes to the interests of his family, he is unwilling to give in half a step.

At this time, He Zhengchao, who had served as a servant of the temple during the Wanli period, also stood up and said: "Your Majesty, it is absolutely not feasible for Yuan Zhongcheng to play the matter of the officials and gentry paying for food in one piece, this move is undoubtedly competing with the people for profit, like drinking water to quench thirst, please Your Majesty reject Yuan Zhongcheng's proposal." ”

Because Sun Yinzhi opposed the official gentry's integrated payment of grain, the He family and several other big squires also objected.

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Yuan Keli, and now everyone can see how much resistance has been encountered to the implementation of this reform.

Since these squires clearly objected, Zhu Youxiao didn't plan to give any more good looks, but said directly:

"The dynasty has accumulated disadvantages for a long time, the treasury is empty, so that now can not afford to raise soldiers who dare to fight, and in the event of a famine, and can not take out money to help, the implementation of the new policy is imperative, Yuan Keli's officials and gentry pay food in one according to my view, it is a great thing for the country and the people, although everyone here will suffer some losses, but compared to the chaos in the world, the dynasty overturned, this is nothing."

Saying that, Zhu Youxiao instructed again: "Yuan Keli, the governor of Shan0dong, listens to the order, and I will immediately promote you to the prime minister of the right capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to supervise the military and political affairs of Shandong. ”

Kong Yinzhi and the other squires saw that His Majesty the Emperor Zhu Youxiao directly and categorically proposed to implement the integrated payment of grain by the officials and gentry, ignoring their objections just now, these squires were naturally very angry, but they did not dare to do anything directly to Zhu Youxiao, His Majesty the Emperor, so they could only endure it, and looked at Yuan Keli with fire in their eyes.
