Chapter 0232 It's White Lotus Again
Chongzhen was in the capital, watching more and more ... His own people felt extremely happy, and when he looked at the private letter that Ning Zhiyuan gave him, he was suddenly excited. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
He is the Son of Heaven, he is the world, why didn't he come up with such a good way before, all the scholars in the world are his protégés, so he decided to use this method immediately, and then prepared to reorganize the officials......
Rectification is rectification, but after all, not all of them are copied from home, last time the book of the first criminal department was taken down by Chongzhen, and the curious baby was under Ning Zhiyuan's strong request, so he copied it again, the harvest was huge, Chongzhen was also very happy, but he still felt guilty in his heart, and felt that as an emperor, it was immoral to rob his courtiers, so he did not allow himself to do this, he was such Chongzhen.
Because of the last time he copied the home of the criminal department, and the income of his own Huangzhuang has increased recently, Chongzhen has become rich, and his money is only used for the country, so in addition to disaster relief, the soldiers finally got some military salaries, although they can't get the full amount as always, but they can let them live without rebellion, so the anti-people momentum is declining day by day, and the thirty-six battalions of anti-thieves themselves can't see the future, but also in Hong Chengchou's place, with money, he can recruit more soldiers, as for Cao Wenzhao, He only used cavalry, so the number was still the same.
All of a sudden, all the people living in the south felt a vibrant scene, and in the northwest region, due to Chongzhen's huge actions, Zhou Yanru is now honest, all the disaster relief funds are in place, although there are still more monks and less porridge, but they can mix food and clothing without starvation, and they don't have to rush to rebel, Daming was peaceful for a while.
It's just a few cities in the northeast, and there are still many Han people who are treated as slaves......
There is no war in the Ming Dynasty for the time being, Houjin is also going all out to occupy the grassland, the rebellion in Shaanxi in the northwest is nothing, and Chongzhen is also going all out to capture the imperial court......
...........
Li Dingguo finally entered Yansui, as Ning Zhiyuan said, this is indeed a peculiar place, from adults to women and children, there is a vague air of coldness... Ahem... This is just Li Dingguo's preconceived idea, and it is just a strong folk style.
They rarely farm land, and they are proud to kill thieves and receive rewards, but in recent years, the situation of the imperial court does not say that you have killed a few thieves, even if you destroy a Mongolian cavalry, there may not be any actual reward, just like Ning Daguan destroyed tens of thousands of Tumut foreign cavalry, how great is the momentum for a while, this war merit is not a problem, but Chongzhen only gave a second-grade prince Shaobao, why? Because he can't afford it anymore.
So the group of aunts and aunts in Yansui lived a careful life, fortunately, they had strong combat effectiveness, and the anti-thieves couldn't rob their things, and they repelled several anti-thief attacks, and the life was very stable, Hong Chengchou also came to recruit soldiers a few times, but they left their hometowns and died, and the military salary was not guaranteed, and the life was not easy but it was not that they couldn't go on, and no one wanted to go, not to mention that their lives were slowly getting better now.
Ningxia's commercial activities are slowly stationed in this town, making money is nothing to make money, but it is still very good to earn people's hearts, Yansui is not far from Ningxia, the Li family's porcelain factory is located here, sweet potatoes have also been introduced, many shops have been opened, and then, Li Dingguo has opened a big dart game here, recruiting young and strong men, and the treatment is preferential.
As for Li Dingguo's original troops of nearly 10,000 troops, they also had another role......
............
Daming is peaceful, in fact, a test of whether this kind of peace has always been a test of whether it is peaceful or not is whether the scholars who visit the kiln are talking nonsense, obviously not now, they are still bothering to carry out a political reform, so a country in the twilight of the dynasty has shown a different kind of vitality.
Ning Daguan has received more people from the Tianxia Society in the past few days, because of the news of this, so the scholars in the Jiangnan area are eager to do this, so they rushed to come, Chongzhen seems to be afraid that Ning Zhiyuan is tired, and he also sent his own henchmen and eunuchs everywhere to preside over the matter, but the effect is chatting, and Shizimen seems to recognize Ning Zhiyuan's signboard.
And those who know the news of Ning Daguan's people are not only scholars, but also... Tian family.
It was the first time that Ning Daguan saw the Tian family living in Tianhe, and this old man was saluting him because of the difference in status, at this time Tian He looked haggard, and... Still empty-handed, Ning Zhiyuan is very disappointed, although he has always adhered to the principle of treating money as dung, but he doesn't mind digging a few more fertilizer pools in Ningxia... Right?
"Tian Yuanwai, it's really a long time to look up to it, last time I accidentally lost my mouth and seriously injured Ling Gongzi, I have been thinking about coming to the door to ask for guilt, but I have no choice but to be entangled in business, forgive me." Ning Daguan waited for Tian He to see the ceremony and then said, no matter how he listened to it, there was a bit of sincerity.
Seriously injured by a mistake? The corners of Tian He's mouth twitched, and he said busily, "It's true that my lord still asks for forgiveness... The dog is ignorant and ignorant and collides with adults and ******, it's really damn damned..."
"Hmm... It's really damned, so I don't know if Ling Gongzi is dead now? Ning Zhiyuan said with a playful smile, and the folding fan in his hand kept changing its movements, which was very chic.
Tian He's face was stunned, and then he opened his mouth to say something, but he was waved by Ning Daguan and said, "Okay, okay, let's get down to business." ”
"I also know what happened to Tian Yuan, I think you yourself know, this time the matter is not just to break the fortune and eliminate the disaster, so many people outside the official asked to see them and ignored them, it is also because he is also an old acquaintance, and he can't bear to see the suffering outside the staff..."
"Tian Mou knows that the adult is high-spirited..."Tian He said quietly, these clichés in the officialdom are not strange, and there is some helplessness in his tone, "But this matter is really not my Tian family's doing, otherwise wouldn't it be self-defeating?" Now that this matter is known to everyone, and the Tian family is also pointed out by Wanfu, it is already in danger, why doesn't Tian know? ”
"You don't have to tell this official, if you still want to keep the Tian family, you can only show evidence, but there must be no evidence outside the staff." Ning Zhiyuan said lightly, he really didn't care about this matter, and he didn't have a good impression of the Tian family, but if he could make a profit, he wouldn't mind intervening.
"Tian has no evidence, but if he can keep the Tian family, Tian is willing to give half of the family property as a reward." Tian He took a deep breath and said, at this time, he had no other way but to break the jar and break it, if this matter is determined, the family property will be confiscated, and the family will not be able to go directly to prison and be distributed, and the end will be much more miserable.
"Half of the family property..."Ning Zhiyuan was a little stunned in his heart, Rao is he felt that he had a big appetite enough to have a few million taels of silver would be very satisfied, because after all, it was only partial wealth, but how could half of the Tian family also have ten million taels of silver, or even tens of millions of taels...!
Ning Daguan took a long breath, looked at Tian He again, and said suspiciously, "This is still the emperor doesn't know the situation of your Tian family, and you can be exempted from the crime by directly handing over this condition to the emperor, you have to give this benefit to Lord Ben, do you honestly have any intentions?" ”
"Please keep our Tian family safe." Tian He said suddenly.
............
This is a more complicated matter, this thought flashed through Ning Zhiyuan's mind, and he didn't say anything, just looked at the old man Tian opposite with blazing eyes.
"If Tian directly gives half of the family assets to the emperor, then the remaining half will definitely be valued by all the adults, and it won't last long, this is just one of them." Tian He said, and then his demeanor seemed to have aged a lot, "The second is that Lord Ning has a grudge with the White Lotus Sect, a big enmity, so apart from the adult, Tian Mou can't think of any other way......"
Ning Daguan seemed to be choked with a teacup drinking tea at this time, and frowned and said, "It's the White Lotus Sect again?" So your grain transportation outside the customs is also related to this? ”
Tian He's face changed suddenly, and then he looked at Ning Zhiyuan in horror, and said a little angrily, "My lord, you don't want to frame him, although the Tian family and the adult have old grudges, it is not a big deal, if this is the case, Tian will not give up even if he scatters his family wealth." "The man with that expression couldn't tell if he was angry or frightened, these were two completely different concepts, like... Whether there is treason or not is as important as that.
"Outside the field, do you think this official can guess so accurately, and is it still necessary for this official to be you?" Ning Zhiyuan said earnestly, saying in his heart that Tian He's mental quality is really not covered, and he can still be beaten with the same face after being debunked.
"If the staff is unwilling to say it, forget it, but the cooperation between us will be forgotten, even if the two Tian families are paid, they can't do it, and the official can't just be kept in the dark and be a fool." Ning Daguan took a sip of tea and said lightly, "This official has been waiting here for many days... Ah, you know that, right? ”
"I know a." Tian He said in his heart, he was silent, and he had already explained the problem.
This is also a coincidence, since Li Jinshi replaced the men in the shop with soldiers in the Ningxia army a month ago, the original people who were screened and left behind joined the fleet, and then trained like soldiers, and said that they could escort the fleet when they went to sea in the future, because there were only 4,000 people in the entire Ming Dynasty, so the movement was also very small.
The Li family originally had ships, and they began to manufacture them in Ningxia a long time ago, and now there are a lot of them, which is the prototype of Ning Zhiyuan's first naval army, which exists in the form of merchants, and accidentally intercepted the fleet, which will naturally not be stopped in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, the key is that these ships have gone to the Phi Island, which is Li Jun, and is under the control of Li Jun.
Ning Zhiyuan was quite satisfied with his move, it was really a secret development of strength, and his wealth was not exposed, and then when he received a letter saying that he had intercepted the Ming grain team, it was still from the Tian family in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and the feeling in Ning Daguan's heart at that time could be described as a bewilderment, and then he thought that the Tian family was going to surrender to the enemy at this time, but he did not make a noise, until today, the Tian family came to the door, indicating that they still need to rescue themselves, and it should not be possible to surrender to the enemy.
There was a White Lotus Sect mixed in the middle, Ning Zhiyuan felt that everything made sense, at least he could barely give an explanation, after all, people rebelled and asked for money, and the Tian family was rich... Ning Daguan suddenly felt as if something flashed in his mind, the Tian family was rich, so with the appearance of the White Lotus Sect, what about the Li family before...?
If that's the case, then ......
............
“... My lord..."Tian He's face was full of helplessness, this is the fifth time he has shouted, didn't he say that he would let himself think about it, why did he think about it himself and ignore people? He still didn't dare to slap Ning Zhiyuan, so he could only continue to shout.
Ning Zhiyuan's posture of maintaining a thinker finally loosened, then looked at Tian He and said, "Were you just shouting this official...?" Tell me something. ”
Tian He was not qualified to judge the blank look on Ning Daguan's face at this time, and then sighed and said, "Since I signed a document with those spinners at a high price last time, the original intention was to suppress the Li family, but unfortunately it backfired, and the Li family became stronger and stronger, but Rao is so, it is not a problem for my Tian family to bear those losses, and then a businessman came to the door... He said that he could buy those raw materials at a price two percent higher, Tian Mou naturally didn't believe it at first, even if that person was a child of the Shen family, I didn't believe it, because the current situation is except for the Li family, whoever collects the cloth loses money, but the other party said that it is... Sold to the Northeast..."
"At first, I hesitated, because he also said that he would transport grain to the Northeast, how can I do this, it is a major matter of raiding the family and exterminating the clan! But then the other party said that as long as 100,000 stones are transported at a time, there will be no need to transport them in the future, and the other party's grain is still bought at the market price of one or two stones, so I agreed, after all, now that there is sweet potato grain, it is no longer valuable, and the Tian family does not have to worry about these cloths..."
"How did you live so big?" Ning Daguan was very surprised, "Will Houjin send you 100,000 stone of grain, no... You have not only transported 100,000 stones, but 200,000 stones. Ning Daguan was furious, "Now you still dare to lie to Lord Ben, are you looking for death!" ”
"This.... Ay... The adult is really powerful, let's listen to Tian, how dare I lie to you again. Tian He was stunned for a moment and said, "The Tian family only has 100,000 stones, or 100,000 stones belong to the Shen family, and because of this, Tian believes it." ”
"But I didn't know that someone broke into Tian's house at night not long after, but fortunately, someone was caught, but it was said that the White Lotus taught me, let me join them, and I have the skill of following the dragon."
Tian He had a disdainful expression on his face, and then reacted that it was Ning Zhiyuan on the other side who restrained himself a little and said, "How could Tian agree to this matter, but who knows..."
"Who knew they were threatening you with your enemies?" Ning Daguan sneered, "Then do you know that this matter is a trap from beginning to end." ”
"Tian is not a fool, how can he not find out now." Tian He smiled bitterly, "It's just that the big mistake has been made, and it's too late to make amends......"
"That's right..."Ning Daguan nodded seriously, "This matter spreads, your Tian family is dead, not to mention the punishment of the nine clans, the three clans are still sure to be beheaded." ”
"--" Tian He smiled bitterly.
