Chapter 144: Nanjing (32)
A flower wine, drinking time is long. After all, Huang Zongxi and the others are not veterans, and Huang Zongxi is still a little old-fashioned, sitting cross-legged on the couch, just constantly thinking about how to discuss with Liu Zongzhou and others to oppose the prince's indiscriminate taxation in the Huai'an area...... As for the use of commercial taxes, Lin Shi is very good at the idea proposed anyway...... In this kind of matter, Huang Zongxi will not be stubborn.
A gentleman chooses to act well, but he doesn't have to be stubborn and old-fashioned!
"Brother Bijiang, I'll take my leave."
"I'm not far away."
It was about the first time of the Western hour, a group of people got out of the river house, Huang Zongxi and as a group, resigned first, and was blown by the wind in the river, and the wine gradually disappeared.
Thinking of what Shi Kefa said: "Take care of the overall situation, be quiet, and don't ...... too much", although I feel that "Shi Gong" is a little nostalgic, but I also regret it very much about what happened to Huang Zongxi and others.
After all, now the crown prince is like Zhongtian, and anyone who is not blind can see that the emperor and the prince father and son do not believe that they are trusting and ministers, and they are also loving fathers and filial sons.
In such a situation, if you want to oppose the prince, it is directly tantamount to rebellion.
No matter how much the imperial power declines, I am afraid it is not as simple as Huang Zongxi and a few nerd scholars think.
However, when I think about the kind of unscrupulous and unscrupulous way that the other party calculates, Mao Xiang feels that the person who is really stupid is afraid that he is himself...... It's just that, after all, he is a son of an official family, and he has always been proud of the Fushe for so many years, and the name of the so-called "Four Sons" has spread all over the south of the Yangtze River, and the thing of breaking his word and getting fat is impossible for him to do in any way.
"If it's great, go home, and at most go to prison, what?"
With an arrogant face, he decided that as promised Huang Zongxi and others, as he promised, whenever there was a move, he would definitely praise Xiang and act together.
"Xianggong, shall we go back?"
Although he was reprimanded by Mao Xiang one after another, Dong Xiaowan's face was still only gentle, and when he asked Mao Xiang with a smile, he also helped him straighten his clothes.
"Uh, okay, let's go back."
Mao Xiang also felt a little sorry in his heart, and agreed immediately.
Seeing him like this, Dong Xiaowan was happy in her heart, so she smiled. This smile is also a natural beauty, not a little worse than Chen Yuanyuan or Kou Baimen, but Mao Xiang was depressed in his heart, where did he notice.
At the moment, Dong Xiaowan is still sitting in a sedan chair, risking to ride a donkey, he is a child of a big family in Rugao County, thousands of acres of fields at home, as well as silk and other money-making things, there are many garden villas in Rugao alone, among which the famous water painting garden has also entertained many colleagues and friends of Donglin Fushe.
I lived in Nanjing, and I didn't know how long I would live, so I lived in a bookstore in the west of the city. However, it is far away from the Qinhuai River, and it is bold and lively, so now the surname Suo moved to the west of the city near the Jubaomen Dagongfang, where he set up a small courtyard, arranged the place, and hired a servant woman, which really cost a lot.
But the place is also really good, Dagongfang here, together with the Wei State Mansion, ten of the ** are living in the family of the nobles, although Nanjing is far worse than Yanjing, but the founding of the country has been hanging for nearly three hundred years, and it is also a gathering of many civil and military relatives including the princes and uncles.
In this way, in the entire workshop, either rich or expensive, Qian Qianyi, the minister of the Military Affairs Department, as well as Xu Shiqi, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, and other officials, also live in the Dagongfang.
At that time, raising a family was also the proper meaning of the rich and noble, each mansion door was more than a dozen or hundred, less than a dozen or twenty, guarding the courtyard, by the way, it was also a gangster on the street to drive away, and rented here, that is, it was safe and clean.
Today it is very different from usual, when approaching Dagongfang, the idlers did not look at a few, but those serious small traders are also invisible, and then look inside, under the angry wind lamp, those nursing homes with protruding chests and bellies, also did not look at one.
"That's not right." Riding on the big green mule, he woke up most of the time, frowned and looked at the surrounding situation, and already realized that something was wrong.
………… In the Qian Mansion, which was less than two miles away from Mao Xiang, Liu Ru was chasing Qian Qianyi with a door bar in his hand.
If you say that in the past, the name of Hedong Jun's lion roar was not given in vain, small talk about old money, or pretending to be stupid and not having sex with the old money, or the unique skills of those women who cried, made trouble, and hanged themselves were all used on Master Qian.
But just started with the master, and there was such a big movement, it really opened the eyes of everyone in the house.
This will not be the afterlife, the life and death of the concubine are in the hands of the master, if you are not careful, give it away, or simply beat it to death, sink the pond or something, it is not a problem.
This time, Liu Ru can be regarded as risking his life...... really angered Qian Qianyi, and it was okay to order someone to beat her to death immediately...... However, Qian Qianyi obviously didn't have this kind of thought, not even a little thought, his delicate face was hit by a bar, and he was very embarrassed with bruises and purples, but Qian Qianyi was just desperately dodging at this time, not daring to resist, let alone calling the people in the house to come over and "take" the Liu family.
Fortunately, he was close to the sixtieth year, and his performance was really not bad, and after running for a while, Liu Ru couldn't catch up with him, but he was tired and bent over, and he had to use the door bar post on the ground at the moment, panting and saying: "Pifu, people are so respectful to you, everything is according to your teachings, and follow your wishes." At the end of the day, you don't say a word, you don't even wake up...... Tell you, if something happens to Mao Gongzi and Xiao Wan, I will never break with you! ”
"Hey!" Qian Qianyi stomped his feet and said, "Where can I know too much?" Don't you know, since I became the Minister of Military Affairs of this Raushzi, I have been in the palace every day before dawn, and in the afternoon I can't open my eyelids, and I have to sleep before it gets dark. There is much less entertainment, where can I hear any tangible news? Today, someone Gao still cares about the old feelings, and what is the instability of the pro-army brought by the prince from Huai'an...... If they want to make trouble, of course, they will go out of the barracks, pass by Dagongfang, and then go to the Xi'an Gate of the Imperial City.
It was originally the barracks of the forbidden army in the imperial city, which was slightly repaired a while ago, and the forbidden army barracks under the guards were also here.
Several ministers in charge of the guards, as well as Qiu Yuanyi, the new chief military officer of Gongsheng Town, also lived in the camp.
The chaos should be in the name of making trouble, and as for why these forbidden troops are short of salary, only people in the bureau can understand it.
Gao Hongtu's warning, Qian Qianyi knew that the situation would be very serious as soon as he heard it.
However, this matter is the Donglin Party colleagues and a group of lords in charge of the forbidden army in the ghost, the Ming army in the guard system before the collapse of the system, except for the Tianshun period of Cao Shi Rebellion by the family Ding and Mongolian Tartar officials mainly forbidden army rebellion, these two hundred years, there has been no rebellion in the camp to disobey the order of the trouble. Even if there is an occasional small upheaval, it will never appear in the capital of the city.
But over the years, especially after Wanli, the soldiers have been the generals, the family has become the main force of the war, the guard army has become the general tenant, the battalion has also become a private soldier, the court has dispatched the generals, and the battalion soldiers have followed the cangtou, this situation has been for decades, the longer the time, the generals are not too much, and the battalion is very common.
In Chongzhen's early years, the governor had a record of dying in the camp, and soon after Yuan Chonghuan took office, he was surrounded by rebels in the camp as a governor and minister, and later promised to pay him, so he barely got out.
By now, even in the city of Nanjing, there will be such a thing at the feet of the Son of Heaven!
Although Gao Hongtu hinted that this mutiny was controlled, it would be below a certain level. But how experienced is Qian Qianyi...... Once the tiger is released from the cage, how can such things be controlled at will?
He was very worried that there were many people who would play with fire and burn themselves!
Today, when I returned to the house, of course, I asked someone to block the door of the house, and it was strictly forbidden for people to go out, and people were also sent on the courtyard wall to watch the movement. After this set of actions, Liu Ru will of course ask the reason...... So Qian Qianyi became a black-eyed chicken...... "Hmph, what do you usually talk about, is it all coaxing?" ”
Seeing Qian Qianyi complaining, Liu Ru threw the stick in his hand and sneered: "When you are in danger, you can see people's hearts. Such a little mess has shrunk like this, if the country is in danger, counting on a minister like you, I think the emperor is hanging very much. ”
"Hehe," Qian Qianyi said with a smile: "When it really comes to that day, I will see the character of the husband." ”
"I hope I won't see it!"
Liu Ru is voice was still speaking, and he had already heard a noise of footsteps, and the family members on the courtyard wall changed color, and said loudly: "Rebels, I'm afraid there are not more than a thousand people!" ”
"How far apart?" Liu Ru was not flustered, first asked, and then asked: "Over there in Maofu, the people sent over said that they came back?" ”
"Mrs. Hui, not yet."
"Okay, come on, change me into men's clothes!" Liu Ru's expression remained unchanged, but her tone was very resolute: "I want to go out." ”
"Huh?" Qian Qianyi was shocked: "Don't do it." When the soldiers are in turmoil, they don't talk about anything. Besides, these Huai'an soldiers were all made by Liu Zeqing...... Who is that? Dare to eat people's hearts alive! ”
"I don't care if he eats people's hearts or not." Liu Ru looked very calm, and said indifferently: "I know that if I don't hide this time, it will be without people's hearts." Now that the rebels are still a little way away, I will be careful. ”
No matter what she said, how could Qian Qianyi be willing to let him out?
The rebels can come out, and they have gone so far, there is no movement in the city at all, obviously, this is a few relatives who are dissatisfied with the scale of the guard office and the imperial city forbidden army, and they are also dissatisfied with the materials and silver taels recently allocated by the household department to the guard office, and the generals with these Huai'an soldiers are also dissatisfied with their power and responsibility being cut and the elite soldiers being taken away, so they joined hands and made such a scene.
This muddy water is as deep as a black pool, and I am afraid that the crown prince has no good way, if you want to deal with the aftermath, at most cut off the heads of a few so-called small soldiers who took the lead in making trouble, and what should be done at the bottom.
Can you slaughter all these 5,000 Huai'an soldiers and ministers? Qian Qianyi was scheming, looked at Liu Rusi, and said in a very serious tone: "Madam, don't force the student to order you to be tied up...... At this time, God can't help it. If you encounter it, it is the blessing of God and Buddha to be able to save your life, and if you really encounter any accidents, it is also fate! ”
