Chapter 1034: Jiangnan Fenghua (Asking for Votes)

Kong Shangxian wanted to cry very much, why was he so confused, thinking that he was relying on Yan Shenggong, so he ran to sue Sun Yan, which was good, but it was calculated by others from the beginning. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

What is the arrest of Sun Yan, it is acting at all!

Sun Yan took it, the people's resentment was boiling, it was originally a matter between him and Sun Yan, but it instantly evolved into a complaint from the people against him, and then he didn't die, let Sun Yan check himself, isn't this forcing himself to die?

Kong Shangxian's intestines were full of remorse, "Tang Ge Lao, you can't be like this, I, I have a grudge against Sun Yan, he will take revenge, no!" ”

Tang Yi sank his face, "Yan Shenggong, what you said is not right, the saint Miao descendant, his behavior is exemplary in the world, his virtue is spread all over the world, real gold is not afraid of fire, I believe that no matter who it is, he will not find out the mistake of Yan Shenggong." Let Sun Yan investigate in order to prove his innocence even more. ”

Tang Yi didn't care about Kong Shangxian, who was like ashes, turned his head to Sun Yan and said: "Lord Sun, you have to be clear that the case of Yan Shenggong is very important, and you must not overdo it and whitewash the peace." Everything must be based on the teachings of Master Confucius, and the teachings of the sages that my generation took as the guideline are different from the Confucian family, which is their ancestral teachings, and must not be violated! Anyone who bullies the people, fishes in the village, occupies land, harms people's lives, bends the law for personal gain, and cheats and deceives...... All kinds of crimes must be strictly investigated to the end, and they will be made public to the world, you remember, you are not disobeying the sages by doing this, on the contrary, you are saving the reputation of Master Confucius, tidying up the family, and letting go of it, and the court, Your Majesty, and the cabinet will support you! ”

This could not be clearer, it is simply a guiding light and pass for handling the Kong family's case, and Sun Yan has it all at once.

"Please rest assured, the lower officials will definitely investigate to the end, come up with a conclusion as soon as possible, and never tolerate adultery!"

Kong Shangxian, you can't run away this time!

Put me in prison, although I was locked up for less than two hours, but I still went to prison, and if you don't want to be locked up for a lifetime, I'll turn my name upside down!

"Yan Shenggong, follow the lower officials!" Sun Yan bared his white teeth and said with a smile.

Kong Shangxian's eyes were dark, his knees were weak, and he collapsed directly to the ground.

……

The case of the Kong family is actually not complicated, Sun Yan has been in Shandong for many years, and he has long investigated the seven, seven, eight, eight Now that there is a holy decree and the full support of the cabinet, what else can be said, the results will be quickly produced.

Just before Longqing left Shandong, the case was clear.

The imperial court rewarded the Confucian family with about 200,000 mu of land over the years, and the Kong family actually owned more than 4 million mu of land, which was the first rich man in Shandong, with land in five prefectures and more than 20 counties. Take Qufu as an example, from top to bottom, except for the Yamen, I am afraid that every inch of land belongs to the Kong family, and everyone works for the Kong family.

In addition, the Kong family also has a huge business network, and more than one-third of the commercial banks in Shandong have shares behind the Kong family.

They supported thousands of thugs to help them, and whenever the people rebelled against the Confucian family, they set up private torture halls, and it was common for them to kill and injure people's lives.

Even the magistrates who did not listen to them would be brutally retaliated.

To put it simply, the Kong family is a local tyrant and a super bully!

All localities have implemented Qingzhang fields, but Shandong is the most backward, and the problem lies with the Confucian family.

"How unreasonable!"

Long Qing was so angry that he slapped the table and slapped his palms red.

"Master Tang, the Kong family's property is afraid that it is tens of millions of taels of silver, and it is really rich and rivals the country. What's hateful is that Kong Shangxian not only didn't know how to stop, but also took advantage of the opportunity of the annual court meeting to bring commercial goods into Beijing for sale, and the freight was to be borne by the imperial court's post station, so did he want to be cheeky? ”

Despite his preparations, Tang Yi was also taken aback by the situation of the Kong family.

Shandong out of the Confucian sage, is a great luck, but also a great misfortune, the descendants of the Confucian family, stretching for dozens of generations, tentacles all over the land of Qilu, how many people were forced by them to ruin their families, wives and widows, it is impossible to verify, all in all, how brilliant the ancestors of this big family, the sins of the descendants are only a lot.

"Your Majesty, as a scholar, the minister is also ashamed of himself, and the Confucian Mansion is like this, which is really despicable."

"Master, what do you mean, what do you want to do with the Kong family?"

"The minister thinks that even if he is cut by a thousand knives, he deserves it, but he cares about the face of the Confucian saint, and temporarily imprisons Kong Shangxian in Fengyang Mansion, and the rest of the Confucian family branches, the court rewards, and the hidden officials, are all recovered, and from then on, the descendants of the Confucian Mansion and the ordinary people, there is no difference, the imperial court sets up a sacrificial official, who is fully responsible for the internal and external affairs of the Confucian Mansion, and the Yan Shenggong lineage is only used as a faΓ§ade, enjoying the preferential treatment of the imperial court, but no longer has any power."

Tang Yi's attack is really dark enough, this plan is more thorough and neat than dispatching the governor of the palace and managing the vassal kings in various places, from then on, Yan Shenggong is just a good-sounding name, a mascot on the table.

It's really relieving, but what should the corporal in the world think? Will it provoke public outrage?

"Master, I remember that when my grandfather was in the past, he wanted to cancel Mengfuzi's deserving of the Temple of Literature and destroy the book "Mencius", but as a result, Shangshu Qian Tang fought desperately, and blood splashed at Noonmen-now that Yan Shenggong is moving, will it be boiling against Yingtian and attacking it in groups?"

Tang Yi was full of confidence, "Your Majesty is too worried, and the minister thinks that he might as well take a look at what the corporal in the world will say." ”

……

The fleet continued southward, passing through Huai'an, passing Yangzhou, entering the Yangtze River, and finally reaching Liujiagang in Suzhou.

Far away, you can see two huge lighthouses, like guards, standing on the pier, with hot air balloons flying in the air, hanging down long slogans with the words "Long live my emperor, long live, long live".

Only the most open atmosphere in the south of the Yangtze River dares to play like this, separated by a river, even if it is Yangzhou, which has always been prosperous, it is not as bold as Suzhou.

Standing at the bow of the boat, Long Qing raised his eyes into the distance, and couldn't help laughing, "Master, Suzhou is really enthusiastic!" ”

Tang Yi was very happy to see Longqing, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the prosperity of the southeast depends on the Son of Heaven Hong'en, since Wuzong, nearly a Jiazi, the people of the southeast have not witnessed the holy face, naturally very much looking forward to it, and it is inevitable that the enthusiasm is too much, please don't blame Your Majesty." ”

"No blame, no blame, I have long wanted to see the prosperity of Suzhou!"

The imperial ship docked, and Yu Youding, the prefect of Suzhou, led the civil and military officials to meet him at the wharf. As the Tanhualang of Shen Shixing's department, Yu Youding also had the opportunity to stay in the Hanlin Academy and take a perfect noble route. However, Tang Yi insisted that officials at the ministry level should at least have worked in the prefect and county, be familiar with the local situation, and be able to control the complex situation.

As for becoming a major minister, you must have worked as a feudal official, and your education is still secondary, and the key is ability and conduct. Therefore, his friends, protΓ©gΓ©s, rarely enjoy happiness in the capital, as long as there is an opportunity, they will be stuffed into the place.

For example, after Wang Xijue pacified the rebellion of King Yi, he was immediately promoted to the envoy of Henan, and Shen Shixing was also promoted to the political envoy of Shaanxi because of his meritorious service in governing the place.

Even the disciples of the sect have entered the ranks of middle-level officials, and Tang Yi's fifteen years of hard work can be described as fruitful, and it is time for a bumper harvest.

Stepping on the land of Suzhou, the familiar nostalgia and familiar accent made Tang Yi extremely ironed, his eyes were red, he left home at a young age, returned to his prime, and ruled the world for fifteen years, and at the moment he went home, he shed tears.

Liujiagang is the Liuhebao of the year, Tang Yi and his father were the most depressed, they lived here, the bamboo building of the year is still there, and the plaque of "Qingfeng Bun Shop" inscribed by Dad is still the same, except for some more vicissitudes, almost nothing has changed.

"Your Majesty has been traveling for a long time, the minister has prepared a palace in Taicang, please rest for a night for a while, and then go to Suzhou City tomorrow." Yu Youding bowed down and said.

"Okay." Long Qing agreed, "I can do whatever I want." ”

The emperor was easy-going and kind, which made the officials in Suzhou breathe a sigh of relief.

After living in the palace, Suzhou has already prepared authentic Huaiyang dishes for Longqing, and there are more than 70 kinds of dim sum alone, which are so exquisite. Long Qing was dumbfounded, obedient, I was afraid that the imperial food in the palace couldn't compare!

"It's over, it's too much!"

Long Qing shook his head again and again, "Governor Yu, I have already made an order, don't be extravagant, although Suzhou is rich, but the people are fat and ointment, and it should not be wasted." ”

After passing through Shandong and seeing the case of the Confucian family, Longqing was indeed different, and the preaching he hated originally became a real feeling.

He set up the Kong family, and when the fleet left the mountain and went southeast, countless people gathered along the way, thousands of people knelt down, the mountain shouted long live, and Longqing only felt that his blood was boiling.

The common people are really the kindest group of people, as long as they do a little good deed, they will always think about you, and the mistakes they have made have been forgiven.

Long Qing regretted a little, if he had gone earlier, maybe in the past five years, he could have done more without wasting his time......

"Back to Your Majesty, these foods are not from the Suzhou government, but from the restaurants and restaurants in Suzhou."

"Oh, you forced them to do it?" Long Qing became stern.

"The ministers don't have the guts, they heard that Your Majesty is coming to Suzhou, and they take the initiative to undertake it and honor Your Majesty." Yu Youding said.

Long Qing shook his head slightly, "I don't believe it, it's not easy for businessmen to do business, it's not profitable, will they do it?" ”

Even the descendants of Sage Kong are greedy for money, so would ordinary businessmen be so noble?

Tang Yi smiled faintly, "Governor Yu, you and Your Majesty are telling the truth, are they ready to make a fortune under the banner of Your Majesty?" ”

Yu Youding's face turned red, and he said in his heart that the master is powerful, "Go back to the old pavilion and undertake the task of entertaining Your Majesty, the food used by Your Majesty can become the main dish of the restaurant in the future, and it can indeed attract diners from all over the world." ”

I see!

It is worthy of being the most commercial city in the Ming Dynasty, and its brains are different from other places, and the idea of making money is hit on the emperor.

Long Qing was not surprised, but laughed, "I didn't expect my face to be so valuable, I want to taste it, whose dish is the best, I will give him a painting." ”

Yu Youding hurriedly saluted and said excitedly: "The merchants of Suzhou on behalf of the ministers thank Your Majesty for your grace. (To be continued.) )
