Chapter 310: Determined to Eliminate Adultery
Zhu Yunwen's boasting is obviously detached from reality, Xiao Fan may regard money as dung, but the premise is that money is someone else's money, if it is really his own, not a penny is missing.
There is no surplus food in the Guogong family, and Xiao Fan is still 108,000 miles away from the realm of "righteous man".
200,000 is reduced to 100,000, Xiao Fan doesn't mind, he knows, even if it is only 100,000 taels, it is enough for Ji Gang to drink a pot, ten taels of silver can feed a large family in the first few years, and 100,000 taels is also an astronomical amount, see how Ji Gang makes money, anyway, the infamous Ji Gang bears it, and Xiao Fan gets the benefits, why not?
Zhu Yunwen naturally didn't know that Xiao Fan had so many twists and turns in his heart, as soon as the golden mouth of the Son of Heaven opened, Xiao Fan lost 100,000 without blinking, which was too much to give him face, so Zhu Yunwen was very happy, and as soon as the Son of Heaven was happy, the reward was naturally indispensable.
"Xiao Shi reads righteousness and squanders money, I can't let you suffer, so let's do it, you have no children under your knees now, if your wives give birth to sons in the future, no matter how many they give birth to, I will seal them, if you give birth to a daughter, I will also make her the county lord, my eldest son Wen Kui is three years old this year, after the beginning of spring, I plan to make him the prince, let's marry a family of children and daughters, if you have a daughter in the future, I will make her the crown princess, how about it?"
Xiao Fan was stunned when he heard this.
This is really an unexpected surprise, according to the rules, although Xiao Fan's future hereditary title of the Duke of the Kingdom will be replaced, but it can only be inherited by the eldest son, and the other sons will not have such a good life, but now Zhu Yunwen has opened this golden mouth, which is equivalent to sending a bright future to the other sons of the Xiao family who are not qualified to inherit the title, and every descendant of the Xiao family can be crowned an official as soon as they are born.
As for the daughter being crowned the crown princess...... "Your Majesty, is your eldest son handsome?" Xiao Fan asked cautiously.
Zhu Yunwen already knew the meaning of "handsome", so he snorted angrily: "Much more handsome than you!" ”
Xiao Fan breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, the future daughter of the minister will definitely be beautiful and fragrant, how can a beautiful woman match an ugly man?" Since His Majesty's eldest son is not ugly, this family member agreed! ”
Zhu Yunwen is so angry, your daughter hasn't been seen yet, but you're starting to pick and choose, what kind of person!
The monarch chatted for a while, and Zhu Yunwen suddenly remembered something.
"Zhou Xian, the right attendant of the ministry, said goodbye to the old man a year ago, and the position of the servant was vacant, Ji Gang recommended a person to me this morning, named Huang Yan, who is Zhangde supervising the imperial history, the official department is the head of the six departments, and the position of the servant is very important, I am a little uncertain, what does Xiao Shiyu think of this person?"
When Xiao Fan heard this, he was alarmed.
He didn't know this Huang Yan and had no impression of him, but he heard the key word of these words,—— "Ji Gang".
Huang Yan was recommended by Ji Gang, in other words, Ji Gang still did not stop cultivating party henchmen, obviously, this Huang Yan has been in collusion with him, the Ministry of Officials is the most important department of the six departments, it controls the assessment, appointment and dismissal of officials in the world, the officials of the Ministry of Officials have always been called "heavenly officials", the power is so great, it is conceivable that Ji Gang actually wants to insert his cronies into the Ministry of Officials, this abacus is exquisite...... Recently, Xiao Fan has dealt a series of blows to Ji Gang, originally thought that Ji Gang would somewhat restrain his ambitions, be his deputy commander in a down-to-earth manner, and do less evil ways, but I didn't expect that Xiao Fan still underestimated Ji Gang's ambitions, he seized every opportunity to climb up crazily, and realized his ambitions step by step in a planned way, if such a person really took power, what would become of the court?
Some people are born with a scourge that can only beat him to death with a stick, and leaving him in one breath can allow him to make a sequel to the bad guys who come back from the dead and wreak havoc everywhere, Ji Gang is this kind of person.
At this moment, Xiao Fan finally made up his mind that he must kill Ji Gang!
This is no longer a matter of the court and the country, Xiao Fan and Ji Gang have formed such a big grudge in the past two years, according to Ji Gang's surname that must be repaid, if he is allowed to take the throne and become the climate, I don't know how much trouble or even danger it will bring to him in the future, such a person can't be kept!
As for the moment, it is necessary to stir up the matter of Huang Yan being the servant of the ministry, it is very simple, what Ji Gang did was what he wanted to destroy.
After making up his mind, Xiao Fan decided to talk nonsense, anyway, Zhu Yunwen believed in him so much, and he wouldn't go to verify it, even if it was verified, it didn't matter, Grandpa Guo was a nobleman, and it was not good to remember his surname, and it was normal for Zhang Guan and Li Dai to be separated.
Xiao Fan wrinkled his brows and thought for a while, then hesitated: "Huang Yan, this person, the minister seems to have heard of ......."
"What's this person's last name?"
Xiao Fan sighed and said, "What is the surname, the minister doesn't dare to say anything, but the minister has heard a few things......"
"What's the matter?"
Xiao Fan smiled, the standard villain into the slanderous face, said with a smile: "I heard that Huang Yan is a private school into the school, and later the private school he studied in was closed down due to the death of Mr., and later entered Xiucai, once entered the staff of a county magistrate, and then the magistrate was beheaded because of greed for ink, and then later, he entered the Tan Wangfu as a staff, Hongwu twenty-three years, Tan Wang died because of the Hu Dang case [***], and later, he was appointed to supervise the imperial history of Zhangde Mansion, the first year of Jianwen, Yan rebelled, and Zhangde Mansion fell...... Your Majesty, he is now going to enter the court department, this ......"
Zhu Yunwen's eyes were glazed, he was silent for a long time, and muttered, "This guy is simply a broom star......"
"It's not just a broom star, it's just a lonely star, but we can't be too superstitious about this, or ...... Your Majesty give it a try? Maybe it's not that evil......" Xiao Fan smiled evilly.
Zhu Yunwen shivered and said resolutely: "No! I don't dare to risk my ancestors' country, that Huangyan ...... Well, isn't there a Tusi rebellion in Shudi? sent him to Shu to be a pacification envoy, even if he can't be appeased, it's good to harm those toasts...... That's it! ”
"Your Majesty...... Shengming! ”
Because of Xiao Fan's words, Huang Yan was listed as a refusal to contact with today's son, and his career was bitter and bumpy throughout his life, until he died of old age.
Standing in line is an important science!
- There is another important science, that is...... Don't offend the villain!
The inner hall of the Kitsunafu house.
Bang dang!
The best blue porcelain bowl of the official kiln was smashed into pieces by Ji Gang, and the subordinates were so frightened that they fell to their knees, and they didn't dare to come out.
Yu Shi Jingqing sat on the left side, his face a little pale.
Jing Qing, Ji Gang's hardcore henchman, the former right capital Yu Shi Tyrant Zhao was dismissed by Ji Gang for a reason, Jing Qing hugged Ji Gang's thigh and successfully ascended to the position, and became Ji Gang's helper in controlling the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Jing Qing now looked at Ji Gang's hideous face and felt a little scared.
He always knew that this person was very cruel, maybe Ji Gang was fed up with poverty back then, and once he got his will, he couldn't tolerate any setbacks, he took the position of power very seriously, even more than his surname, he now lives completely only for the halo on his head, once he loses it, he is worthless, so he can't lose that halo.
And the British Gong Xiao Fan was like a dark cloud pressing on Ji Gang's head, gradually covering up the originally dazzling aura.
Some people are born enemies and never die, such as Xiao Fan and Ji Gang.
"One hundred thousand taels? 100,000 taels! Ji Gang's eyes were red, and his throat let out a low roar like a beast: "Where did I get 100,000 taels?" The surname Xiao is too deceitful! ”
Although Jing Qing was scared in his heart, he still had to say softly: "The Son of Heaven helped the adults intercede, and Xiao Fan reduced your ...... by half"
Ji Gang's eyes glowed red, he glared at Jing Qing, and said angrily: "What if it's reduced by half?" Is this grace? Is this charity? Obviously, Xiao Fan deliberately blackmailed, but now it seems that I Ji owes him a great favor, 100,000 taels! The surname Xiao is going to kill me! ”
Jing Qing's hands and feet were cold by Ji Gang's eyes, and he hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to squeak.
Ji Gang paused, looked up to the sky and said sadly: "...... Where is the justice of heaven in this world! ”
Jingqing: "............"
You Ji Gang framed so many ministers, killed so many people, and copied so many family properties, why didn't you hear you say this at that time? Now that I'm being bullied, I think of heaven and justice...... Do you think God is your godfather?
Jing Qing lowered his head, but a very absurd feeling floated in his heart, and at the same time, he felt a little sad for himself, with such a master, the future is worrying...... "My lord, Xiao Fan has done a lot of injustice, and God has accepted him, if you don't want to offend Xiao Fan now, you still have to hurry up and raise 100,000 taels of silver, otherwise...... No one can figure out the pulse of the surname Xiao, and the devil knows what he will do next! ”
Ji Gang was full of excitement, regained his senses, gritted his teeth and said, "One hundred thousand taels...... Where did I get so much silver? ”
Jing Qing thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, my lord, the lower officials have a way to raise money......
Ji Gang's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "What method?" Say it! ”
"My lord, last year Xiao Fan put down the Yan rebellion, and everyone in the Ming Dynasty was in danger, and they all asked themselves to cut the feudal domain, and entered Beijing to retire...... As the saying goes, a phoenix with wings is not as good as a chicken, and the Son of Heaven is very protective of the vassal kings, and the vassal kings will surely tremble in Beijing, so if the adults go to visit them one by one......"
When Jing Qing said this, he smiled slightly, and the conversation stopped.
Ji Gang's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood the unfinished meaning of his words.
Jing Qing continued: "In addition, there are also the civil and military officials of the official departments of various governments in the beginning of the spring to report on their work in Beijing, and the palace maid draft that will start this year,...... Adults are in a high position, and it is actually very simple to want silver, so why bother with this yellow and white thing? ”
Ji Gang thought for a while, felt that these methods were quite feasible, his heart was relieved, and he immediately laughed.
"I have Lord Jing, the favor of heaven!"
Xiao Fan slowly paced out of the palace, his heart a little heavy.
In the Wenhua Hall just now, Xiao Fan opened his mouth several times, wanting to mention the matter of moving the capital to Zhu Yunwen, but when the words came to his lips, seeing Zhu Yunwen's happy appearance, he had to endure it.
- It's rare to be so happy during the New Year, don't block him for the time being.
Is it necessary to move the capital?
It's necessary!
In the history of the previous life, Zhu Di usurped the throne, the reason why he decided to move the capital is because he got the title is not right, he feels uncomfortable in the Nanjing Imperial Palace, and his heart is empty, and the second is because although Jiangnan is prosperous, it is easier to breed the twilight of the court and the atmosphere of luxury and pleasure, such a country will not last long, since ancient times it is not a unified dynasty, and the capital of Jiangnan is rarely more than a hundred years, it is because the peaceful and prosperous scene in Jiangnan fascinates the eyes of those in power, and a leaf obstructs the eyes, and does not see Mount Tai, Thinking that the world is really peaceful, so sit back and relax, content to enjoy, regardless of the fierce gaze of the invaders outside, and the dire situation of the people of the world, over time, the court and the outside world are seriously out of touch, the government deceives the upper and lower, the Son of Heaven is poor and extravagant, the officials are tyrannical, and foreign enemies take the opportunity to invade the border...... How can such a country be kept?
Our ancestors had a good saying, "Born in sorrow, die in peace."
The current Jianwen court has eliminated the threat of the vassal king, and the court is peaceful, worry-free inside, no trouble outside, up to the Son of Heaven, down to the courtiers, everyone is too happy, this is not a good thing!
It is impossible for the enemy to be wiped out, even if Xiao Fan exterminated the Mongols, the Jurchens, and the Japanese with all his might, what would happen in the future? Who can guarantee that the Ming Dynasty will have no enemies and be invincible in the world in the future? A hundred years later, the era of great exploration in Europe kicked off, and the science and technology of Western countries are also changing with each passing day. The history of the previous life cannot be repeated, if the Western powers still bombarded the country with cannons hundreds of years later, Xiao Fan, a traverser, would probably be so angry that he lifted the lid of the coffin under Jiuquan...... What to do?
They must be grieved! Moving the capital is the best choice, and it is best to choose a place close to the border of the Ming Dynasty, so that the entire imperial court can accept the baptism of war at any time.
If there are one or two more catfish in the school, why is the vitality of the whole group much higher?
- because of sorrow!
Xiao Fan is this catfish, hateful, but must exist.
The great man of chivalry, regardless of fame and saving the world, this wicked man, Xiao Fan should be decided!
After Shangyuan, Zhu Yunwen resumed the court meeting, and Jingshi had a full and carefree year, and it became lively again.
The most lively is always the court, a turbid place of right and wrong.
At the beginning of February, the vassal kings from all over the country entered Beijing one after another, and the above table asked to cut the feudal domain, and the words were very earnest, especially the Jin King Zhu Jixi was the most intense, it can almost be said that he was splashing and rolling all over the ground, and he did not leave in Beijing, and he had to stay in the capital to retire, and he refused to return to the Taiyuan fief when he died, and he did not want to take charge of the military power in Shanxi.
Zhu Yunwen was overjoyed, and after the three resignations of the hypothetical three, he agreed to Zhu Jixi's request, in order to commend Comrade Zhu Jixi for taking into account the overall situation and being loyal to the Son of Heaven, Zhu Yunwen specially found a piece of feng shui treasure land for the King of Jin in Beijing, and the household department allocated silver, and the Ministry of Industry contributed to build a gorgeous and luxurious palace for Zhu Jixi.
The meaning of this move was as obvious as lice on the bald man's head, and the kings suddenly became more and more sure of the Son of Heaven's mind in their eyes, so they rushed to the table as if grabbing the title, asking the court to cut the domain.
At the same time, the deputy commander of Jinyiwei Ji Gang was not idle, in order to repay the inexplicable huge debt owed to the British prince Xiao Fan, Ji Gang led his henchmen to start extortion and robbery all over the world, the vassal king who entered Beijing, the magistrate who reported on his work, etc., were all blackmailed by him without exception, just like the city management caught a small vendor and fined him. In the end, it didn't work out.
In the second year of the Ming Dynasty, the commotion began.
