213. The secret letter of the Donglin Party

Zhu Yuanzhang used the shortest sentence to analyze Yang Hong, the time that 100,000 taels of Fuyin can support.

Yang Hong still had a mocking look on his face at first, but when he heard it, sweat had already begun to drip down his sideburns. He had never thought about the problem from the perspective of the poor before, but after Zhu Yuanzhang analyzed it, he suddenly realized that the 100,000 strokes of silver in the imperial court fell on hundreds of thousands of rogues, how much could each person share? How many days can you manage? Isn't that obvious? Why haven't you thought about it in that direction before?

Therefore, the idea of the official position is harmful, and the officials do not understand the suffering of the people, thinking that giving the poor a little leftover food can make them obedient, and they have never thought that this little leftover food can be managed today at most, but not tomorrow.

"If you want the people not to rebel, you can't just give out a single shot of 100,000 silver." Zhu Yuanzhang said calmly: "Only by letting the people of the world have food, clothing, and housing to live in can the world be peaceful." ”

Yang Hong's face first turned blue, and after a while, it turned white again, and when it came to this, if he didn't understand it, then it wasn't a talent that Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to include in the cottage, obviously, he was much smarter than the rigid nerd who practiced state affairs, and counted his fingers: "That's why you deliberately delayed time with us, putting on a picture of wanting to accept appeasement, but you were entangled in trivial matters, fooling the stupid bird who practiced state affairs, and time was delayed all the time, and Du Wenhuan was stationed in Baishui City, I had to wait all the time, missing the best time to attack...... Trimester...... It's almost up, and there's less than twenty days left, you mean...... Twenty days later, the rogues who have been appeased will come out to make trouble again? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled: "You and Lian Guoshi have been squatting with me, and you can only rely on the letters sent to you by Bai Shui to understand the situation outside, so the news is not good." If I don't expect, there are already small rebels fighting against the water, but you don't know. Twenty days later, there will be a large number of rebels who will also start to rebel, such as the East Road Dakou God Yikui who was appeased, as long as he rebels...... Hey! ”

Yang Hong Khan.

"This chaos in Shaanxi is different from the last time...... Zhu Yuanzhang said meaningfully: "Chongzhen's poor poor boy tightened his belt and took out 100,000 taels of internal money, which shows how much he attaches importance to this appeasement." But this appeasement will definitely end in failure, and once the chaos starts, the child will be furious, and I don't know how many heads will fall to the ground......"

"The kid?" Yang Hong swallowed his saliva, the person who dared to call the emperor a child was really unheard of. He didn't know that Zhu Yuanzhang didn't use titles such as "that bastard, that **, that idiot", but used "that child", just because Chongzhen is a descendant of Zhu Yuanzhang, and as an elder, he always doesn't use too ugly words to call his own children.

Zhu Yuanzhang continued: "All the officials who participated in this appeasement, whether you are a civil official or a military attachΓ©, whether you are the main suppressor or the main fussy, if you don't have a solid backer on it, you will definitely not be able to avoid the knife in the neck." Well...... In fact, Chongzhen doesn't need to do it, when he doesn't know it, there are many big officials who want to do it first, and it has been an old drama since ancient times to give up their pawns to protect the car...... And you, Yang Hong, a small thousand households, are undoubtedly going to be abandoned, do you believe it or not? ”

Yang Hong's sweat was raining, and his legs began to flash.

"How? Do you want to stay here and fall into the grass? Zhu Yuanzhang chuckled: "You are a thousand households in the imperial court, and I can also give you a thousand people to lead here...... And...... With your political IQ, you can't fight other officials, and Qianhu is the best, but in my case, the future is not limited. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's lobbying can not be described as powerless, first coercion, then inducement, changed to any person with normal intelligence, at this time, I am afraid that they will all kneel on the ground, but Yang Hong is really a little strange, Zhu Yuanzhang said this, his feet flashed and he was almost unstable, but his head still did not lower......

"I ...... I can't stay...... I...... I'm going back! Yang Hong stammered out such a sentence from the corner of his mouth.

"Oh?" Zhu Yuanzhang was quite surprised, is this still not down? He looked at Yang Hong with interest and asked, "What?" Is there an old father and mother at home who can't let go? ”

"My parents died young!" Yang Hong said in a deep voice.

"That's why I can't let go of my wife."

"The fat woman in my family quarrels with me all day long, annoying people, if anyone helps me kill her, I will call him brother ......" Yang Hong wiped his sweat violently: "I just can't fully believe your words, what kind of sacrifice to protect the car, bluffing, right?" How can officialdom be as terrible as you say...... I'm going to go back and be my Qianhu, don't be a thief with you! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Yang Hong's eyes, catching every subtle expression of him, and after a long while, he waved his hand and said, "I see...... Well, you go back...... Mark my words...... I'll leave you a place for a thousand households......"

Yang Hong turned around to leave, suddenly paused, turned around, hugged Zhu Yuanzhang, shook his fist, and then turned around again, took a big stride, and walked out of the grove, the soldiers outside were still waiting for him, Yang Hong didn't speak, beckoned to the soldiers, and ran towards the way down the mountain.

Walking to the bottom of the mountain, Lian Guoshi was really waiting here, and when he saw Yang Hong coming down, this stubborn civil official actually came to Yang Hong with a ninety-degree long bow: "Alas, General Yang, I was offended by this official before, and now I know that what you said is good words, I regret that I shouldn't have listened to you at the beginning, and now the thieves have dragged us for dozens of days, I don't know what kind of trick it is, this official is anxious, let's hurry back to Baishui." ”

Yang Hong's mouth opened slightly, wanting to tell the reason for Zhu Yuanzhang's delay, but after all, there was no exit, just a long sigh.

The two shook hands, and then hurried towards Baishui.

When he returned to Baishui City, it was five days later, Yang Hong belonged to the military attache system, so he went straight to Du Wenhuan to report the matter of entering the mountain, and it took him more than an hour to report what he saw and heard about entering the mountain this time, but he hid the part where Zhu Yuanzhang lobbied him.

After finishing speaking, he said to Du Wenhuan: "Lord Commander, the young general has been in the mountain these days, I don't know what the situation is outside the mountain?" ”

Du Wenhuan snorted coldly: "You have been in the mountains for a while, but nothing major has happened, but there are some troublesome little things, which caused the governor to come with letters several times, urging me to clean up the Huanglong cottage as soon as possible and go back quickly." ”

"Huh? What trifle? Yang Hong knew that it was very rude to ask Shangguan like this, but he was anxious to know the situation outside the mountain, so even if it was rude, he had to ask.

There are many rough generals in the army, and it is common for them to offend Shangguan without knowing the etiquette, Du Wenhuan didn't blame him, and snorted coldly: "There are a few small rogues with less than 1,000 people, I don't know what kind of fame I have, I obviously received the money and was appeased by the imperial court, and a few days ago I got up to make trouble again, and the governor asked me to quickly clean up the Huanglong cottage, so as to suppress these small gangs." ”

When Yang Hong heard this, he felt a sigh in his heart.

Du Wenhuan smiled and said: "Don't worry about those little things, small stream of rogues, don't worry about it!" Yang Hong, you did a good job this time. I heard what you just said, you have repeatedly advised you not to waste your lips on practicing state affairs, and you need to prevent Zhu Ba from delaying time, but you didn't listen to you about practicing state affairs, and insisted on appeasing, hahaha, but Zhu Ba was not appeased in the end, and it still has to be done by our military people, and the nerds are embarrassed, hahaha! You go back to Xi'an first, prepare the impeachment and practice of state affairs, and when I exterminate Zhu Ba, our main battle faction will have full credit, and then take the opportunity to make great contributions to take out your recital, give the main Fu faction a fatal blow, and ensure that they don't eat and go around. ”

Yang Hong silently shook his head, turned around and walked out of the barracks. In fact, he has a lot to say, for example, Zhu Ba is very strong, and he can't be taken lightly; The chaos is coming, there is not much time, it is best not to waste troops in Huanglong Cottage, and take it back to deal with other rogues; All such opinions filled his mind, but he didn't know what kind of ghost sent him, he didn't say a word, after leaving Du Wenhuan's military camp, he found a fast horse in the army, turned over on the horse, patted the horse, and galloped in the direction of Xi'an.

At the same time that Yang Hong was looking for Du Wenhuan to report, Lian Guoshi was also reporting to Yushi Wu Fu about this entry into the mountain. Although he was a civil official and spoke more eloquently than Yang Hong, it took more than half an hour to report what he had seen and heard in the mountains.

After hearing this, Wu Fu's face was gloomy: "Are you saying that Zhu Ba is deliberately delaying time?" ”

"That's right!" Lian Guoshi sighed: "It's a pity that the qualifications of the lower officials are dull, and after thinking about it for a long time, I didn't think of the reason why Zhu Ba delayed time." ”

Wu Fu's palm tapped lightly on the bookcase a few times, and sighed: "No wonder you can't guess, because you are in the mountains, there is no news...... Let me tell you, Zhu Ba's reason for delaying time will be understood after you hear the news......"

He paused before he said, "Your Excellency the Governor sent a letter a few days ago...... A few of the gangsters who had been appeased more than two months ago rose up again a few days ago. ”

"What?" Lian Guoshi was shocked: "They took the appeasement silver from the imperial court, and they still want to rise up and make trouble?" How can you go back on your word like this, it's simply unreasonable......" Speaking of this, he was stunned about state affairs, and finally suddenly realized: "My lord, you mean it...... Zhu Ba delayed the time in order to wait for the outbursts of rogues in various places again? This...... This...... Why, exactly? ”

Wu Fu sighed again: "I have a letter here, written by Li Jizhen in Langzhong, this letter is very important, if it is sent to the emperor for a look, I am afraid that it will implicate our Donglin Party itself, so he has not sent it to the emperor after it has been prepared, and it has been sent to Shaanxi * West first, and it will be circulated to our Donglin Party people, you can take a look......

When I heard that this was a recital circulated within the Donglin Party, I was shocked, what kind of recital had to be seen by my own people before I showed it to the emperor? If it weren't very significant, it wouldn't be like this.

He picked up the piece and looked at it: "...... The minister brought 100,000 gold, one gold for one person, and 100,000 people could live, and seven dollars for rice could live for 50 ears. The emperor should play back to the ministers, and the first 100,000 gold fruits are enough? If not, it should be the morning Pei anointing, although it is not a pity to be inside...... The thieves are extremely poor and hungry, and have nowhere to live, and when the soldiers arrive, they surrender, and when the soldiers go, they plunder as before, and this inevitable trend is ......"

(Note: The first half is excerpted from the original text of Li Xuzhen's cantata, and the second half of the ellipsis is taken from the original text of Yang He's cantata.) This book puts it all together, just for the sake of the smooth story, please don't take it seriously. It means that 100,000 taels is not enough, so please ask the emperor to take some more money. οΌ‰

After watching the state affairs very quickly, he looked up to the sky and shouted: "Oops...... The meaning of Li Lang is ...... 100,000 taels of silver is not enough? The thieves must rebel again? ”

Wu Fu sighed: "Exactly...... Now do you understand? Why did Zhu Ba stall for time? ”

Lian Guoshi sat down on the ground with a pop: "Xiaguan...... Know...... This Zhu Ba...... It's so powerful, just a bandit, how could he think of this before us......"
