Checking the Zhao family's property in Changzhou's hometown with great fanfare? Zhao Shenqiao couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and he already understood that the roots of officials, especially Han people, are in their hometowns, whether they are dismissed and resigned, or they return to their hometowns, officials must eventually return to their hometowns, and the income from bribery of ordinary officials is mostly used to buy land and houses in their hometowns.

Zhao Fengzhao served as the prefect of Taiyuan for 14 years, if he was really bribed more than 300,000 taels, he would inevitably transport the silver back to his hometown, it was impossible to stay in Taiyuan, and it was impossible to put it in the capital, after all, the Beijing division knew that the Zhao family was honest and honest, and Zhenwu's move could not only check whether the Zhao family of the 'Third Jinshi' was honest and honest, but also check whether Zhao Fengzhao was framed in one fell swoop.

Thinking of this, Zhao Shenqiao couldn't help but sigh secretly, this master's thoughtfulness and swiftness of action are really unexpected, Zhao Fengzhao can be regarded as saved, he hurriedly kowtowed: "The emperor is wise and wise, the holy candle shines, and the insight is really the blessing of the subjects of the world." ”

Although Zhenwu does not like Zhao Shenqiao to be too strict and old-fashioned, but this person is honest and self-disciplined, upright, clean and self-clean, especially rare in the officialdom where corruption is rampant, in public and private, he is good at preservation, rectify the rule of officials, not only to severely punish corrupt officials and corrupt officials, but also to vigorously advocate integrity, protect integrity, and set an example of integrity, this point, Kangxi did a very good job, he naturally has to vigorously inherit.

Checking the Zhao family's property in Changzhou's hometown, Zhenwu was out of the intention of preservation, groaning slightly, he said: "In order to avoid suspicion, you don't go to Shanxi, go back to Beijing directly, Guangdong, Jiangnan to implement the apportionment into the mu, you are indispensable, the northern provinces are about to vigorously implement the apportionment into the mu, you will summarize the experience of the implementation, all kinds of pros and cons must be listed one by one, every innovation of the imperial court, can not be perfect, must be gradually improved, the disadvantages, you need to implement the officials to summarize." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Shenqiao didn't feel his heart warm. It is indeed a great fortune for the country that Zhenwu can hold this attitude, and he hurriedly bowed down and said, "Weichen obeys the order." ”

Shanxi.

Shanxi has always been a battleground for soldiers, and the terrain is dangerous. Easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is the place where the dynasties fought for hegemony, and it is also the place where the Mongolian nomads must attack the Central Plains. 'The road is exhausted in the terrain of Shanxi.

Since the Ming and Qing dynasties set the capital of Beijing, Shanxi and Hebei were the throat fortresses of the Beijing Division, and the Qing Dynasty stationed heavy troops in Datong Town and Taiyuan Town in Shanxi. There are more than 18,000 green battalions stationed in Datong Town alone, and there are also a lot of them in Taiyuan, although the number of green battalions is not as large as that of Datong, but there are a large number of Manchurian and Mongolian soldiers with blue and blue flags.

Shanxi, Taiyuan City, west side of Longwangmiao Street, Shanxi Governor's Yamen.

After the second hall, the internal office, the signature room. The Imperial History of the Left Capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Governor of Shanxi Su Keji, the Political Envoy Su Zhan, and the Yue Dynasty were envoys. Jin Guozheng, the chief soldier of Taiyuan Town, Shanxi, and several other dignitaries gathered together, several people were solemn, Zhenwu to promote the integration of Manchu and Han, the implementation of Manchu and Han marriage, the news of the princess marrying Confucius has spread to Taiyuan quickly, and everyone is worried.

The Imperial History of the Left Capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate glanced at everyone, and when he saw that several people were silent, he said in a deep voice: "Everyone, there is no need to count on the large-scale Manchu and Han disputes, Zhao Shenqiao must have returned to the capital at this time." Paper can't contain the fire, and there is no luck at the moment, so hurry up and raise silver, first fill up this hole, and the silver for river control will be played again by the emperor to allocate another one. ”

Filling holes? How to fill this hole? Now where to get the silver to fill in? It's really standing and talking without low back pain. As soon as they heard this, several people were full of slander, and asked the emperor to allocate another amount of silver, which was better than singing, and there were often floods after the great drought, and once there was a big flood, this half-pull project would be washed away without a trace.

After glancing at the words, Su Keji said: "Lord Zongxian, if there is a way to fill the shortfall, why should we bother to take advantage of the fire and fight the idea of disaster relief silver." The emperor has repeatedly ordered that corruption and embezzlement of disaster relief money and grain, and eight of them have been killed at once in the case of fraud in the Jingshi warehouse, and countless people have been dismissed. ”…,

Yue Dai followed closely and said: "What Lord Futai said is that the river control project really can't be abandoned halfway, once there is a flood, it will be wasted, and I hope that Lord Xiantai will think twice, and besides, the silver has already been poured out like splashing water, buying grain and stones, starting the construction money, how to fill it back?" ”

"Don't do it." Yu Xu said coldly: "I don't think Benxian knows, which of the foremen at this level is not your cronies?" Benxian has a good intention to come up with a cash-for-work to fill the gap in money and food for you, is it in exchange for your kindness and revenge? ”

The kindness of the fart, a few people scolded hatefully in their hearts, it's not that they want to drum up a great merit to invite the grace of the saints, it's not that you are so happy, you have to spread the stall so big, we will be so passive? Didn't you come up with the idea to impeach Zhao Fengzhao, and confidently guaranteed that you could provoke the dispute between the Manchus and the Hans, and we would fall into the current unstoppable situation?

Originally, Xuan Xuan wanted to use the work for relief project to make political achievements, win the favor of Zhenwu, work for relief, the disaster provinces have, if you want to get out of the position, get Zhenwu appreciation, naturally has to be a great achievement, after he arrived in Taiyuan, found that Taiyuan City often suffers from floods, he wants to completely eradicate the Fen River and several rivers on the east and west sides.

As soon as this cash-for-work plan was proposed, it immediately received the full support of several officials in Shanxi, and the root cause of the flooding in Taiyuan City was not only a great merit, but also a huge project, for them, this was a rare opportunity to make a fortune, and at worst, it could also make up for the shortfall in the money and food at hand.

As soon as the Jingshi Kurangba fraud case broke out, they all realized that the three fires of Zhenwu's ascension to the throne were most likely to start from cleaning up the deficit, and they were all worried about the deficit in their hearts.

However, they ignored the prisoners, and did not expect that Zhao Shenqiao would come to Shanxi to make an unannounced visit, there is a way is a wrong step, a wrong step, in order to gain time, Xuxu and instructed Shanxi Governor Su Keji to impeach Zhao Fengzhao, and use his connections, in an attempt to provoke a large-scale Manchu and Han dispute to confuse the public, divert attention, and achieve the purpose of delaying time, who knew that Zhenwu actually dissolved it lightly, and there was no room for maneuver at this point.

Seeing that there was some coldness, Su Keji, the governor of Shanxi, glanced at a few subordinates before he spoke: "Lord Xiantai is angry, how can we be the people who will take revenge, the current situation, we should be in the same boat, the river control project is indeed supervised by cronies, but because the project is too big, the silver is compact, and the silver earned is on the books. ”

Listening to this, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, he was awarded the Hanlin Academy from the second-class guard, and he talked about the living and living officials, and then accumulated the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, and the imperial history of the left capital of the Shengdu Inspectorate, he has no experience in the local area, and some of the local cats, he is really not a clear door, but for the project, he still knows a lot, after all, he has been a waiter of the Ministry of Works, this project is huge, and the little relief money of the imperial court is indeed not enough, which he knows.

For this reason, he also borrowed more than one million taels of relief money from Shang Shulai of the Criminal Department who was in charge of relief in Shaanxi. The devil believes!

After pondering for a while, he said directly: "Did all the money you forcibly donate to the local squires and merchants go into your pockets?" Can't make up more than three million? ”

Hearing this, Su Zhan, the political envoy, couldn't help but curse secretly, how could more than three million taels be so easily scraped together? Do you have a silver mine in Shanxi? Su Keji glanced at him, but he didn't say a word, he knew that Mingzhu was greedy for a lot of money back then, and this second son's net worth must also be rich, and it was inevitable that he would have a loud tone. …,

Seeing that several people were silent, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, and said: "Shanxi Lao is rich in the world, there is really no way, how about dismantling with the local rich businessmen first?" ”

The method of dismantling with the local rich businessmen, Su Keji has no unexpected reason, they don't borrow less on weekdays, they are afraid that they will stay out of the matter, then they will be killed, he sighed slightly, and he said: "It is true that the local rich businessmen are rich, and they say that three or four million is ten million, and they can be collected within a few days, but the name of Shanxi Lao Xuan is also famous all over the world, and this money is not easy to borrow."

Furthermore, we still owe more or less old accounts on hand, even if we don't want to save face, it is estimated that it will be difficult to borrow money, after all, it is not a small amount of 30,000 or 50,000. ”

As soon as he heard this, he had already guessed the thoughts of several people, and he had already calculated this point, and he sighed lightly at the moment, and said: "This constitution is signed with you, can it be done?" ”

Hearing this, several people were happy in their hearts, and since they were willing to sign the IOU, they were not afraid that he would not try his best to lobby, after all, he had been a waiter in the Ministry of Works, and with his connections and status, he was not worried that the imperial court would not allocate project money.

Su Zhan, the political envoy, immediately stood up and said, "The great righteousness of the Xiantai is really a reinvention for the lower officials and others. ”

Su Keji also said with a smile on his face: "Lord Xiantai is famous all over the world, and there is a gold-lettered signboard of the adult, those old people must be very relieved, not to mention three million, even five hundred is no problem." ”

"Then borrow five million." He immediately said: "This relief is an invitation by the emperor to buy the hearts of the people, the emperor attaches great importance to it, and the imperial court will definitely send a large number of officials to investigate, not only the silver of Anji, the pension silver, and the silver of eliminating harm must be issued in full, but the wages of the work in lieu of relief must also be repaid, and the levy of the errand service should also be repaid, so as not to give people a handle."
