Chapter 281: The Conspiracy of Gao Qiqian (Second Update)

"Say, who are you, and who sent you here?"

Shun Bao lifted the peeing officer up, almost touching the tip of the other's nose with his face on the other.

I said...... I said, don't kill me! ”

The official was about to collapse, looking at Shunbao's expression that was almost about to breathe fire, he had no doubt that if he chirped again, the other party would definitely tear himself to pieces in the first time, he quickly stammered.

"This official is the new general judge of the state government, and he is enshrined...... I was ordered by Gao Qiqian Gao Gonggong to investigate you, and I also urged you to escort all the autumn grain and tax money into Beijing, and these brocade guards were sent by Gao Gonggong...... The purpose of the lower officials is to support the officials. This lord, Ben ...... This official really has no bad intentions! ”

"What the hell do you mean!" Shunbao was almost angry, you were ready to smash the field with the brocade guard, and said that there was no bad intention, how naΓ―ve people can believe your words.

Shun Bao pulled out the long knife on his waist and wanted to slaughter this guy, but his hands were quickly suppressed by a pair of calloused hands, and when he looked back, it turned out to be his old son Yue Laifu.

I saw that Yue Laifu suppressed Shunbao's hand, and shouted in a deep voice to the general judge named Kangnai: "Do you know that you came to Governor Zheng's Mansion this time? ”

Kang Nai shook his head: "Governor Zheng doesn't know, the lower officials came to hide from him." ”

"That's good!" Yue Laifu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said to Shunbao: "This guy can't be killed, anyway, he is also an official of the imperial court, if he kills, he will cause trouble for the young master!" ”

"This ......" Shunbao hesitated, just now this guy not only wants to break into Yuejiazhuang, but also wants to arrest his father, it is said that even if he kills this guy ten times, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in his heart, but his own father is also very reasonable, although everyone knows that the court has been wary of the young master, but as long as these people have not officially turned their faces with the court, they are the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty. After killing those Jinyi guards just now, you can still use misunderstandings to prevaricate, but if this newly appointed general sentence is slaughtered, then his own young master will have to rebel even if he doesn't want to, thinking of this, Shunbao can't help but hesitate.

As if sensing the killing intent in Shunbao's eyes, Kang Nai struggled desperately, tears and snot flowed out together.

"My lord, don't kill me, I'm an official of the court, and the court won't let you go if you kill me!"

A hint of hesitation flashed in Shunbao's eyes, and he finally let go of his hand. Knocked Connell to the ground as if he was still in tatters, "Humph! Killing you stained my hands, since Gao Qiqian asked you to come to the state capital as a general judge, then you should stay in the yamen and don't come to Wulizhai, otherwise next time I let me see you come to Wulizhai, Lao Tzu will cut off your dog's head. Also, you go back and tell SΓΉ Gao Qiqian, my young master said that we will not pay this year's grain tax and tax silver. Let him figure it out for himself! Now you get out of here! ”

After saying that, Shun Bao threw him to the ground like a dead dog.

Kangnai Wolf Bèi got up, and ran away with the brocade guards carrying the corpses of his companions......

The scene that happened at the gate of Yuejiazhuang naturally couldn't hide from the people who were hiding in the distance to watch the excitement, and it took less than half a day. Gao Qiqian sent people to Wulizhai to find trouble with Yueyang, but the news that he was beaten back soon spread in all directions.

"What? The general sentence sent by our family to collect grain was beaten back, and even the Jinyi guards were killed? ”

Less than a day after this incident, Gao Qiqian, who had just arrived in Taiyuan to take office, received the news. Gao Qiqian who heard the news immediately jumped like thunder.

"It's the opposite, it's the opposite, this Yue Yang is so bold. Our family must show the emperor, please ask the emperor to immediately issue a decree to dismiss this great rebel and investigate him! Gao Qiqian's shrill voice resounded in the study.

"Father-in-law, this matter is getting big now, and people outside are spreading it, what should we do?" A little eunuch asked with some concern.

"What are you afraid of!" Gao Qiqian glared at him, "This world is still the emperor's world, no matter how horizontal he is Yueyang, he is just a small general, he really wants to annoy the emperor, as long as the emperor has a holy decree, he can take this person into Beijing, and now he is just a grasshopper after the autumn, and finally jumped a few times." ”

"But that Yue Yang has a soldier in his hand, Qiu Ba, who is a soldier, is the most rude, in case he angers him, this kind of person can do anything!" The little eunuch is still very faithful to persuade his own boss.

"Well, you're right, these Qiu Ba who lead troops make trouble at every turn, and they are the ones who make trouble, mutiny, and the like." Gao Qiqian listened to the words of the little eunuch and felt that it made sense, he was also a person who had served as the supervisor of Liaodong Town, and he knew the virtues of those soldiers, if he really wanted to provoke these people, they would do anything.

"Now that things are in trouble, Yue Yang has already released a rumor, saying that he doesn't plan to pay this year's autumn grain and tax silver. If that's the case, it's going to be a big deal! Speaking of this, Gao Qiqian's eyes showed a hint of panic.

Due to the arrival of Yueyang, history has changed a lot. Today's Shanxi North Road has become another important tax place in the Ming Dynasty in addition to Jiangnan, and the annual payment of nearly one million quintals of grain and hundreds of thousands of taels of silver on the North Road has accounted for two percent of the Ming Dynasty's taxes. Don't look at this number jΓΉ doesn't seem to be too much, but for a country, two percent is already a large proportion, and the reason why Chongzhen sent Gao Qiqian and Chen Xinjia is to control this tax in his own hands.

As the emperor's slave, Gao Qiqian is the most aware of this, if he messes up this matter, let alone continue to be favored, I am afraid that the direct palace supervisor in the palace is the place where he will die. Gao Qiqian doesn't want to spend the rest of his life dealing with toilet feces and urine all day long, so he has to do it anyway.

Seeing Gao Qiqian's somewhat embarrassed expression, the little eunuch didn't dare to come up with an idea, but just stood aside with his head down and was silent. After a while

Gao Qiqian thought for a while, and finally said: "In this way, our family will write a letter immediately, you immediately send someone to Datong with a fast horse, and hand over the letter to Chen Xinjia, you sue him, let him meet with our family in Hunyuan Prefecture on September 23, this time we will bring many officials and generals from Shanxi to Hunyuan Prefecture together, our family will see if this Yueyang dares to disobey Shangguan's order!" If he dares to disobey Shangguan's order, our family and Chen Xinjia can take him down in front of everyone, and then forgive him and have nothing to say! Hahaha......" With Gao Qiqian's laughter, his sharp voice fluttered in the study.

Just when Gao Qiqian was plotting how to deal with Yueyang, in the governor's yamen, which was less than two miles away from the eunuch's mansion, Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, was also discussing the latest situation with Master Tang in his study.

Xu Dingchen sat behind the desk in the study, looked at the master on the side and said: "Xueying, the imperial court is going to make a big move recently, the emperor has repeatedly sent Gao Qiqian and Chen Xinjia to Shanxi, it is obvious that he is going to attack Zhenghong, and now Zhenghong is in trouble!" ”

After pondering for a moment, Master Tang also shook his head and sighed: "Dong Weng, the emperor's move is too impatient, although Yue Yang acted a little Meng Lang, but he has made a great contribution to the imperial court. Not to mention that Yue Yang has made great achievements for my Ming Dynasty over the years, let's just say that the taxes and grain he handed over to the imperial court in the past two years accounted for 20% of the imperial court's taxes, but the emperor actually sent Gao Qiqian and Chen Xinjia to try to seize the things of the courtiers, how could this be done by Ming Jun? ”

Xu Dingchen shook his head and said: "The emperor is too anxious, although the current court is quite embarrassed in terms of money, but with this great victory, presumably Dongnu will also be honest for a while, the emperor can free up his hands to talk about the Liukou to clean up first, and then deal with Dongnu, but he wants to eat a fat man in one go, and he actually intends to attack the North Road." Zhenghong, the old man still knows a lot, is this person a person who is waiting to be caught? I wonder if a mutiny is just around the corner! ”

Master Tang nodded in agreement, speaking of which, Xu Dingchen's evaluation of Yue Yang was still very pertinent. They haven't known Yue Yang for a day or two, they have known him as early as when Yue Yang was a little Xiucai, and they also watched Yue Yang step by step to get to today's position, originally Xu Dingchen was covering Yue Yang, and to this day, he has also received a rich report. Now Yue Yang is also silently supporting Xu Dingchen in the back, otherwise Xu Dingchen would not have sat in the position of governor for five or six years, and no one could shake his position lightly.

The two were discussing when there was a sudden knock on the door, and Master Tang walked out to open the door to see that a servant handed him a letter of comfort.

Master Tang took comfort, waved his hand to let the servant out, glanced at the envelope, and handed the envelope to Xu Dingchen with a smile: "Dong Weng, it is a letter sent by Governor Zheng from Yingzhou Mansion. ”

Xu Dingchen took the envelope, opened it, his face couldn't help but change, and he lost his voice: "This is too bold, he actually sent the new Ying Prefecture General Judge to take Jinyiwei to inspect the granary and silver treasury of Yuejiazhuang without informing the prefect. ”

"What? Is there such a thing? Master Tang was also startled.

From ancient times to the present, the granary and silver warehouse are the most important place for both the court and individuals, and breaking into someone's granary without a holy decree will cause a deep enmity with others.

Master Tang hurriedly asked, "Dong Weng, what is the result?" ”

"What else?" Xu Dingchen smiled bitterly: "It was not surprising to take it over at all, the general sentence was taught a hard lesson by Yueyang's housekeeper and the garrison of Yingzhou Mansion, and even Jinyi Guard was killed a few times, and now the matter is big." ”

Just as the two were shocked by the news, the voice of Xu Dingchen's housekeeper came from the door.

"Master, Gonggong Gao sent someone to inform him that he is going to invite you and officials and generals above the fourth grade at all levels in Taiyuan and Datong to go to Hunyuan Prefecture to inspect the autumn harvest in Hunyuan Prefecture together!"

"What?"

Xu Dingchen and Master Tang were stunned for a moment...... (To be continued......)
