Yan Hong thought to himself, if you are tried, then my Yan family's arrogance will be bad first. There is also a support in the mouth: "Old man, you are Shengming." It's just that these dog officials are up and down in Shandong, covering the sky with one hand, bullying the holy monarch and suppressing the crowd. Not only do they have a large number of henchmen, but there are also some people who are not very bad in nature, and they are also lured or coerced by them, and their hands and feet are not clean. Among them, there are not only provincial officials, but also rich businessmen, and even peddlers, miners, and peasants, all of whom may be caught in the snare of these people. It is true that there are many and few crimes committed by these accomplices, but if they are really punished one by one, one is afraid that people's hearts will be shaken, the second is also bad for the virtue of the heavenly family, and the third is too much implication, and it will also have a bad face for the court. The civil officials in the court, who were born partially, only knew that the Tao was strictly pursued, but they did not understand the truth of the compassion and virtue of the Holy Son of Heaven. If they drive them all out, I'm afraid something else will happen. Now, God has set fire to these first offenders, and those accomplices who were originally worried about being involved are naturally relieved. The so-called thunder means, the heart of the Bodhisattva, the Jinan War, the Son of Lai Shengtian, the Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers are brave and invincible, and many villains have been annihilated, and the remnants are deterred. Now, no matter how powerful they are, and they don't obey coercion, then as long as these people have a way to live, they will not easily choose the dead end of rebellion. That's why the kid said that this fire came well. ”

Huang Jin snorted coldly: "Yes, this fire really came well, most of the people who burned to death were Yan Ge Lao's protégés, it was really a fire with a heart." ”

Yan Hongzhi said, this matter can't be avoided, and blindly covering it up is looking for his own death. So he sighed, "Yes." That Liu Cai is my grandfather's righteous son, and when it comes to personal relationships, he actually treats me well. It's just that this time it's for the sake of the saints. He committed this great sin. Shall I be my uncle because he is my world? Bending the law for favoritism? Therefore, Liu Cai had to be taken down. Don't hide it from the old man, although my grandfather was also sad that his son died, but when he heard about these crimes he had done, he was also trembling with anger, and he hated that he was not wise enough to let this immoral person reach the high position of governor. His remarks pointed out the relationship between Liu Cai and Yan Fu, and every sentence was self-blame, but in fact, he was still showing his righteous deeds to kill his relatives. Instead, he brought the fire to the past.

Jiajing saw that Yan Hong was so sincere, and immediately said: "Huang Ban, you can't say that, isn't it Xu Jie's protégés Fang Yongxian and Li Shouzhen who were burned to death." Speaking of those sour people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, they are angry when they think about it, how they talk about themselves on weekdays, but as a result, in Shandong, the previous inspectors have all become blind. It is clear that they are colluding and embarrassed. If it weren't for Yan Hong's good work, I don't know how big a mess would have been in the Dao. The thing about the fire. Even so, from this day on, no one is allowed to mention it again. Yan Hong's supervision was ineffective, and he was punished for one year. ”

In fact, Emperor Jiajing is such a smart person, how can he not see that this Yan Hong is cutting off the tail for the family and eradicating the disaster, and he can't get rid of this fire. But what's the big deal? Liu Cai committed this heinous sin, it was not Yan Song who had a brain illness and asked him to do it. Now that Jiajing Ye doesn't want to kill Yan Song, then these people can't open their mouths, but it's easier to deal with it. If they really recruited Yan Song, how to deal with it when the time comes, it will become a problem.

Besides, there are too many people involved in this vote, and the people of Xu Jie, the second assistant of the cabinet, are also among them, as well as Gao Yanzong, who is said to be a good friend of Lu Bing. Jiajing also knows that Lu Dao's own milk brother has never been very clean in terms of money, who knows how much Lu Dao Gao Yanzong's benefits Lu Bing took? Just said that it was for Lu Bing, and there was no need to get to the bottom of it.

Therefore, he made a final decision and put an end to the murder of the convicted official. Huang Jin hated the root of his teeth on the side, and almost wanted to strangle Yan Hong to death directly. Judging from the information he received from Dongchang, Liu Cai's death was by no means as simple as Yan Hong said, but now that Dongchang has been comprehensively suppressed by Jinyiwei, he is understaffed, and a lot of information is incomplete, and there is a lack of evidence of a fatal blow.

And listening to the emperor's words, such a major event actually understated the past. Huang Jin only felt sad for a while. The dignified governor of a province, whose death is unknown, has been revealed so lightly. Is this Ming Dynasty inheritance of nearly 200 years really coming to an end?

Then Jiajing said: "Then Wang Xuan is also in Jinan, what escort into Beijing, if there is a mistake on the way, they will have to fight each other, and it will not disturb people." Yan Hong, you have been frightened a lot, and you have also made a lot of contributions, if you didn't handle it properly, I'm afraid that Shandong would really be in chaos. Whatever reward you want, just say. ”

Yan Hong knew that after this major event, there was nothing terrible for him. Hurriedly kowtowed: "Back to the old man's words, the boy will run an errand for you, which is the blessing of the boy." This trip to Shandong came down, and he not only made a fortune, but also got a beauty, and he gained both wealth and beauty. Not to mention being stained with immortal energy, let alone adding decades of longevity, how dare you ask for any reward? ”

Jiajing scolded with a smile: "You cunning, don't be an old man who doesn't know what to do." Then Wang Xuan's money, I'm afraid you have made a lot of money, right? Even the old man's money dares to drift, he really should be beaten! ”

Yan Hong hurriedly knelt down, kowtowed a few times and said, "If you go back to the old immortal, the kid has collected some money along the way, and he has bought food in Jinan for disaster relief." Later, Wang Xuan's reverse birth was confiscated, and it did drift away. If the old fairy sees the crime, the kid will all return, and he will not dare to hide anything. ”

Jiajing saw him like this, but he just laughed for a while. Lu Bing opened his mouth at this time: "After all, this kid has a conscience better than those civil officials who supervise Cao, but they have to drift away for thirty percent, and I don't think he can even drift into one percent." "At that time, corruption in the Ming Dynasty had become a common practice, and the money and grain transported by Cao were generally transported to ten to seven to give the emperor face. It's still a matter of law, and that's still it. Relatively speaking, Yan Hong got an unexpected floating fortune, and he was able to hand over eighty percent to the imperial court and the inner treasury, which is indeed relatively conscientious.

Emperor Jiajing was actually joking. Since the emperor is not a hungry soldier, how can he not know this truth? If he didn't give Yan Hong any benefits, why would the other party make money for himself? Therefore, he didn't pay attention to Yan Hong and Zhang Cheng's drifting, but when he saw Lu Bing exonerating him, he smiled and said:

"Wenfu, when he really becomes a relative of your Lu family, it's not too late for you to protect him like this. He doesn't want to reward, I can't help but give, this time, I heard that a gang of horse thieves were recruited, they fought to the death with a knife and a gun with the Tatars and the bandits. Such loyal martyrs should indeed be rewarded, especially since they are your relatives, Yan Hong, tell me, what official position do you want to protect for them? ”

Yan Hong already had a draft, and immediately said: "Old Immortal Rongyu, according to my thoughts, boy, for those who have died in battle, according to their merits, they will be given some bereavement, so that their orphans and widows will not starve, that is." As for those who survived, they were made officials with no position, title and no power, and they could get a Taiping salary. With an official body, a hereditary military function, and no worries about children and grandchildren, and then get some land, and become a rich man with peace of mind, it is a beautiful thing that cannot be changed. "That's just the general direction. The specific people who are crowned with how big an official and how much pension they will give when they die must have different differences for different people. For example, the original team under Sun Lie of Feihu Mountain and the people who once followed Lei Zhanbiao into Jinan City, and then anyway, how can this be treated as one?

Jiajing laughed when he heard this: "You kid, you are really a ghost. Like you, how many idlers does the court have to raise? Your abacus is too loud, the old man is not fooled. I don't care what great good things you promised them at the beginning, how to deal with these bandits now, the old man has his own arrangements. That old man Sun Lie, give me the title of commander and envoy, go back to Shandong and bring me a battalion leader, straighten out the ground, and sweep away the bandits. You tell him, whether it is a move or a slash against me, enough food and salary, and a well-armed old man to protect it. Now the Xiangma on Shandong Road is either his old accomplice or his disciple and grandson, let him show me those people. If there is another thunder thief, I will cut off his head without regard for your face. As for the others, even if these guys don't know the rules of the Imperial Court, they are always familiar with slashing people in battle. At present, the Ming Dynasty is restless, there is a shortage of people in the border army, and Hu Zongxian is also short of people. Just send them all over separately, be a petty officer, rely on their own skills, and give me a knife and a gun. As long as you can make meritorious deeds, why should the court be rewarded? But if you want to count on this time, you can eat the old book for the rest of your life, there is no such cheap thing. ”

Although Emperor Jiajing said ruthlessly, it actually gave Yan Hong a lot of face. Although there is a saying that "if you want to be an official, you will be recruited to kill people and set fires", but in fact, there is no such thing as recruiting people and thieves, and the establishment within the system is not so easy to enter. Thousands of people are recruited, and those who can stay and be incorporated into soldiers may not even have dozens.

One of the more famous cases is in the Qing Dynasty when Yan Donglai came to the time and space. Dong Fuxiang in the northwest led the troops to claim that 200,000 surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and the imperial court organized its troops into three battalions of Dong Zi, and the battalion soldiers and long-term husbands added up to only 2,000, and the rest were all dismissed, and the containment rate was only 1 percent. This time, all the people up and down the Flying Tiger Mountain were incorporated into the army, and they were all given official titles, which was unprecedented favor.

What's even more exaggerated is that these people not only have a vacant title, but also give them real officer positions. It is necessary to know that the Ming Dynasty has been flooded with military exploits to the present, fighting a big battle, and the military exploits are unknown. This kind of honor, rank, and even official rank are worthless, and their status is similar to that of the late Qing Dynasty's additional foreign commissioners. If you want to get the real shortage, you have to take out the money to come to the military department to plug the dog hole, and look forward to making up for a real job. Otherwise, it's an empty title, and you don't even have a good fortune.

For example, this time alone, Yang Bo commanded the border army to defeat Kuten Khan, the commander of the big case, Tongzhi, etc., there are no less than hundreds of people, but among them, it is good to have one-tenth of them. And now, more than 100 people in Feihu Mountain have all occupied the real official quota, so Yang Bo has tried his best to win a battle, but there are only a few real official quotas left, which is equivalent to this tearing up in vain.
