Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Fan Yongdou retired.
Zhai Zhe is also considering Fan Yongdou's opinion.
If even Fan Yongdou is against him, then this matter may really be debatable. It was a businessman with no heart, a real businessman, he had thought about killing him before, but in the ghost messenger, they continued to cooperate, and they became each other's most trusted superiors and subordinates.
It is undeniable that in-laws play a huge role here, but they are not the only ones who are related
It's all because Fan Yongdou is a pure businessman. For the sake of profit, he can take a qiē in exchange; Therefore, in order to maintain what he has now, he can also sweep away the one qiē that stands in front of King Jin.
Flipping through the accounts of the imperial court's expenses, Zhai Zhe occasionally had the urge to wait for me from time to time.
However, political reform is not a one-time success, and rushing to reform the political system will lead to great turmoil.
At present, the confrontation between the Ming Dynasty and the Qing court across the river is still the most important problem he faces, and the reason why he levies two taxes and wants to store grain is that the real purpose is to manage money. The food, drink, and rewards of hundreds of thousands of troops, as well as firearms, armor, and salaries, all depended on Jiangnan and Huguang.
Money is never enough to spend.
When he led a gang of horse thieves in Sebei, there was not enough money to spend; Now he is the general of the Ming and Jin Dynasty, and the money is still not enough to spend.
However, what he owns is already the richest land in the Ming Dynasty, and if even he is so difficult, Dolgon's life must be even more difficult.
Peace between the imperial court and Zheng Zhilong can be maintained for a day, as long as the Yangtze River defense line is not chaotic, he believes that Zheng Zhilong does not have the courage to openly rebel. Zheng Zhilong's talent doesn't need to be said, fortunately, he is not as radical as his son.
"As long as the imperial court really controls Hunan, it is I who killed Zheng Sen in Nanjing, and Zheng Zhilong doesn't dare to show half a word, I don't know how Xu Yiyang is doing in Changsha Mansion?" Zhai Zhe closed the account book, and his thoughts drifted to Huguang, only to remember that Gao Huijun arrived in Nanjing today.
A smile naturally floated on his face, whether it was a son or a daughter, it was always the happiest thing for him to have another child.
He pulled out his chair and hurried out the door.
Changsha Province.
Xu Yiyang leaned under the big banyan tree in the courtyard, and Li Qiuyue played a little tune on one side.
"Okay" Xu Yiyang stopped the music, today he was a little absent-minded, and said: "I'm going out tomorrow, those two people will definitely come to you, you know what to say"
Li Qiuyue put away the instrument.
"You go to see Guan Ping"
Li Qiuyue swallowed and said, "I'm afraid they won't let me see it."
"What are you afraid of, now they are begging you, not you begging them"
Xu Yiyang got up from the recliner. Early this morning, someone sent him a message that Du Yinxi would return to Changsha the day after tomorrow.
For three days, he did not go to see Yuan Changcai. But he did not let go of the Changsha prefect, and sent his own soldiers to the prefect's yamen once a day to urge.
The next day, Xu Yiyang went to the Changsha General Military Mansion to talk with Liu Chengyin for a whole day, and did not return to the house until evening.
Zhang Ding and others in Ningxiang County recruited private soldiers in the mine, and they had an inside line of the government, if he didn't lure those people to Changsha, he would have no chance of succeeding. If his estimate is correct, before Plug Yinxi returns to Changsha, Yuan Changcai and the others will definitely come up with a countermeasure and wait for Plug Yinxi's approval. Then Zhang Ding and others must be growing these days
Back in the house, Li Qiuyue was staying. She had just returned from Qiuyue Tower.
"Did you see those people?"
Li Qiuyue was frightened by him, patted her chest and relieved, and said, "I see, four people at a time."
"Have you seen Guan Ping?"
Li Qiuyue shook her head and said, "No, they don't agree"
Xu Yiyang had a number in his heart. He didn't fully believe Li Qiuyue, and letting her go to see Guan Ping was testing her. If Li Qiuyue told Yuan Changcai everything he said, Yuan Changcai would most likely arrange for Guan Ping to meet with Li Qiuyue to calm his heart.
"You're talking about four people?"
"Zhang Yuanwai, Lord Yuan, and two others, one of them calls Zhang Yuanwai uncle, and the other doesn't talk much."
"That's Zhang Ding," Xu Yiyang was overjoyed. That's the same as what the Jinyi Guard's secret agent reported.
He took out a few invitations from his sleeve and said, "You help me write a few posts, tomorrow afternoon, I want to gather at Wangjiang Tower."
Li Qiuyue asked, "Which ones?" ”
"Liu Chengyin, Yuan Changcai and Zhang Xinzheng"
Wangjianglou is the most famous liquor shop in Changsha, which has always been a place to receive dignitaries and celebrities, and it is also the industry of the Zhang family. Invite others to dinner at other people's homes, Xu Yiyang, the Qin Mission, is really good at choosing a place. But Zhang Xinzheng is not an official of the imperial court, he can only invite Liu Yuan and others in Zhang's place to attach Zhang Xinzheng to him. And asking Li Qiuyue to write an invitation is also hinting at thanking Zhang Xinzheng for giving her daughter.
At night, Xu Yiyang still fell asleep. The woman's senses are keen, although it is as usual, Li Qiuyue vaguely feels that something unusual is about to happen.
At the end of the next day, Xu Yiyang and his beauties led Zhang Dawu and other 20 soldiers to Wangjiang Tower for a banquet.
Zhang Xinzheng was waiting there early, and Liu Chengyin arrived soon. In the end, it was Yuan Changcai, as soon as he entered the door, he confessed again and again.
Zhang Xinzheng's arrangement is quite appropriate, in addition to Li Qiuyue accompanying Xu Yiyang, Yuan Changcai and Liu Chengyin are also accompanied by singers.
Wine and food first, then singing and dancing.
Yuan Changcai and Zhang Xinzheng had already heard Li Qiuyue say that although this Lord Qincha was not confused by beauty and forgot about his errand, he was helpless to stay in the mansion, so the two of them were still wary of the two now.
There was laughter and laughter during the banquet, because Xu Yiyang drank wine today, and everyone didn't drink much.
After noon, after three rounds of drinking, Xu Yiyang waved his hand and ordered the singer to retreat, and said: "I came to Changsha Mansion and received your warm hospitality, and I am very grateful." Today, you are in a good mood, and I shouldn't have said anything about the scenery, but I still need your help on this errand, otherwise I will not be able to explain to the King of Jin when I return to Nanjing. He directly said the king of Jin, not the court, to show honesty.
Yuan Changcai said: "The matter of tax resistance has already been decided, just wait for Lord Gu to come back for review, and give Lord Qincha an answer."
"How did I hear that this matter has something to do with Zhang Lao" Xu Yiyang said suddenly, which startled Zhang Xinzheng, "I heard that the two mines in Ningxiang County are opened by Zhang Lao's nephew, and Zhang Lao also has shares."
"Nonsense," Zhang Xinzheng pushed the woman next to him away.
Xu Yiyang said: "Elder Zhang is a veteran of Changsha Shilin, and I am afraid that it is not appropriate to do such a thing."
Zhang Xinzheng smiled and said, "Lord Xu said that he was laughing, and I don't know who framed me behind my back."
Xu Yiyang said: "No one has framed you, the Zhang family is a tyrant in Changsha, the second son of the Zhang family is clever and robbed, and the third son of the Zhang family bullies men and women, and the envoy has received a lot of complaints recently."
Yuan Changcai was secretly surprised, Liu Chengyin was only drinking.
Zhang Xinzheng understood, today's wine is only afraid that it is not so delicious. He stretched out his hand and pushed the wine glass to the ground, and the wine flew with white porcelain shards, "Lord Xu, don't spew blood."
Xu Yiyang said: "Although the envoy came to fight the tax case, if there are other grievances, he can't ignore them
Zhang Xinzheng was furious and said, "What are you going to do with me?" He stood up and was about to walk away, when four men walked in through the door, all with short knives stripped at their waists. Zhang Sanwu is the youngest of the three brothers, looking like a monkey, with only a pair of shining eyes.
Liu Chengyin raised his head and looked at Xu Yiyang.
Xu Yiyang said: "This envoy went to Changsha to handle the case in the imperial court, since Lord Yuan has always had difficulties, this envoy can only do it himself, Lord Yuan and General Liu Bing are a little restless, wait for a while for the human and physical evidence to arrive, and I will let the two of you understand." ”
Yuan Changcai was shocked and said: "Is Lord Xu mistaken, the criminal has been arrested and is being held in prison, and has nothing to do with Lord Zhang."
Xu Yiyang said: "It doesn't matter, I'll know later."
Liu Chengyin retracted his gaze, leaned back in his chair, and stopped talking. Although he is not happy, this scene has nothing to do with him.
Zhang Xinzheng calmed down, did not panic, sat back in place, and said: "Lord Xu, you are not small, don't forget that this is Changsha." "Tear your face, you don't have to speak politely.
Xu Yiyang said: "What's wrong with Changsha, isn't it the king's land?" ”
Several of the singers who accompanied the wine were frightened and retreated to the side.
Zhang Xinzheng suddenly thought of something, stood up in a hurry and pointed at Xu Yiyang and said: "You are a hairy child who has not yet smelled milk, do you think you can do whatever you want when you go to Changsha with the holy decree?" Is Mr. Liu just watching there? Lord Yuan"
Xu Yiyang said: "This is a political matter, if someone wants to rebel, of course Liu Zongbing will not let it go"
In this matter, a person rushed in in a panic outside, and when he saw Zhang Xinzheng, he immediately rushed over and cried: "The master is not good, a group of soldiers surrounded the mansion and arrested the second master and the two sons of Ningxiang."
Zhang Xinzheng's fingers trembled, pointed at Xu Yiyang, and scolded: "How dare you be so bold?"
Yuan Changcai and Liu Chengyin stood up at the same time, their faces full of surprise, and looked at Xu Yiyang.
"You, you" Yuan Changcai was speechless.
Xu Yiyang sat there still.
As he spoke, Zhang Erwu broke in in with blood stains on his body. He bowed his hand to Xu Yiyang and said: "Lord Qiyu, Ningxiang Erzhang, only one was arrested, one escaped, and several barbarians resisted arrest and have been killed on the spot."
"What's the matter" Xu Yiyang was furious and scolded: "Why did you let one escape?"
Zhang Erwu said: "That guy is very cunning, he hid in the back garden and walked over the wall"
This series of news hit Zhang Xinzheng's head like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, and he pointed at Xu Yiyang and scolded: "Huangkou Xiaoer, how dare you do this? ”
Xu Yiyang ignored him, turned to Liu Chengyin, and said: "There are Qin prisoners who have escaped, and the envoy is going to send someone to arrest him, so I ask General Liu to send troops to assist."
Liu Chengyin hasn't spoken yet.
Xu Yiyang said again: "He can't run away from the monk in Ningxiang and run away from the temple."
Liu Chengyin hesitated and asked, "Is the evidence really conclusive?" ”
"Lord Blockade will go back to Changsha, if there is a crime, I will bear it alone, if General Liu does not send people, I will let the soldiers and horses arrest him"
Liu Chengyin peeked at Yuan Changcai, saw him shrinking next to him and didn't speak, and promised: "Okay, I'll send a team of soldiers and horses to lead the way." ”
The shape shì changes not as fast as usual.
"You, you" Zhang Xinzheng pointed to the two people around him, and he stumbled.
The so-called strong turned out to be so fragile.
