Chapter 577: Innocence and Merit
Feng Baodao: "Back to heaven, the slave was summoned by you and hurried back, and the amount of silver has not been counted for a while." But please rest assured, in the inner transport kuna, the slaves and maids arranged are all people who have believed, and there will never be a single mistake. In addition, there was also a bloody confession from Wang Zhi, which was sent with the ship. ”
"Bring it in."
Jiajing unfolded the blood book and looked at it carefully, the expression on his face changed slightly, and handed the blood book to Lu Bing. After Lu Bing looked at it, he said: "Wang Wufeng's ambition is not small, but with him as a thief, if he fights a little, it may be feasible to harass him, if he really wants to destroy a country, I am afraid that he may not be able to." ”
Jiajing Ha said with a smile: "It's to make a big deal in Japan to solve the hatred in the old man's heart." These Japanese people, relying on the fact that they are a country that will not be conquered by Hong Wuye, have repeatedly provoked and offended our great prestige. In the past, it was only harassed in North Korea, but now it has directly caused trouble in the southeast of our Heavenly Dynasty. It is not good for our soldiers to drive directly to Japan to teach them a lesson, and with Wang Zhi's hand, they will be slashed hard, and they will also taste the power. Besides, I heard Yan Hong's kid say that Japan is rich in gold and silver, and if Wang Zhi can get Japan's gold and silver to my Ming Dynasty, it will be a great merit. ”
Jiajing instructed Feng Baohe to stand aside, and he called a few little eunuchs around him, telling them to go to the inner carrier warehouse to ask for the amount of money. Lu Bing was not busy, only closed his eyes slightly, and waited with peace of mind. He believes that he will never lose this round of fighting.
After a while, the little eunuch did not come back, but the secretary of the general administration sent a stack of folded books. These are all officials from Chaozhong Huguang, who heard about the Dongbianmen incident and put down the work at hand. Hurry out to ask for this chapter.
These people can be officials in the court. To a large extent, it benefits from the blunt support. Now that I heard that Fang Yu had suffered such a big loss, how could he still ignore it? It's just that time is urgent, and it's too late to connect with each other, so they can only fight separately. Nowadays, there are not a few Huguang officials in the Beijing Division, and even if they are not all mobilized, the six or seven adult horses are also a combat force that cannot be underestimated. The target of the impeachment is not an important minister of the country, but only a concubine of the Yan family. No matter how domineering Yan Song is. How could it be possible to fight against so many courtiers and doctors for the sake of a grandson's concubine? According to common sense, after seeing so many copies, if he is interested, he should also have a clear attitude and order the woman to commit suicide, so that the two sides will stop fighting and there will be one less fight. Even if Lao Yan Tie wants to protect this mother-in-law, he has to throw a scapegoat, so you come and go. There is room for war.
On the other hand, those officials of the Forbidden Sea faction. inquired carefully about the affairs of the southeast, and also heard the news of Wang Zhi's offering of silver, so he sent his family to Dongbianmen to inquire about the situation. As a result, I heard that Sun Yuerong was chopping people on the street. When these people learned that things had evolved to this point, they expected that those Huguang officials would not suffer in vain, so they also went to the book one after another to demand that Sun Yuerong's crimes be investigated. This matter was originally righteous and strict, and they all hoped to take the opportunity to at least disgust the Yan family.
But they didn't know that Yan Shifan had already made up his mind, and they were not moved at all. In the face of the turbulent public opinion in the DPRK and China, Yan Fu did not clean up the portal by himself, and secondly, he did not defend himself, but secretly mobilized a group of his own minions, and began to prepare black materials, preparing to slowly concoct these officials who came out to help Fang Dut.
Jiajing's side, after reading these chapters that were dull and unfair, and asked for Sun Yuerong to be severely punished, he was noncommittal, as if listening to gossip, his face was light and light, and he couldn't see the slightest change. After about an hour, he sent out the little eunuchs and replied one after another: "Over there in the inner transport warehouse, the silver has been counted clearly, and a total of 1,490,000 and 2,700 taels of silver have been put into the warehouse. This figure is the result of several double-checks, and there is absolutely no mistake. ”
It is said that although the specific amount of silver offered is 1.5 million taels written on Yan Hong's recital, it is not difficult for the eunuchs to suffer a deficit. First of all, the scale is large and the scale is small, and the second scale is wrong, which is a number. Not to mention the inland river transportation, there is already a proportion of floating in it. According to the style of eunuchs on weekdays, 1.5 million silver can be sent to the emperor about 1.3 million, and the rest is divided by a few private families. If it is a civilian official, it will be 1.5 million, and if it falls into the library, it will become more than 1 million, that is, the unspoken rule that Cao Yun drifts by 30%.
But this time, due to the commotion on the side of Dongbianmen, there were a few more lives, and these eunuchs were also a little muttering. After Feng Bao heard about this, he took the charter, and we can't take any of the money this time. Anyway, Xiao Xianggong has already prepared a benefit, if he takes this money again, it will be too obvious, and he is afraid that he will not be able to spend it.
Feng Bao now has some prestige among the eunuchs, especially these people who receive money from the inner carrier warehouse, and they are Feng Bao's hardcore henchmen and can completely control it. Therefore, these eunuchs actually had a rare temperance and did not take money! As for the silver owed, it is indeed an error between scales, and it is no wonder.
When Jiajing heard this number, he nodded secretly. How is he not clear about this drift and the size of the scale? However, if the water is clear, there are no fish, and if you want your subordinates to work, you have to leave room for them to get money, otherwise who will still work hard? Therefore, the old emperor has always pretended to be deaf and dumb and ignored it, and today's number is reported, which fully shows that the people involved in the matter have a very good conscience. Yan Hong sent 1.5 million, and these eunuchs only embezzled 7,300 taels, which is simply a saint.
Since basically no one steals their own money, all the accusations against Jinyiwei do not exist. Jiajing glanced at Huang Jin again, turned to Lu Bing and said, "Wenfu, you have been wronged in this incident. Fortunately, the Sun family arrived in time and restrained Fang Lao'er, otherwise the old man's silver would have been taken away from Taicang, but it would be difficult to take it out. In this matter, Sun did a good job. ”
He didn't mention that he was angry with Lu Bing, nor did he mention how to deal with the relevant personnel, but only said that the Sun family did a good job, which was tantamount to setting the tone for this matter, so the following things would be easy to do. Huang Jin didn't care much at this time, and knelt down on his robe and said: "Long live, please listen to the old slave, the Fang family is also dead, and the one who died still has the official body of a hundred households in brocade." ”
Jiajing snorted coldly, "What's going on with his official body, I still don't know?" Receiving a salary, he is embarrassed to say that he is a brocade cloth? When will a slave be considered a man? If it's dead, it's dead, can't the old party take out the money to burn and bury it? ”
As he spoke, the emperor grabbed another excerpt demanding that Sun Yuerong be brought to justice, and the wording of this excerpt was the strongest. Upper book: Emperor Taizu Gao has a training: There are talents in the world, the treasure of the country, the holy king of the ancients, and the constant learning from the talents. Gai Xiancai is not prepared, and it is not enough to govern. The one who can elect the bird has wings; The dragon can leap, for it has scales; Those who can govern by the king of men are supplemented by sages. Today, there are strict women, ignoring etiquette, galloping horses, rampant, and insulting scholars. Kill people on the street, walk away, and treat the law of the country as nothing. If it is not brought to justice, everyone in the world will look sideways, and the scholars will be cold, and I am afraid that no one will be willing to serve the court and share the worries with the country.
Jiajing grabbed this chapter, picked up the imperial pen and wrote twelve big characters on it, and threw it to Feng Baodao: "This is my imperial approval, let Weizhong send this chapter back and let these people take a look." Feng Bao saw that the twelve-character royal approval was: and cut Yangzhou silk Suzhou shoes Yunnan knife. Feng Bao was originally smart, and after a little thought, he knew the emperor's intention: to fight well.
In addition to this royal approval with a lot of black humor, those officials who speak a little too much will be demoted and punished. As for the two brocade guards who died in battle, the emperor decreed that they would reward five hundred taels of platinum as a pawn, and that their sons should be allowed to take up their posts with the rank of one hundred households. The two brocade clothes were only small flags when they died, and this time their sons jumped several levels in a row, jumped over the dragon gate, and became a hundred households, which was enough to pay for their merits. For the brocade clothes injured by the cangding, each person received fifty taels of platinum as the cost of the decoction to recuperate from the wounds, but as for the cangding who participated in the war in Dongbianmen, he ignored it. And Fang Jie's murder will not be investigated.
In addition, for the affairs of the southeast, the emperor also dealt with it by the way. Wang Bengu, who bravely captured Wang Zhi in Hangzhou City and resolutely impeached Hu Zongxian and Yan Hong's illegal behavior, was also degraded. Originally, Wang Bengu's patrol period had not yet expired, and at least he had to wait until he came back from the south and reported on the patrol work before dealing with it. As a result, Emperor Jiajing expressed impatience to wait for so many times, and directly demoted him to Wanzai County, Yuanzhou, Jiangxi Province as a magistrate. Yuanzhou, Jiangxi is Yan Song's hometown, it can be said that it is the basic plate of the Yan family, the prefect to the county, are all people who tend to attach to the Yan family, the gentry are large, and the relatives of the Yan family are the majority. This is just like the officials of Songjiang Mansion, all of whom are cronies outside Xumen. Wang Bengu impeached Yan Hong, which was regarded as provoking Yan Song and throwing him to Yan Song's hometown to be the county magistrate, Jiajing believed that Yan Song had a way to make Wang Bengu want to die.
At the same time, the emperor inexplicably rewarded Yan Song with two hundred taels of silver, ten brocades, and a pair of gold flowers. He also decreed that Huzong would be given the title of secretary of the military police department, perform his duties in Nanjing, still hold the seal of the governor of Zhejiang and Zhi, and another son of Yin was a thousand households in brocade clothes, rewarded with 500 taels of silver, a pair of white bi, 20 colored satin, and allowed to stay in the salt tax of Zhejiang this year, for the use of the labor army. Yan Hong was fined for half a year because of misconduct, in order to punish him, but Taizhou was victorious, and he could not help but reward, and a son of Zhun Yin was a thousand households in brocade clothes, and a jade belt of mountains and rivers and 500 acres of fertile land.
When the reward came down, the court was in an uproar. Yan Shifan looked at this reward, and said with a smile: "Father, this reward was given to the Sun family by the Heavenly Family. She's so good at slashing. not only gave himself a reward, but also gave our Yan family a household book. As for Hong'er, it seems that the Heavenly Family is also going to let him divorce his wife. He doesn't even have a son now, who will shade these thousand households? It is clearly the shadow seal that Lu Wenfu fought for his grandson. (To be continued......)
