Chapter 235: Back to the Village (11)
The Shen family is holding a funeral for the former patriarch, once the master and the servant, the former steward who died is indeed no longer cared for by the clan, and the bereaved family members are even more problematic to make a living, and the errands that are done well are very likely to be deliberately topped by others, and the bereaved family members also want to make a fuss for themselves, but what they didn't expect was that this added a lot of jokes to the people in the county.
The former patriarch sent dozens of big men to occupy the little lady's land, but when it failed, he was beaten to the point that his head was broken and he was bleeding, and one person died.
Who believes?
It's not like making up stories, in order to occupy the land of other people's little girls, they dare to say any nonsense, fortunately, they are the military households of the Bai family's army, and there is a large army behind them, so they didn't let Shen's malicious framing succeed.
No one cares what the bereaved families think in their hearts if they fail to achieve their goals, and the Shen clan, whose reputation and reputation have been smeared, were provoked, and they directly handed over the family to the people and sold them to the mines.
After sending away the people who caused trouble, the anger in the hearts of the elders of the Shen clan still did not go down, it was all caused by the Bai family's army, thinking about how to get the anger out on them, anyway, the two sides are now a little bit of a tendency to tear their faces, and they don't have to worry about any face.
The Shen clan, the largest local snake emperor in Donglin County, is holding a funeral, and it stands to reason that they should keep a low profile for a while, but no, Bai Qing has been chasing after them to compensate and turn over the old cases, so that the earth emperors, who are accustomed to no one in their eyes, can't swallow this breath, and write letters to contact their connections, crying that they were being bullied, so the court has received countless complaints and grievances.
In the face of the accusations issued by the imperial court, Bai Qing began to unite his grandfather and father to sell miserably and ask for money from the imperial court, and listed the expenses for rebuilding coastal defense to the imperial court.
If it is said that a place in Donglin County asks for ships and weapons, and the imperial court can squeeze a lot of money, but if it is said that it is the strong ships and cannons needed to guard the coastline of Dong'an Mansion, the money bags of the imperial court are empty.
Because of a very embarrassing thing, the predecessor of the East China Sea border army did not save the family, the money was filled by the generals themselves, the training ship that went to sea was like a grounded broken ship, and the soldiers were even more negligent in training for a long time, and most of the time the soldiers had to be busy finding food for themselves to feed the family, and the Bai family army, who was given a heavy responsibility, took over an empty East China Sea coastal defense.
There is no money, no money, no boats, no weapons.
The imperial court, where the treasury was empty, had no confidence in the legitimate demands of the Bai family, and the accusations were also weakened a lot.
But Emperor Taiyuan's anger did not subside, and he vented his anger on the head of Donglin County, the county honor, the county Cheng and the main book to the end, and the other officials of the Ministry of Officials took office in the past.
In this way, the power of Donglin County fell into the hands of Bai Qing as he wished, and after the new officials arrived, they didn't want to do anything to cover the sky with the local squires, and with his precedent, the thousands of generals of the Bai family army in other counties in Dong'an Mansion would be much cheaper to deal with the local government every day, and the small actions of the magistrates should be somewhat restrained, otherwise, the squires would still be those squires, and the magistrates would not necessarily be magistrates.
The Ministry of War simply issued a document suggesting that General Bai should not be too ruthless when he made money from the local government to raise military salaries, so as not to kill the sheep and not kill them in the next year.
Don't catch one of the wool and make it hard, and let the rain and dew be wet, which is probably what it means.
