Chapter 931: Blood Rain Jiangnan

Next, Hong Chengchou immediately ushered in wave after wave of attacks, more impeachment pieces were sent to the capital than before, and some people even came to Beijing to ring the Dengwen drum to sue the emperor, many of them have real materials, Hong Chengchou is not a Hai Rui general character, how can he not have a handle; However, Li You still ignored this, Hong Chengchou certainly had problems, but the gentry in Jiangnan had more problems, unless Hong Chengchou made the affairs in Jiangnan completely out of control, otherwise he would not have asked Hong Chengchou to ask for guilt at this time, not only that, but he also sent someone to Jiangnan to comfort Hong Chengchou, which strengthened his determination.

Cao Wenzhao and Chen Guangfu also took action, a bandit who began to clear Jiangnan on land, and firmly controlled the Jinling soldiers and horses and the Jiangnan Guard and other armies in their own hands; And Chen Guangfu completely cleared the nearby pirates on the sea, originally the pirates in this vicinity have been washed by Zheng Zhilong, and the large number of pirates has long been wiped out, and now those small pirates who have escaped Zheng Zhilong have ushered in such a killing god, so dare to have other thoughts?

The emperor's side did not lose trust in Hong Chengchou at all, and most of the troops, bandits, and pirates in various places were also solved by Cao Wenzhao and Chen Guangfu, not to mention whether the gentry in Jiangnan had the courage to take risks, even if they wanted to take risks, there was not much power in their hands, and the situation in Jiangnan was still firmly controlled by Hong Chengchou.

If the hard one doesn't work, then the soft one, Hong Chengchou's failure to accept gifts does not mean that his subordinates do not accept gifts, as long as these people are bought, Hong Chengchou will be hollowed out, what role can he play? So those subordinate officials who followed him to the south became the focus of the Jiangnan gentry's bribery, up to the household department, the official department, the three law divisions, the middle to the staff praise painting, down to the small officials, there are countless people to come to the door, among which there are no brave people who accept the benefits and try to help these people fool around.

However, how could Hong Chengchou be defenseless against this? Not to mention that half of the Jinyiwei and Dongchang people who followed him south were specifically aimed at the interior, even he himself could see the flaws from the official documents reported by these officials, although Hong Chengchou had a problem with his character, but he was not a fool who only knew how to study, and he was also extremely clear about the methods in these public doors; Once the problem is discovered, it will be thoroughly investigated immediately, and if it is found that someone has indeed received money and tried to help the Jiangnan gentry do things, Hong Chengchou will not hesitate to ask Shang Fang to kill these people on the spot, and go to the court to ask Li You to continue to send them to replenish.

Li You supported him unreservedly, not only did not pursue Hong Chengchou's unauthorized killing of court officials, but instead sent more people as he wished; This is very different from Yuan Chonghuan's killing of Mao Wenlong at the beginning, first, Yuan Chonghuan did not have the power to kill Mao Wenlong, but Hong Chengchou was given the right to dispose of these officials by Li You; Second, Yuan Chonghuan lacked solid evidence to kill Mao Wenlong, but Hong Chengchou waited for the evidence to be available and the case was turned into an iron case; At most, others can say that he is too harsh, but they can't find the guilt of violating the laws of the court.

Afterwards, he also hung the heads of these people outside the Qincha Yamen, in order to warn those Jiangnan gentry and the subordinate officials in the Qincha Yamen, and warn these people not to lose their heads for a little silver, and at the same time, he did not hesitate to reward those subordinates who were quite upright and capable of doing things, and sent them to the capital one after another, and before they returned to Beijing, several orders for promotion of officials arrived in Jiangnan, and many people were promoted because of this.

On the one hand, he died on the spot, and on the other hand, he was straight up, but anyone who was a little sensible knew that way to choose, and soon the Qincha Yamen was re-pinched into an iron plate by Hong Chengchou; On the other hand, on the side of the Jiangnan gentry, they will not be able to unite in the treatment of alien races like the Manchu Qing in the future, not to mention that now they are facing the imperial court, and there are more and more people who are being co-opted and subdued by Hong Chengchou, and there are fewer and fewer stubborn guys in the corner.

And Hong Chengchou then made a big move, after obtaining conclusive evidence, he directly sent people to surround Dong Qichang and Qian Qianyi's mansions, and arrested them and the main members of their family, Dong Qichang is a Jinshi in the seventeenth year of Wanli, the official to the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, calligraphy and painting is the best in the world, has a huge reputation in Shilin, and the Dong family is also a wealthy family in Songjiang Mansion; And Qian Qianyi is the thirty-eighth year of Wanli Tanhua, the official to the Ministry of Rites, the article is the best in the world, known as the leader of the literary world, has a wide influence on Jiangnan scholars, and the Qian family is also a wealthy family in Suzhou.

Even the leading figures among the two Jiangnan gentry were taken down by Hong Chengchou, which immediately caused a huge earthquake in Jiangnan; Subsequently, Hong Chengchou sent fast horses to send the news and the evidence of the two of them to the capital; Li You was also quite emotional when he saw it, these two people would have been reactivated after Wei Zhongxian's death, but when Li You came here, he naturally wouldn't use them, he thought that these two people would have a good end because of this, but he didn't expect them to fall into his own hands.

Although these two people have outstanding talent in art and are deeply admired by scholars, it does not mean that they are good people, the Dong family and the Qian family have done a lot of bad things in Songjiang Mansion and Suzhou Mansion, and the local people have complained about these two families, and the evidence sent by Hong Chengchou is also very conclusive, so Li You did not hesitate to sentence them and the main accomplices in the clan to death, and the family was exiled according to the precedent.

Even such two big men were killed, and the Dong family and the Qian family were also uprooted, this time it immediately shocked all the Jiangnan gentry, just imagine how many people are more powerful than Dong Qichang and Qian Qianyi? Although there are many gentry in Jiangnan, there are few who are more powerful than the two of them and have higher official positions than the two of them, even if they see this scene, they should wake up.

After killing a group of people ruthlessly, Jiangnan finally fell under the control of the imperial court, and then Hong Chengchou finally began to clean up the fields and acres in Jiangnan according to Li You's orders and re-verify the various taxes in Jiangnan.

Seeing this scene, the gentry in Jiangnan couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh, those chaotic people, except for a few cultists or bandits who mixed into the weavers and tried to fish in troubled waters, were decisively executed by Hong Chengchou, the vast majority of them were released back to the countryside without the slightest punishment; On the contrary, it was the gentry in Jiangnan who bore most of the costs after this turmoil.

But now that many workshops have been destroyed, and the manufacturing method of new looms has long been spread throughout Jiangnan, even if the workshops are rebuilt in the future, there will probably not be so many weavers, right? How can this problem be solved?
