Deqing County.

Cai Yichen, who was worried about returning to his hometown, heard that Zhao Thief had sent troops to Zhejiang halfway, and immediately sped up and rushed back to his hometown.

The land is produced or something, just divide it, and you can do without tens of thousands of acres of land.

Cai Yichen hired a ship with a lot of money, recruited many coolies, loaded four ships of goods, and planned to flee Zhejiang with his family.

He is not afraid of Zhao Han, but afraid of the Donglin Party and the Restoration Society!

Because Cai Yichen is too deeply involved with Wen Tiren, and now he is Xue Guoguan's confidant, he has long been in an endless situation with the Restoration Society.

In this uprising in central Zhejiang, a large number of scholars of the restoration society defected to Zhao Han, and Cai Yichen was afraid of being retaliated against by these people.

"Don't let him run!"

A group of re-established scholars, leading peasant soldiers and members of the peasant association, surrounded Cai Yichen's family who were about to board the ship.

Cai Yichen was discouraged, these bastards who had resumed the society really refused to let go of themselves.

Cai Yiqi complained in his heart that his brother had offended the Restoration Society, and he said to the members of the peasant association: "The Cai family is willing to donate 30,000 taels to Zhao Tianwang as military funds." Our Cai family has grievances, and we ask to meet King Zhao in person, and you brothers should not be deceived by the Fushe! ”

A scholar of the Restoration Society shouted: "Don't listen to the nonsense of the Cai family, the Cai family is a traitor in the court, and in the wild fish and meat township, arrest them all and try them in public!" ”

The leader of the peasant association felt that something was wrong, but he did not dare to make up his mind, so he ran back to ask the missionary.

The missionary was also uncertain, so he simply detained the Cai family's belongings and escorted the Cai brothers to see Zhao Han.

Zhao Han still stayed in Hangzhou, only sending troops to continue to occupy the city, and at this moment he had already occupied Jiaxing and Huzhou.

After repeated discussions, it was finally decided to change the policy slightly. That is, more than 40% of the people in the village have the same surname, and this decree will be implemented, and only 30% of them will have the same surname left.

"Bring people in."

Zhao Han was reading the military newspaper, which was sent by Fei Ruhe.

Fei Ruhe's soldiers in the Eastern Courtyard fought smoothly all the way, but they were stuck when they hit Wuhu.

The city there is high and deep, and there are heavy troops, and they can't fight it for a while, so they simply divide their troops to capture the surrounding counties, preparing to turn Wuhu into a lonely city.

Putting down the military newspaper, the Cai brothers were brought in.

Zhao Han asked, "Who is Cai Yichen?" ”

"Back to Mr. Zhao, it's Cai Yichen below." Cai Yichen stepped forward.

"Aren't you a left squire in the imperial court?" Zhao Han asked.

Cai Yichen replied: "It's time for Ding Wei to return home." ”

Zhao Han asked again: "What grievances do you have?" ”

Cai Yichen said: "Qiyu Town, the Cai clan does have stubborn people, but it is not as bad as the outside world rumores. are all those scholars who have been restored, spreading rumors everywhere, saying that the Cai family is a heinous family. ”

Zhao Han asked: "You accepted bribes from Wu Zhongyan, helped Wu Zhongyan get rid of his crimes, and then transferred the silver to bribe Xue Guoguan." None of this is true, right? ”

"It's true," Cai Yichen argued, "but the bribery and bribery are all in the Ming Dynasty, not under the rule of the general town." Does the general town still want to help Emperor Chongzhen punish the corrupt and bribery officials of the Ming Dynasty? ”

"Haha," Zhao Han was amused, "You have a point, I really don't care about this." ”

Cai Yichen said again: "That Haining Wu clan has indeed aroused public anger. But the reason why the people aroused indignation was that the scholars of the Restoration Society publicized their bad deeds everywhere, and the Restoration Society did it in order to bring me down! ”

Zhao Han asked: "Could it be that Wu Zhongyan was wronged, and the Wu family has not done anything to harm the people?" ”

"I did, but it wasn't as exaggerated as the Fusha scholars promoted." Cai Yichen said.

Zhao Han said with a smile: "Since the cruelty of the people harms the people, it should be severely punished!" ”

Cai Yichen said: "Is the Fushe scholar innocent? What they did was not much better than that of the Haining Wu family. ”

"That's okay, you can report a few, and I'll deal with the Fushe scholars together." Zhao Han said happily.

Cai Yichen said: "Please give pen and ink." ”

Zhao Han asked the guards to take pen and paper, and Cai Yichen wrote down more than a dozen families with a pen, and also listed many very detailed crimes.

Zhao Han called the secretaries and instructed: "Divide the families who take the initiative to serve first, and all the rest will be tried and copied by the public." Drag these two surnamed Cai out, since there is no grievance, then deal with them together! ”

Cai Yichen was stunned, and then laughed sadly.

Before he died, he was able to drag several enemies on his back, and this trip to see Zhao Han was worth it.

The historical Cai Yichen and Wu Zhongyan cases, from the Wen Tiren era, have been running through to the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty, which directly caused the disintegration of the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty.

What Zhao Han encountered at this time was only the prelude to the case.

If there is no Zhao Han, it will be turned out next year, resulting in the death of the first assistant Xue Guoguan by Chongzhen, and Cai Yichen will also be dismissed.

At this point, it's still not over.

When the small imperial court of the Southern Ming Dynasty was established, Qian Qianyi suddenly severed his relationship with the Fushe, forcibly separated the Donglin Party from the Fushe, and recommended Cai Yichen to be reinstated. Cai Yichen spent money everywhere to buy officials at that time, and Qian Qianyi probably accepted bribes - when Cai Yichen was killed, it was also Qian Qianyi who was planning.

After Cai Yichen came to power, he immediately conspired to make trouble and took crazy revenge on the enemies of the Restoration Society, which made the Hongguang regime completely fall into the quagmire of party struggle.

A dog-eat-dog show!

In that good scene, Qian Qianyi was a clown. For the sake of profit, betrayal of the Restoration Society; For the sake of high positions, bribe villains; For the sake of money, recommend mortal enemies.

A few more days passed.

The bar spirit Mao Qiling begged to see him, and was brought in by Zhao Han's personal guards.

The face of this product was very ugly, and when they met, they said: "The head town wants to be the enemy of all the Jiangnan gentry?" ”

Zhao Han said with a smile: "The scholars who took the initiative to serve, I didn't move those families, I just divided the fields normally." ”

Mao Qiling said: "In the past few days, four major families in Hangzhou have been raided, all of whom are highly respected families who are heirlooms of poetry and rites and friendly to their neighbors!" How can this not make all the gentry feel cold? ”

Zhao Han called Li Yu over and said with a smile: "You tell him." ”

After Li Yu understood the situation, he arched his hand and said: "You said that Shili is a family heirloom and friendly to neighbors, is there any evidence?" ”

Mao Qiling said: "What more evidence do you need? Something that has a good reputation! ”

Li Yu sneered: "There is evidence that the town arrested people and raided their homes. Flying and scheming, forcibly seizing people's land, harming the public and private interests, preying on the people, abusing and killing domestic slaves, and occupying public canals...... One by one, there are many crimes. Everything you have done is clear! ”

"How do you know that there is no torture?" Mao Qiling asked rhetorically.

Li Yu said disdainfully: "I'm afraid you don't know, what is a public trial conference, what is a grievance conference!" ”

Mao Qiling said: "Tenants, domestic slaves, just scratching and biting. ”

"How do you know it's a random bite?" Li Yu asked.

"Tenants and domestic slaves can share the land, and they are afraid that the landlord will make it difficult for them to retaliate, so they naturally want to put the landlord to death!" Mao Qiling said.

Li Yu was speechless for a moment, turned to Zhao Han and said, "Zongzhen, I can't tell this person clearly, no matter what he says, he won't believe it." ”

Zhao Han summoned two personal guards and ordered: "You take this person, where there is a public trial meeting, where there is a grievance conference, let him observe and watch the whole process, and no one is allowed to fall!" ”

Mao Qiling still wanted to continue to raise the bar, but was directly dragged away by the guards.

After several public trials and complaints, the excited scenes of the group are afraid that they can scare this bar.

"The town!"

Another guard sent a message: "Some house slaves and scholars have reported that the Shen family in Pinghu is plotting to make trouble!" ”

Zhao Han took the letter and looked at it, and was immediately amused.

However, Zhao Han copied his house too fiercely, and the Pinghu Shen family felt that they had done a lot of evil, so they gathered their clansmen, domestic slaves and tenants, planning to raise troops to kill the officials sent by Zhao Han, and then the whole family fled to Nanjing to avoid trouble.

In the morning, they were reported in the afternoon, and there were dozens of whistleblowers.

Even among the whistleblowers, there are several Shen clan relatives.

Even if Zhao Han copied his house everywhere, it was not the entire clan that copied it together, so it was too widely implicated. Either it is limited to raiding the main sect or raiding the notorious branches, as long as the knife handle is in hand, it is impossible for the various clans and branches of the big family to work together.

Moreover, the large families recruited troops to resist, and could only gather domestic slaves, clansmen, and tenants.

Domestic slaves and tenants are waiting to divide the land, and the clansmen of other clans are also waiting to divide the family property, who is willing to die with you?

The whole process of dividing the fields did not encounter fierce resistance.

These big families, even if they want to resist, they can't recruit people when recruiting!

Homecoming?

If the regime presiding over the division of land does not fall, which returning to the hometown group will dare to come back? Believe it or not, he was beaten to death directly by the peasants!

Those majestic big families finally realized the horror of liberating slaves and dividing fields. The slave release order and the land division order, the house slaves and tenants all stood in opposition to them, and all the gentry and wealthy families were isolated.

Qian Qianyi, the boss of the Donglin Party, lives in Suzhou at the moment.

He could hear the wind every day, and all kinds of news came in.

Qian Qianyi planned to wait in Suzhou, and he had already figured out that Fei Yinghuan, the little friend he made at the beginning, was the father-in-law of Mr. Zhao, Jiangxi.

With this relationship, he is the leader of Jiangnan Shilin, and he is afraid that he will not be reused?

Therefore, Qian Qianyi must be reserved, waiting for Zhao Han to send someone to solicit him, and finally have a good show of Wolong out of the mountain.

Left and right, Zhao Han took Jiaxing and Huzhou two mansions, and suddenly stopped moving!

Zhao Han couldn't move, the forces were too scattered, and he had to wait for the officials to consolidate his territory, and then take back the scattered troops.

Immediately afterwards, there was news that many big clans had their homes raided, and Qian Qianyi finally couldn't sit still.

Famous families have all been raided, and the leader of Jiangnan Shilin is a fart?

Qian Qianyi immediately set off with his entourage and took a boat from Suzhou to Jiaxing, and then he saw a horror movie.

More than 40 members of the Shen clan were tied together with ropes, and they tried to destroy the division of fields, and all of them were arrested and sent to the mountains for mining and transformation.

"Killing a gentry is like killing a chicken?" Qian Qianyi muttered to himself.

I was cold all over my body and sweated on my forehead.

Qian Qianyi hurriedly took a boat to Hangzhou, where more homes were raided. He completely lost his arrogance and reserve, and after seeing Zhao Han, he knelt directly on the ground and shouted: "Changshu Qian Qianyi, meet Mr. Zhao, and congratulate Mr. Zhao on pacifying Jiangnan!" ”

"It's not flat yet, and Zhejiang hasn't finished occupying it." Zhao Han said with a smile.

Qian Qianyi said: "The soldiers in the town are strong, Tian Zheng has won the hearts of the people, and it is the people's desire to win Jiangnan. ”

Zhao Han smiled but did not speak, and did not ask Qian Qianyi to stand up.

Qian Qianyi could only continue to kneel and said: "Jiangnan Zhufu, the old decay still has a small name, and I ask the army to persuade officials from all over the country to surrender. ”

"Okay, you can persuade you to surrender." Zhao Han didn't want to fight, and in terms of the degree of resistance of the officers and soldiers in Jiangnan, it couldn't play a role in training troops at all, and the siege of the city was just a waste of time.

As for Qian Qianyi, after taking Jiangnan, he will be given a quiet civilian position, and he will not let this person take power anyway.
