Chapter 461: Don't let anyone go
Yishu Hazard paused and continued: "And ...... In Guanzhong and Henan and other places, the price of people has plummeted, and many people have sold countless children and girls, and the price is ...... It's not even a few liters of rice. "Huh
He said so, kowtowed, and said no more.
This news is shocking, but in fact it is not enough to talk about it.
But......
Although Zhu Di is a little mentally prepared.
He didn't know anything about the catastrophe, and he couldn't have it.
It's just that the situation is so serious, but it is beyond Zhu Di's imagination.
At most, he just thought that in such a situation, many people would seek personal gain and gain some benefits, and in the face of the catastrophe, if the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if the imperial court is purging with great fanfare, it may affect the outcome of the relief. Drunk
After all, now is the time for the imperial court to borrow from the officials and gentry of various prefectures and counties.
But what he said is that the nature has changed.
The anger in Zhu Di's heart was already boiling, and he sneered: "Is it true that everything investigated by the East Factory?" ”
Yisha naturally knew that Zhu Di would inevitably be angry, he was silent for a moment, but continued to kowtow: "It's true." ”
Zhu Di squinted his eyes slightly, and his eyes were gloomy, showing that he was in a bad mood at this time.
I saw him say coldly: "Okay, good!" I really didn't expect this, in this way, our Daming is also very powerful. I ask you, "Where is the grain?" ”
Also lost: "......" drunk
"Say!" Zhu Di said sharply.
Yishaha's body trembled slightly, and he said stiffly: "The slave doesn't know." ”
Zhu Di looked at Yang Rong and Jin Youzi angrily: "I ask you, do you know?" ”
Yang Rong and Jin Youzi, hearing these recitals, with their experience, they probably already know that what they played is true.
Because even if Dongchang wants to make it up, it will not be possible to say it so accurately.
What's more, this person has always been kind to people on weekdays, and unlike other eunuchs, he is not a person who is willing to cause trouble.
Yang Rong bowed down and said: "The minister will ask the three divisions to rush to Henan and other places to investigate thoroughly, and ask Your Majesty to ......."
Zhu Di said coldly with a bit of mockery: "Three divisions? Aren't these three divisions in league with them? ”
As soon as these words came out, Yang Rong suddenly felt that the problem was serious.
The so-called three divisions, that is, the three law divisions, that is, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Dali Temple and the Criminal Department.
Now that His Majesty has said this, it is actually equivalent to the last bit of trust, and it is all gone.
But who is to blame for this?
Yang Rong thought sadly, the opposition between the monarch and the minister, there is always a name, if it weren't for the past few years, he has always been unable to do anything, and nothing can be accomplished. In other words, originally they could only achieve fifty points, so-so, even if the emperor knew that everyone was capable of this, he could perfunctory the past.
After all, the monarch and the minister are companions, and without the hundred officials, this holy decree cannot leave the Forbidden City. Drunk
But with the Right Governor's Mansion as an example, the situation has become different, and people are taking the test of 90 points!
As the saying goes, there is no harm without contrast!
As a result, His Majesty became more and more strict with the officials, and the result of the harshness was precisely the more and more obvious opposition between the monarch and the minister.
The gentry after the hundred officials also shouted injustice, their original interests have been squeezed out, and today, they do not even want the last fig leaf, to some extent, or the backlash of this antagonism, or ...... It was some kind of threat from the beginning.
Zhu Di still roared: "Where did my grain go?" Tell me! East factory, Jinyiwei! ”
Yisha tried hard to lower his head and kowtow to the ground, still not daring to respond.
Zhu Di looked at Yang Rong and said sharply: "Go and ask, go and verify, and immediately go to the six departments to ask!" "Huh
Yang Rong settled down and said, "Obey the order, the minister will retire." ”
After that, he and Jin Youzi withdrew.
Zhu Di sat down at this time, but his face was still ugly.
Silence was restored in the temple.
Zhu Di leaned back in the chair, his eyes half-open and half-closed.
After half a ring, Zhu Di said, "Get up." ”
Yisha was frightened and stood up cautiously, but he was still hunched up, and he didn't dare to come out. Drunk
Zhu Di said slowly: "You slave, how dare you play tricks with me? ”
The effect of his words was astonishing.
Yisha looked like he was scattered, but he ...... He didn't seem to be as flustered as Fang Cai.
Zhu Di said again: "Since you know, why don't you take the initiative to report it, but you deliberately make a fool of yourself in front of me, and wait for me to ask, and you will report it again?" ”
Yisha stammered: "Slave maid...... The slave is afraid of ......"
The corners of Zhu Di's lips hooked and sneered: "Afraid? I knew that I would be angry, so I didn't dare to report it in private, but I deliberately stopped talking in front of Yang Rongren and others, waiting for me to ask, right? This matter has nothing to do with Wenyuan Pavilion, if you say it in private, I will be angry with you, but with them, I will take this anger out on them. ”
Speaking of this, Zhu Di's gaze became a little colder, and said, "You slave, it seems that you are...... Oversmart. "Huh
Zhu Di's tone of voice at this time was relatively calm, but the four words of being too smart were definitely a very harsh evaluation.
He has been in the palace for a long time, and he is naturally not an ordinary person, how to serve Zhu Di well and grasp His Majesty's thoughts and temperament is something he is very familiar with.
It's just that I didn't expect that today it was directly debunked by Zhu Di.
This kind of thing is extremely serious to say that it is serious, after all, as the most trusted eunuch around him, he dares to play tricks with the emperor, isn't this looking for death?
Zhu Di originally expected that he would be distraught and kowtow to beg for mercy.
But he didn't have the timidity of Yang Rong and the others when he was there, but said calmly: "Your Majesty's words, the slaves and maids dare not bear it." The slave and maid have served Your Majesty for so many years, doesn't Your Majesty know the nature of the slave and maid? Your Majesty is such a wise person, how dare a slave or maid play tricks in front of Your Majesty. When it comes to scheming, it is His Royal Highness the King of Wuhu County. ”
When Zhu Di heard this, his face sank again, and he looked very unsightly. Drunk
Yizha suddenly increased his courage and said: "Your Majesty, the matter of Henan and Guanzhong, Dongchang can find out, can't Jinyiwei find out?" But there was no movement on the Jinyi guard's side, just to see that the slave was honest. I know that when the slave and maid know, they will definitely report it. But has Your Majesty ever thought about how the slave and maid would look at it in the eyes of the people of the world? ”
Hearing this, Zhu Di raised his eyebrows deeply and fell into deep thought.
Yizha continued: "The slave maid is just a eunuch, in the eyes of the world, it is cheap, and it is difficult to hear...... A eunuch like a slave maid, although he is loved by His Majesty, has some strength. But in any case, he is just a thief who harbors evil intentions. ”
When Zhu Di heard this, his face softened slightly.
He knew that Yisha still had his own opinions, and immediately continued: "You go on. ”
The slave and maid opened their mouths, which means that this matter was provoked by the slave and maid first. What is being played today is a matter of great importance, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it shakes the foundation of the country, so the people of the world will inevitably think that it is the slaves and maids who want to frame some people, so they do such things and say such things. Even in the eyes of the reader, this has become a contest between gentlemen and eunuchs. ”
Zhu Di snorted coldly: "A eunuch is a eunuch, but a gentleman is not a gentleman." "Huh
Yisha said: "The world is like this, people do not evaluate people according to their true good or bad, but according to a person's background, to determine a person's good or bad. The slave and the maid have been slaves and maids for so many years, and even on the surface, they are respected by some people, but the slaves and maids are very clear, and those who laugh at the slaves and maids do not treat people like slaves and maids as monsters. ”
Zhu Di listened to these self-deprecating words, his expression was a little moved, and he said, "You continue to talk about serious things." ”
Yisha said: "The slave maid thinks that the king of Wuhu County did this on purpose. ”
Zhu Di didn't get angry again because of this, but asked rhetorically: "What do you mean...... Zhang Qing's family, he is still afraid of things? ”
Yishu said: "It's hard to say that the slave and maid are not roundworms of His Royal Highness the King of Wuhu County after all." But...... Since the slave and maid thought of this layer, they naturally had to think that it was good for the slave and maid to open this mouth, and also in front of the ministers, only in this way could they not only teach His Majesty to know the real situation, but also take a look at what medicine was sold in the gourd of His Royal Highness the King of Wuhu County. ”
Zhu Di's face had completely softened: "In this way, it's not easy for you?" ”
Yishu said: "The lives of slaves and maids belong to Your Majesty, and they are Your Majesty's cattle and horses, what is this?" The slave and maid were just thinking, the matter had reached this point, and the slave and maid stood up to expose it, and if those people pointed the finger at the slave and maid, the slave and maid would have nothing to fear. "Huh
"It's just...... If you do this, you can share your Majesty's worries, or you can make the King of Wuhu ...... It's also good to share some of the stress. His Royal Highness the King of Wuhu County has always been loyal to His Majesty, and his intentions are so obvious this time, and in Henan and other places, such a thing has happened, and next, I am afraid that it will not be peaceful. ”
Zhu Di's expression gradually became solemn again, his face was cold, and his eyes flashed with coldness.
He is old, although he is no longer the hot-tempered man he was at the beginning, but when he learns these things, although he is not angry, he has a deeper worry.
I'm still here, dare to do this, how dare they do this?
So he said coldly: "These people ...... With such a big guts, is it a disadvantage for my sword? ”
Yisha thought for a while and said, "The slave maid thinks ...... They were lucky, and they expected His Majesty to throw a rat trap. Originally, there was a shortage of food in the world now, and people's hearts were fluctuating, if the court made any more moves, I was afraid that it would really be full of smoke. Moreover, the so-called law does not hold the public accountable, there are many people involved in this case, this is by no means one person or two can succeed, the participants, not 10,000 but 8,000, Your Majesty wants to thoroughly investigate one by one, how easy is it to say? ”
Zhu Di couldn't help but be disappointed: "There are not 10,000 but 8,000, and these are all reasonable readers...... Don't...... Is it all like this? "Huh
People's hearts are so sinister that even the hard-hearted Zhu Di can feel such naked evil. Zhu Di, who kills people like mustard, also feels chilled, Zhu Di really finds it hard to believe such a fact.
Although he doesn't like this group, he never believes that people will become beasts when they read books.
Yishu said: "The East Factory, in fact, ...... In fact, there are some recitals...... Slaves...... Know something. ”
Zhu Di said impatiently: "Don't hide it." ”
Yi lost Ha said: "According to the Dongchang report, in Kaifeng, there is a gentry, surnamed Wang, speaking of which, he has not received the grace of the country, his ancestors, originally the doctor of the Yuan Dynasty, scholarly family, and now, this person named Wang Chengzhi, after seeing the disaster, starvation all over the place, in the heart of the unbearable, so with the people in the clan to discuss, the old people in the clan, is also a good person, and finally decided to put grain. ”
"Is there any such Coats?" Zhu Di showed a bit of appreciation.
"After the grain was released, there were indeed thousands of people who came to hear the wind, but soon these grains were exhausted, coupled with the chaos of the famine year, the thieves in the vicinity also heard that there was grain here, and they also killed it overnight, and the final result was ...... "drunk."
Yishu Ha paused, his face showed anger and sadness, and said word by word: "The Wang family suffered, a few people died, there was no food at home, and the price of food continued to skyrocket, although there was still some silver at home, but it was impossible to buy a few rations, and within two months, the Wang family could only help the old and the young, and gave up their ancestral homeland, and had to work with the displaced people to find food everywhere." Heard...... Of his four sons, two died, and three daughters, one of whom had long since been married, and one of whom had been separated, and the other had survived, but it seemed that he had been sick and died. As for the rest of the family...... Most of the same, they were separated, starved to death, or encountered thieves...... Afterward...... I heard that it was Xiucai from a certain place who recognized him, so he took some money and food to settle him. But like this, his family ...... It has been completely dispersed, and the family business for many generations is almost gone, and the land of the family has to be sold at a low price, to the point that there is no tile in life and no place to be buried in death. ”
Zhu Di listened, and felt cold all over his body.
Yisha sighed and continued: "Actually, people like the Wang family are not nothing, when is there no such person? They are also scholars, but also gentry, the heart of the world, but also the common people, every time there is a catastrophe, they will inevitably give birth to compassion, but the slave and maid dare to say, such a person...... There is almost no good end, even if you are lucky, a catastrophe will break your muscles and bones. ”
"But Your Majesty...... Those gentry who hoarded grain, used it to fall into the well, and annexed the land of the victims, but they made a lot of money by taking advantage of disasters again and again. is also a gentry, a person like the Wang family, from a gentry to a homeless, the gentry next door, but the land has doubled, ten years, twenty years, fifty years, a hundred years, Your Majesty ...... Is there still a good gentry like the Wang family? ”
Zhu Di was speechless for a while.
When Yisha said this, his expression was a little excited, and he said: "The slave is a Tatar, although she has no knowledge, but she also knows how to do it, isn't this the case on the grassland?" Kind-hearted people, ruined and ruined, people with hearts like snakes and scorpions, but through snowstorms again and again, they get great wealth, such things, such people, there have been in the past, there are now, and there will be in the future. Slaves...... is a eunuch, in this life, no matter how beautiful he is in front of people, but in fact...... It is the castrated cattle and horses in the grassland, the slaves and maids are in the grassland, they are the children of the slave households, and they are also slaves and maids when they enter the customs. ”
"Originally, the affairs of the foreign court, the slave and the maid did not dare to say much, what is the slave and the maid, why should they point fingers at the affairs of the court, if Emperor Taizu Gao is here, the slave and the maid must be broken into thousands of pieces." Drunk
But the slave maid still wants to say that in all dynasties, whether it is the grassland or the Guannei, a kind person like the Wang family cannot gain a foothold, and those who stay and annex the land of the Wang family, the herds of cattle and sheep in the family, and the fertile land must be the person whose heart is like iron and stone. The so-called righteousness is not in charge of wealth, and compassion is not in charge of soldiers, this is the truth. Therefore, the slave maid felt that the new policy of the Taiping Mansion could come to this day, not because His Royal Highness the King of Wuhu County had any skills, but really ...... This Taiping Mansion can at least give a benevolent person like the Wang family at least a way out. There is so much land in the world, and it is better to ...... than if you eat my land today, or you will annex mine tomorrow People have their own fields......"
Zhu Di's eyes widened, and he also lost his eyes.
He was also busy bowing down: "The slave and maid are dead, and the slave and maid are talking more." ”
Zhu Di narrowed his eyes again, his eyes seemed to flicker, and he said with a bit of sincerity: "People like the Wang family, if you want to find them, the world can be unfair, and I can't be unfair!" ”
"Yes." Yisha said: "The slave and maid must do their best to find people like the Wang family and give them proper placement." ”
"You can just do it." Zhu Di said: "I can trust you. ”
Yisha said hesitantly: "But...... Those who stocked up the grain, and those who swallowed up the money and food...... "drunk."
Zhu Di said slowly: "It's not your business, you yourself know that your dogs in Dongchang are useless, and I don't plan to point at them." ”
Yi Lost: "......"
Zhu Di paced slowly, and then said slowly: "Zhang Qing...... Now that I know about it, I know this guy, this guy...... There is no room for sand in his eyes, and he can't see any of his own stinky problems, but he is also sharp-eyed at those people's problems, and he should be taught to solve them! ”
After a pause, he continued: "Thou hast preached my will, and instructed him to distinguish between good and bad, and not to harm the innocent, but never to spare any thief who has stolen my grain or hoarded it!" ”
also lost Hadao; "Slave and maid go now."
Zhu Di said: "There are still ......"
He looked thoughtful and said, "On the bright side, I still have to send a will to let the third division investigate this matter." "Huh
Yishu said: "Your Majesty...... The slave maid thought ...... Three Divisions...... It may not be in league with them, but ...... I'm afraid that I may not be willing to kill the killer, at most...... Find a few people to resentence and give His Majesty an explanation......"
Zhu Di said: "Of course I know! I know, they also know it, I want to see now how Zhang Anshi shares my worries. As for these three divisions, they are just one name. ”
Yisha suddenly realized, so he said, "The slave understands." ”
