Chapter 462: Zhang Anshi attacks
He also lost his order and went to Zhang Anshi's place.
It's just that this time is very special, and Yisha left the palace in the middle of the night.
Looking at this guy's sneaky appearance, Zhang Anshi had to wear a new one, and asked him to go to the main hall of the palace.
Then he said: "No wonder people say that the factory guard is pervasive, this factory is in front of the guard, and the east factory has this reputation, which shows that this must be your father-in-law's teaching." My father-in-law is good! ”
Yizha said: "Hugh wants to gossip, there is a message from His Majesty." ”
Zhang Anshi restrained the smile on his face at this time, and said with a straight face: "Please announce it." ”
He also lost his words: "Edict: Henan, Guanzhong, Huguang and other places are in an emergency, suspected of traitors making trouble, Zhang Qing got the order, set up a secret investigation, mobilized Jinyi guards, etc., to copy the party, Qin Ci'er has the right to cut first and then play, there must be no mistake, Qinzai!" ”
The sermon was brief.
But the bigger the matter, the shorter the message.
After hearing this, Zhang Anshi immediately understood the holy will.
Your Majesty's side should have received the report from Dongchang.
Apparently furious.
That's why I decided to let Zhang Anshi appear.
Zhang Anshi frowned.
Yishu said: "Your Majesty also knows that it is difficult. ”
Zhang Anshi sat down and said, "Father-in-law Yisha, what else did Your Majesty say?" ”
"The most difficult thing now is that there are so many people involved, and the so-called law does not blame the public. What's more, now there are disasters in various places, and the disasters are like fire, and if this continues, I don't know how many people starve to death every day, and they also rely on this, thinking that the imperial court is a rat taboo, after all, at this juncture, it is even more unfavorable to the relief. ”
"What Your Majesty wants is not to teach the victims to starve to death, but also to teach these thieves to die without a place to bury, and to ensure that no one is wronged for them. Therefore, this thing must be done quickly and accurately......"
Zhang Anshi nodded and said: "Your Majesty is really Shengming, one word has broken the heavens, you have to be accurate, you have to be fast, and you have to catch them all, these three are difficult, it's really too difficult." ”
Yishaha glanced at Zhang Anshi deeply and said, "Now...... The scariest thing is...... The treasury is already running out of money and food, so if you can't recover the stolen goods...... I'm just afraid ......"
Zhang Anshi raised his eyebrows and said: "In this way, isn't this as difficult as climbing to the sky?" ”
"It's really hard to get to the top." Yishu Ha Zhengse said: "It is precisely because this matter is difficult, as difficult as ascending to the sky, that His Majesty hopes that His Royal Highness the King of Wuhu County can do his best." This matter is not trivial, and if it is done well, it is the luck of the common people. But if it is not done well, then it ...... Shake the country's foundation, starve everywhere, traitors and thieves, can be wanton. ”
After a pause, he continued: "Your Majesty also said that this matter ...... Although entrusted to His Royal Highness the King of Wuhu County, he also knew that this matter was as difficult as reaching the sky, His Royal Highness only needed to do his best, and if it was really not successful, he would never add to the crime. ”
Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty has the grace of knowing me, the so-called king wants to be humiliated, I will fight for my life, and I will do my best to ask my father-in-law to return to Your Majesty, Zhang Anshi is willing to go to the soup and fire." ”
Yisha nodded with satisfaction, secretly relieved, Zhang Anshi's words finally allowed him to go back to the errand.
Yisha said: "What is Your Highness going to do?" ”
Zhang Anshi said: "My father-in-law is teaching me to do things? ”
Yisha laughed dryly: "No, no, no, don't get me wrong, the slave maid means, Your Highness...... These chaotic ministers and thieves, all over Guanzhong, Henan, Huguang, these thousands of miles of land, the food they hide, I don't know where, His Royal Highness can be unimpeded here in Zhili, but once it goes deep into the prefectures and counties of the world, I am afraid that it will be difficult to make a difference, although the Jinyiwei manpower is a lot, but it is really a place where the disaster is urgent, involving four provinces, 27 state capitals, more than 350 counties, tens of thousands of markets, even if all the Jinyiwei are scattered, it is just a needle in a haystack......"
"Your Highness, Your Majesty and the slaves and maids are worried about this, and the affairs of the world ...... The worst thing is that the law does not blame the public, tens of thousands of thieves, colluding with each other, no, it can even be said that they have not colluded at all, but they have a tacit understanding with each other, but they do the worst things as if they have made an appointment. ”
Yisha is a smart man.
Here's ...... The biggest problem is that these people are really not connected.
They just do the same thing in their own self-interest.
If it is a chaotic party, it is easier to deal with it, as long as one backbone is seized and severely tortured, the party can be tortured and questioned, and then they can be wiped out.
But the current situation is the opposite, if you catch one, ten, a hundred people, it is useless, you kill their whole family, and you can't find anyone else.
What's more, if you really directly start killing, the usefulness is actually limited, and the more you kill, the more people are panicked, after all, they are local snakes, controlling local speech, if at this time, secretly arrange minions and encourage the displaced people to rebel, then the situation may be even worse.
So many homeless people, it is a dry firewood, just a spark is missing, the homeless people are closed to news, there is no outside channel, only know that they are hungry, know that their wives are separated, know that they are hungry, and now the reason why these provinces are still under the Ming Dynasty is precisely because these 'chaotic ministers and thieves' need the signboard of the Ming Dynasty to deter the displaced people in the name of representing the imperial court.
But what if these people don't want the signboard of the Ming Dynasty?
At that time, countless displaced people were coerced, and even if the officials and soldiers could easily suppress them, they were ...... The displaced people who were supposed to be given relief have now become rioters who want to be killed.
So...... What else do you need? simply sent officials and troops to slaughter everyone in these provinces.
Instead of giving the people food and drink and teaching them to live, the result is one step in place, teaching no one in these provinces, and solving the disaster.
This is also the reason why Zhu Di believes that the situation is very critical, because no matter what choice he makes, it may cause unbearable consequences.
The world is surnamed Zhu, it is his Zhu Di's, and others have no obligation to maintain it, but Zhu Di has.
Don't look at Zhu Di as a big boss, and he can be regarded as a murderer on weekdays without blinking, but he must not bear the result of things getting worse.
Otherwise...... The Ming Dynasty, even if it can be maintained through the pressure of the officials and the army, but the hearts of the scholars and gentry in the world are not cared for, even if the hearts of ordinary people are lost, then it is really a shaky society, and the sky is falling apart.
Zhang Anshi thought for a while and said, "In any case, please rest assured that Your Majesty and father-in-law have the way of this king." ”
Yizha nodded: "Then let's wish His Highness success, once successful, it will really be Ze by the people, and then he will have to be a great minister." ”
Zhang Anshi was unhappy and said, "You curse me? ”
Yisha felt that what he just said was obviously a good thing, why did he make Zhang Anshi unhappy?
He shook his head and said, "No, no, no, this is from the bottom of my heart." ”
Zhang Anshi said: "You say that you are a very human minister, I will be afraid in my heart." ”
When Yisha heard this, he didn't think that letting Zhang Anshi eat deflated would make him happy, but instead glanced at Zhang Anshi sourly.
continued: "Your Highness was raised by the crown prince, and His Majesty and the prince are members of a family, and others are extremely popular ministers, so they may cause trouble, but what is Your Highness worried about?" When Emperor Taizu Gao, he killed so many heroes, but his righteous sons Li Wenzhong, Mu Ying, He Wenhui, etc., which one did not die at the end of his life, and the heirs are still suffering from grace......"
Yishu pursed his lips and continued: "In addition, there is also the adopted son of Emperor Taizu Gao, Ping'an, when Emperor Taizu Gao was there, Ping'an has always been trusted and reused, and regarded him as a minister who supports Gu, after that, Your Majesty is difficult, Ping'an has repeatedly defeated Your Majesty at the behest of Emperor Jianwen, and taught Your Majesty several times that His Majesty was almost in danger, but in the end, His Majesty ascended the throne, didn't he do anything with him, and still wanted to make him the commander of Beiping, and soon he was promoted to the governor of the Houfu Prefecture? ”
Zhang Shi'an knew that Ping An was a famous general of the Jianwen Dynasty and the adopted son of Emperor Taizu Gao, Zhu Di was martyred, and almost all of the troops that quelled the rebellion were the adopted sons and adopted grandsons of Emperor Taizu Gao. For example, Li Jinglong, his father Li Wenzhong, is the adopted son of Emperor Taizu Gao, and Ping'an, who is also an adopted son.
To a certain extent, in Emperor Taizu Gao's plan, the heroes are not trustworthy, but the adopted sons are trustworthy.
Therefore, after his death, the military power of the entire Ming army was controlled by the adopted sons of Emperor Taizu Gao. Mu Ying guarded the southwest, and Li Wenzhong's son Li Jinglong and Ping'an were in the court.
Yishaha mentioned these allusions, in fact, to comfort Zhang Anshi and teach him to rest assured.
You see, people like Emperor Taizu Gao still talk about family affection, not to mention Your Majesty, Your Highness, don't worry, hurry up and work hard.
Zhang Anshi said: "But I heard that although Ping An was entrusted with an important task, one day, although His Majesty temporarily forgave Ping An, he saw Ping An's name when he was reading the chapter, and said to the left and right: "Is Ping Bao'er still alive?" After Ping An found out, he committed suicide with interest.
"Nonsense!" Yishu Ha was so angry that he was about to jump up: "Who made this rumor?" Why is it that every time, there are rumors that make up rumors? Your Highness, it's okay for others to talk nonsense, but you are the heart of Your Majesty, don't you know? After His Majesty ascended the throne, he appointed Ping'an as the commander of Beiping, what is this place in Beiping, it is His Majesty's Longxing Land, in order to show that he does not care about his past suspicions, his own fundamental place, let him come to guard it safely, how can he still retaliate against him after so many years? ”
"This peace is the righteous son of Emperor Taizu Gao, and it is also the righteous brother of His Majesty, Your Majesty started with Jing Nan, and it was in the name of Emperor Taizu Gao to restore the ancestral system, but he killed his own righteous brother, in addition to teaching the world to laugh at Your Majesty, what good is it to Your Majesty?"
"Ah...... This ......" Zhang Anshi said embarrassedly: "I just heard what people said." ”
He gritted his teeth and said, "Who is spreading rumors?" ”
Zhang Anshi had no choice but to say: "Everyone in the market says so!" ”
Yisha shook his head, but didn't say anything more, and went back to the palace immediately.
In the building, although it was late at night, it was brightly lit, and Zhu Di did not sleep all night, just waiting for the resumption of the purpose.
"Your Majesty."
Under the candlelight, Zhu Di's tired face shone brightly.
Zhu Di said in a calm tone: "What do you say? ”
"His Royal Highness the King of Wuhu County said that the king is worried about the humiliation of his ministers, and he must do his best to go to the soup and fire."
Zhu Di sighed: "I really worked hard for him, and now I am ordered to be in danger, I am afraid that he will have to work for some days." In that case, why did you come back so late? ”
Yishaha looked at Zhu Di's face before saying, "Zhang Anshi and the slave maid discussed some things. ”
"What?"
Yishu said: "Anyway, somehow, while talking, His Highness suddenly talked about General Ping'an." ”
mentioned this peace, Zhu Di seemed very unhappy, the scene of being hung and beaten by Ping An at the beginning is vivid.
Yizha didn't dare to hide it, so he said: "His Royal Highness the King of Wuhu County said that it is your Majesty who is safe...... Death ......"
Zhu Di's eyebrows jumped, and the whole person almost jumped up, and said angrily: "He is spreading rumors, only a shameless person would say such a thing!" ”
Yisha said truthfully: "It's not that His Royal Highness the King of Wuhu County is spreading rumors, he said that he heard about it in the market." ”
Zhu Di snorted coldly and said, "I don't know him yet? How can the people in the market think of this? Only this guy spends his days thinking about these nonsense things, and he also talks about it with a nose and eyes! ”
Yisha was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak.
Peaceful...... Forced to death......
After Zhu Di was angry, he suddenly calmed down: "I understand what he meant, is he scared?" ”
Yisha hesitated for a moment and said, "It seems to be." ”
Zhu Di rolled his eyes and said, "This coward, it's really a rat!"
Ben wanted to say something, his lips pursed, and finally said, "How is his eldest son Zhang Changsheng lately?" ”
He was stunned for a moment, feeling that His Majesty's thinking had changed too suddenly, and subconsciously said: "The slave doesn't know." ”
Zhu Di sighed with emotion: "The queen is old, I am busy with the world's major affairs, she is in the palace, there is no one to speak, King Zhao and King Han are thousands of miles away, and now they are my grandson, and now they are also working in the Taiping Mansion, hey...... Let Changsheng enter the palace, Zhang Anshi is diligent in the king's order every day and can't be educated, this Changsheng is let me and the queen to educate, and in this way, the queen can relieve some loneliness. ”
Although Yisha was stunned, he still immediately responded: "The slave will go tomorrow...... Message. ”
Zhu Di said: "Discuss this with the East Palace in advance, see what the princess means, and then let the princess ask the Xu family, if the immortal mother has no objections, the matter will be decided." ”
Yishu said: "Yes." ”
At this time, Yizha also reacted to something in hindsight, and thought to himself...... It turns out that rumors are really useful? Zhang Anshi's kid lacks great virtue, can he still get benefits?
Born with such thoughts, I couldn't help but feel sorry for myself.
It's the same person, he cut his eggs, he has been loyal for decades, he never makes a little mistake, he can barely be regarded as a heart, but look at people......
Zhu Di seemed to be angry in his heart, and at this time he couldn't help but scold: "Next time, teach Zhang Anshi to shut up for me, and don't talk about right and wrong in the palace every day!" He likes to spread rumors so much, he has the ability to quarrel with the reader, how did he die when he got to the reader! Hmph, every day I search my intestines and scrape my stomach, I know that in the palace, I see that he is not even as good as King Yin! ”
Yishu hurriedly said: "Yes, the slave has written it down, Your Majesty, it's late at night......"
Zhu Di scolded for a while, seemed to be angry a little, waved his hand and said: "How can I sleep, if what Dongchang really plays, I am afraid that every tea will starve to death, and I don't know how many soldiers and civilians will starve to death, let alone those who starve." At this time, I am afraid that when I am mentioned, I will grit my teeth with hatred. I took out money and food, but I didn't exchange it for peace in the world, what did I get in exchange, people's hearts were lost, people's hearts were lost! My money and food are all fed to those rebellious ministers and thieves......"
Yisha had no choice but to keep his mouth shut and silently listen to Zhu Di's complaints.
…………
Early the next morning.
Zhang Anshi summoned the people of Changshi Mansion, Jinyiwei, the Ministry of Maritime Affairs, and Qixia Commercial Bank to meet.
The crowd arrived early and whispered in the temple.
Until Zhang Anshi hurried in, everyone was immediately silent.
Zhang Anshi only glanced at everyone, and then said resolutely: "Have you read the briefing?" Now that the situation is known, ...... Needless to say, the disaster is like fire, and from now on, everyone is moving. ”
Yang Pu was the first to stand up and said, "Please show your Highness." ”
Zhang Anshi was not verbose, and said directly: "On the one hand, in the order of Zhili, the state capitals of Zhili are required to advocate economy in order to save food, starting with my county palace, and all expenses will be halved." Except for the model camp and the water village, all grain consumption will be reduced by 20%. ”
When everyone heard this, some people couldn't help but frown.
Reducing two percent is actually not much, now everyone can eat enough, and occasionally there is waste, and the reduction of two percent must be starving, but ......
Zhu Jin stood up and said, "Your Highness, our food ...... It's enough to deal with it, and even if it is saved, it won't save much food. On the contrary, after giving this order, I am afraid that it will cause people's hearts to fluctuate. ”
Zhang Anshi laughed: "I just want people's hearts to float, and I want everyone to know that even if I am directly subordinate, I am actually short of food." Okay, then, transfer grain to me, no matter what method is used, whether it is water transportation, land transportation, whether it is by carriage or steam locomotive, or by carrying burdens, in short, or from all over the river, or from the official road, all of them will transport grain to the four provinces, states and counties. Manpower...... Let's go straight to bear it, and in each state and county, set up a small banner of brocade clothes and guards to be responsible for the guard, and pay the silver to ensure that there is food. ”
Zhu Jin's face was embarrassed and said: "Now the grain in the provinces is still high...... We've shipped food to ......."
Zhang Anshi said with a smile: "Okay, that's it, anyway, there is only one thing, that is, I want everyone to see the food, and see that there is a lot of food, we have to do whatever it takes." Ladies and gentlemen, this is an extraordinary time, and now, in every tea we speak, there are people starving to death! ”
Speaking of this, he paused, but the smile on his face was put away, and he turned to a straight tone: So...... Now is the time for everyone to be in the same boat, and at this moment, everything is premised on ensuring relief. Okay, call it over, give me a hard job! ”
