Chapter 112 What do you use to fight me if you don't have money?
Six hours later.
The people at the foot of Wutai Mountain were full of voices, and tens of thousands of men, women, and children were indignant......
They are pounding the barrier.
"All go back, all go back, it's strictly forbidden to cross the fence!"
In the chaos, Ying Tianfu Tongzhi, who still had gauze on his face, howled.
Then because of the wound, he quickly covered his face in pain.
On either side of him were hundreds of archers and even minions, holding sticks to block the people who tried to rush through, but the latter were too numerous to have their defenses crumbling, and the reason for this confusion was simple: behind the barrier, there were stacks of treasure money at the site of the Open Day event, which was still taking place......
It's all at face value.
Men and women, young and old, have been able to receive the same in the past.
Consistent treasure banknote, this is a new banknote, at present, basically consistent banknote can buy more than two stones of brown rice.
And the seven-grade official moon is only seven and a half stones.
Who isn't crazy about this?
A family of five used to be able to get more than a seven-grade official monthly salary.
"Get out of the way, why don't you let it go?"
"Throw this dog officer aside!"
……
The people who swarmed forward shouted anxiously.
Those officials of the government and the archers struggled to support themselves, and the Tongzhi who had a painful face still covered his face.
"You don't even have a salary, what are you fighting for?"
Yang Feng sat on the Taishi chair, crossed Erlang's legs and held the teacup, and said to the archers.
The latter's anger was vented at once.
Then the defense line was instantly overwhelmed, and even the archers of the government simply rushed to the scene of the open day, and the unlucky Tongzhi was caught off guard, he was still covering his face and gasping in pain, and the defense line collapsed suddenly, and the swarming crowd directly washed him down. He curled up with his head in his hands, apparently experienced, and howled in terror in the crowd, and was swept aside, but there was a stinky ditch beside him, and he was saved from being trampled in.
But that image can be described as miserable.
"The surname is Yang, you instigate the people to revolt and incite the people to make trouble, I will sue you!"
He howled in the stinking gutter.
Yang Feng waved leisurely to the back.
Immediately after that, a group of righteous women under the age of eight immediately rushed towards Tongzhi with their special small hand crossbows, and the latter was so frightened that he quickly shut up, even if this is for these little goblins, it is also a crossbow, and it is no problem to shoot people at close range.
What's more......
Not even eight years old!
Murder is not illegal, and rebellion cannot be killed!
Eight years old is the line.
There is no punishment for any crime under the age of eight, there is no punishment for any crime between the ages of eight and ten, except for a few major crimes such as rebellion, and crimes between the ages of ten and fifteen do need to be punished, but they cannot be tried and punished, and can only be convicted on the basis of circumstantial evidence, and capital crimes must be strictly examined, and only from the age of 15 are they completely in accordance with the standard of adulthood.
So this group of goblins don't say they have that diplomatic immunity, but they don't have diplomatic immunity, and it's okay to kill him now according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty.
Then a leprechaun walked up to him.
Because Tongzhi was still in the ditch, the two were almost face-to-face.
The little goblin suddenly took out a wad of treasure money, and before he could understand it, the pile of treasure money was drawn in his face, and he tried to stand up angrily, and then four crossbows were pressed against him at the same time, and he was so frightened that he did not dare to move immediately. The little goblin looked at him and smiled innocently, but the pile of treasure money in his hand was drawn on the other side of his face, although his strength was very small, but because it was a wound, he still screamed in pain.
The little goblin didn't care, and continued to innocently slap him in the face with a treasure banknote.
Repeated pumping.
After drawing, the left side is drawn, and the right side is drawn.
That arrogance is simply madness.
"What is this?
Money!
If you don't have money, what are you going to do to fight me? ”
Ambassador Yang held the teacup and said with a villainous temperament.
Then he turned to the people.
"Folks, come back tomorrow, open for three days in a row, there will be money every day, and it will be opened irregularly in the future, as long as it is opened, there will be money!"
He shouted.
The people who were happily visiting with treasure money cheered, even those officials and archers and even small officials were inside, most of the small officials had no wages, only those who came from other places, so there was very little rice a month, and there were no local officials at all.
This is a consistent banknote, take one and the whole family will have no worries about food and clothing this month.
Who cares about anything else at this time.
"Look, that's the power of money!"
Yang Feng said.
"Then you have to have Your Majesty to support you, if it is not for Your Majesty's connivance, you will directly transfer soldiers and horses, whoever dares to break in will be killed as a disorder, and see who dares to take your money?"
Zhang Xianzong said disdainfully.
"That's why I have arrogant capital, backed by imperial power, holding banknotes, what qualifications do a few civil officials have to fight with me? Rules? This thing is only used to net flies and mosquitoes, but the net can't catch the falcon, not to mention the eagle falcon, even the finch can break through, they are still too naïve after all, thinking that if they master the rules, they are qualified to do whatever they want, but in fact, when others follow the rules, they are the rules, and when they don't follow the rules, they are a joke. ”
Yang Feng said.
"What do you want to say?"
Zhang Xianzong said suspiciously.
"It's okay, it's just a sigh."
Yang Feng said.
So these Confucian scholars led by Liu Sanwu are still too naïve.
Or that Zhu Yuanzhang's support for them over the years has given them an illusion, thinking that they can already rely on the rules to gain enough power.
In particular, the civil officials of the imperial examination were gradually taking control of the imperial court......
In the past, civil officials were not born in the imperial examination, after all, Li Shanchang, who started by Zhu Yuanzhang, must not have come out of the imperial examination, and even they were not Confucian students, Li Shanchang was born as a small official. Although the imperial examination was held in the early years of Hongwu, it was soon suspended because Zhu Yuanzhang found that the Confucian scholars were talking too much, and then it was not reopened until the eighteenth year of Hongwu, and this time it was the Confucian scholars who really poured into the court. Now this batch of civil officials in the imperial examination is already controlling the officialdom, the six departments, the magistrates, plus the secretary group of the Hanlin Academy, basically except for a few chief officials, the vast majority of the rest are already imperial examination officials.
The main ones that Zhu Yuanzhang killed before were not from the imperial examination.
Either the petty officials are promoted, or they are recruited.
Their purges naturally made way for the civil officials of the imperial examinations.
This was done by Zhu Yuanzhang on purpose.
To fully turn to the imperial examination, it is necessary to first clean up the old bureaucracy.
He was changing the Ming court from disorder in the past to order in the future, from non-institutionalization in the past to institutionalization in the future, establishing Confucianism in various places, and then providing him with Confucian students, and Confucian students entered the imperial court to be an official for him.
His officer.
And from generation to generation.
The Confucian scholars, however, began to fantasize that they could establish their ideal state.
The monarch hangs the arch, and the scholar rules the world.
But......
This is the era of imperial power!
The emperor is the only one.
In the end, the struggle between the civil officials of the imperial examination and the imperial power began in this way, and it was not until the fall of the Ming Dynasty that it was over, the Zhu family was gone, and the civil officials of the imperial examination could only be slaves under the butcher's knife of a foreign race, and Confucianism also became a slave family. In the future, he should tell Zhu Yuanzhang this story, I don't know if this initiator will be angry and half dead again, he shouldn't be aware of it now, he found that these Confucian students are also quite ambitious, and they should be after the north and south lists.
But by that time he was already old, and although he could still hold a knife, he didn't have time to solve it.
The north and south list is the spring of the thirtieth year of Hongwu.
He died the following spring.
Yang Feng looked at the carnival-like crowd in front of him, but he saw an acquaintance inside, he smiled and waved his hand, and Yao Guangxiao in the crowd bowed kindly......
"Master, are you in the capital again?"
Yang Feng looked at the demon monk who was walking towards him.
"Poor monks are monks, and they have always come to the north and south to visit high-ranking monks and study Buddhism."
Yao Guangxiao said.
Zhang Xianzong hurriedly got up and saluted.
He actually knows this demon monk, but Yao Guangxiao was assigned by Zhu Yuanzhang to Zhu Di, and his identity is not a secret, everyone knows that he is a close confidant of King Yan, at most he doesn't know that he has a restless soul.
It's no secret.
"I'll introduce you to a monk when I'm free!"
Yang Feng said with a smile.
Introduce Zhang Dingbian to him one day.
Look at what sparks this restless demon monk and a restless former hero can rub together.
They should have a common language.
"How many eminent monks does the ambassador recognize?"
Yao Guangxiao said unexpectedly.
He didn't know that this monk had a rebellious soul just like him.
"Of course I know, I know a lot of monks, before I also with a large group of monks together to play His Majesty the Emperor, ask His Majesty the Emperor for permission, by these monks to raise funds, build a sea boat, and then go to Tianzhu with the imperial envoys, to the West Heaven Buddha Kingdom to learn Buddhism. Moreover, His Majesty the Emperor has given permission, and it is estimated that by this time next year, you will be able to see the sea ships set sail, and in a year or two at most, you will be able to see them return with the Tianzhu Dharma.
At that time, let us witness the style of the Western Heavenly Buddha Kingdom together, and maybe we will bring a few Tianzhu monks with us. ”
Yang Feng said.
There was no obstacle to this plan in Zhu Yuanzhang's place.
Although it is true that Lao Zhu is not interested in Buddhism, he is very interested in contacting the Delhi Sultanate, especially after Yang Feng said that they have good horses there......
Of course, the key is not to pay for it.
There are high monks who are responsible for paying for it, and he sends a few messengers at most, and even the sailors who go to sea are recruited by the high monks, but when he returns, the ship will be returned to him, and he likes this kind of good thing for nothing. Therefore, the masters who have received the grace of the Holy Decree have begun to raise funds to build sea ships, and the plan is to ride the north wind to the south next winter.
Going to India in the winter and returning in early summer, as was the case with the Portuguese.
The whole journey is carried out with the help of monsoons and ocean currents.
You can make a round trip by sea in one year.
But because I have to go to Delhi, plus I have to go to those legendary holy places......
Although the Holy Land is only ruins.
But it will take at least two years.
Now good men and women from all over the south of the Yangtze River are enthusiastically participating in this grand event, and all the major temples are enthusiastically donating, and even those pious old ladies are donating with pension money, which makes Zhu Yuanzhang very faceless......
When you pay taxes, you complain one by one, and this kind of thing is enthusiastically donated.
It's clear that he's still too good for the masters.
"Amitabha, the ambassador's merits are immeasurable!"
Yao Guangxiao hurriedly said.
As a monk who was not devout enough to the Buddha, he behaved like this.
"King Yan hasn't returned to Beiping yet?"
Yang Feng asked.
"The poor monk is just a monk and doesn't ask about the world, but when the poor monk set off from Beiping, the king has indeed not returned."
Yao Guangxiao hurriedly said.
He was full of vigilance against Yang Feng.
The main thing is that this guy made him very messy, he couldn't guess what Yang Feng wanted to do, while telling him that King Yan would be the emperor, and at the same time instigating Zhu Yuanzhang to suppress the vassal king, and he was also close to Zhu Yunxi, no matter how he looked at it, it was not normal. Knowing that King Yan will be the emperor, of course he should be close to King Yan, but the reality is that this guy even robbed King Yan's woman, which is extremely bad in nature, and has caused public outrage among King Yan's subordinates, and the little princess's whistleblowing also caused King Yan to lose two generals. Nai Er Buhua and Alu Timur have been arrested, and they are being escorted to the capital, it is estimated that Ling Chi is coming, although they do want to defect, but in the final analysis, it is not because the future of King Yan is uncertain and he has lost the confidence to follow.
And the other vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty did not treat them as well as King Yan.
The future of continuing to stay in Daming is also uncertain.
In this case, instead of enduring the harsh laws in the Ming Dynasty, it is better to go to the grassland to be free, anyway, it is still minus 30 degrees.
It can be said that they were all forced.
Not only them, but even the generals of the other guards are also panicked, and there are already people who are secretly moving, trying to transfer away from the Yan King's guards, in the final analysis, for the guard generals, a vassal king with an uncertain future is obviously not worth following, everyone is the same military household everywhere, there is no need to be tied to the Yan King.
It's not difficult to transfer.
It can be said that His Majesty the Emperor is disintegrating the strength of King Yan with just a simple move.
And the culprit is Yang Feng.
"I heard that His Majesty intends to let King Yan command the army of the Wa Kingdom."
Yang Feng said.
This is actually already decided.
Zhu Yuanzhang has determined that Zhu Di will go to Xiguan City, and then assemble a large army there, and then Zhu Di will be the commander to conquer the Wa State, and the sailors led by Zhu Shou have also gone south, he and the sailors led by Yang Wen will reconcile, and jointly load supplies and soldiers in Taicang, and go north to North Korea after the spring change, as Zhu Di's deputy to crusade against the Wa State.
It is estimated that the decree was issued in these two days.
"Amitabha, the poor monk can only beg the Buddha to bless the king and triumph."
Yao Guangxiao said.
Of course, he was in a very messy mood at this time.
Let the King of Yan crusade against the Wa Kingdom, what if this crusade is completed, what if the King of Yan is simply moved to the Wa Kingdom? His Majesty the Emperor made it clear that he wanted to kick these vassal kings far away, and the King of Jin was almost kicked to the Western Regions, and the previous assassination of Yang Fengyu, to put it bluntly, was that the King of Jin was forced to protest to the emperor in this way. Although it was at the cost of being grounded, he also ensured the fiefdom and did not fall to the whole family moving to the Western Regions to eat sand, and now His Majesty the Emperor is playing this trick against King Yan again, so what should King Yan do? Also learn from the king of Jin and take drastic protests?
He raised his head very deeply, and then happened to see the strange smile on Yang Feng's face......
"Master, Kaichun Yang is also going north, are you interested in going along?"
Yang Feng said.
