The spectacular scene of more than 1,000 people collectively playing the board announced Lao Zhu's final verdict.

It also opened the anger of the southern gentry.

Of course, if they are angry, they will be angry, they have been angry with Zhu Yuanzhang for thirty years, and Lao Zhu doesn't care about their anger, Lao Zhu just wants them to understand that even if he is old......

Your grandfather is still your grandfather.

As for Liu Sanwu, he actually died in the edict the next day.

"Song Zhong really didn't use torture, he is already in his eighties, at this age, if he uses a little punishment, it is estimated that he will be directly angry, Song Zhong is not stupid, it is very troublesome to really torture to death, after all, he is also a famous minister, just let him sit next to him and watch Zhang Xin and others torture. No one expected that he was fine at the beginning, but he actually died the next day, Song Zhong suspected that he had already taken some medicine in advance, after all, at his age, let alone what medicine he was taking, even if he ate the wrong thing, it would be easy to choke.

But this one is not easy to check.

As long as it's not highly poisonous, it's hard to find anything even by dissecting.

Anyway, now the outside is saying that he was tortured to death by Jinyiwei.

And it is said that it is Yun Xi's command.

said that Yun Xi had always wanted to kill him because he was Yun Wen's teacher, and this time he just took this opportunity to partner with you, wronged him for protecting Nanfang Juzi, and put him in prison for Song Zhong to be killed.

is also colorful, even how the two of you conspired, comparable to Qin Hui and his wife. ”

The little princess said.

"He's spewing the blood of me and the imperial grandson to death!"

Yang Feng said.

"But it's still that problem, as long as my father doesn't change the emperor's grandson, then their efforts will be in vain, no matter how much they toss, it's useless, even if all the Jiangnan gentry support Yun Wei, they don't count, and this will only make my father even more unwilling to change."

"What if they confirm that your dad can't be replaced, so the dog jumps off the wall?"

"Rebellion?"

The little princess smiled.

"Behind Yunxi is Lan Yu and the others, what can they do as a group of literati?

They dare to rebel, and Lan Yu has to die of laughter.

Finally, I can rob money and women like in the past. ”

She said.

Yang Feng touched her dog's head and smiled without saying a word......

Now is not the past, the confrontation in Shanxi has proved that if the local confrontation against the imperial court, it is fully capable of doing it with concerted efforts, the popularization of new firearms has skyrocketed the value of civilian force, in the past, a fierce general like Lan Yu could run rampant on the battlefield, but now he has to dodge whenever there is a rapid-fire cannon on the opposite side. And what the southern gentry can do is not just a rapid-fire cannon, Shanxi folk can master the casting of new artillery and arquebus manufacturing in a very short time, so how long does it take for the southern gentry?

The best steel industry in Daming is in Suzhou, Fujian and not Shanxi.

Sugang Jiantie.

In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, Sugang was transferred to Wuhu.

But until the end of the Ming Dynasty, Jiantie was the most expensive variety of iron.

The largest iron-smelting base is in Jiangxi, where Jiangxi occupies three of the country's thirteen government-run iron-smelting institutes, and more than one-fifth of the government-run output is there.

The largest private sector is in Guangdong.

Not to mention the population density in the south, the economy is developed and the food is abundant, it can be said that as long as the southern gentry can form an alliance to support Zhu Yunwen, he is really hopeful. In addition, the main thing is that he has no choice, as long as his grandfather dies, his best result is to go to the Fengyang High Wall and be imprisoned to death.

As long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will give it a go.

However, Liu Sanwu and others were not necessarily purely to protect the interests of Confucianism, it was probably the confrontation in Shanxi that made them see the possibility of local confrontation with the imperial court, and tried to use the contradiction between the north and the south to mobilize the common hatred of the southern gentry and then really confront the imperial court when necessary. They also use Zhu Yunwen, after all, this kind of thing needs a banner, so they have spared no effort to gild Zhu Yunwen over the years to create his image as a model of Confucian morality.

The purpose is to use him when necessary.

Benefits!

Shanxi, however, by confronting the imperial court, wanted to open up industry and commerce for itself.

So why can't the southern provinces?

Don't they want to?

Zhu Yuanzhang has refused to completely open up overseas trade until now, don't they want to get rich? The tea monopoly in various places is still maintained strongly, don't they want to let the gentry get rich like Shanxi?

And then there's the banking sector.

Don't they want to liberalize the banking sector?

They are not stupid, how happy Yang Feng has been playing all these years, why can't they play, isn't it that Zhu Yuanzhang can restrict them but can't restrict Yang Feng? If they didn't have any restrictions, wouldn't they be able to open banks, factories, or mines? So they are waiting, waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang to breathe, and then support the emperor under their control.

Zhu Yunxi can't.

Although he also encouraged industry and commerce, the problem was that he had a military clique behind him.

He would be a strong emperor.

If nothing else, he will definitely not let go of the banking industry.

Overseas trade, he is most likely official-run, even if it is not official-run, it is also a partnership with Yang Feng, playing the banking model, Yang Feng monopolies, but most of the profits go to the imperial court.

So there is a need for a weak emperor, and an imperial grandson who can be swayed by the gentry.

What a great conspirator these guys have!

Liu Sanwu is not important, he is a person who pushes out to die, anyway, he doesn't care about death in his eighties, as long as death is valuable, but if this is the case, Zhu Yunwen should already have a team around him......

"Is there any relationship between that military department Shangshu Qi Tai and Zhu Yunwen?"

Yang Feng said suddenly.

He almost forgot that Qi Tai was already the secretary of the military department at this time.

"Qi Tai, I didn't pay attention to him."

The little princess said.

"Staring at him, there must be another group of people around Zhu Yunwen who are giving advice, Huang Zicheng and Fang Xiaoru can be sure, but neither of them has real power, they must find someone with real power, and Qi Tai is just right. Moreover, among the current several major ministers of the imperial court, two northerners can rule out that Zheng Yi and Yan Zhenzhi were not born in the imperial examination, and the Confucian scholars may not look down on them, and the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry are useless. The rest is nothing more than Ru Yu and the three of them, Ru Yu is the head of the Wenchen, but he is an old slippery head, and he is not from the imperial examination, Zhu Yunwen can't dare to believe him, as for Yu Xin is from Fengyang, not counting their gang. The only one left is Qi Tai, who was born in the imperial examination, and the secretary of the military department holds real power. ”

The more Yang Feng said, the more he felt that Qi Tai was suspicious, not because of the original history, but because if Zhu Yunwen really wanted to seize the throne by force after Zhu Yuanzhang's death, he must have something to rely on.

Before that, he was the king of Jin.

Now don't talk about King Jin, even King Zhou has no play.

Among the other vassal kings, at least for now, no one explicitly supports him, although if he takes the throne by force, these vassal kings will definitely not oppose it, but it is difficult to say that he supports it at present. This time, it was obvious that he wanted to use the support of the Jiangnan gentry, so he had to find a Fu and this kind of background among the ministers of the court, and Qi Tai was the most suitable among the main ministers at present.

Lishui people, born in the imperial examination, the military department is still a scholar......

"The Jianwen Triumvirate is about to complete the combination!"

Yang Feng said with great interest.

"Could it be that when my father dies, they will really fight?"

The little princess said with some melancholy.

"There is no other choice for this kind of thing, if he doesn't fight, he will die, and there has been no way back since his last assassination."

Yang Feng said.

"Wouldn't it be nice if my father sealed him far away in advance?"

The little princess said.

"Then do you think your other nephew won't worry about him developing his power outside and then making a comeback one day? Even if your father seals him outside, and finally the imperial grandson succeeds to the throne, it is also an edict, first move him to a good place to show his leniency, and then when he leaves the fief, someone will accuse him of all kinds of crimes in the fief before.

And the evidence is conclusive.

So it was naturally abolished, and then directly sent to Fengyang High Wall for reflection. ”

Yang Feng said.

This is an inevitable result.

There is no family affection in this kind of thing.

has already torn his face, and in the end, it can only be either you die or I die, even if Zhu Yunxi thinks about some family affection, Lan Yu and others have to urge him to kill Zhu Yunxi.

"No wonder the ancients said, may the world not give birth to the emperor's family!"

The little princess said melancholy.

"Pull it down, it's an unlucky time, I'm afraid I'm glad that I was born in the emperor's family, and when the poor are dying of hunger, I want to say that I don't want the world to give birth to a poor ghost family, this kind of thing is a normal situation Everyone sees it, and the special ones pay attention to it."

Yang Feng said.

"Ugh!"

The little princess smiled awkwardly.

At this time, Harukhime walked in with the green slave......

"The slave has seen the master and the princess."

She saluted.

"It's all your own people, don't be so polite!"

The little princess waved her hand generously and said.

It seems that she is already Mrs. Yang, as for the green slave, she is here to report work, although she is Yang Feng's concubine, she is actually mainly in Liaodong, and she was basically in Huining last year, after all, she still has to manage the reclamation team. Last year, Yang Feng's Huining reclamation business officially started, and Zhang Dingbian personally took those old thieves, together with the employees hired by Yang Feng, to build channels in the reclamation area, reclaim farmland, and then plant soybeans.

As for the food needs, in addition to transportation, there is also hunting and fishing, and also exchanging with the surrounding Udiha tribes.

Thousands of people were not hungry.

However, the maintenance cost is high, and it is still in a serious loss-making situation so far.

After all, the food they need is transported to Longquan Mansion by sea, and then transported by land to the upper reaches of the Songhua River by pack team to be loaded and released, and these ships are also disposable, so there must be shipbuilding, fortunately, there are primeval forests everywhere, but the cost is not high.

At present, the soybean yield is indeed not low, with an average yield of more than 200 catties per mu......

Well, it's actually quite pathetic.

The yield per mu on the black soil is 200 catties.

But the current variety, that is, can reach this yield, in fact, the yield of soybeans per mu in the mainland is only about 100, even if the best land is used, in fact, it is less than 150, and on average, it is actually 100 catties, and they can reach an average of 200, which is already an amazing yield. The green slave is to escort a batch of soybeans this time, because the distance is too far, from the end of the year to this way, until now to go, if it is by water, it will be much faster, but the problem is that the soybean harvest has to be late autumn, and then complete the warehouse then it will be early winter, it is estimated that the snow has begun to fall.

And this kind of season from Huining to Longquan Mansion, and also have to transport supplies, is obviously not an easy task, so simply choose to go south by land, after all, there are post stations and military shops of the Ming army along the way, and there are wooden rail carriages to Shinshu.

"It's from Huining to Longquan Mansion, it's easy to go downstream, but it's troublesome to go backwards."

Green Slave said, pointing to the map.

"It's easy to wait for the wooden tracks in Liaodong to be paved, even if the imperial court refuses to pave them, we will pay for them all the way to the reclamation area."

Yang Feng said.

The imperial court shop is to Jilin City, and there is water transportation further down, but their reclamation area is in Wuchang, so this section does need wooden rails.

"Still have to pay for it?"

The little princess lamented.

Indeed, the little soybeans brought back by the green slaves could not be sold even one-tenth of the annual wages of the reclamation team, and the biggest harvest was 50,000 yuan that her father rewarded because he was happy. Lao Zhu was really happy, Yang Feng used the soybeans harvested in these distant lands to prove to him that Huining could really be reclaimed on a large scale.

Although this is not the first batch, because the military households of Huiningwei also grew wheat there.

And the yield is not low.

But......

That's what he spends money on.

He just sent grain, farm tools, seeds, and even winter clothes to the military households in the Thousand Households in Huining, and calculated that they would harvest ten times the value of the wheat, and at present, Ning Wei and Longquan Wei would grow grain. The entire Huining commanded six guards directly under the embassy, that is, one Han thousand households plus four Udiha, Kuwu and other messy thousand households, and the other four all relied on transportation.

However, the whale marinade fishery is developed, and it can also deliver some canned marine fish to other guards.

But in any case, Huining's command of the envoys was becoming a heavy burden on the imperial court.

So Yang Feng didn't have to spend money on him, which made him very happy.

As for the money Yang Feng spent......

That's Yang Fenghua's, it's his business.

"Not only do I have to pay for it, but I also have to find your father to contract the military supply of the Huining Command Embassy."

Yang Feng said.

He had to forcibly pull Lao Zhu to continue to maintain the command of the envoy in Huiningdu.

Otherwise, they really don't want this kind of place, especially now, those tribes have surrendered, and the Northern Yuan has long been gone, in fact, now the Northern Yuan is in a mess, because of poverty and no place to rob, it is in the midst of internal cannibalism. Although there is still the Great Khan Elebak, but in fact the Warat tribe holds great power, he is a descendant of Ali Buge, after the Battle of Yuerhai, the second son of Emperor Yuan Shun, Yiwang Tugusi Timur, fled west, and was killed by the Ali Buge lineage supported by Warat......

Brother Ali can be dumbfounded.

His descendants have finally reclaimed his Great Khan.

The heavens have eyes!

But the question is that there are four parts of Warat, who will assist the Great Khan?

So now the four parts of Warat, and the old people of Kublai Khan's family are all in chaos.

In this case, the Northern Yuan Dynasty was actually completely out of the sight of the Ming army, and was basically in the western part of the Mongolian Plateau, so Huining really lost its greatest strategic value, and the name Jurchen was directly gone, either it was incorporated into the six guards of the Ming army, or it was a fetter guard and Tusi.

So Yang Feng had to pull Lao Zhu, don't let him move Liuwei inward because he is worried about money.

It's better for him to contract.

(I recommend a book "The Great Alliance of Traversers", a station with the same name UP, the big guy who popularized science crossing farming technology, I don't know if it can become a new generation of 500 wastes.) ）
