Anyway, the four years of Zhengde have passed like this.

At the beginning of the year, Shaofu made a joke in Huai'an Mansion because of the road construction in Liangjing, which made Shaofu make Gu Zuo eat melons.

Then Zhang Xuan was ordered to leave Ningxia, and the Qingtun incident involved the interests and lives of too many people, and it took more than half a year to make a mutiny, and now he didn't even see any hope of success, forcing the imperial court to send a large army and command envoys to kill people with knives.

Zhu Houzhao is regarded as an emperor who has great power in the court, financial resources, and army, and he still looks like this, no wonder most of these reforms have failed in history, and even some people have made a start, and they don't know where they died under the knife.

It's really too difficult.

At present, although several other military towns have not made any trouble under heavy pressure, they have not heard of any major progress in Qingtun, and Zhu Houzhao estimates that there is still too much resistance, I am afraid that many people are violating the yang and yin, and there are problems at the middle level of a management system.

Now that it is the Chinese New Year, the weather is not good, and other major events except for counterinsurgency can be slowed down for the time being.

However, Zhu Houzhao's will, the Beijing camp and the Shangzhi personal guard were still transferred according to the original plan, and the troops led by Qi Chengjiao, the secretary of the military department, were stationed in Yongping, and the reason was easy to find.

But in fact, it was to go to liquidation.

At the beginning, there were two guards who took the initiative to contact the rebels and attack the officers and soldiers, which was too bad, although some people saw that the situation was not right halfway and turned back again, but there is nothing so cheap in this world.

This is a rebellion.

followed the incident, and immediately turned back if it didn't work, and there was still this kind of turning back?

Zhu Houzhao asked the cabinet to come up with a solution.

Anyway, it's not appropriate to kill them all, otherwise if there is such a thing in the future, then no one will turn against the water, and it will definitely be reversed to the end.

So these people still don't kill their heads, and their families are not implicated, but they can't stay in their hometowns, either go to Lingnan, go to Gansu, or go to Hetao to reclaim wasteland, anyway, choose one by themselves.

For the people who have resettled in the land, exile is lighter than killing the head.

It turned out that the cabinet also wanted to bring some silver taels seized in Qianxi to the capital division, and these corrupt officials did not know how much money they had taken out their hands, and a mess broke out, and they actually made a joke about 4,000 taels of gold and 160,000 taels of silver.

Looking at these white flowers, I really don't know whether to be sad that the previous officials were too corrupt, or to be satisfied with the great success of counterinsurgency.

First of all, Tengxiang Zuowei Baihu seized two large boxes, and later found two large boxes in the city, and the boxes full of gold were too eye-catching, and now it is estimated that the entire Jizhou Town has been spread.

Zhu Houzhao laughed angrily during the court discussion, so he said to his subordinates: There is so much gold in an inconspicuous small county town, should the military tun be cleaned up? If you don't clean up, you don't know that these people are so rich!

However, all this silver was moved to Beijing, and Zhu Houzhao disagreed.

He has three million taels of silver in his internal pocket, although the amount of money he can save every year has dropped, unlike the original three or four million a year, mainly because the Xunchen group and some civil officials want to share dividends, and he still spent a lot of cavalry in the past two years.

But that's enough.

Besides, Ping Haibo has just entered Beijing.

An emperor can't be a miser, what can he do with so much silver? He preferred to give it to the soldiers, so that they could continue to fight happily.

The holy decree is that Tengxiang Siwei and Yanshan left and right guards have meritorious battles, and Jizhou is a great achievement in the first war, plus it is still the New Year, and every soldier cannot go home, so Zhu Houzhao gave them a new concept: festival expenses.

The seized taels of silver were exchanged for about 200,000 taels of silver, and there was no need to hand over a tael, and the officers and men at the top and bottom were divided according to a certain proportion.

Just opened the eyes of the border army, what is the first-class guard in the direct guard?

A complete emperor's heart.

According to the basic principle that the commander takes more and the soldier takes less, each soldier in Jizhou can get a reward of six taels of silver, and there are more than 100 or 1,000 households above, after all, 30,000 people share 200,000 taels of silver, 100 households can get 20 or 30 taels, and 1,000 households can get hundreds of taels.

In this way, the six guard posts, from the commander to the thousands of households, down to the small banner soldiers, did not mention the matter of not celebrating the New Year in Beijing.

Preferably, come back next year.

Tengxiang Zuowei's 100 households have been promoted to 1,000 households, but there is no vacancy in this guard, the meaning of the peak, the position is mentioned first, the silver is taken first, and the specific adjustment will be made after the class teacher returns to the court.

This place in Yongping Mansion is also called 30,000 troops to occupy.

Yang Shangyi appointed Geng Qi as the special person in Qingtun, and with the help of his direct relatives on the Sixth Road, he went to various places to redraw the acres of military tun fields, and at the same time registered and made a register, confirmed the right to issue certificates.

With such intensity, no one caught Ma Bin.

Heh, but they're all honest.

So it wasn't Jinyiwei who arrested people, it was another group of people - Yang Shangyi's people.

It was mainly the soldiers and their families who participated in the rebellion, and ordinary people did not dare to cover up this kind of rebellion, and many people were arrested for their families, while most of the people in the palace kept their own doors behind closed doors, and their relatives and contacts with each other were stopped.

Many of the soldiers who were able to get the guards had silver in their hands, but they had nowhere to spend it.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, when the Japanese military camp was closed, Zuo Dong and his brothers could only run out of the city and go to the countryside to buy a few chickens, ducks and a sheep.

One of them named Chen was injured in the head, it was an arrow wound, and he was being treated, and after the military camp popularized alcohol disinfection, these injuries were not as scary as before, but this kind of rough man was used to it, and he was clamoring to eat meat and drink wine, and this was not the case.

In winter, a pot of fire was raised, four legs of lamb were raised and roasted, and the brothers gathered in four circles, with wine and meat, talking and laughing, that is, Chen Datou was eating vegetables on the table alone, which was actually not bad, and brought him a few eggs.

"Wow! Left head, our old Chen can't help it! You just eat it behind your back, not a mouthful full of oil in front of my eyes! Anyway, you have to give me a piece, right? ”

His companion laughed at him, "Who is to blame for telling you to walk without an eye and be pecked by an arrow, and your skills are not good?" If you dare not listen to the military doctor, you will come and eat! ”

"Why don't you dare? I'm not afraid of him! ”

Zuo Dongcai ignored him, he cut off a piece of lamb shank, his mouth was stuffed, and he glared at him at the same time, "Itchy? ”

The discipline in the first-class guard is extremely strict, and this is also rolled out, otherwise how can there be combat effectiveness?

He just said two words, and Chen's head didn't dare to move.

"Hahaha."

It's nice to have someone who can make a joke.

"But I really didn't expect the emperor to be so happy this time, and the adults above also said that the gold was going to be transported to Beijing, but it didn't even get lucky. I knew that this was the case, we should have dug three more feet in the ground in Qianxi, and maybe we could find two more boxes. I knew earlier in Beijing that these bird officials were living a good life. ”

"The emperor is really a heroic man, that gold, tsk tsk, if you want to change my old Song, I will definitely take this thing home and hide it in the quilt. Surely there will be no points for a piece. ”

Zuo Dong chewed in his mouth, smiling wantonly on his face, watching them brag nonsense, the military camp was originally forbidden to drink, just one night, he didn't care about them.

He made a bowl of his own and said, "There should still be a chance." The matter of cleaning up the military cantonment is like asking for the lives of these people. I went out for a few days, and it was really something that only the knife holder could do on the neck, so it couldn't be so stable. Even if Jizhou is suppressed, what about Liaodong? If there is a change in Liaodong, it is estimated that it will still be us. Further north of Yongping is Shanhaiguan. ”

His subordinates' eyes lit up when they heard this, "That feeling is good, if you fight him a few more times in this kind of battle, we will all become rich people!" However, Liaodong is bitter, and I don't know if there is so much gold in that place. ”

"These people are really stupid, guarding so much gold, even if they are clear? Obviously, the money that can't be spent in a few lifetimes is good, but now it's good, life is gone, and the money is gone. ”

Zuo Dong said with a smile: "They want to turn around like this, what kind of official will our brothers promote, and what reward will they eat?" ”

"That's, that's! What a great battle! ”

There are also people who graduated from military academies in the first-class guards, and it is still true that knowledge is power, especially in the era of illiterates, this person's name is Jiang Zhun, and he said: "Mr. has said before, the military camp is corrupt, so the military salary has nowhere to go, coupled with the corruption of officials, layers of exploitation, it is difficult for soldiers to even eat enough, let alone any combat power, to get us here, C-level guards are not as good."

This reason is easy to understand, but I don't understand why these people led the soldiers like this, and this time it was like this, and the 20,000 chaotic troops dispersed as soon as they were beaten. So what Zuo Qianhu said is not impossible, where is the chaos, after we go, it will be flat, and the reward is still big. ”

"It's easy to fight, but you can't take the enemy too lightly."

~~

The place where the Great Sima camped.

Qi Chengjiao is also discussing with the generals, "After the New Year, when the weather is a little better, we will disperse the six guards and horses, and inspect all the places in Jizhou, which is the meaning of the holy decree and the means to ensure that there is no more chaos in Jizhou." ”

Yang Shangyi nodded, "Alas, the matter of Qingtun in Jizhou has made such a big fuss. ”

"General Yang knows that the two guards of Bauhinia Pass are one A and one B, the four guards of Juyong Pass are one A and three B, and there are twenty-five guards on the Zhizhi, and there are ten first-class guards, except for two guards who are left to guard the imperial city, the rest of the capable factions have been dispatched. It can be seen that the emperor knows in his heart that this matter is not easy, so there is no need to worry too much. ”

"Ah, how did you send so many?"

Qi Chengjiao explained: "The army patrols, speaking of a fluttering thing, once the restraint is not strict, it is a plunder, and the military discipline of the first-class guard is the best, so Your Majesty is relieved." That's it, there are several towns in Liaodong, Yulin, and Shanxi, and I don't know if there will be any problems in these places. ”

Anyway, let's talk about it after this year.

Zhengde's four years are so vigorous, he hopes that in Zhengde's five years, these people can get to know each other a little.

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, after resting for several days, people from all walks of life began to go out of the nest.

Ma Bin, the deputy envoy of Jinyiwei, still killed two people from the head, as if he would not work if he didn't do this, and then he led people to follow Geng Qixian to a place called Gaojiapo below Yongping, which is a flat land under a low hillside, and there is mountain spring water flowing down from above, irrigating thousands of acres of land.

Years ago, I knew that this place was the most fertile, and this kind of land could not be grown by ordinary military households.

The one who invaded here was a thousand households, surnamed Qiu, but he didn't participate in the trouble, but if he wanted to take out all this, it would be like a knife.

There was such a thing as a rebellion, everyone seemed to be able to work, Geng Qi's people were responsible for re-measuring the registration, and Ma Bin checked the materials brought by the thousand households.

"Qiu Qianhu, you have 8,642 acres of land above here, all of which are here, and there is nothing to hide, right?"

"Yes, it's all here!"

"Got it." Ma Bin's face was expressionless, he handed the things to the side and walked down by himself, and asked the person who measured it, knowing that the number was accurate.

turned around and said to Qiu Qianhu: "Qiu Qianhu is a rare honest person, rest assured, the numbers are right." But these deeds can't be given to you. ”

This person still had hot eyes when he looked at the things in Ma Bin's hands, but there were soldiers everywhere, so he could only bow his head.

Ma Bin patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Give your soldiers some way to live, and also give yourself a way to live." It's not that hard. ”

"Superior, teachable."

Ma Bin was a little hesitant about this life, "You have committed crimes in the past, and you won't think about taking it back in the future, right?" ”

These words were said gloomily, and the face of this thousand households turned pale in an instant, "Don't worry, you won't!" The last general must obey the will of the imperial court! ”

In fact, Ma Bin was thinking about killing something, but the court must have a more comprehensive consideration, if these people are also killed, no one will be willing to support Qingtun.

So keep it.

"It's okay, there is a second round of inspections in the imperial court, and I will let people focus on you."

This......

"Please spare your life, please spare your life!"

Ma Bin is a little jealous and hateful, this kind of official is placed under his hands in Ningxia, he is definitely killed. He can't kill now, and scaring and scaring is also very much to his liking.

"Wait to measure the field, as long as you don't have any other thoughts, your head won't fall."

According to this order, then the official army began to take full control of these fields.

It is also good to say that there are big things, that is, the meaning of the imperial court is spread everywhere, from Yongping to Jizhou, and the common people, merchants, and military households all know what the imperial court is making and why there is such a mess.

In this way, the soldiers at the bottom are actually not very willing to make trouble.

However, the Qing army in Yongping sent the fields to the big households in the city, and many people began to ask to see Ma Bin, but what they couldn't see was crying along the street.

I asked carefully to find out.

These people took advantage of the loopholes of the imperial court and put the land in the name of Qiu Qianhu in order to escape the enslavement!

The problem of dedication was indeed a common phenomenon in the Ming Dynasty, but this problem was not prominent when Ningxia cleaned up Tuntian, because at that time, it involved the rebellion of the royal palace, and the imperial court pursued it vigorously.

But here in Yongping, Qiu Qianhu has always been very honest and does not have this problem.

At first, Ma Bin didn't take it seriously, he didn't meet it much in Ningxia, and later it developed to the point that the sedan chair he was riding was forced to stop by a group of wealthy families, and many of them were older, crying with tears and snot.

Ma Bin later felt a little strange, but it was difficult to talk on the street, so he asked people to lead him to the place where he was staying.

He sat on the main seat, and eight people sat on either side, all of whom were white and fat.

"Shangcha, we are all Yongping merchants, and we are more or less involved in the land of Gaojiapo...... That piece of land, that piece of land, isn't it all Qiu Qianhu's! Quite a few of them are ours! The imperial court wants to clear the tun, so we have bought all the land that has been encroached upon by officials! ”

Ma Bin tilted his head and said four words to his subordinates, "Recorded." ”

"Yes."

After he finished writing, he took it and glanced at it, and then passed it to everyone, "Let's all press a handprint." That's what you just said. ”

"Huh? Poor, this is ......? ”

"You have to make sure that what you have reported is true, and report it to the seal officer. Otherwise, you said that this is the case today, and when the official reports to the authorities, what will you do if you change your words again?"

That's right, you have to follow the process to do things.

However, these people are timid and some do not dare.

Ma Bin couldn't help it, "After all, this official is also the deputy envoy of Jinyiwei, what are you?" As soon as the upper lip touches the lower lip, let the official go to run errands for your business?! If you don't press it, you leave if you don't press it. ”

"Press! We all press! ”

Ma Bin only sneered, everyone in the world is like this.

When all these eight people were pressed, his face changed again, and he stretched out two fingers and pointed, "These eight people, surrendering their land to avoid the imperial court's service, they themselves have confessed to the crime, all of them are arrested, choose a day, and ask for beheading." ”

His tone was always relaxed.

And of course, these people are in a hurry, "Bad luck!" You can't be a man without faith! ”

"It's too noisy, it's too noisy, take it all!" Ma Bin waved his hand, with an impatient face, "It's a joke that people who are evading the imperial court's service still dare to say the word 'letter'." ”

"That's the case, how dare you condemn us to beheading?"

Ma Bin originally felt that no one killed and his hands were itchy, a vulgar man like him was not a normal routine at all, and when he heard this, he remembered his past misery and resentment towards such unscrupulous people.

He got up directly, hooked his fingers, "Bring the knife." ”

The sharp sound of metal rubbing made these people sweat coldly, and probably recalled the horror of Jinyiwei, and the one who originally shouted with his head began to feel that something was wrong, "Wait...... Wait, you, what are you going to do? ”

"Don't do anything, I think you're very good at reasoning, so I'll be reasonable with you."

With a poof, he actually cut people directly in the hall, and blood splashed his hand.

When the news reached Geng Qi's ears, he felt frightened.

There are indeed cases of private land donations, and now Jinyiwei is actually investigating these people with the problem of tax evasion.

The crux of the matter is that this matter is known from top to bottom, but it is not said, why? Because of the people standing in the court, many of them have accepted land offerings in their own homes.

But it's one thing to know everything, and it's another thing to say it when you're serious. The so-called non-weighing is not four or two, and it is the truth that one can not beat a thousand catties.

Geng Qi is not good at talking directly, but when he met Ma Bin again, he still knocked on the side and said: "Shangcha, just the crime of sacrificing land killed people, brother, I always feel that when the time comes, I will find trouble for us." In case you cut the wrong head...... This, it's not easy to explain. ”

"Who's up there?" Ma Bin was puzzled.

Jin Yiwei has obviously acted on behalf of the Son of Heaven, what else is there?

There is a bit of wine tonight, write a thousand dollars, you have to rest early, you can't play with your life.
