Chapter 770: The Fall and Rise of Gonggong Liu (Two in One)

"Jiangning Zhao Mingfei?" Jing Shaokui heard this name for the first time, "Who is this?" ”

Subordinate Xu Yunhui said: "It is a person born in Jiangning County, this person is a young man who has a talent name, it is said that his pen article has also entered the eyes of the former governor of Yingtian He Jianhe, and praised it" splendid talent ", but unfortunately Zhengde entered Beijing in nine years and did not rank, and then returned to his hometown to study hard, and often talked with people in his spare time, and the people of the time referred to him as "Jiangning talent". ”

This kind of name should be said to be in the ordinary place, the natural light is dazzling.

Can you hear it in Jin Gui's ears, it's just a new stalk with calluses, talent? He didn't even know how many he had listened to.

Jing Shaokui is the same, especially Jin Gui is still here, this person is the first in the township test, the second in the hall test, the third in the palace test, and then he was awarded the Hanlin editor, and then entered the Zhan Mansion, served in the crown prince of the year, and then served as an attendant for ten years, famous all over the world, this is the so-called genius of Jiangning...... I really don't have much to say.

"Literati talk from time to time. But to talk about holy bows is inevitably arrogant. Jing Shaokui looked at Jin Gui's face and said, "Besides, ...... Now is the critical moment of Qingtian's order, if it is not punished, Jiangning's affairs will not be done, and Nanjing's affairs will be even more impossible. ”

"What crime did this man commit?"

"Entangled with classmates, rampant in the city. can be given a crime of picking quarrels and provoking troubles and contempt for the imperial court. ”

This kind of crime can be big or small, but as Xu Yun reported, these people are as few as dozens or as many as hundreds, and in the past few days, they have directly taken to the streets, either in the downtown area, or in front of the government office, and have made a collective plea for righteousness, asking the court to suspend the policy of Zhangtian.

They are blackmailing officials, any magistrate, in the face of such a large number of gentry opposition, will more or less retreat, in fact, those who retreat are considered good, more people are acquiescing in their hearts, otherwise it is just a few people to arrest, why go to the governor? It's just that the interests are not clear.

On the other hand, they deceived the people, and on the grounds that the imperial court cleared the hidden fields and paid more taxes, everyone from the officials to the people opposed the fields, and no one received the surveyors wherever they went, so they couldn't run into the fields by themselves, right?

It is impossible to find someone to ask who the owner of the land is.

In fact, not only the fields of the gentry, but also the imperial court had to tax the fields of the gentry, which was almost unacceptable to all the gentry.

The four surveyors sent to Jiangning were so anxious that they jumped on the spot, and they emphasized to the magistrate over and over again: "Qingtian Zhangdi is the holy decree of the imperial court!" And there is always a time limit, wait for a month or two, and ask Jiang Ning's progress above, does Tangzun want to reply to the imperial court with no progress?! ”

This magistrate only smiled at each other, "Of course, the holy decree must be obeyed, but didn't the day before yesterday agree to the four of them to go to Zhangtian?" What's going on today? ”

One person said, "Naturally, those people are not cooperative!" ”

On the side, he was polite: "I have to ask Tangzun to come forward in this matter, and the faces of our few people are definitely not as good as Tangzun." ”

"Where, where, you were sent by the imperial court." After Jiang Ning Zhixian finished speaking, he began to sell miserably, "Don't hide it from the four, you all know what is going on outside now." This official is appointed by the imperial court, and is sent by the emperor to do this official, for the sake of the official for one term, for the benefit of one party, for the people of the county, must not go against the grain, otherwise once the people are provoked, not only the people will suffer, but even the official will immediately move his head, I am afraid that I will not see what you said a month later, two months later. ”

The four of them looked at each other, "What is the plan of that hall?" ”

Jiang Ning Zhixian smiled slightly, but did not speak, "Either the four of you will go back first, and wait for the people's sentiment to slow down a little, how about it?" ”

After sending the person away with a few words, his master came out with squinted eyes, "Hall, there is one here who still looks like a smart person?" Do you want......? ”

"Huh?!" This nasal voice is a little heavy, which scares the master.

"You and I don't want to get involved in this matter, these people are sent down from above, and I don't know what the details are. Tell them to do it, whoever is brave will do it themselves. ”

The so-called 'doing' is to win over the surveyor, not a lot, just one or two people.

The imperial court let clear the fields, and they took care of them, but when they cleared some specific fields, could there be ways to do some tricks?

Daming is so big, who will pay attention to the thousands of acres of land here?

After feeding the mouth above, the people's sentiment can be eased, and the things below will naturally be easy to do.

The routines are all this routines.

The only thing that made the magistrate a little jealous was that the new fish scale atlas was signed by him, which was a bit troublesome.

But then again, responsibility and power are equal, he has to take responsibility, it can also be understood that this is the power in his hands, no matter which family, but if he is a little careful, he will naturally be honored in place. Otherwise, he would not have signed it.

Soon, someone outside reported, "Honor! More than 100 students are here again today! ”

"Come on, make a pot of tea for me. People are not yelling at us, they are yelling at those people, what are we anxious about? ”

What a month, two months, this kind of talk is not believed by the old oil bureaucrats.

First, there is a law that does not blame the public, and he himself does not believe that the imperial court can implement such a policy in Jiangnan, and second, it can also be explained by the fierce reaction of the people when the time comes. The imperial court originally wanted them to be officials in a way that treated the people well, did it encourage them to kill people on a large scale?

This is true in Jiangning, all the way east, to Suzhou.

In half a month, the holy decree proclaimed in Nanjing that day has now reached all the prefectures and counties.

Suzhou Liutong went to the courtyard and said to his Zhuo nephew: "I'm afraid that this Qincha is going to be foreign, Jiangnan is not as good as Shandong, the imperial court is going to change the ancestral system, and collect the taxes of the gentry, where is it easy?" ”

"My nephew also heard that the emperor wants to build another palace?"

"Oh? The news spread so fast. I asked someone, and this matter is true. Therefore, every household is even more jumping, Su and Song are already extremely taxed, and the emperor is afraid of the heat to practice the palace, hey, he doesn't know that many people can't afford to eat! ”

Zhuo Ding's heart itched, "Uncle, the matter of that father ......"

"Wait a minute. The situation in Jiangnan, if it goes on like this, that Zhang Xuan can't please him, sitting on the oil pot as a pavilion elder, how long can he do it? When he is dismissed, he will naturally be able to overturn the case! ”

"Good! Good! Zhuo Ding slapped his palm excitedly, "That nephew has thanked his uncle for saving his life here!" ”

"Where. Forehead...... Actually, if you're really in a hurry, you can just make a bigger deal out of it, but ......," Liu Tong smiled embarrassedly, "but you have to take some risks in this matter." ”

Zhuo Ding didn't give up, "Where is the uncle." At the point where I am now, as long as I can try a method, I have to try it, otherwise what's the difference between it and death? ”

"This is also true, if your family is in trouble, how can you still have the idea of protecting yourself?"

That's it.

Since there is this remark, Liu Tong also said, "This time the imperial court sent the so-called surveyors down, ostensibly to unify standards and methods, but in fact, they are also people who do not believe in the locality. In the end, along with all the gentry, it was to be taxed and served. This truth is not understood by everyone, if the nephew is interested, the uncle will introduce you, you are a scholar, you must understand this truth, and then secretly provoke these people......"

Zhuo Dingding was shocked, now that they are watching a play, if they really want to do something, then they will become people who are against the court.

This is a relatively terrifying thing in the eyes of quite a few people, but Liu Tong seems to have eaten him.

A family was unjustly imprisoned, how did this 'unreasonable' court treat him?

“…… The nephew doesn't have to take the lead, but acts according to the direction of the wind, and no matter how good the government is, it is impossible to arrest people from house to house. Of course, if you just wait and see what happens, that's fine. ”

"No!" Zhuo Ding's face turned red, "My nephew has read books, and if he is not modest, he can be regarded as a little knowledgeable, knowing that when he acts today, there are always a few stubbornnesses, and wait and see what happens?" I'm afraid it won't work. Such a small fight will not change anything, and it will have to set off a huge disaster in the south of the Yangtze River, otherwise it will be difficult to change. ”

"Good!"

……

……

Zhongdu, Fengyang, in a courtyard of the imperial mausoleum.

Liu Jin, whose hair was gray, sat on the stone bench with a broom and gasped.

A few years have passed, and he is old, and it seems that his waist is not good, and he holds his left hand, and occasionally beats twice.

Just as he was trying to steal a moment of leisure, three people suddenly entered outside, and the person led by him had a wide and white face, with a fierce face, "I'm talking about you!" So it's lazy here! No wonder you have to sweep the big fart area for two hours! ”

Liu Jin's heart sank, a handful of old bones trembled with fright, knelt down and said, "Manager Yu spares his life!" The small one is to sweep the backache for a long time, and it is just ...... It's just that I rested for a while, and I didn't lazy! ”

He'd forgotten how he had treated people in the first place.

Reason? Why is it important here? And what's the use of explaining that others have mercy on you? Just kidding, isn't it.

In fact, the group with a high rate of eunuch metamorphosis is very high.

The old eunuch lost his status and guarded the mausoleum here, it was not a life that no one cared about, or even a happy life that no one cared about.

This Yu didn't give him a good face, as if the eunuch who bullied the palm print in the past could show his ability, and scolded directly: "If you are lazy in your work, you dare to quibble!" Come on! Palm mouth!! ”

"Yes!"

"Manager Yu spares his life, Manager Yu spares his life!"

Before he finished speaking, he just 'snapped' twice, and his face was hot and painful.

An old man with back pain was bullied like this, which was indeed a little sad, but Manager Yu was still smiling proudly, "To tell you honestly, you, you have accumulated too much yin virtue in the past and offended too many people." Although you can't be killed, those who are willing to give money to make your life worse than death are lined up. Hahaha. ”

"I want to thank Grandpa Liu, a few of us have eaten a lot of Grandpa Liu's bounty."

"Hahaha!"

Liu Jin's heart is actually numb, he really couldn't accept it at first, but after a few years, he has been bullied all over the place, and now he is 'like water'.

"Give our house a good sweep! Back pain? Then you have to endure a little, our temple here is small, but it is not as good as the celebrant supervisor. Ha ha. ”

Liu Jin was slapped twice and lay on the ground, and at this time he could only get up by himself, and said humbly: "The little one obeys orders." ”

Seeing him like this, Manager Yu laughed even more presumptuously.

The little minion beside him was still angry, and said: "Hey, if you want to say that last year, the emperor came to Zhongdu really scared us, I didn't think about it, and in the end I didn't even mention it." ”

It is true that the old eunuch at that time did not meet the emperor.

Because Zhu Houzhao is a mature political figure, he will not do things indiscriminately because of his emotional fluctuations. Sometimes, you think it's an old friend to meet, but in fact, being a politician has political connotations.

Otherwise, why can't the general who went out come back to see the prince? Do they have to be talking about business? Maybe it's a private matter, or even the same hobby, but that's the fact itself.

But there is no such thing as a small beauty in political life.

Zhu Houzhao suddenly saw Liu Jin, this is unprovoked to make You Ji panic, people are in a panic, I don't know what will happen, isn't this asking for trouble?

But when all this happened, for Liu Jin, who had been sweeping the yard for several years, it was really frustrating.

As the saying goes, the most terrifying thing in the world is hope.

Especially when he heard that the emperor was going to the central capital in the south of the Yangtze River, he really had hope in his heart.

Of course, the end result also killed him mentally and completely.

So at this moment, no one else bullied or scolded him, he didn't react, he was just a panting animal, begging to live...... Beggars to live......

This night, it is destined to be dinner and have no dinner.

Liu Jin could fully predict that he was already 'experienced', so he didn't care about it at all, and went back to his small room, which was only big enough for two beds.

In addition to the bed, there is a basin shelf, and a few boxes of old clothes under the bed, and other than that, it is a broken cabinet.

Liu Jin took out the hard nest head wrapped in paper from the drawer, hid behind the door, and gnawed little by little.

The moonlight shines in, and it's even a little spooky here.

But he was completely used to it.

After being slightly hungry and no longer hungry, he lay down on the bed, and because of the low back pain, he did not dare to move too much or too fast, and his brows were furrowed for a long time.

That night he dreamed......

Bang bang!

Bang bang bang!!

"Father-in-law Liu, are you awake?"

In the dream, people began to call him Gonggong Liu again.

"Father-in-law Liu?" Someone knocked at the door again, "The emperor's will is here." ”

In his dream, there is still the emperor in his world.

……

"Why aren't you awake yet? Is something wrong? ”

Liu Jin frowned, this sentence was not in the dream, it was a very strange question.

Bang bang!

"Father-in-law Liu?"

Someone's knocking on the door!!

Liu Jin opened his eyes suddenly.

Listen again, there are two more 'bang bang' sounds.

It's over, it's not a dream, it's oversleeping!

"It's coming! The little one will open the door right away! Enduring the sore waist, Liu Jin opened the door as fast as he could, and before he could take a closer look, he knelt down directly, "Manager Yu, it's a little one who overslept!" ”

When he knelt, the people outside were stupid, and they all knelt on the ground, "Grandpa Liu, this can't be done!" I can't help it! ”

Liu Jin was strange, when he raised his head slightly, everyone else was stupid, who did he see.

He has always been known for his ruthlessness, but he actually had tears in his eyes, "Zhang ...... Zhang Yong? Zhang Yong, have you come to see me? ”

Zhang Yong half-knelt on the ground and helped Liu Jin, who was full of white hair, "Brother Liu, how did you become like this!" ”

When he said this, Manager Yu on the side wanted to die, in fact, he felt that he was going to die, and no one even talked to him, he was already trembling.

"It's really you, Zhang Yong!" Liu Jin was in tears, his mouth was open and he wanted to ask a lot, but he didn't know where to start, his two lips trembled for a long time before he suddenly woke up and began to kowtow, "Small, small Liu Jin, kowtow to Grandpa Zhang!" I was out of shape for a moment just now, and I offended Father-in-law Zhang, and I asked Father-in-law Zhang to punish him! ”

Zhang Yong didn't laugh at him, he was a little benevolent and a little less a chicken thief, to put it bluntly, he was a little loyal, "Brother Liu!" You suffered. Get up quickly. ”

Then he turned a cold face to the person next to him, "You guys, get out." ”

When Manager Yu heard this, he immediately ran away in a panic.

Zhang Yong picked up Liu Jin and brought the door again, and the two sat down on the edge of the bed, "Brother Liu, calm down, my brother has something important to tell you this time." ”

"Important...... Tell each other? Liu Jin blinked.

He didn't dare to think about it.

"You say."

Zhang Yong's face was a little ruddy, "The old slave Liu Jin listens to the order!" ”

Ha?

Liu Jin was stunned.

"Brother Liu, junior brother, this is the emperor's message!" Zhang Yong reminded.

"Ahh Liu Jin exclaimed, only to feel that his breath was almost missing, and the whole person immediately rolled from the side of the bed to the ground, and then fell to the ground and knelt, "Slave Liu Jin took the order." ”

Zhang Yong continued to sit upright, "Old slave Liu Jin, let you guard the mausoleum for a few years, you should have learned enough lessons, right?" Let's see if you dare to be insincere! If you already know your mistakes and can still do things, then go to Nanjing, serve as a garrison eunuch in Nanjing for me for a few years, and be optimistic about staying in the capital and killing those who are not honest. When things are done, let me see that you are truly repentant, and then come to see me in Jingshi, otherwise you will not come again in this life! Chin this! ”

After hearing this, Liu Jin still maintained the posture just now, in fact, his heart was already surging like a sea.

Zhang Yong said tentatively: "Brother Liu, thank you." ”

"Your Majesty, did the Emperor really say that?"

"Brother Liu, don't be excited, can I still fake the emperor's message? The emperor is still thinking of you. ”

"Yes, yes, it's me who is abrupt." After saying this, he was followed by three kowtows, and he was so moved that he wiped his tears, "Slave Liu Jin, thank Your Majesty for your grace!" It's a slave, a slave and a slave, I'm sorry for the emperor! ”

After finishing the business, Zhang Yong's heart was happy, and he said: "On the trip to Nanjing, the younger brother will accompany you to the past, and we will reminisce about the old days along the way." Now, brother, hurry up and pack up, let's get on the road as soon as possible. ”

Although Liu Jin is old, his mind is clear, the emperor in his heart is scheming, scheming, and his will is not bad, and he will definitely not pity him, or suddenly miss him, there must be some purpose.

"I'm not in a hurry to clean up, and let my brother ask more."

Zhang Yong understood, and as soon as he raised his hand, "Don't worry about Brother Liu." The matter is very simple, last year, the emperor issued an order to clear the fields in the world, to measure the acres of fields in the world, but this matter is extremely difficult in the south of the Yangtze River. Brother Liu, do you remember how you came to this place at that time? ”

"Of course I do."

In the fifth year of Zhengde, the Son of Heaven promoted the clean-up of the military tun, and in the matter of the military tun, the vassal kings, eunuchs, and officers were all contaminated. The emperor took action to deal with him Liu Jin, on the surface, he was not honest enough, and secretly maintained these eunuchs to some extent, which was contrary to the major affairs of the Son of Heaven.

In fact, it was later understood that the emperor simply uprooted the eunuchs from the roots, and then used the newly appointed special site to deter the garrison eunuchs from all over the country.

This root is Liu Jin!

Because You Di has no foundation, he can only obey the emperor. And the eunuchs in various towns originally had a close relationship with Liu Jin, and Liu Jin squeezed out You Ji everywhere, so everyone was jealous of this You Gonggong.

In this way, these town guards and eunuchs will naturally act cautiously because they don't have the eldest brother to carry things for them, and on the other hand, they have to worry that the new eldest brother will find an excuse to clean them up.

Liu Jin said in his heart: The emperor is really the king of heaven, one person falls, one person rises, and great things can be accomplished.

"Brother Liu, what do you say? The emperor also said that if you are too old to do anything......"

Liu Jin stopped him from continuing, "Let's leave today." But before I go, I want to kill someone. ”

====

Let's write a big chapter of five thousand four today.

There were four consecutive episodes of blood in the stool during the week, and the amount of bleeding was obviously not simple...... Although it didn't hurt and I didn't feel it at all, I was still shocked and went to the hospital to see if it was hemorrhoids.

But I still remember the mood at that time...... I'm afraid, there seem to be a lot of accidents with online writers.

Writing a book, a long job, the body is important.
