Chapter 51 Raiders and Locks

Yan Qing Sun Piyang said this, and simply personally helped Sun Piyang take off the black gauze hat on his head: "It's better to leave some dignity for yourself." In this book, Hai Gong only wants to make up for the deficit with the proceeds of the loot, not to ask His Majesty to punish the public for capital crimes, let alone to peel the skin and grass for this, and the public should be content! ”

As he spoke, Yan Qing instructed his official school: "Don't shackle him, let him go to prison by himself!" ”

Sun Piyang also stood up and walked to the prison at this time.

After Yan Qing sent Sun Piyang to prison and seized Sun Piyang's income and family members, he returned to his study and instructed his staff: "Immediately draw up a concert for this court to ask the court to clear the world's acres of land!" To make up for the deficit by copying the family, is this the long-term strategy for governing the country? ”

At the same time that Sun Piyang was waiting to be raided, Wei Xuezeng, the imperial historian of Nanjing's right capital, also learned about his dismissal and raiding his home.

When Wei Xuezeng saw the soldiers of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate surrounding his small courtyard, and Chen Sheng, the left deputy capital of Nanjing, appeared in front of him with an official letter with chicken feathers, informing him that he had been dismissed from his post and his home was raided, the whole person froze in place on the spot.

"How come I didn't know beforehand?"

Wei Xuezeng was surprised.

"Because no one dares to inform the public!"

"The holy decree said that if the family resources of the copyist are not enough to make up the shortfall, then continue to track down the family until the deficit is made up, so please be considerate of your colleagues."

Chen Provincial Road.

"Whose idea was that?"

Wei Xuezeng asked after hearing this.

Chen said: "Why should the public ask more. I think I'm unlucky. When you were serving as the acting minister of the Ministry of War, the salary set for Liaodong was too low, and the salary that should have been one stone of grain in January was converted into two coins and five cents of silver, and the price of grain in Liaodi reached two taels and one stone, so it was found that the public drift was not very heavy, and another official of the Ministry of War confessed to testify. Now the imperial court has to strictly chase the drifted silver, so it needs to be compensated by the public. ”

"I ask you whose idea it is?!"

Wei Xuezeng stood up from his chair abruptly, and asked angrily: "What grade is he, to reveal the bottom of this hall?!" ”

"This parish is also a grand constitution! Doing this, have you ever thought about what impact it will cause, and how will it save face for the imperial court?! ”

"When the imperial court wants to make up for the shortfall, it will think of copying the home of the minister! Could it be that I am Yan Fenyi, Lu Bao Feng and the like?! He disregarded the friendship of Shilin so much! ”

"It's Haigong, Mr. Gangfeng."

Chen replied.

Wei Xuezeng sat back after hearing this, and then smiled bitterly: "Why didn't I calculate this hexagram, is it because I haven't learned deeply?" ”

After speaking, Wei Xuezeng took off the black gauze hat on his head, and then walked towards Chen Xing and said, "Wait for me to get a copy of the Book of Changes, and then ask the prince to take me to prison." ”

Chen nodded.

So, Wei Xuezeng really went to his study and got a copy of the Book of Changes back, and shook his head and said: "I didn't expect that the second person to be impeached after his recovery would be me." ”

"It's not just the Gong, but also the Fuping Sun Fuyuan."

Chen replied.

Wei Xuezeng was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then asked: "A high-arch protégé, a Xu protégé, Hai Rui did this, is Jiangling having a plan?" ”

Chen Xingxing said with a smile: "The public is an understanding person, so why bother asking." ”

Wei Xuezeng glanced back as he spoke, and said, "It's a pity that the income of half of the official's life has to be put into public funds!" Jiangling is not in a hurry to clear his father, but it makes Hai Rui anxious to continue to search the house, I have already said that Hai Rui cannot be reused, but he Zhang Jiangling is not Gao Xinzheng, and he will not listen to me. ”

Then, Wei Xuezeng glanced at the "Yi" in his hand again and said, "Let's go to prison and calculate it, I still have a chance to recover." ”

……

"I heard that Haigang Peak is here again! And this time it is Hu Ruzhen's authority. I believe that the old parents and the father-in-law all know, right? ”

Matsue Huatei.

Xu Jie took advantage of the spring outing to discuss things with the bureaucrats and gentry of Nanzhi in a private garden.

And the old parents in Xu Jie's mouth are the meaning of the county magistrate.

Nan Zhili nodded according to Yu Shi Tianle and said: "I have seen it in the "Di Daily", and the officialdom in Jiangnan has long been rumored. ”

Wang Yixiu, the prefect of Songjiang, also twisted his eyebrows and said: "Yes, isn't Jiangling the old man's protégé, why did he let Hai Rui come to the southeast?" ”

"Because I'm a student who has a lot of plans!"

Xu Jie said with a smile, and then asked again: "Presumably you also know about Wei and Sun Ergong's house being raided to make up for the shortfall?" ”

The crowd nodded.

Xu Jiedao: "This is both a copy of the house and a send Hai Rui to the southeast, which means that Jiangling wants to let you know that if the court does not solve the deficit for a day, it will not end the raid for a day, and at the same time, you must take the test seriously, and you are not allowed to come nonsense, you can't rigidly urge the people to die for the completion of the test, and you can't arbitrarily deal with the accumulated prison in order to complete the test!" After all, Hai Jui is going to come to see you, and once Hai Jui finds out that you are here, you know what will happen. ”

"We naturally understand, so what should we do, and ask Mr. Xu for guidance."

Wang Yixiu asked.

Xu Jieyan said: "You don't have to worry, Jiangling's intention is just to make you willing to cooperate with the imperial court to implement the system of clearing and acreing the acres of fields, so that you can not only complete the examination, but also solve the deficit of the imperial court, and not affect the people." ”

"Xia Guan thinks so too."

"But if you do this, it will damage the interests of the big households, otherwise you can only make false reports, and once you make false reports, it will be a deception to the king and the people."

Patrol Tian Leyan said.

Xu Jie laughed when he heard this, and asked Tian Le: "Presumably this is the reason why the old parents and the princes suddenly came to see the contemptible people, right?" ”

Tian Le nodded: "That's right, I just want to hear what Mr. Xu means, if it is really in the southeast Qingzhang, it naturally depends on whether Mr. Xu has this will." ”

"The most important thing is to solve the deficit of the imperial court, and as for the damage of large households, it will not be in the way. If it's really Qingzhang, my Xu family will be the first to cooperate! ”

Xu Jie waved his hand and laughed as he spoke.

After hearing this, Tian Le and the officials were overjoyed, and they all bowed their hands to Xu Jie: "Fortunately, the old gentleman is reasonable, otherwise we will be in a dilemma!" ”

Then, Tian Le also added: "In this case, there is no need to be afraid that Mr. Gangfeng will come to the southeast of the governor, it is nothing more than that the bureaucrats and gentry of the transit will not be able to eat and drink and take cards." ”

Xu Jie just smiled, he didn't say anything, just secretly thought that he really didn't need to travel in the next few years.

In addition, Xu Jie had to start writing letters to his other protégés because of the fact that his protégé Sun Piyang was copied, persuading them to understand the purpose of the imperial court.

At this time, after Gao Gong learned that his protégé Wei Xuezeng was also raided in Beijing, he also understood the intention of the imperial court, and began to write letters to his protégés, and said: "For the sake of him Jiangling willing to let me return to Beijing, the old man will help him, so that Your Majesty will also think that I am a small weapon." ”

In this way, throughout the second year of Wanli, Zhu Yijun found that more and more officials asked for the clearing of acres of land to relieve the people's hardship and increase the national treasury.
