161 Lawlessness

The piracy crisis was lifted, and the shadow in the hearts of the people of Xiangshan County was gone. The arrival of King Yan made Xiangshan County lively until late.

Yongjiahou Zhu Liangzu's side sent a team of scouts to Xiangshan County in the afternoon.

Although he fell out with the colt, he still knows some measure. In case the county seat of Xiangshan is really captured by pirates, the concubine and the princess have an accident.

He led his troops to garrison Guangzhou so close but did not come to the rescue, how angry the emperor would be, he also guessed, and he did not dare to bear such a risk.

Therefore, he first sent a horse to watch, and when Xiangshan County was in danger, he would lead the troops to appear, even if he grasped the excellent measure, he could not only teach the horse a lesson, but also not cause a big problem.

But what he never expected was that in the evening, Tanma would return the news that he had never imagined.

"What?" Zhu Liangzu was immediately taken aback, and confirmed with some disbelief, "Is it really the Yan King who leads the water here?" ”

Of course, he knew that King Yan was appointed as the chief military officer of the suppression of the Japanese, and there were indeed the most elite sailors of the Ming Dynasty under him. But King Yan is on the Jiangyin side, very far away from here in Guangdong, can he run so far?

"It is indeed the Yanwang Sailor, and he has exterminated the pirates and returned to Xiangshan County."

Zhu Liangzu confirmed the news, and couldn't help but say a little stupidly: "No wonder I don't send a sailor, and he doesn't beg for mercy, it turns out that there is a back-up move!" ”

Although it is said that Xiangshan County has set up a thousand households to guard against pirates, they can catch thieves for a thousand days freely, and there is no reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days.

As long as the threat of pirates is never lifted, then Xiangshan County will always be afraid, this emotion will not last long, and in the end, the colt will definitely give in.

But he never expected that he had already asked for help.

"It seems that this colt is very young, and the city is very deep!" After listening to Zhu Liangzu's second son, Zhu Yu, thought about it for a while, and then said with emotion.

Counting the time difference, it should be that after the colt knew that there was a threat from pirates, he asked King Yan for help, so he could arrive at this time.

Zhu Liangzu heard this, but he sneered: "Maybe the blind cat hit the dead mouse, then King Yan just happened to inspect the coastal defense!" ”

The crisis in Xiangshan County was solved by King Yan, which made Yongjiahou very depressed, so he began to drink and have fun again.

As for the rest, he didn't think much of it at all.

King Yan is here, take care of him Yongjiahou bird affairs!

If he had been more politically sensitive, perhaps he would have thought deeper and adjusted his attitude in a timely manner, which might not necessarily improve his situation.

However, it is obvious that Yongjiahou, a martial artist, does not have so much political sensitivity at all. Otherwise, in the original history, he would not have gotten close to the prime minister, and even Zhu Yuanzhang dared to deceive, so that he was beaten to death by Zhu Yuanzhang!

The next day, the people of Xiangshan County flocked to the beach to watch the excitement.

Princess Lin'an continued to stay in Xiangshan County, and Zhang Yifan accompanied Zhu Di to board the ship to Guangzhou to settle accounts.

When he was about to get on the boat, Zhang Yifan said to Daotong, the county commander of Panyu County, who followed him: "I will also give you a big gift when I go with King Yan, which can be regarded as a return for your trip to help, and your life will not be sad in the future!" ”

The biggest obstacle to Daotong being a good county magistrate in Panyu County is the old man of Yongjiahou. As long as Yongjiahou is removed, the pressure on Dao will be greatly reduced. It would have been easier if I had helped him a little more.

However, at this time, Dao Tong was confused, and he didn't know what the horse meant by this?

I wanted to ask, but the horse had already boarded the boat, so he had to say goodbye to Her Royal Highness the princess, and led the people who were full of wine and food to go back to Panyu County.

At the same time, a promise was also brought back to Xiangshan County. In the future, Xiangshan County will recruit people from other villages, and under the same conditions, Panyu County household registration will be preferred.

On the surface of the Pearl River, it is really a rare grand scene.

The most elite sailors of the Ming Dynasty went to Guangzhou City in a mighty way. The people on both sides of the strait, in this leisure time, are calling friends to come to see the excitement.

Inevitably, the He family in Dongguan also knew the news.

In fact, the He family knew the news of the arrival of the Yan King's water division last night.

As soon as he heard the news, He Zhen immediately felt frightened. His political sensitivity is by no means comparable to that of Yongjiahou.

"I really didn't expect that the colt had such a good relationship with the royal family." He Zhen frowned and sighed, "It's not just that Your Majesty asked us to keep the horse safe for the sake of face, but this horse is very important in the eyes of Your Majesty and the royal family, so I will work hard for a possibility and rush thousands of miles to help him!" ”

He Rong was a little puzzled when he heard this, so he asked, "What is the possibility?" ”

"Look!" He Zhen listened and patiently explained to his son, "King Yan is garrisoning Jiangyin, he is coming to Xiangshan County, how much time will it take on the road?" When he received the news, it should have been that the problem of pirates was not so obvious, and he could come. Moreover, if he wants to come, His Majesty must know, at least if His Majesty acquiesces. ”

"Could it be that it just so happened that King Yan inspected Haiphong and arrived in our Guangdong?" When He Gui heard this, he still had doubts, and immediately asked.

He Zhen listened, shook his head, and replied categorically: "In the past, the pirates along the coast of Guangdong, that is, petty fights, at least did not cause much movement on the official side. There are Guangdong sailors, who are competent enough. Therefore, even if the king of Yan wants to patrol the coast, there is no need to come to our Guangdong. There is a constant war in the north, and it is necessary to ensure the smooth flow of shipping, and there are Japanese pirates making trouble, so that side should be the focus of coastal defense! ”

Hearing his analysis, which had been said so clearly, the He family was silent.

This colt is really big!

After a while, He Zhen broke the silence and said with a little regret: "I really didn't expect that when I resigned and returned to my hometown, such a powerful colt rose on the side of Jingshi!" ”

Speaking of this, he glanced at his sons and said, "You guys are watching, that Yongjiahou will be sad!" ”

"Impossible, right?" When He Rong heard this, he asked a little surprised, "Yongjiahou is a hereditary marquis with iron coupons, and he is only higher than a horse, how can he get Yongjiahou?" No matter what, only the emperor can come forward, right? ”

"Hehe, Yongjiahou jumped in front and fought with the horse, if the horse wants to continue to implement his new policy in Xiangshan County, he will definitely kill the chicken and the monkey." He Zhen listened, but he didn't think about it, so he said in a very affirmative tone, "Although I'm not sure what means he used, I can be sure that Yongjiahou will definitely be the first to be targeted!" ”

Speaking of this, he immediately looked at He Gui and instructed him solemnly: "When you do things over there, your hands and feet must be clean, and you must not leave any heads and tails, so that the colt will know that we are secretly dealing with him." This person is not easy to offend, at least now is the time when he is sharp, and it is not appropriate to face him. ”

"Dad, rest assured, outsiders will never be able to catch any evidence of our He family." When He Gui heard this, he immediately assured.

He Rong frowned, and asked his father: "Then what should I do next, not to mention that the horse wants to distribute the grain and land to the public, and the salt part, if he does it and implements it, we won't be able to make any money from it!" ”

Grain land is the foundation, salt is the bulk of the money, these two interests are passive, for any Haoqiang, it is hurtful.

When He Zhen heard this, he didn't answer immediately, but frowned, obviously depressed in his heart.

After a while, he finally sighed and said, "I don't know how many people in the world are richer than our He family, they are not in a hurry, what are we anxious about." In short, remember that when you are engaged in battle with a strong enemy, do not rush to the front, lest you be used as a gunman. When it really comes time to choose, choose the strong side, so that the family can not fall. As long as there are people, there can be others, understand? ”

Back then, it was because of this principle that he chose to return to the Ming Dynasty without a fight.

He Rong was very unwilling to hear it, but he couldn't help but listen to his father's words.

So, he thought in his heart, Dad is so confident, maybe this time he was wrong. That colt is only sixteen or seventeen years old, how can he be so powerful?

Look, anyway, Yongjiahou rushed to the front, and let's see their results.

If Yongjiahou has nothing to do, then the He family's side must not let that horse toss, and if it is time to make another move, it will be another shot!

……………………

King Yan led the elite sailors of the Ming Dynasty to Guangzhou, and the people along the way came to see the excitement, and the officials on the Guangzhou side naturally knew it for the first time, so they came to the dock early to greet them.

Yongjiahou is no exception, he is just a marquis, he is a vassal king, and he can still hold a shelf in front of the horse, but he still has no qualifications in front of the vassal king.

Of course, he knew that when he greeted King Yan, it would not be so harmonious. However, if you want to say that he is afraid, that is also impossible.

In his opinion, although King Yan has a higher title than him, he can't control him. What else can you do with a smile?

The Guangzhou wharf has long been vacated for docks. As soon as the Yanwang sailor arrived, he beat the gongs and drums, and immediately became lively.

Guangdong respects Yongjiahou, and takes the political envoy of Guangdong and others to greet King Yan.

"Dad, the colt is also there, right next to that Yan King!" Zhu Yu found out about the situation, and then whispered to Zhu Liangzu.

"Bird him!" Zhu Liangzu himself saw it, and immediately snorted coldly.

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at his eldest son Zhu Xian on the other side, and reprimanded him: "In front of so many people, if you go to tie up with that colt again, I will lose my face, I won't be able to kill you!" ”

Speaking of this, he paused again, and said hatefully: "Why did our Zhu family come out of a wreck like you!" ”

He was even thinking about passing on his title to his second son in the future.

Zhu Xian didn't talk back, looking at the horse and King Yan talking and laughing, his eyes were full of worry.

Finally, the flagship docked safely, King Yan and the horse disembarked side by side, and Jinghaihou and Lan Yu and others surrounded them to disembark.

Yongjiahou and others greeted them according to their official positions.

Everyone else knelt, but the Marquis of Yongjia was high, and he just bowed.

It stands to reason that King Yan should let them be exempt at this time.

As a result, I saw that King Yan was just staring at the person in front of him, and shouted coldly: "Come on, take it for Lone!" ”

When the guards behind him heard this, they immediately stepped forward quickly and grabbed Yongjiahou at once.

This scene made these people who came to greet them never expect.

As soon as this King Yan met, he wanted to arrest Yongjiahou?

Even Zhu Liangzu himself was stunned, and it wasn't until he was grabbed by Zhu Di's personal guards that he came back to his senses, and while struggling, he looked at Zhu Di and asked angrily, "Why did you take me?" What am I guilty of? I am a hereditary marquis, I have an iron coupon, without His Majesty's will, which of you would dare to do it? ”

Seeing him struggling, the few guards who grabbed him didn't talk nonsense, and directly drew a knife and put it on his neck, as long as he dared to move again, his neck would see blood.

This time, Zhu Liangzu didn't dare to struggle, but he still shouted there: "Why arrest me, don't give me a reason, I don't accept it!" ”

Having said that, he knew very well in his heart that it must have something to do with the colt.

The others looked at this scene with shocked looks on their faces.

As soon as King Yan met, he didn't say anything, he wanted to arrest Yongjiahou, and he also took a knife to Yongjiahou's neck, this is going to be a big incident!

They didn't dare to speak, who knew if this Yan King would target someone next?

People even said that Yongjiahou would be caught! And even more so others?

But they are also a little puzzled, Yongjiahou is right, he is a hereditary marquis with iron coupons, although your Yan King is more noble, but you can't just be caught, what kind of crime is there?

Could it be that just because of the evil horse, King Yan can be lawless?

Zhu Di heard Zhu Liangzu shouting there, so he shouted coldly: "This king is ordered to suppress the widows and investigate the traitors." There is enough reason to suspect that you are a thief and a traitor. ”

"......" everyone, including Yongjiahou, was dumbfounded when they heard this reason.

How many brain-dead people would believe that the dignified hereditary marquis would be the internal response of the thief?

King Yan is joking, it's not like that, right?

However, King Yan did just that, and the knife was on Yongjiahou's neck.

The real scene happening in front of me feels so unreal.

Yongjiahou came back to his senses after being shocked, and suddenly shouted angrily: "You are not convinced, you are framing you, it must be a ghost playing tricks, how can my dignified marquis be a thief, who will believe it?" ”

Zhang Yifan listened, sneered and said: "An ordinary marquis will definitely not be a thief, but you are such a brain-dead, maybe you can do such a thing, it is not strange at all!" ”

Speaking of this, he raised his voice a little, and then sped up his voice and asked: "Otherwise, I have repeatedly begged you to send a sailor to clear the pirates, and the emperor's will, you have the responsibility to help, why don't you send a sailor to clear the pirates?" Xiangshan County asked you for help, did you send troops? If you're not a pirate, why are you so cooperating with pirates? ”

These words, on the surface, the logic is valid, and it can be deduced that even if Yongjiahou is not a pirate insider, there is collusion.

However, these officials present actually knew in their hearts what the real reason was.

However, at this moment, they can't say anything, and they don't want to get into trouble, so they can only protect themselves.

When Yongjiahou heard this, he immediately quibbled: "Who said that I won't send it, it's just that the sailor needs to be overhauled and can't go to sea in the short term." And I also sent troops, but I just needed to raise food and grass, so it was a little slower. ”

These reasons are the words he had thought of a long time ago, and they were used to deal with them at this time.

When Zhu Di heard this, he shouted: "Where is Lan Yu? ”

"The last general!" When Lan Yu, who was standing behind him, heard this, he immediately stepped forward and responded with his fists clenched.

Zhu Di looked at him and ordered loudly: "Immediately lead the troops, take over the military camp and the water division, and verify the truth for Lonely?" ”

"The last general obeys!" When Lan Yu heard this, he immediately shouted the order, and then waved his hand, and the warship that stopped at the dock immediately came down with a group of soldiers.

Anyone who saw this scene knew at once that King Yan was ready to do this a long time ago!

When Zhu Liangzu saw this, he was immediately dumbfounded.

In the past, he controlled the military camp and the water division, he was the boss, he had the final say, what he said was what he said, and the people below did not dare to disobey, and outsiders could not investigate.

But King Yan came over with his own soldiers and horses, and he took over the military camp and the water division, as long as he checked it a little, he could know what the truth was.

The sailors didn't really need to be overhauled at all, and the army didn't receive a military order to send troops.

In this case, only Zhu Liangzu's corresponding subordinates can take all the guilt off and say that they deceived Zhu Liangzu, and he can get away with it.

But the key problem is that Zhu Liangzu led the army, and it was all harsh military law. In the past, when he attacked Shudi, he killed the generals and colonels without authorization and was punished, and even the guards were not good enough to cut off the heads of a group of soldiers.

With his style of leading soldiers, it is simply impossible to want his subordinates to die for him.

No, Zhu Liangzu himself knew this, and he was a little panicked, so he hurriedly changed his words: "I said, I said, I did this in order to teach the horse a lesson and let him change the law of grain land distribution to the public!" ”

Zhang Yifan heard this, but he sneered: "Seeing that the matter is about to be revealed, and using despicable excuses to deny it? Hehe, the affairs of my Xiangshan County are directly under the jurisdiction of the emperor, when will it be your turn to point fingers, should it be that you think you are more powerful than the emperor, so you want to do it on your behalf? ”

"......" Zhu Liangzu was dumbfounded when he heard it.

If you admit it, it will be even more serious. No matter how he was, he didn't dare to climb on the emperor's head.

Liao Yongzhong is older than him and has more military achievements, and he was originally going to be a duke, but he was given death because of the usurpation of the dragon and phoenix; And if he admits that he stretched out his hand to take care of the affairs of Xiangshan County, and was so buttoned by the horse, it would be contempt for the emperor, and it would not be lighter than Liao Yongzhong's arrogance of the dragon and phoenix.

This consequence is definitely not something that Zhu Liangzu can bear!

At this moment, Zhu Liangzu finally remembered how powerful this horse's mouth cannon kung fu was!

I can't shout if I want to shout injustice, I am full of grievances in my stomach, and the whole person is about to explode.

At this moment, he really regretted it a little, maybe he shouldn't have jumped out and was the first to go against the colt!

However, what is good about not dying is that when his second son saw this situation, he jumped out and argued: "Don't spew blood, even if this matter goes to the court, the prime minister knows what kind of person my father is!" ”
