Chapter 387: King Li Xiucheng!
This Ye Zongcheng was originally a talent in Xu Cuo Village.
Because he knows a few words, he also serves as a teacher in the village, and occasionally writes letters or complaints for the people in the village.
This person has always been able to speak well and has a good reputation in the village.
But this man, unlucky.
Since he was admitted to Xiucai, he has been trying to defeat his younger brother one after another, and he has taken the exam eight times in a row, and his name has fallen to Sun Shan.
Although the people in the village respected him on the surface, they were both sarcastic and sympathetic behind the scenes.
Ye Zongcheng was already arrogant, and when he was praised by the big guys on weekdays, his spirit was even higher. fell off the list one after another, which dealt a great blow to him, and in the end he couldn't afford to get sick.
After a high fever, Ye Zongcheng said that he had seen the Supreme Heavenly God.
The Supreme God told him that he was the incarnation of the Supreme God on earth, and that he had come down from the earthly eons.
In order to share the sufferings of the people, that is why he suffers everywhere.
But that's all, it's still not enough to share the suffering of the common people.
So the Supreme God, under the instruction of Providence, let him open his mind, recall his true identity, and lead the people out of the sea of suffering. So, he founded the Cult of God, established its doctrine, and in two years, carried forward his Cult and grew it to its current size.
Until Chang Yuchun brought troops to clean up.
However, even if Chang Yuchun did not bring troops, they also intended to develop towards the Central Plains.
Fujian is close to the sea, although real estate is also abundant.
But there is not enough food.
Speaking of food, Sun Zhengde sighed.
"In today's Fujian, there are many people and few places, and I don't know how many people are starving. These people have no choice but to go away and beg for food. "But where is it easy to live away from home?
It's a blessing not to starve to death on the road.
If it weren't for Ye Zongcheng, I don't know how many people would die in the entire Fujian.
Chu Ze glanced at Sun Zhengde again, and unceremoniously pierced his false face: "According to what you say, Ye Zongcheng is still a savior, since he is the savior, then he must be benevolent, why let people rob everywhere?" ”
"That's not looting, that's integrating resources!" Sun Zhengde forcibly defended.
Chu Ze looked at him mockingly and asked, "Do you believe it yourself?" ”
"Of course...... Unbelief. ”
Seeing Sun Zhengde change his words, Chu Ze silently put down his raised hand.
Chu Ze put the cup back on the table and said, "The real god should have mercy on the world, not for his own selfishness, he will rob other people's things, and he should not disregard human life in vain. Sun Zhengde, because you are still a reader, you have read all the books in the belly of a dog. ”
Sun Zhengde dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.
scolded in his heart, Chu Ze is a bastard!
If you can't say it, you can use force to coerce people.
Chu Ze seemed to see his thoughts, and sneered: "Force is also a kind of strength, if you have the force to resist us, will you still be detained by us here to suffer this nest?" ”
"......" is really.
Sun Zhengde was even angrier.
The carriage was quiet for a while, and there was only the sound of Chu Ze making tea in the air.
Just now Sun Zhengde talked about Ye Zong's family history, and Chu Ze thought of a person.
- Li Xiucheng, the king of Chuang.
How similar are the methods used by these two people?
But what did people do in the early stage?
It is to win people's hearts.
But this is called Ye Zongcheng, who directly searched for the people's fat and people's ointment, but these people were completely brainwashed.
The man in front of him is a living example.
It seems that to deal with this person, not only must Ye Zongcheng be eradicated, but also fundamentally started.
From Sun Zhengde's words just now, it is not difficult to find that the reason why Ye Zongcheng is so popular is nothing more than the livelihood of Fujian.
The hardships of the people of Fujian also show that the local parents and officials are incompetent.
Tomorrow they will be able to arrive in Fujian, and they will take advantage of this opportunity to take a good look at the situation in Fujian.
Chu Ze already knew from Sun Zhengde that the people of Fujian were living a difficult life.
But he didn't expect that the situation would be even worse than he expected.
The whole of Fujian is in a mess.
Along the way, they found that the army here often harassed the people, the general was not like a general, the soldier was not like a soldier, and the hanger was like a ruffian and a hooligan.
Not to mention eating and drinking for nothing, there are even cases of robbing people's daughters.
As a result, the people of Fujian were full of resentment towards the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.
In addition, there are also many harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes in Fujian.
When Chu Ze and them entered the city, they actually paid nearly five taels of silver to enter the city.
And the reason, simply because they are in business and have money.
And that's not even counting the tea money for those soldiers.
Zhu Fan was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.
Chu Ze stopped the people: "Counting all the people in our team, how many can you win?" ”
"That's better than bad." Zhu Fan was indignant.
Chu Ze said: "If we don't have an advantage in fighting now, maybe we will expose our identity, we want to see the real Fujian people's livelihood, if they know our identity, what else do you see?" These useless officials can't manage the local people's livelihood, but they must be very skilled in covering our eyes. You bear with it first, and when we understand the situation here, my brother will avenge you. ”
"Huh!"
Zhu Fan was so angry that his teeth itched again, and then he followed Chu Ze honestly.
Since they entered Fujian, they have been inquiring about the situation in Fujian until they reached Haokou County and before they joined Chang Yuchun.
Sun Zhengde was detained and couldn't run away, so he could only follow behind Chu Ze and the others.
Watching the two of them inquire about the political situation in Fujian, Sun Zhengde let out a cold snort from his nostrils.
He didn't believe that this prince, who didn't touch the spring water with his fingers and had never even seen a few poor people, and an official who only knew how to make some inventions and creations, could still manage the chaos in Fujian.
Chu Ze's behavior, in the eyes of Sun Zhengde, was tantamount to pretense.
Just show him.
But in fact, Chu Ze really saw some problems.
He stood on the side of the road, looked at the large area of fertile land in front of him, and the dense crops in the field, and said: "The situation in Fujian is not optimistic. ”
Chu Ze took Zhu Fan to the field.
As he walked, he said: "Fujian has good land, and there are also people who breed it. But there are too many people and too little land, and even if all these fields are planted, it will still not be enough for the people to make ends meet. Zhu Zhang, you look ......at it," Chu Ze pointed to the acre on the left side of the field that was about to crack, "We remember that in later generations, it was recorded that in the early days of Hongwu, because our emperor did not pay much attention to these, it led to a very chaotic political situation here, the Ming army was almost rampant into bandits, and the water conservancy was in disrepair, resulting in a very serious flood and drought disaster in Fujian. Coupled with the corruption of officials and the rampant piracy, the displacement of the people was even more serious. ”
Even if there is no Ye Zongcheng now, Li Zongcheng, Yang Zongcheng and so on will appear in the future.
In short, if you want to completely solve the disaster in Fujian, you can start with the people's livelihood in order to completely eradicate Ye Zongcheng's first-class.
Otherwise, everything is just a palliative, not a cure.
