0164 [Seizure of the Eunuch of the Chincha]
The eunuch who was ordered to conquer Zhu Guoxiang for the second time was called Fang Mao, and he was the godson of the great eunuch Tan Zhen.
Although Song Huizong was in a hurry, Fang Mao was not in a hurry, eating and drinking all the way, and constantly asking officials along the way for gold and silver.
The unsuccessful scholar has already returned to his hometown, and the eunuch Fang Mao is still grinding on the road.
It was not until the end of the sixth lunar month that Fang Mao finally arrived in Daming Village.
"Zhu Guoxiang lives here?" Fang Mao's first reaction was that there was nothing to fish.
The Yangzhou official in charge of being the guide replied: "This is it, the last expedition, I also led the way, and the wharf had not been repaired at that time." ”
Fang Mao said: "You go and report, we wait." ”
Xu Yan jumped off the boat, ran quickly to Zhu Guoxiang's house, and came back with Mrs. Yan and Shen Yourong after a short time.
Fang Mao asked, "Why are there only female dependents?" ”
Shen Yourong replied: "The nobles in the good religion know that the grandson went to guide the farming. ”
"What ploughing is there in this season? Hurry up and call him back! Fang Mao just refused to get off the boat, he wanted to wait for Zhu Guoxiang to greet him ceremoniously.
Shen Yourong has already reached the month of labor, half a month at the earliest, and a month at the latest. She stood in the sun with a big belly, and waited like that, because the dead eunuch would not let anyone go.
After forty minutes, Zhu Guoxiang finally appeared, and the first time was not to visit the eunuch, but to help his wife to the inn to enjoy the coolness.
Fang Mao felt that he was being ignored, and when Zhu Guoxiang appeared again, he immediately asked coldly: "You are so snub to angels?" ”
Zhu Guoxiang was also angry in his heart, and asked rhetorically: "The inner man was pregnant for eight months, but she was exposed to the scorching sun, is this the truth of the Son of Heaven recruiting talents?" It's not like a conquest, it's more like retrieving fugitives! ”
Fang Mao doesn't care about this at all, his godfather is Tan Zhen, and Tan Zhen is Yang Jian's henchman.
I usually walk sideways in Tokyo, so how do you put the countryside in mind?
As for Zhu Guoxiang's favor after being conquered, Fang Mao did not consider this situation at all. is fortunate to be favored by the official family again, can you have the grace of Yang Jian and Tan Zhen?
Fang Mao had been delayed halfway for a long time, and the emperor was urging him tightly, and at this moment he actually shouted: "The official family has a will, if Zhu Guoxiang should not be punished, he will immediately be forcibly tied up and go to Tokyo." Come on, tie this guy up! ”
The eunuch also brought a team of forbidden troops in front of the palace.
Zhang Guangdao, who had long wanted to rebel, was already angry in his heart because his mother was exposed to the scorching sun, and it was even more unbearable at the moment, and he roared angrily: "Knock on the gong!" ”
"Dangdang, dang!"
The shopkeeper of the inn was Yu Shanwei, who took out a gong and stood at the door and tapped it wildly.
Several forbidden soldiers stepped forward to arrest Zhu Guoxiang, and Zhang Guangdao carried sticks and immediately led people to stop in front.
Nearby villagers heard the gong and rushed here. Some people are carrying hoes, some are carrying sickles, some are carrying kitchen knives, and the village security guards are holding Pu knives.
In an instant, more than 20 people came, and more villagers were shouting and running.
Fang Mao was so frightened that he hurriedly ran back to the boat, and said inwardly: "Are you waiting for a rebellion?" ”
Shen Yourong was afraid that things would get bigger, so she came out with her stomach up and secretly pulled her husband's sleeve.
Zhu Guoxiang took a few steps forward and asked, "Where is Your Excellency's waist card?" Where is the Instrument of Origination? As soon as you come, you will use knives and guns, who knows if you are a fake angel! ”
Fang Mao took out his waist card and paperwork: "You come on the boat alone, just show you." ”
The official from Yangzhou also said: "Duke Yuanzhang, this is really a noble person sent by the official family. ”
Zhu Guoxiang asked: "This is to recruit talents?" ”
The official smiled bitterly and was silent, he had long seen that this eunuch was unhappy.
There were also eunuchs who recruited the Zhu family's father and son before, although they were greedy, but they still had face, and the basic rules were still being followed.
Now this one doesn't seem to have a brain. asked for bribes in public in Xingyuan Mansion, and also asked for bribes in public in Yangzhou, and even arrested people directly in Daming Village.
What the hell?
This kind of brainless eunuch not only existed in the late Northern Song Dynasty, but also existed in large numbers. They are very smart in Tokyo, they are all masters of drilling camps, but when they get to the place, their IQ is clear, and they can do anything ridiculous.
Zhu Guoxiang was given a headache, and he had to think of ways to solve the problem.
The two sides confronted each other, and soon the brothers Deng Chun and Deng Xia, with more security guards and tea workers, came on the "main battleship" left by the bandits.
There are also hundreds of villagers, running along the river, copying all kinds of guys in their hands.
They heard that the eunuchs were going to arrest Zhu Xianggong, and in the future, Daming Village would become the same as elsewhere. This is unbearable, even if you hide in the mountains and become a bandit, you must save Zhu Xianggong, otherwise everyone will not have a good life.
Immediately afterwards, Tian San also led the new immigrants to kill from the side of the abandoned tea mountain.
Six or seven hundred villagers, men, women, and children, surrounded more than a dozen eunuchs and forbidden soldiers.
Even Meng Zhao came out with the students, still carrying a bench in his hand.
Meng Zhao has a weak personality, and he was terrified when he saw the emperor, and his legs did not obey the call while walking. He could only recite "Mencius" silently to embolden himself: "I am good at nurturing my heroic spirit." It is qi, the largest to the strongest, and it is harmless to be directly raised, and it is stuffed between heaven and earth. It is also qi, with righteousness and Tao; Nothing, discouragement. It is born of righteousness, and it is ...... to take it from unrighteousness."
After reciting silently several times, Meng Zhao's voice trembled and shouted: "Emasculation, I'm not afraid of you!" ”
The students are all little children, and they only know what the teacher says, and they immediately shouted: "Eunuch, I'm not afraid of you!" Eunuch, I'm not afraid of you......"
Seeing that the matter was getting bigger, the Yangzhou officials were so anxious that they persuaded: "Yuan Zhanggong, why is this so, you can't offend the emperor, let the villagers disperse quickly." ”
The merchants who stayed temporarily in the inn brought their men out to see the excitement, and they were all frightened by this meeting.
Zhu Guoxiang was still pondering, not knowing how to end.
Can he blame Zhang Guangdao for making decisions without authorization and ringing the gong to summon the villagers?
At this point, it is impossible to reconcile the contradictions, so it will simply make a bigger fuss.
Dean Zhu is only cautious, not weak.
"Surround the boat, arrest people!"
With Zhu Guoxiang's order, Zhang Guangdao and Tian San led the villagers to attack those forbidden troops on the shore. Deng Chun and Deng Xia rowed a small boat, surrounded the official boat where the eunuch was, and threw out the hook and began to climb.
"Stop them!" Fang Mao's face turned pale with fright, and after yelling, he crawled into the cabin.
The more than a dozen forbidden troops who remained on the shore had not fought since they could remember, and in the face of the siege of hundreds of villagers, they immediately threw away their weapons and chose to surrender.
Moments later, the ship was occupied.
Deng Chun came out with a eunuch in one hand like a chicken, and threw it in front of Zhu Guoxiang after getting off the boat.
"All tied." Zhu Guoxiang's face was expressionless.
Fang Mao shouted: "The surname is Zhu, our family is Qincha, if you dare to touch half of our hair, just wait to destroy the family!" ”
Zhu Guoxiang said: "Plug his mouth." ”
Mrs. Yan was almost paralyzed with fright: "How can this be born, how is this good......
Although Shen Yourong is also worried, she believes that her husband will not mess around, and there must be a way to solve the problem. She helped Mrs. Yan: "Auntie, men do things, let's go home and wait." ”
Zhang Guangdao led people to board the ship to search, and soon carried out a box.
The chests were full of gold and silver, and there were all kinds of shapes, including gold and silver coins with square holes, and gold collars, silver collars, gold cakes, silver cakes, gold leaves, and silver leaves......
Needless to say, it must have been extortion along the way.
Zhu Guoxiang said: "Interrogate separately and ask where the gold and silver came from. Don't beat or abuse, just don't let them sleep. ”
A group of wrecks, how can they withstand fatigue interrogation?
Fang Mao didn't sleep for two days and two nights, feeling like he was dying, and he vomited everything in his head. not only spit out the details of this blackmail, but also confessed a lot of previous, and signed and stamped his fingerprint on the confession in a daze.
Immediately, Zhu Guoxiang convened a meeting.
"This eunuch can't be killed, and he can't be released, otherwise a catastrophe will inevitably come," Zhu Guoxiang said, "For the sake of today's plan, I can only go to Beijing in person and escort them to the emperor to complain." After I left, Zhang Guangdao was in charge of Daming Village, and Yourong was responsible for managing the household registration books. Meng Zhao and Yu Shanwei continued to manage the village school and inn, and assisted in the management of the village. Tian Er manages the tea business. The rest is upright, and the responsibilities remain unchanged. ”
After speaking, Zhu Guoxiang took out a three-year development plan and asked everyone to implement it.
Meng Zhao asked, "Will the officials listen to us?" ”
"There's one thing he'll listen to." Zhu Guoxiang said.
The next day, Zhu Guoxiang took people back to the cottage and personally suspended the rope and descended to the cliff of the back mountain.
Compared with the previous cultivation of Ganoderma lucidum, he is now more experienced.
First, choose a natural environment that is most suitable for the growth of Ganoderma lucidum, and imitate the mushroom technique to grow Ganoderma lucidum. Next, I will no longer try my luck, but carefully move the basswood that has begun to grow together to give them enough conditions to grow.
Then, many small reishi mushrooms automatically aggregate into one large reishi.
It is 57 cm in diameter and continues to grow.
But I can't wait, now I have to pick it and take it to the emperor to offer.
Zhu Guoxiang shook the rope, and the villagers pulled him up. Seeing the giant Lingzhi in his hand, everyone was dumbfounded, and the eyes that looked at Zhu Guoxiang were even more awe-inspiring.
Such a divine object must be given by the immortals!
A few days later, Zhu Guoxiang still did not leave. Xu ran back to Yangzhou as quickly as possible, and brought He Zhizhou, Li Tongju, and Cao Peng, as well as a cadre to join the army.
He Zhizhou was as anxious as an ant in a hot pot, and said in a pleading tone: "Yuan Zhanggong, how can you detain Qincha? Let them go. ”
Li Tong also said: "This is a big crime of killing the head!" ”
Zhu Guoxiang took the giant Ganoderma lucidum from the house and said, "Recently, I got an auspicious rui, and I plan to dedicate it to the official family." ”
As soon as Xiangrui came out, the officials stopped talking.
Who doesn't know what kind of urine the emperor is? With this 10,000-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, Zhu Guoxiang can be invincible.
Zhu Guoxiang asked people to bring gold and silver again: "This is the money that the eunuchs extorted from everyone, and they will all be recovered, and they can sign the deed of receipt." ”
The officials looked at each other, and they preferred to break the bank.
"Don't you really want to?" Zhu Guoxiang took out another thing, "This is the eunuch's confession, if you don't want to get back the gold and silver, I can only take it to the capital and hand it over to the official." ”
Li Tongju reached out to get the money, and immediately signed his name: "I'm afraid of an egg, we are not at fault, we are just being blackmailed by eunuchs." ”
The dead eunuch traveled all the way, blackmailing dozens of officials along the way, and Zhu Guoxiang had to return all the money, and by the way, he got the receipts of these officials.
Song Huizong may not care about the extortion of money, but delaying the time for the expedition will definitely make the emperor furious.
A few days later, Shen Yourong gave birth to a daughter smoothly, and Zhu Guoxiang finally set off.
He was accompanied by Deng Chun, a strong man, and twenty-two other village security guards.
As for the eunuchs and the forbidden army, they were all tightly bound.
Dean Zhu generally doesn't make trouble, if he wants to do it, he will make a big one!
