Sun Hong, the minister of Taipu Temple, knelt on the stone floor.
Sun Hong only promoted people, but he followed Shi Heng's path and bribed Xing'an to become the Prime Minister of Taipu Temple.
In the sixth year of Jingtai's appointment as the minister of the temple, he died of illness. He spent a lot of money to surpass the Shaoqing and succeeded him as the minister of Taipu Temple.
Ever since Shi Heng's rebellion, he had been worried.
As a result, a year has almost passed, and the emperor has not settled the consequences. He thought that it was over.
Unexpectedly, he was suddenly summoned to the palace.
Kneeling in the ice and snow, he was not too cold, but felt frightened.
When he saw Yu Kang walking out of Yangxin Hall.
He quickly lowered his head.
Yu Qian is aware of his relationship with Shi Heng.
There was no more sound from the Yangxin Hall.
The cold wind was getting colder and colder, and the sky was getting darker and darker, but the emperor did not announce their entry into the palace.
When the key to the palace door was about to be released, Feng Xiao reminded: "Your Majesty, the officials of Taipu Temple are waiting outside the palace."
Zhu Qiyu glanced at the memorial on the case and sighed: "I won't turn over the cards tonight. I will live in the Yangxin Hall."
"Your Majesty, the imperial concubine has found a good color and wants to present it to you."
Zhu Qiyu raised his head: "Oh? Is the imperial concubine in good health?"
"My body is in excellent condition, and the palace doctors and palace officials dare not neglect him in the slightest." Feng Xiao immediately replied.
"If the child is born successfully, all will be rewarded. If something goes wrong, all will be put to death. Kill the nine tribes and tell them to take care of them."
Zhu Qiyu's eyes were sinister, and he immediately asked: "Who does she value?"
"Hui Huangye, she is the youngest daughter of Shangshu Bai's family. However, her mother's status is not high and she is a concubine. She was raised up after the death of Mrs. Bai Gui. She is considered a continuation of the marriage, but her natal family has no status."
Concubine Tang chose Bai Gui's daughter.
Is this to serve as a civilian official?
It seems that she already knew that the baby in her belly was a boy, and started to make plans in advance.
Tan was supported by his father and ancestors, who were also civil servants.
Hu and Lin are also civil servants behind their backs.
Behind the Song family and the Mao family are nobles.
She, Tang Yunyan, was the only one with a small and unsatisfactory background, so she chose the Bai family, hoping to take the opportunity to win over Bai Gui as her backer.
She paved the way for her son to become the crown prince.
Zhu Qiyu tapped the table with his fingertips: "What do you think?"
"Your Majesty, this slave, I dare not say anything!" Feng Xiao was so frightened that he knelt on the ground.
"You are my close servant and confidant, what can't you say?"
Feng Xiao gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, you have placed too much emphasis on Wu Xun's sage. At this critical moment, you should be appropriately deflected."
It means that the emperor moved Jiangxi.
A compromise must be made. In addition to holding on to the military group, we must also transfer benefits to the civilian group.
Bai Gui and Geng Jiuchou must be captured.
Geng Jiuchou only had one granddaughter who was the same age as him, and she was quite young.
Bai Gui's daughter is just right.
This is sending a signal to the civil servants that the emperor only wants money and does not care about anything else.
"Take it."
Zhu Qiyu has to transform into a human form again, a seeder.
"My slave obeys the order!"
Feng Xiao kowtowed: "Your Majesty, Bai Bin is serving as a guard in the palace. Do you want to meet him?"
"What are his talents?"
"His Majesty, he is very mediocre, but I heard that his second son Bai Yue is extremely smart and may be able to help the Emperor in the future."
Baiyue?
Zhu Qiyu asked: "How old are you this year?"
"Only three years old..."
Feng Xiao glanced at the emperor and found that the emperor's face turned gloomy: "Go away! You are entertaining me! What kind of intelligence can a three-year-old child see?"
"I don't dare!" Feng Xiao kowtowed.
"Bring Bai Binxuan here tomorrow and see if he can use it." Zhu Qiyu asked him to get up.
Feng Xiao stood on one side with his waist hunched over.
"By the way, where is Geng Yu's daughter?"
Geng Yu is the son of Geng Jiuchou. He was a Jinshi in the fifth year of Jingtai. He is now in charge of the Agricultural Bureau and is very capable.
"Your Majesty, he is also serving you in the imperial concubine's palace, but he is only nine years old this year and is still a child. The imperial concubine has to coax him."
Zhu Qiyu was speechless: "Let's raise him for another two years."
Feng Xiao said yes, and made a note in his mind that he had to explain that he should respect Mr. Geng and do not let her have any grudges.
"Let Sun Hong come in."
He Zhien opened the curtain and opened the door to call for help.
Sun Hong and others all knelt stiffly. They responded, slowly got up, and walked into the hall.
He Zhien did not allow them to approach, and asked them to kneel at the door to meet His Majesty, saving the air-conditioning and bumping into His Majesty.
"Ma Zheng is in ruins and cannot make ends meet. This is all due to your Taipu Temple. Sun Hong, tell me how should I reward you?"
Can I give you a foot of red?
"Wei Chen is guilty, Wei Chen is guilty!" Sun Hong kept kowtowing.
An official from Taipu Temple cried bitterly.
"Are you wronged?"
Zhu Qiyu could vaguely see figures through the silk screen.
It was cold and freezing, but the palace was as warm as spring. He was wearing thin clothes, so he was worried about being hit by the air-conditioning, so he made an edict through the screen.
"The humble minister is guilty and dare not be wronged. I beg your Majesty to punish me!" Sun Hongzhan was frightened.
"Now that you know your guilt, why are you still crying?"
Zhu Qiyu suddenly shouted: "Who is crying!"
"Girls are chirping!"
"Why are you crying!"
"Did you commit a crime? Or did I scold you wrongly?"
Zhu Qiyu stood up: "Catch the one who cried, give him thirty lashes, and hang them on the Meridian Gate! He will be dismissed from his official position and will never be hired again!"
"Trash knows how to cry!"
"The government of horses is not good, and the management of beasts and beasts is not good! It's nothing!"
"I haven't cursed anyone yet, so I'm going to cry on my own. What about mourning? Why don't you mourn in advance?"
The official wanted to beg for mercy, but the eunuch tied his mouth with a rope and slapped his mouth with a wooden stick. He was not allowed to speak. He opened the curtain and pushed the door open and dragged him out.
Sun Hong was frightened.
"Have you been greedy these years?"
"A small minister took the path of Shi Heng, jumped three times in a row, and became the minister of Taipus Temple."
"Just take it as it is, why is Ma Zheng getting worse and worse?"
"It's so bad that I don't even know how to take care of it!"
"How about you help me check the details? How should I manage this horse administration?"
Zhu Qiyu smiled and said irony, which made people sweat.
Sun Hong was trembling all over: "Your Majesty, your Majesty will listen to the reports from the ministers..."
"I won't listen!"
"Save that nonsense to the people below."
"Within three days, send 10 million taels of silver to the internal funds, and the corruption in your Taipus Temple will be over."
"I won't pursue it any further."
Zhu Qiyu wanted to expand the authority of Taipu Temple.
We need to clean up Taipu Temple first.
When Sun Hong heard about ten million taels of silver, he almost fainted and cried, "Your Majesty, even if you sell everyone in Taipu Temple, it's not worth the money!"
"Are you complaining to me now?"
"When you are greedy for money, why don't you give me a share?"
Zhu Qiyu held out three fingers: "I only give you three days, no matter what method you use, whether you rob, steal, extort, or sell yourself."
"I don't care, I just want to see the money."
"Don't say you're not greedy!"
Zhu Qiyu said in a stern tone: "In the second year of Jingtai, you gave Shi Heng 120,000 taels of silver. This money was given to Xing'an 70,000 taels, and Shi Heng kept 50,000 taels for himself."
"In the sixth year of Jingtai, you crossed Shi Heng and gave Xing'an 80,000 taels of silver to become the minister of the temple."
"Do you think I don't know?"
"Where did you get two hundred thousand taels of silver?"
"I don't have time to check on you, and I don't bother to check on you."
"Come back obediently, or I will tear apart your nine tribes and hang your dog's head on the city gate!"
Sun Hong's eyes widened!
The emperor even knew the specific figures!
So why is he holding back?
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." Sun Hong hesitated.
"What? You still don't want to pay back the money?"
Zhu Qiyu looked fierce: "Do you need me to reimburse you?"
"ah?"
“How did the national horse administration turn horses into nothing?”
"How did you destroy the racecourse?"
"How can you turn your money into nothing!"
"Do you need me to explain everything thoroughly?"
The officials of Taipu Temple were sweating like rain, and they all kowtowed to apologize.
"In three days, the money will be handed over. This is the first thing."
Zhu Qiyu's eyes were fierce: "The second thing is to find my horses for me. If there is one missing, I will let you become a horse!"
"According to the orthodox figure of fourteen years."
"No matter who you sold it to, bring it back to me."
"No matter who sells it to the people below, please give me back double the price of the horse, and then get the horse back. Not one less!"
"The Ming Dynasty belongs to me. How dare you take my things without my permission?"
Snapped!
A teacup passed over the screen and shattered to the ground.
"Kneel on it!"
Everyone was trembling.
Trembling, he knelt on the broken tea cup, his knees bleeding instantly.
The severe pain made them more awake.
If the emperor wants to investigate the horse administration, doesn't that mean that all the officials and dealers in the horse farm, including the common people who are greedy for cheap, will all die?
"Don't think about committing suicide when you go back."
"If I don't let you die, no one will die."
"Let Jin Yiwei accompany them."
"I want money, not dead people."
"Go back and collect some money."
Sun Hong trembled all over and kowtowed in despair to thank him.
He didn't even know how he got out of the palace.
All I know is that it's completely over.
"I ordered Ma Wen to be promoted to Beijing and serve as the minister of Taipusi." Zhu Qiyu had already identified candidates for Taipusi.
Ma Wensheng was a Jinshi in the second year of Jingtai. He was known as a treacherous and capable minister.
Now he is serving as an inspector in Fujian.
This year, he and Ma Wensheng wrote three times. Ma Wensheng's answer hit the mark. He was talented and he could fight.
I didn't want to promote him in advance, but the center really lacked capable ministers.
If there is no shortage of waste, there will be an abundance of waste in the world.
"Tell the Ministry of Rites that Enke will be opened in the spring."
Zhu Qiyu stood up, moved around, and said, "Bring Bai in, my life is really hard, I can't live in peace for a moment."
The Jinyiwei received the imperial edict from the palace, and Song Tang led the team to investigate Taipu Temple.
Mobei Palace.
"Are you bothered? My king's list is in Yuan Bin's hands. Why are you looking for Yuan Bin? Why are you looking for my king!"
Zhu Qizhen was furious.
Xu Gan was also angry because he was played by King Mobei.
The list that Cao Jixiang submitted to the palace was incomplete.
This shows that Zhu Qizhen has hidden something for a long time, and the list given to Yuan Bin is also half. The truly valuable list is still in Zhu Qizhen's hands.
"Please ask Mobei King to write down the list silently." Xu Ganzhen was a coward.
The emperor also ordered him to arrest the people on the list.
He was at his wits end.
He sent his subordinate Chen Wuyang to Nanzhili to investigate the case.
"How can I remember so many names? Go find Yuan Bin, go find Yuan Bin!" Zhu Qizhen closed the palace door and went back to sleep.
Xu Gan saw that Zhu Qizhen was biting him to death and refused to let go.
There was nothing he could do, and there was no point in going to jail.
What is the destiny of King Mobei?
And in Gansu.
Tan Li hasn't set off yet to go to Sima Wanhu Mansion.
Because after the central government approves, some goods need to be transported, such as silk, tea, porcelain, monks' robes, gold and silver, etc.
It's said to be a reward.
In fact, it is to buy land.
"Eunuch Qin, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it this year."
Kou Shen entered the government office and shook the snow off his felt hat: "The snow fell too early this year, so we might as well wait until spring next year before going."
Tan Li came to ask Kou Shen to give him elite troops to go to Sima Wanhu Mansion.
Answer Sima Wanhu Mansion is located in Maqin at the foot of Kunlun Mountain.
Its leader, Chuosi Ji Jiancan, sent an envoy to pay tribute to the horse in the second year of Jingtai.
He has a close relationship with Daming.
The imperial edict also stated that a temple could be built for Dasima.
The emperor is extremely sincere.
Tan Li kept a serious smile and shook his head resolutely: "Master Governor, your ambition is not limited to the little Gan Ning."
"That's it."
"Don't you think that the heavy snow in the sky is the best time to train troops?"
Duo Gandusi's soldiers are not very effective in combat.
What limited the Ming army was the climate, the harsh climate.
For military training in the winter, the most important thing is winter clothing.
It's not that the Ming army couldn't fight, it could also endure hardships. The most important thing was to be fed and clothed.
This year's winter clothing has already arrived, and the quality is good. Compared with previous years, it is much better.
"Your Majesty did not specify when to go or when to return."
"I just asked you to find out the information about Duogan Dusi."
Tan Li stood up, patted the snow on his shoulders, and asked, "What do you mean by this?"
Kou Shen was stunned: "Your Majesty, do you want to march westward next year?"
Tan Li nodded.
"But the Xining Guard is dilapidated and not enough to serve as a stable rear."
"If we want to march westward, we must repair the city of Xining, stockpile a large amount of food, and let the soldiers adapt to the climate of Hexi."
"Only before we can advance to the west."
It was also the climate that troubled Kou Shen.
If the seasons were like spring, we would have marched westward long ago!
The harsh climate in the northwest made it very time-consuming to station troops and food and plan marching routes.
Now it is time to work hard to develop ourselves, disrupt the outside world, and cause chaos in Hami, Turpan, and Hehuang. The Ming army is waiting to pick the peaches.
"A few days ago, you were more anxious than the emperor." Tan Li joked.
Kou Shen looked stunned.
After reading the central plan for Gan Ning, he realized that there was still a long way to go.
The Central Committee did not appoint Yuan Jie as governor of Ningxia, just to let him neutralize the disadvantages and advantages of Gan and Ning and integrate them with each other.
When the city of Ningxia is built, or when there is no shortage of population or food in Gansu, the governors of these two provinces will be replaced by the governor of one province.
"My Lord Governor, Hehuang's geographical environment is so harsh that we need to adapt to it."
Tan Li said seriously: "The emperor's secret decree to Gansu can be summed up in two words: adapt."
"We just have to keep training."
"One day, the central government decrees that it will be the time for you and me to make great achievements!"
Kou bowed deeply: "Just follow what Eunuch Tan said."
"How many people do you plan to take with you this time?"
Tan Li said: "Two thousand people, select the best among the best. This town will lead the most elite cavalry in Gansu to meet with Sima Wanhu Mansion!"
"Okay, I'll leave it to you to choose the generals!"
Kou Shen still has too many things to be busy with.
The population of Tubasi greatly made up for the population shortage of Gansu.
Settlement, build houses, build cities.
Those with family members will be accommodated as family units.
Place those with relatives together and distribute some food rations.
This placement was personally hosted by Kou Shen, who was very humane and tried his best to make Tuba Sibu feel like he was home.
The focus is also on strengthening Xining.
Xining will build a large city to control the large and giant cities in the northwest.
The river is frozen, so construction will definitely not be possible this year, but the plan must be made and submitted to the court, begging the central government to transport more raw materials next year and the central government to allocate more funds.
Kou Shen is not worried that the central government will not approve.
But money must be used wisely.
There is no need to worry about the number of people building the big city of Xining, Hami and Turpan are covered.
What is most lacking is a capable minister. He is old and it is really difficult for him to do his job.
He wrote to the court, hoping that His Majesty would allow him to send some Jinshi from this year's high school to help Gansu.
And in southern Zhili, Yingzhou.
Shen Xuan got on the boat and ran quickly, leaving behind all the money on the shore.
The sound of horse hooves is getting closer.
The leader is a brave general, with a white horse and a silver spear, a suit of silver armor, and a blazing gun on his waist.
Nearly a thousand cavalrymen were galloping on horseback.
I saw a boat sailing from a distance, approaching the river.
"Master Deputy Guard, the shore is full of silver!" The messenger swallowed his saliva.
Li Zhen's eyes were sharp: "What money are you looking at?"
"When you are a soldier, you will be paid. You will not owe anything to the court that should be paid to you, and no one is allowed to touch what you should not take!"
"This is a military order!"
The soldiers were frightened.
After getting closer, I discovered how the silver was black.
I have never seen this kind of money. Can this thing be spent?
The building ship Shen Xuan was on had already traveled far.
Shen Xuan thought it was safe.
As a result, there was a bang, like the sound of artillery?
When he walked out of the cabin and took a look, his vision suddenly went dark.
Directly opposite a dozen warships, Guo Xuan stood on the bow, directing the battle.
Guo Xuan's father is Guo Mao. Guo Mao made great contributions in delaying the Oara army in the Battle of Tumubao and was promoted to the commander of the capital.
In the sixth year of Jingtai, Guo Mao died and Guo Xuan inherited his father's duties.
Follow Song Wei out of Beijing.
He studied in the martial arts hall for half a year and was temporarily employed.
Because water warfare generals were scarce in the Ming Dynasty, he specialized in water warfare.
He came from Shouzhou.
Go up the river and intercept Shen Xuan.
First use cannons to bombard them, then get close to the ship and shoot arrows and blunderbuss, and finally hit them and fight against the ship's side.
The tactics are rigid and nothing new.
Shen Xuan's boat only had crossbows and no firearms, so he was quickly captured.
A group of people were escorted ashore.
"See Deputy Guard!" Guo Xuan saluted.
Li Zhen nodded: "Put these things on the ship and bring them back to Xincai."
Then he looked at Shen Xuan: "Take care of his tongue, don't kill him."
Li Zhen felt lonely and could only vent his anger on the bandits. He went into Huoshan to suppress the bandits, and then followed Yingshui to suppress the bandits.
Waiting for news by the way.
And in Xincai.
Zhu Yi saw Shen Xuan.
Along the way, Shen Xuan wanted to die, but could not die at all. Guo Xuan stared at him and sent five soldiers to stare at him. He was not allowed to eat, drink or move, and even urinated in his pants.
Shen Xuan met Zhu Yi.
At first glance, Zhu Yi felt that Shen Xuan looked familiar.
"Is your father Shen Wei?"
Shen Xuan lowered his head.
But he was dragged off the boat by Zhu Yi, and something colored flowed out of his trousers and flowed all over the floor.
Entering the courtyard gate, the courtyard door is closed.
Entering the room, Zhu Yi was alone.
"Are you Shen Wei's son?"
Zhu Yi knew Shen Wei too well.
Shen Wei was a strongman around Emperor Xuanzong, and the person who recommended him was Zhu Yi's father, Zhu Yong.
Because Shen Wei's father is Shen Xuan's grandfather, a domestic slave of his grandfather Zhu Neng, and a descendant of Cheng Guogong.
"I recognized the wrong person..."
Shen Xuan subconsciously gritted his teeth and committed suicide.
Even if he was beaten to death, he never expected that one day he would be interrogated by Zhu Yi!
"You dare to die? I will dig out all your family members so that you can die in peace!"
Zhu Yi pinched Shen Xuan's cheek: "You are Shen Wei's son, I will never admit it! Your family can't escape!"
"Death! Try to see if you can die!"
Shen Xuan cried bitterly.
That money turned out to be the rut for burying him.
"In the eighth year of Xuande's reign, a fire broke out in Shen Wei's home, and more than a dozen members of his family were killed in the flames."
Zhu Yi let go of him: "You start from the eighth year of Xuande!"
But also be prepared to prevent him from committing suicide at any time.
Shen Xuan slowly raised his eyes: "Mr. Cheng Guo, have you forgotten who you should be loyal to?"
really!
This is a big fish!
Snapped!
Zhu Yi slapped him in the face: "Isn't the current emperor the son of the late emperor?"
"Inheriting the unification is a matter of course!"
"What are you still dreaming about?"
Shen Xuan smiled miserably.
He didn't expect that these words would come out of Zhu Yi's mouth.
Duke Ying and Duke Cheng were the most supportive of the restoration of King Mobei.
However, the British male line was cut off.
Duke Cheng Guo became the lackey of the current emperor.
Is there any hope for them?
Shen Xuan slowly closed her eyes: "The late emperor's confession is lingering in my ears. Shen has never forgotten it, let alone forgotten it!"
"Whoever the late emperor passes the throne to will be the object of our allegiance!"
"never changed!"
Snapped!
Zhu Yi slapped him in the face again: "As a minister, it is the duty of a minister to be loyal to the late emperor."
"But did the late Emperor order you to bring trouble to Chao Gang?"
"Have you been asked to participate in the fight for the throne?"
"Are you asked to support the restoration of King Mobei to the throne?"
"Are you worthy?"
Who do you think you are if you do this?
The earthworm shakes the tree.
You are in a dead space! Just a nail!
What do you really think of yourself?
Is it your turn to intervene in such a national matter?
"Loyalty to the emperor and service to the country, is this so ridiculous in the eyes of Duke Cheng?"
Shen Xuan couldn't believe that a dignified Duke would actually say such a thing! Does he still have Junfu in his heart?
"You call this loyalty to the emperor and serving the country?"
"You are causing trouble to Chao Gang!"
"What are the consequences of frequent changes in the throne of the emperor? Have you considered it?"
Zhu Yi noticed that Shen Xuan looked at him with mocking eyes.
"That's all, I can't tell you clearly." Zhu Yi was too lazy to talk nonsense and couldn't wake up a person who was pretending to sleep.
"You're just afraid of death."
Shen Xuan's words exposed Zhu Yi's disguise: "It's really ridiculous to express fear of death in such a high-sounding way."
"enough!"
Zhu Yi roared.
But Shen Xuan couldn't be frightened: "You are anxious, it proves that I have touched your mind."
"Being a duke, being loyal to the king and serving the country is not just a slogan."
"What Shen did is what a minister should do!"
Shen Xuan said loudly: "You are worthy of heaven and earth! You are worthy of ghosts and gods!"
Snapped!
Zhu Yi's self-esteem was touched, and she slapped him again: "Stop Luoli, you're so silly, tell me your business!"
"I have nothing to say. If you catch me, I'll kill you or behead you. It's up to you." Shen Xuan closed her eyes.
"If you don't tell me, fine, I will investigate, and your family will be even more sad."
Zhu Yi sighed: "When the factory guards come to interrogate, your family will suffer even more, and it will be difficult to die."
"Let's do it."
Shen Xuan sneered twice: "My family will die for the country and the country just like me!"
As he spoke, he put his tongue under his teeth and bit down hard.
Bang!
Zhu Yi kicked him in the face. Under the pain, he subconsciously bit his teeth. His tongue was originally pressed against his teeth, but he accidentally hit his tongue.
Zhu Yi's strength was too great, and when he made up his mind, he was so fierce that his tongue was placed between his teeth.
Half of the tongue was bitten off.
"Ahhh!"
Shen Xuan let out a shrill scream.
It hurts!
The bleeding is small, but he is still alive.
It just hurts, heartbreaking pain.
Shen Xuan rolled on the ground in pain.
Zhu Yi was worried that he might commit suicide again, so she held him down and prevented him from moving, regardless of the dirt on his body, to prevent him from committing suicide again.
"Step on, step on!" Shen Xuan spoke vaguely.
"What the hell? What did you say?"
Zhu Yi pressed harder with the soles of her feet, as if she had stepped on something soft.
Trampled to pieces.
That's my tongue!
Shen Xuan kept crying.
Bleeding from mouth.
The key is a little breathless.
Zhu Yi felt that pouting was too tiring, so she simply lay on top of him and pressed him down with her weight.
The key is that Zhu Yi wears inner armor under his clothes and takes precautions.
The inner armor weighs more than fifty kilograms.
Coupled with Zhu Yi's weight, more than 200 kilograms were all placed on Shen Xuan.
Shen Xuan was a little out of breath: "Get up, get up..."
"What did you say?"
Shen Xuan lost half of his tongue and his speech was slurred.
Zhu Yi couldn't hear clearly.
"Heavy, heavy!" Shen Xuan couldn't understand and rolled his eyes a little.
Zhu Yi discovered: "You didn't commit suicide?"
"No, no..." Shen Xuan regretted.
He didn't expect that biting off his tongue would hurt so much.
I always thought that death was a very simple thing.
He had long been prepared to sacrifice his life for King Mobei.
But at the moment when he bit his tongue, he thought about his business, family, future, and many, many things, and suddenly he couldn't bear to die.
This man has nothing and is willing to give up everything;
When you have power and wealth, you will be afraid of death.
I will try my best to survive.
"Why don't you commit suicide?" Zhu Yi thought Shen Xuan was fooling him.
"It hurts, it hurts!"
Shen Xuan spoke word by word, quite clearly.
They are said together, swallowing the jujube, and can't understand.
"It hurts? Where does it hurt?"
Zhu Yi was still holding him down.
This way it is safe and Shen Xuan will not die.
Shen Xuan swallowed a mouthful of blood: "My mouth hurts, my waist hurts, my stomach hurts, everything hurts, I won't die, I won't die, I said everything!"
Zhu Yi thought she heard wrongly: "Seriously?"
Shen Xuan nodded: "True, true."
Zhu Yi tentatively came down, and Shen Xuan quickly sat up, breathing heavily, and then cried, her tongue hurt, and she couldn't bear to die.
This operation made Zhu Yi unstoppable.
"Aren't you quite a hero?"
Shen Xuan shook his head and cried even harder.
Zhu Yi couldn't help but laugh, pretending to be cool, what's the point?
"I am disloyal to you and serving my country?" Zhu Yi asked him.
Shen Xuan cried.
"Stop mocking me?"
The crying got louder.
"I am a coward, but you are the only one who is a warrior. Why did you give in so quickly? Warrior?"
Howling.
Shen Xuan cried uncontrollably, and a thousand words condensed into one word: "It hurts."
Zhu Yi was happy.
"If I had known this, would my tongue be broken?"
"Huh?"
"Where's your tongue?" Zhu Yi found that there was none on the ground.
I walked around and couldn't find it.
Shen Xuan's face was full of tears, his mouth was open, half of his tongue was exposed, and he looked ugly. He pointed at the sole of Zhu Yi's shoe, and the tears flowed even more fiercely.
"Damn it!"
Zhu Yi rubbed it down in disgust, then kicked it away.
Shen Xuan cried even harder.
That's my tongue!
He recruited them all.
In the eighth year of Xuande's reign, his father Shen Wei, under the order of Emperor Xuanzong, went to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to lurk, and gave him 10,000 taels as capital to start doing business in Zhejiang.
There are two purposes. One is to lie dormant and wait for awakening.
The second is to check the list of Zhejiang maritime merchants.
Find out who is profiting from the ocean.
Because Emperor Xuanzong wanted to eat alone, he was very tired of these profitable flies and planned to get rid of them all.
Of course, the point is that you are interested in other people's wealth and want to swallow it all.
In the seventh year of Zhengtong, Shen Wei died of illness.
The three Shen Xuan brothers reorganized the original Maritime Merchant Alliance and renamed it Jiangzuo Alliance.
In order to better investigate maritime merchants, they turned themselves into maritime merchants.
Gradually, the Shen family became a large merchant.
He almost became the leader of Zhejiang merchants.
As the Zhengtong Emperor came into power, for eight years, the Emperor used secret lines to contact them and wanted to go to the West again.
But they have become large merchants, and naturally they are not willing to destroy their own interests, so they provide partial information to the orthodox emperor and hide key information in exchange for the emperor's support.
With the emperor's support, the Jiangzuo Alliance developed rapidly.
The Shen family is getting more and more powerful and making more and more money.
When I have a lot of money, I want to launder my money.
His family no longer wanted to be spies and wanted to become a family of officials, but the orthodox emperor disagreed and asked them to continue to investigate maritime merchants and complete their mission.
It was not until the 14th year of Orthodoxy that the Tumubao Incident became a turning point.
The Shen family lost the channel of contact with Shangfeng and became a lonely ghost.
At first, I thought that the new emperor would contact the Shen family, but after waiting for three full years, what was waiting was the envoy of the orthodox emperor, Zhang Fu.
Zhang Fu brainwashed his family and blackmailed his family into making other families responsible for providing money and food for the rebellion.
The plan to seize the door has already begun since then.
The reason why his family was persuaded.
It was Zhang Fu who promised him that if he succeeded in seizing the gate, he would be granted the title of earl.
As a result, the capture failed.
Zhu Qizhen's direct lineage died and dispersed.
Especially when the emperor found out about the Jiangzuo Alliance, the Jiangzuo Alliance was in danger. Those maritime merchants who supported the alliance fled one after another, eager to clear up the relationship.
As a result, the Jiangzuo Alliance was in turmoil and thunderstorms occurred one after another, and the Jiangzuo Alliance gradually emerged from the water.
The emperor suddenly raided Jiangxi and blocked it, preventing porcelain, paper, and iron from being shipped out.
Business suffered greatly.
It was difficult for the Shen family to maintain the entire Jiangzuo Alliance, so they planned to use a silver ship to rob the silver, support the Jiangzuo Alliance, and disappear again.
It ended up being a trap, that's all.
"Did you build the Jiangzuo League?" Zhu Yi asked.
Shen Xuan nodded.
Zhu Yi didn't believe it at all: "How many days have you studied? Do you understand how officialdom works? You are a rough guy and you know nothing!"
Shen Xuan shrank her head: "It's really me. I have many masters under me..."
Zhu Yi suddenly grabbed his hair, dragged him to the door, opened the door, and clamped his neck between the two door panels.
Then close the door hard.
Shen Xuan screamed, and two red marks appeared on his neck.
"real……"
Zhu Yi dragged him back and closed the door: "Get away, everyone. Don't come near without my order!"
The soldiers were scolded and sent away.
Zhu Yi kicked Shen Xuan back to the room and shouted: "Okay, even if you built it, write down the list."
Shen Xuan actually wrote down the list.
Zhu Yi knew many of the names in it.
The most shocking name, Xu Chengzong!
Duke Wei!
The key is that this man and Zhu Yi were married, and his daughter married Xu Chengzong's eldest son, Xu Er.
He picked Shen Xuan up and said, "Did you do it on purpose?"
Shen Xuan was confused.
"List!" Zhu Yi yelled.
Are you specifically trying to get along with me?
Duke Wei is a descendant of Xu Da. How could he be a member of the Jiangzuo League? You can’t even think about it with your toes!
It is highly possible that he is a maritime merchant.
Because Wei Guogong was still in Nanzhili, many industries in Southern Zhili were inextricably linked to Wei Guogong's mansion.
But to say that he is from the Jiangzuo Alliance is pure nonsense!
"It's true!"
Shen Xuan cried and said, "If I tell a lie, you will cut off all my tongue!"
"roll!"
This list is incredible.
Sent to the palace, the central nervous system was shaken.
"Write down the list of merchants as well."
Shen Xuan said: "There are merchants in southern Zhejiang, one by one. They all make money at sea. There is no need to write down at all. Killing any of them will not be unfair."
Has Southern Zhejiang fallen so far?
Zhu Yi felt that she had made a big mistake.
He is Duke Cheng, a high-ranking official. Logically speaking, he should protect the interests of his subordinates rather than offend big interest groups.
This is something only those who should climb up do.
He does not need it.
Seeing Zhu Yi's guilty conscience, Shen Xuan was secretly amused.
"Where's the death list?" Zhu Yi didn't notice.
Shen Xuan was also honest and wrote out the list.
Zhu Yi's eyes flashed: "Shen Xuan, if I let you go back, can you continue to lurk?"
"ah?"
Shen Xuan didn't expect Zhu Yi to be so courageous.
As long as he goes back, he will immediately go to sea and escape.
But then I thought about it, should I become a pirate?
Or should we go to those poor countries and become savages?
Recently, the Japanese country has been at war with each other. The war is raging, so it is not a good place to take refuge.
The best thing is to go to Champa and Annam.
But they are far less comfortable than in Daming.
"If you can lurk, I will report it to Your Majesty, and I can also give you an official status and restore your identity."
Zhu Yi knew it very well.
The emperor now has no spare time to rectify southern Zhejiang.
If Shen Xuan is exposed in advance, the businessmen will be asked to cut out the evidence, and there will be nothing to investigate in the future. Maybe a few capable officials will be cleared out.
Cholera centers are even more dangerous.
"When I was arrested, the commotion was too loud. Many people saw it. I'm afraid I can't hide it anymore." How dare Shen Xuan lie to Zhu Yi.
In desperation, Zhu Yi could only write a memorial.
Escort Shen Xuan to Beijing.
Factory inspection is required.
These are none of his business.
Zhu Yi was a little unmotivated. She originally wanted to make contributions on the battlefield, but ended up being involved in the Jiangzuo Alliance case.
And in Xinzheng.
The naval force led by Zhang Shan had just completed the handover.
The escorted silver was handed over to Lin Cong.
Lin Cong was responsible for transporting them into Beijing.
Capital.
Sun Hong's home.
His whole family stood in the courtyard, wearing only undergarments and shivering from the cold.
All clothes were taken away.
The house and everything else were handed over to pay off the debt.
There is still a shortage of eight million taels.
"Sun Siqing, it's not that my brother won't help you. Your Majesty will be angry with this little money."
Song Tang is a reckless man.
Sitting on the main seat, he crossed his legs and said, "Why don't you let your daughter-in-law come in and keep herself warm?"
Sun Hong's expression changed and he quickly shook his head.
"Forget it then, brother, we will go to the palace to meet him." Song Tang glanced at him, feeling shameless.
Several fans laughed strangely and bumped into chairs.
Song Tang kicked him over: "This is a chair that needs to be paid for. If you break it, how can you pay it back with your cheap skin?"
"The villain knows his mistakes, the villain knows his mistakes!" Fanzi knelt on the ground.
"Be damn careful, these have to be put into the warehouse and converted into silver coins!"
Song Tang said in a cold voice: "Who the hell was careless and broke it. If the Xichang knew about it, the whole family would suffer. Your wife has to stand outside and let people ride. You all have to understand it!"
The fans were frightened by Xichang.
"But."
Song Tang changed the subject: "Don't break things, but people are not valuable, aren't they, Mr. Sun!"
Sun Hong's body was shaking, whether he was angry or frightened.
"For such a small amount of money, brothers still have to eat melon."
Song Tang walked out of the room, glanced at Sun Hong's daughter-in-law, and took a sip of saliva: "You're so damn cool, I don't know which dog got the better of you!"
Sun Hong's son dared not speak out when he was angry.
In front of his husband, call him a dog?
"It's okay, this skin and flesh can be sold for a few dollars. I will patronize you when the time comes, hahaha!"
Song Tang said he was happy but felt sad in his heart.
If the task assigned by the emperor cannot be completed, it means that he has no value. The emperor can't even raise worthless dogs, but can he raise people?
Fans are also drooling over Sun Hong's daughter-in-law.
The woman cried softly. She had already thought about her future life. It would be better to die cleanly now than to be abused by these ugly men.
But what about her child?
She has three daughters, what will be their fate?
She gritted her teeth and ran into the main hall: "Dad, you have to think about the children!"
Sun Hong looked back: "Get out!"
"Ooooo!" the woman just cried.
"Pull this bitch out! I'm not dead yet! I'm still the master of this family!" Sun Hong shouted.
His son quickly grabbed his wife.
Women are also ladies of the family, their natal family is quite powerful, and they have known about political struggles since they were young.
With a ruthless look on his face, he said: "Dad, you care about your old relationship, but other people don't care about our family!"
Sun Hong was stunned, stopped his son, and asked her: "What do you mean?"
"Taipu Temple is not your minister."
"You are not the only officials of Taipu Temple."
"There are so many officials in front of us, why should our family suffer!"
The woman's tone was calm, yet chilling.
These words attracted Song Tang, who had already gone out, to come back.
"Girls, that makes sense!" Song Tang slapped his forehead. The emperor had no rules, so he went to the current official of Taipu Temple.
The previous ones can also be traced back.
Song Tang suddenly patted Sun Hong's son: "I don't want my wife anymore, can you give her to me?"
"Get out!" Sun Hong's son quickly protected his wife.
"Don't be so angry. If you can't raise ten million taels of silver, you will definitely not be able to keep your wife. When the time comes, I will go and beg Your Majesty, and maybe it will be given to me!"
Song Tang really took a fancy to it.
Just this ruthlessness can hold up half the sky.
"Don't worry, I don't dislike her for having given birth to a child. I will raise her child as my own son and daughter." Song Tang really took a fancy to her.
Sun Hong wiped the cold sweat from his face and understood. The emperor did not say which dynasty he would pay for.
It didn’t say that it couldn’t be traced back.
After all, no matter how greedy Taipu Temple is, it will only cost hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.
All the officials' belongings were sold, and only two million taels were collected.
But the emperor set a limit of 10 million taels.
Just ask people to check forward. Don't think that everything will be fine after an official leaves office, let alone that everything will be fine after a person dies.
As long as the emperor wants to investigate, he must hand it over obediently.
No? Okay, go to hell.
"The last minister of the temple was Shang Da!"
Shang Da was a Jinshi for four years, only one rank lower than Wang Hong.
But this person died of illness in the sixth year of Jingtai.
"Is Shang Da's family still in Beijing?" Song Tang asked.
Sun Hong shook his head: "He is from Shaanxi, but he has a son studying in the Imperial College."
"Go get it!"
Song Tang made a prompt decision.
Anyone who has ever been an official in Taipu Temple and anyone who is corrupt must be handed over.
And in the palace.
Zhu Qiyu sat under the candlelight and closed his eyes to rest: "It's been three days, right? Have you paid all the money to Taipu Temple?"
"Go back to the emperor and hand over 670,000 taels in cash. The rest are belongings, including the real estate in my hometown, the village, etc. After calculation, it is estimated to be 2 million taels."
"so much?"
Zhu Qiyu did not expect that officials in Taizu Temple were so greedy.
"Okay, greedy greedy."
"Anyway, I want to hand it in."
"Do you dare to make it? Hum."
"Let them die cheap them, I want money, don’t die."
Feng Xiao asked: "Huangye, is the copied furniture or something, is it sold? Or how to deal with it?"
actually.
These things of copying the house were finally occupied by all parties.
Even if it is sold, it is sold at a low price.
Can't receive money in the palace.
But the West Factory was horrible. Whoever was greedy for trying, stealing a copper plate can be dug out.
"No need to sell."
"What do you sell this little money?
"The quilt is soft, all discounted, reward the old children."
"The furniture is also discounted as a lady, and it is sent to the official."
Zhu Qiyu is not wasted for a copper plate.
Feng Xiaoman was stunned, which was regarded as the ability of Huangye's financial management.
Turn the table, chair and bench as a lady?
"In order for them to eat full meals, send some rice noodles, and send it for three months in one breath.
The emperor meant that he was worried that there were too many tables and chairs and benches, and he went on.
As for how to deal with it, let Baiguan headache.
"The emperor Shengming!" Feng Xiao's hoe.
"Scolded me in my heart, right?"
Zhu Qiyu laughed: "Haha, the people are unobstructed, they ca n’t eat food, Baiguan has power, and he has been covered with intestines and fat.
