"What! The court will give you compensation." Qin Feng and Qin Haifang asked with doubts on their faces.
Ordinary people have no human rights!
Since ancient times, people at the bottom have been untouchables in the eyes of people above them.
No matter what the situation, the imperial court blocked the city and never compensated the people for anything.
"Yes, this is a subsidy ordered by His Majesty himself. No one dares to reach out." The soldier explained.
"The portraits of the escaped criminals will come down soon. If you see them, you can report them to the soldiers stationed on the street, and the court will give corresponding rewards." The soldier said enthusiastically.
"Okay, okay, we will report to you if we meet."
Qin Feng said, and then pulled Qin Haifang to continue walking.
At this moment, Qin Feng no longer had any hope in his heart.
The city gate was sealed, and the officers and soldiers were about to search the city. He had become a turtle in the urn.
Although 3 kilograms of food per day for no one is not much, it is indeed a good way to win over the people.
The subsidy provided by the imperial court means that everyone in Tianjin will become the informants of the officers and soldiers.
If the imperial court's silver reward is large enough, his nephew may also choose to kill his relatives out of justice.
In this case, even with wings, there is no way to escape.
"Hey, it's the Ming Dynasty now." Qin Feng stopped mid-sentence.
"There are 2 chickens, 1 piece of bacon, and 2 bottles of good wine in the small courtyard. You can pack up later and we will have a good meal. After eating, go find someone to report me. When the time comes, Take the money and go back to your hometown to buy a few acres of farmland and live well."
After walking for a while and seeing no one around, Qin Feng said softly.
"Uncle..."
"That's it, stop talking nonsense. The good news is not going to others. Rather than being reported by others, it is better for you to send me in. If the court wants to chop off my head, just remember to collect my body when the time comes.
Remember to burn some paper money for me during the holidays. I have been poor for most of my life, and I don’t want to be a poor man at the end of the day. "
.....
"Master Zhang is in trouble, butler Zhang Shun was captured by the Jin Yiwei." A servant of the Zhang family trotted all the way to Master Zhang and said.
"What, those Jinyi guards dared to be so bold and arrest me, Zhang Zishen? I, Zhang Zishen, don't want to lose face?
Tomorrow morning, I will definitely take part in their book," Zhang Zishen said.
Beating a dog depends on the owner. Although Zhang Shun is not as good as a dog raised by the eldest wife in the eyes of the Zhang family. But he can be considered a member of the Zhang family.
The other party is so disrespectful and arrests people directly. To put it more seriously, they don't take themselves seriously.
If I don't respond, what will the servants at home think?
If you can't even protect your own "dog", who will look to you as a protector in the future?
The most important thing is, if Jin Yiwei doesn't know how powerful he is this time. From now on, Jin Yiwei will not be allowed to touch his nose or face?
If you arrest your housekeeper today, will you dare to arrest your son directly tomorrow, and will you dare to arrest yourself the day after tomorrow?
No, this kind of trend must not be formed.
Even if the other party arrests people according to the Ming Law, it won't work!
"Not only that, I heard that the Jinyi Guards were dispatched this time and arrested many people, including the oiran from Baixiang Tower, Lord Wang's nephew, and Liu Shangshu's grandson..." the servant said.
"What, how could this happen, how dare Shuzi!...
The purpose of studying hard for ten years and ascending to a high position is not to realize the hypocritical goal of providing justice to the people.
Wouldn't it be nice for him to be a dog official and a cashier?
The purpose of becoming an official now is to become a superior person! Just for enjoyment.
Since some people want to break this situation and don't want us to get rich, then don't blame me for being unkind!
Even if you are the emperor of Ming Dynasty, even if you have millions of powerful troops. I won’t allow it either. "...Zhang Zishen said in his heart.
"Go and invite Mr. Wang, Mr. Liu, Mr. Sun... over." Zhang Zishen said after a second thought.
.....
"Master Wang, Master Liu, Master Sun. You are finally here." Seeing three colleagues approaching in the hall, Zhang Zishen got up from the main seat and ran to the door of the living room.
"Master Zhang, you're welcome, we have to come." Three colleagues said.
Although His Majesty forcibly dissolved all parties, he also strictly prohibited officials from forming private parties for personal gain.
But is it so easy to dissipate the grievances accumulated by the Ming Dynasty’s party and government for decades?
In order to avoid being judged by others, many officials formed private alliances.
The four adults, Wang, Liu, Sun, and Zhang, had already formed an offensive and defensive alliance in private.
"Presumably the three adults would have known what I was going to say if I hadn't said anything." Zhang Zishen said with a smile.
"Of course, Jin Yiwei dares to arrest even my grandson. If we are not punished, we will probably have tea together in Jin Yiwei's prison tomorrow." Master Liu said with an angry face.
"That's right, I can't bear to look at the Buddha's face in front of a monk. Does a little guard in royal robes really think that he can do whatever he wants with someone's backing? Does he really think this is the Hongwu period?" Master Wang continued.
Although the Ming Dynasty's millions of troops obeyed His Majesty's words, the civilian officials were not vegetarians either.
During the Hongwu period, 60 taels of corruption were stripped and used as grass. It is believed that corruption killed no less than 100,000 corrupt officials. However, even so, the proportion of corrupt officials during the Hongwu period was not less than 30%.
Later, Ming Dynasty put down the knife to kill corrupt officials. After 200 years of recuperation, the proportion of corrupt officials cannot be lower than 98%.
What is a corrupt official? Officials who are corrupt, bend the law, and are obsessed with money and official position.
Your Majesty rectified the officialdom, and everyone tolerated it for the sake of the army's pain and suffering.
His Majesty's efforts to clean up the nobles in Nanjing have little to do with him, so he tolerated it.
Your Majesty killed the officials who embezzled military pay and disaster relief funds. His righteousness was not here, so he tolerated it.
Good guy, now His Majesty is kicking his nose in the face, trying to pick up the butcher's knife against corrupt officials, and the knife is on his neck. If he doesn't resist in the next few decades, all officials will have no choice but to live in poverty.
"This is not the Hongwu period. Even if His Majesty wants to become a new "Hongwu period" official, he will not allow it."
"However, His Majesty is not a stable monarch. His Majesty's heart is full of ambitions, and the countries surrounding the Ming Dynasty are now panicked.
This is not what a benevolent monarch should look like.
For the future of the Ming Dynasty, I think it is more appropriate for His Royal Highness Prince Fu to be the emperor. "Zhang Zi said with a deep smile.
"You're crazy!" the three adults said in unison.
Your Majesty is in pretty good shape now! All the informants in the palace have long been eliminated. Moreover, it is rumored that His Majesty is Ziweixing. What is the difference between wanting to change the emperor and dreaming?
"His Majesty's move to regain Annan has frightened the kings of Lancang Kingdom and Toungoo Dynasty."
"Do you want to help Mingjun ascend to power with the help of barbarians?"
"That's right."
"The Lancang Kingdom and the Toungu Dynasty are just small countries. Together, they may not be able to defeat the Ming Dynasty's garrison in Yunnan. What's the use of such barbarians?"
