It turns out.
Ninety-nine percent of the people of the Ming Dynasty were from good families.
Except for Anle Village, there has been no rebellion in other villages such as Foguang Village in the entire valley.
This made the officers and soldiers of the Henan Guard who were ambushing outside the villages, preparing to win military glory again, a little disappointed.
Looking at the people in those villages, after hearing the news in Anle Village, they only came out to take a look. When they saw the imperial soldiers and horses, they immediately returned home and waited to inquire about the news during the day.
The officers and soldiers were still disappointed for a while.
As the imperial court implemented the method of military merit, the desire of military officers and soldiers for military merit has risen to an unprecedented level.
Fortunately, the Metropolitan Governor's Office issued a military order not long ago. From now on, the guard posts in various places in the central court will be rotated to the nine sides or the eastern and southern expeditions.
This gave the officers and soldiers of the local guard station some comfort in their desire for military glory.
It is precisely because of this that the strategy originally formulated by the imperial court of local guards taking turns to guard the border was supported. It is no longer the past. Once the local guards heard that they were going to take turns guarding the border, they all wailed in their hearts.
And in Anle Village.
The officers and soldiers were counting their military exploits tonight.
The women, children, and children who did not resist in Anle Village had been gathered in the open space in front of the ancestral hall.
Just waiting for daybreak, these people will be escorted back to Luoyang City and executed in public.
This is something that has been decided for a long time.
As long as it is proven that the accident on the river was caused by Anle Village.
And now, with the appearance of Sun Cheng, this matter has been finally confirmed.
"Your Highness, according to the investigation by my subordinates and others, the method used in Anle Village is from a long time ago. This method is probably passed down from generation to generation in Anle Village and is not known to outsiders."
On the path to the back mountain of Anle Village, Sun Cheng quietly explained the situation he currently had.
Zhu Yunxi's originally frowning brows relaxed.
Once the reasons for the destruction of the dams and water reduction dams are found out, there will be no major troubles in Henan Province, and an explanation can naturally be given to the DPRK and China.
Wang Xinling was very curious and couldn't help but ask: "What method?"
Sun Cheng looked back at the young governor and smiled: "You can see Governor Wang if you walk further."
After saying that, everyone walked around a mountain bend and arrived at the mountain stream where fires were used to boil water, pour oil and soak bluestones in Anle Village.
Niu Dafu immediately directed people to hold torches and cover the entire mountain stream.
Under the illumination of the fire, the layout of the mountain stream was fully exposed to everyone's eyes.
Sun Cheng pointed to the unprocessed and processed bluestones, as well as the fires and the oil beach at the foot of the mountain, and explained softly.
"The people in Anle Village mine bluestone at the quarry during the day. At night, they will bring all the bluestone used in the river.
First, put it on the fire and burn it. When the bluestone is fully burned, water will be poured on it. At this time, the bluestone will immediately become extremely fragile, and the entire piece will break and shatter if you are not careful during handling.
These people seemed to want to ensure that the bluestone would not break easily, and would send the bluestone to be soaked in the oil. "
Following Sun Cheng's introduction, everyone walked around in the clearing of the mountain stream.
Zhu Yunxi stood in front of the oil pool soaked in countless blue stones, his eyes gloomy.
And according to Sun Cheng's explanation, he finally understood.
Burning the bluestone and then watering it is to change the texture of the bluestone and make it brittle. Soak the oil again to slightly increase the stickiness of the inside and outside of the bluestone to prevent damage during transportation.
Only when the bluestones are used on the river, with the erosion and impact of the river water and the influence of external forces, these bluestones can no longer be fixed by the oil soaked in, and become extremely fragile.
This is why, after the backup dam on the Mengjin County river embankment was opened, the bluestone inside had already been shattered.
"Instruct Pan Deshan, the governor of the river channel, to inspect the upper and lower reaches of the river. All bluestones involved must be inspected and inspected.
We must ensure that these tampered bluestones are never used on rivers again. "
Zhu Yunxi made a prompt decision and ordered remediation of possible hidden dangers on the river.
Wang Xinling made a mental note and nodded quickly: "I obey your order."
Tian Mai led the people in the darkness and rushed over from the direction of Anle Village.
"Your Highness, the identity of the White Lotus Sect person has been identified."
Zhu Yunxi immediately turned back and looked at Tian Mai.
Tian Mai smiled: "That man was somewhat lucky. The officers and soldiers attacked him with crossbows, but he avoided the vital point and saved his life. But it was precisely because of this that the subordinates and others found out these things. People’s problems.”
Sun Cheng's eyes narrowed: "His status in the White Lotus Sect is not low?"
Tian Mai nodded and looked at Zhu Yunxi, with something a little strange in his eyes. He whispered: "It turns out that Liu Futong's bloodline was not cut off at the time, and he still left a son named Liu Zongsheng. Now, just like Liu Fu, in the In the White Lotus Sect, he holds the position of the guardian of the religion.
And the person who came to Anle Village today was Liu Zongsheng's nephew. In the White Lotus Sect, he usually helped Liu Zongsheng with work. This time around the rumors about the Dragon King of the Yellow River in Henan Province, it was this person who instigated the local church members to spread the rumors.
It was this person who replaced Liu Zongsheng to develop the congregation in Henan Province and prepared for the rebellion in the city when His Highness came to Luoyang City. "
Wang Xinling couldn't help but open his mouth: "So there was going to be an uprising in Anle Village."
Tian Mai looked at Wang Xinling and nodded: "There are more than 200 strong people in Anle Village. Once they enter Luoyang City, they can cause a lot of trouble."
"The people of Anle Village should be severely punished!"
Wang Xinling narrowed his eyes, and his eyes were a little sharper.
Anyone who tries to cause unrest in the court is an enemy of the country.
"Punishment and leniency tell Yuma and the people in the Henan Dadu Si Yamen that if there is no more rebellion in the local area after this severe punishment of Anle Village, then nothing will be done to them. If there is another rebellion, there is no need to show mercy."
Zhu Yunxi decided at a glance, and tonight he also knew how Anle Village manipulated the bluestone, and he no longer had any intention of staying here.
Speechless all night.
…
Two days over
It's noon.
The west side of Luoyang City is already crowded with people. People are rubbing shoulders with each other on the streets, and they are surrounded by people who are doing good things.
Three squads of officers from Luoyang Prefecture's Yamen came out in full force, leading the county government officers to block the lowest-lying street intersection in the west of the city.
The soldiers and horses of Henan's left guard and right guard were divided into small areas among the crowd.
The imperial court uncovered the cause of the river accident and arrested the criminals in Anle Village who caused the river accident.
Under the instruction of Gao Yangzhi, the cabinet minister who had already rushed to Luoyang City.
There were officials throughout Luoyang, and everyone held notices and preached in the city, telling the people over and over again the causes and consequences of what happened in Henan Road.
From how Anle Village destroyed the bluestone, how the river water reduction dam and check dam were destroyed, the rumors of the Dragon King of the Yellow River that had been circulated in Henan Prefecture, and Anle Village's attempt to participate in the rebellion, everything was explained clearly.
Gao Yangzhi even emphatically explained at the end that this was Professor Bai Lian's intention to trick Anle Village into not allowing the people of Henan Province to build the river embankment, in order to make Henan Province suffer from flooding year after year.
The common people could not understand how the bluestone was destroyed, and they did not want to know the government's other explanation.
But the people heard clearly that there was a group of people who did not want the people of Henan Province to live a good life.
So, as the government informed that the emperor Taisun personally issued an order to kill the rebels in Anle Village today, the whole city of Luoyang was in a state of shock.
So much so that the farmers who went to the city to sell vegetables, melons and fruits today were simply too busy.
If it weren't for the night fragrance car under the government, it would have been sent out of the city early in the morning.
I'm afraid Luoyang City will have a different flavor today.
The white tiger dominates the west position and is for killing.
On a high building next to the West Street entrance in Luoyang City.
It had been cleared out by Jin Yiwei a long time ago.
The Luoyang prefect and county magistrate stood at the edge of the crowd, looking at the emperor's grandson behind the railing outside the corridor. However, they were unable to get close because of their official positions, so they had the opportunity to get close to the emperor's grandson.
Gao Yangzhi, who had led the Northern Patrol officials to Luoyang City, stood on the left hand side of the emperor's grandson with his hands in his sleeves.
On Zhu Yunxi's right hand side was Pan Deshan, the governor-general of the river who was reviewing the river all the way upstream.
Next to the two of them were Pei Benzhi, the chief envoy of Henan Province, and Gao Guang, the inspector-general who rushed to Luoyang City together.
Numerous officials from the Northern Patrol and the River Governor's Yamen gathered behind.
No one said anything upstairs, everyone was watching the street in front of them silently.
An official from the Si Yamen of the Henan Province, wearing court uniform, stood on the prison platform and looked up at the sky.
[In view of the general environment,
As the hour got closer and closer, the crowd on the street began to gradually lower their voices.
The feeling of killing also filled the entire Luoyang City unconsciously.
The officials of the Yamen who were responsible for the punishment and inspection were always looking at the sun in the sky.
As time comes.
The man's eyes narrowed, and he picked up a token on the offering eucalyptus.
Oops.
The token was thrown high and fell to the ground.
There was a clang.
"The time has come."
"cut!"
puff.
The executioners spit strong wine on their swords.
The red tassel flutters.
A knife with a cold light was raised high, and then fell heavily.
"ah!"
"Killed!"
There were exclamations from the crowd.
There were also some ragged people holding bowls in their hands who wanted to approach the execution platform, but they were stopped by the officers and soldiers.
The emperor's grandson was not far away, and no one dared to ask these common people to do such unspeakable things in front of the emperor's grandson, the elders, and the officials.
Behind the railing of a tall building.
Zhu Yunxi's eyes flashed as he watched the corpses being lifted up. As they passed by, he looked at the common people holding bowls in their hands who were blocked by the officers and soldiers.
"They want these people's blood."
Gao Yangzhi's heart moved, and he couldn't believe that the emperor's grandson actually knew about this matter.
He couldn't help but look at Pei Benzhi, the envoy of Henan Province.
Pei Benzhi was also a little embarrassed to talk about it. Such bad folk customs have always been unspeakable.
In all interactions, the government turned a blind eye.
"Um?"
When Zhu Yunxi saw that no one was speaking, he uttered a question and turned to look at the officials on both sides: "I shouldn't investigate the reasons for the bad habits of the people. To be honest, the court is not doing a good enough job and the Huimin Medical Bureau cannot always take care of it. To all the people who are sick but cannot afford medical treatment.”
As the chief envoy of Henan Province, there are also the actions of those people just now.
Pei Benzhi had no choice but to bow and speak: "The imperial court is benevolent and righteous, and loves the people like a son. However, the ministers did not work hard enough, causing the people of the king and father to suffer from illness and seek help without medical treatment."
Zhu Yunxi showed a trace of sadness on his face.
He thought of many things that had long been forgotten.
It's just that it's hard to talk about, and no one can explain it.
After a while, he sighed and said: "I am telling the imperial court that in the future, local officials will not be allowed to do anything like this!"
He raised his head, nodded and cupped his hands: "I accept your order."
Zhu Yunxi then said again: "Hedao Governor's Yamen."
Pan Deshan frowned, turned around and bowed, "I'm here."
"Everything on the river has now been clarified, and the causes and consequences are known. Things will be reported to heaven, and this matter will be considered settled."
Zhu Yunxi's tone was calm, only
It is stating a fact.
Pan Deshan, on the other hand, said with emotion: "I am not in a good position to manage the river and have failed to live up to His Highness's expectations."
Zhu Yunxi waved his hand: "What happened on the river can be seen clearly by the imperial court, and I can also see it clearly. You have worked hard, and the subjects on the river have worked hard.
Just for the matter of river control, you set a limit of thirty years, Gu imagined fifty years, but it takes a hundred years. The imperial court will not change its orders overnight. If you, Pan De, manage the river well, someone will continue to manage the river in the future.
It's all easy to do, and you should do it more carefully, don't let it turn out to be a bad thing, which is a good thing that has great merit and can allow future generations to build temples and statues for you.
His majesty is in good health, the prince is in his prime, how can Gu live another fifty years, and Gu's heirs will also be educated on the importance of river management.
The Ming Dynasty's river governance will not be shaken for a hundred years.
Within a hundred years, you and the people you have trained will have nothing to worry about. "
Pan Deshan was once again moved by the young emperor grandson in front of him.
The group of officials from the River Governor's Yamen behind him were already kneeling on the ground.
Some people even had their eyes turned red, lowering their heads and bursting into tears.
The imperial court remembers their hard work, and His Highness remembers their difficulties.
It's worth it!
Pan Deshan also waved his robe and knelt down.
"I am determined to live up to His Highness's trust!"
Zhu Yunxi nodded: "Henan Province has experienced many changes this year. Your respective yamen should be closer together."
"I obey your orders."
"I'm gone. I'm still leading the errand of patrolling the north on behalf of the imperial court. What's next for the Henan Road? I've already handed it over."
Amidst the sound of farewell, Zhu Yunxi, Gao Yangzhi and others, along with the officials from the Northern Patrol, disappeared from the tall building.
Towards sunset.
The Yellow River embankment in Mengjin County.
The rolling river flows from west to east, just like it has for millions of years, flowing endlessly.
On the river, there were boats prepared by the river governor's office waiting for a long time.
The officers and soldiers of the Northern Patrol had already begun to board the ship one by one.
On the river embankment, Zhu Yunxi looked at the river with his hands behind his back, looking across the river bank.
"Originally, we were supposed to go through Huaiqing Prefecture, then transfer to Weihui Prefecture, Zhangde Prefecture, enter Hebei Road, and then go from Beiping Prefecture to Guanwai."
Gao Yangzhi's eyes flickered, and he seemed to be moved: "This is the route of His Highness's northern tour that was originally planned. Does Your Highness want to change the route now?"
Zhu Yunxi turned back to look at Gao Yangzhi, with a smile on his face that Mr. Gao Ge didn't want to see.
"Cross the river and enter Shanxi Road!"
