It is true that tens of thousands of acres of fertile land were abandoned to fight against the new tax system and the national policy of the imperial court.
It is also true that during the autumn harvest, people refused to pay taxes according to the corresponding new tax system.
But one has already happened, and the other is still brewing.
The officials of the governor's office had long been aware of the neglected farmland. Before the wheat had grown and the matter had not become a big deal, Li Bing knew about it, but he had a second thought and hid it from Liu Hong. and others, they investigated a group of officials, and Qiu Hong was the leader.
Originally, Li Bing wanted to directly inform the emperor of Qiu Hong's crime and take him into custody for questioning. In order to protect himself, Qiu Hong confessed the subsequent incident.
In fact, Qiu Hong didn't know much at that time. He only knew that he had done something and Shen Shi had done something, but he didn't know the specific thing.
After Li Bing learned about it, he thought for a long time and came up with this method of slandering himself and eradicating the subsequent groups.
He has the handle of Qiu Hong and even a series of officials. In order to successfully implement the new tax system, it is impossible to arrest all so many officials. He can only settle for the next best thing and keep Qiu Hong to carry out the heavy lifting.
What Li Bing burned at this time was the governor's Yamen's investigation into the case of abandoned farmland.
Liu Hong obeyed His Majesty the Emperor's order and was still investigating, but no matter how he investigated, he could not find anything to do with Li Bing.
Of course, Liu Hong didn't know that this was a real case, but the case had been closed long ago.
However, Liu Hong has been pursuing this matter, and finally solved the riddle when the new tax system was implemented, but by that time the truth had no meaning. ŴŴŴ.BiQuGe.Biz
In fact, there are not so many truths and so many truths in this world, but more people say it, which makes us mistakenly believe that everything has the truth and we know what truth is...
Suzhou and Hangzhou have also begun to implement a new tax system, and they encountered fewer difficulties than Yingtianfu.
After Xu Youzhen arrived at Yingtian Mansion after leaving the capital, she didn't waste much time before taking her team down.
Most of the officials and gentry were raised at home, including Xu Youzhen's old boss, Yang Shan, the censor of the left capital of the imperial court.
He returned to his hometown in Hangzhou from the capital and saw the big commotion Xu Youzhen made in Yingtian Mansion. At that time, he hugged his new concubine and waited to see Xu Youzhen's jokes.
But more than a year has passed, but the joke has not been taken seriously, and he actually made it happen. This made Yang Shan a little puzzled. Could it be that after his retirement, no one in the court officials would be like Xu Youzhen? opponent.
At first, the two had a debate in the court because of the matter of converting the soil into a stream. It was because of that debate that Xu Youzhen pressed Begonia with a pear tree, and Lao Qiang was defeated because he insisted on entering Xintan's private life. Yang Shan became angry and moved his hands, which also showed that the title of the best talker in the Ming Dynasty had changed hands.
Yang Shanben thought he would never see Xu Youzhen again, but who knew that Xu Youzhen was still haunted and came to Hangzhou to preside over the new tax system, and brought a group of people with him.
Moreover, the first thing he did when he arrived in Hangzhou was to visit retired officials of the imperial court. As the censor of Zuodu, his former boss became the first person to visit.
Yang Shan received the invitation early and was in a dilemma. He still resented him for making himself so embarrassed and didn't want to see him, but if he didn't see him, he seemed a little afraid of him.
Moreover, it is said to be a visit, but in fact it is better to say that it is a beating. The new tax system has been implemented by Tianfu. Suzhou and Hangzhou and other places are all going along with the flow. Those old guys with power in office cannot stop it. Only some people can retire relying on them. Those who have influence can stop it.
In fact, Yang Shan is already old and does not want to get involved in these things.
However, although I only have a few days to live, my children and grandchildren still have to live in the Ming Dynasty.
At the moment, after hesitating for half an hour, Yang Shan replied to the post and invited Xu Youzhen to come to Yang Mansion for lunch tomorrow.
Xu Youzhen, who was at the inn, was very happy after receiving the post. After preparing some gifts, he organized a motorcade to go to Yang Shan's mansion the next day.
In fact, Xu Youzhen admired Yang Shan in his heart. They were the same kind of people. No matter when Wang Zhenyu's party was harming the country, Yang Shan and Xu Youzhen were inseparable from Wang Zhenyu's party, but When Wang Zhen died in Tumubao, the two of them were able to separate immediately without being affected.
And when Zhu Jianshen ascended the throne, Yang Shan got older, and his face became thinner as he got older. If he were ten or twenty years younger, Xu Youzhen might not have climbed up so quickly.
Xu Youzhen's motorcade was walking on the streets of Hangzhou City.
Hundreds of Jinyi guards were pressing forward and backward. In addition to these Jinyi guards, there were also some soldiers led by Xu Yan, the young Duke of the Duke of Wei.
Zhao Cong and Xu Er followed Xu Youzhen's carriage on horseback, one on the left and the other on the right.
The people on the street moved out of the way.
Looking at the specially treated carriage in the middle, he whispered.
"Have you heard that he is a high-ranking official?"
"The officials and gentry in Yingtian have been sorted out and have come to Hangzhou. It's good that those officials should also be sorted out. Otherwise, they really think that they are the masters of the Ming Dynasty."
"Yes, I know, it's Xu Youzhen, the famous person in front of His Majesty the Emperor. I heard he is a eunuch."
"Really or not? Isn't he an official of the imperial court? Why is he a eunuch?"
"Yeah, why didn't I hear about it?"
"Go to the teahouse opposite, and if anyone invites me to drink tea, I will tell you about Xu Youzhen's journey. The experience of Xu Youzhen is definitely more exciting than what is in the play."
"Okay, let's go, let's go..."
Of course Xu Youzhen, who was sitting in the carriage, didn't know that he had become a eunuch.
The reason was that the imperial eunuch students who were deprived of their qualifications for the imperial examination in Yingtian Mansion felt so much hatred for Xu Youzhen after returning home that they began to write Xu Youzhen's stories.
Xu Youzhen was an eunuch, which was first spread from Xu Youzhen's hometown, Wuxian County, Suzhou.
According to the story, Xu Youzhen has been a scoundrel since she was a child. She went to climb over the wall of the young lady's house at night and accidentally destroyed her roots.
Of course, after it spread from Wu County, many down-and-out imperial eunuch students were artistically processed, and different stories came out one after another.
The protagonist is Xu Youzhen.
Unintentionally, Xu Youzhen certainly didn't know that the imperial students who had beaten him, although they did not stand out in the imperial examination, they created a new world on a different path.
After being full, warm, lustful, and gradually satisfied with their material life, people began to seek spiritual satisfaction.
And these dozens of imperial eunuchs from the Imperial Academy, after the society became more and more prosperous, also reaped the dividends of social development and became the first generation of storytellers, because in their storybooks, the villains who did all kinds of evil were always named Xu. , also called them Xu style writers.
As the literary works of these imperial students were passed down to the world, Xu Youzhen's reputation in later generations was mixed.
Xu Youzhen was sitting in the carriage, feeling a little uneasy. When Yang Shan left Beijing, he didn't go to see him off, and of course he didn't have the dignity to see him off.
Passing through the bustling streets, the motorcade arrived at Yang Shan's residence in Hangzhou.
Yang Shan's eldest son Yang Zong personally greeted him outside the door.
Yang Zong was about the same age as Xu Youzhen. He had failed the imperial examinations for many years and had no fame.
Xu Youzhen got off the carriage, and Yang Zong held his hands and walked towards Xu Youzhen.
"If the censor of Xudu can come, our Yang Mansion will be full of glory."
Xu Youzhen smiled, did not raise her hands in salute, and said directly: "My nephew, this is wrong. It is my honor to come and meet Mr. Yang."
Yang Zong was stunned when he heard this, and felt a little dissatisfied in his heart. He might be older than Xu Youzhen, why would this guy let himself be a generation lower...
"How is Master Yang?"
Yang Zong hurriedly said: "Okay, my father is waiting for Xu Du Yushi, Xu Du Yushi please come in quickly."
Xu Youzhen nodded and walked directly towards the mansion.
Zhao Cong, Xu Er and a group of guards in brocade clothes rushed in.
Yang Zong, who was following Xu Youzhen, looked behind him from time to time. It didn't look like so many people were here to visit, but rather like they were here to ransack the house.
After Xu Youzhen was attacked, he learned a lesson and no longer dared to relax on the issue of security.
Yang Shan was dressed as a foreigner, could not straighten his waist, and his eyesight was a little blurry. Even if his students hugged Xu Youzhen now, he could not complete the smooth and smooth hammering movements.
However, he will still try some things.
Yang Shan was supported by two maids and walked towards Xu Youzhen and the others.
Then he excitedly grabbed his arm and whispered: "Xu Youzhen, I didn't expect to see you again..."
"Dad, you have arrested the wrong person. The censor of Xudu is beside you..."
The scene is slightly embarrassing.
However, Xu Youzhen is a master at resolving embarrassment. He grabbed Yang Shan's hand and said, "Master Yang, Xu Youzhen is here to see you."
As I spoke, I burst into tears...
