Domineering Daming
Page 648
The eunuch party, which had been sluggish and almost dissipated, suddenly gained power again. I don't know how many officials, big and small, approached the capital, making the arrogance of the eunuch party even more rampant.
As for the rules of the imperial court, they are not worth mentioning in front of power!
It would take a day for Tiqi to go to Hejian Mansion and back. Even though the people in the capital were vigilant and anxious, they were still busy.
Empress Dowager Zhang, Li Jieyu and others in the palace are as usual, and they will not be affected by the chaos outside the palace.
It's just different, there is no emperor's palace, the gates of the inner court are locked, and no one can leave the palace without the Queen Mother's order.
Hai Lanzhu was very happy, even in the cage of the palace, it was fresher than Horqin's ten-year scene. The basic necessities of life here are different, and every day makes her feel novel, and occasionally she can go out of the palace to see her younger sister Bu Mubutai.
Bumbutai's life was a bit bleak. As a barbarian and a sinner, she was treated harshly in the clothing bureau every day, and she worked almost day and night. It didn't take long for her hands to be rough and her expression tired, like a yellow-faced woman.Fortunately, she has a tenacious temperament and endured it silently.Jiannu Xizuo, who was hiding near her, didn't dare to stand out recently, Jin Yiwei watched too closely.
Zhu Zonghan had secretly arrived in Shenyang a day earlier, and the secret network of Jinyiwei in Liaodong was activated in an instant.
A series of instructions were issued through different channels, and Yansheng sent Horqin to every corner.
Zhu Zonghan collected all kinds of information, and quietly deduced the "combat" plan with a group of people, all eyes were on Horqin.
Hejian Mansion.
The magistrate Liu Fengzhong breathed a sigh of relief, and finally sent off the emperor's fleet.
The skinny Zhu Bo followed behind Liu Fengzhong, tugging at his mustache, and said worriedly: "My lord, the emperor didn't summon you, nor did he summon other lords, what is the meaning?"
Liu Fengzhong put his hands behind his back, with his big belly sticking out, and said with a relaxed smile, "Don't worry about it, I'm not alone anyway, let's go, go back, today I'm going to try the case of Mr. Know how many eyes Lord Ma has!"
The chief secretary was stunned for a moment, and quickly said: "My lord, the court has stipulated that the right to decide cases is the Fu Dali Temple, and our yamen has no power..."
Liu Fengzhong waved his hand and snorted coldly: "The imperial court is the imperial court, and the common people have complained in the yamen for hundreds of years. Where have I seen the Dali Temple? Besides, how dare the Dali Temple not give me face!"
The political decay of the Ming Dynasty, in addition to the system, is also the collapse of local control. In the local area, the magistrates and magistrates are often the local emperors, and others are powerless to resist.
Master Bo looked hesitant, and nodded after thinking about it. In Hejian Mansion, their adults will do whatever they say!
They didn't know that Tiqi from Dongchang had already left Beijing and was rushing over aggressively.
The four major families in Northern Zhili, Zhao, Li, Zhang, and Zhou formed an alliance early on to fight against the new policy of the imperial court.
"Master Li, I have prepared the Wanyan book here, and I will send it to the household department today to show my heart as a squire."
"Mr. Zhao, I have already ordered people to transfer the food, and made a new account book. When the time comes, I will send it to Shuntian Mansion to see how he collects taxes!"
"Haha, I have already transferred the fields under my name to other people's names and divided them up. The imperial court didn't ask me for it!"
"Boss Zhou, I have already asked the tenants to write a petition form. This year, there has been a severe drought in Beizhili, and the grain production has decreased. Please ask the court to reduce taxes and grains..."
A group of people are the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each showing their magical powers, they forcibly want to block the new policy of the imperial court, and vow not to hand over a grain of food.
Chapter 609
The night is dark and windy, and the waning moon hangs high.
Hejian government office.
"My lord, everything is alright." The master secretary handed over a document with a smile on his face, and whispered in Liu Fengzhong's ear.
Liu Fengzhong took it and glanced at him seriously. After a while, he glanced at him with satisfaction, and laughed happily: "Haha, this piece of land is finally in my hands! Well, go to Yueya Building tonight, and you won't return if you don't get drunk!"
The master was overjoyed, and said: "Thank you, sir." This is an open secret word, drinking is sharing the spoils.
"My lord, my lord is not good!"
Suddenly, a yamen servant broke in and shouted anxiously.
Liu Fengzhong sat upright and snorted coldly: "What's wrong, what's wrong in Hejian Mansion, tell me well!"
The yamen servant looked flustered, he didn't care about other things, and said anxiously: "My lord, the Tiqi from Dongchang is mobilizing the government soldiers to surround our government office!"
Immediately, Liu Fengzhong's face changed drastically, and he stood up abruptly and said loudly: "Presumptuous! Whoever can move the government army without my warrant, send the government army captain immediately!"
After the military reform, every province has a militia, which is dispatched by the Governor's Office and is responsible for daily military affairs.There are [-] soldiers in a government, commanded by the captain of the government army, and the commander of the county army by the school lieutenant of the county army. They are under two-way jurisdiction.
The yamen servant almost burst into tears, and said: "My lord, that is Dongchang Tiqi. There is a cabinet and an edict from the Ministry of War. The government army will no longer listen to you."
At this moment Liu Fengzhong finally thought of everything in the capital, and suddenly broke out in cold sweat.
He thought of a possibility, that Dongchang was going to take him under the knife and kill the chicken for the monkey to see!
"Come on!"
Liu Fengzhong knew about his affairs, so if he didn't investigate, he would lose his head if he did!After speaking, he ran to the backyard, he still had a lot of treasures, and he wanted to take them away.
Seeing the skinny master, he hurriedly stopped him and said, "It's too late, my lord, it's important to save your life..."
Liu Fengzhong didn't listen, his years of savings were all under the bed, and he was willing to give it up to others, so he ran in quickly.
The chief secretary stomped his feet anxiously, looked at the yamen servant and said, "Go quickly, keep the door, don't open it no matter what!"
"Yes..." the yamen servant agreed, and hurried to the gate.
Not long after, Liu Fengzhong hugged a big package, fastened it on his body, and at the same time said with twinkling eyes: "Go to my house, take my two sons, and go down to the south of the river. Everything will be fine when we arrive in the south of the Yangtze River..."
The chief secretary felt uneasy, Liu Fengzhong wanted to escape, but he had no ability, so he quickly stopped him and said, "My lord, don't you have someone in the court? Send someone to deliver the letter now, there is still time..."
Liu Fengzhong's expression changed, and at this time he could only speak the truth, saying: "My backer is only third rank, and he can't stop the eunuchs at all, so hurry up, I'll give you 3 taels, enough to spend the rest of your life... ..."
The head secretary's eyes were wide open, and he held Liu Fengzhong firmly and shouted: "My lord, you can't go. What should we do if you leave? My lord, there is still a way. If you think about it again, you must not escape. Bin, could it be that the king's land..."
Liu Fengzhong was sweating profusely on his head. If he was arrested, not to mention the loss of his head, but the fact that his savings over the years were gone, he would be heartbroken to death.
"Go away!" He kicked away the chief bookkeeper who had been with him for more than ten years, and strode outside.
"My lord, my lord..." the master yelled, got up and chased after him.Liu Fengzhong can run, but he can't. How can he run with dozens of people in his family?
Liu Fengzhong was so anxious that his mouth was dry and his head was covered with cold sweat. He carried the package to go to the front door, then turned around and walked to the back door.
Squeak!
Pushing open the door, just as he was about to stretch his head out to wait and see, a cold knife was already on his fat and tender neck.
The lights outside the door were brightly lit, and dozens of government soldiers were neatly dressed, holding torches high.
Hou Guoxing sat on the tall horse, looked at Liu Fengzhong with a smile on his head, and said: "Master Liu, where are you going, do you want me to send you a ride?"
Cold sweat dripped down Liu Fengzhong's face, the corners of his face trembled, he squeezed out the door, glanced at the knife on his neck, and said with a trembling smile: "Master Hou is just joking, I just want to go home, it's so late, and the official duties are over Busy working……"
Looking at the package in his hand, Hou Guoxing smiled more and said, "What a coincidence, we are also going to visit Master Liu's house, so I will give him a ride."
