I'm really not the carpenter emperor
Page 145
Hearing this, Sun Chuanting, who stepped on the pontoon bridge, paused and said:
"Murder and overtake!"
Hearing this, the fat Chu Wei naturally didn't believe it, he just took it as a joke, how could such a bookish person do such a business of murdering and stealing goods...
"What an oddity."
He shook his head, and went to find other wealthy businessmen who were familiar with him.
……
In the pavilion in the middle of the lake, there is a famous piano playing music, and maids and servants come and go to serve.
The five people who stomped their feet and shook the whole Hangzhou Mansion were laughing and chatting with each other. Tang Guozuo, Marquis of Lingbi, stood up and toasted:
"Come on, Master Cai's [-]th birthday, on behalf of the disciples of Xunchen, I would like to offer you a toast!"
Tang Guozuo dare not neglect this Cai.
In the future, eating, drinking and having fun everywhere, and robbing civilian girls and so on, will have to rely on big families like the Cai Mansion to communicate with each other, manage up and down, and cross the sea.
The children of officials like Tang Guozuo, wealthy merchants like Caifu, and representatives of local officials like He Shibai, the magistrate of Yuhang, have long formed an interest group.
The five people on the table are just the epitome of the Jiangnan Chaebol Group.
Each of them has some shady things that cannot be handled by one person, but five powerful people in various aspects get together, which censor or official would dare to provoke them?
The officials are all self-sweeping, and the small people, even if they hand in the complaints to the magistrate's yamen or the governor's yamen, most of them never hear from them.
It may even lead to death, this is the power of the chaebol group!
The government can't move, can the imperial court move them casually?
These people are all mobilizing the whole body, unless the court ignores the influence, the emperor himself has great majesty, determination and courage.
There are a few emperors who are idle and want to touch these long-established chaebol groups. This bone is not easy to chew.
To put it bluntly, if you really go to investigate, people from all walks of life, few butts are clean, you can kill one or two, can you kill them all?
If they don't kill all of them, does it work to kill those few?
Kill them all, who will lead the troops, who will maintain the basic order in the local area, and even the court will be purged. Can the newly appointed officials get started as soon as they come?
Moreover, even if you work hard to eradicate this interest group, after a few years, there will still be a new interest group to replace it, and then it will rot. Is it worth it?
Since ancient times, has this problem been completely solved?
These are all issues that Zhu Youxiao, the emperor, needs to consider. What he wants is to extend Daming's life, and even bring Daming to prosperity and prosperity!
Instead of operating fiercely like a tiger in one meal, Daming was allowed to finish the game ahead of schedule.
After all, Tang Guozuo was still a Xunchen, he brought the wine himself, and Mr. Cai had to drink it, so he got up immediately, took it in his hand with a smile, and said:
"Since Master Hou has said so, the old man should be respectful rather than obedient."
Tang Guozuo nodded, put down his wine glass and was about to sit down, but sat on a person, he bounced off reflexively, and said angrily:
"Who are you, why are you sitting in this marquis' seat?"
Chapter 231 The noble person occupies the high position
It was only then that everyone noticed that there was actually a person sitting in Tang Guozuo's original position when Tang Guozuo got up to toast while all of them were not paying attention.
Faced with Tang Guozuo's dancing and dancing, his anger increased, while Sun Chuanting looked calm and elegant, and put his hand in a gesture of invitation, thanking him:
"Master Cai, my father is Sun He from Suzhou Mansion, who trades in cloth. I believe you must have heard of it."
"Uh……"
I have to say that this question really stumped Cai Hou, the serious and honest richest man in Hangzhou. He was thinking in his heart: there is a cloth trader named Sun He in Suzhou who is a master?
Why is this name so strange? How could I, Cai Hou, have never even heard of such a person...
"Sun He, Sun He..."
Cai Hou muttered it several times in his mouth. The name, which he had never heard before, was really a little familiar, so he smiled and said:
"It turned out to be the son of the Sun family in Suzhou!"
Sun Chuanting had already thought about what to say next, but when he heard the words, he was dumb for a moment, frowned, and cast out his doubts:
"You recognize me?"
"I know, how can I not know the name of Mr. Sun He? Mr. Sun is late, and I will punish myself with three cups!" Cai Hou laughed, and the old man did not blush at all.
"Forget about self-punishment." Sun Chuanting sneered, looked at the embarrassed man in front of him, and asked:
"Who is this--?"
Lingbi Hou Tang Guozuo stood there for a long time, and the wind blew for a long time. He originally planned to settle the score with the girl. Hearing what Cai Hou said, it seemed that the surnamed Sun had some background, and he was stuck there for a while, not knowing what to do.
His face was cloudy and cloudy. After a long time, he suddenly smiled and said:
"The Marquis of Lingbi, Tang Guozuo, the ancestor is—" Tang Guozuo was interrupted by Sun Chuanting just after speaking, "Quickly move a chair for this Lord Hou!"
He really didn't want to hear this master brazenly tarnish the reputation of his ancestors any more.
"Ah--" Cai Hou signaled his servants to fill a glass of wine for Sun Chuanting, and said with a smile:
"The old man has already sent an invitation card to Master Sun, why don't you see him come to catch up with the old man?"
"He's sick and can't move." Sun Chuanting chuckled, drank the wine in one gulp, and said suddenly:
"Recently, the rebels on the Hangzhou side are led by Xu Fang and He Kuangzheng, and they are about to hit Yuhang. As the magistrate, don't you know how nervous you are?"
He Shibo, the magistrate of Yuhang, hadn't heard the meaning of Sun Chuanting's words at this moment, and looked at Tang Guozuo who had just sat down, and both laughed loudly:
"These troublesome people will die as soon as they die. No matter how big the chaos is, it will be calmed down sooner or later."
"Even if it subsides, Yuhang was ruined by the rebels, and people are devastated, you, the prefect of Yuhang, can still do it?" Sun Chuanting felt strange and suppressed his anger.
Hearing this, He Shibo finally felt that there was something wrong with the kid from the rich family in front of him. Why was he of a different class and cared so much about the life and death of his subordinates?
He chuckled, put a mouthful of shredded pork into his mouth, felt the chef's superb knife skills, closed his eyes while chewing and said:
"Maybe Sun Gongzi has never been exposed to these."
"The imperial court has resigned more than ten officials in Fucheng, and more than 30 officials in the entire Hangzhou government have lost their positions. The rebellion is pacified, and we need local officials to govern and calm the people. We will definitely not be held accountable."
"Besides, even if you lose your official position because of this matter, you can return to your hometown for two years at most to give lectures, spend some time in the wild, and then go to Beijing to pay some respect and take care of it, and you can still come back to be an official."
"You can't tell. I'm not just a mere magistrate at that time, Mr. Sun, do you think this makes sense? Hahaha..."
"Young Master Sun is worrying too much!" Cai Hou also said at this time:
"Which one of you here doesn't know many high-ranking officials and dignitaries, finding one of them, rehabilitating and promoting He Zhifu, is just a matter of one sentence."
Tang Guozuo also sneered:
"The emperor thought that Tang Guozuo would submit to the court if I was exempted from the post of coordinating the defense of Nanjing. He was wrong. Wei Guogong's Xu family and my Tang family are family friends!"
"It's been two years, my young master is in Jinling City, and he can do whatever he wants, no one dares to say anything!"
As he said that, he drank his glass of wine in one gulp. Judging from the meaning, it seemed that he still had a lot of dissatisfaction with Zhu Youxiao's treatment two years ago.
Sun Chuanting glanced at him, as if looking at a dead person.
"You really can't guess, what is His Majesty's intention to reserve the position of the military governor's mansion for you?"
Tang Guozuo made a "cut".
"What could be the intention, my grandpa is Tang He, King of Dongou!"
"Don't say that the current emperor, even if the late emperor is still there, how dare you not give me Tang's a little bit of noodles, so as to avoid my Nanjing coordinated defense, that's just pretending."
Seeing this guy's proud appearance, Sun Chuanting decided not to continue talking to a fool.
He just couldn't figure out how Tang He, an outstanding person who waited for a hundred years, could have such a direct descendant. "Arrogance" is no longer enough to describe him.
Tang Guozuo is completely stupid, if he doesn't play with Tang's lineage, he will not give up...
Sun Chuanting casually looked at the five people around him, looked around at the extravagant scene, drank a glass of wine, shook his head and sneered:
"Sad, sad..."
Cai Hou noticed the changes in Sun Chuanting and said with a smile:
"The son is a noble person, and the noble person occupies a high position. Since ancient times, what is so sad?"
"You are all nobles. I feel sorry for the people of the world, and for the Ming Dynasty!" Sun Chuanting became angry without warning, overturned the table, and shouted:
"The world is rotten, just tens of miles away in Yuhang, the people are suffering from the siege of the city by rebellious soldiers, yet you can still sit here majestically, singing and dancing!"
"Cai Hou, you asked why it's sad, let me tell you. The noble person occupies a high position, but if the world doesn't follow him, is it sad?!"
"If you are in a high place, if you can't be followed and attached by the world, even if you are rich in waist and powerful, you will still be too cold at the height, and you will fall hard if you climb up!"
Only then did Tang Guozuo react, pointing at him and saying:
"Who are you, you must not be the son of Sun He!"
"Sun He is a person I made up at random. You don't ask in-depth questions, but you actually believe it completely. You can see the hypocrisy of everyone!"
Sun Chuanting sneered, stepped on the overturned table with one foot, and said:
"This is the imperial decree of His Majesty today. I am the new governor of Zhejiang appointed by His Majesty today, and I am responsible for calming the chaos!"
"Sun Chuanting?!" He Shibo was still an official after all, when he saw the imperial decree, his knees softened, and he knelt down, trembling.
The people sent by the current emperor himself are either direct descendants, or they are extremely trustworthy and want to decentralize power.
The three provinces suffered a major earthquake, and Wang Zaijin was helping the disaster. The emperor almost ignored his actions in the disaster area and ordered Yang Zhaoji to obey his orders.
As expected, Sun Chuanting should be the same.
Cai Hou was paralyzed on the ground. He had already heard that the new Zhejiang governor, Sun Chuanting, was coming to take office, but he didn't expect him to come so soon.
Just a few days after the news spread, Sun Chuanting was still in Yulin, but he rushed to Yuhang on the back. Is this the speed of leading soldiers?
What kind of team can march so fast.
As soon as he thought of this, there was a sudden commotion in Cai's mansion. Under the anxious gaze of all the children of the big family, there were continuous and fierce footsteps all around, and the noise was getting closer and closer.
A group of soldiers in gray and black armor came into view, rushed in and surrounded the entire garden around the lake.
The hulking general at the head is none other than Niu Chenghu, the former Yulin Qianzong.
Chapter 232 Do You Know Who You Are Talking To
Cai Hou remained silent, looking at Sun Chuanting, thinking carefully in his mind whether the governor had other purposes for leading the troops here at this moment.
After some futile work, he let go of his initial panic, shook his head and chuckled:
"Sun Bingbei wants to celebrate the old man's birthday, so he should let him know in advance, why not bring so many soldiers to guard him?"
"There are quite a few housekeepers in this old man's house..."
Sun Chuanting looked around, and really saw some servants leading Dingkou, who was guarding the courtyard, coming forward, and they also had basic weapons in their hands, all of them staring at each other.
He heard the meaning of Cai Hou's words.
Calling it Bingbei is to remind myself that it has not been formally handed over at the Futai Yamen in Hangzhou, and it is not the governor of Zhejiang. A Yulin Bingbei is too lenient when he comes to find a local tycoon.
Sun Chuanting didn't want to break skins with all the strata when he first arrived, so he turned around and signaled Niu Chenghu to ask the generals to put away their weapons.
"Prefect He, Yuhang is about to be besieged by rebels. Although Sun is not the governor of Zhejiang, I still want to remind you to go back as soon as possible and let everyone do their own thing."
He Shibo was taken aback for a moment, then glanced at Cai Hou and the others, thought for a moment, and immediately said:
"What Sun Bingbei said is that this official, I will return to Yuhang to take up my post, work together with the army and the people, work together to resist the rebellion, set up a list to calm the people, etc., I still understand!"
Sun Chuanting snorted, noncommittal.
After He Shibo, the magistrate of Yuhang, finished speaking, all the Yuhang government officials looked at each other in blank dismay, and under the murderous eyes of everyone in Cai Hou's mansion, they all confessed their crimes and left.
"It's reasonable, it's reasonable, we'll do our own thing..."
"Let's go!"
In such a situation, no one believed that Sun Chuanting did not want to do something. Although he had a good relationship in the past, he also took a lot of money from the Cai family.
But the wall fell and everyone pushed, and Sun Chuanting became the governor of Hangzhou in the future, still holding the Qin army in his hand, and standing behind the emperor. If he wanted to punish the Cai family, who would dare to speak for the latter?
Why don't you hurry up and get back to your post to do something good, wait for the mutiny to pass, and then manage it up and down, even if you are transferred to another place, as long as you can keep this black hat, it will be good.
