Daming: At the beginning, the big snow dragon rides to create a martial arts court

It is one of the largest book clubs in the south of the Yangtze River. It was originally a book club spontaneously established by the literati in the south of the Yangtze River. They usually recite poems and make mistakes, and exchange what they have learned. After decades of development, it has become the most prestigious book club in the south of the Yangtze River.

There are not only scholars in the book club, but also great Confucian scholars, and ministers who have retired from the imperial court and returned to their hometowns...the rudimentary claws of the party have already taken shape.

Today, dozens of literati recited poems here, and one person suddenly said angrily: "Since that eunuch came to the south of the Yangtze River, there has been a bloodbath. It was locked up."

"That best friend of yours? He's the son of the Minister of Rites, right? He even won the Minister of Rites, how dare the eunuch!"

Only a scholar smashed his wine glass on the ground: "Is there any kingly law in this Ming Dynasty! Is there any justice! The dignified minister of the Ministry of Rites was taken down so hastily!"

"The Son of Heaven is stupid! I'm lucky to spoil the eunuchs, but I'm so unfortunate!"

"The emperor has no way, I can't turn a blind eye!".

Chapter 158 Colluding with Japanese Bandits

Although Jinling's Minister of Rites is pitifully small, perhaps even inferior to the fifth-rank member of the Beijing Ministry of Rites, Wailang, he is nominally one of the most prestigious positions in Nanjing's six ministries.

When such an official is taken down, all the scholars immediately share the same hatred. In their view, they will also be officials in the future. If they work hard to climb up and be taken down by an eunuch, wouldn't they vomit blood?

Immediately, the place where the poems were recited and corrected became the place where Yuhuatian and Zhu Qiyu were scolded, and all of them made extremely vicious words.

People who can enter Nanlin Book Club are either rich or noble, and children from poor families cannot enter at all. Everyone who wants to join must be recommended by two members.

Almost all of their families are vested interests in Jiangnan.

A scholar suddenly said: "Our family has been levied to make up last year's tax, which is a thousand taels."

Speaking of this, he trembled with heartache: "Our family only paid three taels of silver last year!"

"My family is also expropriated with an additional 500 taels of silver. Damn Yuhuatian, my family only needs to pay [-] taels of silver!"

"This is violating the iron law of the Taizu. The commercial tax is [-] and [-], but the imperial court collects [-] tax and [-], and even collects last year's tax. The imperial court is forcing us to rebel!"

Everyone yelled at each other, gnashing their teeth, feeling aggrieved, as if they had been greatly wronged. In their view, why should they pay taxes on the money they earned by their own skills? Paying a few taels of silver for 130 yuan a year is already too much. You are generous, and now you are collecting hundreds of taels and thousands of taels of tax, which is simply cutting your flesh.

1000 taels is enough to keep them cool for a whole year.

Now it has to be handed over to the court.

"Don't worry, the eunuch Yu Huatian will not be arrogant for long. The family ancestor has written a letter, contacted his colleagues, and impeached Yu Huatian. It won't be long before Yuhuatian will be captured and returned to Beijing!" Yang Yingjie was full of confidence.

"Old Yang made a move?"

Someone was pleasantly surprised.

Yang Yingjie nodded, with anger in his eyes: "That's natural. My Yang family also lost a lot this time. I paid tens of thousands of taels of tax. My family ancestors have contacted old friends and made friends. I will definitely not sit back and watch Yuhuatian continue to harm the country and the people like this."

"Old Yang was an important minister and good friend of the imperial court back then. His disciples were all over the court. If Elder Yang came forward to contact him, he would definitely be able to take down the eunuch Yuhuatian."

Yang Yingjie is also the one with the most distinguished status among all the scholars. His grandfather Yang Yuxuan was Minister of the Ministry of War back then. He was a good friend and had many disciples.

"What are you doing!"

"Presumptuous! This is the Nanlin Publishing House, you lowly people can't come in!"

"Eunuch, unless you kill me, don't even think about stepping in!"

The huge movement shocked these indignant and aggrieved people.

Only a scream was heard, and hundreds of Xichang fans came with swords in hand.

"Xichang Fanzi!"

"Yes...it's Yuhuatian, the butcher is here!"

"Run!"

The anger on everyone's faces disappeared, leaving only the fear of Yuhuatian.

Yang Yingjie's legs were weak, so he could barely support the table, otherwise he would have collapsed on the ground at this moment.

Everyone was surrounded by men full of viciousness. Yang Yingjie calmed down after a moment of panic. After all, his grandfather was Yang Yuxuan, the former minister of the Ministry of War.

Yang Yingjie said indifferently: "Yuhuatian, what are you doing here? My Yang family did not participate in the assassination of you. Although my surname is also Yang, it has nothing to do with Yang Chuanxiong."

Yu Huatian sneered: "Assassination of the governor has nothing to do with you, but do you think Yang Yuxuan can hide the fact that Yang Yuxuan burned the blueprint of Zheng He's treasure ship?"

"Hmph! Zheng He went to Nanyang to waste people's money and waste money. It is still thanks to Daming that Yang Gong burned the blueprint of Zheng He's treasure ship!"

Yu Huatian was a little confused for a while, not sure if this person was stubborn or stupid, but upon closer inspection, this person looked righteous and awe-inspiring, as if he believed that Yang Yuxuan's burning of the blueprint of Zheng He's treasure ship was really due to Sheji, and the corners of his mouth twitched .

Looking at the other scholars, most of them had flickering eyes, obviously (cgcb) knowing it well.

It's bullshit to burn the blueprints to contribute to the country, it's just for profit.

Yang Yuxuan took the blueprint of the treasure ship and returned to his hometown. With the blueprint of the treasure ship and his decades-long relationship with the court, he attracted some people and formed a group of smugglers at sea.

However, there are still a few who believe this statement.

Yuhuatian felt sorry for them for a while, these people are really the type who are stupid in reading.

"As we all know, it is easy to build a ship, but it is easy to build a good ship, and it is even more difficult to build a ship that can ride the wind and waves in the sea."

Yuhuatian looked at Yang Yingjie:

"The Yang family has never been involved in the shipbuilding industry before. How long has it been since Yang Yuxuan retired and returned home, and your Yang family has built a ship that is unique in the south of the Yangtze River?"

Yang Yingjie snorted coldly: "My Yang family has accumulated in this area for a long time, it's just that outsiders don't know about it."

"I just don't know, but after your head and body are separated, can your mouth still be so hard?"

Yuhuatian didn't bother to talk to them anymore, so he directly ordered the arrest.

"Wait, there is always a reason for me to wait. Could it be an unfounded reason such as burning Zheng He's treasure ship? Xuanzong did not condemn my grandfather!" Yang Yingjie stood up with awe-inspiring eyes, his eyes bright.

"Collude with Japanese pirates! Kill more than [-] people!" Yang Yingjie's face changed wildly when he said this, and he sat down on the ground.

Yu Huatian stared at him coldly, and sneered in his heart. One of the reasons why the imperial court banned the sea was the Japanese pirates' harassment.

In order to prevent the imperial court from opening the sea, Yang Yuxuan colluded with Japanese pirates, and went ashore from time to time to burn, kill and loot. With the internal support of Yang Yuxuan and others, the Japanese pirates were like gods when they went ashore, and they were often able to avoid the army that strangled them.

Yang Yuxuan and his gang of sea smugglers were the executioners who indirectly killed more than 3 people.

In their eyes, the common people are nothing but straw, and after a few years, a batch can be killed and a batch can grow again.

Yuhuatian thought he was cruel, but after learning the reason behind the Japanese pirates' looting, he was still ashamed of how these people treated human life like nothing.

"The eunuch! How dare you!"

"Bloody spout! Japanese pirates kill people, what does it have to do with us!"

"You are framed!"

The faces of all the scholars changed wildly. Most of their families were members of maritime smuggling groups, and their families had a part in colluding with Japanese pirates.

Yu Huatian's eyes were indifferent: "Those who resist will be shot to death!"

"Yes!"

All the fans yelled in unison, and killed a few without mercy, and the rest did not dare to move, and were obediently taken down.

Chapter 159

Yang Mansion.

A man and a woman walked into the gate under the guidance of servants.

This mansion has red walls and white tiles, and you can see seven entrances and seven exits at a glance.

The two stone lions outside the door are alive and powerful, and no one dares to approach them.

Just after entering the door, Yang Yuxuan greeted him from a distance, with a happy face: "Huai'an, you are finally here, this is-..."

"Qiu Moyan, my friend."

Qiu Moyan nodded slightly: "Mr. Yang."

Yang Yuxuan nodded: "If you are a good friend of Huai'an, then you are one of us."

Waving his hand, he told the servants to step back, Yang Yuxuan led the two of them to continue walking inside, before they could sit still, Zhou Huaian asked in a low voice: "Mr. Yang, I don't know why Feige sent me the letter so eagerly. "

Yang Yuxuan gently stroked his three-foot white beard, his gully face was full of concern for the country and the people, and he let out a long sigh: "Huai'an, you should know that I burned Zheng He's treasure ship back then, right?"

"Of course I know about it."

Zhou Huaian raised his sword eyebrows: "Zheng He spent a lot of money and food on his journey to Nanyang, Mr. Yang, you risked the consequences of being convicted and burned Zheng He's treasure ship. Yang Gong, what you have done, if not so..."

Yang Yuxuan patted his palm, regretting endlessly: "It's a pity that you didn't want to follow me after you resigned as the coach of the Imperial Army..."

Zhou Huaian shook his head: "Mr. Yang, I didn't resign as the head of the imperial army to enjoy the glory and wealth, but because I didn't deserve it for you. You burned the materials of Zheng He's treasure ship for the sake of Ming Dynasty, but Xuanzong blamed you."

"Mr. Yang, you summoned me here. Could it be that you are bringing up an old matter?" Having said that, Zhou Huaian seemed to have thought of something.

"Hey, Your Majesty is not in the right position, and he is quite extreme. He found out that I burned Zheng He's treasure ship back then, and wants to commit another crime. This time, my Yang family may be ransacked and exterminated."

"What? This stupid king! You are so cruel! Yang Gong, you are so dedicated to serving the country and the people that you will be killed! If things go on like this, who else is willing to think about Daming!"

Zhou Huaian's eyes widened angrily after hearing this.

Qiu Moyan said indignantly from the side: "I heard that the current emperor killed Lizong in full view, so it turned out that he was really such a tyrant."

"Mr. Yang, what are you going to do?" Zhou Huaian looked at Yang Yuxuan.

"I got the news that the eunuchs from Xichang may come soon. There are spies around the Yang manor who are always watching, and there is absolutely no way to escape through normal channels. However, I dug a tunnel a few years ago, leading directly to the outside of the city..."

Zhou Huaian glanced sideways at the city wall of Jinling, and couldn't help but marvel: "Duke Yang's mansion is built here, close to the city wall of Jinling. Could it be that this day has been expected for a long time?"

Yang Yuxuan blushed: "Be prepared for danger in times of peace."

At this time, suddenly a servant came rushing over: "Master! Master, something happened over there..."

"It's not big or small, didn't you see the master talking about things?"

Yang Yuxuan blew his beard and stared, scolded a few words, and then asked: "What's the matter?"

"Xichang arrived outside the gate, bringing the young master's body with him."

"what?"

Yang Yuxuan suddenly felt a tightness in his chest and darkness in front of his eyes. If Zhou Huaian hadn't had quick eyesight and quick hands, he might have fallen headfirst to the ground.

It took him a while to catch his breath, and he roared ferociously, gnashing his teeth: "God damn Yuhuatian! You butcher! I want you to pay for my grandson's life!"

Yang Yingjie was the offspring he focused on cultivating. He had been strictly ordered not to go out for a few days, but unexpectedly he went out secretly.

"Mr. Yang, let's talk about revenge later, if you don't leave, it will be too late."

Zhou Huaian moved his ears, and heard the sound of breaking into the door and dense footsteps.

The mansion of the Yang Mansion entered seven times and exited seven times. They were in the backyard, and it would take some time to search them in.

"Okay! Let's go!"

Yang Yuxuan immediately came to his senses and asked the Yang family members to come to his study as quickly as possible. Not long after, his two sons, three grandsons, and two granddaughters all arrived.

As for him and his son, the grandson's concubine did not inform them.

In his eyes, those women are consumables, as long as the Yang family is still there, there will be as many women as there are.

Pushing open the bookshelf in the study room, a tunnel entrance with a diameter of three feet was revealed. Yang Yuxuan had old arms and legs, and it took a long time to enter alone. Everyone in the Yang family heard the sound of shouting and killing and the sound of swords colliding outside, and knew it was Yang Yuxuan. The domesticated desperadoes were fighting with the Xichang fans, but hearing the footsteps gradually approaching, they knew that they would not be able to resist for long, so they were in a hurry.

· · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·

After finally waiting for Yang Yuxuan to get in, his son immediately got in.

When Yang Yuxuan and his two sons all got in, there was a sound of breaking the door in the yard where the study was located.

"coming!"

Zhou Huaian whispered, slowly drew his sword out of its sheath, and asked Qiu Moyan, who was waiting for him, "Qiu Moyan, please help me escort Yang Gong's family out of danger, and I will stop one or two."

"The West Factory is powerful, how can you do it alone! I will help you!"

Qiu Moyan shook her head. She admired Zhou Huaian, but she had nothing to do with the Yang family, and she didn't care about the life of the Yang family at all.

. . . 0

"Mo Yan, if you want to help me, just listen to me! Go into the tunnel and help me escort Yang Gong's family. Although the West Factory is powerful, it will not be difficult for me to escape after you leave."

Zhou Huai'an held Qiu Moyan's hand, and immediately made this infatuated beauty's pretty face flush, her red face nodded slightly, and her voice was like a mosquito: "Huai'an, I'll wait for you..."
