[Red House] Men's clothing

Two days after the officials of Dacang were escorted to Yinchang, the guards sent back news that only part of the grain in the south of the Yangtze River had been put into the warehouse and was divided up by the officials of the granary.

They have been stationed in the granary for many years, and these officials know better what happens when they are greedy for food. However, the Shangguan threatened that the officials from the warehouse officials down to the gatekeepers were all put on their necks with knives, and their fingerprints were pressed to divide up the limited amount of summer grain. , As for other grains that should go into the warehouse, I didn't see them at all.

Everyone started to make false accounts overnight, trying to get away with it, thinking that this year's autumn grain will be available and then make up for it. If it accumulates, this gap can be made up in two or three years.

Situ Yue felt that the entire Jiangnan officialdom was crazy. With such a huge batch of food, he was greedy if he said he was greedy.The eyes and ears of the emperor who stayed in the south of the Yangtze River became blind and deaf, so he thought of Lin Hai, the father of his nominal disciple Lin Yu.

Another function of the emperor's release of Lin Hai in the south of the Yangtze River is to monitor the officialdom. Now Lin Hai is no longer effective. The emperor has long thought of replacing him. Now is the opportunity to take the crime and make meritorious service. It depends on whether Lin Hai can seize the opportunity.

Lin Hai soon went to Dayongzhou to meet Situ Yue, saying that he wanted to thank King Rong for taking care of his son.Situ Yue took a closer look at the famous Lin Ruhai, he was a very thin middle-aged man with good looks, coupled with a scholarly look, he looked more like a celebrity than an official.Situ Yue didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly, "Master Lin, do you know where the summer grain that should go into the warehouse has gone?"

"This... I don't know, but I can tell the cause and effect to the prince."

"Appreciate further details"

"A while ago, the emperor was coming to the south of the Yangtze River. Everyone knew about it in advance, but Mr. Zhen didn't bring money back from the capital. Speaking of picking up the driver every time, Mr. Zhen always brought back a large amount of money from the treasury for daily expenses. But this time I didn't bring back a tael of silver. Although I don't have any money, I still have to pick up the driver. The garden of Chun Zhen's house needs to be repainted, and the people who accompany the driver need to buy or order items every day. , everything must be exquisite, and everything must be rare. The silver was spent like water, and the summer grain was still in the field. The Zhen family hosted a banquet for officials from the Jiangnan boundary in Xuyuan, and borrowed some silver and money from everyone during the banquet. Decoration. It is said to be borrowed, but in fact, it is not repaid once borrowed. Fortunately, I have saved some family property over the years, and some good things left by my ancestors, so I took out a few to deal with it, but some people are very poor. For a while, there will be no rare treasures, so I have to use silver as the top. Where does the money come from? The prince also understands clearly that since the prince has been in the household department, the examination of the expenses of various yamen has become increasingly strict, and fraudulent dealings will never escape your eyes. Seeing that Shengjia was already on the way, the Zhen family was pressing urgently, and the grain harvest in the north was huge. Shengjia stayed for a few days for this, and someone suggested that this year's summer grain be exchanged for money to deal with it first, and wait until autumn to transport more grain. Enter the warehouse, and it will be fine if you close the account..."

"It's just that this king can't find out this time, so he will increase taxes indiscriminately in the fall. The court can add one bucket of grain to one liter of grain collected per mu of land. The severe cold is approaching, and the people must go on a diet and shrink their clothes, and survive the winter bitterly. If you can’t make it through and the whole family freezes to death, find a place to bury it and finish the matter, right?”

Seeing Lin Hai bowed his head and said nothing, Situ Yue asked again, "All the officials in Jiangnan know about it, don't they?"

"Six days before the arrival of the holy car, colleagues in Jiangnan collected enough money. Master Zhen once again hosted a banquet for the officials in Jiangnan, and set up wine in the preface garden. He made it clear that this is the emperor's palace. He showed us around for a day. A few decorations, one is a vase of rain and sunshine, which is an ancient relic from the Han Dynasty. There is a tiny bump on the bottom of the bottle, you can check it, and it is placed in the six-turn corridor of Xuyuan. The officials in the south of the Yangtze River probably know about it, and I ask the prince, for the sake of the dog, not to say what I said..."

Situ Yue waved his hand and drove Lin Hai out. Sitting on the chair alone, his teeth were itching with hatred. Together with these people, they watched the king jump up and down like a monkey for a long time. Maybe these bastards will drink Watching the singing and dancing while sipping wine, they used this king's deeds as a topic of conversation. For the sake of being so bold, there was nothing that could make them afraid.

Not long after Qin Er walked in Linhai, he brought back the things collected by the Huangshang, "Your Majesty, my subordinates have seen that there are many places that are different from the ones reported in our shop. Look at these photos, the Huangshang The ones handed in are obviously too normal. Our grain and oil shop has harvested tens of thousands of shi a few times since the beginning of summer, because the people who sell the grain are originally big families, and the harvest this year is good, so I didn’t think so much. , but our shopkeeper also asked his peers, and the big households we have dealings with have also sold grain to their peers. Look at our shop, according to the news collected by the imperial merchants, the Chen's grain and oil in Tonghua Alley received a hundred Dou japonica rice. What we harvest is not japonica rice but rice, let alone a hundred buckets, but a few hundred stones."

Situ Yue nodded, and told Qin Er to put down his things. Officials and businessmen are one, and it's okay to cover them up like this. At the end of the year, the qualifications of these imperial merchants will be disqualified. A business war will make them feel ashamed when.

Even the officials in the south of the Yangtze River are not clean, but there are more people waiting to fill the vacancies. This food has now flowed into the people. This is a blessing in misfortune. Even if the price of food is lowered, it is better than falling into the hands of people with good intentions .As long as the account books are found, these officials who are greedy for money can bleed, and it can even change the officialdom in Jiangnan.

Situ Yue was full of hope that he would find evidence of his crimes so that these people could be brought to justice. However, the matter was kept secret, and those who received the food were all decent merchants who did business according to the rules, so Situ Yue had no reason to seal them up.

On her side, she was stumped by something, and she was despondently thinking about where the Jiangnan officials should tear up the gap in selling grain. The only way to let these big families who acted as officials to identify them would be to cause endless troubles. He bit back, saying that Situ Yue was in a better position because King Rong persecuted him, but he couldn't tell.

When he was at a loss, Cheng Ju came in from the outside beamingly, "The eldest son of Liu Ye's family is here."

Cheng Yue has arrived in Jiangnan!

Situ Yue stood up, and before he went out, he saw Cheng Yue enter the door.

"Big Brother, Big Brother is much darker and thinner."

Situ Yue has never had a hobby of chatting with others, and his own brother is no exception. "How did you get to Jiangnan? Didn't you help your uncle in the capital?"

"My grandfather ordered me to come here, saying that there must be great changes in the south of the Yangtze River, so that I can learn a lot. I have already gone to Zhen's house to meet my grandfather. He suffered from heatstroke a few days ago, and now he is tired of lying in bed. The imperial doctor Said it was the root of the disease left at the beginning of the year. But my grandfather told me that it was because I was getting older and couldn't compare to the past."

After Cheng Yue finished speaking, he was still a little sad.

"By the way, my grandfather asked me to bring a message to my eldest brother: Fame is like a feather, you must cherish the feather."

"Oh, what did grandfather hear?"

"Master He from Jiangnanxidao, I visited my grandfather a few days ago and said that my eldest brother whips officials at every turn. As the old saying goes, punishment is not enough for a doctor. Now that my eldest brother is acting like this, is it the behavior of a gentleman? Looking at all the emperors and grandchildren, only the eldest brother is violent. Sex, I hope my grandfather will stop letting it go. I was in front of my grandfather the day before yesterday, and my grandfather asked me what books I read now? I answered "Historical Records of Xiaowu Benji" and "Hanshu". My grandfather said that the aunt of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Princess Liu Xing fell in love with Dong Yan, and asked him to learn poetry and book etiquette, and make friends with various celebrities. Grandpa asked me to ask you, compared with Dong Yan and Wei Qing, who is more beneficial to the country?"

"Of course it's Wei Qing."

"However, Dong Yan was praised by everyone, and those literati denounced Wei Qing as a warrior. Wei Qing spent his life fighting against the Huns, but in the mouths of those scholar-bureaucrats, he was just a groom in the princess mansion. Brother, a truly noble man Being relegated to the dirt, a man who flatters his master has met all over Jinghua, why is that?"

"It's just because Wei Qing's rights are not strong enough." Situ Yue sat upright, "Power, force, and tough methods, as long as Wei Qing can do these things, who would dare to call him a groom? If I were Wei Qing, I would never fight with those literati. Intercourse, I feel ashamed, not only my people, but also the face of my ancestors for eight generations."

"..." Cheng Yue looked at Situ Yue and thought she was just a piece of rock.

Situ Yue also realized that the second period of her life was coming, but she not only changed it, "I know my grandfather's kindness, I have always hated those monks and Taoists, but recently I have learned some fallacies, saying that the creation of the world At that moment, fifty strands of green energy flew towards the sky, and Pangu caught one in a panic. From then on, the Dao fifty, the sky's peak fourty-nine, the one caught by Pangu was called a ray of life. However, Pangu died in the end. Life can't save a person's life, but having it is better than not having it. What I want to talk about today is not the glimmer of life. What I want to grasp is not my own life. It is something invisible and intangible. I don't want to close my eyes if I can't get it. What I want to say is that my Tao is one of the 49 Taos. Just like murdering and paying debts, corrupt officials must be punished, and provocateurs must pay the price. It is not because a murderer can easily get away with a sister who is a noble concubine, and it is not because a mother who once served the emperor can exploit the common people. "

Situ Yue looked at Cheng Yue who was puzzled, so he had to use his ancestors as an example, "Did the treasury of the previous dynasty be sufficient? It is said that when the Tai-zu arrived at the treasury of the previous dynasty, he was almost blinded by gold. There were no competent ministers in the previous dynasty. Officials? When Tai-zu went to the capital to sue, the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple tried it together. The case was complicated. Didn’t the heroic king also get out of prison? Didn’t the previous dynasty have generals who shocked the Quartet? It is said that Tai-zu was once defeated and forced They hid in other people's pigpens to avoid arrest. Why did it take 15 years for the Taiping Dynasty to change its surname to Situ? Why? Cheng Yue, have you ever thought about it? The tens or hundreds of acres of hard work in the fields may be played by the uncles thinking about how many more acres they will divide when they divide the family. It is not like today, how many uncles have concealed their deeds for the sake of the world. Have the ancestors of our Situ family ever thought about it? Have they ever thought that an emperor will emerge from among the descendants? Just like I don’t believe that there are gods in the nine heavens, I also don’t believe that our family’s country is a gift from the gods to the Situ family.”

The author has something to say: I came back late today, and I only post it now, so I apologize to everyone first, I said narcissistically, someone must have swiped it several times today, O(∩_∩)O~~

Many people want to make the heroine proclaim the emperor. I won't spoil the details of what will happen in the end. I just want to tell everyone that she loved her brother very much in the early stage. This kind of love comes from the bottom of her heart and is sincere.Chengyue also trusts and relies on the elder sister very much, but their differences will become more and more serious. The heroine was seen as an extreme by people at the time, and Chengyue is the most exemplary version of that traditional education.
