The Red House starts from Liaodong

Chapter 386

Before the emperor was in power.

Shi Ding, on behalf of Xungui's power, took refuge in the emperor and placed his bet in advance.

And Liu Yiru in front of him is also the emperor's master, a very famous academician with many disciples.

just now.

Liu Yiru supported the court alone, and he was far inferior to this person's power.

Shi Ding's attitude was very respectful.

As far as he knows.

Liu Yiru sent his favorite student to Shaanxi to be responsible for recruiting rioters, and the actions have begun to bear fruit.

With the court's call for peace, the civil unrest will of course subside.

Shi Ding thinks so.

The situation was just as he had imagined. Countless rioters in Shaanxi responded to the government's call and accepted the official's call for peace.

The rioters put down their weapons, prepared to get relief, started farming again, and looked forward to a new life in their hearts.

It was they who took up arms and fought to gain new hope.

Immediately after their simple wish had been fulfilled, they dropped their arms and gave up the struggle.

After listening to Shi Ding's thoughts, Liu Yiru had a deeper understanding of Marquis Ping Liao himself.

Shi Ding sent Liu Yiru away and went to Jia's mansion.

On the sedan chair going back, Liu Yiru looked troubled.

The governor he sent to Shaanxi, that is, his protégé Zhou Shifeng said that in Zhou Shifeng's letter, he believed that he would be able to quell the civil unrest within this year.

It doesn't cost a single soldier.

Currently.

It is indeed not a good time to rebel against Jinjiang Town.

Although Liu Yiru is powerful, he doesn't even have his own house in the capital, but borrows from a friend's house.

When his house in the capital caught fire, it was not repaired.

Such a move is commendable, and they all praised Mr. Liu for his incorruptibility and dedication to the country.

My friend has several houses, and this place was vacated for Liu Yiru, and Liu Yiru's housekeeper is managing it inside and out.

In fact, many officials are like this, wanting to leave a reputation of incorruptibility.

Many officials in the capital will temporarily live in temples.

The temple is poor.

Eating is also eating vegetarian food.

In the busiest temple, the vegetarian food must be the most delicious.

After Liu Yiru returned to his study, he picked up a letter from a student asking for food, in which he talked at length about how to manage people's livelihood.

"Zhou Shifeng is still talented."

In the huge study room, the bookshelves are full of books, there are all kinds of rare books, and there are many picture scrolls, which are put away in painting bottles.

Shaking his head, Liu Yiru sighed again.

The disciples asked him for help, hoping to gain his support, and persuaded the court to send more food for disaster relief, so as to start governance.

such a pity.

"If the court has food, how can it fall into such a predicament."

Liu Yiru put down the letter again, thinking about how to deal with it.

The Liaodong War last year emptied the national treasury, and the collection of various places collected all future taxes. The situation is unfavorable.

And King Zhongshun has made various big deals this year.

The rewards for Mongolia in western Liaoning and the expansion of recruits.

Western Liaoning has a population of only 10, of which there are more than 3 soldiers, all relying on domestic supplies, and more soldiers need to be recruited.

And the rewards for the soldiers last year have not yet been issued.

There are also soldiers on the Nine Sides who have been in arrears for many years. Last year, there were many mutinies, and no one dared to delay any longer.

The king of Nan'an County has also been in a hurry many times, telling the court that the southern border is unstable, and it should increase the supply of food and salaries to Yunnan.

Qingzhang is the whole country's fields.

This thought flashed through Liu Yiru's mind.

There is insufficient taxation in the whole country, and more money is saved everywhere, so there are only two ways to save money.

throttling.

He has advocated that even himself live in friends' homes, and many officials live in temples, but it has not had much effect.

Open source.

Then the only way is to add more registered acres.

Only acres of land can produce food.

However, most of Yintian is in the hands of nobles, eunuchs, officials, squires, generals, and even his own family.

His clan also had many hidden fields.

If you want to clear the country's acres of land.

He will face counterattacks from all forces, even his own people will oppose him, and his reputation will be completely ruined.

And can the emperor support him?

After thinking about it, Liu Yiru still felt that he should be prudent.

The country's situation is so critical, and further reforms will anger the officials, generals and gentry across the country.

"The king of loyalty and obedience should be taught not to wander."

Having made up his mind, Liu Yiru extended his knife to King Zhongshun.

In Wenhua Palace.

Liu Yiru said to the emperor.

"Although the Fujian officials' impeachment is true, Jinjiang is powerful and cannot easily force the opposition.

King Zhongshun's actions are not good for the country.

And without going through the imperial court, he eagerly expanded his troops by [-] soldiers, and the military strength in western Liaoning had reached [-], and he asked for food and supplies many times.

Everywhere did not dare to refuse, the officials increased the levy, and the remaining cotton, cloth, knives, guns, firearms and other armaments were countless, and the people complained. "

When the emperor heard this, he became suspicious.

"King Zhongshun said that the Jinjiang army is strong, if the Liaoxi army is not expanded, in case the Jinjiang army suddenly rebels, there will be no soldiers to defend the area around the capital.

Moreover, after the Jinjiang army wiped out the barbarians, there will be no restraint from now on, and they can cross the sea to attack Shandong with all their strength, and become cholera that is bigger than the barbarians. "

Liu Yiru didn't take it seriously after listening.

He is different from King Zhongshun.

His focus is on the country, because others are in the country and are responsible for domestic affairs, and the civil unrest in Shaanxi is his big responsibility.

King Zhongshun is in the west of Liaoning, and he is in charge of the affairs of the east of Liaoning. Jinjiang Town is his enemy.

therefore.

Liu Yiru said.

"Even if it's true what King Zhongshun said, the imperial court should settle the domestic affairs first, and then the Liaodong affairs.

Domestic affairs have not been resolved, and instead, they are discarding the basics and chasing after the last, which is actually a way to harm the country.

And according to the minister's understanding, Marquis Ping Liao has no intention of rebelling, so he should go with the flow to appease the other party and win time for the country to relax, which is a good strategy. "

The emperor looked pensive.

If it can be as Liu Yiru said, then the country will be stable, and Liaodong will also be calmed down. This is what the emperor has always wanted to do since he was in power.

He was unwilling to make peace with the barbarians, as it would hurt his reputation too much.

But he wasn't blind to the danger either.

"I'm afraid that in the end, as King Zhongshun said, if we don't unite with all parties to restrain Jinjiang Town, raising tigers will become a serious disaster."

Hearing the emperor's worries, Liu Yiru said affirmatively.

"According to Zhou Shifeng, the governor of Shaanxi, the civil unrest in Shaanxi can be put down this year, and when the civil unrest is over, King Zhongshun can deal with Jinjiang Town."

The emperor knew that Zhou Shifeng was a student of Liu Yiru, and he was personally recommended by Liu Yiru.

When court ministers recommend ministers, they must avoid suspicion.

However, the emperor trusts Liu Yiru and is willing to delegate power to him. He only hopes that he can share the worries for the king, share the worries for the king earlier, and solve the problems before and after the king.

Therefore, he turned a blind eye to Liu Yiru's illegal promotion of cronies in the court.

"In that case, do as Mr. said."

Liu Yiru is the emperor's master, and the emperor has called him Mr. since he was a boy, and he has not changed his words even if he is in charge.

"Emperor Shengming."

Liu Yiru was moved and relieved, and then he resigned under the leadership of the eunuch.

~~~~~~
Jia Fu.

Xue Baochai's family suddenly chose to move out, while Jia's mother was still staying, Mrs. Wang had agreed, and Wang Xifeng personally assisted.

The Xue family already had a house in the capital.

But in front of the house, there is no family name, it is not much different from ordinary big family's house, but it is bigger.

Xue's family, who moved away from Jia's mansion, no longer has anything to rely on, let alone integrate into the nobles in the capital.

However, the children of the Xue family have already left the capital and went to Liaodong to join Jinjiang Town, whether it is Xue Pan from the first room or Xue Biao from the second room.

The former participated in the maritime trade organized by Jinjiang Town in Jinling, and the latter worked in Pingliaohou's Mansion.

Jia Zheng realized later, and finally learned that the girl from the Xue family would also marry Marquis Ping Liao, in the name of Teng's wife.

"It doesn't make sense."

This backstab by the palace made Jia Zheng furious.

Compared with a few years ago, the Wangfu used the position of the Jingying Jiedushi in exchange for Wang Ziteng's own future's backstab.

The backstab this time was even more unacceptable to Jia Zheng, it was too lowly.

Why do the two families have to do this? Wouldn't it make the honorable families in the entire capital see it, and wonder how to make a joke in their hearts.

When Jia Amnesty heard the words, he came to Jia Zheng to confirm the matter, and when he learned that it was true, he blamed Jia Zheng.

"You have been hesitant about this matter, and you have never taken the initiative. I have asked you to send someone to urge you many times, but you feel ashamed and don't do it.

Now that the outsiders Wang's family have taken advantage of it, I really don't know what to say. "

Jia Zheng was originally ashamed and angry, but after hearing his elder brother's accusation, both of them were past the age of knowing their destiny, so they couldn't bear it.

"I think that the ambitious generation of Ping Liaohou may not necessarily suffer disaster at home, so it is better to take this opportunity to retire."

"You are such a fool."

Jia She laughed angrily.

Jia Amnesty was actually envious of his younger brother.

There is a mother's preference, and his children are all outstanding.

His concubine's girl, Tanchun, is not the slightest bit better than his own concubine's girl, Yingchun. His concubine's son, Jia Huan, is also favored by Jia She.

Even during festivals, in front of Jia Mu, people from both houses were present, and they praised Jia Huan for his talent.

It is to improve Jia Huan's status so as not to continue to be abused.

pity.

He can only talk about what happened in the second house.

Jia Zheng did not change his attitude and showed his respect for the concubine, but his words had no effect in the end.

"If you want to withdraw from the marriage, you can withdraw, and you can't scare me."

Over the years, Jia Amnesty has won over a group of military forces, especially the Jiedu Envoy of Ping'an Town, who has an extraordinary relationship.

In the past, it was necessary to borrow money to help the other party expand its strength.

As Jia's family intervened in the sea trade, they had living money in their hands, and they became closer since then.

The eldest son's first wife in Ping'an Town was already sick, and when she died of illness, she offered to marry her, and she also had a daughter.

Although it is a concubine, the other party is also a continuation, so it is worthy of it.

Of course Jia Zheng was angry.

Although he had doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to make up his mind for such a big matter. He was originally a weak person.

At this time, Shi Ding came to the door.

Discuss about Ping Liaohou.

"What? It must not be like this."

Shi Ding heard Jia Zheng's thoughts and quickly dissuaded him.

Although Jia's mansion is mediocre, Shi's mansion doesn't want to see Wang's mansion become more and more powerful.

"Wang Ziteng didn't do anything absolutely, and also revealed in a veiled manner that he would arrange for girls from the Xue family and girls from Jia's family to enter Jinzhou together.

If he heard your words, Wang Ziteng would definitely jump up happily. "

"Ugh."

Jia Zheng sighed.

Shi Ding shook his head.
