Daming heir

Chapter 191 Half of Zhejiang Road

In front of Pujiang County, the crowd of onlookers began to move towards the city gate.

After observing that the officers and soldiers didn't stop them, these people were already lined up like a tide in a Qiantang, and Liu Man and his three clans who were kneeling in front of the city gate were involved in the waves.

Zhu Yunxi silently took a step back, witnessing a piece of cloth falling under his feet with blood on it.

People need to vent.

The people who have accumulated a snow disaster have already accumulated countless anger in their hearts. It is only because of helplessness and fear of power that they choose to be numb.

Now that someone has made the decision for them, with stronger power standing behind them, they can choose to vent their anger to their heart's content.

Sun Cheng and Tian Mai led the people to stand behind the emperor grandson, looking at the chaos in front of the city gate with some worry, fearing that these uncontrolled people would run into the emperor grandson.

The dark guard man entrusted by the prince had already signaled the surrounding sea gate guards to be more vigilant.

It cannot be tolerated any longer.

Witnessing how the common people vented their anger, Zhu Yunxi finally raised his hand. If these common people were allowed to indulge, there would be fewer heads on the city gate.

Sun Cheng and others, who had been ready for a long time, rushed forward and pushed the crowd away from the blood and flesh everywhere.

"The grassroots are guilty."

I don't know who yelled, and the victims knelt on the ground and began to cry.

"It's my family."

"Now that the head of the thief has been removed, Zhejiang is clear."

"In the future, everyone's life will get better and better!"

The victims of the disaster shouted their gratitude and claimed that they would build a shrine for the emperor's grandson.

A grandson of the emperor who cared about them wholeheartedly was enough for them to devote their entire lives to enshrining.

……

"The farthest three prefectures, Hengzhou, Chuzhou, and Wenzhou, have now been thoroughly checked and rectified."

"The three governments have uncovered 170 five criminal officials, 390 six families of evil gentry, and three clans have been executed, and the nine clans are sending Qin Fan to guard the border."

In the Yamen of the chief envoy of the Hangzhou government, Xia Yuanji was walking in the Wenhua Palace, holding a booklet in his hand, frowning and reporting in a low voice.

I saw him twitching his nose from time to time, and he always felt that the stench from the heads hanging on the city gate outside the city of Hangzhou floated into the yamen.

"Writing the imperial court and the Ministry of Officials, selecting clean and honest alternate officials to report to the prefectures and counties in Zhejiang."

Now that he has taken off his big cloak and sheep fur, Zhu Yunxi, who is only wearing a straight suit, walked down from the main seat and went to the porch in front of the hall.

Outside, the two green pines are lush and green, and the snow under the main pole has receded in the past few days, leaving only a shallow layer of transparent ice flakes.

Under the ice flakes, there are only half an inch of green grass tip exposed.

"The heavy snow has stopped. Fortunately, it has not been delayed until after the rain. Otherwise, the spring plowing and mulberry leaf production in Zhejiang Province this year may have to be reduced."

Looking at the scene in the courtyard, which was quietly returning to life, Zhu Yunxi sighed a little.

The snow disaster in Zhejiang Province since last year came quickly and went beyond everyone's expectations.

Xia Yuanji took the brochure, walked out of the lobby and came behind the emperor grandson, and smiled lightly: "This is the virtue of the emperor grandson, I am grateful to God."

Zhu Yunxi squinted at Xia Yuanji: "Do you believe this?"

Xia Yuanji smiled innocently: "Nowadays, the songs spoken by the people in Zhejiang Province cannot be faked."

Zhu Yunxi was suddenly helpless.

In Pujiang County, he beheaded Liu Man and the gang of officials and gentry, and their heads were hung above the city gate. He also beheaded half of the officials in the officialdom of Zhejiang Province and arrested half of the gentry for questioning.

I don't know when, Hangzhou City or Zhejiang Road, began to spread songs about him.

It probably means that Daming has a good grandson of the emperor, and the world is peaceful.

"It doesn't seem like a loss to exchange a ballad for half of Zhejiang Road." Zhu Yunxie said with a light smile.

The corners of Xia Yuanji's mouth froze.

His expression gradually turned serious and worried.

"You also know that it is half of Zhejiang Road."

"A whole half of the Zhejiang Road was cut down by you. The people are grateful, set up shrines, and spread songs. But I am afraid that there will be a lot of voices of impeachment in the court. Maybe you will be recalled soon. According to God's will."

Zhu Yunxi smiled silently.

Beheading is very simple, even for the three tribes of Yi and the nine tribes of Zhulian, it is just a matter of writing an order.

But half of the Zhejiang Road was chopped up and blood flowed into a river, which is not a simple matter.

The chief envoys, inspectors, and command envoys of Zhejiang Road left and right, five people were beheaded.

If you use a more shallow meaning to explain and describe the generalization.

It was Zhu Yunxi who beheaded five high-ranking officials in one go in Zhejiang Province this time.

After thinking about it, Zhu Yunxi thought that a long time ago, he could only see such a high-ranking official from various news.

Not to mention those county and city officials who ordinary people struggled for a lifetime, that is, the prefects and county magistrates of the Ming Dynasty today, were also chopped off dozens of people.

And those who belong to officials and government officials are even more unknown.

If such a thing is placed in later generations, I am afraid that the whole world will be shocked.

In today's world, he doesn't need to think about how the court will react.

"For the common people, there is nothing wrong with doing it alone." Zhu Yunxi made a self-evaluation of his behavior, and continued: "For Daming and the court, as well as you and me, only by eliminating these people can we get rid of them." Leave room for you and me to manipulate."

Zhu Yunxi has always made a clear distinction between offending officials and offending the people.

Now it is not the former Tang Dynasty, not the former Song Dynasty, and it is not the time when the imperial power shared the world with the powerful, nor did it share the world with the scholar-bureaucrats.

The founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Hongwu, had already stated in the emperor's ancestral precepts that the Ming Dynasty was the Ming Dynasty of the Zhu family, and it was also the Ming Dynasty of the people of the Ming Dynasty.

Officials, gentry, and merchants are not included here.

It's just that the monarchs of later generations have shamefully forgotten this point, and the so-called ancestral laws picked up by those officials cannot be changed, and they are imprisoned round and round.

Xia Yuanji thought for a while, and in a dilemma, taking the people is the most sensible choice at this time, so he gave up the draft that he had prepared for a long time.

He changed his subject and said: "The Qing Tian Order has already been written, and at this time, Dudu Tang led the guards to watch it personally, and he dare not have any rebound if he wants to come to the place.

The merchants in all prefectures and counties have announced the amount of merchant tax, and the merchants have issued a directory to register the merchant tax ratio.

At present, we only need to wait for the number of acres of the Qingtian Decree to be clarified before it can be implemented together and start collecting taxes and commercial taxes. "

Zhu Yunxi nodded: "Indulge Liu Man's presumptuousness, uproot them, and wipe them out completely, for the sake of these things today. The integration of the government and the gentry must be done without compromise. The business tax cannot be less, Whoever is missing will be held accountable."

Zhejiang Road is an experimental field, where the old man and the old man are staring at it all the time, hoping to see the results.

Zhu Yunxi would never allow it. After killing half of Zhejiang Road, these things ended without a problem in the end.

He immediately said in a deep voice: "Bringing you out of the capital is for this purpose. With Tangli here, you just let go and do it."

Xia Yuanji murmured, and was about to nod, but suddenly stopped, raised his head and said: "It's easy to say, but the government and the gentry are one... This affects the world, and it has something to do with the honor of the officials and gentry of the Manchu Dynasty. Grandson Are you really not worried?"
