Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 504 There are gongs in ten places, and there are him in nine places

Liu Lian also told Zhu Zhen that Zhengdao is the head of Yintian Yinhu.

Tianshi Mansion and the Taoist temples below occupy more than half of the hidden fields and hidden households listed in "No matter the account book", there are 20 households and 16 hectares!
And this is the data at the beginning of the country.Over the past few years, the whole country has been cultivating wasteland and resuming production, and the actual number of hidden fields must have greatly exceeded the record in the "Regardless Account Book".

It is precisely because Zhang Tianshi and his subordinates, big and small, and those big households attached to them, own the most land but do not pay taxes, and control the most population, but they are not allowed to serve.How could those big accounts on the household posts be convinced?There must be trouble!

Therefore, Liu Lian believes that the crux of Jiangxi lies in Zhang Tianshi. As long as the court can make up its mind and use this "Regardless Account Book" as the basis, the population controlled by Zhengyi will be reorganized into households for the people, and the imperial family will be controlled by Lijia; , Re-clear the Zhang and record it in the yellow book.

Once Zhengdao, the largest landlord, is dealt with, Jiangxi's problems can be easily solved.

Liu Lian wrote to Zhu Zhen, hoping that he would submit "No Account Book" and the memorial on his behalf.The reason why he didn't go through formal channels was because he was worried that Hu Weiyong would be a hindrance.

Because he learned that Hu Weiyong made his fortune in Jiangxi.After he came to court to pay homage to the prime minister, his relationship with Jiangxi has always been very close.

Liu Lian asked Zhu Zhen to help him persuade the emperor and the prince to make up his mind to thoroughly investigate the case of "Regardless of Account Books".Only by reforming the administration of officials and sweeping away those corrupt officials who colluded with Zhengyi and acted as umbrellas can it be possible to clean up Zhengyi and succeed in reform in Jiangxi.

At the end of the letter, Liu Lian mentioned that his current situation was somewhat dangerous.If there is an emergency, ask him to take care of Liu Li...

~~
After reading a letter, Zhu Zhen already burst into tears on the spot.He never knew that his senior brother, a frail scholar, actually has a thunderous heart, a heart full of sincerity, and a heroic determination of "even though there are thousands of people, I will go to it"!

He secretly made up his mind, even if he killed someone whose blood would flow into rivers, and who would be left with a bad reputation for thousands of years, he would also fulfill his unfinished will for his senior brother!
Zhu Zhen adjusted his mood, let out a foul breath, and looked up at Shen Liben, his gaze was piercingly cold.

"Are you talking now, or should we talk about it after reading the account book together?" The voice of His Royal Highness King Chu seemed to come from under the Nine Netherworlds, and the surging murderous intent made the room, which was as warm as spring, a little bit colder.

Shen Li was the first to bear the brunt, and was suffocated by this powerful coercion.He knew very well that once "Regardless of the Account Book" came out, he would never be lucky - because this account book was created during his tenure!
So even if he resisted to the end now, he could not escape death.Moreover, it is necessary to take the blame for the upper and lower, and it is light to copy the nine tribes, and if it is not done, it will be the barbarian tribe.

The reason behind this is as simple as one plus one equals two.The hard part is facing all this...

In the end, Shen Liben's knees were still weak, and he knelt down, weeping and said: "I will say anything, I just hope that my wife and children will not be harmed."

"Then when you were corrupt and accepting bribes, did your wife and children enjoy the people's fat and people's anointing together?!" His Royal Highness Chu Wang said coldly: "It's already at this time, and you still negotiate terms with this king? You can only confess everything and strive for meritorious service." Road!"

"Yes, the guilty minister confessed." Seeing that the sixth child was indeed as difficult to deal with as the legend said, Shen Liben no longer took any chances.He first put aside the most terrible thing:

"From the very beginning, we never intended to kill Liu Lian! He is Liu Bowen's son, or His Royal Highness' senior brother. The criminal minister and Hu Xiang are tired of living, and this is not the way to find death. It is Xiong Qitai who made the decision, because he After losing this account book, he was terrified and wanted to get it back and kill people to silence him. He was completely crazy..."

"Didn't you also create that account book?!" King Chu asked in a deep voice.

"This account book was created when I was a criminal officer, but the subordinate officer is only following orders and has no choice but to do so." Shen Liben said that he was trying to shirk responsibility.

"Whose order?!" Zhu Zhen asked.

"Yes, it's Hu Xiang." Shen Liben swallowed and said, "Oh no, it's that bastard Hu Weiyong."

"Isn't that right?" Zhu Zhen touched his round cheeks and pondered, "At that time, Hu Weiyong was no longer in Jiangxi, right?"

"Yes." Shen Liben nodded and said, "In the first month of the third year of Hongwu, Hu Weiyong was worshiped as a political adviser of the Zhongshu Province. After defeating Yang Xian, he presided over the fabrication of household posts across the country. He instructed the guilty officials to take care of Zhengyi. He said that Jiangxi is narrow and densely populated, and there are [-] underreported households, and no one can notice..."

"How did he get involved with Zhengyi?" Zhu Zhen was really convinced, this Hu Xiang was ringing gongs in ten places, and he was there in nine places.Not to mention good or bad, just because of this ubiquitous energy, he is not a mortal.

"It's impossible for the lower officials to be clear about the reason. It is said that Hu Xiang's fortune is related to Zhengyi." Shen Liben couldn't help but lower his voice and said: "Hu Xiang was connected with Zhengyi when he was an official in Jiangxi. And then by being a great success."

"..." Zhu Zhenxin said, didn't he get to the position by bribing Li Shanchang?However, there are different opinions on this sudden rise to prosperity, and it is normal to have various versions.He then said, "Tell me more about this."

"At that time, Hu Xiang was transferred from the county magistrate of Ningguo, Zhejiang to the general judge of Ji'an Prefecture, Jiangxi. Although his official rank was promoted by one grade, his official career was definitely not smooth." Shen Liben said mysteriously: "But Hu Weiyong is ambitious, so naturally he is not Willing to sink into a subordinate, he has been looking for opportunities to make a fortune."

"I want you to explain in detail, not to tell stories." Zhu Zhen stared depressedly: "Just talk about things, don't talk about things!"

"Yes." Shen Liben said honestly: "Not long after he arrived in Jiangxi, he discovered that Li Yinbing, the inspector, was sparing no effort to attack the governor Zhu Wenzheng. At that time, everyone thought Li Yinbing was crazy. How could it be? Zhu Wenzheng's opponent? Hu Weiyong judged the situation and secretly took refuge in Li Yinbing to help him collect evidence against the governor."

"..." Hearing Shen Liben mention his cousin's name, Zhu Zhen felt very complicated.

His cousin Zhu Wenzheng is the son of his uncle Nanchang Wang Zhu Xinglong.Of course, this king of Nanchang was also conferred after the founding of the country.When the old thief raised his army, his uncle had already passed away, and the widow, Wang, heard that her younger uncle was in a separate regime, so she took him to join the old thief.

At that time, the eldest brother was not yet born, and the old thief was naturally overjoyed to see the only offspring of the old Zhu family, and raised Zhu Wenzheng as his own son.Let Xu Da and Li Shanchang be his masters and train him according to the standards of heirs.

The cousin himself is also very competitive. He is brave and good at fighting, resourceful and resourceful, and won the support of the soldiers.On his way to start a business, the old thief has repeatedly made outstanding achievements.And he also showed a special pattern. Once Zhu Yuanzhang asked him: "What kind of official do you want to be?" '

He replied with great enthusiasm: "Uncle has become a great cause, why not be rich? First give relatives official titles and rewards, how can we convince the public?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy to hear this, and loved this nephew even more.Later, the Privy Council was changed to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and he was appointed as the Metropolitan Governor to control Chinese and foreign military forces.
