I'm really not doing business

Chapter 100 Isn't the imperial court asking for taxes?We pay!

Chapter 100 Isn't the imperial court asking for taxes?We pay!

Zhang Juzheng was always so patient, and this was what Xu Jie regretted the most. If Zhang Juzheng could advance a little more, Xu Jie or the noble gentry of Nanya would not be so embarrassing.

But Zhang Juzheng is just like this step by step.

"Why did Zhang Juzheng target the Gu family in the first place?" Xu Jie said rather emotionally: "Because the Gu family controls the grain roads of the entire Nanya, it means that the ground in Nanya wants to use the price of grain to provoke the poor coolies to shadow them." From a powerful person, it has basically become impossible."

"Fight without breaking, as long as you hold the grain road, the ground in the south of the Yangtze River will not be chaotic, and the situation of fighting without breaking can be maintained."

"You know those poor coolies, when they are hungry, they will become fierce, as if there is no one in the world who can stop them; as long as you can give them a bite to eat, they will become docile; If you give them another piece of clothing, they will be grateful; if you give them another pair of shoes, they will give up their hearts and kneel on the ground and call us good people.”

Xu Jie found that Zhang Juzheng was much more difficult than in the past, and all of this was caused by the contradiction. Zhang Juzheng was already powerful enough before, but now Zhang Juzheng and them, the gentry and court officials, have opened up a rift. An insurmountable gap.

Zhang Juzheng, who has become more powerful, is indeed very difficult to deal with.

Grasping the road of food means grasping the most prominent contradictions, and grasping the stomachs of the people.

Xu Fan was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Then why don't we give food, clothes, and shoes to the poor coolies, tenant servants, and wandering bandits? Instead, let the imperial court do this big job." Good man! The imperial court wins people's hearts, what are we winning?"

Xu Jie sneered and said: "Giving the vain money to the poor, isn't that a crime? Can people's hearts be used as money? Just like you said, when the civil turmoil breaks out, at most a little rice will be paid. We can send civil disorder gifts out of the country and let them go to other places to toss about."

"After the imperial court puts down the rebellion, they can occupy the fields."

Xu Fan was stunned, and could only say that Jinshen had his own standards and style.

"Father, the imperial court ordered all the armor and crossbows to be returned to the imperial court. Can we hand them over?" Xu Fan asked, taking a step forward.

"Hand over, how can we not hand over, our Xu family in Huating has to hand over, and the gentry on the ground in Nanya have to hand over, and then Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong and Guangxi areas, this matter is Zhang Juzheng's conspiracy." Xu Jie leaned on the chair, The fingers rubbed together extremely quickly, thinking about countermeasures.

"Armors and crossbows are not the point." Xu Jie stretched out his hand and said, "Hundred armors, thousands of crossbows, if you can guard the house and protect the courtyard, can you conquer the world?"

Xu Fan thought for a while and said, "Emperor Cheng Zuwen?"

Emperor Cheng Zuwen, Zhu Di, had less than fifteen sets of armor, 800 men, and not even a thousand crossbows when he raised his troops. Didn’t he conquer the world as usual?

Isn't this a ready-made example?It was still from the Ming Dynasty.

"Just be mad at me! Be mad at me! You have to be mad at me to death!" Xu Jie slapped the table and stood up, pointing at his son angrily and said, "I'll let you be mad!"

"Emperor Cheng Zuwen is a special case, a special case! In history, have you ever seen any feudal lord enter the capital and become emperor? Which one? Come up with another one!"

"I'm furious!"

"Father, calm down, calm down." Xu Fan hurriedly poured a cup of tea for Xu Jie, and said with a smile, "Go ahead."

Xu Jie owed it to his good health, otherwise he would have passed away if he was contradicted by his son at this age. He said angrily, "What did you say just now? Ah, yes, the armor is strong, that's not the point. Those armors and strong crossbows can only guard the home and guard the courtyard, and they can't rebel at all."

"Zhang Juzheng, the poison lies in the matter of differentiation." Xu Jie frowned and said: "The hemp rope is only broken at the thinnest point, Zhang Juzheng is now very powerful."

"The gentry on the ground in Nanya are not monolithic, advancing and retreating together with honor and disgrace, but full of contradictions everywhere, and each family is different. For example, the three families of our Songjiang Mansion, Gu, Xu, and Shen, are actually happy. We exchanged fields for ship leads, and sailed south to the Western Seas, because Songjiang Shipyard is closer to us."

"But in some places the gentry are not happy."

"Now the imperial court wants each family to hand over their armor and crossbows, which is to determine the list."

Xu Fan asked in a low voice, "What list?"

"The list of family raids." Xu Jie said with a solemn expression: "Look, Zhang Juzheng directly came to the center to blossom among the gentry who were already unstable, and immediately divided them into two groups, one group was willing to hand over armor and crossbows Yes, one faction refuses to hand it over."

"Then Zhang Juzheng will take the faction that is willing to surrender, and attack the handful that are unwilling to surrender."

"Afterwards, Zhang Juzheng has a lot of tools in his hands, and he can divide the gentry again, such as returning the field to change the boat, one group is willing to change, and the other group is not willing to change, and then Zhang Juzheng continues to bring this group willing to change, to attack That handful are unwilling to change."

"It goes on and on like this, bit by bit, and this matter is done without knowing it. Zhang Juzheng really deserves to be damned, he played this contradiction to perfection!"

Xu Fan seemed quite surprised and asked: "Zhang Juzheng is so powerful?"

"That is, you don't care who taught the students." Xu Jie still said a little proudly, Zhang Juzheng could not deny a basic fact no matter what, Zhang Juzheng was Xu Jie's student.

Xu Fan immediately said: "In the 32nd year of Jiajing, Zhang Juzheng wrote a long letter and parted ways with his father. His father still angrily called him a traitor. It doesn't look like his father's student. , It started with my father."

"Let's go, Luo Qianhu has been waiting for a long time." Xu Jie was so hung up that he didn't turn around, out of sight and out of mind, he immediately waved his hand to tell Xu Fan to get out of here!

roll!roll!roll!
Xu Fan knelt down again, kowtowed and said: "Father knows that Zhang Juzheng is powerful, and also knows that Zhang Juzheng is stronger than before, and also knows that now Zhang Juzheng has His Majesty's support, and standing behind him is the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, who belongs to the imperial power." Support will be more powerful than powerful."

"The little emperor didn't even want to let Zhang Siwei return to the court, so as to hinder Zhang Juzheng."

"Father, don't do that act of manipulating arms to block the traffic anymore. We can't stop it. We make money honestly. Our Xu family can still be stable. Our children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Without children and grandchildren, how can there be forever forever?" move?"

"Boy, let's go, father, take care."

Xu Fan kowtowed again, then stood up, left the study step by step, followed Luo Bingliang and left the Xu family's old house.

Xu Jie sat in the old house for a long time, his son's official status was cut off, and Xu's family was pushed to the top of the storm, Xu Jie's eyes flickered.

And Luo Bingliang sent Xu Fan on the road to exile, including Xu Fan's wife and children, a total of more than a dozen people, so many prisoners, Luo Bingliang gave two hundred households, and fifty soldiers from the south.

The reason why so many people accompanied him was not because he was afraid that Xu Fan would run away. Even if Xu Fan was asked to go to Jizhou by himself, he would still be able to go, but he would not run away. The reason why so many people accompanied him was because Luo Bingliang was afraid that someone would attack Xu Fan on the road .

The ruin of Xu Fan is not the end of the pursuit. Many criminals will die on the road to exile.

Luo Bingliang sent Xu Fan away, and immediately ran to Kunshan. A big fish had been caught here. Now it was time to eat the fish. Luo Bingliang had his own method for how to stun, scale, and disembowel the fish.

When he arrived at the Kunshan County Yamen, Luo Bingliang first interrogated Gu Shaofang, who was the son of Gu Zhangzhi, the governor of Yingtian, who was a candidate in the first year of Wanli.

Luo Bingliang did not execute the sentence, but asked Gu Shaofang to sit down. The imperial court has not deprived Gu Shaofang of his reputation, and it is against the rules to use torture on Juren.

Luo Bingliang said quite gently: "Now there are 500 Nanbing soldiers in Kunshan, and Chen Lin, the deputy commander, personally sits in the town. When the Japanese pirates broke out, you were still young and you didn't know. I can tell you that the [-] soldiers Hundreds of southern soldiers, if they fight Japanese pirates, they can fight more than [-]."

"Last year, under the command of Yu Shuai, he conquered eighteen villages in one day. The one-eyed six of Jinniutang, known as the reincarnation of Erlang Zhenjun, and his village name Xiaotian, gathered more than [-] people to build a large village with guns and boats. Two, five hundred soldiers from the South wiped it out in one day, and even burned the village.”

"Do you need me to explain to you in detail about the combat power of our Great Ming Southern Army?"

"No need, no need." Gu Shaofang waved his hands again and again. He knew that the southern soldiers were fierce, but Yu Dayou divided his troops to take down the eighteen villages in Nanya one day, and he still pulled the big butt with a knife, which opened the eyes of the gentry in Nanya and awakened them. Deep in their memory, the fear of being dominated by Japanese pirates.

The Japanese pirates are already very fierce, but these southern soldiers are more than ten times fiercer than the Japanese pirates.

Luo Bingliang said quite accurately: "So, don't expect that someone will rescue you, someone will help you. Your father has already been brought to the capital Xu Xing to ask questions. Whatever I ask, you can answer."

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't answer. I will find out for myself. The imperial court also wants your attitude. Let's see if your family has a little bit of obedience."

"Where is the hidden silver?"

Gu Shaofang's eyes dodged a little, and he shook his head quickly and said: "The 78 taels of silver in the family were all recovered by Tiqi!"

"If you don't tell the truth, forget it." When Luo Bingliang heard what Gu Shaofang said, he didn't seem to bother to ask any more.

Otherwise, Gu Shaofang is also unlucky. He is a new imperial examination person. According to the Ming Dynasty's imperial examination system, it was the first time he went to Beijing to take the Jinshi examination. The imperial court paid the travel expenses to participate in the imperial examination. Something went wrong.

If he had already entered the capital, Gu Shaofang would have been able to escape this prison with the identity he had to refer to.

Luo Bingliang said with a smile: "If you don't say it, your father will say it, your mother will say it, and your servants will also say it, what kind of good place is Fusi Yamen when I was in Beizhen? Back then, the great talent Jie Jin, I threw it into the ice and snow in the winter, poured a bucket of water on it, and explained everything."

"And this earth torture, do you know how to do it? Shave people's hair clean, then smear people with honey, and bury them in the soil. The bugs in the soil bite people and itches. The key is the itching. Still can't scratch it."

"If you don't say anything, just scrape off the scalp and pour honey into it, and the ants will crawl around under the skin, tsk tsk."

Luo Bingliang was just trying to scare Gu Shaofang, and Beizhen Fusi's soil torture was to smear honey and bury it in the soil, then show his head and pry it open, neither the honey nor the ants could crawl in, he was just scaring people.

But anyone who has killed a chicken will know that what Luo Bingliang said is not realistic at all.

But Gu Shaofang has been studying since he was young, and the gentleman is far away from the kitchen. Gu Shaofang really has never killed a chicken, and there is a smell of urine. Luo Bingliang knows that Gu Shaofang has been frightened.

This is the fish head, knocking the head of this key person dizzy, and then start peeling off the scales.

Luo Bingliang's expression became greedy, and he said fiercely: "Let me ask you one last time, except for the 78 taels, which are for the imperial court. Where is this Tibetan silver? Brothers Tiqi will definitely ask for it when they go south." If you want to get some oil and water, tell me honestly, I can give you one or two preferential treatment, otherwise let me find out and give your whole family a earth torture!"

When Gu Shaofang heard this, he shuddered and said immediately: "There is still 11 taels of Tibetan silver in my uncle Chen Chuanshi's pigsty. He didn't even know that it was buried by my father before my uncle built the pigsty!"

Luo Bingliang is cheating. The 11 taels of silver hidden under the pigsty will be accounted for by Luo Bingliang and sent back to the court. Even if Lu Bing is the commander-in-chief, when the Jinyiwei is fierce, the Tiqi will not be unable to take the case. The money that should be taken, Ti Qi was separated from the emperor by a palace wall, and was subdued under the East Factory. If he took the money again, it would only decline further.

Luo Bingliang's son, Luo Sigong, is a holy family member, who in the world would dare to smoke the little emperor, leaving him with bruises one after another?

Zhang Juzheng, the master of the Great Ming Emperor, dared not raise his ruler to smack the little emperor!

Not only did Luo Sigong dare, but the little emperor has practiced martial arts for a year, and Luo Sigong has been doing it almost every day!
The reason why Luo Bingliang cheated like this was based on his rich case-handling skills. To do things for the court is to do errands, but to make money for himself must be done by all means. How much oil and water he fishes out is his own, so naturally put his heart into it.

One is to do errands, and the other is to make money for yourself.

When Gu Shaofang heard that Luo Bingliang had made money for him, he explained where the money went without saying a word.

Luo Bingliang nodded and said, "Today at noon, I will serve the Gu family delicious food and drinks. Set up a banquet, two taels standard, with a jug of wine. If you don't find any money..."

"Ha ha."

Luo Bingliang showed a cruel smile, which made Gu Shaofang tremble in fright.

Gu Shaofang was taken away, Zhang Cheng walked in, looked at Luo Bingliang, and after looking up and down, Zhang Cheng said with a lot of emotion: "[-] silver is for the brothers to buy wine and drink, but we didn't see it."

Luo Bingliang shook his head and said, "There will be no less money, and they will all go to Beijing. When you eunuchs were drawing points in Yuegang, why didn't you think of leaving some money?"

Zhang Cheng said with an inscrutable smile, "How do you know that our family didn't keep any money?"

"You don't dare, you take what you shouldn't, the ancestors can skin you and throw you into the well." Luo Bingliang said cheerfully.

Zhang Cheng was silent for a while and said, "What if our family shares the bill with Zhang Jin, Luo Gongchen and others?"

Luo Bingliang smiled even more and said: "Zhang Jin will give the silver to the ancestors when he goes back, and then peel your skin and throw it into the well. It's all right."

"Luo Qianhu really doesn't like oil and salt!" Zhang Cheng also laughed.

If Luo Bingliang took the 1 taels of silver, the credit for this errand would be canceled immediately. For the eunuchs in the palace, this could not be better news.

Luo Bingliang looked at Zhang Cheng and said, "Okay, Zhang Dadang, let's stop being sloppy here, we are both scared of wolves with a stick, and the eunuchs of the Qianqing Palace and the Supervisor of Ceremonies are fighting for the position of our ancestors. Si and Dongchang are also fighting for the power of investigation, and to put it bluntly, we are all fighting for the holy family."

"Ti Shuai wants to choose between me and Zhao Mengyou to recommend as Ti Shuai. Zhao Mengyou's son is also training with him in the palace, and Zhao Mengyou is still a martial arts scholar, so he has more advantages."

"Power or money is more important? They are both thousand-year-old foxes. There is no point in intrigue. The important thing is to do the errands assigned by His Majesty."

In the Ming Dynasty, where the system was designed around the imperial system, it was not a problem at all whether power was more important than money. Power was the most important thing.

"Qianhu thought, Gu Shaofang, did you spit it out?" Zhang Cheng no longer played tricks, everyone is an old fox on errands, add up, eight hundred minds, and read His Majesty's contradictory statement, there is no need to continue the vernacular, Be greedy for ink if you have the courage, as long as you are not afraid of Yuanfu and the emperor's punishment, you can take it boldly.

Luo Bingliang sneered and said, "No, it's just that a layer of fish scales has been removed, and the belly hasn't been disembowelled yet."

"A layer of fish scales has been removed, what kind of excuse is this?" Zhang Cheng asked in great surprise.

"The method passed down by Lu Tishuai, I can't tell you easily." Luo Bingliang treasured his broom and refused to share Lu Bing Lu Tishuai's way of eating fish back then. In fact, it is very simple. There is a layer of oil on the fish, which makes it slippery. Once you are a skater, you can hold it.

To put it more clearly, when handling a case, after knocking out the other party, he cheated and tried every means to get the other party to confess some problems.

This opens up the possibility of a further breakthrough, and the next step is to disembowel him.

Back then, Lu Bing was able to secure his position as the commander-in-chief, and he was able to step on Dongchang and let the eunuchs kowtow to him.

Soon, news came back that 11 taels of gold flower silver was seized, which was also a sum of stolen money.

Luo Bingliang began to disembowel him. Holding the newly recovered stolen money, Luo Bingliang was greedy and started to pursue further. He interrogated several people in detail, and dug out another 9 taels of silver without using severe punishment.

At this point, Zhang Cheng thought that Luo Bingliang had reached his limit, but in the end, Luo Bingliang opened Zhang Cheng's eyes and let Zhang Cheng know what it means to eat dry and wipe clean.

"Punishment." Luo Bingliang looked at Gu Shaofang who had been brought back again, and said to Ti Qi.

"I'm Juren, you can't punish me!" Gu Shaofang panicked immediately!His greatest confidence is that he is a juren, so he can be exempted from punishment, but Luo Bingliang has taken his money, and yet he still wants to use punishment!
Luo Bingliang said: "We are Tiqi, and Tiqi handles the case. You are a judge, but you can't be punished? What good things are you thinking about?"

"Let's start by burning to the stake, lift up the bronze tripod, and stuff our Gu Juren into it."

"Fire...fire...fire...punishment?" Gu Shaofang was startled, and he asked dully.

Luo Bingliang said quite intimately: "Throw you into the copper tripod, fill it with oil, then cover it and lock it tightly, then expose your head outside, and then start burning firewood. Come out and ask for the frying pan, Gu Juren, do you have anything else to ask? No, let's start."

"Qianhu, Qianhu, whatever you want to know, I'll tell you everything, I'll tell you everything!" Gu Shaofang was already frightened, what the hell is the punishment of the five poisons, Ti Qi is a group of human Shura, this is human Can you think of a trick?

Luo Bingliang still said very gently: "I want to know the number of armored crossbows in our Nanya. I don't know Gu Juren, can you provide some clues? It doesn't need to be too clear, I just want to know where the armored crossbows were shot and where the crossbows are located." By the way, let me know how many armored crossbows there are in each of our Nanya households."

Gu Shaofang hesitated. Instead of arguing loudly that he didn't know and begging Luo Bingliang to spare his life, he hesitated.

This hesitation made Luo Bingliang overjoyed, and he immediately stood up and said, "Bring up the copper tripod!"

"I said, I said! I said!" Gu Shaofang immediately chose to surrender. He had no choice but to surrender. If he did not surrender, he would be thrown into the frying pan.

Soon the Tiqis grasped important clues. This melon vine method was not Lu Tishuai's method, but the method of Ji Gang, the commander of Jin Yiwei during the Yongle period.

Jin Yiwei worked in the outer court and handled cases for more than 200 years. Like Xu, Shen, and Gu, they have a long history. Tiqi has accumulated a wealth of criminal experience. To deal with Gu Shaofang, it is really like pinching a field snail with three fingers and holding it in one hand.

Luo Bingliang got an important clue, and immediately began to send people around.

Zhang Cheng said in amazement: "Luo Qianhu is really amazing."

"Not as good as my son, he dared to hit His Majesty! I almost broke this Nizi's leg, this Nizi still only listens to His Majesty, just like me trying to kill him." When Luo Bingliang talked about his son Luo Sigong, it was a headache. Incomparable.

Thanks to Ti Shuai, who was afraid that the duel would be cut, so he brought protective gear for everyone, otherwise Luo Sigong would really kill the little emperor, even the eighteen generations of the Luo family would not be enough to kill.

But if you hit it with a protective gear, it will still hurt for several days.

"Where is the copper tripod?" Zhang Cheng asked about the trick of putting the oil pan on the copper tripod, and he also wanted to see something rare.

"If Gu Shaofang asked, I wouldn't be surprised. Zhang Dadang asked, but I don't understand." Luo Bingliang looked at Zhang Cheng with strange eyes.

When Zhang Cheng thought about it, he immediately understood, and said with emotion: "What Luo Qianhu taught is that you still have to study. If Gu Shaofang doesn't study, he doesn't understand."

"It's true that if you don't study much, you can't do a good job. Gu Shaofang didn't study much, so I was deceived." Luo Bingliang said in agreement.

There is no copper tripod at all, and there is no oil pan. Even the execution of the five poisons is a human design created by Beizhen Fusi. Not even a soldering iron.

Because contradiction exists among all things, so conflict and balance also exist among all things.

The Beizhen Fusi Yamen is opposite to the Liubu Yamen. Once the Tiqis torture the civil servants with fame and official status, they will be criticized by the officials. The officials can even force the emperor to be extremely passive. The Tiqis will handle the case. , should also be maintained within a certain range.

Ji Gang threw Xie Jin into the ice and snow back then, and a bucket of water froze to death. Ji Gang was also a death sentence later. If there is a conflict, there will be a struggle, and if there is a struggle, there will be a cycle forward. This is the most important point of view of the contradiction, and it is also the current status quo.

The Fusi of Beizhen usually does not impose punishment lightly, but it is enough. If Gu Shaofang does not confess, the Tiqis can handle the case properly. If they do not have this ability, how can they be worthy of Tiqi's 200 years of prestige?

Soon, a list of the number of armor and crossbows hidden by each household was sent to Yingtian Mansion.

Song Yangshan, the governor of Yingtian, once again issued a notice, asking all households not to take chances. The imperial court has actually grasped the number of armor and crossbows in their hands. If there is a chance, the Gu family will end!
The armor of Ming Dynasty, take "Ji Xiao Xinshu" as an example, mainly cotton armor as an example, cotton armor is also divided into three, six, and nine grades, the lowest grade is made of cloth to sew cotton like a jacket, only the upper body cotton armor is seven The catty is heavy, the rain is not heavy, the mold is not rotten, and the bird gun cannot be seriously injured.

The anti-armor mentioned in Ji Xiao's new book is this cheap cotton armor that can protect against arrows and lead.

The medium cotton armor is covered with cotton armor outside the armor, and a thick cotton cap is worn outside the helmet.

The heavy armor is cotton-iron composite armor, also known as cloth-faced iron armor. After the two layers of cotton cloth wrap the iron armor and sew them together, the inside and outside are fixed with copper nails (nail bubbles). This is heavy armor.

This kind of heavy armor is strictly prohibited by the court, as long as the source of the Gu family can be found out, and then the number of armor on the ground in Nanya can be found out.

According to Tiqi's inspection, there are two main types of armor outflows.

The first type is the outflow of military weapons from the imperial court. These armors are all imperial armors, but they have been leaked out through various methods, such as fire dragons burning warehouses, such as five ghosts carrying them; the second type is private manufacturing. It is difficult to find the workshop, but with the clues provided by Gu Shaofang, it is easy.

Xu Jie finally came to Nanya, and handed over a card to see Song Yangshan. Song Yangshan met Xu Jie in his private house.

"Long time no see, Grand Master Xu is still handsome." Song Yangshan made a salute first and met Xu Jie.

Song Yangshan, Song Yiwang, and Xu Jie came from the same sect, they are both direct disciples of Wang Yangming's disciple Nie Bao, and they are brothers of the same sect.

"Master and younger students are divided." Xu Jie looked at Song Yangshan with mixed emotions. He thought that Song Yangshan, as the governor of Yingtian, could treat his Xu family well, but it turned out that Song Yangshan was not good at all, and he didn't show affection at all.

As far as Xu Jie received the news, if Zhang Juzheng hadn't repeatedly written to Song Yangshan to tell him not to brag too hastily, in the sixth year of Longqing, Song Yangshan would have to investigate the occupation and return of the land, and he might have taken his brother as a knife.

"No matter how close your personal relationship is, how you call me in private, since you are here for business, please address me as governor, sit down." Song Yangshan did not answer the words of his junior, but stated the rules.

When working, it is called a job.

Xu Jie said quite earnestly: "Junior brother, you are, are you making up your mind to go to the dark with Zhang Juzheng? If Zhang Juzheng falls, you will be ruined when the time comes, so you should be more sober."

"He can't even protect himself, can he protect you? I know, Yuanfu gave the order, you have to obey, and I can't make it difficult for you."

"What does Zhang Juzheng want? Doesn't he just want money? Or is it the tax for the [-] hectares of land? I can convince the gentry on the ground in Nanya that the tax of the [-] hectares of land can be paid."

Song Yangshan was not happy when he heard it, he shook his head and said: "The sign of cloth thread, the sign of corn, and the sign of hard labor have existed since ancient times."

"Master Xu, did the Japanese gentry pacify the Japanese plague in Nanya, Zhejiang, Fujian, and Guangdong? If so, what the court did was unethical, but it was clearly the court's hard work to quell the Japanese plague and restore the world's peace. How can you hear too much?" Teacher means, should this gift be accepted?"

"Now let's return the armored crossbows. If you don't hand them over, the house will be ransacked. I have a list in my hand. The Xu family has more than [-] sets of armored crossbows and three hundred crossbows. I thought Grand Master Xu came to hand over the armored crossbows."

Song Yangshan's words are a bit impolite, the imperial court does not need to pay taxes to raise soldiers?
The gentleman just sweeps the snow in front of the door, but also takes the opportunity to drink human blood. The world finally regained some vitality under the auspices of the imperial court.

The imperial court has no taxes, how can the world be safe, the soldiers are fierce and the war is in danger, and the whole world suffers from it.

"Song Yangshan, don't forget about the matter of Hu Zongxian back then!"

"Zhang Juzheng is now rectifying Hu Zongxian's name and giving him a posthumous title. If he punishes me now, he will punish you tomorrow. He doesn't even care about me as a teacher. How can he respect you as an uncle? He wants to deal with bribery. The evil of appeasement starts from me, and you will be next!" Seeing that the discussion failed, Xu Jie's tone changed immediately, and he talked about the past.

Song Yangshan impeached Hu Zongxian in Jiajing 41, and Hu Zongxian stepped down.

Hu Zongxian was imprisoned again in the 44th year of Jiajing because of a handwritten letter written by Hu Zongxian, falsely preaching the imperial decree.

And this forged imperial edict was the perjury made by Song Yangshan.

Xu Jie saw that Song Yangshan's complexion changed drastically, and knew that Song Yangshan was beginning to struggle.

Xu Jie's expression changed from ferocious to gentle, and he said earnestly: "Now Zhang Juzheng, Wang Daokun, and Shen Yiguan, I see that you are able to preside over the investigation and handling of the embezzlement. They rely on you. After you finish, they will settle the old score for you immediately." !"

"Our brothers and sisters come from the same sect, so why bother to kill each other? Why don't we discuss it with the court, the court asks for taxes, so we should just pay them?"

Song Yangshan struggled. He clenched his fists and looked at Xu Jie. If Xu Jie took out the forged imperial edict, then Hu Zongxian's case would not be an unjust case, but a typical case of persecution.

When the time comes, will Song Yangshan be alive?
Song Yangshan was also involved in the forgery of the imperial decree and the unjust death of Hu Zongxian!

"Don't even think about it. In this case, Zhang Juzheng can't protect you. Even the officials of the world can eat you up. You have no way to turn back. What are you doing now?" Xu Jie persuaded again, his tone even more serious He said gently: "The imperial court wants taxes, we will pay them, don't bother."

 Ask for a monthly ticket, woo! ! !It might be there tonight, it might not be, I'm trying to have it.
