Gu Ming has come here to seem to be to clear up the involvement, and the responsibility of the three prefects to advise the court and change the salt policy to the government is all attributed to Fu Zhiyuan, so as to avoid being ,.。 by King Lu

But his purpose is not only to get rid of the involvement, but also to have other calculations in his heart.

And when Ma Yu heard Lin Yanchao's name, her heart went up and down.

In the palace, Ma Yu has always clearly understood a truth, who can provoke himself, who can't provoke himself.

He dared to take bribes in Kaifeng, and he didn't even pay attention to Henan officials, because he knew that these officials couldn't do anything to him.

This is provoked.

Looking at the world, Ma Yu only needs to look at the faces of the three people, one day, the second queen mother, and the third king of Lu, only these three people he Ma Yu can't afford to provoke, and the rest of the people, he is not targeting anyone, they are all spicy chickens in the eyes of Ma Gonggong.

But why is Ma Yu jealous of Lin Yanchao, because Lin Yanchao can, and at the same time offended the Son of Heaven, the Queen Mother, and King Lu, the three people he feared the most, he was still alive and unharmed.

On this point, Ma Gonggong can't do it.

Ma Yu clearly remembered that after Lin Yanchao wrote the book, there was a person waiting outside Cining Palace, but he saw the Queen Mother trembling with anger, and King Lu knelt in front of him and cried bitterly.

The Queen Mother, the person whom King Lu hates so much, but he can't do anything about Lin Yanchao.

Such a person is actually an official in Henan, so he asks you if you are afraid.

However, Ma Yu thought about it, he was afraid of Lin Yanchao, but the civil officials were not afraid, for example, this prefect of Kaifeng Mansion was like a grandson in front of him, but he was his official in front of Lin Yanchao.

A Tongzhi is probably a five-grade official, and there are not a few officials in the entire Henan Province who are above him.

Last time, because of Lin Yanchao, the cost of King Lu's wedding was reduced from six million taels to two million taels. If Lin Yanchao continues to oppose King Lu's vassal in Henan this time, by the way, he must add the prefect Fu Zhiyuan, then he must rely on these civil officials to deal with these two.

At the beginning, the Queen Mother, the reason why King Lu was defeated in the hands of Lin Yanchao was because he did not unite the civil officials and believed in Zhang Siwei, a villain.

Ma Yu had a lot of drama in his heart, and he turned countless thoughts in an instant, and at this moment he had the idea of joining Wu to fight Cao.

Gu Ming had already seen that Ma Yu had been holding his face, and suddenly relaxed. This person actually has such an amiable expression.

But seeing Ma Yu said gently: "It turned out to be Lin Sanyuan, our family has heard a little about it in the palace, I don't know how he is an official in Henan?" ”

Gu Ming had already wiped the tea stains on his official robe, and then said, "Sima Lin...... Hanlin was born, and he was an official on the day of the Son of Heaven, and his heart was definitely high, but it was inevitable that he would be overjoyed. ”

"How do you rejoice?"

Gu Ming had already seen Ma Yu in the trap, and sighed: "It's not a secret, Lin Sima ignored the emptiness of the treasury and forcibly repaired the embankment for hundreds of miles, in order to collect money and benefit the people, he forcibly sold the silt fields next to the embankment to the squires and the people to make up for the shortfall." ”

"Originally, the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, but the local officials in Henan have long complained, and the last time the official asked about it, Lin Sima actually ...... ......"

Thinking of Lin Yanchao's words that day, 'If the money and food in Kaifeng Mansion are enough, he can take a hand', Gu Ming was like swallowing a big stone in his throat, and he couldn't swallow this stone to this day.

Ma Yu said: "What's wrong with this? As long as he Lin Sanyuan does not delay the payment of taxes, it will be fine. ”

Gu Ming has explained: "My father-in-law does not know that since ancient times, officials have built water conservancy projects for the benefit of the people, but they can only induce the people to do it, but they cannot collect money. ”

"We still don't know what's wrong." Ma Yu was still in a fog.

Gu Ming had already seen that Ma Yu still couldn't comprehend, so he patiently explained: "If Lin Yanchao does this, other officials will follow suit, and officials from all over the country will sell it to the people in the name of building water conservancy. In the future, whoever is willing to build embankments and dams for the people will do things for profit. ”

"Take a step back and say, Lin Yanchao really has no selfishness at all when he repairs embankments and builds silt fields for the common people?"

Ma Yu's eyes lit up and asked, "You mean?" ”

Gu Ming nodded and said, "Yes, this official knows that there must be something strange about this matter, so he sent his henchmen to Guide Mansion to spy on them." After enclosing the fields by the embankment, there are nearly 1,000 hectares of silt fields by the river. But in the end, Lin Yanchao sold more than 350 hectares of silt land to the common people, even if you add 100 hectares of official land, it is less than half of it. ”

When Ma Yu heard this, he couldn't help but be sexual, and scolded after slapping the case: "Despicable and shameless! Big corrupt officials! ”

Cough!

Gu Ming couldn't stop coughing when he heard this.

If you try to translate Gu Mingji's cough, it can be understood that the you pull is not stinky, and you still have the face to scold other people's big corrupt officials. Who was bribed by the salt merchant in Kaifeng Mansion to mark the price?

Ma Yu was still very indignant: "It's a shame that Lin Yanchao keeps asking for the people's life, but he actually says one thing and does another, if the Son of Heaven knows, see how he Lin Yanchao behaves." ”

Ma Yu thought to himself that Lin Yanchao was appreciated by the Son of Heaven for his integrity, if the Son of Heaven knew that Lin Yanchao said one thing and did another, he really had the heart to kill him a hundred times.

Gu Ming has said: "That's right. And the official felt that Fu Zhiyuan was far away from this matter, and it was impossible not to know that most of these two people were in cahoots. ”

Ma Yu asked in his heart: "You can be sure of this matter, if you can bring down Lin Yanchao." After the Queen Mother and King Lu found out...... Gu Futai, your future future is limitless. ”

Gu Ming had already shown a look of surprise when he heard this, shook his head and said: "No, no, Lin Sima is the proud protégé of Shoufu, if he is knocked down, it will not look good on Shoufu's face." ”

Ma Yu sneered and said: "Five hundred hectares of silt fields, at least worth more than 100,000 taels, once this matter is broken, Mr. Shen will not be able to protect him." People can't step on two boats, Queen Mother, King Lu is still the first assistant, you have to make a trade-off. ”

Gu Ming was already embarrassed: "It's better to let the official go back and think about it." ”

Ma Yu also took it back and said, "It's okay." ”

Both of them left room and didn't want to be too proactive at this point.

Gu Ming had already said goodbye and left, and when he got on the sedan chair, he instructed the people on the side: "You go to Shandong." ”

"Master, what are you asking the villain to do in Shandong?"

Gu Ming has already said: "You go to the Yamen of Shandong River, and when you see Lord Li, the governor of the river, tell him that what he told the master that I have done has been done." ”

When the man heard this, he immediately said yes.

After Gu Ming got into the sedan chair, he smiled and closed his eyes at the moment.

And Ma Yu was also very happy to have Lin Yanchao's handle in his hand, and when he was pondering, he saw a sound behind the screen.

Ma Yu patted his forehead and thought, miscalculated, such a confidential matter was actually heard by several of his godsons.

"Get out of here!"

Listening to Ma Yu's shout, several godsons came out with the guys, nodded and said one by one: "Godfather." ”

Ma Yu thought to himself, since they heard it, they would discuss it, so he said: "Since you have all heard it, have you paid any attention?" ”

A godson said: "Godfather, although this Lin Yanchao has sinned against King Lu, the Queen Mother, but we came to Kaifeng just to ask for money, and we can't make a big deal about it, we have this handle in our hands, if Lin Yanchao knows each other, this matter is also over, if you don't know each other and take it out, dismiss his official." ”

Ma Yuxin said, if it was planned to be like this before, it would be fine, but now it has been listened to by a few of you, in case someone is not strict in the future, the Queen Mother will know.

The Queen Mother will definitely blame me, why didn't she pursue this matter and take Lin Yanchao down to repay the hatred in her heart.

Ma Yu immediately straightened his face and said: "How can this be, your godfather and I are the queen mother's hand-picked, this Lin Yanchao insulted the queen mother, King Lu, is to insult your godfather's father and mother." How can such a great vengeance not be avenged? ”

When the retinue heard this, they said yes again and again.

The next day, Ma Yu sent his subordinates to survey the fields in various prefectures.

You must know that King Lu asked the Son of Heaven for a total of 15,000 hectares of food fields, all of which are in Henan.

When Henan was founded, there were 1.5 million hectares of land, but now it is less than 500,000 hectares.

Now that King Lu is in vassal, he will take another 15,000 hectares. This 15,000 hectares cannot be produced by one government or one county, so it naturally has to be spread over the heads of each prefecture.

And King Lu's farmland must not be inferior fields, it must be fertile fields. So Ma Yu sent his entourage to various prefectures and counties to survey the fields.

Every prefecture in Henan sent a eunuch with a dozen retinues from Beijing, and these minions arrived at the place, and at the moment they were virtuous with their masters, and took the opportunity to search for money everywhere.

They first recruited a group of shabby households, scoundrels and the like in the local area, and asked them about the big families in their own government.

Then let these scoundrels be the vanguard, and they will follow. A large group of people went to the manors of these big families, thinking that King Lu was inspecting the domain or purchasing for King Lu, and forcibly broke in.

If there is resistance, they will be beaten by others and then tied up.

But whoever sees a treasure will take it, and if there is a beautiful woman, he will also take it.

The people angrily sued the officials, but the officials did not dare to accept it, so they could only negotiate with them. These people also casually return some unwanted things, as well as the women of good families after the ruin.

Many women committed suicide after being humiliated, and there are many families in the whole of Henan, and the people are ruined.

And the officials did not dare to speak out, so they could only play the province vigorously. In this way, these arrogances are even more arrogant.

Ma Yu's people will never let go of Guide Mansion. When they went, Ma Yu told them to show an attitude, as many nonsense as they could, anyway, they would definitely cause public resentment to boil and turn the entire Guide Mansion over.

After these people got the order, they arrived at Guide Mansion, and these people gathered hundreds of people, and they were ordered by Ma Yu to do a big job.

They first chose a large silk household in their own mansion, and immediately broke down the door and looted it.

They took all the men in the house and scavenged for money and women.

Just as they were looting, Fu Zhiyuan arrived with a large group of officers and soldiers, and took down all these people without saying a word. After that, these people were arrested and taken to the government office, first beaten with a board, and then pulled the flail in front of the door of the government to show the public, and finally put them in the government prison.

These people can be described as really miserable, I thought that they could be like people who went to other provinces, both robbing money and ruining the women of good families, but before their skills were developed, they were all taken down by Fu Zhiyuan, and all the crimes were nipped in the bud.

Moreover, Fu Zhiyuan also waited for a lot of punishment, and died in prison after a tooth grabbing and being tortured on the same day.

A few days later, another one died.

The rest of the people were all wounded, and it was a miserable one.

The remaining few fish escaped back to Kaifeng, and when they saw Ma Yu, they knelt down and cried, saying that they were godfathers, and the children would almost never see you.

Ma Yu was surprised and delighted after learning about what Fu Zhiyuan had done.

What was surprising was that Fu Zhiyuan didn't give him Ma Yu face like this, and his courage was really too fat. Happily, I finally found the truth.

So Ma Yu complained to the governor Yang Yikui, saying that these scoundrels were all from the Lu Wangfu.

Fu Zhiyuan dared to take them down and killed two of them. Ma Yu asked Yang Yikui to pay Zhiyuan for the crime of 'deceiving the relatives, intimidating the government officials, and disregarding people's lives', otherwise he would not give up.

Yang Yikui warmly received Ma Yu and told him that he would definitely do it and asked him to come to him the next day. As a result, the next day, when Ma Yu arrived at the governor's yamen, he was told that the governor was sick, and he was so sick that he couldn't see anyone.

Ma Yu ate a closed door, and immediately became furious and ordered the post station to hurry up with 800 miles, report the matter to the Son of Heaven, and by the way, he also sued the governor Yang Yikui.

In the capital, before Fu Zhiyuan wrote a letter, he returned to the salt administration of the German Mansion and protested to King Lu.

Wu Qingbo was furious when he learned about this. The last time the officials were impeached, although Wu Qingbo almost won the title. But Wu Qingbo still stood firm after all, he has been in the court for many years, the former first assistant Zhang Siwei, and the former official Shangshu Wang Guoguang were all pulled up by him.

Although he has lost his position now, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and he still has a lot of power in the court.

Wu Qingbo immediately instructed the imperial historian to play, saying that Fu Zhiyuan's move not only disregarded the holy order and saw no vassal king, but also deliberately obstructed King Lu from becoming a vassal in Henan.

But regarding Wu Qingbo's impeachment of Fu Zhiyuan, the attitude of the Son of Heaven was to stay in the middle and not send it.

But a few days later, Ma Yu's impeachment of Fu Zhiyuan came again.

The Son of Heaven immediately issued an edict to reprimand Yang Yikui, the governor of Henan, and the holy decree said, I entrusted King Lu to you about the affairs of Henan, and this is how you did it for me?

After the holy decree, Yang Yikui was scolded and bloody, and Ma Yu was overjoyed, and the Son of Heaven still thought about King Lu in his heart, after all, he was a brother.

After Yang Yikui was reprimanded, he immediately ordered the flag officer to rush to Guide with the royal flag, took Fu Zhiyuan and escorted him to Kaifeng, and questioned all the people who injured and killed the royal government officials.

On this day, he returned to the front of the Yamen of the German Mansion.

The lead clouds hung down like ink, the sky was gloomy, and the cold wind was howling.

The weather in November is freezing cold.

And the pacesetters of the governor's yamen will be surrounded by the front and back of the government of the German government.

Swords, guns, swords, and halberds are lined up, and teams of firearms are lined up all around.

Near the government office, countless people from Guide surrounded the road and blocked it.

The people came from all directions to help the old and the young, the young and round eyes were angry, and they were indignant, and the old and weak women and children hid their faces and wept.

The people's grievances are like a raging fire, boiling and burning!

Where is justice?
