Chapter 169 Begging for Mercy and Adding Jin Yiwei

"It's not that this kind of thing hasn't happened before. After the payment of food in Xiaomiao Temple was changed to the opening of payment of silver, Bian Bei was so bad that he couldn't change it even if he wanted to go back!"

"Because once the cultivated land has been abandoned for many years, it is very difficult to restore it, and the same is true for water conservancy."

"It is difficult to move back once the village households are lost."

"As a result, the merchants have become bigger in the south, and because these merchants have already been officials and gentry, they can recover even more."

After Wang Guoguang said it, he explained it with examples.

"Everything in the world is unpredictable."

"If the Son of Heaven really wants to abolish his martial arts, what can we do?"

"You Guan, don't think too far! If the Son of Heaven uses you and me, you and I will do the king's work. If you don't use me, then you will keep your own place."

Fang Fengshi followed suit, and said, "Let's obey the laws of heaven! In fact, if it weren't for Jiangling, the Duke would not have joined the cabinet, and I'm afraid that it would be difficult for me to be named the Taibao."

"I'm afraid it's not the kindness of his uncle!"

"Uncle is also from Qingliu, how can you and I have such an honor so easily?"

Wang Guoguang laughed.

"Even if it wasn't his intention, at least he didn't stop it."

Fang Fengshi said again.

"Yes, the servant should be content."

"When he becomes the state in Puzhou, I will resign."

Wang Guoguang smiled back.

……

"Yuanfu, now the edict to strengthen the emperor's soldiers and horses has finally been issued; therefore, the matter of officials and gentry paying food and errands together has a lot to do. It is really a gratifying thing to celebrate!"

For Zhang Siwei, after Wang Guoguang struck up a conversation with Zhang Juzheng, and when Zhang Juzheng came to get off the sedan chair to go to the cabinet, he was busy talking to Zhang Juzheng. Show your face.

However, Zhang Juzheng ignored Zhang Siwei.

Because, at this moment, Zhang Juzheng saw Xie Jie, who had been ordered to be promoted to the prefect of Dongfan Island, kneeling here.

Seeing Zhang Juzheng appearing, Xie Jie quickly kowtowed to the ground: "Please Yuanfu raise your hand high!"

Zhang Juzheng didn't say much, but said to Zhang Siwei: "Ziwei, please persuade me, the original copy sent by the servant and Hedao must be drafted in time."

"Yes!"

"Yuanfu, don't worry, the subordinates will persuade him well."

After Zhang Siwei respectfully said to Zhang Juzheng, he turned and looked at Xie Jie: "Master Xie, what are you talking about! What do you mean by asking Yuanfu to raise your hand and let you be promoted to the magistrate because you are loyal and courageous, so That’s why I’m giving you a chance to practice.”

"In less than three to five years, you will be able to seal off one side of the border, and even become a public minister, and you will be glorious from then on!"

"What's wrong?"

"This is your chance!"

"Not only are you not grateful, but you actually say something that is a noble hand. If you don't know, you may think that Yuanfu has entrapped you!"

Zhang Siwei continued to speak, and then suddenly yelled at Xie Jie: "You don't have to leave here quickly! Otherwise, I will be the first to reveal the secret, to see if you have hidden schemes, murdered ministers, and if you want to mess with the court, please ask the imperial decree." Let Jin Yiwei take you, punish you for a crime of deceiving the emperor, and kill you!"

After hearing this, Xie Jie looked up at Zhang Siwei, and asked, "Is this what Mr. Ge meant, or what Yuan Fu meant?"

"Of course it's what I want!"

Zhang Siwei said something.

After hearing this, Xie Jie asked, "Why is Mr. Ge so vicious?"

"You resisted the decree and did not obey it. You are persecuting Yuanfu here. His heart is more vicious than anyone else. You actually said that this servant is vicious, and Kueifu still kindly persuaded you to leave."

"In short, if you don't leave, for the sake of Yuanfu, Pu Ning will bear this vicious name, and I will ask the imperial decree to punish you!"

"Otherwise, the servant will resign first and leave, and will not be listed with you!"

Zhang Siwei peeked at Zhang Juzheng who had returned to Wenyuan Pavilion, and spoke louder.

"Is elder Ge the running dog of the Zhang family, or a servant of the Zhu family? Why is there only barking here?!"

Xie Jie questioned Zhang Siwei in frustration, then got up angrily and left the cabinet.

After Xie Jie left the cabinet, as soon as he left the Donghua Gate, an eunuch waited here, and said to Xie Jie: "There is an order, and Xie Fu Yin will accept the order."

Xie Jie hastily accepted the written order.

But after Xie Jie opened the handbook to read, he burst into tears immediately, and then knelt down in front of the eunuch: "Please rest assured, your majesty, I will either be buried in the belly of a fish or exposed to an isolated island, or the imperial wind will spread to the whole island. The barbarians are all proficient in Chinese, woo woo!"

"Brother Hanfu!"

At this moment, Gu Xiancheng and Wei Yunzhong walked over and raised their hands towards Xie Jie.

Wei Yunzhong first persuaded: "Brother Hanfu, please don't be too sad. The power of the sky is unpredictable. I thought it was nothing more than exile by the imperial staff. Who would have thought that Jiangling would be so hateful, but he would use this method. It is clearly a light punishment, but in fact it is to let the public die!"

"Yes, this is indeed unexpected."

Gu Xiancheng said.

Xie Jie also shed tears and said: "Yes, who would have thought that at most, he would be temporarily out of official career, and he would be re-appointed by the emperor in the future, but who knows, it will be a step that is really unpredictable."

As he said that, Xie Jie asked Gu Xiancheng: "What about Xiuwu, why didn't he come?"

Gu Xiancheng said with a sneer: "He is sick and cannot come, please ask me to bring you a message, the way of heaven will not let a loyal and upright person die in a foreign land."

Xie Jie laughed after hearing this.

Wei Yunzhong sighed at this moment: "Although I know that it is useless for Hanfu to refute the imperial edict, and it is impossible to stop Jiangling making the emperor's soldiers strong and horses strong; but at this moment, I am still a little disappointed, and I don't know what we are doing. Useful or not."

"Nature is useful!"

Gu Xiancheng replied at this time, and said: "Ning Ming dies, but does not live silently!"

"We just want Jiang Ling to know that not everyone supports him in doing this."

"And he should also understand that although Brother Hanfu is the only one who refuted the edict, behind this, it is not only Brother Hanfu who wants to refute this matter? It is the majority of virtuous gentlemen in the entire Shilin! He Jiangling Know the consequences of doing so!"

"Yes, as Uncle Shi said, I decided to refute this edict because of this, but I didn't expect it to come to this point."

Xie Jie started talking at this time, and after speaking, he took out the emperor Zhu Yijun's handwriting, and said: "However, the emperor gave me a handwriting, asking me to go to Dongfan Island to practice."

"Is this unbearable or a posturing?"

"In other words, Hanfu was sent to Dongfan, is it the emperor's original intention, or Jiangling's intention?"

Wei Yunzhong was taken aback after hearing this, and asked.

Xie Jie said: "No matter what it is, we have to understand that the emperor can't bear it, and we have to put this matter on Jiang Ling's head."

"That's right! If Jiangling doesn't fall, if the Zhang Party doesn't get rid of, it won't work even if you get a new emperor."

"If there is no Zhang Dang, even if the emperor is as smart as a temple in the world, there is no need to be afraid."

Gu Xiancheng nodded at this moment and said in a low voice.

Wei Yunzhong nodded.

Here, Xie Jie bowed his hands to Wei Yunzhong and Gu Xiancheng: "Anyway, please ask Er Gong to speak for my younger brother in the future, so that I can come back as soon as possible, even if I am just dismissed and go back to the mainland, that would be good."

"Don't worry, definitely."

The two nodded their heads back.

But Gu Xiancheng and Wei Yunzhong never spoke up for Xie Jie.

"To the Emperor, this is the report submitted by Jin Yiwei about Xie Jie's performance after receiving the order today, as well as the performance of the civil servants who came into contact with him."

Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Yijun was reading at night, Zhang Jing came and handed a memorial to Zhu Yijun.

Zhu Yijun took it, and after looking at it, he laughed and said in his heart, "They all look loyal!"

"It's just that I'm afraid I can't wait to get rid of Zhang Dang. If I'm not honest and obedient, let myself fall into the water?"

"I don't let myself fall into the water now, maybe it's just because I fell into the water. As long as the Zhang Party still exists, it can change to another emperor and continue to be in power. It can also use this to prosper the prison and further attack dissidents."

"What is the Xu family doing recently?"

After Zhu Yijun thought so, he asked.

Zhang Jing hurriedly replied: "Xu Ying has arrived in Guide!"

"Xu Jie must have known that it has been decided that officials and gentry will pay food and errands together."

"In addition, according to Songjiang's Jinyi Guardian, Xu's cotton fields have had a bumper harvest this year, and half of Songjiang's cotton cloth industry has been owned by him. However, the export profits of Songjiang's cotton cloth are still high, and the cotton produced by Xu's cotton fields is still not enough for its trade needs. , but the price of Songjiang fields is getting higher and higher, making it difficult to purchase new fields.”

After Zhu Yijun heard this, he ordered: "Let Jin Yiwei send more people in Songjiang Mansion to keep an eye on the Xu family, including the local wealthy businessmen!"

Zhang Jing bowed his hands and said yes.

And Zhu Yijun said to himself at this time: "I hope there will be no too serious phenomenon of eating people!"

Then, Zhu Yijun instructed Zhang Jing: "Let those orphans who graduated from Xingming Academy and are able to calculate statistics and are assigned to Jinyiwei, first investigate how many landless refugees and hired workers there are in various places. Clearly, the current scale of employment in various cities and towns in various places, as well as the annual employment accidents."
