Li Rusong continued: "Father, I think it's better to kill them."
Li Chengliang glared at him, "Say one more thing?"
"Father let me know!"
Li Rusong hurriedly cupped his hands, and then said: "Having a half-hearted mind is not the way to be prudent as a minister!"
"How dare you contradict me!"
Li Chengliang couldn't help raising his hand again.
Li Rusong did not dodge.
However, Li Chengliang didn't fight in the end, and just withdrew his hand: "Forget it, just be like your mother!"
Immediately, Li Chengliang couldn't help but say more: "But you have to remember, I asked famous scholars in the south of the Yangtze River to teach you the principles of sages, and I didn't really ask you to act according to the principles of sages!"
After speaking, Li Chengliang handed over a list to Li Rusong: "Since you love killing people so much, kill them all and leave no one behind."
"Mr. Lan Yang, Mr. Qing He..."
"Father, these are all Jiangnan celebrities you have treated with courtesy!"
"Kill them all?"
Li Rusong asked after looking at the list.
Li Chengliang glared at Li Rusong: "You have cut off the Li family's back, and why do you keep these big families in the Guan who intend to use our Li family to help Jianzhou grow up? It's so that they can get hold of my Li family. Are you going to threaten my Li family to directly oppose the court?!"
"Kill them all!"
"Not a single one!"
"Including the domestic slave craftsmen bought by Li Ruyu, they may also be the secret work of the big clans in the Guan! Since the nobles of Jianzhou Zuowei were killed by you, there is no need for them to exist!"
Li Chengliang said with cruel eyes.
Li Rusong looked excited, and said: "Yes! It turns out that my father already knew that Li Rushen and the others were secretly wooing power."
Li Chengliang sneered.
Immediately, Li Chengliang only sighed, and walked over to Li Ruzhi's body: "Ruzhi, it's also because of your bad luck that you met such a gentleman! I really planned to let you do it after you come out of the country. The new Jianzhou Zuowei Commander!"
Li Ruzhi's family had previously defected to Jianzhou Youwei Wang Gao to fight against the Ming court, but because Li Chengliang was captured when he exterminated Wang Gao in the second year of Wanli, they became Li Chengliang's slaves.
Therefore, Li Chengliang called Li Rusong "uncle" in front of his corpse at this time, because Li Rusong is indeed Li Rusong's eldest son, the so-called "uncle".
As he said that, Li Chengliang suddenly remembered Li Rusong's words that he killed Li Rusong to show his loyalty to the court. He couldn't help but frowned for a while, and hurriedly shouted to Li Rusong who hadn't gone far: "Come back!"
Li Rusong walked back: "Father, what else do you want?"
Li Chengliang said: "From now on, you are not allowed to be a pioneer! You can only sit in the rear!"
"what?!"
Li Rusong was quite surprised and frowned slightly.
Li Chengliang said to Yang Huan again: "From now on, the uncle will double the personal protection of the servants! The monthly payment will also be doubled! And every meal must have a poison tester, and before and after the march, there must be a confidant who can block the arrows and firearms."
Yang Huan clapped his hands and said yes.
Li Chengliang looked at Li Rusong: "I will write a letter to Duke Ji, begging him to let you worship under him, and learn from him to arrange troops. Now you have the strategy taught by Xu Wenchang, but how to command the infantry to attack from the rear?" , it's still a little bit hot."
"My father told me to study, but the child dared not say anything."
"Don't let me do vanguard slashing, isn't that making me practice riding and shooting for nothing?"
Li Rusong asked unwillingly.
"Nothing but!"
"Didn't you want the Li family to be loyal ministers? Then you can't let yourself be killed easily!"
Li Chengliang said to Yang Huan again: "Order the documents in the mansion to write memorials in my name, and ask the imperial court to rectify the business and trade in Liaodong, such as Datong and other towns, open border trade to barbarians, and set up customs to collect taxes to increase them. Commercial taxes make up for the lack of military supplies in the Liao region."
"In addition, tell the court about the profitability of my Li family's business in Liaodong."
"Let His Majesty know that the money of my Li family is his money. He can take as much as he wants, and the rest will be rewarded to us. Let the imperial court know that we Li Home is also supportive and proactive.”
Li Rusong was stunned for a moment, then bowed deeply to his father, and then said to the officials around him: "Go, follow me to kill people!"
Soon.
The literati and poets taken in by Li Chengliang's mansion and the domestic slave craftsmen who were secretly bought by Li Ruyu but were actually known by Li Chengliang were all cut off.
"Ning Yuanhou, aren't you afraid that the southern gentry will retaliate against you in the future?!"
"You Li family bastards! You will die a terrible death if you cut yourself off from scholarly circles!"
for a while.
The literati in Li's mansion screamed and cursed incessantly.
Here, Li Chengliang had no choice but to give up the Jianzhou Youwei, who was captured by Li Ruyu, with more than [-] barbarians, and let Zha Da, a general from another family of his own, receive the two thousand barbarians and was ordered to go to Yunnan to conquer Burma.
Zha Dashou is naturally willing, because it means that he has the opportunity to rely on these more than 2000 Jurchen barbarians to make contributions.
A few days later, Jin Yiwei came to Liaodong and announced his intention to arrest Li Rubin, and thus learned that Li Rubin committed suicide in fear of crime.
……
And Zhu Yijun had already known all this through Li Rusong's secret decree, and even knew about Li Ruzhi's murder.
"Nurhachi?"
However, in Li Rusong's secret memorial, he had already revealed Li Rushen's real identity, so Zhu Yijun, who was not very clear about the situation before Nurhachi's rebellion against the Ming Dynasty, finally met "Nurhachi" for the first time in Li Rusong's secret memorial. Hachi" name.
At the same time, through Li Rusong's secret melody, Zhu Yijun also learned that Li Rushen's family, whose real name was Nurhachi, had been bloodbathed by Li Rusong.
This made Zhu Yijun couldn't help laughing: "Li Rusong, I really like him more and more!"
"According to Ningyuanhou's report, it turned out that in the [-]th year of Wanli's reign, Li Ruyu, the Zuowei of Jianzhou, deliberately betrayed the dynasty, and because of this, he wooed the generals and craftsmen, such as because he heard that the tea merchant named Fang Bencheng was a Zhusheng, and he was born as a craftsman. , good at making firecrackers, he insisted on chasing after three stops to buy this tea merchant, and introduced him as a tea supplier in the Ningyuanhou's mansion, and let him privately make thirty firecrackers. Therefore, after Ningyuanhou discovered that Li Ruyu had a different ambition Resolutely deal with his family."
"In addition, the Marquis of Ningyuan said that Li Rubin committed suicide in fear of crime, and asked the court to investigate him for lax supervision."
"The Marquis of Ningyuan, please open border trade in Liaodong, set up customs to collect taxes, and present his family's business and trade in Liaodong."
Shortly after.
Zhu Yijun also received Li Chengliang's secret memorial about the execution of Li Ruyi and other Jianzhou Zuowei nobles and Li Rubin, and the invitation to open border trade in Liaodong, and set up customs in Liaodong to collect taxes, and also listed the business situation of the Li family in Liaodong.
This made Zhu Yijun even happier.
Because this means that Li Chengliang has taken the killing of Li Ruyu and other Jianzhou Zuowei nobles on his own shoulders, and is still showing his loyalty to the emperor, so loyal that he is willing to give up the commercial interests of the entire Liaodong for the benefit of the country.
Zhu Yijun has long known that Liaodong commerce has always been controlled by the Li family.
It's just because Zhu Yijun has been carrying out internal reforms with Zhang Juzheng since he came to the throne, and now after Zhang Juzheng's death, he is trying his best to prevent internal conservatives from counterattacking Zhang Juzheng, so Zhu Yijun has not devoted his energy to reforming Liaodong controlled by Li Chengliang.
What's more, Zhu Yijun also knows that Li Chengliang's ability to control Liaodong's commerce is not only because Li Chengliang is in charge of the army in Liaodong, but also because Li Chengliang has many powerful officials and gentry behind him cooperating with him, so no one can impeach Li Chengliang for using sergeants to transport business for himself To make profits from goods, they did not go up to open a frontier trade in Liaodong to collect merchant taxes.
Therefore, Zhu Yijun planned to reform the local internal affairs and military affairs after the internal stability of the central court was stabilized, so he was not in a hurry to reform Liaodong.
In addition, Li Chengliang himself is indeed capable of military affairs, and he used military means to ensure the basic peace of Liaodong.
Zhu Yijun was even less anxious to make a fuss in Liaodong.
but now.
Li Chengliang, the largest military landlord in Liaodong, could take the initiative to ask for restructuring, and even told Zhu Yijun unreservedly about his business interests in Liaodong, expressing his willingness to benefit the country.
This made Zhu Yijun very happy.
This means that the reform of Liaodong will have a lot less resistance.
"Li Chengliang is also a reformist?"
After Liang Menglong, the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, played what Li Chengliang had played, Zhu Yijun couldn't help thinking about it.
But when he thought about the fact that Li Rusong killed Li Ruzhi and others mentioned in Li Rusong's secret memorial, he felt that Li Chengliang should have been forced by his son to become a reformist.
And after Zhu Yijun thought so, he also asked Shen Shixing and Fang Fengshi: "How did you vote for the play by Ning Yuanhou?"
