Chapter 554 It is His Majesty who created the nobles of the Zhang family in Jiangling!
It is now the spring of the 17th year of Wanli.
The scenery is beautiful and the flowers are blooming.
Daming is still prosperous and is still progressing towards a more civilized direction.
However, it has been nearly seven years since Zhang Juzheng passed away, and Zhu Yijun has been in charge of state affairs for almost seven years, and Zhang Jingxiu, the son of Zhang Juzheng, has replaced Liu Shouyou as the left governor of Jinyiwei in charge of Jinyiwei.
And this time.
Zhang Jingxiu, who was dressed in flying fish and loose clothes, was standing under the eaves of Fusi in Beizhen, heaving a long sigh of relief, looking at the Jinyiwei standing on both sides of the long street with his eyes cruising in the silent drizzle.
For Zhang Jingxiu, the days of his father's presence seemed to be still yesterday, not long past.
And the days when he turned the Zhang family into a noble family of several generations of officials and turned on the lamp to study at night seemed to be last night.
But destiny is unpredictable, he never expected that he would become a figure like Lu Bing, the Great Jinwu of the current dynasty!
He is already a figure that any civil servant in the foreign dynasty would be afraid of.
Zhang Jingxiu is happy about this, like drinking spring dew.
"Brother, do we really want to do something to our own family?"
Zhang Maoxiu is also pleased with the current situation. Now he is intoxicated by the feeling of being feared by the gentry, unlike before, because he is the son of Zhang Juzheng, he was ridiculed and despised by the so-called "gentlemen".
In Zhang Maoxiu's view, since he doesn't get the respect of some people, it's better to let these people hate and fear him than to let them despise him.
But he still attaches great importance to family affection, so he asked Zhang Jingxiu after knowing that the emperor hinted that the Zhang family would dare to strictly control his family.
Zhang Jingxiu felt the same way, and after Zhang Maoxiu asked, he said:
"Everyone in the world thinks that it was my late father who made His Majesty so powerful, so that he can play with the people of the world, and they also think that it is our emperor who followed in the footsteps of my late father and also instigated him to be so powerful."
"Actually, only we know that His Majesty himself is very powerful and blessed by destiny, and our Zhang family can have the prosperity of today's fire, and it all depends on His Majesty's own means and efforts, not our Zhang family's children. How powerful I am to be able to have the momentum I have today."
"It can be said that it is His Majesty who created and blessed the Zhang family today, not our father and ourselves who created the Zhang family today!"
"So, those who are not loyal to His Majesty are not loyal to the Zhang family!"
"Those who are only loyal to the Zhang family but not to His Majesty are actually disloyal to my Zhang family, and they are just fighting for their own interests under the banner of the Zhang family."
"Therefore, the holy will must not be violated. We should do it according to the holy will, just like our father killed You Qi back then, we will punish anyone who breaks the law!"
"Let the Fusi of Nanzhen transfer Huo Chu back to Beijing to control him first, and take Min Hong, the slave who had contact with the Yang family in Nanjing, home and beat him to death in front of his family, without waiting for His Majesty to let Dongchang do it. "
Zhang Maoxiu said yes.
……
Not long after, Zhu Yijun learned about Zhang's actions from Sun Bin, and asked, "You mean, Zhang Jingxiu has already started to do something?"
"Go back to the emperor, yes!"
"In addition, Dongchang has also bought more scholars and civilians to participate in the riots in Suzhou, and His Majesty always keeps an eye on these scholars and common people."
Sun Bin replied.
Zhu Yijun nodded after hearing this: "Remember to report to me at any time. Whether I can completely control the civil and military bureaucrats to do things according to my will depends entirely on whether they can help me, so you can't be careless, and you can't lie to me to please me. , saying that they are not mobs, and in addition, if there are treacherous people who are secretly fighting, they must be watched closely!"
"In any case, I hope that the scholars and people in Suzhou will not disappoint me. If the people's wisdom is still undeveloped in the most prosperous place of culture and education in the world, then I can only continue to tolerate the civil and military bureaucrats!"
"Yes!"
"The servant thinks that they will not disappoint His Majesty."
Sun Bin replied.
Zhu Yijun just smiled slightly, and said again: "Besides, if you tell Zhang Jingxiu the dirty things about the Zhang family that you Dongchang found out in a human way, he will naturally know that this is because I asked Dongchang to help him, but it is also Supervising him at Dongchang."
"The slaves obey the orders!"
……
At that time, Nandu.
Zhang Jing was asking the civil servant Yang Yingkui: "Are you really corrupting the people in the Zhongguo government?"
Yang Yingkui nodded and said with a smile, "People like Zhang Siwen can't be corrupted. Why can't we start with his family? Since Zhang Siwen is not greedy for money and not afraid of death, it doesn't mean that everyone in his Zhang family is not greedy for money and not afraid of death."
"In this way, if Zhang Siwen jumps into the Yellow River in the future, he won't be able to clean himself up. People in the world will not believe that what the Zhang family did has nothing to do with him."
"This is indeed a poisonous plan!"
After Zhang Jing said that, he asked Yang Yingkui: "But will Zhang Siwen kill his relatives righteously?"
Yang Yingkui lowered his face after hearing this and said, "Then I can only completely convince him!"
At this moment, the scholar Qiao Jinsheng came to Yang Yingkui and Zhang Jing and said: "I just got the news that Huo Chu, a thousand households of Jinyiwei stationed in Yingtian, was transferred back to Beijing. In addition, Min Hong was also called back to his hometown in Huguang by the Zhang family. He said he was going back to take over the work of an old butler in the mansion, and he was in charge of the Zhang family's store business in Huguang."
After hearing this, Yang Yingkui said: "In this case, we should immediately send someone to Huguang to inquire about the situation."
Zhang Jing and Qiao Jinsheng all nodded in agreement.
However, Huo Chu and Min Hong, two people related to the Zhang family, were transferred away from Yingtian.
Huo Chu was transferred back to the capital in the name of being promoted. He didn't know that Zhang Jingxiu wanted to follow the holy will and kill his relatives righteously. He just felt very happy that he was really a person with a strong relationship. He had made enough profits in Yingtian. You can go back up.
Huo Chu knew that all of his things were brought to him by the Zhang family, so he specially selected many precious gifts to Beijing, and planned to give them to Zhang Jingxiu, etc., to show that he knew how to be grateful.
Min Hong also returned to the Zhang family with a large number of subscription coupons, intending to claim credit for his patriarch and let the people of the Zhang family know that he had won a lot of benefits for the Zhang family in Yingtian, but he didn't know that he was about to be killed by Zhang. Home object to clean up the portal.
And when Huo Chu and Min Hong left Yingtian, there was already a commotion in the area of Suzhou over the issue of subscription tickets.
The people of Suzhou did not disappoint Zhu Yijun.
Zhu Jiayan's domineering attitude of ignoring the dignity of ordinary people completely angered the scholars and people in Suzhou.
Therefore, a large-scale school strike broke out soon.
A large number of ordinary people have become middle class because of the policy of benefiting the people, and after a large number of scholars have become scholars through reading, they are more concerned about the competition for political and economic interests, rather than just accepting it.
Especially Suzhou, which is now the economic center of the Ming Dynasty.
There are more civilian children who study, and the awareness of fighting for rights is also stronger.
What's more, Zhu Yijun didn't let the government stop them from doing this last time, so now they are more active and bold.
Xiao Dacai, the prefect of Suzhou, was furious about this, arrested a large number of scholars, and directly wrote that the academic officials wanted to abolish the fame of these dismissed scholars.
However, shortly after Tixue Guan deposed and dismissed the scholars because of their mutual protection, workers and businessmen in Suzhou followed suit and went on strike, which directly caused industrial paralysis in many cities and towns in Suzhou.
"What exactly is going on?!"
Li Zhi, the governor who was discussing with several local Confucian scholars at Donglin Academy whether to set up a girls' school to completely eradicate the status quo where women are influenced by the old rituals and know how to uphold the old rituals and are ashamed of working, therefore hurried to Suzhou and asked He mentioned the inspector Su Yao who came here.
Su Yao said: "Of course it's because of the subscription tickets! The citizens suspect that the sale of the subscription tickets is involved in malpractice, so they demand to announce the sale situation."
"Didn't the imperial court ask for the announcement? Why did the people still ask for the announcement? Is it because the lower officials didn't announce it?"
As soon as Li Zhi finished asking, he said without waiting for Su Yao's answer: "I understand, the officials below are not willing to publicize it, so even if it is publicized, it is false."
Su Yao replied: "Yes, I checked, but I couldn't find it."
"Because when I went to check, I found that many small people bought subscription tickets, and indeed bought most of them at a very early time, such as the early morning when the subscription tickets were just released, and the background of these small people is indeed very innocent. , so right now we can only assume that these people are messing around. After all, we can’t keep them from going to school, working, or opening the market. At that time, it will affect the tax revenue of the entire country, the food and clothing of many people who don’t want to make trouble, and more importantly There is also your future in Fuyuan."
After Su Yao said that, he looked at Li Zhi helplessly.
There is no update today, because the thinking behind is a bit messy, and I feel that there is a lot to write, but I don’t know where to focus, so I won’t add more, and I will sort out my thoughts at night
