Chapter 558 Bureaucrats compromise, we are willing to equalize the wealth

"What did you say, Ma Yuejiao (Ma Xianglan) refused to pick up the guests?"

Qinhuai River.

this day.

Yang Yingkui was crazy, and he was tired of the few concubines at home, so he wanted to talk to the famous prostitute Ma Xianglan and ask her to introduce some girls, but when he heard that Ma Xianglan refused to accept the guests, he couldn't help saying: "Then go to Li Yaoer's Anxiang Pavilion."

Soon.

When Yang Yingkui arrived at Anxiang Pavilion, he saw that the gate of Anxiang Pavilion was closed tightly, and there was a big white cloth hanging outside the door, and the white cloth had two big characters "no connection" written on it.

"The bitches!"

Yang Yingkui couldn't help cursing, and said: "Leave in a sedan chair instead, and go to Xu Xianger's place."

But after a while, Yang Yingkui's servant came and said:

"The bearers are on strike!"

"what?!"

Yang Yingkui was shocked, and asked again: "Then these brothels are also on strike, and all the gates are closed?"

"Back to the master, yes."

"The brothels and theaters along the Qinhuai River are on strike."

"Even Master Rabbit's mansion is closed."

Yang Yingkui's servant replied.

After hearing this, Yang Yingkui scolded: "What does this have to do with these bastards, they are also on strike!"

"My lord, you don't know that the brothel painting depends entirely on those down-and-out literati who write lyrics and songs to teach culture and beg for food, and bearers and boatmen have a good relationship with them. Now I know it's the officials and gentlemen. Don't let them beg for food. When people buy the subscription coupons, they will naturally be connected with each other.”

"Plus, I heard that during the strike, many people still get more than strike subsidies. The strike subsidies are more than wages, so they all went on strike!"

The slave replied.

But Yang Yingkui thought for a moment after hearing this, and then said: "There is a conspiracy here, there must be a conspiracy, let's go to Zhang Gonggong!"

Shortly after.

As soon as Yang Yingkui left his boat and landed, he saw many scholars and people waiting for him with "Da Gao" in their arms.

Yang Yingkui hurriedly asked, "What are you doing?"

At this time, Zhang Yunxiu came over and said: "My next Zhang Yunxiu, now bring a group of relatives and friends to invite you to come to Beijing with us!"

"What are you doing in Beijing?"

Yang Yingkui asked.

Zhang Yunxiu replied: "Naturally, Your Majesty is the one to make the decision, and sue you Yang Yingkui for conspiring to corrupt my Zhang family, destroying the family style of my loyal family, and instigating Jin Yiwei Huo Chu, prefect Xiao Dacai and others to steal the benefits of the subscription coupons!"

As he said that, Zhang Yunxiu said again: "We are now following the Taizu's legacy to bring the public lock to Beijing, and please cooperate with us!"

"Take it!"

After Zhang Yunxiu finished speaking, he yelled.

So, five or six strong men rushed over and tied Yang Yingkui into rice dumplings.

Yang Yingkui couldn't help but struggled: "Brother, if you have something to say, please speak up, don't be so preoccupied!"

"Besides, you Zhang family really don't plan to turn back, your father is also from Hanlin Qingliu anyway!"

Zhang Yunxiu said: "I have nothing to say to you."

Yang Yingkui saw Zhang Jing upstairs at this time, and hurriedly shouted: "Eunuch Zhang! Intercede with Zhang Tishuai for me, even if you want to get an official, don't let the people get an official!"

Zhang Jing hurriedly hid inside, ignored Yang Yingkui, and said to Gu Yuncheng who was also here: "I didn't expect things to develop like this!"

"From what I can see, Zhang Jingxiu is behind the scenes. He sent his servant Min Hong home, and transferred his baby brother Huo Chu. In fact, he wanted to clean up the family and attack bureaucrats and officials at the same time!"

"And now only brothels, painting boats, theaters, restaurants, and music halls are on strike, and only bearers, silversmiths, and coachmen are on strike. It is obvious that Jin Yiwei is behind the scenes. Zhang Jingxiu is here for dignitaries."

"This Zhang Siwen wants to learn from his father and fight against the people of the world!"

Gu Yuncheng said to Zhang Jing at this time.

Zhang Jing nodded after hearing this, and then sighed: "Poor Yang Gong, he hides so deeply, and I don't know who betrayed him."

Zhang Jing deliberately looked at Gu Yuncheng after speaking.

Qian Yiben and others who came with him also looked at Gu Yuncheng.

Seeing this, Gu Yuncheng hurriedly said: "Why would my Gu family betray Yang Gong? Even if they would, why did they wait until today?"

"Forget it, people's hearts are so close, how do you know who will betray Yang Gong, but everyone should be careful in the future, and don't do many things even if you want to do them!"

Zhang Jing made a smooth word at this time.

Everyone nodded.

"But now the strikes are on vocal music venues, waiters, jewelry, jade, rouge, and spices. This really affects the prosperity of this prosperous age. It's better to end it as soon as possible."

At this time, Shen Jing, the prime minister of Zhishi Guanglu Temple, couldn't help but start talking.

"Is this unbearable?"

"I want to go to Li Zhuowu, ask Li Zhuowu to negotiate with those scholars, and admit that Yang Gong and others are heinous criminals?"

"It's not that I mean to ridicule you gentlemen. You are all men with eggs, and they are men who stand up to the sky. Unlike me, the little Huangmen, who is destined to be a slave and a handmaiden. It is right to be wronged. As a man of honor, you gentlemen How can you be wronged, how can you compromise?!"

Sun Hai asked at this time, as if he was very unwilling and disappointed for these scholar-bureaucrats.

"Could it be that father-in-law is still counting on us gentlemen to recover one day, and help him to return to the palace and enter the supervisor of ceremonies?"

"Eunuch, why are you so crazy!"

"It's better to rest in Nanjing for the elderly and guard the mausoleum for the great ancestor!"

Shen Jing couldn't help but smiled wryly.

Bang!

Sun Hai slapped the table at this time and asked: "Is it true that you no longer intend to rescue the emperor from the traitorous party? Isn't it just to encourage the poor people in the market to force the brothels to go on strike, so that you can't ask for flowers and willows?" , I don’t want to fight against the traitor anymore? What kind of loyal ministers are you like this!”

When Sun Hai scolded him like this, Gu Yuncheng and others not only didn't get angry, but looked up to Sun Hai even more.

Gu Yuncheng even came over and bowed his hands to Sun Hai: "Elder-in-law scolded you well, I'm ashamed!"

Shen Jing also burst into tears: "Yes, you are right, we are ashamed of Junfu, and we cannot save Junfu from fire and water."

Although Gu Yuncheng and the others seemed to be touched by Sun Hai's scolding, they didn't hesitate when they should act cowardly.

It seems that not being able to go to the Fengyue place makes them really sad.

After returning to Suzhou, Shen Jing immediately asked the governor Li Zhi to see him, and said to Li Zhi:

"Reporting to the Fuyuan, a few of us who were lucky enough to buy the subscription tickets discussed it and decided that we are willing to give up the subscription tickets!"

"One is because the subscription coupon itself came in a wrong way, and now we know that Xiao Dacai sold it to us secretly behind the back of the people on purpose to curry favor with us, so how can we take possession of it without authorization;"

"Secondly, equal wealth was originally advocated by saints, and now the common people also ask for it. How can we not follow the wishes of the people?"

"Therefore, I am willing to give up the subscription coupons, and ask the imperial court to sell them to the people of Suzhou in a fair manner, in order to benefit as many people as possible."

After hearing this, Li Zhi was very moved and said: "It's so good, it's so good, the world can't have long-term peace and stability, but it's inseparable from the profound righteousness of the townspeople!"

Shen Jing smiled sarcastically: "Fuyuan is absurd."

Li Zhi then said: "I will use this to send people to contact the rioting scholars and people, so that they don't make trouble, and send people to negotiate with this court, how to sell this subscription ticket better."

Shen Jing went on to say: "I have an idea to make the sale of subscription coupons fairer and more in line with the purpose of benefiting the people."

"If you have a good idea, Mr. Shen, please tell me."

Li Zhi hurriedly bowed his hands and begged.

Shen Jing said: "It's better to use the method of drawing lots to limit purchases. Each state and county is allocated a certain amount of subscription coupons according to the population, and these quotas are naturally not enough for everyone in the local area to buy, so it is better to use the method of drawing lots!"

"Drawing lots?"

Li Zhi hurriedly asked.

"Yes, whoever draws lots in each state and county will be eligible to purchase, and those who have already purchased are not eligible to draw lots."

"In addition, those who are eligible to draw lots can only buy one subscription coupon, and cannot buy a lot at once."

"In addition, it can also be linked to tax-paying credit and observance of ceremonies. Only those who are good tax-paying households and innocent people without any crimes can be eligible to draw lots."

After Shen Jing said, he said: "When the lot is drawn, the emperor will send people in the court who have no connection with it to supervise, and let the people also send people with high morals to supervise, so naturally no one will doubt the process of drawing lots. If you are convinced, those who did not buy the subscription coupons will not complain, but will only say that they are unlucky."

"And as more and more court subscription coupons are issued, doing so will always benefit more people, and everyone in the world will benefit."
