Chapter 152 Redefining Qingliu
"Expensive." Hai Ruiyan said concisely and comprehensively. He did not discuss that the only people who rebelled in the past were the common people who could not survive, nor did he discuss the general contradictions among the powerful, but based on In practice, we talked about an issue: raising an infantry battalion is really expensive.
“Expensive?” Ge Shouli understood somewhat and nodded.
Hai Rui continued: "This is expensive in many aspects. People are expensive, training troops is expensive, armaments are expensive, and maintaining an infantry camp is even more expensive. If General Ge Xian notices the six volumes and one account of the Beijing camp, he will You will find that the amount of money needed to raise a Buying is not something that one powerful person can handle by spending his own money."
Buying is expensive in many aspects, and it takes three years. Since then, there have been 3,000 people in an infantry camp. From military pay, to armaments, to training, to maintaining the Beijing camp, the consumption is extremely staggering.
Moving to Amber itself is clean enough. Even so, the three step camps of the imperial court's Yangjing camp and the thirty step camps of Yongping Shanhaiguan in Jizhou have tried their best.
Jingli is really expensive.
"What is the most expensive thing?" Zhu Yijun looked at Ge Shouli and Hai Rui and said: "The most expensive thing is the court that maintains this army, and the people's hearts."
Everyone They are all Ming Gong, and everyone can understand what the little emperor says.
Buying is expensive in a physical sense. If you don’t have real money to spend on it, do you still want to support Buying?
The infantry camp is more expensive in a political sense. To set up the infantry camp requires the selection of soldiers who are not afraid of death. It requires the Ordnance Bureau to build long and short soldiers, crossbows, armor, firearms and other armaments. It requires the Ministry of Household Affairs to find enough resources. Food, grass and military pay require an effective system to complete the construction of the army, the political support of the Ministry of War and Yuan Fu, and the trust of the emperor.
The value of Buying lies in itself, the court, and the support of the people in the world.
Ge Shouli bowed his head and said: "I understand, and I will obey your Majesty's teachings."
Zhang Juzheng said solemnly: "Ge Zongxian asked a good question. Although they cannot form an infantry camp, But according to He Xinyin's explanation, the cowardly people want to gain military power and even compete with the imperial court."
"The demon Zeng Guang is ignorant of his origins and can confuse people with his words and gather disciples to lecture. , Taoist Qu Tianrui, Taihu Zheng Shitao, Jingjiang Lei Deming, Liu Hong, Nanchang Zhang Yide, Gao'an Chuanzhuyi, Wugang Ouyang Meng, Jingzhou Liu Zongwen, Ji'an Luo Xun, etc., used to travel to Huguang, Guizhou, Sichuan and other places among the chieftains, and taught He used the art of war to plan important events, and wrote demonic books such as "Da Qian Qi Yun Lu", and used the Tai Qian Tai Chi emperor's treasure as the name to persuade Shuixi, Yongshun, Baojing, Youyang and other chieftains to unite and initiate rebellion."
"And He Xinyin is just one of the mice in a nest."
"Obviously, it's not that he doesn't want to, but that he didn't do it. If he hadn't been caught quickly and dug up early this time, it would be hard to say What kind of trouble can they cause?"
The courtiers were talking about it. This caused the chieftains in Guizhou and other places to fight and stir up trouble. Ge Shouli's worries were justified. The powerful people wanted to hold the knife, but it was too expensive to buy. I can't afford it, I just can't hold it.
No, the next best thing is to get together with the hereditary chieftain of Xin'an.
"I'm afraid that the ministers will be chattering again, saying that Yuan Fu took the opportunity to suppress dissidents and re-examined officials to suppress Qingliu Qingyi." Ge Shouli shook his head after reading the memorial. He is the General Constitution of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the most recent The public opinion was so fanatical that it was as if the world would be turned upside down, and the waves of opposition to Zhang Juzheng became louder and louder.
From the 21st year of Jiajing to the beginning of Wanli, some literati enthusiastically criticized the government while writing books and gathering disciples to give lectures, which was called Qingyi.
Qingyi: A fair discussion by those who supervise customs, clarify right and wrong, and preach.
Hai Rui sneered and said: "Qingyi, are they Qingliu? Do you have the nerve to say that you are Qingliu?"
"Everyone took the money of the powerful and ran around and shouted for the powerful. , what does He Xinyin say? Sages are greater than scholars, scholars are greater than merchants, merchants are greater than farmers and workers, but he ranks the four pillars of the country. Is he just taking the money of the powerful gentry and wealthy merchants? Just running for them."
"Qingyi, if you want to think that you are Qingliu, you must be Qingliu. If you are Qingliu, you must be honest. Only when you are honest can you be Qingliu and his discussion can be Qingyi. Otherwise, it’s just nonsense.”
“It’s better to not let them discuss it. If you want to discuss it, you can just use my life in Hainan as a reference.”
“ To be honest, one must live in a mud house, go in and out, be alone and not be surrounded by people, not go into brothels, not drink alcohol, and not entertain guests. Just be as incorruptible as an ascetic monk. This is the clean flow, and only the clean flow can Qingyi, that’s no problem.”
“He Xinyin and other Taizhou schools don’t claim to speak for the common people. Their disciples have learned from Bao Gongqing at the top, and arrested scholars, commoners, woodcutters, and farmers at the bottom. Wanfang? They can't go to a family of five wearing only two pairs of pants, dressed in silk and satin, escorted in and out of sedan chairs, accompanied by beautiful women.
“Let’s draw a standard and use it as the standard for my entry and exit in Qiongzhou. If it can be achieved, it will be a clear discussion. If you do one thing in front of others and another behind your back, you will be pure and debauched behind the scenes, but if you are caught, you will be treated as a monster. Shu Zhenwei beheaded."
"Qingliu's reputation was ruined by them."
Hai Ruihaigangfeng, the mainstay of Qingliu in the court, launched the redefinition of Qingliu. To flaunt himself as Qingliu, and to discuss government affairs cleanly, he must be honest and not extravagant. If he cannot do this, then he should not flaunt himself as Qingliu.
Ge Shouli was silent for a moment and said: "Hai Zongxian's standards are a bit too high."
"turbidity is turbidity. If you have to say that you are Qingyi, just follow this standard." "Wan Shihe highly agrees with Hai Rui's standards. Wan Shihe has never claimed to be a clean figure. He is not honest and has no noble ambitions. He is just a two-faced person who sits on the fence.
Zhang Juzheng, Tan Lun, Wang Guoguang and others directly define themselves as Xunli. Xunli mainly focus on doing things. If they succeed, they are good ministers. If they do not, they are mediocre. Go home and sell sweet potatoes.
Wang Chonggu simply thinks that he is a turbulent person. He just wants to make a fortune. As long as he can make a fortune, he can even sell his own nephew at a suitable price.
This is the appearance of all living beings in the court, but they claim to be clean and honest, but they are not honest. Doesn’t this mean that they have to erect memorial arches even if they are acting as a concubine?
How can they let them take over all the good things in the world? Just because they are eloquent? How could such a beautiful thing exist?
Zhang Juzheng thought for a long time and said: "Then according to Hai Zongxian's words, those who are honest and honest will make clear discussions, and those who are greedy for ink will make turbulent discussions, and it will be turbid. What do you think?"
Zhang Han thought for a while and said: "What if you are born into a wealthy family? Do you have to be poor when your family is rich? People are inherently luxurious and have noble aspirations. If they are unwilling to join in the trend, then they are not pure?"
"Yihai The general constitution is for reference, so are the requirements too high? ”
After Zhang Han finished speaking, the courtiers all looked at Zhang Han, but no one paid attention to him or even answered him.
Zhu Yijun felt particularly interesting when he saw this scene. Ge Shouli also said that Hai Rui's standards were too high. No one thought there was a problem. When Zhang Han opened his mouth, everyone ignored him. In fact, it was very simple. Ge Shouli I really think it's high, and it's really high by Hai Rui's standards. Ge Shouli is talking about things.
It is unclear what Zhang Han’s intentions were. Who is Zhang Han serving as an official? Serve as an official for His Majesty? Serve as an official in the imperial court? Be an official for Ming Dynasty? Give him an official position?
I am afraid that I am serving as an official for powerful people.
Zhu Yijun said: "Hai Zongxian's standard is indeed a bit high. How many people in the world can do it? If you want to open your eyes to the common people, you must not be able to farm. If you don't even know how to farm, , even the grains are not distinguished, and it is just false to arrest the common people, woodcutter, and farmers. Let’s take this as the standard. Do you know how to farm? "
"Sir, what do you think? br>"Your Majesty is wise." Zhang Juzheng thought about it and found that it was indeed the case. The standard of farming was just right.
Your Majesty knows how to farm, but you say that you don’t know how to farm. You also say that you are working for the common people, but you don’t even understand the stomach problems that the common people are most concerned about. This is a hypocritical person, and you are by no means clean.
Turbid current is turbid current, what are you pretending to be!
"The Ministry of Personnel has recommended Guo Chaobin, the left minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, as the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. What do you think?" Zhang Juzheng dug out another memorial and talked about the candidate for the Minister of the Ministry of Industry.
In the Ministry of Works, at the end of the Sixth Ministry, from Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Household Affairs to Minister of the Ministry of Works, it is difficult to say whether he was promoted or was promoted over and over again, but for a while there was no better manpower, especially for the repair of the imperial mausoleum in the imperial court. Big, now that I am the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, I need to get rid of this big thunder.
No one objected. Guo Chaobin came out to resist the thunder and was not a party member of anyone.
Zhang Juzheng continued: "Wu Baipeng, the Minister of Reading, read and declared the University, and made a memorial: The memorial announced the affairs of the Datun field. In the early days of the country, the land was given lightly, and the army was cultivated. Later, the land was given and the amount of land was increased. , and because of the increase in military taxes and the increase of taxes on acres of grass and grass, resulting in shortages and migration, Wang Chonggu, the governor of the Xuan Dynasty, recruited many people from various sources. It is estimated that 47,500 acres of land will be newly cultivated. This year According to inspection, a total of 5,103,764 acres have been acquired, which is more than 380,000 acres this year compared to last year."
"Princes and talents"
Wang Chonggu was stunned. He had returned to Beijing from Xuanda for several months. He was not very clear about what Wu Baipeng was doing in Xuanda. It turned out that he went to check the number of fields he cultivated. He smiled and said: "Generally Normally, it’s just a duty.”
Wang Chonggu cultivated the fields to make money. The court said that he would only pay the soldiers in kind. Wang Chonggu did it to get the money from the court, but this was indeed the credit of the Antu herdsmen.
The 190,000 landless tenants are indeed a great achievement. When Wu Baipeng went to see it, it was also the case. Merits are merits and faults are faults.
Soon Wang Chonggu realized the importance of this memorial. He returned to Beijing to serve as a reward, not as a recommendation from Zhang Han and Zhang Siwei. This was of great significance to Wang Chonggu as an official in the court. In other words, at least on the matter of entering Beijing as an official, Wang Chonggu could clearly separate politically from Zhang Han and Zhang Siwei.
This great Sikou was earned by Wang Chonggu upright through his merits and not through the appeasement of the clan party.
This is very important to Wang Chonggu.
Zhang Juzheng looked through the memorial. This memorial was very long. It also came with a fish scale booklet, which showed the specific location of the newly cultivated acres and the number of households to be resettled. It was one of six volumes per account. Zhang Juzheng had previously thought that Wang Chonggu It is an exaggeration. The land must have been reclaimed and the barren land must have been restored. However, the figure of 47,000 hectares is somewhat doubtful.
Too many.
But Wu Baipeng's actual conquest was more than 51,000 acres, and even more than 300,000 acres. This was due to the inertia of Wang Chonggu's decrees in Xuanda.
Zhang Juzheng was very happy to see Wang Chonggu's change.
Wang Chonggu’s remaining prestige in Xuanda can only last for two years. Xuanda’s governors and governors, one Wu Dui and the other Fang Fengshi, are both capable of lying about military information to intimidate the court’s ministers. Xuanda’s situation is slightly encouraging. , will rot again.
Zhang Siwei is really an idiot. Zhang Juzheng looked at the memorial in his hand and could only shake his head. "Wu Dui, the governor of Xuan Dynasty, sent a memorial to invite the third lady of the northern captives to visit the Xuan Mansion and pay tribute to the Khan on my behalf." Zhang Juzheng talked about the specific arrangements for me to pay tribute, which was related to the war in Liaodong.
This is also normal. The Ming Dynasty sent troops to the northeast and entertained the third lady in the northwest. I'm old, and the third lady is the talker in the Northern Kingdom of Jin. As long as the third lady is In Xuanfu, Ming's risk of war in the northwest will be reduced, and Ming can do whatever it wants in the northeast.
Since the prisoners and thieves chieftains were sent to the capital in Kegul Village of the Ming Dynasty last year, Gao, the rebel chieftain, and Buha Chu, the nephew of Dong Fox, were imprisoned in the sky prison.
In the spring, the Tuman tribes invaded Changyong Fort, and Li Chengliang repulsed them. In April, the Tuman chieftains captured the Tuman tribes, sacrificed flags and gathered troops, claiming to pay tribute to the imperial court. If they refused, they would After seizing Shanhaiguan and reaching Kaiyuan, Li Chengliang went to battle, while Jizhou general Chen Dacheng led his elite troops out of Shanhaiguan to support them and drove back the barbarians again.
In May, when he heard about the situation of the captives again, Zhang Juzheng reported that Zhang Xueyan, the governor of Liaodong, reported that the captives braved the summer heat to support the crowd, which was not the right time. It rained continuously in the summer, and the bows and horses were tired, so they could not succeed.
You cannot draw your bow on rainy days, because the rain will soak the bow string. Zhu Yijun, who practices martial arts, naturally knows this truth.
At the Wenhua Palace meeting, General Qi Jiguang and Grand Sima Tan Lun also said the same thing. However, Wu Dui made more noise and said: I am afraid that the Beibei may unite with the Tuman and Jurchen. The Ministry of War's discussion was not trustworthy, and as expected, the Tubarbarians went south in May because the summer vacation was coming and it was raining heavily, so they had to evacuate on their own.
In September, the barbarians were ready to move again, and the war in Liaodong was imminent.
The development of things does not happen overnight, but has a very clear context and signs.
After the court meeting, Zhu Yijun did not hold a banquet as usual, but took a carriage and headed towards Beitucheng. This is the headquarters of the Jingying camp. The Ming Dynasty Jingying camp will attack again to fight in Liaodong. .
Zhu Yijun came to Wuying Tower in Beitucheng. Qi Jiguang received the seal of General Zhenglu, Liang Menglong took charge of the military affairs of the governor, and Ma Fang and Li Rusong were the deputy generals on the left and right, preparing to leave.
"Commander Qi has worked hard, and the army of the Ming Dynasty has worked hard. I want to go with all the generals, but I am small and weak, so I will not cause trouble to the generals. I will be in the capital, waiting for the army to return in triumph." Zhu Yijun stood at Wuying Tower. Here, he personally came to see off this departure.
“The Ming army is mighty!”
“Your Majesty is mighty!”
Zhu Yijun came to the gate of the camp, stood in front of a main compartment military vehicle, and gently pushed the mud-covered wheel hub.
In the first year of Wu, after Xu Da led General Yin Shou to conquer the captives, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was still the king of Wu, personally pushed Xu Da's wheel and asked him to conquer Hu Yuan. Later, Hu Yuan was defeated and Bei Yuan was defeated. , the Han court of the Northern Yuan Dynasty was beaten into northern captives by Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty.
Now that the Beilu are rampant again, Zhu Yijun, as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, stands at the gate of Beitucheng and sees off the Ming army again.
With the sound of drums and the sound of horns, more than 10,000 elite troops began to march north. Zhu Yijun stood in front of the camp gate, watching the endless convoy of the Ming army slowly disappearing at the end of the sky. He said to Zhang Juzheng: "Ambition will be spread."
In Zhang Siwei's opinion, this may be a good opportunity. The capital of the Ming Dynasty is empty and the elites are heading north. Isn't this just a matter of holding a sword to see His Majesty and having a bitter exchange with His Majesty? A good time? All he needs to do is mobilize the Xuan Wei army and go straight to the capital city. Even if he cannot seize the power of life and death, he can still let the court know how powerful he is!
But in Wang Chonggu's view, this is the most dangerous time. At this time, to fight with the court and Zhang Juzheng is to seek death. Once the northwest jumps back, the court can immediately release the lock. The rebel chieftain Gao and Dong Hu's nephew Buha, who were in Tianlao, came out, agreed to the tribute and market requests from the Tuman tribes, and then withdrew their troops to quell the rebellion in the northwest.
Just like Wu Dui is currently hosting a banquet for the Third Lady in the Xuan Mansion, Zhang Xueyan can also be hosting a banquet for Chahan Khan in the Northeast to stabilize the Northeast and then the Northwest.
On the way back to the city, Wang Chonggu came close to Zhang Juzheng and whispered: "Yuanfu, my remaining power in the northwest is still there. It's okay this time. Next time, I'm afraid there will be trouble. Next time, I'm afraid..."
Wang Chonggu didn't finish his words, but his attitude was very clear. He can't control it for too long, and his remaining power will only be two years at most. When trouble breaks out in the northwest, and the court imposes punishment, it can't hurt him. This kind person has no rebellious intentions.
Wang Chonggu felt that the northwest would not be able to win, even if it relied on the momentum of the northern captives, so he sent them off today. The Ming Dynasty's army was in good order. Can these ten thousand sharp soldiers or one hundred thousand be able to compete? The answer is no.
The sharp soldiers who have been baptized by the fire of war will only become stronger.
"Wang Sikou is now the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment of the Ming Dynasty. He is responsible for the name of punishment, as well as the official wool factory. The turmoil in the northwest has nothing to do with the prince." Zhang Juzheng said in a low voice, and he gave Wang Chonggu a reassurance.
In the fifth year of Wanli, His Majesty will get married. After the wedding, it will be time for him to take charge of the government. Zhang Juzheng does not intend to be obsessed with power. Your Majesty hopes for the revival of the Ming Dynasty even more than he does. He can also have some leisure and engage in a Doing mathematics, studying optics, and occasionally going to the fields to grind starch, might it be a beautiful thing?
As for the promise, Zhang Juzheng’s promise is not His Majesty’s promise.
Zhu Yijun returned to the capital and began to continue tinkering with his reflecting telescope. He asked Zhang Juzheng questions, but he actually knew the answer clearly.
The Ming Dynasty began to pursue the case of He Xinyin in Nanya. The Tiqi attacked everywhere, and Luo Bingliang, who was responsible for collecting taxes from thousands of households, personally went to Ji'an, Jiangxi and confiscated the Yang family in Luling.
The Yang family in Luling originated from Yang Ren and has continued continuously since then. Luo Bingliang copied this family and was the Yang of Yang Shiqi. Yang Shiqi served in five dynasties and six emperors. He served as an assistant minister in the cabinet for forty years. Yu Nian, the first assistant for twenty-one years.
The Yang family of Luling in the Ming Dynasty is known as the Four Generations and Three Dukes, and the world calls it a distinguished family. Yang Shiqi, Yang Pu, and Yang Tinghe have produced three prime ministers in the four generations. Although Yang Shiqi is a descendant of Yang Rui, the eldest son of Yang Ren, Yang Pu is the descendant of Yang Qing, the second son of Yang Ren, and Yang Tinghe is the descendant of Yang She, the fifth son of Yang Ren.
This time Tiqi confiscated the family, only the eldest son Yang Rui's family was confiscated, funding He Xinyin, Zeng Guang, Qu Tianrui, Zheng Shitao, Lei Deming, Liu Hong, Zhang Yide, Chuan Zhuyi, Ouyang Meng, Liu Zongwen, Luo Xun and others were none other than Yang Youren, a descendant of Yang Shiqi.
In order to successfully raid the house this time, Luo Bingliang specially seconded 3,000 soldiers from Jiangxi and asked Jiangxi Governor Pan Jixun to come together to prevent changes.
Pan Jixun told Luo Bingliang that there was no need, just go and ransack the house. Only when Luo Bingliang arrived did he realize that there were five lines of the Yang family in Luling. These five lines could not be said to be in the same spirit, or they could only be said to be enemies of each other.
Luo Bingliang came to ransack the house, and the other four families even lit firecrackers directly. They wanted to come up and help ransack the house together. After all, it was all caused by interests. Jiangxi is not rich in the first place, and the means of production are so small. There are many, but Yang Shiqi's first house and Yang Tinghe's fifth house are fighting to the death. Take the imperial examination as an example. There are only a few places for students and candidates. What do you take away from me?
Fields, people, workshops, waterways, etc. are all the same. The fifth house and the other three houses fight back and forth with the big house.
Now that the big house is in trouble, it is really like the wall falling and everyone pushing down, and the tree falling and the hozens scattering.
Just like the hatred between the Sun family and the Xu family in Sun Keyi and Sun Kehong, contradictions are always common. How to use the contradictions between the powerful right-wingers, the powerful gentry, and the wealthy businessmen to provoke the inside and outside, Continuous differentiation is the key task of the tax inspection office and the tax inspection bureau in the future.
If you want to collect taxes, it is absolutely impossible to completely collect taxes without a mole.
In September, a reminder note, or a reminder, was issued to Quan Hao.
According to the Qingzhang's fish scale book, the tax collector began to collect arrears. Now there are mourners all over the place. If the reminder is not paid, then don't blame the court for turning its back on the person.
It means that the court does not intend to deal with it internally, but will put this matter in the open. When the time comes, the right and wrong will naturally be decided. The tax you owe is how much a farmer has. For money that cannot be earned in a thousand years, do you think the people will scold the court for being harsh, or will they scold the rich and powerful for refusing to pay taxes and scolding the common people?
While Tiqi Qianhu was busy and dizzy, Songjiang Prefecture’s painting boat had completed its trial operation and received a good response.
Soon the schedule was moved to the following year. Sun Keyi keenly discovered the business opportunity and immediately continued to customize it. Songjiang Shipyard did not have production capacity, so he went to Yuegang Shipyard. These were all shipyards of the Ming Dynasty. Wherever they were built, they were not made. ?
A huge industrial chain is forming. Whoever masters the production tools first will gain huge advantages in this industry.
Sun Keyi discovered a huge problem, that is, the price of Yangzhou thin horses is rising rapidly, and the speed is alarming. Not only that, even the prices of prostitutes on the banks of the Qinhuai River in Nanya and on the banks of the Huangpu River in Songjiang Prefecture are also going crazy. This is naturally due to the large inflow of silver and the reduction in the number of practitioners.
Yes, the number of practitioners in the prostitute industry is decreasing, because the two weaving bureaus of Songjiang Prefecture and Yingtian Prefecture, and the Wool Official Factory of Beiya are also recruiting weavers. Weaving does require dexterity.
Prostitutes typically work for young people. This job is unstable and easy to get sick. The turnover is huge. Those who die from illness and those who are good are good. It is a dynamic industry, but now the three official factories have directly absorbed a large number of workers. Weavers also had a certain impact on the prostitution industry.
Those who want to go to the sea will naturally not want to go to the sea when they see that they can make a lot of money by weaving there. After all, prostitutes are of low status, and once they enter prostitution, they will be of low status for generations.
According to the past path of dependence, it is necessary to increase investment in the dental industry, that is, to let people buy some girls from everywhere and train them at an early age. However, Sun Keyi’s plan is to train them locally, which is a bit expensive. , it would be more appropriate to import directly from North Korea and Japan.
Importing can also create an exotic name, just like Hu Ji in the Tang Dynasty.
Yangzhou Shouma needs to divide the accounts. A customer has 500 taels of silver, and Shouma has to take away 200 taels. In addition to the expenses of raising a boat, raising servants, etc., the period of getting back the money will become longer. But the oiran who bought the Japanese country, Goryeo Ji of North Korea, did not have this concern. This is a relationship of strong personal dependence, splitting the accounts? Not satisfied with delicious food and good drinks and being served by servants? Still want to divide the accounts?
"Brother." Sun Kehong looked at Sun Keyi who was doing the accounting and hesitated for a long time before speaking.
"What's wrong?" Sun Keyi stopped taking stock and looked at Sun Kehong's swivel chair. Sun Kehong could only sit on the swivel chair.
Sun Keyi knew that his brother’s leg was caused by Xu Jie!
Back then, when Gao Gong suppressed Xu Jie, Xu Jie pushed Sun Kehong out as a scapegoat and had both of his legs disabled. Therefore, Sun Keyi gnashed his teeth in hatred towards Xu Jie because this old fox was too treacherous. He Xinyin's matter was not pursued to Xu Jie's head.
"This business is unreasonable, otherwise we shouldn't do it. We are already very rich." Sun Kehong said with a little worry.
Sun Keyi thought about it and said: "Brother, what do you mean, if you work for the court, you are seeking skin from a tiger?"
Sun Kehong nodded and said: "Yes, if the wind in the court changes, The imperial court has abandoned them, and the powerful Jin gentry regards us as their enemies. When the time comes, I, the Sun family, will be in a dilemma. What happened in the past is in the past. I am still alive, but I am not dead. The hatred I have with the Xu family should be over. Just let it go."
"I'm already a useless person, why bother."
"My brother said let it go, so I can't let it go. I won't be able to sleep or eat well until Old Dog Xu is dead. !" Sun Keyi shook his head and said firmly: "This revenge must be avenged!"
"Zhang Juzheng is fifty this year. He can still rule the country for ten years, fifteen years, let's talk about ten years. It has long been a foregone conclusion that if someone else is in charge of the country, it may be difficult to ban the sea. The court also needs to eat, and cannot live just drinking from the northwest wind. "
The reason why Sun Keyi decided to serve the court was not simple. In order to take revenge, he also has his own thoughts. Once something becomes inertial and forms a huge interest group, it will be difficult for the court to change it again. It will be difficult to change it in thirty to fifty years.
"Master, Luo Qianhu has arrived at Songjiang Mansion and sent an invitation to the master." A concierge took the invitation and Luo Bingliang invited Sun Keyi to the Yamen of Songjiang Mansion.
Luo Bingliang came to Songjiang Mansion, naturally, to handle a debt collection project, but it was not to pursue Sun's tax debt, but Xu Jie's tax debt, so he could do some small things and watch the excitement.
Please give me a monthly ticket, wow! ! ! ! ! ! !
