"I rely on it!" The guards who were in charge of defending were shocked. Although the work of returning farmland to people has been very prosperous recently, the corresponding adults have offended many people, so they are usually very Be careful, but what's going on now
(This is the front yard. Although it will not affect the safety of Yang Shanlu, it shows that the danger has surfaced)
When a group of guards picked up this small note, and after checking it, it was handed over to Yang Shanlu... Because it stated that the special envoy personally enlightened it.
But after Yang Shanlu saw this unusual way of delivering letters, his brows were frowning... My dear, no one hurts, it hurts! Moreover, Yang Shanlu believed very much in the content of this note, because that king Jin definitely had this motive!
However, in order to be sure, Yang Shanlu said to the guard who sent in: "Go and find a way to contact the person who sent the note. I have to ask in person!"
"Brother Yang, this is not appropriate." Liu Dabangma, who stood by the side, said quickly: "This person said in the letter (the three brothers did not reveal all their identities, only one person), they came to assassinate him with a reward. You, so it’s not a good way to come, if this is summoned in person..."
"It's okay—" Yang Shanlu waved his hand: "Since this person can send in a small note, he has already explained his position, so it doesn't matter if I summon him."
Seeing that Yang Shanlu insisted, Liu Dabangmao could only take the order, and after a while, after some contact, he brought in the youngest of them (of course, he had been rigorously searched in advance to ensure that he did not carry it. Any weapon or the like).
After Yang Shanlu asked it face-to-face, and then based on the details he provided, it was already certain... It was undoubtedly King Jin's mansion that underwent this poisonous hand.
So after expressing his gratitude to the youngest third, in the face of this sudden situation, Yang Shanlu summoned his men, like Hu Yuanmou (who was already a confidant after a trial), and Zuo Mao First, Sun Changming or something, let’s brainstorm together and talk about what to do
Then when these people arrived, they were very angry when they learned of this situation... This is really lawless! Even violated the fundamental bottom line!
(Because generally speaking, there is such an unwritten rule in the Ming Dynasty. Take the common party disputes (such as the previous dispute between Yang Sichang and Donglin party members). When the two parties fight, they can make unique moves, but the bottom line is Until one party steps down to serve, it won’t kill anyone, but what about now?)
So in this one, Yang Shanlu's most hard-hearted confidant, Sun Changming (also his mother-in-law), made a suggestion on the spot... Since you are unkind, let me be unrighteous!
Anyway, a few days ago, after Zuo Maodi and Jin Yiwei’s secret melodies were sent to the capital, Emperor Chongzhen had ordered that the Jin king be escorted to the capital and handed over to the clan’s mansion for questioning (the official yamen in charge of royal affairs) , So just take advantage of this opportunity and click him off halfway, once and for all!
Regarding this suggestion, although the other people did not express their views, most of them adopted an acquiescent attitude, because they all understood that according to the urinary nature of the Ming imperial family, if ordinary people did this kind of assassination of envoys, of course they would only lose their heads. The end of the game is different when it is placed on this kind of dragon son and grandson (who tells them to be born?).
It is estimated that the most serious punishment is only life imprisonment, spending the rest of your life inside the high walls of the clan mansion, but the problem is who knows what will happen in the future, what if it is released later? So instead of keeping this scourge, it's better to give him a click to clean it up!
Faced with this suggestion, Yang Shanlu only took half of it after considering it... That is what he didn't want to do so absolutely, but since the opponent has already broken the bottom line and sent someone to kill him, then he didn't. It is necessary to stay behind so that King Jin stays in the world, but the method needs to be changed.
He couldn't kill the King Jin, but he could leave it to Chongzhen to do it. In other words, he could just take this opportunity to see Chongzhen's attitude towards him! In other words, his position in Chongzhen's mind!
Of course, before that, he must explain the whole story clearly, that is, afterwards, Yang Shanlu will send people to send all the evidence of the people who assassinated the king of Jin to the capital, and then he can formally complain to Chongzhen... The minister is very aggrieved. ! The minister works for the court, works for you, the emperor! (Because the whole world is not a king, so from this perspective, governing Shanxi is also doing things for Chongzhen)
It turned out that someone was going to assassinate me! What is even more chilling is that it is your old Zhu family who is going to assassinate me! Loyalty in return for such a reward... It is really chilling! So what to do with him is up to you!
Regarding Yang Shanlu’s decision, some of you here don’t quite understand it, but a smart person like Hu Yuanmou has fully understood it, including the hidden deep meaning (some words are not convenient to put) The desk said clearly), so he was on the spot to support Yang Shanlu's decision!
And then everyone present you look at me, I look at you, and after careful consideration, they all understood the hidden meaning (at least it can be vaguely touched), and then all passed (this one only left Maodi did not express his position, but also did not express opposition, similar to the abstention of later generations).
And this is also very obvious... In fact, this is a trick of Yang Shanlu's temptation! Because to put it plainly, Yang Shanlu now dares to risk the world's unrest and resolutely rule Shanxi (that is, the kind of'self-seeking hard work'), including in order to eliminate the Tartars, without regard to suspicion, training a huge army , Relying on Chongzhen's trust, or an incomparable position in his heart!
But if Chongzhen couldn't set the balance in such a trivial matter, and he still protected his emperor, then Yang Shanlu would need to think carefully about whether such unilateral allegiance is necessary!
Or in other words, Yang Shanlu is not a saint, he has done his best for Daming Jiangshan. If Emperor Chongzhen still protects his emperor, then Yang Shanlu really needs to think about it... What will happen in the future... go
Does he have to support this court? Couldn't he be an emperor by himself? Have to suffer from this bird's air? Put people under his command? (More importantly, it can also be seen that in the future there will be the risk of sly rabbits dying and running dogs cooking).
Although Yang Shanlu always felt that being an emperor was a very tiring task (Originally, Yang Shanlu had a very delicate plan for the position after fame and achievement, after all, in this feudal dynasty where the legal system was not sound, It is necessary to save China and not to arouse Chongzhen's suspicion. The two sides can be in peace with each other. That is really a matter of testing IQ.
Of course, Yang Shanlu had made plans two years ago. After all, this matter is related to his own life. It should not be taken lightly, and it is still a very wonderful one. At that time, he can enjoy the treatment of the emperor. There is no emperor yet. All kinds of exhaustion, when it’s not dawn, you will go to court, and you will be scolded as a faint king if you don’t go to court. There are endless memorials every day, etc.).
But if Chongzhen really only has such a bit of air, and he has tested his true heart through this incident, then maybe he really needs to consider the original policy...
So just like that, after everyone tacitly formed a unified opinion, they began to act.
Three days later, the hapless executor, that is, Yi Weizheng (the guard commander) of the palace, was caught by the three brothers (the former executor, the prince left official in the palace who had been beaten by Liu Dabangmao in bed) Sorry, so I can’t continue execution)
Then the newly replaced Yiweizheng, when he went to the brothel again, with his unique taste, was quietly captured by the three brothers and the intelligence department, and after a severe torture, he was only Can all confess, and sign and draw.
After all such evidence was obtained, Yang Shanlu immediately sent someone to rush to send this iron proof to the capital, and next, he wanted to see, what would Chongzhen do
The capital, the imperial palace.
It was already dinner time, but Emperor Chongzhen was still immersed in the imperial case, dealing with endless memorials, and now he was most concerned about the governance of Shanxi... After all, the governance of Shanxi invested all of Yang Shanlu’s energy, but Isn't he also concerned about his heart
(This is a very important experimental field, which can even determine the future policy direction of Ming Dynasty)
Correspondingly, the Shanxi Jinyiwei system changed from sending a secret report every month to once every ten days, including Zuo Maodi's side. Anyway, the Emperor Chongzhen's affairs in Shanxi, that is Mentioned the height of most concern.
But what makes him happy is... The recent news is all good news, just as Jin Yiwei clearly stated in the latest secret report that the current situation in Shanxi has improved significantly. The poor people almost Every household has been assigned to fields, and there are no more refugees on the road... Because everyone can receive relief food, and they are busy farming in their own fields.
Even such a rare sight made this Jinyiwei deputy Qianhu (the highest leader of Jinyiwei in Shanxi) boldly prophesy. As long as this situation continues to be maintained, when the next summer harvest, the people will lay down the grain. There is no need to pay the scary rent (because the land is my own, do I need to pay the rent again?), then you can really have enough food and clothing!
The same is true for Zuo Maodi’s secret report, and as Shanxi’s deputy envoy, he has been by Yang Shanlu’s side, and the memorandum submitted is more detailed. Whatever fights against corrupt officials, fights against the prince, and then can retreat smoothly. Tian Huanmin, he said clearly.
And Zuo Maodi's butt doesn't have to be crooked, and all he said are Yang Shanlu's good things. In summary, the corrupt officials cry, the people laugh, and the situation in Shanxi is greatly improved!
After reading these secret reports, Emperor Chongzhen felt very happy! Even he himself felt that he needed to praise himself... Sure enough, Yang Shanlu didn't miss it at the beginning. If he didn't have the insight and talent at the beginning, how could there be such an exciting scene now
Of course, apart from joy, Chongzhen is still a little bit guilty (this is also due to his character). I still remember that after Yang Shanlu started to govern Shanxi, although he made various guarantees to Yang Shanlu from the beginning, he was facing He was still a little shaken when he was overwhelmingly impeaching his memorials (the so-called trio became a tiger, of course, fortunately he survived) otherwise, where is the current good situation
Including this time, Wang Chengen, the inseparable confidant eunuch who has always served him, is rushing from outside the Qianqing Palace. Even the excitement can be heard outside the door: "The emperor, great joy Ah, great joy! The dividends from the Shibosi Division are here!"
"What!" After the emperor Chongzhen heard this, his eyes brightened with excitement, and he stood up from behind the imperial case... Yang Shanlu's original promise has been fulfilled!
Of course, what Chongzhen didn't know was that the evidence of someone sent by Yang Shanlu was about to arrive! And he is about to make a very difficult choice!
ps bowed and thanked my old friend zz681027 for his reward! For this kind of support, this horse is still codewords at night... In addition, I can tell you a good news. Recently, it is in good shape (it should be because of everyone's enthusiastic support and full motivation)
So now we can keep up with the update, we can restore the previous punctual update at 7:30 in the morning, and apologize to everyone for the irregular update. Of course, it should not be in the future, ha ha. And again, Baima's character is still very good, and it won't be broken during the New Year. (End of this chapter)
