What's the big deal if two sons have different political views
Apart from his talent and character, Zheng Boming did nothing to make Zheng Boming happy. The father and son also had political disagreements, just like him and his fifth younger brother. They got along well in daily life, but when it came to family If you don’t want to develop your own life, your life ideals and the cultivation of your disciples, you will quarrel and basically spend your whole life in fighting spirit.
But no one said that he wanted to kill the other party. It was just a difference of opinion. Some people like to eat cabbage, while others just like to eat radish. Does he have to demand that everyone in the world like to eat cabbage like him
Neither can my brothers.
Patriarch Zheng definitely couldn't bear this tone in his heart, if his wife and nephew did something, and Zheng Dalang didn't know, he wouldn't let him go;
If Zheng Dalang joins forces with his wife and nephew, he will not let the other party go. In his opinion, his good son has been provoked by the Sun family.
The county magistrate Guo, who is also a member of an aristocratic family and knows a lot about the Zheng family, can imagine what the patriarch Zheng is thinking. It is impossible for Yin Li, the official in charge of the case, to not know.
He is still His Majesty's confidant.
It's just that it's hard to find evidence for this matter. I'm afraid that even if the bandits are wiped out, there will be no evidence that patriarch Zheng ordered people.
But sometimes it is the paradox that is the most tormenting and emotionally draining.
Patriarch Zheng would think, you have no evidence to prove that I did it, but you have been suspicious of me, is it because you don't trust me
The Sun family would think, your two sons killed each other, but you used my son to vent your anger, and he was tied up as soon as he left Xingyang. If the Zheng family didn't do it, they wouldn't believe it if they were beaten to death.
Man Bao was confused, and asked: "Is it really Patriarch Zheng who did it? Why didn't he move away a little bit before doing it? Isn't this actively arousing suspicion?"
County Magistrate Guo said, "Maybe Chief Zheng also thinks so?"
Man Bao was dumbfounded, and shook his head after being stunned for a while, "No, all of this is speculation. If you are so suspicious of people's hearts, then there are many possibilities. How can the case be so sincere? You have to find evidence, right?"
County magistrate Guo looked her up and down, "Your Majesty Zhou is wise, such suspicion of people's hearts can't be used as the standard for us to judge the case, even people like patriarch Zheng know it, but how many people in this world can really stop guessing people's hearts? Among them, how many of them can not be doubted by their own guesses?"
The county magistrate Guo said affirmatively: "Except for a few ministers in the court, I am afraid that even His Majesty can't do it?"
That's right, the emperor really couldn't do it, so he couldn't hold back to discuss with Wei Zhi whether the Zheng family was going to turn against the Sun family.
He had only met Yin Li this morning and found out about Sun Zhi's disappearance.
Then he was sprayed by Wei Zhi, he said: "Your Majesty should order the local officials to solve this case as soon as possible and wipe out the bandits, especially the latter. If the bandits are allowed to run rampant, not only the local people will panic, but also the merchants passing by. , If things go on like this, even if the business routes are not cut off, it will also hit the merchants along the way."
This is a major event involving people's livelihood and taxation. You, an emperor, still have time to eat melons and gossip here, and is it a good thing that bandits appear outside Xingyang
Do you want to be more careful and worry about things like Zheng's private raising of trilogy
The world has only been stable for decades
Now in many places, the powerful clans are still far above the imperial court. If they want to rebel against you, although there is a small probability of success, it is more than enough to grab a few cities and play for a few years, okay
The emperor was scolded by Wei Zhi, and finally got down to business, while ordering the local officials in the Xingyang area to conduct self-examination, they must wipe out the bandits and ensure the safety of the people and business travelers along the way;
On the one hand, he issued an order to appease the Sun family.
Then he turned his head to report on Qizhou's investigation.
Old Master Tang went to the palace to report.
The situation in Qizhou does not seem serious on the surface, but once it is investigated and thought deeply, the situation is very bad.
When the former dynasty fell, the people were displaced, and many people left their hometowns to flee. Some villages even had no one in the whole village, and some villages had only one or two households. This left a large area of uncultivated land. land.
Plus the people who died in the war...
Anyway, at the beginning of the establishment of the Great Jin Dynasty, large tracts of farmland were deserted.
Most of these lands were taken as state-owned by the imperial court, and a small part was occupied by local clans who did not leave, and were directly marked as their own land.
Some people could not produce the land certificates and were still nationalized, some bribed officials and subordinates to supplement the land certificates, and some directly forged the land certificates.
However, most of the land was taken by the imperial court and local government offices.
Then the imperial court began to recruit refugees. Those who were exiled to the local area generally would not be sent back to their hometowns, and they were directly collected in the local area. The imperial court divided the fields, provided good seeds, borrowed farm tools on credit, and organized slaves to build houses for them, etc...
This divided a batch of land, and the rest was divided into fields for the annual population, and the rest was still in the hands of the local government.
Some of these fields are being cultivated by prisoners sentenced by the yamen, as well as hired short-term and long-term laborers, but most of them are abandoned there.
Not long after ascending the throne today, the imperial court once issued a policy in order to prevent the land from being too wasteful. People who have already divided their fields and lost their land, as well as refugees can reclaim wasteland and cultivate it for more than three years. It can be used as his permanent land...
You can also use money and food to buy land with the court, but the Yongye field under the individual name of the land buyer should not exceed 20 mu.
In other words, only good people with less than 20 acres of Yongye land can buy land from the local government.
The land in the capital city and Yongzhou was almost bought and sold, especially the land in Gongzhong, not only to be distributed to the good people of Xincheng Ding, but also to be used as a job field for the imperial court.
Further outside, there is more land in Shangzhou, Fengzhou and Qizhou.
The Zheng family and Hejian County King bought a large amount of land from the governor's mansion of Qizhou with the names of a large number of tenant farmers under their command, and then transferred the land from the tenant farmers to their own names.
And Li Shangshu waited for a period of time before reselling it to the Ministry of Households, thus achieving the final achievement.
However, the Zheng family controlled a large piece of land in Qizhou after changing hands.
And there are many people who operate like this with the Zheng family.
And this is just one of the problems. Another big problem is that the price the Zheng family bought these fields was less than one-third of the price when the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Qizhou Governor's Office consulted.
Even Li Gong, King of Hejian County, spent more money on buying eight hectares of land than the Zheng family bought ten hectares of land.
Of course, the governor of Qizhou also had his reasons, and the court did give him this right. He is guilty or innocent, unless there is evidence that he benefited from the Zheng family.
However, people from Yushitai and the Dali Temple of the Ministry of Justice searched for a long time and found no evidence. The land purchase money of the Zheng family and Hejian County King did go into the public treasury of the governor's mansion and was not intercepted.
At the beginning, the steward sent by the King of Hejian to buy the land directly used the post of the King of Hejian to oppress others, and did not give bribes, so the governor of Qizhou said very confidently that he did not ask the King of Hejian for bribes. How could he want to bribe the Zheng family
He is innocent!
Bai Shan and Man Bao said: "Your Majesty is very angry, and asked me to draft an edict to summon the governor of Qizhou to come to Beijing. Now that he has left Beijing, he will be able to meet the governor of Qizhou in a few days."
