On July 5th in the 25th year of Jiajing, Tang Long was involved in the concubine by saying that he had no choice but to let him go, begging to leave. Sejong angrily called him Lao Wangjun, ordered to cut his job for the people, and died 30 miles away from the capital.
Lu Bing was deeply saddened when he heard that Tang Long had been dismissed as a citizen and died within 30 miles of leaving the capital.
It is conceivable how painful and chilling Tang Long was on the 30-mile journey out of Beijing. Tang Long learned well and was known as a talented minister for a time. He also wrote "The Collection of Fishermen". Lu Bing and Tang Long worked together and knew each other for many years. He had done his loyal duty for the country all his life, and finally ended up like this.
After Tang Long's death, his son edited Tang Ruji to tell him that his father did not deceive the emperor. The Emperor Jiajing's emperor restored the official, gave Shaobao and posthumous posthumous title.
Tang Long was first sacked by Emperor Jiajing's anger on the grounds of his old age and Wangjun. Then he died in desolation outside Beijing, and then Emperor Jiajing gave him a posthumous posthumous posthumous officer as his restoration officer.
This series of events made Lu Bing secretly sigh that Emperor Jiajing was really confused by Xiu Xianxiu!
Lu Bing is right. Emperor Jiajing is now fully focused on cultivating the Tao. On August 9th, 25th year of Jiajing, Emperor Jiajing once again named Tao Zhongwen as "Shenxiao Zifu, Fan Baoguo, Fan Baoguo, Propaganda, Zhenfa, Truth, Loyalty, and Filial Piety. Bingyi Zhenren", in charge of Taoism.
There are even Shang Duanming and Gu Kexue, both of which were brought by the Ministry of Industry, and they were added to the Ministry of Etiquette for their work in smelting elixir.
This makes how many insightful people stun their wrists secretly, shouting absurdity!
Lu Bing was heartfelt to the death of Tang Long. Not to mention that the two had a deep personal relationship. From a political point of view, Tang Long's death was also a great loss for Lu Bing.
Tang Long is one of Lu Bing's very important allies, and the friendship he fought side by side on the battlefield. In addition, Tang Long contacted Lu Bing and dozens of officials who were close to Lu Bing. They were all solid backing for Lu Bing. Now that Tang Long died in such an aggrieved state, it also created a gap between Lu Bing and those officials. For Lu Bing, this was truly a disaster.
There are not many Da Ming civil servants who are willing to deal with Jin Yiwei. Therefore, these officials are one of Lu Bing's most important foreign aid groups apart from those civilian officials who have handles in Lu Bing's hands.
Tang Long's death broke the connection between Lu Bing and the Northern Army. Since then, in the eleventh year of Jiajing, Lu Bing's influence in the Northern Army has been lost.
Now that Emperor Jiajing ignores the political affairs, he is also cultivating the moodiness, rewards and punishments are all in the mood. The one who opposes him to cultivate the Taoism is the Nenchen, and the one who supports him is the competent official. After Lu Bingjin advised him several times, Emperor Jiajing was even alienated from him. Such a situation made Lu Bing very worried.
However, he hasn't been able to figure out any way to admonish Emperor Jiajing, but Emperor Jiajing is advocating it again!
On July 23, the 26th year of Jiajing, Emperor Jiajing received 24,000 Taoist priests from Bingyi’s Tao Zhongwen.
In August, he was awarded Tao Zhongwen to enter the Guanglu Doctor Zhuguo, and was also a bachelor's salary, and his son was Shangbao Sicheng.
Tang Long passed away and Lu Bing fell out of favor. This series of things seemed to be the fuse, and many people who could not bear it seemed to have seen the opportunity to deal with Lu Bing.
…
Just when Lu Bing was having a headache for this series of things, another thing touched his eyes.
Lu Bing and the Wucheng Soldier Ma Si Xicheng Soldier Ma Si deputy commander Guo Ming had old days, and Guo Ming was in charge of the workshop of Lu Bing's house. When he met the stone, he had also dealt with each other.
After Lu Bing made his fortune, Guo Ming would give him a gift every New Year's Day. Lu Bing always had a good impression of him.
This Guo Ming originally had friendship with Master Lin Fu, and it was because of Master Lin Fu's promotion that he became the deputy commander of the sixth rank. But later Master Lin Fu was stripped of his status because of the Japanese pirates invading Guangzhou. Guo Ming also stayed on the same spot, unable to get another promotion.
However, Guo Ming is also content. He only patrols the streets every day to make sure of the security and fire prevention tasks in his jurisdiction. The rest of the time is to eat and drink with his brothers and have fun, but he also has a happy life.
In addition to the court’s salary, the monthly income of the soldiers and horses of the Yamen relied on the filial piety on the street.
On the ground in this capital city, no one dared to search too much. Who knows whether a small merchant or hawker has a similar relationship with the officials in the court? What's more, they are all in the neighborhood. I was so anxious. I really found a way to tell me. I didn't look good on the face. However, the people at this yamen have to eat too! Relying on the royal court's salary, it is really difficult to support the family. If you want some money, you should pay attention to the people in the streets and alleys in the end.
Therefore, between these people on the street and the people in front of the yamen, there is a little tacit understanding and rules in private.
The people on the street, regardless of what they are doing, take some silver taels every month to make offerings to each yamen. Think of it as buying peace for yourself, and make the relationship more harmonious.
The people in the yamen, if you can carry it around, you can take care of it, and if you can handle things more comfortably, you will have face on both sides, so there is nothing wrong with each other.
However, there are so many yamen in this capital! The amount of money that people who mix on the street can get every month is also limited. Since they can't be squeezed to death, then to a six-rank yamen such as the Wucheng Soldier Masi, there are only a few three melons left. .
Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division was originally called Beijing Soldiers and Horses Commanding Department, and was established in the second year of Yongle. After the Yongle Emperor established the capital of Beijing, he set up the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division.
The Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, namely the Central, East, West, South and North Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Command Division, is the sixth grade Yamen. Each has one commander, four deputy commanders, and one official. Responsible for public security, fire prohibition, and clearing the streets of Yangqu.
Therefore, it is a good idea to load some goods to the soldiers and horsemen of the city every month, although there are not many. The soldiers of the Ma Siyamen wandered and messed up in the streets every day, and the duties assigned by the court had to be done with the cooperation of big guys. Naturally, they could not be insatiable and make the people restless. Therefore, the amount of filial piety given on weekdays is not much.
When the money is in hand, first hand over two levels to the commander, the four deputy commanders to one level, and the other half level, and the rest is equally divided among the brothers who run errands below.
In addition, if there is a dispute or an accident in any of the houses on weekdays, please ask someone from the Bing Ma Si Yamen to mediate or deal with it, and then thank you as appropriate. Most of them are to have a drink, give a little bit of silver, or wrap some gifts or something.
Guo Ming, a sixth-grade official in the capital, added his salary and filial piety in a month, and he had only a small amount of pocket money in his hand. Therefore, he often laments, it is not as good as the seven-grade Sesame Officer below.
However, Guo Ming's good days will soon come to an end.
The original commander of the Xicheng Soldiers and Horses was old and dedicated, and a new commander of the Xicheng Soldiers and Horses was transferred from Yunnan.
