I am the king of the dead
Page 173
The ministers were silent when they heard this.
This is indeed the Great Emperor they are familiar with, ruthlessly.
The disaster of silver coins is even worse than that of Yongle Tongbao.
According to the market price, one silver coin can be exchanged for [-] pieces of Hongwu Tongbao and Yongle Tongbao, and one silver coin can be exchanged for more than [-] pieces of private coins such as flying coins.
His Majesty distributed coins in the Xuan Mansion, converted according to the price, at least 20 silver coins a year, and flowed into the grassland.
It is equivalent to spreading about 4000 million Yongle Tongbao on the grassland in one year, and nearly [-] million privately minted money went in.
Even if the officials don't understand financial affairs, they also know that within two years on the grassland, the people's livelihood will wither.
And there is no blood in the murder, because it is not His Majesty who kills, but the Taijis on the grassland.
Inside the Wenhua Hall, there was silence, only the sound of His Majesty flipping the memorial.
"Xia Qing, go on, what is the third item?" Zhu Qiyu interrupted the silence, and finalized the price of horses in silver coins, which is to continue the preaching of the new horse policy.
How did this stop?
Xia Heng was shocked suddenly, came back to his senses, picked up the memorandum and continued: "The heart of a dog and a sheep is unreasonable to be tamed. He was conferred the title of Gongshi, prepared to guard the western captives, and Gexi begged for the tribute horse. Today Xuanfu set up……"
Zhu Qiyu interrupted Xia Heng's speech and said: "Xia Qing, reward the tribute to show restraint and establish the Xuanfu tribute city. You have already talked about this section."
Xia Heng blinked and looked carefully, only to realize that he was indeed repeating himself.
His Majesty's words determined the life and death of countless people on the grassland, and His Majesty still took it so indifferently.
This made Xia Heng a little distracted.
Zhu Qiyu is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty first, and he has a strategy to weaken the enemy, why not use it?
Xia Heng flipped through the memorial and said, "Oh, oh, the next verse, the next verse, my Daming horse head is tied to the field..."
Xia Heng's third new horse policy, and keeping pace with the times, included raising horses as taxes.
Daming's horse head tax has long been turned into a business of scheming and splitting accounts.
There are management reasons for this, and there is also the background of the era when the population of Ming Dynasty increased and pastures became farms.
Xia Heng's third new horse policy is to limit the framework of the horse head tax, and some people in the province will set up a name and divide the account.
The tax from the horse head tax, after being converted into silver, is used to build the official horse farm.
Translation translation is to spread horses into acres.
Zhu Qiyu nodded and said: "The Ministry of Household Affairs is proceeding with this matter. The chaotic exorbitant taxes plus regular taxes will make the people suffer unspeakably."
Without hesitation, Jin Lian bowed his head and said, "I accept the decree."
Zhu Qiyu sat up straight and said, "Is there anything else? Let's go to court if there is nothing else."
"Your Majesty, I have an instruction book..." Li Binyan was about to speak when Wang Wen pulled him back.
Zhu Qiyu obviously didn't see their small movements. Li Binyan, this water monkey, who is he going to hang on the hook?
Wang Wen sat up straight and stopped Li Binyan. Li Binyan had no idea what he was going to say and how dangerous it was.
Wang Wen said very seriously: "Your Majesty, Liu Chengyou, the procurator of Zhejiang Province, impeached Ningyang Marquis Chen Mao, and at the private ship dock in Zhangzhou, he sought the interests of the public and the interests of the small people, and fought for the interests of the people, and the people suffered. It's unspeakable, and I'm afraid of the heavenly soldiers, so I can't do anything about it."
"However, my minister is still urging Fujian to investigate the matter, and there is no definite news yet."
Zhu Qiyu frowned and asked, "How to impeach?"
Wang Wen took out a notice from his sleeve and said: "The notice of Zhangzhou City to comfort the people is proof."
"However, Your Majesty, the Marquis of Ningyang Zhengnan is away, and the court does not hear the details. I am afraid that there may be some misunderstandings, so I suppress it temporarily."
Zhu Qiyu frowned and said: "Why is it that Zhejiang has heard about the affairs of the inspector in Fujian?"
Zhu Qiyu obviously noticed some problems, he picked up the notice with the double seals of General Zhengnan and Marquis of Ningyang, signed in July of the first year of Jingtai, he held it for a long time and looked at it.
There is something wrong with this seal, it is not exactly the same as the seal that Zhu Qiyu received before.
"Xing'an, come and have a look." Zhu Qiyu handed the notice in his hand to Xing'an.
Xing'an whispered to Zhu Qiyu a few times, then stood up straight.
"This seal is fake, but it's also real." Zhu Qiyu pushed the notice out in his hand, and said to Xing'an, "Go to the Yinshou Supervisor and get the two sets of Ningyanghou's seals and keep them."
Xing'an bowed his head to take orders, and it didn't take long for Ningyang Marquis Yinshou to be taken from the Yinshou Supervisor, and he pressed it on a piece of white paper.
Fujian is a big matter, and Zhu Qiyu dare not treat it lightly. In order to prevent errors in official documents, Li Yongchang went to Fujian for the first time to change a set of seals for Ningyanghou.
Comparing the two, the results are self-evident.
If you don't keep secrets, you will lose your ministers.
Li Binyan was in cold sweat all over his back. Looking at the red seals on the bottom of the two completely different seals, he was dumbfounded, and said in a daze: "Is this Chen Mao using the old seal for private use, or is someone trying to frame Chen Mao?" Mao?"
Zhu Qiyu thought for a long time and said: "It's better to let Fujian investigate according to the affairs of the inspector, and Ningyang Hou is innocent of the pollution in the province."
There are two possibilities for this matter. One is that Chen Mao really set up a private port in Yuegang, Zhangzhou, seeking the interests of the public and the interests of the small people, and using the old seal.
The second is that someone wants to frame Chen Mao, and the possibility is extremely high.
Someone threatened Chen Mao that he would save Song Zhang. Presumably this was what they called, and they couldn't afford the back trick.
But halfway through this set of combined punches, Zhu Qiyu threw Zhao Hui into the prison in advance.
See tricks?Why does he, an emperor, play tricks with you?
Li Binyan was stunned for a long time. He had no idea that the notice was so well-made that it was fake.
In particular, some people dare to privately engrave the seal and ribbon.
Li Binyan immediately noticed the importance of going to Shandong this time to revive Shandong's procuratorate.
For the people in Shandong, this is very important, and for Li Binyan, it is also very important.
He underestimated the lower limit of some people too much. This kind of flagrant false accusation was also sent to the Metropolitan Procuratorate through various relationships!
What does this regard the Metropolitan Procuratorate as admonishing Taifeng Xian?
Zhu Qiyu looked at Li Binyan's appearance and said with a smile: "Li Yushi, this time I am going to Shandong, if necessary, I can mobilize the cavalry to protect myself."
"If you can't do it, you can ask the imperial court for help. Don't force yourself."
Li Binyan dares to do things, dares to speak, and can do things, but he is still a little ignorant of some problems on the route.
As soon as Li Binyan arrived in Shandong and left the capital under the chariot, he would understand that this world is not the world in moral articles.
Just like those family mottos, great benevolent people always look down on the suffering of the people and always cultivate virtue.
However, the appearance of the great benevolent people chasing rent is not written in the family precepts, but taught by precepts and deeds, telling the heirs with practical actions that for farmers who do not pay rent, they should destroy their families.
Li Binyan immediately bowed his head and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. I will die for my country and forget myself, and I will be meticulous."
Zhu Qiyu gave Li Binyan the power to mobilize Tiqi to protect his own safety. Li Binyan's trip to Shandong was by no means peaceful.
To come back alive is Zhu Qiyu's biggest request to Li Binyan.
Chapter 237 If you have anything to say, tell Your Majesty
Li Binyan packed his bags, and he put the first merit card in his package, hoping that this first merit card would bring him good luck.
audacious in the extreme!
Li Binyan is not sure whether he can come back this time, and whether he can succeed in rectifying the Shandong Judiciary up and down, he is just Li Binyan.
Li Binyan did not talk about the court affairs with his family. After a brief farewell, he walked out of the mansion. Waiting outside were Tianzi Tiqi and a group of Jinyi guards. They did not stay long and headed towards the official road in Shandong.
Tiqi took a step ahead and rode quickly towards Mizhou, while Li Binyan left only two Tiqi beside him, driving towards Jinan Mansion.
Li Binyan had just arrived at the post in Jinan Prefecture, and before he could sit still, he heard that someone was visiting.
"Sure enough." Li Binyan exhaled forcefully. The noses of these local officials are really more sensitive than dogs.
Li Binyan smiled and said, "Please."
A passing censor.
The censor was sent by the emperor, and he had to go back in the end. Naturally, he was passing by, and the censor would just shut up if he hit the censor with a lot of money.
Li Binyan invited people to enter the door. The first to enter the door were four porters. They put down the boxes one by one, and then opened them.
There are 36 silver bricks and nine gold bricks neatly placed inside.
Li Binyan swallowed hard, and stared blankly at the gold and silver objects in front of him. He had never seen so much silver in his life!
The visitor stacked the silver bricks and said with a smile: "Li Yushi, I have long heard that the Yushi is known for being upright. I, Zhang Qiyi, the seventh grandson of the Zhang family in Caowen, have met Li Yushi."
"I didn't ask for advice."
Li Binyan has already calculated the value of the meeting gift in front of him. A silver brick is at least ten catties, one catty is 16 taels, and 36 yuan is five thousand,760 taels.
And those nine gold bricks are the big ones, at least 500 taels.
According to the list price, 500 taels of gold are roughly equivalent to 500 taels of silver.
In other words, the so-called Caowen Zhang family spent 4000 taels of silver as soon as they met.
What is this concept?
The total expenditure of Jiuzhongtang in a year is less than 900 taels of silver, and the silver here can support fifteen Yu Shaobao!
Li Binyan sat up straight, and said with a smile: "I am not talented, but I am from Lingzhou, Shaanxi, with strict words."
Cao Wen and Zhang Qiyi thought about it carefully and asked: "Brother Yan Zheng, are you the Li family of Longxi?"
Li Binyan shook his head and said, "No, it's because he came from a military household in the Lingzhou Shouyu Thousand Households, and he has no family background."
He was not from a wealthy family, he didn't hear anything out of the window, he only read the books of sages and sages.
Zhang Qiyi blinked, and hastily bowed his head with an apologetic smile and said: "Zhang is abrupt, and as a Jinshi from a military household, he must be Panjiang Luhai, who is full of talent."
"This is a small gift, not a respect, and I hope Li Yushi will accept it with a smile."
"Zhang heard that it is not easy to live in Beijing Normal University. The food, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea are much more expensive than other places. Food and clothing are all expensive. This small gift is just a gift for meeting. In summer and winter, there will be some Here is a small gift."
"Today, I will clean up the dust for Li Yushi in the Cuiwei Building, and I hope Li Yushi will show respect."
Li Binyan said with a smile on his face, "It's easy to say."
Zhang Qiyi stood up and said with a smile: "Li Yushi is exhausted, so I won't bother you any more. Zhang will leave."
Li Binyan still had a smile all over his face, and said with a smile: "It's easy to go and see you off."
After Zhang Qiyi left, Li Bin stood up, squatted in front of the silver bricks and gold bricks, looked at them for a long time, exhaled, and then stood up.
Money touches people's hearts, the white silver and golden gold are stacked in the box.
What does Li Binyan look like in Jinan Mansion?
Like Li Binyan.
A poor and remote censor who only read sage books and gained fame, has been in Beijing, came to the place, and finally can extort bribes wantonly.
The magistrates saw a lot of people like this, so naturally they exchanged cups and cups, and the atmosphere was extremely warm.
In just one month, Li Binyan met all the famous people in Shandong, and got a clear idea of their temperament and temperament.
What does it feel like?
rotten!
It's a mess from top to bottom!
It looked very much like the lush tree in front of Li Binyan's house, but its trunk had been hollowed out by moths.
Li Binyan has been a corrupt official during this month, and he is on good terms with everyone, no different from those censors in the past.
The only difference is that Li Binyan never stays in restaurants or brothels, even if he is drunk, he has to go back to live in the post.
On the tenth day of March, the bright moon shines in the sky, the sky is bright and clear, and the spring breeze is warm, blowing past the Cuiwei Tower in Jinan, which is full of feasting and feasting.
Wan Guan was the right chief envoy of the Chief Secretary of Shandong during the orthodox period
In the first year of Jingtai, after being recommended, he was promoted to Zuobu Zhengshi. He said with a smile: "Li Yushi, come here, have another drink, and let Qing'er accompany Yushi back to the post later to serve the daily life."
Qing'er is the number one name in Cuiwei Tower, and it is said that even before she left the pavilion, people from Jinan Prefecture's background and scholars flocked to see her beauty.
Li Binyan shook his head again and again and said, "I can't do it, I can't do it, I absolutely can't do it."
"You don't know, the two Tiqi are watching Li every day, just like guarding against thieves. Today, His Majesty, the punishment is severe! In the Jinyiwei Yamen, everyone is a cruel official! Living in the capital is not easy, it is not easy."
