Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 303
Qian Qianyi heard the sound, looked up, and recognized his family members in Changshu, he couldn't help frowning, and told him intuitively that maybe it was related to Zhang Pu.

But he was also a little strange. According to the previous decree, Changshu was not a place under Zhang Pu's inspection. How could he go there?

While thinking about it, on the street, under the gaze of the crowd, someone has already galloped forward, almost rolled and got off the horse, and rushed in front of Qian Qianyi, in a panic, eagerly reported: " Master, Zhang Pu... It was Zhang Pu, that dog official who suddenly came to the Changshu county government office, sealed off the warehouse, and called for manpower. It was aimed at our Qian family. Please go back and deal with it quickly at home. Lost!"

When Qian Qianyi heard that Zhang Pu had gone, he couldn't help being very angry, and at the same time, he was a little confused: "What did Pan Xiuwen, the magistrate of the county, say, is there any official document for verification?"

When Pan Xiuwen became an official in Changshu County, he naturally wanted to meet Qian Qianyi. He will inform the Qian family that he is on the side of the Qian family.

Hearing this, the family quickly replied: "It was Pan Xianzun who sent someone to inform, saying that the emperor's decree had agreed to Wu Xunyan's request. In a short time, we extracted our Qian family's land account books and other related documents, which were aimed at our Qian family..."

"I'm so pissed off that I've been secretly cheated by two juniors!" Before he could finish speaking, Qian Qianyi blew his beard and stared at him, and said angrily, "I thought that Wu Changshi was a wise man, and he was helping him in secret , okay, okay, seeing this old man being dismissed from office, he doesn't pay attention to this old man..."

Seeing him like this, Liu Rushi next to him was a little anxious, afraid that he would get angry again, so he quickly pulled off Qian Qianyi's sleeve, and signaled to him that this was on the street, and there were people watching.

After looking at Liu Rushi and then at the passers-by watching the excitement on the street, Qian Qianyi tried his best to calm down and immediately ordered his servant: "Prepare the boat immediately, I have to rush back as soon as possible!"

After finishing speaking, he looked at Liu Rushi again, and with a rare smile, he stroked Liu Rushi's hand and said, "This matter, I have to go back in person. Go tell Chaozong, and say that I can't I have an appointment, see you another day!"

This time he went out to play, he brought Liu Rushi with him, and Hou Fangyu brought Li Xiangjun with him.Therefore, he has such an explanation.

At this time, Liu Rushi has not yet settled on a name with Qian Qianyi, so it is inconvenient to go with him.However, he also admired Qian Qianyi's literary talents, so he was a little worried about him, so he told him: "Be careful, Mr. has no official position now..."

How can he be looked down upon by the woman he likes? Qian Qianyi immediately interrupted after hearing this: "It's okay, it's a big storm, the old man is here, I don't believe this time, what can I do to the old man!"

After he finished speaking, he was anxious about Changshu, so he didn't say any more, and immediately cleaned up briefly, and hurried to Yangzhoufu Wharf, where there was his own boat, which could go directly down the river to Changshu County.

But when he just arrived at the pier, he heard a voice behind him, turned around and saw that it was Hou Fangyu who had rushed over.Seeing him approaching, he saluted Qian Qianyi immediately, and at the same time said loudly, filled with righteous indignation: "Mr. Yu Shan, Zhang Pu is our enemy, please bring some students along to deal with him together!"

In the farce in Qiuyue Pavilion, both he and Qian Qianyi were dealt with severely by Zhang Pu.After the incident got out, the reputations of both of them were more or less affected.But in this way, the relationship between the two of them became closer.When Hou Fangyu heard the news, he rushed over immediately, intending to deal with Zhang Pu with Qian Qianyi.

In fact, Hou Fangyu also knew that based on his own words, no matter his background or ability, he could not be Zhang Pu's opponent.Only with Qian Qianyi could he avenge the humiliation of Qiuyue Pavilion.Therefore, he didn't even care about Li Xiangjun and rushed over immediately.

Seeing his enthusiasm, Qian Qianyi immediately nodded and said, "Okay, come on board with me!"

Speaking of this, he thought of something, and added another sentence: "After this matter is over, the old man will personally support Chaozong. In the future, you will not be the fourth son of Fushe, and you will lead the Fushe. I believe you have this talent. !"

Hearing this, Hou Fangyu couldn't help but be overjoyed, it was an unexpected joy!So, he immediately thanked Qian Qianyi.

After such a hasty polite exchange, the two boarded the boat and headed straight for Changshu.

Two days later, Qian Qianyi arrived in Changshu, but he didn't show up right away, just like when Zhang Pu first arrived, he hid on the boat and sent people to find out the latest situation.

Soon, someone from the Qian family came and told Qian Qianyi that under the threat of Dongchang, Pan Zhixian and others dared not refuse.Over the past few days, that inspector has personally urged them to go to the local area to inspect the grain fields. The family has been procrastinating, but more than half of the inspection has already been completed.

He also told Qian Qianyi that this Xun Zhang was very cunning, and he would watch it personally, even at the edge of the field. He couldn't do a lot of tricks, and the family was in a hurry, and the third wave of people had been sent to find Qian. Modesty.

Because Qian Qianyi was in a hurry to come back, he missed two groups of people looking for him, but he didn't care about it anymore.After asking about the situation in Changshu in detail, he sneered and said, "Son Zhang Pu, since the old man has already returned, how can I allow you to be arrogant!"

It is true that he is talented and learned. At such an age, it is true that he has experience. Some of the officialdom is even clearer than Zhang Pu.Therefore, it didn't take long for him to think of a way, and immediately said with a sneer: "Little Zhang Pu, if you dare to come to Changshu to find trouble, this time, you will definitely not be able to leave!"

"Mr. Yu Shan, I don't know how to deal with this kid who is so successful and rampant?" Hou Fangyu, who was next to him, couldn't help being overjoyed, and asked hastily.

He also heard the conversation and knew about the affairs in Changshu, but he couldn't think of any solution.

Qian Qianyi had already thought of a way to deal with Zhang Pu, so he was not in a hurry, stroked his beard, and said in a cold voice: "There is no need for any sophisticated tactics, just follow the previous example to deal with Zhang Pu's children. Speaking of which, hehe, Zhang Pu Xiaoer was still famous for this back then, this time, let him have a taste of it!"

"Become famous through this?" Hou Fangyu couldn't understand, and repeated a sentence in a murmur, then suddenly realized, and said immediately, ""The Tombstone of Five People", Mr. Yu Shan said, just follow the example of the past and instigate civil uprisings. Responsibility?"

Qian Qianyi didn't answer, just stroked his beard and nodded with a little complacency.

Thus, a conspiracy against Zhang Pu began.

Soon, in Changshu County, there were rumors circulating in private.

"You don't know, this Xun Zhang is on a mission to collect all the owed taxes. If anyone fails to pay the owed taxes, they will be forced to sell their fields, houses, and children."

"Why not? You don't know, this Zhang Xun was born by a lowly maidservant, and he will do anything to climb up. No matter if he is the same age or a good friend, as long as it hinders him from climbing up, he will not hesitate. betrayed secretly."

"Don't you know? Back then, Zhang Xun was so lowly that he couldn't even get the money for the exam. It was his confidante who gave him his redemption money. Guess what happened, after he won the Jinshi Abandoning his confidante, treating him as if he didn't know him, causing him to go to find his confidante and live on the streets, and eventually die tragically!"

"This time, Zhang Xunyong issued a military order in front of the emperor. Do you understand the military order? If it is not completed, the head will be beheaded. In order to perform in front of the emperor, this Zhang Xunyong promised the emperor that he will definitely send it to the emperor. All owed taxes will be collected. So, if you say he will care whether you have money or not, he will definitely force the common people to sell their sons and daughters to pay back the owed taxes!"

"..."

Whether these rumors are true or not, it is very difficult for the people who usually live in Changshu County and only live in a radius of one or two hundred miles at most.Therefore, many people became worried.

Originally, the mentality of just watching a play changed quietly, and began to become hostile to Zhang Pu and his party, and under the rumors, they further incited their feelings of confrontation.

These are still among ordinary people. If they are said to be ignorant, they will be deceived by these rumors. It seems nothing unusual.

However, rumors began to spread among the literati in Changshu County.However, these rumors have a different focus.

"You don't know, Zhang Xun is exempted from the preferential quota for this inspection. If he finds out, it will not only pay back the owed taxes, but he may also be dismissed!"

"Why, you don't believe me? Have you heard about the Qiuyue Pavilion in Yangzhou? This Xun Zhang doesn't care about the tacit understanding in the officialdom. He is a cruel official. He just went to the land of Fengyue to recite poems and fight against him, so he ran to the spot Arresting people, that prestige, is afraid that others will know that he was born of a lowly maid."

"I've also heard that those officials in Qiuyue Pavilion were dismissed by him. He also remembered those scholars who were present. On the side of administration, literature and administration, their fame was dismissed, saying that they Unworthy to be an official in the future!"

"Yeah, I've heard that too, so if he came to Changshu this time, if he was caught doing things other than Youfang, he would definitely do the same. He is a real cruel official. In order to curry favor with the emperor, Lian Yu Everyone like Mr. Shan dares to damage it, and then ordinary scholars like us will be taken care of!"

"..."

What do readers care most about?It's nothing more than fame.These rumors have tied their fame and fame, even if some scholars don't believe it very much, but it is related to their future, how can they not care about it, of course they would rather believe it or not.

As a result, scholars in Changshu County and even surrounding counties began to worry. Many scholars who were originally just watching dramas also began to change their mentality and became hostile to Zhang Pu and his group.

If these things can be discovered and responded to in time, maybe nothing will happen.

However, Zhang Pu and his party are all foreigners, so they are relatively insensitive to the local conditions.When they find something is wrong, it is already very serious.

"What?" Zhang Pu slapped the table angrily, let out a "snap", and asked loudly, "Is this really the rumor outside?"

The fan servant who came to report nodded and said with certainty: "The real situation may be even more exaggerated than what the subordinates said!"

In the past few days, Jiang Dong has clearly noticed that whether it is the yamen servants or the people he sees on the road, no matter whether they are wearing silk or coarse linen, the way they look at them has changed, and he feels something is wrong. So he talked about it.

Zhang Pu was a little disapproving at first, and he said with certainty: "We have been here for several days, then Qian Qianyi must have heard the news and came here. It is absolutely inevitable that he is playing tricks behind his back. But we are doing things according to orders, and Qian Qianyi How about an idle savage who has lost his official position?"

Jiang Dong was still a little worried, so he sent his plainclothes men out to inquire about the news, only to find out about the situation.

At this time, after Zhang Pu got the confirmation, and after he calmed down for a while, he immediately understood what Qian Qianyi was planning. something happened.

Therefore, he immediately said to Jiang Dong: "This matter must not be left alone. The riots in Suzhou during the Wanli period are a lesson from the past."

Jiang Dong actually didn't know about this matter. First, he was from the north. Second, at that time, he was not from Dongchang, nor was he from the government.But Zhang Pu is very clear, for this reason, he wrote a "Tombstone of Five People" to make himself famous.

After thinking about it, he immediately asked for red paper and began to write the announcement.Jiang Dong watched from the side, and found that Zhang Pu wanted to tell the people and the scholars that the emperor's decree this time stated that the ones to be investigated were more than [-] mu of grain fields.This point is very important.

In the north, Zhang Pu didn't need to write such a notice to tell the emperor's will, everyone in the streets and alleys knew it.But on the Jiangnan side, it is far away from the capital, and some local officials even deliberately blurred the lower limit of [-] mu of grain fields when conveying their intentions.Therefore, the common people didn't know it, and Zhang Pu didn't pay attention to it for a while.

In his opinion, as long as this matter is told to the common people and those scholars, there are definitely only a few people in the south with more than [-] mu of grain fields.And after so few opponents, he wasn't afraid at all.

However, after the notice was posted, the effect was not good.

This time, Jiang Dong sent his men in plain clothes to investigate the situation secretly.

In the end, it turned out that there were rumors saying that this was not true. Zhang Xunyong saw that the situation was not good and was afraid of causing public anger, so he made up this content temporarily. He just wanted to follow everyone's heart and don't fall for him. When.

　I persisted for another month, and updated more than [-] words every day. I am working hard!
