I am the king of the dead

"Are you crazy? Shit!" Wang Tong is a relative. Although he was deposed, he still has force, but he didn't react for a while.

He didn't expect Li Xian to be so crazy.

Li Xian was dragged by several people, but he was still furious and kept kicking forward. He shouted angrily: "Damn you! I am from Henan!"

It can be seen that Li Xian is extremely angry that he can force a scholar to disregard politeness and open his mouth to become a thief.

Li Xian is from Dengzhou, Henan. Since he was a child, he heard his family say that the Yellow River does not support people. After reading and learning, he also knew the reason. His hometown was full of floods, and it was not until the 24th year of Hongwu that he survived.

This is An Sheng's 61 years!Another person came up with the idea of ​​embanking the Yellow River, how could he not be angry?

Li Xian was still cursing: "You son of a bitch, it wasn't your house that was flooded, right? Damn you!"

After Wang Tong knew the reason, he felt a little guilty, and resentfully stopped talking.

Li Xian's clothes were all torn, his sleeves were pulled, and the things in the sleeves were scattered all over the floor.

"Okay, okay, isn't this discussing how to retreat from the enemy?" Sun Zhong also persuaded.

But all eyes are twinkling, which is a good idea.

Wang Tong was defeated in Jiaozhi, and he was expelled from the rank because of abandoning the land. In the 14th year of orthodoxy, Sun Zhong wrote many times to ask for Wang Tong's reinstatement.

His Majesty was extremely dissatisfied with Sun Zhong's repeated meddling in the affairs of the Beijing camp. Whether it was Liu Pu, the commander-in-chief of Guangdong and Guangxi, or Chengshan Bo Wangtong, Zhu Qiyu never approved it.

It's a strange thing that such a thing keeps the cochin, and it can keep it!

Li Xian stood up straight, still angry, picked up the things on the ground, and said angrily: "When you drink water, you'd better be careful, don't choke to death!"

It was agreed and discussed, but the Rongzhengyuan did not discuss any good solution in the end, and it ended hastily.

It was almost dusk when Li Xian returned home and waited in the bamboo forest. He hoped that Yuan Bin would come soon today.

The wind in the bamboo grove was very bleak, and the bamboo leaves were rattling. Li Xian's clothes were disheveled, and there was a scratch on his face. He waited until the sun was about to set before arriving at Yuan Bin.

Yuan Bin turned over from the sidewalk into Cao Guogong's mansion. Seeing Li Xian's appearance, he was amused, and said with a smile: "Li Yushi, a scholar, also fought with others? Is he defeated or won?" ?”

The Advisory Council has been arguing a lot lately. I heard that they even took off their shoes and smashed each other.

Li Xian didn't have time to argue with Yuan Bin at all. He quickly talked about what happened in Rongzhengyuan today, and Yuan Bin's face suddenly became serious.

Li Xian handed over a letter and said: "I wrote today's matter in the letter."

"First, I analyzed Baoding Bo Liang Ping, there may be a problem. Liang Ping has military merits and meritorious service in pacifying King Guangtong's rebellion. Why the rebellion is still a mystery."

"Secondly, I just stopped them from agreeing to destroy the embankment and replace the army with water. However, they have always excluded me in the case of Rongzheng. I am very worried that they will do so."

"I guarantee with my family that everything I told you is true, and if there are any lies, the sky will be struck by lightning."

Yuan Bin seldom saw Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty, official officials of the fifth rank or above, fighting with others, and they were beaten into such a mess without washing up.

"It's a matter of my hometown, so I asked Yuan to direct me, and I must devote myself to this matter." Li Xianzhen was really tired.

At noon, when he heard that His Majesty had personally conquered, he burst into tears with joy. In the afternoon, when he heard such a heartless thing, he was overjoyed and deeply saddened. It was not easy for him to stand still.

Yuan Bin took the letter, and under the letter, there was a copy of today's Councilor's Policy Statement.

Whether Li Xian's words are credible can be compared with the information sent by Zhu Wengui.

Zhu Wengui and Li Xian didn't know each other at all. If they both lied and lied in the same way, it would only prove that they deserved to die.

Yuan Bin thought carefully for a while and looked at Li Xian's anxious look, and said with relief: "Li Yushi, don't worry, your majesty never moves without authorization. Think about the textbooks your majesty read in the lecture hall. What a stupid pig can think of, can His Majesty not think of it?"

"You must know that Xu Yushi blew up the ice in the Hetao. His Majesty gave a high degree of affirmation and made a rule. Your Majesty is well aware of the harm of the Yellow River."

Li Xian was obviously flustered, and Yuan Bin's words made Li Xian heaved a long sigh of relief, and said with a smile on his face: "Ah, yes, Your Majesty is wise, a few idiots can think of it, and His Majesty naturally thought of it."

"I'm really a mediocre person. Alas, they won't let me participate in Rongzheng affairs from now on."

Yuan Bin asked again: "Wang Ji asked your majesty what you mean by dividing the troops. What do you think your majesty means by dividing the troops?"

Li Xian thought about it for a long time and said: "There are more than [-] seedlings in Huguang entering the mountain. If there is chaos, the ground in Huguang will be devastated. Your Majesty marched into Huguang. Naturally, he hopes that the Nanya will fail to follow the principles and Huguang will not be in chaos."

"Your Majesty, the people rule the world for the sake of the country, and the care of the soul is the only thing in mind."

Yuan Bin said with a smile: "Well, since you know everything, why worry?"

Li Xian nodded, what Yuan Bin said made sense.

Yuan Bin collected the letters and political reports, and said quite seriously: "This is a big matter, I'd better go and find out, so I can inform His Majesty in advance. As for the matter of Baoding Bo Liang Pang, I'll inquire carefully and talk about it later."

Yuan Bin moved around a few times, then left Cao Guogong's mansion, and went straight to the Huitong Hall.

Li Xian was in a better mood, and when she returned to the backyard, Yuniang looked at Li Xian's figure and said with a smile: "The official is back?"

But when Yuniang saw Li Xian's appearance, there were still a few bloodstains on his face, dirt on his body, and his clothes were messy and torn in some places, she flicked her sleeves and said quite dissatisfied: "And Where are you going to have fun? Got scratched by a girl?"

"Still saying you love me, talking nonsense."

Yuniang is an oiran who has not left the court in Fengyuechang. She grew up playing Xiaoyanhualiuxiang. Can she not know about this injury and how she got this appearance?

It must be the snatching of the women in the brothel, and there is a lot of trouble.

Yuniang's words were a bit sour and sad. Firstly, Li Xian went out to find flowers and ask willows because she was such a beautiful woman at home. Second, what Li Xian said in the past was all hypocrisy.

Li Xian picked some important things and explained the scratches on her face. Yuniang widened her eyes and said in disbelief: "I am a woman and everyone knows that Mo Daoshi has one eye and provokes the Yellow River." The world is against each other, even Yuan Ji Zhizheng Hunzhu knows that the Yellow River cannot break through."

"They are committing crimes!"

Only then did Yu Niang realize that she had misunderstood, but she was even more horrified. Who could make such a move?

If you don't go to the eighteenth level of hell after death, could it be that Lord Hades is blind?

That is the livelihood of tens of millions of people, plagues, floods, and the withering of the people all over the world.

But Li Xian packed his clothes and said with a smile: "You have said that you are a woman, don't worry, your majesty is an unworldly hero, and there will be no good end for ghosts and ghosts. There is no such thing as conspiracy and tricks use."

After Li Xian tidied up, he lit up the candle lamp and started writing.

"What are the officials writing?" Yuniang looked at what Li Xian had written, and asked suspiciously, "Seventeen questions from the Haoyou Family?"

"I am in charge of the Southern Yamen Household Department Yamen. The financial affairs here are different from the Beiya Yamen. I have seen many phenomena, and I know the problems in my heart, but I don't have a definite answer."

"I'm afraid I don't know the answer, but I still have to write down this question. Even if His Majesty never forgives me, this question must be solved, right?"

But Yu Niang said indifferently: "Your Majesty, who only listens to the officials' opinions, is the best person in the world. He has a degree of relaxation. If you have meritorious service, His Majesty should forgive you."

"And there is Xu Youzhen, who is a great talent. Didn't His Majesty forgive him? His Majesty's temperament, I am afraid that you must sacrifice your life to make atonement."

Li Xian didn't answer, he knew His Majesty's hatred for second ministers and thieves, isn't Ling Chi Yuan specially set up for second ministers and thieves?

It is a great blessing for him to be happy.

Yuan Bin had already returned to the Huitong Hall, sat with Yue Qian and Ji Duo, studied Li Xian's information, and then took out Zhu Wengui's information, comparing each other for a long time.

"Do you think that the two of them collude to deceive us for the purpose of conspiring against each other?" Ji Duo asked with some doubts.

Yue Qian shook his head and said, "Is it worth Li Xian's life to usurp a government without the slightest dictatorship? I oppose this presumption of guilt."

Yuan Bin closed his eyes for a long time, and carefully recalled Li Xian's events at that time. He opened his eyes and said, "I don't think what Li Xian said was a lie. To tell you the truth, at the beginning, King Jili married Yibei as a slave. When the chief played the huqin, I also had this hesitant and angry look, and I don't think he seems to be a fake."

How can I pretend to be angry, confused, ashamed, ashamed of my hometown, and wishing to kill someone?

Following Yuan Bin's few words of relief, Li Xian regained his composure. After his expression eased, he was slightly hopeful, but still fearful. How to disguise such complicated emotions?

Li Xian is a civil servant, and the best thing about a civil servant is his acting skills, but Yuan Bin doesn't think this can be pretended.

With this acting skills, Li Xian can still be an official for 19 years, and he is only a patrol censor so far?

"If you think Li Xian is trustworthy, just raise your hand." Ji Duo said.

Ji Duo didn't raise his hand, he was extremely distrustful of civil servants, but he said: "Although I don't think Li Xian is credible, but because of the wrong information, His Majesty's crime, I am also guilty."

He continued to speak and said: "This is a big matter, so please pass the news to Shandong, and ask Your Majesty to make a decision."

"Then I will find a way to get through the official road to Huguang, especially the post road. I will take charge. Commander Yue is in the Huitong Hall. Yuan Bin, you have to keep an eye on Li Xian and Zhu Wengui."

"I'll take care of the matter of going to Huguang."

Li Xian gave a few letter cards, which can be used as a guide to Huguang.

Is this a sign that there are people in the court who are good at handling things?

Chapter 342 Merchant ship tax draws one out of ten, and another four points are deducted for silver

Zhu Qiyu's car had already arrived in Jinan, but due to some historical reasons, Zhu Qiyu did not stay in Jinan Prefecture.

It's not that Zhu Qiyu doubts the loyalty of Jinan Mansion, but that Yan Mansion has a special feeling for Jinan.

When Emperor Xuanzong quelled the rebellion of the Han Palace, he passed by Jinan Mansion, but he never stopped, and went all the way to Le'an.

Because there was a ruthless person in Jinan Mansion, Tie Xuan.

Tie Xuan was a courtier of the Jianwen Dynasty. During the Battle of Jingnan, Tie Xuan defended Jinan alone.

When Tie Xuan was guarding Jinan City, he played a trick on Zhu Di.

Three months after Jinan was besieged, Tie Xuan sent someone to feign surrender and invite Zhu Di to enter the city.

At this time, Zhu Di was full of ambition, thinking that he had destroyed the enemy's will to resist. As a result, Tie Xuan set up a thousand catty gate at the city gate, and when he was waiting for Zhu Di to enter the city, he smashed Zhu Di to death.

But this thousand-jin gate hit Zhu Di's horse's head, and Zhu Di changed his horse and hurried back, so he escaped a catastrophe.

Yan's army became angry and continued to attack the city, but Tie Xuan put Zhu Yuanzhang's portrait and spiritual tablet on the top of the city to prevent the bombardment of Yan's artillery.

Yan's army had no choice but to retreat in the end.

It wasn't until the first year of Yongle, after Zhu Di proclaimed himself emperor, that he sent a large army to encircle Jinan Mansion, designed to capture Tie Xuan alive, and escorted him to Nanjing City.

Zhu Di persuaded him to surrender several times, and finally Zhu Di met Tie Xuan in person and said: "The Jianwen dynasty was penetrated by Zhu Di, and the whereabouts of Zhu Yunqi, the common man of Jianwen, are all unknown. Why do you, a subject, persist?"

But Tie Xuan, who was kidnapped back, cursed loudly, and Zhu Di, in a rage, executed Tie Xuan Lingchi to death in the city.

Why is Zhu Di so angry?

As someone who immediately conquered the world and won the throne, he could even get the head of a bandit far away in the sky.

Is there anything in this world that Zhu Di can't get?Tie Hyun told him there was.

Since then, no emperor of the Ming Dynasty has ever set foot in Jinan Mansion.

Of course, the reason Zhu Qiyu gave was that the emperor's entry into the city would disturb the local area, so he stopped.

This reason is the same as the reason that Emperor Xuanzong did not enter the Jinan Mansion when he quelled the rebellion of the King of Han.

Shandong bureaucrats such as Pei Lun, the chief minister of Shandong, Li Binyan, the governor of Shandong, Tao Jin, the commander of Mizhou Shipping Department, Tang Xing, the commander of Jinyiwei, and other Shandong bureaucrats had prepared a grand welcome ceremony, but in the end it was nothing.

Zhu Qiyu received the memorial from Yue Qian and others, including all the documents, and being able to act so unscrupulously in Yingtian Mansion proved that Yue Qian and the others had established a firm foothold in Nanjing City.

"Uncle Baoding may not have rebelled because of resentment as Hu Shangshu guessed." Zhu Qiyu said.

Chen Mao once wrote a letter about all things in Fujian. Liang Ping was not a man without a king, father, disloyalty and filial piety. He fought with the army for many years, made many military exploits for the Ming Dynasty, and also contributed to the suppression of the rebellion of King Guangtong. Why did he rebel?

After reading the information, Yu Qian frowned and said, "Did they kill Liang Ping, the general officer of Huguang?"

"It's because Yue Qian and the others don't accept them at night, and they didn't know until Xiangyang." Zhu Qiyu put aside the matter of Huguang.

He picked up another letter and said sharply: "To the point of no conscience!"

The Yellow River is an aboveground river. Its water surface is as high as the Kaifeng Iron Tower. Once the embankment breaks, the dragon will change its course. In the North China Plain, the dragon will sway its tail, and the whole north will not be peaceful.

Digging the Yellow River, using water to replace soldiers, has been tried by people throughout the dynasties.

When Liu Xiu arrived in Handan, the clan Liu Lin proposed to dig the Yellow River to stop the pursuers, but Liu Xiu disagreed.

Du Chong dug the Yellow River and went all the way south. Song Gaozong Zhao Gou was ecstatic and appointed him as the prime minister to lead the defense in Nanjing. Du Chong surrendered directly when the Jin soldiers went south.

During Jin Aizong's time, the Mongolian army besieged Kaifeng. Jin Aizong condemned Kaifeng's mansion and Yan Majin said "the population is tens of thousands, and the river and water are saved to defend the capital." However, their conscienceless behavior did not succeed. , Ma Jin and others were all killed, and there were no two 300 people who were strong enough to rebel."

In the 24th year of Hongwu, Emperor Gao did build embankments on a large scale, but it did not mean that the Yellow River was flooded, and it disappeared.

In fact, there are records of breaches in Kaifeng Mansion in the second year of Yongle, the eighth year of Yongle, and the 14th year of Yongle, and Kaifeng City became a city of fish and turtles.

But fortunately, the imperial court was still there, and all prefectures and counties were there. They organized the people several times to build river embankments on a large scale.

Even if Zhu Qiyu didn't expect it, Yu Qian would remind His Majesty how to deal with it.

Yu Qian said with a smile: "The forwards of the Bravery Battalion of the Siyong Regiment Battalion have deployed defenses along the Yellow River, and at least with a little mobilization, the people will spontaneously guard the embankment. As long as the commanding officer sends out orders, there will naturally be someone to guard them day and night." .”

"At least ten thousand people are needed to dig the Yellow River's dams. It is impossible to hide the spies that will not be accepted overnight. If they are broken up into wholes, scattered all over Henan, and then gathered in one place, if the rebels have this kind of organizational ability, they will not There will be so many jokes."

Yu Qian has been the governor of Henan, and he has also built the Yellow River dams. The people's will, whoever digs the Yellow River is not an enemy of all the people in Henan and the Lianghuai area?

Moreover, the [-] troops of the Brave Battalion will stay in Henan and organize local guards to help defend. The Yellow River cannot be said to be safe, but whoever touches it will die.

"What about Xuzhou?" Zhu Qiyu looked at Xuzhou on the map.
