Chapter 294: Scourge the Northwest Gentry
Zhang Yong said again: "Uncle, we will leave the new salt law to the Donglin Party and the salt merchants to fight, and then send Cui Chengxiu to the Lianghuai to serve as the governor of the Lianghuai to control the salt industry. As for the division of taxes and the government and gentry, we will not implement the division of taxes for the time being, but we will not implement the division of taxes for the time being, but it will not be implemented in the Jiangnan period. We will appoint a few officials from the Donglin Party to implement the new policy of the integration of officials and gentry in the northwest. Anyway, this method was thought out by Yang Lian and Zuo Guangfight, so let the Donglin Party and the Northwest gentry fight to the death."
"Good idea!" Wei Zhongxian smiled even more happily, "Yes, just follow Yongwazi's method! Anyway, the northwest land cannot collect any taxes, so it's better to try the new policy. It's not a pity if it fails."
The Donglin Party went to harm the northern gentry. This was something that the Donglin Party loved. The Donglin Party hoped that all the northern gentry would be ruined and they were happy.
When these two heavy shells were thrown out by Wei Zhongxian, all the officials in the capital impeached the Six Gentlemen of Donglin. The Six Gentlemen of Donglin became the Six Gentlemen of Donglin. All the censors demanded that the Six Gentlemen of Donglin be punished immediately and executed by Lingchi. The local gentry also changed the direction, from supporting the Donglin Party to supporting the Nine Thousand Years.
Sun Qifeng from Baoding Prefecture originally collected all the money and wanted to save Yang Lian, but Zuo Guangdou. After receiving the news, all the money raised by those who were originally used to save Donglin Liujunzi was used to build a temple for Wei Zhongxian!
Besides Zuo Guangdou's student Shi Kefa, other Donglin Qunxian all expressed that they would leave apart from the six treacherous slander headed by Yang Lian. The six gentlemen of Donglin, who were originally admired by thousands of people, suddenly became the six treacherous slanderer who were even more stinky than dog shit, and they felt that they were smelly when they passed by.
Of course, the civil servants and gentry group's evaluation of Donglin's six treacherous slander is not all negative, but also positive comments. For example, the new salt law system has been recognized by most officials in the court.
The new salt law is about to be implemented. The officials and salt merchants in the Huai River were as if they felt that the doomsday was coming. Countless salt merchants and officials secretly sent people to Beijing to give gifts to Wei Zhongxian, hoping that Wei Zhongxian could use the power of the Silijian to not approve the new salt law. Other gentry also secretly sent people to give gifts to Wei Zhongxian, demanding that the new salt law be implemented as soon as possible, and hoped that the first batch of salt tickets could be obtained from the Silijian.
As for the implementation of the new policy of placing acres to earn acres, it is temporarily set to implement the land in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces where the land is barren and the drought is low. The officials who implemented the new policy are that the water was too cold, which was just recommended by the Donglin Party to work in Beijing.
I heard that the new policy of digging into the acres was only a pilot operation, and the experiment was in the northwest. Donglin Qunxian was very happy. On the one hand, they set out to restore the reputation of the six gentlemen of Donglin, and on the other hand, they decided to give the eyes to those gentry in the northwest who were not open to the eyes.
"Qian Qianyi alone may not be able to suppress the gentry in the northwest, and he still needs someone to help him." Zhang Yong suggested to Wei Zhongxian.
"Yongwazi, can anyone choose?" Wei Zhongxian asked.
"Lu Xiangsheng, head of the Ministry of Revenue." Zhang Yong said a name.
Wei Zhongxian said: "Isn't this a new Jinshi this year? He is also a member of the Donglin Party."
"Of course, it's best to use people from the Donglin Party to do such dirty things." Zhang Yong said with a sinister smile.
Shui Tailiang is too afraid of death. If you do such a thing that cuts off people's wealth, you may be a little afraid. Let Lu Xiangsheng go to help Shui Tailiang, that is a cruel person! Shui Tailiang dares not cut off people's heads. Lu Xiangsheng can definitely behead all the guys who dare to disobey the imperial edict without saying a word. Anyway, the Donglin Party hopes that the Northwest gentry will be completely destroyed. With the support of the Donglin Party, Lu Xiangsheng has no pressure.
Qian Qianyi entered Beijing, and the little carpenter emperor promoted Qian Qianyi to the Minister of War and the governor of Shaanxi according to the proposal of Eunuch Wei; and Lu Xiangsheng, who was about to send to assist Qian Qianyi, was promoted from the head of the Ministry of Revenue to the Censor of Shaanxi.
Lu Xiang was promoted to Shaanxi Inspector Censor and assisted the new Shaanxi Governor Qian Qianyi. In this matter, Wei Zhongxian and Zhang Yong, the main players of the eunuch party, did not come forward, but Gao Shixin went to meet Lu Xiangsheng.
However, before Gao Shixin had time to find Lu Xiangsheng, Shui Tailiang came to him.
The servant who was too cold to take the gift and went to Gao Shixin's house. Of course, Gao Shixin also accepted the gift from Qian Qianyi without hesitation.
Gao Shixin greeted the guests, and Yang Wan took Yang Ai out from behind the screen and gave Qian Qianyi water to make tea.
"Governor Gao, is this little girl your niece?" Qian Qianyi saw Yang Ai at a glance. When Qian Qianyi saw this little girl with a white jade, he loved it very much.
"It's not my niece, I am the only son in the family. The only brother is still a father-in-law in the palace. Where did I get my niece? This is Miss Yang's maid." Gao Shixin replied.
Qian Qianyi's eyes fell on Yang Ai's face and couldn't even take them away: This little girl is so beautiful. If she grows up, she will definitely be a beauty who is not inferior to Miss Yang!
However, Qian Qianyi did not pay much attention to Yang Ai at this time. On the one hand, this little girl was too young, and on the other hand, Qian Qianyi really didn't want to go to the northwest. Originally, he returned to the capital through the relationship between the Donglin Party and wanted to be a Beijing official, but as soon as he returned to the capital, he received the news that he was appointed as the Minister of War. Qian Qianyi was so happy, but soon couldn't get happy because the Minister of War served as the Shaanxi Provincial Governor.
Although he became a second-rank official, it is not easy to be a good official. Going to Shaanxi is not a popular and spicy drink, but a thing that offends people.
The imperial court dared not implement it in Jiangnan. The Donglin Party in Jiangnan was fiercely opposed; it did not dare to implement it in Huguang, Zhili, Henan and Shandong. Where were the gentry not vegetarians, so it was implemented in Shaanxi and Shanxi. Are the gentry in the northwest eating grass? Qian Qianyi was very afraid of doing this offensive thing.
Hearing that Gao Shixin, the commander of the Jinyiwei, would send a group of Jinyiwei to the northwest to cooperate with the implementation of the new policy of dividing the people into the mu, Qian Qianyi came to Gao Shixin for advice.
Although Gao Shixin is also an eunuch party, his reputation is quite good in the minds of Donglin Qunxian, because Gao Shixin is not the core of the eunuch party in the eyes of the Donglin party members. The real eunuch party is Eunuch Wei, Zhang Yong, Kebaba and a group of civil servants who surrendered to the eunuch party. In the eyes of the Donglin party members, Gao Shixin is no longer a martial artist, and the threat to the Donglin party is far less than that of those civil servants.
After hearing the purpose of the water too cold, Gao Shixin laughed: "Mr. Muzhai, don't worry, go to Shaanxi. With Lu Xiangsheng to help you, I will send someone to help you. But I will dispatch a group of Jinyiwei to accompany you first. I have some things to do in the capital. In about two months, I will also go to the northwest to help you. You can let go and do something big!"
But at this time, Lu Xiangsheng went to meet the legendary most vicious Eunuch Zhang Yongzhang.
"Student Lu Xiangsheng meets Eunuch Zhang!" Lu Xiangsheng bowed to Zhang Yong.
Zhang Yong, who claimed to be extremely vicious, was sitting on the chair of the Grand Master in the Silijian with a golden sword. When he saw Lu Xiangsheng, he quickly stood up from the chair and walked to Lu Xiangsheng. He saw that this was a young little official. Although he was a civil servant, he looked like Xiong Tingbi and Sun Chengzong. He was thick and big and had a fierce appearance. As long as he was wearing armor, he would be a general.
"Jiutai! We have heard of your reputation for a long time. I am lucky to see you today. It turns out that you are both civil and military!" Zhang Yong patted Lu Xiangsheng's shoulder and said with a smile.
