Zhang Shicheng's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he immediately yelled, "Zhu Yuanzhang, you are a despicable villain, this villain?" Although he was determined to die, he did not expect that Zhu Yuanzhang would harm the people of Suzhou. This time in the Battle of Pingjiang, the people of the whole city were against

He never leaves

, Accompanying him for a whole year of hunger, Zhang Shicheng kept this friendship in mind, and naturally he was unwilling to let the people of Suzhou suffer because of him again. After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's extremely despicable punishment, the former hero was so angry that he could not bear it.

He kept yelling and swearing.

Zhu Yuanzhang made this decree and let out a heavy breath. Suzhou has always been rich. This time, the people of Suzhou, Hangzhou and Huzhou contributed the most to attack Zhang Shicheng. Not counting this, he also learned that Zhang Shicheng had been arrested.

After only two days, many people in Suzhou not only talked about the various benefits of Zhang Shicheng, but also often gathered together to whisper. This made Zhu Yuanzhang very angry, and he felt a slight desire to punish the people of Wu in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

Li Shanchang watched for a long time, and naturally he could see that Zhang Shicheng would not survive, but he did not expect that Zhu Yuanzhang, who always cherished the people very much, would attack the people in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. He wanted to go forward and say a few nice words, but when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang's face was filled with anger,

Angry, he moved his lips and dared not make a sound. He could only shake his head and sigh, giving his will.

Zhang Shicheng not only cursed, but also kept scolding Zhu Yuanzhang for being despicable and shameless. However, Zhu Yuanzhang looked like he was smiling and not angry at all. Li Shanchang was the only one in the study. He did not dare to come forward to persuade him. Naturally, no one said anything. Mao Xiang rushed in without saying a word.

He grabbed Zhang Shicheng and left, but he still heard Zhang Shicheng shouting and cursing along the way.

"Humph, you want to die, but I won't let you die?" Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly, squinting his eyes and looking at Zhang Shicheng who was gradually going away.

"Listen, please keep an eye on him?"

"Yes!" Several guards responded with clasped fists.

After the guard left the study, Zhu Yuanzhang felt very tired. He waved his hand and said, "Master Xiangguo, can you help me with the tax increase in Jiangsu and Zhejiang?"

Li Shanchang responded, shook his head and left the study.

That night, Zhang Shicheng finally hanged himself while others were unprepared.

On a mountain peak outside the capital, Wang Baobao, dressed in white, stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the soldiers at the foot of the mountain. Tens of thousands of Mongolian tents stretched for dozens of miles, groups of war horses, hundreds of thousands of

The army surged back and forth, turning this small mountain into a lively place.

Wang Baobao had his hands behind his back, and the strong wind blowing in front of him blew his white clothes, but he was completely unaware of it, as if the howling cold wind was not enough to make him feel cold at all.

He looked at a mountain peak in the distance like a giant. Although it was far away, he could vaguely see it from here. The three peaks of the mountain were connected like a giant dragon. The mountain, water and city were integrated into one, majestic and majestic.

It is known as "Zhongshan Dragon and Pan, Stone City Tiger". It is said that in the late Han Dynasty, Moling Lieutenant Jiang Ziwen died here after chasing thieves. Wu Sunquan of the Three Kingdoms built a temple on Zhongshan.

, because it was renamed Jiang Mountain. Because the purple shale exposed on the hillside shone golden light under the sunlight, it was renamed Zijin Mountain in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Wang Baobao has been hearing about the name of this mountain in the past few years, especially recently.

A man named Zhu Yuanzhang at the foot of the mountain killed a man named Chen Youliang with an army of 200,000, and the person who helped him was a brother named Xiao Yun.

A few words about Zhang Shicheng

Every year on the 30th day of the seventh lunar month, there is a folk custom of offering sacrifices to Ksitigarbha. On this night, old Suzhou people will put dots of incense candles at the door of their houses, commonly known as "burning dog shit incense". "Dog shit incense" is also known as "burning dog shit incense".

It's called "Jiu Si Xiang", and "Jiu Si" is the homophonic pronunciation of Zhang Shicheng's nickname "Jiu Si". These incense were burned to him by the people of Suzhou, openly as a sacrifice to "King Zang", and in secret as a sacrifice to "King Zhang".

According to local chronicles, after Zhu Yuanzhang captured Suzhou, because the people of Suzhou had supported Zhang Shicheng, he imposed heavy taxes on Suzhou in retaliation. By the 26th year of Hongwu (1393), Suzhou accounted for 1% of the country's cultivated land, and the taxes imposed

Liang Jing

Accounting for 9.6% of the country's total, "one county can even rival the major counties in Jiangbei". In addition, he also moved 140,000 wealthy households in southern Jiangsu to Linhao, the central capital of Anhui, including a large number of celebrities such as Gu Ying and Yang Ji.

, there were countless tragedies including family destruction and death.

It was also because of Zhang Shicheng that Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely distrustful of Suzhou. During his 31 years in office, he replaced 30 Suzhou prefects. He was even more jealous of the Suzhou gentry who had eyes but not "Zhu" and would not miss any opportunity to attack. Hongwu

In the 7th year (1374), Wei Guanyu, who was the prefect of Suzhou at the time, built a memorial hall in the former residence of Zhang Shicheng's palace (i.e. the emperor's palace).

Abandoning the foundation) built government offices and dredged rivers. When Zhu Yuanzhang learned about it, he was immediately furious. On the grounds of "promoting and destroying the king's foundation", he killed Wei Guan and a large number of Suzhou literati. Among them, the great poet Gao Qi, one of the "Four Heroes of the Early Ming Dynasty"

, because he wrote a "Shang Liang Wen" that was suitable for the occasion, he was taken to Nanjing by Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial edict, cut in half, and then sawed into eight pieces.

According to research, Suzhou's taxation was second to none in the country from the death of Zhang Shicheng until the Zhengde and Jiajing periods of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhengde, Lu Shen, a native of Shanghai during the Jiajing period, calculated the taxes and grains of the whole country and Susong in the early Ming Dynasty: the total amount of taxes and grains in the country at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty was more than 29.43 million shi, and Zhejiang's was 2.752 million shi.

, Suzhou 2.89 million

There are more than 1,290,000 stones in Songjiang. Zhejiang is one-ninth of the world, and Su is better than Zhejiang. One province is regarded as the most important in the world. Songjiang is half as good as Su, and Su is one of the seven counties in the state.

, the two counties of Songcai and one of the four divisions of Suzhitian,

The most important person in the world is Weiwu Songye. During the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, the highest tax in Suzhou was more than 2.8 million shi, which was the first in the country and more than the entire Zhejiang Province. After that, during the Hongzhi and Wanli years

The highest is 2

080,000 stones, which was the best in the country at that time. Qiu Jun's "Supplement to the Explanation of the University" said that Han Yu said that Fu was the best in the world, and Jiangnan ranked 19th. Looking at it today, the east and west of Zhejiang ranked 19th in Jiangnan, and Su

,song,chang,jia,

The five prefectures of Hu and Zhejiang are also located in the nineteen provinces of Zhejiang and Zhejiang. According to the examination of Hongwuzhong (according to "Zhu Si Zhi Zhang"), the summer tax and autumn grain in the world are calculated in stones, totaling more than 29.43 million, and the Chief Secretary of Zhejiang is 200

More than 752,000, Suzhou Prefecture 2

There are more than 1,809,000 in Songjiang Prefecture, more than 1,290,000 in Changzhou Prefecture, and more than 552,000 in Changzhou Prefecture. This is the land of the three prefectures of this vassal. Its land rent is heavier than the rest of the world, and its grain amount is greater than the rest of the world.

There are many. Today the country’s capital is Yan, and Cao is located in the south of the Yangtze River every year.

More than 4 million meters and 10,000 stones were used to build the capital; and these five prefectures mostly lived in Jiangxi, Huguang, and half of the south of Zhili. I calculated the number of Suzhou prefectures to allow for the rest. Suzhou had one prefecture and seven counties (not at the time)

Taicang Prefecture was established), with 96,000 cultivated fields

Five hundred and six hectares, among the more than 8,496,000 hectares of fields in the world, and the tax revenue of 2,809,000 shi, is within the annual quota of more than 2,940,000 shi in the world.
