Five hundred and twentieth chapters after the oriole (four)
Even though He Nansheng was calm, his eyes were filled with panic after hearing Wang Shouren's words. He had thought before that someone had instructed Zheng Liu, but he never expected that the person behind the scenes would be He Mian.
The person who came forward was He Mian. Who is the person in the eyes of outsiders?
He Nansheng couldn't help looking around. Wang Shouren's expression was solemn and could not warm up just now. The other two middle-aged men dressed in an internal minister looked at him with a questioning face. In a panic, he hurriedly said: "Sir, the imperial envoy, He Mian's other behind him.
Someone is colluding with Songjiang Prefecture officials and Songjiang gentry to plot against Songjiang Prefecture!”
"Oh, then He Mian was not instructed by you? But someone else?" Wang Shouren frowned, with a look of suspicion on his face, as if he didn't believe He Nansheng's words.
"There is really someone else, it's not someone else, but the master of the prefect's aide Yan Baowen!" He Nansheng said.
"You are talking about Zhao Xianzhong. Zhao Xianzhong was originally the prefect of Songjiang. What can he do to fall behind the bandits in Songjiang?" Wang Shouren shook his head and said disapprovingly.
He Nansheng is really anxious this time.
Instructing He Mian to bribe Zheng Liu, he wanted to put the charge of murdering the third son of the Shen family on his head. The Shen family was killed or injured. If this crime was fulfilled, murder would be a killing. He Nansheng would not be able to escape the death penalty. There was also a plot behind him.
The crime of "Japanese riot" in Songjiang this time was more than 100 casualties, and I am afraid that the He clan would be involved. Even if it was not the crime of raiding the family and extermination of the clan, the families who were harmed by the "Japanese riot" inside and outside Songjiang Mansion would also consider it.
The He family is an enemy, and the He family will find it difficult to gain a foothold in the future.
Feng Shui has changed, and the dilemma that the Shen family encountered before has now fallen on the He family.
"It's King Ning who is ill-behaved and is raising dead soldiers to rob the place!" He Nansheng no longer cared about anything else and said hurriedly.
Just as Shen Li could find out the intersection between He Mian and Zheng Liu through He Mian, the news about He Nansheng would only be more informative than Shen Li. He had only suspected the soldiers and bandits before, and had never suspected the vassal kings. When Shen Li told him that He Nansheng would be
The news in my hand is summarized, and the areas that were not very clear before are now clear.
Zhang Yong narrowed his eyes and looked at Wang Shouren.
The vassal kings raise private soldiers and plot against rebellion must be exposed. The person who was exposed seems to have made contributions, but who knows whether his relatives and nobles will hold grudges? It is clearly Shen Li, and the Shen Rui tribe brothers investigated.
Wang Shouren wanted the He family to bite out the news first, because it was the disciples' love for them.
When Gao Nianen heard the word "King Ning", she couldn't help but change her face and looked at Zhang Yong and wanted to speak but stopped.
Zhang Yong saw it and did not ask questions, but continued to pay attention to Wang Shouren and He Nansheng.
Wang Shouren did not rush to ask questions, but asked the secretary next to him to help him, and then said: "Pengxing a false clan is a death sentence. Do you have any evidence?"
He Nansheng was unable to get rid of the tiger and could not speak back, so he could only grit his teeth and said, "The students' home had two standard weapons left by the private soldiers of Ning Wang who impersonated the name of Japanese pirates plundering Songjiang. The students realized that something was wrong and arranged for the servants at home to quietly track the bandits' ships and found that they were hiding in Taihu Lake.
.”
The so-called "standard weapons" are naturally not forged by the people, but are mostly leaked from the army.
Wang Shouren frowned and said, "This only shows that some bandits pretended to be Japanese pirates and went ashore to rob. How can they be related to the vassal kings thousands of miles away?"
He Nansheng said: "Because of the student investigation, after King Ning came to Beijing this spring, he did not return to the vassal state directly, but came to Songjiang Prefecture in a light car. In addition to winning over He Mian, a student clan member, Shen Zhu, a son of Shen family.
, and had contacts with the head of the Zhang clan. But the students did not know what they had to discuss in detail. But Yan Baowen then came to Songjiang Prefecture as a staff member and instigated the prefect Zhao Xianzhong to plunder the place, which was well known. Soon afterwards, Yan Baowen secretly customized it again.
If the students guessed it correctly, the private silver treasury of Zhao's official treasury must have been dropped. Unexpectedly, King Ning was unable to satisfy his desire, so he directly sent troops to plunder the Songjiang Mansion under the name of Japanese pirates."
He Nansheng originally wanted to pull Shenli into the water, but at first he thought that it was not him who was on Ning Wang, but Shenli, but he couldn't help but feel selfish as he told the story.
This rebellion of King Ning was a huge matter. Compared with the Japanese pirates who came ashore, the rebellion of the vassal kings was even more intolerable to the court. With the lessons of the "Jingnan Campaign", the court would thoroughly investigate the Ningba. At that time, he discovered and thus curbed Ning Fan's rebellion and became a meritorious minister.
How can such credit be divided equally with the Shen family? Not to mention that Chen Li is the top scholar, and now he is the official in the capital. If his name is given to Chen Li? In front of the imperial court, the emperor and the court only pay more attention to Chen Li, this is his own little one. Juren becomes a by-pass.
He Nansheng provided weapons as evidence and also provided the "rebels" to settle down. Finally, he proposed the matter of Zhao Xianzhong hiding silver. Wang Shouren asked the document to record one by one, and finally asked He Nansheng to sign and seal the picture.
After asking He Nansheng, Wang Shouren did not continue to inquire, but came out of the prefect's prison.
Gao Nianen has calmed down from the initial panic and did not have the desire to be lucky. He told Zhang Yong the truth: "Uncle, this King Ning has sent someone to the weaving yamen before, saying that he was buying some good materials, and that subordinate also ate in Suzhou. Please give me a few times.”
"When did it happen?" Zhang Yongdao.
"In March and April this year," Gao Nianen said.
That was just before the Songjiang "bandit chaos" came back from the capital.
"Who are the people attending the banquet? Can you find them to ask questions immediately?" Zhang Yongdao.
Gao Nianen thought for a while and said, "My nephew has a nephew who donated his family last year, and now he has a hundred households under his nephew. My nephew remembers that he went to eat the table last time."
The inner officials are also raised by their parents in life, and they do not pop out of the cracks of stones. After this glorious scenery, they naturally think about pulling their relatives. Gao Nianen was sent to the palace by her stepmother to be a young eunuch. Only one of her compatriots married her to fill in the house. Sister. When he got out of the palace, the sister was gone, leaving only his son to see his half-brother and sister-in-law's face, living like a cow and horse. Gao Nianen took his nephew to raise him, changed his surname to Gao, and then donated his birth. , just be raised by your son.
This time I came here to show my face, so Gao Nianen naturally brought his nephew.
A while later, Gao Nianen's nephew Gao Yuan was brought. At only sixteen or seventeen years old, perhaps because of his childhood, Gao Yuan was a little short and had a little trembling on his face.
"When the Ning Prince's Mansion manager came to Suzhou to treat him at the end of March, he still remembered what he said? Don't be afraid, think about it carefully, and tell me to the imperial envoy and your uncle of the Zhang family." Gao Nianen said gently.
Gao Yuan's expression was relieved. He looked at Wang Shouren and Zhang Yong carefully, but his face gradually turned red, lowered his head and whispered: "Manager Qian... said that Nanchang Mansion is outstanding, the girl is beautiful, and the princess's mother's family is used to it again. Beautiful girl, wait for the opportunity to be a matchmaker with me in the future…”
Where did the dignified vassal king use his in-laws to win over the children of eunuchs who are garrisoning thousands of miles away?
Gao Nianen felt her hair stand up and said with anger: "There is still this matter, why don't you tell me?"
Gao Yuan was shocked and said with a blank face: "I...I know he was fooling me at the wine table. He didn't take it seriously, so he didn't mention it to his uncle."
"Then what else did he mention?" Gao Nianen asked with a frown.
Gao Yuan whispered: "I also asked my uncle about his daily preferences and provided the boat to Beijing every year..." Speaking of this, he frowned and thought, "Manager Qian seems to be quite happy with military affairs. My nephew remembers that he would invite him during the second meal. The guest is the deputy Qianhu Administrator of Qianhu Institute in Suzhou."
Zhang Yong and Wang Shouren looked at each other, and both of them were serious.
Gao Nianen said, "But remember what they all said?"
After all, after several months, Gao Yuan couldn't remember it clearly. He frowned and thought for a while. Fang said embarrassedly: "Manager Qian said a lot, but his nephew really couldn't remember it clearly. However, Deputy Bai Qianhu seemed to praise his family. The household office comes. Speaking of other thousand household offices, there are almost all employees of the Qianhou Office in Suzhou. Because the current Qianhou Adult made military achievements from Datong Prefecture, the most important training is the Qianhou Office in Suzhou. He has become an elite soldier."
Inquiring about Suzhou's arms, what can this be done before the "Japanese riots" in Songjiang?
The land of Susong was not only rich in literary style, but also had fertile land and rich people. Suzhou was also in front of Songjiang, and the wealth of Suzhou Prefecture was no less than that of Songjiang Prefecture.
Gao Nianen thought he was a bystander and came to watch the fun, but he almost got his nest. He was afraid and said angrily: "Looking at the local military, King Ning is rebellious!"
It was just a diligence before, but Shen Rui's guess, but after this link, the traces of King Ning could no longer be covered.
Wang Shouren has already made the documents record the plateaus one by one according to the convention, and let the plateaus sign and mark it.
So what if you don’t arrest King Ning? Such rebellion is the most taboo for the court. Even if there is nothing, you must thoroughly investigate any matter that is mentioned by someone.
The next step is the "suppression of bandits" in Taihu Lake.
There are such a group of private soldiers raised by vassal kings in the hinterland of Jiangnan. Who knows when the "Japanese war" will happen again? Moreover, Taihu Lake is only more than 300 miles away from Nanjing. If they make trouble in Nanjing, even if they are finally wiped out, they will be injured. The court faced.
It is just that it is a big deal to mobilize troops and suppress bandits. It is not like he used the imperial envoy's seal to second the hundreds of Jinyiwei, after all, he had to go through the court and the Ministry of War.
The premise is that the private soldiers of King Ning hide in Taihu Lake and there are bandits to suppress.
Wang Shouren said to Zhang Yong: "I want to report to the court to dispatch troops to suppress bandits, but I don't know what the movements in Taihu Lake are. If the news is leaked, it will be bad if the bandits are scattered and the Jiangnan is chaotic."
Zhang Yong thought for a while and said, "A dozen boats, thousands of people, will never disappear in vain. The bandits were hiding in Taihu Lake at that time, so they had to send people to stare at it, so don't let them run away. , but it is difficult to deal with. I am afraid that all the elders of the cabinet will not agree with the light military operation."
King Ning did not pull the flag of the rebellion, everything was just speculation. The ministers in the court were used to being arguing with each other, and they thought they would ask the local government to find out the evidence first before they would agree to mobilize troops to "suppress the bandits". At that time, the daylily was cold It's right.
Wang Shouren was a doctor in the Ministry of War, so he naturally knew the cumbersomeness of the imperial court's dispatch of troops. He thought about it and said, "The best way is to order the emperor to issue a visa from the Nanjing Ministry of War to transfer the people here to suppress the bandits..."
In this way, it is difficult to get the matter of King Ning to the table for the time being. Wang Shouren and Zhang Yong were the imperial envoys who came down to investigate the "Japanese riots" in Songjiang. It would be better to associate the bandits in Taihu Lake with Songjiang. Wang Shouren is not considered a transcendent.
