One Hundred and Two Chapter One Hundred and Two

The first fire started by Feng Ziying immediately made the entire wealthy families in Lulong County agitated.

Before, they had expected that Xiao Feng Xiuzhan, who had made a great name in the capital city, would definitely not be quiet in this corner of Yongping Mansion, but they never expected that he would first use the military household to hide his house.

Hetuntian surgery.

If you want to move Renhe Tian, ​​this will directly hit the big family in the back.

Which of the big gentry families in Lulong did not hide military households? Which family did not benefit from the private confiscation of military land?

Although every family feels that this is a hidden danger, twenty years have passed, and no one from the previous governors or colleagues has come to pick up this matter. Why did Xiao Feng Xiuzhan come here to rub the tiger's beard?

?

It is not an exaggeration to say that the tiger's beard is being rubbed, this is not a matter of any one family, but at least half of the wealthy gentry in Lulong County are involved. You, a new colleague, are going to challenge all the gentry in the entire county?

"Ziying, you have really posed a big problem for me." Zhu Zhiren did not expect that Feng Ziying would be so fierce and fierce. He had previously solved the problem of the craftsmen in Jizhen, and Zhu Zhiren was very satisfied.

Although there are factors related to his father, after all, this also involves the interests of the Ji Town military, and it is not that simple.

But now Feng Ziying turned her sword and pointed it at the wealthy gentry in Lulong County, which made Zhu Zhiren's heart tremble.

"Master Fu, I have to say something rude, our government office lacks prestige in the eyes of these wealthy gentry." Feng Ziying glanced at the other party and said with a smile: "Although the court treats the gentry favorably, but

It does not mean that the gentry can be above the government. In addition, the gentry enjoys the preferential treatment of the court, but they should also bear obligations. One of the most important obligations is to set an example and abide by the law. However, it seems that our gentry in Yongping Prefecture do not

Failure to do this is even challenging the bottom line of the court's laws."

Feng Ziying's unkind words made Zhu Zhiren's face feel hot. Although he was a little annoyed, he had to admit that what the other party said was true.

The various resistances he encountered in Yongping Mansion were probably caused by these gentry. Why didn't he want to do some things?

Doing some political achievements will also be beneficial to your future promotion.

However, this group of gentry always found various reasons to obstruct, and they also used some personal connections in the court to greet and set up obstacles, putting themselves in a dilemma. Over time, they also became a little cold and discouraged.

Now that an assistant with such a cool and strong style suddenly came to him, he was still a little uncomfortable with it, and even became a little timid. This made Zhu Zhiren feel uncomfortable in his heart, which quickly turned into a kind of excitement.

Zhu Zhiren is very clear about his shortcomings and advantages.

His shortcomings are that he is soft-tempered and does not have a strong backing background in the court. His advantage is that he has stayed in Yongping Mansion for so many years and is familiar with everyone. He can be involved in every aspect and knows everything.

The advantages and disadvantages of the person in front of me seem to be exactly opposite to my own.

My father is the governor of Jiliao, and he has reached the ultimate level of a military commander. He is also a martial artist. As long as he makes some meritorious service in the battlefield of Liaodong, his promotion to the prince will be a matter of course.

His mentor was the right minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, Lao Jia, who was in charge of the secretarial department, and the person in charge was the left deputy censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Even Chai Ke, the left minister of the Ministry of War, who had a relationship with the provincial party, was full of praise for him, and there were a lot of people. He helped the closely-connected Yonglong 5th-year Jinshi as his wing, and he was also a Shujishi, and he had the aura of compilation in the Hanlin Academy.

These connections made Zhu Zhiren even jealous.

Zhu Zhiren knows very well that this person has an unlimited future, and now he is just temporarily living here, looking for a suitable platform to take off.

What I have to do is actually very simple, just take this opportunity to cooperate with the other party. No matter what the other party is like, after all, in this Yongping Mansion, I am the well-deserved parent official. If something goes wrong, I can't run away, and I can't do without my achievements. Such an opportunity How could you not catch it?

If something really goes wrong, Zhu Zhiren believes that neither Qi Yongtai nor Guan Yingzhen and Qiao Yingjia will sit idly by. In this case, what reason does he have for not accompanying this guy to go crazy?

"Ziying, I understand your ambitions, but some things cannot be done overnight. Maybe taking it step by step can avoid more trouble..." Zhu Zhiren said with a wry smile: "Do you think I don't want to do these things? But you You must know that this group of gentry is not simple. They all have countless connections in the capital. If they are touched at all, they will attract all kinds of criticism and doubts..."

"Fu Zun, of course I know, but because they have these backers, why don't we do it?" Feng Ziying shook her head, "I am a Tongzhi, and the Qing army is my responsibility. I have lived with my father in Datong since I was a child, and I understand that Hidden military households are a chronic disease that can be found everywhere, but this is really the first time I have seen such a rampant situation in Yongping Mansion. Of course, this is not the responsibility of the governor. After more than ten or twenty years, the ruins left behind There will definitely be a lot of resistance in cleaning things up, but I am ready for all kinds of preparations and challenges..."

Zhu Zhiren shook his head, "The problem of hiding military households is certainly troublesome, but it is not the most important thing..."

"Your Excellency, are you worried about clearing the land for military settlements?" Feng Ziying asked again.

"Yes." Zhu Zhiren changed his previous expression and said solemnly: "Since the past twenty years, for various reasons, only 2,000 to 3,000 acres of military land have been left, and these 2,000 to 3,000 acres have been replaced by remote areas. How many people are working in the lower fields where we are? This is not something that a group of gentry can do."

Feng Ziying was stunned, "What the Master means is that there are still many problems here, um, are they related to officials?"

"Well, all these fields are concentrated in Lulong. In the past ten or twenty years, the county magistrate has changed several times. Which one dares to pat his chest and say that he has not touched meat and fish in it?" Zhu Zhiren's eyes were cold, "Does Ziying know these magistrates? Where did the county magistrate go in the end?"

Feng Ziying realized the difficulty and frowned, "The army's farmland and land are all under the jurisdiction of the military buildings and households in the mansion, so why is it Lulong County who takes charge of it?"

"Ziying, you don't know the situation below. The military buildings and households in the government office are not specifically managed, but are only responsible for registering and supervising. The specific daily inspections and management are done by the county. Otherwise, this government office

In charge of five counties and one state, there are only a few dozen people in each house, and there are still a few Wei towns with land and population, how can they manage it?" Zhu Zhiren is still very familiar with the specific situation of the government office.

"Then the government should also perform its supervisory functions. Hasn't it seen any problems in the past twenty years?" Feng Ziying chuckled, as if she didn't believe it.

"Ziying, these kinds of things are all happening on this piece of land. The people in these houses are all human beings. How can we not see the problem?" Zhu Zhiren shook his head and smiled bitterly, "The problem is that the county can make superficial remarks at the top and bottom.

It's all done beautifully, and you can't find anything in ordinary random inspections. There are endless tricks like substituting things, hiding things from the truth, and making things worse. If you can still have a tacit understanding and tacit understanding with the people in charge of the house, who will do it?

Are you willing to lift these lids and offend others?"

"Does the Master mean that this matter can no longer be carried out?" Feng Ziying asked coldly.

"No, Ziying, you have already let the words out. This is water that has been thrown out. There is no way to take it back. But I think we can find some less drastic means and try to do it slowly, so that those people can

There is some room for maneuver..."

"Sir, I'm afraid it's too late." Feng Ziying shook her head.

"It's too late?" Zhu Zhiren was confused, "Ziying, what do you mean?"

Feng Ziying pondered for a moment before saying: "Master Fu, if the information I got is correct, the Chahar people are very likely to invade the south this autumn..."

When Zhu Zhiren heard this, he almost slipped from the chair to the ground. His face suddenly turned pale and his lips trembled, "Ziying, what did you say? The Mongols are going to invade the south? Our Yongping Mansion? Where did this news come from?

Come? Is it accurate?"

The Mongolian invasion dates back twenty years ago. Although the entire Yongping Prefecture has been under the shadow of the Mongolian invasion for the past twenty years, as time goes by, everyone's vigilance has gradually weakened. After all, it has become

It was tense all day long, and no one could bear it. I didn’t expect that the Mongols were coming again.

"I said, if there are no mistakes, the Mongolian invasion is a high probability event. As for where to come from, it is impossible to determine. Maybe the Mongols did not go through Yongping but Daning and Ningyuan in western Liaoning, or they might come from the west.

Invading Shuntianxuanfu, I personally feel that our Yongpingfu is in greater danger."

Feng Ziying's words made Zhu Zhiren almost collapse in his chair. Feng Ziying didn't say where the news came from, but he knew very well that the news could only come from Jizhen.

"What should I do?" Zhu Zhiren didn't expect that he had been here in Yongping Mansion for five years. If he was lucky, he could change his position after working for one year. He thought that Feng Ziying's arrival would be his opportunity, but he didn't expect that he would wait until

Such sad news.

"Sir, this is just my personal judgment. Even if the Mongols invade south, we in Yongping will not just sit back and wait for death." Feng Ziying did not expect Zhu Zhiren to be so afraid of this.

It's no wonder that he was born as a scholar and had never experienced anything like this. The catastrophe of Yongping Mansion twenty years ago still left a deep shadow in the minds of the officials and people of Yongping Mansion. Zhu Zhiren had naturally heard about it, so he was so afraid.

It's also reasonable.

"Ziying, you don't know the Mongols..."

"Sir, when I was five years old, I followed my father in fighting the Tumuts in Datong. We fought and made peace, and we fought again and again. I didn't arrive in the capital until I was twelve years old." Feng Ziying interrupted the other party without politeness, "In the sixth year of Yonglong's reign, I

Mr. Chai and I went on an expedition to the west to quell the rebellion. I went alone to negotiate with Bu Shitu, the leader of the Tumut people, and finally convinced him not to support Liu Dongyang's rebellion..."

Only then did Zhu Zhiren realize that the young colleague in front of him had a martial arts background, and he had also been on the battlefield himself, so he felt a little relieved.
