Han’s Son is Not a Slave: Chapter 928 big case

Jin Shengtan and the others didn't notice Suna and his party. All they saw in their eyes were the people who echoed their voices loudly, and the yamen like a bereaved dog. The morale was irresistible along the way.

From beginning to end, Jin Shengtan and his friends Ding Ziwei, Ding Guansheng and others were all at the forefront, for fear that the people would not recognize him as Mr. Jin Da. A group of scholars also highly praised Jin Shengtan, and they all said that if Mr. Jin Da did not come forward in this matter today, why would he have such a momentum. Seeing what the people wanted, everyone went to the holy temple to worship and cry together. Needless to say, the cruel official Ren Weichu, even Yan Shaoqing, the prefect of Suzhou, and Jiang Guozhu, the governor of Jiangsu, would also be feared by the general trend of the people.

"The name of the official government is to clear the debt, but it is actually a blow to my Jiangnan family, which means that I am also a Jiangnan people!"

When he heard that Weng Shuyuan's family was forcibly confiscated by Ren Weichu, Jin Shengtan said this to his friend. In his opinion, the so-called clearing of debts is not true at all. Since no money and food have been collected for many years, why should they be requisitioned again. It only took a few months for Jiangnan to return to the Ming Dynasty. In the past, Jiangnan belonged to the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty did not clear the debt to the people of Jiangnan. Why should the Ming Dynasty ask the people of Jiangnan to pay the debt. When a new dynasty is established, a pardon is the only thing. How to re-raise the old account of the past is unreasonable, and it is impossible to explain how. Furthermore, what kind of tax is owed, and what kind of tax is owed? Are you Ming or Qing? If you don't explain this clearly, you can't talk about debt.

Jin Shengtan is extremely arrogant. When he was tested for talents in his early years, he wrote articles as he wanted, not according to the rules and regulations, so he was never selected in his fifties. After the Qing army entered the customs, he changed his name to Jin Renrui and pretended to be a famous person who pursued the free and easy life. I don't know where I learned to help the gods to descend the spirits. He claims to be the reincarnation of the disciple of Zhiyi, the founder of the Tiantai sect of Buddhism. , it is a nonsense, a rambunctious person, but because of this, he has gained a reputation as a great talent. When he is old, he is honored as "Mr. Jin Da". .

Jin Shengtan gladly accepted everyone's praise all the way, and he was very dissatisfied. He cried for 10% of the temple, saved Ni Yongbin and others, and stopped the government's **** debts, and his name, Mr. Jin Da, could be widely spread in Nanjing City.

......

The incident of the crying temple first happened three days ago. The Jiangsu Governor Yamen reported the matter to Queen Qi. Governor Jiang Guozhu got the approval of King Qi and ordered Suzhou Prefecture to take people. Uncovered Jin Shengtan. On the one hand, Jiang Guozhu still didn't want to make things too big, but on the other hand, there were people in Jin Shengtan's court. Qian Qianyi was his uncle, and his aunt, Hedong Junliu, was also in Suzhou City.

Don't look at the monk's face and look at the Buddha's face, King Qi has approved people, but Jiang Guozhu always wants to leave some affection here. He just wanted to scare these scholars and let the gentry in other places know the court's determination to clear their debts. He wanted them all to be sensible and obediently pay money and food to the new dynasty. Raised a huge case.

Jiang Guozhu was the first to report to Lang Tingzuo, the governor of Liangjiang, about the matter of clearing the debt When the bandit chaos is pacified, a major case will be filed. Jiang Guozhu knew that the cancellation of the case would certainly offend a lot of people, so at that time he had the intention to let Zhu Guozhi handle the matter. Later, the Taiping Army broke through Nanjing City, and Zhu Guozhi and Lang Tingzuo were taken to the Xiaoling Mausoleum and killed together. But the commander of the Taiping Army, His Royal Highness King Qi of Daming, did not know where to find his official document and threw it in front of him, which made Jiang Guozhu difficult to ride a tiger.

If the case is filed, it will definitely be of great benefit to the court and King Qi. He Jiang Guozhu can take advantage of this major case to go to the court in one step and completely wash away his status of demotion. But if this case really started, it would definitely be a shocking case, and even if it didn't work out, it would force the gentry against Jiangnan. Jiang Guozhu only dared to think about the consequences. He was afraid that he would not be able to hold back, and he was even more afraid that His Royal Highness King Qi would throw it away when he was done using it, then he would have nowhere to say.

Jiang Guozhu wanted to take it step by step, from small to large, to slowly advance this matter, and gradually get money and grain from the hands of the Jiangnan gentry. In this way, it will not be so intense, and there is no need to create a big prison. At the end, I will find an excuse to stop this matter, so that King Qi can explain it. After all, some money and food have been made. It's easy to say on the gentry's side, but it didn't let you all go bankrupt, just a little blood.

It's not as good as the sky, Jiang Guozhu just instructed Yan Shaoqing to try to clear the debt first in Wuzhong County, which caused the crying temple. The tone of King Qi's reply was also very strict. He wanted Jiangsu to be tougher. He also pointed out that the governor, the prefect, and the prefect of Zhili should all count the money and grain owed to them, and Zhaozhou County would participate in the punishment. Promotion, those who owe one cent will be fined for six months, and they will be promoted as usual. Those who owe two cents will receive a living salary, those who owe three cents will be demoted by one level, those who owe four cents will be demoted by two levels, and those who owe five points will be demoted by one level. Those with six points are demoted to the second level, and all of them will be urged by the superintendent, and their promotion and transfer will be suspended until the end of the day. Those who owe seven points are demoted to the first level, those who owe eight points are demoted to the second level, and those who owe nine points are dismissed~www.mtlnovel.com~ Such a severe punishment system is certain, and the direction of things is not the "moderate" Jiang Guozhu previously envisaged. ". But even so, Jiang Guozhu still did not want to be a cruel official. He kept a hand with Jin Shengtan, not only to show his favor to the Suzhou gentry, but also to the Jiangnan officials in the court.

Jiang Guozhu did not know that his good intentions were regarded as donkey liver dung. After Jin Shengtan knew about this, he actively contacted hundreds of scholars in Suzhou and wanted to go to the Holy Temple to cry together. In order to make the noise even bigger, to force the government to release people, to admit that the scholars’ demands were reasonable, and to severely punish Ren Weichu, Jin Shengtan and his gang took a lot of money privately, and used it to buy people to boost their popularity, so that they could come here. More people who don't know the truth are involved. This is called "pressing people with power".

"Go to the holy temple, go to the holy temple!"

Hundreds of scholars shouted in unison to go to the school temple and cry in front of the statue of Confucius. Hundreds of idlers who got money also followed suit. The common people watched the fun or cried because of this group of scholars. The temple is indeed beneficial to them, and they are all clamoring for it. The scene seemed to be getting bigger and bigger and more intense.
