Chapter 406 Three Halls Collaborate

Chapter 406: Three-Tang Collegiate Meeting

In the 11th year of Orthodoxy, September 20th, Yingtian.

In the yamen hall of Yingtian Prefecture, Jia Yucun, the prefect, sits at the top. There are also more than 20 officials sitting in the hall, including the yamen subordinate officials and the county magistrates below.

Taking out a memorial, Jia Yucun said with a smile, "Everyone, after spending more than half a year, we have finally lived up to the great trust of the Holy One and completed the clearing of Yingtian land."

"It turns out that There are more than 3 million acres of cultivated land in the register, and now there are more than 4.5 million acres. All the details have been listed in the memorial. I invite you to come here today to jointly submit the memorial."

Jiayu Village only has For one person, his main role is to supervise and supervise the completion of the Qing Dynasty. The specific tasks are completed by the people below.

Now that we are jointly submitting the memorial, we naturally have to share responsibilities, and Jia Yucun is not someone who wants to suffer.

After he picked up the pen and signed his name, he stood up, walked aside, and handed the pen to his colleague Zhang Fangshi.

The latter did not hesitate, took the pen and wrote quickly, then handed it to the next person.

While everyone was signing the petition, they only heard Zhang Fangshi say, "The three halls of Tutudang, Qingzhang, also received the emperor's order. I think the three hall officials should also co-sign this memorial."

Since it is necessary If we share responsibilities, we should implement them to the end. Zhang Fangshi’s words expressed everyone’s aspirations.

"I understand this," Jia Yucun responded.

Zhang Fangshi asked again, "When will the emperor send this memorial to the Chief Secretary?"

This obviously meant that he could not trust Jia Yucun and thought he was prevaricating, so he asked him to give it. Understand the words.

"Just today" Jia Yucun frowned.

"I am so humble and willing to go with the government official."

Hearing this, the other officials present felt a lot more at ease, but Jia Yucun felt that his appearance was particularly dull.

So he didn't answer anymore, but snorted and went out.

After he left, the county magistrate gave his thumbs up and praised, "Master Zhang, I really have you."

"We are all following orders, and it will be better if the sky falls." Only an expert can support you."

"Okay, please stop saying a few words. The Lord of the Palace also has his difficulties," Zhang Fangshi sighed.

While everyone was talking, Jia Yucun came to the back of the Yamen, where he lived.

"Master, the uncle of the Xue family is here"

"Uncle of the Xue family" Jia Yucun repeated before remembering who it was.

"Where is he?"

"In the outer hall, he said he has something important to do with the master"

"Yes"

Jia Yucun came to the outer hall and saw Xue Pan inside, playing with the toys on the shelf.

"Brother Xue Xian's great presence really brings glory to this humble house." Jia Yucun welcomed him in.

Now that the Xue family has a princess, Xue Pan has become the prince's uncle. With this relationship alone, Jia Yucun does not dare to neglect her.

"Zhifu Jia, you are too polite. I came here this time to ask for your help."Xue Pan expressed his purpose very directly.

After signaling Xue Pan to sit down, a servant brought tea. Just now, Jia Yucun asked, "What trouble did my dear brother encounter?"

"It's not a big deal. It's just that I have a friend who was detained by Shangyuan County for selling smuggled salt a few days ago, so I would like to ask the governor to help me make a difference."

"Don't worry, the governor, I will never let your help go in vain."< /p>

This time Xue Pan was really entrusted by someone. The five thousand taels of silver notes he took out at this moment were taken from the house of the person who was arrested.

Selling private salt is a big or small thing. If someone else came to ask for it, Jia Yucun might be arrogant.

However, in the entire Jinling officialdom now, because Zhu Jinghong specifically greeted him, no one would sell Xue Pan's face.

Not only cannot it be sold, but if it is found by him to prove his innocence, the officials will follow the rules more strictly.

"My dear brother, the state-owned legal family has family rules. As an official of the imperial court, how can I bend the law for personal gain?"

Jia Yucun sighed and said, "My dear brother, you still have to pay for these banknotes." Take it back."

He actually hit a wall again. Xue Pan was so angry that he put away the banknote and left directly. This behavior was extremely rude.

The Xue family’s business was blocked when they wanted to be exempted from tariffs. The Xue family fell in love with a wealthy family’s garden and wanted to seize it. Now they are asking for Jia Yucun’s release but they have hit a wall again

Thinking of what happened recently There were actually more things going on than before Baochai was elected as the princess, and even the banknotes had lost their intended use, which made Xue Pan feel bad when he thought about it.

As for Jia Yucun, after sitting at home for a while and feeling calm, he returned to the government office. At this moment, everyone had signed the pledge.

After checking and confirming that it was correct, Jia Yucun just picked up the memorial and was about to go to the Chief Secretary first.

Before leaving, Jia Yucun stopped beside the magistrate of Shangyuan County and said, "You guys have recently caught thieves selling illegal salt."

"It's true." Yuan Zhixian replied.

"This case must be handled strictly"

After giving these instructions, Jia Yucun walked out of the inner hall, and his colleague Zhang Fangshi actually followed him.

First go to the Chief Secretary, then the Inspector, and finally the Patrol Yamen. Although these three places are not far apart, they are enough to keep Jiayu Village busy for a while.

When Xue Pan returned to the house, he became more and more angry as he thought about it. Then he couldn't help but throw something, and then Aunt Xue called him to scold him.

In front of his mother, Xue Pan did not dare to refute.

But after Aunt Xue finished her training, Xue Pan asked, "Mom, when are we going to Beijing?"

"When you go to Beijing, don't you mean to take care of family affairs in Jinling?" "Aunt Xue said coldly.

That was what Xue Pan had thought before. He thought that relying on the prince's uncle, he could live happily on the ground in Jinling, but the reality gave him a slap in the face.

So now he feels that he should go to the capital, where he may be able to take advantage of his sister's influence, and at least it will not be worse than in Jinling.

Seeing that his mother had doubts, Xue Pan added, "Don't forget, mother, that your son is very old. Now it's time to speed up the marriage."

"And the official status of the Ministry of Household Affairs The matter has not come to an end yet. If my son continues to hang out in Jinling, how can he live up to his ancestors?"

You think this guy is not smart? He knows how to find these reasons.

Aunt Xue was naturally convinced at this moment.

Whether Xue Pan gets married or obtains an official status, it is a first-class event for her.

"Then you tidy up and arrange everything properly, and then we will go to the capital."

"My son obeys"

It's seventeen or eighty now Xue Pan, like a big boy, laughed and ran out.

But when he summoned the clan members for a lecture, it was a different story. At least no one in the Xue family dared to despise him, and no one dared to question his arrangements.

There is a princess in the big house. No matter how misbehaving Xue Pan is at home, everyone can only endure it.

When Xue Pan was arranging people to prepare to go to Beijing, he did not know that because of his intervention, the government strictly conducted a trial of the case.

However, this trial was extraordinary. It actually brought up the old case of Tongwa, which led to the intervention of Jinling Qianhu Office of Jinyiwei.

The final result was that the young master who participated in family affairs for the first time died in the prison of Qianhu Prison in Jinling.

Originally, because of the Qingzhang incident, Jinling turned into a powder keg. As soon as this incident came out, someone secretly added fuel to the flames. In the end, it turned into a situation where the government harmed good people, and even triggered a civil uprising in Yingtian Mansion. .

On September 25, a large number of civilians who had lost their interests in the Qing Dynasty, as well as tenants instigated by big families, tens of thousands of people showed up outside Yingtianfu City, demanding a clear explanation from the government.

Fortunately, the government responded promptly and closed the city gates to prevent the mob from breaking into the city.

With the public outrage, the soldiers from Yingtian's Qianhu Station, as well as the officers from various government offices, were all sent to the city wall.

Xue Pan, the initiator of this butterfly effect, set foot on the road to Beijing three days ago.

The Jinling Capital Command and Envoy Department is in the duty room in the inner hall.

"Your Excellency, there is another official letter from the Inspector General, hoping that we can mobilize troops from Zhenjiang Guard and Chuzhou Guard as soon as possible to strengthen Yingtian's defense."

After hearing the report from his subordinates, they all commanded Wang Quanyi. Unmoved, he just said, "Then reply to them and say that the deployment of troops is of great importance. The situation is still under control and it is not appropriate to use weapons rashly."

Now the people are surrounding the city, but the situation is still under control. All the guards need to do is to be more alert.

It is the responsibility of the government to appease the people, and Wang Quanyi does not want to get involved in this matter at all.

If the situation gets out of control or even unnecessary casualties occur due to the deployment of additional troops, Wang Quanyi will have to take responsibility under the impeachment of the Yushi Yanguan.

So even after the second letter from Chasi, Wang Quanyi still did not hesitate.Doubtful refusal.

"Yes"

After the clerk left, the commander Kong Jinshan said, "Sir, I'm afraid we have to make plans early."

"If the mob really takes over the city, we have no way to explain it."

"Then first send an order to the Chuzhou Guard and the Zhenjiang Guard, asking them to prepare two thousand soldiers each on standby, and go immediately if there is any situation "Yingtian"

Under normal circumstances, even the capital cannot mobilize troops at will, but this is not the case at the moment when mobs are sieging the city, so Wang Quanyi can issue this order.

Immediately afterwards, Kong Jinshan said, "Perhaps we can also inform the Xiaoling Guards and let them prepare to defend the city."

"Yeah." Wang Quanyi also agreed.

The Xiaoling Guards are not under the jurisdiction of Jinling Capital, so they cannot issue orders directly, but must cooperate with each other.

"This group of people caused trouble and caused trouble for us," Wang Quanyi couldn't help but scolded.

Wang Quanyi is generally aware of what has happened in Yingtian Mansion in the past six months. He understands that it is the wealthy gentry who are causing trouble and directing the hatred of the people towards the government.

In the Yinchasi Yamen, the chiefs of the Second Department of Fan Zhen and the officials under the Yamen were gathered in the inner hall to discuss matters.

"You have caused civil unrest now, which is a big deal"

"To put it mildly, it is because we have failed to teach you, but to put it seriously, it is rebellion," He Gujin said in his tone Extremely harsh.

"No matter how you say it, you and I have failed the great trust of the Holy One and should all bear responsibility for this matter."

Although I say this, it is definitely He Gujin and Zheng Xianlin who are responsible The heaviest weight, so the officials present were not nervous.

“The people are in the countryside, and they gathered so quickly. There must be someone behind the scenes. What I am worried about is that there is a fool between you and me, wearing the same pants as this local gentry.”

Even if someone at the scene colluded with the local gentry, it is impossible to admit it at the moment, so He Gujin only hopes to Advise these people to stop.

"You and I are all foreign officials, and to be honest, we have nothing to do with the local gentry."

"Master He is sincere and does not treat you as outsiders. You must think carefully."

Zheng Xianlin looked around at everyone, and then said, "It's too late to stop now. After the Jinyi Guards conduct a strict investigation, I'm afraid there will be no room for change."

At this time, the person below said, "Master Zheng is already here." I have explained what I have said, and I have something to say even if I am in a humble position."

This person is Wang Xin, the Chief Secretary who is involved in politics. He is in charge of the land and registration of a province, and he knows everything about Tian Qingzhang.

"You say" Zheng Xianlin said calmly.

"Today's incident, on the surface, is due to the illegal salt case and the Japanese treason case, but in fact it is the instigation of the local gentry with the intention of disrupting the government of Yingtian Qingzhang"

"So the meaning of humble office Yes, if you capture the thief first and capture the king, as long as you capture the big households in Yingtian, this disaster may be easily solved."

"It is difficult to convince the public to arrest people without any basis or evidence."

"In extraordinary times, extraordinary measures may be discussed in detail."

Listening to the discussion among the people below, both Zheng and He felt angry. These people were obviously watching the fun. mentality, otherwise I would not make such a reckless request.

Now there is only turmoil on the ground in Yingtian. If these big people in the city are really arrested and exterminated in Shilin, the whole of Jinling will be in chaos.

"What do you think?" Zheng Xianlin looked at He Gujin.

"The matter is clear. The people were deceived and just pointed the finger at the government. As long as the matter is explained clearly, everything can be easily solved."

"The interests of the people must have been harmed. , how can you explain it clearly and who can explain it clearly?" Zheng Xianlin said angrily.

While the two of them were talking, the people below also fell silent and listened.

When He Gujin glanced over, these people all turned their heads to the side, fearing that they would be ordered to appease the people.

"Then naturally whoever caused the trouble, let him go."

"You mean Magistrate Jia"

"Well, there is also Shangyuan. County magistrate." He Gujin nodded.

"But what if they can't persuade them to stop?" Zheng Xianlin asked.

If Jia Yucun cannot persuade him and continues to persuade him, someone with a higher official position will have to appear.

Everyone present has a higher official position than Jia Yucun.

Several political councilors and Deputy Envoy Qian Shi looked towards the roof. At this time, no one wanted to wade into this muddy water.

"If Jia Yucun can't persuade him, I'll try to persuade him again," He Gujin said with a cold face.

"The mob is acting arrogantly, if there is something wrong"

Before Zheng Xianlin finished speaking, He Gujin said, "In that case, Lao Zheng, you should go ahead"

p>

"I can't do this anymore, look at my bones."

Seeing Zheng Xianlin presenting facts and being reasonable, He Gujin didn't talk nonsense to him.

"By the way, what's going on now has to be reported to the Holy One. You and I can jointly report it," He Gujin said in a deep voice.

"It should be so." After saying this, Zheng Xianlin added, "Zhao Xunpin should also be allowed to sign."

"That's exactly what it is."

Everyone got busy. , about half an hour later, Jia Yucun received an official letter jointly signed by the three halls, asking him to explain the situation to the people and try to persuade them to return to their hometown.

“Humph, these people are more sluggish than the last.”

“What is the origin of this matter? Don’t they know that no matter how clearly the case is explained, do these people know how to explain it? "Go back"

At this moment, he was not in the government office, but in the Yanxunyan Censor's office not far away. Lin Ruhai heard all his complaints.

Lin Ruhai sighed, "They are very aware of the relationship behind this, so they hide further away than the other."

He has never been in good health, and he even fainted a few days ago. Although he died, he survived this year again.

"Brother Lin, what do you think I should do?"

"It's good if you can persuade me to leave. If you can't persuade me to leave, I'll report it to the three halls and let them worry about it," Lin Ruhai replied.

According to the authority previously given by the emperor, Jia Yucun can find out the mastermind behind the scenes and bring him to justice to serve as a warning to others.

But now that his boss is unable to do anything, he has no choice but to follow orders. Reckless actions may resolve the crisis, but the risks will increase sharply to the point of overwhelming him. Naturally, Jia Yucun will not take this path. .

I just heard Lin Ruhai smile and say, "Brother Jia, now that the marriage has been settled, I'm afraid it's time for you to be promoted."

Jia Yucun shook his head and said, "Well, I can live in peace." I am grateful to God for this disaster."

Putting away the official letter, Jia Yucun stood up and said, "Brother Lin, have a good rest. I'm going to do something first."

"I'll see you off"< /p>

"Stay, stay"

Looking at Jia Yucun's leaving figure, Lin Ruhai sighed, and then said, "The officialdom is getting more and more difficult to treat. Let's resign again this year." ”

Lin Ruhai originally thought that fighting against a group of salt merchants would be difficult enough, but it was nothing compared to what Jia Yucun is doing now.
