"Tell me." Jiajing was wearing a black cloak and did not reveal his identity. He was sitting on a wooden chair. Next to him, Chen Hong was wearing a red public uniform robe. There were more than a dozen imperial guards surrounding him with their swords on their waists.
Although Leader Zhang Da and Leader Zhang Xiao have not yet been sentenced, they know from watching this battle that life and death depend on this.
"Master, I'll recruit, I'll recruit them all, I'll recruit them all. Whatever you want to ask, I'll recruit you." Leader Zhang Da kowtowed with snot and tears to beg for mercy.
“Let’s talk about your Hangzhou White Lotus Sect first.” Jiajing didn’t pay much attention to leader Zhang Da’s foreplay.
"Sir, although we are called the White Lotus Sect, we are just borrowing the name from Wusheng Old Mother. It is completely different from Tang Saier's rebellion in the past. It's just that the White Lotus Sect is strictly prohibited by the imperial court.
Since we are known as the White Lotus Sect, whoever joins us will be a traitor to the imperial court. Those who join the sect are poor people who cannot get help from the imperial court and are desperate and need to be united.
With the name of the White Lotus Sect, anyone who does not unite after joining the religion will be guilty of both the imperial court and the recklessness. Such people will have no choice but to form a gang and commit crimes."
Leader Zhang paused and Chen Hong added. "Isn't it a crime for you to engage in the White Lotus Sect? It's also a conspiracy. You already know Tang Sai'er, but you still say that you don't know the law and break the law, and you still make fun of others. Don't you local officials in Hangzhou care?"
"This gentleman, the conscience of heaven and earth . We in the Bailian Sect in Hangzhou say it is a crime to change the name. But we have never committed any crimes such as murder, robbery, or rebellion. Even if the gentry officials in Hangzhou ask us to be black gloves, we basically refuse.
In our White Lotus sect, when our brothers are bullied while working at the docks or on projects, it is only useful for us to swear to support each other in the name of Wusheng Mother.
Gentlemen. , you should know that people are humble when they leave their hometown. Those of us who work hard in the city have to work in the city when our land is annexed, we have no food and clothing, and we live on the streets. It's really a mess, you can only work as a dog for the gentry's family, the kind of dog that is free, and it depends on whether you want it. Or it can be a bandit who gathers in the mountains and forests to bring disaster to the world.
The conscience of the world. Although I did commit a capital crime, at least I have a clear conscience."
"You are very eloquent, but it is a pity that you gave birth to such a stupid son." Jiajing originally just wanted to ridicule, but he didn't know what to say. What's the matter with having such a kind of heart?
"Master, I feel guilty. It's me. I mistook that damned Yan Xiucai, and it's all because of my lard that deceived my heart. It has nothing to do with my stupid son, "Master" Leader Zhang Da immediately realized that something was wrong, and he had to sacrifice himself to save his son. Because Yan Xiucai was already dead when he came to the capital.
"Yes, it was all because of my father's unruly heart and greed that he listened to Yan Xiucaili's instructions."
Before Zhang Xiaojiao finished speaking, he was told by Chen Hong instructed Jin Yiwei to reward the big mouths..
"I didn't ask, don't tell me, tell me how you managed to take in several clan members from Henan." Jiajing didn't care about the distribution of responsibilities between the Zhang family and his son.
"Children of the clan, sir, although there are a few from Henan, we can't check their household registrations when registering. They are all refugees, and what they say is what they say. Doesn't everyone in the clan have a title? Even if there is no Lumi in the court, every vassal is not a family, and the clan is a family. How can the vassals ignore it? How can I become a refugee? Master, although if you want to recruit, I can recruit you, but this is not the case. Even if the matter is told, the emperor will never believe it, sir."
The title of taking in the clan's children was something that Master Zhang did not expect at all. He also said it truthfully.
On hearing these remarks, Jiajing's face completely darkened.
The clan had already had an incident in the first half of the year, when a distant clan clan starved to death in the majestic city. Now there are local clan clan members who are willing to become refugees and even fall into the sect.
My family knows this. Since the Jiajing year, Guang himself has lowered the clan Lumi twice. The godson family that I found for the emperor's grandson already owed salary for a year because they had a lower title and were out of the fifth service. What's more, there are many places that are so far away that they haven't even entered Yudie's clan.
Although they are already so far apart and there is no family affection left to speak of, the old face is still a bit uncomfortable when things like this happen.
The Ming Dynasty Law prohibits clan members from engaging in imperial examinations, industry and commerce, leaving the back cover, etc. Therefore, in the city, anyone who is not a prince with a fiefdom can only survive on Lumi. If you have Lumi, you are a gangster in the city. If you don't have Lumi, you can only be a beggar in the city until you starve to death. Unless you are not in Yudie, you will have the opportunity to sneak out of the city and become a refugee.
The more Jiajing thought about it, the more depressed he became, as if this picture of the Great Hierarch was specially coming to slap him, the Holy Lord, in the face. With a bang, he left Zhao Prison. Please remember to collect it, the latest and fastest website is free to read without anti-theft
