Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? It was already the annual holiday period. According to the usual practice in previous years, during this period, even the emperor had a rest and did not need to deal with any government affairs.

    The courtiers are also taking a rest at home, reuniting with their families, and celebrating the New Year happily. If there are any matters, they must let them go after the Lantern Festival, and deal with them only after the Lantern Festival. Unless it is a particularly important matter, it will be dealt with urgently.

    However, at this moment, Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s desk was filled with memorials to impeach Wang Shouren, many of which were rushed from Nanjing.

    "Wang Shouren not only failed to suppress the rebels, but instead provided them with food and clothing. He also ransacked the homes of our gentry, and the huge wealth he gained was directly distributed to the mob. Such appeasement and nourishment, and harm to the children of the gentry, will definitely shake our Ming Dynasty.  The country, the country, the country and the foundation.¡±

    "If things continue like this, where is the majesty of the imperial court?"

    "From now on, ordinary people in the city who are slightly dissatisfied can gather together to cause trouble. Not only will they not be punished, they will even be treated kindly."

    "I request your Majesty to thoroughly investigate this matter, and be sure to restore peace and tranquility to Jiangnan, uphold justice for our fellow citizens, and safeguard the majesty and laws of our Ming Dynasty!"

    Emperor Hongzhi looked at the memorial in his hand, his expression extremely ugly.

    We have already reached this point, and these people are still here confusing right and wrong.

    Emperor Hongzhi had already known clearly about the affairs in Jiangnan through the eyes of the factory guards. The reason why there was such turmoil was not because the big businessmen, gentry, and big families in Jiangnan deliberately deliberately tried to squeeze Wang Shouren away.  During the Chinese New Year, the workers were not paid, and gangsters were hired to beat the workers. At the same time, they bribed the government officials and servants, ignored the workers who reported to the officials, and even beat the workers who reported to the officials.  There was nowhere to voice grievances, which eventually led to unrest involving hundreds of thousands of people.

    Although there were irregularities in Wang Shouren's handling, he acted decisively and quickly. He calmed down hundreds of thousands of rioting workers in a very short period of time, and paid the workers' wages in the shortest possible time.  They went back to celebrate the New Year happily.

    Injured workers will also be provided with timely assistance, and those who are disabled or dead will be given high compensation. This will quickly eliminate the dissatisfaction and resentment in the hearts of the workers, and ultimately quickly calm down a possible major turmoil.  Reduce losses to a minimum.

    Such an operation also made Emperor Hongzhi look at Wang Shouren with admiration. Originally, Emperor Hongzhi was worried about things in Jiangnan, and he might not have a good year this year.

    Who knew that Wang Shouren could quickly pacify the situation in such a short period of time, without any bloodshed or major turmoil. Hundreds of thousands of workers who had received their wages had gone back to celebrate the New Year happily. In the end, it was a big deal.  Make it a trivial matter.

    Wang Shouren¡¯s ability is undoubted, and the most important thing is that he knows the priorities of things, knows what is important and what is secondary, takes the overall situation into consideration, stabilizes the situation, and ensures the stability of Jiangnan.

    This made Emperor Hongzhi praise Wang Shouren greatly, and it was now clear through the factory guards that when something happened in Nanjing, Wang Shouren went to Songhu for an inspection and was not in Nanjing, so he was in the first place  Whether these things were handled within the time limit can be blamed on Wang Shouren.

    "Humph~"

    "If it weren't for the factory guard's eyes, I might not be able to tell the difference between black and white. So many officials are here to impeach Wang Shouren. Three people become tigers. Even if they are white, they must be called black.  To make it clear."

    "I really thought that I didn't know anything as before, and I was confusing right and wrong here."

    Emperor Hongzhi dropped the memorandum in his hand to the ground, and he was half angry to death.

    It was not that he was angry because such a big thing happened in Jiangnan. Emperor Hongzhi was angry because these ministers were confusing right and wrong.

    "I already know the Jiangnan incident clearly, but if I look at the memorials of these ministers impeaching Wang Shouren, the matter is completely different.

    In their words, the hundreds of thousands of mobs that appeared in Jiangnan this time were dissatisfied with the low wages, so they gathered under the leadership of thoughtful people to cause trouble, and even rebelled.

    Criticizing Wang Shouren not only did nothing, condoned these mobs and chaos, and lost the pressure and law of the court, but also sent troops to arrest distinguished scholars, and directly ransacked the homes of scholarly families and gentry families.

    Thinking back to the past, before Emperor Hongzhi reused the power of factory guards, he had a lot of trust in these civil servants. They would do whatever they said. Emperor Hongzhi trusted them very much.

    Now it seems that?In the past, I didn't know how I was played by these civil servants. I didn't know right and wrong at all. I was a completely manipulated puppet.

    This is the real reason why Emperor Hongzhi was angry.

    "Humph~"

    Emperor Hongzhi became angry just thinking about it. With a sweep of his hand, all the memorials on the desk were swept to the ground. Suddenly, all the little Huangmen, palace maids, etc. who were waiting around him were silent, not daring to make the slightest sound, for fear of being angry at this time.  Son of Heaven.

    Even Xiao Jing didn¡¯t dare to speak nonsense at this moment. He also knew the reason why Emperor Hongzhi was angry.

    "It seems that they haven't killed anyone in the past few years, so that they have healed their scars and forgotten the pain."

    "Send an order to Liu Jin and ask him to conduct a thorough investigation in Jiangnan. When he goes to Jiangnan, he must make sure that Jiangnan is completely clean."

    Emperor Hongzhi stood up and walked back and forth in his study. After thinking for a while, he coldly issued an order.

    "Yes~"

    Xiao Jing nodded quickly and went to handle the matter quickly.

    "Why bother to anger the emperor again and again? I don't know how many people will die now."

    Xiao Jing couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He knew the situation in Jiangnan very clearly through his factory guards. It was definitely not as simple as what he saw now. Many things should be investigated carefully.  .

    ¡­¡­

    At the Nanjing Railway Station, with the sound of whistles, a train coming from the capital slowly stopped on the high platform. Wang Shouren and many officials in Nanjing were already waiting patiently in the VIP aisle.

    "Hoo~"

    Liu Jin walked out of the carriage and looked at the Nanjing Railway Station in front of him.

    On the way here, I received a letter from Wang Shouren, and also received the emperor's order from the capital. Things have been settled, and the garrisons from various places have begun to move back. However, Emperor Hongzhi still left Liu Jin to command 30,000 troops in Nanjing.  The power of garrisoning troops.

    "It seems that His Majesty has murderous intentions this time. Without killing a group of people, it may be difficult to submit to His Majesty."

    Liu Jin looked cold, and the emperor's meaning could not be clearer.

    It¡¯s just that it would be unlucky to go on a killing spree during the Chinese New Year, and Liu Jin actually didn¡¯t like killing people, but as an imperial envoy, Emperor Hongzhi¡¯s intention was so clear that he wanted to kill a group of people.

    "Modan~"

    ¡°It¡¯s the New Year¡¯s Eve and something like this happens, which makes everyone have a bad New Year¡¯s Eve, and they deserve to die.¡±

    Thinking that at this time, he should actually be at home with his beautiful wife in his arms, enjoying the leisurely annual vacation, but now he had to brave the severe cold to come to Nanjing for a business trip, and had to be a knife in the hands of Emperor Hongzhi, Liu  Jin couldn't help but cursed.

    "When looking for trouble, you have to find a good time to do it, and find a better reason."

    "What's wrong? We have to use workers' wages to cause trouble. Hundreds of thousands of people really make a big fuss and become rebels. The first thing they will capture is Jinling City. You guys will  There¡¯s no escape.¡±

    ¡°I don¡¯t know how I¡¯m going to die by then. It¡¯s really more than success, more than failure. I don¡¯t know how many people will be implicated.¡±

    "That is, Lao Wang is here, taking very decisive and effective measures quickly to suppress a catastrophic disaster. If someone else had really regarded these hundreds of thousands of people as rioters and traitors, Nanjing would be at a loss at this moment.  , and even the whole of Jiangnan is probably in flames, with countless casualties."

    "It deserves to be killed, it really deserves to be killed, it is not a pity to die!"

    Thinking of this, Liu Jin understood why Emperor Hongzhi was so angry that he started killing people. These people really deserved to die. For their own selfish desires, they almost ruined the entire Jiangnan and even caused a huge turmoil in the Ming Dynasty.

    Since ancient times, natural disasters are not terrible, but man-made disasters are terrible.

    In the year of famine, the court provided timely relief and relief, and food was distributed to the victims in a timely manner. The victims had something to eat. When the disaster was over next year, there would naturally be nothing to worry about.

    Just be afraid. Officials have embezzled money and food for disaster relief, and profiteers have taken the opportunity to drive up food prices, making it difficult for the country to make money. In the end, the victims in the disaster area cannot survive, and some of them become bandits, commit crimes, or even worse.  , the officials forced the people to rebel, and war broke out everywhere.

    Now is not a year of famine. These people are able to deliberately not pay workers, hire local gangsters to beat workers, and bribe people from the government to prevent workers from redressing their grievances. Jinling is almost turning into a powder keg.  It exploded.

    Such a person is so abominable that even if he died a thousand or ten thousand times, it would not be an exaggeration.

    "Mr. Liu~"

    Liu Jin got off the train and was deep in thought. Wang Shouren brought many officials to Liu Jin and shouted in unison.

    "Hmm~"

    Liu Jin came back to his senses, nodded slightly, and glanced at the officials present.

    ¡°There were officials from the various prefectures and yamen in Southern Zhili, as well as officials from the Six Ministries of Nanjing, all of whom were looking at me eagerly.

    Liu Jin is the current Minister of Civil Affairs, holding great power and a popular figure around Emperor Hongzhi. If Liu Jin promotes an official, he is guaranteed to make you fly up like a rocket.

    Of course, this time such a major event happened in Nanjing. Liu Jin came to Nanjing as an imperial envoy, and he didn¡¯t know how many people would be thrown into disgrace by then.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)"
