Chapter 290

Wang Shouren has recently made a lot of noise in Fuzhou official circles. He, the prefect who took office temporarily, has a total of 10 magistrates under his command. During this period of time, none of these 10 people have been able to live in peace.

Anyway, they were called over by Wang Shouren every now and then, and then he held the Great Ming law and ordered them to collect taxes and grains as soon as possible.Naturally, the county magistrate can use various reasons to shirk and obey, but it is always okay if the boss wants to scold you.To scold is to commit the following offenses.

Wang Shouren was brought by the governor, and if he really pursued the criminals, as long as the governor nodded, the county magistrate could be sent to prison instead of going to the court.

So the 10 magistrates took turns to be trained,

So this group of people first scolded Wang Shouren in their hearts every day, and then smiled and went to the prefect's yamen to be scolded.

When a few people discuss it together, they will all agree to say: "It depends on how long you are proud, I will be anxious to kill you!"

A few days later, other prefectures and states also heard about this situation.

"I heard that the new magistrate was so anxious that his eyebrows were on fire. But in Changle County, Pingnan County, and Fuqing County, none of them can really receive taxes and rations. I see him, he is caught by the eyebrows and beards. I only know how to use brute force, but the result is that the movement is loud and the effect is not much."

Regarding the situation in Fuzhou, Kongrui in Jianning Prefecture and Lu Mengguang in Yanping Prefecture are actually watching. If Fuzhou cannot be managed, it will be even more difficult for these prefectures. It is normal that they cannot complete the task.

Even if the governor and chief envoy blame it, Fuzhou will stand in the way.The one surnamed Wang is that you and yourselves can’t collect food, which shows that there are indeed difficulties, and it’s not that we people don’t cooperate.

Lu Mengguang was in a good mood, "I know this person. The son of Wang Hua, Minister of the Ministry of War in Nanjing, was relegated to Guizhou as a postman just after being awarded a Jinshi in the 12th year of Hongzhi. Thanks to the shadow of his father's generation, he was restored to the head of the Ministry of War. It seems that you are not young, but you have no experience as an official at all. I think when we first came, we would have a headache when we met magistrates who cooperated with you openly and opposed you secretly. Now everyone is doing this to him, so he is of course anxious. gone."

It is indeed logical to say this.

Past experience, realistic performance... a perfect fit.

So the atmosphere in the room is still relatively relaxed. Although they are all facing an enemy, they don't have to be tense all the time. They still have to smile when they encounter good news.

Zhang Yiwen was relatively restrained, he said: "Your Majesty, Lord Yingjuan, sent someone to Fujian, and it shouldn't be a simple faction. We still have to continue to look at what this person is like."

Kong Rui, the magistrate of Jianning Prefecture, was quite complacent, "Anyway, let's delay it for a while. Now that the summer grain cannot be harvested, there is no rush for one day, two days, and three days. At that time, the governor will be fine, and the chief executive will be in a hurry." No matter what, they can't explain to His Majesty. His Majesty will remember so many memorials to impeach Fengxi before. Once His Majesty doubts them, they will die soon."

This plan is actually right.

On the other hand, it is already August, and basically Fujian will know what happened in the capital in July.

While everyone was talking and laughing,

Suddenly a servant came in, walking in small steps, looking a little anxious, he touched Zhang Yiwen's side, and whispered something in his ear.

Both Kong Rui and Lu Mengguang were drinking tea, pretending not to be eavesdropping, and indeed they couldn't hear them either.

But after hearing a 'boasting' sound, Zhang Yiwen stood up and then fell down and bumped into the table and chairs beside him. There was a constant humbling sound, which attracted the attention of Kong and Lu.

When I looked up at Zhang Yiwen again, I saw his face was pale, his lips were trembling, his face was frightened, and he was in a mess.

"What's wrong with Boss Zhang? Has something serious happened?"

"Did Wang Shouren do something?" Lu Mengguang scolded the boy, "Help your master up quickly! Boss Zhang, don't panic, tell us what happened! Let's figure out a solution together."

"... Man. He was arrested!" Zhang Yiwen's voice was hoarse, as if all the strength in his body had been sucked away.

"Who? Who got caught?"

"People from Beijing!"

Kong and Lu looked at each other, people from Beijing?

People in Beijing were arrested, but Zhang Yiwen reacted like this... Could it be?

"Is it the Prime Minister of the Taipu Temple?!"

Zhang Yitian, a member of the Zhang clan!

This person is a fourth-rank official, and the actual power of the Taipu Temple is constantly increasing under the current emperor's rule. All the officials in it are within the emperor's sight. As long as they perform well, their future will not be bad.

Just like Liang Chu, the former Minister of the Taipu Temple, is now the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Officials.

In comparison, Kong Rui and Lu Mengguang, the same fourth-rank officials, are much worse than Taipu Sicheng.There are 13 provinces in the two capitals of the Ming Dynasty, how many prefects and prefectures, and how many of them are known by the emperor's name.

For ordinary people, if there is an official who works in the Taipu Temple in the family, then it is safe to protect the family and there will be no problem.

Because the magistrates will always consider whether this person will be promoted in the future. Once he changes himself and becomes the Shaoqing of Taipusi, or some servant, it will be completely different.

Zhang Yi burst into tears, "Besides him, who else?!"

Kong Rui asked anxiously: "Do you know why? If it's not a big mistake, you should be able to find a way to remedy it. Brother Yitian works in Taipu Temple, most of the colleagues there are familiar with him, and he is usually generous and loyal, At this time, if you ask in the past, it is not without chance. For example, Tai Pu Si Qing and Shao Qing are officials who are often summoned by His Majesty, and His Majesty also trusts them. If they can intercede, Brother Yi Tian may be able to turn the crisis into safety! "

"That's right!" Lu Mengguang also echoed, "Boss Zhang, don't be in a hurry, after all, he has to figure out the problem. And this news needs to be confirmed again. His Majesty Taipusi attaches great importance to it, and the officials who can be elected are also talented. Both moral and moral, Ming Jun has cherished talents since ancient times, Brother Yitian is even more prudent in his actions, besides, we don’t know if it’s true right now!”

"That's true, that's true..." Zhang Yiwen muttered continuously, and he was indeed panicked at that moment.

After all, this matter was too much, once Zhang Yitian was arrested, it would not be his fault alone.The whole family will suffer from it.

Business will be snatched by other people with official background...

It is also impossible for him to talk to the majestic court magistrate with the posture he has today.

To be honest, he is a businessman, not Zhang Yitian, without his official background, why should he gain a foothold here?

Zhang Yiwen asked the boy next to him, "Tell me again, how did the news come about? Why was the old man arrested?!"

The boy was also afraid, and said tremblingly, "Our people only said that the old man was arrested very suddenly, and the specific reason is that we are still inquiring about it. Compared with the past, the old man didn't do anything special, nothing more than There is a memorial to impeach Fengxi. As for whether it is accurate, the villain cannot confirm, the villain is just relaying what we said to the master."

Zhang Yiwen's face was not relaxed, it didn't look like a fake.

It is impossible to transmit this kind of information wrongly.

"This cripple!" Boss Zhang knocked on the wooden table fiercely, "He must have said something on His Majesty's side. He deceived His Majesty. This is blatant revenge! A dignified chief minister actually acted Such a thing!"

Kong and Lu were also shocked when they heard that, "Cripple Feng is too merciless. Even though he is a close minister of the emperor who came out of the attendant's room, his behavior should not be so domineering. It just doesn't suit him at all. To kill someone?"

"Now it's more about what he says and what His Majesty believes. As a courtier, with such great favor, he should have persuaded His Majesty to reduce taxes and penalties, but he is so good that he even took private revenge. Zhang had a grudge against him, so he took revenge on those in the capital. Brother Yitian. But what is the relationship between Fujian and Brother Yitian who is far away in the capital? With such a narrow mind, he must be a traitor!"

A few of them sprayed a few words like this indiscriminately, but emotions couldn't solve the problem.

After much deliberation, Zhang Yiwen still handed over to Kong Rui and Lu Mengguang, "Master Kong Rui and Lu Mengguang, I implore you two not to spread the matter about the arrest of the clan brothers. If there is someone who can help the villain, I also implore the two palace venerables to lend a helping hand, this villain will never forget your kindness and virtue, and if there is anything that needs to be done, this villain will never refuse."

This is already very blatant.

Kong and Lu were naturally putting on an official air, and hummed softly, "I also have some classmates in the capital. Let me write a letter first. If I can help, then of course I will help each other and support each other. This is what it should be. Boss Zhang, if you come here first today, we will stop bothering you. In short, don't panic about big things."

The two of them left with the excuse of 'let him get busy slowly', but in fact there was already a sense of distance.

No matter how righteous Kong Rui and Lu Mengguang said, the news that Zhang Yitian was suddenly arrested in the capital was really surprising.

Because the timing was too coincidental.

These two people went outside, and they had to perform it again.

Lu Mengguang said: "Brother Kong, according to my brothers, Zhang Yitian's luck is more than luck this time. If one day you want to go to the governor's office, remember to bring me with you."

Kong Rui was quite helpless, and shook his sleeves and said, "When the mountains and rains are about to come, you still have mutual suspicion with me?!"

"Then what are you going to do here?" Lu Mengguang pouted his lips and motioned to Mrs. Zhang in the room.

Their minds are very simple, Mrs. Zhang seems to have an accident... The catastrophe is imminent, so who will save him at this time?

"For the time being, we're going too far, and he will tell us soon. Let's think of a way to talk about it."

Zhang Yiwen also had complicated thoughts here.

At this time, there was news of the arrest in Jingli, which clearly showed that the imperial court had an opinion on the Zhang family.Zhang Yiwen smiled, he was too conceited, how could the imperial court control him as a small merchant's family?

Without the power of the government, he will be unable to eat anywhere in the future.Kong Rui and Lu Mengguang are not good people either, so they probably thought how to escape.

At this time, Zhang Yiwen thought of the chief envoy's yamen, and the governor's mansion...
