Chapter 1584 How Can You Kill Yourself Like This? (Thanks to the Aston Magistrate for the Reward)

"The little girl has always been on good terms with her younger sister. This matter..." Beizhai hesitated, because one of the parties involved in this matter was her good sister. If she suffered misfortune because of this, Beizhai would definitely feel guilty.

"It's not her responsibility. I won't blame her. It's just that it's not a good thing for her. You can comfort her afterwards." Shen Long said.

That's all there is to it, Beizhai sighed in his heart, this matter is really too big, even if she doesn't say it, someone else will tell His Majesty, so it's better to say it on your own initiative, by the way, say something for your good sister In case she is also involved, it seems that His Majesty is still very tolerant to him.

After eating with Bei Zhai, the two of them had a tour in the imperial garden. Shen Long asked Bei Zhai to be sent away. There were several eunuchs who warded off evil spirits with her. Before leaving, Shen Long comforted: , "Don't worry, you won't be staying in Jiangnan for long, and you will be able to return to the capital soon, and I will definitely make an arrangement for you by then."

This girl is pretty good looking, so let her fulfill her wish and take her in. Shen Long saw that just as he finished speaking, a blush appeared on Beizhai's cheeks. It seemed that she understood.

After staying in Jinling for a few days, the Zongzheng Mansion, Taichang Temple, Jinyiwei and Dongchang have all selected personnel. In addition, the Jinling Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and the Inspectorate have also arranged suitable candidates. They will be responsible for examining the illegal activities of those clans. Although Jinling also has six departments and the Inspectorate, most of these departments are used to accommodate officials who have failed in the struggle, so they don't have many opportunities on weekdays, and now they are responsible for such an important task. Same.

If this errand was done well and caught His Majesty's eyes, wouldn't there be a chance to return to the capital? And this time we ransacked the house. These clans have accumulated countless wealth. Even if Jin Yiwei and Dongchang are watching over them, even if we dare not corrupt the law, we can always get some oil from such fat meat, right?

Therefore, no matter considering their own future or practical interests, these people will not let those clans go easily, and they must investigate their problems clearly.

Of course, no matter how big the problem is, Shen Long can't kill too many people. After all, these are the descendants of the old Zhu family. Influence, after all, this is an era that pays attention to the concealment of relatives, so when the time comes, these people will be removed from the genealogy.

If the crimes are too serious, find a place to confine them, and those who have lesser crimes, let them fend for themselves. Anyway, Shen Long's main purpose is to solve the problem of the overburden of the clan. As long as the court does not continue to spend this A sum of money is enough; then follow the old practice of the Song Dynasty, divide the clan into distant branches and near branches, and continue to reduce the number of clans.

After these people left, Shen Long left Jinling and didn't take care of the affairs of Jinling nobles for the time being. Anyway, according to the news from Beizhai, he would have a reason to kill a group of people after a while. The problem is solved naturally.

After leaving Jinling, Shen Long turned to Fengyang Mansion, which is the hometown of Zhu Yuanzhang. Since he wanted to worship Zhu Yuanzhang, it would be unreasonable not to go to Fengyang Mansion.

In the seventh year of Hongwu, Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang changed Zhongli Mansion to Fengyang Mansion. In the same year, the government moved from the ancient Haozhou City to the newly built Mingzhong Capital. Since then, Fengyang Mansion has become the Central Capital, alongside the capital in the north and Jinling in the south. It is the three major political centers of the Ming Dynasty; the central capital was built on the basis of the Nanjing Forbidden City, and it was planned and constructed with reference to the Palace Room Map. Tens of thousands of craftsmen, soldiers, civilians, etc. were mobilized from all over the country to build the central capital in Fengyang and build a city The palace is like the system of the capital.

There is also a left-behind department here, which has jurisdiction over 1,000 households of the eight guards, and there are more than 6,000 people in the squad army, high wall army, cao army, and new army guarding the tomb. They are supervised by a governor and an eunuch.

Many emperors of Ming Dynasty had repaired Zhongdu City,

However, in the eighth year of Chongzhen, Zhang Xianzhong attacked Fengyang. The local farmers hated the eunuchs guarding the mausoleum for being greedy and tyrannical. Xinghuangjue Temple, killed Zhu Guoxiang who stayed behind in Fengyang, and wiped out more than 4,000 Ming soldiers guarding the tomb.

Shen Long learned this lesson, so when he arrived in Fengyang, he first let the Tengxiang Four Guards and the Jingying soldiers control the army of Fengyang Mansion, and then took down the guarding eunuch and others. Lu Wenzhao showed For the evidence of these people, Shen Long directly chopped off their heads to comfort the local people, and confiscated their property and distributed them to them and the oppressed mausoleum guards.

The common people are still very good at fooling around, and there have always been emperors in China who are wise, and the hateful ones are the words of those corrupt officials, so the common people immediately felt grateful to Shen Long.

After finishing this matter, Shen Long had the nerve to pay homage to the ancestors of the Zhu family, and by the way, visit the Longxing Huangjue Temple where Zhu Yuanzhang became a monk; Lao Zhu rebelled when he was squeezed by corrupt officials and couldn't stand it. Corrupt officials even bullied people in his hometown. If this is not resolved, Shen Long really has no face to do these things.

After doing this, he arranged for people to help the people of Fengyang build water conservancy projects and plant improved crops. Although Shen Long, the flower drum of Fengyang, had never heard of it, the phrase "Say Fengyang, say Fengyang, Fengyang is a good place" ;Since Emperor Zhu came out, there has been a shortage of nine years in ten years." He still knows it. From this, it can be seen that the people here are suffering, and since they are here, they have to solve this problem.

Otherwise, when some disaster occurs and the people of Fengyang have to rebel, it will be a slap in the face for him.

After staying in Fengyang Mansion for more than a month, Shen Long just set off to return to the capital; after hearing that His Majesty planned to return to Beijing, the officials and nobles in the south of the Yangtze River were relieved. The head was looked at, and now he is finally going back, it seems that this test has passed.

Traveling eastward from Fengyang Mansion, along the south bank of Hongze Lake, they arrived in Baoying County within a few days, and then camped outside the county to rest and meet local officials.

After finishing all this work, Lu Wenzhao rushed to report, "Your Majesty, Beizhai has just sent a message!"

Shen Long took the note and saw that what Beizhai said last time had finally happened. Shen Long couldn't help but shook his head and sighed, "Hey, how can you be so deadly? I haven't left Jiangnan yet, you have to endure it. Can't you stop?"

"Decree, we will break out of the camp early tomorrow morning and prepare to return to Jinling!"
