Chapter 0212 Homecoming!

Wealth does not return home, just like walking at night in brocade clothes

This is the first time to go home since arriving in the capital.

Zhang Haogu sat in the carriage and couldn't help but yawned.

But I couldn't help but think of Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu, who had made a fortune, wanted to return to Jiangdong, return to his hometown in fine clothes, and show off his success in front of his father and fellow villagers.

Then, he thought of Zhang Juzheng. When Lao Zhang returned to his hometown, he specially built a luxurious sedan that was never seen before.

Zhang Juzheng's large sedan is a luxury car among luxury cars. It has an area equivalent to a room and is divided into two parts: a reception room and a bedroom. There is a bathroom inside and you can work on the sedan. There are two children waiting on you. It is just a sedan.

The husband wants to have 32 people.

This luxury car was given to him by Zhending Prefecture in Hebei Province. This super luxurious sedan far exceeded the official "four-person sedan" regulation.

During Zhang Juzheng's journey of more than a thousand miles from the capital to Jiangling, he "walked every five steps to a well to clear the road dust, and every ten steps to a hut to prepare a tea stove." Wherever the luxurious sedan went, the road should be widened and the bridges should be

Reinforcement can be described as mobilizing troops and disturbing the officials and the people.

The most outrageous thing is that Zhang Juzheng talked about clean government along the way, and also investigated and punished local officials who bribed his subordinates.

It can only be said that Niubi is still Zhang Juzheng Niubi.

Nowadays, Zhang Haogu's ostentation is naturally not as good as Zhang Juzheng's. He does not have a sedan chair carried by thirty-two people, and he does not allow anyone to give him anything. He just rides in a carriage.

However, the scene was not small, with a thousand yamen soldiers clearing the way. In addition, there were twelve powerful and invincible general cannons. As for the squatting tiger cannons, there were more than sixty of them.

Everyone is well-trained.

In fact, if he could help it, he still wouldn't want to engage in such a big battle. Not to mention the enemy of ten thousand people, it would be no problem to at least fight ten of them one by one. With Zhang An beside him, who has the courage of ten thousand men, it would be no problem.

Basically, the life of a male servant is not in danger.

However, it is impossible not to bring so many people.

The current problem in Shandong is banditry. On the one hand, these more than a thousand yamen soldiers are here to suppress the banditry, and on the other hand, they are also here to kill people. If the New Deal continues to be implemented, especially when the peasants are assigned to the farm and the gentry are all paid as errands, this is offending.

People's things.

If someone in the local area really doesn't open his eyes and wants to kill him, claiming that a mob is causing a riot, he must have soldiers on hand to suppress the riot.

This is the late Ming Dynasty, and anything can happen.

I looked at the information I collected.

Kong Yinzhi, courtesy name Maojia and nickname Duihuan. The sixty-fourth generation grandson of Confucius, he was the son of Kong Shangtan and the eldest grandson of Kong Zhenning. His great-uncle was Kong Zhenqian, Duke Yansheng.

Speaking of which, Zhang Haogu really knew about this guy's previous life.

Occasionally when I was browsing the web, I saw a picture of the great sage’s braids, and then I learned about Kong Yinzhi.

This guy's shamelessness could really make the great sage jump out of his grave and slap this shameless bastard hard.

In the second year of Apocalypse, Kong Yinzhi was allowed to attack and confer the title of Holy Duke Yan. In the seventh year of Apocalypse (1627), he was appointed the crown prince and Taibao; in the third year of Chongzhen, he was appointed the crown prince and Taifu of Jin.

It seems to be an unparalleled favor, right?

Then, in the first year of Shunzhi, Kong Yinzhi expressed his willingness to surrender to the Qing Dynasty in the "Chujin Biaowen": "All countries admire the rule of the Reform; the principles of morality are upright, the benevolence of Jiuzhonggengshi, the return of the country, and the universal celebration.

Respect His Majesty the Emperor, inherit the power of heaven, support the people with virtue, look at the loftiness of the sacred learning, and stagger in fear of others; look up to the brilliance of the emperor, and admire the scenery deeply..."

In the second year of Shunzhi (1645), the imperial court issued an order to shave their heads. Kong Yinzhi led the prestigious clan members to take the lead in shaving their heads and presented the "Head-Shaving Memorial" to the Qing court.

He took the lead in shaving all his hair, not only shaving his head, but also shaving it with great fanfare. The Confucius Mansion set up an incense table and held a grand shaving ceremony, which made the tribesmen shave their hair and change their clothes, which set an example.

In short, when Zhang Haogu saw cerebral hemorrhage, Confucius wanted to jump out of his grave.

As for the land in the hands of the Kong family.

Zhang Haogu felt that his family's land should be very large, 30,000 hectares of land, but the Kong family's land was at least 200,000 hectares, nearly seven times as much as his own.

If you don't ruthlessly peel off these bastards, you would be really sorry for the people of Shandong.

He closed the information in his hand.

Banditry in Shandong is still very serious today. In the second year of Tianqi, Xu Hongru rebelled, causing extremely serious damage to Shandong's economy. Although he was eradicated by the court in time, more people still lost their land.

In the third year of the Apocalypse, Zhang Haogu implemented the New Deal and returned Hu Xian to the government. However, local officials increased apportionments, raised exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and caused more people to lose their land. Although afterward, Zhang Haogu forced

Local officials refunded taxes, forcing these people to honestly return the traded land to the people everywhere.

It cannot be said that there is no effect, but the underlying problem has not been solved.

The annexation of land has only slowed down. There are more people without land and no jobs. Gradually, large-scale refugees have formed. These people either work part-time, beg for food, or are deceived into joining the army.

Then he was sent to Liaodong to beheaded.

The governor of Shandong was named Wu Zhiwang, and there was also a governor of Denglai.

The governor of Shandong separated from the governor of Denglai, and the two prefectures of Dengzhou and Laizhou were subordinate. Mainly because the slaves occupied the Liaodong Peninsula and coastal islands, the threat to the Ming Dynasty became increasingly serious.

And this is something that some people have suggested. Denglai is located on the north bank of Port Arthur, which is the main throat area. Chengyi has a large general and can station a large number of land and sea troops.

Today, Denglai has become the frontier separated by water from the southern Liaoning occupied by Hou Jin. It shoulders the important task of regaining Liaodong and is also the logistics transfer and training base for the Liaohai front.

The governor of Denglai was Yuan Keli, who was considered a talented person. He promoted Mao Wenlong to a heavyweight nobleman. He did not belong to any eunuch party. Originally, in March of the fourth year of Tianqi, Yuan Keli was attacked by the imperial censor seven times and asked himself to serve. Finally, he got

Ming Dynasty’s approval.

However, the one who was scolded the most in the four years of Tianqi was Zhang Haogu. Zhu Youxiao was a man who killed people with a knife. The Donglin Party was struggling to the death. Naturally, no one came to trouble Yuan Keli. Therefore, Yuan Keli, the governor of Denglai,

It's quite moisturizing when dry.

The current situation in Shandong is also very complicated, with the disaster of bandits, the disaster of land annexation, and in addition the disaster of soldiers.

Yuan Keli is a talented person. When Zhang Haogu was the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, he came to Zhang Haogu every day to ask for money. Now he also wants the invincible general cannon and the squatting tiger cannon. He even reported it to the court, hoping to get it.

Some of the government soldiers came to fill in.

It's easy to talk about money, and it's easy to talk about the invincible generals and artillery, but forget about the yamen soldiers, which are an important tool to deter the Donglin Party.

The carriage slowly stopped.
