Chapter 700 Someone has claimed to be emperor privately
It is a good thing that the students are full of enthusiasm...and they are really indispensable for preaching laws and changing customs.
It's just that these students are also the treasures of the imperial court. If something happens, no one can afford it.
Zhang Ximeng and Liu Sanwu were walking and said: "This time, we have to make arrangements. One student, one soldier, plus local veterans, a team of at least three people. We are going to publicize the imperial decree and change folk habits.
, not to fight against injustice, nor to risk your life against anyone. When you encounter a situation, you must report it to the court and let the government come forward to solve it."
Liu Sanwu nodded repeatedly, "What Prime Minister Zhang said is true. Over the years, the local government has spent a lot of effort to suppress bandits many times. Speaking of which, there are no such desperadoes as the bandits who kill people and steal goods, the thieves who gather in the mountains and forests, and so on.
"Many, it is much safer to go to work locally. Otherwise, I would be really reluctant to send the students out. If anything goes wrong, it will be difficult to handle."
Liu Sanwu said and glanced at Zhang Ximeng secretly.
After all, Zhang Shuning sneaked into Jimin Academy, and even he, the mountain leader, didn't know about it. It was really embarrassing. But after careful consideration, they didn't say anything bad about Zhang Shuning. On the contrary, they praised Zhang Shuning as much as possible... The only problem is that
He met a shrew, bumped into the prince, and almost had a big accident.
Liu Sanwu was really a little worried.
But it is obvious that Aunt Han did not end well either. Her current situation is very bad.
The main reason was that Zhang Shuning took decisive measures and found fifteen thousand guan in treasure banknotes from her home, as well as other valuable gifts that were discounted to several thousand guan.
With so much money, it would be impossible for her to be a matchmaker for ten lifetimes and make love every day, so she could not save so much money.
What's more, letters exchanged between Aunt Han and Han were found at her home.
Roughly speaking, as long as the media protection is successful, there will be thousands of dollars in treasure.
Just this marriage, once it is completed, will cost more than 30,000 yuan, and you will also gain a good relative.
You laugh at Second Aunt Han for being so cowardly, and Second Aunt Han laughs at you for being poor all your life!
For this generous reward, she took it for granted that she risked her life.
But after the incident was revealed, there was nothing that could be done.
With so much money, there is no doubt that this is not an ordinary insurance company.
In addition, letters were used as testimonials, huge sums of money were collected, matchmaking was forcibly secured against the wishes of the parties concerned, and marriages were facilitated... This is exactly in line with the identification of disguised human trafficking.
The lightest crime for this crime is exile.
What's even worse is that Aunt Han has done more than just one bad thing over the years. She has also participated in human trafficking at least three times, mainly selling baby girls on behalf of others.
In some villages, although girls can also divide the fields, it will take twenty years for the next division of the fields after one division of the fields... Some parents still think that girls are a burden and cannot wait for the next division of the fields.
, you have to marry someone else.
So these parents try to get the girls away.
Second Aunt Han took the job. She took advantage of the opportunity of walking around the streets to contact buyers and sold the girl to a rich man.
Most of these girls were treated as slaves or child brides. Due to the prohibition by the imperial court, they did not dare to do so. They could only imprison the girls at home and were not allowed to go out. If they were disobedient at all, they would be beaten or scolded.
After finding out all these things, it is not surprising that Second Aunt Han treats Xia Zhifeng like this. She is such a person who will do anything for money. In her eyes, there is no such thing as family affection or natural justice.
It's a big deal. As long as she can make money, she dares to take any risk!
There are three cases of human trafficking, plus one disguised human trafficking... For such a big crime, not even the King of Heaven can save Second Aunt Han.
"Xia Zhifeng, are you thinking about your second aunt's case?" Zhang Shuning said thoughtfully: "Although we are related, I suggest you not to be such a bad person."
Xia Zhifeng nodded and sighed: "I won't be so stupid... It's not just me who is the victim this time, but also the other three girls. Their lives were almost ruined by the second aunt. She deserves to be punished, no matter what
Either way, it’s all your own fault!”
"I, I really wonder, if I hadn't met you, if I hadn't become my teacher, if I hadn't had these classmates and fellow villagers... wouldn't I have been married off by my second aunt in a few years... and then I would have been like an old sow?
Just the same, give birth to a lot of children, be beaten, scolded, ravaged, live humblely, and die silently..."
"No!" Zhang Shuning suddenly said loudly: "Don't think wildly. Now that you have met me, I will not let you encounter this situation. You are a person appreciated by my father. You will have an extremely bright future and great achievements."
Use your time to realize your dreams, verify that the earth is round, and explore the mysteries of heaven and earth. You will go down in history because of your achievements!"
Xia Zhifeng was slightly startled, then suddenly smiled and said: "Zhang Shuning, although you have concealed something, your nature is still the same. You are a kind person, and it is my luck to meet you! I will no longer think wildly."
Xia Zhifeng said again: "But what about you? What should you do? Now that your identity has been exposed, other students have gone to local places to preach laws and change customs. Now you can only stay in Jimin School. Isn't it miserable for you?"
"
Zhang Shuning smiled bitterly, "What else can I do? I can't take any more risks, right? It's okay for me to be alone. If it affects other students, it will be my sin."
"Then, then you are studying in the school?"
Zhang Shuning looked around, then lowered his voice and said with a smile: "I am seizing the time to understand what dad said... Then I will return to Yingtian in name."
"In name?" Xia Zhifeng was stunned, "You, you want to go somewhere else?"
"Um!"
Zhang Shuning nodded, "I have already thought about it. I will first choose a suitable place to study with peace of mind and improve my abilities. When one day, I can be worthy of being the son of Prime Minister Zhang, I will come back. Don't worry, time will not pass
It’s been too long. I want to practice literature and martial arts and train myself to be an all-rounder in both literature and martial arts.”
Zhang Shuning's fighting spirit was high, and his haste when facing Second Aunt Han made him realize his shortcomings.
He still needs to work harder, otherwise he will be left behind by these talented classmates and become irrelevant before long. The strong sense of crisis prompted Zhang Shuning to make the decision to leave Jimin Academy.
Xia Zhifeng thought for a while and whispered: "In this case, I will complete my studies as soon as possible, and then go to Yingtian, the National History Museum, and Qintian Prison to continue my research! I...wait for you!"
Zhang Shuning nodded vigorously, "Don't worry, when I settle down, I will write you a letter to tell you my current situation. One letter every ten days!"
"Okay! I will also reply to you. I look forward to our reunion!"
…
After making the agreement, Zhang Shuning studied harder and harder, racing against time and even walking while walking.
Unlike Zhang Shuning, the other classmates, including Hu Yan, Huang Guan, and Jing Qing, were all caught up in the busy schedule. They had to complete their studies, and they also had to go to places and villages to preach to the people.
Zhu Jiajun also had this kind of preacher. At that time, there were not only preachers, but also a singing team... The main purpose was to explain the principles of equalizing land to everyone.
At that time, it was also warmly welcomed by the people.
Over the past few years, the propaganda of the Ming army seems to have regressed a lot.
Things are so helpless, if you don't make progress, you will be left behind.
This time the students went to promote laws and change customs, which was equivalent to the Ming Dynasty's propaganda machine starting up again.
Immediate results were achieved soon.
First of all, there are these three aunts and six women. In fact, the public has not had a good opinion of them for a long time.
There are countless curses of all kinds... The main reason is not what their industry is, but that these people regard their industry as a cover.
In private, he spreads gossip everywhere, instigates troubles, and even deceives and kidnaps, using all possible means.
They persuade people to donate money for incense to the temple, get rid of evil spirits, pray for blessings and eliminate disasters, and save ancestors... In short, they use all kinds of ways to defraud money.
Many families were separated from their wives and their families were destroyed by them.
If you want to deal with them, these old devout women are themselves mediators, and they all do good things. They often accept some godsons. With this group of people making noise, it would have been difficult to convict them in the past.
But since Zhang Ximeng identified these people, things have become easier. Students, veterans, local government agencies, and the victims have united to form a huge force.
Bad guys who have done many evil things have been arrested one after another.
Those women who were always causing trouble suddenly became more honest.
Moreover, many abducted children have found their parents and their families have been reunited.
The social atmosphere should be cleared up.
As an advocate of this matter, Fang Xiaoru is very satisfied... He now sleeps less than two hours a day, often getting up before dawn and walking on the muddy mountain road to the village.
Sometimes he could visit more than a dozen villages in a day, and when he returned, the sky was already full of stars.
After returning, I still have to study and do questions. I am extremely busy, even staying up all night is normal.
But he never felt tired at all, and instead always had high morale.
On this day, Fang Xiaoru was just giving knowledge in the village and was about to go to the next village. Suddenly someone followed him out, caught up with Fang Xiaoru, and told him something.
"Not far from here, in Poyang Lake, there is someone who has ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, facing south and facing north! The palace queen has everything! An imperial envoy was sent to us a few days ago, telling us that we must pay the emperor a land tax. We thought about it,
Are there still two emperors in the Ming Dynasty?"
Fang Xiaoru was startled. Obviously, there was only one sun in the Ming Dynasty.
No need to ask, this is a fake!
Fang Xiaoru immediately returned, mobilized his troops, and investigated the situation. After seven days of preparation, he finally captured him in one fell swoop.
In total, one emperor, one right-hand man, one empress, seven concubines, one crown prince, two princes, and three other guards were captured... There were no eunuchs or soldiers.
In addition, there is a set of costumes modified into dragon robes and a jade seal carved out of a seal stone.
Seeing this result, everyone was dumbfounded, but since pretending to be the emperor was a serious crime of deceiving the emperor and treason, the memorial was quickly sent to Yingtian, asking Zhu Yuanzhang to make a decision...
