Chapter two hundred and fifty-four troubles one after another
He Laosan was lazily wrapped in a cotton-padded jacket at the gate of the Chief Envoy's Yamen, enjoying the early winter sun. Just when he felt sleepy, he heard a woman shouting loudly outside the Yamen.
"Li Bingbei said, get out of here. Do you want to drive all the Tao family to death? Today I'm here, so just go ahead and beat me to death now."
He Laosan immediately disappeared from his drowsiness, and looked at the woman with wide eyes in surprise. He saw a woman in her thirties, with five or six followers, rushing towards the Yamen menacingly.
He Laosan's brain immediately short-circuited. He had never encountered a common person who dared to come to the gate of the Chief Envoy's Yamen and openly insult the officials. However, He Laosan would definitely not let the woman in, so he immediately talked with some concierges.
The government officials at the entrance came to stop the woman and her group.
However, a smart government servant like He Laosan would definitely not go too far. Looking at the woman, she looked like she was either crazy or someone she relied on, so He Laosan and the others just blocked the woman's way forward.
I don't dare to do anything excessive.
But there was still a yamen servant who didn't know how to look at mountains and rivers. He still put on a domineering look and shouted at the woman: "Which family are you from? Do you want to die when you come to the Chief Envoy's yamen to cause trouble? Be careful, I will arrest you."
Go to jail and give you a good treatment."
But as soon as the government officer finished speaking, he saw the entourage behind the woman, took out the short wooden sticks they carried with them, and hit the government officer head and head indiscriminately.
Things happened in a hurry, and He Laosan and other government officials were all empty-handed at this time, so when they saw the followers taking out short wooden sticks to beat the government officials, they could not help, and they were afraid of harming Chi Yu, so they immediately dispersed to both sides.
At this time, the concierge of the Yamen also heard the noise and rushed out. The concierge was also close to the Chief Envoy. As soon as he saw the chaotic scene outside the door, he immediately sent someone to report the news to the Yamen and shouted loudly.
He shouted: "Everyone stop it!"
Fortunately, the shouting of the concierge really stopped the fight between the two sides. The concierge also relaxed a little, and just when he was about to use his power to yell at the woman a few more words, he suddenly found that the woman's face was very familiar.
The concierge quickly searched for the woman's situation in his memory, and suddenly thought of who the woman was.
The concierge was secretly complaining, why did this aunt come to make trouble again? In desperation, the concierge had no choice but to put on a smile and asked the woman: "Why does Mrs. Tao have time to come to Kaifeng City again?"
What's going on at the Yamen today?"
…
In the Ming Dynasty, Bingbeidao was not a separate official position. He was often held concurrently by the Chief Secretary or the Deputy Envoy. Li Bingbeidao was also a Chief Secretary who participated in politics and served concurrently. Therefore, his office location is also
Of course it was set up in the Chief Envoy's Yamen.
When Mr. Tao arrived at the gate of the Chief Envoy's Yamen to cause trouble, officials at all levels of the Chief Secretary's Office immediately sent out their staff and invited Mr. Tao into the concierge to learn more about the situation.
But after understanding the ins and outs of the matter, those officials felt that it was quite difficult. Each of these things had their own reasons, and getting wet hands with flour was a matter of wet hands. So at this time, no one just wanted to sweep the door.
It's snowing, and no one is willing to come forward and wipe the mess caused by Li Bing Beidao.
Moreover, in the past, Li Bingbei forced Tao's husband to death. From a moral perspective and in terms of the official rules of the Ming Dynasty, Tao was in a place worthy of sympathy. So now other officials can only wish Li Bingbei the best.
If you ask for it, you will be blessed.
Of course, Li Bingbei would not directly argue with Tao, a shrew, so he could only hide in the chief envoy's office and be a coward. However, the saying that officials protect each other is not true, and the Henan chief envoy also directly
An order was issued to block Mrs. Tao and others outside the yamen and prevent them from entering the yamen and causing any trouble.
When Mrs. Tao saw that the Chief Envoy's Yamen had nothing to do, she immediately turned to the Henan Governor's Yamen... In this way, in a short period of time, all the main Yamen in Henan were harassed by Mrs. Tao
.
Of course, this kind of thing has made the official circles in Henan a little anxious, because now the market in Kaifeng City has spread this matter as a joke. Some idle people also follow people like Tao every day, watching them arrive.
All the major government offices in Henan went to cause trouble.
At this time, Li Bingbei said that it was one thing to play hide-and-seek with Tao, but he had to do the serious business of urging Wu Shigong's Runing Battalion to go on an expedition!
However, because of Tao's entanglement, Li Bingbeidao could not leave Kaifeng City, so he sent several men to Runing Prefecture with transfer orders from the court and official documents from the Henan Yamen, and asked Guan Kesong, the prefect of Runing Prefecture, for help.
, urging Wu Shigong to send troops.
In Li Bing Beidao's mind, the procedures for dispatching troops were complete, and the military pay of the Runing camp was in his hands. Unless Wu Shigong's Runing camp wanted to rebel, otherwise, they had to send troops obediently?
But what Li Bingbeidao didn't expect was that when the people he delivered official documents arrived at the Runing camp, although Wu Shigong's staff received them politely, they refused Li Bingbeidao's order to mobilize troops.
The reason for this refusal is very strong: because all the soldiers in the Runing camp are "sick", and their "sickness" is "hunger disease". Due to insufficient military pay, all the soldiers in the Runing camp are starving, and now they are almost dying.
Starved to death.
As the garrison of the Runing Camp, Mr. Wu Shigong and Mr. Wu have always shared the joys and sorrows with the officers and soldiers, so now the garrison Wu and the soldiers of the Runing Camp will starve to death together.
What Wu Shigong wrote in his reply to Li Bingbeidao was even more irritating: "I hope the court will consider my hard work and prepare a thin-skinned coffin for me! After I kick my legs, I hope that the court will prepare a thin-skinned coffin for me!"
Buried among the green mountains and green waters, let my heroic soul protect the Ming Dynasty for thousands of years!"
After reading this reply, Li Bingbeidao's nose almost became angry: "Return to the heroic spirit? It's better to be a bastard! If the tiger doesn't show its power, do you think I'm a sick cat? I can't do anything about that shrew for the time being. Good men can't get along with each other.
It’s a female fight! But you are a martial artist, and I have no less than 108 tricks to deal with you.”
Li Bingbeidao just wanted to send people to capture Wu Shigong back to his yamen, but something happened again in the official circles of Henan. The military attachés from Runing Mansion and Guidewei wrote to the yamen at all levels in Henan. For the yamen in Henan, only Guidewei and Guidewei were mobilized.
The soldiers in Runing Prefecture did not mobilize the soldiers in other places in Henan Province, which caused injustice.
The actions of these military attaches headed by Zhao Ming did have factors in Wu Shigong's series of gifts. But Zhao Ming and others also considered their own interests.
The troops mobilized in Henan have always been transferred to military attachés and military households such as the Guide Guards (many of the key soldiers of Wu Shigong's Runing Battalion were from Guide Guards military households). In case there is a war in the future, Guide Guards will be mobilized.
Hasn’t it become a habit among Henan officials?
These days, who is willing to leave their hometown to fight in the war? If you have the strength, you might as well marry a few concubines in your hometown for fun. The words of these fellow villagers holding together are not lies!
Moreover, the reasons given by these military attachés are not unreasonable. The Ministry of War's transfer order, of course, only requires Henan to mobilize 3,000 soldiers. He will not specifically specify which soldier from Henan.
Wu Shigong's decision to set out the Runing camp was nothing more than a private letter written by Zhou Yanru, the chief assistant, to the governor of Henan. Although in official circles, this matter was tacitly stated, it could not be put on the table.
Therefore, the soldiers from Guidewei and Runing Camps have been mobilized, and other soldiers from Henan have not been mobilized. This cannot be justified in terms of regulations.
Besides, although the Ming Dynasty was a place of nobles and lowly military officials, when the hereditary military attachés like Zhao Ming broke up with each other, the civil servants had no way to punish them.
The appointment and removal of any officials in the Ming Dynasty were arranged by the imperial court and ultimately determined by the emperor. Local officials did not have the power to appoint or remove any officials.
And there is nothing we can do about hereditary military attachés like Zhao Ming! Their grandfather's grandfather's grandfather... used to fight with Grandpa Taizu. If you want to deprive them of their hereditary official positions without any reason, what do you civil servants think?
So what? Do you also want to bring down the hereditary emperor?
But at this time, no matter how slow the officials were, they came back to their senses, connected these three incidents, and then thought about the relationship between the parties involved in the trouble. They immediately discovered that the people hiding in the main camp of Runing Camp
, it’s the Wu Shou Bei who is trembling with a sinister smile.
