Three hundred and seventieth chapters governor Yamen
Huang Taiji was startled after hearing this. Shanhaiguan was definitely impassable, and it might not be appropriate to take a detour to Zhangjiakou. Firstly, it was too far. Secondly, Fan Yongdou and others had just been arrested over there, so it would be difficult to get through.
Thinking of this, he said to Ning Wanwo: "You pretend to be a refugee from Liaodong and flee to Dongjiang Town. If you go from Dongjiang to Denglai and then to the capital of the Ming Dynasty, you won't be conspicuous."
When Huang Taiji said this, Fan Wencheng thought of something and said quickly: "After the master reminded me, I remembered that there was movement in Shanhaiguan in the Ming Dynasty, so I am afraid there will be movement in Denglai. Brother Ning walked to the Dongjiang River and crossed
Denglai heading to the capital of the Ming Dynasty is really an excellent route, and you can explore the truth and reality on this road."
Huang Taiji didn't think of this level originally, because Dongjiang has completely ceased to pose a threat to Daikin since Mao Wenlong's death. But Fan Wencheng said this as if he had already thought of it before.
Huang Taiji felt very comfortable after hearing this. He smiled and said to Ning Wanwo: "Fan Qing's mouth is quick. He said what I meant before I said anything. Did Ning Qing hear clearly?"
Ning Wan, I have the intention of scolding Fan Wencheng 11,000 times in my heart. If this happens, his danger level will be greatly increased.
But Huang Taiji also said so, so he had no choice but to nod.
After the discussion, Jianlu immediately took action and began to act separately.
Zhong Jinwei, who is far away in Shaanxi, naturally does not know that history has changed a lot because of his butterfly effect.
The Eight Banners of the Mongolian Army and the Eight Banners of the Han Army are much earlier than in history. They were conceived in the third year of Chongzhen and are being gradually implemented.
Another point is that Huang Taiji eliminated dissidents and dominated the Jurchens much faster than in history, and the results were more significant.
At this time, Zhong Jinwei had just arrived in Yulin Town.
When he was on the road, he had quietly called the enthusiastic Wang Yan and ordered him to widely publicize the incident in Zhangjiakou. Therefore, as soon as the caravan arrived in Yulin Town with the army, the deeds of Zhongxing Hou in Zhangjiakou also followed.
Spread around.
On the second day after Zhong Jinwei arrived, Hong Chengchou asked Hong Chengchou to summon all the squires with IOUs in hand to the governor's Yamen to collect the army's pay.
The squires who received the notice began to gather in twos and threes at the governor's office. One of them, Ma Qinglin, a fur trader, had heard about the deeds of the Zhongxing Marquis in Zhangjiakou, and felt that it was not easy to get military pay, so he came to the governor's office with a little fear in his heart.
When he was approaching the governor's office, he saw a group of people riding on horseback in front of him. He found that the leader was Sun Buguang, who was related to the general in Yulin Town. He quickly ordered the bearer to catch up, and after they lined up, he stretched out his head.
Someone outside the sedan called out: "Brother Sun, are you going to collect the money you owe?"
Sun Buguang looked down, raised his hands and said, "No."
All this is actually nonsense. Sun Buguang was the one who took the lead in borrowing money in the first place. Now he is going in this direction. You don't have to guess to know that he is going to the governor's Yamen.
After Ma Qinglin made his opening remarks, he asked mysteriously: "Brother Sun, have you heard about the deeds of Marquis Zhongxing?"
Sun Buguang nodded, and then replied: "I've heard that he is a ruthless person."
Ma Qinglin stretched his head out a little more and asked again: "Brother Sun, do you think anything will happen if we go to the governor's Yamen?"
"What's the matter? He, the Marquis of Zhongxing, was ruthless in Zhangjiakou. That's because those Shanxi merchants and merchants violated the laws of the Ming Dynasty. Did we break the law? It was Hong Shatou, the governor of Yansui, who came to beg us to lend him money. It's all
If we act according to Ming law, what can Zhongxing Hou do to us? If he dares to waste this money or even use violence against us, we will file a complaint against him. I believe he has many political enemies in the capital, so I don’t believe him.
Can cover the sky with one hand!" Sun Buguang said nonchalantly as he swayed with the rise and fall of the horse's hooves.
When Ma Qinglin heard this, he felt relieved, but he didn't have any relatives of the generals, and he didn't have the same connections in the capital as Sun Buguang. He felt a little less confident and wanted to talk to Sun Buguang again.
, but he had already arrived at the gate of the governor's office.
The squires who had already gathered here gathered around when they saw Sun Buguang arriving.
Sun Buguang knew what these people were worried about when they gathered around him, so he calmly dismounted his horse and asked his servant to take the horse away. He clasped his fists, looked around and saluted, and said, "Don't worry, everyone, it's okay."
Ma Qinglin, who was getting off the sedan, squeezed into the crowd and repeated Sun Buguang's words, which emboldened these people a lot.
These squires gathered in several circles at the gate of the governor's office, whispering about various things about Marquis Zhongxing, while waiting for the appointed time to arrive.
They had basically calculated the time to arrive, so they didn't wait long at the yamen gate before a yamen servant came out to send a message and let them all in.
As soon as the dozen or so squires at the door heard this, they gathered around Sun Buguang, their core, and walked into the governor's office.
After entering the gate of the governor's office, the atmosphere suddenly changed. They found that it was filled with sergeants, all of whom were white-pole troops brought by Zhongxing Hou.
These sergeants were fully armed and held long guns. They stood on both sides, leaving only a distance for two people to walk side by side. They stared eagerly at the squires walking between them.
This silent and chilling momentum suddenly made the atmosphere tense. The squire who had just been relieved after hearing Sun Buguang's words became worried again.
Although Sun Buguang also felt the murderous aura coming towards his face, he still held his head high and took the lead to embolden those behind him. He did not believe that the officials of the imperial court could slap themselves in the face in broad daylight.
Under the bright sky, it violates the laws of the Ming Dynasty. Repaying debts has been a matter of course since ancient times.
By the time they reached the lobby of the Yamen, many people were sweating and their clothes were soaked.
When they came to the hall, they looked up and saw a young man sitting in the hall where the governor used to be, with the Dongchang officer standing behind him. Hong Zhongcheng, whom they were familiar with, was sitting on the right side of the young man.
Watch them.
These squires were all famous, including Ma Qinglin. At this time in the late Ming Dynasty, many scholars who had no intention of taking the imperial examination were also engaged in business, and no one thought it was abnormal.
Although they did not have to kneel, in the governor's hall, where there were many generals and all the people paying attention to them, several squires began to sweat and became a little uneasy.
"I've seen angels, I've seen Zhongcheng." Sun Buguang also felt uneasy. Wanting to change this suffocating atmosphere, he took the lead in saluting.
Zhong Jinwei said nothing and continued to stare at them. Marquis Zhongxing did not speak, and Hong Chengchou naturally did not speak first. He kept his original posture and looked at the people in the hall who had felt sorry for him in front of him.
In this atmosphere, the timid few squires began to think wildly, thinking that the ruthless man in the hall hated their interest rates for being too high and was thinking of how to kill them to establish their authority.
Sun Buguang felt the fear of his companions around him, and he himself was a little scared. At this time, the force he faced could crush them like chickens. But he still had hope in his heart. No matter how big this angel was, he would still be big.
However, Da Ming Lu also had people in the capital.
He felt that just standing like this was not an option, so he took the lead and bowed again, trying to break the suffocating silence.
But the few people in the hall acted as if Zhang Fei was still alive and asleep with his eyes open, and they still ignored them.
Finally, someone couldn't bear it anymore and took the IOU out of his pocket, ready to give up and ask for it back.
When Sun Buguang saw it, he took out his IOU first, and then said loudly: "Angel, Zhongcheng, the student is here to collect the loan, please accept the IOU."
This IOU was issued by Hong Chengchou. If you don't check it, you won't know if it is fake. What Sun Buguang means is whether it's time for you to pay.
One hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver is not a small amount of money, it is enough for some people to dare to take a certain degree of risk.
When Zhong Jinwei saw the sweat on the foreheads of these people, he stopped pretending to be cool and ordered: "Come on, give me all the IOUs in their hands to check their authenticity."
A Dongchang fan below heard the sound and walked over, collected all the IOUs from the hands of these squires, and presented them to Zhongxing Hou.
When these squires saw that the angel finally started to go through the process, they felt relieved and secretly sweated while watching Zhong Jinwei's movements.
After Zhong Jinwei got these IOUs, he read them one by one and cursed in his heart. The interest was several times the principal, and it was a shame that they could write it down with peace of mind.
After reading it over, he held all the IOUs in his hand, then looked at the people below and said: "The interest rate is so damn high, I..."
After he finished speaking, he felt ready to tear himself apart.
When the squires below saw it, they all opened their mouths and looked at the angel with shock. No one expected that the majestic angel, the imperial envoy representing the emperor, would actually do such a thing!
