When Zhang Jianxiu drank these eight words "disrespecting the emperor's order and rectifying the Fa on the spot", the power was naturally different.
He really dared to kill people and ransack homes.
No.
He is a murderer!
Immediately there was a chilling aura coming towards my face!
Although Zhang Jianxiu has been in charge of Jinyiwei for many years, he is still less than forty years old, so he is certainly not an old man. At this moment, his elegant face showed dignity.
It seems that Mr. General Xian has found some passion or something.
This momentum shocked everyone in Dongchang.
This is really domineering and leaky!
Hundreds of Jin Yiti knights were so excited that they all agreed loudly: "I will obey your orders!"
So following the order from Mr. Zong Xian, the Jin Yiwei Qingqi galloped towards the suburban county guard station in front.
Your Excellency has made it very clear.
Just follow Dongchang's method and ask the health stations and county government offices to find a lot of chickens, ducks and geese, and try their best to kill the locust swarms in the Gyeonggi area.
At this time, the morale of both Jinyiwei and Dongchang was high.
As Mr. Zong Xian took the first credit, he shouted majestically: "Let's go!"
So the light cavalry rolled out in full force along the official road and in the direction of the farmland, and the people from Dongchang followed closely behind.
This posture is really a bit like the factory guards' family members.
However, Shen Lie, the official imperial envoy, deliberately lagged behind, not trying to steal the limelight from Mr. Zong Xian, and trotting along on his old horse.
Tian Hong also deliberately fell behind, then secretly chased after him, and then gave Shen Lie a thumbs up.
Lao Tian smiled brightly and said, "I really didn't see it, Brother Shen Xian..."
The methods used against this wise brother.
Tian Hong was full of praise.
I never expected that his brother Shen Xian, who appeared to be loyal, actually had an exquisite heart. Not only was he smart and resourceful, but he was also a master of flattery.
The credit is well divided!
Seeing Tian Hong smiling from ear to ear, Shen Lie couldn't help but smile slightly and said calmly: "What do I want from this incredible contribution?"
It's better to be low-key.
Shen Lie leaned on the old horse and whispered: "If you don't fight, you will fight."
Tian Hong was slightly stunned, then thoughtful.
Soon Lao Tian opened his mouth and chuckled: "Brother Xian... it's time for your mount to be replaced. This is too slow."
Shen Lie nodded and said with a smile: "Well, it's time to change."
An hour later.
Inside the Meridian Gate is the Wenhua Hall.
The atmosphere in the hall was still tense. The cabinet officials were in a hurry, sending the reports from various counties into the side hall and handing them over to the cabinet for the adults of the six departments to read.
There is a meeting going on in the side hall.
Headed by Zhang Juzheng, several important cabinet ministers, six ministers, and ministers were all present, and they all gathered together and whispered.
It has been three days since the locust plague broke out.
Counties in Gyeonggi Province suffered heavy losses.
The important ministers were worried.
In the midst of the noise, Zhang Juzheng coughed slightly, and all the cabinet ministers, ministers, and ministers fell silent one after another.
Then I saw the Grand Master's expression solemn, frowning and saying, "Let's talk about it."
In solemnity.
A mature and serious bachelor stood up and said slowly: "For the current plan, we should send people to check Changpingcang in various places as soon as possible to provide relief to the victims..."
Zhang Juzheng nodded and responded: "Yes."
Changpingcang is a granary placed by the imperial court across the country, and all the national treasury grains are stored in it.
It's time to prepare for disaster relief.
After another period of silence, the Minister of Hubu also stood up and said comfortingly: "Grand Master, don't worry too much. Since this spring, the weather has been good in Hu, Guang, Shandong, and Henan, and there is still a surplus in the Hubu. The top priority is to transport tens of millions of dollars by water."
It cannot be cut off.”
Zhang Juzheng nodded again, and his frown gradually relaxed.
After years of hard work and reform, the Ministry of Household Affairs has indeed accumulated some wealth, and it is not a big problem to spend a sum of money to provide food relief.
The best way to transport grain is by water, which is transported to Beijing from major grain-producing areas such as Huguang, Henan, and Shandong.
but……
Zhang Juzheng's heart bleeds when he thinks that the wealth he has worked so hard to save for Daming will be emptied again.
Keep your spirits up.
Zhang Juzheng said solemnly: "How is the culling of migratory locusts in various places going?"
He has been in power for many years and has rich experience in governing the country. He quickly grasped the key to the whole matter. The top priority is that the locust plague must not be allowed to continue to expand!
As long as the locust plague is strictly controlled in the Gyeonggi area and does not spread to major grain-producing areas such as Henan and Shandong, there will be room for recovery!
As soon as this was asked.
All the great scholars and the six ministers touched their noses one after another and lowered their heads with some guilt, not even daring to face the Grand Master's verbal questioning.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Juzheng became furious and slapped him hard.
The table shook.
Zhang Juzheng shouted angrily in the Wenhua Hall: "Speak!"
The important ministers were so frightened that they did not dare to say a word. The only one who dared to speak at this time was Zhang Siwei, the deputy minister of the cabinet.
Zhang Siwei stood up quickly, relying on his seniority, and whispered a few words of advice: "Grandpa Taiyue, calm down, this matter... needs to be discussed in the long run."
Isn’t this obvious?
Presumably, officials from various parts of Gyeonggi Province are not very concerned about the cabinet order to put out the locust plague, and there are many who even have ulterior motives.
Zhang Juzheng was out of breath and looked at Zhang Siwei angrily. It took him a long time to suppress the anger in his heart.
he knows.
Throughout the Ming Dynasty, there have always been many more people who opposed him than those who supported him...
Those people form cliques for personal gain, recruit friends and associates, and build up mountains one after another in the local area.
What is the Qi, Chu, Zhejiang Party and Donglin Party?
They don't care about the life and death of the people, every one of them is working against the sun, hoping that the locust plague will expand even more, and they will put him, the grand master and chief assistant, on the fire!
even.
Eighty percent of people have already begun to think about reselling high-priced grain to enrich the country...
Intertwined.
Zhang Juzheng slowly sat back on the chair, with unconcealable fatigue between his old brows, which represented the Wenhua Palace, the highest power of the Ming Dynasty.
Dead silence fell once again.
until……
Urgent footsteps sounded outside the hall, and a young official walked in quickly holding a secret box. Under the gaze of the important ministers, he hurried to Zhang Juzheng's side.
The subordinate whispered a few words, carefully placed the box in his hand on the table, and then bowed and retreated.
This operation stunned the ministers, and they all looked at the seal on the secret box.
That was clearly the mark of Jin Yiwei.
Then the grand master stretched out his hand to tear off the seal, opened the box of the message, took out the kraft paper envelope with fire paint, and tore off the fire paint...
Then he took out a secret letter and read it.
There was another burst of whispers in the hall. The message sent in the secret box was clearly an urgent report from Fusi, Jinyiwei North Town.
"What trouble happened again?"
But.
Under the worried gaze of the important ministers.
But all I saw was.
The Taishi's frown quickly relaxed, his eyes widened, and his slightly chapped lips opened slightly involuntarily.
The Grand Master looked as if he had seen a ghost at this moment.
