No matter what the famine is like in various places, no matter how miserable the people are, the football league here is getting more and more prosperous.
Even with repeated orders from the court, gambling still cannot be banned. If there is a key match, the rich and distinguished people often spend a lot of money, and even seven bloody conflicts broke out because of suspicions of match-fixing.
On this day, Andingbo Zhang Rong was watching the spring league, and he bet a thousand taels of silver on Guangxing team to win.
"Uncle, it's not good!" A domestic slave lowered his body and ran over.
Because the stadium was too noisy and couldn't hear clearly, Zhang Rong put down the telescope in his hand and asked loudly: "What did you say?"
The domestic slave shouted in his ear: "Our farmland will be forcibly taken away by the Railway Department of the Ministry of Industry!"
"What?" Zhang Rong still couldn't hear clearly.
The slave was so anxious that he shouted at the top of his lungs: "Our farmland is going to be taken away by the railway company!"
Zhang Rong finally heard clearly this time and became furious: "Damn it, you are so bold that you dare to attack Tai Sui!"
In the early years of Zhengde, the two younger brothers of Empress Dowager Zhang were the most majestic, but now they have long shrunk their necks. Since Zhang Yong became the eunuch holding the palm seal and holding the pen, Zhang Rong began to tremble again, and even the princes and nobles did not dare to offend him.
Zhang Rong is over 60 years old this year, but he is still a treasure trove. He just took a 13-year-old concubine last year. He is also greedy for land, occupying large tracts of fertile land in the eastern suburbs of the capital, and has been impeached by officials countless times.
No.
Driving quickly to the eastern suburbs manor in a carriage, he saw Nie Bao asking people to measure the land. Zhang Rong immediately rushed up and said, "Whoever dares to give you the guts, go back to my uncle!"
Nie Bao laughed and said: "Nie Bao, the head of the Railway Department of the Ministry of Industry, was ordered by the emperor to acquire land to build a railway. His majesty gave him courage!"
"fart!"
Zhang Rong said angrily: "Your Majesty only asked you to seize land, not my uncle's land. There is countless land in the suburbs of Beijing. You can't seize anyone, but you come here to do it. A small director of the Ministry of Industry, I think
You are tired of living!"
Nie Bao's expression remained unchanged and he said to a seventh-rank official next to him: "Xiufu, you handle it."
Qi Xian, also known as Xiu Fu, admired Wang Yangming when he was young, but did not have the opportunity to become his disciple. Two years ago, Qi Xian was named in the gold medal and immediately joined the school of physics. He became a disciple of Wang Yan, the master of the school, and became a disciple of Wang Yuan.
Qi Xian was originally a county magistrate in Dingxing, but was urgently transferred to Daxing by Wang Yuan? Now he is the newly minted magistrate of Daxing.
"You came just in time!"
Qi Xian sneered and ordered: "Bo Zhang Rong, An Ding, seizes people's fields, robs people's daughters, and instigates domestic slaves to commit murders. Is there someone here? Have you kidnapped me? Put him in jail for interrogation!"
"How dare you! My brother is Governor Zhang!" Zhang Rong jumped to his feet and roared.
Nie Bao said calmly: "How can Du Gong Zhang be loyal to the emperor and the country, and allow his family to do illegal things? Uncle Anding, please don't slander Du Gong Zhang, otherwise this lawsuit will be brought before the emperor."
Zhang Rong retreated behind the slave and said arrogantly: "Let's see who dares to take action!"
Nie Bao said nothing.
Qi Xian straightened his back and said to his subordinates: "Arrest people. Anyone who dares to arrest will be shot without mercy."
Those government officials are all physics disciples!
Among the Physics School, there are both successful scholars and failed scholars. There are also many craftsmen and Yin and Yang families who do not have any fame. Because Wang Yuan has outstanding military exploits, the Physics School also advocates martial arts. Even Wang Yan, the head of the academy, spends a lot of time every day.
Exercise for an hour.
Qi Xian was urgently transferred to Daxing County Magistrate? There was no time to rectify the county government, so he simply hired a group of classmates to serve as government officials temporarily.
Were government officials in the Ming Dynasty a lowly position? They couldn't take part in the imperial examination. But they had to be formally registered? As long as they were not included in the service roll, who cares whether you took part in the imperial examination or not?
The yamen service system has long been corrupted. Zhu Yuanzhang stipulated that yamen servants should be replaced every year, and later it became mandatory to replace them every three years. This was to prevent yamen servants from deceiving the chief officials, colluding with superiors and subordinates, and doing evil. But in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, who was in charge? Let alone changing every three years.
, there are even thirty-year old officials!
Twenty physics disciples who were acting as temporary workers for the county government all drew out their sabers and fire sticks, and even quickly formed a formation.
Zhang Rong roared and ordered his servants: "Beat me, even if you kill me!"
This is just one of Zhang Rong's manors. As early as when Nie Bao was measuring the land, all the servants in the manor had gathered to stop him. The tenant farmers did not get involved, but there were hundreds of servants with sticks. When they heard Zhang Rong's words
Ordered, immediately picked up the stick and rushed upward.
The formation of physics disciples was invented by Wang Yuan.
Wang Yuan had naturally heard of the Yuanyang Formation, but he only knew its name and not its specific content, so he could only figure it out on his own.
For example, the formation in front of me is a variant of the Three Talents Formation that is similar to the Yuanyang Formation. Twenty physics disciples form a small formation of five, and the four small formations are combined into one large formation.
In each small formation, one person in the middle holds up a long stick and sweeps randomly, with the purpose of distracting the enemy. One person at the side and behind holds a long stick to block the enemy's attack. One person on each side wields a waist knife, which is the main attacking force. There are five people in the small formation, with
There are attacks, defenses and harassments, and the four small formations also support each other.
Just like this, twenty people marched forward in formation, and in just a moment of contact, hundreds of evil slaves were killed, and ten people were chopped down on the spot.
"Kill...kill someone?" Zhang Rong was so frightened that he was trembling all over.
This guy is not only Uncle Anding, but also holds the title of Hereditary Commander of the Imperial Guards. However, after seeing blood, his legs became weak and he could not stand still.
All the evil slaves were beaten away, leaving Zhang Rong paralyzed on the ground.
Two physics disciples dragged Zhang Rong over and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the prisoner has been captured!"
Qi Xian said: "Take him back and put him in the county jail!"
Nie Bao cupped his fists and said, "Thank you."
Qi Xian returned the gift and said, "It's just a matter of loyalty to the king and serving the country."
If you want to build a railway from Beijing to Zunhua, you really can't bypass Zhang Rong's Zhuangtian. Who allowed this guy to occupy so much land in the eastern suburbs?
Since he was going to be offended sooner or later, he might as well offend him thoroughly. Nie Bao planned to take all the thousands of acres of land owned by Zhang Rong in the eastern suburbs into government ownership, and compensate those who needed to be demolished for the land that did not block the railway.
.If there is a suffering owner, you will be compensated after verification. After all, these lands were stolen by Zhang Rong, and the original owners probably still have a lot of them alive.
…
"Duke, it's not good!" A young eunuch rushed in hurriedly.
Zhang Yongzheng was lying on a rocking chair, listening to his confidant eunuch reading memorials and helping the emperor handle important affairs of the government. He frowned and scolded: "Why are you so panicked?"
The young eunuch said: "Bo Anding was imprisoned by the magistrate of Daxing County, and thousands of acres of farmland in the eastern suburbs were taken away by the Railway Department of the Ministry of Industry."
Zhang Yong actually didn't get angry. He was silent for a long time and suddenly sighed: "This is blocking Wang Erlang from doing his work."
The young eunuch asked: "Master Governor, how should we deal with it?"
Zhang Yong said: "Inform Wang Shangshu and tell him that my brother is too old to bear the pain of prison, so let him go free. As for the Zhuangtian in the eastern suburbs, if the Ministry of Works wants it, we will give it to the Ministry of Works.
The family is also a person who is loyal to the emperor and the country, and will never care about personal gains and losses."
The little eunuch was stunned for a moment and said quickly: "Yes."
"Go." Zhang Yong waved.
Zhang Yong is indeed old and cannot walk well, so how can he continue to fight? If he cannot completely defeat Wang Yuan before his death, then Wang Yuan will definitely take revenge after his death, and no one in his family will have a good ending.
.
Wang Yuan also had a sense of proportion. He just took Zhang Rong into prison. Although he was frightened and frightened, he did not torture him severely. Because once he was good or bad, he would break up with Zhang Yong.
This incident shocked the capital. Bo Anding was so arrogant and domineering that he was dealt with by a director of the Ministry of Industry and a seventh-grade county magistrate.
Among the people, Nie Bao and Qi Xian became famous.
In the officialdom, all the civil and military officials had a new understanding of Wang Erlang's majesty. After all, Zhang Yong, the eunuch who held the eunuch's seal and held the pen, was a figure who could isolate the inside and outside, but he did not dare to confront Wang Yuan!
