The Red House starts from Liaodong

Chapter 183

Han Hao's father was the Youtunwei in western Liaoning, and the commander of the guard knew Han Bin, so in the capital, the servants in his family were old military households from eastern Liaodong.

The old servant came back from the outside and told him that he had gone to Mr. Chen's house. His family members told him that Mr. Chen was not at home and had gone away for more than two months.

Chen Deyan was not in the capital, and had been away for more than two months.

Counting the days, that is to say, after meeting outside the capital two months ago, he went out not long after.

It's not easy.

Originally, he wanted to invite Chen Deyan to ask his elder brother Tang Qing'an what he meant, but Han Hao soon became suspicious.

"Did you say where you went?"

The old servant shook his head.

Han Hao fell silent.

Seeing that the young master had nothing to ask himself, the old servant went out to do some work.

Han Hao leaned back on the chair silently, staring at the exquisite set of "Four Treasures of the Study" on the desk.

There are also pen holders, pen holders, ink beds, ink cartridges, arm rests, brush washers, book weights, water containers, water spoons, inkstone drops, inkstone boxes, ink pads, ink boxes, cutters, stamps, and rolls.

Tang Qing'an spent a lot of money and sent people to Jinling to buy it back, and specially gave it to him.

Chen Deyan was Tang Qing'an's traveler in the capital, and before Tang Qing'an wrote this memorial, he would definitely negotiate with Chen Deyan to confirm the situation in the capital.

And Chen Deyan actually left the capital two months ago, so Tang Qing'an's memorial has been prepared for a long time.

Han Hao subconsciously took out a piece of rice paper from the box.

After thinking about it, I put it back.

Where will Chen Deyan go?

Shaanxi.

Chengcheng is a very poor county, and most of its territory is valleys.

Chen Deyan stomped the ground under his feet with a sigh.

With such a barren land, the yield per mu is already low, and with such a high tax, it is no wonder that people have run away.

The few men who followed behind Chen Deyan looked in disbelief at the large piece of uncultivated land.

What is even more astonishing is that there are refugees everywhere.

"This……"

Everyone was speechless.

"Ten years ago, there were farmers from Chaoyi, Heyang, Puban and other neighboring counties opening up wasteland and farming.

After the turmoil in Liaodong, the common people were squeezed more and more by the imperial court due to the tax increase year after year, and natural disasters happened year after year, and the household registration was even worse. "

A heroic young man explained to everyone with a smile.

Chen Deyan looked at this down-and-out kid from a family, not only did he not give up on himself, but he was a chivalrous man by nature, he didn't care about small things, and he was good at spear and sword.

He saw the shadow of his second brother in this man.

But the second brother doesn't have the talent of this person.

"There are many places in Shaanxi, and the folk fresh food business.

Since there are many things in the frontier, conscription and payment, there are ten rooms and nine empty houses.What's more, in successive years of fierce famine, disaster after disaster, it is extremely cruel and fierce even now.

I visited Yanqing and Pingliang from Fenghan Xing'an to Xi'an, but saw that there was no rain in May, so that in autumn, the three volts of drought, the seedlings withered, the red wild grass and the smoke, the people were displaced, and the roads continued.

Every time they passed by, hundreds of victims flocked to ask for relief.

It is close to Yi, Luo and other places in Yan'an, and Hancheng in Xi'an. It is reported that there are connections back to Luo, flags and gold, and hundreds of moves.In the daytime, the weak and the strong eat.

Gai was hungry and bored, so he took risks.

Instead of starving and waiting to die, it is better to rob and live. "

Zhang Yuncheng from the Ministry of Accounting, who was in Shaanxi last year, returned to Beijing this year. After the assignment, he wrote a document survey and submitted it to the cabinet as usual, and put it on the shelf.

Because this is a cliché, officials often discuss Shaanxi matters to the imperial court, hoping that the imperial court will pay attention to it.

How does the imperial court attach importance to it? Does Liaodong want it?

There is no way around this.

Unless things are flat in Liaodong.

And if you want things to be peaceful in Liaodong, then you can't touch the big brother lightly.

Chen Deyan didn't take it seriously at first.

However, he still copied a copy of this person's cultural survey and capital newspaper, as well as the collected affairs of various officials, and sent it to Jinzhou in a package.

Soon, the eldest brother sent this person's cultural survey back to him alone, and asked him to go to Shaanxi to take a look.

Following the order of his eldest brother, Chen Deyan came to Shaanxi.

What he saw and heard frightened him.

Where is this still human.

Thousands of miles away, wild dogs eat people, Yizi eats each other...

"Governor of Shaanxi, don't prefects from all over the country care?"

Chen Deyan asked in bewilderment.

When Liu Xianglian heard Chen Deyan's question, the corner of her mouth twitched, showing contempt for the government in her words.

"Six or seven years ago, the Shaanxi soldiers who aided Liaodong fled from Liaodong and did not dare to return to the army, so they gathered and looted the countryside, and gradually spread.

However, there has been a severe drought in this place for five years, there is no harvest, and the government tax is heavy, and countless hungry people have been born, most of whom are thieves.

The soldiers and civilians have all turned into thieves, so how can Shaanxi officials manage them?There is only one way to solve this problem. "

Liu Xianglian smiled confidently.

Chen Deyan nodded.

He knew what Liu Xianglian meant, that is, the imperial court exempted Shaanxi from taxes and organized supplies to be transferred to Shaanxi for drought relief.

He has been in the capital for a long time and knows that the court cannot do this.

and so.

Chen Deyan understood why the eldest brother said that a major trend was brewing in the country.

In such a situation, as long as someone forgets about life and death, and raises his arms, there will be a large number of people responding, connecting cities and corrupting Shaanxi.

They are still thieves.

"Six or seven years ago, the refugees plundered the villages, and more often they forced begging from the villages and even the big households. They did not dare to kill people indiscriminately, and they were afraid of the government.

Three years ago, a group of thieves rushed to the South Pass of Huozhou to take revenge and kill the squire.

By last year, there were several groups of refugees gathering thousands of people, it should be said that they were bandits, and they began to harass the place. "

Hearing Liu Xianglian talking freely, Chen Deyan observed him silently.

He knew so well about the Shaanxi rogues, so would he be involved with that group of people?

This person is really courageous.

"Third Master, the rogues in Shaanxi are all waiting and watching, waiting for the first person to show up."

Liu Xianglian laughed.

"Waiting and waiting, I'm afraid that the wait will be in vain."

Chen Deyan also laughed.

"Yeah, who would have thought that General Tang of Jinzhou, thousands of miles away, would actually see the situation here, it's amazing."

Liu Xianglian's answer was irrelevant, and brought the topic to Tang Qing'an.

The tone in these words pointed to the general's intentions. Several people behind Chen Deyan raised their heads to look at Liu Xianglian, and quietly surrounded him.

Liu Xianglian's face remained unchanged, but she looked proud.

He has practiced martial arts since he was a child, no matter whether he is in the capital or traveling around Shaanxi, he has never had an opponent.

The military man from Liaodong in front of me is capable and capable, but when it comes to martial arts, Liu Xianglian doesn't care about it.

Chen Deyan smiled and shook his head.

"Brother Liu misunderstood the general. The general loves the people the most, so he pays attention to this matter."

Following Chen Deyan's words, several people backed away quietly.

Hearing Chen Deyan's words, Liu Xianglian didn't take it seriously.

Although he didn't know Jinzhou General Tang's idea and why he inquired about the situation in Shaanxi, he knew that Jinzhou General must have deep meaning.

His good friend Feng Ziying went to Jinzhou, so it aroused some thoughts in him, so he took the initiative to approach Chen Deyan.

The words revealed some knowledge about Shaanxi, and this person really invited him to come to Shaanxi to have a look.

Are you confident, or are you defenseless?

Liu Xianglian couldn't make up her mind.

No matter how.

General Jinzhou's long line of sight really made Liu Xianglian extremely admired.

This person's scheming is so wide that he will definitely not be an ordinary general of a town.

Two months later, when Liu Xianglian returned to the capital, and heard people talk about the Jinzhou General Soldier going to Shu, she suddenly understood.

This person sent Chen Deyan to Shaanxi, so it was his idea.

Regarding the dispute between saints, although Liu Xianglian's family background has declined, she still has contacts with noble children in the capital.

So he knew some news in the palace.

Comparing the actions of the Jinzhou General Soldier, then this person thinks that even if the sage takes power, the court will not have the spare power to manage him.

"What a great man."

"What's amazing?"

A group of noble children were chatting and drinking, and Jia Baoyu, who was sitting next to Liu Xianglian, was shocked when he heard what he said suddenly.

"It's nothing, I just think Jinzhou General Tang is very powerful."

"Isn't this nonsense, besides him, who else has defeated the barbarians?"

Baoyu heard Liu Xianglian mention Tang Qing'an, he didn't want to talk about this person.

But on the table, the rest of the honorable children laughed presumptuously.

……

"Liaodong is nothing to worry about."

King Zhongshun said.

Although he was very dissatisfied with Tang Qing'an, especially the actions against the Shanxi merchants, in King Zhongshun's view, he was extremely "nosy".

Even if Jinzhou participates in the ginseng trade, there is no need to mess up the market price so much.

Although there was a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart, he still comforted the emperor in this way.

King Zhongshun, Grand Scholar Liu Yiru, and Marquis Zhongjing Shiding returned from his inspection tour in Henan and were promoted to Wu Wenhua, the censor of Youqian Capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

In Langfang, discuss various matters with the emperor.

Liaodong is very important, but it is not important now.

When the noble concubine was summoned by the old concubine in the name of serving her, the secret fight between the overlord and the emperor quietly changed.

Liu Yiru seems to have a turning point, and King Zhongshun seems to have reached a point of tension.

Calculating the power in the hands of both parties, he looked decadent.

Although the position of Jingying Jiedushi has not yet been implemented, Feng Tang, the general of Shenwu, began to manage the Jingying.

King Zhongshun turned to win over Xie Jing, a guerrilla from the Beijing camp, and Qiu Liang, a soldier from the five cities.

Both of these two have a good relationship with the Jia family.

However, Jia's government has not yet expressed its position on who to support.

Now that his own side is in a weak position, Jia's house does not express its position. From King Zhongshun's point of view, it is supporting the Supreme Emperor.

But it is not yet possible to offend the Jia family, after all, it is better not to express one's position than to express one's position.

So now is not the time to question the Golden State General Soldier.

The emperor was irritated by the arrogance of the Jinzhou commander-in-chief, and was about to reprimand him, when he heard his uncle's words, he fell silent.

"Is Tang Zongbing someone with ulterior motives?"

After a long time, the emperor suddenly asked Shi Ding.

When Shi Ding heard the emperor's question, he knew it in his heart and saw through his situation.

Deep down in his heart, the emperor still believed that he had connections with the Jia family.

In other words, his efforts over the years to clear the relationship between the Shifu and the Jiafu were far from successful.

Originally, the elder brother was recommended to Liaodong to serve as the Liaodong economic strategy, in order to gain military power, which the emperor was happy with.

Although the elder brother Shi Nai was wise and safe, he did not speak directly for Tang Qing'an, the general soldier of Jinzhou.

But the imperial court is not a fool. When the Jinzhou commander-in-chief was still a hundred households in Donghaiying, it was Shi Nai who supported him to go to sea.

Shi Ding really didn't know what kind of person Tang Qing'an was.

According to Tang Qing'an's report, last year, there were 50 Liao people in Jinzhou, Zhenjiang, and the east coast of Changbai Mountain.

Shi Ding, Zhongshun Wang and others discussed it and thought it must be more than 50.

At the beginning of this year, Golden State reported 70, and then there was no report.

It has passed a million in the capital.

50 and 100 million, the two numbers seem to have doubled, but the meaning is very different.

50, can be said to be a huge Jiedu mansion.

Hanging alone overseas, facing a strong enemy, and stabilizing the situation in Liaodong, you need the support of the imperial court.

Even though Tang Qing'an is only a general soldier now, everyone thinks that he is a Jiedu envoy, sooner or later.

But 100 million is different.
