Daming heir

When the dam problem was detected on the river course in Mengjin County.

The Yamen of the prefect of Henan Province in Luoyang City is already on guard throughout the city, and the guards stationed inside and outside Luoyang City have also received orders that everyone must stay in the camp and wait for possible military orders.

Duan Jialin, the magistrate of Henan Province, rushed to the city wall only a quarter of an hour behind Tian Mai.

As soon as Duan Jialin arrived at the city wall, he heard the order from the emperor grandson to use the Henan guard Ma Jinshan.

He was newly promoted from Yingtian City following the big shake-up of Henan Dao officialdom this year.

He is not a man of learning, but he can be regarded as a competent official.

Duan Jialin reached the city wall, shook his official robe, and then bowed and clasped his fists: "Minister Duan Jialin, prefect of Henan Province, see His Royal Highness the Emperor Grandson."

Zhu Yunxi looked at Duan Jialin who was drenched in the rain without asking anyone to hold an umbrella, and smiled faintly: "Prefect Duan has been serving in Henan Prefecture for several months now, and I think he is getting better."

Duan Jialin nodded, but there was a wry smile on his face: "For the imperial court, ministers can only do their best, and dare not make any mistakes."

I have been working as the magistrate of Henan Prefecture for almost a year, and now on this city wall, there is not a single official from the magistrate's yamen holding an umbrella, so how can I talk about getting better.

Zhu Yunxi also knew about it, but said indifferently: "The court situation will always improve. Duan Zhifu is not in the government office today to handle official duties, how come here?"

Duan Jialin hesitated for a while before saying: "I want... now that the matter on the river has been found out, it has nothing to do with the governor's yamen of the river and the officials of the Henan government's yamen, whether they can release those temporarily detained. After all...there is still a river in the mansion, everything is busy, and people are inseparable."

Holding an umbrella, Wang Xinling silently glanced sideways at the prefect of Henan Prefecture.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the magistrate who has just taken office has not had a smooth life in Henan.But he turned out to be a nice guy, and now he was going to intercede for those who were temporarily detained.

The young governor thought about it for a while. If he was in this position, he would probably procrastinate for a while, and then perform enough hard work. After all, he complained and let those people out.

In this way, it can also make those people feel grateful, and at worst, it can be less dragging in the days to come.

He's directly addressing it now.

Those people themselves have already found out that there is no problem, and Taisun has no reason to continue to detain those people.

Duan Jialin's intercession was in vain in the end.

Zhu Yunxi sighed softly, and waved his hands: "Since the magistrate pleaded for mercy, and now that nothing happened, let them go."

Duan Jialin's face was full of joy: "My humble minister, thank you Your Highness."

Zhu Yunxi snorted, and then said quietly: "It's just that although they have no hands and feet, and they are not involved in the river accident. But after all, they still can't escape the crime of oversight. Let them go now. Who should bear the guilt of oversight?"

After he finished speaking, he stared at the good old Duan Jialin with ambiguous eyes.

The meaning is obvious.

Since those temporarily detained are going to be released, you, Duan Jialin, will have to bear the charge of negligence.

Duan Jialin froze for a moment.

I want the Henan government to be harmonious and harmonious with each other.But this does not mean that he is a fool and will do things that take responsibility for others.

Zhu Yunxi smiled lightly and said, "Henan government temporarily detains officials, each of whom will be demoted to one level, and will remain in their original positions, pending the follow-up review by the imperial court. The prefect of Henan government will be punished for one year's salary for negligence."

Duan Jialin in front of him was a little surprised.

The grandson treats himself with care.

Wang Xinling was a little bit emotional, it turns out that being a good person still has some advantages.

At least, although Duan Jialin was guilty of negligence, he was only fined for one year.On the contrary, those people were downgraded by one level. Although they can still stay in their original positions, it is difficult to get promoted.

Duan Jialin felt a lot of emotion for a while.

This is the rumored, murderous grandson of Daming Iron Blood Emperor that everyone fears?This is His Royal Highness Taisun who can rebel in the local area and lead the army before the battle?
I feel that the emperor's grandson is extraordinarily lenient and kind.

Duan Jialin was thinking about people's descriptions of the emperor's grandson, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, I heard that I was going to use the Henan Guards to go to Anle Village?"

Zhu Yunxi looked at Duan Jialin with scrutiny in his eyes.

Duan Jialin hurriedly said: "Your Highness, the soldiers and horses in the guards must not move lightly."

As soon as he finished these words, Zhu Yunxi immediately narrowed his eyes.

If Duan Jialin said something that should not be said again, and expressed some kind of remarks that were not suitable for the current court, then the punishment of one year's salary would have to be changed.

This fool!

Wang Xinling, who was at the side, couldn't help but cursed inwardly.

What a fool.

Duan Jialin seemed to have reacted, with a look of embarrassment on his face: "This minister is not admonishing His Highness not to use the guards, but how to use them in the face of the current situation. The Great Ming Guards have millions of soldiers, which is the country's most important weapon. However, how to use it must be cautious and cautious. If the teacher is famous, if he moves, he will smash all enemies with a thunderous blow."

He, a magistrate of Henan Province, can say such words.

The hesitation in Zhu Yunxi's heart disappeared immediately, a smile appeared on his face, and he said softly: "According to what Duan Zhifu said, how should we use troops to sweep Xiaoxiao this time?"

"The first thing to do is to keep quiet, and don't let Xiao Xiaoluan get the news of the government's dispatch of troops in advance."

Duan Jialin spoke forcefully, as if he had completely changed his appearance from the good old man in the officialdom, quite different from him.

He continued: "Secondly, it should be surrounded on all sides. Anle Village produces bluestone, and now there is a cement factory under the supervision of the Ministry of Industry. The two work together to provide materials for the river. I also know a little about the terrain over there. Anle Village is surrounded by mountains on three sides. If they don't encircle them, they will be blocked and have no way to escape. As long as these people enter the mountain, it will be difficult to track them down, and there will be endless troubles."

Zhu Yunxi squinted his eyes: "In this way, the manpower of a thousand households seems to be stretched."

Duan Jialin nodded: "According to my humble opinion, at least three thousand households are needed. Not only should Anle Village have rebellious intentions, but also other villages here have dissent against the imperial court."

Having said that, Duan Jialin stopped.

Under Zhu Yunxiong's gaze, he slowly opened his mouth to explain again.

"Once you use troops, you must be famous. Now that the government is in turmoil, all kinds of rumors and gossips in the local area are overwhelming. Now it is reasonable to write an official document, which can be made public by the government and widely advertised.

The prestige of the court cannot be lost, nor can the dignity of the government be lost.Once the encirclement is completed with troops and it is confirmed that there is a conspiracy in Anle Village, the government will immediately announce it to reassure the local people and prevent rumors from spreading. "

Zhu Yunxi fell silent at this time.

On the contrary, I misread Duan Jialin in front of me.

Being able to serve as the prefect of Henan Prefecture under the scrutiny of the imperial court is an indispensable talent in itself.

Strictly speaking, the imperial court used it in the wrong place.

Perhaps, he should be allowed to go to the important town of Nine Borders to be a magistrate, or to be the commander-in-chief.

Wang Xinling was a little thankful that he hadn't revealed anything earlier.

At this moment, Zhu Yunxi waved his hand and spoke loudly.

"The official document is written by Duan Jialin, and it is sealed by the grandson alone."

"There is no need to worry about how many soldiers and horses, let Henan Wei pull out all of them."

"After surrounding the mountain, I have to go and see for myself how these people made the rock-solid bluestone as crisp as tofu."

That night.

Duan Jialin, the magistrate of Henan Province, seemed to have been blessed by misfortune, and fell into the eyes of the emperor's grandson.

Also under the guarantee of Duan Jialin, the various departments of the Henan government and the officials on the river were also released from prison.

The soldiers and horses of Henan Wei left the camp at night.

People take off their shoes and horseshoes are wrapped in cloth.

More than ten miles away from the city, the officers and soldiers had just put on their boots under the order of Niu Dafu, a thousand-household officer of the Jing army appointed by the emperor's grandson to oversee the army.

"Commander, after this time, I will no longer interfere in military affairs. I will place it outside Anle Village, and please ask the commander to send a brother from the Baihusuo to the next officer."

Returning to Beijing to report victory as a hundred-household officer of the Dongzheng Army, Niu Dafu, a newly-promoted thousand-household officer of the Beijing Army, rode on a war horse and spoke to the Henan Wei commander.

The commander of the Henan Guard has been in the army for more than [-] years. He has followed countless meritorious service in the founding of the court and fought in the north and south. Now he leads a guard and horse to sit in Henan Mansion.

His personality is calm.

Knowing that Niu Dafu is representing the grandson of the emperor, and knowing that the other party has not exceeded his authority, he nodded: "The safety of the grandson is of great importance. At that time, I will assign three hundred households to Niu Qianhu to guard around His Highness."

Niu Dafu didn't say much, just nodded.

There are more soldiers on hand, and he has more confidence in protecting His Highness the Grandson himself. No one knows whether there will be an army of thousands of rebels popping up from the mountain at that time.

Fifty miles away from the city, it was already midnight.

The army divided into three thousand households and left in different directions. Fortunately, a little later, they formed an encirclement of the valley in Anle Village.

……

Goo... Goo...

Outside the courtyard behind the ancestral hall of Anle Village, several insects could be heard.

In the room where the lights had already been turned off, there were a few figures swaying under the moonlight.

Sun Cheng's eyes were bright, and he didn't look like he had just been woken up.

When we reached the gate of the backyard, a person flashed in from the half-hidden gate.

"Zhen Fu, there are indeed people watching outside at night."

Sun Cheng's eyes sank: "Have you dealt with it?"

"It's been dealt with, and I won't wake up until sunrise tomorrow."

If it wasn't for continuing to conceal the identities of his group, and according to Sun Cheng's temperament, those who were watching outside would have been killed long ago.

He nodded.

The person who came in from the outside said in a low voice: "Turn around the mountain road at the back, there is a depression on the back side of the mountain, and it is difficult to find it on weekdays. There is something going on there at this time, does Zhenfu want to go and have a look?"

"What's the situation over there now?" Sun Cheng asked in a low voice.

"It's all bluestone. Many bluestones that were mined on the quarry during the day were pulled over."

With just one sentence, Sun Cheng immediately raised his hand: "Stop gossiping, let's go over first and then talk. Leave a few people here to watch, in case of accidents."

After leaving the gate of the courtyard, Sun Cheng had already received the Xiuchun Knife handed over by his subordinates, and his eyes were even more murderous.

The back mountainside of Anle Village is further inward, that is the depth of the mountain.

The bluestone quarried from the quarry is not pulled out of the mountain, but sent into the mountain. It is a lie to say that there are no ghosts.

It's just that Sun Cheng doesn't understand why Anle Village is so eager to do it at this time.

"Hurry up. The official document from the government to urge the stone has arrived for several days. If you don't send it over, it will make the government displeased and get the stone from the side. Our Anle Village will really not be able to survive."

On the mountainside at the back of Anle Village, after dealing with Sun Cheng and his party in the evening, Li Zhicheng watched the candles go out in the house on the other side of the yard, and then Li Zhicheng left the followers behind and came here from the village by himself.

In front of his eyes, beside a large valley and low-lying area, is a flat pool surrounded by mountains.

The stream flows out from the deep mountains in the distance.

On the flat ground, piles of bluestones were erected, and underneath were piles of firewood, burning blazingly.

When the firewood was burned, someone took water from a nearby stream and poured it directly on the piles of bluestones.

The stream water fell on the burned hot bluestone, and layers of smoke rose immediately, and there were continuous crackling sounds in the white smoke.

That is the sound that can only be made after the high temperature and cold water are poured and the material of the bluestone is changed.

That's all, but it's not over yet.

Just watered, the bluestone is not easy to transport, if there is a slight bump in the road, it will shatter on the spot, making it unusable.

In the valley, under the leadership of Li Zhicheng, the people of Anle Village carefully carried the bluestones that had been watered to a pool covered by rocks at the side of the mountain.

The pool is not mountain spring water either.

It is the oil and water accumulated through Anle Village for who knows how many years.

The bluestone is soaked in oil, it only needs to wait until dawn, and it will become softer, but it will not be easily broken during transportation.

Only when heavy objects are squeezed, or there is an external impact, will it be broken.

He led the people along the ridge to a hidden location on the back halfway up the mountain.

Sun Cheng was condescending, watching what happened in the valley below, his eyes widened, this situation can be described as shocking.

These people really messed with the bluestone used in the river!

This is a great crime of treason!
An official of Beizhen Fusi whispered beside Sun Cheng: "Zhen Fu, this is probably a method handed down from Anle Village a long time ago. It's just that the subordinates thought that at the beginning, they just wanted to let the places outside that used these bluestones replace the bluestones from time to time and earn more silver. But now, these people are using them to destroy the river."

Why doesn't Sun Cheng understand the truth here?

"The imperial court is opening a new policy! It has benefited countless people! Although life is still hard, it will eventually get better. How much is the farmland in Henan Province? All the fields of the gentry's family are now included in the yellow book for taxation.

Did they really do this just to make bluestones needed all the time on the river?
The official thinks, not necessarily! "

After finishing the three words, Sun Cheng's eyes were completely cold.
