Mingshi

Chapter 1310
"Actually, if you don't rebel, King Jing, even if His Majesty wants to follow you, there is no chance, right?"

Hearing Luo Xin's sarcastic words, King Jing became depressed again.Any rebellion by the royal relatives will have only one end, and that is to be beheaded.

"Then why did you save me?" King Jing asked in confusion: "Kill me, the entire Prince Jing's mansion belongs to the imperial court, so why leave some to me?"

"It was I who concealed the fact of the rebellion for you. I will not report your rebellion to His Majesty. If you do what I say, you may be rewarded by His Majesty and let you spend a rich life."

"But... why?"

"Because I want money and food!" Luo Xin said lightly: "As long as you take the lead and return to the farmland, and admit your mistakes and hand in money and food as a fine, this will be a leading role, and then you can take back the land occupied by other royal relatives. Tuntian, let them pay the fine, it would be much easier in the first place, plus you do their work, I will be in the shortest possible time, and in a cordial and friendly situation with all the royal family and relatives. Tuntian and fines were collected.

As for people like Zhu Yuan, please rest assured, my lord.Your Majesty has given me more than one edict.You King Jing took the lead in admitting your mistakes, handed over the fine, and returned to the farmland. If there is still resistance, then you can only deal with it seriously. "

"How serious is it?"

"I will not kill the emperor's relatives, but I will arrest him, escort him to Beijing, and let His Majesty handle it himself. Whether he is demoted to a commoner or killed outside the Meridian Gate, it has nothing to do with me. I just want to His home was confiscated. Isn’t he greedy and stingy? Let him not have a single coin left.”

King Jing was silent, although his face was ugly, he knew that he was the villain himself.I must take the lead in returning to the farmland, and I have to pay a fine, and I have to do the work of the remaining royal relatives.

It can be said that I will offend all the royal relatives and relatives all over the place.

but……

Can he not do it?

If you don't do it, you will be killed by Luo Xin in the name of rebellion.

In order to save your life, you must do it yourself.And just as Luo Xin said, if he did this, he might even be rewarded by Emperor Jiajing.

Of course, this requires a premise, that is, Luo Xin does not expose his secret preparations for rebellion.Therefore, King Jing had no choice but to stand up, bowed to Luo Xin and said:

"Thank you!"

Luo Xin waved his hand and said, "Get things done, and burn that dragon robe quickly."

"I see!"

"I will live in the magistrate's yamen for a few days!"

"I'll call the royal relatives on the list right now."

"Well, I'm leaving!"

King Jing personally sent Luo Xin to the door, then returned to the room, sat there for a while, and finally sighed, and began to write letters.

Two days later.

Six relatives of the royal family came to Prince Jing's Mansion, and the six relatives of the royal family stayed in Prince Jing's Mansion for a whole day and night.The next day, Zhu Yuan left Prince Jing's mansion with a huff.And the remaining five royal relatives, under the leadership of King Jing, came to visit Luo Xin in the magistrate's yamen.Afterwards, Luo Xin issued a notice that King Jing and other six royal relatives realized their mistake, returned the occupied farmland and paid a fine.

At the same time, Yu Dayou took a thousand cavalrymen and arrested Zhu Yuan with lightning speed, put him in a prison cart, sent people to escort him into the country, and Zhu Yuan's property was returned to the country.

Luo Xin started to get busy. First of all, he sorted out the money and food, and sent it to Hu Zongxian at the front line. With this batch of money and food, Hu Zongxian was able to support him for a while, which made Luo Xin's life a little easier in the future.

After finishing all this work, Luo Xin began to deal with these farmlands. Some of these farmlands were left by the original guards, and some were returned by these royal relatives.

If this was done in the past, there would be so many farmland all of a sudden, those officials and aristocratic families would have found Luo Xin a long time ago to see if they could buy them at a low price.

But now, no one has come, and the aristocratic families and officials who still occupy the fields are all worried, thinking about what they should do?
It stands to reason that there is no need to think about this kind of thing at all, even the fields of the emperor's relatives and relatives have been returned, and a fine has also been paid.You officials and aristocratic families still want to keep farming?

but……

People's greed is endless, and they always look at the limelight silently one by one with a fluke in their hearts.

Luo Xin didn't bother to pay attention to them, he didn't have time to pay attention to them, he had to arrange the farming first, so as not to delay the cultivation.He had already negotiated with Emperor Jiajing that these farmlands would not be sold, but would be leased out to farmers without land as state land, and let them cultivate and pay rent.

Therefore, these days, Luo Xin put up a notice to rent out the farmland.

Too many peasants flocked here. In the past 200 years of the Ming Dynasty, the land was continuously merged, and too many peasants lost their land.Of course, Luo Xin doesn't divide everyone who comes, it has to go through inspection, so as not to let someone make up the number.And we must first focus on the most difficult farmers.

Those with a large population have no handicrafts other than farming, and so on.

This is a very tedious and energy-consuming task, Luo Xin naturally will not do everything personally, the civil servants of each state capital will be arranged, and Luo Xin is only responsible for the final review.

Fortunately, the southern civil officialdom can be said to be the place where Luo Xin has the strongest influence. There are the most members of the Fuxing Society here, and Luo Xin's reputation in the south, especially when officials see the royal family All relatives of the state gave up in front of Luo Xin, and Luo Xin made them feel more mysterious and taller, and everything went smoothly.

While everything was going well, Luo Xin received a bad news.

There was a military chaos in Nanjing.

Luo Xin's mood at this time was very complicated. There was a thought in his mind that someone would give him a pillow when he was dozing off, and another thought that ten thousand grass-mud horses ran past his heart.

It was said that he was drowsy and someone gave him a pillow, because Luo Xin hadn't figured out how to deal with military generals and civil officials occupying the farmland so far, and now there is a military riot in Nanjing.And in whose hands is the military power in Nanjing?

Naturally, it is Xu Da's descendant, in the hands of that Xu Pengju.In the military, Xu Pengju is the one who occupies the largest farmland.Now that there is a military turmoil, it is undoubtedly much easier for Luo Xin to take back the farmland and impose a fine on Xu Pengju.

On the other hand, what troubled Luo Xin was that the south was already in chaos, but now that Nanjing is here again, the south will become a mess.

Now that Luo Xin is managing the south, there is a mutiny in Nanjing, and Luo Xin is directly responsible.All of a sudden, those who impeached Luo Xin in the court had a target again, which annoyed Luo Xin endlessly.
