Chapter 199: Your Majesty has important ministers who want to usurp your power! Come on!(1/2)
Chapter 199 Your Majesty, an important minister wants to usurp your kingdom! (Here he comes!)
"Something really happened!"
An Hanzhang looked very anxious, and Gao Zhi also became nervous: "What's going on?"
An Hanzhang told the story about the elders, but Gao Zhi became relaxed and said with a smile: "What kind of loan sharking a country gentry did? At most, he colluded with his younger brother who was in the county government, and he didn't kill anyone.
What does this mean?
Moreover, what does this matter have to do with us? If Zhang Jun wants to investigate, just let him investigate. Can we still find Hua Lai?"
At this point, his expression suddenly changed and he said: "...An Zhizhou, are you also part of this loan shark, haha."
There seemed to be more sweat on An Hanzhang's forehead: "Gaozhi, I hope you can still be so happy in the future..."
Gao Zhi's expression changed. Ever since he came to Haizhou, although everyone was considered to be in the same camp, An Hanzhang had always been very polite to him, calling him "Xian Guan" or "Feng Xian".
An Hanzhang did not call him by his first name, which shows that he believed that the matter was extremely serious, far beyond calling him by his first name.
Gao Zhi said in a deep voice: "An Zhizhou, what is going on?"
An Hanzhang said anxiously: "Resisting the central bank, controlling loan sharking, and pushing up food prices are all part of the plan!"
Gao Zhi immediately understood after hearing this: "So, the magistrate and county captain of Ganyu County are also our people?"
An Hanzhang nodded and said: "So, if Zhang Xuan is asked to go to Ganyu County to investigate, and then follow the clues and directly touch me, everything will be over by then!"
Gao Zhi was shocked and said: "How did things get to this point? You guys are too rough in doing things. How could you let a young man from the village come to the state to complain, and arrest him and send him back to his hometown?"
, and you still hang out in front of Zhang Jun? I even doubt whether you are looking for trouble..."
An Hanzhang smiled bitterly: "It sounds unlikely, but it just happened. Gao Xian, the key now is, what should we do?"
Gao Zhi lowered his eyes and said: "An Zhizhou, I don't know what to do, and I don't know what to do. This matter has little to do with me."
When An Hanzhang heard this, he immediately cursed in his heart. What the hell is this? He was not polite at all when collecting money. Now that the critical moment has come, why are you playing the role of an outsider again? Haha, you want to stay out of it now, can you escape?
Thinking of this, An Hanzhang sneered: "That's right, this matter indeed has nothing to do with Gao Xian, so I left the official. I hope that when the time comes for interrogation, Gao Xian can be so confident!"
After saying that, An Hanzhang walked straight out. Gao Zhi finally said: "An Zhizhou, wait a minute."
An Hanzhang stopped.
Gao Zhidao: "An Zhizhou, what are you going to do?"
An Hanzhang turned around with a murderous look in his eyes: "Now that the matter has come to this, what else can be done? If Zhang Jun stays in Zhouya honestly and I spare his life, if he dares to go to Ganyu County to investigate the matter
, then he can only have an accident."
Gao Zhi was surprised and said: "Zhang Jin is going to die, Zhang Heng will definitely not give up..."
"Shut up!" An Hanzhang finally got angry, "Gao Xian, I respect you as the special envoy of Beijing and I have always been polite to you, but now is not the time to play around!
You may not understand what this incident means. The princes above are collaborating with various roads and prefectures and counties. The major families are cooperating with each other. Various supervisors, Yushitai, local wealthy families, and even the Nei Zangtang are all involved.
Come into this matter.
We all work together for one goal, to push up food prices, accelerate mergers, and create refugees. Do you know what this is?
This is rebellion! Supreme, this is rebellion!"
Gao Zhi's face turned pale and his limbs were trembling: "Rebellion...rebellion? We are rebelling!"
An Hanzhang smiled when he saw Gao Zhi's face turning pale.
"Yes, we are in rebellion. Once someone exposes these secrets, we are in rebellion!
Although we are not rebelling against the Zhao family, but are going against Jia Changchao, the principle is the same.
Once things are revealed, a lot of people will die, a lot of people, do you understand now?"
Gao Zhi's eyes lost their light. He never imagined that just because he was on a business trip, he would be involved in such a big deal.
An Hanzhang comforted him: "You don't have to worry too much. If the sky falls, there will still be someone tall to hold it up."
Gao Zhi remained silent, and then said: "Zhang He can't kill him. Zhang Heng will not think that Zhang He got into trouble by accident. He will definitely investigate to the end."
An Hanzhang sneered: "That will happen in the future. When the plan succeeds and Jia Changchao steps down, can Zhang Heng still stay in the court?"
Will he still be able to investigate at that time? Will he still dare to investigate? It’s better not to be in panic all day long. It’s time to get down to business!”
Having said that, An Hanzhang did not act rashly.
An Hanzhang kept people staring at Zhang Xuan, but Zhang Xun seemed to have no problem. He took the young man with him and said he was interrogating him, but he stayed in the state government office and did not go out.
It looks like I have no plans to go to Ganyu County.
An Hanzhang felt a little anxious, but on the other hand, he breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, he didn't want to offend Zhang Heng to death. During these times, he and Gao Zhi talked about Zhang Heng's affairs. Gao Zhi also knew everything and told An about everything he knew about Zhang Heng.
Han Zhang and An Hanzhang were very afraid. If possible, it would be better not to offend him.
As time goes by, the price of food in Haizhou is getting higher and higher day by day. In many food stores in Haizhou, the prices have gone up, but there is no food for sale. Day after day, the price of food has doubled several times.
!
Of course, the people complained, but their complaints were confined to the streets and could not reach the upper reaches at all.
——
"Master, let's go."
Zong’s wife talked to Zong Baosheng, who was reluctant to leave the dilapidated courtyard.
Zong Baosheng withdrew his gaze, nodded and said, "Let's go, let's go."
The clan's wife cried and said: "If the elder comes back and sees that his home is gone, I don't know how sad he will be."
Zong Baosheng said angrily: "That unfilial son didn't listen to me and just ran away. Who knows whether he will live or die?"
Although he scolded his son angrily, Zong Baosheng's eyes were still a little moist. He didn't know that his son was aggrieved by what happened to him. He probably went to the county government to file a complaint, and went to a place where people can eat people.
A chance to live!
A few days ago, Zhang Xianwei, Mr. Zhang's younger brother, brought his government servants to Dong'ao Village to show off his power. Unable to bear the pressure, he sold all the land and houses. Today is the day when they start to leave their hometown.
.
There were many people in the village who were treated the same way. They were forced to sell their fields and homes and prepare to go out to other provinces.
Zong Baosheng was planning to take his wife and children south to make a living in Fujian, while many others were planning to go to Bianjing.
The whole family was crying, carrying their belongings, helping the old and the young, and went out to escape the famine.
But before Zong Baosheng and his family left the village, they were stopped by Zhang Dazhuang again.
Zong Baosheng used crutches to support himself, glared at Zhang Dazhuang and said: "Zhang Dazhuang, our whole family has been ruined by you, why are you still unwilling to let us go?"
Zhang Dazhuang chuckled, his lewd eyes passed over Zong's wife's breasts, and then he looked at Zong Baosheng's broken leg with contempt and said: "Don't talk nonsense, your family is ruined, but no one in your family is dead.
Ah, as for selling your land and house, you did it voluntarily, so who can you blame?"
Zong Baosheng took a breath and begged: "Zhang Dazhuang, we have no grievances. Now that I, Zong Baosheng, have admitted defeat, we will go to a foreign land to make a living. Please let us live..."
Zhang Dazhuang exclaimed: "Zong Baosheng, please don't say that. It is said that Zhang Dazhuang's reputation will be bad for me. I didn't go to your house very much. We are all fellow villagers. It's normal to have some friction and conflicts."
But don’t talk nonsense about people who have no way out, I, Zhang Dazhuang, can’t do that kind of thing.”
Zong Baosheng lowered his head and said, "Okay, then please let us go. We'll leave now."
Zhang Dazhuang chuckled: "Where are you going?"
Zong Baosheng hesitated and said: "We are going south to Fujian. There are people recruiting workers there. In the past, our family could also eat."
Zhang Dazhuang waved his hand and said: "Don't go to Fujian, go to Bianjing."
Zong Baosheng was surprised and said: "Why is this?"
Zhang Dazhuang said impatiently: "Go if I ask you to. Don't toast me or drink the fine wine."
Zong Baosheng swallowed his anger and said: "We don't want to go to Bianjing. There are recruitments in Fujian. We can survive there, but if we go to Bianjing, we will really become refugees."
Zhang Dazhuang chuckled and said, "It's not up to you. You can either go east to Bianjing or want to go to the south... Then I will break your other leg and send you to Bianjing. It's your choice."
Zong Bao was so angry that he was trembling all over, but what could he do? Everyone around Zhang Dazhuang had malicious smiles on his face. I was afraid that if he couldn't say the next thing he said, he would probably pounce on him and beat him.
Zong's wife worriedly asked: "The head of the family?"
Zong Baosheng took a deep breath and said, "Okay, let's go to Bianjing!"
Zhang Dazhuang smiled proudly and waved his hand: "Go ahead, there are people watching on the road. If you dare to go south, I will break your legs if I get caught..."
Then he looked at Zong's wife with lustful eyes and said nothing, but the meaning was very obvious.
Zong’s wife turned pale with fright.
Zong Baosheng was filled with desolation and limped eastward with his wife and children.
Along the way, there were also a large number of farmers supporting the old and young, who were forced to go eastward and formed a flow of people.
Zong Baosheng was trembling with fear along the way, fearing that Zhang Dazhuang and others would catch up and harm his family, but after walking for several days, he did not see Zhang Dazhuang and the others.
Zong Baosheng discussed with his wife whether to turn south directly, but they were both afraid of being caught, so they hesitated.
