Chapter 682 How long can it last?

Chen Xingye's house was violently opened, and the people who came seemed to not care about the shouting of the people in the Chen Mansion, nor did they care about Chen Xingye's official position, which was equivalent to a second-rank official in the Ming Dynasty. It seemed that the people who caught Chen's house were like catching chickens.

Chen Xingye, who was at home, couldn't figure out why the Jinyiwei came to him, regardless of whether it was in the Ming Dynasty or Annan. The Jinyiwei's great reputation has the effect of stopping children from crying.

Lin Huanyu raised his legs into the Chen Mansion with a sinister smile and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen Xingye? Your business has been revealed. Let's go with this thousand households."

Chen Xingye's face was gloomy and said coldly: "What happened to me? What is my mistake? The first batch of people who submitted a letter to celebrate the emperor was Chen. How could this happen if the wise ruler do this?"

Lin Huanyu was still laughing: "Your Majesty had an order before, saying that he would choose the best among the scholars of Annan to join the Imperial College. Who did you choose?"

Chen Xingye's face was even more shady and shady: "Chen chose Ruan Yichen. This boy is of top quality, both knowledge and character. What is Chen's fault?"

After stuttering twice, Lin Huanyu continued: "Mr. Chen's ability to lie with his eyes open is no worse than those in the East Factory!

What a pity, the Jinyiwei has always been reliable in doing things. If there is no real evidence, how could he come to him?"

Seeing that in addition to the Jinyiwei and soldiers he brought to the wall, there were many Annan people looking at him secretly. Lin Huanyu raised his voice and said, "Ruan Yichen is good at going to the brothels and Chu Pavilion on weekdays. The Ruan family has been forcibly buying and selling the land of the people over the years, forcing the people's families to be destroyed. Don't you know?

Even if you don’t know these things, you won the 5,000 taels of silver from Ruan Chengdong after Ruan Yichen. Isn’t this accusation of you?”

Chen Xingye's face suddenly turned pale.

There was indeed a case of 5,000 taels of silver, but at that time, only he and Ruan Chengdong's confidant were present. How did the Jinyiwei know?

Lin Huanyu laughed and then said, "Don't explain to me, I'm too lazy to listen. You should settle down at the Jinyiwei prison first, and then think about how to explain!"

Waving his hand, a group of lieutenants who were like wolves and tigers grabbed Lin Xingye and his family and walked out, shouting loudly as they walked: "Look! Chen Xingye received 5,000 taels of silver from Ruan Chengdong, and wanted to send Ruan Yichen, the scum, to the Imperial College, and then let him become an official and come back to bully you! Look at it!"

Chen Xingye let out a mouthful of old blood and fainted after squirting out a mouthful of old blood.

Killing someone to kill your heart!

These damn Jinyiwei not only arrested all his elders and young people, but also called out the fact that he had collected 5,000 taels of silver, for fear that someone would not hear it.

In this way, my reputation is really stinking, and it is the kind that is inauspicious.

If the killers of the Jinyiwei did not yell loudly, even if they suffered losses and were dismissed from the official position, it would be easy to say.

At worst, you can go back to your hometown honestly and then raise your reputation, and you still have hope of becoming an official again.

Now, everything has become a bubble.

And it is obvious that after their reputation becomes bad, the entire family will be ashamed of themselves, even if they have gained countless benefits from themselves before!

But Lin Xingye is not alone.

The Jinyiwei has always been reliable in doing business. Since he has found a Lin Xingye, Ruan Chengdong, Hu Xingye, Xu Chengdong and others will be in prison together and Lin Xingye will be accompanied by Lin Xingye.

In addition, the Jinyiwei's work efficiency has always been very high. In other words, the skills in investigating matters and frame-up are full of skills in the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty officialdom has been played by Jinyiwei and the East Factory for more than two hundred years. The officials' shrewdness has long been beyond the eight streets of Annan officials.

However, it was useless. The officials of the Ming Dynasty were all played by Jinyiwei and Dongchang, not to mention the slap of Annan.

As for things like conscience, Jinyiwei, who was the only one who said he had already thrown it to feed the dog.

In just over ten days, a major earthquake occurred in the officialdom and the people around Annan Hanoi.

The officials involved were both high and low, plus the wealthy merchants, hundreds of people were arrested, and the relatives of these hundreds of people and other people involved and framed them, the total number was nearly 10,000.

Nearly 10,000 people were directly cut off by Emperor Chongzhen’s order, but the people were cheering, and no one scolded Emperor Chongzhen for killing innocent people indiscriminately.

Emperor Chongzhen said that this operation was normal.

Normally, killing wealthy merchants is actually a good thing, and killing officials is a great thing. The people, scholars, and other wealthy merchants will only applaud and applaud without jumping out to cause trouble.

Only when officials are killed will the official positions be vacant, and lower-level officials will have room for growth. Those scholars will have more opportunities to learn, and businessmen will also make a fortune in the face of the huge market that has suddenly become vacant.

Especially in Annan, readers who have the right to speak and lower-level officials joined forces to pour dirty water on those killed, and kept praising Emperor Chongzhen. The people of the people quickly realized that these corrupt people should be damned, and none of them were innocent.

Only when a fool who does not have the right to speak or cannot kill people will he be angry and resentful.

In addition, the Jinyiwei was secretly fueling the fire, and Annan all strangely appeared in an extremely peaceful situation.

No one jumped out at this critical moment to cause trouble, and no one even shook his flag to rebel.

Almost everyone in the whole Annan was waiting, waiting for Emperor Chongzhen to pass the exam after the so-called Encyclopedia begins, then enter the Imperial College for further study, and then become a member of the local area.

Even if he is a seventh-rank county magistrate.

At least, after having an official position, the suffering I suffered over the past ten years will not be in vain. The money I spent before can also see hope of making a profit.

Emperor Chongzhen was extremely disappointed.

Although Emperor Chongzhen did not intend to completely cause chaos in Annan at the beginning, he still had to rely on Annan to continue producing grain.

But the situation in front of me was too calm, and it could even be said to be calm and boring.

Master Zheng and Master Ruan, the two little puffs who actually controlled Annan, were killed without any resistance. The former king Li Weiqi was even worse than a dog, and the whole family was neatly arranged.

If these three people, and their nine tribes, did not cause turmoil among the Annan people, what about this time?

There were more than 10,000 people this time!

However, the heads of more than 10,000 people fell to the ground, and it seemed that the Annan people were not rebellious, and there was not even a single one shaking the flag. It seemed that the Annan people collectively became good babies overnight

What about those who had been rebelling during the Yongle period and the Xuande period?

Now that Annan has even been slaughtered, the ministers have almost wiped out all of them. What are they waiting for if these people have not rebelled?

It really embarrasses their ancestors!

This made Emperor Chongzhen very uncomfortable, and at the same time, he felt very bored and so bored that he missed homesome.

What should the Ming Dynasty look like now?

Although the Jinyiwei sent new secret reports almost every day, Emperor Chongzhen still thought about the Ming Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, especially when he couldn't go out and cut people with a knife, this was even more so.

How much railway has been built? What are the big guys of the Royal Academy now trying to do? What are the Queen Zhou and Concubine Yi and others thinking now? Are you looking forward to going back soon?

There are still the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Revenue, etc., what are they doing?

In fact, Fang Zhuangli of the Ministry of Personnel and Guo Yunhou of the Ministry of House were sitting together to drink tea.

After putting down the teacup in his hand, Fang Zhuangli said: "It's not that I don't listen to your advice, but that I can't do it anymore.

His Majesty continues to expand territory, but there are only so many people admitted to the imperial examination every year. In addition to the corrupt people who were caught by factory guards, the staff of officials are becoming increasingly insufficient."

Guo Yunhou frowned and said, "Your Ministry of Personnel is not enough officials, how can my Ministry of Revenue be better than you? Although the treasury has become increasingly full in recent years, our Majesty is also a person who can spend money. Every time at the end of the year, my head starts to ache."

After sighing, Guo Yunhou continued, "But what can I do? I can't let it go! If I don't take the national treasury tightly, I'm afraid that His Majesty will spend it more happily in the future!"

Fang Zhuangli waved her hand with a smile and said, "Don't persuade me, I know what you are thinking and what you are going to say, but, I have decided to leave, so don't persuade me again.

It’s not that I don’t want to serve Your Majesty, but that I really can’t help it.

Do you know that in Myanmar and Mughals alone, there are more than a thousand officials from the second to seventh ranks. This is almost a Jinshi who can only be admitted to the three imperial examinations.

It takes two years for one imperial examination, and three imperial examinations to take six years.

Also, the students who just passed the Jinshi need to walk among the six ministries for half a year to study. Where can I get so many officials out in a while?

Even if you add the Nanjing Ministry of Personnel, you can't do it at all!

What's more, His Majesty got much more than Myanmar and Mughals, but also Annan. Annan also needs officials!

Although it is a great thing to take back Annan, who has been separated from my Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years, what about the officials? Where can I change it?

Besides, I am already eighty-six, so I can’t hold on anymore!”

Hearing Fang Zhuangli sighing, Guo Yunhou couldn't help but be silent.

It is said that life is rare in seventy years, but Fangbutang has dragged his body until he is 86 years old and has not yet left the court.

In fact, when he was in his sixties and seventies, he should have retired and returned home to support Tiannian. It was not that he had resigned from his post, but he did not dare to mention it in the first year of Chongzhen, for fear that Emperor Chongzhen would be beaten to death by Donglin Party.

It was mentioned once in the third year of Chongzhen, but Emperor Chongzhen did not allow it.

In the fifth year of Chongzhen, he wanted to mention that Emperor Chongzhen led his troops out to fight against others... Until the thirteenth year of Chongzhen, Fang Zhuangli had not yet proposed to retire and return home, and Emperor Chongzhen ran away again.

Fortunately, there are not too many things happening in the Ministry of Personnel, and it is always easier than the Ministry of Revenue. Otherwise, Guo Yunhou would have doubted whether Fang Zhuangli would die of exhaustion in office.

In fact, it’s not just the house magnificent, but how good can I be? There is also Xue Fengxiang from the Ministry of Works, who is basically old and can’t walk anymore, and now he always gets sick at home.

They are all old, even Mr. Wen, who "everyone thinks it is flattering", is already sixty-eight years old. In the Ming Dynasty, the important officials are already decades old, and it is time to give way to those behind.

In fact, what can I do if I don’t let it go?

A large group of old people in their sixties, seventies, seventies and eighties, even if they can survive, how many years can they survive? Ten years or eight years?

The Ming Dynasty has changed so much now that it is becoming a bit incomprehensible. The old guys are no longer able to keep up. If you continue to hold on, it will only hinder other people's path to progress. What's the point?

It would be better to retreat early or learn from Shi Fenglai, and go overseas early to be the governor of the whole place to make your life better.

After sighing, Guo Yunhou said, "Forget it, I plan to retreat too. Now that Your Majesty's situation has been completed, I will nostalgia for the high position again. I am afraid that if you drag your Majesty back in the future, it would be better to go back earlier. It can be regarded as a good story of the king and the ministers' friendship."

Fang Zhuangli was also worried: "Yes, the stall in the Ming Dynasty is too big now, and you and I are both old.

Now I am a little worried when facing the Mughals and the officials in need in Myanmar. If I say this, who would have thought of what the dignified official of the Ministry of Personnel said?”

Guo Yunhou was about to speak again, but outside the door, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel rushed over. After walking to Fang Zhuangli, he leaned over and said, "Jiuzhou Island urgently reported. Governor Shi, I am afraid that it will not last long, and even this year may not be able to survive."

Fang Zhuangli was frightened and stood up and said, "Has the news been sent to the pavilion?"

The right assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel said: "The news has been sent to the cabinet, and it must be delivered to His Majesty soon."

After nodding, Fang Zhuangli said to Guo Yunhou: "Now Master Shi can't hold on anymore. He is younger than the two of us."

Guo Yunhou sighed: "Time is forbidden!"

In the cabinet, Wen Tiren, whose beard was completely white, also found Tian Ergeng, who was left in the capital and was responsible for the round-trip message transmission: "This news must be delivered to Your Majesty in the shortest time."

Tian Ergeng nodded and said, "The Lord of the Imperial Palace knew that Shi Ge had made contributions to support him and guarded the Kyushu Island in Japan in his 80s. This news will inevitably be delivered to His Majesty in the shortest time."

After Tian Ergeng left, Wen Tiren picked up other memorials and read them again.

However, the more you look at it, the more you become, the more confused you feel.

Shi Fenglai is ten years older than him, and now he can't hold on. Where is he? How long can he last?

ps: The second batch of 5 big roosters have been mailed out. By the way, the book "Rebirth of the Business Sea" is recommended.
