The first thousand two hundred and seventieth chapters of the new journey of five stars out of the East and China (11)

The white catkins are flying all over the capital of the Chinese Empire, indicating that spring is back to the earth. However, the continued drought in the north and the investigation of the rebellion in Ding Hai have cast a haze for the empire's spring scenery. Yang Lian, who once retired and returned home, came to the capital again to meet the emperor with his family. Emperor Zhang Ping'an still respects Yang Lian, the remains of the previous dynasty. He not only summoned Yang Lian alone after the court meeting, but also held a banquet to entertain the old man who had contributed to the development of the Possess City. As the emperor, Zhang Ping'an never treats himself badly in his meals, but he does not overdo it.

Waste, he only served seven or eight dishes per serving of soup when he was entertaining Yang Lian. Emperor Zhang Ping'an still retained the habit of being in the Possess City. The dishes were not exquisite and were more cost-effective. Zhang Ping'an did not like to drink, so he naturally would not persuade him to drink. He poured Yang Lian a glass of wine and frequently distributed dishes after drinking. Zhang Ping'an was nearly forty years and became more and more calm in dealing with people. He knew very well that Yang Lian's purpose of going to the capital this time was nothing more than pleading for the scholars who planned to rebel cases in Ding Hai. Now the emperor Zhang Ping'an and Yang Lian have the status of a monarch and minister, and Yang Lian wanted to use Confucius' theories to educate Zhang Ping'an, and he had concerns.

When Emperor Zhang Ping'an gave Yang Lian a dish, Yang Lian was humble while trying to find a way to find a question to lead to the main topic. Unexpectedly, Zhang Ping'an took the initiative to talk about last year's scientific examination. Since the Southern Examination was suspended, the imperial examinations last year were all recruited by northern Examination, and the most were recruited by the Desub City. It was not because of the southern Examination that Emperor Zhang Ping'an chose Mencius's title of "Born in distress and died in peace" to let thousands of students who took the examination make a decision. The new dynasty of the Chinese Empire lacked officials and planned to admit 300 Jinshi exams. Emperor Zhang Ping'an also added a tribute to this, and admitted more than 700 people at once. The first session of the Empire was the first session of the Empire.

The imperial examination not only did the examination and study on the subject of the policy and also relied on mathematics. Emperor Zhang Ping'an also issued an oral order. In the future, the scientific examinations were handled in accordance with the regulations of this examination. The three-year Chinese scientific examination allowed students from Ponucheng to take advantage of the students, and nearly 90% of the Jinshi came from the Xuanwei envoy of the Ponucheng. The northern scientific examination was carried out smoothly. Emperor Zhang Ping'an asked the Imperial Investigation Office commander Xu Yi'an to arrest the main culprit of the plot, and the number of people involved reached more than 700,000. The reason for the influx of so many people was mainly because Emperor Zhang Ping'an issued an edict to enforce the three tribes. The large-scale investigation of Dinghai's plot against rebellion basically eliminated the forces of the gentry in the south.

Emperor Zhang Ping'an knew very well that the gentry family in the north had been destroyed for years, and it was easy for him to control the north. Although the south had experienced wars, the gentry family that had lasted for hundreds of years was basically intact. They were the backing of scholars to fight against the court. Scholars took the exam on the surface to dissatisfied with the court's implementation of the policy of equal land, but in fact, the gentry family pushed the scholars ahead, and they were secretly implementing national policies against the court. Now the emperor has characterized the quarantine as a rebellion, which is because Zhang Ping'an wanted to use this to eradicate the resistance in the south.

Strength. The Han people have formed the supremacy of imperial power for thousands of years, while the people are controlled by family gentry, while scholars are guided by public opinion. If the emperor cannot handle the relationship with folk gentry well, it is likely to cause a national shock. The root cause of the fall of the Ming Dynasty is that the family of scholars and gentry families join forces to annex the land. If the new dynasty cannot completely resolve this disaster, the reign of the Chinese Empire will not last for more than two hundred years. This problem naturally cannot be left to his descendants to complete, and he must cut off the tumor with his own hands.

Zhang Ping'an, who was good at strategy, started to make plans a few years ago. He used the name of Emperor Xuantong of the Ming Dynasty to eliminate the power of the southern nobles and bureaucratic families. After the founding of the country, the new dynasty issued an edict to exempt the world from taxes for five years, which was to distinguish the gentry and ordinary people and let ordinary people feel hope. Human nature has a dark side. When the people saw the court promulgated a new policy, they were full of longing for their future life, and they naturally became disgusted with the gentry family. However, the gentry family always grasped a large amount of land to fight against the court's national policy of equalizing land. The gentry family would inevitably violate this.

In order to the vital interests of the people, the gentry wanted to cause trouble, but the people who lacked land would not follow them. Without the support of the vast majority of ordinary people, the gentry family wanted to make trouble, so they could only fan the scholars who did not work in farming. At this point, although the scholars in the south had stopped exams and resisted the national policy of equal land, they had fewer support from the people. Dividing and disintegrating was the strength of Emperor Zhang Ping'an. Without the support of ordinary people, there was less resistance to attacking a few gentry families. Even so, the empire's population base was too large, and the number of gentry families in the south was naturally quite large.

The southern gentry families have the right to speak in the local area, which does not mean that they can fight against the imperial army, let alone let these gentry and scholars go to war. They looked at the soldiers holding weapons, except for a few words, and the rest were beaten. The imperial detective city inspection was as high as 20,000, and the cooperation of the Chinese army at the station, it was really not a big effort to capture some rebels who dared not resist. It was just that the number of people arrested these families was a bit large, and gathering these people around Nanjing consumed a lot of food. Emperor Zhang Ping'an's actions to attack the southern scholars violated the court.

The pain points of the officials in the south were that they did not dare to directly confront the cruel and ruthless emperor Zhang Ping'an. Writing memorials made it a consensus that it became their consensus. After becoming emperor, Zhang Ping'an was still relatively lazy. He generally did not like to interfere in civil matters, but he still had to correct the memorials of ministers. The piles of memorials on the desk still gave Zhang Ping'an a great headache, and he had to find opportunities to appease the emotions of the ministers. This opportunity came from Mr. Yang Lian. As an emperor, Zhang Ping'an did not like to kill Han people, and he preferred to destroy the opponent's spiritual level.

Of course, people must be killed in the case of rebellion, otherwise they cannot set an example for their younger generations. Yang Lian and Emperor Zhang Ping'an had two hours of lunch. The emperor was still very nostalgic. After Yang Lian repeatedly persuaded him, Zhang Ping'an gave up the intention of massacre of the rebellion. However, the thirty-seven scholars who were determined to be the main culprit failed to escape the fate of beheading, and their families will be asked to behead after this autumn. Other scholars and gentry who were admitted to the crime of rebellion, although Emperor Zhang Ping'an did not kill them, he asked the court officials to protect them. Emperor Zhang Ping'an promised Yang Lian that every court official could

In order to protect the ten families of the case of rebellion, if the people in these families commit crimes, the family of the security officials will bear joint and several liability. Those who are involved in the rebellion case will be sentenced to the prison sentence even if the court officials are responsible for the protection. These rebellion will be exiled to the Qierjis area. After receiving the promise from Emperor Zhang Ping'an, Yang Lian happily returned to the temporary residence, which was the residence specially rewarded by Emperor Zhang Ping'an. Zhang Ping'an also left a mansion for Yang Lian in Chang'an City. Shortly after Yang Lian returned to his residence, he slowly came back to his memory. Emperor Zhang Ping'an seemed to have used him as a shield again.

Nowadays, the city waiting for the city is powerful. They hold the documents of the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the city waiting for the government. Zhu Guozhang, a special figure in the government office, was appointed as the painting of the river by Emperor Zhang Ping'an. This official position has no rank but belongs to the emperor's imperial envoy. Although Zhu Guozhang is from Henan, his hometown is Suzhou Prefecture. Zhu Guozhang's grandfather was in Zhangde in the year of the Tianqi of Daming.

After working in the office, he died in office within two years. Because of his integrity, Zhu Guozhang's grandfather did not even have the money to transport the coffin back to his hometown, so Zhu Guozhang's father settled down. After the case of Dinghai's rebellion, Zhu Guozhang's relatives in his hometown of Suzhou went to Shandong to surrender. Although Zhu Guozhang did not eat official meals, the silver pay he received was paid by the emperor's inner treasury. The monthly salary of 150 gold coins per month could make their family live without worries. The Investigation Office has a yamen in Shandong, and they also knew that some people in the Zhu Guozhang family were involved in rebellion. However, Zhu Guozhang had a deep background and the Investigation Office did not dare to come to the door to get people easily.

Xu Yian, the commander-in-chief in Nanjing who dealt with the Dinghai conspiracy case, issued orders to the provincial Investigation Offices. According to the emperor's latest decree, it is necessary to complete the arrest of fugitives in the fourth year of China. In this way, fugitives hiding in the river yamen became the focus of arrest in the Shandong Investigation Office. Yu Wenxian, the Qianzong of the Investigation Office, took the documents of the Investigation Office, and asked the Hedao Yamen to hand over the conspiracy case of the rebellion. Although the river yamen was not under the jurisdiction of the various departments of the court, it was a new yamen established by Emperor Zhang Ping'an. The ownership of the river yamen was also very strange, and he praised all the memorials of Zhu Guozhang to enter the grand ceremony.

The Supervisor's Office reported the emperor, and the money, grain and silver pay were sent out by the emperor's inner treasury, while the surveying and mapping staff were under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Staff, and the guards were under the responsibility of the Emperor's Guards. It was not wrong to arrest the imperial prisoners in the Empire under the imperial edict, but the guards of the Hedao Yamen, Mao Sanxin, were a young man. After reading the official documents of the Detective Office, he directly returned the official documents. Mao Sanxin, the Qiang General of the Guards, told the Detective Office that the Hedao Yamen was the imperially appointed inner treasury of the Emperor, and praised Zhu Guozhang as the emperor's imperial envoy. Without the imperial edict of Emperor Zhang Ping'an, the Detective Office was not allowed to arrest people at will in the Hedao Yamen.

The guard of the river yamen, Qian, did not recognize the emperor's imperial edict in the hands of the detective office, which made the self-esteem of the Qian, Yu Wenxian, hurt. The Chinese Army's guard camp has a different status and they are the emperor's personal army. The detective office and the intelligence department have a clear division of labor. The Chinese Army's illegal intelligence department can report to the inspector of the Grand Marshal's Office for handling, and the detective office cannot interfere in the illegal army. Although the guard of the river yamen, Mao Sanxin, is on par with Yu Wenxian, it is an indisputable fact that the officers of the guard camp and the guard camp in the Chinese Army are one level higher than those of the officers of the war barracks. It is precisely because of these concerns that the Qian, Qian, of the detective office, is

After Yu Wenxian was disappointed in the river yamen, he could only report to the Nanjing commander Xu Yian. The commander Xu Yian was furious after receiving the Shandong newspaper. He immediately wrote a memorial to impeach the river yamen, Mao Sanxin, the Qiangma of the River yamen, to protect the Qin criminals. Emperor Zhang Ping'an had a headache after receiving the memorial. Mao Sanxin, the Qiangma of the Guards, was messed with him. If he couldn't handle this matter well, it would have a serious impact on the investigation of the rebellion case. However, Emperor Zhang Ping'an looked further away, and he needed to deal with the case of Wu Sangui in Yunnan who refused to obey the imperial imperial court. (To be continued)
