Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

The refugees in the Song Dynasty were notoriously a major social problem.

National resources are quickly devoured by the upper class, and not even a little bit is left to the people below.

As a result, at this time, the lands of Hebei and Hedong were not only swept by the Jin army, but also thieves were everywhere, and the people were in dire straits.

Seeing this, Zhao Ning was angry and happy at the same time.

Anger is anger at the inaction of Zhao Song's successive officials, so that the country is riddled with holes. It has only been more than 100 years since the founding of the country, and interest groups have already gnawed at the country.

Now there are not only ethnic conflicts, but also internal class conflicts!

I am happy because there are not too many officials on this list.

This Wang Xun not only has his own iron smelting workshop and fertile land, but also deals in tea.

The Northern Song Dynasty was the period when tea really began to rise. During this period, most of the tea was still planted in the south and transported to the capital by water canal.

If the tea is shipped to the north, the price will double.

If it is shipped to the northwest, the price can be increased seven or eight times.

This is also the reason why the entry into China of the Great Song Dynasty was so profitable.

Chayin itself is a very precious resource, just like in the 21st century, if you want to acquire land, you have the qualification certificate to buy land.

Wang Xun not only obtained the qualification to smelt iron, but also obtained a large amount of tea, transporting the tea to Hebei and selling it at a high price.

To get these, he naturally sent a lot of money to some officials.

After Zhao Ning finished reading, he was ecstatic in his heart, but frowned, and said angrily: "Any officials involved should be brought to the Imperial City Division first, and interrogated one by one, and deal with it immediately!"

Gao Qiu said: "Officials, Taifu Temple officials are involved in this matter, should the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple be involved?"

"I told you to go get the person first! Let me arrest the person first and take him to the Imperial City Division! The Imperial City Division will interrogate it first, and those who are guilty can go through whatever procedure they should follow!"

"Yes! I will do it now!"

Just as Gao Qiu went out, the emperor's voice came from behind: "Come back!"

Gao Qiu hurriedly turned back: "Official, what else can I order?"

"I asked you to send someone to the north bank of the Yellow River to investigate the situation. How is the investigation going?"

"Going back to the official's house, I can confirm that Zongze is supporting His Highness King Kang of the Daming Mansion. This is what I heard in Cizhou when I went to arrest Wang Xun. Wang Xun wanted to sell grain to Zongze at a high price for this reason."

"As for the others, they are still being collected."

Gao Qiu thought in his heart that Jin Jun had only retreated for less than half a month, even if my people could fly, it would be impossible to get all the detailed information back immediately.

"The Ma Kuo who asked you to send someone to look for it, did you send someone there?"

"went."

"In Bianjing, how is the river transportation recently?"

"It's all recovered. I have inquired about it. Many ships are sailing southeast, probably to transport grain. I also inquired that a large number of merchants have gone south, probably to buy grain. Now as long as they are transported and can be eaten, they can be eaten." Sell ​​at a high price."

"I see, you go down quickly to get someone."

"Yes!"

Who are the officials involved this time?

The two chief registrars of Du Chachang and the three chief registrars of Yantie Division.

There are also the master book of Taifu Temple and the prime minister of Taifu Temple.

Of course, it also mentioned the steward of King Yun's mansion.

What kind of government office is Du Chachang?

This is the tea-selling department set up by Cai Jing in order to make money for Song Huizong Zhao Ji.

Needless to say, the Department of Yantie has departments such as Duyan Case, Tea Case, and Iron Case, all of which are related to Yantie Tea.

what?

Isn't this a repeat?

This is nothing, because this is the yamen of my Great Song Dynasty, isn't it normal to repeat two?

Then why did the people from Taifu Temple get involved again?

Because there are tea warehouses, Bianhe upper and lower locks, Duti City Yisi, Xiangyao warehouse and other departments under Taifu Temple.

Of course, there are many departments under Taifu Temple.

Tea is also involved in Taifu Temple?

That's right, it's also involved!

This is one of the characteristics of the Song Dynasty: redundant officials!

There is no most redundant, only more redundant.

Taifu Temple was established as a separate yamen during Wang Anshi’s Reform. official?

After Wang Anshi left, the reformists and the conservatives fought to the death. Later, when Cai Jing, the reformist, came to power, how could it be possible to abolish the Taifu Temple?

But Cai Jing set up another tea farm in the capital, and began to use tea to attract money.

In this way, the yamen of the Great Song Dynasty accumulated day by day, and the number of officials increased day by day.

Officials have positions, salaries, extra money, no work, duplication of functions, mutual evasion, why not do it!

Therefore, the case of Wang Xun is a very typical case.

Pulling carrots with mud, doing business in the Song Dynasty, or doing business in tea and iron, naturally hurt relations with these yamen.

No, all my money is waving at me!

By the way, a group of officials who were serving vegetarian meals were killed to save manpower expenses for the court.

One word: cool!

At this time, the city of Tokyo still didn't know that the biggest case since Jingkang was coming.

This was a bloodbath, and for the first time exposed the sharp internal contradictions since Jingkang.

Chapter 73

Why do you say that this can be the biggest case since Jingkang?

A group of officials have been involved in the Iron Armor case of the Armed Forces Supervision before, how old is it?

That's different.

In Wang Xun's case, it was related to Wang Xun's forced purchase of fertile land in the local area.

This incident, to a small extent, was the norm in the Song Dynasty.

On a larger scale, as long as Zhao Ning is willing to be serious, he can take this matter, investigate the officials involved this time, and pull out a few more radishes.

Obviously, Zhao Ning is ready to be serious.

After Gao Qiu came out of the palace, he immediately returned to the Si Yamen of the imperial city, and went to arrest people in three groups.

They went to Yantiesi, Duchachang and Taifu Temple respectively.

These three yamen are all Feishui yamen, and they all deal with money and business.

When the people from the Imperial City Division arrived, they were still making tea and chatting in the yamen. Even Wang Chuanqing, the prime minister of Taifu Temple, was going to go outside the Donghua Gate to talk to his sister about life. Go and get arrested.

"You! What are you doing! This is the important place of Taifu Temple Yamen!"

"We are from the Imperial City Division, everyone, we have nothing else to do, just want to invite you back for a cup of tea."

"Nonsense, when will the Imperial City Secretary have the power to take people at will, you should step back quickly, otherwise I will go to His Majesty with a piece of paper, and I won't be able to eat it!"

Commander He Bin said: "Okay! Go back to the Imperial City Division and give him a piece of paper, let him write! If you don't write [-] characters, don't stop! Someone, arrest me!"

"You dare!"

"Arrests!"

But when they saw several people from the Imperial City Division come up, they took Wang Chuanqing into custody, and the officials inside who were drinking tea and chatting poked their heads out one after another.

He Bin rushed in with the people, took another master book, and took the people away under the shocked expressions of all the officials.

The officials of the Taifu Temple suddenly became furious like a cat that stepped on its tail!

These Qiu Ba of the Imperial City Division are too rampant!

We want to impeach them!

Everyone returned to their positions angrily, picked up their pens and began to write impeachment memorabilia with a look of righteousness on their faces.

Now not only the people from Taifu Temple are writing vigorously, but also people from Duchachang and Yantiesi have started to write.

Each of the officials seemed to be possessed by Fan Zhongyan, who was obviously impeaching the Secretary of the Imperial City, and put on a posture of "worry about the world's worries first, and enjoy the world's joy later".

Gao Lian's speed is nothing short of unpleasant, a real man!

At noon, those officials were invited to "drink tea" in the Imperial City Division.

Wang Chuanqing looked confused: Where's the tea?Didn't you want me to come over for tea?Why are you still in handcuffs, why are you still tied me up, ah...

Others were also handcuffed.

The people from the Imperial City Division began to whip and drop wax on these officials.

Imperial City Secretary: Tell me!Say it!

Wang Chuanqing: Stop hitting!Stop hitting!

Imperial City Secretary: Tell me!If you don't say anything, you will be beaten to death!

Wang Chuanqing: Tell me!What did you say!You are asking!Start playing as soon as you come up!Ask nothing!What did I say!

At noon, when Gao Qiu was busy serving those officials and lords with a whip, Zhao Ning went to change into a suit of armor, led the imperial guards, and left Tokyo all the way to the new army camp in the north of the city.

I'm about to cut someone down, I have to meet with the army, get in touch with each other, and if there is an unexpected situation, the army can be used to cover the situation.

Zhao Ningshun took Yue Fei with him.

Yue Fei originally wanted to return to Hebei to return to his command, but Zhao Ning temporarily stayed in Bianjing.

Regarding Zong Ze's matter, there will be new arrangements in the future. It is useless for Yue Fei to go back now. It is better to stay in the capital for a while.

The news that officials from Taifu Temple, Yantie Division, and Duchachang were arrested by Huangcheng Division quickly spread to Dongfu.

Mo Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, was in the political affairs hall. After hearing about this, instead of immediately thinking of going to the emperor for a judgment, he immediately began to figure out what happened.

He immediately ran quietly to the Imperial City Department to find Gao Qiu and inquired about the whole story.

It stands to reason that arresting officials at will is equivalent to stepping on a cat's tail in the Song Dynasty.

But our Mo Choo and Mo Shangshu don't think so now, he began to figure out the problem of standing in line.

Now that Zhao Ding is in charge of the Political Affairs Hall, he is preparing supplies to enter the capital. The situation in the court is changing. I heard that Li Gang is going back to the capital.

Is this Zhao Ding a reformist or a conservative?

Will he exclude himself?

Could it be another Chae Kyung?

What will happen to the court situation after Li Gang returns?

Do you still have a place of your own?

Mo Chou really felt his own political crisis.

Therefore, he was ready to kneel and lick Zhao Guan's house.

That Gao Qiu knelt down and licked, and now he is so majestic that he walks sideways in Tokyo, and no one dares to provoke him.

Go to kneel and kneel and kneel and lick myself, and then build a good relationship with Gao Qi, will I be able to fight against the next new changes in the court situation soon!

Knowing this, Mo Choi, a little wit, immediately ran to the palace, ready to fight his kneeling and licking skills.

You see, bureaucrats are never monolithic, they compete for interests and fight each other!

Everyone is involving in the stock market. If you don't fight for it, it will be someone else's.

It's a pity that when Mo Chou first arrived at the gate of the palace, he was told that Zhao Guan's family had left the palace.

At this time, upon hearing that the official Zhao family was coming, Zhang Shuye went from the barracks on the south bank of the Yellow River to the camp of the new army, and led the officers of the new army to meet Sheng Jia in person.
