The ancestor of the apocalypse is so cool after being reborn!
Chapter 105 The princess made a move, and the Tong family was passive.
Chapter 105 The princess made a move, and the Tong family was passive.
Xia Jing snorted coldly: "What can disturb my concubine, I think Mr. should be asking the question knowingly!"
Very dissatisfied with their ability to do things.
Mr. Zhang smiled and turned to look at King Qian.
"." King Qian's face darkened.
This old man loves to provoke this crazy woman, and when he provokes, he wants him to put out the fire.
"You might as well stop being a bureaucrat and go directly to heaven!"
See what you can, why not go to heaven?
Mr. Zhang blinked at King Qian, ouch!My lord, in this situation, don't worry about whether I can go to heaven or not, you should hurry up and find a way to deal with the princess.
It's a pity that King Qian didn't understand his silent words when he blinked, and there was no tacit understanding at all.
Sitting in front of the desk, Xia Jing saw Mr. Zhang blinking eyelids, and Wang Qian, who saw nothing to do with her, turned his head to one side.
The corners of her mouth twitched slightly, "Sir, your eyelids are cramping? Do you want to call the doctor over here to have a look?"
"...Ah? Ah, no need, Princess Xie is concerned, and my minister is fine." Mr. Zhang smiled awkwardly.
Xia Jing knocked on the desk: "Since there is nothing wrong, let's talk about the wasteland in the outskirts of the city. You should know what the increase in arable land means in Lingnan today, right?"
Mr. Zhang nodded reservedly, "I know that an increase in arable land means an increase in taxes, an increase in food production, and fewer people going hungry."
Xia Jing glared angrily at the inaction men, "Since you know the stakes, why don't you deal with it?"
King Qian couldn't keep silent any longer, and said weakly: "Aren't we discussing this?"
"Has the discussion come to fruition?" Xia Jing followed closely.
King Qian cleared his throat, and straightened his back a little, "We decided to deal with the soldiers first, and send the gentleman to the door to warn them. If they don't listen, pay the fine according to the law."
Xia Jing sneered without giving the slightest bit of face: "According to your rules, when a set of procedures is completed, the solar terms will be over, and even if you open up a wasteland, you will not be able to catch up with Xia Zhong!"
The summer planting misses the season, and the autumn harvest is less harvested.
This is something that every farmer knows, but when he came to King Qian, he thought about managing first and then fighting?
According to their way of doing things, if they continue to argue with each other for a while, this year's grain planting plan and military expansion plan will be completely ruined!
Next, are the three aristocratic families planning to take control of the palace in terms of food and supplies?At that time, what materials the palace needs will depend on their faces?
Those who hinder the development of Lingnan and hinder the growth of the Wangfu are the enemies of the Wangfu.
Why do enemies need to be gentle?
"This..." Hearing what Xia Jing said, King Qian also felt that he thought things too simply.
This time Xia Jing was too lazy to ask them, and directly ordered: "Send someone to invite the heads of Tong, Lou, and Chen to the yamen for tea!"
The two gentlemen Zhang and Yan looked at each other, and wisely arranged for someone to pass on the message.
Forgive them not because there is nothing they can do about these three families, but because they are used to King Qian's way of doing things, they subconsciously followed the pace of King Qian.
Afterwards, Xia Jing asked for all the materials registered by Tong, Lou, and Chen's family in the yamen, such as all the land deeds, house deeds, and shops in the Lingnan jurisdiction, as well as the various taxes and taxes handed over to the imperial court every year, and the number of servants under their banners. , livestock, etc.
In the end, they were sorted into categories and piled up in front of Xia Jing.
Xia Jing stared at the mountain of materials in front of her, her face was so dark that ink dripped out.
No matter whether the family is in the Central Plains or the border, it is a cancer of the imperial court!
They recommend young talents to enter the officialdom through inspections and filial piety, and then continue to win over talents and become their own disciples, so as to strengthen the influence of the family.
As a result, over time, the disciples of the aristocratic family and the old officials are all over the world!
This is the so-called aristocratic family in this era.
Rather than talking about the royal family, it is better to say that the family and the monarch rule the world together!
They evaded taxes, ran rampant in the countryside, hoarded land, forced self-cultivators into slaves, concentrated all the land in their hands, strengthened themselves, and harmed the interests of the court.
Xia Jing didn't have time to check their assets page by page. She only checked the total land area they owned and how much tax they paid every year?How many servants do you have under your name?
If the area of cultivated land and taxes do not match, it means that there are many hidden households under their names.
Anyway, in a word, Xia Jing is here to find fault today!
Several people in the study carefully observed Xia Jing's expression, and saw that she lowered her head slightly to check the information, and the more she looked at the back, the more she frowned.
Mr. Zhang swallowed, and explained what he knew about Tong, Lou, and Chen, "Tong, Lou, and Chen are all centuries-old families in Lingnan, and the history of the three families was not very glorious.
Today, the Tong family's business in Lingnan is mainly grain.The Lou family mainly uses cotton, linen and mulberry silk as raw materials to produce cloth and sell it to various places. Most of the cloth shops in the counties and cities of Lingnan are operated by the Lou family.In the end, the Chen family was left, and their main business scope was restaurants and inns. "
The three industries of food, clothing, housing and transportation account for three industries.
Of course, it doesn't mean that these companies only do regular business, they are also involved in other industries, but they mainly focus on food, clothing and housing.
Tong, Lou, and Chen's family, as Xia Jing expected, all said that the head of the family is not at home, so please leave a message if you have anything to do.
Xia Jing laughed back angrily, "They are sure that Prince Qian's mansion has just arrived at the precious land, so there is nothing they can do about them, right?"
King Qian scratched his nose. The reason why he hesitated not to come to the door was because he was afraid that the current scene would be humiliating himself!
He was the dignified first-rank prince of the Great Yu Dynasty, and he had never lost face so much.
When Xia Jing turned her gaze, she slapped her palm on the table and was furious: "Presumptuous! It's just a third-rate family in the borderlands, how dare you not take this king seriously, it seems that this king Be too polite to them, Wangfei, don't stop me, I will send someone to destroy them right now!"
Xia Jing watched his performance coldly, and sneered when it was over: "Third-rate families are also aristocratic families. Although they are not as good as the aristocratic families in the Central Plains, they still have a place in Lingnan."
King Qian didn't quite agree with this, "Princess, how do you make their ambitions destroy your prestige?"
"When you were young, your husband asked you to read, but you climbed trees and picked out birds. If you didn't read well, you can't be good at writing or martial arts. You're going to fight with soldiers, and you won't fight without fighting. Do you understand? Don't encounter trouble Just yelling, beating and killing, that will only make you appear incompetent!"
Xia Jing's words were not serious, her face flushed with arrogance, if the person in front of her was not the concubine, he would be dragged out and chopped up!
Mr. Zhang's complexion was distorted. He found that if the current princess is concerned about the prince's face, it is fine, but if she has no scruples, she dares to say anything.
What the hell!King Qian patted the desk and said angrily: "You think this king is weak and incompetent, since you can, then you can do it! This king will see how you solve this matter today!"
Xia Jing ignored King Qian's anger, pulled out one of the ledgers on the table with a cold face, and shouted out: "Ding Dazhuang stepped forward to obey the order!"
As soon as the words fell, Ding Dazhuang ran in from the outside, "Ding Dazhuang, the first squadron leader of the personal guard camp, has seen the princess."
Xia Jing handed over the account book to him, "Lou's cloth shop is suspected of tax evasion and fabricated false account books, go and seize all Lou's cloth shop in Lingnan Prefecture to my concubine!"
Mr. Zhang was dumbfounded. It was just a simple tax account book. How could the princess know that there was something wrong with Lou Shibu?
Xia Jing didn't care what other people thought, after Ding Dazhuang ran out, she shouted again: "Wei Dong stepped forward to listen to the order!"
As soon as the words were finished, another tall and strong man ran in from the door, "Wei Dong, the captain of the Fourth Squadron of the Personal Guard Battalion, has seen the princess!"
"Very good!" Xia Jing also handed him a tax account book, "Tong's Grain Store is suspected of tax evasion and created false account books, you go and seal up all the Tong's Grain Stores in Fucheng to this princess!"
King Qian stroked his forehead, the excuses for the seizure are all the same, isn't this intentional to find fault?
Xia Jing once again called Yan Qiong, the captain of the fifth squadron of the guard camp, and her instructions remained unchanged. Finally, she specially explained: "There must be many guests in Chen's restaurant and inn. You must be kind to the guests. They explained it clearly and asked them to ask the store to refund the room fee and then seize it!"
snort!
Didn't the three great families of Tong, Lou, and Chen take Qian Wangfu seriously, and she made them bleed this time.
Only when the knife is stuck on them will they know the pain!
"Princess, the reason you gave is too perfunctory." Mr. Zhang shook his head. Although he said that he would drop ten meetings with one force, he was afraid that the people would not accept it!
"Ordinary merchants will have tricks in their account books, not to mention the aristocratic family that has been rampant in Lingnan for a hundred years. They have been blatant in falsifying their accounts. They dare not trouble the officials. This concubine is also taking advantage of their arrogance this time!"
The sudden attack caught them off guard and didn't even give them a chance to cover up their accounts.
Tong's main house.
Butler Tong dismissed the person sent by King Qian to deliver the message, and went into the study of the Patriarch of the Tong family.
"Master, people have already been sent away, will we offend King Qian by doing this?"
The Patriarch of the Tong family has entered the age of knowing his fate. He is not tall and has thin hair. In order to cover his baldness, he wears a black gauze hat all the year round.
Hearing the steward's worries now, he laughed: "A phoenix in distress is not as good as a chicken. Now that the world is in chaos, so what if he is a first-rank prince? The Yu Dynasty is like a pan of loose sand, and the emperor's power is weak. He wants to take his prince." His name is used to oppress people with power, and it depends on whether everyone buys him or not!"
On the land of Lingnan, as long as he and Lou and Chen are tied together, then Lingnan will be monolithic, and even if the king of heaven comes, he will have to lie on his stomach!
How could he let King Qian come to him as soon as he beckoned, and go away immediately!
"Father, isn't he afraid that King Qian will wear small shoes for us?" Tong Song walked in from the outside and sat calmly under the head of the Tong family's head.
"He dares!" The Patriarch of the Tong family didn't get angry and prestige, with a displeased expression on his face, "If he dares to wear small shoes for us, I will make it difficult for him to walk in Lingnan, maybe someday an accident will not be impossible!"
After all, the head of the Tong family narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking about the feasibility of this matter, and he thought it was a good idea.
Tong Song showed disapproval, "The situation in the world is complicated today, even a powerful official like Yuan Rujiang, the governor of Jingzhou, at least on the surface, respects King Qian, and will never leave a word for the people of the world, and will not be criticized by those sour scholars.
Could it be that father's current influence and power are stronger than Yuan Rujiang's? "
"I" was said by his son, and the head of the Tong family, Mr. Tong, broke out in cold sweat on his forehead.
Tong Song sighed: "Father, what you did today was impulsive."
Master Tong immediately retorted: "Aren't I just angry because I want to show him off? In the land of Lingnan, who would dare to neglect my master so much? Even Quanhe once respected us when he was in office. He is an idiot. Who gave him the face, my lord?"
Tong Song snorted coldly: "Quanhe and King Qian are fundamentally different, how can you generalize them?"
Master Tong knew that he had done something wrong, but he wanted to save face in front of his son, and he would not admit that he was wrong!
Seeing his father's resistance, Tong Song was afraid that no matter how much he said, he wouldn't be able to listen, so it's better not to talk in vain, and let him calm down first.
Just when he was about to leave the study and ask the housekeeper to back up a generous gift to apologize to Qian Wangfu, he saw the housekeeper walking quickly in a panic.
"Master, Master, something is wrong!"
Tong Song was just trying to tell the butler not to rush and speak slowly, but Master Tong scolded from the study: "The sky hasn't fallen yet, what are you doing in such a hurry?"
Butler Tong wiped the sweat from his forehead, and quickly walked into the study to plead guilty to the owner, "What the master taught me is that the little one lost his sense of propriety."
Master Tong coughed lightly, and his voice softened, "Tell me, what happened that deserves your fuss?"
Butler Tong, "There is news from the grain shop that the government government has sealed up all our grain shops in Fucheng."
"Seizure? This matter must have been done by King Qian!" Tong Song looked determined, and looked at Master Tong meaningfully.
At the beginning, Master Tong's words were too full, you see the slap in the face came so fast!
King Qian either didn't do it, or he did a big thing if he did.
Butler Tong nodded: "The reason for the seizure is that our grain shop is suspected of tax evasion, manufacturing false books, and shoddy."
Master Tong laughed angrily, "What a suspected tax evasion, shoddy! It seems that King Qian never thought of making friends with us local families from the beginning to the end!"
"Sure enough, the rumors are misleading. We were all deceived by him. If you think about it, King Qian pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger. Judging by his way of handling things today, he is a bit decisive and ruthless!"
These two characters look exactly like two people!
The Tong family despised women from the bottom of their hearts. They never thought about Princess Qian who was fighting alongside King Qian.
Tong Song was not surprised, "Tianhuang nobleman, who came out of the court of intrigue, who doesn't have a few faces to show others, if you believe that he is an idiot, then you will lose."
Tong Song was quite surprised, because at first he also thought that King Qian was an idiot prince.
Almost fell into his trap!
Master Tong walked back and forth in the study a few times, trying to struggle a little: "What do you think about this matter? Are we really going to bow to him this time for peace?"
This time they bowed their heads, and they would never be able to straighten their backs in front of King Qian again.
Tong Song frowned tightly, with a look of embarrassment on his face, "The moment you rejected King Qian's invitation in this incident, we were in a passive situation."
Compromised with King Qian, what do the people and aristocratic families in Lingnan think of them?
At that time, they will lose face. Who in Lingnan will take their Tong family seriously?
If there is no compromise, King Qian will really use the Tong family to scare the chickens and monkeys, and they will lose more than they gain!
