789 Sin City
"...It's true that he's a little bit fussy, but he's not a bad intention." Ning Ying thought about Hongsheng's past words and deeds and said to Yinzhen.
Yinzhen snorted and smiled faintly: "I know, let alone the reason for the fifth brother - I have kept Hongsheng decent!"
As he said, he told him what had happened recently.
It turned out that Hongsheng had close subordinates who hurt people outside because of some trivial matters.
In fact, it is a serious matter - although his master and Prince Duan have a very good relationship, his subordinates cannot be considered bullying by relying on their power.
Because the other party first provoked verbally and insulted in every way.
But those who do it first will definitely suffer losses.
The young master who was beaten was not simple in his origin - he was the distant nephew of a senior official of the court. He had just arrived and lost face when he first arrived in the capital, so he was naturally unhappy.
Some of the people watching saw that the situation was wrong, so they quickly reported to the official.
After the infantry commanded the yamen, the soldiers from the yamen arrived and stopped the fight, they tied Hongsheng's subordinates back to the yamen.
Seeing that the situation was so bad, the other servants immediately ran back to the mansion to call someone.
After a while, a bunch of people came to the yamen with guns and sticks, and wanted to take back the people.
Hongsheng also had a tacit attitude.
Now, it was a good thing that the masters could release people by just a few words. After such a quarrel, they immediately attracted a lot of people to watch at the yamen.
The infantry commander's yamen also felt very embarrassed. In addition, the person he took back was obviously the one he had to interrogate, but he was forcibly taken back by the other party.
This undoubtedly makes the yamen very incompetent and loses authority in front of the people.
In awe of shame, the general of the infantry commander's yamen could not swallow this breath, and slapped his head and directly sued the subordinate.
This is the reason why Yinzhen is now trying to rectify the yellow belt.
"All of you are idle!" Yinzhen said.
...
Knowing that he had caused trouble this time, Hongsheng immediately ran to his good brother Honghui to plead with him.
Honghui naturally wanted to plead for him, but he underestimated the Emperor's determination to rectify the yellow belt this time.
Yinzhen not only wanted to take action against Hongsheng's subordinates, but also specially ordered the clan's mansion to report any misconduct.
Other officials can also report it if they know it - as long as the evidence is true.
So, no one expected that after the crime of writing, it took more than half a month to investigate the yellow belt alone - the number of reports in the end was quite scary, and the number of misbehaviors actually exceeded 100 people.
Yinzhen was also surprised, but he didn't expect that there were so many people.
He was really angry this time and immediately ordered all these idle and panicked yellow bands to Shengjing. He would not be allowed to return to the capital without an imperial edict.
Shengjing is the capital - although it is not as prosperous as the capital, it is better to send it here than to be sent to a thousand miles of frontiers.
Although the yellow bands were unhappy, they could only go on the road with a bitter face.
I heard that the emperor even wanted to issue an edict at the beginning - to beat each person to forty boards, and then kneel in front of the ancestral tablet for three days and three nights.
Fortunately, Prince Duan pleaded hard from it.
Hongsheng returned home silently and packed his luggage.
Facing the crying of his wives and concubines, he said impatiently: "Shut up!"
The women in the room were so scared that they didn't dare to speak out.
Hongsheng was so open-minded that he didn't look sad and decadent on his face.
Where do you live your life the same way?
Besides, sooner or later, Honghui will belong to the world in the future.
When Honghui ascended the throne and became emperor, wouldn’t he be taken back to the capital immediately?
...
In Shengjing, the officials had already prepared in fear after hearing that a hundred people were coming with yellow belts.
Long live, after all, they were just sent here, and there was no other punishment.
It's enough to see that Long Live's subordinates are also merciful.
What's more, the emperor and the ministers are the idle royal families today, and they may not be the same tomorrow.
Even for some Shengjing officials, this is a once-in-a-lifetime good time to flatter at close range.
They spent a lot of effort to prepare a very ideal residence for the children of the royal family and erected a new city at the Dongmen of Shengjing.
The new city is commonly known as "Imperial City" or "High Wall", while the local people in Shengjing secretly call it "Sin City" behind their backs.
Although the name sounds bad, the scenery is extremely beautiful.
Shops and landscapes were specially introduced here, and the various places were cleaned up properly. The officials in Shengjing even prepared many exquisite houses for the children of the royal family to ensure that they lived comfortably.
In addition, "official schools" were set up in the Sin City, and young yellow bands not only had food, clothing, daily life, but also came to study.
The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and life here is even more leisurely and comfortable than at the foot of the imperial city.
General Shengjing, Hu and Li, and the two ministries of Li managed the Crime City, and sent doctors and leaders to defend themselves in the royal camp.
In the court, the Ministry of Revenue has also said that according to the will, the salary and rations distributed to the royal family members will be the same as those in the capital, and will not be particularly deducted.
The officials in Shengjing all counted - the Ministry of Revenue, and now Prince Duan is watching.
...
At the end of June of the 13th year of Yongzheng, when the weather was the hottest, Yinzhen felt refreshed after finishing the bad things about this batch of yellow belts.
He issued an order to change his former imperial residence, Prince's Mansion, into Yonghe Palace.
This is not a small project - after all, it was a royal palace to convert a temple, and the types of the two residences are very different.
Not to mention the huge cost, the silver liang alone will be close to 30,000 to 40,000 taels, and the project alone will be very cumbersome.
Starting in five years.
This is all very optimistic.
Yinzhen ordered Prince Duan Honghui to come to the general manager to take charge of this matter, and the specific handling was Haiwang, the left minister of the Ministry of Revenue and the deputy general manager of the Ministry of Revenue.
After a thorough inspection, Haiwang first reported to Prince Duan - changing the palace to Yonghe Palace, five mountain gates, one screen wall, two bell and drum towers, two flagpoles, two stele pavilions, and five Buddhist halls.
Only in this way can we start to a certain scale.
There are also the Heavenly King Hall Dharma Hall, Cooking Hall, Interior Fans, Thresholds, Sea Bars, Buddha Niches, Buddha Cabinets, Bells and Chimes, Oil Paintings, etc.
These trivial matters are gone when reported.
Haiwang bowed in front of Prince Duan, and while talking, he took out a drawing from his arms, held it up with both hands and handed it to Prince Duan.
This drawing looks much more intuitive than the text - where to use what materials, what layout is built into, and what size is the length, width and height, all of them are marked on the paper in small characters of fly heads.
Fortunately, the prince was young, so if he handed it to the palace, he would have to copy another big letter.
Haiwang was handing it up while thinking to himself.
Honghui narrowed his eyes slightly in the sunlight and looked at the drawings - this expression made the sea standing beside him remember the way he looked when he was young.
