Chapter 77 The Servant Daniel (1)
As for the conquest of the eunuch party, it was just a joke. When the eunuch party first occupied the imperial capital, it was the best time to conquer. At that time, no one who served the king appeared. Now the eunuch party has already penetrated all over the Qin Dynasty and has long become a time to conquer? Idiots are not so idiots!
As for separatist and independence, after the eunuch party and local real power sects divided the power, the Qin prefectures were equivalent to separatist forces. They were just from the vassal states controlled by one man and one army before, and became the prefectures and counties that still maintained the government system.
The difference between the two is that the vassal states were warlord forces that were once decided by one person, but the current state powers were not the state governors. As before, the military, political and financial personnel of the entire state had the final say, and they still maintained the previous rules of promotion in the officialdom. If you have a wide range of ways and strong abilities, the county magistrate can still become a state governor.
With the vast area of the Qin prefectures, a state is as huge as a country in the past. The chief officials of the prefectures now exercise the same power as the previous prime minister and general, and it is even greater because the emperor above his head is the same as that of the non-existence! It can be said that the states have long been in a state of separatism, and it can even be said to have been independent! Because the four major powers of military, political and financial personnel are in the hands of each state themselves!
Since the expedition is impossible, separatist and independence have existed for a long time, the current action of placing autumn orders by the prefectures and counties is obviously to prepare for erecting the flag.
The entire Qin officialdom was mentally prepared for what would happen sooner or later, because although the eunuch party nominally controlled the entire country, it actually divided the power of the court with the local government. On the surface, it did stabilize the evil feelings towards the eunuch party below, but this also aroused the ambitions of officials who held real power in various places.
It can even be said that all the officials in the state who held military, political and financial power had long been indulged by the eunuch party. If they had not been concerned about the hundreds of years of rule of the Qin Dynasty, their orthodox status would have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and wars would have been everywhere, so how could they maintain the current unification situation!
Thinking of the actions of Zhoucheng, Zhang Junyao sighed:
"My father, our intelligence network is still not deep enough. Even the chief officials in the prefecture city suddenly had such an idea. The child thought that perhaps something happened to the imperial capital, such as the death of the Emperor of Qin and the blood of the royal family was cut off."
Neither of them cares about such a rebellious word, because with decades of efforts by the eunuch party, the emperor's majesty had long disappeared. Even the county magistrate, the great Qin official, just sighed and said:
"The specific situation is not clear, but the adults in the prefectures must think that the time has come. Alas, our states are just under the name of the subordinates of the Qin Dynasty. They have been doing their own things for decades. It is normal for adults who are burned by ambitions to take such a step."
"What should we do?" Zhang Junyao shook his head and smiled as soon as he said this. He didn't know when the large nest would break out. Maybe it would break out tomorrow. The entire Huyun County will be over. What are the layout of Huyun County in the state?
The county lord obviously knew why Zhang Junyao shook his head, so he smiled:
"Chi'er, what else can we do? Naturally, we followed the footsteps of the city. After all, we have been living under the control of the city for decades. Do we jump out and shout? At that time, it is probably just leaving a few words in the history books."
Just as Zhang Junyao nodded and was about to say something, someone suddenly reported outside the door:
"Sir, Huwo Town has already arrived at the city gate for tax collection this autumn. Please send someone to count it."
"What? Qiu tax collection? It was collected so quickly?" County Zun and Zhang Junyao were both surprised. How difficult it would be to collect the early autumn tax collection this time. They all thought that it would be a good time to pay for a while. In the end, the county sent someone to force the tax collection to collect a batch of supplies. Unexpectedly, towns came to pay the tax now?
"Huh? Huwo Town? Xiao Fei is the director's town? How did he collect it? Didn't someone say that the village below Huwo Town has caused trouble? And he also said that it was a big deal? How could it be collected? It was not that he paid for subsidies by himself, right?" Zhang Junyao immediately remembered the matter of Huwo Town, but he was even more shocked because of this. Because Huwo Town is Chen Fei's hometown, his neighbors will never allow him to force the recruitment, otherwise his reputation will definitely be bad!
Since we cannot force the levy, we naturally have to pay for the subsidy. Does Chen Fei have so much money? Chen Fei's father is a local snake. It turns out that the Huwei Gang's Hunter branch rudder should be able to get this little money!
As for the rumors that the villages below Huwo Town are causing trouble, it is a joke to these officials who have never even been to the towns below. It is just a joke to make trouble in a village, and any fuss about it is not a big deal, even rebellion is not a big deal.
When the tax was collected, there was no trouble in the village below. They were asked to make a fuss, and they would automatically stop after enough trouble. Haven’t they been here like this for so many years?
From this, it can be said that Shen Haofeng and his friends were worried about things, but the county was actually calm, because these officials did not think that a village was rebellious, that is, there was nothing to do with trouble. Therefore, Shen Haofeng and his friends were eager to rush a large amount of wealth to take care of things, which was considered to be self-inflicted.
But there is nothing we can do. Who told Shen Haofeng and the others to have never been officials? They didn’t know how the officials thought about it.
The county lord thought he understood, and couldn't help but smile and stroked his beard and said:
"You guy you recognize is really thinking about you. It's really hard for him to send Qiu Zheng over so early."
Zhang Junyao nodded with a smile. Like the county master, he thought that Chen Fei had collected Qiu Zheng so early because of his face. No one would think that someone would pay private money for business and not take the opportunity to fill his pockets! The reason why Chen Fei paid private money was naturally because of the county master's family's love for him.
Chen Fei, who was waiting at the city gate, suddenly let out a cry because he found a blue dot and a white dot in a room in the county yamen on the map, and it changed instantly, and the blue one turned into green dots! The white one turned into blue dots!
What's going on? Why did I have an extra person for no reason? Sister Zhang Junyao? It's impossible, she has always been green!
Just when he was stunned, the two light spots, one blue, stopped in the room, and the other green moved quickly towards the county government gate, making Chen Fei look at the county government with great curiosity, ready to see which one of his own people who had just turned from blue to green.
However, the county government blocked by the street could not see anything at all, so Chen Fei had to stay at the city gate bored.
The soldiers guarding the gate were smiling and approached Shen Haofeng and others. Although they were under the jurisdiction of the inspection, they knew that the Huwei Gang had collapsed and the branches were incorporated by the new inspector. Logically, they should be full of hostility towards the Huwen Branch, which was not included in the new inspector.
However, the son of the Huwo branch rudder not only lived in the county government for a long time, but also had a good relationship with the county magistrate's young master. More importantly, the county rudder actually withstood the pressure and appointed this ten-year-old child as the director of the Huwo Town Office. It can be said that at this moment, both black and white in Huwo Town have become the territory of the little kid Chen Fei.
Today, when I saw so many carriages full of supplies and hundreds of Ding Zhuang, and these things were used to help Qiu Zheng, I instantly understood how deep the power of Chen Fei was.
It can be said that Huwo Town is completely in the hands of the Shen family! Because anyone with a discerning eye knows that any tax collection will take more than half a year to complete. If you don’t really control the place, you can’t pay the tax in just a few days after you get the collection!
The guards guarded the gate were all local tyrants and geniuses, so they naturally knew that this family that completely controlled a town was more terrifying than the county magistrate who served as officials in another place and had a period of office. So now, their enthusiasm for Chen Fei and his gang was no longer just for the sake of the county magistrate, but directly for the sake of the Shen family controlling Huwo Town.
Why did Shen Haofeng and others have been in the gang for many years? These city gate soldiers under the jurisdiction of the inspection suddenly became hot. Naturally, they were very sensitive to the smell and immediately brought the relationship closer. No matter what, it would be much more convenient to get in and out in the future if they had a good relationship with these city gate soldiers.
The man has love and the concubine has intentions, and the two sides immediately fought fiercely.
When Zhang Junyao came over with a few servants, Shen Haofeng and the others were already as good as the city guards as brothers.
"Brother Zhang!" Chen Fei waved his hand happily. He didn't expect that the green dot was actually Brother Zhang Junyao. It turned out that the blue dot was Brother Zhang, but why did Brother Zhang suddenly turn into a green dot? However, Chen Fei didn't care about such a thing. The more green dots he had, the better.
"Xiaofei! You, have you actually completed the Qiu bidding order?" Zhang Junyao couldn't help but say in surprise when he saw dozens of carriages and hundreds of strong men outside the city gate.
When Shen Haofeng saw Zhang Junyao's appearance, his eyes flashed. When he was with those city guards just now, he knew a piece of news that the people in the city regarded the rebellion of Hedong Village as a joke! Now the county magistrate did not mention the rebellion at all, but was surprised by what Qiu Zheng had done!
Wow! It’s not that I’m too fussy. In fact, these bureaucrats didn’t take the rebellion of the village below seriously? As soon as they had this idea, Shen Haofeng immediately interrupted:
"Haha, Mr. Zhang, Xiao Fei has taken more care of you a few days ago. The Zhanwu School will start tomorrow, and Qiu Zheng is just finished, so we escorted them together. Of course, we also transported some things to the house in the city to store them." Shen Haofeng decided to conceal the rebellion of Hedong Village directly! Because as long as the city does not care about the rebellion in the village, he will save a lot of money! (To be continued.
