Chapter 647: Pure Minister

On September 29, Emperor Jiajing appointed Hu Zongxian to be transferred to the governor of Fujian and Jiangxi, and the strong army that swept away the Japanese in the southeast quickly crossed the border of Fujian, Jiangxi and Zhejiang, and the troops entered Jiangxi in three ways.

Linjiang Mansion was in danger, Ji'an Mansion and Yuanzhou Mansion were in danger, Hu Zongxian did not pick and choose the troops under his command this time, and chose the fastest route of march...... After all, Fenyi is at the front of the thief army.

Yu Dayou stationed the right route army in Ji'an Mansion to the north, Qi Jimei, Wu Baipeng, and Wang Daokun marched straight west from Fuzhou Mansion for the middle route army, and Liu Xian led the army to enter Nanchang Mansion from the east of Fuzhou Mansion and copied the back road of the thief army.

On October 6, the thief army went south to attack Ji'an Province, and Yu Dayou set up an ambush to defeat the thief army, and led the army to attack and subdue Xiajiang County, Lin'an Province.

On October 8, Qi Jimei rushed to the outside of Yihuang County, Fuzhou Prefecture, with 3,000 officers and soldiers against 5,000 thieves, Wenzhou Li Chao took the lead in breaking the formation, three quarters of an hour later, the thieves were defeated, more than 1,000 officers and soldiers were beheaded, and the thieves fled west.

On October 10, the thief army marched along the west, first breaking through Xinyu County, and then attacking Fenyi County, Yu Dayou led the army west to threaten the flank of the thief army, the thief army did not dare to divide the troops rashly, and the two armies confronted each other at the border of Linjiang Mansion and Yuanzhou Mansion.

finally stabilized the situation, and the tense atmosphere in Beijing was slightly eased, Yan Song was greatly relieved, if Fenyi County was attacked, he would really have no shame to return home.

In the Hall of Longevity, Emperor Jiajing stared at the carbon furnace, holding a lion cat in his hand, this little guy had a sharp nose, attracted by the tempting fragrance of sweet potatoes, and suddenly got out of Emperor Jiajing's arms.

"Be careful!" Xu Wei bent down and scooped up the lion cat, "I'm not afraid of getting hot!" ”

Emperor Jiajing smiled and said: "It's been three years, and I don't know that Luo and Luo ...... Zhancai."

"Luo Xiaohei." Huang Jin joked: "It is said that I gave birth to another litter, and I became grandmothers." ”

"A few days ago, Ningbo sent account books and tax money to Beijing, and Zhancai also asked the guards to send two of them." Xu Wei said casually: "Zhancai's cousin likes it very much." ”

"By the way, this sweet potato really yields twenty stones per mu?" Huang Jin asked, "...... who went south to investigate?"

"Huang Maoguan, the head of the household department, Hu Yingjia in the affairs of the department, Chen Younian, the head of the household department, Lu Yipeng, the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and several officials of the household department will leave for the south tomorrow." Xu Wei responded: "Tonight, we will set up a banquet in the garden to see them off." ”

"See you off?" Emperor Jiajing scolded with a smile: "Is it possible that you want to bribe one or two?" ”

"How dare you bribe Shao Sinong?" Xu Wei grinned.

Huang Jin reminded: "Chen Younian and Lu Yipeng are both 35-year Jinshi of Jiajing. ”

This sentence is not clear, but Emperor Jiajing understood as soon as he heard it, these two people should be Suiyuan scholars.

"And what about the clerks?"

Xu Wei smiled bitterly: "I don't know if the temple is intentional...... Three months ago, Hu Yingjia's nose bone was about to be broken! ”

"You're ruthless!" Emperor Jiajing snorted, "Could it be that Chengdu let Suiyuan go to check?" Check it out for yourself? ”

Xu Wei shrugged, "Your Majesty also knows about Zhancai, such a big thing...... This guy doesn't dare to talk nonsense. ”

Emperor Jiajing leaned lazily on the couch, took the lion cat handed by Xu Wei and stroked a few handfuls, "By the way, how much does Ningbo pay for Fujian and Jiangxi?" ”

"A single independent account book has been sent to Beijing this time and has been submitted to the Ministry of Households." Xu Wei cautiously tried to pick up a sweet potato, peeled it and tasted it, "From the end of September to the middle of October, the Wang Zhi fleet and the Taizhou Navy Division went south, transporting a total of 8,000 stones of grain and rice, and Wu Weixi, the governor of Fujian, formed a fleet and then exported it to Jiangxi from the Min River. ”

Emperor Jiajing glanced at Xu Wei in surprise, and the latter added with a smile: "Zhancai played a package ticket, and the general Qi Jimei and the general of Southern Jiangxi Yu Dayou, the salaries of the two armies were allocated by the Ningbo Government and then given after the war." ”

"He'll be able to pick bread on the ground!" Jiajing Di Nunu mouthed, "Is it cooked?" ”

"Cooked, cooked." Xu Wei hurriedly picked up two more sweet potatoes and put them on the plate handed by Huang Jin, sweet potatoes will not be uncommon in the future, but now ...... Scarcity is expensive.

Qian Yuan dared to pack tickets, and he also wanted those generals to dare to believe it...... At least among Qi Jimei and Yu Dayoujun, Qian Yuan has this kind of credibility.

And Hu Zongxian's direct subordinates, as well as Jiangxi's deputy commander-in-chief Liu Xian, Qian Yuan's supply of grain and rice is good, and he can really take care of everything, think beautifully!

Emperor Jiajing tasted the sweet potato, praised it a few words, and sighed: "Zhancai is in the southeast...... It's a lot of fun! ”

"He's not done yet." Xu Wei whispered: "Zhancai is ready to make persistent efforts......"

"Huh?"

"He is ready to set up a new sea market in Ninghai County, Taizhou Prefecture."

Emperor Jiajing was silent for a moment, "Tan Lun took over as the governor of Zhejiang, who is the current prefect of Taizhou?" ”

"In the twenty-sixth year of Jiajing, Song Yiwang of Ji'an Prefecture, Jiangxi, sentenced to Yiling Prefecture, and transferred to the prefect of Taizhou."

Qian Yuan really couldn't find any suitable candidate to take over as the prefect of Taizhou, or was recommended by his uncle Qian Zheng, and Qian Yuan really didn't have any impression of the name Song Yiwang.

In fact, in the twenty-sixth year of Jiajing, Song Yiwang was regarded as a number one person, Hui Zheng was quite good, upright and honest, and in the thirty-fourth year of Jiajing, he was the imperial history of the Imperial Procuratorate of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and was demoted out of Beijing because of the impeachment of Yan Song.

The most important thing is that Song Yiwang is a native of Yongfeng County, Ji'an Prefecture, studied under Nie Bao, and is Nie Bao's sworn friend, and belongs to the same family as Qian Zheng, and the two became friends in the early years.

In other words, this is a person that Qian Yuan can trust, so he did not hesitate to write a letter to Yan Shifan in person, and finally got his wish through Wu Peng, the minister.

Emperor Jiajing suddenly spoke, "Go and write a letter, and return to Beijing next year at the latest." ”

"Yes." Xu Wei responded immediately, relieved in his heart, after several days, he finally found an opportunity to lure this sentence out.

Xu Wei had long been keenly aware that Qian Yuan's arrangement in Beijing was by no means only himself, and Liu Hong, the manager of the restaurant, should have other lines in his hands...... For example, this time, Qian Yuan suddenly sent a secret letter to Beijing, asking Xu Wei to find an opportunity to mention in front of Emperor Jiajing that he would enter Beijing next year.

"Your Majesty, Elder Yan Ge asks to see you." Huang Jin reported in a low voice.

Emperor Jiajing waved his hand, the old Yan Song slowly entered the hall with the support of the little eunuch, and Huang Jin personally poured a cup of hot tea and moved a chair.

"Only, taste."

Yan Song tasted the sweet potato after thanking him, and said with a smile: "The minister is old, this sweet potato is a good mouth." ”

"Both young and old can eat, soft and glutinous." Emperor Jiajing turned his head to look at Xu Wei, "Don't think I don't know, Zhancai sent some more to Beijing, how much is sold in the restaurant...... Yellow Companion? ”

Huang Jin pointed to the remaining piece of sweet potato on the plate, "It's so fast, one or two halves of silver!" ”

"Your Majesty knew that there was a way to make money." Yan Song smiled and groaned: "The land of one government is not enough to solve the lack of use in the court, such a handsome talent, but His Majesty personally pulled it out." ”

Looking at Emperor Jiajing's smug expression, Yan Song added: "What the most admirable thing for the old minister is that he is a pure minister, dedicated to the king, dedicated to the country, and selfless......"

"Okay, okay, he's selfless...... You ask Wen Chang, see if he believes it or not? Emperor Jiajing couldn't cry or laugh, "But in the middle, there is something to say directly." ”

Emperor Jiajing knew in his heart that where there were pure ministers in this world, if there were pure ministers, there would be no celebrant eunuchs.

Yan Song calmed down and took two breaths, the temperature in the capital has dropped sharply in the past two days, and he is about to start staying up in winter again, but he has to come today.

"Old minister, please rebuild the "Chronicles of the Rising Capital".

Huang Jin stepped forward to take the fold presented by Yan Song's hands, Emperor Jiajing opened it and looked at it a few times, and immediately locked on a name that he had not heard in previous years, but had heard it many times this year.

Jiajing twenty-six years of Jinshi, Hanlin attendant, right Chunfang, right Yude and Guozijian Siye, Zhang Juzheng, cabinet deputy assistant Xu Jie's east bed fast son-in-law.
