I have to say that there is a market for young women in literature and art in any era.

Feng Chuchu is highly sought after in Hangzhou, which is naturally related to her mastery of poetry.

said that this broken bridge Guiji, countless talented people and celebrities sharpened their heads and wanted to squeeze in, just to see the beauty of the Chu Chu girl.

Xu Yan and Mr. Qian are naturally the lucky ones and successfully advanced in thousands of selections.

The collection itself is nothing special, it's nothing more than a poem chant.

It's just that Feng Chuchu deliberately asked Xu Yan a few words about the creative background of 'life is only as first seen'.

What surprised Xu Yan was that Feng Chuchu mentioned to him that unbearable past.

The beginning and end of the poor Xiucai's abandonment made people angry, and Xu Yan suddenly realized, no wonder Feng Chuchu was so empathetic to this poem.

Of course, the protagonist of this elegant collection must be Mr. Qian.

Qian Dehong is obviously a veteran in the Fengyue Field, and he has the title of a famous scholar and a great confucian, so it's not pleasant to have a chat with Miss Chuchu.

However, Xu Yan had no chance to interject except for a few words of poetry at the beginning.

He didn't care. Anyway, this time I came with my teacher, as long as he was happy.

During the feast, Miss Chu Chu even sang a song of Kun dialect, which attracted the applause of the audience.

After the end of the gathering, Xu Yan and Mr. Qian returned to Gushan Academy together, but as soon as they entered the door, someone reported that someone from the governor's yamen had come and asked Xu Yan to go to the house.

Xu Yan knew that Zhu Kun would not take the initiative to summon him without special circumstances, and there must be something wrong with his heart.

He explained the situation to Mr. Qian, and when he got permission, he immediately went to the governor's yamen.

...

...

However, it was said that Xu Yan came to the governor's yamen and was taken all the way to the back ya.

Seeing Shen Mingchen and Zhu Kun sitting together under the locust tree in the courtyard, Xu Yan walked straight forward.

"I've seen Lord Ministry."

Xu Yan arched his hand at Zhu Kun and saluted.

"It's time to sit down."

Zhu Kun nodded at the stone bench next to him and smiled to sign.

Xu Yan then sat down in his robe.

Now Shen Mingchen has been officially hired by Zhu Kun as a guest of honor and moved to live in the governor's yamen.

I haven't seen Xu Yan for a long time, and Shen Mingchen misses it very much.

"Well. Well, I'm afraid I'm going to get into a fight in this game, why don't you try it in time? ”

Xu Yan saw that the game of chess between Zhu Kun and Shen Mingchen had reached the middle game, and it was difficult to distinguish between the killings, so he said in his heart, this is digging a pit for him to jump, right?

"It doesn't have to be. Playing chess to the middle of the game is not reasonable. ”

After a pause, Xu Yan continued: "The Lord of the Ministry called me, but there is something important to discuss?" ”

Xu Yan knows Zhu Kun's character too well.

There is nothing important that Zhu Su will not summon him, let alone play chess.

Although Zhu Su looked relaxed on his face, something important must have happened.

Sure enough, Zhu Kun cleared his throat and said: "The imperial court has already decided on the candidate for the governor of Zhejiang, and he should rush to Hangzhou to take office soon." ”

Xu Yan couldn't help but take a deep breath when he heard this.

He was not mistaken!

Although Emperor Jiajing openly stood in line with Zhu Kun not long ago, he was still a little worried about letting Zhu Kun take sole power.

Didn't the governor of Zhejiang be appointed immediately to divide Zhu Kun's power.

"Dare to ask the Lord of the Ministry, who is this new governor of Zhejiang?"

Because of Xu Yan's relationship, the trend of history has quietly changed, and the appointment and dismissal of some officials will naturally change.

Especially at the level of Zhejiang officialdom, Xu Yan can no longer be inferred based on the existing history alone.

"Dali Shaoqing Yan Maoqing."

As soon as Zhu Yan's words fell, Xu Yan gasped.

Yan Maoqing is too famous.

This person is the number one lackey under Yan Song's sect, and the degree of licking the dog is the same as that of Zhao Wenhua.

The most important thing is that this person is extremely proficient in the art of officialdom and is good at disguising himself. often does something like being a bitch and setting up an archway.,So so far his official reputation should be very good.。

If Xu Yan is not mistaken, Yan Maoqing was a jinshi in Jiajing for 20 years, and at the beginning he first went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to observe politics and became an imperial historian. Later, because he took refuge in Yan Song and recognized Yan Song as his godfather, Yan Maoqing began to prosper in official fortunes.

There is no doubt that Emperor Jiajing's appointment of Yan Maoqing as the governor of Zhejiang must have been the result of Yan Song's strong recommendation.

Like this kind of fat difference, it is impossible for Yan Song to be released to outsiders. After some careful consideration, Yan Song still stretched out his hand to Zhejiang.

"Dare to ask the minister, can the imperial court determine the duties of the governor of Zhejiang?"

It stands to reason that the governor must have been restrained by the governor. However, if the court has a special explanation, it can not be implemented according to the old practice.

"The imperial court ordered Yan Maoqing to inspect the salt affairs mainly."

Zhu Su said lightly.

Sure enough!

Zhejiang has a salt transportation department, which is in charge of sea salt drying and other related matters.

In the Ming Dynasty, salt and iron were firmly held in the hands of the imperial court.

According to the custom, the imperial court will centrally distribute official salt, and if you want to buy salt, you must hold a salt guide.

Of course, there will be people who take risks to sell illicit salt for the sake of profiteering, but this is a felony of killing the head, and if you are caught, it will be a dead end.

Yan Dang stretched out his hand to Yanzheng, and his appetite was really not small.

But there is good news anyway, that is, Yan Maoqing will not get too involved in military affairs.

Now that the southeast has not yet been calmed, in order to completely eliminate the troubles, it is necessary to ensure Zhu Kun's absolute leadership and control over the official army and naval divisions.

From this point of view, as long as Yan Maoqing does not cause chaos, it is acceptable.

"The lord of the ministry may wish to listen to his words first, watch his deeds, and don't be impatient."

Xu Yan gave his own suggestions.

Although Yan Maoqing is a big villain, at least at this stage he has somewhat restrained.

As long as he doesn't act too much, there is no need for Zhu Kun to break the net with him.

After all, Yan Song is now powerful, and it is not a wise move to be tough and tough.

"This official is fearless, but he is afraid of suffering the people."

Zhu Su sighed and said: "The Holy Lord's decree, Zhejiang's taxes have risen again this year. If Yan Maoqing can't fill this hole, he will definitely find something to make up for it in other aspects. ”

Xu Yan couldn't help but be gloomy.

Zhejiang is a prosperous place in the world, but it is precisely because it is too prosperous that Zhejiang's taxation in the Ming generation ranks in the absolute forefront.

The emperor has changed a lot, but Zhejiang's taxes just can't be lowered.

This is good, Zhejiang has raised taxes again.

However, there is one thing to say, Emperor Jiajing's vision of knowing people is indeed very good.

Yan Maoqing has two major advantages.

One of them is to slap the horse, which can be seen from Yan Song's importance to him.

The second is to make money.

Yan Maoqing's ability to make money is definitely in the top five in the Jiajing Dynasty, and even Yan Song himself may not be able to compare.

The tax system of the Ming Dynasty is very deformed, and the tax on business is very low, and it often exceeds its means.

In order to maintain the military spending of the Nine Sides, it is also normal for Emperor Jiajing to raise taxes.

It's just that no one wants taxes to be added to themselves, especially Zhejiang, which has already borne a lot of taxes.
