"Ha, Xue Xiyang even took the county test and the government test? Yue Zhongmian and Huang Huai, the magistrates of Jiangning, did not deliberately miss the topic, let alone favor Xue Xiyang to the extent that he was not the head of the case, which shows that he really studied very hard to be able to win two cases in a row. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" Yun Xi said happily.

Xue Xiyang is Xiyao's younger brother, he is brilliant, and Xiyao's face is also bright; Xiyao has brilliance on her face, and Yunxi also has brilliance on her face; Besides, Yun Xi still trusts the Xue family very much. So he was happy.

"Your Majesty, it can be seen that Xue Xiyang is smart and good at reading." Yang Zirong also said jokingly.

"There is also your credit, if you hadn't taught him, he might not have been able to pass the two case heads." Yun Xi smiled.

"When is the Zhili Academy Examination set by the Ministry of Rites this year?" Yun Xi asked again.

"Your Majesty, this year is the year of the examination, and the capital is going to hold the examination, so there is no hospital examination in Zhili. The next hospital exam will not be until March next year. Wang Gen said.

"That's it. I still want to look at Xue Xiyang and the middle and middle school three yuan, but I didn't expect to wait until the beginning of next year. Yun Xi was a little regretful.

As a few people were talking, Pu Yu, the person who was the commander of the guards here, suddenly walked in and said, "Your Majesty, there is Suzhou Mansion in front, but you can be lucky in Suzhou?" ”

Yun Xi said: "Of course, you have to be lucky in Suzhou. As the saying goes, there is heaven above, and there is Suzhou and Hangzhou below, and I want to see how prosperous this Suzhou Mansion is. ”

In fact, the current Suzhou Mansion is far less prosperous than the capital, that is, the scenery left by the previous dynasty is better. Pu Yu thought in his heart. He once followed his father to prepare for the Japanese in the Songchang Su area, although it was seven or eight years ago, but at that time Suzhou was not as good as the capital, and now the capital is becoming more and more prosperous, even if Suzhou has also developed, how can it catch up with the capital?

However, he didn't need to say anything to discourage Yunxi's happiness, so he agreed and retreated.

Yun Xi then talked about Suzhou with the people next to him. He said: "I traveled all the way east from the capital, Yingtianfu and Zhenjiang Mansion were both returned to the hometown of the first emperor during the Yuan to Zheng period, but Suzhou was different, Suzhou was the capital under the jurisdiction of Zhang Shicheng, and it was not until the emperor's grandfather called the queen that he recovered here; And because Zhang Shicheng refused to surrender, the last battle in Suzhou was extremely tragic, and the people in the city were seven out of ten, and the local people's resentment against the government has not been completely eliminated to this day. ”

Yoon-hee asked such a question. This is very important, Jiangsu and Zhejiang are now important places of finance and taxation, and fifty percent of the country's taxes come from these prefectures, which is still the data after Yunxi set up the city department, and the data was as high as sixty percent before. If the people here have been dissatisfied with the imperial court, it will not be a good thing for the Ming Dynasty.

And this is not only a problem of one government in Suzhou, but also a problem of several provinces in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the problem is very serious.

Several people around him looked at each other. They are not particularly pedantic people, they know that moral preaching is useless, if they want to harvest the hearts of this generation, it is very easy, just reduce the agricultural tax, and the locals must be grateful to Dade, even if there are a few people who miss Zhang Shicheng, it will be no problem if these people who miss Zhang Shicheng are dead in a few years.

But they knew that Yun Xi would never agree to lower the agricultural tax. This issue was debated with the people around him when he first succeeded to the throne, and although none of them were parties, they also knew about the debate.

With their limited knowledge, they couldn't think of any other way, so they could only look at each other and be silent.

Seeing that they didn't speak, Yun Xi thought that there was nothing they could do, and said, "Let's take a look in Suzhou first." ”

……

……

When it was almost dark, the car came to the gate of Suzhou City. The officials of Suzhou Prefecture, headed by the prefect Xiang Bao, knelt outside the door and said: "The minister Suzhou prefect Xiang Bao / Tongzhi Zuo Guibao / Wu County Governor Bai Wenxuan / Changzhou Governor Mu Tianyan ,......, have seen Your Majesty." ”

Yun Xi said: "You Aiqing are exempt from courtesy. ”

When they got up, Yun Xi said: "I have a long journey today, so I won't meet all the Aiqing of Suzhou Mansion first, and I will meet you again tomorrow at noon." ”

Yun Xi said a few more words to the prefect Xiang Bao, and the car restarted and drove into the city of Suzhou, until it reached the door of a very gorgeous mansion. Yun Xi got out of the car and got on the horse, and slowly stomped into the house.

This mansion was originally built by Zhang Shicheng when he was in Suzhou, although it was destroyed in the war, it is still the most majestic house in Suzhou, and Zhu Yuanzhang lived here when he was lucky enough to stay in Suzhou. A few days ago, the Suzhou government urgently repaired some dilapidated courtyards for Yunxi to move in.

In fact, although the famous Humble Administrator's Garden and Lingering Garden have not yet been built in Suzhou at this time, the Lion Forest has already been built; The scenery of the Lion Forest is much better than that of the Yuan Cheng Palace, and Yunxi can completely stay in the Lion Forest.

But the Lion Forest is owned by the Buddhist temple at this time, and Yun Xi does not want to appear to be biased towards either side of the Buddhist path, so he can only stay in the Yuan Cheng Palace.

After the placement was completed, Yun Xi asked the eunuchs and palace maids to clean up the bedroom again, and let Yun Zhi and a few other princesses play by themselves, and then asked Wang Xi to bring the resumes of the current magistrates in Jiangsu and Zhejiang and look at their resumes carefully.

'Xiang Bao is a native of Jinxian County, Jinshi, Hong Wuzhong was promoted by the emperor's grandfather to be a member of the military department, nine years without fault, promoted to the political envoy, resigned, and changed to Tianfu Yin. Later, he was reappointed as the prefect of Suzhou. ’

'Judging from the resume, he is very honest and upright, especially for nine years, Nima is very terrifying, and there may not be one of the 10,000 officials in the Hongwu period who can be without fault for nine years, and Qi Tai is at the same level. ’

'Grandpa Huang probably wanted to use Xiang Bao's integrity and honesty to deal with the treacherous people of Suzhou Mansion. However, it didn't seem to work. ’

'Tongzhi Zuo Guibao, a native of Huguang, has been going around in the place, there is nothing eye-catching, and there is nothing too bad. ’

'Bai Wenxuan, the magistrate of Wu County, a native of Bashu, was born in Guozijian, and it has only been two years since he was elected as the magistrate of Wu County, and he can't see anything from his resume. ’

'It's the same with this Changzhou magistrate, who was born in Guozijian, was elected as the governor of Changzhou County five years ago, and was promoted to the magistrate of Changzhou two years ago, so I can't see anything at all. But his name is very distinctive, Mu Tianyan, this name is a very big sycophant, I remember it at a glance. But other than that, I don't know what he was like. ’

Yun Xi thought for a while, and said to Wang Xi: "Send someone back to Beijing immediately, and bring one of the people who have been in the Guozijian for a long time." ”

"Also," Yun Xi continued: "Send someone to the file of the household department to check whether this person named Mu Tianyan has changed his name." ”
