After an autumn rain and a cold, Tang Yi received a Sichuan silk cotton robe, opened it and almost burst into laughter. The dried branches and plums on the collar cuffs are like willows, brushing together, drooping their heads, without any spirit, and embroidered with mandarin ducks flying with wings before and after, but how do you look like a big fat duck.

This can still be endured, and when I put it on my body, I noticed that one sleeve was long and the other was short.

Tang Yi cried, "Daughter-in-law, this is for me to have a cerebral thrombosis!" ”

The only thing commendable about this robe is that it is thick enough, warm enough, and draped on the body, as if you can see Wang Yueying's delicate appearance frowning under the lamp, staring, and trying her best.

I really miss Xiao Nizi, I think about it for several months in Hangzhou, people say that Xiao Biesheng is newly married, and it is time to bring his daughter-in-law and experience the feeling of being newly married.

In the past, it was an errand, Tang Yi was inconvenient to bring his family, just yesterday, the imperial court finally made a decree, because of the merit of recruiting Xu Hai, Tang Yi was crowned as the prefect of Hangzhou.

Attention!

Hangzhou is a high-class symbol, and the prefect is a high-level match, which means that Tang Yi has also entered the ranks of red-robed officials.

However, this big red robe was not easy to obtain, and when Jiajing sent Tang Yi a holy decree, he also set a military order.

Jiajing asked Jiajing for 36 years, the tax and silver of the city department should be increased to 2 million taels, and next year it should be increased to 4 million taels, to complete the task, not to say, the red robe is added, if the task is not completed, go home and coax the child.

Jiajing's tone was so resolute that he simply didn't give Tang Yi room to maneuver, and if he wanted to keep his future, he had to accept the unequal treaty.

Tang Yi couldn't figure it out, why did Jiajing suddenly have convulsions and die if he wanted silver?

After inquiring, I finally figured out the situation. It turned out that the three major halls of Fengtian, Huagai, and Jinshen, which had just been built, caught fire again and burned to ruins.

Zhejiang, Shandong suffered a disaster this year, and the imperial court had to exempt the two provinces from taxes, but Shandong is good to say that Zhejiang not only bears one-tenth of the world's tax burden. There are also two million stone grains, as well as the expenses of hundreds of thousands of troops. When Zhejiang was hit by the disaster, not only was the tax gone, but it also had to be reversed, and grain and military supplies were transferred from various provinces to fill the shortfall, and the imperial court's annual income was reduced by more than one million taels inside and out.

A few days ago, Tang Yi saw the Di newspaper, which said that Jiajing had made an order. Ask the coastal provinces to offer pearls.

No need to ask, it must be the idea of those Taoist priests, cultivation is a big thing to burn silver.

Spending more, earning less, Jiajing is very short of money.

Thinking about it, the land tax cannot be increased, and the commercial tax cannot be collected. Jiajing once sent a mine supervisor to Henan to open more mines. After the mine supervisor went down, the local people fought back and fled back to the capital.

Jiajing was almost half angry, but he was extremely strong. In the face of the local gentry group, it is also in vain. Thinking about it, there is only one place, and that is the city to make money.

As soon as he thought of the city, Jiajing thought more and more about Tang Yi.

Since the beginning of the year, the sea has been successful. In addition to offering one million taels for the first time, Tang Yi then offered 200,000 taels of tax silver one after another.

Jiajing counted with his fingers, Quanzhou alone can get more than one million taels a year, and if Ningbo is handed over to Tang Yi, won't there be more than two million taels!

Jiajing is also confused, the city ship division is not farming, adding a city port division, may not be able to double the income, otherwise, the coastal cities are set up city ship divisions, Daming is not useful money?

The truth in this doesn't make sense with Jiajing, he only asks for one thing, as for the troubles, that's the following thing, his old man is so uncannibalistic.

To be honest, Tang Yi really wanted to refuse, but as soon as he saw the red official uniform, he felt that his blood was boiling, and the husband couldn't be without power for a day!

Although he is young, he has stepped into the ranks of senior bureaucrats, and he is a little eye-catching, but he is eye-catching, and Lao Tzu can't wronged himself because of other people's perceptions.

Besides, the same prefect, the prefect of Hangzhou is too attractive compared to Ningbo and Quanzhou.

Hangzhou is near the sea, and it is the starting point of the Grand Canal, with a prosperous economy, plus black households, and a population of one million, which is more than Suzhou. If Hangzhou can be governed well, there will be no problem in dealing with the provinces in the interior, and it can also be used as a base camp in the future.

After thinking about it, the gift package given by Jiajing had to be swallowed no matter what. However, Tang Yi is not a fuel-efficient lamp, he wrote a book of 10,000 words to Jiajing.

It is proposed that if he wants to complete the task, he must be given full autonomy, not only in Hangzhou, Ningbo, and even Quanzhou and Guangzhou, but also in Songjiang, all of which must be changed.

Moreover, Tang Yi also asked Jiajing for the right to appoint and dismiss officials below the seventh rank, as well as the power to set up new institutions and hire more scribes at any time, and also required the city department to operate completely independently, not subject to the control of the governor and governor......

There are all kinds of conditions, no less than ten conditions, Tang Yi didn't expect Jiajing to pass completely, he was originally asking for a price to pay back.

As long as Hangzhou City can be completely handed over to him, Tang Yi will be satisfied.

His 10,000-word book has not yet been approved by Jiajing, but one thing is clear, Tang Yi is already the most red-robed official in the history of the Ming Dynasty, and the prefect of the provincial capital before the year, and he also broke the record of the fastest promotion speed held by his father.

Jumping up so fast, countless people are envious, jealous and hateful, even if Wenqu Xing descends to earth, he doesn't play like this!

In order to avoid everyone's vicious gaze, Tang Yi chose to be low-key, low-key, and low-key, all large-scale activities, push if you can, hide if you can, wait until the limelight in the past, everyone is used to it, and it is not too late to come out again.

Just because of his low profile, he missed a good show......

On October 15, Xu Hai officially surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, and on that day Xu Hai led tens of thousands of subordinates, bright armor and well-equipped, and rushed to the city of Hangzhou with swords.

Xu Hai shouted even louder: "I'm Xu Mingshan, come and ask for a surrender, open the city gate quickly!" ”

Looking at his posture, where is the surrender, it is simply to attack the city, forcing the civil and military forces in the city to open the city gate. The arrogance is simply to the point of no return.

In stark contrast to him, the civil and military forces in the city were so frightened that they changed their faces, especially the patrol of the imperial history Wang Bengu, which was even more unbearable. Hearing that Xu Hai came with troops and learned the lesson of the last time, Wang Bengu immediately ordered the city gate to be closed, and he went to the city to inspect it, as if he was facing a great enemy.

Not long after, Hu Zongxian also arrived, he looked down at the city, and immediately frowned, Xu Hai's posture, where is the surrender, it is clearly a civil and military demonstration to Hangzhou. is really a stubborn bandit, Hu Zongxian was furious, he knew in his heart that the surrender of Xu Hai was a matter reported to the imperial court, and His Majesty had made a will, if it was done badly, it would be Jiajing's people.

Hu Zongxian smiled coldly, "Come on, go out of the city with this official." ”

Wang Bengu hurriedly stopped, "Lord Hu, the Xu bandit is extremely vicious, very hateful, as the commander of the southeast, how can you easily risk yourself?" If there is a mistake, who can be responsible? ”

Wang Bengu did not care about Hu Zongxian, but was worried about bearing the charge of falling into the governor's seat. Hu Zongxian laughed, "Please rest assured, Lord Wang, everything is under the control of this official." ”

With only two entourage, Hu Zongxian opened the city gate, and when he went outside, he looked forward to it, and the thousands of troops and horses in front of him were like mustard.

Xu Hai felt an unprecedented power, before this, he had never been afraid of anyone, including Wang Zhi, but at this moment, in front of this person, he completely succumbed. He stepped forward, involuntarily bent his knees, and saluted the opponent who had been so close to him, and he threw in the towel, convinced.

In the next second, Hu Zongxian made a move that was enough to make everyone's jaws drop, he stretched out his hand and pressed it on Xu Hai's scalp.

What's even more excessive is to keep patting, and while patting back, he said:

"You have led the invasion of the Japanese and brought disaster to the country for many years, and since you have returned to obedience today, you should keep to yourself in the future, and do not be evil again."

That's the leader of the Japanese who has been spanning more than ten years, isn't it a cat or a dog, you treat him like this, aren't you afraid that he will bite you back?

But what is unexpected is that Xu Hai is grateful, and wept bitterly: "The crimes committed by the sinners are too many to write, and now they are in obedience to the imperial court, they should be single-minded, and there is no ambition. ”

……

In everyone's exclamations, Hu Zongxian successfully subdued Xu Hai, at that moment, he was the focus of attention, if the Ming Dynasty also had a camera, Hu Zongxian would definitely be blinded by the spotlight.

"Brave and brave, really brave!"

Xu Wei, who ran back to Shaoxing to see his wife a few days ago, rushed to Hangzhou, witnessed the scene with his own eyes, and ran to Tang Yi, dancing and talking.

"Brother Wen, everyone says that Gentle Township is a hero's mound, and I think it's similar in the family, your level has dropped too fast. Xu Hai was obviously at the end of his rope, and the more he treated him, the more he felt that he was a character, and the more unwilling he was. On the contrary, you don't take him seriously, trample on him, step on him, but make him feel that you are sincere. ”

Xu Wei opened his mouth wide, hesitated for a long time, and then patted his head, and said in regret: "Alas, my head really doesn't work!" Xu Wei walked around anxiously on the ground, came to Tang Yi, and said with a big face: "Okay, my brother has decided to write to the officials again, take three more months of leave, my brother wants to stay by your side, restore your strength, and protect your safety by the way, how about it?" ”

"Not good!"

Tang Yi glanced at Xu Wei's big belly where he had nowhere to put it, with this body, who protected whom was not necessarily!

"Brother Wen, don't you just want to eat and drink for nothing?" ‘

Xu Wei stalked his neck, broke the jar and said, "It's just to eat you, why can't you drop it?" ”

"Yes, of course!" Tang Yi suddenly smiled and said, "Senior Brother Wen, I will now hire you as the director of academic affairs as the prefect of Hangzhou and the promotion of the city's director." Here's your offer of appointment! ”

Tang Yi said, stuffed a document into Xu Wei's arms, Xu Wei's face was gloomy, and said, "You fill in the title first." ”

"Look at who I'm writing about?"

Xu Wei looked at it, and his name was written, he pointed at Tang Yi with his finger, his fingers trembled, "You have long been holding back!" After signing his name, Xu Wei hugged his arms and said, "Let's talk about it, how are you going to be the prefect?" (To be continued.) )
