Jiajing is a staunch conspiracy theorist, and he never believes that anyone will not be greedy, honest, and honest, and dedicated to the country. Therefore, in his case, corruption is not a thing, in his words: one or two silver, four coins for greed for ink, twelve coins for the court, I admit it, six dollars for greed for ink, ten dollars for the court, I also admit it!

In the eyes of Emperor Daojun, there is no official and no one is not greedy, as long as he is not too greedy, he can bear it, if you are not greedy, he will be suspicious, a person who doesn't even love money, what will he love, it is worth imagining......

Tang Yi's plan is exhaustive and flawless, Jiajing can't see from it that he has left a little room for himself to make money, normal people will only praise Tang Yi for his selflessness, in the eyes of fucked Jiajing, you kid has a problem!

Tang Yi is wronged, to be honest, he is not Lei Feng, how can he not leave the fattest meat for himself, but his plan can't be told to anyone at all.

But now that Jiajing asked, if Tang Yi was full of big words, let alone that Jiajing didn't believe it, even he didn't believe it.

That's it!

Tang Yi gritted his teeth, and said in his heart that if he entered the circle of right and wrong, don't be dirty, just take the initiative to get a little dirty water, so that the "strange dragon" in front of him can rest assured.

"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, please punish Your Majesty."

Jiajing was noncommittal, and said lightly: "Tang Yi, what are your crimes, tell me yourself." ”

"Yes." Tang Yi paused and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is selfish, and the minister has left a big piece of fat for himself. Tang Yi said and peeked at Jiajing, only to see Jiajing looking at him with a smile.

"Stinky boy, you know that you have a heart, tell Master how much benefit you have left for yourself, and let Master see how big your appetite is."

just returned to the monarch and the minister, and in the blink of an eye, he became a master and apprentice. Tang Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't dare to be careless, and if he didn't dispel Jiajing's suspicions, he wouldn't think about passing.

Tang Yi stood up, took the drawings over, and put them in front of Jiajing. He pointed around the Temple of Heaven.

"Teacher, please see, this is close to Zhengyangmen Street, the transportation is convenient, the business is prosperous, and the disciple left two or twenty shops here for Huang Gonggong." Tang Yi said timidly, like a child who had been caught doing bad things, and lowered his head. The little face is flushed.

Jiajing looked at it, and suddenly laughed, "Silly boy, twenty shops are only forty or fifty thousand silver, Huang Jin is a person close to me, and he is worth so much money?" ”

"Oh, my emperor!" Huang Jin fell to his knees and slapped his mouth. Crying bitterly: "It's all because the slave is greedy, the slave thinks that there is a shop room." Even if the slave and maid serve the master and are kicked out of the palace, they can live by collecting rent. The slave has committed a great crime, and I beg the emperor to punish her! ”

Jiajing looked at Huang Jin's crying appearance, but laughed instead.

"I've been with me for so long, am I a mean monarch?"

Huang Jin hurriedly kowtowed, "The emperor is benevolent and generous. The blessings that slaves and maids have cultivated for eight lifetimes can serve the emperor. ”

"Don't kowtow, you recommend Tang Yi meritorious, is there less than twenty shops, Tang Yi. Can you leave a little more for Huang Jin? ”

Tang Yi knelt and climbed half a step, and said solemnly to Jiajing: "Master is above, please allow the disciple to say a few words from the bottom of your heart." The outer city project is huge, almost rebuilding a Beijing division, hundreds of thousands of households, millions of silver taels, thousands of things, intricate. If you want to avoid all diseases, you can only be open and transparent. If you want to achieve these four words, you can't have any personal teaching and receiving, cronyism. The plan is designed by the disciples, and the disciples must avoid suspicion. Master Fang Cai asked the disciples why they gave the construction and supervision to others. In fact, the disciple thought that Xu Ge was an honest and thoughtful official, and he was the best candidate, but Xu Ge was his father's teacher, and if he was allowed to do this, he would be sick if he was not sick. The same Gonggong Huang brought his disciples, and if he was asked to supervise the work, he would also leave a truth. In order to repair the outer city as soon as possible, the disciple had no choice but to pretend to be a black-faced Bao Gong and show no mercy. ”

Jiajing didn't speak, but picked up Tang Yi's report, and carefully read it, carefully scrutinizing every place, thinking about it repeatedly, and finally Jiajing had to admit that Tang Yi's plan blocked all the big drawbacks.

Of course, he also left some small doors, so that the people below can get some soup and water, which will not affect the progress of the project on the whole, and even be profitable, and can also make the people under him work harder.

"Master, the disciple thinks that you can't do things with all your might, but should take a long-term view. For example, if there is a sum of money to repair the city, if everyone wants to take two bites from top to bottom, I am afraid that there will not even be half of it left, so that nothing can be accomplished. If you control the upper and lower levels, let all the silver be implemented, and build the city with one million taels of silver, I am afraid that you will be able to produce two million or three million benefits, and then divide it and get more. For example, the outer city, as long as it is repaired as soon as possible, the large wasteland that comes in will quickly appreciate in value and become a fragrant dumpling that everyone is vying for. ”

These words can be said to Jiajing's heart, he smiled, and he thought it was true.

"Well said! It's just that not many people can understand it as well as you think. ”

Jiajing patted Tang Yi on the shoulder, returned to the cloud bed, and looked at the Wanshou Palace meaningfully.

It has been a few months since the earthquake, and Jiajing was forced to suspend the construction of the palace and use all the silver to help the people, pay the salaries of the northern and southern armies, and rebuild the embankment of the Yellow River.

At that time, there was nothing, and after such a long time, Jiajing was still living in the low and simple Wanshou Palace, and his heart became more and more tasteful, and he became more and more disappointed in his trusted minister.

Jiajing knows that there are generally two kinds of courtiers, one is the Qingliu represented by Li Mo, Xu Jie and others, who hold the teachings of the saints and the family law of the ancestors, and pick their noses and eyes at the monarch's father, pointing irresponsible remarks, and hating them to the extreme.

As for the other faction, it is Yan Song's father and son and others, they don't want to be famous or pretend to be garlic, but these people are greedy, too greedy! If this were not the case, how could the city wall that had just been built fall down, and how could a mere Yuxi Palace not be repaired for a long time?

As the saying goes, there is no gap without comparison, Tang Yi is not as fake and high as Qingliu, but he is not as insatiable as Yan Dang.

He has the overall situation in mind, can know the severity, and is more capable, which is more appreciated by Jiajing than the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.

If this kid can take charge of the cabinet and manage his finances for himself, I am afraid that he will never have to worry about not having enough money, and he can rest assured that he can boldly cultivate an immortal.

Jiajing smiled bitterly and shook his head, where is there a person who can be the first assistant in less than twenty, but I am afraid that it may not be necessary to wait for another twenty years. But one thing Jiajing is sure of, he can't wait for Tang Yi to enter the officialdom and needs him to do things for himself.

Thinking of this, Jiajing suddenly said: "Tang Yi listens to the seal!" ”

Tang Yi was dumbfounded all of a sudden, it is a good thing to be crowned an official, but there is still more than a month to take the test, how good it is to get fame and fame, with his own ability, it is not that he can't pass the exam, and now he is confused and given an official, how can he say it in the future!

Just when Tang Yi was late, Jiajing's face sank, and Tang Yi quickly knelt down in fright.

"Well, I have crowned you as the prime minister of the Imperial History of the Right Command, and you will be given a unicorn suit."

is generous enough, Dad just got a flying fish suit, which is two levels worse than himself, wait for the next time we meet, see how he is sassy. Tang Yi thought happily, and when he thought about it, he couldn't be happy again.

The right Yushi is a Zheng'er Eight Classics and Four Rank Officials, and he has to wear a big red robe, even if he is the first to enter the officialdom, it is only from the sixth grade.

Killing and killing with sticks, almost the same, Tang Yi didn't want to be a thorn in the side of thousands of people.

He fell on his knees and clubbed the ground with his head.

"Teacher, the disciple has been punished in vain, I implore the master to take back his fate!"

"Nope." Jiajing stubbornly said: "Not being jealous is a mediocre talent, you are my student, I am the lord of the world, I believe in you, use you, who dares to say a word more, I will not be spared!" ”

Jiajing's tone was unquestionable, Tang Yi's head buzzed, he couldn't help but think of a person, that is the famous first assistant Zhang Xuan, in fact, in terms of quality, it is difficult to say who is right and who is wrong, the reason why Zhang Xuan is notorious is largely because he relied on the Great Rites Discussion, and it took six years to become the first assistant from a small top three-class jinshi, and every time he was promoted, Jiajing bypassed hundreds of officials, bypassed the court push, and the special purpose was overpromoted, and the court rules were completely destroyed.

As a result, Zhang Xuan became an outlier in the officialdom and a lucky villain in the eyes of hundreds of officials. Once you are labeled with this label, you lose the moral high ground, and you don't have to think about any ideals and ambitions.

Others are afraid that there will be fewer saints and the official promotion will be slow, but Tang Yi is now the whole opposite.

He said bitterly: "The imperial history of the capital is an important member of the four grades, and it needs to be recommended by the court of hundreds of officials, and it must not be ruined by the imperial court's plan to elect officials because of the students alone." ”

"Hmm!" Jiajing's face was cloudy, and he said angrily: "Since you don't want to be the imperial historian, I will give you the position of Shuntian Patrol, you will not refuse, right?" ”

Tang Yi knew that this was already Jiajing's limit, and he couldn't help but know how to lift up, so he hurriedly thanked the emperor.

"Master, the disciple still wants to ask for advice, should you let the disciple take office immediately, or wait for the end of the hall examination?"

Jiajing frowned, and sneered: "What do you think?" ”

"Not good!"

Tang Yi shook his head decisively, "The disciple is the apprentice of the Ming Emperor, how can he be worse than others, the disciple has to defeat the opponent in the examination room and win glory for the teacher." ”

"Hmph, that's a nice thing to say, isn't it just that I'm afraid that others will chew their tongues, don't you forget, the outer city is still bare, and my inner money can run rats, do you dare to delay it for a month?"

"The teacher is above, the disciple thinks that the matter is slow and round, such a huge project, the design and intention of the imperial court must be made public, so that hundreds of officials can test, especially the science and Taoism officials, whether the project can be carried out smoothly depends on their supervision and control, sharpening the knife and not cutting wood, don't you say?" Tang Yi said with a hippie smile, but Jiajing ate his set.

"I will follow you, and immediately let people send the plan to six parts, but you kid also remember, I don't want to reward your fame, I will take the test today, if you don't get a good name in the test, don't look for me to cry!"

Tang Yi patted his chest and said, "Please rest assured, the disciple dares to make a military order, and he will never embarrass you." (To be continued.) )
