The most reckless man in the Ming Dynasty.

Chapter 158 Tang Hao has deep meaning! Your Excellency is such a powerful official!
Qianqing Palace.

The little emperor returned to his palace, and the angry look on his face immediately disappeared.

He leisurely picked up the "Emperor's Illustrations" written by the savage Tang Hao and read it with great interest.

I don't know how long it took, but Chen Kuan walked in and reported in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Han Wen, the Minister of Household Affairs, the Yushi of Youdu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Vice-President Xiantu have already set off!"

Tu Yu?

Zhu Houzhao raised his eyebrows when he heard the name.

Chen Kuan was well prepared and handed Tu Yu's resume to the young emperor respectfully.

"This Tu Feng has nothing to do with Tu Xun."

"Tu Jian is a native of Bianjing. He was a Jinshi in the second year of Chenghua. He was awarded the title of Supervisor and Censor in the seventh year of Chenghua. He has a background as an official."

"In the tenth year of Chenghua, Tu Jian patrolled Sichuan and reformed ten old evils. In the seventeenth year of Chenghua, he was promoted to the censor of the capital procuratorate. In the twenty-first year of Chenghua, he was promoted to the censor of the capital Youdu. Because of malicious criticism by others, He was slandered, so he took charge of the affairs of the Nanjing Academy. Later, the Champa Kingdom was invaded by Annan, and Tu Fu was ordered to mediate on-the-spot investigation and move to Annan to avoid war. "

From the Hanlin Academy to the Zhanshi Mansion in the East Palace, and then from the Zhanshi Mansion to the Cabinet, until he joined the cabinet to participate in military affairs, and then succeeded as the Chief Assistant to take charge of the cabinet for the emperor!
In other words, Yang Tinghe came to the cabinet for the chief minister.

"This time, the Marquis of Zhongshan took action on Changlu Yunsi. The imperial court could not only take the opportunity to cleanse out these corrupt officials, but also take advantage of the situation to reform the Yunsi system to ensure that the old system of paying grain and opening up the country can be smoothly implemented and no more new batches of people will be created. A man who is greedy for ink can also write some Korean scripts for the Minister of Household Affairs, so he can accomplish multiple things with one stone!"

Having said this, Zhu Houzhao's eyes turned red.

Hearing this, Chen Kuan also smiled.

The chief assistant of the cabinet is Liu Jian, a bachelor of Wuyingdian, Xie Qian, a bachelor of Dongge, and Li Dongyang, a bachelor of Wenyuange.

"It's better now. The savages put the knife directly on their necks. I just want to see how these dogs can object!"

Originally, this process should have taken place three years later, after Liu Jian became official!
But for some inexplicable reason, Yang Tinghe suddenly joined the cabinet now, which caught people off guard!
What Li Dongyang is really angry about is that these three years are enough for Yang Tinghe to gain a firm foothold in the cabinet.

"Okay, okay, if you don't know how to praise others, don't praise them forcefully. I hear that you deserve it!"

After all, Liu Jian was an official and the tutor of his father, Emperor Hongzhi. The tutor of his Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao was Yang Tinghe. When it came to close relationships, Zhu Houzhao naturally preferred "one of his own" to be in charge of the cabinet, and Yang Tinghe was undoubtedly the most popular. Good candidate.

"Hahaha……"

But when he thought of the words of the savage Tang Hao, the little emperor had to start taking a serious look at his imperial master.

"In the first year of Hongzhi, Tu Fu was ordered to be the governor of the military affairs of Guangdong and Guangxi, and also patrolled the area. He oversaw the rebellion of the Yao people and killed hundreds of them. He was later called to take charge of the affairs of the court, but he returned home begging for illness. Soon after, he was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, but his My parents were old and seriously ill and died of illness one after another. They were kept in mourning until last year when His Majesty ascended the throne and was appointed as the Crown Prince Tutor and the Censor of Youdu, and the Governor of Datong Xuanfu."

"The Savage seems to be a reckless man who kills people without blinking an eye, but in fact he has always been rough and subtle. Don't I know him well?"

"Look at the picture he drew, I can't even imagine how much effort he had to put into it to make it so realistic, and every page is equipped with illustrations, and every story has a corresponding character... "

Since the eleventh year of Hongzhi, when Xu Pu, the former chief minister of the cabinet, took office, there have been only three bachelors in the cabinet.

But now, this situation has been broken.

Looking at Li Dongyang's leaving figure, Liu Jian's eyes flashed.

While Chen Kuan was explaining, Zhu Houzhao was also watching carefully.

After the old chief minister Liu Jian heard the news, he didn't say much and drafted the edict himself. The cabinet ministers looked at each other in confusion. Xie Qian, the bachelor of Dongge, and Li Dongyang, the bachelor of Wenyuange, both looked ugly.

Who wouldn’t be moved after seeing this scene?
Compared with those civil servants and gentry who only knew how to talk and shout slogans, Tang Hao, a savage man, suddenly used this big killer weapon, and after seeing it, the little emperor couldn't put it down. How could he not be moved?
In addition, because of this "Emperor's Illustrations", Yang Tinghe, the young emperor's imperial mentor, was recognized by Liu Jian, the chief minister of the cabinet, and was able to enter the cabinet. His official career took a big step forward, which was also a great thing for Zhu Houzhao. .

"Da Jue, I have drafted a decree to worship Master Yang as the Young Master and the Crown Prince Tutor, the Grand Bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion, and join the cabinet to assist in government affairs and participate in aircraft maintenance!"

"Mu Zhai, if you can, then you and I will become official together!"

"I understand what the savages mean very well!"

He was born as an official in Kedao, led troops in battles, and also served as the censor of Zuodu and in charge of the court affairs, and even served as the minister of the Ministry of Personnel. Therefore, in terms of qualifications, political achievements, and prestige, Tu Jun was enough to suppress those officials of the Transportation Department. .

Hearing Chen Kuan praise Tang Hao so much, the little emperor couldn't help but laugh loudly.

Upon hearing this, Chen Kuan immediately accepted the order and left. Naturally, the order this time had to be issued through the cabinet.

At first, Zhu Houzhao didn't pay much attention to Yang Tinghe, the imperial master.

"Previously during the imperial ceremony, these officials and gentry dared to jump up and object, and the opposition voices from both the government and the public were very loud!"

Moreover, the person who entered the cabinet was Yang Tinghe, and like Li Dongyang, he was also a bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion!
what is this?
Are you trying to be disgusting on purpose?
Do all bachelor's degrees have the same title?

Therefore, even if Liu Jian becomes official three years later, with the young emperor's disgust towards him, Li Dongyang, the person who will succeed him as the chief minister of the cabinet will be either Xie Qian or Yang Tinghe, who has absolutely nothing to do with him, Li Dongyang!

I can't help it, I'm so touched.

Hearing this, Xie Qian was startled, then nodded with a wry smile.

This Yang Tinghe is the pawn that the little emperor installed in the cabinet to compete for Li Dongyang's power and position!
For a moment, Li Dongyang looked very ugly, but he could not have an attack. He could only use physical discomfort as an excuse to go home early to recuperate.

"This Tu Yu is actually an official."

Especially Li Dongyang, the bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion, clenched his fists unconsciously.

"The reason why he got off the ship in Tianjin and went directly to the Changlu Saltworks was to open up the abscess and cooperate with the Ministry of Household Affairs to restore the old system of paying grains."

"The Marquis of Zhongshan has always been mature and prudent in his actions. He makes decisions before taking action. He is truly a minister who assists the country!"

Imagine a burly man from Rushan, sitting at his desk at night, scratching his head and drawing illustrations with a brush in his hand, all just so that he, Zhu Houzhao, can pay attention to his studies, study and cultivate morality...

However, whether he can suppress the savage Tang Hao depends on his own ability!

This cabinet has also become the place where the three of them are in charge, and no one has entered it so far.

Do you wish that I, Li Dongyang, would get out of here and give up my power?
You know, Yang Tinghe is the Master of Emperor Zhengde!
He originally followed the same path as Liu Jian, the chief minister of the cabinet.

Of course he understood the implication of Lord Yuansuke's words.

I have been given up.

Lord Yuan Fu has a more suitable successor, Grand Bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion, Yang Tinghe!

However, Xie Qian didn't have any unnecessary thoughts, but was relieved.

After all, his temperament is really not suitable for being the chief minister of the cabinet.

Xie Qian naturally thought carefully about Lord Yuan Fu's previous suggestions, but this was his original intention as an official, so it was impossible for him to do what Liu Jian did and give up the principles he adhered to for the sake of the overall situation.

Then, it would be better not to be the chief minister of the cabinet, which would feel better in my heart.

After burning the incense, Yang Tinghe walked into Wenyuan Pavilion in a daze.

No, now you are in the cabinet?

Isn't it a little... too fast?
And this is a bit too inexplicable!
Yang Tinghe, who is only forty-seven years old now, has joined the cabinet to assist the government and achieved an achievement that other civil servants can hardly achieve in their lifetime?

What happened today caught both Yang Ting and himself a little unprepared, and their expressions were a little dazed.

Xie Qian personally greeted Yang Tinghe. After the two saluted each other, they took him to the cabinet for duty.

"Bachelor Yang, go in, Lord Yuanfu has something to say to you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Qian turned around and left with a smile.

Lucky juniors, welcome to Master Yuansuke’s teachings!
Yang Tinghe took a deep breath, gently pushed the door open, and then closed the door wisely.

Liu Jian did not raise his head, but stared at the chessboard.

"Jiefu, how about playing a game of chess with me?"

"Yuan Fu has your destiny, don't dare to disobey it!"

Yang Tinghe sat respectfully opposite Liu Jian, picked up the chess pieces and was about to place them. "Jiefu, when did you have any contact with the Marquis of Zhongshan?"

As soon as these words came out, Yang Tinghe was stunned.

But he was not a fool and reacted quickly.

"Master Yuanfu means..."

"That "Dijian Tushuo" was written by the Marquis of Zhongshan?"

"But Xiaguan has no contact with the Marquis of Zhongshan, and has not even spoken to him. Why would the Marquis of Zhongshan do this..."

"Loyal and patriotic Marquis Zhongshan!" Liu Jian roughly understood what was going on, and immediately sighed sincerely.

"After all, I still underestimate Tang Hao!"

Using a book of "Emperor's Illustrations" to help Yang Tinghe enter the cabinet would not be of any benefit to him, Tang Hao, but it would be of great benefit to the little emperor!
What Tang Hao made is indeed very beautiful!

"Jiefu, Tang Hao, the Marquis of Zhongshan, will be your biggest enemy in the future!"

Yang Tinghe: "???"

……

Changlu Saltworks.

It's been a busy few days.

First, a group of government officials came to each village to search for the two missing scoundrels. However, they were kicked out of the village because they bullied others and insulted the kitchen households, causing an uproar in the entire salt field.

And these Zaohu saltmen, who had been bullied for many years, saw clearly for the first time that these official men were sometimes afraid. They were even beaten to the point where they knelt down to beg for mercy, and then fled the village in a hurry. Where? There is still the arrogance of the past!
After witnessing this scene with their own eyes, many of the oppressed Zaohu salt workers began to truly examine this abnormal salt farm system.

Maybe, I don't need to do it anymore, and I'll just be a slave to these damn government servants!

A spirit called resistance is growing in the hearts of every Zaohu Yanding!

A single spark can start a prairie fire. Once a prairie fire begins, the salt field will completely change!

Tang Hao did nothing. He went back to the grove at night to listen to what his brothers had seen and did some ideological work. During the day, he continued to help Liu Dashan's family cook salt, just like an ordinary, law-abiding salt cook. I just want to make a living honestly.

However, this shitty world just likes to bully people like him who "keep themselves safe".

Today, two yamen came to the salt farm, drank together the salt workers who were cooking salt, and then casually set new rules.

"Starting from today, your daily commission will increase to ten cents per cent!"

"It's because some of you unruly people dare to disobey and beat our brothers, so this is a lesson for you!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.

The kitchen door saltmen immediately exploded, talking and quarreling.

They worked hard to boil salt for a day, but they could only earn ten cents. Now they have to pay five cents more to these officials and servants, so what do they use to pay the salt tax?
Doesn’t this push people to a dead end?

Several older kitchen households showed flattering expressions and stepped forward to get close to the two yamen servants and say nice things to them. However, the weak ones had no right to bargain.

I saw two government officials beating people directly, beating and kicking them, and beat the three old kitchen households to bloody wounds on the spot.

Tang Hao has been watching from the side and has no intention of taking action.

But the little girl tugged on his sleeves, her eyes full of prayer.

"Big brother, help them, okay?"

Tang Hao did not respond, but looked at the people around him who dared to be angry but dared not speak.

Seeing that the three old stove farmers were about to be beaten to death, he finally relented and stepped forward step by step.

Wang San, the yamen servant who was beating someone, was suddenly grabbed by the hand. He turned around and saw a tall, burly man looking at him coldly. For a moment, he couldn't help but swallowed. .

"You... you are such a cunning person..."

"What do you want to do? Let me go quickly!"

"I am a member of the government. If you dare to resist, you will be punished by death!"

"Oh, people from the government?" Tang Hao sneered: "What a big piece of skin!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Hao punched the government servant, knocking him to the ground. Blood dripped in his face instantly, and screams resounded throughout the audience.

When another yamen officer saw this, he was so frightened that he immediately pulled out the sword from his waist and looked at Tang Hao with a mix of shock and anger.

"You unruly person!"

"How dare you?"

"You are resisting the government, you are rebelling!"

Hearing the two sensitive words "rebellion", the Zaohu craftsmen who had been furious before suddenly fell silent.

Even if they have no experience, they still understand what the word "rebellion" means. It is a capital crime that will destroy the nine tribes!
Even the three old kitchen households who were beaten earlier were panicked and hurriedly scolded Tang Hao.

"You young man, why don't you stop!"

"Kneel down and admit your mistake, Mr. Cha!"

"Are you going to kill us all?"

Hearing these words, the official straightened his back and looked at Tang Hao coldly.

"Boy, you are dead!"

"I must punish you for being a bandit and punish your whole family!"

Tang Hao became a little impatient, so he grabbed the Yamen servant on the ground and threw him at him. The next moment, the sound of cracking bones was heard, and the two Yamen servants were wailing on the ground.

All the Zaohu Yanding were stunned on the spot, and then endless panic swept over them.

This damn migrant, what did he do?

"Open your eyes and see, they are just human beings, there is nothing to be afraid of!"

"As for the government, as for the rebellion, this is not something that can be decided by just two government officials. They are not even officials, so what qualifications do they have to represent the government..."

Tang Hao shouted coldly, but before he finished speaking, there was a burst of angry shouting behind him.

"They really can't, what about me?"

Tang Hao turned around and saw an official wearing a sixth-grade egret uniform, striding over, followed by dozens of officers and soldiers.

As soon as the official appeared, all the Zaohu saltmen fell to their knees on the ground, panicking and panicking.

"You are so brave, you unruly man!"

"I recently heard that the salt field is not peaceful. It turns out that there are unruly bandits like you who despise the government!"

"Since you said that these two yamen servants cannot represent the government, and I am a sixth-grade Yunsi judge, can they represent the government and punish you, a unruly citizen?"

Tsk tsk, a sixth-grade Yunsi judge!
Tang Hao had an inexplicable smile on his face.

The official became even more angry when he saw this, and immediately ordered: "Come on, take down this unruly citizen!"

"Your Excellency is really... such a great official authority!"
