Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1110 Long live my emperor, long live, long live

   Wu Kuan's words are sincere.

   Tears are about to come out.

  The heart of caring for the people is vividly displayed on the face.

  Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

  As the Son of Heaven, he is extremely eager to refute.

  My inner money, why must there be very little left, so that I can appear holy.

  You love the people so much, and you have received the grace of the country, why don't you use your own money to help the people?

  Of course, Emperor Hongzhi would not argue with Wu Kuan.

  Just smiled slightly: "I have Wu Qing's family as the humerus, and Wu Qing as the mirror, I can straighten my clothes, Wu Qing's family, you are right."

  Just an understatement, it is considered to have been exposed.

   After all, I am still not as good as these courtiers.

  All of them...are sincere, sincere, and have a lot of truth.

  Fang Jifan was laughing foolishly by the side, in fact...seeing someone staring at His Majesty's silver made him feel very refreshed.

  It seems that rich dogs are hated by others.

  Wu Kuan seemed dissatisfied with His Majesty's compliment after hearing this.

  Wu Kuan said: "Your Majesty loves the people, but also feels that what I said is quite reasonable. If I dare to speak, why don't your majesty distribute the money from the internal money to the poor so that they can be self-sufficient?"

  Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Wu Kuan, but didn't say anything.

  The other officials were naturally silent.

  Wu Kuan is very famous, and His Majesty is the emperor, both sides are in a dilemma, so no one speaks.

Ma Wensheng saw it in his heart, and thought even more in his heart that Wu Kuan's future future is probably limitless. Today, if he questioned His Majesty in front of His Majesty, once it spreads, he will surely become famous all over the world. I clapped my hands and applauded.

  Emperor Hongzhi was unhappy, but he didn't want to show it. He just smiled: "It's cold here, I'm going to ride."

  Xiao Jing had been waiting for His Majesty's words for a long time, so he was busy helping Emperor Hongzhi to get into the carriage.

  Fang Jifan felt sympathy for Emperor Hongzhi, and sure enough... people are kind and deceived. If Emperor Taizu Gao was here, there would never be Wu Kuan in this world.

  Fang Jifan stepped forward and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I will help you get into the car."

Emperor Hongzhi released Xiao Jing from his hand, and grabbed Fang Jifan's small arm. This grasp was very powerful. Fang Jifan's forearm hurt from being caught, and he almost cried out. He looked sideways at Emperor Hongzhi, but Emperor Hongzhi On the face, there seemed to be a smile, and the surface was peaceful.

   Under this peace, what kind of turbulent waves are there.

  Hey, why did I think of Bo? Could it be that he was inspired by His Majesty, so he thought of General Fubo?

   In this way, the man's pride is overwhelming, boiling in Fang Jifan's blood, the title of Marquis is not my intention, I hope Haibo is peaceful, good poetry, good poetry!

  Emperor Hongzhi boarded the car, Fang Jifan was still smiling, but all the officials looked at him with disgust.

   This is understandable, ministers don't like flattering people, they like strength of character, and they like awe-inspiring integrity.

  Fang Jifan glanced at them indifferently, got on his horse, and shouted: "Let's go."

  The mighty team is still heading south.

   Facing the scorching sun, Fang Jifan suddenly came up with a bold idea. If Emperor Jiajing became the emperor in the previous life, then... this Ming Dynasty must be very interesting.

  ...

  Tongzhou.

   Shengjia is coming soon.

  Tongzhou is already busy.

  The canal is temporarily closed and ships are not allowed to pass through. The first Xiaoqi Battalion has begun to assist the guards and expel irrelevant people.

  Yang Yiqing took the lead, and the county magistrates from the other counties came one after another. They were waiting outside the post station outside the city as early as a day ago.

  The entire Tongzhou, inside and outside, is as solid as gold soup, with three steps for one post and five steps for one sentry.

  In order to welcome Shengjia, the tributes collected from various places have already been prepared.

  Yang Yiqing is doing his best in Tongzhou.

   And beside him, a group of capable officials is indispensable. With their assistance, it can be said to be like a wave.

  At this moment, the officials are resting in the station.

Yang Yiqing seemed quite anxious, he got up repeatedly, checked whether there were any omissions in the welcoming team, and then returned to the hall of the post station, the tea on his writing desk was cold, so he changed to another a pair.

  It was noon, and he just had time to sip his tea. Then, he frowned and couldn't help smiling bitterly: "Your Majesty's tour has cost Tongzhou a lot of effort."

"Yes, Duke Ming." It was Zhu Jie, the county magistrate of Wuqing who spoke, and Zhu Jie smiled wryly: "It's really crazy in the local area, but what can be done? This time, His Majesty's parade seems to be... a way to observe the people's sentiments." Yi, Ming Gong, what do you think?"

  The magistrates of several other counties, as well as the officials of the magistrate's office, all smiled.

  For more than a year, they can be regarded as exhausted, and the implementation of the New Deal has been very smooth, especially in Tongzhou, which relies on the canal and gathers merchants. The innate conditions are many times better than that of Baoding Mansion.

  Hearing that a new deal is coming, the merchants are not only not afraid, but rather excited.

  The business tax was collected very smoothly.

  The money that Tongzhou paid to the national treasury this year...a lot.

  Yang Yiqing, on the other hand, is even more relaxed. The rest of the officials also know that they are expected by the princes of the temple, and they are all working hard, and they can probably achieve it.

  The whole Tongzhou has a new look.

   What's more, Yang Yiqing loves the people like a son, and the gentry and common people all praise him. This year, in the Jingchao, almost the entire Tongzhou officials have been evaluated as 'competent', which is really inspiring.

  Yang Yiqing's expression softened just now. In the past year, he was indeed worthy of the word "competent", and finally... his hard work was not in vain.

He smiled and said: "A few days ago, a group of people came to my office and sang in unison. I am really ashamed and dare not be ashamed. I am in office, but I have done something for the people. This matter, the praises of the common people, this official...is ashamed of it."

Everyone laughed, and Zhu Jie, the previous Wuqing county magistrate, smiled and said, "It's a matter of course. I don't talk about other good governance, just one thing. Baoding government collected tax money, Except for turning over to the state treasury, the rest are all withheld. So much silver, has it ever benefited the people? No! But it was used to collude with the Xishan Bank and the merchants... hey..."

Speaking of this, he frowned, then looked contemptuous, and then said gratifiedly: "But Ming Gong is well aware of the sufferings of the people, and the taxes collected in this place are enough to leave two hundred and seventy thousand taels of silver. All distributed to the common people to relieve them. Isn't this... a great good government? No wonder the common people sing praises for Duke Ming."

  Yang Yiqing smiled.

Another county magistrate said: "It's not just as simple as this. The more powerful thing about Duke Ming is that in order to prevent the money that should have been distributed to the people from being corrupted by Mo officials, he also issued a special silver coupon so that the people can use it for money." This silver coupon is used to buy firewood, rice, oil and salt...this is really exciting."

  Yang Yiqing was smiling, this is indeed his proud handwriting.

  In his view, if Tongzhou is just like Baoding Prefecture and blindly colludes with merchants, then this new policy will only fatten merchants.

Since it is a New Deal, of course it is to benefit the people. Therefore, he used the silver as a reserve and distributed it to the poor people as silver vouchers. proceed to checkout.

   This is really a move to benefit the people.

Yang Yiqing said with a smile: "When the new policy was drafted, Qi Guogong proposed to take from the people and use it for the people; what he said was not wrong, but... these eight words, Baoding government did not do it, but Tongzhou did it. Now, the old man only talks about Xu Shanzheng, which makes people laugh."

  Although he was joking, his face was full of color.

   "Your Majesty and all the officials, if you know that Duke Ming loves the people so much, you don't know how happy you will be."

   Just as he was talking, a fast horse came, and an officer hurried in: "Here we are, we are here. The holy driver is about five miles away, and he is about to arrive."

  Everyone lowered their faces and became nervous.

  Yang Yiqing hurriedly straightened his clothes. Although he was nervous, he still showed a calm look: "Masters, follow me to pick you up, and remember, don't lose your dignity in front of you."

  …

  Emperor Hongzhi's holy ride is here.

  Since entering Tongzhou, the official road along the way has been devoid of people.

  Emperor Hongzhi felt strange.

   Fortunately, he didn't say much. When he arrived at Tongzhou Beiyi and got off the carriage, he saw Yang Yiqing leading all the officials in Tongzhou to come forward, but he was still far enough away from Emperor Hongzhi to pay homage.

  Emperor Hongzhi, surrounded by hundreds of officials, walked up to Yang Yiqing.

  Looking at the officials who bowed down in the mud, their faces were gentle: "You don't need to be too polite, welcome me to drive, I think it's hard work, Yang Qing's family, I see you, you are thin again."

  Yang Yiqing said calmly: "Thank you for your majesty's care, I am very grateful."

As he said that, he got up, looked up, and saw many old acquaintances, all the officials smiled at him, he understood the smile, and when his eyes touched Fang Jifan inadvertently, he saw that Fang Jifan was also smiling at him, Yang Yiqing sullenly , and then said to Emperor Hongzhi: "Your Majesty is coming from afar, you might as well go to the North Station to rest for a while."

  Emperor Hongzhi looked around: "I rarely see common people all the way, why?"

  Yang Yiqing said: "When the common people hear about the Son of Heaven, how dare they face to face."

  Emperor Hongzhi didn't say anything: "Let's advance to Tongzhou City."

  Therefore, Yang Yiqing took the lead and led Shengjia into the city, and Shengjia directly arranged to enter the Tongzhou government office.

   This road is full of sergeants, and everywhere they pass is orderly.

  Emperor Hongzhi sat down in the government office of Tongzhou, and all the officials were listed.

  Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "I came into the city, but I still don't see the people..."

  Yang Yiqing said: "Your Majesty, the people have come."

  When Emperor Hongzhi heard that the people were coming, he raised his eyebrows: "Oh, where are the people? I came here just to see the people."

  A moment later, I saw a group of people marching in, and there were quite a few.

  Emperor Hongzhi was amused, and showed a benevolent look.

  But seeing these common people, all wearing Lun scarves and Confucian fir, with a polite look, after entering the hall, they bowed down one after another: "The grass people have seen Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

  …

  Chapter 3, continue...see what the limit is.

  At the same time, I am very, very warmly grateful to the classmate 'Cai Shu Ning'. This classmate rewarded 400,000 starting coins. I would like to mention the leader. Thank you here.

  For the sake of readers, I have no choice but to fight, continue, continue, it seems that I can only sleep after finishing five chapters today, and now the third one.
