The servants sent by Mo Qinghe waited according to the master's order. When it was almost time, they pretended to be in a hurry and rushed to the magistrate's yamen to report.
When Magistrate Yang heard that there were people attacking the imperial envoy under his jurisdiction, he was scared out of his wits. He was so angry that smoke came out of his seven orifices: These unruly people, aren't they making things difficult for me, Old Liu?
At that moment, the well-read magistrate threw down his writing brush, grabbed the dog-beating stick from the hands of the yamen runners, and personally led people to the Mo mansion. The scholars of the Ming Dynasty all learned to bow and horse. Although most of them were superficial, the basic skills were still there. The people of Hangzhou saw the magistrate carrying a wind and fire stick and leading the yamen runners of the Hangzhou government out in full force. They were in a hurry like fierce dogs fighting for food. Such a spectacle could be called a spectacle, and they couldn't help but be surprised.
Magistrate Yang actually did this with great purpose. If the rioters really hurt the imperial envoy or Master Mo, he might not be able to keep his position as the magistrate of Paradise. It was hard to say whether he could keep his position. Now so many people saw him bravely saving the imperial envoy. How could the court's punishment be heavy?
Magistrate Yang brought a lot of people. Zao Li, Kuai Shou, Brisk Bu, Min Zhuang, Ma Zhuang, and even City Zhuang and Li Nong were brought. Altogether, there were probably thousands of people. Two days ago, after Yang Ling handed over more than 300 prisoners to Yang Mengying, people heard that Yuan Xiong had fallen and came to the magistrate's yamen to complain about the injustice.
The imperial envoy was still here and had not left, Yang Mengying did not dare to slack off in his work. For the past two days, the drum in front of the main hall had not stopped crying out for grievances. Papers of complaint were piled up on several large writing desks. Some of the down and out scholars who were writing complaints on behalf of others simply moved to the yamen entrance to conduct their work.
These groups of people on the left and right were constantly brought up and taken down. Just in case, he found all the people he could use and stationed them between the yamen and the prison. So when he got the news, he could quickly gather so many people.
As soon as the people of the magistrate's yamen arrived at the Mo mansion, they immediately yelled and went everywhere to arrest people. As the saying goes, everything has its subjugation. When they heard the order not to kill people, they immediately had their hands and feet tied and couldn't do anything to these people. However, the yamen runners were very familiar with dealing with the people.
For a moment, rods and whips flew in the air, and shackles and shackles blended together. The commoners were like mice that had seen a cat. Some ran away, while others surrendered. Soon, the situation was under control.
In this short period of time, the Western Straddling Courtyard was destroyed beyond recognition. The prefectural magistrate, accompanied by the Chief Patrol Inspector and the Warden, rushed into the rear courtyard in panic, looking for the Imperial Envoy everywhere. The envoy Liu Biao sent to find Gao Wenxin had also arrived.
Although Yang Ling's wound was not fatal, he had lost too much blood. His face was pale and half of his body was stained with blood. Liu Biao and the others helped him into a small building. Gao Wenxin, who had hurried over with medicine, rushed in to bandage his wound. Liu Biao brought his men and surrounded the small building, not allowing anyone to enter.
Originally, they came to catch the rebels, but when they arrived, it was the eunuch guarding the place who wanted to assassinate the Imperial Envoy. The inside of the temple was dark and gloomy, emitting a stench. It was like the pit of the gates of hell. There was also a pile of bones in it, which made Prefectural Magistrate Yang and the others shudder.
When Madam Mo saw that the local magistrate had arrived, she hurriedly went forward to explain what had happened. She disguised herself as an ignorant person who had been deceived by Mo Qinghe. She inadvertently heard him and the housekeeper discussing to harm the Imperial Envoy, so she found Housekeeper Li and told him about the righteousness. This made Housekeeper Li wake up and report to the Imperial Envoy, saving the Imperial Envoy's life.
Housekeeper Li Fu stood on the side as a witness. The two of them echoed each other. Originally, Mo Qinghe was the mastermind behind these evil deeds. The two of them tried to exaggerate their contributions and downplayed the fact that they assisted Mo Qinghe in his evil deeds. They pushed all the blame onto the dead Mo Qinghe and Li Gui who was in custody. In this way, their contributions were overshadowed.
Housekeeper Li Fu had been bought over by Dai Lou Er for only two days. Since Dai Lou Er felt that Mo Qinghe, this tree, had become a vine that could entangle people to death, she immediately hardened her heart and offered him the "brilliant plan" to lure him to a dead end.
To carry out these plans, she needed a capable person to help. This person was Li Fu. Although Li Fu had followed Mo Qinghe for many years and showed his loyalty, Dai Lou Er could see through the cowardice and greed hidden in the bones of this so-called loyal servant.
After plotting for Mo Qinghe that day, she looked for Li Fu. She reasoned with him, scared him, promised him money, and finally, she did not hesitate to seduce him with her beauty. She completely grasped Mo Qinghe's most capable confidant in her hands. Only then did she secretly ask to see Yang Ling.
She saw clearly that since Yang Ling was determined to get Li Gui, Li Gui definitely couldn't be saved. It was only a matter of time that Li Gui would reveal the truth under torture. Instead of dying together with Mo Qinghe, it was better to surrender to the imperial envoy before Li Gui.
When Dai Lou 'er was at the' House of Spring Rain ', Magistrate Yang was one of her guests. Later on, Mo Qinghe took Dai Lou' er as his wife and brought her back home. Magistrate Yang had always felt that it was a pity. At this time, when he saw Dai Lou 'er speaking in a delicate and timid manner, crying like a pear blossom in the rain, Magistrate Yang's bones and tendons softened. How could he not believe her?
When the people next to them heard that Mo Qinghe colluded with Wokou pirates, used Wokou pirates as a scourge, and occupied more than 100,000 hectares of fertile land. What was more outrageous was that he even ate dozens of children's brains raw. They couldn't help but be shocked.
The piles of white bones under the temple were the skeletons of the more than 30 orphans killed by Mo Qinghe. There was also a badly mutilated corpse on the wall at the bottom of the cave that hadn't been completely eaten by rats. It was the poor orphan that Mo Qinghe brought back from the tea garden last time. When the disobedient servants called by Magistrate Yang went down to collect the bones, they vomited in disgust when they saw the miserable scene.
When Mo Qinghe and Dai Lou Er were playing, he accidentally heard her talk about the legend that eating children's brains could make a dead tree grow again. He believed it was true. He was now in a high position of power, but when it came to men, he felt that he was not even as good as a servant carrying the toilet. If there was such a wonderful prescription in the world, even if there was only a one in a million chance, he would try it at all costs.
Dai Lou Er used to be the red card of the "Spring Rain Apricot Flower House" and the number one prostitute in Jiangnan. Scholars and famous scholars flocked to her. At least, she could choose men with the title of Top Courtesan. Since she married Mo Qinghe, she was used by him to please those powerful officials. She felt even more humiliated than when she was a prostitute. Therefore, she also hoped that this ancient prescription would be effective, and she would no longer be sent by him.
But this method was really evil. Mo Qinghe was afraid of being killed by the vengeful spirits, so he built this strange Buddhist temple and threw all the corpses of the orphans whose brains were eaten into the cave. Then he built a Buddhist temple above the cave to help the souls of the dead.
He was also afraid that this behavior, which angered people and gods, would be known by heaven, so he added another layer on top of the temple and arranged some messy magic tools from who knows where. He was afraid that heaven would know. Such a contradictory and stupid practice, even with Mo Qinghe's shrewdness, he still arranged it seriously. It could be seen that although he was devoid of conscience and did not fear the people's hearts and laws, he still knew how to fear ghosts and gods.
Zhang Fubao stood in front of Yang Ling's small building in a daze. Her snow-white face was completely bloodless. Taoist master Zhang saw that his sister was too frightened. He couldn't help but sigh. He gently walked over and wiped the few drops of blood on her cheek. He said softly, "Bao 'er, your clothes are stained with blood. Why don't you ask the servant girl to take you to change clothes first?"
Zhang Fubao hurriedly shook her head and said, "No, I … I'll wait for him here. Mr. Yang … to save me … how can I leave with peace of mind?"
Taoist master Zhang laughed and said, "His Excellency's injury is just excessive blood loss. It's not life-threatening. What are you worried about? Well … that's good. His Excellency is injured. I'm afraid he still has to deal with Mo Qinghe's case. We'll leave after seeing Mr. Yang in a while. We'll go back and change clothes. "
He thought that his sister had grown up and was worried about undressing and changing clothes in someone else's house, so she changed her words temporarily. He didn't know that the little girl's mind was in a mess. She was frightened and worried. There was also a thought that she didn't dare to think about, but she couldn't help but want to think about it. This man, will he be my husband for life?
She saw the person she was destined to marry in the future, and that person didn't know it. He had three wives and concubines. She really didn't want to marry into his house. She didn't know why fate had such an arrangement. How could she not panic?
Taoist master Zhang also sighed in his heart. Yang Ling was injured in order to save his sister. Although the injury couldn't be life-threatening, it was unreasonable to leave tomorrow. He was afraid that his mother would have to wait for a few more days.
At this time, Baihu Zheng came out of the room. Everyone saw him and quickly surrounded him. Baihu Zheng cupped his fists and said, "Taoist master, Sirs, the imperial envoy lost too much blood and is weak. He needs to rest, so he can't see you. Taoist master and Prefectural Magistrate, please come in for a chat."
Prefectural Magistrate Yang tidied up his clothes and respectfully invited Taoist master Zhang to take a step forward. The two entered the small building. Dai Lou 'er stood alone next to the rockery by the pool. She was also a little nervous.
She carefully calculated for a while. Not many people knew what Mo Qinghe had done except for a few trusted people. Even Li Fu didn't know that she also participated in it and gave advice to Mo Qinghe. Now that Mo Qinghe was dead, there was no evidence. No one could drag her into this. After thinking carefully and confirming that there were no flaws, she was relieved.
Thinking of Mo Qinghe's huge property, she was a little distressed. Mo Qinghe's land and real estate were destined to be confiscated by the government. Even on Du Qingjiang's side … Who didn't know that the people from the factory guards were the best at searching for clues? She was afraid that they couldn't keep it. That was a family property of hundreds of millions.
Dai Lou 'er secretly sighed, "It seems that only the 260,000 silver notes hidden in my jewelry box can be kept. Now that Mo Qinghe has fallen, who will I rely on in the future?"
Although Dai Lou 'er was wise and her means were much more brilliant than Mo Qinghe, no matter how brilliant her means were, she could only rely on a man. The world didn't allow a woman to show her face in public, unless she was willing to live a plain life and buy a house to live a plain life in seclusion.
Dai Lou 'er thought of her current situation and felt a little lost: The governor and the commander are all officials of the province. Although they are infatuated with me, who is willing to pay for it? My current identity is even worse than the famous prostitute in Jiangnan. She is now the wife of a eunuch, and this eunuch is a man-eating demon.
If I secretly visit these officials now, they will not wait to drag me to bed, right? But in public, I'm afraid these hypocrites will avoid me like the plague. Do I, Dai Lou 'er, have to be unknown from now on? Maybe in half a year, maybe in a year … no one will remember me anymore.
Dai Lou'er gently caressed her soft and smooth cheeks. She suddenly felt that wealth and luxury were just like her youth and beauty. She still looked glamorous, but unknowingly, it had already slipped away, and she couldn't even catch it anymore.
"Forget it. It seems to be very honorable to follow Mo Qinghe, but when have I ever been happy? I'm no longer young. It's better for me to find a place with verdant hills and limpid waters, find a man who understands me, and play the zither! "
Dai Lou 'er convinced herself. When she was in a trance, Taoist master Zhang and Magistrate Yang had already walked out of the small building. Magistrate Yang walked in front of her and said with a smile, "Madam, madam?"
"En?" Dai Lou 'er's confused eyes stagnated for a moment, then suddenly became clear. She asked in surprise, "Daren has come out? How is the imperial envoy? "
Magistrate Yang was shorter than her. He greedily glanced at her beautiful and towering breasts. He swallowed his saliva and said, "Daren is blessed by heaven. His life is not in danger. He just lost a lot of blood, so he doesn't have the energy to see the guests now.
Just now, the imperial envoy ordered me to take over the case and investigate … the case of your husband colluding with the enemy and killing people. I still have a lot of doubts about the case. Can madam come to the yamen, and I will ask about it in detail? "
He saw that Dai Lou 'er was startled, so he quickly comforted her, "Madam put righteousness before family and saved the imperial envoy. You deserve great credit. Although you are the family of a criminal, you shouldn't be punished. I just want to ask about the case." As he said this, his lecherous eyes couldn't help but slide over her slender waist.
Dai Lou 'er looked at his sneaky look and couldn't help but laugh: These people are like a group of dogs, and as long as I don't lose my beauty, I will be a bone in their mouths for them to snatch. Now that Mo Qinghe had just died, this mangy dog that didn't dare to come near came to snatch the bone.
Her heart was filled with hatred. She wanted to stab this lecherous short and fat man to death like how she killed Mo Qinghe. But her face slowly overflowed with a charming and sweet smile.
Dai Lou 'er raised her hand and flirtatiously swept her hair to the back of her beautiful white ears. Her posture was extremely elegant. Her long neck made Magistrate Yang's gaze fixated again.
Dai Lou 'er smiled sweetly and said, "Okay, then please wait for me for a moment. After I see Mister Yang, I will follow you back to the yamen."
Magistrate Yang smiled and said, "No need. When I came out, Qianhu Liu already told the foreigners that the imperial envoy needs to rest and won't see any guests."
Dai Lou 'er said, "I know. But if Mister Yang doesn't see others, how can he not see … ah …" She softly exhaled and suddenly covered her mouth with her hand as if she accidentally said something. Her big black eyes flashed with a trace of panic and shyness.
Magistrate Yang saw that she wanted to say something but then hesitated and immediately became suspicious. The arrogant expression that he didn't dare to show in front of Dai Lou 'er for a long time disappeared. He embarrassedly smiled with a trace of humility and said, "Uh … did the imperial envoy ask Madam anything else? Uh … this … since it's like this, I will return to the yamen first. If there's anything unclear about the case, I will come back to the yamen to ask for advice. "
Dai Lou 'er resisted the urge to laugh: Is this an official? Everyone says that I am cheap and that we, the women in the brothel, are cheap? Isn't this kind of man cheap? He only suspects that I have climbed up to a higher official than him, and he immediately behaves even worse than a lowly prostitute like me. They sold out even more thoroughly than us!
"I am not satisfied. Why do I have to be bullied by others? I have the capital to be a superior person. How many people can compare to me in terms of scheming and appearance? I am Dai Lou 'er who looks back and smiles in the spring rain of Jiangnan. Isn't Magistrate Yang drooling over me? I have never failed … never … only … no, that's not my loss. It's because he is sick, otherwise … "
An idea that she didn't want to think about jumped into her heart at this time: Is what he said true? He appeased Mo Qinghe on the surface, but he secretly sent people to catch Li Gui. Will what he said to me be true? "
The more self-abased a person is, the more they want to suppress others. Dai Lou 'er was provoked by Magistrate Yang. Her somewhat depressed heart was rekindled with the desire for power and status. She calmed down and said with a faint smile: "Daren is busy with official business. If daren still has something you don't understand, you only need to send a bailiff to summon me. How would I dare not go to the yamen? Now, I will go see Mr. Yang first … oh, it's the Imperial Envoy. "
After Dai Lou 'er finished speaking, she straightened her chest and walked to the front of the building like a swaying lotus flower. She smiled sweetly at Baihu Zheng and said: "Daren, please send a message for me. Just say that Dai Lou' er has something important to report to the Imperial Envoy."
Baihu Zheng knew that it was all Dai Lou 'er's work that made Mo Qinghe reveal his true colors today. She said she had something important to report, so he didn't dare to be careless. He politely cupped his hands and said: "Madam, please wait for a moment. I will go and report to daren."
Magistrate Yang stood next to the rockery and saw Dai Lou 'er walk forward. She only whispered a few words, and that Baihu went back to report. He couldn't help but be surprised. He originally wanted to get his hands on Dai Lou' er and secretly make her his exclusive property.
As he led his people back, he secretly cursed: "This slut. Maybe she has already seduced the Imperial Envoy as soon as he arrived. No wonder she didn't put me in her eyes." Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered Mo Qinghe's fate. He couldn't help but shiver: "Could this Imperial Envoy be investigating Mo Gonggong because … a femme fatale, a femme fatale. It's better to avoid it."
Yang Ling didn't know what news Madam Mo had, so he quickly said: "Invite Madam Mo in."
At this time, his upper body was bare, and his right arm was bandaged. Hearing that he was going to see a female guest, Gao Wenxin quickly took a robe and put it on him. She also took a cloak and tied it in front of his chest.
Dai Lou 'er walked into the room and saw Yang Ling sitting at the table. There was a pile of blood-stained cotton towels and medicinal gourds on the table. She quickly squatted down to greet him and said softly: "Is Daren well? I was afraid that something might have happened to Daren. I was worried to death. "
Dai Lou 'er's actions were graceful and graceful, but in Gao Wenxin's eyes, she felt that it was a bit pretentious. Dai Lou 'er's methods were impeccable. However, when she was in school, she had an attitude of flattery while the other had the natural temperament of a noble family's daughter. Others might not be able to see the slight difference between the two, but it couldn't be hidden from Gao Wenxin's eyes.
She couldn't help but secretly curl her lips and thought: "Whether he is a bad person or not, instead of worrying about his own husband's death, he has to worry about my master? Ah … that's right, in Suzhou … "
Gao Wenxin rolled her eyes and thought: "This woman is so flirtatious. If she dares to seduce my master, I will tell him about what I saw in Suzhou. This woman isn't a good person. He will definitely be unlucky if he gets close to her."
Yang Ling smiled and said: "This official is injured and can't get up to greet you. It's really impolite. Madam, you don't have to be so polite. This is your courtyard. Isn't it funny for me, the guest, to be the host? Quick, sit down. If not, I will be too ashamed to show my face. "
Dai Lou 'er smiled and sat down at the side. She raised her pretty eyes and saw Yang Ling looking at her thoughtfully. Her heart skipped a beat and she smiled unnaturally: "Did I do anything impolite? Why is Master looking at me like this? "
Yang Ling smiled and said, "Oh, I just saw that Madam's body was delicate and weak, dressed in white like a pear blossom after the rain. I didn't expect that you would dare to kill someone … Even if you are a man, not everyone is so decisive.
Dai Lou 'er's eyes turned red and she teared up: "Is Master blaming me … blaming me for not capturing the culprit alive or blaming me for killing my husband?"
Yang Ling saw that she was not faking it. Although he felt that her crying was a little pretentious, he still raised his hand and said: "Madam is sorry … Ouch …"
He raised his right hand out of habit. He did not expect it to affect his wound and he frowned in pain. Gao Wenxin hurriedly stepped forward and gently put down his arm. She complained, "Laoye … look at you …" She originally wanted to complain a bit more, but she suddenly remembered that Madame Mo was still sitting there, so she immediately shut her mouth.
But her tone and actions were gentle and intimate. It was not the attitude of a servant to her master. How could Dai Lou 'er not see it?
She is the Divine Doctor of the Gao Clan in the capital? She is responsible for curing Yang Ling's unmentionable disease? If Yang Ling and Mo Qinghe were the same kind of people, why is this woman so affectionate towards him?
Dai Lou 'er immediately understood that she was deceived by Yang Ling. She secretly raised her guard: This person is younger than me by six or seven years. I thought that he became the supervisor of the inner factories because of the Emperor's favor. Now it seems that this person's patience and determination are extraordinary. I really cannot underestimate him.
Dai Lou Er thought to herself. She looked up at Yang Ling and said, "Lord, you know how Mo Qinghe treats you and me. Last time, we … last time, we …" Dai Lou Er blushed as she said this. She seemed to be thinking about the time when they met naked. She was so shy that she couldn't help but blush.
She then sighed faintly and said: "I only hate him to the core. How can I have any affection towards him? This lowly concubine didn't expect his two personal bodyguards to be so skilled in martial arts. I was afraid that if something happened to Daren, this lowly concubine would be consigned to eternal damnation. That was why I acted rashly. Fortunately, Daren's bodyguards were quick-witted and rushed downstairs at this time … "
She had slightly reversed the sequence, but at that time, Yang Ling was only concerned with grabbing Zhang Fubao who had fallen into the cave, and Yang Ling's bodyguards had just rushed down the stairs, and were only concerned with the two highly skilled bodyguards. The whole thing happened in an instant. Who could see clearly whether she stabbed first or then? Who could explain it clearly? "
Anyway, she had already taken off her clothes in front of him. There was no need for her to pretend to be a lady. Dai Lou 'er's bold words made Yang Ling blush. Gao Wenxin listened to Dai Lou 'er's ambiguous tone. She could not help but look at the two of them suspiciously. She did not know what they did last time.
Yang Ling quickly changed the topic and said: "I was just surprised that a woman like Madam has such courage. I did not mean anything else. Madam, please do not blame me. I wonder why Madam is in such a hurry to see me. Is there anything urgent? "
Dai Lou'er was stunned when she heard this. She hated Magistrate Yang for wanting to use his power and body to force her to serve him now that she had lost her backer. Thus, she made up a random excuse to use Magistrate Yang's authority to help her vent her frustrations. When did she have anything important to report to him?
She hurriedly thought about it and casually found an excuse: "Mo Qinghe hid a lot of copper coins in his secret room. Because the Wei Nation lacked usable currency, he exchanged the copper coins with silver to trade with the Wei Nation. A thousand copper coins in the Great Ming Dynasty is one tael of silver, but if you use it to buy goods in the Wei Nation, you can exchange it for goods worth one or two taels of silver. I was afraid that Master did not know the purpose of his large amount of copper coins, so … "
Yang Ling chuckled and said: "This is not an urgent matter. When the officials do an inventory, they will naturally find out. Madam can just tell Magistrate Yang, why do you …"
Dai Lou 'er was now thinking about Yang Ling. Since beauty could not make him fall head over heels for her, she naturally wanted to show off her talent. How could she let him look down on her?
She had already thought of an excuse to stall for a moment. She smiled and said: "You are right. Actually, this lowly concubine is here … to offer Master a plan."
Yang Ling's gaze froze. He stopped smiling and said: "Offer a plan? What does Madam mean …? "
Dai Lou 'er said: "This lowly concubine knows that Master has just become a factory supervisor and your foundation in the capital is not stable yet. This trip to Jiangnan is to smoothly take over the Tax Supervision Department. Jiangnan's taxes account for 60 to 70 percent of the world's taxes. If Jiangnan is pacified, the situation will be set in stone. Now that two out of the three Guardians of Jiangnan are gone, the hearts of the Guardians of the world will definitely waver. If this causes the tax collection to be unstable, the court will be in chaos. Those who are dissatisfied with Master will probably take the opportunity to attack. "
Her pair of beautiful eyebrows glanced at Yang Ling. Seeing that Yang Ling was listening attentively, she couldn't help but raise her spirits. She continued: "This lowly concubine has been in Jiangnan for a long time. Usually, I have heard Mo Qinghe talk about some tax matters. So … I have some shallow knowledge that I want to say to Master. Perhaps it will be of help to Master."
After Yang Ling captured Yuan Xiong, he was worried about where to find a suitable Tax Guardian. It was not difficult to find a random one, but it was hard to say whether the taxes here could be collected in full and on time. Now that he had captured two, what he had to consider was not only the problem of the candidates, but also the hearts of the people.
When the Tax Supervision Department heard the news, it was likely that they would all be panicking. At that time, there was no television, telegraph, or video conference. How could he appease them? If the taxes could not be collected, not to mention the Tax Supervision Department being reassigned to the Department of Rites, it was likely that the West Factory would have to be closed.
With Dongchang's style of killing the snake and not leaving behind any future troubles, it would be strange if they did not take advantage of the situation to never be able to rise again. How to appease the Tax Supervision Department of the world and how to select these two most important Tax Supervision candidates were the problems that he needed to solve the most at present.
Although it was difficult to find evidence to take them down, there were not that many consequences that needed to be considered. Although it was easy to arrange a new Tax Supervision Department, it would affect the overall situation. If it was not handled properly, even the merit of eradicating evil would be erased. So when Yang Ling heard this, he couldn't help but perk up his ears, asking: "Oh? What brilliant plan does Madam Mo have? Quickly tell me. "
Dai Lou Er sweetly said: "Actually these two matters are one and the other is the other. Solving the problem of the candidates will also solve the problem of appeasing the people. The new Tax Supervision Department must have the ability to quickly take over the tax collection. At the same time, they must be loyal to Daren and be able to appease the hearts of the Tax Supervision Department of the world. They must also be able to help Daren punish evil and establish his authority. To achieve four birds with one stone, this trip to Jiangnan can be considered a success."
Yang Ling hurriedly brought over a cup of tea and happily said: "Yang is willing to hear the details, please advise me Madam."
Dai Lou Er heard his warm tone, which was very different from his previous attitude, and thought that she had gained his appreciation and favor. She couldn't help but be overjoyed and said with a bright smile: "This is easy. That is to use the local resources. Daren can transfer the Tax Supervision Department and Grain Supervision Department from Jiaxing, Lishui, and other small places to be the Tax Supervision Department of Suzhou and Hangzhou. They have lived in Jiangnan for a long time and are familiar with the situation here. As long as they are appointed, they can smoothly take over and this year's tax collection will not be affected.
These people have not been promoted for a long time, but now they are suddenly promoted to the important Guards Department of Jiangnan. Daren has promoted them and with the fate of a disobedient Tax Supervision Department like Yuan Xiong, if they are not loyal to Daren, will they be loyal to the people from the Bureau of Rites?
As for the vacancies created by transferring them, we can no longer use people from the capital. Firstly, there is not enough time. After Daren returns to the capital and selects people, they will rush over to take up their posts, recruit soldiers, and familiarize themselves with the situation. If everything goes according to plan, I'm afraid it will be June next year.
Moreover, the majority of the eunuchs in the capital are from the Bureau of Rites. Daren doesn't know the ins and outs. If you choose the wrong person, won't you be returning the authority back to the Bureau of Rites? Ming Destiny's Tax Supervision Department has always been held by eunuchs, and these eunuchs are not limited to the capital … "
Yang Ling's eyes brightened and blurted out: "Jinling!"
Dai Lou Er's eyes narrowed into two crescent moons and she said with a smile: "That's right!"
"So … the Guards … Daren can be transferred from Jinling. The eunuchs in Jinling are all idle positions. Those people are all people who failed in the struggle for favor in the capital and were chased here to retire. They are depressed and unable to achieve their ambitions. They can handle matters and are familiar with the customs of Jiangnan. Moreover, once they have a chance to walk out of that palace wall that awaits death, they will wholeheartedly work for Daren.
If Daren promotes the original Tax Supervision Department's people to important positions, it will give the Tax Supervision Department's Guards a reassurance pill. It will let them know that as long as they work hard, Daren will place them in an important position.
Transferring people from Jinling can solve the problem of the new Tax Supervision Department's loyalty and also give the other Tax Supervision Department a warning. If they are half-hearted, there are plenty of people waiting to pledge loyalty to Daren. This way, if you want to control the Tax Supervision Department of the world, why would Daren need to personally run around? Since Jiangnan has fallen, the world's situation is already set! "
Yang Ling was exhilarated as he listened. The more he chatted with Dai Lou'er, the more he felt like he regretted not having met her earlier. Dai Lou'er was obedient and eloquent, and she was also trying to please him. Her seductive demeanor made Gao Wenxin's Dantian ache and his lower Dantian swell up. He wanted to gouge out her eyeballs that were darting around.
In the end, Yang Ling stood up despite his injuries and personally sent Dai Lou Er out of the building. He watched her leave before returning to the room. Gao Wenxin couldn't help but say: "Daren, how can you treat her … her identity … if you bring her with you, her reputation … and you don't know, when she was in Suzhou … Aiya, I can't say it. In any case, she's not a good person."
Yang Ling saw that the usually quiet Gao Wenxin's face was red. Even her neck seemed to be smeared with a layer of rouge. He couldn't help but chuckle: "Why does it look like I'm about to fall into the tiger's mouth? Is it so scary? Is it because she's prettier than you? Hahaha! "
Gao Wenxin saw that he didn't seem to care and couldn't help but stomp her feet. She said anxiously: "Aiya, my Master! Why are you so muddle-headed? You're doing this for no reason. I think it's not just the tiger's mouth! "
Gao Wen Xin saw he was still grinning, she could not help but turn her face away and angrily mumbled, "My good intentions are taken as donkey's liver and lung. His master is favored by a beautiful woman, his heart is very happy. I am really unnecessary. The Emperor is not anxious, but the eunuch is anxious." As she spoke, she felt wronged and could not stop her tears from falling.
Yang Ling didn't expect to make her cry when he teased her. He panicked and quickly comforted her: "My Miss Wen Xin, are you made of water? Don't cry, don't cry. I'm just teasing you.
