While Wang Yue was chatting with Minglan, a servant came over to report that Wang Anshi had come to the house and was already waiting in the front hall. Wang Yue knew what was going on, so he calmly and charmingly met Minglan again.
After a while, he got up and went to the front yard.
When Wang Anshi was waiting for Wang Yue to come over, he saw that Wang Yue seemed to be in a good mood, so he felt relieved. He quickly asked, "How are you going to deal with the salt affairs? It's not like we are on Fujian Road, where we only offend the place."
The gentry, but the forces behind the salt affairs are all in Tokyo."
Wang Yue nodded and said with a smile, "I know this, but if we want to reform, sooner or later the interests of those people will have to be affected. Now that the salt affairs are being affected, the officials and King Heng's subordinates have not been heavily involved, so they will stand.
On our side, if it is later, when they are also corrupted by those people, the pressure will be even greater."
After listening to Wang Yue's words, Wang Anshi knew that what Wang Yue said was reasonable, so he could only sigh, nodded and said, "You are right. If you have any problems, remember to inform me and I will help you solve it."
Wang Yue nodded and said very cautiously, "I don't pay much attention to the inspection of salt affairs. It will be the biggest trouble when we reform the salt affairs later."
After listening to Wang Yue's words, Wang Anshi understood that Wang Yue had something in his heart. He knew Wang Yue's ability, and those young people really had nothing to do with Wang Yue.
Wang Anshi remembered that the last time he took a bath, he was in Wang Yue's peach forest, but he saw Wang Yue with his own eyes, flying as light as a swallow on the treetops. He was really flying. If he hadn't known Wang Yue
Very early on, he thought Wang Yue was no longer a human being.
…
After Wang Yue accepted the position of Salt Patrol Censor, he quickly went south with Da Niu and the two of them, and soon investigated the salt affairs clearly. After getting the evidence, he reluctantly took the investigated people with him.
accounts and returned to Tokyo.
However, after Wang Yue returned to Tokyo, when he went to court, he had just submitted the prepared memorial to the officials. Before the officials had time to check it, a censor came out.
The censor's expression was very sad, he was very worried about the country and the people, and even said with some sadness, "I have my own book, I have my own report. I joined Wang Yue, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, to temporarily patrol the salt affairs. After the censor, during the inspection of salt affairs,
He is good at killing good people, and there are many deaths along the way. Wherever he goes, he will be discovered by the local people. Some people in the local area die inexplicably. It is simply a waste of human life."
Wang Yue rolled his eyes. As expected, any censor would confuse right and wrong. Bah, he was just a temporary substitute, not a censor. Wang Yue knew what the censor was talking about. Those who died were assassinated.
Wang Yue's, Wang Yue can't help but fight back and wait for someone to kill him.
The official looked at Wang Yue with some doubts. He knew the fighting power of Wang Yue and his men. Although there were not many in number, they were all good fighters. However, this time Wang Yue brought a bodyguard with him. He had to kill him.
How many people did it take to make the censor anxious?
Thinking of Wang Yue's bodyguards, the officials also had a headache. Fortunately, through surveillance during this period, the officials discovered that Wang Yue had not expanded the number of guards. Otherwise, he would really have trouble sleeping and eating.
The official also knew that those who died must have been killed by Wang Yue when he was assassinating Wang Yue, but he still wanted to take the opportunity to beat Wang Yue.
So, the official nodded and asked seemingly casually, "What's Wang Aiqing's explanation for this matter?"
Wang Yue was very surprised and glanced at the officials sitting on the dragon throne. He quickly understood the reason. He didn't expect that he only exposed himself to hundreds of people, but still made the officials afraid. These
Officials, the one who didn’t look after the house and the courtyard, why are the officials keeping an eye on him!
For a moment, Wang Yue wanted to give up his career, but thinking of his two wishes for coming to this world, he endured it again.
Wang Yue bowed his hand in a perfunctory manner and said in a deep voice, "I have already explained it in the memorial. The confessions made by the killers are here with me, and the officials can check them at any time."
When the censor heard that Wang Yue said there was evidence, he was immediately stunned. He said with a stern expression, "Those people have been killed by you. You have nothing to prove. How can you make any confession?"
Wang Yue rolled his eyes, looked at the unlucky man who was pushed out with a half-smile, and said with a smile, "Who told you, those assassins are all dead, but I still left a few alive."
The censor subconsciously said, "It's impossible, the corpse is obviously the right one..."
Wang Yue pursed his lips and said speechlessly, "Your intelligence is really hard to describe as a censor."
Wang Yue's words made most of the ministers present couldn't help but laugh. Only the people in the censor queue had ugly expressions on their faces.
The official didn't know what to say. He could see that Wang Yue was somewhat resentful of his unprotective style.
However, the official did not feel angry, but felt relieved. If Wang Yue had no temper at all, then he would feel terrible.
Thinking of this, the official coughed slightly, took down the censor, dismissed him and investigated, which was an explanation to Wang Yue.
It was only at this time that the official began to look at Wang Yue's memorial in detail. After reading it, he handed the memorial to the eunuch and forwarded it to the ministers for inspection.
It is still Wang Yue's style, combining pictures and text, the accounts are extremely clear, and the minister can see at a glance how serious the problem is.
And those who had participated in the division of profits were shocked after seeing it. They did not expect that as the masters, the benefits they received were less than the three levels collected by the people below. This was too bold.
The problem of salt affairs was quickly solved. In the face of Wang Yue's evidence, many officials were dismissed from their posts and investigated. The salt affairs suddenly became clear, and more taxes were paid to the court.
However, after this incident, Wang Yue felt that it was impossible for him to do anything while the current officials were in office. After all, it had only been a short time since they had begun to be so wary of him.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wang Yue also began to live in seclusion. He often became ill and did not go to court. He took Minglan to his peach garden and ignored government affairs at all, which left the officials helpless.
At this time, Wang Anshi also returned to his hometown in Fuzhou because his mother was seriously ill. Even Wang Anli and Wang Yu, who were on Fujian Road, went through many twists and turns and prepared to return to Fuzhou, but the emperor did not allow it, so they had no choice but to give up.
Originally, Wang Anshi and Wang Yue, two important figures in charge of the reform, suddenly one returned to his hometown in Fuzhou, and the other complained of illness and refused to go to court. The reform seemed to have come to a standstill. This made conservatives feel that the emperor no longer wanted to continue the reform, and it also made the conservatives feel that the emperor no longer wanted to continue the reform.
Their morale was boosted.
However, the emperor did not allow Wang Anli and Wang Yu to return home, and the conservatives did not dare to take any action and could only continue to wait and see.
Because Wang Yue said he was ill and could not go to court, Sheng Hong came to persuade him several times. In the eyes of this official fan, it was very unwise for Wang Yue to vent his anger on the emperor, but Wang Yue's attempts to comfort him were not at all
He didn't listen and kept going his own way.
Wang Yue took Minglan and her son, as well as his own parents, to live in Taoyuan. Even Minglan's grandmother also moved there. Wei Xiaoniang and Changdong also went to Taoyuan to live for three to five days every now and then.
Very comfortable.
Time passed like this for a while. On this day, Gu Tingye suddenly came to Taoyuan to find Wang Yue. After he met Wang Yue, he asked with a smile, "Are you really planning to be a hermit in Taoyuan? The reforms you are determined to do are not the same."
Did you do it?”
Wang Yue shook his head, knowing that Gu Tingye was trying to find out his attitude on behalf of the official family or Prince Heng, he smiled and said, "Who am I doing the reform for? It's definitely not for myself. This has just begun. There is only one Fuzhou Road.
Even though I have started to improve, the officials are already a little suspicious of me. Do you think I need it? Shang Yang in ancient times is my role model in the future."
After hearing Wang Yue's words, Gu Tingye quickly looked around, and then explained, "The saint is kind and kind, and he will definitely not do anything to kill the donkey."
Wang Yue smiled and said nonchalantly, "Whether officials are benevolent or not is something we will discuss later. You should finish your own affairs first. Seeing how many actions you are taking now, you must be planning to do something.
It's a big deal, I just take advantage of this time to leave, and it won't affect you in doing the big deal."
Gu Tingye's eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief, "Did you and Mr. Wang Anshi see our plan early on? That's why you both left the court?"
Wang Yue rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "As the saying goes, there is no way for others to sleep peacefully on the side of the bed. Today, the Emperor and the Queen Mother have caused so many troubles in such a short time. I don't think the official family is either
Maybe, I have been enduring this. I just don’t want the Queen Mother to interfere in government affairs anymore. You have made such a simple matter so complicated. Are you really not afraid of making it self-defeating? "
Gu Tingye looked at Wang Yue and didn't find anything useful, so he smiled and said, "If it's just the Queen Mother's business, it would be okay to say that although the Queen Mother is sometimes instigated by villains, she is generally very sensible. It's just that
There are many factions in the DPRK, and they are always timid in doing things. Just like your last salt inspection, no one in the civil and military officials of the DPRK was willing to come out to do things. This kind of behavior of occupying the position and not doing anything, the officials want to take the opportunity to clean up.
"
Wang Yue rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "The relationship between us is very close. You don't have to say good things to the officials. I will just rest for a while and spend time with my wife at home. When the reforms are carried out again, it may really
There is no leisure time left, and before you lead the troops out, send your wife to Taoyuan."
Gu Tingye looked at Wang Yue, then looked at Wang Yue's peach forest. He asked uncertainly, "Is your forest, which is surrounded by wind, really as safe as the imperial city?"
Wang Yue glanced at Gu Tingye and said calmly, "Don't underestimate me, this peach forest, which can at least be worth a hundred thousand soldiers. Have you heard of Zhuge's Eight Formations? Mine is about the same power as his.
