I am projecting the heavens in the revived Daming!

Chapter 56 Wipe your ass with...

The last moment before dawn passed quietly, and as the morning star began to shine, the big red sun finally ended its deep sleep and rose from under the eastern sea again.

As the sky gradually brightened, people in Hangzhou City also got up one after another to start a new day of life.

It's just that different from the day-to-day, cyclical life, today's General Wu Lue's mansion is extraordinarily lively.

Early in the morning, a few maids who were about to call for washing water to wake General Wu Lue Li Zhiyi out of bed found a bloody human head outside the door of the concubine's room in Li's mansion!
Next to the head was a letter pressed with stones...

"what!!!"

Following bursts of screams, the news quickly spread, and Li Zhiyi, who was sleeping soundly in the bedroom with his concubine's soft and delicate body in his arms, naturally couldn't sleep anymore.

As for the good morning bite that was originally scheduled, I don't have the mind to try it again.

When the panic-stricken housekeeper reported the situation to Li Zhiyi outside the bedroom, Li Zhiyi sat neatly dressed in the hall, took the letter with a livid face, and examined it carefully.

This is a letter signed by Wang Hua under the name of "Xuan Ying", which he came up with temporarily. The head is naturally the head of the pirate leader Liu Pengcheng.

The content of the letter is that when he was "night tour" in the world, he accidentally encountered a group of vicious Japanese pirates more than a hundred miles away, so he shot them out and beheaded more than a hundred people.

In the letter, Wang Hua also directly stated that he has no need for these credits, but just asks the officers and soldiers to treat those poor rescued women on the wild yellow plate kindly.

Finally, I left a sentence: I will also inform the magistrate Yamen about this matter...

Looking at this letter, Li Zhiyi's complexion was gloomy, and his thoughts were a little complicated.

His mother, if you startle me early in the morning and don't say it, I won't give all the credit to me, so why go to the magistrate's yamen to tell me what to do?
However, Li Zhiyi only dared to scold him in his heart. Wang Hua believed that he was both himself and a poor man. These days, Da Ming worshiped Taoism from top to bottom, especially when it came to Emperor Jiajing...

The emperor and Laozi are so convinced that the officials below, especially the military officers, of course follow suit.

Besides, whether this "Xuanying Daoist" was really able to travel hundreds of miles at night and kill more than a hundred Japanese pirates is still unknown, but that person did indeed put a human head quietly outside his bedroom door!
Li Zhiyi really didn't dare to express the complaints in his heart at this time, but after turning this corner in his heart, he felt a little happy again.

People sit at home, merit comes from heaven, such a good thing sent to the door, I should still worry about it, it really shouldn't be.

At that moment, Li Zhiyi hurriedly asked his servants to help him wash and eat, and after he finished dressing, he went out and went straight to the magistrate's yamen.

As for why Wang Hua called that group of pirates Japanese pirates?

This is a default unspoken rule. During this period, local officials in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Hu Jian, and even Quanzhou and other coastal areas called all the rioters, mobs, bandits, pirates, and the like: Japanese pirates!

If you report the rioters, bandits, etc., does that mean that your government is not clear and your ability is not good enough?
Otherwise, how could such troubles arise under your rule?
The officials in charge of the evaluation can easily use this reason to pin down those local officials, either asking for a lot of benefits, or using this to attack.

Over time, such unspoken rules have been rapidly formed in the past ten years and continue to this day.

This is also one of the reasons why the Japanese pirates suffered more in the late Jiajing period than before!

You also reported the Japanese pirates' invasion, and I also reported the Japanese pirates' invasion.In the end, from the perspective of the imperial court, there is no peaceful place in the entire sea area of ​​my Ming Dynasty!
Isn't this the plague of Japanese pirates!

Of course, this is just one of the reasons.

As a feudal dynasty enters the middle and late stages, especially the promotion channel to the upper class is quickly locked, and after the class is solidified, it will inevitably follow that the people are in dire straits.

What about the people who can't survive?
Be a thief!
Become a mob, a mob!

But on the official articles at this time, where are there any mobs and bandits?
Those are obviously Japanese pirates!

It is the time of panic and prosperity in my Ming Dynasty, how could there be mobs?

They are all those Japanese pirates, cruel and tyrannical, leading beasts to eat people, and plundering my Daming sea area...

……

Early in the morning, Li Laogen came to the back door of the magistrate's compound again, still passed a letter through the Mr. Tang, and then was sent back.

Wang Zan, who was wearing a crimson uniform and official robe, still kept his expressionless face after reading the letter, and handed the letter to Master Tang.

Mr. Tang, who was short in stature, read the letter and then handed the letter to another of Wang Zan's aides - Li Mo, Mr. Li, who was born in Juren.

"Meng Liang, what do you think?"

Master Tang, who was named, froze for a moment, knowing in his heart that he, the Enfu, was not as calm as he appeared on the surface.

But if you think about it, you can know that the cake of "Japanese pirates" naturally has a share of the magistrate's office. Now that this cake has fallen into the eyes of a new intruder, how could Wang Zan not care.

Of course, it is impossible to say how much risk this prefect is willing to take for this small piece of cake.

After all, most of the interests related to "Japanese pirates" fall in the magistrate's yamen...

After pondering for a while, noticing that Mr. Li next door had also read the contents of the letter, Mr. Tang said:
"When people are hungry, they have to look for food. After doing the math, the five or six thousand silver that Master Xuanying got from Zhang's family should have been spent. A few days ago, the students even heard that the man asked about the sale intention of the Lin family's house through Cui's dental shop..."

Since Wang Hua called himself "Poverty Dao Xuanying" in the letter, let's take him as a real Taoist, although there is a high probability that there is no such thing as a duo...

"You mean... But didn't those people in the city already give him presents? It adds up to nearly ten thousand taels of silver, and the man was gone so quickly?"

Master Li, who was facing Tang Mengliang, frowned and asked, thinking that Wang Hua might just be a stunned young man who didn't understand the rules?
"The students are quite interested in this Xuanying... the real person, and recently asked someone to find out. Although this person's food and clothing are not extremely luxurious, they are indeed very delicate. It is said that this person even uses rice paper to wipe his butt..."

As soon as Master Tang said this, Wang Zan, who came from a poor family and was promoted through the imperial examination, frowned subconsciously.

Although Wang Zhifu is not the nerd who knows how to study hard, Wang Hua's degrading behavior still subconsciously displeases him.

The four treasures of the study, pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Although paper only ranks third, it is actually the fastest consumed and most expensive of the four treasures.

Some people are so extravagant that they use good rice paper to wipe...
