The Head of the Ming Dynasty Spared His Life

Yan Song: "By the way, how is your investigation about Yangzhou's thin horse?"

Gai Nie's face was gloomy: "It's very serious, because the trend of thin horses is prevalent, even those who are a little richer are raising them... and those who sell their daughters have no choice, because they are too poor and can only sell their daughters... ...Last year's catastrophe, there were many victims, it was a feast in Yangzhou at that time, I heard that more than 1000 girls and children were traded in one day, all of them were raising skinny horses..."

Yan Song sighed, Yan Song couldn't deal with the Yangzhou skinny horse, because it was only natural for poor people to sell their daughters to live, and it was legal and reasonable for rich businessmen to buy girls~children.

This is cruel ancient times.

……

On the third day, the fleet arrived 10 kilometers away from Yangzhou in high spirits.

It is an hour away from Yangzhou.

This time is 10 hours earlier than the expected arrival time of four days, which shows that the entire fleet is looking forward to Yangzhou.

On the day of Jiajing, it was rare to come out of the monastery to bask in the sun.

He stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the beautiful scenery on both sides of the river: "It's a pity, everyone said that the fireworks will go down in Yangzhou in March, but now the time is wrong, it's too late..."

Although Jiajing said so, the excitement on his face could not be concealed.Standing next to Jiajing, Yan Song couldn't help laughing when he saw Jiajing's appearance.

"Yan Aiqing, you said Yangzhou, is it as prosperous as the capital?"

Yan Song smiled slightly and said: "Your Majesty, it is rumored that Yangzhou has gathered all the wealth and wealth in the world, and the degree of prosperity must not be inferior to that of Jingshi 357. I heard that even the common people in Yangzhou have money to raise Yangzhou skinny horses. This is a fortune. Big expenses, how can you do it if you don't have good economic conditions?"

Jiajing laughed: "Yan Aiqing is right."

Yan Song cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, you have been tired during this time. When you arrive in Yangzhou, those officials must have prepared exquisite gardens, as well as delicious food and beauties, waiting for your arrival."

After being described by Yan Song, Jiajing couldn't help yearning for it.

After holding back for so long, after arriving in Yangzhou, I must be able to relax.

An hour later...

Yangzhou City is far away.

Jiajing thought of a picture in his mind.

At this time, the Yangzhou Water Transport Wharf had a grand atmosphere, with flags fluttering, gongs and drums blaring, clear water was sprinkled, and the surroundings were covered with yellow curtains and so on. Ten thousand people welcomed...

Jiajing's eyes blossomed with a smile.

Soon, the boat arrived.

The pier is close at hand.

Jiajing's smiling face was gone, like an iceberg of ten thousand years, gloomy and dark.

The accompanying ministers were sweating one by one.

Humiliation!This is a humiliation to Jiajing!

Chapter 206 Yangzhou is Poor~~ [3]

"See the emperor, long live the emperor, long live!"

Ye Daji, the prefect of Yangzhou, and dozens of people knelt down on the ground, shouting long live.

However, Jiajing was not happy at all.

Everything in front of me is deserted.

What kind of banners are flying, gongs and drums are loud, and everyone is welcoming, these expected things are not at all, but a dilapidated county, as if a group of Japanese pirates ransacked here yesterday.

clang~~

At this moment, on a building next to the pier, a broken plaque was smashed down, and finally decayed and smashed to pieces, as if to tell that Yangzhou is really poor.

Whether it is on the boat or on the shore, everything is quiet.

Jiajing's face was dark, and the anger in his heart was almost about to explode.He felt a great humiliation, shouldn't Yangzhou be the most prosperous place?Why did it become so dilapidated?Is this a demonstration against yourself?

He didn't care about Jackie Chan before, after all, the historian had already recorded all this. He is a wise monarch, so he had to be generous.But this Yangzhou, he is not going to let it go.

From the capital, Hebei, Shandong, to Huai'an, Jiajing already felt that he was going crazy.

"I am the emperor, if you deceive me like this, it is simply a crime of deceiving the emperor!"

Ye Daji felt the icy gaze of that majestic figure on the boat, like a sharp arrow shot at his forehead, and his back was shi~ pierced. At this moment, he was terrified by his bold behavior.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, if Yu Jackie can be spared and get a reward, then I will be able to get through it safely."

Although comforting himself so much, Ye Daji found himself getting more and more flustered.He didn't know that the reason why Yu Chenglong was spared was because Yan Song said good things in front of Jiajing, and Jiajing was not as aggrieved at that time as he is now. Some things cannot be repeated after the first time.

At this time, Jiajing's fists were clenched tightly, turning blue and white, and his face was even more distorted and ferocious, obviously already mad with anger.

Yan Song looked at the magistrate of Yangzhou in the distance, and was really surprised by his audacity. Jiajing, who was so good at fooling his face, was a slap in the face of Jiajing.

Yan Song thought for a while, and leaned in front of Jiajing: "Your Majesty, there is definitely something wrong with Yangzhou. The magistrate must be guilty of doing this. He has something to hide from His Majesty. I feel that His Majesty not only cannot retreat, but should take a good look at what tricks they are playing`" . "

After all, Jiajing is a person with a very deep city, otherwise it would be impossible to defeat the civil servant group at the beginning of his ascension to the throne, so he quickly hid the fierceness in his heart.Just like what Yan Aiqing said, these people must be guilty of doing this, why don't I cooperate with them in such a play.

Jiajing showed a smile: "It seems that this magistrate has comprehended my holy intention of diligence and frugality very well. Very well, gentlemen, let's go. Let's stay in Yangzhou for a few days. Let's take a look at this Yangzhou. What went wrong, why did a prosperous Yangzhou become so dilapidated?"

Many ministers felt chills when they heard it. Obviously, the vicious Jiajing who watched the empress being burned alive back then had returned.
