    After visiting Jia Lian, he set off to return to his hometown. The weather was hot and Jia Mu's body could not be kept for a long time, so he returned to Jinling to join Jia Daishan in the grave and buried her as soon as possible.

    Sister Feng ordered several large carts of things to be packed, mainly the children's things, because the children only have half a year to pay filial piety, and when the time comes for the children to pay filial piety, Sister Feng will not be able to get rid of their filial piety, so she brought everything with her to avoid not being able to buy it in time.  .

    This time, Jia Lian took Brother Chu back to Jinling to give Princess An Ning a cold shoulder. If An Ning falls in love with someone else this year, it would be best for the Jia family to escape.

    To be honest, Jia Lian is currently in a high and powerful position, and it is not a good thing to try to get married to the emperor. The prosperity and decline will continue for a long time.

    After Jia Lian returned to Jinling, while performing rituals for Jia's mother, he also invited eminent monks to come and bury his grandparents together.  A hundred days later, the two elders were officially buried together.

    Jia pardoned Jia Zheng and kept filial piety at the cemetery. This time the two brothers stopped arguing and taught their grandson to read together.

    Jialan Jiawei¡¯s level is higher than that of their grandfather, and with Baoyu as a prodigy by their side, they can only fool Jie Geer and Hao Geer.

    Or teach Sister Qiao and Sister Qian.

    And Sister Qiao and Sister Qian prefer to study with Baoyu, because Baoyu¡¯s teachings are interesting and novel.

    On this day, Jia Lian was practicing martial arts with his three sons to test their eight-step cicada-catching skill. When he received a letter from Prince Teng, it was Emperor Jiakang who sent two governors of Fujian and Zhejiang to Fujian and Zhejiang to supervise the implementation of this year's new tax system.

    ??Among them, the governor of Zhejiang is a descendant of Zhang's uncle, but the governor of Fujian is the nephew of the clan's auxiliary Duke and a Jinshi in the twelfth year of Qianyuan.

    Jia Lian didn't smile at all. It seemed that Emperor Jiakang didn't want Prince Teng to take the throne.

    In other words, Emperor Jiakang wanted to see if others could smooth out the new policies in Fujian and Zhejiang.

    Jia Lian wrote two words to Wang Ziteng: "Let go!"

    Before this, Jia Lian had already written to Wang Ziteng, telling him that he recommended Wang Ziteng to act as the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang.

    Wang Ziteng has held this position more than once and is completely familiar with it, but Emperor Jiakang wants to cultivate new people.

    After receiving the letter, Wang Ziteng understood that his glory in the Jiakang Dynasty was no longer, so he accepted Jia Lian's suggestion and went to the Emperor Jiakang to beg for his remains.

    This is also in compliance with the wishes of Emperor Jiakang, giving up the position of Fujian and Zhejiang to make way for newcomers.

    When the new governors of Fujian and Zhejiang provinces took office, they encountered the autumn harvest, which was very lively now.

    Those gangsters in Fujian and Zhejiang who were accustomed to tax evasion knew that Jia Lian had resigned, but the emperor did not send Prince Teng to defend Jia Lian's position in Fujian and Zhejiang, thinking that if Jia Lian died, the sea would change!

    Those who missed the mark last year but did not dare to say anything about tax resistance will now see hope and feel that the transition between the old and the new is the most chaotic. The time has come for them to make a name for themselves.

    These officials hinted at the local local tyrants and evil gentry. They all met together to discuss and beat their chests one by one. Last year, Jia Lian dug out millions of dollars, which made them afraid to fight and show off their wealth.  This year can't be like this again. We must work hard to save not only half of the tax, but at least half.

    The local tyrants and evil gentry also made a wish to these government offices that took the lead in resisting the tax. As long as they succeeded, they were willing to donate half of it for these officials to enjoy.

    "Thousands of miles away, I am an official just for money. How can I be like Jia Lian, who is only 250 years old? I am an official only for political achievements. I don't make money, don't whore women, and don't fight for wealth and enjoy life. My life is simply in vain!"

    But they didn¡¯t expect that everything they did was something Jia Lian was tired of, and they even lost their lives because of it.  It was only in this life that I looked down upon it.

    In October, memorials from Fujian and Zhejiang flew to Kyoto like snowflakes. Among them was a good news memorial from the governor, saying that the autumn harvest in Fujian and Zhejiang would be bountiful. Let Emperor Jiakang wait for the money to be put into the treasury.

    The taxable money this year will definitely be more than last year.

    Last year, Jia Lian specified a tax rate of two-tenths. This year, in the third year after the Fourth War, they increased the tax rate to three-tenths.

    This made the local tyrants and evil gentry who were already resisting the tax even more determined to cause trouble.

    At the same time, they are still making a fuss about the communes and warehouses, thinking that the commissaries and warehouses are already sufficient, and this year the revenue from the government's sloping lands and riverbanks can go directly into the state treasury.

    This measure has greatly harmed the broad proletariat, that is, those tenant farmers and farm laborers, as well as those lonely widowers living in nursing homes, whose livelihood mainly depends on the supply of communal warehouses.

    The two governors' complacent report looking forward to the future had just been handed over to the cabinet; Zhang's uncle was secretly scolding his nephew for being too impatient and was about to withhold the memorial and write a letter asking him to cancel the tax increase, when the storm of tax resistance in Fujian and Zhejiang suddenly broke out.

    ?This time, eight of the eighteen prefectures in Fujian and Zhejiang have united to resist the tax, while ten prefects are still waiting and watching.

    Eight prefects jointly submitted a letter to the court, saying that although this year's harvest was not reduced, it was no better than last year.  Last year they tightened their belts and returned everything to their warehouses. If they add taxes this year, they really can't survive.

    As early as when the two governors were increasing taxes, Jia Yun, who had been sent back to the coastal areas early by Jia Lian to lurk, sent back information.

    Jia Lian expected that this would happen.  He informed Wang Ziteng to evacuate the sea area immediately and go to the northern area to inspect military affairs.  Because Emperor Jiakang has not yet approved Wang Ziteng's memorial.

    Wang Ziteng left in time. Only five days after he left the sea area with his majestic gong, the tax resistance crisis in Fujian and Zhejiang broke out.

    Those local tyrants and evil gentry also incited the people who had lost their lease qualifications to surround the governor's office and demand an answer from the governor.

    The report of the secret stake of the General Affairs Department of Fujian and Zhejiang flew like snowflakes towards the Dragon Case of Emperor Jiakang in Kyoto: mutiny is about to break out!

    Emperor Jiakang was a little dumbfounded.

    Urgently recruit the cabinet and auxiliary minister Prince Xi to discuss matters.

    Prince Xi has been ignored for a long time, and he didn't say a word when he came.

    This time, Uncle Zhang really had his teeth knocked out and drank blood. Governor Zhang was the former Minister of War.

    He and Jia Rong were tit for tat. Uncle Zhang was afraid of internal energy consumption, so he recommended him to leave the capital. He thought that Jia Lian had already spread out the table and he went to pick up the bowl to eat. What couldn't he do?

    Another person who is deeply disturbed is Prince Xi.  That clan member was recommended by him.

    At the time, Emperor Jiakang agreed because he wanted to reconcile with his clan members and give Prince Xi face, thereby vetoing Prince Teng's decision to temporarily act as governor of Fujian and Zhejiang.

    Who would have expected that such a small change would lead to such a mess.

    Prince Xi did not dare to remain silent at this time and suggested: "Prince Teng is in Fujian and Zhejiang. You haven't approved his retirement plan yet, so leave it to him."

    Uncle Zhang shook his head: "Three days ago, the cabinet received a memorial from Wang Ziteng, saying that there seemed to be something strange happening among the hunting tribes in the north. He had already left for inspection in the north."

    Prince Xi¡¯s face turned livid: ¡°Jia Lian supervises the military affairs of the sea, has His Majesty the Governor-General not taken back his seal?¡±

    Emperor Jiakang said: "He is Ding You, and he has not resigned from office. Naturally, his official seal is still in the governor's office."

    Prince Xi breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. There is no good way at the moment. His Majesty issued an order quickly, ordering Jia Lian to resurrect his love, and to go to his post as soon as possible to adjust the situation in the sea area. Jia Lian must be resurrected immediately. The people in the sea area have strong morals. Chi Ze  Change!"

    Emperor Jiakang felt extremely cowardly. He only tried a little bit of testing, but it caused a huge disturbance. In the end, he had to rely on Prince Xi to deal with the aftermath.

    Emperor Jiakang was also flexible and flexible. Perhaps he was also disappointed with his uncle Zhang. He immediately bowed to Prince Xi and said, "Thank you, Uncle Wang. From now on, Uncle Wang, please come back to the cabinet to help your nephew."

    Prince Xi received a courtesy from the emperor's nephew and felt calm, and immediately agreed to return to the cabinet as a second assistant.

    Prince Xi, the clan representative, easily entered the center of power again.

    "Uncle Zhang just feels a toothache. Can he convince Prince Xi, a prince?"

    "You have no words to joke, and Uncle Zhang can only smile bitterly."

    At the same time that Jia Lian received the imperial edict of Duo Qingqi and Restoration, he also learned that Prince Xi had entered the cabinet, so he was not surprised.

    Prince Xi is a capable person and understands the general situation. Although his rise will inhibit the power of Qinggui, he actually also shares the influence and coercion of Qinggui on Emperor Jiakang.

    Jia Lian did not object to Prince Xi's coming to power, because Prince Xi did not oppose the New Deal. He just felt that Emperor Jiakang was too impatient and was afraid of causing a popular uprising.

    This time, the changes in the maritime territory also showed that Emperor Jiakang was immature in handling government affairs.

    Emperor Jiakang wanted to take back the rights to the maritime territory, but his thinking was too simple. The transition between the old and the new did not just involve changing people. Jia Lian was willing to help and lead the transition slowly.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT out of his own pocket, Jia Lian spent a lot of money to fight the Japanese pirates. In order to conquer the Fujian and Zhejiang provinces, he used so many connections and conspiracies. How could even a cat or a dog be able to sit still?

    Jia Lian is not in a hurry and wants to return to Beijing to express his gratitude.  But he was stopped by the father-in-law who delivered the message: "Your Majesty said that the governor should immediately leave for Haijiang to resume his duties. The people in Haijiang are boiling with resentment, and they are ready to go without delay."

    Jia Lian had no choice but to kneel down to the north and receive the imperial edict.  On the same day, Jia Lian said goodbye to Jia She and Jia Zheng, entrusted his children to Baoyu's guidance, and led Jia Yun, Jia Ling and his brothers back to the sea.

    On the night when Jia Lian returned to Haijiang, Wang Xin, the secret guard who Wang Ziteng had left in the trading house, found Jia Lian and handed Jia Lian a letter. However, it was Wang Ziteng who handed over his hidden stakes in the two Haijiang provinces to Jia Lian.

    It turned out that in order to detect the movements of Japanese pirates and take the initiative, Wang Ziteng set up many hidden stakes in Fujian and Zhejiang provinces, firstly to collect intelligence, and secondly, to deal with some people who were apparently difficult to deal with for Wangziteng.  or something.

    After the war, these hidden stakes have not been removed, and they are still collecting information from the two provinces for Wang Ziteng.

    For example, the local people's sentiments, the background of local officials and gentry, the actions of local officials, and local customs.  As long as Jia Lian wants to know, the local official can know even if the concubine sleeps in the middle of the night.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)In order to detect the movements of the Japanese pirates and take the initiative, many hidden stakes were set up in Fujian and Zhejiang provinces, firstly to collect intelligence, and secondly, to help Wang Ziteng deal with some people or things that were difficult to deal with on the surface.
