The eldest son is fierce

The position of Jingzhao Prefecture Governor is very important, maintaining the security and stability of the entire capital.

But it is also the most difficult and painful position.

Because there are nobles and powerful families everywhere in Kyoto, any case may involve noble families, important officials in the court, and even princes and emperors.

When the time comes, I will ask you to give me face. Will you give it?

If we give face, then the case will not be fair and just, and the victim will have no way to seek justice.

If you don't give me face, you can forget about getting the position of Jingzhao prefect.

It may even involve a wide range of people.

Emperor Yanwen jumped more than ten levels and threw him into this position. Tang Yi would never believe that there was no conspiracy.

Tang Yi guessed right.

Emperor Yanwen naturally put him in this position after careful consideration. He liked Tang Yi's spirit, his courage to fight and fight.

But now that this guy is asking me so bluntly, don’t I have any face?

"Don't think of me as so utilitarian, okay? I'm doing this for your own good!" Emperor Yanwen put his hands behind his back and snorted coldly.

Tang Yi: "Haha!"

Emperor Yanwen glared at Tang Yi, and after thinking about it, he felt that it was necessary to reveal some information to prevent this guy from being caught off guard.

"Kyoto is going to be in chaos, and I don't want Kyoto to be in chaos."

"So, I need someone who is unfamiliar to everyone, but also not close to everyone, to sit in this position."

Tang Yi looked at Emperor Yanwen and doubted whether the person he was talking about was himself?

I'm not close to everyone? Who said that? That's because they first regarded me as an enemy.

If they talk to me nicely, they will find that I am very approachable!

"Your Majesty, are you sure you're serious?"

Tang Yi pointed at himself and said, "If I were to sit in this position, would it be possible that... Kyoto would become even more chaotic?"

"Besides, why do I feel like you are using a knife to kill someone?"

"I am now the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture and the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery. Countless ministers in the court are probably eager to kill me right now."

"You've put me in this position now, you're roasting me on the fire."

"The most important thing is that with my temper, I will intervene when I encounter injustice. Do you think I haven't offended enough people?"

Emperor Yanwen was so angry that he laughed, and his analysis was well-reasoned, but do I need to borrow a knife to kill you?

You think too highly of yourself!

"That's quite right. Forget it then. I won't give him the title of Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, nor will I give him the title of Third-Rank Jingzhao Prefecture Governor..."

Emperor Yanwen looked at Chen Diaosi and said, "Pass on my decree. All the rewards previously bestowed upon Tang Yi will be revoked..."

Tang Yi's mouth twitched. Why threaten others when you can't win the argument?

He quickly stopped Emperor Yanwen and said, "No, no, no, no, Your Majesty, your words are not joking. Your Majesty's words are the imperial decree. How can you go back on your word?"

Emperor Yanwen glared at Tang Yi and said righteously, "I really didn't go back on my word. I really think you are suitable to rise step by step."

"Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, and the Prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture, it's all bullshit!"

"Don't worry, for a capable official, it won't take too long to rise from Jinyiwei to the rank of Loyal and Brave Marquis. It'll probably only take fifty years at most!"

"Going from a centurion to the third-rank prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture is even easier, only taking about thirty years."

"It doesn't matter, you are still young and can wait!"

Tang Yi's face stiffened slightly, and he stared at Emperor Yanwen's performance in amazement.

I've been waiting for you for so long! What are you thinking about?

I would spend fifty years fighting for one of your marquises?

Why fifty years? Believe it or not, if I had ambition, give me six months to prepare, I could immediately find a place to start a war, recruit three hundred thousand soldiers in a year, destroy Da Yan in three years, and destroy the six countries surrounding Da Yan in five years.

Fifty years later, perhaps wherever the sun shines will be the territory of Dayan!

But the current emperor is considered a good emperor. He is very good to him and his sister, so this face must be given.

He coughed dryly, held his head high and said, "Your Majesty is wrong. What young people need most is a challenge. How can they retreat when faced with difficulties?"

"I have accepted the position of Jingzhao Prefecture Governor. Your Majesty, rest assured that with me here, Jingdu will remain in order."

"Accepted?" Emperor Yanwen looked at Tang Yi and sneered, "Why? Aren't you afraid it's my conspiracy now?"

In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are in vain!

Conspiracy? Shouldn't conspiracy take a back seat in the face of bombs?

Tang Yi smiled and said, "That was the training given to me by His Majesty. How could I not know what is good for me?"

Emperor Yanwen glanced at Tang Jing, who was lying motionless on the ground in the distance, waved his hand, and asked Chen Diaosi to take people back to mediate the fight, so as to prevent someone from being beaten to death.

After Chen Diaosi left, Emperor Yanwen looked at Tang Yi and said, "Because of war, famine, and the deliberate manipulation of certain people, a large number of refugees are now coming to Kyoto from all directions."

"Combining reports from secret agents and Jinyiwei from various locations, the total number exceeds 100,000."

"One hundred thousand refugees pouring into Kyoto will plunge the already overwhelmed Kyoto into chaos."

"I can give you half a month's delay. After half a month, refugees will continue to pour into Kyoto."

Emperor Yanwen looked at Tang Yi and said, "Before that, I want you to come up with a plan to deal with the refugees and ensure that the capital remains in order..."

At this point, Emperor Yanwen's brows knitted together, and he hesitated to speak. "This matter also involves a secret, but I cannot tell you this secret for the time being, for fear that you would not be able to bear it if you knew it."

"I only hope that this secret will never be used."

Tang Yi was speechless. Now that things have come to this, why are you still playing tricks on me?

Secret? What kind of secret could make an emperor like you so fearful?

"And the case at the Ministry of Revenue cannot be delayed any longer. I am in dire need of money now."

Emperor Yanwen approached Tang Yi and said, "Relax for the next two days. The grand court session will be held in three days. I look forward to your performance at the grand court session!"

After he finished speaking, Emperor Yanwen left with his hands behind his back. The Imperial Court had already come in and surrounded the entire Shen Garden, which meant that the masters of Anjing Tower outside had been almost dealt with.

After the emperor left, the aristocratic families and all the civil and military officials in the court also left Shen Garden one after another under the protection of the Imperial Court.

Even Tang Jing, Yan Shuangyu and others who were beaten horribly were carried back by people sent by the Kong family.

In a short while, only a few people were left in the Luming Lake, which was originally crowded with people.

Tang Yi held down the Embroidered Spring Knife, looked at the backs of the people walking away, and just smiled faintly.

The biggest winner today is not him, but Emperor Yanwen.

Not only did he shock all the civil and military officials in the court, he also eradicated the cancer of Anjinglou in one fell swoop, and sharpened his sword to its sharpest point. It was a great victory!

"Uh, damn, is the emperor stupid?"

Suddenly, Tang Yi thought of something and slapped his forehead and said, "It seems that he hasn't dealt with those ministers who declared that they were no longer loyal to him?"

"Such an important thing? He actually forgot it?"

"It's not that I forgot, I was waiting for you." Kong Shilan's voice came.

Tang Yi looked up and saw Kong Shilan standing not far away, looking at him with a very complicated look.

Tang Yi was a little confused by her stare and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that? You said wait for me? What do you mean?"

Kong Shilan pursed her lips and smiled, saying:

"Your Majesty is not dealing with them now because you are waiting for you to find out about the Ministry of Revenue case. If they are implicated by then, then we will have more reason to punish them. By then, they will be punished for multiple crimes. At the very least, their property will be confiscated and they will be exiled or their entire family will be executed. At the worst, their entire clan will be implicated."

"So, at the grand court three days from now, the lives of many people will depend on you!"
