Five hundred and eighteenth palm selection
The hall was silent, and Emperor Jiajing looked at Xu Wei coldly.
Since the first meeting, Qian Yuan showed similar signs in front of Emperor Jiajing, and then he tried to open a maritime ban on trade several times. Last year, he once caused a big storm in the court. Emperor Jiajing knew all this.
Xu Wei licked his lips and continued with courage: "I dare not deceive Your Majesty. I am from the southeast and know the inside story. At that time, Wang Zhi was unable to control him. Xu Hai, Ye Bichuan and other invaded Jiaxing, so that Wang Min should capture Ligang, but Wang Zhi never attacked the border after that.
If the war with Wang Zhi means that the court will definitely refuse to open a maritime ban and trade, and Wang Zhi will not be able to control it. A large number of maritime pirates will become Japanese pirates, and the war in the southeast will not stop for ten years."
"Ten years will not stop?" Emperor Jiajing snorted.
Qian Yuan mentioned in his secret letter that this is the sentence that most touches Emperor Jiajing.
The war in the southeast has lasted for five years, and it consumed a lot of food and money. Hu Zongxian added several provinces to intercept salt taxes... so much that the government was short of money and mice in the empty warehouse of the Ministry of Revenue were going to beg for food, and the internal transportation warehouse could not withstand it. Emperor Jiajing wanted to get the silver from Taicang... The Minister of Revenue Fang Dun didn't stop it, because the Taicang silver warehouse had no money anyway.
In this case, Emperor Jiajing thought of quelling the Japanese turmoil in the southeast as quickly as possible, so that Zhejiang, Fujian, Susong and other places in the Ming Dynasty could continue to transfusion blood to the court.
Therefore, recruiting Wang Zhi and quelling the Japanese turmoil was the fastest way.
It would be fine if he had started a war with Wang Zhi, but if he had won quickly, it would be unbearable for Emperor Jiajing.
"This is a killer!" Emperor Jiajing threw away the teacup he was playing with in anger, turned over and walked back and forth, "I think he is a little loyal, and I rewarded a Shuji Shi. If I don't stay in the Hanlin Academy, I have to go to the southeast!"
Other things may be a bit confused, but Huang Jin can best understand the thoughts of Emperor Jiajing. He was also sighing slightly. The sea ban was banned and traded... It is easy to say, but it is too difficult to do. The censors in the court would excitedly drown Qian Yuan with their spits.
Qian Yuan could have been qualified in the Hanlin Academy. Jian would be able to stay in the hall after three years of Emperor Xin. He didn't need to ascend the throne to King Yu, and he might be able to join the Zhan Shi Mansion. When the new king ascends the throne and becomes directly promoted to the six ministries, he can see the position of Minister of the Secretariat at the age of thirty.
If you don’t go to Tongtian Avenue, you have to take the path of thorny intestines, and it’s a path full of thorns.
Xu Wei did not expect that Emperor Jiajing's eyes were like a torch, and he could see the real reason why Qian Yuan and Hu Zongxian had a slight slightest disagreement, which was related to Qian Yuan's several remarks on the benefits of maritime trade in front of Emperor Jiajing.
But Xu Wei’s more than a year of dog licking has not been in vain!
"Share your worries." Xu Wei, kneeling on the ground, stood up straight, with a stern look. "Zhan Cai said last year that he still never regretted even though he died nine times."
Emperor Jiajing stopped and cursed: "Even though he died, he still never regrets it... It sounds good and useless!"
"If you recruit Wang Zhi and open a sea ban on trade... Once the Japanese pirates rise again, all the court will impeach him, even I will not be able to protect him!"
This is certain. If the sea ban is opened and trade is banned and the Japanese pirates still invade the coastal areas in large numbers, Qian Yuan will definitely be the subject of thousands of people. If Wang Zhi becomes a Japanese pirate, Qian Yuan... will be dismissed from office and returned home.
Xu Wei naturally thought clearly about the obstacles. He smiled bitterly and whispered: "Shencai is determined and determined... trade, bandits turn into business, ban seas, and merchants turn into bandits."
"Since the 32nd year of Jiajing, Zhan has only been fighting against Japanese pirates for less than ten times, and the guards around him have suffered heavy casualties. He often sacrifices to the heads of the Japanese pirates with a hundred times. If he hadn't been helpless, how could he have tried to take a pacification plan?"
Well, Qian Yuan actually thought more about opening the lock of the sea ban and having some communication with the West through Wang Zhi, and he did not think that Wang Zhi was a serious Japanese pirate.
"In the 34th year of Jiajing, Huayin Dilong turned over, countless casualties, disaster victims wailed, and the Ministry of Revenue had no money to provide disaster relief. Zhan Cai and his uncle hugged their heads in the mansion and cried bitterly."
This is a bit nonsense. Qian Yuan rushed out of Wanshou Palace with Emperor Jiajing that day. He got a great lottery and rubbed it a few times when he went back tonight!
Still holding your head and crying?
Crying!
But Emperor Jiajing's face slowed down, and he remembered the scene when Qian Yuan hugged him that day... It was from then on that time that in his mind, the image of this young scholar gradually matched Lu Bing, and Lu Bing had done the same thing.
After all, the greatest achievements are to save the driver.
"In February this year, the three halls were burned down, and the Ministry of Revenue could not continue. The reconstruction was nowhere to be achieved. The development was far away. The development was also far away..."
"Okay!" Emperor Jiajing shouted fiercely, "I became a Jinshi last year and entered the official career for less than two years. However, the seventh-rank inspector censor... I don't know that he thought he was the chief minister of the cabinet!"
The position of a low person is worried about major events. This is the always nature of a scholar-official official. Xu Wei immediately thought of his brother-in-law, Shen Lian and Shen Qingxia.
In the 29th year of Jiajing, during the Gengxu Rebellion, Altan threatened Kyoto, and the ministers were reluctant to do so. The Jinyiwei experienced the experience of Shen Lian was passionate and was in charge of fighting without tribute. He whispered: "The ministers do not speak, so the minor officials say it."
Just as Xu Wei was about to speak, Huang Jin beside Emperor Jiajing raised his head quietly, handed over his eyes, and shook his head slightly to indicate.
Qian Yuan naturally did some preparations secretly by stuffing Xu Wei into the West Garden, or by Emperor Jiajing... After all, Xu Wei's temperament and mouth are too easy to offend people, and sometimes he wished he could use a needle to sew his mouth.
Xu Wei was favored by Qing's poems, but he did not get involved in the battle between Fenyi and Huating. In the Xiyuan, Qian Yuan focused on Huang Jin.
Huang Jin not only held a high position, but also in charge of the eunuch in the Sili Supervisor and was in charge of the Dongchang, but was also the only eunuch who could influence Emperor Jiajing.
At the critical moment, Huang Jin's eyes made Xu Wei stop.
Before Xu Wei could figure it out, Emperor Jiajing snorted coldly and continued: "Pursuing Wang Zhi, will the Japanese invasions in the southeast stop?"
"The large number of Japanese pirates are cut off, and small number of Japanese pirates may still be able to cause trouble." Xu Wei said honestly: "But the Japanese turmoil on the coast of Susong in Zhejiang can basically be pacified. The messenger sent by Zhan Cai to deliver a message, perhaps small number of Japanese pirates will invade Fujian and Guangdong."
Emperor Jiajing paced back and forth, his eyes flashing.
Is it possible for Hu Zongxian to succeed in one battle?
Will the troubles left behind when pursuing Wang Zhi?
If the maritime ban is opened, the court will inevitably be in chaos, and the Ministry of Revenue may strongly agree, but the censors of the Kedao will inevitably impeach, and internal officials will inevitably compete with the outside court... Thinking about these things, Emperor Jiajing had a headache.
As an emperor, at this time, he would never consider Qian Yuan himself, but only consider the direction of the court...
Huang Jin looked at Emperor Jiajing's face and turned around and asked with a smile: "Wen Chang, Zhan Cai was not injured in this battle, right? It's scary to listen to it, and he went on the battle himself several times... Uh, the emperor, I want to ask Xiao Hei..."
"Didn't you have all given birth to a litter of cubs?" Emperor Jiajing snorted, "Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xu Wei stood up and said, "The Qian family guards suffered about 30% of their casualties in this battle, and Zhan Cai himself was not injured."
"Is the Qian family's guard really so elite?" Huang Jin asked curiously: "It seems that Zhan Cai uses guards as his pioneer every battle."
"The Southeast Consensus, the Qian family guards are elite armored in the southeast." Xu Wei said proudly, and quickly explained: "Your Majesty, there are only a hundred guards of the Qian family. It was only after the Zhanshi was transferred to the Zhejiang inspection before he was able to match the armor."
Emperor Jiajing slid his lips slightly, waved his sleeves and said, "Go out, call the cabinet, the Ministry of War."
Xu Wei withdrew at a loss, feeling uneasy, and had no clear and hinted, and drove himself out directly. What does this mean?
Liang Wen and Zhou Ji sent not only two letters, but also Qian Yuan's oral letters, first of all, to recruit Wang Zhi, and secondly, to open a ban on trade.
There is no need to make a big fuss, but Xu Wei needs to cross the road in front of Emperor Jiajing and explore the wind... This is also a major purpose for Qian Yuan to push Xu Wei to the side of Emperor Jiajing.
Although he is extremely smart and has a very high understanding, Xu Wei has only been in office for less than two years. This mystery was solved until the night when he met Qian Rui.
Qian Rui has been in the officialdom for a long time, and has been on a cold bench in the Hanlin Academy, the Censorate, and has been in all six subjects. He has even been a local official. He is not unfamiliar with these tricks.
But Qian Yuan was in a bad mood.
"It means opening a ban on trade."
"Not acquiesce."
"If the Japanese pirates do not rise up and the court will benefit, they will naturally be happy."
Xu Wei finally understood, "If the Japanese pirates rekindled, then Zhan Cai..."
Qian Rui didn't say anything else. Emperor Jiajing might agree with Qian Yuan's judgment, but if the sea ban is not smooth and the matter is repeated, Qian Yuan will be thrown out mercilessly.
The two were speechless in the stuffy study for a long time. The biggest reason why Qian Yuan was able to get along with Yan Song and Xu Jie was that he was simply in the emperor's heart.
