Luo Xin smiled bitterly and said, "Who knows the result before the palace examination has arrived? Brother Taiyue takes it too seriously."
Zhang Juzheng shook his head and his expression suddenly became dim. Luo Xin asked tactfully:
"Why is Brother Taiyue sad?"
"Ah..." Zhang Juzheng sighed lightly: "In fact, joining Hanlin is not as beautiful as imagined?"
"Oh? Why?"
"Why?" Zhang Juzheng smiled bitterly, "You can tell if you look at me. I have been in the Hanlin Academy for nearly twenty years. I only drink tea and drink tea all day long, just like eating and waiting to die. However, those who were not as high as mine were given out in the same year, and they lived a more enjoyable life than me."
Luo Xin was silent. He knew that this was Zhang Juzheng complaining, so it was difficult to respond. Zhang Juzheng glanced at Luo Xin and said:
"I live carefully every day, for fear that those big guys will suffer the battle. I am really trembling as if I were walking on thin ice!"
Speaking of this, Zhang Juzheng's eyes suddenly lit up. He looked at Luo Xin and smiled inexplicably, which made Luo Xin's heart tighten, and there was a slight feeling of badness. Zhang Juzheng lowered his voice and said:
"No, the time for you to enter the court is not very good. At this time, the court is surging with fans!"
"Hmm?" Luo Xin was stunned and bowed to Zhang Juzheng and said, "Please give me some advice from Brother Taiyue."
Zhang Juzheng was silent for a while and said, "You have pacified the grasslands in the north, and now only the Japanese pirates in the southeast are left. There is a voice in the court now."
Speaking of this, Zhang Juzheng lowered his voice again: "We want to open the sea."
"Open the sea?"
Luo Xin's heart jumped. He suddenly remembered that Emperor Jiajing had asked him about the southeast in the imperial study, and he was vaguely passing by. It seemed that Emperor Jiajing also knew that the extermination of the current Japanese pirates was only short-term peace. As long as the sea was forbidden, new Japanese pirates would come out.
"Yes, some in the court now agree with opening the sea, while others oppose opening the sea. The competition is very fierce. You, a famous general who pacified the grassland, are a new generation of great scholars. When you enter the court, you cannot escape this vortex."
Luo Xin couldn't help but rub the teeth. What Zhang Juzheng said made a lot of sense. He couldn't escape the whirlpool. Emperor Jiajing pointed to the Japanese pirates in the imperial study, probably because he wanted to be prepared in his heart. Although he did not point it out directly, this is probably because Emperor Jiajing wanted to test Luo Xin's understanding.
What a headache!
Luo Xin suddenly lost the interest in drinking tea with Zhang Juzheng. Can he, a rookie who has just entered the court, participate in this kind of storm?
Luo Xin went home with his brows frown. Zhou Yu and others saw Luo Xin coming back so late and tightening their brows, and they couldn't help but squeeze into Luo Xin's study one by one.
"What happened?"
Luo Xin then met Zhang Juzheng today and said Zhang Juzheng's words to them. Tao Xingyan slapped the armrest of the chair and said:
"What's there to worry about? If you don't have the means to take charge, I will go to the southeast and kill all the Japanese pirates."
Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "What I am not worried about is not the Japanese pirates, but about the opening of the sea."
"What does this have to do with us?" Tao Xingyan spread his hands and said, "This is the matter of those cabinet bosses, we are the newcomers at the bottom..."
Speaking of this, Tao Xingyan suddenly stopped and looked at Luo Xin. At this time, everyone in the study also looked at Luo Xin. Zhou Yu rubbed his teeth and said to Luo Xin:
"No, your prospects are worrying!"
At this time, everyone in the study understood Luo Xin's situation. Luo Xin was different from them. Emperor Jiajing really had a great chance of pulling Luo Xin into this vortex. And they couldn't help, who made them too low?
Neither a famous general nor a great scholar!
Hai Zheng grabbed his hair and smiled bitterly: "It seems that there is also benefits if there is no reputation or status!"
Everyone smiled unnaturally. The eyes of Luo Xin looked at Luo Xin were filled with worry. However, Luo Xin's heart suddenly moved and looked at everyone in front of him and said:
"You may not be able to avoid this vortex!"
Everyone looked terrified, and based on their understanding of Luo Xin, they all knew that Luo Xin never said anything. Luo Xin looked at them and said:
"What if the palace examination questions are this whirlpool?"
Everyone's body was shocked and their faces became bad. Everyone frowned and thought hard, but the more they thought about it, the more anxious they became. Zhou Yu picked up the teacup and took a sip of cold tea. His dizzy mind cleared up and lowered the teacup and said:
"Let's analyze first, is it better to open the sea?"
"Of course!" Yun Zhiqiu said angrily: "Now, most of the land in the Ming Dynasty is occupied by the powerful and powerful. The Ming Dynasty does not receive much tax from the land. If it does not open the sea, I am afraid that the court will even publish our salary. Throughout history, the change of dynasties is related to this."
Everyone was silent and knew that Yun Zhiqiu was completely correct. If he wanted to redistribute the land, he would offend the entire Ming Dynasty's powerful families. Even if the emperor offends all the powerful families, he would have to be driven off the throne, which might cause turmoil in the entire Ming Dynasty.
Zhang Juzheng's whip was actually destined to be unable to succeed from the beginning.
In this way, there is only open source, and this open source is open sea.
Zhou Yu looked at Luo Xin and said, "No, what do you think?"
Luo Xin said bitterly: "This is the only way to rescue the Ming Dynasty at present. Have you ever thought about why so many people oppose the opening of the sea?"
"Of course, it is the powerful families who colluded with Japanese pirates and smuggled in large quantities. Once the sea is opened, we cannot monopolize the maritime trade. In this way, they will not lose a little bit, so they will naturally have to oppose it strongly." Zhang Xun said loudly.
"This is the vortex!" Luo Xin said softly.
"No, do you agree with Kaihai or not?" Liu Xiuwen stared at Luo Xin with a bright look.
"Of course I agree. The ideal of our ZTE Society is to revive the Ming Dynasty, and opening the sea is the only way. But... it is not the time now."
"Why?" everyone asked in confusion: "Since the court has begun to argue about this matter, it means that Your Majesty has the determination to open the sea. We are not wrong to follow Your Majesty, right? It's just right to use this to assist Your Majesty, cleanse the world and revive the Ming Dynasty."
"Do you still remember Zeng Xian?" Luo Xin asked softly.
Everyone was silent when they heard this.
Zeng Xian was the Minister of War at the time of the Three Borders. During the long-term fight against northern Mongolia, he discovered that the reason why the Mongols robbed and left as much as they wanted was that the court lost the important strategic location of the Hetao region. If the Ming Dynasty owned Hetao, it would have a bridgehead to block Mongolia. So Zeng Butang wrote a letter to conquer Hetao, calling it "This once-and-for-all strategy is the reliance of the country for all generations!"
