Chapter 880: Settlement

"Not a talented person!"

This thought came to everyone's hearts, and at the same time, they gradually became less nervous. King Yu and Luo Xin walked forward, and Zhou Yu and eight others followed behind, looking at King Yu holding Luo Xin's arm, they were both envious and happy.

When he entered the lobby, the wine and food came up like flowing water. During the meal, King Yu naturally said touching words, Zhou Yu and others also said loyal words. Luo Xin intertwined between King Yu and everyone, and soon pushed the atmosphere to **.

They were filled with joy, but at this time they were nervous in Yuxi Palace.

Because Emperor Jiajing was settled the accounts.

Luo Xin returned to the capital and met Emperor Jiajing for the first time, and reported everything about the Maritime Warrior to Emperor Jiajing. He vaguely pointed out that the Maritime Warrior was still in his childhood, and he was not relieved to leave at this time. Later, 6 Bing vaguely pointed out the affair between Zhang Shijie and Xu Jie, which made Emperor Jiajing full of vigilance.

The Maritime Warrior was the lifeblood of Emperor Jiajing. Now the entire Ming Dynasty's financial situation relies on the Maritime Warrior Office. With the Maritime Warrior Office at that, the Jiajing Emperor was in the mood to live a life of cultivation. Therefore, after half a year passed, Emperor Jiajing asked the Maritime Warrior Office to send the income and account books for the past six months.

At this time, in the hall, ten eunuchs sat on both sides of a long desk, each with an account book and an abacus in front of each other. Ten eunuchs were quickly calculating the abacus. The sound of your abacus beads colliding was like a big bead falling on a jade plate, and everyone was fully focused.

I dare not be immersed in my heart, because after the imperial calligraphy case, Emperor Jiajing sat there and looked at them.

Behind the ten eunuchs who were settled accounts, there was a small eunuch standing each. Whenever an eunuch finished a book of accounts and wrote down the results, the small eunuchs behind would send the results to the imperial desk of Emperor Jiajing.

Emperor Jiajing looked at each one by one, looking very slowly and carefully.

Emperor Jiajing's expression was very calm, but there was no sharp light flashing in his eyes. I don't know when the abacus sound in the hall disappeared, and the last calculation result was sent to Emperor Jiajing's case by the eunuch.

The entire Yuxi Palace suddenly became silent. The ten old eunuchs sat there in a regular manner. Although they had been sitting there for ten consecutive hours to settle accounts, their legs were numb and their hands were sore, they did not dare to move at all. The ten eunuchs also retreated behind the ten eunuchs and stood there honestly. Everyone held their breath and lowered their heads.

Only the sound of Emperor Jiajing looking through the paper in the main hall. After a while, Emperor Jiajing said in a calm voice:

"But Japanese pirates appeared again at sea this year?"

Huang Jin immediately said softly: "When you go back to your Majesty, there were Japanese pirates on the sea, and it was a fierce fight."

"Oh?" Emperor Jiajing frowned: "What is Hu Zongxian doing?"

"Your Majesty, although the Japanese pirates on the sea are very fierce, they have not affected our Ming Dynasty. In fact, we don't know if they are Japanese pirates. Now a group of people occupy an island called Taiwan, and their power is expanding very quickly. Now they are attacking Ryukyu. The Prince of Ryukyu has arrived in our Ming Dynasty and ask our Ming Dynasty to send troops to help them."

"Huh?" Emperor Jiajing raised his eyebrows: "Then have they robbed ships on the seas of various vassal states?"

"According to the news we have received, there is no. Moreover, Taiwan is open to various vassal states, and those vassal states have now regarded Taiwan as a transit station."

"In this way, the wars at sea have no effect on the Maritime Division?"

"yes!"

"Why did the tariffs submitted by the Maritime Bureau be reduced by one third? I remember that when Luo Xin was still in the Maritime Bureau, the tariffs for half a year were more than three million taels, but why are there only two million taels now? Since the war at sea has no effect on maritime trade, where did the more than one million taels of silver go? Could it be that those vassal states were afraid of the war at sea and stopped for the Ming Dynasty?"

"No!" Huang Jin shook his head and said, "The East Factory has investigated. Now, the merchants of the vassal state who came to the Ming Dynasty are 20% more than when Luo Xin was in the southeast."

"Haha..." Emperor Jiajing sneered twice: "It's strange that 20% of the merchants have more money, but they don't have more money. Does Zhang Shijie have no explanation? What about his memorial?"

"It should be in the cabinet, and it has not been sent here yet."

"Go and get it!" Emperor Jiajing raised his voice.

"I'll go now."

Huang Jin quietly withdrew from Yuxi Palace and headed towards the cabinet.

"You guys go down."

The eunuchs left quietly, and only Emperor Jiajing was left in Yuxi Palace. Suddenly, Emperor Jiajing's eyes showed anger and his chest was fluttering violently. It took more than ten breaths before Emperor Jiajing slowly calmed down and murmured in a low voice:

"Isn't there anyone in the entire Ming Dynasty who can match Luo Xin? He doesn't need to be like Luo Xin, who can govern the country with literature, can maintain national affairs, and can manage finances like Luo Xin."

In fact, the situation that Emperor Jiajing most hoped was that there were three people, who had the ability to govern the country by literature, martial arts, and financial management. In this way, he could reuse three people at the same time, and could use the three people to check and balance each other. How could he have to be on guard against Luo Xin now?

"well……"

When Emperor Jiajing sounded Luo Xin, he couldn't help but feel a headache. Now Luo Xin has fought south and north, and has wiped out the Ming Dynasty. There is no war, and there is no need for talents who can maintain the country. At least it is not needed now.

As for governing the country!

Who governs the country differently?

It was because Xu Jie and Gao Gong were in a hurry to govern the country, and Emperor Jiajing also trained Zhang Juzheng, which was not a must.

Therefore, the Ming Dynasty does not need Luo Xin in both civil and military aspects, which is also the reason why Emperor Jiajing dared to kill Luo Xin.

but……

The Ming Dynasty lacked financial management people!

At that time, the salaries of officials from the Ming Dynasty were not released, and they were in danger. However, at this time, Luo Xin stood up and successfully solved the financial problems of the Ming Dynasty.

This forced Emperor Jiajing to become dependent on Luo Xin and suppressed his murderous intention toward Luo Xin.

Originally, I thought that the Maritime Warrior had already taken the right path. Even if there was no Luo Xin, the Maritime Warrior could still perfectly solve the financial problems of the Ming Dynasty, so Emperor Jiajing decisively called Luo Xin back.

Luo Xin had already had a strong appeal in the north, and he could not let Luo Xin establish his own reputation in the south. If Luo Xin was allowed to establish his same reputation as the north in the south, would the Ming Dynasty still have the surname Zhu?

but……

He never expected that Luo Xin had come back honestly, but in just half a year, the tariff was reduced by more than one million taels.
