Chapter 651: Woohoo Sheng

Zheng Enlai does not care much about whether the trip to the West is beneficial to the country, or the act of working the people and losing money, he is only concerned about Zheng He alone, in his opinion, his father has been to the West for the imperial court six times over the years, promoting the prestige of the Ming Dynasty, and the act of appalling the Qinghai Frontier, which has really made a lot of contributions to the imperial court.

Zheng He said for a while, the faint resentment in his heart seemed to have disappeared a lot, his eyes fell on the big nautical chart, and he sighed softly: "There are some things he can't say, the literati belittle the West so much, it's not that it's useless to the country, and a few official words that cost the people and money, these words, in the final analysis, are just the scenes used by the literati to fool the people of the world, the real reason is his identity?"

"A eunuch, in charge of shipping, has soldiers and money, and has great power, and the civil servants are afraid that the eunuchs will break the court. They believe that the Celestial Empire can be self-sufficient, and it is insignificant not to trade with other countries, and it is impossible for a small foreign country to have the ability to ruin the Ming Dynasty, and the eunuchs in power may make the world chaotic, so they try their best to oppose the eunuch-led shipping, in addition, there is also today's saint, this elegant character, the good emperor who advocates accumulating people's strength, leniency and imprisonment, and practicing frugality, has a lot of jealousy against him.

If you want to open the sea, you must have a strong sailor, the big sailor is like a country on the sea, when the majestic and majestic Emperor Yongle, he did not dare to let the literati, the military generals led the team to the Western Ocean, the purpose is not at ease, and the eunuch commands the fleet, the eunuch has no descendants, there is no heart to rip the ground, and it is difficult to establish absolute authority among the soldiers, with them to rest assured, but today's saint, ask himself not Yongle Emperor courage, his trip to the West, everywhere he goes, overseas countries are not submitted, and his ships number more than 20,000 people, most of them are elite soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, huge trade, enough to feed these soldiers, how can the emperor rest assured, his trip to the West, not to work the people and lose moneyIn fact, it is just too much power, which has caused the jealousy in the hearts of the saints today?"

Zheng He thought about it alone for a while, and only felt that those literati were ridiculous, and a sentence of "working the people and hurting the money" could erase the benefits brought by the West, ridiculous, I haven't been to the West all these years, but what happened to the household department of the imperial court, there was a slight flood and drought, and it was difficult to recruit and help the people. The northern expedition to Mengyuan, the use of troops everywhere, the cost of money everywhere, but the people are full, and now it is just to build a Dabao'en Temple that is about to be completed, which has caused the ministers to scold, ridiculous, ridiculous?" Zheng He laughed a few times, as if he had a grievance in his heart, and looked at the chart and muttered: "Labor and loss of money? All in the map. His voice is taught to pay tribute when he is old, not to be ordered to be registered, and those who are bound by Hou Wei are not counted here. With such a territory, how does it compare to the Great Song Dynasty?"

"In the Great Song Dynasty, the territory was not as much as half of my Ming Dynasty, and the land was even more unbearable-?" Zheng Enlai supported Zheng He's somewhat trembling body and said softly.

Zheng He said: "The territory is less than half of my Ming Dynasty, and the yield per mu of land is not as good as that of the Ming Dynasty, so in this way, the people of the Great Song Dynasty paid much heavier taxes than my Ming Dynasty?"

Zheng Enlai sighed and said, "Yes!"

Zheng He laughed and said, "But what about the people of the Great Song Dynasty?"

Zheng Enlai said: "Extremely rich!"

Zheng He laughed again, and the voice echoed in the small building for a long time, shaking the two bookshelves slightly.

Zheng He laughed a few times, tears welled up in his eyes, and said loudly: "What a "good one" is extremely rich?" "Do you know how much I earn now in the Ming Dynasty?"

Zheng Enlai thought for a while and said: "The child went to the household department some time ago, and I heard that in the first year of Hongxi, His Majesty rewarded farming, reduced taxes, and earned four million taels of silver from the treasury!"

"Four million taels? The dignified Ming Kingdom, the annual income is only a few million taels, is it not as good as the income of the West in a year? It can be seen that blindly preventing the West from going to the West will not make the people of the Ming Dynasty have enough food and clothing?" Zheng He said this, sighing heavily, and his tone was much smaller.

Zheng Enlai stopped talking in a funny way.

The small building immediately became extremely quiet.

After a long time, I heard a sigh and said, "Jing Hong didn't just tell you this good news, right?"

Zheng Enlai nodded and said: "The prince also asked his son to tell his father, the prince has the style of becoming an ancestor, and his father's trip to the West is only afraid that it will fall on his shoulders, but these literati are not at ease with their father, and they are afraid that they will take this opportunity to attack their father, and let the child tell his father that he must arrive at noon today, and the 500,000 silver must be made clear in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, only in this way can the prince win the trust of his father and return to the West?"

Zheng He muttered, "Go to the West again?"

After a long time, Zheng He's eyes flashed, and he immediately recovered his previous murderous aura, and said loudly: "You go to tell Sù Jinghong, I will definitely arrive at the noon dynasty, this time, I, Zheng He, will not only arrive, but also let those literati see, what kind of person am I, Zheng He, only 500,000 taels of silver, and I can't get into my Zheng He's eyes?"

"Yes!" Zheng Enlai was the first time in more than a year that he saw his father showing such a terrifying gaze, and hurriedly responded.

Zheng He looked at Zheng Enlai's disappearing figure, slowly retracted his gaze, and fell back on the chart, the red circle of light was extremely red, "Mecca, I, Zheng He, will definitely come?"

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, it can be pushed up to the year of Jiachen (the twenty-fourth year of Yuan Zhizheng. In the first month of this year, Zhu Yuanzhang called King Wu in Jinling, built a hundred officials, and soon held a court meeting, but the Ming Dynasty had just been established, and many systems were directly inherited from the Yuan Dynasty, such as Zhongshu Province, Yushitai, etc., but the court meeting system did not favor the Yuan system. The Yuan Dynasty will be extremely brief, "every day it will be carried out into the Yanchun Pavilion and other halls to perform things". At the end of the year, there were still courtiers who said: "Today's country has a hundred years in the world, and the rules and cultural relics are all better than those of the previous generations...... However, the canons of the court rituals do not talk about it", and build yì "consider the appropriateness of the ancient and modern, or three days, two days, and one regular dynasty", that is to say, there is a Yuan dynasty, and the "two or three ministers" such as Zhongshu Province, Yushitai, Xuanzheng Yuan, and the Privy Council are only "two or three ministers" and "a few people" who are cowardly and close to Xue. Undoubtedly, such a "court meeting" is not conducive to expanding the emperor's sources of information, and Zhu Yuanzhang is a person who is good at summing up the lessons of history, after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, he believes that the important reason for the loss of the Central Plains of the Yuan Dynasty is that the power of the ministers is deceived and the authority is shifted downward, and he naturally regards it as a cheating government and completely transforms it. It should be said that the original intention of the design of the Ming Dynasty court meeting system was directly inspired by the negative side of the Yuan Dynasty's court meeting meeting too narrowly.

The characteristics of the Yuan Dynasty are closely related to the founding tradition of the nomadic people of "Xingguo" and "Xingdian". Although Zhu Yuanzhang did the opposite, but he single-handedly founded the court, compared with the Han, Tang and other Han dynasties, it seems to be a lot more cumbersome, "large and small public and private matters and make the public dynasty Chen play", in this way, the emperor to deal with the things at the court meeting is extremely complicated, "Ming Huidian" contains the 28th year of Hongwu set the "ensemble notice" of the various government and ministry yamen, up to the money, in addition to the election, the grain, the proposal, the execution of prisoners, the opening of the yamen and other major events, as well as disasters, rain, the number of prisoners and other similar matters, there are many such as "buying cattle and farm tools", " The recovery of stolen goods is insufficient, and the family members are not enough". When it comes to "confidential matters in the army, guarding access control, customs defense, and other matters," Xu Guanqi's soldiers "play it"; civil lawsuits are often "sealed and heard." Even the officials and soldiers guarding the imperial city who searched and found the stolen property of the inner government had to be led to the court gate and sent by the emperor himself. It can be described as "annoying" to the extreme. “

Fortunately, this is mostly limited to the early dynasty, compared to the afternoon dynasty, the cumbersome process dù has been greatly reduced, not only the location is not fixed, that is, the personnel of the upper dynasty, but also the great mobility, not so much the court meeting, but the gathering of monarchs and ministers to talk about some state affairs together.

The location that Yang Zheng chose for the afternoon dynasty was the imperial study, and the people who participated in the court meeting were only dozens of people, in addition to the parties, they also specially ordered someone to invite Yang Shiqi.

As the bell rang in the afternoon, Yang Zheng, under the guidance of Chen Wu, began to enter the imperial study, sat on the Taishi chair, and accepted the worship of the ministers.

After a visit, the Ministry of Industry Shangshu, Yang Shiqi, the household servant Chen Shan, and several household colleagues all sat peacefully on the bench on the left side, and on the right side, except for a Ministry of Industry Shangshu who was responsible for building the Great Bao'en Temple, Zheng He, Wang Jinghong, and Zheng Enlai sat on the right side, but there were no other literati sitting over, as if it was a two-level division.

Yang Zheng looked funny, but he didn't move and looked at the music sent this morning, the content of the music was almost the same, and he unanimously supported Chen Shan's inspection of the 500,000 taels of the Dabao'en Temple, Yang Zheng just gently swept the same performance on the desk, and let people withdraw.

Several officials of the household department looked at Yang Zheng's scene without moving, and a trace of worry flashed in their eyes, but Zheng He and Wang Jinghong on the left quietly glanced at each other, and a trace of joy flashed in their eyes.

Chen Shan's face was a little displeased, the prince's attitude in the study today, made him a little depressed, today the noon dynasty will not put the deficit of the Great Bao'en Temple on the main hall, but in the imperial study to discuss, moreover, the participants, just a few people, let him punch out, soft feeling.
