Xu Jie's concern is chaos, and Wu Shan's entry into the palace is not difficult to guess.

With the birth of "Talking about the Past and the Present", this publication was not only sought after by Shilin, but even the emperor was a loyal reader of this publication and was willing to spend some time on this publication.

It is precisely by virtue of the affection of the monarch and the ministers accumulated by this publication that Wu Shan was able to survive the thrilling court battles twice, and in the middle of each month, he would hand over "Talking about the Past and the Present" to the emperor's first imperial review.

Today is another such day, Wu Shan entered the palace this time, and he came to present "Talking about the Past and the Present" to the emperor as usual.

Wu Shan, who was wearing a first-class official uniform, came to the front of the Wanshou Palace, and went to the palace through a small eunuch, and then followed the little eunuch into the Wanshou Palace and came to the quiet room where Jiajing was.

Here, there is a faint scent of sandalwood in the air.

Jiajing, who was wearing a blue robe, did not sit cross-legged in front of the desk to approve the performance, looking like he had just gotten up, leaning on the soft collapse, his face was obviously worse than usual.

"Wechen meet the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

When Wu Shan saw Jiajing on the soft collapse, he immediately knelt down and said.

Jiajing's impression of Wu Shan was not bad, so he raised his hand lightly and said, "Wu Aiqing, flat body!" ”

"Emperor Xie!" Wu Shan has always done things in a regular manner, and after getting up from the ground, he immediately raised a hardcover version of the book above his head and said: "This is the new issue of "Talking about the Past and the Present", please read it to the emperor!" ”

Jiajing only gave a look, Huang Jin understood it, stepped forward to take the book in Wu Shan's hand, and presented the hardcover version of "Talking about the Past and the Present" to Jiajing.

This kind of thing has gradually become a routine, and Jiajing also likes to relax by reading this publication, and reclines on the soft couch to read "On the Past and the Present", but his brows slowly frowned.

Hey?

Huang Jin, who was standing beside him, seemed to be the only one in the whole world, so his attention had always been on Jiajing's body, but he soon noticed Jiajing's unhappiness.

Bang!

The hardcover version of "Talking about the Past and the Present" was suddenly thrown onto the smooth floor, which frightened the surrounding palace people and immediately shuddered, and they fell to their knees one after another, not daring to let out a trace of rough gasp.

Wu Shan's heart was suddenly shocked, but he just lowered his head and bowed his hands, and did not choose to kneel down and admit his mistake or anything.

Jiajing's eyes were very sharp, he looked up at Wu Shan, was silent for a moment, but said with a calm face: "It's really not as good as one issue, don't look at it in the future, you don't need to send it again!" ”

This......

When Huang Jin heard this, he immediately felt a burst of surprise.

However, he also can't grasp the emperor's intentions, this "Talking about the Past and the Present" has declined in the emperor's absorption power is a fact, from the beginning of reading it several times to now often only reading one or two editions.

"Wechen obeys!"

Wu Shan was slightly startled, but he still responded in a proper manner.

Jiajing had been staring at Wu Shan, his face gradually softened, and he said lightly: "Go down!" ”

"Wechen farewell!"

Wu Shan was like an extremely conscientious courtier, and he left in a proper manner.

Huang Jin glanced at Wu Shan who was leaving, and then secretly glanced at the emperor with a solemn face, and finally his eyes fell on the book "Talking about the Past and the Present" on the ground. Obviously, this is where the story lies.

The officialdom in the capital is already turbulent again.

Officials will naturally be better informed and more comprehensive. Just when everyone thought that Wu Shan's opposition to the restoration of the old salt policy was to hit a stone with an egg, things seemed to have taken a turn for the better.

The new issue of "Talking about the Past and the Present" was published on time, and soon it was sold to every corner of the capital through Shuyazhai's sales network, as well as to other parts of the capital.

Compared with the "Shuntian Times", the authority and scope of "Talking about the Past and the Present" are not at the same level, and the special sales network has already radiated to Guangdong and other places.

The new issue of "Talking about the Past and the Present" seems to be a little different, and on the page of the current discussion strategy, it is resolutely a "On the Disadvantages of Salt" written by Xu Wei.

Xu Wei's talent naturally does not need any questioning, and the text quotes scriptures and dictionaries and uses words to form sentences, which is already a splendid article. Coupled with the data listed, even the hidden problems of the salt administration are completely exposed.

"Talking about the Past and the Present" is aimed at the market of high-end readers, and it is also a reading material that many officials like, and the audience has reached a terrifying figure, and its potential influence has long exceeded imagination.

When Xu Wei's article came out, it immediately pushed the issue of salt politics to the forefront, and at the same time echoed Lin Haoran's arguments, so that many scholars and officials could not help but re-examine the big issue of salt politics.

"Damn these salt merchants!"

"The price of salt must be brought down!"

"The imperial court should continue to sort out the salt administration!"

……

Scholars may be blinded by their vision, but after learning the truth, they will also show a passionate side. They have pointed the finger at the salt merchants and the forces behind them, and have begun to call on the imperial court to rectify the salt policy, instead of restoring the old system of quasi-salt.

Public opinion in the capital seems to have undergone a 180-degree change overnight. Many scholars changed from advocating the restoration of the old system of salt administration in Lianghuai to demanding that the imperial court continue to sort out the salt administration.

It was also at this time that many officials realized the power of "Talking about the Past and the Present" and "Shuntian Daily", and Wu Shan and Lin Haoran even took advantage of this to create a big trouble for Xu Jie and the two Huai salt merchants.

When night fell, the lights of Xu's Mansion turned on.

Several heavyweight court tycoons gathered in the Xu Mansion again, but in this living room, it was no longer as relaxed as before, but filled with a depressing atmosphere.

In this time, the public opinion of the Xu Party and the two Huai business groups is simply a small thing. Wu Shan's side suddenly showed "Talking about the Past and the Present" and "Shuntian Daily", and through these two media prices, the issue of salt politics was completely made public, and it set off a wave of public opinion in the capital.

The most important thing is that public opinion in the capital has been tilted towards Wushan's side, and the call for the reorganization of the salt government is getting louder and louder.

Xu Jie, who was wearing a python robe, drank tea silently, and covered his face with the newspaper, he didn't seem to be happy today, and he was facing a major choice at the moment.

Why Yan Song's father and son are hated by hundreds of officials, first, Yan Song's father and son hold the authority firmly in their hands, and they have to intervene in everything; The second is that they don't take their reputation seriously, and they have implemented the party's move of fighting against dissent in the court.

He is now the first assistant of the dynasty, and he has won the favor of the saint, so he can naturally go his own way, so that Xu Yishangshu, the imperial historian of the salt patrol, proposes to restore the old practice, and he intends to pass it to the emperor.

It's just that in this way, it is difficult to guarantee that he will end up with the notoriety of colluding with the two Huai salt merchants, which is a situation he does not want to see.
