"Your Majesty, now this result is actually possible!"
Zhang Mingwei spoke, and Emperor Chongzhen immediately attracted attention, so that Wang Chengen secretly wiped his sweat, and he hadn't seen Wan Sui Ye angry with him for a long time.
Thinking so, he also pricked up his ears to listen to Xingguo Gong's words.
"The eight great Jin merchants have arrested two in Beijing. Although the remaining six have not been caught yet, it is not so easy for them to escape from the pursuit of the imperial court, and maybe there will be good news when they turn back! ”
When Zhang Mingwei said this, he smiled and raised his voice, and said to Emperor Chongzhen, "The most important thing is that the property of these Jin merchants was basically seized by the imperial court. For the grain and grass that the imperial court urgently needs at present, hehe, Your Majesty, you have made a fortune! ”
Hearing him say it funny, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but turn his anger into joy, and immediately said with a smile, "The court has no money and no food, I am really unreliable in my heart!" Now I'll be able to get a good night's sleep tonight! ”
Speaking of this, he remembered the past, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "Since I ascended the throne, I have been worrying about money and food. Mr. Bu Lie said that sometimes, I dreamed that all the ministers came to me to ask for money, and they all woke up directly! Is...... It's really hard to look back on the past! ”
Hearing him say this, Wang Chengen buried his head low, afraid of the emperor's gaze, afraid that the emperor would remember that he was also greedy for silver.
But it was clear that he was overthinking. Emperor Chongzhen, who was sighing, only Xingguo Gong had in his eyes, "Only Mr. Tianshen can know who is lying on Da Ming's body to suck blood!" Rooting out these tumors can also be of great benefit. ”
Speaking of this, he laughed again and said, "Sir, my grasp of Zhongxing Daming is getting bigger and bigger!" ”
After finishing speaking, like changing his face, his face became serious, and he said to Zhang Mingwei again, "These are all the merits of Mr., please continue to help me Zhongxing Daming!" ”
"Of course!" When Zhang Mingwei heard this, he was in a good mood, and replied with a smile, "Your Majesty, then how will we arrange these seized money and grain under the plan next." In addition, it is also important to note that martial law in Jingshi should be lifted. ”
Martial law in Jingshi, which is to restrict everyone's going out, needless to say, is definitely something that affects people's livelihood. Therefore, when he said this, he raised his voice, emphasizing that "we must always pay attention to the people's livelihood, only by letting the people support the imperial court, the Ming Dynasty can achieve real Zhongxing, and even create unprecedented brilliance!" ”
"Sir is right, I think so too!" When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he said with a little excitement, "I will issue an order to lift martial law!" ”
Wang Chengen saw that they were chatting happily, and he knew that it was okay, so he opened his mouth to remind, "Your Majesty, the martial law before said that there were thieves coming to Beijing, so what should I say if the martial law is lifted?" ”
There must be a reason for doing anything.
Zhang Mingwei listened to it and said indifferently, "Naturally, to be honest, it is, anyway, now the Jin Shang Tong Capture Case and the Fu Social Science Manipulation Case have come to an end, and it is just right to be announced!" ”
Speaking of this, he remembered something, and added, "For these things, "Ming Pao will also comment on them to guide the public opinion of Jingshi." ”
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he asked Zhang Mingwei with great interest, "Sir, "Ming Pao" will be printed in the future, and I have to send a few more copies to the palace. While I am busy with political affairs, I found that it is also very good to read "Ming Pao"! ”
As soon as he heard this, Zhang Mingwei immediately thought of something, and immediately said with a smile, "This must be no problem, in addition, each yamen in Beijing will give one for free." ”
Although it is free, one for one yamen, even if Da Ming Xia is the most yamen in Beijing, it is impossible to spend much money. But the resulting advertising effect is unimaginable!
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he also smiled and said, "What do they do cheaply, let them pay to buy it." Otherwise, the gentleman will lose money! ”
It's only a few bucks, and Emperor Chongzhen is obviously in a good mood, so he also jokes.
So, in the midst of talking and laughing, things were settled.
………………
Generally speaking, after martial law is lifted, Jingshi will stay at home, and will definitely rush out of the house as soon as possible, go outside to breathe, and inquire about the news by the way.
However, this time, after the lifting of martial law, there were not many pedestrians on the streets, but ordinary people who were forced to come out to make a living.
Other classes, such as the wealthy, the powerful, etc., are still hiding in their own homes and worrying.
In fact, this martial law is more terrifying than any previous martial law. A large number of factory guards, and even the army, moved around, arresting people everywhere, and the momentum is so great that it is estimated that many people have seen it for the first time in their lives.
They were afraid of such a big movement, so they mostly sent servants out to listen to the news.
Of course, when the imperial court lifted martial law, it naturally posted notices. Therefore, the servants who sent out quickly brought the news back to their respective houses.
"Master, it's a shocking event! The eight major Jin merchants were captured, sold grain, iron tools and other prohibited military supplies to Liaodong Jianguo, and also reported the news, which was served by the imperial court! ”
"Master, what a shocking thing! The people in the resumption of the society formed a party for personal gain, and manipulated the county and government examinations of the Ming imperial examination, and many people were arrested by the imperial court and banned from the resumption of the society. ”
“……”
In response to these two explosive news, just look at the ass sitting there, and the focus is different.
For example, those rich families, officials and businessmen, etc., they are very concerned about the first news.
"The Eight Great Jin Merchants are captured, what about the Eight Great Jin Merchants?"
"The notice reads Fan Yongdou, Wang Dengku, Jin Liangyu, Wang Dayu, Liang Guest, Tian Shenglan, Zhai Tang, and Huang Yunfa."
"What, it's them, no wonder it's the Eighth Congress!"
"Is there a problem here? You think, what were the rumors before martial law? Could it be that the imperial court has no money, so it will do something to a rich man like them? Not to mention anything else, just the money shop they opened in Beijing, the imperial court will make a fortune! ”
"It's possible, it's very likely, the court is doing it for money, it's really shameless!"
“……”
And those in the officialdom, or the children of official eunuchs, are more focused on the second news.
"What, what happened to the resumption of the Society?"
"Shoufu was arrested and imprisoned, not because he contradicted the emperor during the impeachment of Xingguogong, but because of the restoration of the society! He was sent up by the people of the Restoration Society who paid for it and used their connections. ”
"The old man had long expected that there would be such a day in the society! Hehe, when I look at that Wu Chang, I can't wait to take over the power of that Zhang Pu, now it's okay, it's the first offender! ”
"I didn't join the Restoration Society, I was sorry before, but now it seems that it is really blessed by my ancestors!"
“……”
Compared to these people, those who have joined the Restoration Society are a little panicked. Even when there were footsteps outside, it was already the factory guards who came to arrest people.
In short, because the content of the imperial court notice is limited, after the lifting of martial law, the movement caused by these two big news is brewing. If nothing special happens, it is likely to erupt in the next few days.
After all, those rich people think that the imperial court wants to slaughter fat sheep, and they want to escape from Beijing, but the family is big, and they can't go all at once.
And those people in the Restoration Society are afraid that they will leave when they see the notice, that is, there are no three hundred taels of silver here, which is equivalent to confessing that they have participated in the manipulation of the imperial examination in the Restoration Society, so they dare not leave immediately.
In short, everyone is preparing and watching the direction of the wind. On the contrary, the court said before that the thieves had forced the Jingshi, and no one paid attention to it at all. They subconsciously think that it is fake.
Early in the morning, the curfew of the Beijing Division was lifted, and the early risers had just taken to the streets, when they suddenly heard a crisp cry of "Sell newspapers, sell newspapers, twenty copper plates and one copy of Ming Pao!" ”
"The emperor's "Ming Pao" inscribed by the emperor's royal pen, all the news in the world is on the Internet, come and see it!"
"The details of the major inside information, the Jin Shang Tong Capture Case, and the Fu Social Science Fraud Case are all in Ming Pao!"
“……”
This early riser is either an official who is preparing to go to court, or a servant of various provinces, and so on. Suddenly hearing these cries in the silence of the morning made me feel very fresh.
Although for them, what Ming Pao is, they don't know. However, the amount of the emperor's imperial pen is enough for them to buy a copy and see what it is!
In fact, for them, it is twenty taels of silver a piece, and I am afraid that they will pay this money.
Needless to say, as soon as the officials of the previous dynasty saw "Ming Pao", they were immediately attracted by the political affairs section.
The politics section is a full page, and it's the first edition. The details of the Jin merchant capture case are roughly listed, including when it began, what the main trade was, and so on; In addition, there is also a case of the manipulation of the imperial examination by the Fushe, which lists the details of a certain official's manipulation of the county examination and the government examination on a certain year, month, and day.
Seeing these contents, these officials forgot about going to court for a while, and hurriedly ordered their subordinates to stop and read them as soon as possible with lanterns.
After they finished reading it, they hurriedly looked through the other pages, and found that in the second page, there were comments on these two major cases, all of which were to the point, and some things that were not explicitly stated in the notice were added.
Looking at these things, needless to say, the officials they met discussed these two contents published in the "Ming Pao" one after another.
And those servants who came out early in the mansions heard the newsboy's clamour, and saw the appearance of the officials like this, they didn't say a word, and they also bought a copy of "Ming Pao" one after another, and then hurried back to the mansion.
Twenty cents is actually relatively expensive for ordinary people. However, ordinary people are illiterate! Even if they wanted to, they couldn't see it.
As for those wealthy families, there is no shortage of money, so there is a lack of news, so in just over an hour, the 10,000 copies of "Ming Pao" printed out were sold out. Even the 5,000 copies of Ming Pao that were not sold in the previous issue, that is, the first issue, were sold out.
