Chapter 1248: Tiger Girl's Little Ninety-Nine
There was no big storm in Xiyuan, and although Jiajing intended to travel the world and find the ancient book of immortality that fell from the sky in his dream, he also knew that his departure from Beijing would cause a great upheaval.
What's more, Jiajing's ideas are always imaginative, but when they are really implemented, they will always look forward and backward, just like the plan to recover the Hetao in the past.
It's just that there was no big storm in Xiyuan, and with the results of the financial management meeting attended by Jiuqing, the undercurrent under Beijing was surging, and this officialdom was destined to make waves.
With Wu Shan formally proposing the opening of the sea and the salt administration, this will inevitably lead to strife, and this feud is likely to continue until one side completely suppresses the other.
It's just that many times, no matter how turbulent the undercurrent of officialdom is, the feeling to the outside world is still calm and waveless.
The people and officials of Beijing obviously lived in the same city, but it was as if they were living in two completely different worlds, and the people could never feel the battle of the court.
Compared with the south of the city, where officials frequently visit the city, the north of the city seems to be very calm, and it is the same place as usual.
At the time of the unitary hour, a sedan chair left the Shuntian Mansion as usual. Under the escort of a guard team, they walked through the streets and alleys and headed directly towards Jintaifang.
Although this is the city of Beijing where the imperial ministers walk everywhere, but in the north of the city, the highest yamen is the Shuntianfu Yamen, so Lin Fu and others who walked in front looked arrogant.
It's also a little comfort. Although the head of the Shuntian Mansion Yin was suppressed by the six court officials and other court officials, the Shuntian Mansion Yin was able to walk sideways in the north of the city for most of the time.
Lin Haoran, who was wearing a three-grade official uniform, sat in a sedan chair, and had already added a bit of official authority, just closing his eyes and recuperating. I was not interested in the scenery outside the sedan car, and at the moment I was thinking about it, and my thoughts were drifting to the south of the city.
The results of the financial management meeting have reached his ears, although the proposal to rectify the salt administration has not been passed, but Jiuqing is in favor of reopening the Ningbo City, which is undoubtedly a good result.
The opening of Ningbo not only effectively strengthens the circulation of goods in Guangdong and Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but also promotes the maritime trade of the Ming Dynasty, so that the Ming Dynasty embarks on a road of prosperity and strength.
Of course, he is no longer an ignorant politician, and he knows very well that although this strategy has been proposed, whether it can be approved by the emperor and the cabinet is one thing, and whether it can be truly implemented is another.
Although the opening of the sea can stimulate maritime trade, so as to exchange for a large amount of overseas silver, which in turn will promote the development of the Ming handicraft industry. However, this will change the way in which a single land production gathers wealth, and will even free many people from the shackles of land, which the gentry class who own large tracts of land means of production do not want to see.
For the dynasty, it can be seen from the household registration system founded by Zhu Yuanzhang that the Zhu dynasty also hopes that the people under its rule will honestly engage in agricultural production, which will be conducive to the stability of the dynasty.
Whether it is the local gentry and big places, or the essence of the Zhu dynasty, the essence is not too strong to promote the desire to open the sea, and it is easy to become an obstacle to the opening of the sea.
It is precisely in this way that the opening of the sea in the Ming Dynasty will be a continuous struggle, and there will be all kinds of resistance in the future, and even officials will not be able to effectively promote the opening of the sea in Ningbo.
Lin Haoran felt the swaying of the sedan chair, and the whole person seemed to be in the court, and he was in the midst of the waves at this moment, and he had to fight against the undercurrent below.
It's just that after so many years of officialdom, he has also grown up slowly, and he is also confident to promote the cause of opening the sea, and resolutely change this dynasty that has not yet rotted to the roots.
"Sir!"
The sedan chairs fell to the ground one after another, the sedan curtain was carefully pulled open from the outside by a hand, and the voice of the housekeeper Lin Jinyuan came respectfully.
Lin Haoran knows that she has returned home, and she loves the feeling of coming home, which is like a warm harbor.
He bent down and got out of the sedan door, but before he could step past the sedan stick, the tiger girl had already come to his side, and her lovely face looked red, as if it had been smeared with a layer of rouge by the setting sun.
The tiger girl is no longer that little bit, she is obviously a little taller, the biggest change is that the small nose has not changed, and she is evolving towards a down-and-out girl, and the whole person is still full of vitality.
The moment he saw Lin Haoran, those eyes bloomed with great excitement, but the next second he retracted and frowned and complained seriously: "Brother, why did you come back so late?" I've been waiting for you here for half an hour! ”
"Where am I late, Xia Ya will come back directly, you have something to do with me?" Lin Haoran looked at the tiger girl suspiciously, and asked suspiciously.
Hu Niu immediately nodded seriously, but turned her head to look left and right, and beckoned vigilantly: "Brother, let's go to the inner house!" ”
Lin Haoran looked at this wild girl mysteriously, but she was also accustomed to her temperament, so she followed her towards the inner house.
Wu Qiuyu was hurriedly going out from outside, but as soon as he came out of the weeping flower gate, he saw the brother and sister walking towards him, and he saluted in a proper manner: "Xianggong, you are back!" ”
"Well, I don't know what this girl is looking for me!" Lin Haoran nodded to Wu Qiuyu, pointed to the tiger girl walking in front and said hello, and then followed the tiger girl into the inner house.
Wu Qiuyu looked at the brother and sister who hurriedly walked into the inner house, and pursed her lips slightly.
The tiger girl came in from the weeping flower gate, stood in the courtyard, and looked at no one around, then raised her face and asked seriously: "Brother, what is the branch world?" When questioning, her eyes were unblinking, staring at Lin Haoran seriously.
Lin Haoran didn't think of this question, and immediately asked suspiciously: "Branch the world?" What is the emperor going to send someone to do for him to walk the world? ”
"Did you send a Qin to find a treasure in a place?" Hu Niu carefully digested Lin Haoran's words, and immediately continued to ask.
Lin Haoran looked at this girl's serious appearance, and nodded honestly: "Well, it can be understood like this!" ”
"That's good!" The tiger girl's eyebrows immediately rose with a touch of joy, and she turned around to leave.
"Where are you going?" Lin Haoran watched the wild girl walk outside, and asked in confusion.
"I want to go to the Drum Tower and see if there are any treasures! You and your sister-in-law don't have to wait for me for dinner, I'll eat it when I come back! The tiger girl had already walked far away, and replied without looking back.
Lin Haoran looked at the tiger girl who jumped over the threshold and left, and a black line immediately appeared on her forehead, and this wild girl suddenly became stupid. After waiting for myself for a long time, I asked for a little fur stuff, and then I didn't even plan to eat dinner on time.
