Chapter 380: Something Really Happened This Time

Don't lie, this is a fucking liar! ”

Zhu Houxi exploded his lungs in anger, not with such a bully, "Go, call the cabinet people, by the way, call Cui Shilin again, I want to ask him, what have you learned from Wang Yue over the years?" Just learn to refer to a deer as a horse and reverse black and white? ”

His Majesty the Emperor was really angry, and even Huang Jin didn't dare to argue for Wang Yue, and the little fat man hurriedly ran away.

About half an hour later, all the cabinet ministers arrived, especially the three pavilion elders Xie, Fei, and Shi, and if you look closely, these three have black faces, red eyes, and even their hair stands up.

They have a strong sense of being fooled.

Frankly speaking, if Wang Yue talked to them, he would admit the loss, who would have expected that it would be Cui Shilin! This shame is too explosive.

It's like if you claim to be an investment genius and the world's stock god, but you are cheated by a shared bicycle and have a deposit...... This is no longer a question of shame or disgrace, it is simply subverting the world and destroying the three views. If it gets out, the three cabinet elders are cheated by Cui Shilin, who will take them seriously?

That's bullying!

"Your Majesty, Cui Shilin is playing tricks, and his heart can be punished! And Cui Shilin doesn't have such a big courage, the talent behind him is really hateful! If it is not severely punished, what order and rules do I have in Daming? The merchants are chaotic, the discipline is ruined, the opportunistic is shortcut, and the people's customs are corrupt...... Your Majesty, please forgive the old minister for saying bluntly, you can no longer indulge Wang Yue, otherwise sooner or later the country will be out of power! ”

Shi Xuan knelt directly on the ground and said Wang Yue's name, he really planned to break the cauldron and fight to the death! Fei Hong's bastard Wang Balamb, his son has already arrived under Wang Yue, and he is in collusion with Wang Yue, and he has long been colluded together.

In the huge cabinet, only he can shoulder morality, and for the righteousness of the world, he will not regret dying!

Just when Shi Xuan was fighting to the death with a tragic heart, two more people knelt on the ground, one of them was Fei Hong, a university scholar, and the other was Xie Qian, the second assistant.

The old man Xie Qian trembled, his beard kept shaking, and he didn't know if he was too old or angry.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that Wang Yue has the merit of opening up the territory and expanding the territory, which is indeed extraordinary. However, he acted wantonly, corrupted the salt law, and harbored evil intentions, using business to disrupt the government, damaging the public and private interests, such ill-intentioned and ambitious people, will definitely become a great disaster for the country in the long run! The ministers and other old men will soon die, and the ministers will advise, only for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, only for Your Majesty! There is absolutely no selfish distraction, and please let Your Majesty know it! ”

is worthy of the old fox who has only been boiled out for decades, and the lethality of these words is really too great, in addition to convicting Wang Yue, he also separated the feelings of the monarch and the ministers, and whitewashed them.

Kill three birds with one stone, and be reasonable.

From these words, it is no wonder that Liu Jin was killed by Zhu Houzhao at the beginning.

Relying on personal emotions alone can't last long, and if you can't explain the reason, it will inevitably give rise to suspicions.

So...... It's up to Cui Shilin.

Can this Wang Yue's eldest apprentice solve the problem for his master?

"Big nephew, why don't you let the fourth nephew come over!"

Cui Shilin frowned, and it took a long time before he said stupidly: "Gonggong Huang, where did you say it, I am your eldest nephew?" ”

Huang Jin rolled his eyes, "You white-eyed wolf with no conscience." Wang Yue is the elder brother of our family, you are his apprentice, I call you nephew, what's wrong? ”

Cui Shilin took a deep breath, "Father-in-law Huang, my mother is Princess Xianzong, the same generation as Emperor Xingxian, do you want to be my uncle, do you plan to be a generation higher than Your Majesty?" ”

These words were too scary, Huang Jin's face turned pale, and he waved his hand again and again.

"Fuguo Gong, don't talk nonsense!"

Cui Shilin sneered, "Gonggong Huang, are you relieved this time?" You can't take advantage of me, what can you do to those old things in the cabinet! After all, where can they compare to Huang Gonggong's just in case! ”

Huang Jin's eyes lit up, this eldest nephew is quite good at sycophancy, not so good!

Brother Fugui can choose him as his eldest disciple, maybe he is really discerning...... Huang Jin inexplicably gave birth to a trace of confidence, he took Cui Shilin to the Qianqing Palace, and after saluting the monarch, Zhu Houxi snorted coldly: "Cui Shilin, you deceived the cabinet, can you be guilty?" ”

Cui Shilin hurriedly shook his head, "Your Majesty, the minister never dared to deceive the Son of Heaven, it is really a completely impossible thing, the minister swears to the sky!" ”

Death does not admit it!

Shi Xuan snorted coldly: "Fuguo Gong, you may tell the old man, what's the matter with that pickle?" You are clearly taking the opportunity to sell illicit salt, how dare you use the banner of pickles? Are you fools to deceive others? ”

Cui Shilin blinked, and finally suddenly realized, "So that's what happened!" Old Shige, you asked about this, then I want to ask you, what is pickles? ”

The sentence "this ......" also stopped Shi Xuan, pickles are eaten all day long, but what is pickles is really difficult to define.

"Cui Shilin, you ask the old man, what about the old man asking you?"

Cui Shilin immediately said: "Ge Lao, pickles, I think there are two points, one is salty, the source is naturally salt, and the other is vegetables, whether it is radish and cabbage, or wild vegetables, it can be used as pickles, what do you think?" ”

Shi Xuan's brows were deep, "It seems unsatisfactory, but ......"

Before he finished speaking, Cui Shilin immediately laughed and said, "Your Majesty, Elder Shige has already agreed with me, pickles are salt and vegetables!" I didn't deceive you, and my master didn't deceive you! ”

"You're confusing the public and referring to a deer as a horse...... You quibble! Shi Xuan scolded angrily, but Cui Shilin didn't care, at this time Fei Hong spoke, "Fu Guogong, salt and vegetables are put together, and they have to be pickled before they can be called pickles, you got a bunch of salt, and some rotten vegetable leaves, just say that they are pickles, it is difficult to convince the public!" ”

In the face of doubts, Cui Shilin didn't refute, but nodded vigorously, "Yes, if the elder has questions, you can raise them and ask the standard arbitration committee to revise the standard, if it goes well, after half a year, it will be changed and the main points required by the elder will be written!" ”

"Wait a minute!" Fei Hong stopped Cui Shilin, "What kind of thing will this standard arbitration be?" When did the Ming Dynasty have a yamen? ”

Cui Shilin smiled dumbly, "Elder Ge, why did you forget, when I talked to you, I finally mentioned that there should be a basis, we will each send personnel, and then recruit giants and celebrities from the people to formulate rules for trade together, this is the origin of the arbitration committee?" Are you not satisfied? ”

"Nonsense!"

Cui Shilin spread his hands, "Then it's troublesome, this is the approval of the red, and the world is clear, or I will ask Your Majesty to make a decree, eat the preface, and reformulate the standard." It's just that it's so counterproductive, even if a new standard is announced, I'm afraid it will be difficult to win people's trust! ”

"Wait a minute!"

Shi Xuan was angry, "Cui Shilin, it's obvious that you are playing tricks on the court, harming the public and private interests, and destroying the salt law, and the crime is not punishable!" How did it become the fault of the imperial court? Hello big bold! ”

Cui Shilin said twice, "Old Shige, you are so righteous and strict!" You say that I have broken the salt law, then I have to ask, how much can the imperial court get from the salt law in a year? I am willing to pay this money, not only can I pay it, but I can also increase it by 10% every year, as long as I am allowed to sell salt at will, I am willing to pay 5 million taels first! ”

"You!"

This time, it was not only Shi Xuan, but even Xie Qian's face changed...... And Yang Yiqing, who had been silent, suddenly opened his old eyes!

Good boy, you've dug a little big in this hole!

It's not just big, it's just a trap that doesn't pay for people's lives!

These pavilion elders are not young, just a shovel of soil, and then they can blow a hundred birds and phoenixes, and stage a white meeting.

"Your Majesty, the minister wants to ask, why do some people keep saying that they are corrupting the salt law, but they don't explain it, whose salt law is this? If it is from the imperial court, why can the imperial court only get more than two million taels a year? Everyone knows that the salt profit is amazing, so where did the salt profit go? ”

"The north is indeed suspected of cheating, and we admit that after all, people are poor and short-sighted, and there is no way. But if Your Majesty can pay the salt tax to the north. We can guarantee three points, first, the imperial salt tax will not be reduced, second, the price of salt will not increase for the common people, and third, the military supplies in the north will be sufficient, and the Tartars will never be allowed to enter the army again! ”

Cui Shilin said loudly, and after speaking, he said to several pavilion elders with pale faces: "Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any other advice?" ”

The entire hall was as silent as death, and the needles could be heard.

If you want to ask Shi Xuan what he thinks, he will most likely regret it.

That's right, it's regret.

Wang Yue wanted to take advantage of the salt sold to raise military expenses, so he let him get it.

Selling too much is because Wang Yue is weak-hearted, and those businessmen will naturally anger Wang Yue.

But when they jump out, things are completely different.

Wang Yue did such an opportunistic thing, so he criticized him verbally and penny, and the heavens were angry and resentful, so what about other bigger things? Why turn a blind eye?

Is the problem big enough that it will be treated as if it is fine?

This time it's really troublesome, who would have thought that Cui Shilin's squish would erupt and be terrifying! Could it be that in the past, he pretended to be a pig and ate a tiger?

That's terrible, isn't it?

"Your Majesty, since there is a way to solve it, then it is better to revise the norms and give the north another half a year!" Xie Qian wanted to settle the matter quickly.

How do you know that Zhu Houxi smiled slightly, "Don't be busy!" It's rare to mention it, so I will make things clear, and I also want to know, this salt law and salt benefits...... What's the problem? If it were Wang Yue, I wouldn't be soft! ”

After a pause, Zhu Houxi said again: "You say that Wang Yue uses pickles to sell illegal salt, and the heavens are angry and resentful, but if someone doesn't even use an excuse and directly sells illegal salt, what should I do?" ”
