This is the key thing they care about, and they don't really care about the rest.

Although the gentry group has many common interests, their individual interests and demands are different.

Some people are concerned that a business name with a royal logo will affect their family's business.

Some people don't care about that, because they don't have that much business in their family, and they only have a lot of fields in the school. So this matter has little to do with them, and they are not very worried in such a situation.

Others felt that business would be better if the business was given a royal logo, and they were very supportive.

So opinions are very divided.

However, there is one thing that everyone is really cautious about, that is, Sun Chengzong mentioned that if the royal logo is given to these merchants, if they do anything bad, will it damage the royal face?

This is something that everyone present is very concerned about. Even in the court, no one dared to say anything loudly, because this matter was more sensitive.

However, in the cabinet, since Sun Chengzong proposed it, it is a matter that cannot be bypassed, so this matter must be put on the agenda for discussion.

Xu Guangqi glanced at Sun Chengzong and said slowly: "I don't think it's a big deal. These people were supposed to be offering items for the royal family, which means that this is true. Since it is a fact, there is naturally no problem. So I don't think we're going to have to worry about it. ”

Xu Guangqi's attitude did not surprise them.

Xu Guangqi has always insisted that the courtiers should not point fingers at the emperor's affairs, and let the emperor's affairs be decided by himself, which will reduce unnecessary conflicts between the monarch and the minister, and will not let the monarch and the minister be centrifuged.

However, this is contrary to the current mainstream thinking, so Xu Guangqi has received a lot of resistance.

At this time, Sun Chengzong spoke again: "But what if these merchants harm the people with shoddy goods? You must know that they are playing the name of the royal family, and if they are shoddy, it will hurt the reputation of His Majesty. At that time, His Majesty's reputation will be damaged, and even if those people are killed, they will be useless. ”

This is a very serious problem, and several people looked at each other, and at the same time thought of one thing in their hearts, that is, not to let His Majesty do this.

If there is no such thing, then there will be no problem.

"Then you have to abolish it?" Xu Guangqi said with some anger: "Can't you see the benefits of this matter? I don't believe you don't see it, but the benefits are obvious. Is it just because of those problems that the benefits are ignored? What is it called? It's called choking on food! ”

"If you are worried that they are cheating the people and deceiving them, why don't you think of a way to solve this problem? What is it that doesn't want to solve the problem, but doesn't want to do it? This is lazy politics! ”

Xu Guangqi's gaze swept over everyone, and said slowly: "Anyway, I won't agree to stop." ”

Sun Chengzong glanced at Xu Guangqi and leaned back quietly.

He wouldn't argue with Xu Guangqi about this.

Since entering the cabinet, the two of them have been like they are not on the same channel, and they have to rush for everything.

But Sun Chengzong knew in his heart that he couldn't really conflict with Xu Guangqi. If he and Xu Guangqi are facing each other now, then it must be himself who falls.

Although he is His Majesty's teacher, this is useless, because at this time, he and His Majesty are only a courtier and a king, and the relationship between master and apprentice no longer exists.

All I have to do is wait, wait for Xu Guangqi to make a mistake.

Now His Majesty wants to use Xu Guangqi, and he has to wait until Xu Guangqi disappoints His Majesty, otherwise he will have absolutely no hope.

Especially in matters concerning His Majesty, if he stands on the opposite side of Xu Guangqi, he has no chance of winning at all.

Han Yi glanced at Sun Chengzong and Xu Guangqi, originally thought that a very fierce conflict would break out between the two of them, but he didn't expect Sun Chengzong to stop talking.

Han Yi was slightly disappointed in his heart, but he also knew that Sun Chengzong couldn't be blamed at this time.

So he smiled and said, "What Elder Xu Ge said makes sense. We have been appointed by His Majesty to take charge of the Cabinet, and of course we cannot be choked on food. But you know the disadvantages of this matter, and you also know the benefits, so you have to think of a way. ”

"Since you put forward this idea, Elder Xu Ge, then you think you can handle this matter, right? You write a script for us to see, and if appropriate, we will play your majesty together. What do you think of this? ”

Sun Chengzong glanced at Han Yi, squinted his eyes and did not speak.

Huang Kezhang on the side also looked like he didn't care about himself.

He knew better in his heart that this time Xu Guangqi was pitted and buried by Sun Chengzong and Han Yi. Sun Chengzong dug a pit, Han Mine buried the soil, and the two of them cooperated very well.

Xu Guangqi glanced at the two of them, how could he not see such an obvious thing? What's more, these two people are not playing with conspiracy, this is a complete conspiracy.

Then since you agree, then you can come up with a reason. This is also reasonable.

If you don't accept the offer, it means that what you said above will be in vain.

Xu Guangqi knew that the two of them did not do this to harm themselves, but simply to make themselves do more things and do more sinners.

The so-called rope saws the wood and the water drops through the stone, in such a situation, he may not be in the cabinet for long.

They have never hedged themselves like this for the sake of anything, all they want is to kick themselves out of the cabinet.

However, Xu Guangqi was very disdainful of them in his heart.

They sit in this position in the cabinet and don't want to do things, thinking about these things all day long, and they don't bother to talk to them about these things.

So Xu Guangqi stood up and said, "Okay, then it's decided." ”

After saying this, Xu Guangqi turned around and walked outside.

Sun Chengzong and Han Yi glanced at each other, they didn't expect Xu Guangqi to agree so neatly.

This surprised them a little.

At this time, Huang Kezhang next to him also stood up, breathed a sigh of relief gently, and said in a seemingly joking tone: "This Xu Ge Lao is really a person who does things, and he is resolute in everything he does. ”

After saying this. Huang Kezhang also turned around and left.

But it was precisely this sentence that answered the questions of Han Yi and Sun Chengzong.

Xu Guangqi agreed so happily, in addition to the battle with them, it was more that he really wanted to do things.

Xu Guangqi felt that this matter was right, so he had to do it, nothing else. Whether he mentions this matter himself or not, Xu Guangqi will do it.

After thinking of this, Sun Chengzong and Han Yi were a little embarrassed. They glanced at each other, neither of them spoke, and they stood up and went about their own business.

In the Forbidden City, by the pond in the West Garden, there is a dense camphor tree.

At this time, under the tree, Zhu Youxiao was lying on a chair, carrying a fishing rod in his hand, and let the fish drift in the pond with the wind.

He half-squinted his eyes and looked at the sky pleasantly, looking like he was wandering outside the world.

Next to him was a table with tea and fruit, and on the other side sat Empress Zhang.

At this time, Empress Zhang was not as casual as Zhu Youxiao.

Although she is also similar to Zhu Youxiao's shape, she is sitting dignified and virtuous, and the fishing rod in her hand is also hanging on the water, accompanying Zhu Youxiao to fish.

Since arriving in Xiyuan, Zhu Youxiao's life has become more leisurely.

Compared with when he was in the Qianqing Palace, the whole person was a lot more relaxed, so fishing was mentioned on Zhu Youxiao's schedule.

Sure enough, changing places can change people's moods.

"Baozhu, shall we eat grilled fish today?" Zhu Youxiao glanced at Empress Zhang and asked with a smile.

Empress Zhang smiled and said, "Your Majesty wants to use the fish we caught ourselves?" ”

After speaking, she looked at the empty fish bucket on one side and smiled like a flower.

Zhu Youxiao didn't care about Empress Zhang's teasing, he waved his hand directly, sat up straight, put down the fishing rod, rubbed his hands and said, "It seems that if I don't show you my strength, you don't know my ability." I'll let you have a good look today! ”

Looking at Zhu Youxiao's appearance, Empress Zhang smiled even brighter.

beckoned to Chen Hong, who was standing not far away, and Zhu Youxiao said, "Come on, come on, make a nest." ”

"Emperor, what is a nest?" Chen Hong said with some hesitation.

"Alright, you don't care, let me come." Zhu Youxiao became playful and began to work on his own.

Seeing that Chen Hong was still standing aside, Zhu Youxiao asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Back to the emperor, several cabinet elders on the other side seem to be arguing." Chen Hong said with some hesitation.

Glancing at Chen Hong, Zhu Youxiao sighed with some curiosity and asked, "Do you know what's the reason?" ”

"I heard that it was because of the cooperation between the Ministry of Internal Affairs and businessmen. Sun Ge Lao of the cabinet seemed to think that this would damage the face of the royal family, and if those businessmen were traitors, it would damage the royal reputation. Chen Hong said cautiously.

However, Xu Ge Lao felt that since those people would be traitors, they should find a way to prevent them from becoming traitors, and they couldn't be wasted because of choking. If you all waste food because of choking, it is lazy government. Chen Hong said cautiously again: "So Han Ge Lao and Sun Ge Lao asked Xu Ge Lao to write the inscription book. ”

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Chen Hong and waved his hand to ask him to step back, as if he didn't have any reaction to these things.

In fact, Zhu Youxiao really didn't react.

Some objected, as they expected; The fight of several members of the cabinet was also expected.

In this matter, Xu Guangqi is going to offend people again. But it doesn't matter, what's wrong with Xu Guangqi offending people?

I still have to use Xu Guangqi as well, and I have to reuse it, which no one can change, especially after this incident.

For Zhu Youxiao, a courtier like Xu Guangqi is hard to find.

Soon Zhu Youxiao was busy with his work, and came directly to Queen Zhang, and said with a smile: "This time, let me see my ability." ”

With that, he began fishing again.

I don't know if the nest that Zhu Youxiao hit just now had an effect, or if those fish heard Zhu Youxiao's call, and they all swam over quickly anyway.

It didn't take long for Zhu Youxiao to catch a fish, and it looked not small.

Unloading the fish and putting it in the bucket, Zhu Youxiao beckoned to Chen Hong who was not far away.

When he walked to his side, Zhu Youxiao said: "Send this fish to Xu Guangqi's mansion, let him make up for his body, don't work all day long." ”

Chen Hong knew that the emperor still kept what he had just said in his heart, otherwise he would not have given Xu Guangqi a reward, and it was also a reward of special significance.

This is the first fish that the emperor caught today.

Just now, the emperor said that he wanted to eat grilled fish with the queen, but now he wants to give Xu Guangqi the first fish he caught, which shows the meaning of this and the importance he attaches to Xu Guangqi.

Chen Hong hurriedly bowed down and said, "Don't worry, the emperor knows how to do it." ”

After Chen Hong left, Zhu Youxiao turned his head to look at Queen Zhang, and seeing her smiling sweetly at him, Zhu Youxiao also smiled gently and said, "Wait a minute, I'll catch a big one for you." ”

After hearing this, Empress Zhang shook her head.

"Your Majesty cherishes your courtiers, but you are really a Ming Jun, how can a concubine have any thoughts because of a fish?" Empress Zhang smiled and said, "The concubine is happy to be Your Majesty. ”

Zhu Youxiao smiled and pulled Empress Zhang into his arms, and said loudly: "That's not good, you must eat grilled fish today." ”

Looking at Zhu Youxiao's serious and somewhat funny appearance, Empress Zhang laughed and fell into his arms.

Xu Guangqi's family.

Since returning from the cabinet duty room, Xu Guangqi's face has not been good-looking.

Although he was put on a show today, he really wasn't angry because of this matter, after all, this was what he had to do.

He was angry at the attitude of those people in the cabinet, who were simply vain courtiers. But he could only be angry, and he couldn't kick them all out.

So Xu Guangqi went to the study and began to write the question book. The business still has to be done, this can't be delayed, and it can't be done with those people who are angry.

But soon the old servant came into the study and came to Xu Guangqi's side to report: "Master, someone from the palace has come to the palace, saying that it is at the will of His Majesty." ”

Hearing this, Xu Guangqi put down the pen in his hand, stood up and walked outside.

In fact, the entire Xu family is no stranger to this kind of thing, because people often come to the palace, and His Majesty will often give some rewards, which is basically operated in this way.

So if nothing else, this time it should be another reward.

Walking outside, after seeing Chen Hong, Xu Guangqi hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Gonggong Chen." ”

Chen Hong naturally didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "Our family has seen Xu Ge Lao. ”

Among the several scholars in the cabinet, Chen Hong valued this Xu Guangqi Xu Ge Lao the most, because he knew how much his emperor valued this Xu Ge Lao.

The other people are not so important to the emperor, so Chen Hong has always been very polite to Xu Guangqi.

"I don't know what to bother Grandpa Chen to come to visit in person?" Xu Guangqi asked with a smile.

"Your Majesty has a reward." Chen Hong said with a smile.

After saying this, Chen Hong waved behind him.

Two small chamberlains standing not far away came over with a bucket of water, and there was a sound of rushing water from inside.

Xu Guangqi was stunned for a moment, what is this rewarding himself?

There weren't too many salesmen, Chen Hong said directly: "Today, Your Majesty and the Empress are fishing in Xiyuan, discussing catching fish to grill and eat." Unexpectedly, when the fish was really caught, His Majesty remembered Xu Ge Lao. ”

"This is the first fish that His Majesty caught today, no, let our family send it to Xu Ge Lao. His Majesty also said that Xu Ge Lao worked hard for the country all day long, he couldn't eat or sleep well, and his body was afraid of collapse, so he had to take good repairs. This fish was given to Xu Ge Lao to stew soup, and asked him to make up for it. ”

Chen Hong said while looking at Xu Guangqi with a smile on his face.

At this time, Xu Guangqi was really moved in his heart, and the grievances he suffered in the cabinet disappeared.

This is the importance that His Majesty attaches to himself, he only does things for His Majesty, and those people are actually not important.

After thinking of this, Xu Guangqi hurriedly knelt down and said gratefully: "Minister Xu Guangqi, thank Your Majesty for the reward." ”

In fact, there was no need for such a big gift from Xu Guangqi for such a reward, but he did just that.

Because not doing so is not enough to show his gratitude.

It's not a matter of a fish, it's His Majesty showing his attitude. With His Majesty's support, he can hold his head high and be fearless.

Chen Hong didn't expect Xu Guangqi to make such a big salute, so he hurriedly walked sideways to his side, stretched out his hand to help him up, and said with a smile: "Xu Ge's heart, our family will transfer it to Your Majesty." ”

Xu Guangqi didn't say anything, he personally took the bucket and carried it under the eaves to put it away.

When Xu Guangqi turned around and came back, Chen Hongzheng looked at him with a smile on his face, and said directly: "The things have been delivered, and Your Majesty's words have also been brought to our family." In this way, our family will leave. ”

Xu Guangqi hurriedly said, "I'll send Gonggong Chen." ”

By the time Chen Hong returned to Xiyuan, Zhu Youxiao had already lit a fire here.

The charcoal fire was burning very strongly, and the pickled fish had already been placed next to it, and Zhu Youzheng was ready to put the fish on top of the charcoal fire to roast.

Empress Zhang on the side looked at Zhu Youxiao happily like a little girl, her eyes were full of admiration.

Seeing the appearance of the emperor and the queen, Chen Hong didn't dare to come over to disturb, and stood not far away and watched quietly.

In other words, the people around are all watching quietly, which can better appreciate the emperor's favor for the queen.

The palace was quiet and peaceful, but outside the palace there was constant disturbance.

The matter of adding a royal logo to the business name caused a lot of turmoil, and with a title book from Xu Guangqi, this matter was once again pushed to the forefront.

Because Xu Guangqi asked the imperial court to add a yamen, the content of this yamen's management is also very simple, that is, it specializes in managing businessmen and abduction.

After receiving a reward from Zhu Youxiao with a fish, Xu Guangqi was ruthless this time.

In Xu Guangqi's words, this yamen can be managed by the household department, which is specifically responsible for the possession of businessmen who cheat and deceive.

In this inscription, Xu Guangqi also clarified why this yamen was established.

Because many businessmen do not cheat and deceive in their own locality. In their own township, they are all good people; But when they went out of the countryside to the outside, they all did some things that were cheating and abducting. At the same time, because it is a cross-provincial crime, it is difficult to trace.

Therefore, it is necessary for the DPRK and China to set up such a yamen, and once there is a matter of businessmen being abducted and deceived, this yamen will be used to investigate.

As soon as this proposal came out, it caused an instant uproar.

The news of why there was such a proposal also spread quickly, because there were people who opposed the matter of the Imperial Firm of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

They thought that if those merchants committed adultery, it would damage His Majesty's reputation. In such a situation, this kind of cooperation with businessmen should not exist.

But Xu Guangqi didn't think so, he thought that it was because of choking and wasting food, so he put on such a question, he hoped that the imperial court could set up such a yamen, which could supervise merchants; Once someone commits a traitor, all of them will be arrested and severely punished.

Since he was in charge of businessmen, it was impossible for people to just stare at the Internal Affairs Office, so Xu Guangqi directly expanded the matter to all businessmen.

That's why this inscription caused an uproar, because it included all the merchants of the Ming Dynasty.

The faces of several cabinet elders are not very good, especially Sun Chengzong.

originally thought that this matter would make Xu Guangqi suffer a loss, but he didn't expect him to be so bold that he directly did such a thing, and he also wanted to put this yamen in the household department.

You must know that Xu Guangqi is the secretary of the household department, which is blatantly expanding the power of the household department.

Once this matter is achieved, it will be equivalent to one more yamen in the household department, and it will also be the yamen that manages all merchants.

How great the power of this yamen is, as long as there is no one who mixes in the officialdom, does not know. Under such circumstances, who would want Xu Guangqi to do this?

You must know that there is so much power in officialdom, and if you take away a part, others will lose a part, which is absolutely not allowed.

Of course, there are also people who support the proposal to set up a new yamen, that is, Xu Guangqi, a faction; At the same time, there are also people who want to be promoted in the household department, and they want more power.

All of a sudden, the court had a mess of the last argument, and the quarrel was endless.

Countless inscriptions were sent to the palace in this way and placed directly in front of Zhu Youxiao.

When they can't come up with a result, they will naturally think of letting Zhu Youxiao, the emperor, call the shots.

For this kind of referee role, Zhu Youxiao still likes it very much.

However, Xu Guangqi's actions this time made Zhu Youxiao a little shocked.

I didn't expect Xu Guangqi to put forward such an idea, which is quite ahead of its time, and Zhu Youxiao thinks it's a good idea.

Of course, this yamen cannot be used to manage the internal affairs government, but it does not mean that the internal affairs government is ignored.

Although the Internal Affairs Office was Zhu Youxiao's yamen, he really didn't dare to say that he trusted them very much. You must know that the internal affairs of the Qing Dynasty in later generations were notoriously corrupt.

Absolute power leads to absolute corruption. If there is no regulation, it will definitely not work.

Although he has set up a supervision system within the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it is still not comprehensive enough, and it is easy for him to have problems supervising himself.

So Zhu Youxiao felt that Xu Guangqi was a good idea, an idea that killed two birds with one stone.

In such a situation, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will be supervised by this yamen, and at the same time, this yamen can also take care of other merchants. That's a very good idea.

Once this yamen is established, a merchant management law can be enacted, and all merchants can be included at that time. In this way, it is much more convenient for the imperial court to do things.

However, now the debate outside is very fierce, and Zhu Youxiao is not ready to come forward for a while, wanting to see how far the two sides can fight.

However, Zhu Youxiao guessed that Xu Guangqi should suffer, after all, he was weak. Although he is a cabinet elder and a secretary of the household department, after all, he has been in office for too short a time, and there is no way to do many things, and the people who support him have not been promoted, so he has to suffer a loss.

However, Zhu Youxiao didn't care, there was no way to change the outcome of such an argument. In fact, as long as someone supports him, as long as someone is willing to do things for himself, then he, the emperor, has the final say.

In such a situation, you have absolute authority and can decide anything.

The current Zhu Youxiao is in this state, and there are people in the court who are willing to do things for him, so he can decide many things.

This is also the reason why Zhu Youxiao cleaned up the Donglin Party after he took office; At the same time, it is also the reason why Zhu Youxiao left so many parties in the DPRK.

Because only in this way can the emperor be able to balance the parties, and then let them do what they want to do as an emperor, rather than letting their courtiers do what they want to do. This is crucial for an emperor.

Whether it's Xu Guangqi or anyone else, if they are given full power, they will plan and do things according to their ideas. This is common to anyone.

Zhu Youxiao will not pin his hopes on other people, he only needs to make his own decisions.

However, the yamen proposed by Xu Guangqi gave Zhu Youxiao some ideas, but he didn't know who to find to make it suitable, or what kind of regulations to build.

According to Xu Guangqi's opinion, this yamen is more like the urban management of the city, or the industrial and commercial bureau.

If such a yamen is set up and only has these two positions, Zhu Youxiao will not be reconciled.

Because the problem of Daming is very clear, it is not a problem of land annexation or anything like that. Maybe this is also a big problem, but the most important issue in the Ming Dynasty is taxation.

If the court has no money, it can't do anything.

On the contrary, the private sector holds a large amount of capital, and they will use it to force the government. This is not a new thing, whether in the era of the Ming Dynasty or in later generations.

Only when the court has money can it do what it wants to do and solve other problems.

Therefore, it would be a pity to set up such a yamen without the function of taxation.

But little by little, if you go down to collect taxes now, it is estimated that you will make a mess.

Just like the mining tax that Emperor Wanli made back then, it directly led to the fight between Emperor Wanli and his courtiers, on the surface, it seemed to be because of this or that, but in fact it was because of money.

Zhu Youxiao didn't want to make such a mistake.

If you don't move, you will move, and if you move, you will be thunderous.

Glancing at Chen Hong standing beside him, Zhu Youxiao thought for a while and said: "Wait a minute, you go to the cabinet to pass the decree, just say that there are many discussions inside and outside the court now, some people say that the Internal Affairs Office is doing the right thing, and some people say that the Internal Affairs Office is doing the wrong thing." Let the officials discuss it and put on some more questions; Let the cabinet make it clear that I am receptive to opinions, and that if what they say makes sense, I will do it. So let them be bold and say that they don't have any scruples. ”

Chen Hong hurriedly said respectfully: "Yes, the emperor, the slave and maid will go." ”

When Chen Hong walked out, a smile slowly appeared on Zhu Youxiao's face.

The words he just said, or the purpose for which he wanted to do it, had one and only one, and that was to brush up his prestige.

As for what those people want to do, or the opinions they put forward, Zhu Youxiao will not adopt them at all, because it is meaningless at all.

Even if there is any meaning, Zhu Youxiao will not let them do it.

Although there was a lot of public opinion outside, everything was going on as usual on the part of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and there was no intention of stopping.

Ministry of Internal Affairs, the foreman minister's duty room.

Zhang Guoji sat on the chair, and the expression on his face was very ugly.

During this time, he was not in a good mood, and originally thought that he would make a big difference after he arrived at the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and when the time came, he would have both public and private affairs.

But who would have thought that after arriving at the Ministry of Internal Affairs, things would not be what he imagined at all. Now there are more and more discussions about him outside, and his reputation is getting worse and worse.

Especially after the cooperation between the Ministry of Internal Affairs and businessmen came out, Zhang Guoji's reputation can be said to have plummeted. As for the reason, it is very simple, that is, it is rumored that he did it.

At this time, Zhang Guoji couldn't stand it anymore. Although he was the nominal foreman of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he did not do it, and he did not even participate in it at all.

Zhang Guoji didn't know what was going on in the whole thing, but he also knew that what the Audit Department was doing must be a big deal.

Once this is done, how much is the benefit?

Let's not talk about corruption, how much does it cost to pay the filial piety given by those businessmen every year?

Of course, it's not for money, what we're saying is that I didn't do it in itself, and I didn't even participate in it, so why should I rely on it all?

Zhang Guoji felt aggrieved.

At this time, a man walked in from outside.

The person who came was a little thin, and his age was in his thirties. Unlike the others here, who were wearing official uniforms, this person was wearing a Confucian shirt, and he looked more like a teacher than a person who had mixed up with officialdom.

After seeing this person, Zhang Guoji raised his head, reluctantly pulled out a smile and said, "Mr. is here?" ”

This person who is called Mr. by Zhang Guoji, his name is Qin Bing, and his identity is also very simple, he is Zhang Guoji's staff, that is, the person who gives him advice.

Hearing Zhang Guoji greet him, Qin Bing arched his hand with a smile and said, "I've seen adults." ”

"Okay, you and I don't have to be polite." The unhappiness on Zhang Guoji's face was swept away, and he said with a gentle smile.

This is a way for the superior to show his closeness to his subordinates, and Zhang Guoji feels that he has used it very well.

In such a close situation, his subordinates will inevitably do their best to assist him.

This is not his own conjecture, but a truth obtained by combining theory with practice. For example, the Qin Bing in front of him, this is the talent he recruited by being a corporal and giving respect.

After Qin Bing sat down, Zhang Guoji said, "Sir, what do you say should be done now?" ”

Without answering Zhang Guoji's words, Qin Bing just smiled and said, "The student came back from outside just now and heard a little news, thinking that the adults should be very interested." ”

After listening to Qin Bing's words, Zhang Guoji's face really showed an interested expression.

This is not because he cooperates with acting, but because every time this Mr. Qin says this, then he must be sure.

Zhang Guoji has experienced this kind of thing several times, so he is also very confident.

"Now Your Majesty has issued an order, let the courtiers discuss whether our Internal Affairs Office should do this." Qin Bing said with a smile: "Students feel that this is an opportunity. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Zhang Guoji said with a frown.

He didn't think this was an opportunity, he just felt that now that the DPRK and China were paying attention to this matter, something would happen if he was not careful.

It's not a good idea to go in at this time, and it's not a good choice whether things work out or not.

"What do you mean, sir?" Zhang Guoji looked at Qin Bing and asked again.

"It's our chance to come," Qin Bing repeated what he had just said again, but this time he gave an explanation, "Now that all the officials of the imperial court are staring at this matter, your lord needs to get things done as soon as possible." ”

Zhang Guoji said with some hesitation: "I didn't do this in the first place, why should I do it?" Isn't it Hu Fei's credit? I think this matter should be messed up with it, and that Hu Fei will definitely not be able to eat and walk around at that time. ”

"After this Hu Fei can't eat and walks around, I will take over the matter, and then the matter will be done, and all the credit and benefits will come."

Qin Bing glanced at Zhang Guoji, the expression on his face did not change at all, but he was helpless in his heart.

This ruler is really stupid, and at this time, he still has such a sweet dream.

However, he did not show the slightest impatience, but continued to explain: "If things can't be done, the palace will definitely be unhappy." ”

Zhang Guoji nodded.

He also knew this, because that Hu Fei was brought from the palace, so this matter was most likely the meaning of the palace. If it is really messed up, then Hu Fei will definitely be unlucky.

So Zhang Guoji said excitedly: "It is precisely because of this that we have to push Hu Fei out and make things yellow." ”

Qin Bing was slightly nervous, and said, "My lord, things are far from being so simple. This matter was raised by our Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs was being mentioned from top to bottom. Even if the adults push Hu Fei out, what can it do? Those people will still chase after the Ministry of Internal Affairs. ”

"They don't want one person from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but the entire Ministry of Internal Affairs. Hu Fei can't do this now, and when the adults do it, they will use the same reason to make the adults unable to do it. How will you explain to Your Majesty when the time comes? ”

"So it's the way to go, it's the way to go, and we can't do it anyway. Not only can the adults not fall into the well, but they also have to send charcoal in the snow to get this thing done, so that His Majesty can be happy. ”

"The students have also heard that His Majesty has sent a decree to the cabinet for the courtiers to discuss this matter and see if it can be continued. This is the opportunity for adults, and adults can go to Hu Fei and ask him to give up the lead in this matter; Otherwise, the adults will not support him. ”

"As long as Hu Fei is willing to give up the dominance, the adults can enter the palace to find the queen mother. At that time, the whole thing will be the credit of the adults, and the adults will hold it all in their hands. ”

"In this way, the reputation of the adult in the internal affairs government will inevitably rise instantly, not only to prove his ability to do things to the emperor, but also to subdue Hu Fei to let him follow the adult, and also hold the audit department in his hand, which is a good thing to kill multiple birds with one stone."

"That's why I said this is a good opportunity, as long as the adults grasp it, then everything will be easy. From now on, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will be an adult, so why not be able to get out of the current situation? ”

Listening to Qin Bing's words, Zhang Guoji's eyes became brighter and brighter, and after a while, he nodded slowly and said, "What Mr. said is reasonable, and the plan is also very thorough, this is indeed the case." ”

Hearing Zhang Guoji say this, Qin Ling's face did not show a smug expression, and he still had the same light and breezy appearance.

"I still have a question, though." Zhang Guoji said again: "If this is the case, then wouldn't those opposing courtiers not be optimistic about me?" Isn't my reputation worse? ”

"My lord, this officialdom has always been deceitful, today he supports you, tomorrow you support him. What does it matter if those people don't support the adults, as long as His Majesty supports the adults. ”

"Besides, now people outside are not only against it, but also in favor. For example, Xu Guangqi and Xu Ge of the cabinet, people are very much in favor of it, so there are still people who support adults. ”

"In officialdom, it is impossible for both sides not to be offended. Because it is the wall grass that cannot be offended on both sides, and the wall grass will never end well. Adults are familiar with all kinds of allusions, so they should understand this truth, right? ”

Zhang Guoji pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Mr. has a point, since this is the case, I will immediately go to Hu Fei and ask him to agree." ”

When he said this, Zhang Guoji hesitated a little again, and asked with a dark face: "What should he do if he doesn't agree?" ”

"Rest assured, that Hu Fei doesn't dare not agree." Qin Bing said with a smile: "Since entering the Internal Affairs Mansion, this Hu Fei is very high-profile, and he has offended many people. Think about how many merchants he caught last time, and what do you think will happen to him if he gets out of here? ”

"He didn't dare to take such a risk, he just listened to the words of adults, what did he have to refuse? Besides, the lord himself is the foreman of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and he is your subordinate, so isn't it natural for him to listen to you? It doesn't hurt his face, so he'll definitely say yes. ”

"But the DPRK hasn't said that this is okay?" Zhang Guoji asked again.

"My lord, now no one can afford to drag this matter, but he Hu Fei can't afford to put it off. He had already discussed it with those merchants outside, but if the court now repented, then how could he explain to those merchants? ”

The merchants did not dare to promise him at this time. As long as the situation is unstable, businessmen will not agree, otherwise it will be a loss of people and money. The last thing I want to argue about is that there is no one else except Hu Fei. ”

"Now that the adults have given him such a chance in the past, this is his last straw, and he will definitely agree, so the adults can go with confidence."

Qin Bing had a smile on his face, he looked confident, and there was a bit of relaxation in his tone, as if everything was already under his control.
