Chapter 1879: Dagger
Xu Jie already holds great power, and he can always figure out Jiajing's thoughts, and Jiajing's condition has not improved, so that his awe of Jiajing has weakened unconsciously, and even has a contempt for a while.
After realizing that the news of Yan Song's death was not conducive to his political interests and would even disrupt his overall plan, he decisively chose to hide it from the emperor.
He immediately threw out the rumor that "Yan Song defected to his protΓ©gΓ©" to confuse the public, and then directly blocked the official from facing the saint and presenting the news, which can be described as foolproof.
However, after all, not everyone in this court is controlled by him Xu Jie, everything he has done has already been discovered, and it is almost torn open and presented to the emperor.
"I ...... Not old fools yet! β
The voice was not deliberately raised, but it was like a thunderbolt from the blue.
Xu Jie knew that all the power he had came from the emperor, and if he lost the emperor's holy family, he would have nothing, so he immediately threw himself on the ground and cried: "The minister is afraid, and the minister deserves death!" β
As he said this, he gritted his teeth even more, and his forehead slammed heavily on the smooth and solid floor.
This......
Huang Jin looked at the dignified Shousuke's reaction, first dumbfounded, and then turned his head to look at Jiajing.
At this moment, Xu Jie was really scared. Although he has a stronger "mass base" than Yan Song, if the emperor really removes him, all his years of business will disappear.
Although Jiajing has always been unkind, but people's hearts are flesh after all, seeing Xu Jie's mistake like this, he finally said coldly: "Do your own thing!" β
"If the minister obeys the order, he will definitely serve the emperor, and he will never give up!" Xu Jie, as if he had been amnestied, immediately said loudly.
Lin Haoran looked at Xu Jie, who was happy, and sighed secretly in his heart.
Although he very much hoped that Jiajing would take off Xu Jie's black gauze hat directly, whether it was Xu Jie's understanding of Jiajing or Jiajing's affection for Xu Jie, it would not end because of this matter.
Although Jiajing let Xu Jie go, there was a trace of disgust in his eyes, and this time he was deeply aware that Yan Song's replacement was not Yan Song after all.
His gaze moved away from Xu Jie, but he turned directly to Lin Haoran, and after being silent for a long time, he faintly spit out three words: "Lin Shangshu!" β
"The minister is here!" Lin Haoran had long realized that Jiajing's gaze had fallen on him, but he responded without being humble at all.
Jiajing's gaze changed from stern to gentle, but he said lightly: "It's too early to conclude the merits and faults of the festival, and this matter will be discussed later!" β
As a king who is well-versed in the heart of the emperor, he often does not take too much sides. He had just frustrated Xu Jie's spirit, and if he supported Lin Haoran's side again, he was afraid that he would excessively fuel the arrogance of this side.
Xu Jie's forehead was broken with some skin, but his eyes flashed with joy, and he was even more glad for his actions just now, and secretly glanced at Lin Haoran next to him proudly.
Lin Haoran's face could not hide his disappointment, although he was pretending to attack Cheng Shoujie this time, but Xu Jie's shelter in Cheng Shoujie was proof that there was an ulterior secret here.
It's just that he didn't expect that Jiajing was still thinking about the two million taels, no matter what secrets there were, but he had already made up his mind to wait for the two million taels even if the origin was unknown.
Lin Haoran ignored Xu Jie's gloating gaze, and immediately cried: "Your Majesty, this year's border affairs and project silver have increased sharply, but all parties in the household department are almost at a loss to raise silver, and the silver in Taicang is less than 200,000 taels. Even if you insist on it for a while, it is to tear down the east wall and make up the west wall, but it is really difficult to last long, and you need living water to solve the difficulties of the household! β
Hehe......
Xu Jie listened to Lin Haoran still biting on the matter of Cheng Shoujie, but he couldn't help but gloat in his heart.
Out of his understanding of the Holy Beings today, the Holy Beings are more concerned with "obedience" than with any reasoning with you. In particular, he has already come to the conclusion that "it is too early to conclude the merits and faults of the observance", is it the authority that Lin Haoran can provoke?
Bite it! Bite it! Let's see how the emperor cleans up your kid who doesn't talk about martial arts.
This......
Huang Jin listened to Lin Haoran's insistence, and couldn't help but look at Lin Haoran worriedly.
Lin Haoran paused, but said sharply: "The ministers are the heads of the households, and they have the responsibility to share the emperor's worries!" The minister can not stare at the matter of copying silver on the festival, but Diao Minshu can not delay any longer, otherwise it will be difficult for the minister to take care of the financial affairs of the Ming Dynasty for the emperor even if he is not old and decrepit! β
In the end, he looked at Jiajing with tears in his eyes again, an image of a loyal and loyal minister.
Yes?
Huang Jin's mouth opened slightly, looking at Lin Haoran in shock.
I thought that Lin Haoran was going to bite into the festival, but I didn't expect his painting style to change so quickly, and I didn't expect his appetite to be so big, so he actually started the idea of Diao Minji.
Even he, the eunuch in the inner palace, knew that the most fighting in the court in the past few months was the debate over whether to implement the Diao Minshu, and Xu Jie had been pressing this matter because of the emperor's ill health.
Xu Jie's eyes were also wide, and he found that he really couldn't take it lightly in the face of this kid, he thought that the matter was over, but he didn't expect that this kid would want to promote Diao Min's book.
If it is said that strict observance of the festival will endanger some people below him, then Diao Minshu will directly endanger him, the first assistant, so he stood up and objected in a deep voice: "Lin Shangshu, you are less alarmist here, and the financial affairs are far from the difficulties you said. The two million silver stolen silver will only be released in the evening, not if it is not released to Beijing, and the second batch of 500,000 taels will be released soon! β
Didn't you use the 500,000 taels to curry favor with the emperor to repair Zichen's new palace?
Huang Jin listened to Xu Jie's eyes without blinking to say this, but he looked at Xu Jie suspiciously, but he didn't know if he had heard it wrong earlier, or if Xu Jie suddenly got amnesia.
Xu Jie's face was not red, but he arched his hand to Jiajing and said: "Your Majesty, there is no Diao nationality in this dynasty, this move is first against the ancestral system, and then it is unpopular with the people, and it is even more detrimental to the Ming Dynasty. β
As the controversy in Diao Minshu intensified, the reason on his side was also to coincidentally add the item "Corrupt Talent Ceremony", which exaggerated that the court would miss some outstanding talents.
"Lord Yuanfu, not to mention Diao Minshu, not only solves the financial difficulties, but also can repair water conservancy for the benefit of all people. You can't do this, you can't do that, how long will the emperor be misunderstood by all the people in the world? How loyal are you to the emperor in your heart? Lin Haoran directly pointed the finger at Xu Jiedao.
Xu Jie's heart tightened, and he wanted to show his loyalty even if he was busy.
"Enough!"
Jiajing again impatiently interrupted the argument between the two important ministers, but just as the voice fell, a rapid cough came from the dragon bed.
