Sure enough, Emperor Wanli also turned his head to look at Chen Ju, and said expressionlessly: "Factory minister, you come to tell me whether what Guo Zhiyuan just said is true!" ……”

Chen Ju became more and more entangled, with his understanding of Emperor Wanli, don't look at the current Emperor Wanli is expressionless at this time, this is just the prelude to Emperor Wanli's outbreak, he is more and more afraid to open his eyes and say nonsense, and said cautiously: "Holy Lord, there are indeed some profiteers and Japanese robbers colluding along the coast of Fujian, but... But it shouldn't be as serious as Lord Guo said......"

"Bang!" Emperor Wanli could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, and thundered angrily: "The Lu of the food king bears the worries of the king, and these officials along the coast of Fujian not only can't share the worries of me, but also dare to collude with the Japanese invaders!" Examine! Check it out to the end! ……”

If this really makes Emperor Wanli investigate, it will be a big deal, Shen has always been a little panicked and hurriedly said: "Shengshang, you must not listen to this Guo Zhiyuan's nonsense, how can there be Fujian officials colluding with the Japanese invaders, the coastal areas of Fujian have been harassed by the Japanese as early as the Hongwu period, it is really that these Japanese are too cunning, and they will not fight head-on with my Daming Naval Division at all, even famous generals such as Qi Jiguang and Yu Daxuan cannot completely exterminate the Japanese invaders, and they cannot completely blame the incompetence of officials in various parts of Fujian!" ……”

Emperor Wanli became even more angry when he heard this, and swept away the folds on the several cases in front of him with a flick, pointing at Shen Yi and angrily reprimanding: "Until now, you still want to deceive me!" Shen Aiqing, Shen Yizhong, who is guarding Zhangnan Province and participating in politics on the right, is Brother Ling, do you dare to say that you don't know anything about the situation in Fujian? ! ……”

The courtiers rarely saw Emperor Wanli make such a big fire, and they were all so frightened that they all fell to their knees and shouted in unison: "Holy Lord, please calm your anger!" Shen always didn't dare to argue anymore, he wanted to argue again, if Emperor Wanli was the first to take Shen Yizhong, he knelt on the ground and broke out in a cold sweat.

At this time, Guo Zhiyuan, the only one who did not kneel at the scene, suddenly said unhurriedly: "The Holy Lord has ever thought that the imperial court's maritime ban policy is not strict, according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, he built a big ship with more than three masts, took prohibited goods to the sea, went to Fanguo to buy and sell, infiltrated the pirates, conspired to gather, and robbed the good people as a guide. Those who build sea ships to sell and raze people for profit will be banned from the army to fund the enemy, so they will leak the military law, behead the leader, and send the army for the servant! But why do they keep banning? ……”

Emperor Wanli was stunned for a moment, he really didn't think about this question, the forbidden sea is a national policy set by Zhu Yuanzhang, questioning the correctness of the forbidden sea is equivalent to questioning his ancestors, he naturally won't think about this kind of problem, Guo Zhiyuan saw Emperor Wanli's expression and knew that his words had an effect, and hurriedly raised his voice and continued: "The so-called hustle and bustle in the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and it is precisely because of the high profits of sea trade that so many people would rather risk killing their heads to go to sea, and even sell the country, Collusion with the Wokos! Now that the imperial treasury is empty, but it guards the treasure mountain and does not take it, but instead gives the huge profits of the sea trade to those unscrupulous profiteers and robbers, is this the work of a wise man?! ……”

Listening to Guo Zhiyuan's words, Emperor Wanli is actually a little tempted, he is indeed too short of silver now, but he is still a little hesitant, the forbidden sea is a national policy set by Zhu Yuanzhang, if it is changed in his hands, it will be infamous for violating the ancestral teachings, so Emperor Wanli's face is uncertain, and he touched the beard on his chin and said with some hesitation: "But this ancestral law cannot be abolished!" ……”

At this moment, Guo Zhiyuan didn't know how to hurry up and strike while the iron was hot, and hurriedly said: "Shengshang, the law of the ancestors cannot be abolished, but it can be flexible, the forbidden sea is set by Emperor Taizu, but when it comes to Emperor Chengzu, although the imperial court still implements the sea ban, it makes Zheng He go to the West seven times, and only then can all countries come to the Yongle prosperous era, this is flexible!" Dongfan and inland is not connected, you might as well take Dongfan as a special zone, open the sea ban, through the sea trade, this is also a kind of flexibility, if it really works, it is a great thing for me to Ming! ……”

Shen Li is the most upright and patriotic, as long as he supports things that are beneficial to the country, plus Guo Zhiyuan has had in-depth communication with him before, and has thoroughly analyzed the benefits of opening the sea ban and opening up sea trade, so he immediately stood up and said: "The old minister thinks that what Guo Zhiyuan said is reasonable, since there is already an example of Haichengyue Port, why not have one more Dongfan?!" ……”

Zhu Changluo had already tasted the sweetness just now, and he was a little bolder, and he also stood up in support: "Erchen also thinks that what Lord Guo said is feasible, there is no immutable law in the world, and now the situation is very different from when Taizu was in ...... day, and it is not a violation of the ancestral teachings for my father to make a slight change."

Shen Li and Zhu Changluo took the lead, and the ministers of the DPRK and China, who had previously been interested in the crown prince, also stood up to express their support. Shen always wanted to object, but he had just been beaten hard by Emperor Wanli, if he insisted on opposing again, the fire would burn to Shen Yizhong's head, and seeing that the ministers who supported him had already accounted for the majority, Emperor Wanli was also obviously moved, even if he was against it, it would be useless, so he could only swallow his anger and remain silent, but the cold light in his eyes kept flickering, and he didn't know what to think.

Seeing that so many ministers expressed their support, Emperor Wanli just pushed the boat down the river, waved his hand and said, "Okay, then this one is also approved!" Guo Zhiyuan, you should be satisfied! ……”

Guo Zhiyuan finally achieved what he wanted, naturally he was overjoyed, with the three conditions promised by Emperor Wanli, he could show his strength in Dongfan, and hurriedly expressed his loyalty: "Thank you Shengshang Longen, Weichen will definitely live up to the trust of the Sheng, and will definitely build Dongfan into a rich treasure island and earn more taxes and silver for the imperial court......"

Emperor Wanli glanced at Guo Zhiyuan, who was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Guo Zhiyuan, you can be regarded as setting a precedent for our dynasty, and you are in charge of the government at such a young age, but you are younger after all, and you are afraid that you will not be able to take charge of the east alone, so I asked the officials to select a few old and serious talents to be your adjutant, how about it?" ……”

Guo Zhiyuan sighed in his heart, Emperor Wanli is going to mix sand with Dongfan, it seems that Emperor Wanli still can't believe himself, but this is also what it should mean, Emperor Wanli is the best at playing balance, naturally it is impossible to hand over such a large piece of territory in Dongfan to himself alone, and he must not refuse, if he refuses, he is afraid that Emperor Wanli will immediately become suspicious of himself, and hurriedly said: "The talents selected by the Ministry must be extremely capable, and someone shares the responsibility for Weichen, and Weichen can't ask for it...... However, in this quelling the rebellion, some of Wechen's subordinates have made meritorious contributions, and they also asked the Holy Lord to reward them with one and a half positions, so that Weichen's subordinates will be cold to Wechen......"
