Secretly stuffed a silver ticket for the eunuch on duty, and the privy envoy of the Han Dynasty Ordnance and Grain Statistics Ya' Gate, Wang Shirong, successfully obtained the communication.

In fact, according to his power and status, there is no need to pretend to be 'sexual' about these eunuchs, and as far as Wang Shirong knows, the king of Han himself seems to have a certain innate 'nature' aversion to the profession of eunuchs, and the reason why these cripples are retained now is because of the insistence of the ministers of the court, and the king of Han is unwilling to make trouble with the ministers in such small matters, and the other reason is that many of these eunuchs do have considerable craftsmanship - this kind of craftsmanship is very different from the skills of ordinary craftsmen among the people, and it refers to the ability to serve people.

As the head of the secret police of the Lin Han Empire, Wang Shirong certainly knew these things, in fact, out of curiosity, he even went to see it himself, there are indeed many strange people among the eunuchs left by the Qing court, compared with ordinary people, they are deferential and abnormal, absolutely well-behaved, good at observing words and 'colors', and what is even more shocking is that they have a whole set of theories to figure out the psychological changes of 'women', which are easy to please. Although this group is generally illiterate, there are highly skilled chefs, gourmets with keen taste buds, silk experts who are good at discerning silk experts, craftsmen who are good at clocks, enamels, snuff bottle paintings, etc., and even people who are good at catching cicadas, raising 'flowers', being good at makeup and combing hair, etc., and the strange shapes of the 'color' and 'color' are by no means imaginable to ordinary people.

Therefore, after some twists and turns, the Han Dynasty of Zhongnanhai finally decided to retain a large number of eunuchs as servants to serve the Han Dynasty's family, as long as the number of royal families, and the eunuch system of the Han Dynasty is undoubtedly greatly inferior in terms of scale and quality compared with the original Forbidden City. The number of people has been sharply reduced from a few thousand to more than four hundred, and most of them are skilled eunuchs, and as for the other ordinary old and weak, they have already been assigned to the Shuntian Mansion as miscellaneous servants to do some dirty cleaning work in the city.

In view of the examples of previous dynasties, although Wang Shirong is very powerful, he definitely does not dare to take lightly the eunuchs in the Han Palace, although they are not valued by the lord at this moment, and their status is also humble, but this does not become a reason for them to be ignored - Wei Zhongxian and others in the past, aren't they also as humble as a wild dog?!

When Wang Shirong saw Lin Feng, he immediately keenly noticed that the lord's temperament was not very good, the hairpin on his head was slightly scattered and chaotic, and there were a few bloodshots in his eyes. Wang Shirong secretly sighed unlucky, knowing that the lord must be in a bad mood at this time, and when he saw him at this time, he didn't know if he would touch the mold.

"Minister, Wang Shirong, the privy envoy of the 'gate' of the Ordnance and Grain Statistics, has seen the lord!!"

"Hmm......" Lin Feng's nose snorted lightly, turned his head, and beckoned, "Ji Yun is here?!" Come on, sit here! ”

Wang Shirong is a close favorite minister, so Lin Feng is in the inner room to meet him, this room is not a formal office space, but a place to rest next to the 'flower' garden, a big kang across the room, occupying most of the space, there is no desk bench, at this time Lin Feng sat on the edge of the kang, leaning on a table of eight immortals, on the table stacked at random a stack of folds and four treasures of the study.

Following Lin Feng's greeting, Wang Shirong respectfully kowtowed, and sat down on the edge of the kang on the opposite side - this set of actions he did very usually, but in fact, in the current Han court, this kind of reception is of very high standard, it can be said that in addition to him Wang Shirong, only Li Guangdi, Chen Menglei, Zhou Peigong, Rick or cronies and generals such as Ma Ying who go out of town and other places can enjoy it, and ordinary ministers can enjoy it regardless of their official rank and prestige, even if they are cattle like Gu Yanwu, they can't enjoy it.

Without letting Wang Shirong dig out his mind to guess, Lin Feng casually put aside the folds and took the initiative to say, "Ji Yun, do you know whose these folds are?!" ”

"Back to the lord, the minister doesn't know!"

"It's Zhang Shu 'Yu', the governor of Nuergan, Xu Xueqian, the secretary of the ministry, and Chen Tingjing, the secretary of the household department," Lin Feng stretched out his hands, massaged vigorously near the sun's temples', shook his head and said, "They played together, saying that they were not in good health, please beg for bones!" ”

Wang Shirong was silent, among the three ministers, Xu Xueqian was the oldest, sixty-two years old this year, and the other two were only in their forties, basically belonging to the golden years of their careers.

"Do you know what they're all about?!"

"Back to the lord, the minister knows, it should be for the sake of the government of the greater Han Qianzhuang of Lord Lang Xu," Wang Shirong nodded and admitted frankly, "This matter is very discussed outside, and there are many explanations, and it seems that there is a lot of trouble!" ”

"Yes, I know!" Lin Feng smiled bitterly, and then a large number of recitals on the one-word table, "These are all discussions, a small half of them are resignations, and the other half are admonishments, many of them are very 'excited', saying that I have been hit by Gu and want to carry the coffin to Zhongnanhai, and some people want me to kill Xu Danyang, otherwise he will cut him himself......"

Wang Shirong looked at it in amazement, looked at it in a daze, was silent for a long time, and said with a wry smile, "This matter is ...... The matter ...... It's really ......," he shook his head, silent.

"Ji Yun, you have always been smart and wise, and you are my humerus," Lin Feng turned his head, looked at Wang Shirong, and said sincerely, "What do you think of this matter?!" ”

"This ...... cough, cough ......" Wang Shirong couldn't help but shrink his body, and said with a dry cough, "Despicable officials, this is a major government of the court, and non-ministers can ask about it...... I hope that the lord will be arbitrary! ……”

The older the real rivers and lakes, the less courageous he is, I think that when the monarch and the ministers first met, he was still Wu Sangui's envoy, in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, pointing out the rivers and mountains and talking eloquently, with a three-inch tongue, Lin Feng and the ministers were damaged to nothing, what a majestic and heroic hair, but now he didn't even dare to say a word.

Lin Feng sighed in his heart and waved his hand, "It's okay, I want to hear your thoughts." ”

"Yes," Wang Shirong nodded, groaned for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Dare to ask the lord, what do you say about Li Xiang (note: Li Guangdi is no longer the Han Dynasty's prime minister, but a scholar of the first auxiliary university, and the so-called 'Li Xiang' is a polite statement?!) ”

"Jin Qing didn't speak," Lin Feng waved his hand, "He is the pillar of the imperial court, don't blame him, he has his difficulties, and it is difficult to talk between me and the ministers!" ”

"The lord is magnanimous!" This time it was not a compliment, Lin Feng was so considerate of the minister, Wang Shirong was indeed sincerely moved, "The minister thinks that the lord may have some ...... in this matter Some...... That reckless......"

"It's a little." Lin Feng nodded in agreement, although he expected it, but the rebound was so violent, but it was also unexpected.

"What did you all say?!"

"They said in the compromises that I am Mingshenzong, and Xu Danyang is one of those eunuchs who occupy land and minerals everywhere, and they are 'chaotic' and villains, and they want to be killed!" Lin Feng suddenly smiled, pointed to his nose and said, "Do you say that the widow is like the Ming God Sect?!" ”

Wang Shirong shook his head and smiled, "The lord is majestic and strategic, naturally not comparable to a mediocre lord like the Mingshen Sect," he thought for a while, "In fact, according to the ministers, the lord should take charge of the money village this time, is he going to take the financial power into the hands of the royal family?!" ”

This sentence was asked very abruptly and boldly, Lin Feng couldn't help but be stunned, turned his head and glared at Wang Shirong, hesitated for a long time, but finally eased his face, nodded and admitted, "That's right, in fact, the original intention of opening a money bank was to facilitate the country's commercial operations, but when I heard Xu Danyang say it, I also thought about it." ”

"The lord relies on the ministers as his confidants, and the ministers will not dare to hide it!" Wang Shirong's face was 'pale', "In fact, the ministers also generally understand that the lord should plan for the future, so as not to be controlled by the ministers." ”

"Well," Lin Feng nodded slowly, "You know, my guards are not the army of the imperial court, they are the legions of the widowed royal family, although those people say that the guards and the Han army are brothers to each other, and the military needs can be integrated without distinguishing between high and low, but who can know what will happen in the future?!" He sighed, "Besides, even if you ascend the throne as the emperor and reign over the world in the future, so what, building a palace and doing a little thing must be restricted by your subordinates......"

He smiled bitterly, "I don't imagine that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty would be a wreck in the courtyard of the deep palace. ”

Wang Shirong nodded understandingly, in fact, since he became the head of the secret police, he has long positioned himself as Lin Feng's servant, not the minister of the court, hearing Lin Feng's worries, he also empathized, "In fact, the minister also thinks the same - but the lord must also worry, according to the minister, the lord is the founding king, so powerful, there should be no such reproach in this future!" ”

"Who knows?!" Lin Feng glanced at Wang Shirong, "Is Qi Huan Gong mighty?" How did he die?! - I still have to look for such examples one by one?! ”

"What does the lord mean that you should have financial and military power outside the imperial treasury?!" Wang Shirong thought for a while, "Could it be that you want to use your internal money to pay the guards?" Not subject to the orders of the imperial court?! ”

Lin Feng squinted his eyes and nodded with a smile, "It's no problem to use the money from the treasury now, the guards are still mine, but after a long time, who can know?" What will happen when I'm old and dead?! ”

"I understand," Wang Shirong nodded, "Actually, your lords may not object to this ...... This idea, they should be against Lord Xu, secondly, ......" He secretly glanced at Lin Feng, "Secondly, the non-micro-ministers framed the minister again, and the trade 'servant' Lang is 'selfish', and the lords in the court are not convinced!" ”

"I know—who doesn't have a 'selfish' heart?!" Lin Feng snorted, "He's just a businessman, and he's still a businessman as an official, and he wants to make money from me - but I also want money, and the widow can cooperate with him!" ”

"The lord forgives the sin, Rao Weichen said bluntly, this matter is not trivial, if you act rashly, the minister may have an unforeseen disaster!" Wang Shirong said solemnly, "In fact, the minister thinks that the lord's worries are a little too cautious, and now the Han is thriving and dominating the world, only in the morning and night, all the people in the world, everything in the world, what is not yours, why do you bother to do this?!" ”

"Well," Lin Feng smiled bitterly, "It stands to reason that this is the case, maybe it's a little too much - but listening to Xu Danyang's statement, as soon as the Han Royal Money House opens, the widow can bypass the cabinet, the household department, and the imperial court, and directly control a large amount of money, which is really a bit reluctant!" ”

"The lord is so confused!" Wang Shirong couldn't help but sigh, "If you really think so, then it's really not far from the Mingshen Sect!" His face was flushed, he arched his hand, and said slightly angrily, "You are the king of the Han Dynasty, and you will be the emperor of Huaxia in the future - what do you want money for?!" ”

Lin Feng hesitated, was silent for a while, turned his head and said, "I have already agreed to Xu Danyang in this matter." He gritted his teeth and said, "I do things, I have always not hit the south wall or look back, this source of wealth, I am going to decide!" ”

Wang Shirong shook his head and smiled bitterly, "The lord is too stubborn!" He thought for a moment and added, "If you really want to do that, you're going to have to do a lot of work!" ”

"What's the Zhou Zhangfa?!"

"The target of the lords in the court is Xu Danyang, not you, so the lord has to block their mouths!" Wang Shirong said in a deep voice, "Actually, they shouldn't be against the opening of a money bank by the imperial court, nor will they be too opposed to you grabbing financial power, and the grievances of the people's hearts should be in the Taifeng ticket number!" He smiled and stretched out three fingers, "Measure the country's financial resources, and Xu's three percent, so blessed, how can he Xu Danyang be able to afford it-isn't he afraid that if he stands on the cusp of the 'waves' for a long time, he will be raided and destroyed?!" ”

Lin Feng's heart sank, and he looked at it in amazement, "What does Ji Yun mean?" ……”

"In fact, in addition to the anger of all the adults, other ticket numbers, money banks, and consortia outside are equal to Xu Danyang's dominance, and there are many resentments, so the lord can use it!" Wang Shirong smiled and said, "Didn't the lord allow the Chamber of Commerce consortium in his early years and order them to prepare a 'Han Commercial Tax Law Committee'?" As far as the minister knows, there are many wealthy businessmen here, so the minister thinks that if the lord decides to take charge of the financial resources outside the treasury, he can change Xu Danyang's doctrine! ”

Lin Feng was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at Wang Shirong with a smile on his face, and said knowingly, "What do you mean-the interests are evenly distributed?!" ”

"Exactly!" Wang Shirong nodded and said with a smile, "The principal of Qianzhuang is 12 million taels, don't take one tael from the lord, and prepare an edict to the businessmen of the 'Dahan Commercial Tax Law and Decree Committee', and explain to them that you account for seventy percent of the money village, and the thirty percent originally given to Lord Xu will be divided by the merchants of the whole world!" He stroked his chin and said proudly, "Borrowing 'chickens' to lay eggs - this is called 'making something out of nothing'!" ”

Lin Feng was greatly satisfied, nodded and praised, "A good move made out of nothing, Ji Yun is worthy of being a widow's brainchild!" - But I'm afraid that Zhang Shu 'Jade' these people will still disagree! ”

Wang Shirong had already prepared, and his 'chest' was ready, "This is also the master's 'flower' mind!" He shook his head, "Our Han official system imitates the former Ming Dynasty, although it is rich and talented, but the officials are not high, according to the minister's will, the lord can take out two of your seventy percent of the benefits, and the life is 'raising incorruptible silver', under the grace, all over the government and the opposition, so that it can not only subdue the hearts of the people, but also rectify the rule of officials, and alleviate the corruption of officialdom!! ”

It is indeed a good idea, to cast the net out, tie the emperor, merchants, and officials together, and the big guys stand on the same line and sit on the ground to share the spoils according to the size of their power, which is really satisfying. Lin Feng nodded again and again, his heart suddenly opened, and he laughed at the moment, "This king has long had this intention - Ji Yun really knows me." ”

Wang Shirong gave up his hand again and again, and thanked him, "Don't dare, don't dare, the lord is smart and wise, and the ministers are ugly - if the above two things are implemented, then this big Han money village should be jointly managed by all parties!" ”

"Condominium ?!!"

"That's nature!" Wang Shirong nodded, and said, "Lord Lang Xu, the 'servant' of commerce, is a member of the imperial court, and he should be in a proper position, and secondly, the 'door' of the household department appoints capable officials to sit in the town, and again, the shareholders of the Han Law Committee send skilled account rooms, courtiers, and men to help the idle according to the size of the equity, so that people can be pleasing and convincing, so as to show that the lord is graceful and generous, and he is fair and square!" ”

"Good! That's it—if there's any trouble, then ask Xu Danyang to ponder," Lin Feng clapped his palms, and the 'attendant' outside the 'door' immediately opened the 'door' curtain and knelt down, "Please command!" ”

"Pass the Hanlin Academy, draft an edict, approve the recital of Governor Zhang, Xu Shangshu, Chen Shangshu and others, please resign, give a month of leave, and recuperate," Lin Feng smiled, and suddenly felt that this step didn't seem to be enough, so he simply went to the end at the moment, "In addition, go to the Tai Hospital and talk to the Tai Doctor, prescribe a few prescriptions, and a few lonely ministers will 'work' for state affairs, and even the sick, reward ginseng, deer antler, He Shou Wu, and give them tonic!" ”

When the 'attendant' retreated, Lin Fengshang was a little unsatisfied, and turned his head to look at Wang Shirong, "Ji Yun came today, it's not for the affairs of Dahan Qianzhuang, right?!" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare—who is the minister? How dare you speculate on the great affairs of the imperial court?! Wang Shirong hurriedly got up, knelt on the ground, 'pulled' a letter from his sleeve, and presented it with both hands, "Back to the lord, the minister is here today for the Shandong military!" ”
