Chapter 027: Enwei, the omen of great prosperity
Jinyiwei stepped forward and directly took down Wang Cheng, the governor of Jiliao, and Wang Zheng hurriedly shouted: "Holy Lord, what is the crime of the minister?" ”
Xu Jie and the others were at a loss for a while, it was too sudden.
"Holy Lord, I don't know what crime General Wang has committed?"
Xu Jie spoke first.
Emperor Jiajing looked at the ministers, and then motioned to Lu Fang.
Lu Fang took out a notebook and opened it, and read: "Jinyi Wei obeys the will of the saint and secretly investigates Wang Ji." After several months of investigation, it was found that Wang Cheng was greedy for more than one million yuan of military rations, encroached on nearly 10,000 hectares of fertile land, disregarded human life, connived at the misdeeds of his own soldiers, repeatedly delayed fighters in barbarian warfare, and had no way to lead the army, risking the merits of leading the army, and framing Zhongliang...... There are many crimes, there are many human and material evidence, and the responsibility is inescapable! ”
And they were heard.
Ma Fang, who has done things under Wang Zheng, knows best about Wang Zheng's behavior, because Wang Zheng's desire and crime made him demoted in front, and the two also have a grudge.
However, Ma Fang did not fall into the ground. He understood that since the emperor began to secretly investigate Wang Cheng a few months ago, and now the evidence is ironclad, there is no need for him to say anything.
Wang Zheng was paralyzed at once, knowing that the capital crime was true, and his face was like ashes.
"Take it down!"
Emperor Jiajing said to Lu Fang.
After Lu Fang and Jin Yiwei took Wang Yi away, Gao Gong said angrily: "Holy Lord, Wang Yi is the person recommended by Yan Song, and sure enough, there are many traitors in the Yan Party. Ministers, request, to conduct a thorough investigation of other strict parties, loyal ministers are not wronged, traitors are not allowed to let go. ”
As Hu Zongxian, who is in the strict party lineage, Wang Chonggu's expression is embarrassed.
Xu Jie's heart was shocked that the emperor actually began to suspect Wang Ji a few months ago, and let Jinyiwei secretly investigate.
At the same time, I am worried that the emperor is secretly investigating them.
It's scary to think about.
Who hasn't made a mistake, or a family member or relative is doing things in their own name?
Doesn't stand up to scrutiny.
The reason why Emperor Jiajing investigated Wang Cheng and others was because he had checked some information with his mobile phone, and arranged for Jinyiwei to secretly investigate people who were likely to be big corrupt officials.
However, Emperor Jiajing would not tell the truth, and said in a different way: "There is no need to check again, I have arranged for Jinyi Wei to check all the Yan Party, whether they are loyal or traitorous, I know in my heart." ”
Then, he asked Zhang Juzheng: "Zhang Juzheng, talk about the Department of Maritime Affairs and the opening of the sea, after a few months, there should be some improvement, right?" ”
Zhang Juzheng saluted and replied: "Enlighten the saint, the establishment of the Yamen of the Maritime Affairs Department has been completed. At present, the matter of opening the sea, now Zhejiang, Fujian is trying, setting up a special customs yamen.
The people of the two places were allowed to go out to sea to fish and do business. At the same time, we will appropriately collect tariffs on tea, silk, porcelain, etc., sold overseas.
For goods entering Daming from overseas, customs duties will be charged.
These tariffs will be adjusted according to the actual situation......"
After listening to Zhang Juzheng, Emperor Jiajing said: "How much is the tariff?" I believe that 5 to 15 out of 100 is easier, and tariffs should be different for different things.
For example, silk, tea, porcelain and other valuables should be taxed higher. As far as I know, there are no such things in the West, and they are unique to me. Rare things are expensive, and naturally they cannot be sold cheaply.
In addition, food, arms, cultural relics and other items that are scarce in the Ming Dynasty, or military aircraft should be listed as prohibited items and should not be sold to other countries.
On the contrary, merchants should be encouraged to buy grain, ores and other things that our Ming needs from overseas, and for large ones, tariffs can be waived......"
What Emperor Jiajing said surprised Zhang Juzheng and them, they didn't expect that the emperor, who stayed at home, would know so much and think so far-reaching.
However, when they noticed the immortal artifact (mobile phone) in the hands of Emperor Jiajing.
Suddenly.
I thought: It must be the immortal weapon that gave the Holy Lord.
"The ministers will make arrangements as soon as possible in accordance with the holy will of the Holy Lord."
Zhang Juzheng remembered it well, wrote down everything Emperor Jiajing said, and pondered it carefully after he went back.
However, Zhang Juzheng also has some thoughts of his own: "Shengshang, the minister thinks that the Ming Dynasty should build a strong sailor, and protect the rights and interests of the people." There are pirates, pirates, and Western military forces on the sea, and there are no sailors, so it is impossible to ensure the well-being of the people brought by the opening of the sea, but there will be many fights. ”
Of course, the current Emperor Jiajing understands this truth.
He looked at Hu Zongxian, Qi Jiguang, and Yu Dayou, and said: "In this matter, the Maritime Affairs Department and Hu Zongxian will cooperate and hand it over to Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou. ”
After a pause, he looked at Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou: "Qi Jiguang, Yu Dayou." ”
"Holy."
Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou saluted.
Emperor Jiajing said: "I asked you to establish a naval division in Zhejiang and Fujian, can you do it?" ”
Yu Dayou: "The saint trusts the ministers, and the ministers will do their best!" ”
Qi Jiguang: "The minister is willing to build an invincible sailor for the Holy and Ming Dynasty, so that the power of the Holy and Ming Dynasty will spread all over the sea." ”
"Good."
Emperor Jiajing was satisfied: "I believe you can do it. If you need anything, you go directly to Hu Zongxian, and Hu Zongxian can't solve it, so you can find the cabinet. ”
Hu Zongxian came out and saluted: "Qi Qi Sheng, the imperial court gave two million anti-Japanese army silver, and the ministers and others immediately planned the sailor after returning."
The saint is wise, but the minister is not enough. With a strong navy, it is possible to defend the Japanese at sea and protect the coastal people from looting and killing. ”
Xu Jie, Gao Gong frowned secretly, and said in his heart: Hu Zongxian They have a chance to make contributions, build a sailor, they must build warships, recruit recruits for training, I don't know how much silver it will cost, in order to open the sea, for a small number of people who go to sea, is it worth it? …… Let's take one step at a time, if something goes wrong, then persuade the saint.
Wang Chonggu and Ma Fang were a little envious, most of the silver allocated by the military department was given to Hu Zongxian, and they only took some, and they could only resist the Tatar attack and could not fight back.
"Wang Chonggu, Ma Fang."
Emperor Jiajing suddenly called the names of the two people.
"The minister is here."
The two of them came out to salute.
Emperor Jiajing said, "I now appoint Ma Fang as the governor of Jiliao. ”
What the?
So suddenly!
But no one objected, because Ma Fang was indeed a suitable candidate, and he was appointed by the emperor himself.
They were surprised because it was too sudden.
Ma Fang was excited, he never expected that the emperor would suddenly appoint him as the governor of Jiliao, this is a feudal official, and he is in charge of military power.
What a trust this is, Ma Fang knelt down and thanked him: "The ministers obey the order, thank the saint for Longen." ”
Emperor Jiajing said solemnly: "This is not only a favor, but also a responsibility. I want you and Wang Chonggu to take care of the north gate of the Ming Dynasty and guard it.
At the same time, military discipline should be rectified, and it should be strictly investigated for eating utopian dreams and enclosing land. Train strong soldiers and wait for the opportunity to fight back, I thought, the territory lost by the Ming Dynasty in the past must be recovered no matter what, otherwise how will I face the ancestors and ancestors, and how will I raise my head in front of the immortals after ascending to the immortal realm! ”
The meaning of the words was understood by all.
The emperor has the heart to fight back, and when the time comes, he will counterattack and lose ground.
Hu Zongxian's heart was excited, the once holy emperor came back, and he couldn't help but kneel down: "The saint is wise, the Ming is mighty, long live my emperor, long live!" ”
Others reacted.
Hurriedly echoed: "The saint is wise, the Ming is mighty, long live my emperor, long live!" ”
The king is wise, and the ministers are dedicated, this is a sign of great prosperity!
Subsequently, Emperor Jiajing discussed specific matters with them until noon, and left them to eat together.
Let the ministers be moved and relieved.
In the end, Emperor Jiajing said: "It's almost the New Year, I wish all Aiqing a good year." Go home and reunite with your family. ”
