Chapter 772: Little Pig Rides

Zhang Xuan was born in a poor family and was not a vested interest in the "land annexation", so he supported Qingtianzhuang and the re-clearing of land, but he was not very enthusiastic about lifting the sea ban. But it doesn't matter, the so-called enemy of the enemy is a friend, since Xu Jin and Yang Tinghe did it directly, he is naturally willing to help. If the Yang Party can be thwarted again on the matter of opening the sea ban, then Yang Tinghe's prestige will definitely plummet, and the morale of the Yang Party will be even lowered.

So Zhang Xuan made a decisive move, only to hear him say eloquently: "As Yang Ge Lao said, agriculture and mulberry are indeed the foundation of the country, but light taxes may not make the people rich." Just as there is a folk saying, it is said that relying on the mountain eats the mountain, and the sea eats the sea. Therefore, the lower officials thought that in addition to light taxes and light labor, they should also take measures according to local conditions and implement policies according to the city. For example, if there is a coal mine in the local area, the people can make a living by mining; Originally, there were rivers and lakes, and the people could fish for a living; Locally, near the sea, the people can boil salt and fish for business.

Those who are familiar with the local area know that the soil in Haibin Prefecture is not suitable for farming, and the coastal people can only beg for food from the sea. If the sea is strictly forbidden and no slice is allowed to go to the sea, the coastal people will have no way to live, and no matter how light the taxes and forced labor are, they will not be able to survive. As the saying goes, the people take food as the sky, and if the people can't eat, they will inevitably take risks, and it is not surprising that they go to sea to be thieves. Therefore, Xia Guan thought that it was necessary to lift the sea ban. ”

As soon as Zhang Xuan's words ended, Mao Cheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, snorted coldly and refuted: "It's ridiculous, my Ming Dynasty has a vast territory, and there are thousands of ways for the people to forage for food and make a living, will they starve to death if they don't go to sea to fish?" Take the salt goods along the coast as an example, how lucrative is it, can't they feed the people? ”

Xia Yan frowned and said, "Don't you know that my Daming salt goods have always been monopolized by the government?" Except for the stove households, other people are not allowed to boil the sea for salt without permission. Even the salt cooked by the stove households had to be purchased by the government, and under the layers of exploitation, it was not even possible to maintain a family's livelihood, and many of the people who went to sea to become thieves were stove households. ”

It is said that there is an unwritten rule in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, that is, non-Jinshi cannot enter the Hanlin, and non-Hanlin is not allowed to enter the cabinet, so most of the ministers and ministers of the Ming Dynasty are born with a pen, have no experience in local politics, do not understand the people's livelihood and suffering, and are very ungrounded. For example, Mao Cheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, has not let go of the outside, and has been an official in Beijing, from the Hanlin compilation step by step to the Ministry of Rites, how can such an official formulate policies that meet the needs of the people's livelihood?

Therefore, at this time, Mao Cheng was choked by Xia Yan and was speechless, fortunately, Yang Ge Lao immediately stood up to save the scene for this right-hand man and said: "What Xia said can only show that the local officials are not clear, and we must strengthen governance and prevent officials from exploiting the people." In addition, once the sea is opened to trade, the common people and merchants will inevitably flock to the country when they see that it is profitable, and the trade will flourish and the fields will be abandoned, which will inevitably hurt the foundation of the country. Therefore, lifting the sea ban is a move to abandon the original and the last, and it is not enough to take it! ”

In this way, everyone started a fierce debate word by word, and officials from the upstart faction joined in support of the opening of the sea ban, and the old faction was not far behind,-for-tat.

As a result, the dispute over the ban on opening the sea evolved into a dispute between the upstart faction and the Puyi faction, Xu Jin seemed to have become the leader of the upstart faction, and the two factions sprayed each other fiercely in front of the Fengtian Temple for more than an hour, and it was estimated that saliva could wet the ground several times, and as a result, the two factions fought equally, and everyone's throat smoked.

Xu Jin smashed his dry tongue, both annoyed and surprised, annoyed by the stubbornness of the old school, and surprised that there were so many officials supporting him, which was completely different from the situation when he first proposed the ban on opening the sea, which made Xu Jin see the hope of success. Xu Jin even felt that if Xia Yan had planned with him in advance, maybe he would have lifted the sea ban today.

At this time, the sun had risen to the middle of the sky, and it seemed that it was close to noon, and the fierce sun made the skin faintly painful, Zhu Houxi's kid was obviously a little unable to sit still, and the dragon's ass was twisting on the throne, and finally let Bi Gonggong order a truce to retreat from the dynasty. So the officials of the two factions dispersed to recuperate, prepared ammunition, and continued to fight again tomorrow.

…………

The afternoon sun was still fierce, the autumn tiger was wantonly releasing its aftermath, and the three or five autumn cicadas in the garden trees were still howling heartbreakingly. Under the shade of the osmanthus tree, Xu Shilang, who was dressed "revealing", was sleeping comfortably on a recliner with a faint aroma of wine, obviously having just drunk.

The two twin maids of early spring and early summer waited quietly, early spring holding a drawing fan in her hand, gently driving away mosquitoes and flies around her, while early summer was buried in needlework.

In the afternoon, the sunshine, the flowers hit people, the pink butterflies fluttered and stayed, a pair of twin beauties and beautiful women were picturesque, and life couldn't be more beautiful.

It can be seen that a short-sleeved T-shirt is being sewn in early summer, the style is the same as what Xu Jin is wearing at the moment, and a strange pink pig's head is also embroidered on the chest.

Early Spring and Early Summer don't understand why the old man likes to embroider a strange pig's head on his clothes, oh yes, this strange pig's head has a strange name, called Peppa Pig.

At this moment, the maidservant girl named Xiaocui rushed into the courtyard in a panic and said, "Sister Chuxia, it's ...... outside."

As soon as Xiaocui finished speaking, he saw a group of people crossing the courtyard gate, and the first one was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, dressed as a scholar, wearing a square scarf, so handsome that even women were jealous, it was Jiajing Emperor Zhu Houxi. The kid was very coquettish and clinging to a gold-painted folding fan, shaking it and laughing as he walked this way.

Zhu Houxi was a frequent visitor to Xu Mansion, and Chu Chun and Chu Xia naturally recognized him, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly stood up to salute, but was stopped by Zhu Houxi's gestures.

Zhu Houxi walked under the osmanthus tree with a folding fan, glanced at Xu Jin who was sleeping soundly on the recliner, and almost couldn't help laughing, pointed to Xu Jin's chest, and asked in a funny whisper: "In early spring and early summer, what is the embroidery on your master's chest?" Pig? ”

"Peppa Pig!" Hatsuharu replied crampedly.

Zhu Houxi was stunned and said, "What is worthy of riding?" ”

Early Summer repeated: "It's Peppa Pig, it's the old man who said it, it's called Peppa Pig!" ”

Zhu Houxi almost fell down: "The little pig is worthy of riding, what a messy name, could it be that your master is tired of riding a horse and fighting, and wants to change the pig to ride?" ”

The few little eunuchs who accompanied him wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, for fear of waking up the Marquis of Jinghai, so their faces turned red. In early summer, he said: "The emperor should ask the master himself, how can the maid know." ”

Zhu Houxi glanced at Xu Jin who was sleeping soundly, and finally gave up his plan to wake him up, and chatted with Chu Chun Chu Chun for a few more words, but the pair of twin pretty maids always looked sincerely scared, and they were really boring.

"I'll go to the study to read a book for a while, and your master will wake up and inform me!" Zhu Houxi dropped a sentence and shook the folding fan and walked to the study.

Seeing that Emperor Jiajing went to the study with the eunuchs and guards, he dared to sit down again in early spring and early summer, but in early spring, he suddenly woke up to something, his pretty face turned white, and blurted out: "Miss Zhi'er!" ”

In the early summer, her face also changed greatly, but she forgot that Miss Zhi'er was studying in the master's study at the moment, so she chased after her. It's just that when Chu Xia chased to the study, he found that Emperor Jiajing had already entered the study, the door was closed, and several guards led by Lu Bing were guarding outside the study.

"Lu Qianhu, my Miss Zhi'er is inside, I'm afraid it will scare the Holy Driver!" Hatsu reminded a little anxiously.

Lu Bing waved his hand and said politely: "Don't panic, girl in early summer, we know, the emperor asked us to stay outside and not disturb." ”

In the early summer, I wandered in front of the study for a while, but I didn't hear any movement inside, so I walked away nervously.
