At the end of the thirteenth year of Yongle, it was not very calm for the entire Ming Dynasty.

First of all, Xu Qin, the Duke of Wei, was inexplicably grounded and punished for half a year - this punishment is not heavy, but if it is light, it is definitely not light, at least it means that Zhu Laosi is already seriously dissatisfied, and if it goes further, it may be a punishment such as removal of the knight.

Immediately afterwards, he sent the lieutenant to Ryukyu on the order, and reprimanded the king of Zhongshan Sishao fiercely, and he didn't even go through the polite process, and the Ryukyu envoy Zhijialu and a group of servants were beheaded.

As for why Naojialu went crazy, why he attacked and killed the guards and robbed the clothes of the lieutenant, no one cares about this kind of thing anymore, anyway, it must be Naojialu, and it can only be Naojialu.

Otherwise, it was Zhu Laosi's house slave who made the mistake?

Then, Zhu Laosi also made two somewhat inexplicable wills, first ordering Minchuan, Xining, Lintao, and Lintao to elect 5,600 people to go to Shuntianfu to practice, and then urged the household department to quickly redefine the fish scale books and yellow books.

For everyone, Zhu Laosi's actions at the end of the thirteenth year of Yongle undoubtedly released a very important signal to the outside world.

Zhu Laosi was very dissatisfied.

From the beginning of the thirteenth year of Yongle to the end of the thirteenth year of Yongle, this signal has become more and more obvious, and even the meaning of wanting to move the capital is becoming more and more obvious, not even like before, but there is still some secretive meaning.

Regarding the signal released by Zhu Laosi, who can't see these bigwigs who can live in the court?

Hu Guang sat on the chair, not as dry as an ordinary old man, but with some ruddy hands kept brushing his beard, the whole person looked a little distracted, and others couldn't see through what Hu Guang was thinking in his heart.

After a long time, Jin Youzi spoke: "Now that there are many things in the border market, the yellow book, taxes, and all kinds of things, Your Majesty directly ordered someone to kill the Ryukyu envoys, and the sage's mind is really becoming more and more difficult to fathom. ”

Old God Hu Guang snorted and said: "We are courtiers, and our duty is to assist the king, Kuang Zheng Chaogang, as for the mind of the saint, it is not something we can ponder. ”

With a secret sigh in his heart, Jin Youzi simply sneered: "Right now, there are just three of us, and there is not even a small house, why do you Hu Ge Lao put on such an appearance?" ”

Hu Guang squinted his eyes and looked at Jin Youzi, stroked his beard and said, "Then what does you mean by the old Jin Ge?" Could it be that the state has a demon in the country, should we wait for the righteous death festival? ”

Hu Guang's words made the atmosphere solemn again.

Everyone is not a hard bone, otherwise they should have learned from Wang Gen to die in the first place, and how to get into the high position of being the elder of the court.

Hu Guang hummed lightly, and said with half-squinted eyes: "In the three years of Yongle, there are 7.69 million households in the world, and 51.52 million mouths.

In the tenth year of Yongle, there are more than 9.2 million households in the world, more than 63 million mouths, and there has been no change in the yellow book data for ten consecutive years. ”

Jin Youzi was furious and snorted coldly: "What are you watching me do? Could it be that I Jin someone conjured up these dings?

If you just say that Dingkou suddenly increased so many problems, then why didn't you mention the autumn tax in the thirteenth year of Yongle? Now that the surge in commercial taxes has far exceeded the people's taxes, so much so that the saints dare to issue such an edict that they will never be added. What does this mean, don't you Hu Ge understand? ”

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little stiff, Yang Shiqi couldn't help but open his mouth to persuade: "The three of us are not outsiders, so you might as well spread out and say anything if you have anything to say." ”

Seeing that Hu Guang and Jin Yougai didn't speak, although Yang Shiqi scolded in his heart, he still spoke first: "Now this situation, we can all see it clearly, the main reason is because of the six champions of the Yang family Zhuangzi." ”

Jin Youzi snorted and said, "That's right, these things are all caused by him. But then again, this person's holy family is Zhenglong, and even Wei Guogong was grounded and fined because of him, could it be that you, Yang Ge Lao, still have a way to deal with him? ”

Yang Shiqi shook his head and said: "Yang Zhuangyuan does have the talent of Zaifu, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is my Ming Dynasty's Optimus Jade Pillar, and it is not an exaggeration to erect the golden beam of the sea, it is a model for my generation to follow, why should I deal with him?" ”

Yang Shiqi's words fell, and Hu Guang's eyes that were still squinting flashed with a fine light, and he sneered and said: "Yang Zhuangyuan was in charge of the border city with the Tatars, and he sent envoys to Gongma several times in a row with King Arutai, and he also praised Yang Zhuangyuan in a book. ”

Yang Shiqi smiled: "Yes, that's right. This Yang is crazy in Shuntian Mansion for a day, and His Majesty is in Yangjia Zhuangzi for a day, and in the long run, the Yang family Zhuangzi has become a small court, do you want me to go to the Yang family Zhuangzi to live? ”

Jin Youzi couldn't help but mock: "Now that Yang Family Zhuangzi has become a good place, I don't know how many people want to squeeze into it, but I'm afraid that if I want to go, then Yang Family Zhuangzi can't tolerate me waiting." ”

Hu Guang got up and fiddled with the candle flame and said with a smile: "Let's not mention the Yang family Zhuangzi, just talk about the matter of this city, which is now a major event of the national dynasty, and I was elected to send capable officials to preside over it."

Whether it was to discuss the border market before, or to preside over the flood in Liaozhou, Yang Zhuangyuan had already proved his ability, and now he went to Wanquan Youwei to preside over the border city, which was also a proper meaning. ”

Jin Youzi shook his head and said, "It's good that I'm waiting, but what about the others? What will Li Hexuan and Xia Yuanji's two old puppets choose? ”

Hu Guang hummed and said, "It's okay." Li Hexuan thinks about telling the old man every day, and he has never been very involved in these things, and Xia Yuanji is not worried about guarding the one-third of an acre of land in the household department. ”

After a pause, Hu Guang continued: "Even if Xia Yuanji chooses to stand on Yang's crazy side, it is actually not a matter of worrying - what does Xia Yuanji care about?" As soon as the border market opens, if there is no capable person to preside over it, I am afraid that there will be another war, will Xia Yuanji be willing to pay this money from the treasury?

If Yang is crazy to preside over the affairs of the border market, not to mention whether the treasury will be filled because of this, just a safe one is enough to impress Xia Lao. ”

Jin Youzi said again: "What about Your Majesty? His Majesty treats this son like a grandson, but will he be willing to go to Wanquan? ”

Hu Guang sneered, lowered his voice and said: "Do you know that Your Majesty often dislikes that Yang is crazy like a salted fish, and only thinks about sleeping in the Yang family Zhuangzi every day and waiting for death, but I am afraid that I have long thought about finding something for him." ”

Yang Shiqi also nodded and said: "Yes, I have also heard about this matter, since the founding of the country, the emperor can be scolded as a rice worm salted fish, and only this Yang madman has this honor." ”

Jin Youzi always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't think of anything wrong, so he had no choice but to nod and say: "Then it's up to you, go back and let the people below go to your majesty, and get this Yang crazy out of the right guard, so that you can't see it and don't worry about it." ”

Hu Guang nodded, stroked his beard and said, "That's right." His Majesty lives in the middle, and Yang is crazy outside, as long as he is not given the opportunity to face the saint, he is a strong saint, I am afraid that there will be a day when it fades, Xie Jin is not the best example. ”

As soon as he heard Hu Guang mention Xie Jin, Jin Youzi's face was a little unhappy, and he said lightly: "What else do you mention him doing?" Now that it's almost a year old, we might as well talk about something festive. ”

……

Yang Shaofeng looked at Wuxin with a confused expression, his face full of disbelief: "Me? Perfect right guard? And I didn't get promoted this time, I was waiting to be recruited from the ninth grade, but under my hands was a bunch of subordinates from the fifth rank to the ninth grade? ”

His mother, this son is still wondering, why did Zhu Laosi suddenly run back to Xingzai with the prince and Zhu Gaochi, it turned out that he threw this son into a big trouble, and he didn't have the face to see me!

After snorting secretly in his heart, Yang Shaofeng continued: "Does Your Majesty have any other orders?" ”

Unintentionally smiled dryly: "No, Your Majesty said, what to do, what can't be done, you should know it in your heart, and he won't say anything more." ”

Yang Shaofeng snorted and said, "What's going on in the border city?" There hasn't been much movement since the first negotiation with Timur, so what's going on this time? ”

Wuxin said: "What else can happen, a border market is not as simple as you said to knock down the Yang family Zhuangzi and rebuild it, just the site selection can be involved for a period of time, plus the construction of the border city and the transfer of guards, this back and forth, isn't it delayed until now." ”

Yang Shaofeng was suddenly very unhappy, and couldn't help but snort: "Just one border market can drag on from May to the end of the year, and I don't know what those people in the household department and the ministry of industry are doing." ”

Wuxin said: "You be quiet! ”

looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "Let's say something from the heart, it's nothing that Zhuangyuan Gong went to Wanquan Right Guard, Ji Gang didn't let Wu Ming leave, in fact, it has already explained a lot of things."

But there is one point, our family has to remind the champion - no matter what merit you have, you must be on the book when you should be on the book, and you must not let Your Majesty forget you! ”

Seeing Yang Shaofeng's disapproving face, Wuxin suddenly became a little anxious, and said in a low voice: "Think about Xie Jin!" The one who really hated him for not dying was actually Hu Guang! ”

Yang Shaofeng sighed twice and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, after Xie Jin greeted His Majesty, the first thing he did was to recommend Hu Guang to His Majesty, right?" ”

Seeing that Yang Shaofeng's focus was completely wrong, he couldn't help but sigh: "Look at it now, how many people in the DPRK hate you for not dying, you should always know in your heart, right?" Once Your Majesty forgets about you, you can still fight them in that place? ”

Yang Shaofeng sneered and said: "A border city can drag on for half a year, and now I am still thinking about calculating me, these waste snacks are really what they can't do, and what they eat is not enough!" ”

Seeing that Yang Shaofeng was still like this, he had no choice but to say helplessly: "Let's go back and find an opportunity to talk to Your Majesty, and see if we can let Beigong follow you to Wanquan Right Guard, so that there is one more way to reach Tianting." ”
