Chapter 288: Emergency Military Intelligence

"Teacher, students, have other things to ask, you don't want to eat first, students are waiting for you here, I'll talk about how you eat."

"In this way, I'll let them make two meals, and you can eat here with the old man, you can't starve you, my most proud disciple, that old man is a sinner."

Zhang Juzheng said as he stood up and went outside the house to tell the scribe to fetch us food, and then went back to the house and asked, "Okay, now you can talk about it, what else is going on?"

Next, I want Zhang Jingxuan to say what Zhang Juzheng said, Zhang Juzheng said after listening: "This thing can be done, but let them organize themselves, and in the end, you will have more contact with businessmen, and those imperial histories will be impeached, so you should be careful, I don't know how you deposited and exchanged yesterday, tell the old man, and the old man is too busy to ask you."

"Teacher, yesterday the total deposit of silver was 350,000 taels, and the exchange of silver was 1,300 taels, and today I also told the emperor that the emperor is very satisfied, but today's situation is not as good as yesterday, and I think it can be half of the silver from yesterday."

"It seems that you have a good start, as long as this thing is accepted by the people, the amount of silver in the future will naturally come up, you don't have to worry, take your time, and be careful of the villain making stumbling blocks, you are also standing on the cusp of the 'waves', it seems that the scenery is infinite, but in fact, it is not a good thing to walk on thin ice, and it is not a good thing to move the wind, that high arch has been lingering, and he will not stop like this, but I don't know what he will do next."

The cabinet minister and the secretary on duty in the cabinet all ate in the palace at noon, so now everyone is gone, as long as Zhang Juzheng and I say so

"Teacher, I drank with Chen Jiu last night, Chen Jiu told me a new situation, the emperor already knows that Gao Gong is the main person behind this strike, I don't think he can jump for a few days"

"Yun Jie, you underestimate Gao Gong too much, he and the emperor are not an ordinary relationship, this kind of thing will not hurt him, besides, the emperor will still use him to fight against me, before there are no new candidates for the cabinet, Gao Gong will be fine, Chen Jiu is just a eunuch, even if he is with the emperor every day, the emperor's heart is not what he can guess, the cabinet will not be a monopoly, and it is in the best interest of the emperor to contain each other, and now you are doing this well, so that the emperor can appreciate you, reuse, you can't do without you, you are the right way."

"Teacher, students, there is another thing to ask for, when I came over today, I met a merchant who made silk, he wanted to set up an association like a grain merchant, and he meant that he wanted students to help him, and the students were uncertain, so I wanted to ask the teacher to see if this matter was feasible."

"The essence of these businessmen's pursuit of profit will never change, he wants to set up this association, but also wants to use your official status to pull a big banner for himself to make a tiger skin, if it is really helpful to your silver number, you can do those imperial history, if there is any impeachment of your fold, the old man gives you this silver number, but the emperor has high hopes for it, they can be impeached at will, since so many businessmen want to set up an association, the old man thought of an idea, I will go to ask the emperor later, no matter what business is in the capital, you can set up an association, but this association will be managed by you and Shuntianfu, what do you think”

"I'm afraid that the emperor won't agree to this, after all, our ya'men are only engaged in the exchange of silver, if we let us manage those merchants again, will the emperor think that our authority is too heavy?"

"It's also possible, but after this strike, the emperor should also realize that the control of the merchants is crucial, if your ya'men can manage this matter, it will also be a good thing for the imperial court and your ya'men', it seems that the old man still wants to fight for you to take over the power of this management."

"Then it's troublesome teacher, it's just that we manage this with Shuntianfu, who is the lord and who is the auxiliary, and we have to make sure that the teacher can convince the emperor to give us this power, and let Shuntianfu assist us."

"Old man, try to fight for you, the emperor's mind is not something we can figure out......" Before I finished speaking, I saw the little eunuch who sent me with a big man wearing a military attache uniform and a haggard face and a dusty face, and hurriedly came to the house, because there was no one at noon, Zhang Juzheng's 'door' curtain in the house was also raised, and the bookstore who went to cook did not come back

The eunuch first saluted at Zhang Juzheng's 'door', and then said: "Master Zhang has an urgent military situation report, and the little one has no time to ask for instructions, so this military master is here."

Although Zhang Juzheng was annoyed that their arrival had disrupted our conversation, when he heard that the little eunuch said that there was an urgent military situation, he suppressed his anger and asked, "What is the urgent military situation, hurry up and report it?"

The big man knelt down on the ground on one leg and gave the heaviest military salute and said: "Lord Qiqi, I am the 'attendant' guard under the command of Lord Wang, the governor of Xuanda, and Lord Wang has appointed me to deliver emergency military information."

"What emergency military situation, why don't you send it to the Ministry of War first, how can you send it directly to the cabinet if you have the Ministry of War, is this what Lord Wang means, or what you mean" Zhang Juzheng was not in a hurry, and what urgent military situation was not as important as it was for a minister like him, even if it was on fire, it was necessary to take it slowly

"Lord Qiyu is Lord Wang, let me come directly to the cabinet, Lord Wang said that the military situation is urgent, can not be delayed, if it is sent to the Ministry of War, I don't know how long it will take to reach the cabinet, this is Lord Wang's letter" The military man said, took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Juzheng took the letter, opened it a few times, looked at it a few times, and said in a solemn tone: "This father-in-law, you take this general to Donghua 'Gate' to rest first, I see that he is also very tired, it seems that he is still here to rest on the way, you can 'get' some food for this general, and the official will go to see the emperor immediately."

Sent away, the eunuch and the military man Zhang Juzheng said to me: "Yun Jie, it seems that you can't do this meal, I have to go to see the emperor now, this is an urgent military situation, you can't delay you to get busy, do what you have to do, the old man will give you something, now you are in a hurry, put the silver in the silver number, maybe it won't be long before the court will use the silver."

I see Zhang Juzheng said this, knowing is a very important thing, or at this time to see the emperor, the emperor but when eating, the emperor does not see foreign ministers, now Zhang Juzheng goes, if it is not the most urgent military situation, I am afraid it will attract the emperor's anger, Zhang Juzheng of course knows this, but the importance of this letter' Zhang Juzheng feels that it is worth taking a risk after weighing

I said goodbye, Zhang Juzheng came out of the cabinet, came to Donghua's 'gate', got on a sedan chair, and walked to Xiao Cai's house

Zhang Juzheng also came out of the cabinet with the letter, and went to the Qianqing Palace, just happened to meet the secretary who came back from giving him food, and the secretary said: "Lord Zhang, the dinner is coming, are you going out?"

"Now the old man doesn't have the heart to eat, you hurry back and inform Master Li, Master Gao went to the Qianqing Palace, and said that there was an emergency, the old man went to wait first" After speaking, Zhang Juzheng didn't take care of the book office anymore, and directly pulled out the 'legs' and opened the way, and the book office Zhang Er monk 'touched' his mind, this Lord Zhang is a very calm person, why is he so uncalm today, it is not his style, but since the people have ordered, they have to go back to the dining hall with the food box to inform Gao Gong and Li 'Chun' Fang to go to the Qianqing Palace to see the emperor

When I came to the Qianqing Palace, this time I didn't wait for the eunuchs standing at the 'gate' to go in and inform that Zhang Juzheng had entered the courtyard and walked towards the 'gate' of the main hall

When he arrived at the 'gate' of the main hall, Zhang Juzheng didn't break through again this time, and said to the eunuch at the 'gate': "Go quickly, tell Your Majesty, the old minister, there is an urgent military situation."

The eunuch saw that Zhang Juzheng, who was usually calm, was so anxious this time, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly entered the main hall, and Ming Muzong was eating in the main hall, and the eunuch came in and reported that Zhang Juzheng was coming, and it was an urgent military situation, Ming Muzong put down his chopsticks and asked the little eunuch to withdraw the meal, and summoned Zhang Juzheng to meet him

Zhang Juzheng came to the dragon case and knelt down and played: "The emperor's old ministers have an urgent military situation from the governor of Xuanda, and the emperor has disturbed the emperor's meal, and I ask the emperor for forgiveness."

"Lord Zhang, please sit down and tell me if there is any urgent military information from Lord Wang."

The little eunuch brought a chair to Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Juzheng handed the letter in his hand to the little eunuch, and the little eunuch gave it to Ming Muzong behind the dragon case, Ming Muzong opened the letter and said after reading it: "Lord Zhang, this matter is very important, I think it is important to summon Lord Gao and Master Li to come over and discuss together."

"When the emperor came just now, he had already sent someone to invite Lord Gao and Master Li to come over to discuss this matter."

"Lord Zhang, you have also read the letter, and now Lord Gao and Master Li have not yet come, you can tell me your opinion on this matter first," Ming Muzong wanted to find out Zhang Juzheng's thoughts first

"The emperor in Weichen's opinion, this is a good thing, but we have to discuss a way to deal with it, this time to send Hannaji to Ming, the 'Meng' ancient army has been outside the Chen Bing Pass, and may enter the pass at any time, I think the emperor should first give an order to Lord Wang, let them be careful and vigilant, and also pass on the edict to other border towns to improve the defense level to prevent the 'Mongolian' ancient army from sneaking into the pass from other places."

"I don't know who this Hannaji is, I don't know why his enlightenment will make the 'Meng' Gu send hundreds of thousands of troops to attack, I don't know if Lord Zhang knows what kind of background this person is."

"The emperor put Hannaji is the grandson of Altan Khan, his father Tiebei Taiji is the third son of Altan Khan, he lost his father and grandmother at the age of four since he was a child, and his grandmother 'milk' 'milk' was raised by Hatun at a moment, and he knew these things, and why he descended to Ming, I will not know until the detailed letter of Lord Wang comes."
