Chapter 300: Persuasion

In fact, if someone else wanted to participate in this matter, Zhu Yijun wouldn't even answer, but these two people Zhu Yijun still had to consider their feelings, and he couldn't dampen the patriotism of the two people.

After all, both of them came to be loyal to themselves and Daming, and they did not hesitate to do so, which is very difficult.

"I have a copy here, two Aiqing take a look!" Zhu Yijun thought for a while, stretched out his hand and handed Li Maocai's recital to Zhang Whale beside him, and then spoke.

Both of them were stunned, watching the twists and turns? However, they also knew that this recital was related to what the two of them had mentioned before, so they didn't dare to underestimate it, and hurriedly and respectfully accepted the recital handed over by Zhang Whale.

Wang Yongji opened the fold and saw the words "please strike the business tax", Wang Yongji's heart jumped.

Looking down, the more you look at the face of King Wow, the more ugly it becomes, this twist is simply a heart-wrenching twist, and all the above words are distorted facts. directly positioned the emperor as the emperor who levied and extorted violently, and at the same time positioned the commercial tax as a bad government.

Pouring dirty water on the emperor like this, the intentions are really sinister, and even the previous things about the official gentry paying for food are all taken out. This is obviously provoking the emperor's anger!

Thinking of this, Wang Yongji glanced up at Zhu Yijun, and was relieved to find that Zhu Yijun's face had not changed much.

turned around and handed the fold to Li Biao, and Wang Yongji waited for Li Biao to finish reading the fold.

After Li Biao took the fold, he quickly read it, and was immediately furious: "Your Majesty, this person slandered the king and bewitched the people, and asked Your Majesty to allow Jinyiwei to arrest this person and directly put him into Zhao Prison for interrogation." ”

Glancing at Li Biao, Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "Isn't that just the right one?" ”

"If this incident happens at this time, Li Maocai here will inevitably become famous all over the world, and his ideas will definitely be spread, and I am afraid that countless people will follow suit at that time."

"Once it causes chaos, will this business tax be collected?"

"They want to mess up the business tax, but I don't want to!"

Zhu Yijun looked at Li Biao and said with a smile: "So I am ready to keep this recital in the middle, as for this Li Maocai, I am ready to promote and reuse, although I am not a prosperous monarch, but I can still listen to the advice of the courtiers." ”

Zhu Yijun glanced at Zhang Whale and said slowly: "I remember that there seems to be a vacancy in Ningxiawei, isn't it?" ”

Zhang Jing hurriedly bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, there is indeed a vacancy on Ningxiawei's side, so the old slave will go to the cabinet and the ministry to transfer Master Li to Ningxia." ”

In fact, whether it is Zhu Yijun or Zhang Whale, they don't know if Ningxia Wei is really short of people.

But the emperor said that there was a shortage, then there must be a shortage, there were more people in Ningxiawei who wanted to transfer back, there was a bitter cold place than the northwest, drinking the northwest wind and eating sand every day, and no one wanted to be an official there.

Zhu Yijun nodded and said with a smile: "A talent like Li Aiqing should be so reused." ”

"Zhang Whale, you go and keep an eye on the point, try to arrange for someone from Dongchang to accompany Li Aiqing to Ningxia Wei to take office, don't let him get sick on the road, if he can't take office because of illness, it will be a loss for Daming."

The meaning of Zhu Yijun's words is obvious, that is, you have to go, and if you don't go, you have to go, and there is no discussion at all.

Wang Yongji and Li Biao had no reaction to Zhu Yijun's courtiers like this, especially Li Biao, he felt that the emperor's punishment was too light, and this kind of person should be thrown into Jinyiwei's Zhao Prison, let him try Jinyiwei's criminal law.

"I've been thinking about it for the past few days, is there only one Li Maocai in this world?"

Zhu Yijun looked at the two of them, sighed and said, "I'm afraid it's not true, I'm afraid there are a lot of people who oppose the business tax." This policy is like water control, it is better to block than to dredge. ”

"Since they're against it, I'll see how they oppose it."

Zhu Yijun looked at the two of them and said in a deep voice: "So the matter of the two Aiqing going to Jiangnan is not suitable for the time being, I don't think the time is very good, let's take a look after a while!" ”

Although what Zhu Yijun said was quite vague, it can be seen from what Zhu Yijun did before that it is obvious that Zhu Yijun is definitely not so simple to let go easily, this is obviously to do something.

What to see how they object, to put it bluntly, is to see who will jump out, and then whoever jumps out will press back.

This press back, it is definitely not the end of the suppression, the two of them don't know much about the young son of heaven in their own family, and they are not too much different, with the personality of the young son of heaven in their own family, it is estimated that this time the butcher's knife is held high.

Wang Yongji was a little worried, if he really started killing, would there be any big trouble?

"Your Majesty, do you think you shouldn't be so intense?" Wang Yongji said with some hesitation, he also knew that he was afraid that he would make the emperor unhappy if he said this, but Wang Yongji felt that he still had to say it.

On the other hand, Li Biao was full of excitement, and he didn't care about the emperor's decision to let go of Li Maocai just now.

These people were born in the inner factory, and when Zhu Yijun was cultivating, he was basically based on Legalism, supplemented by various loyal and patriotic brainwashing. All of them are the Lords who kill people without mercy, and they advocate order and law.

Except for the emperor, they don't care about anyone, they are simply a group of unwanted masters, as for any chaos, they don't care even more, chaos is good, chaos is cured.

In the Legalist dictionary, chaos can be cured, and there are no exceptions at all.

"Lord Wang's words, forgive the officials for not agreeing!" Zhu Yijun hadn't spoken yet, Li Biao had already spoken: "These people are like abscesses growing on Da Ming's body." ”

"Only by cutting them off can Da Ming be healthy and strong."

"You can't stop going under the knife because of the pain of cutting off the abscesses, and let these abscesses grow, and in the end you can only be terminally ill." After saying this, Li Biao bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that he should cut off these tumors of the Ming Dynasty with the determination to scrape the bones and cure the poisonous wrists of the strong man." ”

"If anyone dares to come out and make trouble, the minister is willing to lead the Jinyi Guard to calm the chaos for His Majesty."

"If someone dares to rebel, the minister is willing to personally lead the Jinyi guard as the vanguard of the army, even if he dies on the battlefield, the minister will not regret it. Please Your Majesty do not tolerate adultery, please detain Your Majesty! ”

After saying this, Li Biao knelt on the ground with a plop and pestled the ground with his head.

Zhu Yijun looked at Li Biao, laughed and said: "Okay, very good, what Aiqing said is very heartfelt, yes, I will show the determination of a strong man to break his wrist and scrape his bones to cure poison." ”

"As for Aiqing's going to the battlefield, I will forget it."

"It's not that I doubt Aiqing's loyalty and ability, I can't let Aiqing and Jinyiwei do everything, right? There are more than 300,000 people in the Beijing camp and the pro-army, and Aiqing also wants to give them the opportunity to establish meritorious deeds. ”

"Otherwise, those generals will find trouble with Aiqing, and I won't stop them."

Hearing Zhu Yijun say this, Li Biao also showed a smile on his face: "It's the minister who is abrupt!" ”

Zhu Yijun nodded, what he said just now was a joke, but it was not a joke, on the one hand, tell Li Biao, I am very satisfied with your attitude, but don't let Jinyiwei stretch his hand too long.

"Wang Aiqing, do you still have any objections?" Zhu Yijun looked at Wang Yongji and asked slowly.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister has no objection, these people have no king and no country, they should indeed be severely punished, the minister just hopes not to cause too much turmoil." Wang Yongji said in a deep voice: "The imperial court soldiers are strong and strong, Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and the generals are even better at fighting." ”

"But once there is turmoil, it is the ordinary people who suffer, how can the people be innocent?"

"The people are His Majesty's people, they have a king and a country in their hearts, and I hope Your Majesty will investigate it carefully!"

Looking at Wang Yongji, Zhu Yijun didn't speak for a long time, in fact, for so long, what did he say about what Wang Yongji did, which made Zhu Yijun have an illusion that Wang Yongji was a courtier who could listen to his own words and do things.

Now Wang Yongji's performance reminds Zhu Yijun of why he used Wang Yongji in the first place.

Zhu Yijun remembers very well that Wang Yongji is a reluctant minister, and he also impeached Zhang Juzheng at the beginning, thinking that Zhang Juzheng monopolized power and lost his duty as a courtier, and at the same time he was also upright and principled.

Now it seems that Wang Yongji is still the same Wang Yongji, which can't help but make Zhu Yijun feel a little emotional.

Zhu Yijun still remembers the sentence in the Wang Yongji fold, that is, "In the eyes of the ministers, there is nothing to do in the world, no one is not selfish, and His Majesty is the only one", this sentence is still very touching Zhu Yijun is also deeply touched.

"Wang Aiqing, I remember that you are from Jinjiang, Quanzhou Prefecture, Fujian?" Zhu Yijun looked at Wang Yongji and asked.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister is indeed a person from Jinjiang, Quanzhou Prefecture, Fujian." Wang Yongji hurriedly replied.

"Quanzhou, the sea trade is prosperous, what kind of business can Aiqing's family do?" Zhu Yijun looked at Wang Yongji and continued to ask.

Hearing Zhu Yijun's question, Wang Yongji's heart sank, could it be that what he just said angered the emperor? Let him think he is speaking for the maritime merchants?

The emperor has no good impression of maritime merchants, which Wang Yongji knows very well.

"Your Majesty, Minister!" Wang Yongjigang wanted to say something, but was directly interrupted by Zhu Yijun waving his hand.

Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "As the so-called relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and the water to eat the water, there is nothing wrong with relying on the sea to eat the sea, and there is nothing wrong with Aiqing's family doing business, after all, the money I gave to Aiqing is not enough to support Aiqing's family." ”

"I think that a gentleman loves money in a proper way, and paying taxes is even more appropriate."

"I understand what Aiqing means, Aiqing can rest assured, I won't make a big deal of it, just punish the evil." Zhu Yijun patted Wang Yongji's shoulder and said with a smile: "So Aiqing can let it go." ”

"Just like Aiqing, I also know that the officials of the DPRK and China have business in eight or nine out of ten."

"I can understand all this, but what I don't understand is that these people actually want not to pay taxes, as an official of the Ming Dynasty, they don't have any consciousness at all, how can I expect them to be diligent and love the people?"

"Aiqing also has to understand my painstaking efforts."

Zhu Yijun's words are very clear, I want to do it to some people, most of these people are estimated to be officials, but I will not do it to everyone, and I will not pursue the business of officials.

Wang Yongji can be regarded as having received a guarantee from Zhu Yijun, as for the actual situation, it will only be said at that time.

"Your Majesty is painstaking, and the minister knows it." Wang Yongji hurriedly bowed and said.

Zhu Yijun nodded, and then said with a smile: "Since this is the case, the two Aiqing will go back first!" Prepare first, don't worry, soon there will be a place for the two Aiqing. ”

After the two left, Zhu Yijun said to Zhang Whale: "Is Xu De here?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Gonggong Xu is already waiting outside!" Zhang Whale hurriedly spoke.

Zhu Yijun nodded: "Let him come in!" ”

It didn't take long for Xu De to walk in from the outside, and after seeing Zhu Yijun, Xu De directly lay on the ground and kowtowed, and then said: "Slave Xu De, participate in the emperor!" ”

Waving his hand, Zhu Yijun said casually: "Okay, get up!" ”

When Xu De stood up, Zhu Yijun said slowly: "The imperial court is ready to levy commercial taxes, and the importance of commercial taxes to the Ming Dynasty and to me is self-evident. The weight of commercial taxes is in Jiangnan. ”

"I'm going to let you go to Jiangnan and keep an eye on them."

"Mobilize the manpower of the inner factory, keep an eye on it, remember this, just keep an eye on it, no matter what someone wants to do, don't make a move, even if someone wants to rebel, you can keep an eye on who instigated it."

"Understood?"

Xu De hurriedly bowed down and said, "Don't worry, the emperor understands!" ”

Zhu Yijun nodded: "Li Shenxing is in Nanjing now, you can go to him, and by the way, help him handle Li Dan's affairs, and he should be able to help you a little." ”

"Travel light, don't let people know you've gone to Jiangnan, understand?"

"Back to the emperor, the slave understands!" Xu De hurriedly nodded in agreement.

When Xu De also left, Zhu Yijun breathed a sigh of relief, walked down from Longshu Case Mountain, and went straight to the outside of the main hall. In June, although the current capital has not begun to flow fire, it is already very hot.

Zhu Yijun looked at the sky in the distance, and the expression on his face was very indifferent.

Nanjing, Yamen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Li Shenxing is in a very bad mood these days, but there is nothing wrong with Li Dan's side, as long as the emperor's decree in the capital arrives, he will be able to complete this matter.

Li Shenxing was in a bad mood, in fact, because of the business tax.

Although Li Shenxing has not seriously investigated, Li Shenxing, as the head of the Internal Affairs Office, is not weak in Jiangnan, and he can feel that the wind direction in Jiangnan is not right.

Obviously, this time the business tax, many people feel uncomfortable, and many people want to do something.

Previously, the new goods of the Internal Affairs Office were given to the He family, and the He family purchased the goods of the sea trade at a high price, coupled with the suppression of the silver price by the imperial court, many people were already dissatisfied, but this matter could not be brought to the fore.

Now the imperial court collects commercial taxes, so that many people's dissatisfaction has found an outlet.

Although the imperial court let him keep an eye on the matter of commercial taxes, Li Shenxing felt that the strength of the Internal Affairs Office was afraid that he would not be able to withstand it! If you are not careful, it will be a big mess, and you will be responsible for your own death!

The most important point is that I don't want to die because of this!
