Chapter 216: Qi Jiguang is in action

Glancing at Wang Xijue, Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "Then which vassal king are you going to choose?" ”

After so many years, there are many vassal kings in the Ming Dynasty, but there are only a few vassal kings in the first generation. The cutting of the feudal domain led to the Jing disaster, and there were some losses at that time, but there were still some deep-rooted.

"The minister wants to choose King Jin." Wang Xijue bowed.

King Jin?

Zhu Yijun listened to Wang Xijue's words, pondered for a moment, and had to say that Wang Xijue's choice was not bad.

The first generation of Jin King is Zhu Li, the third son of Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, and his mother is the Empress Ma (Queen Ma), who was born to Concubine Li Shu in the Chronicles of Nanjing Taichang Temple, one of the nine kings.

The king of Jin gave birth to seven sons, the eldest son Zhu Jixi: King of Jinding, the second son of Shu Zhu Jiye: King Gaoping Huaijian, the third son of Shu Zhu Jixi: Shu Ren (the first king of Zhaode, renamed the king of Pingyang, the king of Jin and the king of Jin, because of the alliance with the king of Han), the fourth son of Zhu Jixuan: King Hui of Qingcheng, the fifth son of Zhu Jihuan: King of Ninghua Yijian, the sixth son of Zhu Jihong: King of Yonghe Zhaoding, the seventh son of Zhu Jixi: King of Guangchang Mourning Ping.

In addition to his seven sons, the king of Jin also had two daughters, and the family was set up in Taiyuan, Shanxi.

After so many years, the title has been passed down from generation to generation, and it has long developed into a very amazing scale. In fact, Wang Xijue had some ideas for choosing King Jin, because the King of Jin was not treated by the emperor.

When Emperor Chengzu was martyred, the King of Jin at that time, that is, Zhu Jixi, the son of Zhu Li, did not help Chengzu Zhu Di.

The result can be imagined, he was tortured, and then he was robbed of the title of King of Jin by his brother, this person is Zhu Jixi. It's just that this Zhu Jixi is also a master who can't stand in line, Zhu Di's son won the heir, and he stood on Zhu Gaosui's side again.

When Renzong ascended the throne, Zhu Jixi was deprived of his title, and it is conceivable that if the royal family can treat the king of Jin, there will be ghosts.

Over the years, the King of Jin has been tempered, and with the bitter cold in the northwest, it is easier to start with them. I've been tempered all these years, and it's easy to clean up, and there won't be any mess.

Zhu Yijun nodded, and then said, "Then what are you going to do?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, please move the King of Jin to the capital." Wang Xijue bowed.

Zhu Yijun looked at Wang Xijue and said angrily: "Then do you know how many people are in the line of King Jin?" Do you know how many vassal kings there are in the world? All moved to the capital? Where to stay? Is it building a royal palace for them? ”

"Do you give the money or do you give the money? Where does the silver come from? ”

Open your mouth to migrate, say it lightly, how can it be so easy.

"As long as the emperor opens a ban for the Jin Palace, the minister thinks that the Jin Palaces are still willing to build the palace by themselves." Wang Xijue didn't care about Zhu Yijun's words, and said directly: "The northwest is suffering, how can the capital be so prosperous and rich. ”

"As for the land for building the palace, the minister thinks it is very suitable in the western suburbs."

"The land industry of the Jin Prince's Mansion in Taiyuan can be replaced." Wang Xijue said directly: "To exchange the fields of Shanxi for the fields of the capital, the ministers should be willing to come to the Jin Palace." ”

Zhu Yijun looked at Wang Xijue, and said that the civil officials were ruthless, and now it seems that this is true, Wang Xijue looks very upright, and the result is really ruthless.

Is there a place in the western suburbs?

Of course, the land there is still very good, even if Zhu Yijun does not enclose the land, the rich families in the capital have also begun to enclose the land. Wu Qingbo and Li Wei built a Tsinghua Garden in the western suburbs, and he can do real estate by himself.

There is no way in other places, and the capital should be fine, such as the western suburbs.

Circle the land in the western suburbs, and then build a large new area, and sell it to the relocated prince when the time comes, so that they can replace it with their own industry, which should be able to make a lot of money, but isn't this a bit of a small family?

But think about those vassal kings who are rich one by one, it's just right to get some back.

In fact, the feudal king was very strictly restricted, but the feudal king's estate was definitely not small, because there were people who worked for the feudal king. For example, the officials and eunuchs of the royal palace were sent by the imperial court to take care of the property of the vassal king.

Of course, surveillance is also their business, but it does not delay them from doing business and making a fortune.

The property of the palace is not so much the industry of the prince alone, but the industry of this combination of interests. It is not uncommon for these people to make a fortune in the name of the palace, otherwise where did the notoriety of the palace come from?

You must know that the reputation of the feudal prince's mansion in the local area is very stinky, encroaching on the fields, forcibly buying and selling, and doing more than the gentry.

The vassal kings can't even go out of the city, where do they get the power to do these things? is not the subordinate officials of the palace, Zhu Yijun will not simply think that moving a palace is simply moving a prince.

In fact, every royal palace is a huge combination of interests, which is only big and not small compared to the Kong family, but the influence is different.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yijun naturally made up his mind, and said with a smile: "Since Aiqing is so confident, then Aiqing will go to Taiyuan, meet King Jin, and talk to him about this matter." ”

Anyway, the matter is handed over to Wang Xijue, and what the negotiation looks like depends on his ability.

Wang Xijue bowed and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, the minister will go to Taiyuan as soon as he prepares." "If this matter can't be done well, don't talk about opening the feudal ban yourself, Wang Xijue is confident that he can do a good job.

Looking at the back of Wang Xijue leaving, Zhu Yijun sighed.

In fact, it is not a good idea to move to the palace of the feudal lord, but there are many things that cannot be helped. The various feudal palaces were a combination of interests in various places, which made them penetrate deeply into the local area.

Unlike officials who leave when they arrive, the palace has been deeply cultivated for more than 100 years.

Even if it is grinding little by little, it should grind out a hole, not to mention that it is a palace.

Now the vassal palaces in various places are all about power, and once the ban is opened, then many things will come back. If the vassal kings can move, then with the resources of the vassal king's mansion, they will definitely become a local hegemon.

Even if there is no rebellion, there is a lot of trouble, and in comparison, it is more in line with the established interests to migrate.

The lesser of two evils, if you want to use some royal families, then you have to beat them, and then use them.

"I hope Wang Xijue is doing well!" Zhu Yijun sighed, turned around and walked back.

When Zhu Yijun was worried about the opening of the feudal ban, Xu De and Zhao Lian and Dong Chengwu were meeting a person in Fujian, and this person was Qi Jiguang, the Marquis of Dingbei of the Ming Dynasty. After leaving Beijing, Qi Jiguang marched all the way and arrived in Fujian in only nine days.

The speed is not unfast, and it also has something to do with the fact that they travel by land.

Although Qi Jiguang brought not all cavalry, the configuration of one horse per person still flashed the eyes of many people, especially Dong Chengwu.

Jingying is not short of horses now, especially after the battle of Warat, a lot of horses were captured in that battle, plus some horses that Qi Jiguang swept from Warat. These are all good horses from Wara, beautiful and smooth, and Dong Chengwu is hot-eyed.

Qi Jiguang is naturally a good person, but he will not use military horses to give favors.

"Governor Dong, don't worry, when I go back, I'll ask someone to get you a good horse, it's better than these, and let someone send it to you when the time comes." Qi Jiguang smiled heartily and said, "Lord Zhao, if you like it, I will give you a horse." ”

"Your Majesty, Shengming, after defeating Warat, we will not be short of horses."

Zhao Lian said with a smile: "Then the official is disrespectful!" ”

Both Dong Chengwu and Zhao Lian are sighing, this Qi Jiguang is really the same as the rumors, he is generous and can be a man. The key is to have the ability, and he is beautiful in Wara, no wonder the emperor values him.

After they sat down, Qi Jiguang said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, this time I came to Fujian by His Majesty's holy decree, and I originally wanted to give you a hand, but I didn't expect you to do a good job, this Fujian ground is very peaceful!" ”

Hearing this, Dong Chengwu and Zhao Lian didn't feel anything, but Xu De heard a little bit of meaning.

"Hou Ye is polite, the emperor knows that I am not capable enough, so he sent Hou Ye." Xu De smiled and said: "It's still the emperor Shengming, we really encountered a tricky thing, if it wasn't for the Hou Ye coming, we really don't know what to do." ”

The people sent by the emperor didn't do anything, you all did it, and then sent it back, is this appropriate?

Of course it's not suitable!

If you really want to do this, how can you look like the emperor is wise? Xu De has been a eunuch for so many years, and he understands these things thoroughly. It is true that our ability is insufficient, and it is wise for the emperor to send people.

Take out some things for Qi Jiguang to do, and cooperate to do it beautifully, this is the emperor's good job.

Only in this way can the credit in front of you be confirmed, and the emperor will be happy, you can't always show your shrewdness and ability, where do you put the emperor? None of the people here are stupid people, and they may not have reacted just now, but as soon as Xu De said this, both Zhao Lian and Dong Chengwu reacted.

These people found out the Fushou Paste case, and also found out the case of Zhen Jiatong, and strangled dozens of real widows, which is enough.

"Lord Zhao, let's talk about it!" Xu De saw the appearance of the two people and knew that they also understood, so he smiled and said, "You were worried two days ago, but now that Master Hou is here, you don't have to worry." ”

Zhao Lian comprehended and said with a smile: "That's true, then the official will talk about it, this is the case." Saying that, Zhao Lian said about picking up the boat at the beach, and finally said with a wry smile: "Dingbei Hou, we are not good at these, if we let the boat run, then we will be guilty." ”

"We all know your experience in Dingbei Hou, and obviously you are more experienced in dealing with them."

Qi Jiguang listened to Zhao Lian's words and said with a smile: "No problem, as long as they dare to come, they will definitely not be able to escape." ”

Listening to Qi Jiguang's words, several people breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, their pressure has not been small in the past few days. If the ship didn't come and the news leaked, that's fine, but once the ship came, they couldn't stop it, then it would be troublesome.

Everyone present knew the importance of the matter, and Qi Jiguang's reception dinner was also saved, and he was busy arranging manpower.

When it was time to pick up the boat, Qi Jiguang took it to the ambush as soon as it was dawn, and they were all spending the ambush on this day. In addition to catching ships, Qi Jiguang also wanted to train his subordinates.

As night fell, everything was calm by the sea, there was nothing but the night wind.

By the moonlight, the ships with the light of the fire slowly approached the shore, and a group of people appeared on the shore, they quietly waited for the arrival of the fleet. Not far away, Qi Jiguang and the others watched this scene quietly, lowered their breath and waited.

After the boat docked, several people jumped out of bed, led by a Hongyi man.

The leader on this side of the shore was a middle-aged man, dressed in purple, and behind him was a pile of goods and dozens of people. This man is none other than Min Da from the inner factory.

Seeing that the Hongyi people were coming, Min Da immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

But when he saw the few people following behind Hongyiren, the expression on his face became serious. Each of them had a musket and a scimitar at his waist, and there were quite a few people on the boat, who were also watching.

"You were sent by the Zhen family to pick up the goods?" On the Hongyi side, a thin man spoke.

Judging by his appearance and the accent he heard, this person should be a Ming man.

Min laughed and said, "Yes, we were sent by the master to pick up the goods, this is a token." As he spoke, Min Da took out the jade jue.

The Hongyi people don't suspect him, and it's not the first time they've done this kind of business, and they haven't had an accident for so long, so their vigilance is naturally not high. After verifying Yu Jue, Hongyi nodded.

The thin man smiled and said, "Good! He waved his hand to the people behind him.

The rest of the boats also sailed over, and began to set up the gangplank and move things down.

Min Da beckoned the people behind him to come over and opened the box, which was full of pieces of Fushou ointment. In addition to Fushou ointment, some boxes are filled with silver, Min Da's eyes narrowed, this time there are a lot of transactions!

The Hongyi people were also checking the things brought by Minda, and in fact, most of these things were prepared by the Zhen family.

There is a legal port on the Moon Harbor side, and these things are no problem trading there, but the ships of the Hongyi people can't enter the Moon Harbor, and they are all controlled by the Franc people over there, and the Manila galleons can sail in during the day.

The Hongyi people chose this trading method, in fact, to beware of the Furlong man.

If you meet Li Dan, you can still solve it with some silver, but the Spaniards can't, they will directly grab things and kill people, for the trade rights of the Ming Dynasty, the Dutch and the Spaniards have not fought once.

These Dutchmen who traded with the Zhen family were not from the East India Company, just some merchants, and the East India Company did not look down on such a small-scale trade, but these merchants could see it, but they didn't expect that Daming was already waiting for him here.
