People are in human affection, and people take tea to be cold.

This is the most vivid portrayal of people in officialdom and even among ordinary people.

Li was going back to his hometown, but in fact, he was not very old, far from the age of retirement, but he couldn't go anymore.

The rumors in the capital attacked him, and Ye Xun's merciless reply was like a heavy hammer, so that he no longer had the courage to stay in the capital.

Especially when Li Zhiwen packed up and went out of the city, none of his former colleagues came to see him off, which couldn't help but make him even more disheartened.

Li didn't have a lot of luggage, so he took a few family members to escort him, a group of more than ten people and two carriages, and left the capital in a panic.

As soon as the team arrived at the ten-mile long pavilion, the frame of Li Beiwen's car was stopped.

"My lord, Gonggong Ye is waiting in front to see him off"

The voice of the subordinate woke up Li Zhiwen, who was leaning in the carriage with his eyes closed.

He was slightly stunned, then smiled wryly, then pushed the car door and jumped out of the carriage.

Li is not stupid, in this incident he encountered, there was a smell of conspiracy from beginning to end, although he was not sure that Ye Xun did it, but to say that Ye Xun didn't know, I'm afraid it was impossible.

There were a few small dishes on the stone table in the pavilion, a pot of old wine, Ye Xun stood aside with his hands in his hands, his face was not surprised or happy, there was no hypocritical pity, and there was no schadenfreude excitement.

"Huh! I didn't expect that the last person to see me off would be Grandpa Ye, the old man finally left, Grandpa Ye was satisfied this time, right? ”

Li Zhiwen said to himself, his tone was not without resentment, and after entering the gazebo, he sat down directly, and without the help of others, he filled up a glass of wine and drank a glass of wine.

Ye Xun looked at Li Yi quietly, and only said after a while, "Do you know where you are wrong?" ”

"What's wrong with the old man? Is there anything wrong with returning power to the center? ”

Ye Xun sighed slightly, sat down opposite Li Zhiwen, poured a glass of wine and drank a glass before saying: "It is undeniable that Lord Li is an honest official and has a strong ability to do things. ”

Li Zhiwen was slightly stunned, he really hadn't thought about this question, but he quickly said: "The old man is doing right, walking properly, don't care what others say?" ”

Ye Xun could feel that Li Zhiwen's heart was not small, and it was no wonder who could be happy to be detained with such a basin?

"Yes! You Master Li can behave rightly and clean yourself, but what about others? Master Li is erudite and talented, so you should know how many disasters in history have been caused by party disputes! ”

"Ye Mou came to see you off today, not to see your jokes, nor to explain anything to you, but I just hope that after you figure it out, you can stand up again, and say goodbye!"

After Ye Xun finished speaking, he got up and walked straight out of the pavilion, stepped on the war horse, and whipped away.

Li Zhiwen looked at Ye Xun's back blankly, and he didn't move a single inch for a long time.

He could feel that Ye Xun still wanted to use him, but he just needed him to reflect on himself, but was he really wrong?

Some things are like this, the more I don't understand it, the more I have to think about it, and along the way, Comrade Lao Li is estimated to have a bad night's sleep.

Before Li Beiwen could return to his hometown, a holy decree caught up with him, appointing him as the prefect of Zhending, and taking office immediately.

Zhending was not lightly harmed by Xu Hongru before, and he also needs a capable person to govern.

In this way, Li Shangshu, who everyone thought was going to retire gloomily, went directly to Zhending and restarted his official journey.

Soon, a holy decree came out of the palace, Yang Sichang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, a scholar of the East Pavilion University, and Yuan Keli, the former governor of Denglai, who was replaced by Cheng Yu, was appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Fang Zhenru, the imperial history of the Imperial Academy, took over the vacancy left by Cheng Yu and served as the imperial history of the left capital.

In this way, the cabinet headed by Yang Sichang was once again successfully formed, and he still presided over the daily affairs of the cabinet in the form of taking turns to govern and write.

Needless to say, Yang Sichang said that Yuan Keli and Fang Zhenru were both loyal and impure officials in the township party after secret investigation, and they did not reject Ye Xun's style, so they were finally selected by Ye Xun.

As for Wang Yin and Zhao Yingzhi, they stayed in the cabinet for the time being because there was nothing wrong with them.

The first topic of the new cabinet is the ban on opening the sea that Ye Xun proposed before.

Yang Sichang was very cautious, and did not make a decision directly in the cabinet, but first let the courtiers discuss it, and finally the cabinet made the results.

Ye Xun agrees with Yang Sichang's approach, after all, this is not a trivial matter, and what he wants is not only to open the sea in Liaodong, but to open all the ports of Daming, so that Daming can become rich as soon as possible.

Now the officials in the court have a very keen sense of smell, and they all know very well that Ye Xun is the real controller of the government, and opening the sea has always been advocated by Ye Xun, if anyone jumps out at this time, I am afraid Shao Fuzhong is a role model.

So when Yang Sichang proposed to discuss this matter, there was surprisingly no objection, and even the imperial historians who arrested and sprayed whoever sprayed them honestly kept their mouths shut.

This is easy to say, but if you really want to implement it, it cannot be done in a day or two.

Choosing a location, selecting officials, building a shipyard, etc., none of that happened overnight.

What made the officials happiest was that the imperial court directly handed over the port to the Ministry of Household Management, and did not add additional internal supervision.

You must know that in the more than 200 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, from the army to the locality, there are still few eunuchs who do not follow the cooperation, but from this point, it once again let the Manchu Dynasty civil and military see Ye Xun's mind and bearing.

In fact, Ye Xun didn't trust the eunuchs, these creatures who lacked parts on their bodies had an almost crazy enthusiasm for silver, and the tax supervisors of the mines and the tax supervisors of the farms had already made the people everywhere complain.

The current Ming court can be said to be very magical, the most powerful is the eunuch, but except for Ye Xun, no eunuch can be contaminated with the slightest power in the court.

This situation can be said to be the most popular among the officials, and after the silver coin from Liaodong was sent to the household department, after discussion by the cabinet, the officials' salaries were raised by three levels.

The ordinary officials of the Ming Dynasty were not high, and many Beijing officials even had to borrow money to get by, so Ye Xun's move was like giving the officials a shot in the arm, which immediately aroused everyone's enthusiasm and greatly improved the efficiency of the imperial court.

Of course, Ye Xun doesn't need to be thanked, so the cabinet in this sector can be said to be well received by officials, and even with Yang Sichang, they handle government affairs much more smoothly.

In the midst of the overwhelming praise, civil and military officials and envoys of various states in Beijing received an invitation from the Governor's Office of the Five Armed Forces, which invited those who received the invitation to participate in the military parade, and the time was set for the 10th day of March.

Why is it on this day?

Soon there was gossip that Liaodong had been basically pacified, and Ye Gonggong wanted to take this day as a commemorative day, and he would have a corresponding celebration every year in the future
