Chapter 173: The gambling emperor is scheming
The palm print eunuch and the pen eunuch both laughed secretly.
They were also impressed in their hearts: this little thing is indeed too capable, that is, we can occupy one or two shops at most on that street, and he can do it and directly requisition a street.
How do they know what's going on, besides, they're addicted to playing the Monopoly game, and the Alonbas in it is specially to buy a street, and then whoever comes over has to pay the money, and directly bankrupt the opponent.
It was a dream in his heart to buy a street, but this time he didn't even want to give up the money, so he requisitioned it directly.
Zhang Whale trembled and bowed down and said: "Long live Lord, that kid said, it is really needed for official business, the sixth guard of Jinyi needs many shops to produce and reserve medicines, if not, it may not be available when it is needed in the future." ”
"Need for official business? If he needed a place, he could have applied for it, so why did he have to occupy that street? ”
Of course, the emperor is not so easy to fool, when he was the prince, he knew what that street meant, the most luxurious and expensive shops were there, and many things in the former palace were bought there, and it was clearly red-eyed and hot-hearted, and then forcibly occupied it by his grace.
"That kid said, that street is the most suitable." Zhang Whale said stiffly.
"Is my palace more appropriate than that street? What does he want to do next, will he requisition another Fang District, and then requisition half of Beijing City? "As soon as the emperor took the case, Long Yan was furious.
"Long live the anger, according to the slave, if that kid can really succeed in the future and complete the emperor's great cause, what is it to give him a street." The eunuch Bingbi smiled and stepped forward to persuade.
"That's right, if he really does the big thing I gave him, let alone a street, it can be given to him by Shiwangfu Street. But now that he has done nothing, he is already lawless, and he can pay it off like this. The emperor's anger decreased slightly.
"According to the news received by the minions, that kid is really a character, he is doing a good job, he is now training with that kind of bounty regulation, and the people recruited under his hands are all trained like hungry wolves, that kind of spirit is really surprising." Eunuch Bingbi smiled.
"Huh? And here's it, let's hear about it. "The emperor is interested.
The eunuch Bingbi said all the information reported by the people below, and praised the training method, although the recruited recruits had not yet practiced the formation, but the momentum of a single person was already a few points stronger than that of the Tatars outside the Saiwai.
The palm print eunuch also smiled: "Indeed, if you really give that kid a few more years, you can train a hundred battle masters who are no less than those under Taizu." ”
"You think so highly of him? Isn't that a bit excessive? The emperor was surprised.
"It's still long live the wisdom of gold, in fact, the original minions were not optimistic about him." Palm print eunuch said.
The eunuch Bingbi said with a smile: "Your Majesty, he is very good now, and the slave was worried that he would know how to write articles, practice calligraphy and painting after he took office, so he really couldn't do anything, and now it seems that this little guy really has the atmosphere of doing great things." ”
Hearing these praises, the emperor was not only not angry, but also overjoyed, and praised in his heart: The national teacher is really a god and a man.
Don't talk about these people, he couldn't understand how he could do something that Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng thought no one could do, Qi Jiguang was a famous general, Tan Lun was a famous minister, what they couldn't do, who else could do it? A weak scholar is even better than the best combination of Qi Jiguang and Tan Lun?
He had these questions in his heart for a long time, if it weren't for the fact that the national teacher had never missed a single time in the previous dynasty, he would have been right, and he wouldn't have bet on this great cause like a treasure, there was really no way.
He also thought about messing up everything, it would only be a loss of hundreds of thousands of taels of internal money, and his inner palace would be frugal, and if it could be done, all the chess games in the whole country would be enlivened.
If the country is compared to a person, silver is blood, and the body of a person who is dry or not vigorous will naturally not be able to get better, and the biggest difficulty since his accession to the throne is the lack of silver, many things are not difficult to do, but without silver, they cannot do it.
If the sea ban is opened, the coastal ports can be controlled in the hands of the imperial court, and the amount of silver from overseas flows into the treasury, and he will become the master of Zhongxing.
Emperor Longqing is peaceful and humble, humble and modest, but he also has the dream of being the master of Zhongxing in his heart, at least he wants to leave his son a good river and mountain, instead of a difficult pattern everywhere.
"Have you audited his recent accounts, how much money is this bastard greedy for?" The emperor was suddenly a little scared, this kid is so greedy, won't all the funds be put into his own pocket?
"Long live rest assured, this kid knows how to measure, Long Live didn't greed for a penny of silver he gave him, and he even pasted tens of thousands of taels upside down, maybe he was poor and poor, so he had to do business." Eunuch Bingbi smiled.
"He poured his own silver?" The emperor couldn't believe it.
"It's true that the upside-down silver is not accounted for, but everyone knows it."
"Oh."
The emperor somewhat understood, is this kid useless, and embarrassed to openly reach out to ask for money, so occupying a street to do business, this is too much, but it is also worthy of forgiveness.
As for saying that it is necessary to requisition a street for official business, the emperor can only say that he is farting, and he is a fart, and he is a bullshit.
The eunuchs of the palm print and the eunuchs of Bingbi actually have nothing to do with the situation, they speak for the sake of the situation, one is to relax the emperor's heart, and the other is to place heavy hopes on the situation, hoping that he can create a miracle in the future and complete the emperor's grand cause of opening the sea ban.
If this is not the case, besides, if the street is requisitioned, not to mention that others are not convinced, they will have to fight head-to-head, and they also want to get a few shops on that street to make money, and no one has too much silver. Now that they have taken the lead, they don't think about it.
"Okay, give a decree to the Ministry of War, requisition that street in the name of the Ministry of War, and then allocate it to the Sixth Guard." The emperor spoke.
As soon as the eunuch of Bingbi spoke, a eunuch next to him knelt in front of the imperial case to draft his will.
The eunuch is just an official name, not that all the documents are written by him, and many of his subordinates use them. The cabinet outside and the celebrant inside are the two departments together, which is the complete power.
In the Tang Dynasty, Lu Zhen was known as the inner minister, but in fact, the palm print eunuch and the Bingbi eunuch were the real internal ministers, and Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng were the external ministers.
The emperor said to Zhang Whale again: "I will take care of this matter for him, talk to that bastard, stop and stop, he can really be done in the future, and I will reward him with Shiwangfu Street." ”
"This, isn't it?" The palm print eunuchs were frightened.
There are ten palaces in the streets of the Ten Princes' Mansions, and no one dares to fight the idea there, that is, the prince, it is a great grace to reward a palace, and it is only a courtier, how can you reward ten palaces?
"I'm afraid that he doesn't have the ability to get it, what about the ten palaces, can it alleviate the emptiness of the treasury? Can you solve any problems? If he really does something great, I will never break my word, and write him a will as evidence. ”
The palm print eunuch and the pen eunuch were a little frightened, how is this like gambling, and writing notes.
Zhang Whale was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak, in fact, there was no place for him to speak here, only the eunuchs with palm prints and the eunuchs with the pen could speak freely in front of the emperor.
Zhang Juzheng was also shocked when he learned about this, and he didn't believe it at first, thinking that someone was doing something wrong in the name of the situation, but later he realized that he really did it.
"What do you kid want to do?" It was the first time for Zhang Juzheng to slap the table, and he was so angry. How did a good genius and a young master of science become a tyrant in Beijing.
"My lord, I just look good on that street." Besides, he said with an innocent face and a cute face.
Zhang Ju smiled angrily: "Do you think there are still a few good places in Beijing, do you want to occupy them?" ”
"No, that street is enough." Besides, he doesn't refute it, and he doesn't defend himself, it's just selling cuteness.
"Hehehe." Zhang Juzheng's beard fluttered, but he was still laughing, he was really amused.
"My lord, I have found out, the owners of those shops are also scheming, and they are all the widows of the previous dynasty, what kind of majesty are I playing, I am an upstart in the dynasty, if I don't do this, isn't it embarrassing for the emperor?" Besides, there are rebukes.
Zhang Juzheng was already so angry that he couldn't speak, what is the legacy of the previous dynasty, is it a powerful figure of the previous dynasty, when did you change the dynasty?
The old and the young are the contemptuous names for the magnates of the previous dynasties after the change of dynasty, and this is a deliberate burial of these people.
"You just want to do it, and then you want the emperor to drive you home?" What a character Zhang Juzheng is, he immediately saw the intention of the situation.
"Your Excellency is wise." Besides, hurry up and pat yourself on the back.
"I'm a wise fart, your little caution The emperor won't know, and tell you that the emperor will not let you leave Beijing City even if he punishes you." Zhang Juzheng shook his head, he was not angry. Besides, this kind of person can't be angry, sometimes like a three-year-old child, he can't beat or scold. He is sympathetic to Chen Musa now, every day, how can he stand this kind of disciple.
In fact, Chen Musa treats him like a son, basically doting, ignoring everything else, and letting him develop freely.
"Then at least I don't have to go to Fujian, and I don't have to be in charge of Jinyiwei." Besides, he laughed.
Besides, I know very well in my heart that it is not a good thing to be in charge of Jinyiwei and hold power, but on the contrary, it may be a great disaster. If he is just a white dress, the emperor will want his life at most, and he will not affect others.
Zhang Juzheng thought for a while, and said with a wry smile: "I can figure it out, the emperor will definitely be able to figure it out, you are in vain, you wait, the emperor will not punish you, and will admit your expropriation, if you want to pick a son, no way!" ”
Besides, he smiled: "I've thought about it too, so I'll at least get that street." ”
"You're doing foolish things with a shrewd heart, I hope you can always seize the opportunity, and I can't say anything about you." Zhang Juzheng smiled helplessly.
