Chapter 1527: Overseas Situation
Yes, hahaha......"
Gao Gong laughed heartily, and now he was more confident in taking control of the cabinet. Although Xu Jie got Zhang Juzheng into the cabinet, Luo Xin also entered the cabinet, Luo Xin's ability and prestige absolutely crushed Zhang Juzheng, so he got Luo Xin's support, and the competition with Xu Jie was already invincible.
The more the two of them talked, the more speculative they became, and finally after meeting on duty, they went to Taibai Building for dinner, and Gao Gong said goodbye and left. Luo Xin sent Gao Gong out of the door, and when he saw Zhang Juzheng coming out of Xu Jie's room, Gao Gong swept Zhang Juzheng lightly, and walked to his duty room, Zhang Juzheng saluted from afar.
Luo Xin also turned around and returned to his duty room, Zhang Juzheng soon walked in, sat opposite Luo Xin, picked up his teapot and poured a cup of tea, took a sip, and then said:
"No, why are you doing this? The cabinet needs to be peaceful. ”
Luo Xin raised his eyelids and glanced at him, and said lightly: "Why is the cabinet not peaceful?" Just because Gao Ge Lao was rewarded? ”
"Shousuke is not a ...... of Shangzhu State"
"Why isn't he in the Pillar Kingdom, don't you have a little number? When Your Majesty ascends the throne, shouldn't you reward meritorious officials? ”
"Alas......"
Zhang Juzheng sighed, and felt that what Luo Xin said was so reasonable, and he had nothing to say.
At this time, it is close to the end of the year, and the cabinet has begun to get busy, and when the year passes, the cabinet has to make various summaries and inventories. Since Gao Gong received the reward, he is no longer as aggressive as before, and Xu Jie has endured a lot, and for a while, the cabinet is much more peaceful.
The cabinet is so busy, so naturally Luo Xin and Zhang Juzheng will not let Luo Xin and Zhang Juzheng do nothing anymore, just sit there and watch others work, so they also began to give them some work within their ability.
Zhang Juzheng still serves as the left attendant of the household department, and he is familiar with the affairs of the household department, so the matter of checking the account books of the household department was handed over to Zhang Juzheng. Gao Gong reported back to Luo Xin, and handed over the official assessment files sent by the Ministry of Rites to Luo Xin, who was originally from Ma Fang's background and should be in charge of the Ministry of War, but now the money shortage has made Ma Fang anxious, so Gao Gong and Xu Jie, after research, let Ma Fang concentrate on the money shortage in the north. The affairs of the military department were handed over to Yan Na to be responsible for auditing the accounts. Gao Gong also proposed to let Zhang Juzheng concentrate on the matter of the money shortage in the south and hand over the affairs of the household department to others, but Xu Jie did not agree, and Gao Gong and Xu Jie also had their own stalls.
Of course, for Zhang Juzheng, the affairs of the household department are small things, and the big things are money shortages.
This has been a month, and there are still two months left before the three months given by Xu Jie. This is really a tight time and a heavy task. The most important thing is that neither Zhang Juzheng nor Ma Fang have come up with a good solution.
Luo Xin completely forgot about the money shortage this month, and was so busy that he hit the back of his head with his heel, and truly realized the hard work of the cabinet. Before he entered the cabinet, he really didn't know that the cabinet had so many things.
But it's not surprising when you think about it.
There are many things that you are not high enough to know at all. The cabinet is the highest organ of the Ming Dynasty, and there are too many things that only the cabinet knows, so people outside the cabinet naturally don't know the hard work of the cabinet.
And Luo Xin is different from Zhang Juzheng, those old cabinets, Xu Jie, Gao Gong, Yan Na and Ma Fang all have no ministry affairs and concentrate on handling cabinet affairs. However, Luo Xin also served as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhang Juzheng also served as the left attendant of the Ministry of Households.
It's even more of a burden!
Originally, the Ministry of Rites had much less to do than the Ministry of Households.
Wrong!
It should be said that it is much less. The household department is in charge of money and grain, not only to take stock of this year, but also to budget for the coming year, which is really a tiring department. The Ministry of Rites is different.
But this year is different, because next year will be the year of Dabi. This is a major national event. It's all watched. There can be no negligence. In the two capitals and thirteen provinces, the chief examiner, deputy examiner, invigilator, and admiral of each examination room, including the scribe who copied the papers, all had to be sent by the Ministry of Rites. There are also the conditions of each examination room, which need to be inspected by the Ministry of Rites and then closed. Although it will be until next fall. Autumn is naturally in autumn.
However, the territory of the Ming Dynasty is vast, and it is not a small place. So it's time to get busy.
In this way, Luo Xin and Zhang Juzheng have to be busy in the cabinet and deal with the affairs of the ministry, they are really busy with their heels hitting the back of their heads, often working overtime, and they don't have overtime pay, and they don't have time to go home when they are busy, so they eat and sleep in the big house.
finally went home, but received a message from Lu Cuiqiao, which shocked Luo Xinxin.
It turned out that during this busy period of time, his Tang brother Luo Sheng was busier than him.
What is Luo Sheng busy with?
War!
Originally, according to the trend of history, since the Spanish king wanted to expand the colonies from the Americas to Asia and turn the South China Sea into the inner lake of Spain, Spain has been diligently pursuing, first carrying out an expedition to the Philippines, first occupying Cebu Island in the Luzon Islands, and then serving as a springboard to directly threaten Luzon and Mindanao. Then there was a conflict with Portugal, another maritime power, and the two fought.
However, history has changed because of the emergence of Luo Xin.
Both Spain and Portugal have spotted a strong opponent, the crooked Luo Sheng. Moreover, Luo Sheng's navy is very strong, and Luo Sheng has already occupied Luzon and turned Luzon into his own territory. Spain and Portugal each played against Rosin, and both were defeated. So the two joined forces.
During this period, a fierce battle broke out on the sea, that is, the combined forces of Spain and Portugal and the navy of Luo Sheng.
The territory that Luo Sheng now controls is really not small, Wanwan, Luzon, Ryukyu and Japan.
And the ship is really strong, at this time Spain and Portugal were still wooden ships, and Luo Sheng's ship was already an iron ship. Although it is not a real iron ship, it only has an extra layer of iron sheet on the outside, which can be regarded as a strong ship compared to the West.
What is the war fought?
If it weren't for the fact that the weapon was too weak to the other side, then it would be national strength. Now that Luo Sheng has mastered Luzon, Wanwan, Ryukyu and Japan, the national strength is already good. How strong are Spain and Portugal?
Of course strong!
Every country has more than a thousand fleets, but these more than a thousand fleets are not in one place, and now Spain and Portugal have a large territory on the sea, and the thousand fleets are divided into four directions, and after they are scattered, there are not many ships in each fleet. In the case of the fleet that has come to the South China Sea, for example, there are only a few dozen ships per country. It was not difficult for Luo Sheng to annihilate them, but it was easy.
