Beijing, Huangcheng West Street. [Full text reading]

"Boss Bao, this early in the morning, why are you happy again?"

"There's a happy event, just look at him like that."

"Hehe, what happy events can I have, don't talk nonsense." Boss Bao touched his stomach, smiling like a Maitreya Buddha, and he knew that he couldn't help it at a glance.

"It's not that I saw the emperor come back, and then he still brought so much money, and the old bag and the small bag are all looking forward to." Tailor Sun didn't know where to come out, and interjected sourly.

"Hehe, Brother Sun, didn't Brother Remind you, right? The champion Hou Ye has always been a blockbuster, you inquire, now the rumors have spread, people who have seen it have counted it in their hearts, in my opinion, after today's court meeting, the emperor list will also be released, haha. Boss Bao was beaming, and his face was smiling like a flower.

Tailor Sun said unconvinced: "Hmph, the emperor has money, but it is not the Guards that will be given priority to expand, but the Ivy Academy, haven't you listened to what those students of the academy said?" Tang Yushi said well, a strong country must pay attention to education, no matter how poor you are, you can't be poor in education, listen, how good this is said, I think, this is much more appropriate than the great truth of those saints. ”

"Okay, what's so noisy about this? With the ability of the champion Hou to turn stones into gold, it can also be considered a matter for both sides to catch together? Someone came out to persuade and said: "What's more, Lao Bao, you are a little proud, but I have heard that the expansion of the Guards is preferential, and priority is given to the selection of the children of military households, and in the baseball team in the capital, only a small number of strong people are selected, and your kid is afraid that ......."

Tailor Sun came to Boss Bao's side, patted his big belly, and teased: "Haha, just look at the old bag, where can his kid be strong?" There are a lot of essential oils in the stomach, and I am afraid that I can't talk about it, right? ”

"The surname is Sun, there is a kind of you don't run, Lao Tzu is not finished with you today!" Boss Bao was furious and shouted loudly: "My kid is strong, when he joins the Guards, see how I hit you in the face!" ”

"When the time comes, my two boys will graduate from elementary school, and they will be afraid of you when they enter the junior college? Haha"

The fat and thin two who chased and fled laughed endlessly, and the faces of the bystanders were also smiling, no matter what kind of identity, what path they chose, a series of changes in the capital brought them endless hope.

…… Forbidden City, Zhonghe Temple.

The joy and expectation of the people, of course, the scholars and doctors could not understand, standing in the long-lost Jinluan Palace, everyone's hearts were full of bitterness.

Even if this is the first court meeting held by the emperor on his own initiative this year, it will not be able to make their mood improve at all. Even if there is no style in advance, anyone can guess that the emperor is determined to open the sea ban.

Last winter, Xie Hong also blew the wind through various channels, which attracted the attention of the people in Beijing.

However, language is powerless after all, and no matter how much Hou Defang and the roadside society preach, for the people who have never seen the sea and have not benefited from the sea, everything about the sea trade is so strange and illusory.

Everyone has heard the story of the Three Treasure Eunuchs, but after all, it was a hundred years ago, who can guarantee that there is no fallacy in it? Therefore, the failure of the so-called proposal to open the sea, in addition to the strong opposition of foreign countries, is also related to the lack of enthusiastic reaction from the people.

But this time it was different, when the saint returned to Beijing, the hundreds of boats accompanying him had already explained everything, and there was endless wealth on the ocean.

This time, the heated discussion was not led by anyone, it was completely spontaneous, and Houdefang, who has always been the vanguard of the emperor's camp, was even surprised and joined after the heated discussion was high, which shows how fast the rumors spread.

In the current capital, the opening of the sea ban and the sea trade have surpassed the guards and the academy, and have become the hottest topic, after all, the first two are aimed at young people, and for adults, it is still more affordable to see the benefits of the sea trade.

In this regard, the scholars and doctors are also worried and worried, but they can't think about it.

Folk rumors are inherently difficult to control, even when they are in power, they feel tied down in the face of rumors, and they are very powerless, not to mention that the power of the capital has changed hands today?

Can't control it, they can only watch, this sense of powerlessness has made them crazy, in such a situation, the emperor suddenly took the initiative to convene a meeting of the courtiers, the purpose is also conceivable, the taste in the hearts of the scholars can be imagined.

In fact, in these words, everyone also saw the signs of this matter, but after many discussions, they were all unable to grasp the point. In that situation in the first half of the year, the foreign dynasty failed to win the emperor, so what more effective way can there be now?

Therefore, before the last dynasty, the atmosphere among the people was already gloomy, and when they arrived at the Zhonghe Hall, they saw the smiling Zhengde and the two thin eunuchs behind him, and everyone's emotions were even more depressed.

It's going to be good!

"Today, I have something to announce to all of you......"

Hearing Zhengde's words, the courtiers' hearts were tight, Your Majesty, you are too direct, right? Even if you have the upper hand, you have to save some face for us, huh? In general, in this case, shouldn't we say that we need to discuss?

Li Dongyang and Wang Wei glanced at each other, and they both saw a helpless look in each other's eyes, the emperor was gaining momentum, and he couldn't resist it when he saw it, but if he opened his mouth today, what would happen in the future?

Because of his vital interests, Wang Wei was, of course, the most determined faction among the scholars who opposed the opening of the sea; But although Li Dongyang has nothing to do with himself, he is also very anxious.

Looking at his deeds and knowing his aspirations, from Xie Hong's many actions, he has seen a great crisis.

With the so-called patent fees, Xie Hong apportioned a number of fees to various merchants in Beijing, which ordinary people may not see, but Li Dongyang's vision is so old-fashioned, how can he not see that this is a disguised commercial tax?

The prosperity of the Ordnance Division and Zhenbao Zhai also shows that Xie Hong is committed to improving the status of craftsmen, coupled with the various academies of the Ivy, Xie Hong clearly wants to establish his own school and compete with the children of Confucianism.

Of course, the commercial tax is now limited to the Gyeonggi area, and the impact is not much, and the latter things are long-term policies, and they will not have much impact for a while, but the potential threat is already palpitating.

The most worrying thing is not these, but what Xie Hong did in Liaodong.

Tuntian, the New Deal, Li Dongyang knows very well what these represent, improve the status of the warriors, and implement a new land system! If these systems were implemented throughout the world, the impact would be comparable to that of a change of dynasty.

And the opening of the sea is just a stepping stone for Xie Hong to implement these new policies, if it can't be stopped, then the entire scholar class may be overturned, and the world will be turbulent!

But how easy is it to stop it?

Under the encouragement of Xie Sang'er, many internal officials in the palace were gearing up, especially the Eight Tigers who were qualified to serve in the court, what they wanted was to make meritorious contributions and catch up with the three fathers-in-law of the ancestors.

If he had opposed it with a tough attitude as before, the emperor might have instructed the eunuchs to stage a group fight in the Jinluan Palace...... In that case, although the court has no physique and loses face, what is even worse is that the courtiers are all old men, and they can't win! If there are a few more Tu Yuanxun like that, this Daming Sheji will be completely finished.

I had no choice but to look for an opportunity. Li Dongyang sighed, and glanced at Yang Tinghe again, and finally unified can only be such a countermeasure that responds to all changes with the same.

"Today, there is a gentle ...... of the general army of Jizhen Town"

The third father-in-law's voice echoed on the Jinluan Hall again, and the voice was still as harsh as before, but the content made many people breathe a sigh of relief, because this series of personnel changes had nothing to do with the biggest worry in their hearts, it was just the transfer of a few martial artists.

But the hearts of Li Dongyang and the others were lifted all of a sudden, after Xuanfu, Liaozhen, and even Jizhen were going to be included in the emperor's palm?

What does military power mean, these old politicians know very well, if the military power in the capital is in their hands, how can there be a eunuch beating the minister in the Jinluan Palace? How can Ma Shunqing, who was beaten to death by the group back then, be embarrassed? His command makes the force value much higher than that of the third duke, and in the final analysis, it is a question of who holds the military power.

Simply placing a few general soldiers and deputy general soldiers does not guarantee that the military power will be controlled in his hands, but thinking of another rumor of a stroke in the capital, where did Li Dongyang not guess Xie Hong's purpose and routine?

The Guards should be expanded, and the children of military households in border towns should be selected according to the Xuanfu practice. Jiangmen is also a military household, how can the children of Jiangmen in Jizhen and Liaozhen not run for election?

If you don't participate, you have made your position clear, then, with the general order of the general army and the emperor's will, it is natural that these people can be excluded from important positions.

participated, those children are both guards and protons, and no matter how much those generals are interested in the outward court, they can't completely ignore the life and death of their own children.

As for how to ensure that the guards are not mixed with sand and other details, Li Dongyang couldn't figure it out for a while, but he believed that with Xie Hong's foresight, eighty percent of them would also have a case, and there was no need for him to worry.

If the emperor's wish is really fulfilled, then ...... He raised his eyes and stared at Yang Tinghe, who nodded faintly, and then went out and said: "Your Majesty, Jizhen is the first town of the Nine Sides, and its important surname is really irreparable. ”

Zhengde asked indifferently: "What does Mr. Yang mean ......?"

"It should also be submitted to the DPRK and China for consultation, and the final candidate should be decided, and it is only right that His Majesty decides."

Zhengde waved his hand disapprovingly, and said very generously: "That's done, let's discuss it now." ”

"Your Majesty...... Yes? ”

Yang Tinghe thought that Zhengde was going to oppose it, so he subconsciously wanted to continue to advise, but Zhengde agreed lightly, with his shrewdness, he didn't turn this corner for a while, and immediately froze in place, and it took a long time to come back to his senses.

When he looked around, he saw that many of the people in the court were just as stunned as him, and some were even picking out their ears or rubbing their eyes, as if they suspected that these two organs were malfunctioning.

Of course, the scene in front of him is too unbelievable, the emperor actually agreed to the court?
