Everyone responded in unison: "Don't worry, Yuan Weng, after I go back, I will immediately launch my subordinates to discuss the matter of opening the sea, and I will definitely grab this credit in my hands." ”

Yan Song said this, and sighed again: "Speaking of which, this matter of opening the sea, Wenhua also played it at the beginning. It's a pity that this kid himself is not angry, he offended the heavenly family, and ended up on a dead journey. If not, wouldn't it be his turn to make meritorious contributions today? ”

Yan Song's words made several henchmen a little dumbfounded. After a while, Yan Shifan said with a smile: "The matter of opening the sea is the first thing to choose a port, and everyone has to put some thought into the choice of this open port." Now Zhejiang is our territory, and the place to open the port is in these two provinces, which is convenient for us to stabilize the territory. In addition, Fujian can intervene and let Hu Zongxian take charge of Fujian at that time. But Guangdong, don't pay attention to it, let it go on in chaos. It's best to let Guangdong start a mutiny, and then I will use this excuse to cut off Wang Fang's head, replace it with our own family, and do things conveniently. ”

Yan Hongxin said, your father just can't forget the private fight, what good is it for you to be in chaos in Guangdong? In the event of a mutiny in Liangguang, even if Wang Fang's head is cut off, is your Xiaoge elder very glorious? But if he wants to say this, he will be a public slap in the face, and he can only pretend to be dumb.

Yan Shifan said again: "Now that the day of autumn prevention has come again, the court is a little more lenient, so we must be more generous to the border army." If you lose the battle because of lack of food, Zi Qian, you deserve to be beaten. ”

Gao Yao's personality is very different from Fang Blunt, and he has no concept of competing with the emperor for internal money at all. He nodded hurriedly and said, "Xiao Ge Lao rest assured. Ever since I took office, I've been raising money and just waiting for the war to end. Reward. Military salaries. It's a spill of life. You also have to ensure that there are no mistakes in the border army, especially on the side of Xuanda, you just have to rest assured. ”

Yan Hong also knew that in the Governor of the Nine Sides, because of the Battle of Jinan before, Wang Chen, who was not too right with the Yan family, offended the Heavenly Family and was taken down, and now Xu Yan temporarily took the post of Governor of Jiliao; Yang Shun sits in Xuanda; Wei Qianji sits on three sides of Shaanxi. These three people have a deep relationship with the Yan family. Among them, Yang Shun has the closest relationship with the Yan family. In Yan Shifan's view, Xu Yan and Wei Qianji can only be regarded as friends of the Yan family, and only Yang Shun can be regarded as the lackeys of the Yan family. Therefore, it is reasonable to take special care of Yang Shun.

He Wei said on the side: "Little Pavilion Elder, now in the court, someone impeached Yang Duxian, the former was defeated and lost, and then he killed the good and risked the merits, and the king cheated. I'm afraid that if this matter gets bigger. Yu Yang Duxian was a little disadvantageous. ”

Yan Shifan waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about it, this kind of impeachment happens every year." Even Yang Sima almost suffered such an impeachment. This is nothing unusual, as long as there is a big win this year, this kind of chapter is not a big deal. As for killing good and risking merit, he Yang Shun is a person I know the way, where did he get so bold. At most, it's not a big deal. To long live send someone to check, and then it will be up to my uncle to send generals. His words were deliberately raised in his voice, and he also looked at his uncle who was closing his eyes and pretending to be asleep while speaking, and Ouyang Bijin, the imperial envoy of the right capital.

When this Ouyang met in public, he didn't say a word, just slept. But he is a junior and a junior, who can be as knowledgeable as him? Yan Shifan also had nothing to do with this uncle, but when the matter came to an end, he deliberately raised the tone to let his uncle wake up.

Ouyang Bijin was woken up by Yan Shifan's voice, and he could hear the second half of the sentence vaguely, opened his eyes, yawned and said, "Donglou, what are you doing so much?" Which imperial history to send, that's Zhou Zongxian's business, I'm just a vice-constitution, it's okay to say two sentences, if it's a decision, it's overstepping. I can't help it, I can't help it. ”

Yan Shifan was angry for a while. Since the last time, he took the opportunity of Yan Hong's big break of the Andingmen murder case, and it was easy to bring down Zheng Xiao and replace Ouyang Bijin to come to power, the purpose was to lay a pillar for Yan Men in the team of officials. As a result, this uncle is a right capital imperial history, but he plays with some strange and ingenious objects all day long, and this right capital imperial history has no fighting spirit at all, so what's the use of putting you in this position?

But no matter how bold he was, he couldn't embarrass his uncle, so he had to suppress his anger and laugh dryly: "Even if my uncle can't get over, there is something in it, but he still wants to tell him." ”

Ouyang Bijin said: "I know, I know." After speaking, he put his hands together and closed his eyes again.

Yan Shifan turned his eyes away, not looking at Ouyang Bijin, but swept over the faces of the officials, and said slowly: "The stakes are very high. The imperial court has won consecutive victories in the past two years, and the heavenly dragon heart is happy, and at this time, Xu Sheng is not allowed to lose! If anyone loses the battle at this time, it will hurt Wan Sui's face, and I, Yan, will not allow him! ”

Everyone responded in unison and said goodbye one after another, Yan Shifan only left Yan Hong, and only said after everyone left: "Hong'er, I don't want to hide it from you about the things in Beijing now." The marriage between the Lu and Xu families has been completed, who do you pick and put it behind, the Hu family's affairs must be dealt with as soon as possible, if you can't do it, your father will do it for you. ”

Yan Hong knew that if this father made a move, it would be the result of his life. Thinking about it, the reason why he was able to allow his late mother to live until now is also because of his excellent performance before, coupled with his deep affection for his late mother, Yan Shifan can be regarded as giving himself a face. Immediately hurriedly said: "Father rest assured, when the child deals with the matter at hand, he will definitely finish the matter of the Hu family." ”

Yan Shifan slashed Sun Yuerong with a knife in the east door again, and talked about the past before and after holding Fang Dull hostage, and then said: "Your little concubine, you have to be able to toss." If it weren't for Fang Blunt's early birth this time, this matter would be difficult for our family to deal with. Now that your wedding is imminent, I think you should dispose of this little concubine too, you have been in the room for so long, you should have been tired of it. Give the money away, or sell it directly, whatever you want. ”

Yan Hong said: "Father, although Yue Rong acted recklessly, she was also out of kindness. If her father insisted that she would not tolerate her, the child had no choice but to move her to another courtyard, so as not to make her father angry. ”

Yan Song said: "If you move to another courtyard, you're afraid that you little monkey won't live at home." The young envoy can't hide it from his grandfather. I'm in charge of this, so forget it. No one is allowed to mention it again in the future, and it is not a bad thing to be left and right, if she is not asked to make such a fuss, Fang Yu may not leave for a while, and it will be difficult for Gao Ziqian to take the position. Hong'er did a good job this time, and although the Sun family was reckless, it was also crooked, and he made a contribution to our family. The East Building doesn't have to sweep Hong'er's interest. ”

Yan Hong listened to his grandfather's nod, and knelt down: "Thank you grandpa for your permission." ”

Yan Song waved his hand: "Get up." One more thing. That Hu Zongxian has now officially joined my Yan family, he is the governor of Zhejiang, a high and powerful position, such a general is hard to find, with him in the future, it is better than a million heroes. Since then, the southeast is the stuff in our bag, and in the future, the sea will be opened to trade, and he will help him to get twice the result with half the effort. ”

Yan Shifan said: "Father, Hu Zongxian has made great contributions to the outside, and he has no backing inside. If you don't take refuge in my Yan family, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have a good end. Since he is a wise man, he knows who to go to, and that is nothing. It's just that Hong'er has made great contributions this time, but the trouble is not small, Zhejiang's levy on gentry and commercial taxes, I am afraid that it will attract the attention of the world, and thousands of people will point to it. ”

Yan Song said: "Now that the state is insufficient, the treasury is empty, and the sea ban is not opened, it is okay to collect some taxes first." According to the old man, the heavenly family still supports this matter. Wait until the future, and then go up to beg, that is, there is no need to make a big fuss. ”

Yan Shifan said in his heart: Daddy, your old man is really confused. This tax on the gentry will cause a big mess if it is not done well, and once this opening is opened, who will ensure that no one will follow suit in the future? It must be known that the past practice of the Ming Dynasty was that the powerful and civil officials could be exempted from business tax, and as a result, the government and business were integrated, although the business was developed, the tax collected was small, which was of course not a good thing for the national finances, but made the official and business class make a windfall. This time, Yan Hong levied taxes on wealthy families, if someone follows the example and further proposes that the gentry pay grain and taxes in one piece, what should they do? Just talking about the Yan family's own hundreds of transactions and more than 100 granges, how much money do you have to lose! But Yan Shifan thought about it again, this kind of proposal was too shocking, unless it was such a contemptuous madman, no one dared to mention it, and no one approved it. Dad is now the first assistant, and he knows the suffering of the lack of money in the imperial court, so he is happy to tax Yan Hong, and he can't compete with his father. Xiao Ge Lao also kept silent.

Yan Hong saw that there were no outsiders, and in order to quickly change the topic, lest his family first cause infighting over this tax. He talked about the fact that Wang Zhi and Xu Hai sent evidence of the Yan family's communication and was burned by himself. The muscles on Yan Shifan's face trembled slightly, and he said, "Have you seen all those things?" ”

"Back to my father, the children have seen it."

"Do you want to say again that you have done wrong for the Father?"

"The child doesn't dare."

Yan Shifan smiled: "Don't dare? Prove that you really think in your heart that the Father is wrong. But do you know that I don't do it, and there are others who do it, and it's not just our family who can influence the military guards. There are also people doing this left and right, what do we don't earn for the silver, let others earn? Just say that your ship disappeared as soon as it was obtained, because the coastal guards regarded the theft and sale of ordnance as a common thing, and as long as they paid for it, some people would dare to sell it. This is also the way that the coastal military guards rely on to make a fortune, who dares to cut off their financial routes? ”

Yan Hong said: "What my father said is reasonable, but in the future, we don't have to use such a risky method to make money." As soon as the sea ban is opened, our Yan family's fleet can go to sea to trade, and there is no need to make a living from these things, and there is the face of the old ship owner and others at sea, and he is not afraid of not making money. ”

Yan Song said: "Donglou, the old man found that your courage is really getting bigger and bigger!" How dare you do it? Fortunately, Hong'er handled it properly, if those things fell into the hands of others, it would be Tai'a who held it upside down, and his life would be in danger in an instant. If you do such a big thing in the future, you must discuss it with the old man before you can deal with it, and you are not allowed to make your own decisions! It's not early, Hong'er go to rest, East Building, you come with the old man. (To be continued......)
