I heard that it was the information of the 800-mile urgency, and even the Taurus Wei did not dare to stop him, because the 800-mile urgency often transmitted important information about where the rebellion or where the enemy had committed a crime, and those who dared to block it were to be killed, Duan Fei shouted angrily: "The emperor is here, let him come!" ”

The post galloped to the downstairs where Zhengde and them watched the battle, he almost rolled off the horse, holding high an official letter with three big urgent words written in red cinnabar, and shouted: "Weichen knocks on the emperor, there is an urgent report of eight hundred miles from the south of the Yangtze River, please take a look at the emperor!" ”

Zhengde shouted: "Pass it on." ”

A golden bull guard quickly took the official letter upstairs and handed it to Zhengde, and when Zhengde opened the official document, the post man fell to the ground silently and fainted.

Duan Fei shouted: "Hurry up and treat this adult, give him some water to drink first, Your Majesty, what's wrong?" ”

Zhengde took out the official document and looked at it carefully, his face was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and he replied gloomily: "The Japanese false confession made Zong Shi lead the Japanese to loot Ningbo, raided the south of the Yangtze River and reached Shaoxing, and the officials and people along the way suffered heavy casualties. See you at the head of Tizong! ”

Hearing Zhengde's words, Duan Fei's heart couldn't help but sink, the sea has already been opened for trade, why did the Japanese still pretend to be an envoy and then plundered Jiangnan? Especially the Ningbo City Bosi guarded by the garrison? Are they crazy? It is conceivable that those who have been waiting for an opportunity can jump out and make waves again.

With just a flash in his heart, Duan Fei fell to the ground and said in a condensed voice: "Weichen obeys!" ”

Guo Zhen hesitated in his heart, gritted his teeth, and he also stepped forward to ask for his life: "Your Majesty, the fleet in the hands of Weichen has begun to take shape, and Weichen is willing to share the emperor's worries and eliminate the Japanese on the sea!" ”

Zhengde said happily: "Okay, the two Aiqing are really loyal and brave, let's go back to Beijing immediately to issue an edict!" ”

Under the escort of Jin Niu Wei, Zhengde, Zhang Rui, Guo Zhen, and Duan Fei rushed back to the capital, and Duan Fei, who saw Su Rong's sedan chair on the way, didn't have time to stop to say hello, so he could only send a Jin Niu Wei to say hello to her.

Zhengde returned to the capital, the civil and military officials have received the message, they gathered in the Jinluan Palace, Zhengde sat down on the dragon chair, and said: "You Aiqing must have known what happened in Ningbo, the Japanese are really hateful, I have decided to send Duan Fei and Guo Zhen to attack by land and water, and exterminate this group of Japanese invaders, Zhang Yue, let's make a decision." ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen has a book." An official stood up, Duan Fei squinted his eyes, and found that it was a little familiar, but he didn't remember where he had seen it, this guy stood outside the hall, the official robe showed that he was just a seven-grade petty official, such a guy also dared to speak in the Jinluan Palace, is it a speech official?

Zhengde was also a little puzzled and asked, "...... are you?"

The man looked to be about forty, and he replied with a plop: "Wang Jinglong, who is the secretary of the Weichen Huke, is the son of Wang Qiong, the former secretary of the ministry!" ”

Zhengde frowned and said, "It turned out to be the son of Wang Laoshangshu, what do you want to play?" Let's get closer to the prelude. ”

Wang Jinglong lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, Wechen thinks that the current situation of the thieves is unknown, and the garrison of the guards in Jiangnan is as many as 100,000. ”

Zhengde's face was as heavy as iron, and he was about to scold, only to see Wang Shouren come out and play: "Your Majesty, the old minister also thinks that it is not appropriate to send troops immediately at present, and should wait for the situation in Jiangnan to be clear before making a decision, otherwise it will either be a trip in vain to work the people and lose money, or the army will not be enough to miss a major event, please ask the emperor to withdraw his order." ”

Except for a few, all the officials in the court agreed with Wang Jinglong's opinion, and when Zhengde was still hesitating, Duan Fei stood up with a tall golden bull helmet and suggested to Zhengde: "Your Majesty, Weichen agrees with Lord Wang's opinion, and it is not too late to make a decision when more news comes in two days." ”

Zhengde had no choice but to wave his hand and said: "Okay, since everyone said so, let's wait for the news, everyone heard the news and rushed to the scene like a ghost, but it turned out to be over, I knew that I would not be in a hurry, and I would disperse if I had nothing to do." ”

Zhengde was about to stand up, when suddenly another petty official knelt outside the Jinluan Hall and shouted: "Your Majesty, Weichen has a book!" ”

Zhengde had no choice but to sit down and asked, "Near the prelude." ”

The man stepped forward and knelt down again, and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen is a military department to give Xia Yan in the matter, and Weichen thinks that the Japanese plague starts in the city, and asks the emperor to dismiss the Fujian and Zhejiang City Ship Divisions, and the Japanese will solve the trouble." ”

Zhengde was stunned for a moment, Duan Fei's heart was on fire, Guo Zhen was furious, and Wang Jinglong, who had just retired from the bureaucracy, stood up again and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Weichen seconded the proposal!" ”

Many officials have already been waiting for the momentum, seeing that some people rushed ahead, they immediately rushed out, and they all seconded the proposal to abolish the city and ban the sea and business, and some of the words were fierce, and even demanded that even the Guangzhou City ship company be shut down, completely closed the sea and banned business, and planned to starve to death the Japanese Kou, if they did not close the country and close the country, it would simply be a country that would not be a country!

Duan Fei had already explained in detail to Zhengde on the way that this plague would have an impact on the open sea policy, and gave a way to deal with it, although Zhengde was already furious in his heart, he did not break out, he sneered and quietly watched the farce below.

Duan Fei didn't say anything, he watched his nose and nose to practice his qi in this noisy hall, Guo Zhencheng's mansion was not so good, he stood there with a calm face, if Duan Fei hadn't reminded him earlier, he would definitely quarrel with those officials below.

This matter has nothing to do with Zhang Rui, and he will not come out, just like that, the four pillars of Kaihai trade are silent at the same time, and the officials who support Kaihai below also remain silent when they see this, those officials shouted for a long time, but they found that they were talking in vain, one palm did not make a sound, and the quarrel also had an object, and now people don't pay attention to them at all, and their efforts are all in vain.

The scene on the Golden Palace was a little weird, and gradually no one jumped out again, and there was no one who couldn't stop talking, Yang Yiqing, the secretary of the ministry, frowned, took a step out of the column, and was about to speak, but saw Zhengde yawn, stood up with his sleeves, and said, "It's all over?" It's all nonsense, and banning the sea can ban the Japanese invaders? Then why don't you suggest that all the land-based border gates and cities should be closed? In that case, there would be no need to spend so much money every year, so many people would not have to die, and Tatar would have been banned long ago! ”

It would be easy for someone to answer, and Xia Yan was in high spirits during the matter, and immediately stepped forward and replied: "Your Majesty, this is different, on land Tatar is fleeting, there is no danger to defend, but the vast sea is not easy to cross, as long as the coast is not profitable, the Japanese will be extinct naturally." ”

Zhengde sneered: "These words have been said countless times at the beginning of the year, whether the Japanese invaders started from the open sea or the forbidden sea, everyone knows in their hearts, those who are officials in the court must put state affairs first, you ask yourself, have you really done it?" The struggle for power and profit, I look very cold, very cold! After thousands of years, some people have commented on their merits, aren't you afraid of being pointed at the backbone and scolded by future generations as thieves who mislead the country? ”

Zhengde's words were quite heavy, and the civil and military forces in the hall knelt down and prostrate on the ground in a cold sweat, and shouted in unison: "Your Majesty, please calm your anger, the ministers are guilty!" ”

There were only a few people left standing in the hall, Zhengde glanced at Duan Fei proudly, and said solemnly: "Go home and reflect on yourself, and retreat!" ”
