Xiang Qimin said: "Don't argue first, don't argue, now that the chaos in Yunxi Prefecture has become a fact, what you think about now is the aftermath." If Sun Zhaoyuan is dismissed according to the performance of this Yunxi Prefecture official, then who can govern the officials of Yunxi Prefecture? There is another layer, I think you adults actually understand in their hearts, Sun Zhaoyuan was personally selected by the saint to serve as the governor of Yunxi Prefecture, if Sun Zhaoyuan is derelict in his duties, if he wants to kill or chop, he must also be ordered by the saint himself, if the cabinet comes up with a proposed opinion, saying that Sun Zhaoyuan will be blamed, isn't it a slap in the face of the saint? Your Excellency dares to act like this, but the official does not dare, even if he is afraid of borrowing ten dares from me, the official will not dare. ”

Jin Deha said: "Exactly, although today's son is said to be a generation of Ming Jun, but Sun Zhaoyuan is the person he personally ordered to go to Yunxi Prefecture, if we draw up a will to dismiss him and investigate him, how can this holy face be saved?" Sa people, this matter can not be agreed upon, according to the impeachment of Yunxi Prefecture officials to state their opinions. ”

Satulu listened to it for a while, only Yang Zuo was determined to deal with Sun Zhaoyuan, and the others either didn't dare to provoke Emperor Yan, or they had a deep relationship with Sun Zhaoyuan and wanted to protect him. It is also difficult for Saturu to get the cabinet to forcibly pass the opinion of dismissing Sun Zhaoyuan and investigating him.

Satulu said: "Now from the point of view, this Sun Zhaoyuan's crime, I am afraid that it is a certainty, if our cabinet lets this matter go, the saint will also feel in his heart that we and other officials are all wine bags and rice bags, but if the words are fierce, shouting and killing this Sun Zhaoyuan, I am afraid that the saint will not be happy in his heart." Why don't I wait for a few and write a disposition opinion, and make it clear that this matter still needs to be sorted out before it is appropriate. If you want to kill or fight, the saint has a will first, and we can only do it according to the will, ladies and gentlemen, do you agree with this opinion? ”

All the Cabinet ministers agreed that Satulu was the best way to do this.

On the second day, above the court meeting, Satulu, Yao Yungui and others reported to Emperor Yan, Emperor Yan said: "This Yunxi Prefecture is really an eventful place, some time ago, Yao Yungui and others reported it, Sun Zhaoyuan handled it properly, and the grain and grass tax in a state was overcharged by millions of catties, and in just a few months, they all changed their faces, degraded Sun Zhaoyuan to worthless, and asked the court to remove him from charge." How can this state capital be a place where you can change your face when you say it's turned around? However, Yao Yungui and others have made a setback, the facts are all there, and there are so many people for joint names, so I think it is better to deal with it, otherwise all the state capitals are like this Yunxi Prefecture, and the world is not in chaos? ”

Emperor Yan opened his mouth, and the various officials whispered below, discussing how to deal with it.

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu Kuza said: "Qi Shengshang, it just so happens that the Ministry of Industry also received a report from Yunxi Prefecture today, because Sun Zhaoyuan wants to lease the Jinhe and Yuhe rivers in Yunxi Prefecture to large private households. Sun Zhaoyuan is a bold person, and even Jinhe Yuhe, which belongs to the imperial court, dares to lease it to others. This golden river and jade river, since ancient times, has been the place where the qi veins of the Son of Heaven gathered, and the beginning of the dragon vein, if it was given to others, wouldn't it be for my Da Nie Er clan to hand over the dragon vein to others. The minister accepted this recital, pondered for a long time, suspected that Sun Zhaoyuan abused his power, and heard that all the officials in Yunxi Prefecture participated in Sun Zhaoyuan's recital, so he dared to believe that Sun Zhaoyuan was a bold and reckless maniac who had no court and despised the saint. ”

When Emperor Yan heard this, he frowned, and suddenly remembered that if the Ministry of Industry would play the recital to the court meeting at this time, then there would be no need to let the cabinet hear it and then report it to the court meeting, otherwise the cabinet officials would definitely reject the matter as a violation of the law. Emperor Yan said: "You will play it, and it will not be too late to comment on it." ”

Kuzaso hurriedly played Sun Zhaoyuan's recital at the court meeting.

After listening to this, Emperor Yan said: "I don't think there is anything wrong with Sun Zhaoyuan's proposal, although the gold river and jade river are extremely expensive, but if someone can pay 10 million taels of silver to rent this place to mine gold and jade, then the court will have the money to quell the rebellion." And Sun Zhaoyuan is a careful person, and he is also looking for the emperor's relatives, if my imperial cousin Sonaza takes over this matter, the dragon vein here is still in the hands of the royal family, and it cannot be regarded as trespassing. Yao Yungui and the others will discuss the twists and turns later, and now that Lord Ku said that Sun Zhaoyuan Jinhe and Yuhe twists and turns, he will discuss this matter first. ”

Emperor Yan started this beginning, and the officials below did not dare to say anything. This matter was originally a violation of the law, even if Emperor Yan said that this matter was in his liking, how could these officials dare to agree? The major affairs of the world and the governance of the country are naturally based on the law, and the words of the king are secondary, if the law is violated, how dare the officials come forward to take responsibility. If there is a malpractice behind this matter, the person who comes out will definitely take the blame, and then he will be implicated, and if the Son of Heaven pretends to be unconscious, he will have no one to protect him and fall off the horse.

Emperor Yan saw that all the officials didn't speak, so he said step by step: "My lords, all Aiqing, what do you think of the matter of Jinhe and Yuhe?" And what to do? ”

All the officials were silent, and the court was silent.

Jin Deha saw that everyone didn't dare to speak, and Emperor Yan was also embarrassed, so he broke the deadlock and said: "Qi Shengshang, according to the laws of the imperial court, all river mineral deposits belong to the national imperial court. ”

Emperor Yan asked, "Zhao Zile, the secretary of the Judicial Temple, what is your opinion, come quickly." ”

Zhao Zile was named by Emperor Yan, and had no choice but to kneel on the ground and play: "Qi Song Sheng, according to the clear provisions of the law, this Jinhe Jade River is a national mineral river, and no one is allowed to dig indiscriminately. The country's mineral deposits, are all government mining, there has never been a precedent for leasing large private households, this is to put an end to the collusion between officials and businessmen, the country's mineral deposits into the people, fat large households, slimming the country's thunderous means, if the lease of the Golden River and Yuhe, it will be contrary to the law, this case according to the rule of law, is absolutely unspeakable. Otherwise, there are tens of thousands of large and small mineral deposits in the country, and each state capital leases them to large private households, how can the imperial court manage it, if it can't manage it, the state tax will naturally fall. Jinhe Yuhe overcharged a few million taels, and the rest of the mineral deposits received a few million taels less, maybe the imperial court would lose silver. ”

With Zhao Zile starting up, the Ministry of Industry Shangshu Kuzaso naturally refused to lag behind, this Sun Zhaoyuan's proposal was to take away his ownership, how could he be willing to let this fat difference fall into the people. Kuza said: "A total of 100,000 officials and mining craftsmen from the Mineral Deposits Department of the Ministry of Industry of the country are pointing to the mineral deposits of the imperial court to support so many people. These officials and craftsmen are afraid of four or five hundred thousand people who drag their families and their families, and these people eat the imperial grain, which is the cornerstone of the country's imperial court. The imperial court also lacks a lot of foundation stones, and if the situation is turbulent and the people are in turmoil, it is also a force of turmoil. I also hope that the Holy Lord will dismiss the matter. ”

Emperor Yan asked again: "Hubu Shangshu Tong Jitian, this matter also has something to do with your Hubu, what do you think of this matter?" ”

Tong Jitian thought that whether it was the imperial court mining or the mining of large private households, the more taxes he received, the better, but at this time, it was not easy to show support and opposition, just because whether it was for or against, it was not a good thing, Tong Jitian wanted to reconcile the mud, and said: "Qi Song Sheng, although this matter needs to be in charge of the money and silver, whether it is mining or leasing, as long as the silver reaches the household department, it will be in line with the laws of the household system, and there is nothing wrong with it, so the household department has no opinion on this matter." ”

The rest of the people, because they had nothing to do with themselves, did not want to violate the law, and did not want to offend Emperor Yan, so they all remained silent.

After listening to this, Emperor Yan also had the biggest opinions on the Ministry of Industry and the Judicial Temple, if he wanted to promote the lease of Jinhe and Yuhe, he must find a way to block the mouth of these two key departments.

Emperor Yan pondered for a moment and said, "Since the Judicial Temple and the Ministry of Industry have opinions on this, I think it is also necessary to think about how to deal with this matter. From the level of the national law, if it is only for the Jinhe Yuhe incident to arbitrarily revise the foundation stone of the national law, it is inevitably a little abrupt and reckless, if there is a problem in the back, there is an accident, and then change it back, the people of the world do not say that the court is incompetent, and the order is changed every day. But from another level, if Jinhe Yuhe pays millions of taels more taxes a year, it will be of great importance to the imperial court. I thought about it, this law is unchangeable, and I don't want to bear the risk of the country's mineral deposits getting out of control in the future. But, this thing still has to be done. Ladies and gentlemen, if the imperial court authorizes the Yunxi Prefecture public office to set up a new mining department, appoints Sonazha as the head of the department, and then signs a lease deed with the imperial court, does it not conflict with the law? ”

When Jin Deha heard this, Emperor Yan really thought of a good idea, and hurriedly echoed: "The method mentioned by the saint, this lease of Jinhe Yuhe is a court department, not a large private household, so naturally it will not violate the law." The Holy One is truly the Most Holy and Wise. ”

With Jin Deha starting up, the other courtiers also reacted, and hurriedly echoed and chose sides to win the favor of Emperor Yan.

There was a chorus of agreement at the court meeting.

Zhao Zi, the secretary of the judicial temple, was happy to see this method, and it was indeed to avoid the red line that the law could not lease the mineral deposits to large private households, so he no longer objected to this matter.

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu Kuzaso thought for a long time, and then found the flaws in this method, and said: "Qi Song Sheng, the imperial court department can indeed sign a deed and lease the Jinhe Yuhe, but this newly established mining department, the silver taels, is also subordinate to the state, even if Sonaza is the head of this department, he only takes the imperial court, and he can't get a penny of the silver taels he earns, otherwise it is a felony of corruption, if he can't make money, Sonaza is also too lost, how can he risk his life to do this loss-making business." ”

When the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty heard this, they were also conclusively justified.

Emperor Yan thought about it again and again, and after a while, he also found a way to solve the chess, and said: "Kuza Somo panic, if the income of more than 10 million taels of silver is mined in a year, I personally reward Sonaza, I think it is also in line with the law." ”
