In real history, Hongzhi really didn't want to kill Li Guang, he always trusted Li Guang, even if the Empress Dowager said 'Li Guang today, Li Guang tomorrow, if something happened'.

Li Guang later committed suicide in fear of sin,

Even so, the emperor held a relatively grand funeral for Li Guang under the opposition of his ministers.

Because of this trust, Li Guang also became a relatively troublesome eunuch in the Hongzhi Dynasty.

In particular, the emperor opened his mouth in the two aspects of salt and land, and eunuchs and relatives frequently asked for rewards.

As soon as the emperor allowed it, it was the opening of the thousand-mile embankment, and the salt of the two Huai and the two Zhejiang provinces flowed to the pockets of tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, every year. Li Guang is one of the best,

To a certain extent, this has exacerbated the deterioration of the 'open salt method'.

The Kaizhong Salt Law is a system set by Zhu Yuanzhang, and the connotation is only one sentence: the Central Plains and Jiangnan are rich and have grain. The border areas are barren and under great military pressure, and there is a shortage of food. Therefore, the imperial court used salt introduction as a medium and asked salt merchants to transport grain to the border and obtain salt introduction, so that they could do salt business for you. Salt is big business.

This has been maintained for a hundred years until the Hongzhi Dynasty, which was canceled and changed to a salt merchant who only had to hand over the silver to the capital to obtain salt, so who would transport the grain to the border again?

There are many reasons for this, and there must have been many drawbacks in the past 100 years. It's not like Koji once made it like this.

However, the Hongji Dynasty gave too much salt to the cause, which led to the 'salt inflation', if not the root cause, but also one of the reasons.

The salt merchants worked hard to get the salt in exchange for transporting grain, and it was better to bribe the relatives and eunuchs in the court, and when this phenomenon occurred, would it be necessary?

Moreover, even if there is salt, there is not necessarily salt.

Because the yield of salt is fixed, the salt is printed with a bang. Moreover, there are all eunuchs and marquis in front of them queuing up to get salt, and ordinary salt merchants are naturally behind, and this section gives power an opportunity to seek rent.

Originally, I thought that this change was that the imperial court could receive the money on the salt, and when the money was available, it would be quite good to allocate money and grain to the border gates.

But this is an ideal, and the reality is that everyone knows that this thing is to allocate one layer, and one layer is missing, and in the end, it will lead to no food for the border army.

At the same time that the border army had no food, the imperial court also had no money.

What a fucking bunch of geniuses. The dead are angry and alive.

And at this pass, there is a British lord like Dayan Khan in the north, and sometimes Zhu Houzhao is anxious for them. This has to be placed in the republic, and the north has already had a million soldiers, so how can there be a shortage of food.

Looking back and thinking about it, the overall productivity of the Ming Dynasty has not increased or decreased significantly, so whose pocket did the money and grain go?

Counting on your fingers, there will definitely be no mistake in the vested interests, which are some of the officials in charge of salt transportation, the salt merchants who have gone through the road of officialdom, the eunuchs who are guarded, and even some eunuchs in the palace, relatives, and the princes of the clan.

So they are all enemies of Zhu Houzhao.

Since they are enemies, it doesn't matter if their surname is Zhu or not.

Hongji allowed them to strip the flesh of the Ming Dynasty to mend their sores, but he would not allow it.

Today's events are just the beginning.

Li Guang has definitely gained a lot of profits. Rumors have reached tens of millions of taels.

But Zhu Houzhao estimated that he should not dare to take it out, otherwise it would be a 'shock', and he should die if he didn't die.

In the evening, the matter of Yuxiu Pavilion in the palace walking the water gave the civil officials an excellent excuse.

Although it was already night, Zhu Houzhao could imagine that the foreign minister's side must have moved, and the waves were turbulent - that is, he had to ask the emperor to get rid of this great harm no matter what.

Even the Empress Dowager Zhou opened her mouth and said that the emperor trusted Li Guang too much. It's a must-have opportunity!

At night, Li Dongyang's mansion is full of sages,

Xie Qian, Wang Wei, Wu Kuan, Wang Hua...... It's all in the columns. Li Dongyang sat on the main seat, Xie Qian was next to him, and the rest of the people were lined up, and there were seven or eight people down, all of whom were in good spirits.

This is the critical time, and sleeping or anything is no longer important.

It doesn't matter what you want to talk about, it's nothing more than eight words: Righteous Death Day, today!

It's just the prince's section...... Some people feel that they need to be informed, and some people feel that they don't need to.

But Wang Wei still said what he should say: "Li Guang is very trusted by His Majesty. It is not so easy to kill this wing. Although the opportunity is rare in front of us, it is not impossible if something changes. His Royal Highness and I are of the same heart, and we are headed by His Highness, and the momentum is naturally even greater. ”

"I don't know whether His Highness's words in the Qianqing Palace today were intentional or unintentional, and Li Guang was speechless when he said two sentences in a row." Everyone also felt happy when they mentioned this verse!

Therefore, I feel that the crown prince is the same as them.

Moreover, in the past few days, people have heard of the prince's reputation for loyalty and filial piety, which is naturally a virtuous king.

Of course, some people oppose the fact that the crown prince left the palace and wanted to buy a school palace.

"It should be intentional." Li Dongyang spoke up at this time, "However, I don't agree, let the prince lead this matter." ”

Wang Wei was quite strange, he quickly glanced at Xie Qian, and found that his old god was there, and he didn't seem surprised.

Li Dongyang continued to say the reason: "It's enough for the prince to be of the same heart as me, Li Guang is still the emperor's person in the end, and the emperor also trusts Li Guang very much, let's pull the prince in, is it a little disadvantageous to the prince?" ”

"But what if it doesn't work out?"

"Didn't the prince help us?" Li Dongyang asked rhetorically.

Yes, this is the case in the Qianqing Palace today.

"I believe that the prince will give a boost at a critical time, maybe just a sentence, and that's it. If it still doesn't work, it means that the emperor is determined not to kill Li Guang, then we still can't hold the prince, so why let the prince ...... Take the risk? ”

This is the level of the elder of the pavilion.

After many times, the above must know his style and ability, and naturally like him and are willing to use him.

Wang Wei thought about it like this, and also felt that Li Ge Lao's words were old ministers seeking the country.

"There are many things, when they are not successful, they should think about defeat first, and when they are not advanced, they should think about retreating."

If it doesn't work, what do you do? Don't put everything in there.

That's what I'm talking about.

……

……

At the same time, Li Guang is not sitting still,

It's really hearty for him to be able to fall asleep this night, not to mention sleeping, even if he has three young virgins in bed, he can't lie down.

At this time, who will save him? The question can be reduced to who else is he valuable to?

It's an answer that hardly needs to be thought about.

So as soon as the fire in Yuxiu Pavilion was extinguished and it was dark, he entered the East Palace.

It is also strange to say that there was no inquiry or obstruction along the way, and he was able to get to the Fang Hall relatively smoothly.

The candle flame of this temple is very much,

Seeing this scene, Li Guang understood, and his heart was both happy and worried.

The good thing is that His Royal Highness seems to be waiting for him, since this is the case, there is still a glimmer of life, and the worry is that this life is not easy to come by.

Li Guang lifted his robe and crossed the threshold, and when he was about to enter the hall, he saw that Liu Jin was standing at the door of the palace!

He's not...... Heavily fined by the crown prince?! Why is he still alone with the prince late at night?

So Donggong was very angry at the beginning, but now it is easy to forgive?

"Grandpa Li," Liu Jin also greeted him.

"You ......"

Liu Jin raised his hand and pressed it falsely, signaling him not to say more, "Things in the world, what is not clear, each has a fate, today is you, don't you know that tomorrow is me?" You and I have such a day here. If you still feel uneasy, come back to me. Let's talk about it after passing this level today. ”

Li Guang clenched his fists, he was deceived by this guy at the beginning!

"Father-in-law Liu's words seem to have seen through life and death, I hope you are really like this."

Liu Jin smiled and didn't answer, the matter between him and Li Guang is really not the focus tonight.

"Gonggong Li, let's go in, His Highness has been waiting for a long time. But before I went in, His Royal Highness asked me to ask Gonggong Li. Liu Jin raised his eyelids that had been lowered when he said this, and stared at Li Guang: "How much is your life worth?" ”
