Chapter 50: The Book of Life and Death

It takes about ten days to get Zhu Yuanzhang's reply. This is still the case that Zhu Yuanzhang dealt with immediately.

If Zhu Yuanzhang had other thoughts in his heart. Maybe it will be longer.

He Xi first had to report these things to Tang He.

After He Xi and Princess Anqing Xiao Biesheng got married, on the second day, they appeared in front of Tang He refreshingly.

He Xi told Tang He everything one by one, which was both a public and a private matter.

Official, this matter is related to the imperial court's maritime policy. Naturally, he had to communicate with this general sitting in the southeast. Private matter, don't forget that Tang Kazuya also has shares in it. Not much, though. But this year, the capital has also returned. The rest is pure earning.

Tang He himself doesn't care much about money. But after hearing the detailed accounts, I was also a little surprised, and I couldn't help but regret that I didn't take more shares at the beginning.

However, the soup and can afford to put it down. Just regret it, and put this one thing behind you.

Tang He said: "There is one thing that I feel necessary to tell you. In the past few months, I have sent more than a dozen groups of people to Nanyang in three batches, some of them with boats, and some of them have found ways to go to Nannan by myself. There were about seven or eight hundred people. ”

He Xi was stunned for a moment, and was about to ask Tang He what he wanted to do, when he suddenly stopped.

Because, He Xi doesn't know how to ask?

Tang He sits in the southeast of the general management of Haiphong. He is autonomous in his own right. is a dignified prince, not He Xi's subordinates. South Sea pirates, as a hidden danger on the Ming coastal defense. It makes sense for Tang He to make such a move.

There's no even need to tell He Xi.

He Xi is also not qualified to know what Tang Hedu has done.

Today, Tang He told him that in fact, it was not He Xi's position that was recognized, but Zhu Yuanzhang's son-in-law, Zhu Yuanzhang's close minister who had the right to perform the secret fold.

He Xi naturally couldn't kick his nose in the face. So when he came to He Xi's mouth, he said, "When will these work?" ”

Why don't you ask why? But the stakes are high on the Nanyang side. In particular, it is related to the issue of Jinghai Firm, and Jinghai Merchant is related to He Xi's overall strategy. He Xi is qualified to ask.

Tang He said: "I didn't expect Nanyang to be so far away before, but now it's a little late to bury the shadows." I really remembered it, probably two or three years later. However, I heard that you have a good relationship with Jinyiwei? ”

He Xi said; "It's not a good relationship, it's just some intersection."

Tang He said; "You can ask them?"

He Xi was stunned for a moment and said, "Is there someone in Jinyiwei in Nanyang?" ”

Tang He laughed and said, "I didn't say it, and I don't know." However, these days, some people do not follow the right path and smuggle themselves into the South Seas. Some people are familiar. ”

Who is Jinyiwei's main opponent today? Not someone else. It is the great Ming nobles. Only the nobles of the Ming Dynasty have the strength to rebel, and with this strength, it is the original sin. Zhu Yuanzhang is naturally careful to be careful, and the department to be careful of is Jinyiwei.

He Xi can be sure that Tang He must have someone from Jinyiwei by his side, just as he must have someone from Jinyiwei by his side.

Even He Xi affirmed that Tang He was close to the Jinyi guards beside him. He Xi can't do this yet, this is because He Xi has a shallow foundation, and his team has been formed in recent days. It was formed under Zhu Yuanzhang's nose.

Not to mention, Princess Anqing got married and brought so much dowry. The largest part of them is the slaves.

Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to install people, it was too simple.

Tang He is different, Tang He has been through a hundred battles. Led countless soldiers. In troubled times, if you can be in charge of the army, you naturally have your own team. Zhu Yuanzhang wants to be placed, but it is not easy.

Tang He and Jinyiwei have secretly dealt with each other, I don't know how much. He can reach a tacit understanding with Zhu Yuanzhang. Therefore, the means of dealing with Jinyi Wei are relatively gentle. But it doesn't mean that Tang He doesn't know anything about Jinyiwei.

There is some ambiguity in the soup and the words. But the implication is clear.

He Xi said secretly in his heart; "Maybe I can really ask some about the situation in Nanyang from Jinyiwei."

"That's right." Tang He said: "The Jinghai business is completed. Other firms. Do you have any ideas? ”

He Xi said: "It doesn't matter if I have an idea or not. Importantly, what does Your Majesty think? I have already secretly told the court all the circumstances before and after the Jinghai business. Wait for news. ”

Tang He sighed and said, "Yes." ”

Tang He didn't know how to evaluate Li Shanchang. These days, Li Shanchang acted that day, and Tang He also inquired clearly.

He didn't know if he was doing the right thing. It's obviously quite a peacemaker. didn't want to push the relationship between Zhu Yuanzhang and Li Shanchang to the brink of formal rupture.

Things do not turn out the way you want.

------

Zhu Yuanzhang always pays attention to the affairs of the southeast.

If it's just starting out, it's still because of money. Now that the power struggle has been involved, it is not just money.

Zhu Yuanzhang was right more than once about the accounts of Jinghai Firm. He was also amazed at the profit of the firm. If the royal family is divided into five parts, all of them will be taken back. Today there are probably tens of thousands of taels. By the year after next year, there may be more than 100,000 taels. And even more.

It must be known that from the beginning of the Ming Dynasty to the end of the Qing Dynasty, the price of silver was depreciating more and more. The reason is simple, the biggest reason is the progress of human mining of silver ore, whether it is in large quantities in the New World. Or an innovation in mining technology.

In short, the more and more silver there is, the cheaper it is.

Therefore, the 100,000 taels at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty were much more valuable than the later 100,000 taels.

This can do some things well, such as enriching the Taiping Iron Works. The investment in the entire Taiping Iron Works is only a few hundred thousand taels.

"The benefits come from the sea, and the risks come from the sea." Zhu Yuanzhang secretly said in his heart: "Zheng He's sentence is right. However, He Xi is no longer suitable for the southeast. He needs to avoid this matter, Lu Zhongheng, that fool, since he has money, he will definitely not be able to save it. In less than half a year, the news will spread. The power of the Jinghai business monopoly will soon be dispersed. He Xi is too young and too young. He couldn't do it. Is it okay to have soup with? ”

The idea of releasing military power with soup and glass of wine was partially adopted by Zhu Yuanzhang.

But on the issue of benefit distribution, juniors like He Xi are not even qualified to speak.

The real power of distribution of interests is still in the hands of Zhu Yuanzhang, and Zhu Yuanzhang will not give this power to anyone. To whom and not to whom? It was an important power of the emperor in itself. But the emperor can't do everything. What Zhu Yuanzhang can be sure of is probably. There has to be someone to get the details done.

If he could, Zhu Yuanzhang hoped that this person would be Li Shanchang.

After all, after Zhu Yuanzhang raised troops, Li Shanchang was in charge of logistics for a long time, and he was very trusted by the soldiers. But now Li Shanchang has long parted ways with him. Naturally, it can't be.

Zhu Yuanzhang thinks that Xu Da and Li Wenzhong may be able to. However, Xu Da is in charge of the northern front, and even if he returns to Nanjing, the focus of his work is still in the north. And Li Wenzhong is certainly okay, but Li Wenzhong has a problem, his health is not good.

The historical deadline is approaching. In fact, Xu Da is too.

During this period of time, Zhu Yuanzhang was very concerned about the health of the two. even wanted to remove Xu Da's military power and let him rest for a while. But when I think about it, I still give up. After all, not everyone can replace Xu Da. Second, Xu Da may be open-minded. But it really lifted Xu Da's military power. It may cause political turmoil.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang gave up. But he still sent a lot to Xu Da and shared a lot of Xu Da's work. Let Xu Da have a good rest.

These two bigwigs in the army that Zhu Yuanzhang trusted the most are not good. Here's the soup and that's it.

Zhu Yuanzhang's dissatisfaction with Tang He is not that Tang He is not good. It's the soup and the too emotional. Too cautious and careful. Let Tang He do this thing, Tang He is likely to be wronged by himself. Perfecting others.

"Forget it, it's soup and it's settled." Zhu Yuanzhang secretly said in his heart: "I hope Tang He can do this thing well." ”

After Zhu Yuanzhang made a decision, he began to work. Among the founding heroes, the classification of who can be saved and who cannot be saved is particularly important.

Because Zhu Yuanzhang is not playing false.

This list will be the book of life and death in the future, one life and one death.
