After an hour or two of negotiations, the officials left Zhang's house again, leaving only a distressed Zhang Run.

At this time, Zhang Run's wife came to Zhang Run's side, "Master, these dogs eat people and don't spit out bones!" ”

"If the distribution method they said was followed, then there would not be much silver taels left in the hands of our family in the end, and it would be 200,000 taels a year."

"And the other millions of taels have to go into the hands of these dog things, which is really a pity."

Why doesn't Zhang Run know this truth?

But for him, if he did this, he would be able to increase his income by at least 200,000 taels in a year.

If he didn't do nothing, then I'm afraid he wouldn't even have the two hundred thousand taels of silver.

Subsequently, there was a theory circulating in the capital that Zhang Run had already discovered the anthracite in Naxi Mountain.

It's just that in this process, I don't know why Wei Zhongxian knew about it, so the other party snatched it by stealing it and snatched it from Zhang Run's hands.

There is also a theory that the anthracite coal in Xishan is actually not Wei Zhongxian's, but Wei Zhongxian helped Zhu Youxiao rob it.

In fact, the silver taels obtained after the sale of these Xishan anthracite coal were only passed through the hands of Wei Zhongxian, and finally all of them were dedicated to His Majesty today.

Slowly, there are more and more such statements.

Above the court, there seemed to be an evil wind surging.

Many officials wrote to Zhu Youxiao, asking Zhu Youxiao not to compete with the people for profit, so that Xishan could return to the hands of the Zhang family, which can be regarded as knowing that mistakes can be corrected.

Zhu Youxiao still knows these things, and he has even learned about this matter through the factory guards, which officials jumped the widest, but Zhu Youxiao didn't care too much.

He just doesn't understand, now that he is a factory guard with his left hand and a eunuch with his right hand, why do these officials do such stupid things?

They thought that this kind of public opinion was really meaningful, but as long as Zhu Youxiao still had the army in his hands, it was impossible for anyone to overthrow him through public opinion.

Especially after the experience of poisoning last time, Zhu Youxiao built the entire palace like an iron bucket, and now even if these ministers want to poison him secretly, they have no chance.

And these people do such things in private, isn't that just delivering food to him?

So even if these officials jumped up and down, Zhu Youxiao didn't care too much.

What he cares about is that there is a very strange situation in the capital, that is, there is a big difference in the attitude of ordinary people and upper-class scholars towards the Xishan Coal Mine.

Most of the normal scholars joined the camp demanding that Zhu Youxiao return to Xishan.

Judging from their thoughts, if anything has something to do with Wei Zhongxian, it must be Wei Zhongxian's fault.

As long as it has a little bit to do with Zhu Youxiao, then it must be Your Majesty's fault.

The ideas of the scholars and officials of the Ming Dynasty have fallen into a kind of pathology.

It seems that if you don't have so many fights with Your Majesty, and don't let Zhu Youxiao let them eat a court rod above the court, these clear streams will not be famous.

In the past, the people in the capital also stood on the same front as the official master, but only in this matter, the situation of the people is different.

Ordinary people thought that this Xishan must have been sold to Wei Zhongxian willingly by the Zhang family.

In fact, they don't know what the truth is, but the point is that Zhu Youxiao and Wei Zhongxian are willing to sell these anthracite coal to them at a low price.

So that they can survive the winter at a lower cost, it will be enough.

The people also know very well in their hearts that if this coal mountain really returns to the hands of the Zhang family, the price of anthracite will at least have to rise a few cents, so how can they be willing to do it?

That's why the ass decides the head.

Zhu Youxiao actually won the support of ordinary people in the capital and the north and south for the first time through this strange way.

Subsequently, there were more and more officials in the court, and this matter became more and more fierce.

As more and more ministers joined this camp, Wei Zhongxian's heart was also a little empty.

He hurriedly sent someone to Yamen to get the deed of the transfer of ownership in Xishan for archiving.

Who would have thought that even his Wei Zhongxian's people went to the yamen, but they couldn't find the contract.

In other words, there is no evidence to prove that the Zhang family took the initiative to sell Xishan to Wei Zhongxian.

These officials of the yamen did not dare to oppose Wei Zhongxian, but now they have done so.

That proves that this is no longer just because of the fate of Xishan, but a huge extermination campaign launched by the Donglin Party, the purpose of which is naturally to get him down Wei Zhongxian.

Over the years, Wei Zhongxian has killed many Donglin Party members, but the Donglin Party members still keep fighting against him.

So many Donglin Party members died, and I didn't feel scared when I saw them.

Wei Zhongxian hurriedly came to the New Army Barracks in Xinfeng County to find Zhu Youxiao.

Zhu Youxiao has been spending more and more time in the barracks recently, and he no longer does the carpenter work in the past.

He stared at the army like his own child.

"Your Majesty, looking at it this way, this matter is not necessarily just for the slaves and maids, they are making such a big fuss, it seems as if we don't pay attention to it."

There are some things that Wei Zhongxian doesn't need to say too much, Zhu Youxiao can naturally understand.

"Then let them make trouble, the last thing that is lacking in this court is officials."

"How many of those officials in the court do you say are still loyal to their duties?"

"Just the thousands of taels of silver we earn a year, so that they are so red-eyed? What a disappointment for me. ”

"You should prepare more, pay attention to the low-level officials and middle-level officials, which ones are more talented, and you can move after a while."

"In addition, the people over there in Nanjing can also say hello a lot, they have experience, even if they are transferred to the capital, they can be used immediately."

When Wei Zhongxian heard this, even with his iron heart, he felt very shocked in his heart, as if he had seen a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

He couldn't help but sigh, Your Majesty's heart is much harder now than before, it seems that Your Majesty is iron-hearted this time.

Zhu Youxiao thought about it, but a demonic smile appeared on his face, as if he was afraid that he was not fully prepared.

"If you look at it this way, the manpower of this East Factory and Jinyiwei is a bit insufficient."

"Let Dongchang and Jinyiwei transfer a group of usable manpower from the north and south to Beijing, don't really deal with things at that time, but shout that there is not enough manpower."

"There will be a war next year, and if we get rid of this group of people this year, we will be able to stabilize a lot next year."

"When the time comes, I will lead my troops to the north to fight, and I will be able to feel more at peace."
