By the time it was light, thousands of officials in the capital had already left for the Forbidden City.

Today is the first great court meeting after the new emperor ascended the throne, and no one dares to give the new emperor eye medicine at such an important time, and no one dares to be late.

Because I had to hurry, there was even a traffic jam on the road near the Forbidden City.

Hundreds of officials of the Ming Dynasty flocked to the Chengtian Gate, followed by the Duanmen, and the Wulong Gate crossed the Wulong Bridge under the leadership of the Han generals to the square in front of the Huangji Palace.

The weather is not too cold in the current season, and everyone gathers together to squirm and squirm, and various exchanges are still lively.

This will have to wait until the cold winter wax moon, and it will really be an old sin.

'Knock~Knock~Knock~'

As the dull drums sounded, the Han generals waved their whips and threw out loud explosions, and the sound of conversation gradually disappeared.

Honglu Temple singing ceremony "Shang~Chao~~"

The gate of the Imperial Palace was opened, and the hundred officials entered the palace in turn according to their ranks.

There are too many people to stand in the hall, and the green-robed petty officials who are not of enough grade can only stand outside the door and watch the excitement.

Li Yunze, who was sitting on the dragon chair, didn't feel how excited he was.

In addition to feeling that the dragon chair was too hard, he was sleepy now.

Last night, I found a goldsmith, set up a stove and began to melt the gold ingots outside the dormitory, and after a lot of tossing and turning, it was the second half of the night.

I was thinking about how to sell this batch of gold when I went back, and I didn't have any thoughts about the early dynasty or anything.

Li Yunze yawned and dozed off one after another, and the hundred officials below naturally slacked off.

It's not a lot of effort, it's already a buzzing piece.

Wei Zhongxian, who was holding the dust on the side, instead of reminding Li Yunze, was happy in his heart.

It would be great if the new emperor was slack off on political affairs.

In the end, it was the people from the Ministry of Rites who stepped forward first to break the hustle and bustle.

After some nonsense, it's finally time to get to the point"... Emperor Datian expounds the Tao of filial piety, friends of Zhang Wen, Xiangwu Jing, Mu Zhuang, Qinyi Emperor... Miaoxi. ”

This is the work of the Ministry of Rites, and to give the first emperor a nickname and a temple number, it is considered a final conclusion to cover the coffin, and it is a process that must be followed.

Immediately after that, the Ministry of Industry came out, talking about the mausoleum of the first emperor, and there were some changes in this regard.

The mausoleum of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was usually built from the time of his accession to the throne, and it basically took ten or eight years.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse was no exception, and he was very young when he ascended the throne, so the construction of the mausoleum was naturally slower.

The problem now is that the Emperor of the Apocalypse is dead, but his mausoleum has not yet been repaired.

The burial of the first emperor must not be delayed, it is not winter now, and there will be a smell if the time drags on for a long time, which is a big disrespect.

The Ministry of Industry directly kicked the ball to Li Yunze's side.

Li Yunze yawned: "What is the solution of the Ministry of Industry?" ”

"When more people are dispatched, work day and night." The Ministry of Industry chattered a lot, and in the end, it was summed up in only one sentence, which was to add money.

"Long live the money..."

Li Yunze interrupted him: "What about the money in the household department? ”

The head of the household department hurriedly listed: "When the tax has not been paid, the household department has no money left." ”

"Hey."

The income of the Ming court, since Zhang Juzheng's death, is Wang Xiaoer's New Year, and every year is not as good as a year.

Up to now, the annual income is only about 20 million stone of all kinds of grain, 3 or 4 million taels of silver, and other miscellaneous taxes.

In addition to this, there is also the income directly attributable to the internal funds.

This money mainly comes from local minerals, maritime trade and trade taxes, canal checkpoint taxes and so on.

The total number is five or six million taels.

It is the Donglin Party whose interests have been affected, and the eunuchs who have been attacked by the various towns, and the money they have obtained for the emperor.

After Chongzhen in history was fooled by the Donglin Party and stupidly canceled these eunuchs, the internal income of the Ming Dynasty plummeted.

Li Yunze, who has checked the information, is very clear about the inside story of these many interests.

It's just that Wei Zhongxian hasn't been killed yet, and it's not time to use the knife against the court.

Things have to be done one by one, and dogs have to be beaten one by one.

You can't force a bunch of wild dogs to rush and bark together to jump over the wall.

"Wei Daban." Li Yunze beckoned to Wei Zhongxian: "You can do this thing." ”

Wei Zhongxian was secretly happy in his heart, and immediately saluted, "Slave and maid obey the order." ”

The one who called the slave was the boar skin, and Daming was called a slave here.

Leaving a sentence of 'retreat', Li Yunze hurriedly got up and left the hard and uncomfortable dragon chair.

Wei Zhongxian was very satisfied, this new emperor looked like he didn't love the country, and the opportunity to control the emperor was a few layers greater, as long as the emperor was served well, the power of the court was still his.

Li Yunze didn't have the heart to pay attention to Wei Zhongxian, and after he hurriedly went back, he drove everyone around him away.

Open the space-time portal and return to the modern world with a recast gold bar.

Order takeout, take a bath, eat, and call to report safety.

After finishing all this, Li Yunze took two gold bars weighing almost one kilogram and put them in his travel bag, and went out to take a taxi to a pawn shop.

He was not short of gold, so instead of going to a gold shop, he went to a pawn shop.

The price here is definitely not high, and in the end, it is only 280 yuan a gram, which is about one-third worse than the market price.

But the victory is high security, and Li Yunze chose to take cash.

It's impossible to have a bank account, if a large amount of money goes in, hehe~~~

Two kilograms of gold earned him almost 560,000 in cash, which is also the limit of exchange.

If there are more, there will be people who will start to pay attention.

Next, Li Yunze quit his job, handled the documents and went directly to the international city of the Pearl of the Orient.

There are many financially developed banks here, and it is much more convenient to do anything.

Li Yunze first spent money to get a new identity, and then asked a secretary company to open a leather bag company.

After that, the remaining gold was sold in a number of pawn shops, in exchange for more than 10 million liquidity.

Li Yunze, who had the first working capital, immediately ordered a ton of 925 industrial silver in the name of the leather bag company.

The so-called 925 industrial silver is silver with 92.5 percent pure silver content, and the other 7.5 percent is usually copper.

This thing is mainly used in industrial production, and its role matches the name.

The biggest reason why Li Yunze bought 925 industrial silver was that it was cheap.

In the futures market, the price of one gram is only three yuan eight.

Compared to the price of gold, the price difference is a hundred times.

The comparison between gold and silver in the time and space of the Ming Dynasty is one to ten.

In other words, Li Yunze's business of reselling precious metals in time and space starts with ten times the profit.

Time and space trade, this is really a proper profiteering!

The logistics and financial system here in the Pearl of the Orient is very developed, and the goods he ordered have been delivered in a few days.

In the past few days, Li Yunze has customized a batch of knives made of modern materials and processes from a machine factory.

The name of customization is a machine guillotine, but in fact, it is a sharp weapon with a handle.

In addition to this, he also custom-made a small and precise hand crossbow.

Tied directly to the wrist, the finger control machine is packed with three arrows with amazing penetration.

Covered by the wide sleeves of the dragon robe, no one can see it.

This thing also has a stab-proof suit, which is used for emergencies.

Li Yunze didn't think about doing things by himself.

After doing this, Li Yunze opened the door of time and space and returned to Daming time and space in the office rented by his leather bag company.

"Wang Chengen!"

After Li Yunze came back, he immediately looked for Wang Chengen.

Wang Chengen hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "The slave is here." ”

"How's going on with Jinyiwei's side?"

Wang Chengen immediately lowered his voice and responded, "Back to the emperor, Luo Sigong said that he was old and frail and could not serve the emperor. ”

"Huh?"

Li Yunze raised his eyebrows, "Impossible, absolutely impossible." This old thing has been mixed in Jinyiwei for so many years, and he must have a vision. If you refuse me at this time, he won't do such a thing. ”

Wang Chengen hurriedly responded, "What the emperor said is that Luo Sigong recommended his eldest son Luo Yangxing to work for the emperor." ”

These words must be said quickly, otherwise they will reach the ears of the Luo family afterwards, and it will really be a mortal enemy.

Li Yunze raised his hand and gently tapped on the table, "Luo Yangxing." ”

In history, when Li Zicheng broke through the Beijing Division, he chose to surrender, rather than be loyal to the Ming Dynasty.

After Li Zicheng ran away, Luo Yangxing surrendered to Dolgon.

From these things, a typical three-surname slave.

Of course, at that time, there were many domestic slaves with three surnames and two surnames, and seven or eight out of ten officials worked for wild boar skins.

Luo Yangxing achieved the high position of the prince and prince in the wild boar skin, and even the first governor-level member of the wild boar skin.

Didn't say it, a proper second-minister traitor.

Such people...

"Tell Luo Yangxing to come to see me tomorrow."

What's wrong with the traitor, the traitor can also be exploited.

The next day, there was no need to go to the morning court, Li Yunze slept lazily.

When he got up and had breakfast, Wang Chengen reported that Luo Yangxing had been waiting outside for a long time.

"Minister, Jinyi Weibei Town, Fusi Hundred Households Luo Yang, meet my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

When you see the emperor in film and television dramas, everything you see is nonsense.

See is the subordinate to the superior, the meeting is the same or similar status, and the knock is mostly used for the common people to see the official.

When the officials see the emperor, it is an audience.

"Get up."

"Yes."

Luo Yangxing's appearance is good, tall and mighty with a beard, his eyes are attentive, and he has kung fu at a glance, and his image is very good.

After all, the Locke family has been in a high position for many years, and under the genetic improvement of generations of beauties, there will basically be no inferior products.

Wang Chengen led everyone to retreat and carefully closed the door.

When there were only two people left in the hall, Luo Yangxing was indeed a little nervous.

This kind of private summoning must be to do something.

Li Yunze looked at Luo Yangxing, "You are just a hundred households?" I didn't even wear the Flying Fish suit. ”

"The minister is ashamed. The minister is a hereditary brocade cloth guard of grace, who failed to make meritorious contributions to Long Live and did not dare to ask for flying fish. ”

Li Yunze smiled and nodded, "Help me do something, and I will be promoted to you after the thing is completed." When the time comes, don't talk about flying fish, it's not impossible to wear bullfighting. ”

Military attachés must be guerrilla generals or above, and civil ministers must be prefects of the fourth rank or above to be eligible to wear flying fish suits.

As for bullfighting uniforms, except for special exceptions, only first-class members are usually eligible to wear them.

Luo Yangxing immediately knelt down and kowtowed heavily, "The minister is willing to die for His Majesty!" ”

His ancestor was the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and his grandfather and his father were also the commanders, and of course he wanted to be the commander of Luo Yangxing.

"You go back and find a group of henchmen who dare to do anything." Li Yunze whispered, "For me, punish the thief!" ”

Luo Yangxing was shocked, but he didn't dare to hesitate in the slightest, and immediately paused again, "Minister, obey the order." ”

"After the deed is completed, it will naturally not treat your Luo family badly. Speak to your father again, and let him act outside with the brocade guard when he is doing things. ”

It was already obvious at this point, Li Yunze didn't want to spend more than a year expelling Wei Zhongxian.

He is going to kill Wei Zhongxian now and take back the power of the court back into his hands.

On the one hand, it deters the ministers and does not give the Donglin Party a chance to make a name for itself.

On the other hand, it's time to wait for me.

In the second year of Chongzhen, Houjin will enter the customs for the first time.

When the time comes, the lives will be ruined, and the blood will flow and the pestle will flow. also ripped off the last fig leaf of the Ming Dynasty, and since then it has gone to irreversible destruction.

If Wei Zhongxian is tossed slowly, it will not be until March of the second year of Chongzhen that the 'Wei Rebellion' case will be finalized.

And in October of the second year of Chongzhen, Huang Taiji will take the main force of Houjin to kill Xiang Jingshi!

Time is very precious, and Li Yunze has no time to play slowly with Wei Zhongxian.

In order to solve the problem, he chose the simplest way.

Cut the Gordian knot!
