Chapter 17: Confused! When I exterminate you profiteers, it's all mine!
"I'm so blind to look at this thing."
In the Yanzheng Yamen, Li Yunze, who turned off his mobile phone, looked uneasy.
When he was in the modern world, he downloaded a lot of film and television dramas and variety shows for pastime in the Ming Dynasty.
I just clicked on an internal entertainment variety show to watch it, and then I was disgusted.
"That's, a bunch of pretending to beep are there to play how to pretend to beep for me?"
Watching entertainment shows is to be happy and happy, but this show is to watch a long needle.
This kind of show can still have a tasteful existence, this is really... Ahem.
"The Emperor."
Wang Chengen, who was outside the door, respectfully reported: "Xu Hongji, Duke of Wei, please see Your Majesty." ”
After being cleaned up, the arrogant Jiangnan nobles finally learned what the rules are, and now they are honestly starting to follow the procedures.
"Call him in."
Xu Hongji, known as the first person in Jiangnan, came in to salute respectfully and meticulously bring the process to a meticulous pace.
"Minister, Xu Hongji. Audience Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live~~~"
"Excuse me, give me a seat."
Wang Chengen moved a stool over, and Xu Hongji thanked him and sat on half of his buttocks.
This kind of gesture is usually done by people who ask to see him, and Xu Hongji didn't expect that he would have such a thing in his lifetime.
Li Yunze, who was in a bad mood, turned pale: "What's the matter with Wei Guogong?" ”
"Hooray."
Xu Hongji, who had a very low posture, said respectfully, "The people of Jiangnan heard that long live the arrival of Jiangnan, cheered and cried with joy." The minister is entrusted by the people of Jiangnan, and specially invites Long Live to move to the dust and wash the dust, so that the people of Jiangnan can get a face to the sky. ”
"The people of Jiangnan?"
Li Yunze sighed for a while: "The people in Jiangnan in your mouth must all start with a net worth." ”
Xu Hongji, who said this, didn't know how to answer, so he could only lower his head and pretend that he was deaf.
Li Yunze, who didn't want to do these superficial jobs, glanced at the mobile phone on the table, and immediately nodded, "It's hard to be gracious, then go." ”
He would rather deal with those 'Jiangnan people' than watch the performance of pretending to be a thief.
The mighty team left Yangzhou City, and after leaving the city, they went straight to Slender West Lake.
Yangzhou Slender West Lake is not as famous as Hangzhou West Lake.
But in terms of scenery, it is not bad at all.
The vast surface of the lake reflects the blue sky, white clouds, red flowers, and green trees.
At a glance, the scenery is beautiful and refreshing.
It's just that those who beat gongs, drums, and firecrackers, as well as the roads covered with yellow sand and blankets under their feet, all affected Li Yunze's mood.
There are a lot of 'Jiangnan people' gathered on the shore.
Those nobles, civil and military, celebrities and gentry needless to say. More of them are the 'common people' who are richly dressed and wearing gems in their hands.
Looking at their pot-bellied stomachs, oily faces, and thick necks, Li Yunze immediately smiled.
"If all the people in the world are like this, then I can also smile at Jiuquan."
Nourish the body, transfer and nourish the qi.
Food, clothing, shelter and transportation are well used, and they are flattered all day long, and they do not have to go down to the fields to work and toil.
It's really normal for the 'people of Jiangnan' to look like this.
Looking at the manor on the edge of the Slender West Lake in front of him, Li Yunze casually asked, "Where is this?" ”
"Hooray." Xu Hongji immediately responded, "This place is the courtyard of Yangzhou Yishang Jiangchun, and it is called Wuzhi Garden." ”
"The Garden of the Unsullied? I'm still eleven years old. Li Yunze dropped such a clueless sentence, and Xu Hongji was stunned when he heard it.
"Eleven Lang? Which Eleven Lang? The first emperor had eleven sons? ”
This is a typical manor in the south of the Yangtze River, with landscape gardens and Hui style architecture.
In the park, there is living water from Slender West Lake, which meanders and flows dotted with pond springs.
The rockeries and strange rocks everywhere are all transported from Taihu Lake.
After the careful polishing of the stonemason, it is very beautiful to look at.
In accordance with feng shui and aesthetics, many exotic flowers and plants and precious trees are planted in the garden.
Obviously, the sun is empty at this time, but walking in the garden is shaded by trees, and the grass and trees are green.
There are not only towering pavilions in the park, but also water pavilions on the edge of Slender West Lake.
Pavilions and pavilions are dotted between the mountains and rivers and green shades, which is very charming.
Li Yunze, who had never seen this kind of landscape garden, was more and more amazed the more he looked at it, "The imperial garden in the Forbidden City is a grass shed in the countryside compared to here." ”
Jiang Chun immediately made the first salute, "Your Majesty, the grass people are willing to dedicate this garden to Long live." ”
For example, the lot and interior decoration of this garden can't be brought down.
Others may be amazed by Jiang Chun's generosity, but for Li Yunze, who is used to seeing gold and silver, there is no need at all.
'Confused! When I exterminate you profiteers, it's all mine! ’
Li Yunze, who smiled but did not speak, waved his hand and continued to look left and right.
The venue for the banquet is located in front of one of the largest rockeries in the park.
This rockery not only has a charm, but also refers to the water of the Slender West Lake, which is separated by a wall, and can form a spring from the rockery to flow down slowly.
The spring flows into a pond at the foot of the mountain, and a large platform is built in the pool.
The rockery is strange, the spring water is murmuring, the water lily blossoms, and the mandarin ducks are flying.
It's a beautiful picture of a fairyland on earth.
is the image of those 'Jiangnan people' who walked on the platform, which is a bit of a bad scenery.
The area of the water platform is not small, but in addition to a large number of brocade guards and accompanying civil and military personnel, plus Jiangnan nobles and local officials, only more than ten 'Jiangnan people' can be seated.
"Hooray."
Seeing that the atmosphere was good, Xu Hongji took the initiative to help beat the side drum, "This is the whole innocent garden, and the scenery is the most beautiful place." Here you have to gather three friends and laugh and talk about the wind and moon. It's one of life's great joys. ”
"Listen to you." Looking at Xu Hongji, who was looking intoxicated with remembrance, Li Yunze turned his head slightly and squinted, "You seem to come often." ”
"Minister, the minister has only been here twice."
Seeing Xu Hongji in an embarrassing situation, Jiang Chun hurriedly came forward to relieve the siege.
"Your Majesty, the grass people and others have prepared a song and dance for Banzai."
Li Yunze's attention was really attracted to the past: "Oh? Then come on. ”
After a short time, a girl in a moon-white dress slowly walked onto the platform.
The girl is very tall, at least 1.6 meters or more.
The sideburns are like clouds, and the peach blossoms are all over the face. The facial features are bright and atmospheric, and the shoulder and neck lines are quite beautiful, which is simply a natural clothes rack.
"Your Majesty, this is a girl from the south of the Yangtze River who has the best reputation in Nanqu." Jiang Chun, who was smiling, introduced: "I have brought a carefully prepared repertoire for Your Majesty. ”
Li Yunze nodded with a smile: "Then let's start." ”
Gu Hengbo sang the southern song, and the tone was definitely very professional.
It's just that Li Yunze didn't understand it at all, because Gu Hengbo was singing the sea salt cavity.
Everyone in Jiangnan listened to it very intoxicated, and there were even those with beats attached.
Li Yunze, who doesn't understand, can only appreciate the beauty.
To be selected and sent to him, the conditions in all aspects are naturally top-notch.
Li Yunze's eyes were full of appreciation, and the people who paid attention to him were all happy in their hearts.
Young Mu Ai, if the young emperor can indulge in beauty, then they can really feel at ease.
At the end of the song, Gu Hengbo stepped forward to salute, and Li Yunze beckoned Wang Chengen to "reward her with twenty taels of silver." ”
Twenty taels of silver is a lot, and it is almost as good as a year's worth of a sergeant of the Long Xiang Army.
But on the side of everyone of Gu Hengbo's level, twenty taels of silver can barely make a tea circle.
The girl's inadvertent pickiness was seen by many people.
Jiang Chun, who secretly shouted 'bad' in his heart, hurriedly remedied: "Miss Hengbo admires Your Majesty, and is willing to follow Your Majesty and serve with all her heart before and after the saddle." ”
However, Gu Hengbo, who is only more than ten years old, is obviously not sophisticated enough to control his emotions easily.
Even if he knew his end before he came, he still inadvertently showed dissatisfaction.
She likes the talented Jun scholar, and she has no plans to go to the capital to be a canary at all.
She doesn't want to enter the palace and not be able to get out in this life!
Li Yunze waved his hand noncommittally, "The only ones who can follow me before and after the saddle are the warriors who defend the country and expand the territory." ”
Immediately, his eyes fell on Jiang Chun's body, "I heard that you are the head of the Salt Guild?" ”
"This..."Jiang Chun, who knew that the topic was coming, smiled even more, "It's all peers who carry love, grass people..."
"I ask you if you are or not." Li Yunze looked at him expressionlessly, "I don't understand the words, do you?" ”
The atmosphere of spring flowers and autumn moon dissipated in an instant.
Jiang Chun, who was sweating in his head, finally understood what the majesty of the emperor was!
When I discussed it before, I felt that the emperor was like that.
But when really facing the coercion brought by a strong genius, the terrifying sense of oppression is really breathless.
"Your Majesty, the grass people are the head of the Salt Guild."
Li Yunze folded his hands slightly, looked around, "The salt merchants all stood up." ”
After a lot of effort, more than a dozen people stood up in fear.
"I want to rectify the salt business, and it just so happens that you are all here, so you don't need to be notified one by one."
Li Yunze slowly stood up, "From now on, many salt laws in the imperial court have been cancelled!" ”
As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and everyone was dumbfounded in an instant.
They thought that Li Yunze would rectify the salt affairs, and they were all mentally prepared.
But no one thought that Li Yunze would directly abolish the salt law.
This has ruined the jobs of countless people.
"From now on, all salt will be transferred to the monopoly of the imperial court, and no one or others will be allowed to participate in the salt business. Salt shops, salt farms, salt mines, salt ponds, salt wells, etc., all transferred to the imperial court, and personnel and materials were all transferred to the inner government. The specific operation is all in charge of Wen Aiqing. ”
Li Yunze's current identity is the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and he just needs to do things and take a general account.
There is no need for him to do specific things himself, just leave them to his subordinates.
For example, the salt monopoly is such a beautiful difference that offends people, so he gave it cheaply to Wen Tiren.
Who made Wen Tiren a traitor, and the traitor is used to carry the black pot.
Xu Hongji, the Duke of Wei, couldn't help it, and jumped out directly, "Long live!" No~~~ The law of salt introduction is the law of the ancestors, how can it be abolished! ”
Li Yunze couldn't hold back, and smiled directly, "Xu Hongji, how much salt does your family collect every year?" ”
"You should keep the sky, lead the Houfu, and the Admiral Caojiang is just the right person in charge of official salt and private salt. The salt of Lianghuai is sent to all parts of the south of the Yangtze River, and it must be approved by you. ”
Speaking of this, Li Yunze, who was full of curiosity, stepped forward, leaned over and asked, "You have to have at least a million filial piety a year, right?" ”
"Minister, minister, minister..."
Xu Hongji, who was sweating, was already speechless.
The reason is very simple, what Li Yunze said is true!
"The Law of the Ancestors? Yao Shunyu soup is the ancestor, and they also advocate Zen to let it. For thousands of years, how many emperors have abided by the laws of their ancestors and practiced meditation? ”
"This thing can fool fools, but it can't fool me!"
Li Yunze, who was sharp-eyed, looked around, "There is only one criterion for me to act, and that is to benefit Daming!" ”
"It's good for Daming, everything is possible!"
"It's not good for the Ming Dynasty, everything can be wasted!"
