Chapter 366: Glimpse the way of the world, Concubine Jing is more active.
Everyone has their own things they want to stick to, but there are inevitably things to be afraid of, and Ding Ming was born in a family of shipbuilders, but he is very afraid of water.
Even the mere mention of the word "water" now evokes unbearable memories of his childhood, making his tone very unnatural.
Afraid of water?
Liu Jin shook his head slightly, not sympathizing with this Gongbu Langzhong who was pestering the emperor.
If he had such great skills to replace Liu Zhang, it would be fine, but now Liu Zhang is about to lead the fleet to find the treasure species, and as a result, this water-afraid Lang Zhong still wants to pull the hindrance.
"Let's go back! What I want is someone who can do practical things for the court, someone who can really benefit the people, not someone with high morals here! Zhu Youzhu raised his hand gently, not intending to bother with words again.
When it comes to this, Yu Ming is still drilling the horns, and he still can't understand his own approach. Even if you are a great talent, it will be difficult for you to entrust you with important responsibilities in the future.
Now there is not much time left for the rise of Huaxia, and even he may be constrained by fate, so he can't give some talents the opportunity to make mistakes.
Although when Yu Ming first stabbed Liu Zhang's embezzlement of ink, he could send someone to stop the voyage as soon as possible, but who could the Manchu Dynasty send to the civil and military forces, and who could be more suitable than Liu Zhang?
When it comes to doing things, a person with high moral character is usually a mouth cannon, and if he hands over this kind of thing that can only be achieved through a lot of hardships to this kind of person, he can be sure that he will return in vain.
It is precisely like this, maybe Liu Zhang's character and morality are flawed, but this time it is not a competition for whose character and morality are strong, but who can shoulder the revitalization mission of overcoming all difficulties and bringing back the treasure seed.
"Ministers Yu Ming retired, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Yu Ming saluted respectfully, and then left the Heart Cultivation Hall in embarrassment.
The sky in Beijing was gray, and the spring rain that had just stopped was falling again.
Yu Ming walked out of the Heart Nourishing Hall in a dejected manner, and when he saw the continuous spring rain in front of him, his eyes couldn't help flashing a touch of sadness.
Although he can understand the emperor's choice, Liu Zhang, who is obviously a hypocrite who bends the law for bribes, is not the way he wants to see the world.
It's just that he was defeated after all, and he was just a nerd who was afraid of water, so what reason did he have for the emperor to stand on his side?
He knew that the emperor was not wrong!
He also knew that Liu Zhang really deserved to be killed!
What he hates now is this upside-down world!
Yu Ming suddenly resented his own incompetence, and he couldn't even compare to Liu Zhang and his ilk. At this time, looking at the rain line in the sky, he plunged into the rain curtain and let the cold rain wet his body.
After all, he still wants to change, even if his strength is very weak.
Nourishing the heart hall, here is as warm as spring.
After Liu Jin saw Yu Ming leaving, he said cautiously: "Your Majesty, do you want to send someone to greet the officials, and put this person in a place outside?" ”
"He's not wrong, he's just too idealistic! This world is unfair, only development is the last word, I hope he can understand me! Zhu Youzhu took a sip of the teacup, and shook his head gently.
Since he traveled through the past to become this emperor, his biggest experience is that the emperor can't do whatever he wants like that, and he has to make concessions and compromises to get things done.
Compared with the 80 million belly people, compared with the capital of the rise of China, although 100,000 taels to feed a corrupt official is quite helpless, but it is also worth it.
Even though the imperial court has been vigorously fighting corruption, there are a few officials at the bottom who are really safe, and they are all trying to make some money, and the loss can be said to be countless 100,000 taels.
As for disposing of Yu Ming, it is even more unnecessary, since he can tolerate Liu Zhang, who is greedy for 100,000 taels, what reason is there to suppress Yu Ming, who is of noble character?
Liu Jin was actually afraid that the emperor would hold his breath before he made this suggestion, but he could feel that the emperor in front of him was the real Ming Jun, and he also offered a sycophant and said: "Your Majesty Shengming!" ”
In the evening, the rain cleared again, and the air of the whole world was renewed.
When night falls, the Qianqing Palace is as bright as day.
Zhu Youji's daily routine was basically fixed, dealing with government affairs during the day and reading information from all over the country at night to keep abreast of the latest situation in the empire.
"The slave has seen Your Majesty!"
Niu Mengmeng and other palace maids saw Zhu Youzhu appear in the Dongnuan Pavilion, and they immediately gave gifts.
After bathing, Zhu Youzhu looked refreshed, and when he came to his soft collapse, he looked at Niu Mengmeng, who was grinding ink for himself, and said, "I heard that Concubine Shu called you over during the day today?" ”
"Yes!" Niu Mengmeng lacks the liveliness of the year, but the whole person still looks very cute and nods.
Zhu Youzhu liked this goose-faced palace maid very much, and casually flipped through a piece of information and said with concern: "Is she embarrassed for you?" ”
"Nope! The slave maid is about to tell you that the concubine wants to adopt a cat, but she just asks to be the offspring of the tiger! Niu Meng shook his head seriously, and then said the matter.
Zhu Youji's brows furrowed slightly, and he said with dissatisfaction: "Isn't Huzi already planning to castrate?" If you really want to raise a cat, are you afraid that there are no kittens in the palace? ”
"Concubine Shu hopes to be able to delay for a month, so that the tiger can be bred and castrated!" Niu Meng swallowed and foamed, and seemed to be cautious in relaying.
Zhu Youzhu found that people really wanted to enter the main palace, so he lightly ordered: "Tomorrow, bring the tiger to Kunning Palace, and let the queen castrate the tiger for me!" ”
"Yes!" Niu Mengmeng knew that this was a signal to support Queen Chang, and even happily agreed.
Although she couldn't influence who was the mistress of this palace, when she thought of what happened to the East Palace during that time, she knew that Empress Chang was more like a queen of the world.
Zhu Youzhu saw that Liu Xuan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, had arrived at the Xuan Mansion, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
In view of the instability of the Haixi Jurchen, he did not plan to go out by the Liaodong Army, but entrusted this matter to the Northern Yuan. Of course, if Mongolia wants to do this for itself, it will naturally have to pay a certain economic price.
Due to the continuous war, the Northern Yuan Dynasty lacked all kinds of materials, and now it can be said that he is sending charcoal in the snow. Although this move helped Manduhai solve her urgent needs, it could also further reduce her strength.
Although Manduhai gave his daughter to himself, he would never tolerate the emergence of a unified Northern Yuan, and strive to completely solve the Northern Plague in his lifetime.
The lights flickered, and it was late at night.
Niu Mengmeng has been standing under the lamp to accompany Zhu Youji, but standing here is nothing to do after all, but he can't help but yawn.
She likes the comfortable days now, living a comfortable life every day, hanging out with her cat every day, and getting a decent monthly payment every month.
Thinking of the letter from home today, and thinking of her brother marrying the most beautiful bride in ten miles and eight towns, her heart seemed warm.
Just as she was still indulging in the joy of bringing changes to her family, she suddenly heard the sound of slapping the table, which frightened her and hurriedly looked at Zhu Youji.
"God bless the Ming! Come on, Peace! ”
Zhu Youzhu threw the secret report in his hand on the table, looking very excited.
It was Qian Yi who was in charge of living tonight, and he was slightly stunned at first, and he had the impression that the emperor would read for at least half an hour, but he also quickly began to make a move.
This East Warm Pavilion is an important place, but when the palace leaves, it is necessary to deal with the candles here, and at the same time, the palace maids and eunuchs here must be sent out in an orderly manner.
The most important thing is naturally to arrange the emperor's bedtime washing, as well as to warm the dragon bed and burn incense, etc., the emperor's sleep is a top priority.
In the early spring, the spring is cold, so the emperor's current residence is still in the lower floor to keep warm.
Zhu Youzhi has a woman to serve every night, and tonight's woman is Concubine Jing.
Concubine Jing is as her name suggests, she looks very elegant and quiet, her face has the beauty of a Jiangnan girl, her skin is very fair, and her body is more like a meticulous carving.
As a Suzhou silk magnate, the reason why she was able to stand out among the 300 show girls was to a large extent because of her "big breasts".
In the selection of 300 show girls, the final candidate was actually finalized by Zhu Youji, and as a man, he naturally couldn't escape the fate of being a member of the Appearance Association.
A cloud and rain, fragrant sweat.
Concubine Jing's real name is Su Yun'er, and she is the most famous beauty in Suzhou City.
The family's ancestral business is to do silk business, and now it is one of the four major silk producers in Suzhou with its shrewd management methods.
If it weren't for Hongzhi's deletion of the family background of the previous draft girls, Su Yun'er would not have reached the top of the concubine throne, even if she wanted to qualify from Suzhou.
It's just that now fate has finally changed magically, the daughter of a silk merchant in Suzhou, and now she has become one of the only four concubines in the empire.
Su Yun'er's body is very fragrant and soft, with the gentleness of a Jiangnan woman like jade, snuggling up to Zhu Youzhu like a bird: "Your Majesty, what is so exciting?" ”
"How do you know I'm excited?" Zhu Youzhu smelled the fragrance of the woman, but asked rhetorically with a little trouble.
Su Yun'er is a smart and observant woman, and she put her hand on Zhu Youji's lower abdomen: "When you are excited, then ......!" ”
"Really?" Zhu Youzhu felt a warm current in his lower abdomen, and smiled evilly.
Su Yun'er's pretty face was slightly red, but she couldn't help but hammer Zhu Youji's chest: "I hate it!" ”
"When I was looking through the information just now, I saw that your family applied for a financial license, do you know about this?" Zhu Youzhu knew that this woman was thin-skinned, so he deliberately changed the topic.
Su Yun'er was secretly surprised, and she didn't care about Zhu Youji's salty pig hand: "Your Majesty, the concubine knew about this matter, and I thought it was an unimportant matter." If Your Majesty thinks it is wrong, the concubine will inform her father to stop this matter tomorrow! ”
"I don't want to ask for guilt, your Su family is a family of merchants, and it's normal to do pawnshops and other things. It's just that I hope you know that finance is no longer allowed to engage in usury, it is no longer a profiteering business, and you must not operate in violation of regulations! Zhu Youzhu stroked Su Yun'er's delicate face, looking serious and authentic.
From ancient times to the present, even in later generations, usury has always occupied a very important position. Now he has successfully cracked down on the elite class in the old capital to engage in usury, but it is difficult to ensure that the newly rising elite class intervenes, and Concubine Jing's maiden family has to guard against it.
Su Yun'er knew that this man was concerned about herself, so she nodded seriously: "The concubine will inform her father to stop this matter tomorrow!" ”
"I don't interfere with your family's financial business, I just remind your family not to lend usury!" Zhu Youzhu was slightly stunned, and then emphasized seriously.
Su Yun'er smiled sweetly, and said very firmly: "Your Majesty loves the people like a son, and for the sake of the people to have a way to live, he does not hesitate to offend the magnates of the entire capital to achieve today's results." The concubine is now favored, but she knows that she can't do usury, and she doesn't want to be disliked by His Majesty because of the usury of her family! ”
"You can remind your family to operate in accordance with the law, and it is precisely because I consider that they are operating in violation of regulations in your name, so I mentioned this to you!" Zhu Youzhu didn't want to restrict the Su family's operation, and seemed very serious.
Su Yun'er felt Zhu Youji's care for herself, but she still shook her head seriously: "Wealth is moving!" Now they may be able to operate in compliance, but the profits from loan sharking are too great, and they may not be able to do it secretly in the future. Now that my grandfather has retired, my father is in charge, but he is mainly in charge of the silk business, and the financial affairs must be handed over to the third uncle or the shopkeeper, and none of these concubines can be trusted! Don't hide it from Your Majesty, the concubine helped her father check the accounts a few years ago, but as a result, there was no one in the field who didn't do anything in the account books! ”
"I didn't expect Concubine Jing to be so capable!" Zhu Youzhu looked at this little woman and said the truth, and couldn't help but tease.
Su Yun'er was a little proud, so she raised her eyebrows slightly and said: "The concubine has been smart since she was a child!" If it weren't for His Majesty's draft that year, the concubine might be a famous female shopkeeper in Suzhou now! ”
"Okay, then you are the shopkeeper Su tonight, a famous female shopkeeper in Suzhou City!" Zhu Youji's eyes flashed with a touch of cunning, but he turned over and pressed down without waiting for Su Yun'er to react: "I'll see if Su Shopkeeper is really powerful tonight!" ”
"Your Majesty, you ...... Your body matters! Concubine Jing found that a hand had grabbed her waist, but she bit her lower lip to remind her.
Zhu Youzhu wanted the information just now, and saw the brand-new Su shopkeeper in front of him: "It's okay!" ”
Well......
Concubine Jing didn't want to refuse, or couldn't refuse at all.
This night, a cat that looked like a tiger squatted on the stone pillar, and it was used to hearing the movement from the bedroom in the Qianqing Palace.
It's just that it looks up at the bright moon in the sky, and there is a kind of egg sadness at the moment. Obviously, even if you want to castrate, you have to wait for several days, but now you have become a victim of the palace struggle, and tomorrow will be the day when it will not be majestic.
The spring rain in the capital is continuous, and the battles in the court are endless.
In the next few days, Yu Ming did not continue to impeach Liu Zhang.
It's just that because Liu Zhang can't catch up with him when he sets sail, he still really understands the emperor's hard work, and I'm afraid that only Yu Ming himself knows about this matter.
"Come!"
"Come again!"
"Keep splashing!"
……
Yu Ming made a crazy move, and every day the subordinate would be in his house, constantly ordering the servants to pour water on his body.
It's just that Qingliu, led by Qiu Jun, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and Cheng Minzheng, the secretary of Taichang Temple, did not stop impeaching Wang Yue, and not only demanded that Cheng Yi be released, but also demanded that Wang Yue be held responsible.
In the face of this endless stream of swords, Zhu Youzhu still decided to support Wang Yue, and did not make any response to these swords, and even disposed of several officials.
But what should have come has come after all.
Wang Yue did not sit idly by in the face of Cheng Yi, who was crazy and gnawing on sludge every day, but tried to investigate from the people on the same ship, hoping to solve the mystery of the shipwreck through these personnel.
It's just that although some people on the ship at that time heard some unusual movements outside, they kept hiding in the cabin and shivering, and no one saw Cheng Yi personally solve Wang Shouren and the others, so naturally they didn't know the real situation that happened that night.
"There is a negative emperor's grace!"
Wang Yue knew that he was at a loss, and he was also disappointed by the emperor's favor, and knew that only by leaving himself could he calm down this public opinion turmoil, so he immediately wrote his resignation.
His life was full of twists and turns, not only the high-spirited title of the gold list, but also the happy life of leading his troops to kill the enemy and be knighted, but in the end he was defeated in the struggle of the imperial court.
Fortunately, he met a rare Ming Jun in a hundred years, but he was reinstated from the people he had reinstated, and he was given supreme power and sufficient trust, so that Wang Yue did a lot of practical things after all.
Although he reached the peak of his life as a member of the Cabinet and the head of the Metropolitan Inspectorate, he could only leave in disgrace.
He was defeated, and he was not defeated.
Although Cheng Yi was not punished by the law, he went crazy after all, and it can be regarded as evil retribution.
Now that he is affected by the Cheng Yi incident, and now Cheng Min's political situation is going to destroy himself, this position is destined to be unable to sit down. It's just a good thing, and now he can finally return to his hometown to have a look.
Wang Yue handed over the written resignation letter to Hu Jun, and said helplessly: "Send this letter to Xi'an Gate immediately, and we will leave the capital today!" ”
"Yes!" Hu Jun knew that Wang Yue's intention had been decided, so he nodded helplessly.
Before Wang Yue left the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he came to the prison again, and looked at Dongfang Wudao who was locked in prison: "The old man is about to leave the capital, but there is only one thing that he can't let go!" ”
"What?" Dongfang Wudao took the wine jar brought by Wang Yue, leaned against the wall and took a sip of it.
Wang Yue looked at Dongfang Wudao seriously, and then said his guess: "Since you can calculate what happened to me and my grandson, you must have indeed seen the heavens!" The two words Hongyan that you mentioned to Your Majesty that day, the old man has been trying to find answers during this time, judging from the style you used to measure the characters for Gou Huowang, Hongyan probably doesn't refer to women, right? ”
Dongfang Wudao was about to give a more obvious hint, but he suddenly noticed Wang Yue's back, and the whole person was stunned. (End of chapter)
