Chapter 318: Zhang Juzheng, who has a big package

Seeing that the emperor suddenly brought up the topic of rebuilding the Shenji Battalion, this made it difficult for Yan Song and Xu Jie.

Immediately, I saw Yan Song pluck up his courage and admonish Jiajing.

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen thought about it, and still felt that there was no need to rebuild the Shenji Camp for the time being!"

After listening to Yan Song's admonition, Jiajing turned his gaze to Xu Jie on the side and asked.

"Elder Xu Ge, what about you, do you and Elder Yan Ge have the same idea?"

Xu Jie saw Jiajing asking him, and he hesitated for a long time before he answered.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Wei Chen's opinion is the same as that of Yan Ge Lao, there is no need to rebuild the Divine Machine Camp for the time being."

After Xu Jie finished speaking, he was anxiously preparing to greet the stormy reprimand from the emperor.

Who knows, the expected reprimand did not come, the look on Jiajing's face was quite calm, and he swept his gaze away from the two of them and said lightly.

"Since the two of you are against this, then you have to come up with a suitable reason for me, right?"

"Or are you deliberately working against me!"

When Jiajing said this, he suddenly increased his tone, and the meaning contained in it was self-evident.

Seeing this, Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng on the side cautiously turned their gaze to Yan Song and Xu Jie, waiting for their response.

Then, I saw Xu Jie's Adam's apple move, and he opened his mouth to explain.

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that the Shenji Battalion, as one of the three major battalions of the Gongwei Jing Division, may chill the soldiers if it is rashly abolished!"

"When the time comes, under the instigation of people with intentions, it is very easy to cause turmoil."

"In addition, selecting warriors from all over the world to join the Shenji Battalion is another big expense!"

"Right now, the surrounding area of my Daming is stable, so Weichen feels that this matter should be considered in the long run!"

After Xu Jie finished speaking, he added a sentence next.

I saw Jiajing rubbing the dragon head carved on the dragon chair, and seemed to be smiling.

"Elder Xu Ge, I think you should go and treat your eyes."

When Xu Jie heard this, his face suddenly showed a look of panic, and he immediately knelt on the ground with a 'plop' and spoke.

"Your Majesty, Weichen is guilty, please punish Your Majesty!"

"Hmph, Xu Jie, open your eyes and take a good look, who told you that my Daming surroundings are stable?"

"Although most of the Japanese in the southeast coastal area have been wiped out, the Tatars in the north are still invading our Ming border from time to time!"

Could this be what you said, that there is stability around my Daming? ”

When Jiajing said this, he raised his eyebrows, and his face was full of mockery.

Seeing this situation, Yan Song's heart on the side was full of joy, just now, he was still thinking about explaining the reason to the emperor.

Now it seems that the emperor has already made a decision in his heart, and the reason why he asked him to discuss this matter with Xu Jie is just a formality!

Thinking of this, Yan Song's face showed a look of being persuaded, and he immediately asked Jiajing.

"Your Majesty is right, Weichen supports the rebuilding of the Shenji Battalion!"

After listening to Yan Song's words, Jiajing withdrew his gaze from Xu Jie's body, and said with a smile.

"Oh, Elder Yan Ge, what's the matter, it's only been a while, and you've changed your hexagram?"

Yan Song naturally heard the mockery in Jiajing's words, and saw that his face did not change and his heart did not beat.

"After your majesty's teachings, Wei Chen understands that Wei Chen's previous thoughts are ridiculously wrong!"

"There is a way, knowing mistakes can improve the great way, and it was after listening to Your Majesty's words that Weichen changed his mind!"

"Your Majesty is really ......"

Before Yan Song could finish his words, he was interrupted impatiently by Jiajing.

"Okay, okay, don't shoot my ass!"

"The matter of rebuilding the Shenji Camp is so decided, let me think about it, who can take on such a heavy responsibility."

At this moment, Zhang Juzheng on the side heard this, and immediately stood up and asked for help.

"Your Majesty, Weichen is willing to share your Majesty's worries and rebuild the Shenji Battalion!"

Jiajing took in the expression on Zhang Juzheng's face, a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face, and he spoke.

"But Zhang Aiqing, right now, you still have the heavy responsibility of installing new weapons!"

Seeing this, Zhang Juzheng immediately cut the railway.

"Your Majesty, it is precisely because Wei Chen is shouldering the heavy responsibility of installing new weapons that you should leave this matter to Wei Chen!"

When Zhang Juzheng said this, he paused for a moment and continued.

"If even I, the secretary of the military department, don't understand the specific parameters and effectiveness of new weapons, how can I promote them?"

"Not to mention, gradually put it into my Ming army!"

After listening to Zhang Juzheng's explanation, Jiajing's doubts in his heart were all dispelled, and he immediately commanded.

"Well, that makes sense, so let's leave the matter of rebuilding the Shenji Camp to you!"

Zhang Juzheng saw that Jiajing had entrusted such an important errand to himself, so he immediately knelt on the ground and said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Xu Jie, who was on the side, was quite surprised by Zhang Juzheng's performance at the moment, in his impression, Zhang Juzheng was the kind of person who could not be in the limelight, not in the limelight.

Why is it that now he has begun to take care of everything, and he can't wait for the emperor to do everything by himself!

"There's got to be something weird about that, and I've got to know what the reason behind that is."

Xu Jie slowly withdrew his gaze from Zhang Juzheng's body and secretly made up his mind.

At this moment, Gao Gong, who had been silent all along, spoke.

"Your Majesty, Weichen has something important to report!"

I saw Jiajing wave his hand quite casually and commanded.

"Say it."

"Your Majesty, that's the case, since the auction of the sea voucher was completed by the Maritime Trade Division, up to now, the progress of those merchants who have auctioned the sea voucher has been very slow."

"Until now, I haven't seen a few fleets sailing, do you want to ......?"

After listening to Gao Gong's report, Jiajing also frowned, and immediately ordered.

"In this way, you send someone to investigate, the reason behind this, if someone has a certificate to go to sea, but is reluctant to go to sea, and wants to engage in some crooked ways, he will directly take back the certificate to go to sea, and then auction it!"

After listening to Jiajing's instructions, Gao Gong replied in a deep voice.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

At this moment, Xu Jie, who was on the side, saw this and couldn't help but interject.

"Your Majesty, Weichen has some understanding of the reason behind this!"

Jiajing saw that Xu Jie knew the reason behind this, and couldn't help but be interested, so he commanded.

"Oh, since Elder Xu Ge knows the reason behind this, let's tell everyone about it."

Xu Jie, after getting Jiajing's permission, told everything he had learned.

"According to what Weichen has learned, since the imperial court has auctioned off thirty sea certificates, many people believe that for a long time, the imperial court will not auction new sea certificates."

"Therefore, the value of these certificates to go to sea is getting higher and higher day by day!"

"After all, maritime trade is a high-risk and high-reward industry, if you unfortunately encounter storms and pirates in the whole process, you will lose all your money at the least, and you will be buried at the bottom of the sea!"

"There are many people who are unwilling to take such a high risk, so they want to sell the overseas voucher and make a big profit!"

"That's it, everyone is watching, and naturally no one wants to go to sea."

After listening to Xu Jie's words, Jiajing also understood, and said secretly in his heart.

"These guys use the sea certificate as an investment tool!"

"Hmph, when the sea ban policy was implemented, you had to secretly go to sea for smuggling, and now you are encouraged to go to sea, but you are still unwilling, see how I clean you up!"

Then, I saw Jiajing turn his gaze to Gao Gong, sneered, and commanded.

"In this way, don't these people think that the imperial court will not auction new sea certificates for a long time?"

"Then find a time to hold another auction and let all these people's delusions be frustrated."

"Those who are still unwilling to go to sea after being admonished by the government will take back the certificate of going to sea and auction it again!"
