Just when Lu Fang was stunned, Jiajing's ancient sound sounded in his ears, pulling Lu Fang back to reality.

"Lu Fang, what are you doing there, do you have something to report to me?"

Hearing this, Lu Fang reacted, and immediately took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Jiajing respectfully.

Seeing that Jiajing's face was full of doubts, Lu Fang immediately explained.

"Your Majesty, this is a letter from Hai Rui!"

"Oh, Hai Rui got things out so quickly, it seems that I didn't see the wrong person in the first place!"

Jiajing said as he opened the letter and began to browse through the contents.

And the more he looked down, the tighter Jiajing's brows wrinkled.

When Jiajing saw the tragic situation described by Hai Rui in the letter, the local officials in Henan unscrupulously requisitioned the grain in the hands of the people, he couldn't help but slam the table and scolded angrily: "This group of damned insects and pigs actually dares to ignore the ban of the imperial court and forcibly expropriate the grain in the hands of the people!" ”

"Not only that, but he actually dares to do anything with the grain stored in the granary, Lu Fang, do you know how much silver Hai Rui copied from their home?"

When Jiajing said this, he paused for a moment and said to himself.

"Five million two hundred and sixty thousand taels!"

"I'm going to kill them all one by one!"

Hearing Jiajing's murderous words, Lu Fang on the side was taken aback.

Subsequently, Jiajing's mood gradually calmed down, turned his gaze to Lu Fang on the side, and asked, "Lu Fang, do you think it is better for someone to take over as the governor of Henan next?" ”

When Lu Fang heard this, he hurriedly lowered his head, his face full of humility.

"Your Majesty, the slave maid doesn't understand this, and the slave maid thinks it's better to let Yan Ge Lao and them discuss the right candidate."

Seeing this, Jiajing had no choice but to give up this idea, and immediately ordered.

"That's it, Lu Fang, you go and call Yan Song and Xu Jie to me, and say that I have something to discuss with them!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After Lu Fang responded, he turned around and left the Heart Cultivation Palace.

……

The capital, the mansion of Xu Jie.

Since Jiajing officially proposed the policy that officials should have one day off every week regardless of rank, Xu Jie suddenly felt a lot lighter on his shoulders.

And today, it happened to be the day when Xu Jie's rest, and after thinking about it, Xu Jie's final decision was not to do anything!

I saw Xu Jie lying on the chair without any image and closing his eyes to recuperate, and there was a pot of steaming tea on the table next to him, just as Xu Jie was enjoying this rare leisure time, there was a knock on the door from outside the door.

When Xu Jie heard the movement, he couldn't help frowning, and then opened his eyes very reluctantly, his face was quite cold.

"Come in!"

Xu Jie's voice fell, the door of the room was pushed open, and a servant walked in, trembling.

"Master, Grandpa Lu is here."

Xu Jie learned the news from the slave's mouth, and suddenly got up from his seat, his face full of surprise.

"What, take me there!"

Next, Xu Jie, led by the slave, came to the waiting room and saw Lu Fang, who was sitting on a chair at the moment, leisurely drinking tea.

Seeing Xu Jie's arrival, Lu Fang took a sip of tea, then got up from the seat unhurriedly, smiled and said slowly.

"Elder Xu Ge, Your Majesty asked you to come over, saying that there is something important to discuss with you."

"Gonggong Lu, dare to ask Your Majesty to find Weichen, what is the matter to discuss?"

After thinking for a while, Xu Jie immediately organized his language and asked Lu Fang cautiously.

But Lu Fang didn't mean to answer Xu Jie's doubts, but just chuckled: "Elder Xu Ge, you'll know when you go!" ”

……

When Xu Jie followed Lu Fang's steps and came to wait outside the Heart Cultivation Palace, he suddenly found that Yan Song actually arrived at the Heart Cultivation Hall one step ahead of him.

Then, Xu Jie came to Yan Song's side and stood still, their eyes intersected, and they both wanted to see something in each other's eyes.

Then, I saw Lu Fang take a step forward and admonish.

"Wait a minute, I'll go and ask Your Majesty!"

"I'm tired of Grandpa Lu!"

When Yan Song and Xu Jie heard this, they immediately bowed slightly to Lu Fang.

Lu Fang nodded, and then stepped up the steps on his own and stepped into the Heart Cultivation Palace.

After Lu Fang left, he saw Yan Song looking at the ground casually and taking the lead in provoking the topic.

"Elder Xu Ge knows, what is the matter with Your Majesty looking for us this time?"

When Xu Jie heard this, he shook his head, and then responded.

"I don't know, I was also very surprised when I learned the news from Gonggong Lu."

Next, the two tested each other again, and only then did they relax after making sure that the other party really didn't know why the emperor was looking for him.

Then, I only heard a sharp voice sound: "Xuan, the first assistant of the cabinet Yan Song, and the second assistant of the cabinet Xu Jie!" ”

When Yan Song and Xu Jie heard this, they immediately glanced at each other, and then Yan Song stepped up the steps step by step with Xu Jie's support.

As soon as the two of them entered the Heart Cultivation Palace, they knelt on the ground, their faces full of respect.

"Weichen knocks to see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Well, get up!"

Jiajing's rather flat voice sounded, making people unable to hear any emotional fluctuations.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After Yan Song and Xu Jie got Jiajing's consent, the two got up from the ground one after another.

Then, I saw Jiajing glance at Lu Fang, who was waiting beside him, and then ordered.

"Lu Fang, take this letter to the two of them!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Lu Fang took the envelope from Jiajing's hand, then walked quickly to Yan Song and Xu Jie, and handed the letter to Yan Song.

Seeing this, Yan Song couldn't help but start to get apprehensive, and then saw Yan Song slowly and methodically open the envelope, and only after seeing the contents clearly on it did he breathe a sigh of relief.

After Yan Song had browsed the contents of the letter, he handed the letter to Xu Jie.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Jiajing's voice sounded in the ears of the two again.

"After reading the letter, do you two have anything to say?"

As soon as Jiajing's words fell, Yan Song put on an expression of self-reproach and asked Jiajing for his guilt.

"Your Majesty, this is all the fault of Wechen, Wechen, as the head of the cabinet, is ashamed of his trust in His Majesty, and he has no ......"

It's just that before Yan Song's words were finished, he was interrupted impatiently by Jiajing.

"Okay, okay, don't talk this nonsense to me, if I want to clean you up, you won't see me!"

After Jiajing finished reprimanding Yan Song, he turned his gaze to Xu Jie and asked him.

"Xu Jie, what do you want to say?"

After seeing Yan Song's fate, Xu Jie secretly said in his heart: "It seems that Your Majesty wants us to come up with corresponding solutions, only in this way can we conform to Your Majesty's wishes and not repeat the mistakes of the past." ”

Immediately afterwards, after Xu Jie finished sorting out the language in his mind, he gave his own suggestion: "Your Majesty, the top priority is to escort Pan Xian and other criminal ministers to the capital for centralized interrogation, and strive to let them confess their backstage in the court as soon as possible, so as to wipe out this group of insects!" ”

"In addition, we should also carry out a centralized inventory of the number of existing grain in the local granary in Henan, and then make a decision after confirming the actual grain storage in the granary!"

"For those people who have been forcibly requisitioned by the government, we should vigorously pacify ......"

Jiajing did not comment on these measures proposed by Xu Jie, and then withdrew his gaze from Yan Song and Xu Jie, and said unhurriedly: "I came to the two of you this time to discuss the candidate for the new governor of Henan!" ”
