Chapter 251: Support
This is not what Emperor Jingwen wants to hear, but it is undeniable that all this that Xie Xiuwen said is true.
The scene froze again, Xie Zuocheng, who had always listened to the emperor's dispatch the most, said all kinds of difficulties, how to get this trade?
Emperor Jingwen's own back seemed to be bent a little, and the light in his eyes dimmed a lot.
Zheng Ge Lao and others felt that Xie Xiuwen was still very knowledgeable about current affairs, and this kind of thing really couldn't just think of a beautiful picture without considering the actual difficulties.
The emperor's mood has faded a lot, but the others have not stopped there.
A young official stood up, "What Lord Xie said is extremely true, it is indeed difficult, but because there are many difficulties, will we not do it?" Can we turn a blind eye to the benefits of this trade? ”
Xie Xiuwen turned his head and glanced at the other party, he was a Jinshi from the previous session, and he was still an official from the sixth grade, if it was a small court, he was not qualified to come.
When Emperor Jingwen heard this, he thought that he could count on this newcomer to say something more, and as a result, it was like this.
Unsurprisingly, a flash of disappointment flashed in Emperor Jingwen's eyes.
Xie Xiuwen solemnly saluted and said: "Holy Lord, the opening of border trade is naturally more beneficial than disadvantageous. It's just that no matter how small this drawback is, the court cannot ignore it. In the opinion of Wechen, it is a feasible policy to open border trade, but it is not perfect at present, and it needs to be discussed one by one by the details, and a complete set of strategies can be produced before acting. ”
Emperor Jingwen's eyes lit up again, and many other old ministers glared at Xie Xiuwen in disbelief, even Wang Qinshan, who had always supported him, also flashed a touch of disapproval between his eyebrows.
"Xie Aiqing said carefully."
"Back to the saint, these days, the court has been arguing about business and trade, and Wechen didn't dare to be careless, so he went to consult Lord Xie Yu of Honglu Temple, from him, Wechen learned some customs related to the Western Regions, national conditions and so on. If you only put aside the Xiongnu, then opening commerce with the countries of the Western Regions can be said to be easy and the profits brought are far beyond the imagination of the adults. ”
Xie Xiuwen's words fell, and his eyes motioned to Xie Yu on the side to stand up and work together.
Xie Yu had already reached a consensus with Xie Xiuwen, and this was also the most meritorious thing he could do for the imperial court since he returned to Beijing.
Returning to the saint, Weichen agreed with Xie Zuocheng's words. The most important thing is that not only the benefits of silver money can be brought, but also some scarce grains, medicinal materials, etc., the saint, if you want to send an envoy to the Western Regions, Weichen is willing to go. ”
To open up commerce and trade, it is necessary to send envoys.
And the officials of Honglu Temple are naturally the most suitable.
Emperor Jingwen didn't expect that Xie Xiuwen would not only be able to come up with a more detailed plan, but also have already thought of the manpower.
"Xie Qing has this courage, which is really a blessing for me to govern the people."
In this way, it is equivalent to closing the coffin.
Emperor Jingwen praised Xie Yu so much, who would dare to say anything more?
Of course, it is not appropriate to elaborate on the specific matters at the court meeting.
Emperor Jingwen is also a supporter, so he simply asked Xie Xiuwen to make a detailed and complete excerpt and submit it for three days.
After the dispersal of the dynasty, Wang Qinshan found Xie Xiuwen.
"You are very dangerous here, do you know how many dignitaries and nobles are involved in private trade here? Even the royal family also has people who benefit from it, once the trade is opened, it is equivalent to taking the meat from their mouths, and you are not afraid that they will deal with you again? ”
"Uncle Shi, border trade, benefit the country and the people, to put it mildly, those smuggling acts, in the end, it is these dignitaries and nobles who are fat, what benefits can the people get? Besides, they only focus on replacing what is beneficial to them, and they have never considered what our Dazhi Dynasty lacks or wants, and in the long run, it is not a good thing that the powerful will become more prosperous and the people will be resentful. ”
Wang Qinshan was silent.
Xie Xiuwen said these things, how could he not know?
But what if you know?
Do you really want to deal with those relatives and nobles?
Wang Qinshan sighed, at this point, he knew that the matter of commerce and trade was imperative, and he was now extremely glad that their Wang family had not been involved in the smuggling incident, otherwise, it would be difficult to get out.
After all, smuggling is not a fair and honest thing, even if it is a royal family?
If he really stabbed in front of the emperor, the first person to be punished must be the one who took the lead in smuggling.
Therefore, even if they had a grudge against Xie Xiuwen, they didn't dare to blatantly harm him.
Now who doesn't know that Emperor Jingwen is standing behind Xie Xiuwen, if he really makes a move on Xie Xiuwen, it will be tantamount to slapping the saint in the face, how can they bear the consequences?
In fact, Xie Xiuwen also thought twice before acting.
If he had just entered the court, he would certainly not openly support Emperor Jingwen in developing border trade.
Because at that time, his position was unstable, and the saint was also fighting with several old ministers.
It's different now.
There is no doubt that the Holy One is in power.
And he, Xie Xiuwen, is now also the official body of Zheng Sipin, and not everyone can come over and step on the little shrimp.
Therefore, why wouldn't he be happy to make some achievements that were recorded in Shi Ce in his lifetime?
Xie Xiuwen is not a person who will act rashly, in fact, he has already written the excerpt on commerce, but he is not in a hurry to submit it, the purpose of which is, firstly, to continue to improve, and secondly, it is also necessary to let the Holy Lord and other ministers know that he is not a person who is in a hurry.
Three days later, Xie Xiuwen presented a thick fold, and when Emperor Jingwen saw the back, he actually applauded the case.
"Xie Aiqing, your performance is really detailed, taxes, public security, measurements, punishments, etc., are all taken into account, and I really didn't misunderstand you."
"Since the Holy Lord has ordered, Wechen must do his best, and it is better to say something on the side, but this unified measurement requires a lot of cooperation from the Honglu Temple, and Wechen can be in this excerpt, thanks to the help of Lord Xie."
Emperor Jingwen was even happier when he saw this.
Xie Xiuwen is loyal, and every time he sends down any errand, he does it quite beautifully.
The most important thing is that this person is not greedy for merit or rash, and knows what he can and cannot do, so he will push out things that require others to accumulate merit without scruples.
Such a gentleman is really rare.
"Shengshang, to carry out commerce and trade with the Western Regions, it may be smoother in the early stage, but I am afraid that after a long time, the Huns will not be able to look past it, and find a way to get a piece of the pie."
Emperor Jing Wen was also worried about this.
The Huns don't tell you anything to negotiate alliances, and what they want is basically based on the scimitar in their hands.
If you don't give it, he will rob him, and if you beat him back, he will come and harass you from time to time like a cunning wolf, so that you can't destroy it, and you have to deal with him.
It's really hateful!
