Capital.

At this moment, in the middle of a big house.

One by one, the figure is driven.

Under the dark lights, you can vaguely see the figures.

But I can't see it completely.

"Everyone, you should have heard one or two of this city-wide storm!"

An old voice rang out, and in the candlelight was his gloomy face.

"Lord Zhang, this matter is extremely strange, a few months ago, these news suddenly spread for some reason, and it quickly swept the entire two capitals and thirteen provinces, even one of my nephews in the north expressed curiosity."

With the sound of the old man's voice, someone soon spoke again.

And this person's opening also caused other voices in the room to ring.

"yes, it's very strange!"

"We've heard about it, too!"

"Overseas profits can get rich in one day, and the yield per mu is a thousand catties of food."

"It seems that some people are exaggerating the benefits of overseas, and we know that overseas is advantageous, but in the past there may be ten times more, but now it is only four or five times."

"Yes, some people are afraid of bad intentions."

The voices were mixed in, and many people in the room frowned at this moment.

As a representative of the interests of the southeast coast, he can mix to such a point, and his sharpness of thinking is simply not comparable to ordinary people.

Even if the news had just swept through, they instinctively felt a sense of crisis.

They know very well that the foundation of their life is not the current official position, but the huge interests of their family in the southeast coast, as long as they can grasp these interests, even if their official position is wrong, their own family and future generations will be able to make up for it.

But if these interests of the southeast coast are lost, then everything for them has already come to an end.

Even their current position can't be kept.

It's just that what makes them wonder is.

Who would do that.

Two hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, the entire southeast coast.

Or to be more precise, Kaihai's interests have been strictly controlled by them.

Even after a short period of opening the sea in Longqing, it could not take away their interests.

Even the entire Ming Dynasty has begun to pretend that they can't see it.

But at this moment, pretending to be invisible, someone forcibly let everyone see it.

This undoubtedly broke the original rules.

"Bump!"

"Who the hell is it?"

"Let the old man know that he has to skin him!"

The sound of anger rang out, accompanied by the sound of a teapot shattering.

And the venue fell silent in an instant.

Until a moment.

Only then did one of the figures of the tailed beast tap the bracelet lightly.

As he banged, the room fell silent.

Until all the sounds cease abruptly.

The voice spoke slowly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there aren't many things in the world that can do these things!"

"And even fewer want to do that kind of thing!"

"It's a coincidence that in this capital, there is such a person who can do it.!"

The words were soft, and the voice was not very loud, but at this moment, everyone couldn't help but tremble.

Even the figure who has just broken the teacup is no exception.

The words spoken by this figure are not very complicated, and which one of those present is not an old fox, so he naturally knows what this figure means.

There is one in the capital.

Needless to say, this one.

"This, this, Elder Ge, what are you talking about Your Majesty?"

Someone spoke with a stammer, and his expression was one of disbelief.

"This, how is this possible?"

"Your Majesty, what is this for?"

"Yes, Elder Ge, Your Majesty, what is this for?"

As one person spoke, soon the others also spoke.

In this world where imperial power is supreme, although theoretically the imperial power has been suppressed and is about to be unable to raise its head, it is only theoretical, and the nominal imperial power is still supreme.

In the face of the others, if they did this, they would probably have to kill him directly.

But when this person became the emperor, then they couldn't help but murmur in their hearts.

"Our Majesty is not a simple lord!"

The figure chuckled, but his expression showed a smile.

"Elder Ge, Your Majesty doesn't want to restart the strategy of opening the sea, right?"

It seemed that someone suddenly thought of something, and opened his mouth with a shock.

As he spoke, everyone's eyes involuntarily looked at this figure.

"I don't know!"

The figure shook his head, his expression still chuckling.

"Elder Ge, this matter is not a joke, you must not let Your Majesty open the sea!"

Someone couldn't help but speak, looking a little anxious.

If it is said that what the previous Kaihai Daming needed to bear was only the problem of the ancestral system, then there are undoubtedly huge interest groups in the Kaihai at this moment, which is also the main reason why the Longqing Kaihai could not be sustained back then.

When the majority of interests are triggered, no matter how good the policy is and how good the reform is, it will not be able to continue.

This is true of Fan Zhongyan's reform, Wang Anshi's reform is like this, and Zhang Juzheng's reform is also like this.

Opening the sea can indeed improve 99% of the problems of the Ming Dynasty, but the problem is that he will cause 100% of the problems of the current people.

Approval, support is simply impossible.

Even if there is only a hint of it, they have to press on.

In case there are any surprises.

"You don't have to worry, I don't know if our majesty will open the sea in the future!"

"Our majesty is not doing this to open the sea, at least for now!"

The figure chuckled.

In my mind, I couldn't help but think of the picture of Chongzhen summoning them a few months ago.

It was precisely because of that scene a few months ago that he was able to determine that this was done by His Majesty.

After all, it's too much of a coincidence.

If it weren't for His Majesty, no one else would have been able to do so.

As for the resistance.

Seriously, if Chongzhen wanted to open the sea, he would naturally resist.

But if he let those vassal kings leave, he naturally won't resist.

The benefits of obtaining those vassal kings were undoubtedly greater than those overseas, at least in his opinion.

With their family's strength in the southeast, as long as these vassal kings migrate, then their family can occupy at least half of the remaining interests.

As for Chongzhen's follow-up, if he wants to open the sea.

How can it be so easy to open the sea.

The opening of Longqing in that year could not continue.

Then the opening of Chongzhen at this moment is also impossible.

The seas are full of pirates.

It is also normal that the city was attacked by pirates and pirates and had to be closed.

Houjin in the north of Daming is restless, do you really need to find a little more trouble for Daming.

At that time, the income of the city company is not as good as the expenditure.

Will the suspicious Majesty of his own family still persevere?

They have experience and methods for this.
