"Back to Your Majesty, Weichen doesn't know." Xu Qin said with a stiff neck.

Zhu Di almost choked back without a breath, what did he say? Didn't even say I knew? Laughed straight at him.

"Okay, I'll talk to you one by one, saying, why did you beat up your subordinate Wailang Han Yi?" Zhu Di first found him for the first sin.

"Back to Your Majesty, because he owes a beating. He said, 'It is a small matter to starve the people of the Ming Dynasty, and it is a big matter for foreign envoys to eat beef', and he can no longer eat meat if he is beaten by the ministers. ”

Xu Qin's attitude was very arrogant, as if he had done something great. is waiting for Zhu Di to praise him.

"His words are inappropriate, as a superior, just reprimand him. I really can't get used to it, I can still adjust my position, why do I have to be so disrespectful? ”

Li Zhi's beard trembled. People say that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, but now the jokes of the Ministry of Rites are all resounding in Yingtianfu.

"Back to my lord, he has died of his temper before replacing the official. This person has no great wisdom in his heart, and he recognizes a foreign race as an ancestor, and I suspect that his blood is not pure, and he is a traitor of our clan, a traitor. ”

Xu Qin was impassioned, as if not killing Han Yi was not enough to make the people angry.

"Nonsense, Han Yi is indeed a little harsh in his work, but he is meticulous in his sleeves, and the three-year assessment of the Ministry of Rites is all superior. How did it get into your mouth and become a heinous one? ”

Li Zhigang really couldn't listen to his nonsense, and opened his mouth to reprimand.

"This kind of person is so flattering in a peaceful and prosperous world, if he really ascends to a high position, won't he do the thing of 'serving friends and not thinking about the people'?"

Xu Qinlanglang said that since he beat the Japanese envoy, he has thought of all the details before and after, and has already thought of a lot of rhetoric.

Here he changed Cixi's sentence 'I would rather be with friends than with domestic slaves'. It was changed to 'serve friends and not the people'.

This sentence really had an impact, making Zhu Di's face gloomy, and Li Zhigang's chest rose and fell angrily.

The key is that Han Yi himself is not angry, and what he said really can't stand up to deep scrutiny. Now the pigtails are caught by this bastard.

"The self-esteem of my Ming Dynasty? The pride of my Ming officials? My Daming son lives in the pride of Daming? Did he read the Four Books and the Five Classics and the Way of the Sages? I think it's a whisker and a horse. ”

Xu Qin really got up, and he was moved by what he said, and roared impassionedly in Wuying Palace.

"Although Han Yi did things inappropriately, he did it in accordance with the decision of the imperial court after all, do you think that the court's 'thick and thin' tribute is wrong?"

Xia Yuanji, the head of the household, stared at him and asked, This old man has a private job, and he is leading Xu Qin in the direction of opposing the tribute.

These are old bureaucrats, and they will be moved by a few impassioned words from him. They have long lost their youthful enthusiasm and are concentrating on solving problems.

Xia Yuanji asked the fundamental question. This is a stupid thing that Zhu Yuanzhang did. Treat foreign envoys with kindness, so that they can feel the grace of the Ming Dynasty.

Xu Qin has not yet reached the point of being a fool, and if he directly says that it is not right, it means that Zhu Yuanzhang is not right.

Xia Yuanji, this old thing is very yin, you can't solve it as a household secretary, you count on me?

And now the chairman is defending Zhu Yuanzhang everywhere in order to prove that he is the legitimate emperor. All of Zhu Yunwen's reforms have been changed back.

So at this time, when the policy was wrong, Zhu Di was the first to do it.

"Time has changed, the world was initially determined during the Taizu period, and internal and external troubles are why we need to stabilize these small countries, and now I have no need to have such scruples after decades of recuperation."

Xu Qin said confidently. He didn't want anything to change, he just wanted the bureaucrats to listen and solve today's problems.

Suddenly, he missed his maidservant so much, isn't it good to lie in the gentle country. After this matter, go back to make glass and make money secretly.

I don't come out again, I come to this broken palace twice in three days, I'm fed up.

"That's why you're acting so recklessly? It seems that I have saved a few dollars, but what do these small countries think of me? Once centrifugation is no longer tribute, it will not be a good thing for my Ming Dynasty after all. ”

Xia Yuanji said.

"Xia Shangshu, that's not a few dollars, I deliberately asked the principal to calculate. According to the standard supply, it will cost about 200,000 taels of silver to come and leave from this group. How many people can be fed by 200,000 taels of silver, and how many ordnance will be built? ”

Xu Qin said with a frown. Xia Yuanji was noncommittal.

"This is not counting the reward for them, Gao Yu has calculated through the envoy's letter of state, the things they brought are worth about 200,000 taels of silver, but our reward is eight to ten times."

Xu Qin said with a sneer, but Xia Yuanji was not moved at all.

"Coming to the court from all directions is not only the face of the court. What's more important is the status of the Ming Sect's dominant, you only see the difference of a million taels of silver, do you know how much it costs to fight a war? ”

Xia Yuanji said. Thick and thin can make small countries return to their hearts and make them external vassals of the Ming Dynasty. Recognize the suzerainty status of the Ming Dynasty. It's worth the money.

"Lord Xia, I yearn for 'the crown of all nations' than you. But it's not about spending money to buy it, and it's not about tightening the stomachs of my Ming people and feeding a bunch of white-eyed wolves. It also made them think that I was stupid and had a lot of money. ”

Xu Qin said that he had long expected that he would be criticized by some people in the matter of the Huitong Pavilion, so he had been prepared for a long time.

The sentence 'all nations are clothed and crowned', these scholars understand better than him what kind of prosperous era it is, and Datang has never given money to anyone.

"Don died strongly." Li Zhigang said softly. The Tang Dynasty was very strong, but in the end it was too strong and led to the collapse of the country.

"It's better than the shame of Jingkang." Xu Qin retorted strongly. The Northern Song Dynasty liked to send money to other races, and in the end the emperor himself, his wife and children sent it.

"I'm not a weak Song." Zhu Di finally spoke, and he finally followed the crooked building and joined the debate.

The discussion of the topic has long been digressed, but after all, it has come to the origin of the problem, how to deal with these foreign envoys.

"Your Majesty is so right, we are not weak Song. On the contrary, in today's world, within the universe, Da Ming is the strongest.

"We have the most elegant culture, the most beautiful costumes, the best silk, porcelain, and tea, the largest fleet, the most magnificent and majestic buildings, and the most powerful emperors in the world."

"We are so powerful and rich, they can't get the same thing anywhere else except Da Ming. So they have nowhere to go except Daming. It should be that they begged Daming to call Dad.

Why is it now a father coaxing a son? The minister is worried that after a long time, they really regard themselves as fathers, and some of us in the Ming Dynasty regard themselves as sons.

The strength of my Ming Dynasty is not given by those foreigners. It is my Ming monarchs and ministers who are exhausted, and it is my Ming people who sleep at night. How can you throw it lightly? Your Majesty, Shengmi Endou Mi Hatred! ”

Xu Qin stood up straight, and said everything in one breath with his throat, which was the line he had performed several times in private in the past two days.

At this moment, he felt that he had the potential to be a speaker, sonorous and powerful, reasonable, and perfect.

I've made sycophants like this, I don't believe I can't fool you Zhu Di?

"What should I think of as a profound opinion, isn't this your drunken nonsense that day? It's just that it's more organized. ”

Zhu Di said with a sneer.

What did Xu Qinxin say? I'm drunk and talking nonsense?

Could it be that I drank too much that day, and I said that he gave me an official position as the host and guest, and I had heard it.

"Your Majesty, whether you are drunk or sober. Those small countries have already seen the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, and they are reluctant to go anywhere else.

It is already a grace to let them come to pay tribute, and they can no longer be coaxed, and the thieves of bad children are all coaxed.

Then the Japanese envoys just coaxed too much, and they were used to being too ruthless, and they dared to rob the Korean mission and dare to shout with Wei Chen......"

Xu Qin continued.

His generous statement really touched Zhu Di's heart, the most powerful empire in the world, the most powerful emperor in the world?

He was so happy in his heart, it turned out that he was so amazing. It feels good.

What this bastard said makes sense, why was he caught by his son when he was a father? It was already a grace for the Ming to trade with them.

"Don't say it so nicely, I can let you toss, but do you guarantee that there will be no problems with the tributary ceremony? And next time they can be guaranteed to come! ”

Zhu Di is a mature politician, and he can be moved, but it can't affect his reason. All nations have to ask for face when they come to court.

"If Your Majesty can be trusted, this matter can be handled by the minister, and the minister only needs a few conditions to ensure that they will come quickly."

Xu Qin said confidently.

"How much silver do you need?" Xia Yuanji then asked.

"You don't need to pay a penny from the household department, and the lower officials can also earn a sum of money for the household department, no less than 200,000 taels."

Xu Qin said conservatively.

After he said this, Zhu Di and Xia Yuanji looked at each other, their eyes were full of disbelief, this kid has lost his mind and gone crazy.

"There is no joke in front of you." Zhu Di said calmly.

"Your Majesty, it's better to do this, you will contract all the tribute ceremonies this time to Weichen. After the work is done, the minister will pay 200,000 taels of silver to the household, and the rest of the profits and losses will be borne by himself. ”

Xu Qin swore that he planned to contract the tributary ceremony. I didn't think it would be a good deal.

Xia Yuanji almost jumped up when he heard this, and he was about to agree. Someone carried this huge black cauldron for him, it was just perfect.

Because of this, he has been worried for the past few days, and his hair has turned gray several times.

Looking at Xia Yuanji's eager eyes, Xu Qin prayed in his heart, Xia Shangshu hurriedly spoke! You promise Your Majesty nothing to say.

"Boy, although I don't give it back, but the tribute and things have to enter the palace, and you don't need to spend money on this?" Zhu Di confirmed again.

"Your Majesty, there will be no less one piece in the palace. And you don't have to spend a penny. Leave the rest to Weichen and ensure that the envoy leaves happily. I'll be happy next year. ”

Xu Qin took care of everything, and said in his heart, Your Majesty, you should quickly agree.

Xia Yuanji couldn't sit still anymore, and his hands kept rubbing. No matter what method Xu Qin has, even if it is to rob.

Anyway, it's best to take the household out of this matter quickly. He was just about to speak, but Zhu Di spoke first.

"No, 300,000 taels." Zhu Di sat on the ground and raised the price.

"Well, as Your Majesty said. Afterwards, it was returned to the household department of 300,000 taels. Xu Qin gritted his teeth and agreed.

The heart said that you could always nod your head this time.

"No, 500,000 taels." Zhu Di saw that he agreed too quickly, and raised the price again.

Xia Yuanji glanced at Zhu Di, it is estimated that he feels that this majesty seems to be a little shameless, is this what people do?

I can't ask for money, and you keep raising the price?

"As long as Your Majesty agrees to me two conditions, 500,000 will be 500,000, I admit it." Xu Qin said.

If you increase the price, I will have conditions.

"One million taels, I can promise you two conditions." Zhu Di said.

"Your Majesty's eyes are like torches, and he has reached the bottom line of the minister. You can't add any more, and this tributary will have to be contracted for three years. Xu Qin said.

"Okay, I also agreed, you can talk about two conditions." Zhu Di finally agreed hesitantly.

Xu Qinxin said that Chairman Zhu deserves to be the emperor, and he judged this matter by instinct alone, and made a lot of money.

Ji Gang listened to Xu Qin's impassioned voice, looking at Zhu Di's face and the appearance of several adults, he knew that he had wasted his efforts.

He knew that Xu Qin's sycophant had hit His Majesty's dragon buttocks, and his words reached His Majesty's heart. This level is in the past.
