"It's good to come back, it's good to come back......"

Zhu Jianshen was in a good mood and laughed heartily: "How are the days in the wilderness?" ”

"It's okay, it's fulfilling." Li Qing smiled and nodded.

"Hmm...... After a while, I got down in the morning, and I was not in a hurry to leave, so let's have a good drink. Zhu Jianshen made no secret of his reliance on Li Qing.

Fengtian Temple, the most sacred place in the field of power, has become a place for the two monarchs and ministers to chat.

But no one in the Manchu Dynasty jumped out to say anything.

Li Qing is very annoying, but he also has a great contribution, there is too much evidence to support it, they can't speak with their conscience, and they don't dare to provoke this evil star.

Forbearance is over, after all...... Li Qingdu is at this age, and he can't be around for long, so there is no need to follow him at this juncture...... I can't get along with myself.

The two chatted for a while, until Li Qing reminded Zhu Jianshen that this was a court meeting, and then entered the process.

……

After the early dynasty, the two monarchs and ministers went out of the Fengtian Palace and went to the Qianqing Palace.

"The emperor has set up the West Investigation Factory again, right?"

"You know this, and you're pretty well informed." Zhu Jianshen nodded with a smile and said, "Since Mr. is not willing to be lonely, you might as well continue to shine for Daming." ”

Li Qing gave him a roll of his eyes and snorted, "You are quite good at business." ”

"Huh? How can this be business? Zhu Jianshen pretended to be dissatisfied, "I want to create another brilliant Ming Dynasty with Qing, Mr. obviously still has the strength to spare, and he will leave a name in history ...... his youth."

"With my current merits, it seems that I can also go down in history, right?" Li Qing quipped.

"That's right." Zhu Jian smiled deeply, "However, if you want to stay in the imperial court, you can be more colorful." ”

"You know, I don't value that." Li Qing waved his hand, "Let's talk about the West Detective Factory!" ”

Zhu Jianshen was slightly disappointed, nodded and said: "I set up the West Investigation Factory, which is also a helpless move, a few days ago there was a case in the palace court......

When he came to the Qianqing Palace, Li Qing also figured out what happened, understood that there was a reason for the incident, and the dissatisfaction in his heart was also reduced a lot.

"It's okay to set up another factory in a hurry, but ...... This is not the right way to go. Li Qing sighed, "If there is a problem in the West Factory, will you still have to set up a South Investigation Factory, or a North Investigation Factory?" ”

"That won't be." Zhu Jianshen shook his head and quoted Li Dongyang's previous statement to explain.

Li Qing couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Then have you ever thought about the harm of redundant factory guards?" ”

"This ......"

"The road is simple." Li Qing said, "No matter what, the simpler the better, there was only one Jinyi guard in Taizu's time, so don't you still do the same?" ”

Li Qing sighed: "You realize the harm of a bloated bureaucracy, but don't you realize the harm caused by a bloated factory guard?" ”

Zhu Jianshen was a little displeased: "My safety has been threatened, what else can I manage?" ”

"I didn't let you remove it now, and when you're done, you'll disband." Li Qingdao said, "The eunuch's power is too huge, and it's not a good thing, there are examples in the Han and Tang dynasties." ”

breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "It is true that the power of the eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty is far less than that of the Han and Tang Dynasties, but if you have been vigorously supporting, do you dare to guarantee that the future eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty will not reach that height?" ”

Zhu Jianshen was silent.

After a long time, he nodded and said, "Before the arrival of my Heavenly Mandate, it will be properly handled, and it will not leave hidden dangers for the successor monarch." ”

"That's the best." Li Qing's head was bowed.

Zhu Jianshen listened to persuasion, and inherited the excellent political genes of his ancestors, and even came out of the blue.

This is also the emperor who makes Li Qing very optimistic, very relieved, and very worry-free.

Even if he let it go, Li Qing still felt that Zhu Jianshen would do a good job, and after so many years, he couldn't be clearer about what kind of person Zhu Jianshen was.

This is an emperor who can be free-range!

The wine and delicacies were delivered, and the two of them chatted while eating......

"There will be great changes in Japan in the future, and the Ming court can increase trade." Li Qing put down his wine glass and said.

Zhu Jianshen mentioned the jade pot and poured it on it, and said in surprise: "How does Mr. know this?" ”

Li Qing groaned and said, "I'm in Japan." ”

"Huh?"

"The current shogunate of Kunemuromachi in Japan is weak, and the daimyo generals in various places are active, and there are many examples of the next gram......"

Li Qing briefly talked about the current situation of Japan, and said:

"Daming has been thriving for hundreds of years, with the prosperity brought by the opening of the sea, and the population brought by the introduction of new crops, but this upward development trend will one day slow down, stagnate, and even regress."

"This can't be stopped by manpower, even if the successors of the Ming Dynasty are all virtuous, they still can't be changed." Li Qing sighed lightly, "Now the population of the Ming Dynasty is the largest in all dynasties, and it continues to prosper." This is a good thing and a bad thing, because the day when the resources are not enough......"

Zhu Jian groaned deeply: "So, to draw from other places? ”

"Yes, that's the only way." Li Qing took a sip of wine and continued, "The reason why Japan was chosen is because there is political soil there, and second, it is rich in mineral resources, especially silver, which is too important to me in the Ming Dynasty, and money is always the best driving force to mobilize the people." ”

"Isn't there still a treasure bank?"

"It's different." Li Qing said categorically: "The treasure banknote has super replicability, which is also destined to have a strong sense of identity as gold and silver, and the treasure banknote has already had a credit crisis. ”

Li Qingdao: "But gold and silver are different, the flood of treasure banknotes will lead to the private use of gold and silver transactions, but the flood of gold and silver, in addition to causing prices to rise, will not be due to a currency crisis;

First, the irreproducibility of gold and silver will not make the people resist, and second, the people will not find a better currency other than gold and silver. ”

Zhu Jianshen fell into deep thought.

The people of the old Zhu family are generally not very good at the economy.

Li Qing had to say it differently: "Which official do you think the imperial court prefers to distribute a large amount of printed treasure money or a large amount of silver?" ”

"That must be real money!" Zhu Jianshen didn't think twice.

When Li Qing said this, he also felt that the recognition of money and gold and silver was more acceptable than paper money.

After all...... The essence of treasure money is paper, while gold and silver are precious metals.

Thinking about this, Zhu Jianshen not only admired Li Qing's forward-looking, but also moved Li Qing's dedication.

It turned out that Li Qing did not enjoy life, but started a new round of struggle, a more arduous struggle.

He's in his sixties...... Zhu Jianshen sighed, his eyes a little moist.

"Sir, don't run around, I'll let the others ......"

"Nope." Li Qing interrupted him, "Japan is nominally a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and it is absolutely undesirable for the imperial court to interfere in its internal affairs and cause serious panic among other vassal states. ”

Zhu Jianshen sighed: "But your body is ...... Alas, I'm afraid that you will die in a foreign land, and you won't be able to return to your roots. ”

Li Qing's contribution to Daming was so great, Zhu Jianshen didn't want to live up to him.

"I'm glad you can have this heart." Li Qing said with a smile.

Zhu Jianshen: "......"

This is the same as the context in which the elders cannot preach the younger generations.

"How long have you been there?" Zhu Jianshen asked.

"It didn't take long, but it was only half a year."

Zhu Jianshen saw that his wine glass was empty, and poured wine from the pot, "How's it going?" ”

"It's okay, one side has been divided, and there are more than a thousand armed forces." Li Qing raised his glass and drank it all, "After I go back this time, I'm going to do a big deal." ”

Zhu Jianshen was a little speechless, and he admired it again.

This seems to be bragging, but when it comes to Li Qing, it is easy to achieve, and capable people can make a great career anywhere.

However, he was even more reluctant to let Li Qing leave.

"Sir, why don't you stay, I'll find another way." Zhu Jianshen said.

Li Qing knocked on the table, "Pour wine." ”

"......" Zhu Jianshen poured him another glass, "Drink less." ”

"I'm fine." Li Qing took another sip and said with emotion: "It's still Daming's wine delicious." ”

Zhu Jian said sullenly: "It's good to drink, you still run outside." ”

Li Qing frowned: "Why are you like a little daughter-in-law?" ”

"You ......" Zhu Jianshen was furious, "Li Qing! ”

"What?"

"You, don't go too far!"

Li Qing was speechless: "It's not like you can't live without me...... Well, I learned from you. ”

He shook his head and smiled, and changed the context: "The emperor is wise and martial, I can play with you in my absence, so I naturally want to maximize my interests." ”

“…… How long will you stay this time? ”

"It won't be long, five or six days at most."

Zhu Jianshen frowned: "Is it necessary to be in such a hurry?" ”

"I've just gained a foothold over there, and I can't stay here for long." Li Qing said, "If I hadn't come back to tell you about this, I would have done it with someone by now." ”

Zhu Jianshen: "......"

"During this time, I often come to the palace to chat with me."

"Done." Li Qing agreed simply.

Zhu Jianshen's face softened, and he snorted: "This is about the same." ”

"By the way, I have a son again."

You have a son, it's my business...... Li Qing hehe: "Congratulations." ”

"Your attitude...... I don't like it. ”

Li Qing was helpless: "Then why don't I wrap you a red envelope?" ”

"You...... Heaven and Earth Monarch Teacher, Heaven and Earth Monarch Teacher, do you understand? Zhu Jianshen was satisfied with Li Qing everywhere, but he couldn't get used to his attitude, "Do you treat me as a king?" ”

"I've taken it...... Don't worry about these details! Li Qing said angrily, "I'm already very tired, can I make trouble without reason?" ”

"I'm vexatious?"

“…… It's not the right style of painting. Li Qing hurriedly said, "Let's change the topic." ”

"You change!"

“…… The supervisor of the West Factory is too young, how can you use a hairy boy? ”

Zhu Jianshen was surprised and said, "You know this? ”

"I've seen him." Li Qingdao said, "This time I'm in Fu. Jian landed on the shore and happened to meet him to handle the case. ”

"That's ......" Zhu Jianshen suddenly explained: "Wang Zhi is not very old, but he is ruthless, and I take a fancy to him. ”

Then, he asked, "Who did he do?" ”

"Yang Rong!"
