Volume 2 A River in Spring and a River in Green Chapter 25 The Wind Rises (7)

When he reached the main entrance of the Qiande Palace, the sedan chair slowly stopped, and then a majestic man with a height of eight feet and wide arms seemed to be able to race a horse slowly walked out of the sedan chair, first glanced around, and then slowly walked forward.

A small half of the people present have not seen this Shangzhu country, at this moment, just by virtue of the figure and appearance, half of them were impressed, and the other half was also convinced by that extraordinary bearing, and the timid ones were afraid that they didn't even dare to breathe, and they really deserved the four words of the world's hero.

"Elder Ren Ge, don't come here if you don't see you for a few years!"

"Zhuguo is really the first noble person in my Great Qin, he is an official in the same dynasty, and he can not see him for several years, and you are the only one in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty!" Ren Xian'an quipped.

Zhao Chun shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Pavilion Lao Mo wants to make fun of me anymore, the old man who suffers from the border is also unbearable, why don't you want to go back to this imperial capital to enjoy the blessings!"

"Hey, Zhu Guo will never be able to enjoy Qingfu, if you enjoy Qingfu, how will I wait for the old guy to enjoy it in the future?"

"It looks like I've worked hard all my life!"

"Haha!"

Just when the two first-class officials were talking and laughing, Ren Xian'an did not forget to introduce some backward officials around him to Shangzhu State one by one, except for the emperor, Zhao Chun could not give face to anyone, but he was the only one Ren Xian'an had to give, and any entanglement between the two was not known to outsiders.

Just when everyone was in harmony, another four-person sedan chair led by the leading eunuch, and slowly came to the main gate of the Qiande Palace.

"The old man is unwell today, and he wanted to rest at home for a day, but when he heard that Zhuguo would come today, as long as he still has a breath, he will come to discuss with Zhuguo, and he didn't go to visit, and I hope that Zhuguo will not be blamed!"

Although Ping Guogong has always been humble, he has never heard of anyone doing this, and the old bureaucrats present couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, "What tricks does this old fox play?"

"Ping Guogong still doesn't want to torture me, even if he visits, he should go down to visit!"

Without waiting for everyone to continue to greet each other, the door of the Qiande Hall slowly opened, and the young eunuch Feng Buji shouted: "Go to the court!"

As usual, the hundred officials should line up according to the size of the official rank, and enter in turn, so it is naturally Ren Xian'an and Li Cheng'an who bear the brunt, and the fact is also the same, between Ren Xian'an and Li Cheng'an, it is like fire and water, since there is no hypocritical humility, Ren Xian'an will not hesitate to walk in the forefront of the hundred officials almost every time in the early dynasty, maybe people are older, and they don't like to care about anything, and they are not as prominent as other high-ranking officials。

But today, due to the arrival of Zhao Chun, the atmosphere can't help but become a little subtle, Pingguo Fair Day is that kind of style, at this moment is naturally happy to watch a good show, who knows that today's Ren Xian'an, as if there is no longer the meanness of the past, as if he has changed a person, first smiled at Zhao Chun, and then said: "Zhuguo, please!"

Although Zhao Chun said that he couldn't go to the court a few times in ten years, the rules were still clear, and then he said: "It's not proper, it's not proper, Ren Ge Lao is the head of the dynasty, the bull's ear of a hundred officials, how dare I go beyond it?"

"Appropriate, proper, you Zhuguo, for my Daqin town to guard the southwest for twenty years, how can such a credit not be made, and Zhuguo has not been in Beijing for several years, compared with us, it is half a guest, plus you and I are both ministers of the first grade, how can you not make it?"

Although the other party said so, Zhao Chun still refused, people lift people and rise boats, but sometimes it is an abyss, although Zhao Chun is not afraid, but he doesn't want to cause trouble for no reason, but he can't stand Ren Xian Ande to persuade him in every way, sometimes the scholar's business is angry, but it is far from being comparable to a martial artist, Zhao Chun has already been taught, and he can't shirk it, Zhao Chun is no longer hypocritical, and he is dressed properly, so he walked straight to the hall with his head held high.

Because the Qiande Hall is built very deeply, even the 9981 longevity lamps are lit in the daytime, the whole hall is supported by 18 coiled dragon pillars, the top of the hall body is all carved beams and paintings, everywhere shows the extraordinary being the 95 supreme and the royal family.

After the main hall was full of ministers, Emperor Li Juncai of Qin slowly walked out of a huge screen behind the dragon chair, with a serious face, with a momentum of looking at the world, making people dare not look at him.

After the ministers met with His Majesty their Emperor, Li Jun glanced at the ministers, and then fixed his eyes on Zhao Chun's body, speechless for a while, although Zhao Chun said that he could not look at him, but he used his afterglow to look at the emperor he had not seen in the past four years.

The face is no longer the youthful appearance in memory, even the high-spirited demeanor when he entered Beijing a few years ago has disappeared, replaced by a kind of calmness, a kind of domineering in the world under my control, but the years have also left traces on his face mercilessly, and the sideburns are gradually growing.

After half a ring, Li Jun laughed and said: "All the heroes of the world are in my place, why be afraid of the wilderness?"

"Congratulations to Your Majesty. ”

Li Jun laughed twice more when he heard this, and said: "There are three things to discuss in the early court today, and the rest are not discussed, the first thing is that the widowed Jiangnan Provincial Inspector Imperial History has found out that a large number of merchant families have serious tax evasion and tax evasion, I don't know what to do?"

The ministers looked at each other when they heard this, but they were silent for a while, Li Jun couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "If that's the case, the widow will deal with it on his own." ”

As soon as the words fell, Yang Pu took the lead and said: "Jiangnan Province is the foundation of my dynasty, and it may backfire if it is suppressed too much. ”

The best candidate in Li Jun's heart is not Yangpu, but someone else, but now that he has stood up, Li Jun is not easy to refuse, so he said: "Since this is the case, then entrust it to Aiqing, this second thing is that our dynasty and Nanzhao exchange commercial markets, and now that the treasury is barren, I plan to put this border commercial market in the hands of the imperial court, I don't know what Aiqing wants?"

Yang Pu couldn't help but jump and jump when he heard this, this pile, one by one, is undoubtedly not aimed at the wealthy families of Jiangnan Province, if it is really in the hands of the imperial court, it is undoubtedly an arm with them, but Yang Pu has just taken over the big package, and now it is naturally not good to speak again, so he turned his head to look at the Tianguan Wei Kaiyang, who was also from Jiangnan Province, and after the official was still in the hands of the Ministry of Justice, he also walked out of the train and said slowly.

"Your Majesty, there are many businessmen and people in our dynasty who rely on this business to make a living, and when the trade road is closed due to the war between the two countries, it will cause the people's resentment to boil.

Tianguan Wei Kaiyang is worthy of being the champion, what he said is reasonable, and there is no meaning in his words to protect some people, all for the sake of the people, but if you know some details, you will know that nearly seventy percent of the shipments of Nanzhao Business Road are controlled by the major wealthy families in Jiangnan Province, and the remaining thirty percent is composed of ordinary people and some small businessmen, but this is also a back road deliberately set aside by the major wealthy families after discussion, otherwise with their financial resources and manpower, it is no problem to swallow ten out of ten.

Li Junjin has such determination, he naturally knows better than anyone else about the doorways and doors, but the words of this heavenly official are still impeccable, and the most hateful thing is this kind of half-truth, the thing is true, but the heart is false, Zhaoyun, Nanxi two counties have relied on the business road to Nanxi since ancient times to eat, not to mention tens of thousands, just like the Ganjiang River Basin, there are nearly a million workers who rely on the river to eat.

At that time, trade was prohibited, and the two counties were really in trouble for a while, but as Wei Kaiyang said, most people still know the general situation after all, but now Li Junruo is still like this, how should those people who rely on business to eat be good?

As for Li Junfei's desire to change the business road into a commercial market, and control it in his own hands, he is not simply trying to suppress the major wealthy clans in Jiangnan Province, according to the reliable intelligence of the Inspectorate's Office, in the past ten years, the iron and stone flowing from Daqin to Nanzhao, the good horses of Xiyue, and the fire oil are simply countless, and the amount is outrageous, these are the materials that the imperial court prohibits from flowing out, and catching one is the Zhulian Nine Clans, but it still can't stop some people's desire for profit.

And who dares to say that there are no people with ulterior motives in this? The equipment advantage of the Ben and Nanzhao armies has also become smaller and smaller over the years, and if a war starts, I don't know how many soldiers' lives will be used to fill it, so no matter what, Li Jun has made up his mind to control the commercial market in his own hands.

Then he said in a deep voice: "I don't care about anything else, but the Shang City must be supervised by the imperial court, and the private traffickers will be connected to the nine clans! You go down and think of a way, and then draw up a charter for me to get the best of both worlds." ”

After saying that, he continued undoubtedly: "Now Anxia is eyeing the tiger, and in the past two years, he has quietly hoarded tens of thousands of troops on the border, and the ambition of the wolf is known to passers-by, so I can't wait for it." ”

At this time, Ping Guogong stood up and said: "We should strengthen the construction of the city defense as soon as possible, and send more skilled craftsmen to the past, if it is according to what the old minister thought in his early years, it would be great if he could repair another city between Fucheng and Mistletoe." ”

"What Ping Guogong said is exactly what the widow thinks, but it is not realistic to build a Xiongcheng worth 100,000 soldiers at the moment. ”

Then he turned his head to Jiang Weidao, the governor of the Weapons Supervisor: "Is the 30,000 iron armor equipment that the widow asked you to prepare a year ago ready?"

"Back to Your Majesty, it's all ready!"
