eldest son of Ming dynasty

Chapter 218
"A lot of things are intertwined. If duplication is listed as a national policy, the court must have money. If you want to have money, you have to rely on Zhejiang. To put it more bluntly, you have to rely on maritime trade."

In the Military Aircraft Department, the complexions of the four important ministers changed. They didn't expect the emperor's thoughts to be in this place.

Zhu Houzhao gave them a practical example, "As long as the merchants in the south of the Yangtze River go to sea, they are sure to make ten times the profit. There are good things in the Ming Dynasty. I went to find out. Silk, tea, porcelain... as long as they are shipped out of Daming, Prices are high."

"Your Majesty..." Han Wen was a little startled. He rarely put forward a slightly different opinion from the emperor, "I think this matter should be carefully considered. The sea ban is an ancestral system."

"I know, but if you don't rely on maritime trade, and the treasury still has silver taels, you can only expropriate them violently. Otherwise, where will the military supplies for the second set come from?"

Yang Tinghe finally understood why the emperor had not made any big moves in all these years, even though he had all the abilities, not because he didn't want to, but because he couldn't.

The second set requires powerful soldiers and horses, and powerful soldiers and horses need money. If you want to have money, you have to open the sea, but opening the sea will attract many people's opposition. If there are more voices of opposition, no matter how weak the court's troops are...

"Your Majesty, I think that the re-entry can be included in the three-year plan. It is better to delay the matter of opening the sea."

Wang Jia frowned, "But things need to be done."

Yang Tinghe smiled slightly, "Your Majesty does not have any imperial decree. Only things that are included in the plan can be done, and things that are not listed are not allowed to be done. Some things are just done but not talked about, and some things are just said and not done."

In fact, Zhejiang has already been cleaned up, and so are the officials in the court. Zhu Houzhao thought it would be fine not to include this matter, anyway, there is a high probability that it can be done.

"Okay, that's it. Now I've finished talking about the matter. Next, I'll see how to do it. Da Situ, you send a letter to Zhejiang. It seems that it will be late February, and my Shaofu Order should have arrived in Zhejiang. There should be a sound, right?"

The Korean said yes, "The minister will write to ask."

"Then let's discuss it again, how to prepare for the re-set."

"Yes, I will send you to Your Majesty."

The frequency of the emperor coming to the military aircraft these days is quite high, because he is also close to the Qianqing Palace.

But the number of visits to the cabinet is very small.

Outsiders only knew that the emperor was coming, not what the emperor said.It is said that it is all military affairs in the northwest, but now Jingying and Yang Shangyi haven't even arrived in Ningxia yet.

In addition, so far, the emperor still has not indicated that he wants to let the cabinet members enter the military aircraft department. What does this mean?
In this case, wouldn't the cabinet fail to participate in the government affairs that the emperor went to the military aircraft to discuss?

Both Li Dongyang and Xie Qian were a little anxious, and they were discussing what to do in private.

"...Your Majesty won't say anything, but he must have been angry with the cabinet for sending troops to Ningxia." Li Dongyang analyzed, "So the key to this is to find a way to dispel His Majesty's anger."

It's not that the emperor is stingy, to be reasonable is to be angry.

What is the cabinet?At first, he was the secretary who helped the emperor handle some government affairs.At this time, he was also the most valued official by the emperor.

If such an official does not support the emperor, it is equivalent to a hand that is not smooth. Shouldn't this be angry?

If they didn't move, they were saving face.

Seriously, this is a warning.

"But Mr. Liu Ge, just pretend that there is no such thing." Xie Qian had no choice, he was not the top leader of the cabinet after all, "...or, next time, we still have to take care of His Majesty..."

As soon as Li Dongyang raised his eyes, couldn't he be fascinated.Let things be as they are, how can you say things against your will for other reasons.

But this matter is really embarrassing for them. The emperor has an opinion, but Liu Ge always turns a blind eye and ignores it. If this continues, what if the emperor becomes even more angry?
Li Dongyang didn't quite understand why Liu Ge was like this, the person who tied the bell had to be untied, and Liu Jian had to break through this matter.

If it drags on for a long time, people will see that the emperor is dissatisfied with the cabinet. If someone pushes the flames from behind, maybe there will be an incident of overthrowing the cabinet.

"Let's go find Elder Liu Ge in private."

Even if they are on duty in the cabinet, they dare not talk about it now, because Liu Jian strictly forbids to talk about it in front of him.

There is no other way but to visit the mansion at night.

At the same time, Zhu Houzhao also received the memorial that he missed the most these days. The memorial was from Guizhou: Wang Shouren has already begun to give lectures with great enthusiasm!
Historically, Wang Shouren was demoted in the first year of Zhengde, and returned to the magistrate of Luling in the fourth year of Zhengde. During this period, he had the famous Longchang Enlightenment.

Now, he was demoted in the 12th year of Hongzhi, and it has been seven years since he was born. A 26-year-old young man has turned into a 33-year-old middle-aged man. How many seven years in life can be as precious as these years?

However, although seven years is a long time, the time to realize the Tao was also earlier, and he can have more time to do things. Wang Shouren is not one of those long-lived people who can live to seventy or eighty.

But how to arrange him next is also a problem.

This has to be done with caution.

Zhu Houzhao started pacing in the warm pavilion by himself, and walked back and forth many times thinking about his whereabouts, and there was still a reason.

"Your Majesty, let's eat, or it will be cold..."

"Tsk." Zhu Houzhao, as if he didn't hear what Liu Jin said, smacked his mouth and shook his head while thinking.

It is definitely not good to mention too high a position in one step. This has attracted a lot of criticism, and it is not good for Wang Shouren himself. In fact, so far, he has been the head of the Ministry of War, and then he was demoted to Longchang, Guizhou.

The official experience is actually not very rich.

However, Zhu Houzhao was a little anxious to use him. After all, such a great talent is the real pillar of the country. With him, you can pick whatever you want, and he can support it wherever you put it.

Liu Jin played tricks on Qiu Yun beside him,
Qiu Yun nodded, but she didn't say anything to the emperor, but told the maid standing next to her, "Heat all these, if it's too cold, pour it out, don't let your majesty eat cold food."

Zhu Houzhao stopped it as soon as he heard this, "Don't bother, let alone throw it away."

Qiu Yun lowered his body and saluted, "I beg Your Majesty to forgive me. This servant and His Majesty have been very careful. I want Your Majesty to eat, so I said this on purpose. Because this servant knows that Your Majesty is a benevolent and frugal king."

It doesn't matter if you use your mind, as long as you are honest enough, Zhu Houzhao doesn't care, on the contrary, being praised by these words also satisfies some vanity.

"You are the one who thinks the most." After pretending to blame Qiu Yun, he still went to get the chopsticks.

Qiu Yun stepped forward and picked up a piece of tofu, "Your Majesty, try it, is it tender?"

As soon as Zhu Houzhao took the chopsticks, he hung in mid-air and stopped, still thinking about something.

Liu Jin and Qiu Yun were helpless, the emperor was really preoccupied with government affairs, and when he opened his eyes, he was concerned with such matters, big and small.

"Let's do it like this!" Zhu Houzhao put down his chopsticks and walked out to the attendant's room, "Where's Fengxi?"

Because this guy has bad legs and feet, sometimes the emperor would come over by himself to save him trouble.

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen is here."

"Imitate the will of the Tao. Wang Hua was removed from the position of governor of Zhejiang and transferred to the post of Minister of the Ministry of War in Nanjing. The period of relegation of Wang Shouren, the post office in Longchang, Guizhou, has expired, so he was reinstated as an official and still serves as the head of the Ministry of War."

As for the situation in Zhejiang, Wang Hua couldn't do it anymore. Staying there actually became a negative factor, because he used that method at the beginning, so that officials didn't dare to associate with him, and even if he went to work elsewhere, it would be wrong. It's even easy to scare people, but don't let the emperor want to rectify it.

Therefore, he can only be placed in a semi-retired state temporarily, but he is also a person who has made great contributions to Zhu Houzhao, and rewards and punishments must be clearly defined.Otherwise, people's hearts will be cold.

Therefore, reinstatement of official Wang Shouren is actually a coup. Others will know at a glance that the emperor is sorry for Wang Hua, and this is to make up for him through his son.

For Zhu Houzhao, it solved the problem of two people at once, killing two birds with one stone!
In this way, he was able to put the piece of white and tender tofu that Qiu Yun said just now into his mouth, and praised: "It's very tender, as tender as a little girl's face."

After saying this, Qiu Yun's face turned bright red.She didn't know why the emperor had such a metaphor, was it on purpose?Still intentional?She didn't think about it in the early years, but last time she had a little discussion with the emperor...

And Liu Jin next to him was also moved after hearing this. After all, His Majesty is also 15 years old.
