Chapter 166 Disposing of Kechen

Zhang Siwei did not answer Zhang Sijiao's question, but at this moment he only stared at the chief assistant mansion where Zhang Juzheng lived, and said:

"While riding on the shoulders of the Forbidden City, you can live in an official residence with the highest steps. How complacent must it be?"

"Brother will do the same sooner or later!"

Zhang Si taught.

Zhang Siwei's face darkened: "Then we have to abolish the Privy Council first!"

Then, Zhang Siwei went on to say: "I just don't know if all this is the emperor's will, and he, Zhang Juzhengming, is a powerful minister, but he is actually suppressing all officials for the emperor?!"

"Because no one is really willing to let the emperor really become stronger again!"

Zhang Sijiao said: "Isn't it because you don't want the big Japanese riots and the Gengxu Incident to happen again?"

"Heh, what does the Japanese Rebellion and the Gengxu Revolution matter to us big families?!"

"Even if the country is subjugated, it is nothing more than changing the surname of Yi. No matter which family is in charge of this world, it must be governed by the scholar-bureaucrats."

What Zhang Siwei said in front of his younger brother Zhang Sijiao was relatively straightforward, and because he was outside, he could see clearly whether anyone was approaching, so he was even more unscrupulous, and then said:

"However, it's hard to say, people like Zhang Jiangling, Fang Jiayu, and Wang Yangcheng may have really believed the words in "Zuo Zhuan"."

"Then brother doesn't need to think too much."

"Regardless of whether it was ordered by the emperor or not, Jiangling really cannot be allowed to continue to be in power now. Even if it really belongs to the emperor's will, it can only be seen clearly after the Zhang is turned down. The empress dowager is behind it. Either the Son of Heaven himself, or Dagu, the Supervisor of Rituals."

Zhang Si taught.

Zhang Siwei nodded: "You're right, but if you turn Zhang down, you have to make him notorious first, and all the village women and children know his evil!"

Then, Zhang Siwei said to his younger brother: "After you return to Yangzhou, remember what you saw today, and remember to pay someone to spread the story, and say that even the dignified privy envoys are running dogs for the Zhang family, and the military aircraft is not important." Play the Son of Heaven first and Jiangling first, whether this world belongs to the Zhang family or the Zhu family."

Since Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty requested from Ye Qi, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, to change the Naliang Kaizhong to the Nayin Kaizhong, a large number of salt merchants began to move inland.

Because salt merchants no longer need to set up commercial settlements in border towns, so that they can produce food nearby, and in exchange for salt, and then go south to exchange salt, but directly move inland to the salt-producing Yangzhou area, and receive silver in exchange for salt in the household department. After the introduction, you can directly change the salt in Yangzhou.

As a result, Zhang Siwei's family began to move inland a long time ago. The house of his younger brother Zhang Sijiao had already moved to Yangzhou first, and became a big salt merchant in Yangzhou.

……

"Many people will have to be kept in the future."

Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Yijun looked at the screen full of names and surnames in front of him, and said something to himself.

He already knew what happened in the Privy Council, and he was also aware of Fang Fengshi being stopped by Gu Xiancheng, Li Sancai, and Wei Yunzhong.

Jin Yiwei's spies and secret agents have already told him everything these people said.

Again, the financial and taxation reforms of the Wanli New Deal gave the emperor Zhu Yijun enough funds to strengthen Jinyiwei's intelligence work.

Because of this, Zhu Yijun knew more things.

Even if he is still living in the deep palace.

The reality is like this, everything has to be built on the basis of economics, when the money is sufficient, Jin Yiwei will naturally take things more seriously.

The morals of loyalty and righteousness can only be things that people are more willing to choose after the economy is guaranteed.

The same is true for Jin Yiwei.

Compared with the bribes secretly given by dignitaries and gentry, the emperor's money is naturally cleaner and safer, and they are naturally more willing to use the emperor's money to do things for the emperor.

But if the emperor doesn't give enough money, they can only work for the powerful officials and gentry in order to live, and there is a bottom line for whether they can help assassinate the emperor.

Because of this, Zhu Yijun also saw more deeply why the two capitals of the Ming Dynasty quickly fell to the fall of the two capitals in less than 30 years after Wanli, and Heshan was finally established as a slave.

From Zhu Yijun's point of view, it can be said that the Ming Dynasty Hall at this time has already shown signs of the future ending.

And here, his choice as the emperor will play a very decisive role.

That's why Zhu Yijun wanted to keep some people more and more from the bottom of his heart, not just emotional impulse.

After Zhu Yijun glanced at the screen and said this to himself, Zhang Hong came and asked him to get on the chariot and go to Wenhua Hall.

Zhu Yijun started to get on the chariot, and came to Wenhua Hall.

It is now April of the eighth year of Wanli.

The fragrance in the world is about to end, the whole world is becoming more and more green, and the scorching sun is gradually heating up.

At this time, Zhu Yijun squinted at the dazzling early morning sun, sat on the throne of the Wenhua Palace, and began to listen to the lecture.

The civil servant who was speaking and reading could not see the slightest sullen or secret joy from his face.

Zhu Yijun himself glanced at Zhang Siwei, Ma Ziqiang, Shen Shixing who were standing beside Zhang Juzheng, and even Yu Youding, Wang Jiaping, and Shen Yiguan.

After reading the narration, when Zhu Yijun announced to see Zhang Juzheng alone, he opened his mouth to Zhang Juzheng and said: "Xie Jie sealed the imperial edict during the matter, so it's fine to dismiss him, let's move out, to show my tolerance, and we can't do it because of it." If the officials are banned and refuted according to the system, they will be severely punished, and there is a suspicion that the officials will not be able to speak out."

Zhang Juzheng became overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty's benevolence can chase after Yao and Shun! The late emperor has a spirit in heaven, so he should be gratified!"

Zhu Yijun just smiled lightly, and he knew that Zhang Juzheng would be happy because he said so.

Because, this gentleman, I would rather be reviled and misunderstood by others in the future, and I would also like to give the king to Yao and Shun, and let the father of the king be the son of benevolence and virtue.

In essence, Zhang Juzheng was also a civil official and scholar-bureaucrat, and the ideals he insisted on were just the ideals of a traditional Confucian scholar.

"But Xie Jie doesn't know whether it's stupid, pedantic, or scheming;"

"If it's the former, he's naturally not suitable to be a parent, and he's easy to be manipulated by subordinate staff;"

"If it's the latter, it's not a pity to kill him! It's just that there must be a reason for killing him, so even so, he can't be killed now; but if he is really this kind of person, if he is sent out to be an official, I am afraid that he will enrich himself. Double harvest, but it is the people under his rule who suffer."

Zhu Yijun spoke again at this moment.

Zhang Juzheng was taken aback again after hearing this.

Wang Jiaping, who was paying attention to daily life, was also taken aback.

At this moment, Zhang Juzheng had no choice but to ask: "Then how will he move out, please tell your Majesty clearly!"

"As you all know, I have always pretended to be Kyushu Wanfang in my heart, not just Gyeonggi or just the north and south!"

"And I heard that there is an island in the east of Fujian called Dongfan, which has been the territory of our Han family since ancient times, so I thought it would not be enough to set up a Penghu inspection department there. We should set up a mansion and call it Dongpeng Mansion , set up a Dongxingquan military equipment road, and strengthen management."

"Let this brave man Xie Jie be the prefect of Dongpeng Prefecture."

Zhu Yijun spoke at this time.

Wang Jiaping couldn't help being surprised when he heard this, and looked at Zhang Juzheng.

Zhang Juzheng was also taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty! There are many Han people in Dongfan Island, and even the Han people are mostly outlaws in the local area, and there are even wild beasts and vicious dragons. Besides, there are many dangers at sea. A civil servant who has no power to restrain a chicken, is no better than a navy master and is not afraid of wind and waves, let him manage Dongfan, I'm afraid it will be difficult!"

"People are born out of experience. This is a chance for me to let me see if he is just stupid or treacherous."

"No matter what the result is, as long as he has a good experience, it is a good thing for him personally, and it is also a good thing for the court. I will not tolerate him because of his recklessness, and I will use him."

Zhu Yijun turned back at this time, and said again: "Could it be that Mr. is relieved to let the people of the inland prefecture be the capital of his experience, so that the people of the prefecture may be harmed by him?"

"Our system reform is not only to enrich the country and strengthen the military, but also to benefit the people. We must consider the feelings of the people."

"It can't be because we are worried that he will not be an official and will harm the people of one side, so we should not implement benevolent government and break the rule that officials should be banned according to the system and should not be severely punished?"

"Is that what you want, sir?"

"Besides, he, Xie Jie, is a student of the Son of Heaven and a Jinshi, and he dares to speak out. I can't just abandon him like this."

"My own subjects, as the father-in-law, I should save it or have to save it."

"In any case, it is better to let him experience the outlaws and barbarians in Dongfan Island than to experience the people who pay taxes and farm in the inland. If something happens, there will be a civil uprising, and it will not cause too much disaster. .”

After hearing this, Zhang Juzheng hurriedly said that he complied with the order, but didn't say anything more.

After all, the emperor wants to train his ministers, so it is really not good for him to prevent the emperor from training and block people's chances of progress.

Even if he knew that Xie Jie had escaped death, the emperor was killing people in disguise.

But he couldn't come up with any legitimate reasons to excuse Xie Jie.

What's more, he himself doesn't like Xie Jie, which is also good for deterring those who oppose reform, and it is good for them, the ruling ministers, to carry out reform.

Therefore, Zhang Juzheng could only follow Zhu Yijun's conspiracy.

Zhu Yijun knew that Zhang Juzheng, as a civil servant, would still show some sympathy for civil servants who did things within the rules. For example, even in history, even if he opposed his seduction, he did not demote these people too far.

For example, in history, Zou Yuanbiao was only exiled to Guizhou, which had already been developed in this era and had a chief secretary, but not the less barbaric Guizhou.

Liu Tai was only exiled to Liaodong.

Wu Zhongxing and Zhao Yongxian were only dismissed from office in history and were not exiled.

But Zhu Yijun is different. He would rather not show affection, but also put these civil officials who opposed the New Deal far away, and let them create some value for opening up wasteland.

After all, the effect of literati and bureaucrats on land reclamation is indeed much better than that of ordinary people.

There are so many people going to sea along the coast of Fujian, but as a result, few people have established any kind of political power in a hundred years, and they have been slaughtered time and time again by the Western Yi who came from the ocean.
