I am the king of the dead

Chapter 389 Dare To Ask Your Excellency Where Are You?

"Li Yushi, let me ask you, are you afraid of Your Majesty?" Yuan Bin asked with a smile.

Li Xian thought for a long time and said: "It's not fear, it's reverence."

Xu Chengzong blinked, and asked very puzzled: "So the fear of scholars is not fear, but reverence?"

The whole side hall is full of joyful air.

Xu Chengzong's sentence is a common sentence pattern used by the emperor to tease scholars. It is to describe these scholars who are stubborn. They are obviously afraid.

"That's different!" Li Xian said very seriously.

Awe and fear can be the same!

Yuan Bin frowned and said, "Actually, it's weird that you got hit by an arrow. At that time, the arrow obviously couldn't hit you. Why did it hit you in the end?"

Xu Chengzong asked suspiciously: "That's right, what's going on? At that time, I didn't look like he would shoot Li Yushi."

A group of nine people, including Yuan Bin and Xu Chengzong.

Only Li Xian was wounded. There were five assassins in total, three were killed and two were arrested.

"I fell." Li Xian said helplessly: "I fell to avoid that arrow, but the arrow hit me."

Yuan Bin interrupted Li Xian with his hand, and said strangely: "Wait a minute, wait a moment, let me stroke it."

"You were hit by that arrow to avoid that arrow, right?"

Li Xian nodded.

The side hall was once again filled with cheerful air.

Li Xian is a bit strange, you say he is unlucky, he is really unlucky.

After serving as the local governor for so many years, he only returned to Beijing in May of the 14th year of Zhengtong, just in time for Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Officials to fall ill, and he had to follow the expedition;
After finally surviving death and returning to Daming, he went south to inspect salt, suffering, tired and offending others, and was finally caught as an official of the imperial court;

This time he was assassinated, obviously the assassin was in a hurry and unprepared, and the arrows were not accurate, so he would be fine if he hid, but in the end he was hit by an arrow.

But you say he is unlucky, he is lucky to survive every time.

How lucky is it to escape from the prisoner camp in Oara?

How dangerous is arrogance, how many people did His Majesty kill?In the end, not only did he forgive him for committing himself to serving as a thief, but he also personally reminded him of his orders.

It shouldn't have been an arrow, but he survived.

Another person would have died long ago!

But Li Xian was alive, and when he was in pain, he was full of energy, and he would get better soon.

Often in the possession of bad luck and often in the great fortune and fate, two completely opposite fates.

Is this someone who has been tricked by fate?
How many people did Yuan Bin meet during his travels?This Li Xian's unlucky energy and lucky energy are all seen in his life.

"Leave the investigation of the assassin this time to me." Yuan Bin took a deep breath and said, "Take the credit from me!"

Li Xian didn't know if it was pain, but when he heard Yuan Bin's words, his heart became frightened, his expression twisted, and he said, "Your main concern is who the assassin is, but I don't care."

"The most important thing for Wei Guogong and me right now is how to split Nanzhili. This is something His Majesty left for us. If we can't do it well, there will be no wronged souls under the prying knife."

"There is a lot of noise against the split."

The reason why Li Xian was assassinated was because some people wanted to express their determination to oppose the split of Nanzhili.

Half of the officials in the northern yamen are facing the sky, and the wind in the southern yamen is naturally not small. Recently, Li Xian has felt this wind. Shilin is not bad, because they have the banner of the imperial examination.

Shilin style was established in the imperial examination, but now it is used by His Majesty as a tool to suppress them.

For example, when the candidates in Shandong were dismissed from the examination, His Majesty directly deprived hundreds of candidates of their honors, which made Shilin a lot more honest.

Even in Nanjing, although Shihlin has the wind, it is also playing with the wind.

After all, Jingtai has to take the provincial examination in four years, and Jingtai has to take the general examination and palace examination in five years, and they put these in front of them.

However, the power of powerful merchants is getting stronger and stronger. The joint efforts of these people can easily drive the grass on the wall to the side that opposes the split.

Li Xian said very seriously: "We want to break up their joint efforts."

"Yu Niang, you go out first." Li Xian glanced at Yuniang, in fact she should have gone out just now, but Yuniang has been worried about Li Xian's injury, how can she remember these rules?

Li Xian reminded that Yuniang left the side hall full of worry.

Her official is not a real man, but he is a husband.

Li Xian sat up straight and said, "First of all, the Lianghuai salt merchants, the Liangzhe merchants, and Huizhou merchants, what are they most concerned about now? Concerned about merchant ship inspection and conformity."

The inspection and cooperation of merchant ships is the proof of Daming's legal business and trade. If there is no inspection and cooperation, it will be extremely inconvenient whether it is to purchase goods from Daming or bulk cargo in Daming.

With such a huge profit from Haimao, being bitten by someone is not a good feeling.

The Department of Shipbuilding in the Ming Dynasty is a very strict department. It started in the Tang Dynasty, prevailed in the Song and Yuan Dynasties, and almost all the mines have been stepped on in the Ming Dynasty, so the inspection and compliance of merchant ships is a very important proof.

Xu Chengzong's eyes lit up, he nodded and said: "Here, we can use the survey and compliance talisman to force them to submit! I will organize them, and if we object again, if we don't give the talisman, the merchant ship will become a private ship, waiting to be given by the battleship of the Daming Navy." Sink it!"

Li Xian shook his head and said, "No, no, no, doing this will only make them more closely united and resist His Majesty's will."

"This censorship symbol is the best grass leaf for fighting crickets."

"We put out the reconnaissance symbol little by little, and let them fight! Our purpose is to let them tear apart, and if we don't form a joint force, we will naturally break their tacit understanding."

"As far as I know, there are more than [-] three-masted merchant ships in the Lianghuai merchant ships, more than [-] three-masted ships in the Zhejiang and Zhejiang provinces, and more than [-] Huizhou merchants."

"We release [-] copies of the reconnaissance at a time, for a period of one year, and re-release next year."

"Because of this censorship talisman, they can break their heads. The world is profitable, and this censorship talisman is their lifeblood."

Li Xian looked at the two people who didn't understand, and explained with a smile: "Northeast wind in the southeast, it will end in August, and a three-masted ship is not a two-masted ship. They still want to do business. Can't enter the port."

Yuan Bin thought for a while and said, "Why three hundred copies?"

Li Xian thought for a while and said: "Because there are more than [-] three-masted ships in total, we released [-] copies, which is about [-]%, no one can feed enough, but no one is hungry."

"Fighting crickets are fed to [-]% full. If you feed too much, the fighting crickets will not move. If you feed too little, the fighting crickets will lose strength and lose. So feeding them to [-]% full is the most brave. "

"When His Majesty left, he also said that the only place where the three-masted ship is located is the Ship Department of Songjiang Prefecture. Li Binyan is there. It is not difficult to communicate with Governor Li a little bit about this matter."

Xu Chengzong blinked, and asked, "Dare to ask your Excellency who is a master?"

Of course Li Xian knew what Xu Chengzong was asking, he said with a smile: "I am a Jinshi in the seventh year of Xuande, so I naturally know a little about Qiuxing."

Xu Chengzong said with a lot of emotion: "Is this a point? In terms of tricks, you scholars still have a lot of crooked ideas! Fighting a cricket can be used in state affairs."

Li Xian continued: "We still have silver coins and Jingtai Tongbao in our hands. The current situation is different from the situation when His Majesty was here."

"Your Majesty used both civil and military skills to drain the silver taels on the ground in Nanzhili, and now they use silver coins to buy the whole batch of goods."

"Did you know? Silver coins are much more useful than silver taels. Now on the ground in Nanzhili, it's like Bao Zhimin used the Three Treasures of Fulu, and he can't stop."

Li Xian's description is very strange, but it is indeed like this.

The fineness of gold flower silver is different, and the casting standards are different in different places. Especially when it is fake, it is difficult to distinguish the real from the fake. The silver ingots are fake, with tin cores inside, and there are many people who deceive people.

Once you start to accept the use of silver coins, for those who are merchants, it is impossible to stop.

Because you only need to pick up the silver coin and blow it gently to know the authenticity. The outline article is extremely exquisite.

No matter how large the transaction is, you only need to flick it with your hand to see if it is true or false.

Since His Majesty smashed the front teeth of powerful merchants and forcibly pushed the silver coins away on the ground in Nanzhili, those who had resisted could no longer leave the silver coins.

Li Xian shook his head and said: "They usually wrap the silver coins with a red chip, wrapping each one, for fear that the silver coins will be worn out. In fact, it is completely unnecessary. Who in Beiya doesn't know that silver coins are durable?"

"Like a country bumpkin who has never seen the world."

"What's the matter? At the beginning, I resisted His Majesty's silver coin decree and insisted on touching His Majesty. I spent so many lives, so much silver and family property in vain, but now I am so sought after. This kind of arrogance Gong's appearance, oh..."

Li Xian sometimes thinks that something is wrong with Daming, why are there so many idiots?
What they did was stupid, but at the time, it was reasonable.

Down south tyrant, you let me use it?

I can't touch you?Is it you, the dragon crossing the river, or me, the tyrannical snake?Try this and die.

Li Xian said very calmly: "The same is true for our current silver coins and Jingtai Tongbao. They are accepted every month. They are accepted in Luzhou, Xuzhou, and Nanjing. They can only be accepted by their hometown."

"Nanjing can only be exchanged for Yingtianfu and Songjiangfu, Luzhou can only be exchanged for Fengyang Province, and Xuzhou can only be exchanged for Suzhou Province."

"But they are still [-]% full. If they can't starve to death, they will hang them."

"Within three years, they will recognize it by pinching their noses."

Yuan Bin looked at Li Xian's confident look and asked, "Why is this? If this drags on, will they lose their strength?"

Li Xian nodded, thought for a moment and said, "Do you know what to do when you catch something huge when fishing?"

"drag."

"Wrestling with them all the time, a catty of fish, ten catties of strength, these are giants, we drag them, dragging their strength away, and then use the net to copy it."

"This silver coin is bait, can they not bite?"

Xu Chengzong blinked and asked, "May I ask who is your Excellency?"

Li Xian said with a smile: "I am a censor of salt during the Jingtai period, so I naturally know a little bit about fishing."

Xu Chengzong said with a lot of emotion: "Disrespect and disrespect! I knew I could learn from you!"

In fact, Xu Chengzong did not make any contribution in His Majesty's hands. He stared at Sun Bingfu's release of Jingtai Tongbao in Baoyuan Bureau. .

Xu Chengzong now immediately understood that when it comes to flamboyance, he still has to look at these civil servants!
In a few words, these powerful merchants were clearly arranged, and they were dismantled.

Li Xian said with a smile: "In the end, it's Shilin. The 340 quotas for candidates in Nanzhili and the fifty quotas for Jinshi in Nanbang have not yet been divided."

"How do you divide this?"

"Of course it depends on where you are loyal. The more loyal you are, the more points you get. There's nothing wrong with that."

Yuan Bin took a deep breath, looked at Wei Guogong the same way, and asked in a low voice: "There is nothing wrong with it, how do you measure this loyalty?"

Li Xian leaned forward and said in a low voice: "Loyalty is immeasurable. Commander Yuan should be very clear about this. The word loyalty is very complicated. What exactly is loyalty? Since ancient times, there has been a clear standard." ?"

"not at all."

"It doesn't matter what you say, if you say loyalty, who knows if you just say it?"

"Your Majesty has to do a few things when he returns to Beijing. Qingtian Liding must do it. The first 20 waterways of the [-]-mile waterway must also be done. The examination method must also be implemented. This is the time to test whether you are loyal or not."

"Who can solve His Majesty's urgent needs, does it mean that he is loyal?"

Xu Chengzong blinked and asked, "May I ask who is your Excellency?"

Li Xian said with a smile: "I am a disciple of His Majesty, the governor of Jiangnan, Li Xian."

"Yu Shaobao doesn't care about his reputation, but he has an excellent reputation; Hu Shangshu cares about his reputation, but his reputation is very bad."

"Integrity is loyalty, treachery is loyalty. The two Dukes of Ming have exhausted their efforts for the advancement of Ming Dynasty, but they also have their own concerns."

"But Li Xian is gone. Li Xian first rebelled against King Jili and escaped alone, and then rebelled against His Majesty and usurped the court."

"I don't care about reputation, and I don't have any reputation at all."

"They can't kill me! They have to obey the law of the Great Ming! Live according to His Majesty's will!"

"Otherwise, these stupid pigs must die!"

Li Xian was still smiling, but Wei Guogong Xu Chengzong took a step back, this smile is really a bit creepy.

"We don't seem to have sinned against Governor Li." Yuan Bin blinked and said.

Xu Chengzong thought about it seriously, and said with a sullen smile: "Anyway, I don't have one."

As for whether Yuan Bin has one, I have to ask Yuan Bin.

"Of course Commander Yuan didn't, and I have to thank Commander Yuan for saving his life." Li Xian added hastily.

In fact, Yuan Bin's experience is very similar to Li Xian's. They were both very loyal to Ji Li Wang Zhu Qizhen.

Yuan Bin wanted to save his grandpa when King Jili went to Datong Mansion to call for the door, and Li Xian wanted to take his grandpa with him when he was disguised.

In fact, they should have died a long time ago, because His Majesty cut off the title of King Jili, and killed him in the Taimiao cleanly.

Li Xian didn't complain about Yuan Bin staring at him. On the contrary, he thought it was necessary. After all, he was the only core member who survived the Nanya Dynasty.

Although he has always been an inner ghost, it cannot be changed, the fact that he is indeed a traitor.

"You two, do you think Li's three points are useful?" Li Xian asked with a smile.

Yuan Bin said with emotion, "Be careful when you go out in the future."

"Be careful when drinking water." Xu Chengzong added, and said to Yuan Bin: "In the future, when there is thunder and rain, the two of us should not get together with him."

Yuan Bin asked suspiciously, "Why?"
