Can you live forever

Chapter 233

The court was noisy, but Jiajing didn't argue with them at all.

financial?Pointing to the little money from the Ministry of Households, nothing can be done, and the money is paid out of my own money, so what is the matter with the court's finances?What, your salaries have to be changed too?

Alright, one day the court will give out three or five Hai Rui, and I will change the salary.

One by one, if you pass the exam, the people will donate their land. If you don’t do anything, you will have hundreds of thousands of acres of land for rent. If you become a Jinshi, you will have tens of thousands of acres. Do you think I don’t know?All of you, are you really honest officials?
"Retire!!"

Seeing Jiajing getting up to leave, Huang Jin announced loudly that the civil servants of the Manchu Dynasty were even more violent, but there was nothing he could do. Seeing that the heat was almost ready, Xia Yan glanced at Liang Cai, Minister of the Household Department.

Liang Cai understood and immediately signaled to his subordinates.

Immediately, Zhao Kan, the head of the household department, came out more and more, and shouted in a very loud voice: "The Holy One has no way, I ask you to resign!"

After the word fell, the audience was silent. To directly say that the emperor is immoral is equivalent to pointing his nose and scolding. Although the officials usually scold, they can only scold around corners. After all, it is illegal to directly scold the emperor.

Everyone saw Jiajing's stopped back, waiting for Longyan to be furious.

However, Jiajing just waved his hand in a disinterested manner, and said, "Yes."

He didn't turn his head back.

The people who were about to dismiss from office froze for a while, not knowing what to do. Everyone looked at Xia Yan, hoping that he would take the lead. After all, Yang Tinghe and Yang Shen took the lead in the charge at that time, shouting: "The country has been supporting scholars for 50 years. The festival of righteousness and death is today!"

However, Xia Yan didn't say anything, just turned and left with a cold face.

On the contrary, Yan Song smiled and said: "Scientists are paid by His Majesty with internal funds. I want to change the salary and get the government's finances in order. Why don't I just change it?"

"Why are you so impulsive?"

"Liang Shangshu, do you think this is the truth?"

Liang Cai said sarcastically, "Your Majesty has allowed the common people to participate in politics. The states and counties are in great chaos, and the land tax has been exempted. The summer tax will be collected in May soon. Tens of millions of shi are short of grain. I don't know where to find it."

"financial?"

"How about if the old man resigned from the household secretary and handed over to Mr. Yan Ge?"

Yan Song smiled and said: "Okay, Liang Shangshu, please submit the paper, the old man will sign it immediately, and send it to the Supervisor of Rites for approval."

"you!!"

Liang Cai waved his sleeves angrily, and many officials also felt that Yan Song was arrogant and eccentric, and because Jiajing forced Li Shi to sign the three edicts, Jiajing lost the support of the civil servants in the middle.

Originally, Xu Zan, Minister of Rites, and Liang Cai, Minister of Hubu, were centrists who followed Li Shi.

When Li Shi retired and returned to his hometown, they merged with Jiangnan directly.

That's why Xia Yan and Liang Cai had the cooperation just now. However, Jiajing ignored them at all, and he was sure that Xia Yan would not dare to resign collectively, because Jiajing dared to agree if they dared.

Although the School of Mathematics and Physics is not successful, it has also cultivated a group of talents.

Jiajing only needs to keep the center from being paralyzed. As for the place, the emperor ordered not to leave the capital?Then you take the place, I will take the army and the people and fight back!

……

Xiafu.

Liang Cai, Xu Zan, Mao Bowen, and Wang Tingxiang gathered together, and Liang Zhi asked Xia Yan, "Why didn't Mr. Xia Ge stand up?"

Xia Yan drank tea and said: "In the world, the best state is to have me in you and you in me. Once the separation is clear..."

Xia Yan leaned forward, looked at Liang Cai and said, "You don't really think you are an upright official, do you?"

Liang Cai seemed to have been trampled on his tail, and said angrily: "What is the meaning of Mr. Xia Ge!"

Xia Yan leaned back, and the old god said: "It's been a long time since the sheepskin was approved, don't really think that you are a sheep, you are a wolf, you eat mutton and drink sheep's blood."

"Sheep are cowardly, but they are plentiful."

"When the public is angry, the wolf will be trampled to death by the sheep."

"Jiajing is now on the side of the common people. We are really cutting off Jiajing. Without the legal principles of the court, are you going to be decapitated by those knights at night, or are you going to be hanged by those peasants?"

"If you don't want to, then you have to fight for legal principles, you have to...rebel."

"Do you have soldiers?"

Liang Cai blushed, and said, "If we don't rebel, we'll still have a good life if we go on like this? Can Jiajing let us all go? I don't have soldiers, but you don't? Where are the soldiers in Nanjing?"

Xia Yan asked: "In what name are you rebelling?"

Liang Cai said directly: "King Chu, King Xiang, and King Hui, just grab any of them, and use Jiajing to bring disaster to the country. Just send troops to Jingnan!"

"Ha ha……"

Xia Yan smiled and said, "You know, you want to fight the Zhu family's banner."

"Jiajing is a disaster for the country?"

"late!"

"Since the southern tour, Jiajing's virtuous name has spread. Before the people suffered from Jiajing's new policy, they absolutely supported and believed in Jiajing."

"At this time, you rebelled in the name of the feudal lord, do you really think that Jiajing has no power to fight back?"

Liang Cai held back his anger and said, "This doesn't work, and that doesn't work either, so can't we just wait until we die?"

Xia Yan stroked the tea with the lid of the cup, and said slowly: "When doing things, we must plan before we act. We are afraid of Da Ming's legal principles, so we must avoid the legal principles."

"It is not acceptable for a vassal king to rebel, let alone a civil uprising."

"but."

"What about foreign invasions? Barbarians, it doesn't matter whether you are legal or not."

Liang Cai was stunned for a moment, and asked, "You mean...Annan?"

Because the army of the Southern Expedition had already set off, counting the time, they had almost reached Annan, so Liang Cai thought that Nanjing was preparing to fight Jiajing in Annan.

Xia Yan paused, and said: "Give you a million elite soldiers, can you fight from Annan to the capital? When Annan sends troops, he must go to Huguang first, and Jiajing will watch the enemy cross the Yangtze River?"

"At that time, the whole Jiangnan will be smashed!"

"Fortunately, you are still from Nanjing."

"Use your brain, can this battle be fought in the south? The real battlefield will always be in the north! Only when the barbarians from the north enter the pass can they directly approach the capital and destroy Ming Dynasty!"

"Once the capital is destroyed, we only need to go south, under the banner of Nanming, and then we can support whoever we want to become emperor."

"At that time, just learn from the Southern Song Dynasty."

"Those who dare to speak out about the Northern Expedition, beheaded."

When Liang Cai thought about it, he felt that this was really the best ending. They didn't need the entire Ming Dynasty at all. Instead, the situation in the Song Dynasty was the most beneficial to them.

They are truly free only when there are "powerful countries" staring at them outside.

Thinking of the Southern Song Dynasty, Liang Cai was a little excited. Since Jiajing was tearing up his face and wanted to kill the entire gentry class, they no longer kept it. Without the hypocrisy of the past, Liang Cai only felt happy.

He actively asked: "We have to bribe Xuanda's frontier army first, and then encourage Mongolia to send troops?"

Xia Yan smiled and said: "The head of the household department who resigned today should be Liang Shangshu's confidant. We have always treated our own people well. Although he resigned from the household department, he can also take the title of servant , as an envoy to Tatar."

Xia Yan was not excited.

Because, the Jiajing Japanese Rebellion is a cover, and the Mongolian invaders will also be a cover. The real killer move...is Jianzhou.
