I'm really not doing business
Chapter 474: Your Majesty gave too much
Chapter 474: Your Majesty gave too much
At the beginning of the New Year in the tenth year of Wanli, the Ming Emperor still supported the New Deal, and for the sake of the New Deal and some money, he almost restored the ancestral law of the Yongle period. He wanted to completely take away the huge profits from sea trade by completely establishing official ships and official trade!
Fortunately, this rebellious approach was stopped by the Kedao Yanguan who was loyal to the emperor and the country. All people with lofty ideals spoke out and remonstrated. In the end, the emperor was clearly aware of the harm of this kind of decree to maritime trade and withdrew his order. And make maritime trade more free.
This was a great victory for Kedao Yanguan. While everyone was celebrating this victory, the Ming Dynasty changed the ship's name and began to implement it in the five major shipping companies.
On the 16th day of the first lunar month, Pan Jixun, the left minister of the Tiangong Department, the governor of the Ming Dynasty, was waiting in front of the Nine Dragon Wall, waiting for the Ming Emperor's announcement. He stood in front of the imperial center, and he was qualified to sit in the Wenhua Hall with dignity. , as the Ming Gong of the empire.
But he did not stay here, but chose to go to Suiyuan. Hetao was the land recovered by the Ming Dynasty.
Pan Jixun can still regret at this time. His Majesty recruited him back to Beijing this time to report on his duties. If Pan Jixun regrets at this time, everyone can understand that at the center of the empire, he studied hard for more than ten years in a humble window, and once he was named on the gold list, he stumbled for decades. , finally qualified to step here.
Wenhua Hall is the long-cherished wish of all scholars.
The spring wind made people feel a bit bit cold, and it blew Pan Jixun's court clothes rustling. Pan Jixun had a tall frame, but was very thin, his cheeks were somewhat sunken, and his eyes were like torches.
He will not go back on his word. He wants to go to Suiyuan, to control the Hetao, and to control the Loess Plateau. Having served as the governor of the river for a long time, he is very aware of the harm caused by the Yellow River.
Every time the dragon of the Yellow River sways its tail, it will bring devastating disaster to the North China Plain. Every time its banks burst, large tracts of land will be saline and alkaline. Towns will be submerged, people will be displaced, and plagues will soon spread. , people died on the roadside, Pan Jixun saw it again and again. In the past, there was no chance to cure it, but now, the opportunity was placed in front of him.
Pan Jixun sat in the Wenhua Hall for court discussion, and then he realized that he was not going to Suiyuan alone, but had brought the emperor's imperial edict to act cheaply. In addition, there were 11 million silver earmarked for Datong, Sheng In addition to the mining of Tongshan and Silver Mountain in the coal mines of Zhouzhou and Womagang, and the movement of 76,000 troops and guards from three sides to the Hetao, there is also the matter of tax exemption for three years.
The hell mode suddenly changed into the easy mode, leaving Pan Jixun in a trance.
Pan Jixun bowed five times and kowtowed three times, bowed solemnly, and said in a submissive voice: "Your Majesty, Pan Jixun, pays homage to you. Long live your Majesty, long live your Majesty."
What's the use of talking so much nonsense? Just look at the actual performance.
Pan Jixun is the kind of minister who works hard. If the governor can't rub a little sand out of his eyes, all kinds of weird things are likely to happen in that place. Thunderous methods are inevitable. Pan Jixun does not lack this kind of decisiveness. Zhu Yijun just reminded that firmness and softness cannot be combined. Economic.
In other words, after the Beijing camp left, all the affairs in Suiyuan were handled by Pan Jixun. Suiyuan was a very special place. Hu and Han lived together. After being abandoned during the Tianshun period, it was only returned to the Ming Dynasty decades later. He did not have enough power. , Pan Jixun couldn't do anything.
At that time, Zhu Yijun asked how to tie up the Zhuolong, and Pan Jixun asked, "Can we talk about this complex problem? We can't talk about it. Confining water and flushing sand can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause." Zhu Yijun said to Pan Jixun at that time, "We can talk about it, but we can do complex tricks." Gave a clear answer.
The reason why so much silver is needed is for the development of Suiyuan Chi Road. When the silver reaches Suiyuan, merchants will carry goods there. Silver is a general equivalent and can promote the circulation of goods, just like the imperial court's in-kind payment of border army salaries. Logic, just a variant of the method of opening the middle.
It was not until the forty-seventh year of Wanli that Emperor Wanli, who had reached the end of his life, remembered Pan Jixun's arrival when the Yellow River flooded again, and ordered an official burial, but still did not give him a posthumous title.
"I sincerely obey your Majesty's instructions." Pan Jixun bowed his head again and thanked the emperor for his reminder.
The governor has greater power than the governor, and is the real local leader. The governor is generally recommended by the six ministers or assistant ministers. The governor and the general army are both controlled by the governor. The additional officials are different from the governor's left and right deputy censors, who are generally the left and right governors. Yushi or Shangshu, so he is also called: the most important person in Wen Shuai.
Zhu Yijun always thought that Pan Jixun had the reputation of the Quanchu Guild Hall, but later he found out that he did not.
"I will live up to the emperor's favor." Pan Jixun did not say so many nice words, but made a promise to live up to the emperor's favor.
With this amount of money, if Pan Jixun wanted to, with his power and skills, he could actually get more than 100 million points. Zhu Yijun gave so much, which also gave Tan Mo redundancy. Of course, Zhu Yijun believed in Pan Jixun's character, but sometimes, when he wanted to do something, It’s absolutely impossible to have no money, and even if you don’t have rice in your hand, you won’t be able to do anything.
"I thank your Majesty for your kindness." Pan Jixun saluted again and accepted the seal ribbon sent by Feng Bao.
"Yuan Fu once said that a gentleman should learn from physical practice and advocate realism. Only by sincere deeds and no empty talk can he achieve great results."
"My dear, this new restoration of Suiyuan is indistinguishable from opening up. Naturally, there are all kinds of monsters and ghosts at work, which must be attacked and destroyed with thunderous means. But there are also gentle means, and a combination of hardness and softness, so that we can overcome them and achieve peace. For national use." Zhu Yijun reminded Pan Jixun of his way of doing things.
"Governor Xuanyingtian Pan Jixun pays homage." The voice of Heavenly Language came from the small yellow gate. Pan Jixun climbed up the stairs and walked into the Wenhua Hall under the inspection of Tishuai.
There is a special name for people like Pan Jixun, Chun Chen, who is very pure and just wants to manage the Yellow River well.
Shao Sikong is the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Industry. He is the Ming Gong. He can do what he wants. In the capital, he can also control the floods of the Yellow River.
Emperor Ming once again kept his promise and fulfilled his original promise.
There are many books placed in the window of the side hall of Wenhua Palace, which are the outlines of Wanli's New Deal.
After becoming an official, Pan Jixun suffered from rheumatism and hemiplegia not long after leaving the capital. He died of illness in Wucheng County, Huzhou in the 23rd year of Wanli. However, because Pan Jixun was a descendant of Zhang Juzheng, Emperor Wanli did not even give Pan Jixun a posthumous title, official burial, or promotion. , Enyin, none!
"Is there anything missing?" Zhu Yijun looked at Pan Jixun and asked.
Pan Jixun was an upright man and served as the governor of Jiangxi. There was a locust plague in Jiangxi. Pan Jixun asked big households to open warehouses and release grain for relief. Those who refused to follow were killed. If Ling Yunyi had not shouldered the reputation of being a murderer, I am afraid Pan Jixun would have been the one to resist the murderous one. The person with the name.
Zhu Yijun motioned for Pan Jixun to take a seat and said, "Governor Pan, I have recommended you to be the Young Sikong to the Ministry of Works to help the Great Sikong. What do you think of Governor Pan?"
Real support.
Pan Jixun couldn't wait.
At the end of the third year of Wanli, Pan Jixun returned to Beijing to report on his work. Zhu Yijun met him at Huangji Gate. He told the Emperor about the method of water-reinforcement and sand-washing. It was not until the seventh day of the first lunar month that Pan Jixun's "River Defense Overview" and "Two Rivers Management" were released by Zhu Yijun. Enter the engineering showcase.
If you ask Pan Jixun if he has ever thought about staying in Jingtang, of course he has, but in the end he bowed his head and said: "I still want to go to Suiyuan, and I would like to ask your majesty to make it happen. Hetao has been occupied by the Northern invaders since the Tianshun period, and has been occupied for several years now. Over the years, the landscape of water and soil has changed, and only by practicing it can we achieve perfection.”
"Excuse me quickly, Governor Pan, we meet again." Zhu Yijun's smile was as warm as the spring breeze, and he said in a brisk tone: "At the end of the third year of Wanli, Governor Pan returned to Beijing to report on his duties. It has been five years since we left. I remember Governor Pan’s demeanor back then” (Chapter 175).
The sunny and cheerful emperor always makes people feel like spring breeze.
Pan Jixun did not leave, and the court discussion continued.
The first person to support Pan Jixun was Gao Gong. Later, after Gao Gong's defeat, Pan Jixun was uneasy, but Zhang Juzheng wrote to him, asking him to continue to manage the Yellow River well. The disputes in the court had nothing to do with Xunli, and then Zhang Juzheng would control the Yellow River floods. , full power was given to Pan Jixun, who was given greater power than when Gao Gong was there. Pan Jixun has since become Zhang Dang.
Zhu Yijun said with a slight regret: "I intend to keep Aiqing at my side. Since my intention to love you has been decided, I can't stop Aiqing from being loyal to the emperor and the country. From today on, Suiyuan, the governor of Aiqing's processing department, will serve as Suiyuan." The leader of military affairs."
There is no such thing as a party, it is just a cliché story of a group of people who intend to revive the Ming Dynasty spontaneously gathered together, trying to use the Quanchu Guild Hall as a link to closely connect each other, trying to turn the tide and help the Ming Dynasty to revive, but ultimately failed. That’s all.
Zhang Juzheng and Pan Jixun wrote many letters and mentioned that the only way to accomplish things is to seek truth from facts.
The governor is a Beijing official sent by the imperial court, but he serves as a local official and is the real official of the frontier.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty." Pan Jixun stood up. The last time we met, His Majesty was still thirteen or fourteen years old. Now that we meet again, he is as handsome and as strong as an ox.
Pan Jixun presided over the management of the Yellow River four times. From the 44th year of Jiajing to the 20th year of Wanli, he worked diligently. His water management concept has been used for more than 300 years. Those who discuss the river after that will definitely regard it as a golden subject.
Now, the Loop has been recovered.
"Your Majesty, there are too many, too many." Pan Jixun quickly bowed his head and said. He never expected that His Majesty would give so much support. After not being in the temple for a long time, Pan Jixun didn't know how powerful the imperial court was. To be honest, he planned to Fortunately, I went there alone, but His Majesty gave me money, grain, seeds, and real money and silver support.
"The governor of Luzon Governor's Mansion, whose surname is Zhengmao, has come to report." Zhang Juzheng said with a very complicated expression: "Yin Butang reminds the court that it is time to collect taxes."
"Tax? What tax?" Wang Guangguang said immediately with his eyes shining.
Zhang Juzheng handed the memorial to Wang Guoguang and said: "Luzon, Cebu, and Mindanao, the Luzon Governor's Palace has been built since the first year of Wanli, and the expedition has ended. Yin Butang said: The imperial court has never inquired, and the minister is worried. An, how can your Majesty abandon his ministers overseas and ignore them?"
"Yin Butang asked Lu Song to build a tax house and an overseas inspection department to specialize in tax inspections and inquiries about overseas goods."
Wang Guoguang opened the memorial and handed it to Zhang Xueyan after reading it. Both Situ's expressions were excited. The Ming Dynasty court had never had any tax issues with the Luzon Governor's Mansion. Most of the imperial court's dealings with overseas Governor's Mansion were tolerant. This tax issue , the court cannot talk about this, it is one of those topics that cannot be touched.
After all, Luzon is far away overseas. If you ask, if you hold a grudge, let alone being of the same mind as the Ming Dynasty, it is not beautiful to be separated from each other.
The Nine Classics of the Country embrace the princes.
This time, the Luzon Governor-General finally took the initiative to mention the matter.
The reason why Yin Zhengmao mentioned this matter was also written very clearly. First, he heard that His Majesty, his children's in-laws, actually had a headache for money, expanded Yanxinglou Trading House, and even borrowed money from the private sector. He immediately reported to His Majesty whether it was possible for him to do so. Forget Luzon, what crimes have been committed by the people of Luzon that His Majesty has ignored! To be honest, the emperor's relatives in the Ming Dynasty were extremely over-acting. They were never the emperor's help. Instead, they kept tossing in all kinds of trivial matters, making the emperor exhausted from wiping his butt. Zhu Yijun really didn't think of looking for relatives. It's about borrowing money.
The second reason is that the war in Luzon has ended. The Davao office of the Hong Mao Fan in Mindanao has been de-armed and specializes in maritime trade communication. This means that the state of war has ended, and the Luzon Governor's Office has also After returning to normalcy from the war, then the tax issue must be discussed proactively. When the court asks, there is no need to be submissive.
The third reason is that Luzon, which has many islands, needs the help of the imperial court, because smuggling of merchant ships is increasing, and pirates come and go without a trace. It needs the support and investigation of the coastal defense inspections of the imperial court, and Luzon We are unable to collect taxes, and there are not so many accountants to collect taxes. Please ask the court for support.
Zhang Juzheng's floating notes tell His Majesty that the first two are true and the last one is false.
When Chen Chengyi, the General Office of Luzon Tongxiang returned to Beijing last year, he introduced the situation in Luzon in detail. There was indeed a shortage of people in Luzon, but it was far from the point where it was necessary to ask for help from the court. There are more than 7,000 islands in Luzon. There is no shortage of freebies and sailors in this place, and there are shipyards in Luzon, so it is possible to build a few hydrofoil sailboats.
Zhang Juzheng judged that Yin Zhengmao's real purpose was to make the Marquis of Sishui of Luzon hereditary and retire with the country. The Marquis of Sishui was one of the few marquis stationed in the area under his jurisdiction. .
Not every generation has talents like Yin Zhengmao. Once the descendants are unworthy, it is not a big deal to be ignored, but everyone in the family will be in danger. Therefore, leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade and hugging the thigh of Ming Dynasty, even if the descendants are unworthy, it will not matter. It would be too bad. At worst, we could move back to Daming!
Yin Zhengmao thinks clearly and pragmatically.
"Divide it into 50% and 50%." Wang Guoguang looked at the memorial and said with a little helplessness. Now he has to find Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang felt that the place was responsible for the capital, and when the capital was used, it had to be lucky for the place. This trip was quite troublesome. Therefore, it was decided that the ancestral law was roughly divided into five and five points, half for the court and half for the local area.
"Just 50-50." Zhu Yijun approved the share ratio. The Overseas Governor's Mansion cannot ask for too much.
The one-whip method that Zhang Juzheng was obsessed with actually betrayed Zhu Yuanzhang's 75-25 split. The calculation of the one-whip method was not complicated. In the end, it was % for the court and % for the local government. Therefore, it is very difficult to promote the one-whip method, and There was not enough silver to support a complete currency tax, and there was no conflict between Zhang Juzheng and the emperor, so the whip law was never implemented.
From physical tax to monetary tax, this was a big step in the tax system of the Ming Dynasty. The tax system reform of the Ming Dynasty was different from the whip method in history. It started from the Chaoguan Branch in Chidao.
"After the physical goods arrive in Songjiang Prefecture, they will be converted into silver at the Songjiang Prefecture Shipping Department, and then divided into parts. The Luzon part will be converted into goods and shipped to Manila." Zhang Xueyan added details. Luzon is far from the stage of implementing monetary tax, and it is still in kind. , it arrived at Songjiang Prefecture and was cashed out. It was not the silver that was shipped again, but the goods.
Under the profits tax, if you want to take the silver out, you will have to pay a 50% profits tax.
"Return the fields." When Wang Chonggu mentioned this matter, his voice became a little lower. He looked around and said: "The shipping departments of the five major cities have arranged the matter of exchanging the fields for the ships. Your Majesty, I think it is not appropriate to do it too early." The land was sold to the public and temporarily turned into official land. Landless refugees were recruited to obtain land rent from official land and supplied to the navy. They could only withdraw it, but they could not buy or sell it. "
"What does this retreat mean?" Zhang Juzheng asked curiously.
Wang Chonggu replied: "You can't buy or sell, but the people who cultivate official land are allowed to move. To push back means to replace the retreat."
"That's it." Zhang Juzheng suddenly understood and smiled. Without much discussion, Wang Chonggu handed the memorial to Feng Bao, and Feng Bao passed it to the emperor for sealing.
Everyone was silent and pretended that this incident had not happened. Pan Jixun's face was filled with confusion. What happened?
It can only be withdrawn but cannot be bought or sold, which restricts the transfer of cadastral land deeds. This leads directly to the third step of returning land. The land is collectively owned, or publicly owned. It seems to prevent the imperial court from losing money due to the transfer of official land due to buying and selling, but In fact, it is to realize the return of farmland step by step.
The Ming Gongs were quarreling with each other in order to return the land, and even changed camps several times. They were tired of the quarrel. Wang Chonggu's vague words could only be withdrawn, and no trading was allowed. The court officials all knew what Wang Chonggu's purpose was. This was not the case at all. It's a sneak attack.
Compared with Zhang Juzheng, who does things openly and domineeringly, people like Wang Chonggu must be careful and careful. If you are not careful, you will be fooled.
Hai Rui sat close to Pan Jixun and explained the stakes in a low voice. Pan Jixun's eyes widened. He had heard about the previous turmoil. Pan Jixun really thought that the imperial court was crazy about poverty and wanted to fully control the interests of sea trade. In the hands of the imperial court, it was finally stopped because of too much opposition.
As a result, the truth turned out to be like this!
Shi Yaohaoyou stared at the huge profits from sea trade, and Wang Chonggu stared at Shi Yaohaoyou's lifeblood.
"Is Secondary Assistant always like this? Is he so...so resourceful?" Pan Jixun asked Hai Rui in a low voice. He couldn't find the right words for a moment. Cunning, cunning and scheming are suitable, but they are really not suitable in front of others. Face to face.
Hai Rui thought for a moment and nodded, "It's always been like this, but Wang Cifu is no match for Yuanfu."
The court meeting ended in a quarrel. Zhu Yijun was already very enthusiastic about the liveliness of the court meeting. After the court meeting, Zhu Yijun specially stayed with Wang Chonggu and Pan Jixun and asked Wang Chonggu about the abolition of humble status and the return of Shibosi to his land. , and then communicated with Pan Jixun about Suiyuan affairs.
When Wang Chonggu left the Wenhua Hall, his footsteps were extremely brisk. Tian Shu could be considered as having specific rules. Although it was just a butterfly flapping its wings, the fire had already been lit. Tian Shu was a fire and the field was flammable. Things, power and power are air, and poor people and coolies are also air. The fight for land, this invisible land war has begun.
But while Wang Chonggu was walking, he suddenly stood still, frowning. He realized something was wrong. The more he thought about it, the more wrong he became. He made a fist with his right hand and hit his left palm hard. There was an expression of disbelief on his face. Unconsciously, he was fooled again! Fell into the trap of this guy Zhang Juzheng!
Wang Chonggu angrily walked into the Wenyuan Pavilion opposite the Wenhua Hall, and stood in front of Zhang Juzheng. The corners of his mouth twitched, his fists were clenched, and his veins were looming. He asked in a low voice with suppressed anger: "Zhang Juzheng, what are you doing again?" Hate me!"
Calling his anger by his name, Wang Chonggu was really furious.
"Don't be impatient for a moment. Don't be impatient for a moment. Sit down and say, don't be so angry. I can't beat you." Zhang Juzheng said with the same smile as the emperor: "Wang Chonggu, we are also old rivals. Since then The Longqing period lasted until the tenth year of Wanli, which has been fifteen or sixteen years. There was cooperation, confrontation, and life-and-death hatred. "
Zhang Siwei was executed by his clan. He was Wang Chonggu's nephew. When Zhang Siwei died, the master Shaoguo suspected that the emperor relied on the support of Zhang Juzheng to achieve this. Without Zhang Juzheng's support, the emperor and the queen mother were just in the harem. Just an orphan and a widowed mother.
"But this time, I didn't trick you." Zhang Juzheng said with great conviction.
"As promised before, I am the one who will write the book "Ask for the Equalization of Fields", and you will do the specific execution. This is in front of His Majesty. The job you took over has now fallen on me! I am the president. Census of Dingkou, abolition of humble status, and return of farmland, return of farmland! You want to harm me!" Wang Chonggu clenched his fist and waved it vigorously.
"You're not afraid of those bitches counterattacking, I'm afraid! Have you forgotten about Xie Qian's descendants?"
Wang Chonggu mentioned an old incident. In the third year of Jiajing, the Dao Master won a great victory in the ceremonial dispute and drove away Yang Tinghe. However, this does not mean that the Dao Master had completely controlled the court. From the third year of Jiajing to the sixth year of Jiajing, There were waves of opposition in the court. Finally, Master Dao had no choice but to invite Xie Qian out.
Xie Qian's posthumous title was Wenzheng. He was the number one scholar in the eleventh year of Chenghua. He was the imperial master of Xiaozong and Wuzong. He was considered a very senior figure. Emperor Jiajing asked Xie Qian to join the cabinet in order to suppress the wave after wave of voices from the civil servants. Xie Qian finally Entering the cabinet represented his support for Emperor Jiajing.
Political struggle is very cruel. In the 26th year of Jiajing reign, all the descendants of Xie Qian were killed by "Japanese pirates". Only his second son, Xie Pi, traveled far away and was not at home. This was also the reason why Zhu Wan suddenly visited Zhejiang. In the 20th year of Jiajing reign, Five years ago, Zhu Wan, who had just been ordered to patrol southern Jiangxi, suddenly received an imperial edict to patrol Zhejiang. The Taoist Master wanted to know what happened, but in the end Zhu Wan committed suicide to express his ambition, and Japanese invasions occurred everywhere.
Xie Qian was the chief assistant of the posthumous title Wenzheng. The descendants of Xie Qian who lived in Yuyao County were killed in this way. The magistrate of Yuyao County said that they were Japanese pirates. He said that the descendants of Xie Qian and the Japanese pirates were engaged in private trading. The uneven distribution of the spoils led to the deaths. disaster.
But Wang Chonggu had his own views on this matter. Wang Chonggu had also done this to the Japanese, so who could do it in private at home? Moreover, the Japanese pirates came and went without a trace. After killing people, no prisoners were caught.
Of course Wang Chonggu was not sure that the massacre of Xie Qian's descendants was causally related to Xie Qian's entry into the cabinet to quell criticism, but Wang Chonggu was afraid.
Wang Chonggu was never Zhang Juzheng. He didn't even dare to get involved in the cause and effect of the Census of Dingkou. But now, he got involved in something huge, returning the land!
"No." Zhang Juzheng turned sideways and said: "In the past, to become an official, you had to return to your roots. Now, after we die, we all have to be buried in the Xishan Mausoleum. This is different. Why worry? Future generations will also stay in the capital for a long time. "
Wang Chonggu was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that the problem was different. This was the capital, and it was indeed different from the past. There were indeed many troubles in the capital, but they were always at the feet of the emperor. The main reason was that Wang Chonggu and Xie Qian were in different situations. He is a top carnivore, and it is good for his family not to bully others.
"So, this is a good opportunity to go down in history." Zhang Juzheng smiled warmly and mentioned a point that Wang Chonggu was most concerned about.
This matter was completed. Wang Chonggu later commented that he was a hero of the Wanli New Deal at least!
"Let me think about it for a moment." Wang Chonggu knew very well that he had been fooled. After a lot of back and forth, he became the executor of the equalization of farmland and the return of farmland. While shouldering the responsibility, he would also gain a reputation accordingly, even if it was true. If you fail, you will at most end up in an official position.
"I was originally opposed to the restoration of the fields." Wang Chonggu said with great conviction: "To this day, I am still opposed!"
After Wang Chonggu abandoned his firm attitude of still opposing, he chose to leave Wenyuan Pavilion. Although he did not fully agree, he still agreed. Wang Chonggu had no choice. He had already boarded the pirate ship and could not get off. He was staring at Zhang Ju was staring at Wang Chonggu.
"I thought Wang Cifu would go crazy." Wang Guoguang exclaimed, Wang Chonggu was really restrained by Zhang Juzheng, and he became the executor of Tianshu in a daze.
"He is mainly afraid of Your Majesty." Zhang Juzheng shook his head and said: "I am indeed helping him. Wang Cifu has been trying to completely get rid of the name of traitor in recent years. He is a treacherous minister. His Majesty has always been worried that he will not If you do something earth-shattering, there is no way to completely untie this knot. The guillotine may fall at any time, and you will be worried all day long. "
"He doesn't want to be scolded for his posthumous reputation for hundreds or thousands of years."
As a treacherous minister, Wang Chonggu had to do something big if he wanted to completely atone for his sins. Firstly, for the sake of the whole family of the old Wang family, and secondly, for the sake of his posthumous reputation. Wang Chonggu had sufficient motivation to do it, because his foundation was no longer The Jin Party, but the 15 craftsmen created by the government factory group.
Wang Chonggu asked His Majesty before, what force should be used to resist the counterattack of the crazy rural sages and gentry? At Wang Chonggu's feet, the 150,000 craftsmen are still expanding. When the scale becomes larger, even if they are against the flood of rural gentry and gentry, Wang Chonggu's identity will change from the leader of the Jin Party to the leader of the Labor Party.
There are still too many uncertainties in the future, and Zhang Juzheng dare not make an immediate assertion. However, as the founder of the Labor Party, Wang Chonggu's descendants have enough power to protect themselves.
Pan Jixun left the capital. When he left, he took with him a fifty-man Tielin Army. They were sent as personal guards to Qi Jiguang, but in fact they were to protect Pan Jixun. Before leaving, Zhu Yijun gave Pan Jixun safety. .
For such a pure minister, Zhu Yijun felt that no matter how much he gave, it was not too much.
