Chapter 1152 Benefits
"Oh?" Emperor Jiajing looked at Luo Dao with a smile, "Tell me."

"Let's talk about the reasons for the failure of the two of them first. Xu Shixing's failure lies in the Xu House. At the beginning, Xu Shixing resisted the pressure of the Xu House and did not agree to the Xu House's participation in Daming Maritime Trade. If he could withstand the pressure of the Xu House in this way, There would not have been the chaos of the Shibo Division. However, Xu Shixing withstood the pressure from the Xu Mansion, but he did not withstand the pressure from his immediate boss Zhang Juzheng. If Zhang Juzheng hadn't called Xu Shixing to the magistrate's office several times to put pressure on Xu Shixing, Xu Shixing would never compromise at all, and there would be no subsequent failure.

Therefore, the crime of chaos in Shibosi does not lie with Xu Shixing, but with Zhang Juzheng.It's just that Xu Shixing became a scapegoat in the end. "

Emperor Jiajing's complexion became ugly, and Luo Xin said this very bluntly, which means that you, Emperor Jiajing, punished the wrong person.Even if there was nothing wrong with punishing Xu Shixing, why not punish Zhang Juzheng?
Why not punish Zhang Juzheng?
Emperor Jiajing and Luo Xin knew it very well, because at that time, Emperor Jiajing needed to rely on Xu Jie, and Gao Gong at that time was not Xu Jie's opponent at all, and was crushed to death by Xu Jie.Therefore, Emperor Jiajing gave Xu Jie a face, only dealing with Xu Shixing, but not Zhang Juzheng.

"Your Majesty, there is another problem with the Shibo Department. Of course, Zhang Juzheng is not to blame for the problem. The Japanese pirates appeared too suddenly. However, after so long, Zhang Juzheng has not come up with an effective solution, even if it is a suggestion. It is incompetent.

The most important thing is that when Zhang Juzheng went to the southeast to serve as the magistrate, Xu's mansion jumped on Shibosi like a cat smelling fishy.Moreover, the Xu Mansion was very unscrupulous, and for the sake of self-interest, it almost brought down Daming Maritime Trade.Now let Zhang Juzheng go to the Xuanfu to serve as the magistrate and the promotion of the mutual market, does His Majesty think that the Xufu will let go of this opportunity?
will not!

Absolutely not!

Once the Xu Mansion gets involved again, with the greed of the Xu Mansion, it will mess up the mutual market, not to mention the implementation of the business tax plan of taking one out of [-], even if it can collect taxes normally, I don’t know if it can be collected, or even directly The mutual market is yellowed.

Your Majesty, Zhang Ju is Xu Jie's most proud disciple, and he will not refuse the Xu family to join.There is a precedent for the Shipping Department in Southeast City, so I am very worried. "

"Can Xu Shixing do it?" Emperor Jiajing showed hesitation on his face.

"Your Majesty, if there is no Xu Jie, or if Zhang Juzheng is not Xu Jie's disciple, there is no doubt that Zhang Juzheng is the best choice. Because Zhang Juzheng is the first assistant."

Emperor Jiajing's expression did not change. In his heart, Emperor Jiajing originally trained Zhang Juzheng as the future chief assistant.So Luo Xin said that Zhang Juzheng is talented as a chief assistant, he is not surprised.However, Luo Xin was shocked by what he said next.

"I also think that Xu Shixing is also talented as a chief assistant. It's just that he is younger than Zhang Juzheng and lacks experience and experience. However, the experience of Shibosi will definitely make him mature."

Emperor Jiajing looked at Luo Dao: "Do you think Xu Shixing is also talented as a chief assistant?"

Luo Xinxin secretly said: "Isn't this nonsense? In history, both Zhang Juzheng and Xu Shixing served as chief assistants. How could they not be the talents of chief assistants?"

"Yes!" Luo Xin nodded decisively.

"Then what are you?" Emperor Jiajing looked at Luo Xin with a smile.

Luo Xin said without blushing and heartbeat: "Of course I also have the talents of the first assistant, but the first assistant is not the goal of the minister's life. Your Majesty knows the goal of the minister's life. Now there are old Xu Ge and Gao Ge. After that, with Zhang Juzheng and Xu Shixing, Daming will have no worries about the cabinet for the next few decades."

The meaning of Luo Xin's words is very clear. I have the talent to lead and assist, but my ambition is not here. I like to study knowledge and put my love on mountains and rivers.Besides, there were Xu Jie and Gao Gong before the Ming Dynasty, and Zhang Juzheng and Xu Shixing later, so I don’t need Luo Xin. If Your Majesty, you don’t want me to be the chief minister of the cabinet, then you have to give Zhang Juzheng and Xu Shixing the experience. Chance.For these two people to enter the cabinet in the future, sharpen them.

Zhang Juzheng is running the Shibo Department in the south, and Xu Shixing is running the mutual market in the north.

Giving two people the same status and the same training can also tell the winner.In the future, the winner will be the first assistant of the cabinet, and the loser will be the second assistant of the cabinet.Isn't it in line with Emperor Jiajing's wishes for the two to check and balance each other in the cabinet?
After Luo Xin finished speaking, Emperor Jiajing also wanted to understand, and he couldn't help but be overwhelmed by this arrangement.This is from the beginning of the fourth rank, making Zhang Juzheng and Xu Shixing competitors.Once this competitor has formed a habit, he becomes a political enemy.In the future, if two people enter the cabinet, they will definitely check and balance each other.

High!

Emperor Jiajing's gaze towards Luo Xin softened a lot. Judging from Luo Xin's suggestion, there was no room for Luo Xin at all. Now there are Xu Jie and Gao Gong, and in the future there will be Xu Shixing and Zhang Juzheng.Obviously, Luo Xin just didn't want to join the cabinet.

This shows what?
This shows that Luo Xin really doesn't want to be an official.This made Emperor Jiajing's fear of Luo Xin minimized.Finally nodded and said:
"Then are you planning to go to the southeast now, or wait until the mutual market has a look before going?"

"Wait." Luo Xin thought for a while.

"Okay, so you can go back and have a good rest for a while. If you have enough rest, go to the Imperial Academy and Zhanshi Mansion, and Zaihou if you have time."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Go back."

"Farewell, sir!"

Luo Xin returned to the mansion, and really began to concentrate on resting.This period of time is really tiring, what Hanlin Academy, what Zhanshi Mansion, what Yu Wang Mansion, I completely forget about it, and spend every day doing business in the mansion to reward wives and children.

Luo Xin lived a peaceful life at home, but the court was different.It's like a storm is brewing.

Luo Xin went to the grassland and negotiated a contract with Mongolia. When Daming and Goryeo were at war, not only did they not send troops to attack Daming, but they also borrowed [-] soldiers from Jurchen, and at the same time started a mutual market in Xuanfu.

What a good thing this is!
Mutual market!
What a profit!
Too many giant businessmen are eyeing this area. Of course, the supporters behind those giant businessmen, that is, the officials in the officialdom, have already sharpened their knives.

but……

Emperor Jiajing suddenly sent out news, and the first news that came out made the government and the people happy. The first news that Emperor Jiajing released was to stop the construction of Yuxi Palace.The reason is simple, because Emperor Jiajing saw the hardships of the people, and he would rather live in hardship than the people.

As soon as this decision was made, the ruling and opposition parties were grateful.There were voices praising Emperor Jiajing everywhere.
