Chapter 256 Find a way to lend him some more

The emperor Zhu Yijun was recognized by the courtiers, because although His Majesty was violent, he was definitely not cruel.

For example, in the case of Wang Xijue, His Majesty even personally summoned Wang Xijue. Everyone pretended to be confused and sang a show. Wang Xijue stopped and the emperor let it go, just like when he cut off the strand of Wang Chonggu's hair. Same.

For example, in the past, everyone took advantage of corruption. If you didn’t take it, you would be an outlier in the government. You don’t even have a chance to stay in this vanity fair, so how can you talk about the future? Hai Rui is so incorruptible that he can only be used as a flag, not as an official, even though Hai Rui is really capable.

After the general trend changes, it is a good choice to make a U-turn immediately. You are not willing to charge into the battle, be unwilling to be the first person, and are unwilling to work hard for the country, the country, and the country, but there are people who take the lead and change the situation. It is not stupid to follow up and shout twice to build momentum, but if you insist on refusing to turn around, you have no choice but to turn around.

Wang Xijue is a typical example of this. The emperor came to talk to you and handed over the stolen money since Wanli. From then on, he stopped. The Metropolitan Procuratorate reported it, but the emperor Zhu Pi refused, and the matter was over. Now, Wang Xijue is still a majestic third-rank official of the Ming Dynasty, and he can still rank in the third rank of the Ming Dynasty.

But Wang Xijue refused, perhaps because of greed, or perhaps because he went too far and too deep. He clearly understood what the emperor meant, but pretended not to understand, and finally reached this point.

To punish someone without teaching is to be cruel. His Majesty has a violent temper, but he definitely did not punish someone without teaching. He taught him anyway and gave him two chances, again and again and again. This is His Majesty's self-inflicted assassination. The iron rule since the driving case.

Zhu Yijun showed mercy to Wang Xijue another time. When Zhang Juzheng left the court, the emperor beheaded twenty-six courtiers. At that time, Wang Xijue's name was almost filled in.

As for His Majesty’s violence, this blames Zhang Juzheng. Without the old bastard, where would the little bastard come from?

The little emperor's bastard qualities are exactly the same as Zhang Juzheng's dog-like temper. He must retaliate for all his anger, and he is as petty as the tip of a needle.

"Let's talk about beheading." Zhu Yijun thought for a while and decided to deal with it. In the emperor's heart, the first third-rank official with real power in the Ming Dynasty was not as good as Chen Zhuang. Chen Zhuang somehow committed suicide.

"Your Majesty, are you going to kill me?" Wan Shihe gritted his teeth, but still disagreed with the emperor. According to your majesty's method of handling, Wang Xijue would end up confiscating his house, so he should not be grateful for the emperor's kindness?

"What do Wan Dazai think?" Zhu Yijun kicked the ball back. He didn't understand what Wan Shihe meant for a while, and thought Wan Shihe was going to plead for Wang Xijue.

Retreating in order to advance is also a way to plead for mercy. What does Wan Shihe mean? Or should he tell it and let the emperor guess?

Is the emperor a child? Guess!

"Your Majesty, the Holy Referee." Wan Shihe kicked the ball back. He didn't have the courage to show his direction, so he couldn't make a direct statement. Wan Shihe stood up for a moment, then stepped back. To the state where His Majesty was right.

Zhu Yijun thought for a while and said: "Then hang yourself quickly. He doesn't want to show dignity, so Tishuai will help him show respect."

Finally, Zhu Yijun gave Wang Xijue a dignity, Wang Xijue really beheaded him in public. It was Wang Xijue who lost his life, but it was the court that was embarrassed. If Wang Xijue committed suicide out of fear of crime, then everyone would have dignity and room for justice.

In political strife, leeway is very important. Only with leeway can there be room and scale for advancement and retreat. If the two sides must be forced to fight each other, and see blood with swords, that is party imprisonment.

There are three ways to destroy a country: seeking glory and humiliation, political indifference, and party corruption.

The purpose of the party is to fight against each other. Even the most basic rules that should be observed are completely abandoned. They can fight to the death over the smallest things. The impact on the world is that orders are changed from day to day, and the court completely loses control. Local control and interference are the most terrifying consequences of party struggle.

For example, during the party struggle in the Northern Song Dynasty, the New Deal and the Old Deal had no meaning at all. Opposition was purely for the sake of opposition. The decree received in the morning was the Green Crops Law, and the decree received in the evening was to abolish the Green Crops Law. This local official can only act according to his own wishes. Who knows what kind of wind will blow in the court today. .

The group of dragons has no leader, and they are all doing their own thing.

The most intense party struggle in the Ming Dynasty should be from the end of Wanli to the Chongzhen period, when the eunuchs of Qi, Chu, Zhejiang and Donglin were involved. You sing and I go on stage. The final result is that the envoys in yellow do not leave the capital. The emperor's envoys, He could no longer leave the capital.

The harm of party supervision to the emperor is that the emperor, the referee, has lost his value, because the emperor's ruling power has lost its effectiveness.

The reason why Zhu Yijun gave Wang Xijue this last dignity was, firstly, not to expand it, and secondly, because of the group of powerful right-wingers behind Wang Xijue, and the court also wanted to use them. At present, the people can participate Those in maritime trade are still powerful, and they also occupy a large share in the long shipbuilding industry chain.

For example, the supply of tung oil is provided by Tongyuan in Huguang, Jiangxi, and Fujian. For example, the main people who can afford to buy boats, hire people, and find boat masters are still Nanya prefectures. The power is to be bold and right.

The tacit understanding between Wan Shihe and the emperor was not high this time. Wan Shihe wanted to ask whether he would be implicated in ransacking his home, but Zhu Yijun understood that it was for Wan Shihe to plead for mercy. Since Wan Dazai was begging for mercy, he would have to give some money. To save face, the difference from beheading to committing suicide out of fear of crime is actually not that big. They are both deaths.

Lu Tiaoyang began to write floating notes, while Zhu Yijun fell into deep thought.

In the original historical line, Emperor Wanli's complete failure was that he did not even approve memorials. It started when Wang Xijue became the chief minister of the cabinet, because Wang Xijue told Emperor Wanli that he did not need to approve memorials that did not go well with him, and he could not keep them. It turns out that since then, Emperor Wanli really didn't review memorials very much, and he did so for thirty years.

In the early years of Wanli, Zhang Juzheng clearly stated in Chen Wu Shi Shu that the emperor should listen to the government, announce to the court ministers, and respond to all approvals.

In the years when Zhang Siwei was the chief minister of the cabinet, he did nothing but made noises to damage Zhang Juzheng's reputation after his death. In the end, nothing was copied from Zhang Juzheng's house. Zhang Siwei was scolded extremely miserably. The countryman Dingyou was worried and died of illness soon.

After Zhang Siwei, there was Shen Shixing. Shen Shixing was a confused fool. He tried to persuade the emperor on one side and the courtiers on the other. The more he tried to please both, the more he failed to please both. In the end, Shen Shixing was so angry that he was splinted. After thinking about it, he could do whoever he wanted to do with this assistant, but he didn't do it anyway!

Shen Shixing is usually considered a conciliatory person, but he actually fought with court officials. He even wanted to inherit Zhang Juzheng's legacy and quickly promote the New Deal, but in the end he was too loud to oppose it. , and he didn't have many party members, so he retired from office amidst the turmoil over the establishment of the crown prince.

After Shen Shixing, the terms of office of the first assistants began to become shorter, and most of them did nothing, that is, just to keep this mess running.

Wang Xijue is just one of these chief assistants. The one he took was a memorial that could be left unpublished. He lived in the temple with Zhuge Lao of the temple. He worked for several years and went to more than two hundred courses. Compared with Li Tingji who wrote official memorials and finally left with his seal, it is not too outrageous.

Since Zhang Juzheng left, Zhang Juzheng’s tragic end has made everyone afraid to move forward. Is this the end of working for your old Zhu family?

Zhang Juzheng shouted out that I am not the prime minister, but the regent, and the regent has returned to the regent, which means that he has strict requirements on frugality. He also gave an extra two hundred thousand taels of pocket money, so he did not ask for more. It is expected that Emperor Wanli's treatment made the scholars feel cold.

In Wang Xijue’s case, Zhu Yijun didn’t even ransack his home. This was also a consideration based on reality.

"Yesterday King Lu was practicing martial arts in the palace and won a fierce fight. The reason why I admonished him before was because he only threatened punishment and refused to reward. Now I finally know that kindness and power should be given equal importance." Zhu Yijun explained while reviewing the memorial. The progress of training the first heir, King Lu.

Zhu Yijun beat Zhu Yijun last time. Although Queen Mother Li was very distressed, she didn't say anything. This time, King Lu seemed to be messing around, even if he was fighting fiercely, he and his guards were also fighting each other. If you practice, you will be rewarded for winning and punished for losing. This is in line with Zhu Yijun's requirements.

The last time King Lu was beaten, it was because he criticized his servants harshly, and he could only control his servants with threats and punishments, without rewards, and with clear rewards and punishments. Obviously, King Lu was constantly growing, and Zhu Yijun also paid attention to King Lu’s education. Very caring.

Look at me, courtiers, and I look at you. King Lu was originally going to be sent to Yicheng County to be trained by Zhang Juzheng himself, but because Wang Xijue and Zhang Juzheng expressed their feelings in person, they failed to make the trip in the end. The emperor's education was even worse than that of Prince Lu, even more severe than Zhang Juzheng's training.

It is better to send it to Yicheng Bofu.

Zhu Yijun is the best player in the youth group, and he still has the means to teach his younger brother how to behave.

"Starting from next year, the official engraving of the Four Books and Five Classics, subject to Mr.'s annotations, is the edition I read. The provincial examination, the general examination and the imperial examination will be added to arithmetic. After Mr. left, we will organize the academic affairs. Everyone. Is Mr. Ming going to ignore it?" Zhu Yijun's tone became a bit colder. It was extremely hot in June, but the courtiers felt the biting chill.

Zhang Juzheng has many New Deals, and each one is placed in the window of the side hall of Wenhua Palace. According to the agreement between the emperor and Zhang Juzheng, the academic and political textbooks after Wanli five years will be based on the one used by the emperor. The official engraving shall prevail. Previously, the annotated version by Zhu Xi was the standard, but now the annotated version by Zhang Juzheng is the standard.

This change of standards is actually very difficult to achieve. After Zhang Juzheng left the court, the court officials pretended not to know that they would rather push forward the shipping of grain and sea transportation than participate in this matter. This requires The decree was scolded to death by Shi Lin.

Zhang Juzheng's knowledge is naturally good. The emperor used Zhang Juzheng's annotations and praised them. However, Zhang Juzheng's annotations are indeed a bit deviant.

There are both metaphysical and metaphysical explanations for benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom, trust, gentleness, courtesy and frugality. This explanation based on the theory of contradiction itself denies the sages and the sages, because the most fundamental way of the theory of contradiction is that under the succession of contradictions, all things They are all constantly developing because of contradictions.

But what Confucianism pays most attention to is the law of three generations above, which is the law established by the ancestors and the adherence to rules.

In order to rectify academic affairs, even if you kill a few academic officials, it is better than changing the rules of interpretation.

Zhang Juzheng's annotation, you don't have to study, as long as you don't take the imperial examination, it doesn't matter if you don't study, no one forces you to do it, but if you don't take the imperial examination to study, then why study?

Obviously, Zhu Yijun intends to forcefully implement the reform of the imperial examination, which requires changing the interpretation of knowledge. It also needs to increase arithmetic and further promote degree bypass.

"You gentlemen look embarrassed, are you going to pretend to be deaf and dumb?" Zhu Yijun's tone became even colder. No one mentioned it. As the emperor, Zhu Yijun had already raised it, but the courtiers still didn't say anything. Just use silence to object.

There are many ways to express disapproval, and silence is also one.

"Your Majesty, I think there is nothing wrong with it." As a general, Qi Jiguang was cautious in his words and deeds in military matters, and in government affairs, he said nothing. As a general in the Beijing camp, Qi Jiguang Sitting in the Wenhua Hall, I was extremely silent most of the time.

But when the emperor needs it, he will tell his majesty that the 120,000 soldiers in the Beijing camp are standing firmly behind his majesty. His majesty has the ability to lift the table at any time.

Although Qi Jiguang doesn't understand why even the courtiers don't agree, if His Majesty feels it is necessary, then do it and eliminate the opponents in a physical sense, then there will be no more objections.

Zhu Yijun showed a smile, looked at Qi Jiguang and said: "Commander Qi, please be patient. The courtiers did not force the palace, nor did they force the palace."

Did the courtiers force the palace? Is being so silent a means of forcing the palace, and is it not just a matter of His Majesty's words?

Zhang Juzheng and Qi Jiguang were civil and military ministers assisting Bi. Yu Dayou smiled beside him, looked around, and said nothing. Sometimes, silence is also a kind of agreement. Qi Jiguang expressed his stance as a martial artist above all other military officials. If Yu Dayou did not object, he agreed.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, this addition theory has been agreed upon a long time ago. I think it is excellent. Since the Ming Dynasty bypassed the degree, everything has become regular. It can be said to be the Ming Dynasty's luck. Congratulations to Your Majesty, and congratulations to the Ming Dynasty." Wang Guoguang first agreed to the addition of arithmetic to the imperial examination. The addition of arithmetic to the imperial examination was done after the fifth year of Wanli. As early as the palace examination in the second year of Wanli, it was decided by the court, and the court officials had no objections.

"What does Da Situ mean that the Four Books and Five Classics annotated by Mr. are official engravings and will not be implemented for the time being?" Zhu Yijun asked with a frown.

"Sir, the government will not agree to it." Wang Guoguang said with certainty, no longer silent, but chose to express his position as a crony of Zhang Juzheng. His Majesty wants the right to explain knowledge, but the timing If you don’t have it, it’s useless to ask for it.

“It’s just because Mr. Xi is not in court that we do it.” Zhu Yijun also refused to give in. The current official editions of the Four Books and Five Classics are all Zhu Xi’s style, and the Xinxue is more meaningful than Zhu Xi’s, at least the Xinxue There are also people who talk about the unity of knowledge and action, but Zhu Xi’s approach is a dead end.

Zhang Juzheng did object. Zhu Yijun had mentioned this matter to Zhang Juzheng when he was giving the feast before. Zhang Juzheng was very opposed. Although it seemed that Zhang Juzheng was convinced, Zhang Juzheng did not push it. Obviously Zhang Juzheng had concerns. .

Writing a book to establish a theory of contradictions is one thing, but if the Four Books and Five Classics with my own annotations are designated as official editions, it is a serious matter, so I have to be cautious.

"Your Majesty, after Wang Yangming left, most of his disciples were just talkative people. This is a lesson for others." Seeing that His Majesty wanted to go his own way, Wang Guangguang still expressed Zhang Juzheng's concerns. It was not for the sake of posthumous reputation, but because he was afraid that after the knowledge was widely spread, he would be criticized. Misinterpretation, if it is misinterpreted, it is better to just treat it as an imperial book and put it away in the palace for the use of the emperor's heirs only.

Because the philosophical view of opposition and unity is difficult to accept, if necessary, it can be taught in the Hanlin Academy, and there is no need for official inscriptions in the world.

This is also Zhang Juzheng’s opinion.

"What he said is reasonable, but Mr. also said that overcorrection will lead to overcorrection. If you want to correct it, let's do it." Zhu Yijun thinks that what Wang Guoguang said is very reasonable, but he does not intend to change his idea, but to continue to implement it.

Zhu Yijun was more radical than Zhang Juzheng in many cases, and the most radical person in the DPRK was Tan Lun. Especially regarding the new coup law, Zhu Yijun was more radical than Zhang Juzheng and was more open-minded and open-minded in doing things. Pay attention to flood irrigation.

This is the limitation of the courtiers now. They have no effective means to limit the Ming Emperor's decision-making.

In fact, there was no such error correction mechanism in the entire Ming Dynasty. The cabinet and the Sixth Section could indeed refute the emperor's edict. This is what Wang Guoguang did just now. He was opposing the emperor's edict. Government orders, if the emperor chooses to have his own way, he can only obey them.

This is an imperial world ruled by kings and ministers. Wang Guoguang has already tried his best to stand up and talk to the emperor.

As the emperor's advisor, Zhang Juzheng can effectively restrict some of the emperor's decisions. This is a special era background, that is, under the suspicion of the young master, Zhang Juzheng, as the substantial holder of the highest power, can do this .

It's a pity that Zhang Juzheng was fishing in Xishan, and his main purpose was to be lazy. The emperor really made a mess, and it would not be too late for him to come out and clean it up.

Zhu Yijun's decree finally passed the court without any objection or much approval.

Tan Lun took out a memorial and said: "Guo Siji, the governor of Zhili, impeached Ren Xian, the commander-in-chief of Sichuan and Shasha. He embezzled military supplies when he was serving in the Suzhou Guards during the Longqing period. This is an old case in the fourth year of Longqing. At that time, Ren Xian was the governor of Suzhou and embezzled military supplies at a discount of 3,500 taels of silver. "

"At that time, there was an impeachment by the censor, and Ren Xian was acquitted, and soon he was promoted to the general, Guo Si. I will report the matter and ask the court to investigate it. "

This is an old case from the fourth year of Longqing. Ren Xian escaped from questioning by chance, not because he ran away, but because Ren Xian followed Qi Jiguang's path and became a worshiper. After becoming a disciple of Zhang Juzheng, he was lucky enough to escape the disaster.

The facts of this case are not complicated, and the facts are conclusive. Ren Xian had pleaded guilty at the time, and it was Zhang Juzheng who bailed him out.

Now, Guo Siji, the censor of the Southern Zhili Prefecture, is opening fire on the old case of Ren Xian. In fact, he wants to test it.

"Second Assistant, no matter what happens, you will not be punished twice. Since you have already dealt with it at that time, you don't have to worry about it. It was different from today. At that time, if you didn't work under the teacher, how could you do anything? I am also under the teacher. "Zhu Yijun's words showed his partiality. In this case, a total of one commander and two generals were dismissed.

"Your Majesty is wise." Wang Chonggu bowed his head and said.

The current cabinet is a clay sculpture cabinet. Lu Tiaoyang said all day long that what his majesty said was absolutely true. Wang Chonggu simply didn’t even go to Wenyuan Pavilion. The emperor did whatever he said, and there was no one to blame Chen Shan. None.

Wang Chonggu joined the cabinet, but did not work in the cabinet. This is also in line with the cabinet rules.

During the Jiajing, Longqing, and Wanli years, the power of the cabinet was extremely great. In order to handle errands, court officials would be appointed to the cabinet to better mobilize manpower, material resources, and authority to do things; some were old and sick, and were sick, so they could not enter the cabinet due to illness. The most typical one is Lu Tiaoyang, who works in the cabinet; there are also those who simply hide away because they don't want to compete with each other, and the most typical one is Li Chunfang.

Wang Chonggu joins the cabinet but does not go to Wenyuan Pavilion, which is in line with the rules. Either he is not in his position and does not seek political power. Let Wang Chonggu join the cabinet, or let him better supervise the Mao Ni Official Factory and Xishan Coal Bureau .

So, the cabinet is now a yes man.

"Guo Siji talked about this matter, saying that the appointment of Xian was originally a crime, and he was lucky enough to get away with it. Why was he still promoted to the commander-in-chief a few years later, and why was he still impeached for his promotion? ." Tan Lun knew that the emperor did not intend to settle old scores, so he raised the second question about Nan Ya's patrol officer.

This Ren Xian is a minister of Dai Zui. How did he get promoted?

Everyone knows that Ren Xian is Zhang Juzheng’s subordinate. Before Zhang Juzheng was in power, even if Zhang Juzheng didn’t speak up, if the people below recommended him, it would only be Ren Xian. After being promoted, he went to the Quanchu Guild Hall to ask if Zhang Juzheng meant to promote Ren Xian.

So, Ren Xian was promoted as a sinner.

"Yuan Fu, when Mr. left the court, the Second Assistant ran away. I sent Tiqi to capture him. This great Sikou still entered the cabinet and became the Second Assistant. Why do I feel that Guo Si You are very dissatisfied with the appointment of the chief minister to the cabinet, so you deliberately criticized Sang and Huai?" Zhu Yijun used a trick to divert the fire.

They are all guilty and promoted. If Ren Xian has a problem, then Wang Chonggu also has a problem.

Wang Chonggu was stunned and frightened. The more he looked at it, the more similar it became. Wang Chonggu thought that Guo Siji was responding to the Nanya Demon Book and criticizing Zhang Juzheng. His Majesty said this, this Guo Siji He was clearly planning to hunt down rabbits, so he took care of Wang Chonggu!

Wang Chonggu stood up, shook his sleeves, knelt on the ground, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, if I didn't leave at that time, Your Majesty would not be able to see me. Someone with ulterior motives wants to put me on the fire rack and cook him in the fire. I have no choice but to flee, so I ask for your Majesty's warning!"

"Second Assistant, please get up quickly." Zhu Yijun motioned to Wang Chonggu to stand up and speak, and then said: "Guo Siji seemed to have said two things, but In fact, there is only one thing to say. This Ren Xian is guilty. He is guilty of being a disciple of the teacher."

"Is it a crime to worship the teacher?"

"Mr. I think one thing should be viewed according to the situation of the world, rather than just considering your own likes and dislikes. At that time, the military generals of the Ming Dynasty did not worship under the name of Mr., but under whose name? In the Jialong period, who could the generals worship under? Where is the name? Da Sima was ostracized because of his ability to fight."

"The generals are controlled by civil servants, like slaves. This is what Mr. Wanli said when he asked me to give some power to the generals."< br>
“At that time, except for hereditary officials, only Chinese-style martial arts exercises were allowed, and there was no other recommendation. Today, unlike in the past, military merit can be admitted to the martial arts schools under construction, and there is a step for promotion.”< br>
Zhu Yijun's protection and favoritism for Zhang Juzheng was not an unfounded excuse, but a very clear and detailed explanation. This reply was already very reasonable and well-founded.

If Ren Xian really made an unforgivable mistake, then the commander and the two generals would not be dismissed because of this incident. The path that Ren Xian can take cannot be taken by these two. ?

Lü Tiaoyang referred to the many opinions of the court, wrote a floating note, excerpted the emperor's speech, and asked the emperor to seal it and send it to Nanya from the Procuratorate, as a reply.

I can’t read it back. It was Wang Xijue who provided Emperor Wanli with a great trick to deal with corruption. After Zhang Juzheng left, the emperor still had to approve everything.

Wu Guifang, the Governor of Water Transport, reported that four million dan can be used to transport grain, and 3 million dan will be transported by sea this year. This will free up three months of river transport time. He also proposed a package of proposals to stimulate commerce along the canal. These The proposal had a total of twenty-six items. After a long discussion, three items were deleted, twelve items were revised, and finally the proposal was passed.

The banknotes of the Daming Canal collect treasured banknotes. This is one of the few situations where treasured banknotes are still in use. However, due to the fact that in the past, four million shi of grain were transported by water, the income of the banknotes is actually not too high. High, it can only be attributed to others in the accounts of the Department of Accounts.

But now with the release of transportation capacity, the tax revenue of Hecao Chaoguan is constantly increasing. If we only collect treasure banknotes, it will be a loss.

According to Wu Guifang's opinion, taxes should not be collected on rivers and should be completely liberalized to promote commerce along the river.

However, Guo Chaobin, Minister of Industry and Industry, objected. The tax revenue from the river canal should be used to maintain the canal. If no tax is collected, where will this money come from? In the end, Chaoguan became Yinguan, and the tax collected changed from treasure notes to silver coins or silver.

Amassing profits is regarded as a scourge by Qingliu. However, the court's previous embarrassment of not having any money left behind made the courtiers less scrupulous about amassing profits. There will definitely be some objections, but there is no such thing as opposition. In order to gather profits, the late emperor's mausoleum was in arrears for twelve months, which really undermined the dignity of the imperial court.

"The red-haired envoy and captain Antonio has returned to Beijing. I plan to see him tomorrow. He will also go to Beijing with the two captains and four sailors on the ship. Return to Beijing to report to Taixi The trip will be announced after the court meeting is over." Seeing that the court meeting was coming to an end, Zhu Yijun talked about the arrival of the big ship.

“Oh, by the way, when Antonio comes to Beijing, he must first go to the inner bank to pay back the money he owes me.”

The inner bank eunuch Cui Min reported that the emperor’s loan to Antonio was Antonio has paid off the principal and interest, and Zhu Yijun is a little worried about this. The interest he gives is not high, only 4% a year. Antonio pays back too quickly, so Zhu Yijun cannot get the interest.

"Sea trade is very profitable. Of course, if you have money, you will definitely pay it back. Otherwise, if the court does not let his ship arrive at the port, he will have to sell his hands one more time in Manila, and the loss will be huge." Wang Guoguang is also the same. Said with slight emotion.

Zhu Yijun thought about it for a long time and said with a smile: "Find a way to lend him some more. Doesn't he want to be the king of Portugal? How can he be the king without money? It is true that the common people support him, but Felipe II is also eyeing Portugal and is a powerful enemy. On the side, this war will definitely make money."

Zhu Yijun has never worried about Antonio not paying back the money he owes. The only reason is that he is not allowed to do business in the Daming Sea. He can't resist the planting that Antonio used as collateral. The garden is also Zhu Yijun's coveted target. If Antonio fails to pay back the money he owes, Zhu Yijun can use force to collect the debt.

Zhu Yijun has always been a real dragon that eats people.

Silence, sometimes it means agreement, sometimes it means opposition, sometimes it means being distracted, please give me your monthly vote, ow! ! ! ! ! !
