Chapter 316: After staying in the dark for a long time, I am always afraid that the sun will not rise
The Ming Emperor’s investment of 20.07 million silver was divided into two investment methods.
The first is to directly invest in building factories, such as Songjiang Xingang Shipyard, Longjiang Shipyard, Fujian Xingang Shipyard, Guangzhou Dianbai Shipyard, Fujian Tongyuan, Songjiang Weaving Bureau, Nanya Weaving Bureau, etc. ; The second type is indirect investment, looking for reliable projects, or borrowing or buying shares, to form debts and equity. Different from direct wholly-owned factory construction, this kind of debts and equity are not assets in physical form, but debts and equity. Assets in the form of debit currency.
As for these two assets, the first one is to build a factory directly, which is not so easy to fake. After all, there are both eunuchs and civil servants, as well as the supervision of the official factory. Under the supervision of the three parties, in six volumes and one Under the account of the dirty emperor, the difficulty will increase exponentially. The hardest hit area is the second way, indirect investment.
Because in this way, it is very feasible to defraud the emperor of his money.
Under the huge, bloated and rigid bureaucracy, the response is slow. Usually people who have defrauded money will run away, and ultimately they can't find where the money went.
This kind of behavior that harms the public and enriches private interests is very common. Isn’t this how treasuries in various places are emptied? By the time it came to its senses, all the money from the court had fallen into the pockets of individuals. If the court wanted to investigate, they would immediately introduce a scapegoat and pin all the debts on this person. It was not uncommon to clear old debts. .
That’s why Lu Tiaoyang, the chief minister of the cabinet, presented the preventive measures to reduce the losses from the source.
Lü Tiaoyang’s memorial starts from the nature of the money. It should always be noted that the 20.07 million silver is the private money of the Ming Emperor himself and the money of the powerful right-wingers of the Jin Party. It does not belong to the public, but to the emperor personally. This must be explained clearly. Once the emperor's money is defrauded, it does not harm the public family and enrich the private family, but steals the emperor's money.
Under this nature, the emperor will activate non-punishment for punishment. The scope of application of non-punishment is heinous crimes, the lightest of which is also a capital crime. No matter how important the emperor is to engage in intercourse, there will be no one You can plead for mercy, but you can't tolerate it. You've stolen it from the emperor. If you even dare to do such a thing, that's no longer ordinary boldness. Is there anything else you dare not do?
The content of the entire memorial is very clear. It starts from the source to increase the cost of crime, and then comes supervision. At this point, whether it is direct investment or indirect investment, there will definitely be mistakes in the supervision of internal funds. This large-scale investment is indeed The emperor's personal behavior is related to the country's major maritime affairs and must not be taken carelessly.
Supervision should be controlled by three parties: local inspectors, imperial governors and eunuchs, and internal money eunuchs. A chain of suspicion cannot be formed by two or two parties, but it can be formed by three parties.
When doing the accounting afterward, the Ministry of Revenue’s state money should also be checked together with the ceremonial supervisor, the internal money eunuch, and the arithmetic doctor of the Gewu Academy, etc. to check for omissions and fill in the gaps to prevent the saints from being deceived.
The imperial court also made huge investments in opening up the sea, mainly dredging waterways, increasing river patrols, cleaning up river and sea pirates, inspecting privately established passes in various places, and increasing the circulation of goods. The imperial court The benefit is tax.
The land tax in the Ming Dynasty has been a long-standing problem, and the ratio of local retention to the court has been implemented for two hundred years. However, in terms of commercial tax, the court’s local retention ratio is tentatively set at 20%. .
The purpose of the memorial is to enable the smooth implementation of the 20.07 million silver, to allow the silver to flow to where it is needed in an orderly manner, to help the Ming Dynasty open up the sea, and to solve the problem of how to spend the money, rather than It forms an orgy for carnivores, a feast of carvings.
Confusing the emperor's personal investment with the court's investment is not a typical case of indistinguishable public and private investment? As the chief assistant, how could Lu Tiaoyang make such a mistake?
The king is selfless. Even marriage, having children, and favoring a certain woman are all state affairs. As a king, while enjoying the supreme power, he has no private affairs. This is not because Lu Tiaoyang does not distinguish between public and private affairs, but the emperor himself. It means that the existence of public and private attributes cannot be separated.
Everyone in the world is private, but the emperor is public.
"No, the content of this indirect investment...is open to discussion?!" Zhu Yijun looked at the memorial in his hand. He had no objection to the other contents, including the accounts of the household department, the inspector, the governor and the censor, The internal officials were restrained by three parties, and the accounts of the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Gewuyuan were kept together. This was the proper meaning. During the Yongle period, Xia Yuanji, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, was highly involved in the voyages to the West.
Zhu Yijun only has doubts about the content of this investment.
“Is there any problem?” Wang Guoguang asked doubtfully.
“Forget about this worsted woolen trading house. After all, I did it in Beiya. It makes sense to set up trading houses in Yingtianfu, Songjiangfu, and Hangzhoufu. However, this investment boat What's going on with the business?" Zhu Yijun said with a mixed expression while holding the memorial.
The emperor's money was used in the leather and meat business. No matter how shameless Zhu Yijun was, he always felt that he couldn't keep his face.
It’s making trouble!
Wang Guoguang said very calmly: "The paintings are all women from outside the country now. Your Majesty is investing, not providing relief. You want to repay."
Zhu Yijun waved his hands repeatedly and said: "No, no, no. , who can guarantee that there will always be foreign women in the painting boat? If the sailing ship does not arrive at the port next year and the Ming Dynasty's silk cannot be sold, it will inevitably affect the treatment of the weaver girl in the Weaving Bureau. By then, there will definitely be women in the painting boat. I have children of the Ming Dynasty. "
"I am the emperor, and if you take action, billions of people will look up to you, and you will do it, and it will work. I agree now, and the Ming Dynasty will be full of prostitutes in the future. , I must not do it."
"Cross out this item, I can make less money, and I can't do this kind of thing."
"Wang Cifu wants to do it, I can. Return 10.07 million silver to Wang Cifu.”
Wang Chonggu was frightened and hurriedly bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, I don't dare to do anything. Please spare your life. If you don't do this business, I won't do it!"
Zhu Yijun's behavior is because of his simple values. , and Wang Chonggu’s behavior is for his own head. Your Majesty can’t say for sure, then you can’t!
"They are all indirect holdings of debt, not even equity. Boats are not cheap after all, and there are not many that can be purchased." Wang Guoguang still insisted. The reason is very simple. As the chief minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, he , it is his duty to raise money for the imperial court. The imperial court does not lend money and does not accept the benefits. Some people charge this interest, and some people do this business.
This stuff has been around since ancient times.
Wang Chonggu immediately said: "Transfer this money to cotton spinning and sugar refining, Da Situ, the silver is just silver, whether it is dirty or not, but the source of the silver is different, it is better not to do it. . I feel that cotton spinning and sugar making are much more profitable than this painting boat." "Really?" Wang Guangguang asked with a frown.
"I am a merchant and I am better at doing business than Da Situ." Wang Chonggu said with great confidence.
Zhu Yijun looked at Wang Chonggu. This guy was indeed talented in doing business. He had already seen the new trends, cotton spinning and sugar making, both of which were hard currencies. Currency, the boat-painting business doesn't make much and still gets scolded, so it really can't be done.
"Then let's cancel it. I have no objection, and in fact, I am not happy either." Guoguo just looked at Wang Chonggu's sworn guarantee and chose to compromise. It was okay not to do the boat painting business, regardless of his identity as the chief situ. , as a Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty, and as a Duke of the Ming Dynasty, Wang Guoguang actually looked down on the right and powerful people who were engaged in the flesh and blood business, but this investment was for profit.
In the main public opinion of the Ming Dynasty, even merchants who abandoned Confucianism and went into business were looked down upon by officials.
Lu Tiaoyang's memorial was finally criticized by Emperor Zhu, and it can be regarded as a substantial guiding document. It can be summarized as waste, corruption, theft, transfer, misappropriation, etc. If you dare to steal, you dare to kill.
Lü Tiaoyang took out the second memorial and looked at His Majesty on the platform. Lu Tiaoyang didn't even know how to explain the content of this memorial.
Zhu Yijun nodded and said: "Yuanfu, let's talk."
"Shanxi rebels fled, defected to Bansheng, Anda Khan sent them back to the Daming Pass, Datong general Dong Yiyuan "Shangzou asked about the treatment," Lu Tiaoyang said with a sigh.
The place of escape, and it was a place of escape that the Ming Dynasty did not know about. It was Anda Khan who sent the people back, and the Ming court found out. Fifty-two people in total.
"It has been three years since the Ming Dynasty paid wages. Why are these volunteers still fleeing?" Zhu Yijun looked at Zeng Xingwu, the left minister of the Ministry of War. He seemed to be asking, but in fact he asked Zeng Xingwu to explain the whole matter clearly. .
"Shanxi's volunteer soldiers are extremely weak. Each town has been deducting work and food to provide military supplies. They have been doing this for a long time. Volunteer soldiers? They are landless farmers." Zeng Shengwu explained the reason for the matter with sweat on his forehead.
Volunteers, that is, civilian laborers, are strong men who are brought to the border to do some chores. They are not even hired by the border army. They are given food to eat, but the border army does not have enough to eat. The volunteers had nothing to eat. If they couldn't survive, they had to find a way to escape. It was an extremely common phenomenon to escape outside the Great Wall.
Since the volunteers were no longer in the camp, there was no one to take care of them. In the past, Anda Khan would directly take them in. This time, for various purposes, Anda Khan took these fifty-two volunteers. The soldiers were sent back to the Ming Dynasty.
Ananda Khan’s first purpose was naturally to fulfill the treaty he had just signed and to repatriate him privately across the wall. His second purpose was naturally to disgust the complacent Emperor of the Ming Dynasty and to work hard to revitalize the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty was so good. , why did these volunteers flee to him? The third purpose is to alleviate the internal conflicts among the lower right wing ministries. Anda Khan released a positive signal of his willingness to have good relations with the Ming Dynasty and appease the mood of the internal peace advocates.
Generally speaking, the Ming Dynasty has indeed lost a lot of people due to Anda Khan's move. How to deal with these repatriated volunteers?
"If they were sent back to their hometowns along the Guandao Post Road, could these people really survive? These fifty-two people could be drowned by spitting, and what would the other Shanxi volunteers think? "In my opinion, let's send these volunteers to Taotu Mountain to manage and reclaim the prisoners of war." Zhu Yijun made a decision. He had actually already thought of a way to deal with it.
The volunteers ran away because they were about to starve to death. The Ministry of War admitted that there was indeed a problem. The Emperor of Ming Dynasty issued an order to kill the escaped volunteers, which somewhat made Anda Khan laugh. What? The people are the foundation of the country, but the emperor killed people without asking the reason when he lost face.
Sending them back to their hometowns also forces these volunteers to die.
Going to Taotu Mountain and managing the prisoner-of-war camp is a good compromise. It is indeed exile to the side, which is indeed punishment, and it is also protection.
Zhu Yijun looked at the ministers, thought for a long time, and then said: "It is easier said than done to eliminate the old evils?"
"The rebels are extremely weak, and each town withholds food and work to provide military supplies. At that time, the imperial court was in arrears with wages and the military towns were under-armed, so it was understandable that the towns withheld labor and food to provide military supplies. Today, the imperial court no longer owes wages, but it has become a long-standing shortcoming that is difficult to correct. "
"The New Deal is like this. Some problems will always pop up in nooks and crannies. So in order to find ways to solve the problems, the New Deal cannot be afraid of problems. The most terrifying thing is that it does not have the courage to face these problems, or even muddle through. Then The New Deal is bound to be a tree without roots and water without a source. "
"In the third year of Wanli's banquet, the teacher said that when the emperor of the Northern and Southern Song Dynasties came to Huizi and the banknote method could not be consistent, he said to me: The country has been lost. Da Xin, people are suspicious, so why should they be afraid and afraid to fight?"
"I deeply agree. Today, when I read what the teacher said, I always see it new and understand it, yes. , the country has lost its great faith. When people face the imperial decree, they are immediately confused. How can you blame the people for being afraid of giving in and not accepting those Jiaozi and Huizi who are too thin? How can you blame the people? I don’t want to fight for my country.”
"If the Shanxi volunteers really have some means, even if they have a little trust in the imperial court, why would they go outside the Great Wall and become the minions of the Northern Captives?"
"Yu Shuai, I don't know soldiers, so forgive these volunteers. , Will it have a negative impact on military law and discipline? "
When Zhu Yijun saw Dong Yiyuan's memorial, the first person who came to mind was Chen Zhu and Chen Dazhuang, who had already gone to Nagasaki. In that situation, Chen Dazhuang was still willing to trust Zhu Yijun, the emperor. The country had lost great trust and people were suspicious. How entangled was Chen Dazhuang?
Fortunately, Zhu Yijun really fed Kong Shangxian's son Kong Yinlin to the dogs, and he lived up to Chen Dazhuang's expectations. Most of these Shanxi volunteers no longer have any expectations for the imperial court. They are destined to subjugate the country. Zhu Yijun must handle the signal appropriately.
Yu Dayou came out of the squad and bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty's good conduct will not affect military discipline and law. On the contrary, the army will definitely be invigorated."
"But there has been a rebellion, I am so privately sorry. , Compassion does not control the army, my move is suspected of being a woman's kindness, will it really not affect the morale of the soldiers and military law?" Zhu Yijun asked still somewhat unsure. "No." Yu Dayou bowed his head and said: "The volunteers are not soldiers in the army. They are just desperate civilians. They are both fallen people in the world, so they naturally feel the same. As for Ci, who does not command troops, they mostly march and fight."
< br>
"That's it." Zhu Yijun understood Yu Dayou's reasoning. Although the rebel soldiers had the name of soldiers, they were similar to the Xiang army that resettled the refugees in the Song Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty had been promoting civil and military affairs for a long time. The situation of the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty and these volunteers were very different. The soldiers robbed the volunteers of their food, but their food was robbed. They could only harm each other, feel the same pain and empathize with each other.
"Don't talk about the volunteers, it's just me. After staying in the dark for a long time, I am always afraid that the sun will not rise after it goes down." Zhu Yijun said with deep feeling.
This is true for the emperor, and why not the people of Ming Dynasty?
When we are in darkness, how can we look at the horizon with hope and hope for that ray of light that will illuminate the world?
If you want to say that the Ming Emperor was violent, but these volunteers were forgiven by the emperor, His Majesty made it very clear that he used non-criminal justice to forgive these volunteers. To say that the Ming Emperor was benevolent, The Confucius Mansion in Yanzhou stayed in the prison and was in panic all day long.
Whether the emperor is benevolent or not depends on the person. The world has been trapped in annexation for a long time.
"From now on, towns will no longer deduct rations from volunteers." Zeng Shengwu said very accurately.
The court discussion is still continuing. Lu Tiaoyang led the six ministries to discuss the recent affairs of the country one by one. The state affairs are proceeding in an orderly manner.
After the court meeting, King Lu Zhu Yili started giving daily lectures. Zhu Yijun taught in person. Zhu Yili really didn't dare to doze off and studied very seriously.
"Brother, why do romance novels always say who will come and give their names?" Zhu Yixi raised a very strange question. He said slightly confused: "Between the army and the Ming Dynasty, Generals rarely have such a one-on-one situation."
"Um...does Feng Daban know?" Zhu Yijun was stunned and asked himself Feng Bao.
Feng Bao was stunned for a moment and looked at Zhang Hong. Zhang Hong also shook his head blankly. His Highness Prince Lu's question was indeed a bit strange.
Soon Zhang Hong sent Xiao Huangmen to the cabinet to inquire. Several ministers in the cabinet, Lu Tiaoyang, Wang Chonggu, Wang Guangguang, and Ma Ziqiang, all looked at each other in confusion. They did not know the answer to this question. I quickly went to ask the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Rites.
It wasn't until after the emperor had lunch that Xiao Huangmen reported the reason.
Zhang Hong bowed his head and said: "His Royal Highness, King Lu, the reason for this is to record merit in the army. The name of the general's head must be asked. If someone beheads the opponent's general, his name must be registered. If you don't know, His merits were not recorded, and as time went on, the army was fighting, and everyone had to ask for his name, who the general was, and he said this. "
Zhang Hong perfectly solved King Lu's problem. Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Hong and asked with a frown: "I feel something is wrong. Zhang Hong, please go to the Ministry of War again and ask if this is the case for all the first-level merit records in our Ming Dynasty?"
< br>Zhu Yijun always felt a little strange, but he couldn't tell what was strange, so he asked Zhang Hong to ask.
Soon, Zhu Yijun got the answer. Since the second year of Zhengtong, the name of the thief must be recorded when recording first-level merit. At the beginning, it was just a random one, mainly military generals, but later it came During the reign of Emperor Xiaozong, there had to be evidence such as the other party's letter card. This also explains a very interesting question, why since Emperor Xiaozong, the Ming Dynasty formation killed hundreds of people in one battle, but the formation could only kill hundreds of people.
How many bandits like Beilu, Japanese pirates, and Dongyi can have something to prove their identity?
Every person must have a letter of identification on their head. The reason for this is also very simple, to prevent killing good people and taking credit for their merits.
Who is right and who is wrong? There is no right or wrong. There is a huge flaw in the system design of Shou Ling Gong.
"Wen and Wu are prosperous." Zhu Yijun got on his horse and prepared to go to Beida camp to parade the military horses. He finally knew why when Hou Yuzhao proposed meritorious service, the generals and deputy generals of the nine towns unanimously agreed. Merit finally formed the fifth grade merit card.
War? Even if you win, you won’t get any rewards!
When the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty went to Beidaying, Wang Chonggu left the Yamen of the Ministry of Justice and went out of Xizhimen. This time he did not go to the woolen official factory on the bank of the Yongding River, but went to the Yicheng Bofu in Xishan. He wanted to discuss something with Zhang Juzheng.
"Dad, do we really want to go to Yicheng's Mansion?" Wang Qian said with concern.
"Go! I have business with him, what are you afraid of? What is there to be afraid of? I have state affairs to see Zhang Juzheng, don't be afraid!" Wang Chonggu's voice was so loud that the driver outside the car heard it.
Wang Qian curled his lips and said in a low voice: "If you are really not afraid, why are you shouting so loudly?"
Wang Chonggu immediately became angry, and he slapped Wang Chonggu in the face. On Qian's forehead, he said angrily: "I, I, I, I am getting older and my voice is softer. I can't hear it, so I speak loudly!"
"We are not sheep. You can't even hide in the tiger's mouth on weekdays, so what are you going to do in Yicheng County, Xishan?" Wang Qian said helplessly. He knew very well that he was a villain, like Zhang Juzheng and Hai Rui. People can't be seen without being seen, plots and tricks don't work, they have lost their biggest support, and they are very passive.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I have business with Zhang Juzheng, business!" Wang Chonggu was furious.
Wang Qian pointed behind him and said: "What are you preparing two carts of gifts for?"
"I have them. I will give them to whomever I want. Well, actually, I'm afraid "Zhang Juzheng won't open the door for us." Wang Chonggu was adamant at first. After saying a few words, he said with some lack of confidence. There was no reason for Zhang Juzheng to open the door for him. There was no reason for him to see him. There was a high chance that he would be rejected. With so much money, Gifts are just a stepping stone.
"Does Mr. Taiyue still accept gifts now?" Wang Qian said helplessly.
Wang Chonggu spread his hands and said helplessly: "I haven't accepted it for a long time, but there are some things I have to ask him, otherwise I won't be able to make up my mind."
Wang Chonggu arrived in Xitucheng and arrived at the Yicheng Bo's Mansion. , the concierge of Yicheng Bo's Mansion received the invitation, You Qi immediately went to Wenchang Pavilion to report Zhang Juzheng, and then ran to the door in a hurry, saying with a smile on his face: "Wang Cifu, wait a moment, my husband has a guest now, he will be there soon Come on, as for the gift, sir, it’s not necessary. Wang Cifu will just take it back. Your Majesty’s gift is enough.” , Zhang Juzheng was willing to see him, and even went out to greet him in person, without even giving gifts, at least it was not a sheep falling into a tiger's mouth.
"Welcome distinguished guests to the door, but those who are far away are welcome." Zhang Juzheng appeared in front of the door with a few people. Gao Gong and Wang Zhigao also happened to be at the house. Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng had a very good personal relationship, and Wang Zhigao and Zhang Juzheng's in-laws.
"Hey, Mr. Yicheng is so polite." Wang Chonggu hurried to greet him. Zhang Juzheng is indeed without an official and has only one high-ranking earl. But when he reaches the position of a cabinet minister, they all belong to the emperor's staff. This power depends entirely on your closeness to Your Majesty. Your Majesty comes to Yicheng Bo in Xishan on the 23rd of every month. Who else in the world has such treatment?
Whoever dares to say that Zhang Juzheng has completely lost his power is stupid.
Wang Chonggu arrived at Wenchang Pavilion. After greetings, Wang Chonggu explained the purpose of his visit. He thought for a long time before saying: "I have a memorial. I don't know whether I should submit it. I also asked Uncle Yicheng to give it to me. "
"On the Supervisory Officers in the Song Dynasty".
Zhang Juzheng opened it and looked at it for a long time, and then handed the memorial to Gao Gong and Wang Zhigao.
The supervisory officer literally means the official who supervises the activities. The supervision activities in the Song Dynasty are mainly divided into four categories.
The first category is the production institutions of government-run agricultural, mulberry and animal husbandry handicraft workshops, such as Guanzhuang, Tuntian Wu, Ying Tian Wu, Mu Sheng Racecourse, Wensi Yuan, Du Workshop, Keng Smelting Factory and other supervisory services.
The second category is the government-run money business, such as cargo handling, market transactions, pawnshops (pawnshops), handover affairs, meeting affairs, money introduction affairs, papermaking affairs, and coinage supervision. Wait for the supervisor.
The third category is the government-run trading houses, government-run salt works, rice shops, wine shops, tea farms, alum mills, market transactions, stacking yards, charcoal yards, etc.
The fourth category is the construction category, such as various lumber factories, shipyards, warehouses, etc.
The chief officials of these four major types of institutions are all called supervisors. Unlike the Ming Dynasty, which was so poor that they owed salaries and stipends and used internal and state funds to beg for each other, the Song court had a very complete grassroots organization in financial affairs. This also ensured the stability of the court's income. It was not until Jia Sidao came to power in the late Southern Song Dynasty that the financial pressure on the Song court began to increase.
After Su Shi’s Wutai Poetry Case broke out, Su Che was affected and was demoted to Junzhou, where he worked as a salt and wine tax supervisor. Su Che was a very talented person, and he quickly got to know him in Junzhou. Business, and then except for salt and wine, all issues related to financial affairs such as making money and negotiating goods were under Su Che's control.
When Su Shi passed by Junzhou, he wanted to see Su Che. Because Su Che was too busy, Su Shi even wrote a poem to mock Su Che: I would rather know that I am an official, and I will be miserable and boiled.
I knew you, Su Che, were an official, but I thought you were a fish seller in the market.
Su Che lent the money he spent to buy a house to Su Shi, and was also implicated by Su Shi. His life in Junzhou was: during the day, he would sit in the city selling salt, selling wine, collecting taxes, and interacting with the city people. He strives to find a ruler for self-efficacy; when he returns home in the evening, exhausted, he often falls asleep without knowing the end of the night.
Su Che served as this supervisor.
What Wang Chonggu meant was whether Ming Dynasty could also copy this set and use it.
“It’s just nonsense!” After reading the memorial, Gao Gong sternly criticized Wang Chonggu. Wang Chonggu and Gao Gong could be said to have the same spirit. When Gao Gong was the first assistant, he protected the Jin Party. It is also the biggest stain on the country's high status.
After reading Wang Chonggu's memorial, Gao Gong was very angry.
Wang Chonggu said sternly: "Xinzheng Gong, please be patient and don't be so hasty in drawing conclusions."
"Hey! In the late Northern Song Dynasty, a pound of coal sold for two hundred cents, you are an official I have already made enough money to make money for the Woolen Official Factory and Xishan Coal Bureau, so I want to make more money? Wang Chonggu, don’t be too greedy, aren’t you afraid of dying?” Gao Gong said still very dissatisfied.
Wang Qian was not happy when he heard this. Gao Gong and Wang Chong had old ties, but Wang Qian did not. He argued loudly: "Xin Zheng Gong! You must speak with conscience. Our official woolen cloth factory does I got the money, but it was your Majesty’s reward! Our family from Xishan Coal Bureau doesn’t take any money from us, so don’t blame others for their innocence!”
“Okay, stop arguing.” He was a troublemaker, but he couldn't persuade him at all. Gao Gong and Wang Qian were still arguing.
After all, there was only one peacemaker like Wan Shihe who could speak to all aspects. The two of them had a heated argument. Wang Chonggu did not reprimand his son and allowed his son to quarrel with Gao Gong.
You can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately.
The current deputy minister of the dynasty is Wang Chonggu!
Zhang Juzheng read the memorial again, shook his head at the noise and said, "Stop for a moment, we'll just make another noise later. Wang Cifu, in my opinion, it's feasible."
Please give me a monthly ticket, ow! ! ! ! ! ! ! It’s the end of the month, hand over all your monthly tickets! ! ! ! ! Ouch! ! ! ! ! !
