7. White hemp is announced

When the emperor saw Gao Yue's expression, he asked, "What do you think about this?"

Gao Yue paused, and then made a comment to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I have said before that it is difficult to transfer the military forces in Lingnan and the guest troops in the southwest to go, as long as Du Lingnan makes proper plans, only barbarian thieves can do anything. So the court does not need to be alarmed, and wait for news from Du Lingnan."

"Then Gao Qing means that there is no need to replace Du You."

"I have never said that, but I just said that I will wait for the news of Lingnan for a while. If Your Majesty rashly changes the governors of the Five Prefectures of Lingnan, and it is also time for Xiyuan and Huangdong Barbarians to attack, I am afraid that the people will be in panic, so I will wait until the situation is rough and it will not be too late to discuss the election of the people."

The emperor thought to himself that Gao Yue, you are cunning enough. You are obviously protecting Du You, but you are speaking up very well, and you also threw the pot back to me.

However, the emperor generally agreed with Gao Yue's plan. Who told Du You to get sea salt, sugar and bribery now can get a lot of money? If Zheng Feng leaves, I am not worried about Zheng Wenming's character at all, but what I am worried about is that Zheng's character is so good!

Wei Gao, who was next to him, took the opportunity to make a comment: "The best strategy for Du Lingnan is to use barbarians to control barbarians. If necessary, Xichuan and Xingyuan can support Du Lingnan a batch of divine thunder guns, lead balls and gunpowder, which is the most efficient and the most beneficial to do things."

So that's what happened, Du You made a large-scale arming of other liberals who were loyal to the court, Li Man, to fight against the rebellious Huang Shaoqing.

So the emperor quickly recognized the two's plans.

Just as he was about to finish the question, Gao Yue strongly recommended Zheng Zhi, saying that Zheng had presided over the tribute before, and that everything was wrong. He was framed by Dou Shen and was released as the governor of Yuezhou. Now that Dou Shen deserves the crimes of the entire clan, the court even asked His Majesty to be the Fujian Observer when he was employed, so that it would be convenient for Du You to assist each other in Lingnan.

"I have the intention to be civilized, polite and pure."

After Gao Yue and Wei Gao retreated, the emperor moved to the bathroom hall, where the inner Privy Councilor Yin Zhizhen and the outer Privy Councilor Jiao Xiu were all standing in the room, saying that they would submit the secret report to His Majesty.

The internal and external Privy Councilors are actually the official group of the Daming Palace, who are specifically responsible for the public security of the capital and the negotiations with the Jinzouyuan of all towns. Now the political affairs between the emperor and Fang Yue are no longer left the Censorate.

The secrets presented by Yin Zhizhen and Jiao Xin were exactly written by Gao Yue and Wei Gao instructed each to be in the Jinzou Academy in the capital.

These two people just discussed "business affairs" with the emperor in Zichen's palace.

In private, he was connected with the middle-level official and discussed "private affairs" with the emperor in a secret way.

Relying on the table table and rope bed, the emperor carefully looked at the two secrets and waved his hand. So the outer Privy Councilor Jiao Ying stepped forward and whispered to the emperor: "Everyone, Wei Lianshuai secretly paid 800,000 yuan this time, while Gao Jigong served 500,000 yuan. The Jinzhaoyuan of Xichuan and Xingyuan had already paid flying money in the Xiaohaichi Guesthouse in the capital and exchanged it. The Guesthouse immediately sent the money to everyone's Daying Qionglinku."

At this time, the emperor pretended to be a little shameful in front of these two middle-aged officials, and then touched his beard earnestly: "It's not that I'm greedy for the two Rongs to contribute, but you two have also seen it, Pingrong Road, Wuyou City, Longyou, Hehuang, and to the four towns of Anxi, annihilated tens of thousands of enemies and restored land for six or seven thousand miles. This merit is there. Do you think you should reward and be promoted?"

Yin Zhizhen and Jiao Xiu hurriedly said: "Ministers Wei and Gao are everyone's left arm and right wrist. Everyone rewards merits and do what they do. Who dares to object!"

The emperor then silenced with satisfaction, and then picked up the pen and wrote two lines of text on the imperial letter, then handed it to the two, and then said: "This matter is left to Wei Zhiyi, a scholar of the Hanlin Chengzhi, to go."

"Everyone, there is one more, General Xing and General Liu..." Yin Hejiao smiled again, and then delivered the document to the emperor.

It is marked on it that Xing Junya was the defensive envoy of Tongguan and Liu Haibin was the observation envoy of Jiangnan West Road. These two were the original generals of the Shence Army. However, they now think they are old and successful, so they are unhappy to continue to go to Helong to guard the border, and would rather return to Guanzhong and enjoy the rest of their retirement years.

Of course, the document also states that Xing Junya and Liu Haibin all paid 150,000 stag to the emperor in order to achieve this matter.

The emperor snorted coldly and asked Xing Junya and Liu Haibin when he was originally Bians, he was considered honest and could share the joys and sorrows with his soldiers. Where did he get so much money to pay for it? Could it be that he borrowed money? In addition, if you give me 150,000, I am afraid that if you two inside and outside Privy Councilors, you will also have to spend 100,000?

Yin Zhizhen and Jiao Xun knelt down and said nothing, nothing, I am waiting under everyone's eyes, how dare I do this?

The emperor did not continue to pursue the matter. He knew that Yin and Jiao were talking lies with their eyes open, but this kind of operation was normal. I would not give these middle-aged officials some sweetness. Who would ask for me or send me in the future?

There is no need to be petty with the eunuchs.

After nightfall, the bell of the Hanlin Bachelor's Academy at Yintai Gate suddenly rang.

Soon, Wei Zhiyi and Li Jifu, who were on duty, got up and started busy in front of the bookshelf, looking for the danhan and white hemp paper, and then the pen and ink balls.

The verbal task Li Jifu received was to draft a document for Wei Gao.

The meaning of the Zhongguan bringing the emperor was to merge Dongchuan and Xichuan and set it as the governor of Jiannan, and Wei Gao was the owner of Jingjie.

Li Jifu, who was sitting in front of the desk, looked bad. He knew that when Zichen Palace asked about it before, Gao Yue and Wei Gao went in together, and the battle between Weisong and Helong was also fought by Gao Yue and Wei Gao.

Since Wei Gao was able to monopolize the power of Jiannan, then Gao Yue...

"For everyone's imperial letter, please ask Mr. Wei to draft a decree to Baima, and use Gao Yue as the Minister of the Secretariat and the third rank to be the Secretary of the Central Committee to be the Secretary of the Central Committee." The Central Committee handed over the imperial letter written by the emperor and said to Wei Zhiyi with a smile.

The pen in Li Jifu's hand almost broke.

Then the Zhongguan added: "When the Jingnan Jiedushi King Cao died, Fan Ze, the former Shandong Dongdao Jiedushi, was appointed as the Jiangling Yin, the Jingnan Jiedushi, the former Minister of the Secretariat Dong Jin, the former Minister of the Central Secretariat, and the governor of Xiangzhou and the Shandong Dongdao Jiedushi."

When Dong Jin left the town, he wanted to make a seat for Gao Yue.

"Dong Jin was originally a prime minister who was a member of the food. Since he had become a minister of the Central Secretariat, it was enough. Now he happened to be in Xiangyang and could be granted the wise. Isn't that great?" Just now, the emperor openly said to the Privy Councilors inside and outside.

Because the emperor had indeed had enough of Dong Jin. When Jia Dan was writing, he would only say "I am the same as Jia Pushe". When Du Huangshang wrote, he would only say "I am the same as Du Menlang". When Lu Zhi was writing, he would only say "I am the same as Lu Menlang". When the three were different, he said "I am the same as the Holy Lord."

Every year, he had to give him a "tang seal" of 30,000 yuan, and he had to pay attention to the meals and meals under the Secretariat. Money was a trivial matter, but the emperor saw that he was not doing anything with money, which was really abominable.

He simply asked him to go to the east of Shandong to scrape the land for a few years and go to the elderly. He will never get tired of both the king and the ministers, which can be considered beneficial to others and oneself.

Wei Zhiyi was a little surprised. It seemed that Gao Yue also expressed his intention to resign as the governor of Xingyuan. There was another fierce personnel adjustment between the court and Fang Zhen. During this period, just drafting various edicts would be exhausted!
