The Reborn Duke of Ming Dynasty

Talk about these few days.Zhang Fan was really proud of himself.For in this day and age.Fudge two foreigners.Zhang Fan felt very relieved.I still remember that day.When they passed a fireworks willow alley.The two saw that there were many colorfully decorated attics inside.Many beautiful girls with heavy makeup are smiling at the door when welcoming guests.The two also asked Zhang Fan curiously.No matter where in this era, there will be such women who sell their bodies.Although Daming has been around since the founding of the country.Zhu Yuanzhang ordered that such romantic places be strictly prohibited.But even the imperial court has its own Jiaofang Division.then.This prohibition clause is the least followed today.

Zhang Fan naturally knows the trend of the world in this regard.But it's not easy to directly explain their identities.I had to tell the two of them that this is a restaurant in tactful English.These women greet guests at the door.It can be regarded as... a practitioner in the service industry.

Although Joanna, who is a woman, knows.But he didn't understand what Zhang Fan meant.It was Richard.After all, he is a man.Naturally, in the flashy world of Europe today.When Zhang Fan said this, he understood what business these women were doing.But after he told Joanna about this.Joanna also seemed to be surprised.It's just that the two of them have different thoughts.After all, all these prostitutes in front of the two of them are dressed in red and green.And according to Zhang Fan.Most of those so-called top cards are proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.If ordinary people do not have money and status.It is also difficult to see the first glance.These experiences allowed the two to see the prosperity of the Eastern Empire from one side.

However, Zhang Fan also had calculations in his heart.After all, it is just to show the prosperous side.Maybe now the two can sigh.But after the two went back, they spread the knowledge here.Those European careerists must be more attached to this rich land.Zhang Fan is now thinking of a way.It is also necessary to show the two of them the military might and national power of Ming Dynasty.It's also good to make them feel awe.

However, Zhang Fan, who was thinking about how to do this, now stopped what he was doing.Because of the news from the capital.Gao Gong started to attack Xu Jie.But Zhang Fan only knows a rough idea now.I don't know the specific situation.Because today's DPRK and China are in chaos because of this matter.

Let's talk about the beginning of this mess.It happened exactly when Feng Bao took away Gao Gong's memorial to impeach Xu Jie.that day.Feng Bao took the memorial privately from the Supervisor of Rites.He just walked.After dashing back, he returned to the Supervisor of Rituals.Originally, he was about to present the notebook.But I can't find it anywhere.In a hurry.He rushed to call the little eunuch under his command to ask if they put it away when they cleaned it.The little eunuch replied that it had not been cleaned today.This time he rushed and became anxious.This memorial was to be presented to Long Qing alone.If someone else saw it.The rush is afraid of causing trouble.

At this moment.A young eunuch rushing to his confidant came to report.Said that Feng Bao had just been here.It was also what Dash had him staring at.After all, Feng Bao knew that Feng Bao would come here every day to trouble him.Dash to hear what he said.Immediately tense up.If it is true that Feng Bao saw this booklet and took it away and presented it to Long Qing.This matter is troublesome.Not to mention that Feng Bao would beat Long Qing upside down.Use this excerpt to blame Gao Gong.Even dashing himself is in trouble.originally.This notebook was written by Gao Gong.It had absolutely nothing to do with his dashing.But no one in the court knew that Meng Chong became the eunuch in charge of the supervisor of ceremonies through the recommendation of Gao Gong.And although Gao Gong is the chief assistant of the cabinet.However, he still has to abide by the procedures for writing the booklet.Now, he handed the booklet directly to Meng Chong.The following people have no news at all.How did this prevent Long Qing from knowing that his dash had something to do with Gao Gong.

Think about it.I couldn't help but burst into a cold sweat when I rushed.He hasn't been this palm print eunuch for long.Now it's in big trouble.In case something happens.It's not just the embarrassment of his early retirement.If it doesn't work out, there will be a murderous disaster.This matter is not as simple as saying that the two of them framed Xu Jie.If you really check it out.The two must be charged with collusion between the inner court and the outer court.This has been one of the most taboo things in the royal family since ancient times.

Dashing in shock, he hurriedly ordered someone to prepare a car and head to Gao Gong's mansion.Tell him everything.Gao Gong was shocked when he heard that.Although there is nothing on the face.But in my heart, I can't wait to stab the dead eunuch in front of me with a knife right now.It's just that Gao Gong is not a reckless person.Things are happening now.It would not help to blame Dash, or even kill him.What's more, Gao Gong had to rely on Dash's current rights to remedy this matter.

I thought about it for a while.Gao Gong made up his mind.He no longer uses impeachment, which he thinks is a slightly "moderate" way.Instead, he chose to fire directly at the court.For this matter.Gao Gong was completely prepared.He rewrote a scathing account of impeachment against Xu Jie for occupying the land.And write down all the "true evidence" collected by his subordinates.Prepare to launch an attack in the early morning of the second day.

Speaking of which, Long Qing had learned about Gao Gong's plan from the brochure submitted by Feng Bao yesterday.After returning, Long Qing also recovered from the anger he had just heard about the news.Much calmer.For him who sat on the throne of the emperor as a never-satisfied King Yu.I'm really used to it.The former him was indeed influenced by the incident brought by Feng Bao about corrupt officials in the south of the Yangtze River.That's why he was angry at Gao Gong's wanton framing of Xu Jie.But when he calmed down, he felt that this was normal.But Long Qing suddenly thought of something else.Although Feng Bao only mentioned it once.But he still noticed.That's about dashing.

I said it before.Collusion between the inner court and the outer court officials is a royal taboo.Long Qing is the Son of Heaven.Naturally, it is inevitable to have such thoughts.But this Ming Dynasty is not without precedent.Like Liu Jin in Wuzong's year.And Yan Song when Longqing was his father.These are precedents.It exists even now.Long Qing understood very well.Now Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao are colluding together.It may be a little serious to say the word "collusion".Long Qing understood that Feng Bao was more greedy.Zhang Juzheng was just flattering him.And more importantly.Long Qing believed in Zhang Juzheng.Moreover, he is more indulgent to the eunuch's general desire to be petty and cheap.

But now Gao Gong and Dang Chong also had this situation.Long Qing couldn't help feeling a little upset.After all, how many people like Zhang Juzheng are there in the world.It's just that Gao Gong was reinstated and rejoined the cabinet only half a year ago.Even if he is the current emperor.The whole world is his.He still can't dismiss Gao Gong easily.Even today's Gao Gong committed a royal taboo.Ke Longqing is different from other emperors in that he likes to do the opposite.Besides, he also knew that the collusion between Gao Gong and Dao Chong was just to consolidate his power and attack his political opponents.Not for treason.However, no matter how magnanimous Long Qing was, he was still a lonely emperor.So this matter naturally left a knot in his heart.

Morning of the second day.Because of the matter in his heart, Long Qing couldn't help but look at Gao Gong more.I found that he was still very upright as before.It's just that he didn't know if it was the things accumulated in Long Qing's heart or what.He found that Gao Gong's face that revealed boldness in the past seemed to be shining with insidious and cunning meaning.

I don't know if he really answered what Long Qing thought in his heart.When the eunuch next to him yelled the words "If there is something to do, go to court if there is nothing to do" for the last time.Gao Gong stood up.

See Gao Gong stand up.The officials below naturally knew that something important was about to happen.It's just that there is no one in the court who is worthy of attack.Most have been defeated by Gao Gong.Only Zhang Juzheng was left, and he lived in peace with him now.The ministers couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

Although Zhang Juzheng didn't get the news.But I can guess a little bit.He looked at Gao Gong quite nervously.I'm afraid he really did it for that.And the aloof Long Qing already understood what he was going to say.My heart couldn't help but become more complicated.

"I have something to play." Gao Gong said.Has come to the center of the hall.He knelt down towards Long Qing.

"Aiqing, let's go. It's okay to say what's the matter." Long Qing said listlessly.There was some disappointment in his tone.

Gao Gong had heard something from Long Qing's words.It's just that his bold personality has been smoothed over the years.It's just that the inborn attachment has always existed.Otherwise, he wouldn't have known that Long Qing had figured this out.Still desperately wanting to make Xu Jie, who is always against him, come to a miserable end.

"Your Majesty." Gao Gong said calmly. "Your Majesty. Three months ago. Your Majesty ordered Yingtian Governor Hai Rui to conduct a thorough investigation of Jiangnan tycoons who forcibly seized the people's fields. The matter of not paying the court tax has now been resolved." He was not in a hurry to tell the matter.

"Is that so? How do you say it?" Long Qing had always been somewhat lacking in interest.

"A total of more than [-] strong households were investigated and dealt with in various places in the south of the Yangtze River. Nearly a thousand hectares of fertile land were confiscated. Now all of them have been confiscated by Hai Rui. They have been handed over to those former farm laborers." Gao Gong said.

"This is a good thing." Long Qing said casually. "Ai Qing, do you think so?" Long Qing wanted to divert attention.The view swooned over the matter.

The officials below immediately echoed Long Qing's words and flattered them.What "the emperor is wise and mighty". "Your Majesty's blessings are equal to the sky" and so on.

Gao Gong naturally knew what Long Qing meant.It's just how could he let Long Qing succeed.He hurriedly increased his voice: "But." Seeing that the officials were shocked by his voice.They stopped talking but looked at him together.Gao Gong is very satisfied. "Your Majesty. However, there was a family that occupied dozens of hectares for two days. They were very stubborn. They obstructed Hai Rui's men many times. What happened later. Before Mr. Hai's men arrived, they privately distributed the land under their name. To farm laborers. To avoid thorough investigation by the imperial court."

As soon as the ministers heard it, they immediately discussed it.Although they didn't know who Gao Gong was talking about.But since it can be said from the high arch.There must be a reason for this.Zhang Juzheng naturally knew what Gao Gong was going to say next.It's just that he is currently hindered by his relationship with Xu Jie.I can't help even if I want to.Li Chunfang, who grew up beside Zhang Juzheng, was like an old monk with a pure heart and asceticism.It's just that his mind is very bright.He looked at Zhang Juzheng's appearance.I also understood a little bit in my heart.

"Since that family distributed the land to the farm laborers, those farm laborers can be regarded as having their own land. The purpose of the court has been achieved. According to my intention, let's forget about this matter." Long Qing still planned to fool around past.

"Your Majesty, this trend must not last long. If those tyrants find out, they will be even more confident." Gao Gong would not let this opportunity go.Said immediately. "What's more, the head of this family has a special status. It really shouldn't be exposed."

The ministers heard this.They started talking again.They didn't know which court official provoked Gao Gong again.Do this with a high arch.

Long Qing originally wanted to forgive Gao Gong, but now Gao Gong repeatedly persecuted him.He also became a little impatient.But now Gao Gong's words have reached this point.If he doesn't speak again, it will be a bit bad.

"Really. Who is that family?" In desperation.Long Qing had no choice but to say so.

"It was the chief assistant of my cabinet in the past. Now Xu Ge is the old man who has returned to his hometown." Gao Gong said with his head held high.Not to mention how loud the voice is.

nature.The shock that these words brought to the hall was also proportional to the sound of Gao Gong.When the officials heard this sentence, they immediately exploded.They began to discuss in whispers.The only ones who were not surprised were Long Qing, Zhang Juzheng, Li Chunfang, Gao Gong and Guo Pu.Of course, the first three were a little helpless.The latter two looked smug.

Long Qing listened to the officials below whispering like flies.My heart is even more irritable.He opened his mouth and said: "Ge Lao is the elder of the two dynasties. All the ministers in the cabinet. There must be some misunderstandings in this matter. According to my intention, we should investigate clearly. We will discuss it later." Finish.Long Qing wanted to retreat and leave.

How could Gao Gong let it go.He hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I also know that this matter is very involved. I also made some investigations before I made a statement." As he spoke, he took out two things from his pocket and presented them in front of Long Qing.Said. "This is the minister's memorial. In addition, there are those farm laborers who used to work in the fields under the name of the old man. It shows the evidence of the long-term exploitation of these farm laborers by the old man's family."

As soon as this is said.The commotion below became even more fierce.Anyone with a discerning eye can naturally see that Gao Gong must have made preparations.I just didn't expect him to do such a great job.

Long Qing listened.I was really annoyed to the extreme.I don't want to be entangled.Said: "You hand over the booklet. I want to have a look at it before making any comments." Finished.Don't do anything more.Get up and want to go to the harem.

Long Qing left for a long time.Only then did the eunuchs in the palace come back to their senses and loudly announce their retreat.Watching Long Qing leave angrily.Gao Gong is very proud.As if he had won the battle.The courtiers below also began to discuss loudly.Zhang Juzheng was a little unhappy because of his mentor.But Li Chunfang saw the situation clearly.He looked in the direction Long Qing left.When he turned his head to look at Gao Gong, there was a hint of pity in his eyes.
