Chapter 1539 Suzhou
Zhang Juzheng pondered silently, sighed for a while and said: "You are right. But I stick to my ideal."

"This is the problem!" Luo Xin said calmly: "Ge Shouli also insisted on his ideals."

"So..." Zhang Juzheng said bitterly: "My troubles in the household department will continue, will it last for a long time?"

"Probably." Luo Xin nodded.

Both of them stopped talking, thinking about their own things.

the next day.

Xu Jie continued to hold cabinet meetings, but Luo Xin did not attend.Instead, they began to prepare to leave for the south.He went to the south as an imperial envoy and envoy.

The identity of the imperial envoy is the governor of all military and political affairs in the south, and the identity of the envoy is to contact the vassal state and the Huaxia state.On behalf of the country as an envoy.

Day three.

Luo Xin took a thousand imperial troops and a hundred royal guards and set off for the south.

Five days later.

When Luo Xin arrived in Suzhou, he was welcomed into the Governor's Mansion by Yu Dayou, the governor of Suzhou.

After the banquet, everyone else left, the banquet was also withdrawn, the door of the lobby was closed, and there were guards outside.Only Luo Xin and Yu Dayou were left in the lobby.Yu Dayou said worriedly:
"My lord, the situation is worrisome now! No matter if the fleet of the Western feudal kingdom wins or the fleet of the Huaxia Kingdom wins, they are likely to swell up and want to get their hands on our Ming Dynasty."

Luo Xin waved his hand and said, "General Yu, don't take the matter too seriously. We have been in contact with Huaxia Kingdom, and the relationship has been very friendly these years. What we need to do now is to stabilize this relationship and continue it Of course, after this war, I, Ming, should have a certain inclination towards the navy and develop the navy. In the future, we must go out and sail the sea, and it is impossible to be passively beaten on land all the time."

When Yu Dayou heard that Luo Xin had the idea of ​​discovering the navy, he couldn't help being overjoyed.You must know that Luo Xin also had the idea of ​​developing the navy, and the fact that the navy can develop to such a degree now has a certain relationship with Luo Xin.

However, at that time, Luo Xin had not entered the cabinet after all, and was just a small person.

It's different now.

Luo Xin is a cabinet scholar, and among the six members of the cabinet, he is not the last one, but the fifth one.Although Yu Dayou is far away in Suzhou, he is also very concerned about the imperial court.

not to mention……

Although Yu Dayou did not become Luo Xin's confidant, he also stated that he stood in Luo Xin's camp.How could he not care about Luo Xin's affairs in the capital?
From the news he got, he was able to analyze that both Zhang Juzheng and Ma Fang were in trouble, and the money shortage was not easy to solve.If it can't be solved, Zhang Juzheng will not be able to manage politics for three years. Although he is a cabinet scholar, he can only do the job of a secretary.With these three years, the gap between Luo Xin and Zhang Juzheng will become a chasm.In other words, at the very least, Luo Xin's fifth position in the cabinet is secured.

Luo Xin must be able to do it if he said that he wanted to be inclined to the navy as a cabinet scholar.And when Yu Dayou was excited, Luo Xin continued to speak:

"However, if you want the imperial court to have money to favor the navy, you must solve the problem of the Shibu Division as soon as possible, and if you want to solve the problem of the Shibu Division, you must first solve the war at sea."

"That's right!" Yu Dayou said: "My lord, but how to solve it?"

Luo Xin smiled and said: "Didn't I already say that? Over the years, the relationship between our Daming and Huaxia Kingdom has been good. Even the order at sea is jointly managed by our Daming Navy and the Huaxia National Navy. Presumably General Yu Can you contact someone from Huaxia Kingdom?"

"That's fine, what do you want to do, my lord?"

"I want to talk to them. Since their Huaxia Kingdom can't win this war in the shortest possible time, let us, Ming Dynasty, also contribute."

"My lord means..." Yu Dayou's eyes lit up immediately, and then they dimmed again. "My lord, you may not understand our Daming navy. Compared with them, we are a bit behind."

"I know we are behind, and it is precisely because we are behind that we must participate in such a war, let our navy realize the gap, and the real war is the best way for us to understand each other and ourselves The timing also lets us know where we should work.”

"But..." Yu Dayou hesitated, "He may not be willing to join forces with us, maybe what he wants is to get his hands on Daming after this victory."

"So..." Luo Xin bent his fingers and tapped the armrest of the chair: "We need to talk to them, and we need to gain time for our Daming Navy to develop. You can contact them and confirm a time and place. I will personally Talk to them."

"Okay!" Yu Dayou nodded his head.

Yu Dayou needed time to contact, so Luo Xin was free.In fact, Luo Xin had already contacted Luo Sheng through Wang Cuiqiao.What is waiting now is just the superficial procedure that Yu Dayou has gone through.Therefore, Luo Xin was really free, and when he had time, he held a few receptions, including literary meetings with scholars from all over the south, and naturally there were also receptions with the Chamber of Commerce headed by the Lu family.

He greets and sees him off every day in Suzhou, living a happy life, but there are waves in the capital.

The cabinet has been impeached!

And Luo Xin is also being impeached.

why?
The introduction was still the shortage of money, which aroused those old stubborn people who had the same idea as Xu Jie. Xu Jie did not agree with the method of a whip, but was secretly discussed by Zhang Juzheng and Luo Xin. Zhang Juzheng handed a whip to Luo Xin. It was up to Luo Xin to persuade Gao Gong, and finally Luo Xin charged, Gao Gong made the decision, and the entire Gao Party launched an attack.In this situation, Xu Jie had no choice but to agree to the pilot.Then the trial was successful.

but……

Unexpectedly, when it was promoted nationwide, it encountered a shortage of money.The problems caused by the money shortage then snowballed, getting bigger and bigger.

Zhang Juzheng's idea of ​​issuing new banknotes was also killed by Luo Xin in the cradle, and then there was a possibility of war between the North and the South, the mutual market and the Shibo Department stopped, and there were financial problems in the Ming Dynasty.

So many problems added together, the effect is huge.

Many old thought officials like Xu Jie couldn't sit still. In their view, all this was caused by a whip.So they started impeaching a whip like crazy.

Naturally, Luo Xin and Gao Gong will bear the brunt of impeachment, but Xu Jie, as the chief minister of the cabinet, will naturally suffer the same impeachment.And Ma Fang and Zhang Ju are the specific implementers of the whip, and they will be impeached even more.In this way, Yan Na was left in the cabinet, and the impeachment was conveniently carried out. Anyway, you Yan Na didn't object to a whip at the beginning, didn't you agree with it?
