Mingshi

Chapter 1547

Seeing that Xu Jie and Gao Gong were silent, Emperor Longqing said with a gloomy face: "If you can't do this, the chief and second assistants of the cabinet are too incompetent."

"The minister obeys the order!"

"What else is there, gentlemen?"

"Your Majesty!" Ma Fang said in a deep voice: "Three months are too early now, and I have no way to solve the money shortage. At the beginning, Lord Shoufu made a rule. If Master Zhang and I can't solve the money shortage If there is a problem, the minister will be demoted automatically, Mr. Zhang will not be able to manage politics, and can only study in the cabinet for three years.

Now that the minister has automatically descended to the post of Master Yan, I would like to ask His Majesty to order Master Zhang to study for three years. "

In fact, Ma Fang was suffocating. Xu Jie and Gao Gong went home. They were supposed to be the temporary leaders of the cabinet, but Emperor Longqing made Yan Na the leader.

Ok!

Even if this is a punishment for not solving the money shortage problem, why hasn't Zhang Juzheng been punished?

Why?
Just because he is a student of Xu Jie, the chief assistant of the cabinet?
Thinking of this, he was full of complaints against Gao Gong.

It's really a raging army, a raging nest.

The boss Gao Gong is too weak, Xu Jie can keep Zhang Juzheng, but you Gao Gong can't keep me?
If you can't keep your little brother, what kind of boss are you?

So, Ma Fang broke the jar today.And this can be regarded as a certificate of honor for Luo Xin.So, after he finished this sentence, he went on to say:

"And Your Majesty said that if Lord Luo really solves the southern war and the Shibo Division this time, he will be promoted to a higher rank. I am willing to rank behind Lord Luo."

Gao Gong was overjoyed, and cast an appreciative glance at Ma Fang.He didn't expect that Ma Fang had defected to Luo Xin in secret, but he thought that Ma Fang was sacrificing himself to make Zhang Juzheng idle for three years.Once Zhang Juzheng lost the right to speak in the cabinet for three years, he would have a lot more confidence in fighting with Xu Jie.

"What a man!"

"In order to help me fight Xu Jie, I even spared myself."

He didn't take into account that Luo Xin was promoted by one place, but he was ranked fourth in the cabinet.As for Yi Yan Na, a good old man, will the day when Luo Xin surpasses Yan Na and sit in third place be far behind?
He is now happy. Once Emperor Longqing agrees to ban Zhang Juzheng, he will be much more relaxed in the cabinet.

However, Zhang Juzheng's heart sank, and his heart was full of anger.

This anger was directed towards Ma Fang, and also towards Xu Jie!
Yes!

It was the anger directed at Xu Jie!
In his opinion, Xu Jie grabbed a whip this time and used it to attack Gao Gong, without considering him as a student at all.Completely treat him as a victim.

At this time, Xu Jie's face was as heavy as water. He had shot Zhang Juzheng, but he didn't want to seal up the gun in the warehouse.Once Zhang Juzheng was banned for three years, wouldn't it be a waste of his hard work to get Zhang Juzheng into the cabinet?

However, he knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion, and with Ma Fang fighting all over, everything was meaningless.

Sure enough, after hearing Ma Fang's words, Emperor Longqing nodded without hesitation and said:
"Zhang Juzheng will study for another three years!"

Zhang Juzheng's eyes turned red all of a sudden. He had struggled for many years and entered the cabinet, but he got this result and became a joke of the court. Does he have a future in the future?

Or is it a mistake to enter the cabinet with a special purpose?
Ma Fang is now ranked fourth in the cabinet, dropping one place. The news that Zhang Juzheng has been out of power for three years quickly spread to the court, and the court fell silent all of a sudden.Impeachment also died down.Because both Xu Jie and Gao Gong realized the seriousness of the problem.If the impeachment continues like this, I am afraid that both of them will leave the cabinet.

The most important thing is that everyone is now waiting for news from Luo Xin.

The situation now is the reverse of what it was before.

If Luo Xin fails, a whip will be invalidated immediately, because it means that the war is approaching and there will be financial problems in Ming Dynasty.At that time, everything had to be prepared for war, and everything was based on stability, and a whip was fine.

If Luo Xin succeeds, there is still a glimmer of hope for that whip.After all, the financial problem has been solved by nearly half.

Not bad!

Today, the Shibo Department's revenue accounts for nearly half of Ming's finances, and the remaining half is mostly from the original sources of Ming's finances, such as traditional land taxes, plus the northern mutual market.

Today, the traditional fiscal revenue has not been affected. Judging from the current year, there is no natural disaster in Ming Dynasty, so there should be no problem with traditional taxation. As long as Luo Xin solves the southern problem, even if the northern problem is not solved, it will suddenly let Daming In the military, I will not be attacked by the enemy, and I feel a lot better.More importantly, by solving the problem of the Shibo Department, Daming's finances will improve in an instant, and there will be absolutely no problem with the balance of payments.

This makes everything in Daming possible.

However, this does not mean that Xu Dang will let go of a whip.Because this is a heavyweight shell that hits high arches.It is also a sharp aspect of attacking Luo Xin.

Luo Xin has not been impeached now, that is because Luo Xin went to the south to do things for everyone.

Not bad!

In their view, Luo Xin is not doing things for the royal family, but for them.Because too many official families are deeply involved in the Shibo Department.As long as Luo Xin solves the problem of Shibosi, it means that a lot of money will flow into their family.If Luo Xin can't solve it, their loss is too great.

This is why no official impeached Luo Xin.

In the same way, this is also the reason why Xu Jie and Gao Gong obediently listened to Emperor Longqing's reprimand, returned to the cabinet, and suppressed their respective subordinates to impeach.

You can do it with the trend, but you can't do it against the trend.

How could Xu Jie and Gao Gong not understand this truth?

Therefore, Chaotang was unusually quiet, and all eyes turned to the southeast. They waited, waiting for Luo Xin's news.Whether it is Luo Xin's failure or success, the Xu party will launch a fierce attack.The attack at that time was not only aimed at Gao Gong, but also Luo Xin.

Because if Luo Xin succeeds, they don't need Luo Xin anymore, let's kill the donkey!You are no longer useful, and it is time to kick you out of the cabinet.If Luo Xin fails, let alone, there must be a pouring point for all the anger, and it also needs a scapegoat, Gao Gong and Luo Xin are good.

Who let a whip be initiated by the two of you?

However, Xu Jie and Gao Gong returned to the cabinet with very ugly expressions on their faces. Although they forced smiles, even fools could tell that they were in an extremely bad mood.
