Domineering Daming

"8000 million, 5000 million, try to send 1000 million this year, and see how much money this Jiangnan is short of..."

Zhu Xu whispered to himself.Most of Ming's economy is concentrated in Jiangnan. Jiangnan is short of silver. There is no way to calculate how much it is short of. It can only be tested slowly to fully activate Jiangnan's business, and we will make an estimate in the future.

Hai Lanzhu didn't speak the whole time, just quietly accompanied Zhu Xu.

In the past, Zhu Xu would definitely be bored and suffer from insomnia by himself, but with someone by his side, he felt extremely comfortable and did not feel insomnia.

"go to bed!"

Suddenly Zhu Xu picked up Hai Lanzhu and ran to the bed, laughing loudly.

"Blow the lamp, blow the lamp..." Hai Lanzhu blushed and shouted hastily.

Nothing to say all night until dawn.

Before Zhu Xu got up, Cao Wenzhao took the imperial decree, wore the military uniform of the general soldier, rode a horse, and led the soldiers, and went straight to Fang Kongxuan's mansion.

Fang Kongxuan looked at Cao Wenzhao who appeared suddenly, his expression was serious, his temples were throbbing, and countless thoughts were spinning in his heart.

And his son Fang Yizhi trembled all over and couldn't stand upright.

Cao Wenzhao looked at Fang Kongzhao, laughed loudly and said, "Your Majesty Fang, don't worry. I'm delivering an order today. Come, follow me to the governor's yamen. Governor Huang must be waiting."

Fang Kongxuan felt uneasy, the decree came so suddenly that he couldn't figure it out.

But he still had to follow Cao Wenzhao. Cao Wenzhao brought all the real elite soldiers. Of course, without these, he had to go.

Cao Wenzhao rode his horse and led Fang Kongxue quickly towards the Governor's Yamen.

Cao Wenzhao was very high-profile, passing through the city all the way, attracting countless eyes and speculations.

Huang Liji in the governor's yamen was frightened at the moment.

He was "invited" by someone sent by Cao Wenzhao, and his attitude was very good, but it was this "goodness" that made him uneasy.

Cao Wenzhao is a general, so it is strictly forbidden to meddle in government affairs, but if he really meddles in an open and aboveboard manner, it will be no small matter!

What's more, Cao Wenzhao is not a simple military general, he is an old man who lived in the emperor's residence, and is recognized as the emperor's number one confidant today!

He appeared so suddenly and directly, and participated in government affairs, no one dared to underestimate him.

"Your Excellency, Your Majesty, do you want to repeat the incident in Beizhili?" A councilor beside Huang Liji asked with a worried expression on his face.

The story of Beizhili has almost spread throughout Daming, and no one dares to be careless.

Huang Liji doesn't have the ability to think now, he is all thinking about Cao Wenzhao and the intention of the emperor behind him.

No one doubted the emperor's determination to reform, but he didn't understand why the emperor's will came so quickly, and what was the purpose?

Soon, Cao Wenzhao rushed into the Governor's Yamen with his soldiers, and when he saw Fang Kongxuan again, his expression changed drastically, and he suddenly had a strong bad premonition in his heart!

Cao Wenzhao played his best today, and naturally he wanted to show it to everyone in Nanzhili.

He waited for everyone in the governor's yamen of Jiangsu to kneel down, opened the imperial decree, and said in a deep voice: "We will accept this order... Governor of Jiangsu Huang Liji is deeply favored by my aunt and I, and I will not move forward... I will be removed from all official positions and put in prison for investigation... ...Kong Yan, the right party member of Jiangsu governor's yamen, is courageous, insightful, diligent and pragmatic.

Huang Liji's face turned pale, and there were big drops of cold sweat on his head.

He never thought that he would be dismissed and sent to prison just like that?Since Taizu founded Daming, has any governor been imprisoned without fault?

Was he... really imprisoned?

Fang Kongxuan was overjoyed, he wanted to wait for Xu Jie to come to turn around, but he didn't expect that instead of waiting for Xu Jie, he waited for the emperor's will!

Temporary governor!

This is for him to exercise the powers of the governor, and at the same time to show that he will be righted in a short time!

Chapter 675 Governor and Governor

Cao Wenzhao's prestige was firstly to swear the emperor's firm will to reform, secondly to support Fang Kongxuan, and thirdly to hope that this matter would spread quickly.

Fang Kongxuan was a little trembling, but also excitedly accepted the order.

Cao Wenzhao conveyed a few more words of Zhu Xu's instructions, and then strode away with his men and horses.

Fang Kongzhao looked at Cao Wenzhao's back, his chest heaved slightly, his eyes were a little red, and he said softly: "With such a wise and wise emperor, why worry about my Ming being unhappy!"

The chief secretary nodded, and immediately said: "My lord, taking this opportunity, some things will be easier to handle!"

Fang Kongzheng's expression moved slightly, he turned sharply and said: "Okay, send an order to summon the governor's yamen for a discussion!"

The imperial decree has just been issued, which means that his family is in full swing, and it is indeed better to do some things that he has never dared to do before others have reacted.

Huang Liji was dismissed and Fang Kongxuan took over. This sudden change caught the entire Yingtian Mansion by surprise.

I don't know how many people are worried, running around and asking each other for news.

The Qinhuai River had just been lifted, and some people planned to open the door again and do business as usual, but seeing Fang Kongxun's salty fish turned over, they all closed the door again, walking around and watching.

Jiangnan Gongyuan.

Zhu Xu was walking along the path inside like an ordinary student.

Although this is not the courtyard of a wealthy family, it is full of twists and turns, and the courtyard is deep.

Occasionally someone passed by, took a look at Zhu Xu and then strode away. Everyone came and went in a hurry, cherishing time very much.

This Jiangnan Gongyuan is a sacred place for Ming students. I don’t know how many people came out from here, and then they were in the court class, which was very impressive for a while.

"Tell me, you think Fang Kongxuan may not be able to succeed?" Zhu Xu waved his folding fan and walked slowly with a still expression on his face.

Behind him is Shi Bangyao, the governor of Yingtian Mansion, who is almost fifty this year, with a face like a middle-aged man, serious expression, cautious eyes, and every move seems to be thinking and deliberating.

Shi Bangyao bowed slightly, and said: "Yes. Mr. Fang comes from a wealthy family, and has relations with the evil party of Donglin, Fushe, etc. The minister is not reversing the old score, but just thinks that Mr. Fang will be under too much pressure, and he may not be able to Can bear it for too long..."

Zhu Xu nodded slightly. Shi Bangyao's words made sense. No matter who was involved in the reform in Nanzhili, he would feel the pressure. This was especially true for Fang Kongxuan, who had a complicated identity and background.

But Zhu Xu smiled and waved the folding fan and said: "I have no doubts about employing people, and I don't need to be suspicious. Since I gave Fang Kongxuan a chance, I just trust him. You are the governor of Yingtian Mansion, so you can help me. I don't just want to see The behavior of the governor's yamen will also look at the actions of prefects and county magistrates in various places, you, the prefect of Yingtian Prefecture, should set an example for me, and don't lose face."

"According to the order!"

Shi Bangyao hurriedly said, then looked up at Zhu Xu, and said, "Your Majesty, I have one more worry. Mr. Fang has gone too far, and Qin Huaihe can't just write it off."

Hearing this, Zhu Xu stopped and looked ahead, his eyes flickering slightly.

He remembered what happened in Yangzhou.Regarding the imperial court's new policy, Cao Bushan repeated it almost rigidly, without any flexibility to adapt to local conditions, messing up the salt policy, without any subjective initiative.

Fang Kongxuan may have ordered the closure of the Qinhuai River for the purpose of deterrence or establishing prestige, but it also shows a problem from the side: these bureaucrats are divorced from reality and do not understand the various laws of reality. It is necessary to make the best use of the situation, and not to use policies to distort the objective facts, so as to satisfy the inner sense of accomplishment and power.
