Super Smuggling System

Wei Zhongxian had just stepped into the central hall of the Cabinet Office, and the followers of Dongchang who followed behind walked into the central hall ahead of time and wiped down a grand master's chair in the middle.

Then he stood on both sides of the Taishi chair, waiting for Wei Zhongxian to come in and sit down.

After taking his seat, Wei Zhongxian looked up at the four cabinet ministers behind the left and right desks, and said with a smile: "Why don't you talk about it? Is it because you dislike the old slave and get in the way?"

The aura of the whole body made the four cabinet ministers startled.

In the Ming Dynasty, the only ones who could make Wei Zhongxian call himself an old slave were Li Mu and the Queen Mother.

Other than that, no one, and no one dared to be his old slave.

Even the royal family members, princes, dukes and nobles dare not.

Not to mention these four cabinet ministers in the cabinet.

After hearing that Wei Zhongxian called himself an old slave.

The four cabinet ministers immediately stood up from their seats, approached Wei Zhongxian, and bowed respectfully.

Then, the old cabinet minister said: "Where, Mr. Wei and the four of us were just chatting about some gossip, to pass the time."

The gray-haired cabinet minister echoed, "That's right, Duke Wei, the four of us are just talking about some silly things."

The gray-haired cabinet minister sneered and said, "To pass the time, to pass the time."

The slightly younger Ge Lao smiled along, and did not dare to interrupt casually, lest he say something wrong and anger the most powerful factory owner in the Ming Dynasty.

......

After a few words.

The old cabinet minister asked suspiciously: "Duke Wei, what's the matter today, that Mr. Wei came to visit the cabinet office? Wei Gong doesn't come here often on a daily basis."

After the words fell, the other three elders also looked thoughtful.

You know, in the past ten years, unless ordered by the queen mother, under normal circumstances, the factory owner in front of him rarely came to the cabinet office.

It also seldom interferes with the decision-making of the cabinet.

Just like an old man who is idle at home and caring for his life, he spends all day growing flowers and playing with birds in his mansion outside the palace, and never cares about the affairs of the court.

All affairs in the court are decided by the Queen Mother alone.

Come to cabinet today?

Is something wrong?

Thinking of this, the four cabinet ministers concentrating their thoughts, secretly glanced at each other, and began to think about what happened in the recent period in the court, which could alarm the factory owner.

It's just that no matter what the four of them thought, they couldn't figure out what it was.

After all, no matter whether it is a court matter or a local matter, it cannot pass the cabinet.

During this period of time, nothing happened.

There are no important reports from the local area.

It can be said that in addition to the natural disasters that are almost accustomed to in the entire Ming Dynasty, that is, the wars on the nine borders of Liaodong, the coastal borders, and the borders of Fujian and Vietnam.

The territory of Daming was peaceful and prosperous, and there was no sign of ordering chaos.

......

At this time, Wei Zhongxian said slowly: "Don't think about it, it's not a wind, this old man has something to come to the cabinet and wants to discuss it with the four cabinet elders."

"Let the four elders sit down, they always stand, and they don't talk in the same way."

Wei Zhongxian pointed to the Taishi chairs around him, and signaled the attendants of the East Factory to move the chairs over for the elders to sit on.

The four cabinet ministers felt relieved, and sat on the grand master's chair brought by Dongchang's entourage.

After sitting down, the elderly Ge Lao smiled and said: "Wei Gong, what is the matter that requires Wei Gong to come, but the Holy Queen has another order?"

For the four cabinet ministers, there were matters to be discussed, and Wei Zhongxian, the factory owner and secretary Li Bingbi, could be invited to personally supervise the handling.

There is only the queen mother Yi'an who is in charge of the government today.

The cabinet minister with two gray hairs also asked: "But the Holy Empress has doubts about this year's spring plowing?"

After all, in the past ten years, Zhang Yan, the Empress Dowager Yi'an, has paid great attention to farming, whether it is spring plowing, summer planting, or autumn harvest, she will always ask about the people's food.

And this period of time happens to be the vernal equinox, the farming season.

Wei Zhongxian shook his head and did not speak.

Seeing this, the younger cabinet minister hurriedly said, "Duke Wei, does the Holy Empress have other things to tell the cabinet?"

The gray-haired cabinet minister followed suit and nodded.

After the four cabinet ministers finished speaking, Wei Zhongxian didn't speak immediately.

Instead, he picked up the fragrant tea brought by Dongchang's entourage, and took a sip slowly.

Then Wei Zhongxian chewed a leaf of green tea, and after a moment of silence, he said quietly: "Yesterday, this old man entered the palace, did the emperor announce that this old man entered the palace?"

The old cabinet minister was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "Duke Wei, the emperor has some important orders..."

As soon as this remark came out, the other three cabinet ministers looked shocked, and they all looked at Wei Zhongxian who was sitting in the middle and quietly sipping tea.

This made them immediately think of a possibility.

That means the emperor can't bear to be lonely.

He wants to take back the right to manage the government from the Queen Mother.

After all, the current emperor is more than 16 years old, and he can completely govern himself and handle the government affairs.

Thinking of this, all four of them were covered in cold sweat.

Wei Zhongxian drank his tea and didn't look at the four cabinet ministers, as if he didn't care about the shock of the four cabinet ministers, and then said: "The emperor announced that the old man entered the palace because of an imperial decree."

The slightly younger cabinet minister asked in amazement, "What imperial decree is Duke Wei?"

The three cabinet ministers said at the same time: "Please make it clear, Mr. Wei."

Seeing that it was almost done, Wei Zhongxian put down the teacup in his hand, and said in a deep voice, "I want the old man to prepare a Zen edict."

For a while, there was no sound in the cabinet, as if the sound of a needle falling on the ground could be heard in silence.
