The Head of the Ming Dynasty Spared His Life

Yan Song had already thought of a countermeasure, and he came out and said with emotion: "Minister, please resign from the post of Tianjin Kaihai Minister."

. .

Chapter 742 Rapid retreat [1]

"What?" Jiajing frowned: "Didn't you do a good job in Tianjin Kaihai? Why do you want to resign?"

Yan Song had already thought about resigning from his post.

In Daming Tianjin, as the actual principal, he has become a prince.

Whether it is financial strength, military power or city walls, Tianjin has reached a level that far exceeds that of other cities in Ming Dynasty.

Even, if Yan Song is willing, he can separate the regime in Tianjin and become king on his own.

In this battle, Tianjin was impenetrable, and even Altan Khan's 10,000+ army hated Tianjin, and it was also difficult for Ming's army to capture Tianjin.

It can be said that under Yan Song's painstaking management, Tianjin has become the second largest city in Ming Dynasty after Beijing in many areas of Ming Dynasty.Whether it is economic, military or political, it is a major force.

What's more, there are more than 30 White Lotus followers in Tianjin15, and Tang Lian'er, the saint of the White Lotus, has an ambiguous relationship with Yan Song, which is well known.Once Yan Song decides to do something, these hundreds of thousands of White Lotus Sect are all his hardcore supporters!

Even the imperial court cannot control this power.

Coupled with Yan Song's lofty prestige in the business world, the shares and influence of the three major bank accounts, and the potential top ten business groups, Yan Song can also control Tianjin economically.

Under such circumstances, Yan Song, the chief assistant of the cabinet, continues to stay in Tianjin, whether it is political, economic or military, it is enough to keep the emperor Jiajing from sleeping!

This is why Zhang Juzheng's words can make Jiajing's face change drastically.

For Jiajing, a hero who is proficient in the emperor's mind, the problem is not to trust or distrust Yan Song, but to not allow such an existence with both central power and local strength to appear by his side!

And Yan Song is very smart, the first sentence, he went straight to the boss's confidant's trouble - his strength in Tianjin is too terrifying, so the boss is worried.

He abolished his martial arts and directly resigned from the post of Tianjin Kaihai Minister.

The subtext is that Tianjin belongs to Daming, and I am just running this place for you, the emperor. Now Taozi is about to mature, and it is time to hand over the power.

Jiajing's face softened all of a sudden, completely softened.

Yan Song showed his heart, so that the former friendship between the two gay friends was quickly restored, and there was no longer any gap.

"Where!" Jiajing laughed loudly, pointing at Yan Song and said, "Look at it all, this is my Yan Aiqing, the chief assistant of the cabinet, Yan Song's high moral integrity! I didn't say anything, Yan Aiqing has resigned voluntarily, and she will never lose her love bit!"

Jiajing laughed, and the officials also smirked: "Hahaha, that's it!"

"It's still Yan Shoufu with high integrity."

"Don't be proud of taking credit, the demeanor of a famous minister in ancient times!"

The crown prince and Xu Jie had the happiest smiles.

They have long coveted the Tianjin Shipping Department.

The opening of the sea in Tianjin is imminent, but the goal of taxation of one million has been achieved ahead of schedule!

This has not yet begun to collect taxes!

If the sea is officially opened, the princelings estimate that Tianjin will pay at least 400 million to 500 million taxes a year!

This is a hen that lays golden eggs!

The crown prince asked Zhang Juzheng to kill Yan Song in order to drag Yan Song down and replace him with his own people, so as to pick up the ready-made cheap!

Yan Song thought: "(╯‵□)╯︵┻━┻! Turn the table!"

Of course he was well aware of Jiajing's emperor's intentions, and he was not happy with the emperor's behavior of picking peaches, and he was even more aware of the prince's sinister intentions.

But Yan Song understands what is the limit for getting along with Jiajing.

In fact, there was only one reason why Yan Song decided to hand over the position of Minister of Kaihai in Tianjin with all his heart and soul.

That is, it doesn't make any difference whether he is in this position or not!

Tianjin is already Yan Song's iron camp!No one can take it away.

Do not believe?

The economic lifeline of Tianjin has long been controlled by Yan Song.As financial tycoons, the three major banks have infiltrated the blood of every firm in Tianjin and controlled all financial resources.The top ten merchant consortia + Shanxi merchants + Zhejiang merchants + Huizhou merchants have already occupied more than 8% of Tianjin's business! (The remaining [-]% ​​are foreign businessmen) Even foreign business groups only recognize Yan Song!

In terms of Tianjin's political power, not to mention Wang Jiaping and Hai Rui, the two vice-presidents of the Shibo Department, and Jin Yiwei Qianhu Lu Quan, all obeyed Yan Song's words. Even ordinary officials of the Shibo Department were promoted by Yan Song. of.With Yan Song still the chief assistant of the cabinet, who would dare to replace these officials?In terms of civil political power, the more than 30 members of the White Lotus Sect in Tianjin, plus tens of thousands of industrial workers, are Yan Song's hardcore strength.Who dares to refuse to accept the successor?

Tianjin's military system was built by Yan Song.Zuo Xuanwuwei, Tianjin Wei, Fort, and Shipyard were all built by Yan Song himself.The foreign experts and scientists inside are Yan Song's personal relationship.It is said that as long as Yan Song gives an order, Tianjin's armed forces are all his!

Politics, economy, and military affairs are all covered by Yan Song 697. Is there any difference who will be the minister of opening the sea?

Yan Song snickered in his heart, but his face was desolate, and he said to Jiajing: "Your Majesty, you must pay a million tax silver before the end of the year. Tianjin has not yet opened the sea, and the full amount has been paid. It can be considered that the minister has completed the mission." Bar?"

Jiajing was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear for a long time, he nodded sharply and said: "That's right! Huang Jin has reported to me. He said that once the sea is opened, Yan Ge's old Tianjin Shipping Department will immediately become a hen that lays golden eggs for Daming! "

He glanced at the prince who was eager to try, and then at Yan Song, feeling a little sorry for Yan Song.They worked hard for a year, and risked their lives to repel Mongolia. Instead of rewarding them, they wanted to take away the fruits that were about to ripen.You can't be so dishonest in your own life.

Jiajing pondered for a while, and made a decision: "Yan Aiqing, I thought about it. Although the situation in Tianjin is prosperous, it is not yet stable. You can be the Minister of Kaihai in Tianjin for another year."

When the prince heard this, he immediately wept with a sad face, this is uncomfortable.

Unexpectedly, Yan Song shook his head again and again, and said resolutely: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty, I implore you to find another talented person to serve as Minister of Kaihai in Tianjin. Your health is not good, and you are busy and fighting. You want to be transferred back to Beijing to rest for a while. "
