Chapter 227 Please lift the sea ban

After hearing Jiao Fang's words, Yang Ling raised his glass and sipped the wine silently, without saying a word for a long time.

Jiao Fang placed the jade chopsticks horizontally on the plate, staring at him quietly, waiting for Yang Ling's choice quietly. The room was silent. After a long time, Yang Ling suddenly held the cup and filled him with wine, chuckled and said, "The old man in the Pavilion is named Zhuji. After hearing what you said, Yang Ling really benefited a lot. I am not the commander of the generals of the four towns, but I assist the emperor. Haha, it's still difficult to do so."

When Jiao Fang heard this, a big rock fell to the ground. He quickly smiled and answered the cup with a smile, saying happily: "Your Madam has the talent to save the world, and is the emperor's loyal minister. It is the blessing of the country and the blessing of the disciples. Jiao Fang is willing to follow you, build some achievements, advance and retreat together, and never leave!"

With a clear sound, the jade cup was gently touched, Yang Ling and Jiao Fang raised their glasses and drank them all, and then smiled at each other. Jiao Fang's face was relaxed and the wrinkles spread out happily. He rolled up his sleeves and held the chopsticks to cloth Yang Ling with vegetables, and smiled happily: "Do you want to return the tax rights to Eunuch Liu?"

Yang Ling pretended to be angry and said, "Old Jiao Ge was just heartbroken with Yang, but now he is still unwilling to treat each other honestly?"

Jiao Fang smiled and then said with a stern expression: "Then the disciple said bluntly. The lord suddenly promoted the title and promoted it to the official position. Among them, Liu Gong, the Chief Secretary of the Ministry of Rites, must have been promoted to the fire. The emperor was very kind, but Liu Gong placed the lord on a pot and used the title and official position as firewood. The officials in the court were the ones who raised fires. What the disciples said was correct?"

Yang Ling's eyes flashed and praised: "The master of the Pavilion has a unique wise eye and is very sharp. Liu Jin is an internal minister, memorials of all officials, border documents, appointments and removals of officials, and issued sages. All of them must be passed by him. He almost became half of the emperor's family. If the taxes in the world are handed over to him, his status is more than just a pivotal one, and he is simply a call for the wind and rain.

However, the Tax Supervisor was originally under the control of the Sili Supervisor. It is legitimate to give up the tax rights to the Sili Supervisor, not to mention that the Emperor’s favor for him is not inferior to me. If the Sili Supervisor kicked away, there would be no reason to get it on the table, even the Emperor would not be able to pass the level of the emperor.”

"I promised that the Ministry of Revenue and the Li Li Supervisor jointly took charge of the tax supervision. At that time, it was to persuade Grand Secretary Li Dongyang to support the lifting of the maritime ban. Now it seems that there is another benefit. That is, let the outer court move the capital to stare at this piece of fat. With the official watching, Liu Jin will not be allowed to monopolize the power, he will not be able to deal with me."

Jiao Fang said happily: "It's great, but there are two things that are difficult to do. The ministers who were entrusted to the orphans in the court often complained to the emperor. The emperor gave all the power to the emperor in order to get rid of the constraints of the elders. The adults were unwilling to be dictated by the emperor, although they were loyal to the emperor. However, doing so would inevitably let down the emperor's desirability, and the emperor would be displeased. How should the adults resign from the right to tax dictatorship, you should think carefully and find an appropriate reason.

Also, the adult's plan to "kill three soldiers with two peaches" may not be able to hide it from the outer court and the inner court, how should they do it without any doubt? It is even more difficult. Do adults already have a slander?"

Yang Ling smiled slightly and said, "It's hard to say it, it's easy to say it. Now that the snow has melted, the flowers on the road can slowly get drunk! I'll endure the fame and change it to the light and sing."

Jiao Fang was stunned, stroked her beard and pondered for a moment. She said slowly, "You can snuggle in the red and green, and you will be happy all your life. Youth for a while. I will endure the fame and sing softly... Liu Sanbian failed to take the exam many times and failed to get fame. He wrote this poem to make fun of himself. From then on, he became addicted to wine and romantic love. The lord is proud of the spring breeze. Why...?"

When Jiao Fang said this, his eyes flashed with a flash. He suddenly stroked his hands and said, "I understand. The promotion of the title and promotion, and the success of the youth, is a common problem for young people. Adults are just in their prime, so it is the most natural thing to do. However, it will never cause doubt. Instead, it will make people look down on the ambition of adults. I believe that this move will definitely dispel the fear of many people.

Furthermore, romantic affairs cannot be considered a big deal, and some people cannot hurt the root of the adults. Moreover, such a thing will not be aroused by the emperor's suspicion, and thus lose the emperor's favor. The adults can use this excuse to hand over the tax supervisor "reluctantly". Since they have 'taken' back from this tax supervisor, who else doubts? Haha! Liu Gong is going to take it away, and the adults are taking it over, which is wonderful!"

Yang Ling smiled and said, "Well, this official committee was forced to hand over the right to tax. The emperor was sorry for it, so he would definitely give it comfort. If I suggest that the Ministry of Revenue and the Sili Supervisor jointly take charge of the tax, what if I suggest that the Ministry of Revenue and the Sili Supervisor jointly take charge of the tax?"

Jiao Fang also smiled treacherously and responded: "The emperor naturally agrees. Even when the Ministry of Revenue and the Silijian know the idea, they will only think that the adults are unwilling to accept it and want to wait for an opportunity to retake it. How could he think that this is a peach that the adults are willing to give away?"

The two laughed, and then carefully considered the details until they were sure that there was no mistake. Yang Ling said: "It is urgent to open a sea trade. I have to visit Mr. Li's mansion and discuss some things with him. There is a list here. Master will take it to carefully consider it. It must be done within half a month."

He said as he took out a note from his sleeve and gently pushed it in front of Jiao Fang.

Jiao Fang took it and saw rows of names of ministers in the court. He couldn't help but look up in surprise and look at Yang Ling in confusion.

Yang Ling leaned over and pointed to the name above, and studied it carefully with Jiao Fang. Jiao Fang listened and kept it secretly in his heart. After discussing for a long time, Yang Ling stood up and said, "I will go to the Grand Secretary Li's mansion now. I will mention Lord Li to help this matter and ask him to help. Master Gong just let it go!"

"Xiangyun Tower" was today conquered by Yang Ling, the new general of the Dragon and Tiger General Yang Ling. Before the evening fell, the restaurant was cleaned up. The masters of "Xiangyun Tower" who had just given a few words in the kitchen all tied up their aprons and took action in person. Yang Ling's family invited the red apprentice people who were both outstanding in the brothels in the capital to perform their skills and drink. Before the protagonists arrived, the building was full of singing and singing, and the sound of silk and bamboo continued.

These red girls are all pretty girls in their 28th year of age. They all have clear and tender skin, misty hair, cloudy hair, light makeup, and charming.

Any one of these girls is the most valuable beauty that is easily seen by the young guests. With their status, even the princes and grandsons can't easily invite them to launch, especially such female porridges. They treat them as ordinary girls.

But Yang Ling's current status is really extraordinary. The young and handsome Marquis, who is successful in his youth, is so capable that these girls with high standards and high standards can't help but be in love with them. You must know that both Marquis Yang's two concubines are from the "Flower Garden". His reputation and value are not as good as those two yellow-haired girls. If he can be seen by the Marquis, he will be able to reach the sky in one step and jump into the dragon gate.

So the girls dressed up carefully early and rushed to the restaurant. The building was full of beautiful women with fragrant winds. If Xiangyun Tower had not cleared the scene early, any wine was stunned at first glance, they would have thought they had reached the Nine Heavens Fairyland.

Most of the guests Yang Ling invited were not low in official ranks, so he came to the ground very early. The girls who had already arrived saw the marquis wearing a large-sleeved robe with blue satin. They had long figure, red lips and white teeth, and were handsome and elegant. In addition, the temperament he developed by his accustomed to giving orders is really heartbreaking.

The girls looked at them with their own methods. They were about to use their own methods to attract the attention of the Marquis, but they didn't expect that it was like his shadow. As soon as Yang Ling appeared, a sedan chair arrived. A man with three short beards and three short beards entered Xiangyun Tower with a gloomy face, and pulled the handsome little marquis into the private room. He kept his door shut and broke the girls' silver teeth.

Yang Ling sat in the elegant room, crossed her legs and drank a sip of fragrant tea, looked at Mou Bin, and smiled and said, "Mr. Mou, I used to be calm and composed, so I put Admiral Zhang Xiu in prison while chatting and laughing. At that time, success or failure was related to life and death, and I was calm and composed. Now Eunuch Liu is just trying to jail the envoy of Shao's peace and slap in prison, giving the adult a color. Why should I be so anxious?"

Mou Bin smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, I am so proud of my youth. How can I understand my mood?"

He sighed quietly and said, "If it was only related to my personal life and death, Mou would not frown. Alas! I believe that the Lord knew about Mou and Liu Jin long ago. The Jinyiwei is the emperor's imperial prison, and the investigation and investigation of the prison department is a major case. However, no one should change the confession of a crime. He must show off his true intentions. It is a pity that Liu Jin hates Dai Xian's confession to scold him as a "power eunuch". He relies on his power to force me to tamper with his confession!

The Jinyiwei is an independent judicial department and reports directly to the emperor. How can I be controlled by him? Liu Jin takes revenge with his personal grudges, and Mou is ready to sue him to the emperor!"

Yang Ling glanced at him and shook his head and said, "It is easy to ask Shao Zhenfu to get out of prison! The Jinyiwei North Punishment envoy, Eunuch Liu can put him in prison, but he dared not do anything. I sent him a step, and Lord Shao came out. It is difficult to force Lord Mou to delete the word "Quan Yiqiu" and tamper with confession. The emperor would only laugh when he heard this, and would not touch Eunuch Liu a hair!"

Mou Bin couldn't help but flash his eyes as if he had something to say. After a while, he couldn't help saying, "I heard that Gu Dayong offended the emperor and was removed from his position as the Dongchang Factory. The successor recommended by the Lord to the emperor was Dai Yi, the eunuch, the former leader of the Silijian in Jinling?"

Yang Ling nodded and said, "That's right, Dai Yi did not participate in the evil deeds of Wang Yue and others. He was innocent and had been in the Sili Supervisory Office for many years and was familiar with the affairs of the East Factory. Now the emperor is working hard to make up for the Maitreya cult. He needs a capable leader. Dai Yi is actually the right candidate."

Mou Bin smiled and paused before saying, "Eunuch Dai was imprisoned at the same time as the adults during the Feng Shui case of the imperial tomb. It can be said to be a friend in distress. Now the adults recommend Eunuch Dai, and he has the kindness of helping him in times of crisis. Eunuch Dai succeeds to the Dongchang Factory and will definitely give him a pet and repay him with a petty. Dongchang was originally under the jurisdiction of the Sili Supervisor, and with Liu Jin's spirit, it is difficult for him to be indifferent to this situation."

Yang Ling laughed in his heart, and Mou Bin couldn't help but ask for help directly. This was an indirect attack on his relationship with Liu Jin. At this time, it would be beneficial to him to completely pull the Jinyiwei to his side, but what was the price? Assist them to impeach Liu Jin?

It is impossible that this crime cannot defeat Liu Jin at all. If he takes action in person and openly fights against Liu Jin for power, he will destroy his own hidden plan and put himself in the clear place.

The first major thing to do now is to open sea trade. The emperor is keen on this, and Liu Jin dared not openly oppose it at the risk of losing the emperor's favor. However, if he secretly interferes and makes some mistakes in the establishment of the Maritime Trade Port, officials who were dissatisfied with lifting the sea ban would take the opportunity to counterattack, and major events would die.

But in the future, I will have many places to rely on the Jinyiwei. The Jinyiwei is spread all over the country, but it is a very powerful force. Mou Bin is desperate today and has to ask for help. Can he push them away? What reason can he calm him down?

Yang Ling frowned slightly and suddenly said straightforwardly: "Mr. Mou, Mr. Yang, Lord. Mou, Lord. Shao and Brother Qian of Jiangnan have always been intimate and said everything. Brother Mou is open-minded and open-minded. When we deal with each other, we don't have to turn the bush. What do you want your brother to do, just speak."

Mou Bin's face looked slightly shy and said awkwardly: "Since that's the case, then Mou said bluntly."

He coughed and cleared his throat and said, "I will never change Dai Xian's confession. The ups and downs of this matter have been known to everyone in the city. If this word is changed, the Jinyiwei will lose his reputation and will never be able to raise his head again. Since the Silijian has sent the case file back, Mou decided to bypass the Silijian and personally send the case file to the emperor."

Yang Ling shook his head disapprovingly and said, "This 'Eunuch' will not have any impact on Liu Jin. Maybe the emperor still thinks that Eunuch Liu is loyal and trustworthy, so he will be criticized. Is this worth it?"

Mou Bin's face was solemn and his eyes were stern: "A real man has done something and does not. This case has been concluded. It is no longer important what is written on the case file. What Liu Jin wants to fight for now is his authority. Mou wants to protect the land and be the dignity of the Jinyiwei! If I let go now, I can protect my personal future, but why can I explain to the 100,000 brothers, and what kind of face can I be their admiral?"

Yang Ling was silent. Mou Bin insisted a little stupid. But he was so cute and silly respectable.

Do something. Do something is easy to say, what should I pay for? Have you ever used a mantis arm to resist Mount Tai with a tragic force for the most valuable person in my heart and for the most valuable things?

He put down the teacup, restrained his smile, and said seriously: "You are the Admiral Jinyi. It is not difficult to present it to the emperor directly. What is difficult is the suppression that Eunuch Liu comes with him. What do you need me to do?"

Mou Bin looked at him gratefully and said, "Mu also knows that with my strength, if he offended him this time, the open and secret guns will sooner or later be destroyed by his hands, but I don't want to sit still. I want to ask the adults to come forward and protect Shao's peace envoy. He is my friend for many years, and I insist on this matter. Lao Shao has just suffered it on my behalf."

Yang Ling nodded and said, "This is simple. I will propose it when Eunuch Liu attends the banquet. His target is not Lord Shao. I think he will sign it."

Mou Bin's eyes were slightly red, and he clasped his fists and said, "So, Mou thanked Lord Yang. The second thing is to treat him with his own way. Liu Jin took Shao Zhenfu and was imprisoned. The charge was that he forced the civilian land after moving to the capital and bought a house with his power at a low price.

These days, Mou also sent someone to investigate Liu Jin. He was responsible for supervising the construction of leopard houses and sent a large number of purchasing materials and accessories to various places. He used the government's identity to purchase them and put the money allocated by the internal factory into his own pocket.

Taking Qingzhou, Shandong as an example, several major stone factories transported forty ships of large stone materials to the capital. The stonemason and the shipworker did not receive a cent. The people he sent offered a reward to catch beasts. Local hunters caught three tigers and transported them into the leopard room. The hunters were killed by tigers and four people were killed by tigers. The local people were resentful. The relatives of the deceased carried their bodies and paraded in the streets to make trouble. They were disbanded by his imperial sect. This crime was charged..."

Yang Ling said decisively: "He built the leopard house for the sake of the emperor. I heard that the leopard house was very suitable for the emperor's wishes. After hearing this, the emperor scolded him and ordered him to pay the money, but he would not do so."

Mou Bin couldn't help but look up. There was another thing they found, but if they were involved in this matter, they would inevitably offend another big shot. But if they didn't say it, there would be no strong evidence to resolve the crisis in front of them. What should we do?

Mou Bin pondered for a while, gritted his teeth and said, "There is another matter. The bandits in Jiangxi are severe. There are many rat thieves in the Ning Palace, but the local government is unable to catch the thieves. King Ning was furious and sent someone to bring a large sum of gold and silver to Beijing to resume the three guards of the palace. Liu Jin accepted the heavy gift from the Ning Palace. He heard that he was making suggestions for him in front of the emperor and accepting bribes from the vassal kings. For example, it is a taboo for the emperor. Look at this crime..."

"What? Prince Ning's Mansion requested the reinstatement of the three guards?" Yang Ling Daqi asked quickly: "Is Liu Jin giving advice to Prince Ning?"

King Ning invited the three guards to be restored because of the rampant thieves. Mou Bin did not take this matter seriously. What he cared about was that Liu Jin accepted the benefits of the vassal king and advised the vassal king.

The emperor was not afraid of the ministers around him who made friends with foreign vassals. Even with Emperor Hongzhi's lenientness, if he heard about such a thing, he would definitely deal with it decisively with thunder means to warn the ministers. The important thing was not whether the requirements put forward by the vassal kings were reasonable. It was a taboo for the emperor to make friends with the vassal kings. Even if Emperor Zhengde had a little bit of imperial power, he would not be vague about this matter.

Seeing that Yang Ling was so cautious, Mou Bin nodded and said, "That's right, sir, can you get involved in this matter?"

Yang Ling thought to himself: "King Ning restored the three guards and rebelled. This matter is true. It seems that before he rebelled, Emperor Zhengde trusted him with great confidence and now he is without any evidence. If he uses this to tell the emperor that King Ning would rebel in the future, he will definitely not believe it. Anyway, King Ning will definitely not succeed in rebellion, so there is no need to be busy talking about it.

What is the reason why Liu Jin has not yet achieved a good end in history? Is it related to King Ning?

Yang Ling thought hard for a long time and couldn't figure it out. Seeing that Mou Bin was looking at him with a long eye, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "What the emperor is thinking today cannot be considered by ordinary people. Will the emperor punish Liu Jin for this? To be honest, I can't grasp it.

However, this matter should not be hidden from the emperor. Lord Mou, don’t be anxious first. After I understand the details, I will agree with you whether to make a statement. Now, I will protect Lord Shao first. As for the case file submitted... If there is any action on Eunuch Liu, I will block you for you first."

Mou Bin knew that no one knew the current emperor better than Yang Ling. If he said he was not sure, then he would definitely not be sure of this matter. Is Liu Jin so popular with the emperor? Even the big taboo like him like making friends with the vassal kings could not defeat him? At this time, he had no idea and had to nod in silence.

There were noisy people outside, and several adults walked upstairs talking and laughing. Yang Ling heard the voice and smiled at Mou Bin and said, "Mr. Mou, please drink and talk today. As for what you and I have to discuss, you must plan before you can act. Now I can't be anxious. I will meet Eunuch Liu later..."

Mou Bin smiled and said, "No need to mention it, you can talk and laugh in person, but you still have a lot of land in this scheming."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and walked out.

Yang Ling, the admiral of the Inner Factory, was the newly-magistrate of Weiwuhou and the General of Longhu. Therefore, in the "Xiangyun Tower", the eight tigers in the palace, the admiral of the Jinyiwei, the right commander Liu Yu, the minister of the Ministry of War, Cao Yuan, the minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and Zhang Cai of the Ministry of Personnel, and other officials and the three major leaders of the Inner Factory, and invited all the leaders of the capital to cheer them up. As soon as the news came, the entire capital was known to everyone.

Yang Ling was drunk and demoted all officials in the court, and was obsessed with the famous prostitute Hua, who was a "Qianhonglou" and Su Yue, the top red girl in "Fengxian Pavilion", so that the news that Liu Daxian, Ma Wensheng and others were greatly despised. The young scholar was crazy about his ambition and was so blatant that he had long aroused the dissatisfaction of the censors of the imperial envoys. Some people began to collect evidence of guilt and wanted to impeach him.

In recent days, the emperor continued to advise the emperor to reflect on leaving the palace in a small way, and to form a ally with the three guards of Duoyan, and to reward the favored ministers indiscriminately, and the memorials of the emperor who were favored were still presented to the palace like snow. However, Emperor Zhengde was busy moving, and these memorials were like stones sinking to the sea, and there was no reply. The censors were inspired by this, and became more and more courageous. The words on the memorials became more and more intense, and they simply scolded Zhengde as the most foolish monarch in heaven and earth throughout the ages.

Later, news came from the six ministries that Liu Jin prepared several large boxes in the Sili Supervisor and submitted memorials in the area, which involved these aspects, immediately threw them into the box, filled a box and sent people to transport them away. They did not submit them to the emperor at all. All officials were furious and the memorials impeached Liu Jin were handed over to the palace one after another.

In such a chaotic situation, Li Dongyang acquiesced and Jiao Fang presided over, and changes in the court were quietly taking place.

The Minister of Revenue, Han Wen, the Left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites and the Right Assistant Minister of War, went to the border to handle trade with the three guards of the Duoyan and the Jurchen tribes. It took less than two or three months to get back.

Zheng, the Zuodu envoy of the Censorate, was outstanding in political achievements and was honest in his official position. He was transferred to Guizhou Governor. Huang Wei, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, released the Shaanxi Provincial Government and the Ministry of Political Affairs... Several of the Censorate, who had outstanding reputations in the Hanlin Academy, were all exiled to local officials with real power. With their talents and reputation, they were naturally well deserved, so there was no resistance or doubt. These adults took office one by one.

There were also several old Hanlin masters and censors, who were the leaders of the censorship who worked hard and made great contributions. The new emperor's city was kind to the emperor, and Zhengde issued an order to reward him, and gave him wealth, silk, and escorted him back to his hometown to visit his relatives. In just over ten days, he worked in the business, moved to his post, or gave him leave. More than 20 important officials in the court left the capital.

On the first day after Emperor Zhengde moved to the leopard room, an inconspicuous memorial was placed on his desk and placed on the top of a pile of memorials.
