    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    As the Meridian Gate slowly opened, all the officials began to line up.  A turmoil capable of affecting the future political situation has been completely eliminated, and most people are not even aware of it. Only the few involved can understand the three flavors of it.

    After a set of cumbersome etiquette, Baiguan finally got to see Longyan who had been away for several days.  In the twilight of the sky, the emperor looked tired, as if he was still half asleep. Although he was wearing an exquisite and majestic dragon robe, he couldn't hide his laziness.

    In any case, everyone is very happy if the emperor can appear, because if he does not come, everyone will not be able to hold the morning court, and there will be no chance to quarrel.  So even if Long Qing really turned into a puppet, for everyone, it would be better than nothing.

    "Qi Zou Your Majesty" Having gotten used to the emperor's silence, the envoy began to read the backlog of memorials: "The Ministry of Punishment and the Metropolitan Procuratorate will play together, follow the late emperor's edict and His Majesty's imperial edict, and the three divisions will start to vindicate the injustice."  For the Wronged Prison Case, a preliminary list has been drawn up, including forty-five people including Yang Jisheng and Shen Shu who have died, thirty-three survivors including Wei Xuezeng and Ai Mu, and seventy-eight people, please Your Majesty to read."

    "Come here." Long Qing cheered up.

    "In addition," the Tongzheng envoy handed the memorial to the eunuch, picked up another one and read: "The Ministry of Industry has demolished more than a hundred altars and Taoist temples built in Xiyuan and various places in the capital. In order to build these  There are more than ten items of annual fees such as "big wood fees" collected without going through and laborious projects, totaling 2.5 million taels.

    The emperor looked at his chief assistant, Xu Jie hurried out of the class and cupped his hands: "Your Majesty Qizuo, it is the will of the people to cancel these apportionments, and there is no delay!"

    "Sure." Long Qing nodded, agreeing.

    "The Ministry of Household Affairs made a separate request to exempt the national tax and arrears." The Secretary of General Administration recited the third memorial.

    Long Qing looked at Xu Jie, and Xu Jie said: "This is also reasonable."

    The emperor wanted to be sure, but he heard a deep voice saying: "The whole country is exempt, but the southeast cannot be exempt!" You don't need to look to know who said this.

    Xu Jie felt bored for a while, and Gao Yao, Minister of the Household Department, said: "May I ask Mr. Gao Ge, why do you have to treat them differently? Is it because the southeast is rich, so you want to kill the rich and help the poor?"

    "What does the imperial court have to do with the prosperity of the southeast?" Gao Gong said coldly: "A province in Zhejiang is richer than the other ten provinces in terms of wealth, but the amount of tax money sent to the treasury every year is not as much as that of Shandong.  Everyone knows it, but for some reason, no one speaks. For such provinces, the tax rate should be re-determined, the collection method should be reformed, and the taxes that should be collected should be raised, instead of adding more flowers to them, and not even collecting what can be collected!"

    "Mr. Gao Ge's words are inappropriate." Gao Yao shook his head and said, "No matter how rich the southeast is, not every family has a cornucopia. Its anti-Japanese war lasted for more than ten years, and the national funds were less than eleven, and the military expenses basically came from taxes,  Jiapai, many places with heavy burdens, such as Zhezhi, add millions of taels every year, and the accumulation has reached tens of millions of taels. Because of the countless bankrupts of the wealthy households in the southeast, let alone ordinary people, many people take risks.  Going out to sea for banditry has aggravated the banditry in the southeast! In such a situation, the viciousness will recur, and the people's livelihood has long been extremely difficult. At this time, it is best to rest with the people and restore prosperity to the southeast, so that there will be more taxes." He was heartbroken and said:  "It's absolutely unacceptable to try to catch fish!"

    What he said made many people nod their heads.

    Silently watching from the sidelines, thinking that Gao Suqing is about to offend the public again You must know that all the officials in the court, seven out of ten are from the south, and Gao Gong openly opposes the exemption of the tax owed by the southeast, and wants to carry out tax reform.  Regardless of whether these officials belonged to Xu Jie or not, they would have trouble with him because of the proposal itself.  It will even be regarded as a challenge to the entire southeast.  This is really stabbing a hornet's nest. How can I live in peace in the future?

    Gao Gong and Gao Yao, the two surnamed Gao were arguing endlessly, but Xu Jie was silent on the sidelines.  The old fox has a clear mind, as long as he doesn't speak, it means that what Gao Gong said is his personal opinion and does not represent the cabinet.  This is enough to make many people dare to go against him.

    Xu Jie showed off his demeanor comfortably, the emperor remained silent, and there was another buzzing discussion in the court:

    "Old Gao Ge is so aggressive, where is the cabinet?" This is a person who dislikes Gao Gong.

    "Don't Mr. Gao Ge have the right to speak?" This is in support of him.

    "Where there is a tall beard, there will be quarrels. Why don't you care about it?" Disgusted.

    "Old Gao Ge is just talking about the facts!" Supported.

    "I see Much Ado About Nothing!" objected.

    ? In general, the three to seven are divided, againstbsp; "Oh" Long Qing nodded and said, "Then retreat." He stood up with a flick of his sleeves.  Amidst the sound of congratulations, the emperor was about to walk down the imperial steps, but he stopped suddenly, found the Minister of the Household Department Gao Yao in the crowd and said, "Gao Aiqing, haven't you received my note?"

    Gao Yao hurriedly said: "Return to the emperor, I received it."

    "Then why" Long Qing said vaguely, "Not yet?"

    "Because" Gao Yao's answer was unambiguous: "The imperial court does not have this budget, and the Ministry of Household Affairs does not know what His Majesty's money is for, so there is no way to ask the cabinet for instructions!"

    "Oh" Long Qing snorted and said, "Then I will write to you again" After finishing speaking, he left obviously unhappy.

    Looking at this scene, Xu Jie shook his head helplessly Just as Long Qing was crushed by Jiajing, and his bad habits exploded after ascending to the throne, the officials were also crushed by Jiajing.  The minister is proud of being disobedient, and if it goes on for a long time, how can the emperor's authority survive?  The ministers will disrespect His Majesty more and more

    In fact, he is very clear that there is a big reason for this, which is the result of his indulgence in speech, but he still has a lot of reliance on the speech officer, at least until he achieves his goal, he dare not change course.

    The emperor left, but the ministers still stood still, because the minister of the Ministry of Rites still had to be promoted by the court, and the cabinet minister Naoiro had already brought a set of props, and invited the six ministers, nine ministers, and officials above the minister to recommend them first and then make a secret decision, and the results came out soon.  Both expected and unexpected.

    As expected, Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Rites was silent, and he was naturally elected as Minister of the Ministry of Rites because he was the only candidate, and no one came out to compete with him.

    Unexpectedly, a total of thirty-six votes were passed, with no abstentions and no opposition.  This is incredible.  Because it is not uncommon for a single candidate to vote, but all the ministers who have the right to vote have voted for it, which seems to have never happened.

    ?Because if you are an official to a certain level, it is impossible for you to have no enemies, opponents, even a good man like Li Chunfang, there are still people who envy and hate him, and who don't like him, so it is almost impossible to pass a unanimous vote.

    But silence did it¡ª¡ª

    Split ¡ª¡ª
