Chapter 518: Reaction

Wu Shan quickly finalized the article recommended by Xu Wei, and took the new issue of "Talking about the Past and the Present" with the new issue, and hurriedly took a sedan chair towards Xiyuan.

Power determines status, and Wu Shan, as the editor-in-chief of "Talking about the Past and the Present", has also risen sharply in Shilin, resulting in an increasingly loud voice calling for him to join the cabinet.

Compared with Yan Song and Xu Jie, who are "halfway monks", Wu Shan is the real Hanlin people. Now, as the only one of the six Shangshu from the Hanlin Academy, his qualifications are even more impeccable, and it is natural to enter the cabinet.

If it was placed in any previous dynasty, Wu Shan would probably have entered the cabinet early in the morning, and he would definitely not be stuck at this juncture to this day. It's just that in this dynasty, the prerequisites for entering the cabinet are no longer seniority and others, but Jiajing's willingness.

Like Zhang Xuan, who was not born in the Hanlin Academy, just because he won the favor of the saints, he was able to enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister in only six years and became the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty.

As soon as he thought of this, Wu Shan also sighed deeply, knowing that no matter how loud this kind of appeal was, it was useless, and the key was still with the emperor.

Wuyi Palace, the cabinet is on duty, and a cough sounds.

The room was also very warm, and there was sandalwood wafting there, but the old Yan Song was wearing a dress, his face was sickly, and he was burying his head in the draft book.

This sudden heavy snow made him catch some cold, but the symptoms were not obvious, and he insisted on the ticket manuscript, but it was the transcript of Jiangxi Governor Ma Sen.

Seeing that it was the script from Jiangxi, he also cheered up some spirits, and it turned out that it was for the salt to introduce the matter.

Jiangxi is not near the sea, and there is no salt mine, so solid and edible salt needs to be purchased from other places. In the division of the imperial court, Jiangxi wants to introduce Huai salt, and about 390,000 Huai salt is introduced every year.

It was only in this transcript that Governor Ma Sen pointed out that Nan'an, Ganzhou, Ji'an and other prefectures privately ate Guangdong salt, resulting in only 160,000 citations of Huai salt. It is proposed to build a bridge and set up a customs in Xiajiang County to curb the illegal salt, and please increase it to 470,000.

"The country of trade is a good country!"

Yan Song held his breath and concentrated, holding a pen on a piece of paper, and wrote these eight words vigorously.

It's just that after he finished writing, he sighed softly.

The land of this province was originally 390,000 salt citations, and it was discounted by more than half, which of course made people feel helpless. Not only is the Ming Dynasty's fiscal expenditure staggering, but this revenue is also increasingly taxed.

It's just that the big households in the south of the Yangtze River continue to evade taxes, and even the salt tax is declining, which makes the finances of the Ming Dynasty even more stretched. It is no wonder that the Holy Lord was furious and already wanted to cut the military spending of the Nine Sides.

The soldiers of the Nine Sides were also not angry, and this large amount of military funds was allocated to the past, and they could not win the battle, and there was a scandal of killing good people and making meritorious contributions, and this year they were beaten under the city wall by the Mongols.

This large amount of military spending has been allocated, and feeding it is equivalent to feeding it for nothing. In the opinion of the saint, it is better to save that military money and let the Mongols go south, and they can't take much with them alone.

Now the governor of Masson's recital, he agrees, and I believe that the Holy One will agree.

It's just that he knows that if he wants to really implement it, I'm afraid it will be difficult.

Jiangxi's businessmen are well-developed, and there are not many wealthy families, which has also caused many Jiangxi people to embark on the road of official careers. Not to mention that he, the first assistant, is from Jiangxi, and many of the six are from Jiangxi, this is a greeting to the past, and that small checkpoint can stop Guangdong's private salt?

In the same way, he knew that this method would work on the surface, but it would not work at all.

When Yan Song wanted to continue to flip through the notebook, the second assistant Xu Jie walked in. He put down the notebook in his hand and looked up at the smiling little old man, but a feeling of discomfort swelled in his heart.

Originally, he wanted to hide this little wind chill, but the matter was still stabbed to the saint by Xu Jie. So when he visited the saint in the morning, the saint mentioned that Xu Jie should share some more scripts.

Although this matter was small, it made him realize that Xu Jie didn't want to wait any longer, and he was about to move again at first, but he didn't know if he was going to brew some big conspiracy.

"Yuanfu, this is the demolition of the envoy and the political envoy, please take a look!" Xu Jie's face was thin, but he was full of energy, and his clothes were thin, and he handed over a book and said respectfully.

Yan Song took the notebook and reviewed it carefully, but his face became more and more solemn, and he suddenly fell down the notebook and said angrily: "The son of the Fenxun Dao raped his wife, but the Fenxun Dao sentenced her husband to death? This is really a big mistake in the world, and it is comparable to the number one bully Jia Bao in the Ming Dynasty! ”

Bang!

The book fell heavily on the case, and a cabinet official was about to walk in to report the matter, but half of the leg that had stepped forward was retracted. It's just that when he heard the voice, he mistakenly thought that Shousuke and Jisuke had discovered the dispute.

But it's not his random speculation, the children of the second assistant Xu Jie, who are about to make a move, have written to impeach the governor Hu Zongxian. Who doesn't know who Hu Zongxian is, obviously the relationship between these two bigwigs has deteriorated again.

"Lord Motofu, don't be angry!" Xu Jie gently admonished, and then said: "Diao Nan's reputation is good, I'm afraid I don't know it, and I'm in the dark!" ”

"What an unintelligible! Is it a coincidence that his son did evil, but he caught a substitute for the dead? …… Ahem! Yan Song's anger was unabated, and he immediately questioned again, but he coughed.

"It's all speculation, there's no real evidence for this!" Xu Jie shook his head slightly.

Yan Song stopped coughing, knowing that this matter was not easy to pursue, so he said: "Directly let Guangdong investigate according to the Prosecutor's Office, if no evidence can be found, he will not be investigated for his crime, but his patrol will end here!" ”

"Yes!" Xu Jie arched his hand. This matter was handed over to the Guangdong Provincial Prosecutor's Department, not Dali Temple or the Criminal Department, and the matter actually ended here.

Yan Song sighed lightly again, feeling extremely disappointed in this kind of official. It's just that he knows that this Diao Nan is Xu Jie's student, so Xu Jie's partiality.

He felt that Xu Jie's ability was there, but he cherished his wings too much. This time, I definitely didn't think about the relationship between teachers and students, but I didn't want to have such a villain under the door, which would affect his reputation, so I just wanted to cover it up.

Is it really worth it to shield such officials just for the sake of a little fame?

Soon, his brow furrowed again. Because Lin Haoran is also on the notebook, which is in front of him, I am afraid that this kid will not give up.

Hey?

Yan Song originally thought that Lin Haoran was going to impeach Diao Nan, but after slowly opening it, he found that it was not the case. Just looked at the content of the playbook, but it made him silent for a long time, and found that this kid also knows how to pick the right time to make conditions.
