"My family governor is the most like to carry the latter, you are the new maritime eunuch, although there is Zhang Cheng's father-in-law to support you, but Zhang Gonggong is not familiar with the maritime affairs, and the people in the palace are bewitched by the outer court, and always think that it is not good to go to sea, so although this errand is assigned by the emperor, and there is Zhang Gonggong's support for you, but if there is no knowledgeable person to help you Xiao Wei, for your Xiao Wei to come up with ideas, by the way, press those villains in the palace, and pave the way for you, Xiao Wei, you really want to do things, with all due respect, it's difficult."

As soon as he sat down, Wang Yongshou clicked the question and decided on the sex.

"What the prince said is that this matter is also what I am most worried about."

Liangchen nodded thoughtfully, he was very grateful to Wang Yongshou, especially the other party's look of thinking about him made him quite moved. He had to express his special feelings for Wang Yongshou with actions, so he respectfully poured tea for the other party.

"Princess, please drink tea!"

"Sit, don't stand."

Wang Yongshou took the teacup with a smile, took a sip, and suddenly felt refreshed. He also has a lot of wine, and he really needs to relieve his hangover and wake up.

"It's rare to be so proficient in maritime affairs at such a young age. Not only does my family governor appreciate you, but our family also takes a fancy to you Xiao Wei. The afterlife is terrifying. ”

Putting down the teacup, Wang Yongshou looked at Liangchen more and more pleasing to the eyes, and said with a smile: "To tell the truth, you Xiao Wei listen, and your Xiao Wei is the head of the palace, and he is his own family. ”

The meaning of this sentence is understood by the good ministers.

In essence, there is a difference between inside and outside.

Although it is impossible for the outer court not to deal with the inner court, private Da Jue and courtiers contact abound, whether it is a court dispute or a side matter, the inner and outer courts may have differences on a certain matter, but in the end they will still compromise and cooperate with each other. However, in the matter of maritime trade, the outer court can never reach an agreement with the inner court.

Because, maritime affairs are the most glorious past of the inner court.

During the Yongle period, the power of the inner court through the West was once monstrous, and to a large extent, it even influenced the court. For a long time, the outer court only played the role of cooperating with the inner court, which must be extremely unwilling and extremely humiliating for the foreign court. It can be said that that period of time is the existence that today's scholars and doctors are most unwilling to face and want to erase.

After all, eunuchs have been discriminated against since ancient times, and they are the most hated group among scholars. The objects of contempt of scholars and doctors, such as the emperor's relatives and relatives, are much stronger than eunuchs.

But the eunuchs did things and did great things, and the eunuchs led by Zheng He went to the West, not because of the labor and mobilization of the people and the waste of national strength and people's strength, as the foreign dynasties later said, but for the Ming Dynasty to achieve a series of bumper harvest results such as wealth and diplomacy.

It's even more unbearable.

It's like a man who thinks he is handsome and majestic, watching the girl of his dreams being married by a man who looks like Wu Dalang and doesn't lift up, and after marriage, he is surprisingly affectionate as a husband and wife.

Say, "Can this man stand it?"

Is he willing to be inferior to that kind of person?

After people go to tea and cool, after Yongle, everything is naturally subverted.

The scholars and doctors who have a pen in their hands and the power to revise history are really a one-stroke determination of the Spring and Autumn Period, and a one-stroke change of the Spring and Autumn Period.

They can tolerate the appearance of eunuchs, and they can tolerate the court being controlled by the great eunuchs for a while, but they will never allow the situation in the Yongle period to appear again.

In their opinion, no matter how ruthless the power is, it is the outer dynasty that does things after all, and the inner court will never be able to replace the outer dynasty as the power center of the Ming Dynasty.

So, they can accept their own flattery and eunuchs.

The famous ministers of the Ariake generation, especially the cabinet chiefs and assistants, all had close ties with the inner court. But none of the Shousuke was willing to open the sea ban during his tenure and let the inner court go to the West again.

In their eyes, this matter is a fundamental matter that shakes the imperial court.

Liangchen believed that Wang Yongshou did not lie to him, and it was indeed impossible for Liu Jixiang to find outsiders to do maritime trade, first, he couldn't do it, and secondly, outsiders couldn't believe it.

The only thing he could trust was the head of the palace—the eunuchs like him.

It sounds like a joke, but it's actually the truth.

In the current Ming Dynasty, maritime trade is actually a major event waiting for reform.

The Ming Dynasty has reached this day, and commerce has been extremely prosperous, but class solidification is also extremely serious. Whether it is a commoner or a poor person, no matter what kind of background, as long as he takes the road of the imperial examination and enters the official career, then he will inevitably become a member of the gentry class, and it will be impossible for his ass to sit back to his original origin.

Reading, just for Yan Ruyu and the Golden House.

The eunuchs, on the other hand, could not be recognized by the scholars, so they instinctively became hostile to the scholars, and when they held power, they would reform in order to break through the existing situation, so that the eunuchs could become the same upright members of the empire as the scholars!

Because of their origins, the purpose of the reform was, of course, to weaken the power of the gentry and to redistribute wealth in favor of the commoners.

The first to carry out reforms was Liu Jin, and his reforms were very large, involving everything in the bureaucratic system. Liu Jin compiled his own policy of changing the law into a book, called "Seeing the Practice", involving 24 articles in the Ministry of Officials, 30 in the Ministry of Households, 18 in the Ministry of War, and 13 in the Ministry of Industry, all of which were aimed at the evils of the world.

Not only that, Liu Jin also restored the strict criminal law of the Hongwu era, but unlike the Hongwu era, corrupt officials were no longer punished by corporal punishment, but instead punished by economic means.

In view of the large number of southerners in the imperial examination, Liu Jin restricted the admission ratio of southerners and increased the admission ratio of juzi in the central and western regions; Liu Jin also ordered the widow to remarry, and the government would forcibly cremate those who did not bury the dead. The officials of the rich southern provinces could not be appointed not only by their own provinces, but also by neighboring provinces, and the officials of the empire began to transfer between the north and the south, and the officials who served as the governors of Caoyun could not have any contact with the provinces along the canal.

Liu Jin sent people to clean up the acres of land in the world, distributed the concealed acres of land to the self-cultivated farmers, and restricted the gentry and officers from occupying the fields.

In short, Liu Jin's changes were in line with the actual national conditions of the Ming Dynasty in any way, and many of these policies were later used by Zhang Juzheng.

It's a pity that just because Liu Jin is a eunuch, his changes have become a joke in various historical materials.

After the second uncle Wei Zhongxian took power, he also carried out reforms, and the content was almost similar to Liu Jin's, and they were also unfavorable to the gentry group, and they worked hard in the direction of reducing the burden on the peasants.

The changes have been effective, the treasury is sufficient, and the side affairs are stable.

It's a pity that as soon as the apocalypse died, the second uncle's efforts were in vain.

Like Liu Jin, all kinds of reforms made by the second uncle were made up into various jokes and ridiculed by the scholars.

It sounds like a joke that the eunuchs seek reform for the sake of the people and for the country, but the bureaucrats from top to bottom oppose it, but this is exactly the case.

The root cause of this lies in class interests.

The maritime trade has actually been opened during the Longqing period, but it is the private sector that has been opened, not the official one. The Ming Dynasty had a supervisor in Fuzhou Yuegang, but unfortunately it was only a small port, but it was a place in Yuegang, and the money traded was hundreds of thousands of taels per year!

It was not the civil official group that presided over the switch, nor the eunuchs of the inner court, but the Longqing Emperor himself.

Longqing, was a neglected emperor.

In the eyes of Liangchen, Longqing is an emperor who seeks truth from facts and reforms and opens up. At the beginning of his accession to the throne, he set the switch as the main statecraft, which made the Ming Dynasty's economy continue to develop and become the most frequently traded country in the world.

When making the decision to switch the switch, Longqing's courage was really unparalleled in the world, and he faced not only the opposition of the civilian clique, but also the pressure of the ancestral system.

It is a pity that there are policies and countermeasures, and after the emperor could not be stopped, the civil official group changed its methods to weaken the influence of the matter, limited it to the people, and limited the scale of maritime trade through various cumbersome procedures, and finally after the death of Longqing, the influence of maritime trade declined rapidly, and the results were also stolen by the gentry groups along the coast.

As far as Liangchen knows, the maritime merchants who are now active in the coastal areas of the south are actually the spokesmen of the coastal gentry groups. They smuggled for profit before the switch, and stole the fruits of the national policy after the switch, and they became rich one by one. However, knowing that there were great benefits to maritime trade, these people firmly prevented the imperial court from opening all sea bans.

It's not a question of short-sightedness or short-sightedness, it's a question of who the money belongs to.

The money is earned by the public, it is better to fall into the pockets of one's own family, thousands of years, this is a dead knot that cannot be untied.

In the Ming Dynasty, one of the biggest tragedies was that the capable and courageous emperors were short-lived.

Zhengde, Longqing, and Tianqi, the three short-lived emperors were all the most courageous reformers.

Two of the three died, all of whom fell into the river, fell ill, and died.

It's fast, it's very fast.

Ordinary people fall down the river and come up, I'm afraid they won't die so easily.

What the hell is going on, Liangchen can only think about it.

In fact, in detail, Wanli really inherited everything from his father in his bones.

Throughout his life, Wanli was first a mine supervisor and tax envoy, and then he was very interested in overseas gold and silver, and was ready to send troops to Luzon for overseas expeditions, probably under the influence of his father.

Only in the current situation of the Ming Dynasty, if Liangchen wants to promote change and deal with the crisis ten years later, he can only take the path of the inner court. To put it mildly, the Ming Dynasty can only be saved by the father-in-law at the moment.

There is no other reason, and fathers-in-law can bypass the existing system to do things.

This, of course, requires the support of the emperor.

What Liangchen needs now is Liu Jixiang's support.

The word "support" was the two words he was most happy to hear tonight.

"The sea sails by the helmsman!"

Liangchen suddenly said this.

……

I was going to have a holiday today, but I still changed the chapter. You may not be satisfied with this chapter, but it's a point.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, I really had to be rescued by my father-in-law.

Not a joke, because the system sucks.
