When Ye Hua saw Chai Rong, the emperor's face was already very ugly, and there was a hint of blue-black in the miserable white, and it seemed that another cloud of fog was shrouded in his face, perhaps the so-called dead air!

His Majesty the Emperor took medicine without authorization, and it took more than two hours for the imperial doctor to rescue him before he pulled Chai Rong back from the Ghost Gate. It's just that after this time, several imperial doctors silently sentenced the emperor to death in their hearts.

If it is just a serious thirst-quenching disease, maybe there is a year and a half of life, but the abuse of drugs has reached the point where it is difficult to control, maybe the next time you faint, you will never wake up again, maybe three days and five days, ten days and eight days, in short, it will not be more than a month.

After Ye Hua came, Chai Rong finally came to his senses, he asked the eunuch to lean on his back with a pillow, and finally sat up, and then showed an extremely desolate smile at Ye Hua, "Alas, I look like a ghost, it's ugly, right?" ”

Seeing that the emperor was weak, Ye Hua's eyes were also sour, at this moment, in his eyes, the person in front of him was not the Ninety-Five Supreme, but more of an old friend of his own.

Ye Hua had tears in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Since the sage has already handed over the overall situation to his ministers to clean up, why should he despise the dragon body so much, how can such a harmful medicine be edible!" ”

Ye Hua was reproachful, but Chai Rong didn't care, but laughed instead.

"Ye Hua, you're right, I found it myself. But I really can't feel at ease! Chai Rong sighed heavily, since he had the disease of quenching thirst, Chai Rong's physical strength had rapidly declined, so that it was difficult to support.

The medicine offered by the eunuchs is certainly harmful, but after taking it, it can alleviate the pain and lift the spirits...... After coming and going, Chai Rong became addicted and couldn't get rid of it.

After the rebels were pacified, Chai Rong really thought about it, he wanted to hand over the matter to Ye Hua for the time being, concentrate on recuperation, recover his strength, and at least hold on for a while, so as to pave the way for the prince and make the situation smooth and excessive.

People are inherently dead, Chai Rong does not have the luxury of expecting immortality, he just doesn't want to give up halfway.

In a sense, Chai Rong is a perfectionist!

But as the traitor's face was gradually revealed, Chai Rong found that he could no longer rest in peace, and this rebellion was far more complicated than imagined!

Chai Rong felt a little unconfident for the first time, he couldn't grasp the overall situation.

Losing self-confidence is far more terrible than losing health...... After a short struggle and an onset of drug addiction, Chai Rong was quickly overwhelmed and decisively chose to take the drug.

He wanted to make himself sober, even if it was only for a short time, so that he could think carefully and make a judgment, but unfortunately, he had reached the point where he ran out of oil and dried up, and it was just a pill that completely collapsed.

"Ye Hua, I want to hear what you say, what the hell is going on!"

Ye Hua did not hesitate, "Your Majesty, this rebellion is ostensibly controlled by Zhao Pu, but in fact, Zhao Pu is just a marionette...... The minister is not defending him, this person is a wolf with ambition, even if he is cut by a thousand cuts, it is not a pity to die, the minister wants to look at this matter calmly. ”

……

In fact, in Ye Hua's observation, the real rebellion began with that reciprocal ...... After returning from the expedition to the Western Regions, the huge financial gap forced Ye Hua to package his debts and go public and allow bonds to be bought and sold.

In the eyes of the time, this trick was absolutely operated by God, and he directly relied on tens of millions of debts, and by the way, he also made a lot of money by issuing debts.

But the consequences of this move are also very obvious...... Those wealthy businessmen completely turned against the court.

What is debt?

Is that the money?

Obviously not, debt is a shackle, it is slavery!

Even if the court borrows money from merchants, you will be at the mercy of merchants, otherwise, people will force you to pay debts, and you will collapse...... Ye Hua found another way, made a bond market, freed the court, and at the same time put the chain around the merchant's neck.

The emerging wealthy businessmen are rapidly increasing in strength and increasing their ambitions.

In the past, they relied on the support of the imperial court to confront the gentry, but now that the gentry are gone, they feel that the imperial court is a shackle and an obstacle to their money.

Especially the ambitious Chai Rong, and Ye Hua, who has a lot of means, are the big enemies who hinder them from doing whatever they want!

Merchants began to gather around Li Chongjin, they relied on money exchanges, formed an alliance with each other, Li Chongjin this guy has been excluded from the court, dissatisfied, he and the merchants cooperate with each other, each taking what he needs.

Then Zhao Pu discovered this huge force, and they were further mixed together...... Officials and merchants were the core forces of this rebellion.

Like octopuses, they stretched out their eight claws, gathered men in all directions, expanded their armaments, and prepared for this rebellion.

How do you evaluate this rebellion?

Ye Hua felt that the textbook a hundred years later might write like this: This was the first powerful attack of the emerging bourgeoisie and bureaucracy against the decaying imperial power, and although they failed, they contributed to the awakening of the bourgeoisie, and from then on began a tortuous but glorious great struggle......

Chai Rong was keen, and he spotted the difference in this rebellion.

In the past, he had experienced Zheng Renzhi's rebellion and Hou Jing's rebellion, and those two times were just ministers with real power, wanting to replace the emperor with a yellow robe like his predecessors.

It was a struggle between man and man.

But this time it's different, it's the money that's working behind it! It's capital!

There was an exchange of interests between Li Chongjin and the businessmen, newspapers and public opinion were bought by capital, and the generals in the army and the officials in the DPRK were also dragged into the water by capital......

Fighting with people, Chai Rong will not be afraid, but fighting with the invisible and untouchable capital power, Chai Rong feels that he is not able to catch it, the reason is very simple, he can kill people, but he can't destroy money!

No matter how you toss it, there are a few people in this world who are extremely rich, and they continue to use the financial resources in their hands to transform into a huge influence on officialdom, and then escort and contribute to their wealth.

This is not subject to human will.

Chai Rong suddenly shook his head and smiled, "Ye Hua, I have finally figured it out now, why all dynasties and dynasties have tried their best to suppress businessmen and pursue the national policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business, businessmen are not terrible, what is terrible is the money in their hands!" I gave a decree to the minister, and they may not obey it, but as long as the money is enough, they will obediently sell their lives. The so-called money leads to the divine way, and I am honestly not deceiving me! ”

Ye Hua hurriedly lowered his head, "Your Majesty is wise, and the minister is guilty...... Over the years, the minister has been promoting the development of industry and commerce, which has contributed to those people who hold wealth in their hands and do whatever they want. ”

Chai Rong shook his head, "Ye Qing, I'm not confused...... If it weren't for the encouragement of industrial and commercial development, where did the Great Zhou come from the iron cavalry and strong soldiers, and where did the billions of silver taels come from, maybe I won't be able to dominate the country until I die...... It can't sweep the four razes. It's just that if you drink and peck it, you will benefit from it, and you will also suffer from it. I can still figure this out. ”

Chai Rong raised his face, his eyes were almost blind, and he tried to shrink his pupils, but he could only see a hazy shadow.

"Ye Hua, I want to ask you, how to deal with the power of capital?"

Ye Hua took a deep breath, "This ......" He hesitated for a long time, and didn't continue, Chai Rong became impatient, "Ye Hua, I am the only friend who can enrich the country and strengthen the army together and create a prosperous industry." I'm going to die, and you still won't tell the truth? ”

Being stared at by a pair of empty eyes, Ye Hua actually had a trace of weakness.

"Your Majesty, it's not that the minister doesn't want to say it, it's just ...... The minister proposed to let the warriors take charge of the War Department and the Navy Department, and set up a staff headquarters, which was to borrow the power of the warriors to balance the civilian and wealthy merchants. As for how to deal with the merchants, the minister felt that it was better to block than to loosen ...... Or give him power! ”

Syllable!

Chai Rong slammed the dragon bed and coughed angrily.

"Ye Hua! Do you know that those people are rebels and thieves, and they don't have a good heart! ”

"Know, know!" Ye Hua smiled bitterly: "But Your Majesty also knows that there is no way to eliminate it, if you let them make waves and make trouble in the dark, who knows what will happen!" The minister felt that since this was the case, it was better to simply let them surface and control it! ”

After Ye Hua said this, he lowered his head slightly, and a long silence followed. Just when Ye Hua thought that Chai Rong had fainted again, His Majesty the Emperor finally spoke slowly.

"What are you going to do?"

"Minister...... I feel that we can refer to the model of cooperatives, elect some powerful and reputable businessmen, as representatives, participate in the government, make suggestions, and give them some status...... In this way, the merchant will not take risks, and the minister thinks that it is better to quarrel than to fight! ”

It was as silent as death again, this time it was much shorter than the last time, Chai Rong suddenly smiled, "My life is in the mist, the prince is young, you have to worry more!" ”

Ye Hua was terrified, "The minister dares not to do his best!" ”

After speaking, Ye Hua lifted his robe, made a big salute, and then withdrew from the dormitory.

As soon as Ye Hua left, the crown prince Guo Zongxun walked out quickly from behind the curtain, he first took a bowl of ginseng soup, gave it to his father, and then pulled the pillow and let Chai Rong lie down.

After a long time, Chai Rongcai chuckled and said, "Emperor, how are you as a master?" ”

Guo Zongxun did not hesitate, "Father, the master is pure and sincere, he told his father everything in his heart, based on this alone, he is a loyal minister!" ”

"Loyalist?" Chai Rong chuckled and said, "Father asked you, are there any loyal ministers in this world who force the emperor to hand over power?" He introduced warriors, and then merchants, what he wanted to do, don't you really understand? ”

Guo Zongxun grinned and insisted: "The child understands, but the child thinks that the world is becoming more and more complicated, full of confusion and chaos...... With the wisdom of his father, he is still unable to control the world. If you blindly take power and carry the world on your shoulders, you are afraid that you will not be able to bear it! ”

"Actually, in fact, Master can not say it now, he said it, it is the greatest loyalty to his father!"

Guo Zongxun's knees weakened and he knelt beside the bed...... Chai Rong lamented again and again, if he was in good health, he would definitely have to fight, Ye Hua he would not kill, but exiled this kid overseas, and when he killed the merchant to the point that he lost his armor and bloodied, he would find Ye Hua back and ask him who was right!

But the problem is that he has no spirit anymore, and his son listens to his master again...... Alas, my father is a failure!
