Gao Gong's face sank and said, "In this way, you agree with those eunuchs to control the military power?" ”

"Of course not!" Gao Gong suddenly raised his voice and said: "I have been commanding the army for many years, those eunuchs know how to lead the soldiers, if it weren't for them to gain power in the army, how could the Ming army be so corrupted?" ”

Gao Gong's face softened, and he looked at Yan Na and Zhang Juzheng. Yan Na still looks like a good old man, but he learned Luo Xin's words and said:

"It's up to the adults to decide."

Gao Gong was a little depressed, he still had some reputation in the literary world, especially this time he successfully drove away Xu Jie, which made his reputation in the literary world a leap forward, but he really didn't have any reputation in the army, in Daming, in the cabinet, three famous people in the army, two of them sat in front of him, one was Luo Xin, and the other was Ma Fang.

In terms of right and wrong, Gao Gong was able to give up the suppression and exclusion of Luo Xin in his heart, but when he saw Luo Xin put on an indifferent look, he sighed in his heart, knowing that he had suppressed and excluded Luo Xin ruthlessly, and Luo Xin was a kind of resistance and counterattack. But he still tried his best:

"This unhealthy trend must be banned, and we must not allow the Zhengde Rebellion to recur."

Luo Xin felt Gao Gong's gaze look over, but he still drooped his eyelids, pretending not to see it at all. Gao Gong sighed in his heart, knowing that there was no reason for this matter to be forcibly pressed on Luo Xin's head. Luo Xin is in charge of the Ministry of Industry, and the affairs of the Ministry of War belong to Ma Fang, and he is the first assistant and the general manager. Luo Xin has good reasons to refuse, and he and Ma Fang will gain a reputation for being incompetent. Then he looked at Ma Fangdao:

"Master Ma, you are in charge of the military, so I'll leave this matter to you."

Ma Fang's face showed bitterness and said: "If it is simply a matter in the army, no matter how difficult it is, I can handle it properly." But this is related to the inner court, and you also know that now the household department is forced by those eunuchs to pretend to be sick at home, and the Ministry of Industry is also forced by the eunuchs to almost return to his hometown. ”

Speaking of this, Ma Fang sighed and said: "This is not a matter of whether it can be handled at all, but Your Majesty, he protects those eunuchs without any reason at all, how do you let me deal with it?" ”

Gao Gong said helplessly mixed with anger towards Ma Fang in his heart: "Could it be that you, the secretary of the military department, watched the military power fall into the hands of the eunuchs?" ”

Ma Fang groaned for a moment with a bitter face and said, "Elder Ge, I can't carry this matter alone, so you better ask someone to help me." ”

"Who, please?" Gao Gong's eyes lit up: "As long as you can solve the affairs in the army, you bring it up, I will ask." ”

Gao Gong's heart knew very well that no matter who Ma Fang invited or what conditions that person needed, he would agree, as long as he didn't let him rush to the front and directly clash with His Majesty.

"Lord Luo!" Ma Fang said.

Gao Gong's face changed slightly, but before he could speak, Luo Xin was the first to speak:

"Master Ma, this is originally your business, aren't you harming me? It is justifiable that you are in charge of the military department and meddle in the affairs of the five military camps, but the Ministry of Industry, which I am in charge of, asked me to meddle in the military, doesn't this make me cause trouble?

You also know how terrible those eunuchs are, even if I am Your Majesty's teacher, I can't stand those eunuchs talking about my rights and wrongs in front of Your Majesty every day, you have also heard that three people become tigers, right? ”

Originally, Gao Gong was still a little hesitant, he knew that if he insisted on Luo Xin's participation, Luo Xin might not participate, but he would definitely put forward conditions. It's just that now Gao Gong can still take care of these, not afraid of Luo Xin's conditions, but afraid that Luo Xin will not care.

As Ma Fang said, Luo Xin's influence in the army is higher than Ma Fang's, and Luo Xin has a close relationship with Emperor Longqing, so he said:

"Lord Luo, although you are in charge of the Ministry of Industry, you are also an important minister of the cabinet, and this matter still needs Lord Luo to stand up."

Luo Xin shook his head and said with a sad face: "Ge Lao, you also know that I am now carrying out the reform of the Ministry of Industry......

"I'll give you 500,000 taels of silver."

Luo Xin rolled his eyes and said, "Elder Ge, this reform!" ”

"One million taels, no more."

Luo Xin thought for a while and said, "Give me a piece of land, and I will build a academy." ”

"You want to build a academy?" High arch surprised.

"Well, but it's not a academy in the sense of the current Ming Dynasty, it's not mainly for the imperial examination, but for science and technology."

"Just teach those tricks?"

"You...... So let's put it, even if it's it. Luo Xin's face showed helplessness. Shinong industry and commerce, Daming simply looked down on the work.

Gao Gong's eyes rolled, Luo Xin wants to play big, and he also wants to build a academy for those strange tricks, I am afraid that he will be sprayed to death by Shilin. Hehe...... This is my chance to kick Luo Xin out of the cabinet. Immediately clapped the decision:

"Okay, but there is no land in the city, only outside the city, wait for the old man to find it for you." How about solving it for you today? ”

"Thank you, Elder." Luo Xin said with a smile on his face, "I will assist Master Ma." ”

"This matter is still dominated by you, after all, you are the deputy assistant of the cabinet." High arch condensed.

Luo Xin waved his hand and said: "I am the master, the name is not right, and Ma Da is in charge of the military department." Ge Lao, don't worry. If you don't do it, you must do your best. ”

"It's good!" Gao Gong finally agreed.

After the meeting ended, Luo Xin went to Ma Fang's duty room and studied with Ma Fang all morning. In the afternoon, Luo Xin came to the Ministry of Industry, and when he heard that Luo Xin was coming, Lin Yuntong, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, greeted him. The two of them entered Lin Yuntong's duty room, Luo Xin asked Lin Yuntong to summon Zhou Yu to come, and after the three of them sat down, Luo Xin said:

"Lord Lin, I have always advocated the reform of the Ministry of Industry, and I know you are against it, but this reform must be implemented."

Lin Yuntong looked down on craftsmen, especially those like him. But now that he is the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, he also wants to make a career. Otherwise, he would not have defected to Xu Jie. Now that Xu Jie has returned to his hometown, when he leaves, let them keep a low profile, and wait for Gao Gong to compete with Luo Xin, and they will benefit from the fishermen and support Zhang Juzheng.

But Lin Yuntong is really different from Ge Shouli, Wang Guoguang and others. The difference is that he has always been an imperial envoy, and after the recovery, he served as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, so the traces of the imperial envoy are very strong, that is to say, the morale of the famous is very strong. To put it bluntly, it is very idealistic, and to put it more cheesy, it is a secondary two patient with a very large grade.

Therefore, I am also very unaccustomed to Xu Jie. Although he is grateful to Xu Jie's revenge on him, if he wants to be Xu Jie's lackey, it will definitely not work. In this way, he was not so resentful of Luo Xin and Gao Gong. On the contrary, for Gao Gong and Luo Xin, there is still some appreciation in my heart.
