Chapter 616: The Great Lantern Liu Tingyuan
Chapter 616 The Great Lantern Liu Tingyuan
The court situation was unusually "calm", and even Zhang Xianyong made a huge noise at the Midyear Festival, which did not make the court bureau much "moved".
The city of Beijing is still getting more and more lively, and the influx of people from all parts of the Ming Dynasty has made this ancient capital that has gone through hundreds of years exude an indescribable vitality.
Yang reformed the small court meeting, and did not return to the Qianqing Palace, but went directly out of the Forbidden City and went to the edge of the Taiye Pool to enjoy the coolness. At the small court meeting, Yang Reform vetoed the candidate for governor of Liaodong, and Yuan Chonghuan seemed to be the secretary of the military department It seems that it is already everyone's consensus, but Yuan Chonghuan became the secretary of the military department, so who should be the governor of Liaodong? This problem has become the main reason why Yuan Chonghuan cannot be appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of War, and there is no suitable candidate to replace Yuan Chonghuan, so the emperor will naturally not let Yuan Chonghuan be the secretary of the Ministry of War. Now Dongyu seems to have recovered some vitality on the grassland, and not everyone can go to Liaodong to be a governor.
Yang Reform has vetoed several personnel nominations, and the cabinet ministers don't seem to plan to fight with the emperor, the emperor said no, and no one is making trouble that the emperor must agree, and another person will continue to be elected by the emperor, and the court can be said to be harmonious.
Yang Gai sat on the chariot, thinking about this, it seems that this matter has to be accelerated, and it is not a matter to drag it like this. Thinking about it, he arrived at the Taiye Pool, and as soon as the cool wind blew, Yang Gengai fell asleep a little.
……
After taking a nap, Yang Gai was woken up by the cool wind again.
Wang Chengen was serving, and when he saw that the emperor was awake, he hurriedly came over to serve.
"Your Majesty is awake, but what do you want to drink to moisten your throat?" Wang Chengen said.
"No, I'll lie down again, is there anything else to do this afternoon?" Yang Gengai slept softly, it was really comfortable, and he really didn't want to move a finger.
"Back to Your Majesty, Liu Tingyuan, the former secretary of the Ministry of War, asks to see you." Wang Chengen said. Liu Tingyuan was originally a member of the imperial party, although he lost his official position, Wang Chengen still arranged him to be the first person the emperor wanted to meet.
"Oh he, how is he doing? For example, mood, behavior or something? Yang asked softly.
"Back to Your Majesty, I basically don't go out much, if you want to talk about your mood, this is not very clear, at least there is no bad mood about him." Wang Chengen replied.
"Oh, let him come to me." Yang Reform said, arranging a way back for the people of the imperial party is also an important job, although compared with today's major events, it is nothing, but Yang Reform knows that many times, a good reputation will bring great convenience to his own work, although Liu Tingyuan was impeached and he asked for it, but Yang Reform could not abandon him casually.
"Slave obeys!" Wang Chengen agreed.
……
Liu Tingyuan entered the palace this time, did not wear official uniforms, dressed as an ordinary scholar, seemed to be preoccupied, now the wind in Beijing is treacherous, even if he is not the secretary of the military department to stay at home all day, he also knows that something big will happen, the emperor arranged the way for him before, Liu Tingyuan has been thinking about what to do, to be a "legend" arranged by the emperor, or to ask the emperor to arrange an easy errand? I don't know if the emperor will win this time when he fights with those people, if the emperor loses, he is only afraid that he will be liquidated, I am afraid that it will not be as simple as stepping down, or jumping out when the situation is not clear now, maybe he doesn't have to worry about this matter.
"Sinner Liu Tingyuan knocks to see Your Majesty!" Liu Tingyuan saluted the emperor with a heavy heart.
"Excuse me, get up." Yang Gengai stood up from his chair at this time.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen!" Liu Tingyuan said.
"The Qing family has not yet been convicted, but there is no need to be a sinner." Yang Gengai said with a smile.
"Your Majesty! ...... "Liu Tingyuan saw the emperor, remembered all kinds of things to do with the emperor, and immediately became bitter in his heart, how happy it was to follow the emperor to do things, but unfortunately, his foundation was not very clean, even if he had the support of the emperor, he couldn't do it for a long time, if he knew that he could have this life, why did he do those things with unclean hands and feet in the first place? Seeing that the emperors are now successful in the future, but he can only stop in the middle of the road, it is really not a taste, and tears come out.
"Well, how are you thinking about the future?" Yang Gengai saw that Liu Tingyuan's eyes watered as soon as he came, sighed, and comforted.
"Your Majesty! ......" Liu Tingyuan cried even more, regretting that he was not so indulgent and domineering at the beginning, otherwise, it would be a different situation now. ,
"Okay, don't cry at Liu Qing's family, as the saying goes, where you fall, you have to get up from there, now that the second-grade military department is gone, let's do it back in the future, let the world see the ability of Liu Qing's family." Yang reformed and persuaded with good words.
"......, the minister is sorry for His Majesty's cultivation and disappointed His Majesty's expectations......" Liu Tingyuan cried even more bitterly when he thought of the sad place.
“…… It seems that the Qing family is reluctant to go to the Great Ryukyu? If you don't want to go, then forget it, I can arrange you to go to a closer place, and it's not bad to go to Liaodong, but if you go to Liaodong, your achievements may not be able to catch up with Daliuqiu, Liaodong, it's impossible to give you a promotion every year! If you want to climb up from Pin again, it's quite ......difficult," Yang Gengai said after Liu Tingyuan was almost crying. The path formulated for Liu Tingyuan at the beginning was based on the fact that the Great Ryukyu side would continue to upgrade and the colony would continue to expand, because the Great Ryukyu belonged to the "outer land", which could be easier to operate, unlike Liaodong, which was a lost land, everyone knew about that side, and paid special attention to it, if you want to get up, it is quite difficult, not to mention that Liaodong may not be able to catch up with the war every year, and it is even more difficult to be promoted. Yang Reform also wants Liu Tingyuan to become a living example of propaganda "foreign land", although this person is a little indecent, but he is also his own person, and he is easy to use, and he wants to expand his territory or something in the future, there are "henchmen" here, and there is no need to make a big splash, of course, he does not force Liu Tingyuan.
"......" Liu Tingyuan has also been entangled in this matter, it stands to reason that the path arranged by the emperor for him is indeed very attractive, and he can get back up in a few years, and appear in the eyes of the world with a new attitude, which undoubtedly proves that he Liu Tingyuan is capable, he can be regarded as washing away the previous shame, and can be an official in a dignified manner, and he is afraid that no one will attack him with the previous things, this kind of "killing back" to prove his own thing, can indeed be called the word "legend", although this achievement cannot be compared with Sun, Xu, Bi and others, can be regarded as a small achievement, at least it is stronger than the current "old man who wears sin and dies", and when others talk about him Liu Tingyuan, they have to give him a thumbs up and say admiration. Of course, when you go to Da Liuqiu, you may face all kinds of accidents, and when you go there, you also have to do things, all kinds of tiredness and suffering, it is basically expected that the emperor will not pay attention to a useless person.
"Your Majesty, the minister......" Liu Tingyuan was even more difficult. To go or not to go? The future is beautiful, but the process must be hard, he is just a criminal minister who has lost his office, the emperor cares about him so much, and arranges a way out for him, that is the emperor's good, but the emperor cannot pay attention to him all the time, and it is impossible to arrange various ways for him all the time. can call him into the palace to talk, it is because the emperor is very kind to him.
“…… Your Majesty, the minister is willing! Liu Yanyuan gritted his teeth and agreed, after this village, there will be no such shop, the emperor can't always take his affairs to heart, if he hesitates and is vague, I'm afraid that the emperor will also dislike him, since the emperor has put down his words and asked him to come back as an official to show the world, presumably His Majesty also has a strategy, and he will not blame him, otherwise, directly let him be a rich man, how can it be so troublesome? Liu Tingyuan believes in the emperor's credibility, the emperor will not promise easily, since he can promise him, then he is willing to take this road. With the eyes of people everywhere in the future, it is better to fight it now.
"Okay, since the Qing family agreed, then this matter, I will arrange it, the Qing family is from Jinshi, even if you lose your official position, this fame is still there, it is easy to move, although there were some stains in the past, but now I have demoted you overseas, this is also an extremely severe punishment, and it can be regarded as a clear calculation of the previous things, and in the future, it will be a clean and innocent official, and the Qing family will go, maybe you can earn a lot of sympathy......" Yang Gaiai said with a smile. It is foreseeable that there will be a lot of big moves in the South China Sea in the future, and sending a former "henchman" over at this time can be regarded as an early layout. This guy who was born as a scholar and went overseas as a scholar of the military department is undoubtedly a big lantern, which will definitely illuminate the fog overseas and make the eyes of the world, especially the scholars, look overseas.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" decided to go to Daliuqiu, Liu Tingyuan was a lot more relaxed, and he could be regarded as having a sense of pride in his heart, don't look at how "miserable" he is today, he will definitely impress the world in the future. ,
"The Qing family will prepare for it in the next few days, and if they have free time, they will read more of the training materials of the new army, and be more familiar with this aspect of operations, so that they can be used in the future, and when they pass through Shanghai, they will stay there for a while to learn how to live in the open sea, these two points, the Qing family must be attentive, overseas is not as good as inland, many habits have to be changed, otherwise, it is impossible to live overseas." Yang Reform urged again. Yang Reform is not afraid that this guy doesn't understand the war nonsense, and it shouldn't be difficult to bully those natives with a flintlock pistol, where to let him go, purely to let him brush up on experience, this is incomparable with going to Liaodong, in case this guy really wants to go to Liaodong, Yang Reform is still afraid that he will have some accidents and poke what kind of basket.
"Your Majesty cares about ......" Liu Tingyuan also sighed in his heart and thanked him. From now on, I will say goodbye to this world of flowers.
……
After sending Liu Tingyuan away, Yang Gai closed his eyes and thought for a long time, this matter had to be arranged for Liu Tingyuan.
"Ome." Yang shouted.
"The slave is here." Wang Chengen hurriedly agreed.
"Go and invite Shi Fenglai, I have something to order." Yang Gai said. Shi Fenglai is his own mouthpiece, and this kind of thing naturally has to be done through him.
"Slave obeys!" Wang Chengen agreed.
……
After a short time, Shi Feng arrived, and after arriving, he immediately saluted the emperor respectfully.
"Chen Shi Feng is here to see Your Majesty!" But he didn't prostrate, he just bowed.
"Hehe, you're welcome, Shoufu is busy?" Yang Gengai asked with a smile.
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister has nothing to do, but His Majesty has something to tell the minister?" Shi Fenglai hurriedly said.
"Hehe, I do have two things for you to do, the first is that this year's sweet potatoes should also be harvested, this matter is presided over by you, it is your political achievements, you have to be attentive! It is necessary to count the results of planting sweet potatoes in various places as soon as possible, otherwise, won't your achievements be wasted? "Yang Reform came up and said this, urging Shi Feng to hurry up and get some results.
“…… Your Majesty Xie, Your Majesty Xie's ......" Shi Fenglai didn't expect the emperor to ask him about this, this is urging him to come up with results as soon as possible! This year, so much silver is invested, it is difficult to think of no results, this is the emperor's political achievement that the emperor bought him with real money, this really has to be attentive, Shi Fenglai immediately smiled and hurriedly thanked him, the whole person was like eating mì, he finally had a good political achievement.
"In this matter, Shoufu must be attentive to the results of planting sweet potatoes as quickly as possible, the promotion of those who should be promoted, and the rewards that should be commended, otherwise, this person's heart will be scattered, and it will be difficult to implement any national policy in the future." Yang Gai said with a smile, urging Shi Fenglai to hurry up and get the results of planting sweet potatoes, otherwise, even if there is an official position vacant, it is impossible to keep it for you all the time!
"The minister's decree, the minister has also been paying attention to this matter, the sweet potatoes in many places have begun to be harvested, and some are waiting to be harvested, and the results can be counted soon, Your Majesty can rest assured, it will not be delayed for too long......" Shi Fenglai saw that the emperor urged him to implement the achievements as soon as possible, and immediately nodded quickly like a chicken pecking rice, this achievement can be regarded as falling on his head.
"That's good, urge as soon as possible...... Yang Reform urged again.
“…… This is the first thing, the second thing, it's about Liu Yanyuan...... "Yang Reform said the first thing, and began to talk about the second thing.
"Liu Yanyuan? ...... "Shi Fenglai doesn't understand."
"Yes, Liu Yanyuan, I am going to demote him to Daliuqiu, let him go there to do a border inspection, and start over with the petty officials of Yipin, you can arrange this matter." Yang Gai said.
"Uh......, Ryukyu ...... "......Shi Fenglai was petrified on the spot, and his first feeling was that he demoted the Shangshu of the second product overseas to inspect the product, this Liu Yanyuan didn't know how much he offended the emperor, and the emperor hated him so much?
“…… Your Majesty, this seems to be ......, Your Majesty, I can't help it! Liu Yanyuan, even if he made a mistake and ruined His Majesty's business, His Majesty must not treat him like this! There is no merit and hard work, and if this is spread, it will be a great damage to Your Majesty's prestige! Shi Feng came back to his senses and immediately persuaded the emperor, no matter in that aspect, he had to persuade the emperor.
"No, no, no, Shoufu may have misunderstood what I mean, I said to belittle him, not really to belittle him, I don't hate him, he just came to talk to me, I mean, now Liu Yanyuan has a stain on him, if he wants to make a difference, I'm afraid it won't work, I intend to let him go overseas to sharpen himself, start as a petty official, and become a member of the dynasty again, but to show the world ......" Yang Reform explained. ,
"Ahh ...... "Shi Fenglai is petrified."
"Don't worry, I have communicated with Liu Yanyuan about this matter, and he also volunteered to go to Daliuqiu, and he doesn't want to be depressed like this, and intends to show those who impeached him." Yang Gengai explained with a smile.
"Uh...... Your Majesty, this, this...... Seem...... It's not right...... "Shi Fenglai didn't know what to say, this kind of thing was beyond the limit of his imagination, and the second-grade official could still do it again step by step after being demoted?" This may be the same in the entire Ming Dynasty, Liu Yanyuan is not an ordinary resignation, nor is it a retirement, it is a crime to get rid of the official, to return to the court, how easy is it?
"Don't worry, I know this matter in my heart, or in a few years, Liu Yanyuan will be able to get back up, and I will naturally not harm his ......," Yang Gai said.
"Get up in a few years? ......" Shi Fenglai couldn't understand it anymore.
"The development momentum of Da Liuqiu is very good, the county can become a state in a few years, and the state can become a government in a few years, and this county becomes a government, and this official will naturally have to be promoted, so it is not ......difficult to do it again," Yang explained with a smile.
"Ahh ...... "Shi Fenglai heard this, his mind finally came back to his senses, he naturally knew about the affairs of Da Liuqiu, and he was very familiar with it, now immigrants, most of them are going over there, the cost of immigration to that side is much cheaper, roughly only about three or four percent of immigrants to Dongting Lake, millions of immigrants a year past, it is indeed not impossible to become a state, a government, or even a province in a few years, this official is naturally promoted very quickly, the emperor is indeed not telling lies.
"Do you understand what I mean?" Yang Gengai saw Shi Fenglai's sudden realization and asked.
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister understands, Your Majesty is going to re-cultivate Liu Yanyuan, Your Majesty has good intentions, and the minister is wrong to blame Your Majesty." Shi Fenglai also roughly understood what the emperor meant, probably to let Liu Tingyuan go over there to mix officials, one million a year has passed, as long as a few years, there will be millions of people in that place, so many people, even compared to the provinces with less population, after all, there are only more than 60 million people in the Ming Dynasty, if there are ten percent of people, it is six million, there are so many people, enough to seal the province, then it is not two capitals and thirteen provinces, but two capitals and fourteen provinces.
"Well, it's good to understand, the statement of this matter is that Liu Tingyuan made a mistake, and I punished him, but I have merit, and demoting him to overseas as a petty official is considered a punishment for him, and the previous things will be written off, I hope he will change his way and be an official again......" Yang Reform said what he meant, Yang Reform believed that as soon as this kind of thing that exploded people's eyeballs came out, overseas affairs would definitely become a hot spot spread by everyone, and the purpose of this matter would be achieved.
"Obey the order!" Shi Fenglai took his order seriously.
……
A few days passed.
It's a small pilgrimage again.
Shi Fenglai had already made preparations, and the first thing he said was that in this court that was too "calm", it set off a lot of bō, and some people really couldn't sit still.
"Ahh Relegated to Ryukyu to do inspection? Not only were the imperial party surprised, but even Han Yi and Cao Yubian were also surprised, Cao Yubian even shouted, the result of this kind of treatment, in any case, also exceeded their expectations, they only thought about letting Liu Yanyuan step down and get out, but they never thought of demoting Liu Yanyuan to that place, the emperor's hand ...... really exceeded their expectations.
The small court, which was originally calm, was immediately hot.
Among the emperors, those who understand are not so panicked, and those who don't understand look at the emperor with panicked eyes, the emperor is too ruthless, but depending on the situation, it's not like ah!
The opposition is even more puzzled, how can this be done?
Shi Fenglai's plan to deal with Liu Tingyuan, there are several in total, and some of them are directly deprived of their official positions, which can be regarded as normal treatment; There are also those who distribute frontiers, and this is dealt with very severely; There are also those who let him resign himself, after all, he still has a lot of credit, and this is considered a better treatment. These are the usual rules for dealing with offenders, but today, Shi Fenglai added a degraded official to it, and Yang Reform directly chose a degraded official, and as soon as he demoted the official, he was demoted to an overseas place like Daliuqiu.
The people at the small court meeting are also human spirits, from the initial shock, soon woke up, everyone is familiar with the affairs of the Great Ryukyu, knowing the future development of the Great Ryukyu, naturally also knew the meaning of the emperor, although it was clear that it was degraded, and it fell sharply, but in fact, it was to help Liu Tingyuan again.
"Your Majesty, don't ......" This small pilgrimage meeting, like boiling water, immediately became noisy, and some people objected. ,
"Oh, Cao Qing's family, why can't you?" Yang asked Gengai.
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that since he is a criminal official, he can be directly deprived of his official position, and there is no need to demote the official again, which is not in harmony with reason...... Cao Yubian immediately said, his original intention was only to oust Liu Tingyuan from power, and he never thought of demoting the official.
"Oh, is it? Shi Shoufu, what do you say? Yang Gengai asked Shi Fenglai, but he didn't mean to come forward.
"Returning to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that there is nothing wrong with this matter, didn't the general constitution also say it? There is a punishment for the fault, there is merit to be a general, the merit is a merit, the past is a fault, the former military department secretary Liu Yanyuan has had, naturally it should be severely punished, but if there is merit, Your Majesty should also be rewarded, Your Majesty disposes of it like this, and there is both merit and demerit, and the minister thinks that there is nothing wrong with it. Shi Fenglai had already prepared and said immediately.
"This, Your Majesty, this is not appropriate, my dynasty has never had such a severe demotion of officials, from the second-grade Shangshu to the nine-grade inspection, this is a seven-grade fourteen-level gap! Your Majesty, this is not reasonable...... "Cao Yubian hurriedly came out to defend himself, Liu Tingyuan was impeached by him, and now that people are impeached, the way to deal with it is too unbelievable, too eye-catching, and those who don't know think that it was his Cao Yubian's bad and assassinated Liu Tingyuan.
"What's wrong? Cao Qing's family means that you can't be demoted, right? The secretary told me, is there a precedent for demotion in our court? Yang Gengai asked with a smile, still didn't mean to end up with himself, but let them say it themselves, as for whether it is possible to demote officials, although demotion is not the norm in the Ming Dynasty, but there is definitely a precedent to follow, since there is a precedent, it is easy to do.
When the emperor asked, Cao Yubian was instantly speechless, the imperial court does rarely degrade officials, but it is definitely not an exception to do something wrong and degrade officials, and it is a lot to say, that is to say, it is not impossible for the emperor to degrade officials.
"Back to Your Majesty, although there are fewer degraded officials in our dynasty, there are still precedents of degrading officials, most of them have made mistakes in office, but they have not reached the point of resignation, so they must be punished by degrading officials, but few are so degraded." Zhang Ruitu explained this problem, not who Zhang Ruitu helped, it was just a matter of common sense, as a scholar, he should be obliged to answer questions to the emperor.
"Oh, you can still demote the official! Then let's depreciate it......" Yang said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, don't ......"
"Your Majesty, don't ......"
"Your Majesty, this is not ......" the opposition immediately objected.
Yang Gai pressed it with his hand, and everyone immediately quieted down.
"Let's talk about it, don't make any noise, Han Qing's family, I can't say it when I see you, then you can talk about it first." Yang Gai said.
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this is unacceptable, this punishment is too heavy, but it seems that Your Majesty is narrow-minded, it is better to go to work, since you have merit, you can also leave Liu Yanyuan's meritorious name in your body, so, even if you have been punished, it can be regarded as a reward." Han Yi immediately said what he thought.
Yang Gai did not immediately say what he wanted to do, but let everyone else speak.
What those who oppose the demotion of officials say is nothing more than that the punishment is too heavy and too harsh, but it seems that the court is narrow-minded.
Cao Yubian heard a sound, only to feel that his lungs were about to explode, they impeached Liu Yanyuan at the beginning, but the impeachment was fatal, and it was finally impeached, but in the end, he had to intercede for this guy, none of the people in the imperial party came out to oppose it, they must be in favor of this kind of severe punishment, they have become the people who say good things to Liu Yanyuan, what is this?
Yang Reform pressed his hand again, ending everyone's discussion.
"Actually, I also think that Han Qing's family is reasonable, it is more appropriate to go to the official and leave a meritorious name in the body, which is also in line with the tradition of our dynasty, however, I am very envious of the many practices of the former Song Dynasty, and for those who have made mistakes or have political discord, give a certain amount of room for relaxation, don't make it like a castration party, in that way, it will become a party dispute, and the harm of party contention, I won't say much, so I do intend to try the practice of the former Song Dynasty......" Yang Reform said with a smile, casually making up a reason. In fact, the reason why the Song Dynasty was able to do this, and the Ming Dynasty couldn't, is actually related to one thing, that is, salary, the Song Dynasty officials can live a good life on salary, so compared to the Ming Dynasty, it is much more honest, many officials live on salary, if there is no official position, there will be no salary, that is really to smash people's jobs, so, the Song Dynasty can engage in demotion of officials, and the Ming Dynasty obviously can't, officials do not rely on salaries to live, and there is no such scruples, so the Ming Dynasty should learn from the Song Dynasty to degrade officials, The premise is that the wages of the Ming Dynasty can rise, at least to the extent that officials can live a good life by their salaries, and then there may be soil for degrading officials. Of course, this is just a reason for Yang Reform to talk casually. ,
As soon as the emperor said this, many people's minds were confused, what is going on with this statement? Is it good or bad?
"Your Majesty, this is not appropriate! ......" Cao Yubian immediately objected. Let's not talk about the good or bad of this degrading system, just dealing with Liu Yanyuan's matter, if it is not handled according to their methods, it will be extremely unfavorable to them.
"Okay, don't talk about it anymore, Liu Yanyuan should be severely punished if he is wrong, and if he has merit, he should be rewarded, the court only needs to do these two things, as for how to punish and how to reward, this, it doesn't seem to be the point, the Qing family should not be entangled in this point anymore, could it be that the punishment from the second grade to the product is not severe enough?" Yang Reform casually threw a smoke bomb, and he was not ready to ink with Cao Yubian anymore, and directly went to the Holy Judgment.
The others didn't know if they were confused by this fresh statement thrown to the emperor, or if they had no rhetoric, and the voice of opposition weakened.
Cao Yubian said, the emperor's words are already very clear to this extent, they have the right to impeach, if the impeachment is true, it should indeed be severely punished, but how to punish it, it is not up to them to manage, they can make suggestions, but in the end it still has to be ruled by the emperor, the emperor blames them for overstepping their authority, if they have the final say on everything, then what do you want the emperor to do? To a certain extent, the emperor can rule freely, which is a normal thing, if you still dwell on this, it will undoubtedly be a domineering, and the reputation of the powerful minister will be deducted. And demoted Liu Yanyuan from the second grade to the grade, this still counts the credit in it, if it is not a severe punishment, it is obviously unreasonable. Of course, they all know that the place in Daryukyu will develop greatly in the future, although it seems to be degraded now, but in fact, the emperor has opened another door for Liu Yanyuan, and the emperor is going to slap them in the face!
……
After all, the inspection of a former military secretary who can be demoted to the barren land overseas to make products is the news of the explosion anyway, and it suddenly became the talk of the entire Beijing city.
Cao Yubian and they also made a final effort, and even returned the emperor's order, but the next day's Di Bao published an interview with Liu Yanyuan, Liu Yanyuan claimed that he was willing to accept this punishment, redeem his merits, and be willing to go to Daliuqiu, for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, he could ignore his personal life and death, and serve the court with death, and his words were high-sounding. The person who returned the emperor's order was immediately made out of the inside and outside and was not a person. Cao Yubian was also angry.
This matter, fermented until the next day, and it has completely become the most concerned thing in Beijing. After all, it's a new thing.
In countless teahouses in Beijing, they are all talking about this matter, some inquiring about the inside story, some commenting on right and wrong, and more people are thinking, why is the emperor so ruthless and wants to demote Liu Yanyuan to Ryukyu? Isn't Liu Yanyuan an imperial party? Why do Han Ge Lao and them oppose the demotion of officials?
"Old Master, tell me, what is this for? Why am I so confused? Isn't Master Liu His Majesty's person? Why is Your Majesty so ruthless and relegated him to a place where birds don't? Daryukyu is far away from our Daming, I heard that there are all savages...... "In a teahouse, a person asked puzzled, this question is also a question that many people want to ask, why is it the other way around?
This old master, in the teahouse in Beijing, is also a little famous, and he can often get some gossip inside information that ordinary people can't get, and the explanation is decent, so there are many people who go to the teahouse to listen to him report, and the teahouse owner values this God of Wealth more and more, and with him, he will not worry about business.
This old master's condition is much better than before, and his face, which used to be dark, has now become ruddy, and his dry face can also see some luster.
"Yes! Old master, why is Master Liu willing to go again? It stands to reason that you shouldn't go, right? Then the elders of Han Ge, why do you want to intercede with Master Liu Yanyuan again? We're all confused, there seems to be something going on here! Are the old men who are officials hiding it from us? Someone else asked. This question was also immediately approved by many people, and those who came here to drink tea were nothing more than to listen to gossip, and they were willing to let go of this kind of thing, and immediately let the old master interpret the inside story.
"Ahem...... The old man with a ruddy face coughed a few times and was ready to speak. Everyone quieted down, looked at the old master, and waited for him to speak. ,
“…… This matter, in fact, the key is to be involved with something, that's why this thing is so strange, the reason why you can't understand it is because you don't understand this matter, if you think about it, you will naturally understand it......" The old master still shook his head and said, but now the swing is much smaller than before. After saying a few words, he immediately picked up the teacup and drank tea, whetting people's appetites.
"Old Master, say it quickly!" Someone urged.
"Yes! Old Master, you should speak quickly! What the hell is going on? Someone couldn't resist the attraction of this gossip and began to urge.
“…… Old Master, please drink today, you can say it quickly...... "Someone simply sacrificed a killer weapon."
"Ahem...... the old master calmly put down the teacup, coughed a few more times, and began to speak.
"This matter, in fact, is related to one thing, that is, immigration, don't look at the place of Daliuqiu is a barren land, but in a few years, that place is a land of fish and rice, and now Your Majesty has sent Master Liu there, in fact, he is cultivating Master Liu." When the old master saw that someone had asked for a drink, he immediately said it.
"Oh, old master, can you elaborate?" Someone urged.
"This is not simple, you calculate it yourself, now I immigrate millions every year, and where did I move to? Isn't it the Great Ryukyus? Not to mention a million a year in that place, there are still hundreds of thousands, or a few years, it will be a population of millions! How many people am there now? There are only more than 60 million people on the register, and if you calculate, it won't take a few years, will it still be a barren land? I have two capitals and thirteen provinces in the Ming Dynasty, divided into them, and each place is only four or five million, and the Great Ryukyu only needs a few years of hard work, but it can be worth the land of a province, so you can understand? The old master immediately explained the reason, and as for why he knew it so clearly, only the old master himself knew.
"Oh......"
"Wow......"
"I see, I see, I ...... so"
Everyone began to say that this is the case, if you want to say this, everyone understands, now it is still a barren land, and it can be compared with the province in a few years, doesn't that mean that this official will also be promoted? No wonder the emperor degraded Master Liu vigorously, while Han Ge Lao and they were not allowed to degrade, the roots are all here!
More people began to ask where the Great Ryukyus were, how big the land, and how could they afford to support so many people? The old master explained all this with a smile, what three crops a year, where a chopstick can grow rice with a random chopstick, no need to wear cotton clothes, no need to be frozen, and talk about these benefits. As for how you know, the old master will tell you that it is written in the newspapers, and you didn't pay attention to it, but as for the truth, only the old master himself knows.
The whole city of Beijing is hotly discussing this matter, more people are beginning to be interested in this overseas thing, to say that before, although immigrants also have a great momentum, everyone has not heard of the Great Ryukyu, but more people are treated overseas with a sense of superiority, thinking that it is only those who cannot afford to eat to go to the Great Ryukyu, although the imperial court said that there is a flower, but in fact it may not be like that, everyone subconsciously denies this matter, and does not care too much about overseas affairs.
But this incident obviously broke their habitual thinking, if the place in Ryukyu is really so unbearable, and overseas is really so unbearable, can the big men rush to go there? That's a broken head, right? I heard that the emperor's decree was also returned. If there is no sweetness in this, who will believe it? Since the big men have broken their heads and rushed to go, it is obvious that the Great Ryukyu or overseas is not a barren place as they imagined.
This incident has touched a lot of wealthy people from all walks of life who come to the capital to seek a way, they know very little about the ocean in the interior, even if they have the meaning of overseas investment, but it is only the point, this is still the emperor to ensure that they can make a profit. They actually had no intention of investing overseas on a large scale, and wanted to do some business in the interior, but now the emperor and those people broke their heads and rushed to go overseas, so as to develop with the rapid development of overseas, which undoubtedly attracted their attention and aroused their interest.
People sometimes make a kind of donkey temper that doesn't go away and goes backwards. RO@。
