Chapter 0488
In the past, there was a difference between Fujin and Gege. Tomato - ''.x'f'q'x-s'
Now that they have entered the palace, they are all princes, and they are all born.
This noble man is of the Nehulu clan. Manchurian surname. Li now looks like he has a very humble background.
So, if this child is born, the most anxious is the Li family, right?
It's a pity that Li is not a person who will deal with children after all.
But don't worry, it's a laborious task for this child to grow up step by step, not overnight.
There's a lot of time.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the fourth master was busy again.
Because, Rong Beile and Qian Xianlin, who went to Liangguang, sent back a secret letter. He said that Guangxi is acceptable, but there are continuous disasters in Guangdong.
The coastal areas are even more severe.
A few years ago, the imperial court banned the sea, and many fishermen could not go out to sea to fish, so they could only turn to farming for a living.
But it's not suitable for farming, so it's really not enough to eat every year.
When Kali was the governor of Liangguang before, he was not unaware of this situation.
It's just that even if you have to provide disaster relief food and silver every year, it is not enough.
What's more, what official can still get an excellent rating when he asks for silver every year?
Therefore, there are many people who conceal it and do not report it.
The position of the prefect of Huizhou alone has changed 17 times in ten years. But those who have some ability and can move are gone.
In a place where the people don't have enough to eat every year, how can they make political achievements?
What's more, even an official who is willing to endure hardships is difficult, and for thousands of years, fishing villages have survived by the sea.
If they are not allowed to go to sea, they will not be able to farm, and they will not be allowed to farm, won't it be difficult?
In fact, this kind of thing is the same along the coast of Fujian.
After the fourth master saw the superstition, he thought about it for a long time.
The next morning, the fourth master threw out this topic: "Everyone is the pillar of my Qing Dynasty, what do you think about these things?" ”
"Your Majesty, this coastal ban on the sea is for the sake of guarding against the Zheng family's father and son, and it is also the rampant bandits at sea, so it has to be so." An old minister stepped forward.
"The minister thought that the first emperor had come up with this policy, which was extremely wise." The new waiter of the Ministry of Rites is a step forward for Qin Zhenghai who has not returned to Beijing for a few days.
"But, at one time, at another. Back then, the first emperor forbade the sea, which was really a helpless move. ”
"At that time, the Zheng family was rampant, and my Great Qing Naval War was still a little weak, so it is no wonder that I was in the Great Qing Dynasty. We all know that the Manchurians fight on horseback. Seeing that someone was staring, Qin Zhenghai hurriedly said: "But in the Ming Dynasty, the Central Plains people did not succeed in naval battles, which is really a drawback for hundreds of years. ”
"At that time, the war between the three feudatories in the south had just subsided, the Mongols in the north were eyeing each other, and the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty was constantly in turmoil. For several years in a row, the drought continued to ......"
"It is not an exaggeration to say that there are internal and external troubles. At that time, the sea was forbidden, but it was the first emperor's wise decision. But at this time, my Qing Dynasty is prosperous, there is no war, and the Zheng family is also safe and self-contained, so it is time to open the sea ban and let the coastal people return to their past lives. Those who fish go to fish, and those who go to sea go to sea, they don't have to force them to farm, but after a few years, they will be restored, isn't it much better than the imperial court's disaster relief every year? ”
Qin Zhenghai's words can be regarded as saving Kangxi's face.
You can't say that Kangxi Ye was choking back then, right?
"Well, what Qin Shilang said is right, what else do you have to say?" The fourth master smiled.
Everyone is smart, and the emperor's various actions are intended to open the sea ban, not to mention that what Qin Zhenghai said is also the same truth.
There are a few officials who do not approve of the opening of the forbidden sea because of their own interests, but they do not dare to say it clearly.
I had to say good things.
"Since you all feel justified, let's do it, and send a holy decree down first, and announce to the coastal people that the forbidden sea will be opened soon, so that they can rest assured." The fourth master said.
"Yes, the emperor is wise!" Everyone knelt down and said.
"Okay, it's like this today, Qin Shilang, you stay, and Ming Xiang also stays." The fourth master thought for a while: "This matter still needs a prince to do." Old Five, you stay. ”
In fact, the fourth master thinks that the fifth master is not a suitable person.
But if you don't choose him, the third child is even more inappropriate, the seventh body is not suitable, the eighth one, the fourth master thinks he is a little too gentle.
"Okay, let's disperse, and you go to the imperial study with me."
Others are just that, Mingzhu is very surprised, and there is a complicated and indescribable feeling.
He also thought that after the first emperor went and Prince Zhi was sent to the northwest to garrison, he, an old minister, would be useless.
Unexpectedly, the emperor actually wanted to use him, and it seems that he is still entrusted with a heavy task!
In the imperial study, Su Peisheng took a few people to tea, and everyone was given to sit.
"I intend to let go of the sea ban, but this matter is not just a matter of letting go. The first emperor forbade the sea at that time, because piracy was rampant, and because of the Zheng family on Taiwan Island, these hidden dangers are still there today. Although I can open the forbidden sea, I can't ignore the lives of the people. ”
[Taiwan Island, that Taiwan * Island, in order to avoid trouble, I will write Taiwan Island in the future, after all, it is a minefield. 】
"This matter can't be done overnight, and I can't go in person, so naturally I can only ask you to go. Mingxiang, I remember, during the Kangxi period, you went there several times to inspect, tell me what you know. The fourth master said.
Mingzhu was very excited and hurriedly got up: "Yes, the minister knows everything, and he has endless words." ”
Then, he talked about what he saw and heard when he went to the coast several times, as well as the deployment and hidden dangers over there.
"Well, I have been recuperating in the Qing Dynasty for more than ten years, and the Zheng family on Taiwan Island is the same. Even, they are small in size, small in population, and even richer. Although I am not afraid of them, I am like a locust, sucking a mouthful of blood hurts once. The fourth master tapped lightly on the table.
"What do you think?" The fourth master asked again.
Mingzhu has already come back and forth a few times in her heart.
He didn't have much contact with the fourth master before, so he wasn't very sure that the fourth master was belligerent? Or peace-loving.
Therefore, now against the Zheng family on Taiwan Island, he doesn't know whether to fight or make peace.
"The old minister's opinion...... This, the old minister is older, and it is inevitable to think that it is better not to use swords. However, the Zheng family is not an ordinary person, their sailors are very powerful. If we open the forbidden sea without the slightest precaution, we will suffer if there is any conflict. Mingzhu tossed and turned, but still thought of the key point.
"Therefore, I have called you. We don't take the initiative to fight, the Zheng family, it doesn't hurt to let it go. But we have to guard against it. The fourth master nodded: "I want to train the original sailor, you also think about it, recommend a few people to me, who can fight in the water, we don't take the initiative to fight, but we must be on guard." ”
"Yes, the old minister must think carefully, the emperor is wise." Mingzhu was busy.
