Xiyuan Zhilu.

Yan Song, lying on the chair, half closed his eyes and seemed to sleep. Yan Shifan was writing, and Xu Jie listened to Fang Dun's nagging with helpless look on his face.

Another cold winter has passed, and Yan Song once again disappointed countless Xu party members such as Xu Jie, Xu Fan, Zhang Juzheng, etc., and he is old. Every year, he seems to have to ascend to heaven, but he can survive every time!

This winter, Yan Song was ill twice, but he got up again with both strength... Some people say that Xu Jie shrank his head like a turtle, but Yan Song was really like a turtle and was so able to survive!

The Minister of Revenue Fang Dun has never been involved in party disputes. He is also the one with the longest reign of the six ministers of the court. He has a deep experience. He has no choice but to talk about those troubles with Yan Song, who is not doing anything, so he can only talk about Xu Jie's troubles... The Ministry of Revenue is really out of money, and His Majesty even wants the Guangdong governor to pay 160,000 taels of ambergris!

It is hard to say who pays the money for this kind of tribute. Sometimes it is the Guangdong Provincial Administration and the Ministry of Revenue. Sometimes it is the internal transportation warehouse, and sometimes it is the Ministry of Revenue allocated it. However, Guangdong first had floods and then drought last year, and wrote a letter to the Ministry of Revenue to allocate silver.

There was no reason for the Guangdong governor. The three halls were burned and the Ministry of Works searched for huge trees to rebuild them, but this required money... So the Ministry of Works distributed the money to various provinces, including Huguang, Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou, Jiangxi, and Guangdong.

The Ministry of Revenue did not have any money, but he did not dare to agree with Fang Dun if he gave Xu Jie another courage... This guy actually hoped that the cabinet would persuade Emperor Jiajing to temporarily stop the reconstruction of the three halls!

But Xu Jie had to listen. Fang Dun had too much experience. During the Zhengde period, he was also a Jinshi and served as the magistrate of Huating. At that time, Songjiang was plagued by locusts. Fang Dun built an altar barefoot and prayed to the world. The locusts actually flew out of Huating.

At this time, footsteps sounded outside. Xu Wei, who had gained weight in the past two years, walked in leisurely and saluted one by one before saying, "Mr. Li'an, your Majesty summoned him."

Fang Dun took out the songbook from his sleeve... Everyone around him had a little straight eyes, so thick!

Could this guy have written a book of ten thousand words?

"Ahem, I have a long text, please hold on." Xu Jie said.

"Yes." Xu Wei smiled and held Fang Dun? "Mr. Li'an? No hurry, slow down."

Xu Jie followed him out? He smiled and said, "Today, Kaiyang? Wen Chang wore so little... Tsk, spring covers autumn cold? Take care of it."

"Thank you, Mr. Shaohu."

Yan Song was lying there for good, but Yan Shifan was turning his eyes? He muttered in a low voice.

Since the New Year, he opened a yamen? Xu Wei was appreciated by Emperor Jiajing for his writings. Although he was not promoted, he was rewarded continuously and gave him some jade treasures and handed over his arms. The most important thing is that Emperor Jiajing often sent Xu Wei to Zhilu for inquiries.

So now, Xu Jie and Xu Wei often meet in Zhilu. Xu Wei is respectful and Xu Jie means support, but in fact...

Yan Song and Yan Shifan were all laughing at it? The southeastern side almost made a big fuss. Zhao Zhenji and Qian Yuan had completely broken up? It was almost impossible to fight!

Uh, Xu Wei knew it clearly? In fact, he had already fought... it was just one-sided.

Xu Jie sent it out there diligently. Seeing this guy turn around? Xu Wei hummed disdainfully? "Pretending!"

Fang Dun glanced at the junior? “The people in Suiyuan, the two of them are the most proud, are introverted and their literary talent is exposed.”

"Young man is not as arrogant as Zhan Cai..." Xu Wei chuckled and changed the topic, "Mr. Li'an, what's going on over Jimen?"

Fang Du's face suddenly looked ugly, "How can I have a good news about this?"

"Oh, Wang Minying, Ouyang An was imprisoned for his crimes, and Ma Fang was removed from office and was only appointed as the assistant general." Xu Wei shook his head and said, "After this defeat, many cities on the left and right of Jimen fell. Can the Ministry of Revenue allocate money and grain to help?"

Fang Dun did not answer, but speeded up.

Xu Wei sighed, "It's not as brave as Ma Fang..."

This praise was said by Emperor Jiajing himself, referring to Ma Fang, the legendary "Ma Dashen" who is now famous and legendary among the border troops.

This man was plundered by the Mongols who invaded the south for thirty years. Later, he developed a good abilities on the grassland, skilled in riding and using bows and arrows. In the 16th year of Jiajing, he stole horses and fled back to the Ming Dynasty, and was valued by Zhou Shangwen, the general of Datong.

Later, Ma Fang fought bravely in the army, and gradually promoted from captain to chief, guerrilla and general. He was quite strategic and ruthless, and was praised as the legacy of Huo Cavalry... The most common thing Ma Fang did was to lead a small group of cavalry into the grassland, burn the pastures, rob horses, and chop livestock. This was to follow the example of Hou Huo Qubing, the champion of the Western Han Dynasty.

In the 36th year of Jiajing, the Japanese turmoil in the southeast gradually subsided, but something happened in the north. Ma Fang, who was promoted to deputy general of Jimen, met his old rival Altan Khan again.

That year, Ma Fang shot and killed a tiger on the grassland to save Altan Khan, and was highly valued. He then fled back to the Ming Dynasty. During the past 20 years, Altan Khan suffered a lot of losses.

But this time, Altan Khan had the upper hand.

Altan Khan led his army south. Wang Zhu, who was the governor of Ji Liao at the time, commanded the command of the Jimen General Ouyang An, lost consecutive battles, the Ming army collapsed across the board, and important towns such as Zunhua and Yutian fell one after another. Although Ma Fang led the cavalry to raid for a long distance, severely damaged the Mongolian cavalry in the battle of Jinshan Temple, forcing Altan Khan to retreat to the north, he was held accountable later. Ma Fang was removed from office, leaving only the title of deputy governor.

The atmosphere in the central government this year was quite depressing, mainly because Jimen was surrounded for a time... However, Fang Dun was not interested in pursuing the accountability afterwards. What he was upset was that he demolished the east wall and repaired the west wall, but let alone the east wall and the west wall, now the south wall and the north wall of the Ministry of Revenue are gone. Looking up, there is no ceiling at all!

Therefore, in recent times, the most eye-catching topic in the court is that within ten days, the Minister of Revenue Fang Dun wrote letters to resign three times in a row... I really can't continue to do it, but unfortunately, the boss, Emperor Jiajing, made it clear that he would not allow it three times!

That is Emperor Jiajing, but if it were his grandson Wanli, the official threw away the official seal and ran away!

Seeing Fang Dun enter the back hall under the guidance of the eunuch, Xu Wei found a chair to sit outside, leaning lazily on the back of the chair to bask in the sun, thinking about the messy things during this period.

On February 16th, thousands of Japanese pirates fled into Fuzhou Prefecture, Xinghua Prefecture, Quanzhou Prefecture, and landed on the shore to burn and loot. Fujian Governor Wu Baipeng personally led 3,000 officers and soldiers to fight the enemy, won three battles and beheaded 600, but the Japanese pirates scattered everywhere, captured Fuqing County, captured the magistrate Ye Zongwen, robbed the ward, killed more than 1,000 men and women, and burned countless officials and civilian houses.

On the second day after the military report entered the capital, Emperor Jiajing appointed Zhejiang Vice General Qi Jiguang as the general of Fujian and led his troops south to Fujian to fight against the Japanese.

This is a natural thing. If Zhao Zhenji hadn't deliberately delayed it, Qi Jiguang's troops would have gone south to Fujian at the end of last year.

Xu Wei recalled in his heart several secret letters Qian Yuan sent recently... Xu Jie is really not a thing, and Zhao Zhenji is also a bird of a feather. However, this time he knocked on Hu Ruzhen's bamboo robbery, Zhenhai's trade became more and more prosperous. Of course, Wang Zhi was scared this time.

Yesterday, Xu Wei also wrote a letter for the guard to send it to Zhenhai. Qian Zheng's father-in-law Lu Shusheng... The old man had a dead tree and a new concubine gave birth to a son for him!

He is almost sixty years old, tsk, he is still stronger!

In fact, in the original time and space, Lu Shusheng did have a son, but he was born in the 45th year of Jiajing eight years later!

In the letter, Xu Wei also mentioned Wang Zhu, the governor of Ji Liao, who was imprisoned. He had a relationship with Qian Yuan at that time, but Qian Yuan was quite despised of this person.

Wang Shizhen visited Suiyuan late last night, hoping that Xu Wei could plead with the mercy in front of Emperor Jiajing and Yan Song, but Xu Wei only agreed to send a letter to the south... In fact, this is no different from refusing.

As early as the 34th year of Jiajing, the Wang family of Taicang and Qian Yuan parted ways. Qian Yuan went south to Taizhou the next year and repeatedly asked for the sugar shop to share the dividends and silver. However, the Wang family made several verbal arguments, so that Qian Yuan had to argue with Hu Zongxian several times.

There are many different opinions on Wang Zhu's death in his previous life, but in such a crushing defeat, he could not escape the blame as the governor of Ji Liao.

Wang Zhu died as soon as he died, but I was afraid that no one would plead for him. Xu Wei suddenly glanced at the corner of his mouth. However, Prince Yu's mansion sent someone to Suiyuan to ask... But he didn't plead for Wang Zhu, but asked Wang Zhu if he died, could the candy shop be replaced?
