Xiyuan, Wanshou Palace.

Jiajing, wearing a blue Taoist robe, ended the day's Xuan Xiu, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and came from the quiet room to the front hall where the memorial was handled, but saw Chen Hong greeting him with joy on his face.

He handed the yellow sweat cloth to Huang Jin who was following behind him, and asked Chen Hong casually: "What's the matter!"

"Congratulations to the emperor, the Censor Wang Daren submitted a total of five types and twenty volumes to the Secretary of the Law!" Chen Hong gave a gift first, then pointed to the little eunuch holding the booklet behind him, and said with great joy.

As a result of a dream, the emperor had the idea of ​​finding the Secretary of the Eternal Life. However, at Xu Jie's suggestion, the Censor Wang Daren was replaced by the Censor Wang, Jiang Jing and the South China Sea Inspector Lin Ping'an were divided into the world, and now he finally gained something.

"Okay! Put it on the table!" A flash of excitement flashed across Jiajing's face, and he immediately issued an order.

He may not be interested in other people's books, but only these rare books are exceptions. He always believed that the art of immortality is hidden in the secretary and needs to be carefully studied before he can obtain it.

Chen Hong was overjoyed and immediately waved to the eunuch to put twenty books of secretary on the table and moved the memorials that had been placed before to another place.

Jiajing sat cross-legged before the case, about to read the twenty books of secretary, but an eunuch reported: "Your Majesty, Master Xu and Secretary Wu are looking for a meeting outside the hall!"

"Let them come in!" Jiajing was not surprised and said lightly.

The eunuch bowed and went out to inform the two ministers who were standing under the sun, the most powerful chief minister and the Minister of Personnel, today's Ming Dynasty.

Although Wu Shan was promoted to the Minister of Personnel, he was not arrogant at all. He lowered his posture in front of Xu Jie and made a gesture of invitation and said, "Master Yuan Fu, please invite him first!"

"Brother Jing, you don't know each other, let's go together!" Xu Jie invited with He Xi's smile on his face, looking enthusiastic.

Wu Shan shook his head gently, and seemed serious and said, "Etiquette cannot be abandoned!"

Seeing the other party insisting on doing this, Xu Jie had to take the lead in stepping up the stairs. But he had a vague feeling that Wu Shan was deliberately alienating him and even maintaining a certain sense of guard against him.

"My memory Xu Jie (Wu Shan) pays homage to the emperor, long live my emperor!" The two came to the hall together, and knelt respectfully to Jiajing.

"Get up!" Jiajing was carefully reading a secretary, and said lightly without raising his head.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The two of them gave their thank-you gifts again and then stood up properly from the ground.

Jiajing put down a secretary without any slightest, raised his head and looked at the two important officials in front of him, and asked directly: "What are the two beloved ministers coming to see me?"

Xu Jie did not rush to talk about the matter, but looked at Wu Shan.

Wu Shan naturally would not push the problem back to Xu Jie, but said seriously: "I report to the emperor that the plan of the capital inspection is related to the foundation of the country, and I have now served as the Minister of Personnel, so I will ask for an order to go to the capital inspection day."

Jiajing casually opened another secretary, but saw that the words "Twenty-nine" were on it, and he replied casually: "The Beijing Cha date will be scheduled for the 29th of this month!"

"I will receive the order!" Wu Shan's hanging heart finally fell and said in a manner that he seemed to behave properly.

Xu Jie sighed in his heart, but he didn't expect that there would be so many changes this year. First, Guo Pu became a man of Yan's reputation as "hiding his demise", and then he introduced the Guangdong salt law to promote the salt law, which caused all the benefits of the Beijing inspection to be lost.

Wu Shan's body.

Jiajing looked at Xu Jie again, but said nothing.

Jiajing is a person who pays attention to the tacit understanding of the king and his subjects. He often doesn’t speak at all, but expresses his meaning through body language such as eyes and movements. This is also one of the reasons why Yan Song was favored in the past.

Xu Jie naturally realized that he bowed seriously: "I received a report from the Ministry of Revenue today and realized that Guangdong salt implements the new law, and the effect is very good! Huai salt is not smooth now, so I specially asked the emperor to send an imperial envoy to Huainan to see if it can be found in Huainan.

Implement the new law!”

When Wu Shan heard these words, he couldn't help but look at Xu Jie unexpectedly.

However, as his thoughts change, Xu Jie seemed loyal and patriotic, but he certainly did not really support the new law. His behavior must be a show for the emperor to show, and to dispel the emperor's suspicion caused by the restoration of the old rules of Huaiyan.

Jiajing lowered his head and looked at the secretary in his hand, but asked lightly: "Xu Aiqing, what do you think is the salt ticket method?"

"Report to the emperor, although this method is very wonderful, it may not be used for Huaiyan!" Xu Jie lowered his head and bowed his hand to respond, as if he could see Jiajing's face turning from his eyes to his shade, but he changed his tone and said: "But

This is just a cautious guess from the minister. If you can go to Huaiyan, you can send a capable minister to him! If it is indeed appropriate to implement the method of banning salt, this is a blessing for the Ming Dynasty!”

Jiajing said that Xu Jie must not oppose the Salt Law, but a cautious style as the prime minister. He asked Xu Jie with a gentle expression: "Xu Aiqing, who do you think is suitable?"

Wu Shan couldn't help but look at Xu Jie lightly, and was also curious in his heart who Xu Jie would recommend to go. But he just turned his head and his eyes happened to collide with Xu Jie, and even he was secretly screaming.

It was also at this time that he knew that Xu Jie had just appeared in front of Wanshou Palace was not a coincidence, but deliberately came with him to meet the saint.

"Report to the emperor, the law of the salt was written by Secretary Wu. Now that Secretary Wu is the Minister of Personnel, he should naturally be recommended by Secretary Wu, and I will definitely support him from the side!" Xu Jie glanced at Wu Shan and immediately looked at him.

Jiajing said loyally.

Feng Bao happened to be on duty that day, and he stood aside in a regular manner. He watched Xu Jie fight with such a great move, and the emperor's eyes fell on Wu Shan, but he couldn't help but admire Xu Jie's excellence.

Wu Shan sighed in his heart, and faced Jiajing's gaze, he took the initiative to answer: "Your Majesty, if the court insists on sending officials to Huainan to implement the new salt law, I think this person can not only be extraordinary, but also can shock an official in his own right.

And the gentry, otherwise the matter of salt law cannot be done!"

Xu Jie looked at Wu Shan not in a hurry to recommend the candidates, but instead emphasized the resistance, but couldn't help but look up to the Minister of Personnel. This clearly wanted to give the recommended candidates.

"Not bad!" Jiajing nodded solemnly as he heard this argument.

Although he was the supreme monarch, he knew that there were some things that even he, the monarch, could not do.

In the early days, he wanted to clear the land of the whole country, but was strongly opposed by civil and military officials. In the end, he only tried it in the capital, and it was left alone.

Now I want to send officials to Huainan to implement the new salt law. Not to mention whether Huainan is suitable for the salt law, the resistance here is indeed not very large, and ordinary ministers do not have the courage to touch the interests inside.

"Shangshu Wu, I wonder who you are recommending?" Xu Jie saw Jiajing's reaction and knew that Wu Shan could not walk with the emperor's nose, so he immediately interrupted.

Jiajing interrupted his thoughts and looked at Wushan curiously, but he didn't know who he wanted to recommend to Huainan to do this.

Wu Shan was disturbed by Xu Jie, and he secretly called a pity in his heart. He bowed with his upright face: "There are many obstacles to rectifying the salt administration, and no one must do if they are strong supporters of the court! Therefore, I beg the emperor to send him a message.
Chapter completed!
