While saying that, Jiajing picked up Xu Qian's memorial and showed hesitation.
The content in the memorial book is very simple. It means that the merchant ships were found. Among them, there were more than a dozen illegal ships with more than three masts. Since these ships have been checked, the question is whether they should be destroyed or sufficient.
Use of the navy.
But what really attracted Jiajing's attention was the words in the memorial.
"Students were ordered by the imperial examination to inspect the Japanese pirates. Although they dared not slacken, they were futile. The students thought about it repeatedly and learned their mistakes. They made a statement: Japanese pirates ravaged Shenzhou, invaded Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian and other places, and the rioters also forgot the country when they saw profits and were with the Japanese.
The collusion made the Japanese people more arrogant. The military strategists said that they knew themselves and their enemies and would never be defeated in a hundred battles. The Japanese knew about the Ming Dynasty, but the Ming Dynasty knew nothing about the Japanese pirates. Therefore, the students thought that because of this, our Ming Dynasty was controlled everywhere.
The Japanese pirates feared the Japanese as if they were like tigers.”
"So the student made suggestions, asking the supervise or requisition of large ships, and appointed a secret envoy to carry some silk and porcelain, so that they can travel to various countries and observe the customs and customs of various countries. Only in this way can they know themselves and their enemies, so that the Japanese pirates have nowhere to hide. The nickname is Deng and Jian.
, The people of Qiantang are loyal and have courage. Your Majesty can send him as secret envoys, travel around countries and collect public opinion from various countries, and sooner or later, they will be used by Your Majesty in the future."
Who is Jiajing? He never interprets it literally when reading memorials. Just like Xu Qian, he always said that he sent secret envoys to travel around the country to know himself and his enemy, and imitate Zhang Qian's actions during the Han Dynasty. But if he read it carefully, he would be a decent person.
The secret envoy actually had to carry some silk and porcelain. Of course, if you want to explain it, it actually makes sense. It is nothing more than that the envoy brings wealth to make friends with all the religions and religions. But if you think deeply, you will give gifts to others, others will ask for
Don't give me a gift? Isn't this business going around?
Jiajing sneered: "This guy Xu Qian is good at making things easier to say, but he is a bad guy."
Huang Jin couldn't tell why, so he didn't dare to speak out loud, so he had to listen to Jiajing obediently.
Jiajing sighed and continued, "But I understand his intentions. He just wants to use compromise methods to take the opportunity to imitate merchants in maritime trade."
Huang Jin couldn't help but say, "I'm afraid that the officials in the court will definitely write a letter to object."
Jiajing shook his head and said in a plain tone: "Not for the time being, they are at the moment, so no one will object. Besides, this is a trivial matter after all. It's just that the tour of various countries is not like the ones like Emperor Wen. But the problem is,
Is it really beneficial to do it? Although Xu Qian did not say it clearly in the memorial, his intention was to tell me that going into the sea would bring a lot of money to the palace and enrich the treasury."
Jiajing narrowed his eyes and slashed at the desk casually and said, "I never knew it, but now I understand that the so-called military affairs are nothing more than money. Raising soldiers requires money, suppressing rebellions, and building river embankments requires money, and all departments
Each court also needs silver to operate, so there is no harm in more money, but the problem is, can Xu Qian really earn money?"
He sighed and shook his head and said, "Stop, let him try it out. Who is Deng Jian? Has the factory guards investigated his origin?"
Huang Jin bowed and said, "I know this person, this person has always been involved with Xu Qian, and has a close relationship. However, he is also the man of Eunuch Wang, and he still serves as a guard in Eunuch Wang's mansion. Eunuch Wang has
Many things I contacted Xu Qian through him."
Jiajing sighed and said, "Then I can rest assured, so I will leave it to Deng Jian. I ordered Deng Jian to be the secret envoy to tour various countries and inspect the customs and customs of various countries. As for Xu Qian... this time he was established.
He has made great contributions, but I cannot reward him. After all, he is still young and success may not be a good thing."
Huang Jin couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, Xu Chang seems to have done a lot of effort in the Jinyiwei."
"Is that true?" Jiajing smiled and said, "If you have merits, you should reward me. I will tell you that the Jinyiwei will take care of you and give me a fat man."
After the words came, Jiajing seemed a little tired, but his excitement had not yet passed, and suddenly he thought for a moment, saying, "If you draw another decree, just say that if there is any conclusive evidence in Chun'an, Xu Qian will be ordered to punish him immediately.
loan."
Huang Jin couldn't help but say, "Have you ordered the cabinet to draft an order to let the department deal with these brutal officials?"
Jiajing said coldly: "Didn't somebody say that my imperial decree doesn't count? The cabinet will draw their entrustment. If you draw your entrustment, I want to see if it is his entrustment to count, or if it is my entrustment to count.
The main purpose of the calculation.”
Huang Jin felt cold in his heart and immediately understood what Jiajing meant. The emperor wanted to take advantage of the victory and give the cabinet some color.
The imperial envoy had a high official title of eleven words, including Zhejiang, patrols, and Japanese pirates, but now he is studying every day.
It is impossible not to study. Reading is Xu Qian's stepping stone. No matter how high his holy family is, it is useless to have no fame. After all, the imperial envoy is just a temporary official. If you want to be a real master, you still have to work hard and strive for success.
In the past few days, Xu Qian has reviewed all the four books. Chun'an is full of mountains, so he occasionally takes Deng Jian to the nearby mountains for a trip. Of course, dozens of guards are indispensable, and Xu Qian is not a fool.
The higher you stand, the more people you offend, and naturally it is important to be dead.
Early this morning, Xu Qian had already taken Deng Jian to the nearby foothills for a trip. After leaving the county town, there was a ferry crossing. The two of them boarded a boat, and the boat went down the river, and the lush mountains beside them were in sight.
Sitting on the boat, Xu Qian smiled at Deng Jian. This smile was very familiar. Generally speaking, this guy would only have such an expression when he cheated people. Deng Jian felt very stressed and said with a tough forehead: "You don't."
Go and see the undulating mountains, but look at me doing what?”
Xu Qian sighed and said, "Look at the mountains and rivers, will you feel it when you wander around?"
Deng Jian licked his mouth and said, "There are no other feelings, but the fish here are very plump. If you can catch a few and go to cook, it will definitely be a god-like enjoyment."
Xu Qian raised his thumbs to Deng Jian and said, "Brother Deng is so ambitious."
Deng Jian sighed and said, "Don't mock me, you scholars love to see the scenery, but I am a rough person, so it's important to fill my stomach."
Xu Qian stared at a mountain in the distance and asked the boatman: "What kind of mountain is that?"
The boatman stretched out the pole and said with a smile: "Young Master, this is Longshan. Legend has it that there were flying dragons entrenched, so it was named. There are temples on the mountain. The incense is very rich. Do you want to go and see it?"
Most of the boatmen and porters of this era served as tour guides, hoping that tourists would delay more effort and get more rewards.
Xu Qian smiled slightly and said, "This is not necessary. Some things can be seen from a distance. If you look closely, it will inevitably be disappointing." After refusing the boatman, Xu Qian said to Deng Jian again: "In fact, it is the same in life. People's eyes are
We cannot be limited to a mountain and a river, but should look at the world and have everything in mind. Only in this way can we achieve something."
Deng Jian took off his shoes, stepped on the boat barefoot, took off his waist knife, and said, "Brother Xu, say anything, I see you have always taken me out these days, and you are talking in a silly manner.
, I must have something to worry about. If you say it straight, I can accept it. I will be beaten sooner or later. It would be better to give me some pleasure."
Xu Qian glared at him, very annoyed by his so-called metaphor. He stood at the bow of the boat, stood tall, and said, "After some time, there will be a decree in the palace, and one of them must be for you."
." Deng Jian was stunned, with a look of surprise on his face and said, "Give it to me? Why is this?"
Xu Qian sighed and said, "Don't ask too much. I can only tell you now that you will leave here, leave Hangzhou, leave Zhejiang, and take your fleet to sea."
"Going to sea!" Deng Jian couldn't calm down at once: "Why should I go to sea? Could it be that I want to escape? Who are you offended?"
Xu Qian shook his head and said, "It's you who went out to sea, so I naturally want to stay here. The Ming Dynasty still needs me, and I need to write a colorful article. I will pass the imperial examination in one fell swoop. In the future, I will have to enter the Emperor's Hall and cause trouble in the capital. Let you
Going to sea is my careful arrangement. You are not young anymore. Your parents don’t need to worry about you, and you have no wife or children. If you don’t do something at this time, will you always be a follower in your life? You are quite brave, but you are not lucky.
Forget it, and this time it is an opportunity for you. You go out to sea and travel to various countries on behalf of the emperor. The merchant ships of merchants will be controlled by you from now on. At that time, the palace will inevitably transfer strongmen, sailors, etc. You will arrive in various states.
We must promote the kindness of our Ming Dynasty.”
Deng Jian was stunned and said, "I...I..."
Xu Qian did not wait for him to speak and continued, "You are my friend and brother of Xu, and I don't hide it from you. The palace asked you to go to sea, but the real purpose is to enrich the inner treasury. You brought the goods from the Ming Dynasty.
Go out to make friends from all countries, and they will inevitably get a gift back then. After a while, it will be a huge profit. As long as this is done, you will definitely have great potential in the future. Although the emperor is a mean person, I will do it from
I have never heard of any harshness to him. As long as you are devoted, you will definitely be a general in the future. Brother Deng, I am a good decision. I don’t know whether this opportunity is right or wrong. Maybe you will fail in Bibo.
, Maybe you can spread your wings and fly high, it all depends on your own luck."
