Ming Dynasty has many ingenious skills.

For example, since the last years of Zhengde, salt wells have been opened in Jiazhou, and occasionally oil and water can be obtained, which can be used to illuminate the night. Recently, several wells have been opened again, and lawsuits have been filed. This is a custom written by Liu Xian, the commander-in-chief of Sichuan, to the emperor. It talks about digging wells to extract oil in Sichuan;

For example, there are four types of variola vaccination to prevent and control smallpox: pox clothing method, pox pulp method, dry vaccination method, and water vaccination method;

For example, using different varieties of silkworms to cross to produce Jiazhong and four breeding methods;

For example, the jacquard spinning wheel has a precise structure and is difficult to imitate;

For example, the press used to press sugar cane is a vertical double-roller press that uses the inclined plane principle;

For example, Fujian uses refining methods to turn sucrose into brown sugar and then into white sugar;

For example, Zhu Yijun used hard sails to cut out cross sections to find the reasons behind these phenomena.

But these are all skills. The birth of science without systematic division of science is always about knowing what is happening, not even knowing why it is happening, let alone knowing what is inevitable.

Mechanical trick-taking is abhorred by Confucianism. Confucian thinking as a whole is extremely conservative. Extremely conservative means more conservative than conservative. Therefore, Confucian disciples will be wary of any changes immediately and will not promote them wildly. They won't bother to study it, but are all labeled with various shackles such as scheming, haste makes waste, sleight of hand, and so on.

In the third generation of the Fa Dynasty, the trend of worshiping the ancients was particularly strong, and even after the Emperor Xiaozong was regarded as a betrayal of the sages, the scientific development of the Ming Dynasty became difficult to even take a breath.

They are afraid of wolves before and tigers behind, and they are hesitant to look forward and backward. They need to reform the law and obtain taxes in a pragmatic way to solve practical problems such as military pay. At the same time, they must adhere to the ancestral laws and comply with the Confucian etiquette of the ancestors. They must, and must, and return. Yes, how can there be so many beautiful things in the world?

When the hydrofoil sailboat model made by Zhu Yijun was sent to Songjiang Shipyard, the general offices of Guo Rulin, Zhao Shizhen and other shipyards did not take it seriously. It was not until after reading the notes and Guo Rulin and Zhao Shizhen reproduced the experiment of the side hall of Wenhua Hall that they Everyone was stunned.

"With my knowledge and understanding, it is difficult for me to understand how a ship can sail against the wind, let alone float on the sea." Guo Rulin looked blankly at the model in front of him, floating under the wind channel current. Sailing.

It was difficult for Guo Rulin to understand the four hydrofoil sailboats based on the concave and convex surfaces of hard sails. Isn't this really the Taoism of Emperor Zhenwu?

The emperor of the Lao Zhu family has always claimed that he is the reincarnation of Emperor Zhenwu. This is a kind of political propaganda based on the stability of the country. Under the political correctness of Zibuyu, no one will take it seriously.

But the flying ship still hit Guo Rulin's indestructible cognitive world with a hammer, shattering it into pieces.

Guo Rulin was a Jinshi in the 32nd year of Jiajing. He was first awarded the official title of Shizhong. In the 40th year of Jiajing, he supervised the construction of the second sealing boat of the Ming Dynasty. What he saw and heard in Ryukyu included major events such as the ceremony of conferring the king, crossing the ditch to worship the sea and so on.

The Fengzhou of the Ming Dynasty was made of thousands of materials, with a length-to-width ratio of 5.77:1. This kind of boat was already the limit of Guo Rulin's imagination. Even the Hongmaofan who was good at sailing and the Hongmaofan who could travel across the ocean to the Ming Dynasty were not this big. It is a boat, and it is a boat that can travel in all directions and can enter the water more than one foot and four feet (4.39 meters). It is already the largest ship made of thousands of materials in the world.

Songjiang Shipyard ambitiously hopes to build a ship that breaks through everyone's cognitive scope, so that the little emperor can open his eyes and see the strength of their craftsmen.

The imperial court not only approved the new five-masted plywood ship's use of Fengzhou, but now also ordered the construction of a hydrofoil sailboat.

"I would rather believe that Your Majesty is the reincarnation of Emperor Zhenwu than that this thing can fly on its own." Xiao Chongye, a Jinshi scholar in the fifth year of Longqing's fifth year, rolled up his sleeves. He would rather you believe in ghosts than that ships can fly.

"How about trying to build one?" Chen Lin, the deputy commander of Songjiang Town, was eager to get started with this thing. With this thing, he flew to Manila and from Songjiang Prefecture to Ryukyu. I'm afraid it wouldn't even take five days.

The route from the Ming Dynasty to Ryukyu is very mature. After all, the kings of Ryukyu have been canonized by the Ming emperors for generations. This is a real need for canonization.

Zhao Shizhen, who is the deputy general manager of the Songjiang Shipyard, said eagerly: "I think we can try to build one."

"Your Majesty gave him 60,000 taels of silver to specialize in the construction of hydrofoil sailboats." Zhao Shizhen specifically named him. The emperor was not short of soldiers and gave him a full 60,000 taels of silver to be responsible for the research, development and manufacturing of this fast sailboat.

Sixty thousand taels of silver can support the Quanchu Guild Hall for a full 120 years, which makes Songjiang Shipyard very prosperous. This is a rare wealth for the imperial court.

Yu Dayou and Wang Daokun whispered a few times, and said seriously: "Then let's supervise the construction with all our strength."

"Your Majesty said that there will be no punishment if it is not completed well. I am just a little disappointed with the skilled craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Yijun specifically stated in the imperial edict that there would be no penalty for failing to build it. After all, it was an exploratory project. Once the money was spent, it would be spent, and the emperor would only be disappointed.

For Songjiang Shipyard, which has the production capacity of large ships with thousands of materials, this hydrofoil sailboat, which can only be called a small sampan, was built on the third day and fell apart in the afternoon of the third day.

It fell apart, not capsized.

The mast, keel, horizontal and vertical balance wings were all torn apart. The huge torque caused the ship to fall apart less than thirty feet after it stepped out. Chen Lin, who was responsible for supporting the ship, fell into the water directly. Chen Lin, who was white in the waves, swam back to the shore.

The material was not strong enough, which was the first problem they faced.

Principles are principles and practice is practice. From models to ships, there are so many problems that need to be solved.

Chen Lin went ashore, thought about it over and over, and based on her experience in punting, she said: "I think the stay frame of the sail should be made of iron bars. The sail has obvious deformation, or it can be made of steel bars, and the strength of the mast and keel is also poor. It’s not enough, it can’t withstand this kind of twisting at all. The sail has a huge force to the right and rear, and the vertical balance wing will twist to the left and forward. The wood will definitely not be able to withstand this kind of strong twisting.”

Zhao Shizhen thought for a moment and said, "Then try using steel bars and iron bones."

The second boat was built very slowly, and it capsized right after it was launched. The balance wing was still not strong enough, but the boat still sailed sixty feet smoothly. This time, Chen Lin got a piece of driftwood and held it, waiting for the boat. I came to pick him up, but I ran out of energy. It was too tiring to support the boat.

Soon, the frame of the horizontal balance wing changed into a steel frame and a wooden shell, and the vertical balance wing changed from one to four, one on the bow, one on the stern, one on each side, a winch, a sail winch, a compass, and iron nails. Connections, nail reinforcement, splicing and tenon construction, tung oil oyster ash wood sewing, etc., all the technologies available to Songjiangfu Shipyard were used.

In May, the ship finally stumbled out of the harbor, made a circle, and then circled smoothly into the harbor.

"It can only be said that it is barely sailing, but the difference from flying is really big." Guo Rulin looked at his own record and felt helpless. There are wind pills and water pills, so it is not difficult to calculate the ratio of wind speed and speed. The thing is, the wind speed ratio of their hydrofoil sailboat is two to one, and the speed is only half of the wind speed.

It seems that this is the limit of Songjiang Shipyard. All the technologies have been used, and the ship built is already very good, let alone flying. The day and night efforts have only solved whether it can sail. All the indicators have been improved. Never met the mark.

Wang Daokun asked calmly: "Are you giving up? It's really a pity to disappoint His Majesty. There are still more than 30,000 taels of silver left, but that's it."

Yu Dayou looked at Wang Daokun expressionlessly, which was just rubbing salt into the wound, but Yu Dayou knew that Wang Daokun was just using something called the method of stimulating generals, and he still had 30,000 taels of silver. At least he had to spend all the money.

Xiao Chongye looked left and right and said: "We have more than 4,000 shipwrights in Songjiang Shipyard. Why don't we ask them? The shipbuilding masters selected from Nanya, Zhejiang, Fujian, and Guangdong and Guangxi are all veteran craftsmen. We can't solve it." Why don't you publish a list and announce the problem? If you can solve a problem, you will be given one hundred taels of silver."

"What are you looking at me for?"

After Xiao Chongye finished speaking, he looked at everyone looking at him and murmured in a low voice: "Master said: quick and eager to learn, not ashamed to ask questions, this is called literature. We are indeed scholar-bureaucrats, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, but we don't understand , why don’t you ask for advice from work?”

"No, no, no, you found a good way!" Guo Rulin was overjoyed and grabbed Xiao Chongye's shoulders and said, "One person's opinion is limited, but the wisdom of everyone is infinite!"

"Okay, okay, put out the list immediately!"

Xiao Chongye found a way to speed up the solution to the problem, and it was an effective brainstorming method. They had specializations in their crafts, and they were good at reading, but after all, they were all half-monks. Compared with these shipwrights who had been working for a lifetime, experience?

Soon, a new round of transformation began again, and this time the speed of transformation continued to accelerate. In just one month, the hydrofoil sailboat changed drastically, and the speed became faster and faster.

The small sampan is still a small sampan, but it is completely different from what it used to be. Chen Lin rides the hydrofoil sailboat above the sea and moves quickly on the sea. The water splash caused by the three vertical fixed wings under the water is A white water curtain arose behind him, and the bow of the ship continued to rise and fall with the changes in wind and sails. Finally, when the strong wind came, the bow of the ship lifted up, and the entire hull began to float completely on the water. above.

The horizontal fixed wings have been changed to "∽". No matter where the wind comes from, the fixed wings on both sides will go deep into the water to improve a higher balance. The vertical fixed wings on both sides of the fixed wings have also been changed from symmetrical to asymmetrical. , reduce the torque of the sail and fixed wing, and further increase the speed.

"Hahahaha!" Chen Lin laughed wildly and maneuvered the sailboat freely, and the boat actually floated on the water.

"Bang!"

The ship disintegrated again, and Chen Lin was thrown out. Like a cannonball, it flew far away, hit several floats on the water, and plunged heavily into the sea. Not long after, Chen Lin was holding the The driftwood emerged from the sea. Although the boat disintegrated, he knew that he had succeeded.

When seawater sails at high speed, it becomes harder than iron. When he heard the hull creaking in the waves, Chen Lin loosened the fixed rope, prepared for a strong impact, and waited for disintegration. At that moment, when the wind weakened slightly and the bow of the boat fell into the water, the boat immediately deformed and disintegrated.

Chen Lin, holding the driftwood, was thinking about the last issue, the improvement of the bow.

The craftsmen of Songjiang Prefecture have warned that this ship will definitely fall apart if it is plunged into the water at such a fast speed. The hollow bow makes the ship in the waves easier to lift, which improves the stability of the ship in wind and waves, and the bottom of the ship must be made A tapering, sloping waterline that transitions to a narrow, rounded tail that allows for sailing.

The next day, the new hydrofoil sailboat was pulled out of the shipyard and a new aerial survey began.

Chen Lin, who had been beaten to a pulp yesterday, still refused to let go of the joy of sailing. She once again set out to sea on a flying-wing sailboat, and this time it was a stability test.

This kind of boat is cheap to build, and it is extremely easy and simple to improve. It will be gradually improved in further tests.

But ships that can fly, ships that can completely exceed the speed of the wind when going against the wind, have indeed appeared in the dock of Songjiang Shipyard.

If the stability test is passed, the further sea navigation test is from Songjiang Shipyard to Tianjin Wei, which is expected to arrive in one and a half days. On land, it will take a full sixteen days from Songjiang Prefecture to Beiya, and from Songjiang Prefecture to Beiya. It also takes two days to get to Nanya.

In terms of information, Songjiang Mansion will be closer to Beiya Capital.

If this kind of hydrofoil sailboat could be used to build a network of sentry ships in the offshore, the Ming court would be able to make faster decisions against Japanese pirates along the coast.

Information is power.

Therefore, Songjiang Shipyard is sparing no effort to improve this small sampan. How to make it faster is the top priority for every shipbuilder in Songjiang Shipyard.

While the hydrofoil sailing boats were being built in Songjiang Prefecture, Ming Dynasty's three-masted plywood giant ship began to be launched into the water. When this kind of warship from the West was launched into the water, the Ming Dynasty's generals were a little disappointed.

Its combat effectiveness is not as strong as described. Six ships defeating two hundred ships is probably an exaggerated description. The victory of the war should not be attributed solely to armaments.

In Yu Dayou's view, naval battles are just about defeating small boats with big ships, and defeating small guns with big guns; defeating few ships with many ships, and defeating few guns with many guns.

This ship is large enough and has enough artillery, but it has a fatal problem, that is, it can only be deployed near the port and cannot sail far.

Moreover, the hit rate of artillery in the turbulent waves of the sea is also a problem. According to the description in Hongmaofan's documents, victory is actually achieved by relying more on arrows, side-to-side combat, etc. Artillery is more of a deterrent effect.

There is a problem with the power of this giant three-masted plywood ship. This kind of ship is a type of ship that uses oars as the basic means of propulsion. That is, the hull is equipped with a certain number of oars and is equipped with a certain number of oarsmen. It does not Suitable for large ocean voyages, even trips to Luzon are difficult to do.

This three-masted plywood giant ship at Songjiang Shipyard has 24 pairs (48) oars and 144 oarsmen. A giant ship relies on the crew's oar-driving method at sea, and it may still be able to ensure good performance in offshore waters. operation, but it is somewhat impractical to rely on this method for ocean navigation.

But it is not completely meaningless, let alone worthless. It breaks the inherent shipbuilding design of the Ming Dynasty and becomes the first ship equipped with artillery in the Ming Dynasty. The warships of the Ming Dynasty are about to embark on a new design idea. From then on, the warships of the Ming Dynasty will have heavy artillery that can damage enemy ships and destroy the enemy's effective strength. The cabins will be designed to store gunpowder and ammunition, and there will also be a type of soldier called a ship gunner on the ship.

A new combat system is taking shape, which is the transformation of the navy into the navy.

Although the idea of ​​​​this naval battle artillery seems relatively simple, due to range and accuracy issues, ships equipped with artillery can only approach the enemy before firing, so basically there is only the opportunity to "fire one shot", and then there is a boarding battle. Jump on the enemy ship and capture the enemy ship.

However, the development of artillery and ships will inevitably open a new era, an era with a new maritime combat system, which is about to and will inevitably come.

Yu Dayou was very convinced.

Luo Bingliang has been very busy recently, busy with accounting and tax collection.

During the tax audit process, Luo Bingliang discovered a very interesting thing, that is, tax audit is a matter of cost and gain. This is the basic principle of tax audit. Many times, you have to go to the big households, which determines Yes, tax collectors will not ask ordinary people to collect taxes.

Take the breakfast shop in Nanya as an example. Stores that sell less than 20 taels of silver a year have only one tael of tax in accordance with the tax law of drawing 6 taels of business value. Moreover, these stores usually do not have accounts and need to spend a lot of money. After calculating the manpower and material resources, we finally found that the tax collected was not as much as the investment. Isn't this nonsense?

Taxation also requires costs, and the costs are extremely high.

Auditing requires a large number of accountants who are proficient in arithmetic, tracking, urging, visiting, clarifying acres of land, etc. All require a large number of manpower. Ask the common people to do tax collection. The tax collection office has to close as soon as it opens, so to collect taxes, you have to run Go and collect it from a wealthy family.

Whoever has the money will take it.

Within a month after the tax stamps were issued, no one went to the Nanjing Hubu Yamen to pay taxes. The Emperor of Ming Dynasty also took it for granted. You just took a tax stamp and wanted to embezzle the powerful people who had been playing for two hundred years. Honestly hand over the vain money to the court and daydream!

According to the number of acres clarified by Song Yangshan Qingzhang, Luo Bingliang issued a total of 135 reminders in the bright May, ordering the tax arrears from the first month of the third year of Wanli to be paid before the end of May.

This is the first warning. If it is overdue, you will receive a demand note for the second warning. If you do not pay, there will be no third.

These 135 reminders totaled more than 1.4 million taels of silver. The Ming Dynasty Taxation Office did not intend to collect the arrears. The past has passed. At that time, the taxation office was not established, and the taxation office only Collect all taxes owed since the tax house was established.

And this kind of reminder ticket has a more terrifying name in Nanya, the reminder talisman.

The Gu family in Kunshan was directly ransacked by Tiqi Luo Bingliang, which caused the powerful Jin gentry in Nanya to remember the fear of being dominated by Tiqi again for the first time in 154 years.

In the twenty-sixth year of Hongwu, Emperor Gao, Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, noticed that Jin Yiwei was abusing his power. He took advantage of the situation and removed the investigation power of the Zhenfu Division and transferred it again to the Sanfa Division for trial. By the time of Emperor Chengzuwen of the Ming Dynasty, the Zhenfu Division was Fu Si regained his powers of investigation, and the nightmare came. In order to limit Jin Yiwei's favor, Ming Chengzu established Dongchang.

At this point, the powerful people have a nightmare, the factory guards have become rampant, and the factory guards specifically target the powerful officials.

In the 19th year of Yongle, Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty moved his capital to Beiya. After that, the Fusi Yamen in Nanzhen became increasingly quiet. Because it was too far away from the emperor, it was almost idle. Luo Bingliang's raid on the Gu family's house awakened the pain of powerful right-wingers. memory.

Reminders were distributed to every household, immediately arousing widespread discussion, and each tax stamp had a specific reminder amount.

Luo Bingliang received the news that this group of Jin gentry and powerful people had gathered to discuss countermeasures again. The meeting place this time was Chongzheng Academy.

The headmaster of Chongzheng Academy was Geng Dingming, the censor and censor during the Jiajing period.

In the 41st year of Jiajing's reign, Geng Dingxiang was transferred to Nanjing to supervise schools. Seeing the quiet environment of Qingliang Mountain, he chose the site at the east foot of the mountain and built a palace with three entrances.

This true story is exactly the true teaching of Wang Yangming’s Xinxue. Mr. Wang of Yuyao’s theory of conscience, Yangming’s Xinxue is the right Xue.

The theory of conscience is to integrate knowledge and action into conscience. It removes the unity of knowledge and action, removes the learning of body and mind, removes the realization and practice, removes the fact that knowing but not doing is just unknown. It focuses on the heart as reason, the heart is irrational, and there is nothing outside the heart. It is a betrayal of Mr. Wang to only talk about conscience when he means things.

The court had a very high opinion of Wang Shouren and highly approved of his knowledge. He looked down upon and even dismissed his disciples. They learned all the wrong things and couldn't even be loyal to themselves. , what about conscience?

But such a weird knowledge that betrayed its source is now the mainstream in Nanya and even the entire Ming Dynasty, and Zhang Juzheng's theory of contradiction is a heresy.

Chongzheng Academy is built according to the mountain and is divided into three entrances: front, middle and back. The first hall and the second hall are connected by cloisters on both sides, with cornices and tiles, gurgling water, and a small lake lined with green trees, which is quiet and elegant;

Between the second hall and the third hall is a bluestone staircase. Climbing up the steps, you will see a green area. On the east side of the steps, there are winding corridors, rockeries, pools and other landscaping;

The third hall is the commanding heights of the academy. A piece of Taihu stone has four words written on it: righteousness and learning. Standing in the third hall, you can have a panoramic view of the scenery for hundreds of miles.

At this time, Geng Dingxiang held the Theory of Contradiction in his hand and was amazed. Moreover, the Theory of Contradiction in his hand was a hardcover version of the Theory of Contradiction bought by Sanjingchang in Huangzhuang, Nanya. The content was complete and fully expressed. Zhang Juzheng's understanding of the infinite principle of all things.

Geng Dingxiang really couldn't imagine what kind of mental state Zhang Juzheng was in to complete such a huge work. Although it only has tens of thousands of words, each word is like a gem, as if it contains all the infinite principles in the world.

"Guangzu, I think it's better for us to pay taxes." Geng Dingming put his hand on the theory of contradiction and said somewhat inaccurately: "Maybe, maybe, Yuanfu is waiting for us to make things big. The best thing is The solution is to wait until Yuan Fu is dead and we should not resist while he is alive."

The person sitting opposite Geng Dingxiang was Lu Guangzu.

Lu Guangzu was a Jinshi in the 26th year of Jiajing, and he was on the same list as Zhang Juzheng.

When Gao Gong overthrew Xu Jie, Lu Guangzu was implicated as a Xu party member. In the sixth year of Longqing, Gao Gong was dismissed. Yang Bo recommended Lu Guangzu, especially Nanjing Taipu Shaoqing. Originally, Lu Guangzu was going to Beijing to be the minister of Dali Temple. A great career was just around the corner, and Yang Bo recommended Lu Guangzu to be the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

This is the Quanbu, the heavenly official who is in charge of promotion, promotion and removal of hundreds of officials and has the power of life and death.

But before he entered the capital, he walked halfway back to his hometown, Dingyou. He stayed in mourning for three years and had no chance of success.

Lu Guangzu has a deep foundation and has deep connections with the Jin Party, Zhang Party, and Zhejiang Party. Isn't he better than Zhang Han, who has no background and only knows how to be obedient? But Ding You was the greatest political correctness after Xiaozong, so Lu Guangzu had no choice but to return to his hometown.

As a result, Liang Menglong was deprived of his love, and Zhao Mengyou was also deprived of his love, which made Lu Guangzu feel unwilling. He was also a little disappointed with Zhang Juzheng. They were all on the same list. Since he could take his love, why couldn't he try to retaliate?

It really works.

In March of the third year of Wanli, Zhang Juzheng wrote a letter asking him to prepare for a revolt. Sun Piyang, the minister of Dali Temple, the same Sun Piyang who shouted that he wanted to draw lots to appoint officials, failed to pass the Fa Lei exam in six months and had to be sent out to work. Zhang Juzheng asked Lu Guangzu to prepare to return to Beijing to serve.

Lu Guangzu is not one of the cripples who chooses to have good legs and feet. Lu Guangzu's legs and feet themselves are pretty good.

Lu Guangzu thought for a while and said: "Yuanfu is fifty-one, and your majesty is twelve years old. You also read the contradiction and said that your majesty and Yuanfu's learning cannot be said to be exactly the same, at least eight or nine points. Now accept it, in the future, I'm afraid this tax will have to continue to be paid. If Yuan Fu is gone and Your Majesty is gone, how long will it take?"

Lu Guangzu joined in the fun because he wanted to bring in two people, one was Song Yangshan, the governor of Yingtian, and the other was Luo Bingliang, the Jinyi guard who punished and collected taxes from thousands of households.

This kind of gathering to defy the imperial ban has some secret codes. For example, if the question is: The highest good is the essence of the heart, the answer is: The heart's selfless desires are the laws of heaven; the question is: The moon is half-curtained and the crows are crying in the night, the answer is: The courtyard is full. The fragrance of flowers and birds bring spring; or modify a single word in the biography, or simply write some unpopular poems.

Luo Bingliang found Lu Guangzu and hit it off immediately, so he brought everyone in.

Luo Bingliang and Song Yangshan were known to most of the powerful people in Nanya, but after the two of them dressed up in disguise, the silk and satin were replaced by coarse linen and brown, one servant and one aide, no one paid attention to them. Who would have thought that How could a Tiqi wearing a flying fish uniform and a scholar-bureaucrat wearing a third-grade official crown and sash behave like this, wearing coarse linen and short brown clothes, pretending to be a servant?

Before Lu Guangzu came, he had already paid all the taxes for his family. He just watched the excitement and fanned the flames. Now the tax office urgently needed a chicken to kill to scare the monkeys.

"Chief of the mountain, most of the gentry and rural sages have arrived." Jiao Hong walked in and bowed his head.

Jiao Hong was the direct disciple of Geng Dingxiang, and all the affairs of Chongzheng Academy were handled by Jiao Hong.

Geng Dingxiang walked into the theater, looked at the crowds of people, and said loudly: "Everyone, be quiet, be quiet."

"I won't talk nonsense. I'm meeting friends today. I've sent out invitations for everyone to come. Just one thing, the tax office. This tax office is really a crime! It's a clever name. In a remote place, rice, salt, chicken, and hog are all collected. Tax! It can be described as sucking marrow and drinking blood!"

"Zhang Juzheng takes money too seriously, treats people too lightly, takes money too carefully, appoints people too lightly, and only bribes people to hear. Your Majesty is deceived by him. We must find a way to let His Majesty see Zhang Juzheng's face clearly!"

Regardless of whether it was Zhang Juzheng who submitted a petition for the tax office or tax bureau, or whether His Majesty the Emperor personally issued the order, everyone inside and outside the Ming Dynasty would regard it as Zhang Juzheng's idea.

Zhang Juzheng also did his part and accepted this bad guy.

The Flying Fish Suit is a second-grade gifted uniform. Most of them can only be worn by the emperor's confidants. Ordinary Jin Yiwei cannot wear the Feiyu Suit. The flying fish suit is not a painted fish, but a flying fish pattern. The flying fish pattern is like a python, with fins, a turtle tail, and two horns. Thank you to "Da Da Kang Wang" for the 1,500 point reward. Thank you for your support and recognition. Please give me a monthly ticket, Wow! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
