Chapter 2175 Fang Xing and Zheng He's Alliance
A memorial arrived in the duty room and fell into Yang Pu's hands.
He opened it and took a look at it, and said in surprise: "It's actually a memorial from Xing Hebo. Isn't it straight forward?"
The emperor's confidants and important ministers naturally have the right to send memorials directly to the emperor. Otherwise, the power of the assistant political bachelors is too scary, which can almost cut off the emperor's contact with outside the imperial city.
Yang Shiqi looked up and said, "What did you say? Impeachment? Impossible."
Fang Xing's relationship with the emperor was very close, and it was impossible for him to impeach the emperor directly.
Yang Pu glanced at the memorial, exclaimed, and said, "It is suggested that the Navy merge with the fleet that sailed to the Western Ocean."
Everyone put down what they were doing. If they didn't have to worry about their demeanor, they would all want to squeeze in behind Yang Pu and read the memorial at a glance.
"It is recommended that they all be reorganized into the navy and be subordinate to the emperor."
The new excitement dissipated immediately. Yang Shiqi rubbed his sore eyes and asked, "No more?"
Yang Pu passed the memorial to him and said, "It's just these few lines, very short."
Huang Huai read the memorial, nodded and said, "It's very short, but it's a lot."
Everyone read the memorial, and then squinted their eyes to think about the information contained in those few lines.
"Wu Xun will be disappointed, and the Governor's Mansion will be disappointed."
Jin Youzi murmured, not knowing whether to be happy or sad.
"But the Ministry of War has also been excluded and is subordinate to the emperor. So what is the difference from now?"
"There is a difference."
"What's the difference?"
"It used to be that the Navy's ship crews were still under the control of the Ministry of War. If His Majesty agrees to this memorial, they will become His Majesty's people in the future."
Several people were dumbfounded, and Jin Youzi said in amazement: "He hurried into the palace earlier and looked a little angry. Is that just..."
"Liar!"
"He is good at the art of war, and he has mental arithmetic but no care. Who would have known that he would actually do something like this.
"
"He's crazy!"
A memorial stirred up a storm, but Fang Xing took his wife and children shopping in the city.
Time always flies by so fast, and it feels like the New Year has just passed, but in the blink of an eye, even the corners of the city of Beiping are greener.
Spring is here, and this is the best season. It’s a little early for spring outings, but it’s the right time to go shopping.
Fang Xing didn't seem to know that he had become the center of attention, and he started shopping with his wife and children.
Until noon, the family had dinner outside. Fang Xing asked someone to escort his family there, while he himself went to the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion.
"Sooner or later, you'll have to come, just tell me."
As if they knew he would come, several Wu Xun who originally planned the navy were there, and it was obvious that they had not even eaten lunch.
Fang Xing knew that they had grievances, so he put on a posture of waiting for criticism, and then burped.
This is somewhat disrespectful.
"Uncle Xinghe, the Navy has become His Majesty's. When did you think about this?"
No one dared to question Fang Xing's memorial, otherwise they would not be loyal enough.
Fang Xing said calmly: "With all due respect, if the Navy turns out to be what everyone thinks, under the control of the Governor's Mansion and the deployment of the Ministry of War, Fang dares to say that the Navy cannot be maintained for a hundred years and will definitely be destroyed."
Fang Xing looked at these people and saw resentment and dissatisfaction.
No matter who it was, they were all dissatisfied that Takeru had lost another opportunity.
"The Ministry of War is now Zhang Ben, who will be in the future? Your Majesty can control it now, but who will be the emperor in the future?"
Fang Xing stood up and said, "That's it for now. Please think about it carefully."
He left, leaving several Wu Xun looking at each other.
Later, the emperor summoned his courtiers to discuss the matter.
"The naval force is too expensive. Your Majesty, please control the scale."
After the emperor firmly expressed his determination to support going to sea, no one said that the sea would be banned and ships would be destroyed, but there was a common voice to reduce the scale.
"Tobe."
Zhu Zhanji ordered Xia Yuanji's general, and Xia Yuanji went out and said: "Your Majesty, you brought a lot of gold and silver and some valuable things with you last time when you went to sea. The Ministry of Revenue has already disposed of them. There should be a surplus, and there is quite a lot." "
This is real evidence, and one guy put those doubts to rest.
Who dares to be dissatisfied?
The fleet is not losing money and can still make money!
Fang Xing left work and said: "Your Majesty, the fleet has now controlled the strait. The sea has become Ming Dynasty's bathtub. Countless resources can be mined by Ming Dynasty. This is the greatest benefit."
He looked around at the ministers and said: "There are many gold and silver mines, copper mines and other mines, many of which are more than those in the Ming Dynasty. Plus those fertile lands, can that sea be given up?"
No one answered, but Fang Xing was unreasonable and continued: "Only when the strait is controlled can the Ming Dynasty's sea territory be safe. In the past, people from coastal islands had to be moved in to avoid Japanese pirates. In those days, some people would probably be My favorite”
He looked at the civil servants and said sharply: "The door of the Ming Dynasty has been opened. Don't even think about closing it once it's opened. Anyone who does is either a fool or a traitor with ulterior motives!"
He didn't want to use the word rebel, but the sea was related to the national destiny of the Ming Dynasty, so he naturally didn't hesitate to label him.
So those things that were brewing in the dark were all thrown out by Fang Xing, and then dried in the sun, which made people feel sick.
Chicken-hearted!
Zheng He is also there, and today he actually sides with Wu Xun. This is a dangerous sign.
Zheng He went out and said: "Your Majesty, there are great benefits and great dangers overseas. If you don't take the benefits, others will naturally take them and then strengthen yourself. If you don't surrender the dangers, they will naturally come knocking on your door."
initiative!
Zheng He emphasized that the navy must take the initiative to attack, find benefits and dangers for the Ming Dynasty, and then obtain benefits and suppress dangers.
Yang Rong finally came out of class and said, "Your Majesty, you can't go to sea too often!"
As the Prime Minister, he naturally couldn't sing a different tune from Zhu Zhanji, but he needed to be polite.
This was said as if nothing had been said.
Is this the ability of the Prime Minister to smooth things over?
Several regent scholars were thinking about this, and then wanted to see how the emperor would respond to it.
"Your Majesty, will the enemy of the Ming Dynasty be land or sea in the future?"
Hu Yi didn't say much in the court, but when he opened his mouth, he amazed Fang Xing and others.
This not only eased the atmosphere, but also successfully raised a proposition.
"There is no doubt that the Ming Dynasty has enemies on land and sea, but the future of the Ming Dynasty must be on the sea."
Fang Xing's words were recognized by Zheng He, the most senior navigator of the Ming Dynasty. He said: "Your Majesty, I have seen a lot overseas. The Ming Dynasty should not be afraid, but should explore and control."
When hearing Zheng He call himself a minister, many people's eyelids were jumping.
Is this eunuch going to make trouble?
"But a storm is enough to overturn the fleet of the Ming Dynasty and leave nothing."
Some people raised doubts, which is a manifestation of fear.
Zheng He frowned and said: "When people are at home, disasters come from the sky, let alone at sea. As for the wind and waves, they can be avoided or endured. In the future, the ships of the Ming Dynasty will become more and more solid, which is not a problem."
"But"
Several civil servants wanted to refute Zheng He by saying that people's hearts were scattered, but when they saw Fang Xing standing there, they immediately gave up the idea.
The words of this refutation are still fresh in my memory!
That is a mouse. It only dares to hide at home and dominate all day long. Once it goes out, it becomes a mouse. No, you dare not go out, you are only willing to talk about the three generations of rule within the city walls, and then you think that your wisdom shines through the ages, and no one can match it.
That mean person!
A few pairs of eyes flashed across Fang Xing's body, and then fell into silence.
