When Xu Jie, the Minister of Rites, hurriedly entered Yongshou Palace, looked up and saw Jiajing's expression, and his heart was shocked.

As a minister who has been extremely favored in recent years, he accompanied the emperor to practice every day. I don’t know how many people he envied. Although he did not enter the cabinet, in fact, many people regard him as ministers.

Although he was just the Minister of Rites, there was a reason here. He was the Minister of Personnel before and was promoted to the Minister of Personnel by the court. Jiajing still felt that if Xu Jie was asked to be this [Heavenly Official], he would not be able to practice with him. He did not agree, but instead became the Minister of Rites.

The Minister of Personnel! The Heavenly Official was still pushed out by the court. It is conceivable that Xu Jie's power, of course, offended Wen Yuan, the Minister of Personnel. Wen Shangshu had an idea: Although I am old, I wouldn't have to ask your court to recommend a Minister of the Court to replace me?

Although he, the Minister of Rites, is leisurely now, who dares to ignore it?

Just like the censors of the Ming Dynasty, they are only seventh rank, but you dare to ignore it?

There are not a censor who criticized the Shangshu and even the cabinet master, there are not a censor who deleted and revised the imperial edict, and there are not a censor who bullied the concubines and forced the crown prince in front of the emperor Daxing.

In short, Xu Jie, who passed the imperial examination in the second year of Jiajing, was completely a big boss in the imperial court and was qualified to be a backer for others.

After the big boss met on the big week, Jiajing suppressed his anger and threw down the memorial, "Love, look at this memorial..."

Xu Jie, who was kneeling on the ground, opened the memorial and immediately understood what was going on today.

He bowed his body deeply to the ground, but he was thinking in his heart, what should he do?

Jiajing saw him crawling on the ground and was silent, and immediately furious, "Xu Jie, I ordered you to be Tanhua back then (Note 1: Xu Jie was only 20 years old when he passed the examination.). Later, Mr. Zhang said that you were domineering and wanted to demote you to the people. It was me who protected you and asked you to go to Jianning to be the Promoter. My prince wanted to study, and it was me who thought of you immediately and appointed you as the prince to wash your horse..."

At this time, Xu Jie looked up and said, "Your Majesty, I clean my horse for the prince. That's because Tang Jingchuan privately paid homage to the prince..." The meaning of his words was that I became the prince, because you need a prince to clean my horse.

From another perspective, this is equivalent to saying that the boss of the Fortune 500 company in the future commissioned a CEO for the headhunter company. Later, the boss and the CEO had a good time. The boss said that I would promote you and Weimo, are you worthy of me? The CEO said, "I compete with a lot of people, and you are the CEO to be the promotion." I was specially hired by your headhunter company. I rely on my ability!"

Jiajing was furious and turned around and saw an inkstone on the table next to him. He picked it up and smashed it down. Then he was not satisfied, so he pulled out his old fist and kicked it up.

He was an emperor who believed in Taoism, and was quite effective in Taoism. At least, he was much stronger than a scholar who was not diligent in four bodies and was completely different from the grains. He immediately beat Xu Jie to the point of being blue and swollen.

The eunuch Lu Fang, the chief of the Seal Supervisor, who had been silent next to him, came up at this time and hugged Jiajing, "Master, master, you are a god. Didn't Tao Zhenren say that your martial arts can be ranked among the top three in the world. If you beat him again, Mr. Xu will be beaten to death by you."

This dead eunuch is really good at speaking, and it makes Jiajing feel as if his magical power is extraordinary.

Jiajing stood up panting and shook his sleeves, "Hmph! Cough, cough... I, I am a Taoist practitioner, my martial arts are skillfulness, and I am not worthy of Tao."

At this time, Yan Song and Ge Lao Yan were naturally not here. Even ordinary people must understand that teaching children in the main hall and wives in the room, and leaders must understand that they must understand that they cannot criticize another subordinate in front of one person.

Xu Jie, who was beaten up, then reached out and held the crown on his head, and said loudly: "A single step of the emperor is to keep people's livelihood, and it should not be ignored..."

Jiajing was immediately angry again, but the evil fire in his heart had already vented at this time, so he said coldly: "Okay, I want to hear what our Minister Xu can make out."

Xu Jie gasped for a while, and Lu Fang, the eunuch in charge of the seal next to him, brought a cup of tea and bent over to him. He was considered a good person among the eunuchs, and he was called Lu Bodhisattva inside and outside.

After taking the teacup and drinking it all, Xu Jie was grateful and handed over the teacup and said thank you.

Then he said, "Your Majesty, I went to Jianning from the capital back then. That place was the entrance to the Fujian region and the place where all directions were circulating, but I was very poor. I thought, first, I would like to build a rich man and make his family rich. The money was over the Big Dipper and rice became a warehouse. First, wealth was driven and then wealthy. I always asked the local people to eat enough..."

Jiajing couldn't help but sneer, "Oh! So, this Mu Bancheng is still a good-looking man?"

Xu Jie was about to speak, but he felt that the mouth was salty and he immediately reached out to wipe his mouth. Lu Fang was next to him and handed a handkerchief.

Wipe the veil and Xu Jie sighed, "Your Majesty, back then, Your Majesty believed Zhang Fujing's words and eliminated the Maritime Bureau. It was really a mistake to play..."

Lu Fang, who handed him a handkerchief, immediately scolded him, "Absurd, the master is a talented man..."

However, Jiajing stopped Lu Fang's flattery as soon as he reached out, "Continue."

Xu Jie said: "I have never been a lie in the Ministry of Revenue, but I still understand the principle of handling the lie is to get the money..."

If you do something, you will get the money. But when you talk about Jiajing's heart, you can't help but nod.

"If you want to do your job well, you need to have money. I just think that if the Mu family makes money, that's my money. At that time, if you have money, you can build a palace for Your Majesty. I have even thought of the name of the palace, and it should be called Wanshou Palace."

Xu Jie's words were just nonsense, especially his name, and he was even more careless and directly copied Wanshou Mountain. However, he couldn't resist Jiajing's desire to build a house and even became crazy.

The Yongshou Palace where Jiajing lives now is definitely not as good as the Forbidden City. This is a good comparison. Your family used to live in a 200-square-meter house, but suddenly moved you to a small apartment building of 35 square meters. Can you bear it? Maybe you have to think about it, there is not even a place to cross your feet.

This is true for Jiajing.

At this time, when he heard Xu Jie say that he built a palace for him, his name was Wanshou Palace. Lu Fang next to him saw that his master was happy and immediately scolded him, "It's unreasonable. How can you give me a name for your palace..."

Xu Jie immediately took the ladder and went down, "Yes, it's my fault... Your Majesty, in fact, I don't have any way to deal with it. At that time, I was afraid that something would be too big, so I told the Mu family that a wife was the daughter of Tian Family Cave, the chieftain of Yongshun, southwest. I also personally asked her for an imperial edict."

Lu Fang next to him said, "Shilarious Minister Xu, this imperial edict is too rash!"

Xu Jie said lightly: "He was a eldest son of the Mu family, so he didn't have any affairs with the king. Giving him an imperial edict is not a rash."

Lu Fang nodded, but then he thought of... Looking at Xu Jie, who was kneeling on the ground, had a fair face and a short figure.

Lu Fang really remembered that when he ordered Tanhua Lang, his lips and teeth were red, and his graceful young man... he couldn't help but a burst of hair stood up on his back.

Jiajing nodded when he heard this, "Yongshun Chieftain, I have the impression that he is sincere in his affairs with the court and the king."

Xu Jie said, "Yes, Your Majesty is really smart. I think so too. Besides, it is normal to connect Japanese troops along the coast. In the future, the imperial court may have to restrain its troops to fight against Japanese troops, which is a big deal..."

He was true and false, and after he said that, Jiajing turned anger into joy. However, there was another key here, which was money.

When Xu Jie returned to the mansion in the capital, he immediately called his eldest son Xu Fan (Fán, Meiyu) and asked him to prepare 200,000 taels of silver and send it to the palace.

On the second day, Jiajing called Yan Song and Xu Jie, without mentioning yesterday's incident, and said lightly, "Then Jianning soldiers prepare for the road, let them go home to live freely first! Yan Song, come and draft the decree, and ask Hu Zongxian to serve as the Censor of Fujian, and also the Jianning soldiers prepare for the road..."

Kang Fei, who was far away in Jianning, naturally didn't know that soon, he would sit down with Hu Zongxian, the Ming minister of the anti-Japanese war.
