This sing of harmony between the monarch and the ministers made these ministers very uncomfortable.

Guo Dan talked about land annexation and couldn't argue with it.

There is no strange statement about land annexation.

This problem lasted for more than two thousand years and plagued every feudal dynasty, but it has never been resolved.

In other words, everyone knows that this is a problem.

The solution proposed by Guo Dan is of course a reasonable solution, and it is reasonable. For example, Wang Jiaping and others think so, but they also know that this is very difficult because it involves a very sensitive issue.

Nowadays, officials and ministers are all reading books of sages and wise men. They only know how to govern a small peasant society. The Confucian classics do not tell them how to manage a commercial society.

Across the mountains!

Then once this is changed, they have no use.

This is the case with Wei Hui Mansion. Now that an official is sent, he just stares at him. If his father-in-law is basically not doing anything, he just cares about his own rouge shop.

Since it affects their interests, it is naturally impossible to do so.

Wanli was just happy about this and didn't say anything, but in fact his inner thoughts were very complicated. Although he was the biggest ruler, he was different from these ministers.

He was not the one who reads books and sages to sit in this position.

He relies on inheritance and hereditary.

There is a fundamental difference.

Moreover, although he is the largest landlord, he is now the largest businessman.

He was the behind-the-scenes contractors of those mansions, and the entire Marseille area also belonged to him.

It was just right again, and Wanli gradually felt dissatisfied with the ministers, rather than just being dissatisfied with one of the ministers like most monarchs.

But at present, he can only rely on eunuchs and Jinyiwei to check and balance.

However, this checks and balances are actually a vicious cycle and one of the culprits that contribute to the current situation.

In the past, when the emperor wanted to kill or punish the ministers, he had to go through three provinces and six ministries. All of them had clear regulations and rules to follow. The Ming Dynasty did not need these because the emperor had the East Factory and the Jinyiwei in his hands, so the emperor could directly order the arrest.

Of course, the ministers of the Ming Dynasty were very eager to limit the imperial power. If they did not limit the imperial power, they would be in danger.

After all, eunuchs and Jinyiwei are just extensions of imperial power. As long as the imperial power is restricted, they will naturally be restricted.

Of course the emperor would not agree.

However, there is no third party in between. As long as a conflict breaks out, both sides can only fight head-on, and there are no other options.

Wanli is not stupid. He has been thinking about why he cooperated with Guo Dan and was able to do everything. Guo Dan has talent, which is second. The key is that after Guo Dan appeared, he became standing in the middle to judge the right or wrong of a thing, rather than standing on the other side.

So should we introduce third-party forces to change this binary opposition situation?

Wanli was a little moved by this.

A typical problem is the dispute over the foundation of the country.

The dispute over the foundation of the country was not invented by the Ming Dynasty. All dynasties had disputes over the foundation of the country.

However, what different from other dynasties is that the Ming Dynasty became a battle between emperors and ministers. Most of the disputes over the foundation of the country in other dynasties were ministers and ministers. For example, in the late Zhenguan period, one faction supported Li Chengqian, the other faction supported Li Tai, and the other faction supported Li Zhi.

Of course, Li Shimin had his own selfishness, just like Wanli, but he did not stand against the ministers. He just weighed the pros and cons in the end. In the end, Changsun Wuji gained power, so Li Shimin naturally chose Li Zhi, supported by Changsun Wuji, to succeed him.

Wanli is completely different. As long as he mentions the foundation of the country, all the ministers will oppose it. Those who want to support him dare not speak out. The key is that these ministers do not have a leader yet. If there is a leader, then it is enough to kill the leader. If there is no leader, then one group will kill another group.

It can be seen that Wanli reuses Guo Danjue not just for money.

After resting in Guo Dan's office for a short time, Wanli suddenly found that the imperial concubine was still in the future. He couldn't help but ask Li Gui: "Are the imperial concubines and the others still visiting the supermarket?"

Li Gui said: "Reply to Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine and the others are resting in Chenlou."

"Chen Lou?"

"Yes."

Guo Dan hurriedly said, "Report to Your Majesty, this Chenlou is the largest hotel in the Marseille region. Beizhi had previously booked some rooms for the Imperial Concubine and the others to rest."

Wanli nodded and said, "Since that's the case, let's go to Chenlou to have a look."

The group left the prize pool hall again, and under the guidance of Guo Dan, they headed to Chenlou again.

“This hotel is not small!”

When Wanli and the others came to the gate of Chenlou, they were shocked, which instantly changed their views on the hotel.

When Yi Nuoya Store opened the door, the door was already dumbfounded for everyone. The door of Chenlou was twice as big as the door of Yi Nuoya Store, and it was also built with stone, but only for the hall outside, the houses behind were mostly made of wood.

When you enter the lobby, you feel that it is similar to the prize pool hall. It is very grand and much more luxurious than the prize pool hall. It is really magnificent.

There were many young men and women in uniform standing inside the hall.

Of course, there are many customers.

There was a sofa in the corner, and the teahouse on the right was already full of people.

Is this a hotel?

It is completely different from what they imagined. The best hotel at present is the official station, which is from the toilet compared to this.

"The grass people bow to Your Majesty, long live my emperor."

I saw an old man kneeling down from afar.

"Is he?"

Wanli said in surprise.

Guo Dan hurriedly introduced: "He is Chen Fangyuan, the owner of Chenlou."

Wanli said: "Let him get up quickly, there is no need to be polite here."

Li Gui quickly asked him to get up.

Chen Fangyuan stood up, lowered his head, and was trembling all over. The emperor went to my shop.

Guo Dan said again: "Your Majesty, Wuzhao Gun promised to help candidates who went to Beijing to take the exam. Now Wuzhao Gun has reached an agreement with Chenlou. During the period of the scientific examination, Chenlou will not open to the public and entertain candidates who come to Beijing to take the exam for free."

"Is this true?"

Shen Shixing asked excitedly.

Guo Dan nodded and said, "Yes."

"Your Majesty, this is a good thing. If candidates from all over the world can stay in such a good hotel, they can perform better in the examination room." Shen Shixing smiled at Wanli with great joy.

Wanli nodded, looked at Chen Fangyuan with praise, and said, "You are intent."

Is Your Majesty talking to me? Chen Fangyuan was so excited that he only knew to open his mouth, but he couldn't speak out. He hated himself so much, and missed the opportunity to talk to the emperor.

Wang Jiaping and the others also showed a smile on their faces. This was a great thing and also increased their favorability for Chen Lou a lot.

This businessman is a businessman, but if you support scientific research and help scholars, then they will of course be happy.

As for Chen Lou, the money is really worth spending. In the future, the top scorers will all be born in Chen Lou, which is undoubtedly the best advertisement.

Standing in the lobby for a while, Chen Fangyuan took Wanli and the others back, walked through a corridor, and came to a fan-shaped door. Chen Fangyuan stopped and heard bursts of women's laughter from inside.

When they entered the door, it turned out that there was a large garden behind them, and most of their families were sitting in the corridor and chatting happily. There were various delicacies on the table in front of them.

When they saw Wanli and the others coming, none of them were happy.

The arrival of the emperor and the others indicates that the women's chat ends here.

It's really disappointing.

"No need to be polite!"

Wanli waved his hand and let the ministers and families not be polite. He went straight to the imperial concubine's table and smiled and said, "The beloved concubine seems to have a lot of fun!"

Zheng nodded straight, unable to suppress his excitement: "Your Majesty, this place is so fun. There is also this Chenlou. I really didn't expect that the room in this hotel would be so clean and tidy."

She said as she rose, pulling Wanli into a room opposite the table

On the other side, Shen Shixing, Wang Jiaping and others did not have the habit of tugging with their wife in public. They did not even communicate with their wives, and even warned them with their eyes that you were having a little crazy today.

Then they entered the room. Although they were husband and wife, they could not say that they would sit together in public. How decent it would be.

“This room is really good.”

Shen Shixing's eyes lit up.

I saw that the room was very large. In addition to the bed, there were also some fruits and tea bags on the coffee table, chairs, wardrobe, and some fruits and tea bags.

It's really all-in-one!

"A few adults want to drink tea?"

I saw a woman in a sesame uniform standing in front of the door with a teapot and asking.

Shen Shixing nodded.

The woman immediately came in and helped Shen Shixing and the others make tea. This tea bag didn't take any effort.

Wang Xijue asked, "Are all this tea free?"
