Chapter 327 The Emperor's Give

Will it be the Yangtze River or the Yellow River in the future? This question seems simple, but it is actually very difficult to deal with, because choosing one is equivalent to denying the other, which will be contrary to the previous statement, and is tantamount to slapping yourself.

But the emperor had to answer his questions, and Chen Si had to show his rogue spirit and said: "I only know how to share my worries for the emperor. If Your Majesty needs me to be the Yangtze River, I will be clear and clear. If I need me to be the Yellow River, I will be immediately turbid and not hesitate!" Obviously, observing Senior Yan's performance is of great benefit.

Jiajing didn't expect that silently answered, and couldn't help laughing: "Little slip-on, I don't know how to answer, so I kicked the ball back to me. Are you considering that I'm sharing my worries?"

Chen Jing was a little embarrassed and said, "Weichen really doesn't know how to answer. He just feels that both old masters have good things and bad things. Weichen doesn't want to be like them. Weichen thinks that maybe we can improve it even more."

Emperor Jiajing nodded and said, "The younger waves of the Yangtze River push forward the older waves, and each generation is stronger than the other. This is what it should be." He said, "But it's too early to say anything now. If you fail the Jinshi exam, everything will be useless."

Chen Si quickly asked, "What the emperor means is that I can still participate in this year's spring examination?"

"If you want." Jiajing smiled faintly and said, "Go. You did a good job this time, and I want to give you some rewards." He waved his hand and asked Huang Jin to come over and said, "Go, take a pill of my spiritual pill..."

silence:"……"

"My spiritual pill can cure all diseases and increase life span for seven years." Jiajing said proudly: "Apart from the three guys who came today, only Lu Bing has enjoyed it with his ministers."

Chen Si quickly put on an excited expression and said, "Emperor, Emperor, Wei, Wei, Wei..." He choked and couldn't speak. Jiajing thought he was flattered, but he didn't know that Chen Si was simply frightened... That thing was severely over the standard. It is said that Master Yan had eaten chrysanthemums, and Chen Si didn't want to repeat the same mistake. Besides, even if he couldn't eat anyone, heavy metal would be deposited in his body. What if he had a son without an asshole in the future?

So he made up his mind and hid the pill when he went back, and waited for the science to be successful in the future, so that future generations could test it to see what the hell was eating in Emperor Jiajing.

Huang Jin quickly returned, carrying a beautiful celadon bottle on a tray, walked to the silent face, and heard Emperor Jiajing say, "Don't think I'm stingy. This elixir uses hundreds of materials that are more than gold, and the cost is extremely high. And I can't make a few of them in one furnace. There is only one, and there is no other gift."

Chen Si quickly knelt down and said, "Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness. How dare I? If I can have such a pill, I am lucky enough to have three lives, and the blue smoke comes from the ancestral grave."

Huang Jin handed the bottle to his hands and whispered: "You have to accept it on the spot because of your Majesty."

‘Ah…’ Chen Si almost screamed in surprise, pulled out the bottle plug tremblingly, and saw a bright red egg-sized pill inside. I am afraid that it will not poison anyone and can choke people to death.

Huang Jin brought him another bowl of water, and it seemed that he had to eat it.

Sinu held the bowl of water and pinched the big, round and red pill. He didn't move for a long time. After a while, tears fell from tears.

Emperor Jiajing said strangely: "Why are you crying?"

Silently put down the bowl and wiped the tears and said, "I am so damnable to lose my manners before the king... I just remembered the father who was far away, both father and mother, and had worked hard to pull me up. His health was not good at all. I was frightened and scared about my case. Now I don't know what happened..." As he said that, he leaned over and asked, "I beg your Majesty to give this elixir to my father and let me take it back..."

Emperor Jiajing fought with the court officials for more than ten years for the sake of his parents. Regardless of whether he was really filial or not, he now believed that he was a filial son. He was very moved to hear this and said, "Filial piety is the first priority. You can think of your father in front of the magic medicine. This shows that you are a filial and good child. How could I blame you?" He waved his hand and said, "Take this pill back."

"Thank you for your kindness." Chen Si secretly wiped his sweat. Before he could have time to be grateful, he heard the emperor say generously: "I established the country with filial piety in the Ming Dynasty, and filial piety should be rewarded. Huang Jin, go get another one..."

Silence almost lay on the ground.

Huang Jin had to go back and get one. Emperor Jiajing said with some pain: "There is no one to transfer this one, right?"

Silent blinked, and said hard: "I have... my fiancée, who was originally a lady from a wealthy family, but she accompanied me to the north for thousands of miles, sleeping in the snow and wind, and serving me without any consequences. However, she became ill due to long-distance travel and overwork. She fell ill when she arrived in Tongzhou. She has not recovered yet..."

"Mother-in-law's fool, I only have others in my heart, but I don't have myself." Emperor Jiajing laughed and cursed: "Take it back, take it back, you have no blessing to save yourself, but I can't blame me."

This is the excretion of the guests. Chen Si hurriedly bowed and retreated, and left the palace under the guidance of the eunuch.

In this room, Jiajing had already entered the quiet room and sat cross-legged on the cushion, starting his preparations before meditating every day.

Huang Jin held a water cup with gold-inlaid jade in one hand and holding the same pill as before in the other hand. He walked to Jiajing and whispered: "Master, it's time to enter the pill."

Jiajing poured out the 'big red egg' from the porcelain bottle, opened his mouth and put it in his mouth. He swallowed it hard with water. He choked and rolled his eyes. Huang Jin quickly stepped forward to caress His Majesty's chest. Jiajing said a little depressedly: "You said Tao Tianshi is the same, can't you refine the elixirs smaller?"

Huang Jin smiled and said, "Why don't you, let's cut it and eat it next time."

"Idiot, cut open the spiritual energy and dissipate." Emperor Jiajing said with a blank look: "I don't even understand this common sense. If you go out, don't say you will follow me for many years, so as not to be embarrassed by me."

Who can serve the emperor is not a person with clever ears and eyes? After hearing Jiajing's seemingly heartless joke, Huang Jin was so scared that his face turned pale. He knelt down and kowtowed, "Master, don't drive me away, wuwu..." As he said that, he burst into tears.

Jiajing was so amused and laughed, so he had to give up meditation and kicked him, "Okay, stop crying, look at your promising prospects, and you were so scared before you even told you to do something."

Huang Jin's fat face was full of tears and said, "We eunuchs are all slaves of the master. The status of this slave depends on whether it is favored or not. If the master drives me out, they will not have to trample me to death..."

"No!" Jiajing felt very happy when he heard this. He wanted this feeling and said, "I asked you to go to a place that everyone yearns for and do an errand that everyone envies. You must be more glorious than being by my side."

Huang Jin sobbed, "That's not better than the side of the master."

"There is nothing," Jiajing pretended to be angry, "I don't like disobedient slaves!"

Huang Jin quickly said honestly: "I am obedient, and I am obedient than anyone else. Master, please tell me, let me go up to the mountain of swords and go down to the sea of ​​fire, and I don't blink at all!"

"I can't bear to leave you as good as a slave." Jiajing laughed and said, "Okay, let me tell you, I'm going to let you go south."

"Going south?" Huang Jin said with wide eyes.

"Go to Zhejiang," Jiajing said in a deep voice: "Come back on the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau and Maritime Bureau! You came from there, and you have to do this."

"Oh, I understand..." Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau and Maritime Bureau, one in charge of the construction of silk cloth and the other in charge of the official trade with the West, were both in the inner court's yamen and directly affiliated with the Silijian. It was because Huang Jin was very good at doing his job in the Manufacturing Bureau that he was promoted to the Silijian by Jiajing.

He was also very lucky. He left Jiangnan and then came. When the war broke out, the merchant ships of the Maritime Bureau could not leave the sea. The popular silk, tea, porcelain and other commodities in the Ming Dynasty could not be cashed in. This loss alone was at least tens of millions of taels of silver a year.

"I have learned from my mistakes." Emperor Jiajing recalled: "When the sea was unobstructed, our Ming Dynasty spent money like flowing water, but we were never embarrassed to this point today... My bedroom and the city walls of the capital have no money to repair it; if the earthquake occurs, we have to borrow the money from the big households to provide disaster relief."

"The country has no money, but these things must be done. The court has to impose additional taxes on the people. I heard from Lu Bing that some provinces have already imposed taxes for the 40th year of Jiajing! I eat Mao's grain and Mao's grain, and there is always a day to eat." Emperor Jiajing looked at Huang Jin with anticipation and said, "Why is this? It is because the trade of the Maritime Manufacturing Bureau has stopped, and the silk and satin of the Manufacturing Bureau has been crushed into mountains. I can only watch the old and growing hair day by day, but I can't get money. What do you think should I do?"

"Reopen the Maritime Warehouse Department." What else can Huang Jin say?

"I really like you." Jiajing smiled with a happy face: "I have done this job well, and Li Fang will retire in the future, and his position will be yours."

"Thank you, Master." Huang Jin was almost worried, but he was still full of gratitude in front of him. But he knew that ugly words had to be said in front of him, so as not to be difficult to do in the future: "But... there are pirates on the sea, and our ship cannot leave the sea. No matter how good the servants do, it will be useless."

"Don't worry, Yu Dayou's naval army has been built." Jiajing said, "I will give him an order and give you all my strength to escort you." He said, blinking and smiled, "And I will send another Hangzhou magistrate. When you encounter difficulties, go find him. He will definitely cure the disease."

"Who is so amazing?"
