Chapter 113 High-quality East Factory Report
Moreover, he not only sprayed himself, but also brought Tu Long, Gao Panlong and other fellow workers to spray together.
The role of the newspaper's output amplifier is undoubtedly revealed at this moment. A one-sided public opinion has been completely formed in Jiangnan, and the criticism of Emperor Wanli has become the code of wealth... Oh no, politically correct!
In this situation where it is not Chinese, not only those royalists who are full of "loyalty to the emperor" dare not speak, but even the mediators who advocate reconciliation and compromise and make concessions dare not open up. They all shut up their mouths obediently and planned to wait for this public opinion storm to come.
Now they only regret not having run a newspaper like the leader of the Wang League. Although it is better to retreat and build a net than to envy the fish in the wild, this net cannot be achieved overnight. When they launch a new newspaper, the daylily will be cold, so I can only wait for it to be discussed later...
With the penmen spared no effort to incite, the guns with abundant martial ethics became more and more restless. The militia and workers' guards from various prefectures and counties were angry and shouting that they wanted to fight to Beijing. They used the Longqing style in their hands to teach their ignorant son Wanli a lesson!
This booming scene really made local cadres very nervous. They quickly tried their best to appease everyone and never act without permission to avoid the situation being out of control. At the same time, they had to obey public opinion and organize some representatives to go to Pudong to petition.
A bird cannot fly without a head, and a snake cannot do without a head, let alone a disciplined army that obeys commands all actions. How to deal with this situation must of course be followed by the group.
When I arrived at the group headquarters, I found out that Zhao Hao had gone overseas. Of course, I had to wait for him to come back before making a decision.
The group president Jiang Xueying first came forward and did some ideological work for Zhao Hao. He said that the incident happened suddenly and the group had indeed suffered a significant impact. But please stay calm. The group will overcome all the difficulties in the moment and make every effort to ensure that everyone's normal work and life are not affected.
She said that the more others cannot see us, the more we should do it well! The more we want to mess with us, the more we cannot mess with us! As long as we are united, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome, and no one can defeat us!
After much persuasion, they finally calmed down everyone's emotions. Jiang Xueying invited them back to do their ideological work, and then he sent away the petition groups from all over the country.

In that room, the memorials of all officials flew towards Yikun Palace like snow, and they advised Emperor Wanli not to act irritably and not to reverse history!
Not only the officials of the Jiangnan Group, the Shandong Gang, the Shanxi Henan Gang, the Huguang Jiangxi Gang, and even the Sichuan, Shaanxi, Yunnan and Guizhou officials all spoke the same words, saying the harm of the sea ban!
Emperor Wanli was able to make the sweet party, the salty party and the jealous party have a completely consistent position by his own efforts. Not to mention that it is unprecedented, but it has been the only one for scorpion to shit for at least two hundred years.
Even when his grandfather and the civil servant group fought for their father, there were a small group of successors including Zhang Cong, Gui E, Fang Xianfu, etc. supporting Emperor Jiajing’s battle!
Now, no civil servant has come forward to support Wanli in restoring the maritime ban. It is a skill to be able to completely become a lonely person...
In fact, there are not no speculative factions in the civil servant group, and speculative factions always exist in any time and space. However, the previous series of downfalls and competitions for the country have seriously torn apart the relationship between the emperor and the civil servant group.
The gap between the two sides is as wide as the Chu River and Han boundaries. It has reached the point where you don’t look at right or wrong when encountering problems, but only look at the camp.
Since you are a civil servant, you can only compete with the emperor in a tit-for-tat way, and there is no other choice. So there is no middle ground where speculators and mediationists exist.
Moreover, all the officials nowadays are not Wuxia Amon, who hasn't read a few scientific books? I had known that the world was so big that it was far from a corner of China. Many people even had experience traveling around the world. The young scholars and officials have long stopped being complacent and have begun to imagine that the whole world has spoken Chinese.
Even Liu Daxia's grandson became a fanatical conquering faction. Wanli still turned his history here and said that he would restore the sea ban. Isn't it just a slander?
The cabinet and the six departments even made a statement that if there is an edict asking the court to implement the maritime ban policy, they will definitely exercise the right to refute and will never implement this abusive life!
At first, Wanli sneered at the officials' memorials. Anyway, they were always noisy and ended in a hurry, and there was nothing new at all.
However, the cabinet and the Six Sections publicly stated that they would refute his specific edict, which was a fatal blow to Wanli!
Because the position of the civil servant group towards him will be shifted from persuasion to confrontation.
Once the emperor's decree is refuted, his prestige will face great challenges.
Just like his grandfather faced back then, Yang Ting and "received four imperial critics in succession, and held a few thirty memorials." The emperor often felt hated... and felt so angry that he felt so angry when he thought about it.
At that time, Emperor Jiajing either gave in cowardly, and from then on, his prestige was lost and he was ridden by the civil servant group. Or he could only walk one way to the black and insist on doing it.
Although the emperor insists on doing it, the civil servant may not be able to stop him, but please find the person who does this matter yourself... If you smash it at that time, you will be buckled with a tyrant hat, and it will be as majestic as it will be.
Jiajing relied on his own decisive decision and the help of the party, and fought out a bloody path and reshaped his authority!
But Wanli can no longer understand how difficult this path of lonely people is to be covered with blood and thorns.
So he was a little scared and wanted to shrink.
However, at this moment, Zhang Jing came to Yikun Palace with a large box of black materials to ask for a meeting...
~~
The winter of the 18th year of Wanli came very early. It was already the cold wind whistling after October, and the weather was cold and the earth was frozen.
The Yikun Palace is naturally warm like spring. All doors and windows have thick squirrels pasted with thick squirrel curtains, and expensive gray squirrel curtains are hung.
Not only are there earth dragons in the palace, but there are also warm cages in each hall and pavilion.
Warm cages are also called smoked cages. They are divided into two parts: basin and cage, and are very exquisitely made. They are more than one meter high, with gold-plated bronze and cloisonné enamel, which is very luxurious.
But what is really valuable is the fuel of blue flames jumping in the brazier inside, without any fireworks, only the slightest sandalwood.
Because the stove burns sandalwood.
Concubine Zheng was delicate and thought that silver silk charcoal could still smell the smoke, so she started burning sandalwood several years ago.
Sandalwood was very expensive in the Ming Dynasty. It costs ten taels of silver per kilogram on the market, and the purchase price in the palace was eighty taels of silver per kilogram.
Yikun Palace requires 100 kilograms a day...
During the Little Ice Age, the heating time lasts for more than four months every year. The emperor was not old and lacked money to see a ghost.
Back to the point, Wanli, who was standing in front of the imperial case, was sweating profusely, but was not because of the heat, but because of the table of materials.
At this time, Wanli was holding a picture in his hand. Zhang Jing thoughtfully sorted it out too long to read the version. The content on it alone made him sweat in a cold sweat-
What is the Jiangnan Group that has actually controlled Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong and Shandong? These places have only known that there are groups but not the court, and only know that there are Zhao Hao but not the emperor?
They also controlled Huguang, Jiangxi and Shandong. They also formed an alliance with Shanxi, and set up immigration offices and offices in all prefectures and counties in Shaanxi and Sichuan. While constantly attracting immigrants, they are also frantically buying people's hearts and winning over officials and gentry.
What is the Jiangnan Group establishing its own government overseas and has all registered its households. The area of its 18 overseas provinces is larger than that of the Ming Dynasty! It has 20 million most devoted immigrants!
What is the Jiangnan Group? The entire Jiangnan Group has three million militias overseas. They are well-armed and well-trained, no less than the elite of the official army!
What is the Jiangnan Group with sufficient money and grain, ten times that of the imperial court? Especially the steel manufacturing industry is extremely developed, not only is the steel output thousands of times that of the imperial court, but the farmers' farm tools are also better than the embroidered spring swords of the Jinyiwei?
What is the advanced firearm of the Jiangnan Group that cannot be plotted? The Longqing-style rifle with a militia has a performance that is completely better than the bird guns of the Shenji Camp. The Wanli-style rifle equipped by its elite troops can accurately shoot enemies two miles away. Their powerful artillery is enough to destroy the city walls?
What is the Jiangnan Group's warships are extremely powerful, and one can wipe out the imperial navy.
The officials that Jiangnan Group bribed and trained were already spread throughout the court. More than half of the civil servants in the Ming Dynasty were absolutely unreliable, and the remaining half had to be questioned. The bribery of the border generals was even more crazy...
What is the Jiangnan Group openly conducting reactionary propaganda in China, conducting the "Three Rebellions", promoting atheism, publishing "Journey to the West" and other poisonous weeds to discredit Emperor Jiajing of Shizong. The "Thousand Loyal Lu" is called overturning the case for the loyal minister Jianwen, but in fact it satirized Chengzu for being incorrect in his position...
Seeing this, Wanli has already contracted systolic blood pressure of 250%.
What else is there below that Jiangnan Group is crazy about mining overseas, with various gold, silver, copper, iron and tin coal mines spread throughout the 18 provinces. What Jiangnan Group monopolizes the sugar industry, silk weaving industry, cotton and spinning industry all over the world... He can no longer see it.
It is heard that the needle fell in the hall, and Zhang Hong and Zhang Jing stood behind the emperor, not daring to breathe.
"Okay, okay..." After a while, Wanli finally came to his senses. A pale fat face turned blue, and then turned red like a monkey fart, trembling with his cheeks.
Seeing that the sky collapsed and the earth broke, Zhang Hong and Zhang Jing quickly knelt down.
Unexpectedly, Wanli threw the stack of paper on Zhang Jing's face, and roared with bloody eyes: "Drag this dog slave out, really beat him!"
"The Emperor!" Zhang Jing was shocked. Unexpectedly, he still couldn't escape the life of being beaten after working hard for more than two years. "I'm wronged!"
"You still have the face to shout for justice?" Wanli suddenly raised the materials on the table and roared: "In order to protect yourself, you dare to make up these outrageous lies to scare me! Is Zhao Hao awesome? Are you bragging about him like this?!"
"Are they soldiers and generals? If you really say that, I will give up the world to Zhao Hao directly! Why are he doing with Moji in this year?!" Fortunately, because it was too outrageous, Wanli finally came to his senses. He almost didn't wet his pants. Do you know?
"Why are you standing there? Drag him down and beat him hard! If you can't beat him to death, then continue to beat him until he beat him to death!" The Roaring Emperor shouted at the eunuch who was lying at the door: "Do you believe his nonsense too?!"
