After a long journey, Zhang Fengyi finally fell ill! She was very ill, her forehead was hot, and she remained unconscious...

After the doctor looked at it, he only said that the wind evil invaded the internal organs and prescribed a few doses of medicine. After feeding Zhang Fengyi, Lin Chunhong and Cui Yuer had no intention of leaving. Cui Yuer sat beside the bed, glanced at Lin Chunhong, and spat: "You will be heroic! What should I do if I am injured?"

Lin Chunhong untied her outer shirt, revealing her soft armor, and said, "It's okay! She will never be able to untire her knot after she is stabbed, and it's not a solution after all!"

Cui Yuer sighed slightly and remained silent.

Lin Chunhong continued, "It's you! Are you sure she won't hurt you? What if she hijacks you and comes to threaten me?"

Cui Yuer changed a cold towel to Zhang Fengyi's forehead, stared at Zhang Fengyi, and said quietly: "Sister Fengyi is upright and honest, so it will never be like this! Alas... women are all suffering from their lives..."

As he was talking, Zhang Fengyi suddenly screamed: "I don't...I don't..."

Lin Chunhong and Cui Yuer were startled. Seeing Zhang Fengyi's emotions excited, she kept tossing and turning, and the towel on her forehead also fell on the bed.

Cui Yuer quickly pressed and put the towel on Zhang Fengyi's forehead again.

"Mom...I really don't...Ma Xianglin wronged me...I have no affair with Lin Chunhong...Woooo..."

Zhang Fengyi's screams were so sharp that she even started crying in a coma. Cui Yu'er couldn't stop her tears from falling.

Lin Chunhong's heart was as if he was cut by a knife, and he felt depressed in his chest, wishing he could beat Ma Xianglin up immediately and let out a vent. But can he do this? His appearance will only confirm the rumors and will completely make Zhang Fengyi have no happiness again.

Lin Chunhong felt a deep sense of powerlessness. He had a powerful cannon and unparalleled force in the world, but in the face of powerful social customs, he had no choice! He remembered Tang Jikede, rode a thin horse and launched a desperate attack on the windmill. Now he is so similar to Tang Jikede!

"Come on... Xuan'er, let your mother be... Nian'er! Don't bully your sister... throw your broken wooden gun aside... I'm so dirty... I'm not serious all day long, I'll only play tricks and guns..."

"Xuan'er... Nian'er, I'm sorry for you... After my mother finishes the war, I'll be the cat ears of Shanxi for you..."

"Mom...you just let me see Nian'er and Xuan'er...Mom, my daughter-in-law begs you..."

Lin Chunhong could no longer hold it back, and two lines of tears slid down his face...

Cui Yu'er had already cried into tears, patted Zhang Fengyi's body, and comforted her with sobs: "Sister Fengyi, when you get sick, I will accompany you to see Nian'er and Xuan'er..."

Zhang Fengyi was still talking nonsense:

"Lin Chunhong, you said the sea is magnificent. When will you take me to see the sea?"

"The warship is bigger than a castle? Is it a slim brat? A warship has hundreds of red cannons? I don't believe it!"

"Lin Chunhong, let's ride together and sweep the thieves around the world, okay? Well, you're right, the Jurchens are the strong enemies! Then let's fight to Liaodong together..."

...

"Mom... Mother-in-law said, let me go back to Douzhuang... Mom, don't scold me, I wasn't divorced, it was my mother-in-law who sent me back to help me fight the thieves..."

Lin Chunhong couldn't bear to listen anymore and said to Cui Yuer: "You just work harder and wait for her health to be better. Please advise her to lead troops back to Shanxi..."

Lin Chunhong turned around and left the room silently...

※※※※※※※※

Let’s talk about the fact that after seeing Lin Chunhong’s memorial, Zhu Youjian was quite regretful when he saw Lin Chunhong delivering dried fish with pleasure. He secretly made up his mind that if Qin Liangyu succeeded this time, Lin Chunhong would lose the foundation for rebellion. He would definitely transfer him back to the north and reuse him, and would also be promoted and given a title, so that he would never lose a good result.

Lin Chunhong suggested to build a salt field in Qiongzhou Prefecture, which was specially used to make dried fish. Zhu Youjian waved his red pen and drew a big red hook, and warned Lin Chunhong to take care of it and never let the salt in the salt field flow into the salt market.

Lin Chunhong suggested that the court organize fishing and making dried fish. Zhu Youjian was quite moved and handed over the matter to the court for discussion.

Zhu Youjian thought that such a strategy of more pros and less pros and cons would inevitably be supported by civil and military officials in the court. Unexpectedly, the result of the court's discussion surprised him. The ministers in the court almost formed the same voice and advised Zhu Youjian to do this strategy at the top of his lungs!

There are many reasons for opposition:

Those who consider far-reachingly claim that the court is still in a difficult position to deal with the mainland. If fishermen are allowed to go to sea, they will inevitably invest huge amounts of money to build a navy. How could the court take out so much money?

The stubborn people claimed that after fishermen went to sea to catch fish, the court would inevitably be unable to control it, and it is likely that the disaster of Japanese pirates during the Jiajing period will be reproduced. Now there are bandits inside the court and Jurchens rampant outside. If the disaster of Japanese pirates occurs again, how will the court respond?

The nonsense claimed that a large number of refugees were gathered to make dried fish. Once they were provoked by bandits and rebelled, they would inevitably cause harm to the sea and poison the people.

Those who have ulterior motives tried their best to attack Lin Chunhong, who proposed this strategy, claiming that Lin Chunhong's actions were not only equivalent to warlords, but also bewitched and troubled people everywhere. This time, he proposed a strategy to destroy the country, and not killing it is not enough to thank the world!

...

Zhu Youjian was dizzy and he couldn't understand why such strange reasons came out just because the court organized fishermen to go to sea! Now it is not a fisherman who has gone to sea to fish! Moreover, why is Lin Chunhong making dried fish in Guangdong, so why is there no such messy things?

Zhu Youjian realized that these ministers must have an ulterior motive!

Zhu Youjian couldn't understand thoroughly and couldn't help but ask Cao Huachun around him. Cao Huachun said in one sentence: "After Zhang Yixian was in charge of minting coins, he was more jealous of foreign ministers!"

Zhu Youjian suddenly realized that it was a dispute between the inner and outer courts!

In fact, both Zhu Youjian and the ministers in the court knew very well that the so-called dispute between the inner and outer courts was essentially a dispute between the monarchy and the ministers, and the focus was on the emperor and ministers. The eunuchs were nothing more than parasites on the monarchy. Without the support of the emperor, a single edict could make them doomed!

At the beginning, Zhu Youjian handed over the coins to Zhang Yixian and stipulated that the benefits obtained were included in the treasury and were not related to the Ministry of Revenue of the Foreign Court. In other words, the Ministry of Revenue of the Ming Dynasty would never know how much money the court could have, and it would be even more impossible to formulate a detailed fiscal budget based on it. Zhu Youjian's move was strongly opposed by the ministers, but Zhu Youjian insisted on his own and forcibly promoted the matter of minting.

The foreign court has always been resentful about this matter and has submitted memorials every now and every now and tried to divide the benefits of coin to the Ministry of Revenue. Zhu Youjian left all such memorials, which is very popular with you, and I will do my own thing.

Whether it is the ministers in the court or the eunuchs in the palace, they are very sensitive to changes in power. The eunuchs found confidence in Zhu Youjian's move, and their behavior became increasingly arrogant, and their power became increasingly large. The ministers in the court tried to kill the revival of the eunuchs in the bud and kept sniping the eunuchs' forces.

This time, the ministers finally found an opportunity to snipe Zhu Youjian’s strategy of fishing in the sea!

The ministers’ subtext is: It’s okay to fish and make dried fish, but first, give us the right to mint and fishing!

Zhu Youjian was familiar with the records of the past dynasties and was well aware of the power struggle between ministers and eunuchs. Since he became his ancestors, the power of ministers has become increasingly greater, which is mainly reflected in the gradual expansion of the power of the cabinet. Until the Longwan period, Emperor Longqing was faintly weak, and the newly succeeded Emperor Wanli was young, and the power of the cabinet reached its peak. After Emperor Wanli became an adult, the power of the cabinet was weakened for a while, which caused extreme dissatisfaction among ministers. The emperor and ministers began to have a cold war. During the Tianqi period, Wei Zhongxian took power, and the power of the cabinet was severely weakened for a while. It was not until the early years of Chongzhen that he took a breath and was in a gradual expansion.

No one likes that his power has been eroded, and Zhu Youjian is no exception. He keeps thinking about ways and trying to make the ministers give in!

When Zhu Youjian was still thinking about countermeasures, Qin Liangyu's war report arrived in the capital, and stated that the plan was discovered by Bangtai before it was launched, so he had to stop advancing. After Zhu Youjian received the report, he was not happy or worried. After all, compared with the imminent bandits, Lin Chunhong's rebellion was a matter of nowhere. Moreover, Lin Chunhong was still obedient and actively proposed the court's financial plan, which seemed quite loyal and righteous.

According to past practice, if the plan fails, the court will not lose any losses, and Zhu Youjian has no intention of prosecution. However, now the monarch and ministers are in a state of opposition. How can Zhu Youjian, who is short of bargaining chips, let the opportunity to slip away in vain? Zhu Youjian immediately ordered the cabinet to hold the plan accountable for the failure and gave the world a satisfactory explanation.

How could the ministers not understand what Zhu Youjian meant? They focused on Wen Tiren and saw how he responded.

To hold the plan accountable for the failure of the plan, Wen Tiren, as the planner, naturally cannot escape, and the Ministry of War, as the order issued, is naturally unreliable. Qin Liangyu, as the executor of the plan, should naturally be beaten. However, can Wen Tiren handle it like this? Obviously, it cannot. This will not only bring himself in, but also be drowned by the ministers' spits!

It should be said that when the monarch and the ministers fought against each other, the cabinet chief minister was caught in the middle and was a slut. Not only did the emperor feel dissatisfied with him, but the ministers also accused the chief minister of not seeking more power for the foreign court. Wen Tiren is now like a young wife who is angry, and is not a person inside and outside. After thinking about it, there is no other plan, so she had to retreat to advance and submit her resignation to the emperor.

The meaning of this resignation is quite rich. It clearly tells Zhu Youjian that the emperor should take a step back, otherwise the court will fall into turmoil. At the same time, it also announced to the ministers that whoever feels that he can win this battle against the emperor will do it, I will just stop it!

The effect of the resignation was immediately reflected, and Zhu Youjian immediately comforted Wen Tiren, and the ministers temporarily stopped making more excessive demands. In the end, both sides made a concession, and Zhu Youjian still included the profit of minting coins into the treasury and no longer mentioned the matter of making dried fish; the ministers no longer asked Zhu Youjian to hand over the profit of minting coins, and left the matter of making dried fish behind.

As for the benefits of making dried fish to the entire Ming Dynasty, no one cares about it anymore, just like Lin Chunhong never proposed to make dried fish.
