18. The Holy Master is afraid of Han Hong

The next day, Cui Zaobi really invited a child to ask for a visit to Tianyan.

Gao Yue invited a kid at the same time.

Li Shi met these two people in casual clothes in the pavilion.

To be fair, Cui Zao came to consult himself and Yuanxiu, how the emperor would make a decision.

Gao Yue followed behind. If Cui Zao Sustained, he would ask for me for Liu Changqing. If Cui Zao was not... Well, he would think of a roundabout way again.

But when the emperor saw Cui Zao, he had a more concerned topic.

As soon as he sat down, the emperor held his back and then mentioned to the two of them carefully: "Have you heard about Han Jiang in the southeast?"

Gao Yue and Cui Zao shook their heads quickly - neither of them were fools, and knew that the emperor was quite afraid of Han Huan's position as the dominant family in the southeast. On the one hand, he called Li Mi, the governor of Hangzhou, to enter the court, and he would probably give Li Mi the position of the chief censor and the chief clerk of Pingzhangshi, which was also regarded as fulfilling his father's promise between him and Li Mi; on the other hand, Li Shi also wanted to use Chang Gun, but he heard that Chang Gun had just passed away on the post of Fujian Observation Envoy, so he had to give up.

In addition to using him as a minister to increase his strength, he just wanted to ask Han Huan's truth and trends.

"This Han Huai is amazing now. I heard that I would buy six million stones of rice in the southeast Jianghuai River and transfer it to the court." The emperor said this in a very strange tone.

Logically speaking, it was a good thing that Han Huan was willing to give the court a full six million stones of rice, but Gao Yue's eyebrows moved slightly and understood everything:

What the emperor was afraid of was not that he could not finish six million stones of rice, but that he could get six million stones of rice. What he was even more afraid of was that this ability was not in his own hands now, but in the hands of Han Huan, the governor of the Navy of Xuanrun Town.

The special persons who were originally supervising the transportation of Jianghuai were Bao Ji and Cui Zong, one was in charge of the eastern section of Bian and the other was in charge of the western section of Bian. Later, Cui Zong was trapped in Li Huaiguang's camp and was unable to perform his duties, so the transfer rights belonged to Bao Ji. However, after the Changwu Army rebelled, Li Shi moved to Fengtian City. Bao Ji brought the goods to the court, but was robbed by Han Huai (Xuanrun) and Chen Shaoyou (Huainan). Emperor Li Shi had no choice but to express his lack of concern for Chen Shaoyou's crimes, but he could only hand over the position of the Jiang Huai Transportation Envoy from Bao Ji to Han Huai's hands.

In other words, the power of the JAC Transportation Envoy was seized by South Korea using force.

The core meaning of Han Huan is "the rice and grain were not obtained by Bao Ji and given to the court, but me."

All the merits are mine.

A satirical scene appeared. Originally, Yang Yan was determined to take over the country's financial power to the central government, but now it was divided into Liu Yan, a judge in the western region, and Han Huai, who was divided into the transfer of the southeast Jianghuai River. Liu Yan could only manage the finances and taxes in the western region, and there must be negotiations with Han Huai River.

And compared with the east and west, Han Huan was obviously more powerful, because in addition to the wealthy in the southeast, he now has another identity, that is, the governor of Zhenhai Army, with countless soldiers, powerful crossbows, and boats under his command. He was also the biggest financial lord for the imperial court to suppress rebellion and war, and was the biggest loyal minister.

Therefore, Han Huan submitted a letter not long ago, saying that after Your Majesty returned to the capital, the people's livelihood, officials and military life would inevitably be difficult. As the saying goes, "I worry that Ao Cang's grain will not be continued, and I worry that the king's grain will be cut off." He also requested that the censor buy 6 million stones of rice from east and west of Zhejiang, and asked for the censor (that is, the constitutional title of censor for his own shogunate staff) forty responsible persons, specializing in the purchase, storage and transfer of this batch of grain.

This stamp almost scared Li Shi to death.

"It turns out that within a year, the imperial court collected only more than 2 million stones of rice from the local area. Now Han Hua can get six million stones at one time. I should be happy, but I should be even more afraid." Li Shi was panicked. He was afraid of the canal transport line being threatened by Huaixi, Heshuo and Ziqing rebellion towns, but now the canal transport line and the rice, grain, money and silk transported were all under Han Hua's control, so he was even more afraid.

What's even more terrifying is that Han Xu also has another killing weapon, the salt in the southeast.

As long as he choked his neck, the court immediately had no rice, money, and salt. Even if Li Shi fled to Danzhou, Hainan, he would not be able to recover the situation.

But the emperor's suspicion about Han Huan could not be so obvious, so he only attacked Gao Yue and Cui Zao indirectly.

The emperor knew that Gao Yue and Cui Zao were both disciples of Liu Yan and were proficient in financial planning. Gao Yue was good at buying fields and Cui Zao was good at converting fortunes, so he happened to ask them for advice, even if he could take some of the benefits from Han Huan, it would be good.

Cui Zaobi also took the plan and cried to the emperor: "I have committed a death sentence, but I really don't dare to plan for Your Majesty anymore."

The emperor waved his hand and said that it was Yuan Xiu's business? "Cui Qing has always been by my side. How can I complicate with my nephew and uncle? No need to worry, you are still my head servant of the household department!"

Cui Zao was so happy that he kowtowed.

As a result, before the knock was over, the emperor heard Gao Yue's crying sound, and he was irritated. One or two asked you something and cried, "What's the matter with Gao Qing?"

Gao Yue choked and wiped the tears with his sleeves. He said something about Xuan Zai (Choi Zai's name is Xuan Zai) just now, which also aroused my sadness.

"You lonely and cold man, do you think of your deceased parents and relatives, or are you feeling that the Miao people are not prosperous? I will allow you to build a family temple after you return to Beijing immediately."

"Yue is indeed lonely and cold, so when he was in the Imperial College of the Imperial College in Chang'an, he was helped by his friends and made some gains when he assisted His Majesty today. However, his friends now have something to do with the rebellion, and they want to repay their kindness but dare not, so they are afraid."

"What does it matter?" Li Shi asked.

Gao Yue recited several poems that Liu Changqing presented to Li Xilie, and then said that although Liu Changqing fought alone and saved the entire Suizhou area, this poem was probably a bit embarrassing.

Li Shi shook his sleeves and said, "What did I think it's the matter!" These poems were written by Changqing when Li Xilie passed away the Han Dynasty, Liang Chongyi. At that time, I also named Li Xilie as the prince of Nanping. Could it be that I still have to pursue my responsibilities?

"It's not your responsibility to rebel from Li Xilie, or who's the responsibility?" Gao Yue thought to himself, but shouted in a daze.

The emperor thought for a moment and said that it was not easy for Changqing to defend his territory, so he asked him to return to Beijing immediately and be a doctor of the Ministry of Rites. It would not be too late to be promoted when he had a suitable position in the U.S.

"The Holy Lord is wise!" Cui Zao and Gao Yue were overjoyed and both expressed their gratitude to the emperor.

Immediately, Cui Zao gave advice to the emperor very happily.

Gao Yue didn't dare to speak for the time being, just listened from the side.

Cui Zao's plan was to mix sand and slowly seize the salt and iron from Han sank, and transfer and briquette.

Then Cui Zao explained the specific plan in detail in detail, involving all aspects, which sounded perfect.

The emperor admired it very much and asked Gao Yue what additions he had.

"Report to Your Majesty, Cui Xuanzai's plan is impeccable, and I dare not do anything extra." Gao Yue said quickly.

"Okay, just do what Cui Qing said." The emperor immediately made the decision.

Gao Yue thought to himself, Alas, Cui Zao is afraid he will be in trouble.
