How to make a famous minister

Chapter 89

In the seventh year of Chongzhen, Fan Xuanchao's three-year filial piety finally came to an end.In the past three years, although he was in Hebei, the whole world has his great skills.

On the other side of the capital, Zhu Youjian listened to Fan Xuanchao's suggestion and started doing business with the Portuguese.This is not a private business, but for the diplomatic relations and long-term cooperation between the two countries.Zhu Youjian even exchanged credentials with the King of Portugal.

The Portuguese leased Macau, and the port of travel was naturally opened in Macau.But these batches of goods were transported from the East to the West, and at least there were trades along the way. When these precious commodities from the East returned to the European market, they caused a series of shocks.

Knowing that the Ming Dynasty finally agreed to do business, some people's brains became more flexible.Isn't it a pity that the Portuguese family just got rich?Their days of dominance are over.At this time, the overlord of the sea - the Netherlands, naturally began to use their brains to see if they could get a share of it.

When these European businessmen came to the Ming Dynasty, they naturally would not land in the port sites of their competitors. Some of them landed in Guangzhou, some in Wenzhou, and some went directly north to Tianjin.There is nothing to do to make Portugal angry.

Zhu Youjian made a lot of money from it. After the waiting period of the first year, the market opened up, and silver came rolling in.

Therefore, he received soft hands just for collecting money, so that the Donglin Party began to move around in Jiangnan again, and he turned a blind eye.

There is also a reason why Zhu Youjian ignored the small actions of the Donglin Party.

He has decided to fight Hou Jin in the past few years, and of course he needs a stable rear.Stabilize the Donglin Party first, and then liquidate it together after the war is over.It is expected that Han Yu would not have the guts to hold back in such a decisive battle involving the power of the whole country.

As for the intelligence department that Zhu Youjian asked Fan Xuanchao to run, Fan Xuanchao was not left behind.

If the intelligence department comes from behind, it will attract Huang Taiji's attention.So what was cultivated from the beginning?

Shengjing thousands of miles away.

Hai Lanzhu supported the golden hairpin on her head, the pearls on it swayed slightly, rippling softly and roundly.She admired it left and right, and was overjoyed.

"The phoenix pearl bestowed by His Majesty really needs Min'er's craftsmanship to make it look good."

Min'er is Hai Lanzhu's eldest maid. She is not only shrewd and capable, but also has a pair of skillful hands.Not to mention important occasions, Hai Lanzhu, who has always been picky about her daily hairstyle and pursues perfection, has to ask Miner to do it.

Min'er is good in everything, but there is one thing, her background is not good.She is Han Chinese.

As the conflict between the Later Jin Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty continued to intensify, and the population on the border of the Ming Dynasty was plundered, there were actually not many Han people in Shengjing, and there were even Han Chinese court ladies and eunuchs in the palace.

It's just that although these people are also serving in the palace, their status is lower than that of ordinary Manchu Palace people.

Min'er, the celebrity who is next to the most beloved concubine, naturally also received a lot of attention in the palace.

Queen Gege considered that Han Chinese spies had infiltrated the palace before, and asked Hai Lanzhu to drive Min'er out of the palace.

It's just that Hai Lanzhu couldn't leave Min'er for a moment, and refused repeatedly.It was she who had just entered the palace at that time, and Huang Taiji even greeted the queen specially for this, telling her to stop meddling with Min'er's affairs.

Everyone in the harem was in an uproar when they heard the news.She dared to fight against the queen just after entering the palace, and she was also her aunt, and even moved to the emperor to help her out. This Hai Lanzhu is really not a cheap lamp.

Xu Shi had brought so much trouble to the empress right after entering the palace. Min'er had always kept a low profile in the palace, even in Hai Lanzhu's palace, she was very careful.

Now, after hearing Hai Lanzhu's praise, she knelt down and saluted, and said, "It's all about the beauty of the motherland, and with the beauty of the city, this is the only way to hold down this precious Phoenix Pearl."

"Exactly. I am the number one beauty on the prairie, so naturally I have to wear the best jewelry, the best clothes, and my husband must be the number one hero in the world!" Hai Lanzhu looked around again, approaching the mirror Only after she boasted and boasted did she help Min'er up.

"Min'er is really my lucky star. Since Min'er came, I've been able to do one thing after another, and I can still marry His Majesty. Otherwise, I don't know which wretch my father will give me next year."

"Your Majesty saved Min'er, but Min'er has nothing to repay, but only asks to be instructed by your Majesty. What's more, Your Majesty has always loved Your Majesty, so naturally he will not play tricks on marriage."

"My father loves me, but my sister is also his daughter, and my aunt is also his sister." Hai Lanzhu sighed, "Our family has already sent two girls, and my sister has also given birth to a son. The position is stable, so naturally we don't need to worry about it." Fei has a daughter who can marry another family.

But in this world, where is there a more stalwart hero than His Majesty?There is no such thing on the entire grassland, even including the Great Wall, there is no such thing. "

"Your Majesty has now fulfilled her wish. She only needs to give birth to a prince with His Majesty, and she will naturally sit in the harem in the future. Even a mother is more expensive than a child, and it is not uncertain to go further."

"Speak carefully!" Hai Lanzhu glared at her, she couldn't listen to anyone discussing the bad things about Huang Taiji. "Your Majesty is strong and strong, rich in age, even if something happens... I will be the first to..."

Min'er knelt down again, saluted again, and after all the good words, Hai Lanzhu changed her mind again.

"Don't be in a hurry today. His Majesty is discussing Mao Wenlong's style of play with the prince. It may not be finished in a while, and it will be useless to go."

Hearing Hai Lanzhu's complaint, Min'er's eyes flashed a light quickly.But Hai Lanzhu didn't care at all.Although she complained in this way and that, she still asked people to prepare the sedan chair and prepare to go to the main hall.

She still doesn't know that the "lucky star" behind her is actually a disaster star sent by the Ming Dynasty.

In addition to shipping and intelligence systems, Fan Xuanchao caused an uproar as soon as he returned to the court.

Zhu Youjian ordered him to be the prince and Taifu.

The prince is only four years old now, and in terms of age, he is only a little over five years old.Logically speaking, if you were in an ordinary family, you should have reached the age of school.But the Zhu family in the Ming Dynasty had always been independent, and there were not no princes who were enlightened when they were more than ten years old.

It is naturally gratifying that Emperor Chongzhen is so concerned about the prince's studies.But why is Tai Tuo a young man with a hairless mouth?For the Donglin Party, the more important thing is that this Tutor is not from their Donglin Party, so the problem is serious!

Originally, the emperor was not very satisfied with them, and he wanted to let the little prince get closer to the Donglin Party while he was giving lessons.

As a result, it was good that the emperor directly made such a mess.

The Donglin Party was naturally arguing endlessly, and they naturally disliked Fan Xuanchao, who did not rest during his filial piety and started doing things right after he came out.
