Chapter 81 Conspiracy, Prince Yu was grief-stricken: Father, is your time really coming to an end? "That's right," Jiajing said frankly, "but we can't rush this matter, we need to plan it well." Jiajing did not hide his purpose from Liu Quan, because there was no need and no meaning to hide it from them. Of course, the most important thing is that no one is blind. Instead of covering up, it is better to state it directly. The Daming Immortal Sect is also his own sect, so he naturally would not do anything to harm the interests of the sect. Looking at Jiajing's calm expression, Liu Quan became serious. He knew that judging from the gentleman's performance, his words did not seem to be aimless. Since he knew the dangers of the spiritual vein business, he still dared to say so. He must have had a perfect plan. “The Wild Market is actually just a bait for the newly opened up land of the Great Wilderness.” "Once the wild market is established, all parties will flock in. This has been said before." Jiajing stared at Liu Quan and said: "You said before that some of the wild markets opened up by the major groups in the Central Plains have spiritual vein transactions. Even the academy is not good at interfering, right?"
"That's right." Liu Quan nodded, with a thoughtful look in his eyes, and then he said suddenly: "Sir, what you mean is..." "It seems you have thought of this," Jiajing nodded, "Without the tacit approval of some of the higher-ups in the academy, or the lower-level ones, I don't think the spiritual vein business will be able to proceed." "At least, I don't think that the major academies that govern such a magnificent world of cultivation are incapable of thoroughly investigating some spiritual vein transactions." "However, spiritual vein transactions are sometimes discovered in the Central Plains, and then uprooted by the academy, causing trouble to the sect..." Liu Quan suddenly paused and looked at Jiajing tentatively, "Are you acting?" Jiajing smiled without comment. All this reminded him of the drama he had performed with the Qingliu and Yan party. There was also a struggle between the Yan Party and the Qingliu faction in the court. Just like Hai Rui's trip to the southeast this time, the Yan Party was digging deep into the roots of the Qingliu behind the scenes, asking Hai Rui to investigate, and then bringing the matter to the surface. From the perspective of the court, they had to take care of it. To put it bluntly, isn't it just internal fighting? The winner gets rich while the loser is labeled as a corrupt official. The Confucianism in this world is a mutated large-scale "Dynasty Style". At least from the few words we know now, its operating logic is not much different from that of the Ming Dynasty. It's human nature, those who are greedy are destined to be greedy! "We are the masters of the Wild Market. Others must get our permission to come in. As the Wild Market grows, the Academy will definitely send people here. No matter what business you do in the future, don't think of bypassing the Academy." "The same principle applies to the spiritual vein business." Having said this, Jiajing simply told Liu Quan what he was talking about in one breath. "Once there is an opportunity, Huangfeng Valley will not miss the spiritual vein business. With the management rights in hand, it will be more convenient for him to act." As he spoke, Jiajing looked at Liu Quan with a test in mind and asked, "Do you think Huang Feng would not be able to think of this?" When asked this question suddenly, Liu Quan seemed to be back to the first time he met the teacher, when he was listening to the teacher’s lecture in the prison cell. He was startled, but after a moment's thought, he said, "Of course he would think of that, so he would definitely seek asylum!" "That's right," Jiajing nodded and said, "He has the management rights in his hands. The wild market has been opened up, which is enough for him to manage cooperation." "By then, there will definitely be a business selling spirit veins in this wild market." "Once the wild market becomes bigger and Yellow Wind Valley has completely taken the lead, we can also fish in troubled waters." Doesn't Jiajing want to be a "big banker"? Yes, but he knows that although Dugu Ying is suppressing Huang Feng in the war of opening up, the Daming Immortal Sect as a whole is not as good as Huangfeng Valley.
Especially the fact that Huang Feng's second daughter entered the Baima Academy made Jiajing pay special attention to it! In such a vast world of cultivating immortals, there are so many geniuses. Why is Huang Feng's second daughter chosen? There must be something outstanding about him! This also indirectly means that Huang Feng has someone in the academy. Regardless of whether it can be useful or not, it should be able to help him get some information. Once there is any sign of trouble, it might work, so the Ming Dynasty cannot touch any business that "Huangfeng Valley" dares to touch! Without any foundation, connections, or background, one can only be cautious. "With the decision-making power of Noshi in hand, we can also use the power in our hands to develop our own business and train some good people to do things. If the situation changes, we can just give it up..." "But all this is based on the premise that we follow the Yellow Wind Valley and let it attract the wind." "If something really happens one day, will the trees fall and the grass scatter in the blink of an eye? We can all see the direction of the wind and retreat bravely..." "The management rights are not in our hands anyway, and the internal factional fighting within the academy has nothing to do with us if it affects the lower levels." "We are the masters of the wild city. As long as we deal with the tail cleanly, I think the academy will not be too ruthless and hold on to it." "A horse cannot grow fat without night grass. If we really insist on harassing them, all the sects that have opened up wild markets will be in turmoil. These superiors know that there is no need to go to such lengths!" "By then, the wild market will have grown big, and the winner of the academy will naturally receive all the profits of the loser. The spiritual vein business will never die out..." “As the market gets bigger, it’s bound to be dirty!” Hearing this, Liu Quan looked at Jiajing and felt a little scared. The gentleman actually thought so far ahead. Indeed, after the wild market became bigger, all kinds of wealth and profits, overtly and covertly, white, black and gray, were raked in. Especially the spiritual vein business, the profits are so huge that it is unimaginable. Who can resist it? Moreover, Huang Fenggu does not need to use open accounts to make such shady and unauthorized profits. He only needs to take care of the people in the academy, and does not need to give the 60% of the profits to the Ming Dynasty. As for the apparent rents and shop profits, compared with these, they seem like small profits, so just give them. "Sir, do you think that old Huang Feng agreed so readily just because he thought of the potential profits?" At this time, Liu Quan also understood and looked at Jiajing with a strange expression. It is obvious that these were calculated by the gentleman. Jiajing picked up the teacup and took a sip without answering. Instead, he said, "The benefits are there." "Anyway, we are doing business with him in a lawful manner." "He won't take it or touch it. If the wild market becomes bigger, others will touch it. Seeing others eating and making a lot of money, if he can resist the temptation, then he will be safe." "But if he can't help himself and pounces on it to take a bite and have a share, he will naturally have to bear the corresponding risks." "But it doesn't matter whether he touches it or not." "Once this hole is opened, the wild market in the wilderness is doomed to never be peaceful, and the major sects in the Central Plains will not allow such a large new land to become devoid of nutrients." "We just need to take shelter under the big tree, take steady steps, and gradually grow stronger step by step." "Until our Great Ming becomes a towering tree, just like the great sects in the Central Plains, no matter how strong the wind is, it will not be moved." "At that time, it will be too big to fall. After that..." Jiajing looked at the drifting clouds outside the window and said no more. "Tsk tsk," Liu Quan smacked his lips and shook his head, expectantly saying, "Old Huang Feng, you must not endure it..." As he thought about it, and looked at Jiajing, whose expression had never changed, he felt more and more that his brain was not even a little bit inferior to that of his teacher.
The little tricks he used as a bandit in the past suddenly seemed so petty in the face of this kind of conspiracy. Half a day later. The two returned to the sect. Jiajing had already given instructions, arranged, and taught everything that needed to be given. With Liu Quan's brain, he would naturally understand it if he thought about it more. Next, Jiajing went to the spiritual field in the back mountain and asked Song Xinchai to help him get some spiritual sources and elixirs for cultivation. While Song Xinchai was away, he dug some spiritual soil and spiritual herbs. After doing all this, Jiajing announced that he would go into seclusion. Liu Quan naturally knew about this. He had seen Jiajing's speed of cultivation and would naturally not delay him. But he will be busy next, so the training of the little guys will fall on Song Xinchai, Dugu Xiong and Dugu Han. Who asked the headmaster to retreat, and the old craftsman Liu wanted to build a shuttle for the sect? This time, Jiajing did not retreat in the Heritage Pavilion, but returned to his own courtyard. However, he was not in a hurry to return to the Ming Dynasty. Firstly, it has only been a month since I last left, and nothing has happened in Ming Dynasty. Secondly, the national policy of stationing troops to promote agriculture had to be prepared in the 40th year of Jiajing, and spring planting officially began from February to March of the 41st year. Therefore, it is only May now, and we still have more than half a year to prepare. The Yan Party and the Qingliu were still in the process of "deploying troops and generals", and he saw all of this when he was watching and listening to the world. The two sides were arguing over the candidate to take charge. After setting up a large formation and layers of restrictions, Jiajing began another round of seclusion. A month and a half later. In the room, Jiajing exhaled a breath and slowly opened his eyes without any surprise in his eyes. He was at the fifth level of Qi training, and he didn't move at all. "It's time to go back." Thinking of this, Jiajing calmed down the surging spiritual energy in his body. After his mentality gradually calmed down, he slowly closed his eyes. "Buzz." As a ripple in space arose, Jiajing had returned to the Ming Dynasty. In the temple on the Taoist platform, Jiajing slowly opened his eyes. It was late at night when he returned, so when he arrived in Daming, it was naturally noon. "Your servant Lu Fang, respectfully reports to the Supreme Great Luo Celestial Being/Purple Extreme Immortal/Holy Wisdom/In charge of the Three Origins/Certified by Yuxu/General Manager of the Five Thunders/Xuandu Realm/Emperor Wanshou, Your Majesty..." As soon as I came back, I heard Lu Fang's voice outside the door. "The elder Yan recommended Tang Shunzhi as the governor-general of Xuanda, to be stationed in Datong. The Qingliu recommended His Royal Highness Prince Yu as the governor-general of Xuanda. The younger elder requested that His Royal Highness Prince Jing be appointed as the governor of Datong. The two sides are deadlocked and have submitted their memorials. Please make a decision, my master..." Governor-General of Xuanda, Governor of Datong? After hearing what Lu Fang said, Jiajing suddenly understood, and at the same time, he also understood the purpose of the Qingliu and Yan Party. Tang Shunzhi was appointed governor-general of Xuanda. Jiajing knew this man. He was of the same type as Hu Zongxian, and belonged to the Yan Party. Both were capable of getting things done.
Obviously, Yan Song needed to replicate another governor of Zhejiang, one in the south and one in the north to serve as pillars. The Qingliu obviously did not trust the Yan Party and demanded that Prince Yu take charge in person. This was considered an action taken by all Prince Yu's faction. As for King Jing, it was obvious that the Yan Party had also begun to fight desperately. Both sides realized that with the restoration of the frontier garrison system and the fixation of the Ming Dynasty in the north and south, their next step would be to rectify the administration of officials. Therefore, they are all afraid that their faction will be liquidated, so in this war, one side must fall. Jiajing instantly understood the purpose of Qingliu and Yan Party. His eyes flashed. He raised his hand to pick up the bronze cymbal hammer and waved his hand. With a "clang" sound, the bronze cymbal made a buzzing sound and Lu Fang's voice outside the door stopped abruptly. "The master has come out!" Lu Fang was delighted. He quickly tidied up his clothes and knocked on the door. "Come in." Jiajing said, and stood up and walked out of the retreat. At this time, Lu Fang pushed the door open, slid down on his knees, and said loudly: "I congratulate the emperor on his advanced cultivation and coming out of retreat!" "May the Holy Emperor be at peace!" "Oh," Jiajing's face relaxed and he chuckled, "I'm fine. Take a bath!" "Yes!" Lu Fang hurried out and asked the eunuchs to get ready. After a while, Jiajing lay comfortably in the bathtub. After washing and changing clothes, Jiajing put on a comfortable white Taoist robe and sat in the temple. "I have heard your prayers," Jiajing said, throwing a green spiritual fruit to Lu Fang, "This is a spiritual fruit." "Thank you, master!" Lu Fang was overjoyed after getting another delicious meal. He picked up the spiritual fruit and started eating. "You will go and tell everyone in the cabinet that they will discuss politics in Yuxi Palace tomorrow," Jiajing said, raising his finger, "Oh, and Prince Yu, it's time for me to meet this son..." "Yes!" Lu Fang was not surprised that his master wanted to meet Prince Yu. It was all nonsense that two dragons should not meet each other. The master is now an immortal! Later, the imperial edict was issued, and the Yan Party and the Qingliu naturally received the news. For a while, each party had different thoughts. This was because this time, the emperor actually called Prince Yu. Prince Yu’s Mansion, in the main hall. The Qingliu faction, Xu Jie, Gao Gong, and Zhang Juzheng were all there, but there were two more people, Hai Rui, the head of the Ministry of Revenue, and Wang Yongji, the newly promoted Zhanshi of Prince Yu's Palace! Originally, Tan Lun was still in charge of the replacement of rice with mulberry in the southeast. After all, this matter was finally discovered by the Qingliu party. At this time, everyone was looking at Prince Yu, who was standing there with a strange expression on his face after he had sent the little eunuch away. "Your Highness?" Zhang Juzheng called softly. "Two dragons don't meet, two dragons don't meet... why do they meet suddenly?" Prince Yu muttered to himself, looking around at everyone, and suddenly he staggered and was supported by Gao Gong. "Father!" Suddenly, Prince Yu broke down, tears welled up, and he said sadly: "Is it true that my father's time has come?" When everyone heard this, they all thought of their previous speculations. Suddenly, their bodies shook and their faces changed suddenly. Could it be that His Majesty will announce something tomorrow? For a moment, everyone was in a state of confusion. After all, he was their king and father, and for a moment, everyone looked sad!
Hai Rui, who was sitting in the corner, was also startled. Then he thought of his previous experience and looked at Prince Yu who was crying. Finally, he lowered his head silently. He was not sure in his heart, but his mind was already extremely confused. After arriving in the capital, he was summoned personally by Prince Yu. Prince Yu only told him some of his ideas alone, so he had a lot of good feelings towards this person who was very likely to inherit the throne. It was only after arriving in the capital and interacting with people like Qingliu that he learned so many things that he had not seen or expected. For example, some of your majesty's actions have harvested the Qingliu and Yandang factions and raised military supplies for the north and southeast. The seven auxiliary policies nailed Yan Song's rice-to-mulberry policy. There are also speculations by Qingliu and others that His Majesty is paving the way for the new monarch. He finally realized that he had misunderstood his father. After all, I am in a small space, and all I can see is the sky as big as a wellhead! It is too arrogant for an ant to ask the heaven! Therefore, the memorial to heaven was burned by him. When he heard the news, he was even more confused, with his heart full of guilt and complexity. "..."
