Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

Chapter 774

The morning sun dispelled the darkness, and the Forbidden City was glowing with golden light, and the oppressive atmosphere shrouded it. At that time, the Wenhua Palace was deathly silent.

The assistant ministers staying in Beijing, Xu Guangqi, the chief assistant of the cabinet, Bi Ziyan, Huang Liji, and Liu Hongxun, the group assistants of the cabinet, sat on the official hat chair with solemn expressions.

"Let's talk about it, whether there is a rebellion under Jiangnan's rule, should we rush it to Yuqian?"

Xu Guangqi frowned, and looked at Bi Ziyan, Huang Liji, and Liu Hongxun, "According to the military information collected before the Liao Dynasty, the battle situation in the Liaozuo area was at a stalemate, and the Western Liao side dispatched a large army to launch a counterattack against the invading Jianlu partial division.

In such a situation, if Liaoqian knew that there was a large-scale rebellion in Nanzhili, Fujian, and Zhejiang, it would inevitably affect His Majesty's personal conquest, which would be extremely detrimental to the country. "

"This matter cannot be hidden."

Bi Ziyan frowned and lifted his sleeves, "According to the urgent report submitted by Hong Chengchou, Minister of the Ministry of War, the rebellions in the Jiangnan provinces are extremely serious.

If it cannot be calmed down as soon as possible, the rebellion is bound to sweep the entire Jiangnan.

Once such a situation occurs, the situation for Guochao will become more and more passive. After all, the taxation of the southern provinces has always been the focus of Guochao. "

"Old Bi Ge, the crux of the problem now is His Majesty's personal conquest. The stalemate on the Liaozuo front line is the deadliest thing."

Huang Liji frowned and said: "If the news of the Jiangnan rebellion is passed to the imperial court, it will affect the morale of the Liao army and cause bad things to happen.

That was the most critical moment.

Since His Majesty's personal conquest, both the treasury and the Ministry of Internal Affairs have allocated a large amount of food and salaries to completely suppress the Jianlu rebellion and regain the lost land in Liaojiang. "

Liu Hongxun remained silent.

Ever since Emperor Chongzhen declared the banner of the reform and was influenced by the left front of the Liao Dynasty, he wanted to conquer by himself. This caused serious differences and contradictions in both the court and the locality.

As the cabinet ministers that Emperor Chongzhen relied heavily on, the ministers who stayed in Beijing, headed by Xu Guangqi, knew very well what kind of crisis the Ming Dynasty was going through.

"Your Majesty will fight in person, and you will not be defeated no matter what. This is the core."

Xu Guangqi continued: "For this war, even though the Ministry of Internal Affairs uses Huangzhuang Huangtian as an anchor, the scale of war bonds that can be sold to the outside world is really too large.

2000 taels of silver!
This is not a small sum.

Once the war situation before the Liao Dynasty reversed, it would be a bad thing for Guochao, and a large number of people would inevitably go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to run on it.

With regard to the current tax situation in the state, if you want to make up for the hole in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, you must at least tighten your belt and repay it for several years. After all, there are many places that need to pay for the government. "

Affected by the region, Liaozuo, which is thousands of miles away, the capital wants to know the situation, even if it is [-] miles urgent, it will take several days to know.

"This is what Honsuke is most worried about."

Bi Ziyan was silent for a moment, and expressed his worries, "Your Majesty really paid too much attention to the Liaozuo battle, and even wanted to promote too many strategic plans.

Although counting from His Majesty's personal conquest, there have been many major changes around Beizhili, Liaoxi, Liaonan and other places, affected by the Liaozuo front war.

Industries such as smelting, textiles, and brewing in various places have poured in a large number of groups to participate in it, but if the country wants to collect taxes from it, it will take at least several years of precipitation.

After all, the reform of the tax law is a long process. The tax-sharing system His Majesty mentioned in the past involves too many levels. Even if you want to try it out gradually, it will take time. "

Emperor Chongzhen led the elite of the Ming Dynasty and launched corresponding offensives in the front of the Liao Dynasty. In fact, it also had a lot of influence on the rear of the Ming Dynasty.

There are positive ones.

There are negative ones.

On the road of reform and reform, it is destined to be restless. After all, redistribution of interests and making a larger cake will touch the interests of many groups, which will also lead to intensification of conflicts.

The rebellions in the Jiangnan provinces were due to the influence of the Reform Movement, some groups secretly instigated criticism, and only then did they appear in Nanzhili, Zhejiang, Fujian and other places.

"Gentlemen, now is not the time to talk about this."

Liu Hongxun, who was silent, stood up at this moment, stretched out his hand and said: "There is a rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River. Although Hong Chengchou and the others have made corresponding arrangements, the imperial court has to take action.

The most important point is that His Majesty must know about this matter.

What you are worried about is what you have to face in the future. What you need to do now is to submit the matter of the Jiangnan rebellion to Yuqian as quickly as possible.

You don't want to affect the Liaozuo battle, but have you ever thought about why there is a large-scale rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River at this time?
What is behind this?
According to Bensuke, some people want to use this to undermine the new law.

Look at the current court, what kind of chaos is it?
This is because His Majesty took away a group of ministers in the court. If he hadn't taken away, do you think the cabinet can stabilize the court situation? "

Xu Guangqi, Bi Ziyan, Huang Liji and others, you look at me, I look at you, showing different expressions.

Yes.

If there hadn't been this personal conquest by the emperor and a group of ministers taken away by the emperor, what kind of crisis would have been encountered in the current situation, not to mention the reforms in the northern provinces.

Just such a thing, if it is passed on to the capital, it will definitely set off a bigger wave, and the situation will only get out of control even more.

Xu Guangqi, Bi Ziyan and the others all hope that Daming Sheji can go in a good direction through a new reform. Although they say that they will encounter a lot of opposition, if they don't do this, what awaits Daming will be More crises and dangers.

"The matter is so decided."

Xu Guangqi stood up and looked at Bi Ziyan and the others, "At the Military Aircraft Office, the appointed time is approaching. If there is a rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River, it will be urgently delivered to the imperial front in the form of a secret report.

From now on, the cabinet will cancel the rest and do its best to stabilize the situation in the court. In response to the rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River, it is necessary to draw up a charter with the Military Aircraft Department.

At the same time, an official letter was urgently issued to Hong Chengchou, ordering him to suspend the pacification of the Japanese and make every effort to resolve the Jiangnan rebellion. These matters were urgently submitted to the imperial court in the form of a secret report.

While maintaining the stability of the court and the south of the Yangtze River, we have to wait for His Majesty's will. During this period, no matter what problems arise, we must stand up. "

"Here."

Bi Ziyan, Huang Liji, and Liu Hongxun all bowed in response.

The emergence of such a critical incident is a challenge to the cabinet. If Xu Guangqi and the others cannot stabilize the situation, it will have a great impact.
