Daming Jingtai: I am the eternal benevolent king
Chapter 88 Refugees are like tigers, monks and Taoists are like a hornet's nest, and the wicked
Chapter 88 Refugees are like tigers, monks and Taoists are like a hornet's nest, and the wicked need to be grinded by the wicked!The silver in the inner carrier warehouse is now missing!
Chang De entered the main hall of Yongshou Palace and looked at the Empress Dowager Sun with disheveled hair. When she raised her head and saw the scars on the corners of her mouth, she couldn't help exclaiming: "Mother, you, your face?"
Empress Dowager Sun wiped away her tears and covered the red and swollen corners of her mouth: "It's nothing, that useless person dare not kill Ai's family, nor dare to touch you, so live in peace."
This trace seems to be...
They have been in the palace for a long time...
Chang De shook his head quickly, not daring to think too much, tears could not stop streaming down: "He doesn't care about family affection at all!"
Empress Dowager Sun's eyes were sad, and she didn't know how long she would be tortured.
……
Silver Bureau.
Cai Kuan, the palm print eunuch, knelt on the ground, and all the staff knelt on their knees.
Jin Zhong is dressed in a flying fish suit, holding an embroidered spring knife in his hand, looking majestic and majestic.
Shu Liang wore a brocade robe and a sword at his waist.
Standing beside Zhu Qiyu with Jin Zhong on the left and right.
Dongchang, Jinyiwei, and Habayashi Qianwei led by Li Jin escorted them together.
Zhu Qiyu sat on the chair, and the criminals on Wang Xi's list, all the bankers, eunuchs and supervisors, etc. all knelt on the ground.
With a snap, Jin Zhong threw a cut piece of silver on the ground.
"Look, is this craftsmanship from the Banking Bureau?" Jin Zhong asked.
Cai Kuan read it and handed it to the ambassador Kong Zi.
Kong Zi was very embarrassed. He was recommended by Chen Xun to become an official, and he was also recommended by Chen Xun to serve as the ambassador of the Banking Bureau.
Now that Chen Xun is dead, although the emperor has not investigated Chen Dang, he is especially embarrassed as Chen Dang.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, it is from the Yinzuo Bureau." Kong Zi dared not hide it.
"Who did it?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
Kong Zi showed the silver to the craftsmen and circulated it to everyone, but no one got up to answer.
"Jin Zhong!" Zhu Qiyu called out.
Jin Zhong lifted up his robe, held the embroidered spring knife in his hand, strode down, drew the knife out of its sheath, and put it on Kong Zi's neck: "Tell me, is this money from the Yinzuo Bureau?"
The cold blade made Kong Zi tremble all over.
"Eunuch Jin, he is from the Bank Bureau, but... ah!" Kong didn't finish his sentence.
Jin Zhong sliced off his ear!
Kong Zi covered his bleeding ears and screamed.
"Don't bark!"
Jin Zhong yelled: "Do you know! This silver is used by the traitor Wang Xi to hide secrets. How can you hook up with Wang Xi as a bureaucrat? Tell me! This admiral spares your dog's life!"
Kong Ziqiang held back the severe pain, his face full of horror.
Wang Xi is wanted, he has already had his entire family executed.
How did you get involved with the Yinzuo Bureau?
"Eunuch Jin, my subordinates really don't know!"
Kong Zi screamed because Jin Zhong put the knife on his other ear. He cried and said, "This matter is not under the control of the lower officials, but under the control of the supervisor!"
"It doesn't matter what, what kind of bank ambassador are you? Ah!"
Jin Zhong put the knife across his neck and swiped it straight!
Kong Zi's throat was cut open, and blood gushed out.
The entire Banking Bureau was frightened and stupid, and the dignified Ambassador of the Banking Bureau died as soon as he said he would die.
Is Jin Yiwei actually so domineering?
The key point is that the emperor is just watching. Is the emperor going to use Yin as a bureaucracy, killing blood like a river?
Cai Kuan went limp and kowtowed to confess his crime.
Because, Jin Zhong looked at him.
"Eunuch Jin, this servant really doesn't know!"
Cai Kuan was so frightened that he walked over on his knees: "My lord, spare my life, my lord, spare my life!"
Jin Zhong kicked him: "If you want to live, find out the person who made this kind of silver!"
"Your servant obeys, my servant obeys." Cai Kuan was frightened, he was not from the emperor, he was from Xing'an.
After Xing'an's death, he dared not sleep every day.
Especially when he heard that the eunuchs and maids were all driven out of the palace, leaving only a few people to serve him, he was even more frightened.
This morning when he received the imperial decree and His Majesty arrived, he vaguely guessed that something was going to happen, and he won the lottery.
"Eunuch Jin, please give me a knife." Cai Kuan kowtowed.
"Call our guard." Jin Zhong beckoned, fetched a knife, and threw it on the ground.
"Slave, thank you Governor!"
Cai Kuan picked up the knife, got up, his eyes were bloodthirsty, whoever refuses to let our family live, our family will let you die first!
The ambassador is dead, and there is Cao Kun, the deputy envoy.
He put the knife on Cao Kun's neck. Cao Kun was only a small fifth-rank official and could only bite.
Cai Kuan didn't want to ruin the matter, so he pointed the knife at the man Cao Kunpan bit out.
Jin Zhong coughed.
Cai Kuan shuddered all over, the emperor wanted to clean up the banking bureau!
"How did you become a deputy envoy of the Banking Bureau?"
Cai Kuan put the knife on Cao Kun's neck again: "Say! Who did it!"
"I really don't know... ah!"
Cai Kuan wiped his neck directly.
Then the knife rested on Cao Huan's neck, who was in charge, and Cao Huan just hesitated, but was also wiped on his neck.
In the blink of an eye, three people died in the Banking Bureau!
Qianshu Lu Dian exclaimed: "Don't kill me, don't kill me, it's Liu Dazhuang's craft, it's Liu Dazhuang's craft!"
"Liu Dazhuang!"
Cai Kuan turned his head abruptly and looked at craftsman Liu Dazhuang.
Liu Dazhuang was so frightened that he feces and urine flowed out.
Hire everything.
He took Wang Xi's money and secretly made it for Wang Xi.
Jin Zhong patted Cai Kuan on the face: "Good job."
Cai Kuan shivered and knelt down to thank him.
Then, pointing at Liu Dazhuang, his eyes were fierce: "Drag him out!"
Pointing to Lu Dian again: "He is also there!"
Liu Dazhuang was dragged out by two Jin Yiwei.
"How did you know it was Liu Dazhuang's work? Did you participate?" Jin Zhong didn't interrogate Liu Dazhuang, but stared at Lu Dian instead.
Lu Dian shook his head: "Duke Wei, please forgive me, this officer only recognized Liu Dazhuang's craftsmanship, and absolutely did not participate in it!"
"Just recognize it?"
Jin Zhong walked towards Wang Rui who was writing, and picked him up: "Do you recognize him?"
"The lower officials are just writing, not in charge of craftsmen in the bank bureau, and really don't know anything!" Wang Rui was terrified.
"Our family is asking you, do you recognize me?" Jin Zhong stared at him.
Wang Rui shook his head.
Jin Zhong left him, grabbed another supervisor, and asked him if he recognized him.
He also said he didn't recognize it.
Jin Zhong came back and put the knife on Lu Dian's neck: "Everyone doesn't recognize it, why do you recognize it? Lu Qianshu, don't lie to our family! Our family is small-minded, if we are deceived, we will be cruel Revenge!"
Lu Dian glanced at the emperor in horror, the emperor sat quietly, obviously supporting Jin Zhong.
He vaguely guessed what the emperor was looking for!
"The lower official just recognizes it, and has never participated in it...ah!" Lu Dian let out a scream.
One of his ears was chopped off by Jin Zhong.
"Do you know that Wang Xi conspired to rebel, and he hid the list of party members in this silver ingot!"
"Liu Dazhuang's private possession of the list shows that he also participated in the rebellion. You, Lu Qianshu, also recognize Liu Dazhuang's craftsmanship. What a coincidence, even opera singers dare not sing such a coincidence!"
"What? Do you think our brains are broken?"
Jin Zhong raised his knife and wanted to chop it again: "Come here, arrest Lu Dian's family!"
"No, no..." Lu Dian was terrified.
But the Xiuchun saber slashed down and slashed hard on his shoulder, blood spattered, Lu Dian rolled over and screamed, "I've recruited you! Give me a good time!"
He admitted that he was the one who introduced Liu Dazhuang to Wang Xi.
"Who else?" Jin Zhong asked.
Lu Dian glanced at the other people in the Yinzuo Bureau. Everyone in the Yinzuo Bureau was terrified, worried that Lu Dian would bite.
Jin Zhong pressed the blade on the back of his neck, and he cried and pointed out several people.
"Wei Du, the lower officials don't know that Wang Xi is rebelling, they just took over private work, beg Wei Du, please spare the lower official's family!" Lu Dian cried for forgiveness.
Just take over the private job and fool the ghost!
Isn't Wang Xi's use of silver to hide secrets implying that Zhang Fu stole the silver in the inner carrier?
The silver in the inner carrier warehouse is cast and engraved, so I dare not circulate it blatantly.
It must go through the hands of silversmiths to recast silver.
Moreover, Wang Xi's henchmen have also been recruited, and they have indeed stolen money from the inner carrier.
But where exactly it went, no one knows.
Therefore, it is necessary to pry the craftsman's mouth open.
What if there is an unexpected harvest.
But Jin Zhong knelt down, pressed his head to look at the chopped ear, and said with a smile, "Just one ear is missing, so I won't delay my life."
"Lu Dian, there is something our family would like to ask you to help with. It is done. Not only will your family be spared, but you will also be spared! How about it?"
Lu Dian survived the desperate situation and nodded desperately.
"Don't be afraid, our family is not a man-eating tiger, relax, the emperor is watching, the emperor is the most benevolent majesty in the world."
"Just now our family's tactics were a little bit harsh, please bear with me."
"Our family is also a servant girl. Our family dare not neglect the things that the emperor told us. Are you right?"
Jin Zhong observed Lu Dian. In fact, he was dissatisfied that Cai Kuan had killed everyone. Wang Xi was already dead and the line was broken, but he just dug out some henchmen.
The real purpose is the money in the inner carrier warehouse!
The emperor is short of money, so short that he is going crazy. In the whole palace, every decent thing has been pawned. The emperor is suffering.
"I don't dare to blame Weidu, I dare not!" Lu Dian nodded repeatedly.
Jin Zhong was laughing: "Tell Ben Du, did the Banking Bureau come in with some shady money recently?"
"Or, there are a large number of craftsmen from the Banking Bureau who went out to pick up private jobs?"
"Our family told you directly that the money was lost in the inner transport warehouse. Whoever touches it will lose his head; if he knows and doesn't report it, the nine clans will be wiped out!"
Lu Dian's expression changed.
Jin Zhong knew it and asked the right person.
"Speak out, how about our family pleading with the emperor to let you be the ambassador of the Banking Bureau?" Jin Zhong comforted him.
A glimmer of hope burst out of Lu Dian's despair.
But at this moment, Wang Rui, who was writing just now, suddenly launched a charge: "I'll kill you dog eunuch!"
puff!
Jin Zhong slashed his chest with his backhand, and blood spattered Lu Dian's face.
"The man is not dead yet, arrest him, don't take advantage of him, dare to assassinate the governor? Throw him into the imperial prison and interrogate slowly!"
With a cruel smile on Jin Zhong's face, he squatted down again and patted Lu Dian on the shoulder: "Speak!"
Lu Dian couldn't hold back anymore, his tears flowed wildly, he said a few names, some people wanted to run away, there is a huge network here, how can they run away?
Jin Zhong was stunned, was he found so easily?
Is this the benefit of the emperor killing Chen Xun and controlling the court?
There is no way to hide from any ghosts and monsters.
According to the account of the craftsman, the money did not go into the silver work bureau, but a supervisor named Liu Yan contacted the craftsmen of the silver work bureau, and took them to the mountains to refine the silver every night.
Liu Yan explained that the place where the silver was hidden was a barren hill in the suburbs.
"Jin Zhong, take someone to copy it immediately! Be quick!" Zhu Qiyu said.
"Slaves obey the order!" Jin Zhong knelt down to receive the order, and led Lu Dian, Liu Yan and others to find the barren mountain.
Zhu Qiyu stood up slowly, looking at the many craftsmen of the Bank who were kneeling on the ground.
"You were originally my most loyal slaves."
"But I don't want to become a den of thieves!"
"Find out the criminals, Zhu Clan!"
"Above the supervisor, regardless of whether they know it or not, they will all be executed!"
Zhu Qiyu's gaze was sharp like a knife: "Everyone in the Bank is waiting, if you don't report what you know, you will be fined for three years!"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me! Your Majesty, I didn't participate in it, and I didn't know about it!" A supervisor cried out.
"I don't know about this, I don't know about that, what kind of supervisor are you doing?"
"Supervisor, supervisor, if I give you power, you will have responsibility!"
"When you enjoy power, you must take responsibility!"
Zhu Qiyu's eyes became sharper: "Those who call you wronged, kill the clan!"
"From now on, the twelve supervisors, the four divisions and the eight bureaus will be organized in pairs according to the Qianqing palace regulations, and the method of sitting together will be practiced! One person commits a crime, and two people will be punished! No pleading!"
This is Zhu Qiyu's real purpose!
And the silver game is to kill chickens to scare monkeys!
The eunuch Ruan Rang trembled, the emperor asked him to listen to the sound, he was beating him, obediently surrendered to the emperor, if he hesitated again, the next one to be cleaned would be the imperial horse supervisor!
"Slaves wait to obey the order!" Ruan Rang prostrated himself on the ground, extremely respectful.
"My lord, my lord, this servant helped you find out Lu Dian, and the governor of Wei promised this servant to spare this servant!" Cai Kuan crawled over, crying and begging for mercy.
"Heh, Cai Kuan, you are the admiral and eunuch, and my internal transport warehouse was stolen. You knew that there was a sum of money in the barren hills outside the city, but you didn't report it. How dare you beg me for mercy?"
Zhu Qiyu sneered: "Jin Zhong promises you, you can go to Jin Zhong."
He moves his fingers.
Before Cai Kuan could speak, the Dongchang Fanzi beheaded directly.
What is the use of this kind of rubbish that is eaten inside and out?
"Those who are involved with Wang Xi, those who are involved too much, will be punished by the clan! Those who are lightly involved, the whole family will be demoted to artisan households, and they will be filled in all bureaus."
Zhu Qiyu raised his hands high and did not kill too much.
Immediately, he looked at Ruan Rang.
"My lord, this servant is loyal to you and has no second thoughts!" Ruan Rang kowtowed like garlic.
There are very few people who give charcoal in the snow, and the icing on the cake abounds.
When I was in urgent need of people before, no one helped me; now that I have power in my hands, everyone flocks to them like a dog, which is really ridiculous.
"Get up, follow me to see the horse raising army." Zhu Qiyu wanted to hold the last strength in Beijing in his palm.
The Yumajian is in the northeast corner, and the Yinzuoju is in the southwest corner, which is exactly symmetrical.
On the way, Zhu Qiyu asked Li Jin if he would like to take over the horse army.
"Your Majesty, I am worried about your safety!" Of course Li Jin wanted to admiral Ma Jun.
"It's okay, there is no danger in the palace."
Chen Xun is dead, and the imperial power is in his hands, who would foolishly follow the rebellion?
Don't treat people as fools.
Wouldn't it be nice to sacrifice your life for the emperor?
If you have to put your head on your waistband to rebel, what are you trying to do?
Today is different from the past, the emperor has seized the imperial power, and he can award a lot of rewards. When the money in the inner carrier is recovered, the emperor's waist will be even harder.
The possibility of winning the door again is gone.
"You recommend two people from Habayashi Qianwei to me, and they will be in charge of Yubayashi Qianwei, so I can rest easy." Zhu Qiyu is very confident.
"The minister obeys the order!"
Li Jin smiled, this is the benefit of relying on the emperor.
The horse raising army, under its jurisdiction are the Warriors Battalion and the Four Guards Battalion, all of whom are elite soldiers in the world.
Of course, it is not known whether the horse raising army is now elite.
"Okay, I order you to command the horse-raising army, under the jurisdiction of the Warriors' Battalion and the Four Guards Battalion, you select the available talents in the battalion, and send those who are not available to the guards. After this battle is over, you can choose from the Tianxia Guards Strong and strong, he will be raised in the horse army."
Taizu set up a horse army to guard against rape and humiliation. It was the last line of defense in the palace, and the eunuchs should hold the military power.
But Zhu Qiyu doesn't plan to raise Ma Jun in Beijing.
But to pull to the battlefield to fight.
This horse raising army will become his first direct line army.
Therefore, the eunuch cannot be allowed to fully control the military power, nor can the military power be completely handed over to Li Jin.
"I will ask Zhao Shun to cooperate with you again. Zhao Shun is an honest man and will not interfere in any of your decisions."
Zhu Qiyu gave Li Jin a reassurance: "Zhao Shun is the admiral and eunuch, you will be the commander of the capital for now, and when the time is right, I will appoint you as the commander-in-chief."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En!" Li Jin understood that all armies had eunuchs as supervisors. He knew that Zhao Shun was indeed an honest man. The emperor didn't send the old man out to take care of him.
"I will give you the actual amount of 1 people."
Zhu Qiyu glanced at him, and said in a cold tone: "The ones at the border gate and the Beijing camp should not be taken to the horse raising army, you know?"
"I know!" Li Jin trembled all over, the root cause of Xuanzhen's defeat, I'm afraid the emperor already knew it.
"You don't have to worry about the military salary. The household department doesn't go out, and the internal money goes out. I will send someone to the bottom to ask. Every soldier has to receive a real salary, you know?" Zhu Qiyu's voice was cold.
Daming's military pay is really outrageously low, but it's not bad if the soldiers on the front line can get one-tenth of it, so they don't work hard in training or fighting.
It's so bad, hasn't it beaten the northern captives for more than 200 years!
Who said Daming has no sons?
"I dare not touch a cent of the military salary!" Li Jin kowtowed.
"In the horse raising army, whoever touches it will be killed! This is the power I gave you!" Zhu Qiyu snorted coldly.
"The minister obeys the order!"
Zhu Qiyu's tone softened: "I have prepared your share for you, and I have also given out the shares for officers at all levels, is that okay?"
Li Jin knelt on the ground in fright, not even daring to speak.
"You don't have to, but the people below have to. I will make a statement in the future, and you can just get paid according to the above."
It is impossible for Zhu Qiyu to increase the military salary, he does not have so much money.
Moreover, the horse raising army is going to be adjusted, so don't all the guards in the world follow suit?Force people to rebel?
If you want to turn it up, you have to turn it up.
Therefore, directly raising the military salary is an act of courting death.
It can only be rewarded in the form of a gift.
You can't reward too much, because raising horses is useless, just because the emperor likes to give more rewards?Frontier customs and Beijing camp uniforms?
That's not a reward, but a factor of turmoil.
This is Zhu Qiyu beating Li Jin.
"Li Jin, I'll give you the right to raise the horse army, and I'll give you expediency, but I want to see the result!" Zhu Qiyu's eyes sharpened.
"Your Majesty will see a strong army in three months!" Li Jin was also furious.
"Okay! The elite is not about the number of people, but the number of people is also the elite! I will give you the full power to raise the horse army!"
Zhu Qiyu believed in Li Jin, because after all, the horse raising army had a solid foundation, so if we cleared out a batch of them and practiced for three months, they would always achieve some results.
"Li Jin, this horse-raising army is going to gallop across Mobei in the future. You have to train me well." Zhu Qiyu patted him on the shoulder and made him retreat.
He also ordered Zhao Shun to come over and explain a few words.
"I went to raise the horse army. You are my eyes. I will always report what you see to me. You are not allowed to add personal emotions, you know?"
Zhao Shun showed reluctance on his face: "The maidservant takes the order."
"Don't stretch out your hands indiscriminately. This kind of horse breeding army is not popular. Don't dirty my army, understand?" Zhu Qiyu beat him.
"Your servant knows! The emperor asked me to take it, so my servant dares to take it." Zhao Shun prostrated himself on the ground.
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Not only can you not reach out, but if you reach out, you will chop off his claws! Remember, the horse army belongs to me, and any tentacles that come in will be chopped off by me!"
"Slaves understand!" Zhao Shun had been in the palace for so many years, so he didn't understand anything, but he was honest in front of the emperor.
"Go."
Zhu Qiyu told the imperial chariot to stop: "I won't go to the Yumajian, let's pass the imperial decree. I will go to the Yumajian again in three months."
Ruan Rang was taken aback for a moment, but he almost cried when he heard the imperial decree.
The emperor emptied his power as the eunuch in charge of horses and seals.
However, it was much better than the end of the silver game.
"Ruan Rang, after three months, I will see the results." Zhu Qiyu warned him that if you dare to make a mistake, your head will be killed in three months.
"Slaves would like to obey the imperial edict!"
Ruan Rang wanted to cry, but the emperor could still listen to what the emperor said, and if he could produce results within three months, wouldn't he be favored by the emperor.
"Go back to the palace."
Zhu Qiyu temporarily changed his decision because Huai En came to report that Fang Ying and Shi Pu had entered Beijing and were on their way to the palace.
After a stick of incense, Zhu Qiyu was eating.
Fang Ying and Shi Pu entered the Palace of Qinzheng in a hurry.
"You two lovers, I look forward to the stars and the moon, and I finally bring you back to Beijing!" Zhu Qiyu looked excited.
Fang Ying was single-handedly promoted by him. He succeeded his father as a commander, and was later named Jue Nan He Bo for his meritorious service. It can be said that Fang Ying is his direct descendant.
It's just that Fang Ying doesn't stand in line.
Now that the situation is clear, there is no need to worry that Fang Ying will seek refuge with the Supreme Emperor.
Shi Pu is interesting, he bribed Jin Ying in order to get promoted, and he should be executed according to the law, and he was saved by Zhu Qiyu.
He didn't participate in party struggles either, but he made good friends with Li Xian.
"Your Majesty, do you use this for dinner?" Shi Pu looked at the porridge and pickles on the table in surprise.
"Hey, old Shangshu, the court is in trouble. I can only take the lead and eat this. I hope that my subjects can also follow Daming to tide over the difficulties like me." Zhu Qiyu pretended.
"It's easy to teach Shi Shangshu to know that the emperor has been eating porridge and pickles for half a month, and even sent out the servants in the palace." Feng Xiao was beside him miserably.
Shi Pu was moved to tears: "There is such a virtuous king in the world, why should Ming be unhappy!"
"Old Shangshu, Nan He Bo, tell me about Huguang first." Zhu Qiyu asked for a seat, and he ate up the porridge that he hadn't finished, and then asked to remove it.
"Let Nan and Bo talk about it."
Fang Ying started from entering Yuanzhou and said that more than 160 villages including Guiban were broken.
He and Shangshu Shi Pu moved to Tianzhu, led Li Zhen, Chen You and others to attack Tiantang and other strongholds, and defeated the rebels.
A total of 270 villages were conquered, and one hundred and two people below the fake Houbo were captured alive.
"When I left, according to the imperial decree, I handed over the military power to Li Zhen and Chen You, the governors. Li Zhen was the commander-in-chief, and Chen You was the deputy commander-in-chief."
Fang Yingdao: "I thought that Huguang seedlings are in chaos, but the land of Huguang is completely rotten, and refugees are everywhere, so there is no way to recuperate!"
Putting down the Miao chaos is a military means, but to restore peace in the vast land of the lake, political means are needed.
"The veteran thinks that Huguang should focus on care. It is best for the court to spend a large amount of money and grain, reform the land and resettle the refugees on the spot, and then exempt them from taxes for a few years, and Huguang can be settled." Shi Pu Seriously.
"How much does the old Shangshu think it will cost?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"I'm afraid it will take millions of taels." Shi Pu smiled wryly.
"So much?" Zhu Qiyu was also surprised.
"Your Majesty does not know."
Fang Ying answered: "The chaos in Huguang is not limited to the people of Huguang, but the refugees from all over the world are going to Huguang."
"According to the local official's report, there are more than one million refugees in Huguang, but according to my estimate, the number is more than one million."
"There are several villages. At first, I thought they were Miao people, but I saw that the clothes were the same as those of the Han family. After inquiring, I found out that they were all fleeing households and had lived in the villages for many years."
"Such villages abound, and the accent is not from Huguang, and there are people everywhere."
Zhu Qiyu's eyes sharpened, Huguang officials should be killed!
Sooner or later, clear Huguang officialdom!
"The old Shangshu said one million taels, but I think it might not be enough."
"If the court really gives money to Huguang, it will resettle the refugees."
"I'm afraid it will attract refugees from all over the world to go to Huguang. Now the world..."
Fang Ying suddenly realized something and didn't dare to continue.
"Nan Hebo, you don't have to be afraid to talk to me."
"I know that this prosperous Ming Dynasty is nothing more than whitewashing the peace."
"There are refugees everywhere outside the capital, let alone places?" Zhu Qiyu said truthfully.
Fang Ying was a little surprised, the emperor seemed to be a little different.
But Shi Pu knew something. Li Xian often wrote to him, so he knew about the changes in the court.
It turns out that the emperor has been pretending to be stupid for the past eight years.
Now in charge of Tianxiajian, I don't know if he will become Jianwen or Taizong?
Fang Ying gritted her teeth and said: "When I entered the capital, there were refugees everywhere in the suburbs of Beijing. I was worried that if this continues, there might be riots from refugees!"
He did not dare to elaborate, fearing that the emperor would be furious.
"Rebellion shouldn't happen. Although there are many refugees, I have issued an order to help temples and Taoist temples outside the city. They can always have a bite of food. If they are not full, they will not die of hunger." Zhu Qiyu chuckled.
But Fang Ying dared not speak.
The smile on Zhu Qiyu's face was stiff: "Nan Hebo, did I say something wrong?"
"Your Majesty is right!" Fang Ying was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and remained silent.
"What did you see? Fang Ying, tell me!" Zhu Qiyu's voice became stern.
Fang Ying knew that she had said the wrong thing. With the scene outside the city, no one in the court said a word, so no one dared to lift the lid.
I am also stupid. I am obviously not involved in party disputes and want to protect my life wisely. How can I be so happy, say that I am bald, and say everything!
How does it end here?
"Your Majesty, the most important thing now is Xuanfu, Shandong." Shi Pu rescued Fang Ying.
Zhu Qiyu restrained his murderous intent: "What the old Shangshu said is true, but I don't want to be blind, deaf, or fool! Fang Ying, say it!"
"I ask Your Majesty to appease your anger first!"
Fang Ying knew it, so it was impossible not to say it: "Outside the city, there are tens of thousands of refugees."
"Selling children and selling daughters happens every day."
"I saw with my own eyes that a man led two children, kneeling in front of my horse, begging me to buy them."
"That man's belly is swollen. He must have eaten Guanyin soil. I'm afraid he won't survive."
"There are also some women who can do anything as long as they are given a bite..."
Selling children?
Women out of morals?
This is a sign of troubled times!
Zhu Qiyu felt chills down his spine, if someone with ambition provoked him, it would be another continuous rebellion.
At that time, the world will be full of wars, what if there is another emperor Taizu!
"What about the relief? The palace also contributed money. My Huangzhuang and Huangdian all contributed money. I have approved the note and approved it every day. I have paid for it." Zhu Qiyu still had a glimmer of hope.
"Back to Your Majesty, I have walked more than ten miles, but I didn't see a soup kitchen!"
"what?"
Zhu Qiyu stood up abruptly, picked up Fang Ying, and said with a ferocious face, "You didn't see any of them?"
"Impossible, I approve the note every day!"
"There are also temples and Taoist temples. I have issued a decree. Every temple must set up a porridge shed outside the city to provide relief to the refugees. Why not?"
He let go of Fang Ying, it was not Fang Ying's fault.
Muttering to himself: "Is it so difficult to give the common people a way to survive?"
"You are all enjoying the rich clothes and fine food, beautiful wives and beautiful concubines, you have everything!"
"I've given you what you want, why are you so greedy? Why don't you give common people a way out?"
"Forcing them to rebel?"
"Forcing them to fight into the city?"
"Forcing the world to produce another great ancestor?"
"Forcing Daming to overthrow?"
Zhu Qiyu couldn't control his emotions.
He always thought that the current Daming was at most a bit rotten, but he never thought that it was rotten!Rotten to the bone!
When did it start to rot?
Renzong?Xuanzong?Or is it too emperor?
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Shi Pu called several times.
"Zhen, I always thought that I was qualified as an emperor, but I didn't think so. It's a joke!"
Zhu Qiyu's eyes were as sharp as a knife: "Pass the decree! Summon all the eunuchs and stewards of Huangzhuang and Huangdian in Beijing, and all the people should wait for them to listen to the decree at the Meridian Gate!"
Only blood can extinguish Zhu Qiyu's anger.
"My lord!" Feng Xiao knelt on the ground in horror.
He is not worried about killing some eunuchs and managing affairs, he is worried that the emperor will do something to temples and Taoist temples, because they are hornet's nests and cannot be touched.
"go with!"
Zhu Qiyu exploded.
But both Fang Ying and Shi Pu knelt down and begged the emperor to appease his anger.
"I will deal with my own slaves! Can't I?"
Zhu Qiyu is not crazy yet. Temples and Taoist temples are hornet's nests, and they cannot be poked. Are Huangzhuang and Huangdian also hornet's nests?
"Your Majesty!" Fang Ying was extremely regretful. I am afraid that if his words spread today, he would be scolded to death by monks and Taoists, and he might even die suddenly.
"It's okay, your words will not be spread, don't worry."
Zhu Qiyu took a few breaths and calmed down: "Let Lao Shangshu and Nan Hebo watch the joke, I really can't hold back anymore, I made a slip of the tongue."
"Your Majesty loves the people, and I feel the same way!" Shi Pu flattered him.
This is to show favor to the emperor.
"Fang Ying, are there no porridge sheds in temples or Taoist temples?" Zhu Qiyu asked again.
Fang Ying wanted to beat herself to death, but she still said: "Report to Your Majesty, there is, but there is no porridge in the porridge shed. You can only eat porridge if you sell your children to temples or Taoist temples."
"Hehe!" Zhu Qiyu was amused, and smiled miserably.
This is a trafficker!
Worse than human traffickers!
What exactly do you believe in?Devil?hehe!
Monk Taoism is a hornet's nest, I can't afford it!
But the wicked need to be grinded by the wicked.
Just wait and see!
I am the master of the world!
"Nan and Bo feel at ease, every word you say in the Palace of Qinzheng will not get out!" Zhu Qiyu has this confidence.
Shi Pu was slightly surprised, he was the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and he knew about the embarrassment of the emperor for the past eight years.
But I didn't expect that the emperor's power had swelled to such a degree after menstruation.
"Forget it, don't talk about it."
Zhu Qiyu smiled: "Fang Ying, I originally planned to let you enter the Beijing camp, but now the Beijing camp is going to fight, and there are no soldiers in the camp."
"But I plan to organize a regiment battalion. Originally there are ten regiment battalions. I plan to add two more, twelve regiment battalions."
"When Yu Shaofu and Shi Heng reformed the Beijing camp before, the reform was not thorough. When the Beijing camp returns to Beijing, I plan to disrupt it again and reform thoroughly."
Speaking of this, Zhu Qiyu looked at Shi Pu: "Old Shangshu also knows that Xuanzhen was defeated in the first battle and suffered heavy losses. Even if it wins in the future, it is hard to say how many people can return to Beijing."
The three people in Qinzheng Hall sighed.
Shi Pu and Fang Ying had just returned to Beijing, so they didn't dare to talk casually, they only listened to what the emperor said.
"So train two more battalions, with a total of 5000 people. I will hand over both regiments and battalions to you! You will be the commander-in-chief! You will be stamped with the gold seal of the Military Aircraft Department!"
Zhu Qiyu is going to wantonly gather military power, and no one can stop him!
"The soldiers are no longer selected from the guards. Firstly, there is no time, and secondly, when the Beijing camp returns to the capital, they need to be replenished with soldiers from the guards."
"I plan to recruit from the middle of Beijing."
Zhu Qiyu hesitated again: "If possible, recruit some from the refugees, and I can give them some land as appropriate."
This……
Fang Ying's expression changed instantly, this is another hornet's nest!
The Gyeonggi refugees are the source of tenants for the tyrants in the capital, and they are also the source of handymen for monks and Taoists.
If the regiment camp recruits from the refugees again, I'm afraid it will be ominous!
"Scared?"
Zhu Qiyu sneered: "I sent eunuchs to recruit, and you are training soldiers."
Fang Ying was put on the fire and roasted!
The emperor is forcing him to be a lone minister, and he is worried about letting him control the power of the capital, so he is forced to break up with the powerful people in the capital.
This hand of the emperor's mind is brilliant!
"I'm not afraid, I'm willing to recruit among the refugees!" Fang Ying gritted her teeth.
"Okay, I will give you the Son of Heaven Sword. Those who block it, don't ask who it is, kill it directly! Anyone who competes with you for soldiers, kill it!"
The corners of Zhu Qiyu's mouth curled up: "Fang Ying, is your second son ten years old this year? I remember correctly, I think your son Fang Han's age is about the same as Gu'an's age, why don't I make a marriage with you, how about it?"
Fang Ying was taken aback, her son, Princess Shang, this is the Holy Family Zhengnong!
Shi Pu was also secretly shocked, the emperor only had two daughters, the youngest daughter had a disease, the eldest princess was loved by the emperor, but she was going to marry Fang Ying's second son, it can be seen that the emperor had to use Fang Ying extremely, so he was willing to spend so much money!
That is to say, the emperor not only wanted Fang Ying to control the two battalions, but more...
Use him to replace Yu Qian?
"Your Majesty, how can I win the princess?" Fang Ying was a little scared.
Once he married the emperor, he had no choice but to run to the dark.
This is contrary to his code of not forming a party and being wise and safe.
Fang Ying is not afraid of going to the battlefield, but in court, he is easily played to death.
"This matter is settled, there is no need to discuss it."
Zhu Qiyu made the final decision.
The reason why he chose Fang Ying was that on the one hand, Fang Ying was capable of fighting, and on the other hand, Fang Ying had two good subordinates, Li Zhen and Chen You, who were both generals, and he needed to rely on them.
"I obey the order!" Fang Ying kowtowed to accept the order.
"I love Gu'an very much, Fang Qing can rest assured."
Zhu Qiyu told him that although Princess Gu'an's mother was the abolished Wang family, it could not offset the emperor's love for her daughter.
"Fang Han's ability to honor the princess is a blessing he has cultivated in several lifetimes!" Fang Ying's reluctance must be suppressed.
"Let Fang Yi enter the palace to accompany you tomorrow."
Zhu Qiyu had to take out an insurance policy. Fang Ying's eldest son, Fang Yi, entered the palace as a hostage.
"The minister obeys the order!"
But at this moment, a Datong urgent report came in from outside the palace.
"Wait a minute, two lovers, let's watch together."
Zhu Qiyu opened the memorial, glanced at it, and frowned immediately: "Old Madam Fu is really good at predicting things, the [-] extra enemy troops in Xuanzhen really came from the northwest!"
Guo Deng, the commander-in-chief of Datong, sent a report that on the 22nd of the first lunar month, some Fanmin were looted.
At the beginning, many guards in Datong Town didn't care, but after being robbed, all the people in Kansai came to Datong for help, but Guo Deng refused on the grounds that Xuanzhen was in an emergency.
Later, some people were robbed and ran to Datong to plunder, but were repelled by Datong town guards.
Guo Dengcai sent people to investigate, and learned that the Kansai tribes had been robbed by the Wala people.
This group of Oirat soldiers descended from the sky again, descended on the Xuanfu, and defeated Yang Xin's generals.
"Old Shangshu, you also know about military affairs."
After the two had finished watching, Zhu Qiyu asked Shi Pu: "Will I take the opportunity to take back the land of Hetao after I repel Oirat?"
Shi Pu had already guessed the emperor's mind, the emperor wanted to be Taizong!
"Your Majesty, the Hetao is barren. It is easy for our Ming army to take back the Hetao, but it is difficult to manage it!" Shi Pu smiled wryly.
After all, there is no money!
If you want to collect the loop, you have to throw money into it!
Even, as long as you own the river loop, you have to keep throwing money into it, which is a bottomless pit.
But the strategic value of Hetao is self-evident, and it is also the territory of the Han family. If it is not taken back, there is really no way to explain it.
"Old Shangshu, how much money do you estimate will be needed?" Zhu Qiyu asked again.
Seeing that the emperor was determined to accept Hehuang, Shi Pu could only estimate a figure: "Five or six million taels of silver should be enough, and the old officials dare not say that they are dead, but this money has to be invested every year."
Zhu Qiyu clicked his tongue, how much money does Daming only collect in a year.
These 10 taels, those 10 taels, how can they be divided!
"Moreover, the food problem is the most difficult to solve. The food grown in Hetao is difficult to be self-sufficient and needs to be transported from the south. Once there is a catastrophe in the south, there will be endless rebellions in Hetao. All the money invested in governance before will be wiped out." The water is floating." Shi Pu explained.
To solve the Hetao problem, the first difficulty is money and food.
"I understand." Zhu Qiyu sighed.
This cannot be solved with the availability of corn. The yield per mu of corn in this era may not be high.
But if corn can be grown in the Hetao area, the food problem should be alleviated, right?
Zhu Qiyu was not sure, so let's go and see.
"Your Majesty, I have a question for Your Majesty." Shi Pu endured for a long time before asking.
"You say."
"Your Majesty will practice regiment camp again, where will the salary come from?" Shi Pu was puzzled.
"Let's get the money out."
Zhu Qiyu understood that Shi Pu was asking whether he should be guarded by civil officials.
"Originally, I planned to let Li Bing and Fang Ying cooperate, but Xuanzhen couldn't do without Li Bing, and I sent Nian Fu over. They are all soldiers. I really have no one in my mind. May I ask the old Shangshu Recommend a civil servant who understands military matters to assist Fang Ying?"
Zhu Qiyu didn't tear himself apart with the civil servants, so naturally he couldn't change the rules.
When Shi Pu heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief: "The old minister has someone to choose, Kou Shen."
Zhu Qiyu's eyes lit up.
He was worried about how to arrange Kou Shen, Kou Shen's qualifications are too high, so Wang Fu might not be able to deal with him if he was put into the General Administration Department.
Asking Kou Shen to help Fang Ying take charge of the regiment camp will not only reassure Wenchen's heart, but also Zhu Qiyu's.
Why not.

(End of this chapter)
Chang De entered the main hall of Yongshou Palace and looked at the Empress Dowager Sun with disheveled hair. When she raised her head and saw the scars on the corners of her mouth, she couldn't help exclaiming: "Mother, you, your face?"
Empress Dowager Sun wiped away her tears and covered the red and swollen corners of her mouth: "It's nothing, that useless person dare not kill Ai's family, nor dare to touch you, so live in peace."
This trace seems to be...
They have been in the palace for a long time...
Chang De shook his head quickly, not daring to think too much, tears could not stop streaming down: "He doesn't care about family affection at all!"
Empress Dowager Sun's eyes were sad, and she didn't know how long she would be tortured.
……
Silver Bureau.
Cai Kuan, the palm print eunuch, knelt on the ground, and all the staff knelt on their knees.
Jin Zhong is dressed in a flying fish suit, holding an embroidered spring knife in his hand, looking majestic and majestic.
Shu Liang wore a brocade robe and a sword at his waist.
Standing beside Zhu Qiyu with Jin Zhong on the left and right.
Dongchang, Jinyiwei, and Habayashi Qianwei led by Li Jin escorted them together.
Zhu Qiyu sat on the chair, and the criminals on Wang Xi's list, all the bankers, eunuchs and supervisors, etc. all knelt on the ground.
With a snap, Jin Zhong threw a cut piece of silver on the ground.
"Look, is this craftsmanship from the Banking Bureau?" Jin Zhong asked.
Cai Kuan read it and handed it to the ambassador Kong Zi.
Kong Zi was very embarrassed. He was recommended by Chen Xun to become an official, and he was also recommended by Chen Xun to serve as the ambassador of the Banking Bureau.
Now that Chen Xun is dead, although the emperor has not investigated Chen Dang, he is especially embarrassed as Chen Dang.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, it is from the Yinzuo Bureau." Kong Zi dared not hide it.
"Who did it?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
Kong Zi showed the silver to the craftsmen and circulated it to everyone, but no one got up to answer.
"Jin Zhong!" Zhu Qiyu called out.
Jin Zhong lifted up his robe, held the embroidered spring knife in his hand, strode down, drew the knife out of its sheath, and put it on Kong Zi's neck: "Tell me, is this money from the Yinzuo Bureau?"
The cold blade made Kong Zi tremble all over.
"Eunuch Jin, he is from the Bank Bureau, but... ah!" Kong didn't finish his sentence.
Jin Zhong sliced off his ear!
Kong Zi covered his bleeding ears and screamed.
"Don't bark!"
Jin Zhong yelled: "Do you know! This silver is used by the traitor Wang Xi to hide secrets. How can you hook up with Wang Xi as a bureaucrat? Tell me! This admiral spares your dog's life!"
Kong Ziqiang held back the severe pain, his face full of horror.
Wang Xi is wanted, he has already had his entire family executed.
How did you get involved with the Yinzuo Bureau?
"Eunuch Jin, my subordinates really don't know!"
Kong Zi screamed because Jin Zhong put the knife on his other ear. He cried and said, "This matter is not under the control of the lower officials, but under the control of the supervisor!"
"It doesn't matter what, what kind of bank ambassador are you? Ah!"
Jin Zhong put the knife across his neck and swiped it straight!
Kong Zi's throat was cut open, and blood gushed out.
The entire Banking Bureau was frightened and stupid, and the dignified Ambassador of the Banking Bureau died as soon as he said he would die.
Is Jin Yiwei actually so domineering?
The key point is that the emperor is just watching. Is the emperor going to use Yin as a bureaucracy, killing blood like a river?
Cai Kuan went limp and kowtowed to confess his crime.
Because, Jin Zhong looked at him.
"Eunuch Jin, this servant really doesn't know!"
Cai Kuan was so frightened that he walked over on his knees: "My lord, spare my life, my lord, spare my life!"
Jin Zhong kicked him: "If you want to live, find out the person who made this kind of silver!"
"Your servant obeys, my servant obeys." Cai Kuan was frightened, he was not from the emperor, he was from Xing'an.
After Xing'an's death, he dared not sleep every day.
Especially when he heard that the eunuchs and maids were all driven out of the palace, leaving only a few people to serve him, he was even more frightened.
This morning when he received the imperial decree and His Majesty arrived, he vaguely guessed that something was going to happen, and he won the lottery.
"Eunuch Jin, please give me a knife." Cai Kuan kowtowed.
"Call our guard." Jin Zhong beckoned, fetched a knife, and threw it on the ground.
"Slave, thank you Governor!"
Cai Kuan picked up the knife, got up, his eyes were bloodthirsty, whoever refuses to let our family live, our family will let you die first!
The ambassador is dead, and there is Cao Kun, the deputy envoy.
He put the knife on Cao Kun's neck. Cao Kun was only a small fifth-rank official and could only bite.
Cai Kuan didn't want to ruin the matter, so he pointed the knife at the man Cao Kunpan bit out.
Jin Zhong coughed.
Cai Kuan shuddered all over, the emperor wanted to clean up the banking bureau!
"How did you become a deputy envoy of the Banking Bureau?"
Cai Kuan put the knife on Cao Kun's neck again: "Say! Who did it!"
"I really don't know... ah!"
Cai Kuan wiped his neck directly.
Then the knife rested on Cao Huan's neck, who was in charge, and Cao Huan just hesitated, but was also wiped on his neck.
In the blink of an eye, three people died in the Banking Bureau!
Qianshu Lu Dian exclaimed: "Don't kill me, don't kill me, it's Liu Dazhuang's craft, it's Liu Dazhuang's craft!"
"Liu Dazhuang!"
Cai Kuan turned his head abruptly and looked at craftsman Liu Dazhuang.
Liu Dazhuang was so frightened that he feces and urine flowed out.
Hire everything.
He took Wang Xi's money and secretly made it for Wang Xi.
Jin Zhong patted Cai Kuan on the face: "Good job."
Cai Kuan shivered and knelt down to thank him.
Then, pointing at Liu Dazhuang, his eyes were fierce: "Drag him out!"
Pointing to Lu Dian again: "He is also there!"
Liu Dazhuang was dragged out by two Jin Yiwei.
"How did you know it was Liu Dazhuang's work? Did you participate?" Jin Zhong didn't interrogate Liu Dazhuang, but stared at Lu Dian instead.
Lu Dian shook his head: "Duke Wei, please forgive me, this officer only recognized Liu Dazhuang's craftsmanship, and absolutely did not participate in it!"
"Just recognize it?"
Jin Zhong walked towards Wang Rui who was writing, and picked him up: "Do you recognize him?"
"The lower officials are just writing, not in charge of craftsmen in the bank bureau, and really don't know anything!" Wang Rui was terrified.
"Our family is asking you, do you recognize me?" Jin Zhong stared at him.
Wang Rui shook his head.
Jin Zhong left him, grabbed another supervisor, and asked him if he recognized him.
He also said he didn't recognize it.
Jin Zhong came back and put the knife on Lu Dian's neck: "Everyone doesn't recognize it, why do you recognize it? Lu Qianshu, don't lie to our family! Our family is small-minded, if we are deceived, we will be cruel Revenge!"
Lu Dian glanced at the emperor in horror, the emperor sat quietly, obviously supporting Jin Zhong.
He vaguely guessed what the emperor was looking for!
"The lower official just recognizes it, and has never participated in it...ah!" Lu Dian let out a scream.
One of his ears was chopped off by Jin Zhong.
"Do you know that Wang Xi conspired to rebel, and he hid the list of party members in this silver ingot!"
"Liu Dazhuang's private possession of the list shows that he also participated in the rebellion. You, Lu Qianshu, also recognize Liu Dazhuang's craftsmanship. What a coincidence, even opera singers dare not sing such a coincidence!"
"What? Do you think our brains are broken?"
Jin Zhong raised his knife and wanted to chop it again: "Come here, arrest Lu Dian's family!"
"No, no..." Lu Dian was terrified.
But the Xiuchun saber slashed down and slashed hard on his shoulder, blood spattered, Lu Dian rolled over and screamed, "I've recruited you! Give me a good time!"
He admitted that he was the one who introduced Liu Dazhuang to Wang Xi.
"Who else?" Jin Zhong asked.
Lu Dian glanced at the other people in the Yinzuo Bureau. Everyone in the Yinzuo Bureau was terrified, worried that Lu Dian would bite.
Jin Zhong pressed the blade on the back of his neck, and he cried and pointed out several people.
"Wei Du, the lower officials don't know that Wang Xi is rebelling, they just took over private work, beg Wei Du, please spare the lower official's family!" Lu Dian cried for forgiveness.
Just take over the private job and fool the ghost!
Isn't Wang Xi's use of silver to hide secrets implying that Zhang Fu stole the silver in the inner carrier?
The silver in the inner carrier warehouse is cast and engraved, so I dare not circulate it blatantly.
It must go through the hands of silversmiths to recast silver.
Moreover, Wang Xi's henchmen have also been recruited, and they have indeed stolen money from the inner carrier.
But where exactly it went, no one knows.
Therefore, it is necessary to pry the craftsman's mouth open.
What if there is an unexpected harvest.
But Jin Zhong knelt down, pressed his head to look at the chopped ear, and said with a smile, "Just one ear is missing, so I won't delay my life."
"Lu Dian, there is something our family would like to ask you to help with. It is done. Not only will your family be spared, but you will also be spared! How about it?"
Lu Dian survived the desperate situation and nodded desperately.
"Don't be afraid, our family is not a man-eating tiger, relax, the emperor is watching, the emperor is the most benevolent majesty in the world."
"Just now our family's tactics were a little bit harsh, please bear with me."
"Our family is also a servant girl. Our family dare not neglect the things that the emperor told us. Are you right?"
Jin Zhong observed Lu Dian. In fact, he was dissatisfied that Cai Kuan had killed everyone. Wang Xi was already dead and the line was broken, but he just dug out some henchmen.
The real purpose is the money in the inner carrier warehouse!
The emperor is short of money, so short that he is going crazy. In the whole palace, every decent thing has been pawned. The emperor is suffering.
"I don't dare to blame Weidu, I dare not!" Lu Dian nodded repeatedly.
Jin Zhong was laughing: "Tell Ben Du, did the Banking Bureau come in with some shady money recently?"
"Or, there are a large number of craftsmen from the Banking Bureau who went out to pick up private jobs?"
"Our family told you directly that the money was lost in the inner transport warehouse. Whoever touches it will lose his head; if he knows and doesn't report it, the nine clans will be wiped out!"
Lu Dian's expression changed.
Jin Zhong knew it and asked the right person.
"Speak out, how about our family pleading with the emperor to let you be the ambassador of the Banking Bureau?" Jin Zhong comforted him.
A glimmer of hope burst out of Lu Dian's despair.
But at this moment, Wang Rui, who was writing just now, suddenly launched a charge: "I'll kill you dog eunuch!"
puff!
Jin Zhong slashed his chest with his backhand, and blood spattered Lu Dian's face.
"The man is not dead yet, arrest him, don't take advantage of him, dare to assassinate the governor? Throw him into the imperial prison and interrogate slowly!"
With a cruel smile on Jin Zhong's face, he squatted down again and patted Lu Dian on the shoulder: "Speak!"
Lu Dian couldn't hold back anymore, his tears flowed wildly, he said a few names, some people wanted to run away, there is a huge network here, how can they run away?
Jin Zhong was stunned, was he found so easily?
Is this the benefit of the emperor killing Chen Xun and controlling the court?
There is no way to hide from any ghosts and monsters.
According to the account of the craftsman, the money did not go into the silver work bureau, but a supervisor named Liu Yan contacted the craftsmen of the silver work bureau, and took them to the mountains to refine the silver every night.
Liu Yan explained that the place where the silver was hidden was a barren hill in the suburbs.
"Jin Zhong, take someone to copy it immediately! Be quick!" Zhu Qiyu said.
"Slaves obey the order!" Jin Zhong knelt down to receive the order, and led Lu Dian, Liu Yan and others to find the barren mountain.
Zhu Qiyu stood up slowly, looking at the many craftsmen of the Bank who were kneeling on the ground.
"You were originally my most loyal slaves."
"But I don't want to become a den of thieves!"
"Find out the criminals, Zhu Clan!"
"Above the supervisor, regardless of whether they know it or not, they will all be executed!"
Zhu Qiyu's gaze was sharp like a knife: "Everyone in the Bank is waiting, if you don't report what you know, you will be fined for three years!"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me! Your Majesty, I didn't participate in it, and I didn't know about it!" A supervisor cried out.
"I don't know about this, I don't know about that, what kind of supervisor are you doing?"
"Supervisor, supervisor, if I give you power, you will have responsibility!"
"When you enjoy power, you must take responsibility!"
Zhu Qiyu's eyes became sharper: "Those who call you wronged, kill the clan!"
"From now on, the twelve supervisors, the four divisions and the eight bureaus will be organized in pairs according to the Qianqing palace regulations, and the method of sitting together will be practiced! One person commits a crime, and two people will be punished! No pleading!"
This is Zhu Qiyu's real purpose!
And the silver game is to kill chickens to scare monkeys!
The eunuch Ruan Rang trembled, the emperor asked him to listen to the sound, he was beating him, obediently surrendered to the emperor, if he hesitated again, the next one to be cleaned would be the imperial horse supervisor!
"Slaves wait to obey the order!" Ruan Rang prostrated himself on the ground, extremely respectful.
"My lord, my lord, this servant helped you find out Lu Dian, and the governor of Wei promised this servant to spare this servant!" Cai Kuan crawled over, crying and begging for mercy.
"Heh, Cai Kuan, you are the admiral and eunuch, and my internal transport warehouse was stolen. You knew that there was a sum of money in the barren hills outside the city, but you didn't report it. How dare you beg me for mercy?"
Zhu Qiyu sneered: "Jin Zhong promises you, you can go to Jin Zhong."
He moves his fingers.
Before Cai Kuan could speak, the Dongchang Fanzi beheaded directly.
What is the use of this kind of rubbish that is eaten inside and out?
"Those who are involved with Wang Xi, those who are involved too much, will be punished by the clan! Those who are lightly involved, the whole family will be demoted to artisan households, and they will be filled in all bureaus."
Zhu Qiyu raised his hands high and did not kill too much.
Immediately, he looked at Ruan Rang.
"My lord, this servant is loyal to you and has no second thoughts!" Ruan Rang kowtowed like garlic.
There are very few people who give charcoal in the snow, and the icing on the cake abounds.
When I was in urgent need of people before, no one helped me; now that I have power in my hands, everyone flocks to them like a dog, which is really ridiculous.
"Get up, follow me to see the horse raising army." Zhu Qiyu wanted to hold the last strength in Beijing in his palm.
The Yumajian is in the northeast corner, and the Yinzuoju is in the southwest corner, which is exactly symmetrical.
On the way, Zhu Qiyu asked Li Jin if he would like to take over the horse army.
"Your Majesty, I am worried about your safety!" Of course Li Jin wanted to admiral Ma Jun.
"It's okay, there is no danger in the palace."
Chen Xun is dead, and the imperial power is in his hands, who would foolishly follow the rebellion?
Don't treat people as fools.
Wouldn't it be nice to sacrifice your life for the emperor?
If you have to put your head on your waistband to rebel, what are you trying to do?
Today is different from the past, the emperor has seized the imperial power, and he can award a lot of rewards. When the money in the inner carrier is recovered, the emperor's waist will be even harder.
The possibility of winning the door again is gone.
"You recommend two people from Habayashi Qianwei to me, and they will be in charge of Yubayashi Qianwei, so I can rest easy." Zhu Qiyu is very confident.
"The minister obeys the order!"
Li Jin smiled, this is the benefit of relying on the emperor.
The horse raising army, under its jurisdiction are the Warriors Battalion and the Four Guards Battalion, all of whom are elite soldiers in the world.
Of course, it is not known whether the horse raising army is now elite.
"Okay, I order you to command the horse-raising army, under the jurisdiction of the Warriors' Battalion and the Four Guards Battalion, you select the available talents in the battalion, and send those who are not available to the guards. After this battle is over, you can choose from the Tianxia Guards Strong and strong, he will be raised in the horse army."
Taizu set up a horse army to guard against rape and humiliation. It was the last line of defense in the palace, and the eunuchs should hold the military power.
But Zhu Qiyu doesn't plan to raise Ma Jun in Beijing.
But to pull to the battlefield to fight.
This horse raising army will become his first direct line army.
Therefore, the eunuch cannot be allowed to fully control the military power, nor can the military power be completely handed over to Li Jin.
"I will ask Zhao Shun to cooperate with you again. Zhao Shun is an honest man and will not interfere in any of your decisions."
Zhu Qiyu gave Li Jin a reassurance: "Zhao Shun is the admiral and eunuch, you will be the commander of the capital for now, and when the time is right, I will appoint you as the commander-in-chief."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En!" Li Jin understood that all armies had eunuchs as supervisors. He knew that Zhao Shun was indeed an honest man. The emperor didn't send the old man out to take care of him.
"I will give you the actual amount of 1 people."
Zhu Qiyu glanced at him, and said in a cold tone: "The ones at the border gate and the Beijing camp should not be taken to the horse raising army, you know?"
"I know!" Li Jin trembled all over, the root cause of Xuanzhen's defeat, I'm afraid the emperor already knew it.
"You don't have to worry about the military salary. The household department doesn't go out, and the internal money goes out. I will send someone to the bottom to ask. Every soldier has to receive a real salary, you know?" Zhu Qiyu's voice was cold.
Daming's military pay is really outrageously low, but it's not bad if the soldiers on the front line can get one-tenth of it, so they don't work hard in training or fighting.
It's so bad, hasn't it beaten the northern captives for more than 200 years!
Who said Daming has no sons?
"I dare not touch a cent of the military salary!" Li Jin kowtowed.
"In the horse raising army, whoever touches it will be killed! This is the power I gave you!" Zhu Qiyu snorted coldly.
"The minister obeys the order!"
Zhu Qiyu's tone softened: "I have prepared your share for you, and I have also given out the shares for officers at all levels, is that okay?"
Li Jin knelt on the ground in fright, not even daring to speak.
"You don't have to, but the people below have to. I will make a statement in the future, and you can just get paid according to the above."
It is impossible for Zhu Qiyu to increase the military salary, he does not have so much money.
Moreover, the horse raising army is going to be adjusted, so don't all the guards in the world follow suit?Force people to rebel?
If you want to turn it up, you have to turn it up.
Therefore, directly raising the military salary is an act of courting death.
It can only be rewarded in the form of a gift.
You can't reward too much, because raising horses is useless, just because the emperor likes to give more rewards?Frontier customs and Beijing camp uniforms?
That's not a reward, but a factor of turmoil.
This is Zhu Qiyu beating Li Jin.
"Li Jin, I'll give you the right to raise the horse army, and I'll give you expediency, but I want to see the result!" Zhu Qiyu's eyes sharpened.
"Your Majesty will see a strong army in three months!" Li Jin was also furious.
"Okay! The elite is not about the number of people, but the number of people is also the elite! I will give you the full power to raise the horse army!"
Zhu Qiyu believed in Li Jin, because after all, the horse raising army had a solid foundation, so if we cleared out a batch of them and practiced for three months, they would always achieve some results.
"Li Jin, this horse-raising army is going to gallop across Mobei in the future. You have to train me well." Zhu Qiyu patted him on the shoulder and made him retreat.
He also ordered Zhao Shun to come over and explain a few words.
"I went to raise the horse army. You are my eyes. I will always report what you see to me. You are not allowed to add personal emotions, you know?"
Zhao Shun showed reluctance on his face: "The maidservant takes the order."
"Don't stretch out your hands indiscriminately. This kind of horse breeding army is not popular. Don't dirty my army, understand?" Zhu Qiyu beat him.
"Your servant knows! The emperor asked me to take it, so my servant dares to take it." Zhao Shun prostrated himself on the ground.
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Not only can you not reach out, but if you reach out, you will chop off his claws! Remember, the horse army belongs to me, and any tentacles that come in will be chopped off by me!"
"Slaves understand!" Zhao Shun had been in the palace for so many years, so he didn't understand anything, but he was honest in front of the emperor.
"Go."
Zhu Qiyu told the imperial chariot to stop: "I won't go to the Yumajian, let's pass the imperial decree. I will go to the Yumajian again in three months."
Ruan Rang was taken aback for a moment, but he almost cried when he heard the imperial decree.
The emperor emptied his power as the eunuch in charge of horses and seals.
However, it was much better than the end of the silver game.
"Ruan Rang, after three months, I will see the results." Zhu Qiyu warned him that if you dare to make a mistake, your head will be killed in three months.
"Slaves would like to obey the imperial edict!"
Ruan Rang wanted to cry, but the emperor could still listen to what the emperor said, and if he could produce results within three months, wouldn't he be favored by the emperor.
"Go back to the palace."
Zhu Qiyu temporarily changed his decision because Huai En came to report that Fang Ying and Shi Pu had entered Beijing and were on their way to the palace.
After a stick of incense, Zhu Qiyu was eating.
Fang Ying and Shi Pu entered the Palace of Qinzheng in a hurry.
"You two lovers, I look forward to the stars and the moon, and I finally bring you back to Beijing!" Zhu Qiyu looked excited.
Fang Ying was single-handedly promoted by him. He succeeded his father as a commander, and was later named Jue Nan He Bo for his meritorious service. It can be said that Fang Ying is his direct descendant.
It's just that Fang Ying doesn't stand in line.
Now that the situation is clear, there is no need to worry that Fang Ying will seek refuge with the Supreme Emperor.
Shi Pu is interesting, he bribed Jin Ying in order to get promoted, and he should be executed according to the law, and he was saved by Zhu Qiyu.
He didn't participate in party struggles either, but he made good friends with Li Xian.
"Your Majesty, do you use this for dinner?" Shi Pu looked at the porridge and pickles on the table in surprise.
"Hey, old Shangshu, the court is in trouble. I can only take the lead and eat this. I hope that my subjects can also follow Daming to tide over the difficulties like me." Zhu Qiyu pretended.
"It's easy to teach Shi Shangshu to know that the emperor has been eating porridge and pickles for half a month, and even sent out the servants in the palace." Feng Xiao was beside him miserably.
Shi Pu was moved to tears: "There is such a virtuous king in the world, why should Ming be unhappy!"
"Old Shangshu, Nan He Bo, tell me about Huguang first." Zhu Qiyu asked for a seat, and he ate up the porridge that he hadn't finished, and then asked to remove it.
"Let Nan and Bo talk about it."
Fang Ying started from entering Yuanzhou and said that more than 160 villages including Guiban were broken.
He and Shangshu Shi Pu moved to Tianzhu, led Li Zhen, Chen You and others to attack Tiantang and other strongholds, and defeated the rebels.
A total of 270 villages were conquered, and one hundred and two people below the fake Houbo were captured alive.
"When I left, according to the imperial decree, I handed over the military power to Li Zhen and Chen You, the governors. Li Zhen was the commander-in-chief, and Chen You was the deputy commander-in-chief."
Fang Yingdao: "I thought that Huguang seedlings are in chaos, but the land of Huguang is completely rotten, and refugees are everywhere, so there is no way to recuperate!"
Putting down the Miao chaos is a military means, but to restore peace in the vast land of the lake, political means are needed.
"The veteran thinks that Huguang should focus on care. It is best for the court to spend a large amount of money and grain, reform the land and resettle the refugees on the spot, and then exempt them from taxes for a few years, and Huguang can be settled." Shi Pu Seriously.
"How much does the old Shangshu think it will cost?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"I'm afraid it will take millions of taels." Shi Pu smiled wryly.
"So much?" Zhu Qiyu was also surprised.
"Your Majesty does not know."
Fang Ying answered: "The chaos in Huguang is not limited to the people of Huguang, but the refugees from all over the world are going to Huguang."
"According to the local official's report, there are more than one million refugees in Huguang, but according to my estimate, the number is more than one million."
"There are several villages. At first, I thought they were Miao people, but I saw that the clothes were the same as those of the Han family. After inquiring, I found out that they were all fleeing households and had lived in the villages for many years."
"Such villages abound, and the accent is not from Huguang, and there are people everywhere."
Zhu Qiyu's eyes sharpened, Huguang officials should be killed!
Sooner or later, clear Huguang officialdom!
"The old Shangshu said one million taels, but I think it might not be enough."
"If the court really gives money to Huguang, it will resettle the refugees."
"I'm afraid it will attract refugees from all over the world to go to Huguang. Now the world..."
Fang Ying suddenly realized something and didn't dare to continue.
"Nan Hebo, you don't have to be afraid to talk to me."
"I know that this prosperous Ming Dynasty is nothing more than whitewashing the peace."
"There are refugees everywhere outside the capital, let alone places?" Zhu Qiyu said truthfully.
Fang Ying was a little surprised, the emperor seemed to be a little different.
But Shi Pu knew something. Li Xian often wrote to him, so he knew about the changes in the court.
It turns out that the emperor has been pretending to be stupid for the past eight years.
Now in charge of Tianxiajian, I don't know if he will become Jianwen or Taizong?
Fang Ying gritted her teeth and said: "When I entered the capital, there were refugees everywhere in the suburbs of Beijing. I was worried that if this continues, there might be riots from refugees!"
He did not dare to elaborate, fearing that the emperor would be furious.
"Rebellion shouldn't happen. Although there are many refugees, I have issued an order to help temples and Taoist temples outside the city. They can always have a bite of food. If they are not full, they will not die of hunger." Zhu Qiyu chuckled.
But Fang Ying dared not speak.
The smile on Zhu Qiyu's face was stiff: "Nan Hebo, did I say something wrong?"
"Your Majesty is right!" Fang Ying was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and remained silent.
"What did you see? Fang Ying, tell me!" Zhu Qiyu's voice became stern.
Fang Ying knew that she had said the wrong thing. With the scene outside the city, no one in the court said a word, so no one dared to lift the lid.
I am also stupid. I am obviously not involved in party disputes and want to protect my life wisely. How can I be so happy, say that I am bald, and say everything!
How does it end here?
"Your Majesty, the most important thing now is Xuanfu, Shandong." Shi Pu rescued Fang Ying.
Zhu Qiyu restrained his murderous intent: "What the old Shangshu said is true, but I don't want to be blind, deaf, or fool! Fang Ying, say it!"
"I ask Your Majesty to appease your anger first!"
Fang Ying knew it, so it was impossible not to say it: "Outside the city, there are tens of thousands of refugees."
"Selling children and selling daughters happens every day."
"I saw with my own eyes that a man led two children, kneeling in front of my horse, begging me to buy them."
"That man's belly is swollen. He must have eaten Guanyin soil. I'm afraid he won't survive."
"There are also some women who can do anything as long as they are given a bite..."
Selling children?
Women out of morals?
This is a sign of troubled times!
Zhu Qiyu felt chills down his spine, if someone with ambition provoked him, it would be another continuous rebellion.
At that time, the world will be full of wars, what if there is another emperor Taizu!
"What about the relief? The palace also contributed money. My Huangzhuang and Huangdian all contributed money. I have approved the note and approved it every day. I have paid for it." Zhu Qiyu still had a glimmer of hope.
"Back to Your Majesty, I have walked more than ten miles, but I didn't see a soup kitchen!"
"what?"
Zhu Qiyu stood up abruptly, picked up Fang Ying, and said with a ferocious face, "You didn't see any of them?"
"Impossible, I approve the note every day!"
"There are also temples and Taoist temples. I have issued a decree. Every temple must set up a porridge shed outside the city to provide relief to the refugees. Why not?"
He let go of Fang Ying, it was not Fang Ying's fault.
Muttering to himself: "Is it so difficult to give the common people a way to survive?"
"You are all enjoying the rich clothes and fine food, beautiful wives and beautiful concubines, you have everything!"
"I've given you what you want, why are you so greedy? Why don't you give common people a way out?"
"Forcing them to rebel?"
"Forcing them to fight into the city?"
"Forcing the world to produce another great ancestor?"
"Forcing Daming to overthrow?"
Zhu Qiyu couldn't control his emotions.
He always thought that the current Daming was at most a bit rotten, but he never thought that it was rotten!Rotten to the bone!
When did it start to rot?
Renzong?Xuanzong?Or is it too emperor?
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Shi Pu called several times.
"Zhen, I always thought that I was qualified as an emperor, but I didn't think so. It's a joke!"
Zhu Qiyu's eyes were as sharp as a knife: "Pass the decree! Summon all the eunuchs and stewards of Huangzhuang and Huangdian in Beijing, and all the people should wait for them to listen to the decree at the Meridian Gate!"
Only blood can extinguish Zhu Qiyu's anger.
"My lord!" Feng Xiao knelt on the ground in horror.
He is not worried about killing some eunuchs and managing affairs, he is worried that the emperor will do something to temples and Taoist temples, because they are hornet's nests and cannot be touched.
"go with!"
Zhu Qiyu exploded.
But both Fang Ying and Shi Pu knelt down and begged the emperor to appease his anger.
"I will deal with my own slaves! Can't I?"
Zhu Qiyu is not crazy yet. Temples and Taoist temples are hornet's nests, and they cannot be poked. Are Huangzhuang and Huangdian also hornet's nests?
"Your Majesty!" Fang Ying was extremely regretful. I am afraid that if his words spread today, he would be scolded to death by monks and Taoists, and he might even die suddenly.
"It's okay, your words will not be spread, don't worry."
Zhu Qiyu took a few breaths and calmed down: "Let Lao Shangshu and Nan Hebo watch the joke, I really can't hold back anymore, I made a slip of the tongue."
"Your Majesty loves the people, and I feel the same way!" Shi Pu flattered him.
This is to show favor to the emperor.
"Fang Ying, are there no porridge sheds in temples or Taoist temples?" Zhu Qiyu asked again.
Fang Ying wanted to beat herself to death, but she still said: "Report to Your Majesty, there is, but there is no porridge in the porridge shed. You can only eat porridge if you sell your children to temples or Taoist temples."
"Hehe!" Zhu Qiyu was amused, and smiled miserably.
This is a trafficker!
Worse than human traffickers!
What exactly do you believe in?Devil?hehe!
Monk Taoism is a hornet's nest, I can't afford it!
But the wicked need to be grinded by the wicked.
Just wait and see!
I am the master of the world!
"Nan and Bo feel at ease, every word you say in the Palace of Qinzheng will not get out!" Zhu Qiyu has this confidence.
Shi Pu was slightly surprised, he was the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and he knew about the embarrassment of the emperor for the past eight years.
But I didn't expect that the emperor's power had swelled to such a degree after menstruation.
"Forget it, don't talk about it."
Zhu Qiyu smiled: "Fang Ying, I originally planned to let you enter the Beijing camp, but now the Beijing camp is going to fight, and there are no soldiers in the camp."
"But I plan to organize a regiment battalion. Originally there are ten regiment battalions. I plan to add two more, twelve regiment battalions."
"When Yu Shaofu and Shi Heng reformed the Beijing camp before, the reform was not thorough. When the Beijing camp returns to Beijing, I plan to disrupt it again and reform thoroughly."
Speaking of this, Zhu Qiyu looked at Shi Pu: "Old Shangshu also knows that Xuanzhen was defeated in the first battle and suffered heavy losses. Even if it wins in the future, it is hard to say how many people can return to Beijing."
The three people in Qinzheng Hall sighed.
Shi Pu and Fang Ying had just returned to Beijing, so they didn't dare to talk casually, they only listened to what the emperor said.
"So train two more battalions, with a total of 5000 people. I will hand over both regiments and battalions to you! You will be the commander-in-chief! You will be stamped with the gold seal of the Military Aircraft Department!"
Zhu Qiyu is going to wantonly gather military power, and no one can stop him!
"The soldiers are no longer selected from the guards. Firstly, there is no time, and secondly, when the Beijing camp returns to the capital, they need to be replenished with soldiers from the guards."
"I plan to recruit from the middle of Beijing."
Zhu Qiyu hesitated again: "If possible, recruit some from the refugees, and I can give them some land as appropriate."
This……
Fang Ying's expression changed instantly, this is another hornet's nest!
The Gyeonggi refugees are the source of tenants for the tyrants in the capital, and they are also the source of handymen for monks and Taoists.
If the regiment camp recruits from the refugees again, I'm afraid it will be ominous!
"Scared?"
Zhu Qiyu sneered: "I sent eunuchs to recruit, and you are training soldiers."
Fang Ying was put on the fire and roasted!
The emperor is forcing him to be a lone minister, and he is worried about letting him control the power of the capital, so he is forced to break up with the powerful people in the capital.
This hand of the emperor's mind is brilliant!
"I'm not afraid, I'm willing to recruit among the refugees!" Fang Ying gritted her teeth.
"Okay, I will give you the Son of Heaven Sword. Those who block it, don't ask who it is, kill it directly! Anyone who competes with you for soldiers, kill it!"
The corners of Zhu Qiyu's mouth curled up: "Fang Ying, is your second son ten years old this year? I remember correctly, I think your son Fang Han's age is about the same as Gu'an's age, why don't I make a marriage with you, how about it?"
Fang Ying was taken aback, her son, Princess Shang, this is the Holy Family Zhengnong!
Shi Pu was also secretly shocked, the emperor only had two daughters, the youngest daughter had a disease, the eldest princess was loved by the emperor, but she was going to marry Fang Ying's second son, it can be seen that the emperor had to use Fang Ying extremely, so he was willing to spend so much money!
That is to say, the emperor not only wanted Fang Ying to control the two battalions, but more...
Use him to replace Yu Qian?
"Your Majesty, how can I win the princess?" Fang Ying was a little scared.
Once he married the emperor, he had no choice but to run to the dark.
This is contrary to his code of not forming a party and being wise and safe.
Fang Ying is not afraid of going to the battlefield, but in court, he is easily played to death.
"This matter is settled, there is no need to discuss it."
Zhu Qiyu made the final decision.
The reason why he chose Fang Ying was that on the one hand, Fang Ying was capable of fighting, and on the other hand, Fang Ying had two good subordinates, Li Zhen and Chen You, who were both generals, and he needed to rely on them.
"I obey the order!" Fang Ying kowtowed to accept the order.
"I love Gu'an very much, Fang Qing can rest assured."
Zhu Qiyu told him that although Princess Gu'an's mother was the abolished Wang family, it could not offset the emperor's love for her daughter.
"Fang Han's ability to honor the princess is a blessing he has cultivated in several lifetimes!" Fang Ying's reluctance must be suppressed.
"Let Fang Yi enter the palace to accompany you tomorrow."
Zhu Qiyu had to take out an insurance policy. Fang Ying's eldest son, Fang Yi, entered the palace as a hostage.
"The minister obeys the order!"
But at this moment, a Datong urgent report came in from outside the palace.
"Wait a minute, two lovers, let's watch together."
Zhu Qiyu opened the memorial, glanced at it, and frowned immediately: "Old Madam Fu is really good at predicting things, the [-] extra enemy troops in Xuanzhen really came from the northwest!"
Guo Deng, the commander-in-chief of Datong, sent a report that on the 22nd of the first lunar month, some Fanmin were looted.
At the beginning, many guards in Datong Town didn't care, but after being robbed, all the people in Kansai came to Datong for help, but Guo Deng refused on the grounds that Xuanzhen was in an emergency.
Later, some people were robbed and ran to Datong to plunder, but were repelled by Datong town guards.
Guo Dengcai sent people to investigate, and learned that the Kansai tribes had been robbed by the Wala people.
This group of Oirat soldiers descended from the sky again, descended on the Xuanfu, and defeated Yang Xin's generals.
"Old Shangshu, you also know about military affairs."
After the two had finished watching, Zhu Qiyu asked Shi Pu: "Will I take the opportunity to take back the land of Hetao after I repel Oirat?"
Shi Pu had already guessed the emperor's mind, the emperor wanted to be Taizong!
"Your Majesty, the Hetao is barren. It is easy for our Ming army to take back the Hetao, but it is difficult to manage it!" Shi Pu smiled wryly.
After all, there is no money!
If you want to collect the loop, you have to throw money into it!
Even, as long as you own the river loop, you have to keep throwing money into it, which is a bottomless pit.
But the strategic value of Hetao is self-evident, and it is also the territory of the Han family. If it is not taken back, there is really no way to explain it.
"Old Shangshu, how much money do you estimate will be needed?" Zhu Qiyu asked again.
Seeing that the emperor was determined to accept Hehuang, Shi Pu could only estimate a figure: "Five or six million taels of silver should be enough, and the old officials dare not say that they are dead, but this money has to be invested every year."
Zhu Qiyu clicked his tongue, how much money does Daming only collect in a year.
These 10 taels, those 10 taels, how can they be divided!
"Moreover, the food problem is the most difficult to solve. The food grown in Hetao is difficult to be self-sufficient and needs to be transported from the south. Once there is a catastrophe in the south, there will be endless rebellions in Hetao. All the money invested in governance before will be wiped out." The water is floating." Shi Pu explained.
To solve the Hetao problem, the first difficulty is money and food.
"I understand." Zhu Qiyu sighed.
This cannot be solved with the availability of corn. The yield per mu of corn in this era may not be high.
But if corn can be grown in the Hetao area, the food problem should be alleviated, right?
Zhu Qiyu was not sure, so let's go and see.
"Your Majesty, I have a question for Your Majesty." Shi Pu endured for a long time before asking.
"You say."
"Your Majesty will practice regiment camp again, where will the salary come from?" Shi Pu was puzzled.
"Let's get the money out."
Zhu Qiyu understood that Shi Pu was asking whether he should be guarded by civil officials.
"Originally, I planned to let Li Bing and Fang Ying cooperate, but Xuanzhen couldn't do without Li Bing, and I sent Nian Fu over. They are all soldiers. I really have no one in my mind. May I ask the old Shangshu Recommend a civil servant who understands military matters to assist Fang Ying?"
Zhu Qiyu didn't tear himself apart with the civil servants, so naturally he couldn't change the rules.
When Shi Pu heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief: "The old minister has someone to choose, Kou Shen."
Zhu Qiyu's eyes lit up.
He was worried about how to arrange Kou Shen, Kou Shen's qualifications are too high, so Wang Fu might not be able to deal with him if he was put into the General Administration Department.
Asking Kou Shen to help Fang Ying take charge of the regiment camp will not only reassure Wenchen's heart, but also Zhu Qiyu's.
Why not.
