Chapter 535: The Empress Manages the Inner Treasury
Chapter 535: The Queen Manages the Inner Treasury
Looking at Su You, who patiently explained everything to the ministers, Zhao Ji's heart at the moment can be described as grateful.
The diversion of the Yellow River and the natural danger to the north, although it is temporarily harmful, but it has invisibly strengthened the defense force of Hebei, and also silted up a large area of fertile soil.
Su You's statement freed him from the king's immoral punishment from heaven.
It was not from the pressure given to him by the Prime Minister of Taiwan, but from the fear in his heart.
Whew, bondage suddenly feels, it's so good!
However, Sima Guang would not let him relax: "Your Majesty, throughout history, today's river disaster is the accumulation of disadvantages caused by the lack of force from the end of the Tang Dynasty to the present. ”
"The daily sales are ruined, and it will eventually become a big disaster, and now it needs to be diligent and accumulated, and it will be corrected, even if it does not see the big profit, it will also benefit future generations."
"It's the day, it's the day. Rather than hearing that change will be ten years from now, it will be able to slack off today. ”
Zhao Ji's palms began to sweat again, and he said solemnly: "The bachelor's words are yes, with the bachelor by my side, I will not be easy to make mistakes." ”
After speaking, he looked at Zeng Gongliang Fubi and Wang Anshi with a blank eye: "Do you still have any questions?" What is discussed in the Consultation Essentials? ”
Then seeing Su You raise his hand, Zhao Ji asked, "Mingrun still has an explanation?" ”
Su You hoarsely voiced: "Water...... Water ......"
The ministers laughed at this time, and explained from the previous court to noon, they should be a little thirsty.
Zhao Ji waved his hand to let the waiter bring tea, and Fu Bicai said: "Master Sima and Su Mingrun's "River Consultation Summary" was not in the previous life, and there were many questions. Many of the controversial points now seem to have fallen to the empirical point, which can be called the basis and outline of river governance, and the minister believes that what is discussed should be implemented. ”
Wu Chong arched his hand, and then pointed to the map: "The minister seconded the proposal, in addition, the minister please engrave this map, the Privy Council will still be of great use in the future." ”
Su Youxin raised his throat and looked at Wang Anshi with a teacup.
Listening to Wang Anshi's calm words: "So far, the minister has no objection, Su Mingrun has found out the truth and details of Hebei during this inspection." The general direction has been established, and when it comes to specific measures to control the river, it is still necessary to ask His Majesty to issue an edict, order all roads to make suggestions, and learn from public opinions. ”
Su You finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he worked hard to move things in the right direction, and he didn't have to worry about river affairs in the future.
Li Lizhi, the supervisor of the capital water, and Wang Ya, who raised the canal, originally held the idea of flowing north, but now Su You has proved their correctness, and naturally supports it.
Song Changyan, the supervisor of the capital water, said that Cheng Fang, the servant of the Tuntian Metropolitan Prison in Hebei Province, originally advocated reflux, but after Cheng Fang followed Su You's actual investigation, one data item after another proved that the reflux was unrealistic, and now he has changed his opinion.
Compared with eating swords in the future, it is more cost-effective to change your opinion.
Song Changyan is difficult to support alone, and Su You spoke for him, and the previous two discussions actually did not blame them, because this time the measurement used a large number of new measuring tools, statistical methods, and a large number of mathematical talents, historical experts, the previous water supervisors, river and canal divisions, and Tuntian governors, all of whom did not have such means and methods, so it is inevitable that misjudgment will occur.
However, it is not too late to make amends, this time all kinds of measuring equipment, water gauges, theodolites, flow meters, precipitation measuring instruments, etc., need to be quickly configured for the water supervision, hydrological reports, to form specific regulations, formats, and annual collection and summary, so as to control the general river situation.
These things are indeed artifacts, and many of them are transparent glass products, which are precious.
This is tantamount to winning the power of the River Canal Division and the Capital Water Supervisor, and then there will definitely be additional funds, which means that the board has not been knocked down, but the fruit has been sent, Song Changyan will oppose it again, and he will be scolded by his colleagues when he goes back.
The discussion on river defense has basically reached a conclusion at this point, and if Su You cannot come up with such a detailed investigation report, the voice of the Huihe faction will not be heard.
After the dispersal of the dynasty, Su You and Sima Guang were left alone by Zhao Ji to speak.
According to the Heavenly Patrol, the people's situation, the disaster situation, and the military situation are not suitable for public discussion in the court, so they can only be reported in private.
Hearing that the two of them implemented Li Suzhi's method of cash-for-work in Hebei, as well as the example of Fubi's disaster relief, and now that the disaster has largely subsided, Zhao Ji sighed and said: "It turns out that there is no way, but I don't know." Bachelor, Mingrun, this time it's hard. ”
The two of them didn't even dare to say no.
Zhao Ji said: "I heard the first emperor say that when Taizong, the treasures in the treasury were recorded with a tooth of money per thousand, and the names were different, and the color of the money used was also different, and only Taizong knew the real amount. The Imperial Pavilion is placed in the box, and the fixed number is checked with the same account. ”
"In his later years, he once showed the true sect with his own money, saying, 'It is enough to protect this!' ”
Even historians like Sima Guang had never heard of this, and Su You looked at each other, not understanding what Zhao Ji meant.
Zhao Ji also said: "The case will be made, and the new law will be held, all of which are cheap, and the treasury books in the palace are only stationery, and the goods are in and out, and there is little defense." ”
"Mingrun cleaned up the two warehouses, the waste was used, and the value added was 200,000 yuan, and the inner warehouse had previously tasted borneol and pearls in the cargo business, but it was not on the account, nor was it hooked."
"It has been in the library for more than 100 years without compilation! How can this work? I want to take an inventory of the inner library! ”
Sima Guang looked at Su You, which means that I don't understand this matter at all, it's up to you.
The inner treasury is the emperor's small treasury, which is under the control of the inner court, and Su You certainly doesn't want to provoke this fishy shame.
Clean up the Ji Si, that's for the sake of the country, the emperor's small treasury is my?!
After thinking for a while, he said: "Your Majesty, the ministers are in charge of the generals, and there are also many internal workshops, which are now properly prepared by the new method, but how to hand over the annual profits to the inner treasury is not the scope of the minister's responsibility." ”
Zhao Ji is not as polite as talking to Su You, he can hear it from the title: "Mingrun, whether it is your duty or not, isn't it asking for advice now!" ”
Su You's head shook and snored: "This is Your Majesty's family matter, how can the foreign minister intervene?" Anyway, the ministers don't care about the accounts at home. ”
Zhao Ji looked at Sima Guang as if asking for help.
Sima Guang's old face turned red all of a sudden: "The old minister's family affairs are also ...... It's also ......."
Zhao Ji's inspiration came suddenly: "You mean to say, hand it over to the queen, right?" ”
Su You and Sima Guang secretly rolled their eyes together, is it interesting to say it so bluntly?
Queen Xiang is the granddaughter of the prime minister, and there is actually no problem with handing over the inner treasury to her, because the inner treasury does not need to make money, just one in and out of the warehouse, only needs to be careful and patient, and does not need to be brainy.
Foreign officials will be jealous of this when dealing with this, and the queen will personally go out to rectify dozens of internal officials.
Sima Guang and Su You were noncommittal, which was equivalent to acquiescence.
Sima Guang then changed the topic and said: "Your Majesty, this inspection, the situation in Hebei is shocking, and the minister still wants to ask for a foreign appointment. ”
Zhao Ji said: "This ...... Bachelor, not really. ”
Seeing that Sima Guang still wanted to speak, Zhao Ji said: "That's the case, I want the bachelor to be on my side, and reminding the gains and losses is only one of them." Su Song made Liao this time, and the lord of Liao asked why the bachelor was not the middle of the imperial history. Why go abroad? ”
Sima Guang sighed: "Then Hebei, especially Yunzhou in the Suyou plan, needs cadres to serve as Zhizhou transshipment. ”
Zhao Ji sighed: "Talents are rare. ”
Su You arched his hand: "Your Majesty, why don't you invite this county?" ”
Zhao Ji rolled his eyes: "No, it's a matter of urgency for you to quickly take care of the case affairs for me." This has been delayed for another half a year. Yunzhou's appointment, let's discuss it again. ”
In this way, it was not until the evening that Sima Guang and Su You came out.
Sima Guang also regretted: "Tanhualang's cuisine can't be eaten from now on......"
Su You smiled: "Why don't you go to my house now?" ”
Sima Guang said: "There is no reason for this, "Zizhi Tongjian" has been delayed for several months, and the affairs of the bookstore, don't worry if you don't go to see it, you can go back quickly." ”
The two said goodbye, and Su You rode home.
