The Hongzhi Dynasty is full of talents, and the three scholars in the cabinet are all virtuous people, and all of these books are not bad.

The household department, the household department, just manage the treasury finances well, and you don't have to worry too much about other things, but this Zhou Jing is obviously also a person who eats the king's fortune and shares the king's worries.

From the cold weather, combined with the pattern of previous years, it is also bold to infer that this northern Tatar and Warat is very likely to go south.

Zhou Jing's words fell, and the faces of everyone in the court changed greatly, even if it was Emperor Hongzhi, the rebellion of the Southwest Tusi was just a small fight, even if these Tusi were very troublesome, it was just a chaos in the Yunnan-Guizhou region.

But the northern Tatar and Warat are different, there is a Ming Dynasty, the northern Tatar and Warat have not stopped, often will buckle the edge, the most serious time even hit the city of Jingshi, the change of the former civil fort is to capture the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, the captured emperor is the grandfather of the Hongzhi Emperor Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen.

Therefore, for the northern Tatars and Warat, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty did their best to suppress them, Zhu Yuanzhang started with the banner of expelling the Yuan and recovering the Han Dynasty.

"This year's winter is indeed unusually cold, since the Mid-Autumn Festival has been frozen, this Tatar and Warat may be detained again, we should prepare as soon as possible."

Liu Jian stood up and expressed his opinion.

Zhou Jing's words are not nonsense, because in the long-term confrontation with the Tatars and Warats, everyone already knows this and has explored some rules.

The cold weather will not only freeze to death the people of the Ming Dynasty, but also the area where Tatar and Warat are located, if the weather is too cold, there will be more cattle and sheep frozen to death on the grassland, and once the cattle and sheep die too much, the life of Tatar and Warat will be very sad.

At this time, they picked up their sabers, mounted their horses, and naturally looked at the rich neighbors to the south, as long as they could enter the customs and plunder, life would be much better in an instant.

This tradition has a very long history, from the Xiongnu in the Qin and Han dynasties, to the Turks in the Tang Dynasty, and now to the Tatars and Warats, the history of this tradition is thousands of years.

There are times of failure, there are times of success, and there are times when they take the opportunity to occupy the great country of the Central Plains, in short, if there is any problem that cannot be solved, then you can go south and loot it, and naturally all problems will be solved.

"Order all towns on the nine sides to defend strictly, and report any disturbances immediately."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded, thought for a moment and ordered.

This is no way, the farming civilization in the face of the nomadic civilization, in the era of cold weapons has always been in a passive position, because the other party is riding a horse, strong mobility, but they can only build high walls, build the Great Wall for passive defense, other than that, there is no other way.

"This day is freezing, this winter, the people's life is not good, I heard that now the charcoal in the capital has risen to 500 Wen a load, you Aiqing don't know what good way to solve the problem of heating the people?"

"It's only October, and the coldest time hasn't come yet, and if the weather continues to get cold, more people will die by then."

Emperor Hongzhi thought about the fact that because of the cold weather, hundreds of people had frozen to death on the Jingshi side because of the cold weather just mentioned, and he also said worriedly.

"This..."

Hearing Emperor Hongzhi's question, all the ministers were silent, they really didn't know how to answer, and they couldn't think of any good way at all.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it."

Emperor Hongzhi waited for several minutes and no one stood up to answer, and said helplessly, he couldn't think of any good way to come out himself.

"I heard that a big incident happened yesterday in the Moon Tower, I don't know if everyone has heard of it?"

After thinking about it, Emperor Hongji shifted the topic to the Mochizuki Tower.

This Hongzhi Emperor didn't sleep all night last night, thinking about what Liu Jin said, this morning's successive performances can also know that the current Hongzhi Dynasty is not a real song and dance, the life of the common people is still very difficult, the weather is cold, and hundreds of people actually froze to death, this is just in the Beijing Division, how many people froze to death in the entire north, it is estimated that no one can know.

After thinking about it all night, Emperor Hongzhi made up his mind, no matter how far away this Golden Continent is, whether it exists or not, he must find a way to send people to introduce which three high-yield crops to plant back, for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, so that everyone can have enough to eat.

"The ministers have already heard about it, and the three of us discussed this matter together last night."

Liu Jian stood up and said.

"The ministers have heard about it."

The other ministers followed suit.

"Okay, since you've heard about it, let's talk about it, and if you have any feelings or thoughts, you can say whatever you want."

When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he sat up straight and said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, this Liu Jin bewitches the public, deliberately advocates an extralegal and wild place, and belittles my Ming Dynasty, his heart can be punished!"

"Please remove Liu Jin's fame, demote him to a concubine, and never hire him."

As soon as Emperor Hongzhi's words fell, Yushi Jiang Zijun immediately stood up, said with a stern face and sharp words.

If Liu Jin was above the court at this time, it was estimated that he would immediately fight with this imperial historian Jiang Zijun, and he had no grievances with him, but he didn't expect that just a few words on the Moon Tower, he didn't know how to offend him, and he actually wanted to get rid of his reputation, demote to a concubine, and never be hired.

This kind of punishment is tantamount to the heaviest punishment for ancient scholars, which is basically equivalent to ruining all the future, even if you are talented, you don't want to have a bright future in the future.

Tang Bohu, who is famous in history, was demoted to a small official because he was involved in a scientific examination and was never hired, and finally became depressed, but became a famous painter through the ages.

Liu Jin and this imperial history Jiang Zijun must have no enmity, and they don't know each other at all, the reason why this Jiang Zijun is so good is because he is the imperial history, and the imperial history is synonymous with mad dogs in the Ming Dynasty.

The so-called mad dog is that no matter whether it is right or wrong, take a few bites first, and then talk about it, for these new things that Liu Jin said, these imperial history instincts that represent the old forces will bite on it.
