Emperor Hongzhi had an expression of "how embarrassing is that", but he became polite.

"Yes, Yan Qing's family will offer silver to fill the treasury, this is a great achievement, pass on my message, and give Yan Qing's family a silver flower belt."

Yan Chengjin's face was dark, and he only got a skin ornament.

Officials in the Ming Dynasty had clear rules that officials wore different belt plates from the first rank to the ninth grade.

The first-grade officials are tied with jade belts, the second-grade officials are bundled with rhinoceros belts, the third-grade officials are bundled with gold belts, the fourth-grade officials are bundled with gold belts, the fifth-grade officials are bundled with silver and iron flower belts, and the sixth-grade and seventh-grade officials are bundled with silver belts.

It's just a piece of jade or gold, pinned to an ordinary belt.

To say the least, it has to weigh half a catty.

Seeing his unhappy look, Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "Could it be that you still want the jade belt?" ”

"Of course I do."

“……”

Emperor Hongzhi was embarrassed in his heart, and he couldn't give Yan Chengjin a promotion and fief, otherwise, what was the difference between this move and buying an official from the imperial court.

Only Yan Chengjin can be given a silver flower belt, which is different from the official uniform, engraved with the pattern of the beast.

Yan Chengjin was so sad that he couldn't speak.

Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "Although 80,000 taels of silver is a lot, it is still okay to replace armor and equipment, and it can be used to expand the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp, I am afraid it is insufficient." ”

Li Dongyang nodded: "If you expand, you have to raise, 80,000 taels of silver looks like a lot, but next year, it will be time for the court to spend silver, where is there still silver in the treasury." ”

The moon sound of Jingying is naturally from the people's taxes, which will increase the people's taxes.

Yan Chengjin was already prepared in his heart: "Actually, the imperial court has always had silver, but His Majesty doesn't know it." ”

I only heard a laugh, but it was Zhang Yanling who leaned into Zhang Heling's ear: "Brother, he said that His Majesty has silver, but Your Majesty doesn't know..."

Emperor Hongzhi was impatient: "Drag them out, twenty court staffs." ”

The Zhang brothers were so frightened that they were dragged out, and after they were dragged out, they gradually quieted down.

Emperor Hongzhi was curious: "Where do you say there is silver in the imperial court?" ”

Yan Chengjin continued: "Ordered Wang Shouren to train the three armies, and Wang Shouren will naturally be able to find out the silver for His Majesty. ”

Emperor Hongzhi sneered: "Wang Shouren is a Xihanlin, how can he train the Beijing camp, and he is a civilian, how to appoint him, this matter is not possible!" ”

"The minister also thinks it's impossible, Yan Chengjin, what nonsense are you talking about!" Liu Jian persuaded.

"The nine sides of the Ming Dynasty, except for the Ningxia iron cavalry guarded by my father, who is brave and good at fighting, the rest of the nine sides have suffered defeats, Wang Gao and others are weak and incompetent, if you want to revive the iron prestige of the border army, you must be Wang Shouren." Yan Chengjin Road.

The soldiers trained by Wang Shouren are powerful.

King Ning planned for ten years, rebelled, and the court did not give Wang Shouren a single soldier, so he temporarily organized an army to destroy King Ning.

It can be seen how godly it is to use soldiers.

It's just that Yangming's reputation for psychology is too big, ignoring that Wang Yangming is a military master, and there is no more suitable person than him in the current government and the opposition except Wang Yue.

The Beijing camp was very strong from the beginning of the Ming Dynasty to the orthodox years, and the Beijing camp at that time could march and fight, daring to go into the desert and behead the Tatars.

Today's Jingying has planted more fields, and he can't even fight.

To stabilize the nine sides, it is necessary to rectify the Beijing camp, and to rectify the Beijing camp, it is necessary to have Wang Shouren.

Emperor Hongzhi fell into deep thought, this son has always been cautious, but today he said such conclusive words.

"What if he can't find the money?"

"I would like to offer a gold medal for avoiding death." Yan Chengjin was calm.

Emperor Hongzhi's old face moved slightly, this brand is still issued by me, what is the use of this broken brand I want you......

Liu Jian shook his head: "It is a fact that the nine sides are weak, but Jingying is the lifeblood of the foundation of the imperial court, how can it be handed over to a Hanlin, although Wang Shouren has done a good job in learning, he is always a fledgling boy." ”

If the people from the military department were there, I am afraid they would not agree.

Yan Chengjin thought for a while: "Then the school review ceremony will be held, and now on the nine sides, the most brave and good at fighting is the Ningxia Guards guarded by my father, each taking 500 elites, and betting that the Beijing Army is better than the Ningxia Guards." ”

"The Jing army is my pro-army, and it is naturally better than the Ningxia border army, so why should I bet with you?"

Li Dongyang and the three of them nodded.

The Beijing army is the backbone of the Ming Dynasty, better than the border army, that is a matter of course.

"The minister thinks that this is not necessarily, Your Majesty does not believe it, it is better to let Wang Shouren find out the silver hidden in the capital camp first?"

Emperor Hongzhi didn't believe that Wang Shouren could find out the silver: "Yes, if he can really find out, I will consider it." ”

Coming out of Fengtian Palace, Yan Chengjin was ready to go down, and Zhu Houzhao also came out of Fengtian Palace.

"Lao Gao, you are so ruthless, even your own father is pitted."

"Your Highnesses are to each other."

"Let Wang Shouren, a big fool, practice the Beijing camp, what are your ideas?" Zhu Houzhao asked with a smile.

Yan Chengjin corrected him and said: "Your Highness, when Wang Shouren is not qualified, he is still very smart, please don't insult people." ”

Zhu Houzhao really couldn't think of where Wang Shouren was smart, but when he thought of competing with Wang Shouren, he bared his teeth and grinned, Wang Shouren's IQ didn't seem to be very stable.

…………

When Wang Shouren received the holy decree, his whole person was stunned.

He came to the Metropolitan Procuratorate from the Yamen of the Criminal Department and found Yan Chengjin: "Old brother, why did you recommend going to Beijing to find silver?" ”

Yan Chengjin was careless: "You said that you set up a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations, but you must seize this opportunity." ”

Wang Shouren shook his head in shame: "But how can I find this silver?" ”

"The situation of Weiyuanwei is no different from that of the Beijing army, what Brother Bo'an sees in Weiyuanwei, you can also see what you can see in the Beijing camp, for one month, you can bet on a gold medal for avoiding death, if Brother Bo'an cares about the gold medal for avoiding death, don't let you down." Yan Chengjin bet his net worth and life on him.

Wang Shouren's face darkened, and after thinking about it, he felt strange, how could the old brother know what he saw in Weiyuan.

In the early dynasties,

Hundreds of officials stood in the court, Emperor Hongzhi sat on the throne, quietly listening to the reports of the ministers, Yan Chengjin was in the pile of people in the imperial history, without saying a word.

Ma Wensheng stepped forward: "Your Majesty, I heard that yesterday, Your Majesty issued a holy decree to go to the Beijing camp to find silver?" ”

Emperor Hongzhi didn't know what kind of virtue Wang Shouren had, so he simply trusted Yan Chengjin, so he asked: "Yan Qingjia, you come to talk about it for me." ”

I saw Yan Chengjin's face as usual: "It's for the military department, and it's also for the household department." ”

The ministers looked surprised, how could they get involved in the household department.

"The minister has a saying, I don't know ......"

"You kid, if you have something to say, say it quickly!" Ma Wensheng is impatient.

Yan Chengjin said honestly: "The military department often uses insufficient military salaries to pay the household department, and the household department does not pay it because the treasury is empty, so the minister asks Wang Shouren to come, just so that he can give birth to this silver out of thin air." ”

Born out of thin air, boy, what are you talking about?

Ma Wensheng's face turned green, and he couldn't wait to stand on Yan Chengjin's head and pee a soak of urine to wake up this kid.

The civil servants laughed out loud as if they were a joke.

Ma Wensheng blushed: "Leave the rest aside for the time being, let me ask you, how to make money out of thin air?" It takes a stone to turn a stone into gold! ”
