Emperor Hongzhi went down to the early dynasty, and the whole person felt a little bored.

Although the proposal to form a fleet to go to the Golden Continent had been approved this morning, the cost was as expected by Emperor Hongzhi himself, and in the end there was still his own pocket.

Although Emperor Hongzhi originally wanted to take out this money from his own internal funds, it was just that the ministers above the court, whether it was the three cabinet elders, or the six Shangshu, or other large and small officials, almost all of them were staring at their own internal funds, and as for the money in the treasury, it was not a penny that could not be moved.

Although Emperor Hongzhi is the emperor and claims to have the world, he is actually very poor, and he does not have much silver taels, and the inner money of Emperor Hongzhi is only about one million taels of silver.

This is still what he has saved for more than ten years, and he has finally accumulated, his cheap father Ming Xianzong was a confused emperor back then, and he was also a loser, not only spending the money of the treasury, but also spending the internal money, and did not leave much silver taels for Emperor Hongzhi at all.

Emperor Hongzhi was frugal, and finally accumulated a million taels of silver, and the ministers above the court kept an eye on them every day, and always asked Emperor Hongzhi to take out his own internal money again and again.

Originally, this trip to the Golden Continent was a major event for the entire imperial court, and it stands to reason that this money should come from the treasury, but today, almost all the ministers in the court did not mean to be polite to Emperor Hongzhi, and asked Emperor Hongzhi to come up with this money from the inside.

This made Emperor Hongzhi very depressed.

"Your Majesty, are you still angry that the money for the formation of the fleet came out of the treasury?"

Xiao Jing saw Emperor Hongzhi's thoughts, and also comforted again and again: "This Golden Continent is full of gold, and this fleet will definitely be able to reap a bumper harvest when it goes to the Golden Continent." ”

"The princes above the court have said that this money is from His Majesty's internal funds, and there will be income in the future, and this is also His Majesty's internal funds, and when the fleet comes back and brings back a large amount of gold, they will definitely regret it."

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Xiao Jing and smiled and said, "I'm not angry about this, I originally planned to withdraw this money from the inside." ”

"What I am worried about is these imperial historians above the court, these people don't do things themselves, and they don't let others do things, no matter whether they are right or wrong, they have to oppose it, which seriously affects the country's major affairs."

"What is the specific situation of this Golden Continent, let's not talk about it for the time being, if these three high-yield crops really exist, how important this is to Daming, that Jiang Zijun obviously knows this."

"But he is desperate to oppose it, and this kind of thing is not once or twice, and you have heard that he is talking about me in the court today."

"Saying that I am a merchant and Emperor Yang of Sui, I am so happy that I don't care about the life and death of the people of Li..."

When he said this, Emperor Hongzhi's whole face turned red with anger, and he really wanted to kill that Jiang Zijun with one sword.

"Since I succeeded the unification, I have been conscientious, I dare not slack off, diligent and loving the people, light on meager endowments, diligent and thrifty, I am not even willing to repair the garden, even the queen is also suffering from hardships, and the clothes are torn and repaired."

"I thought that I should be a qualified emperor, and I never wanted to be so insulted by him Jiang Zijun."

The more Emperor Hongzhi talked, the more angry he became, he really wanted to kill Jiang Zijun, but he was a good person and had a very kind heart, even if he was a former mortal enemy, he didn't kill him, let alone a Jiang Zijun.

"Your Majesty's merits and demerits are not up to him Jiang Zijun, Your Majesty's great achievements are obvious to all, and the ancestors of the Tang Dynasty and Song Dynasty are also far from each other."

Xiao Jing hurriedly comforted Emperor Hongzhi, he knew that Emperor Hongzhi was really angry today, otherwise he wouldn't have said much.

"Whether it is the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty, or the Tang Dynasty and Song Ancestors, I have never thought of comparing with them, all I think about is to be worthy of the people of the world and the foundation of the ancestors."

After listening to Xiao Jing's words, Emperor Hongzhi was in a much better mood, half of his anger was gone, and there was a smile on his face.

"Your Majesty, cabinet scholars Liu Jian, Xie Qian, and Li Dongyang ask to see you."

At this time, a little eunuch came over and said.

"Xuan~"

Emperor Hongzhi was a hard-working emperor, and after the early court meetings, he would usually continue to summon some important ministers to continue to discuss state affairs, which had almost become a habit.

Therefore, at the end of the early dynasty, there was no need for Emperor Hongzhi's dictation, and the three cabinet ministers would also come together, and sometimes, Emperor Hongzhi would also announce the six books and other important ministers to discuss state affairs.

Soon, Liu Jian, Xie Qian, and Li Dongyang, three cabinet ministers, came to the Qianqing Palace where Emperor Hongzhi lived and worked.

In the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Hongzhi, Liu Jian, Xie Qian, and Li Dongyang sat together as before, drinking tea and discussing the things mentioned above.

"The problem of toast in the southwest has been repeated repeatedly, and after a few years of calming down, it has begun to rise again, and there has never been a way to truly solve the problem of toast in the southwest."

"I don't know what good plan the three Aiqing have to solve the problem of this southwest toast once and for all?"

Thinking of the matter of the Shuixi Tusi rebellion mentioned by Ma Wensheng, the secretary of the military department of the early dynasty, Emperor Hongzhi also seemed worried, this southwest Tusi rebellion has happened many times, almost every year, large and small, and when it is serious, it spreads to the southwestern provinces, becoming a disease that can never be cured, and it continues to recur.

"The problem of the Southwest Tusi has a long history, from the Three Kingdoms period when Zhuge Qi captured Meng Shu until now, the problem of the Southwest Tusi has not subsided."

"Fundamentally speaking, it is mainly because of the southwest region, the mountains and rivers are far away, the mountains and rivers are treacherous, the traffic is active and inconvenient, and the Han people in the southwest region are scarce, and the soil is not educated, so when there is a benefit, they will be obedient, and once there is no benefit, they will immediately make trouble again."

"It is very inconvenient for the imperial court to send troops to exterminate it, and it costs money and food in vain, which is really a stubborn disease and difficult to cure."

Liu Jian pondered for a while, and slowly shook his head helplessly.

This problem of Southwest Toast is not a day or two, once or twice, it has a very long history, and there has been no way to say that the problem of Southwest Toast has been truly solved.

Although the three elders are also virtuous people, but in the face of the problem of the southwest Tusi, there has always been no good way, can only continue to use the old method of the past, suppress and appease, on the one hand, use force to suppress the Tusi rebellion, on the other hand, it is also to try to adopt the policy of Huai Rou, but this method has always been to stop the boiling, has no substantive effect.
