After leaving Wusong Port, Wu Zheng went straight to the military academy without stopping.

This is the place he cares about the most, and it is also the place where he needs to stay.

Training, this is what Wu Zheng urgently needs to do.

What made Wu Zheng happy was that the three thousand outstanding ones selected from the recruits had made great progress under the training of 50 people including Chi Erhan and Song An, and had the appearance of becoming an elite.

Wu Zheng's arrival made the soldiers before cheer.

Wu Zheng's identity was revealed, which made the forty-nine people who were personally trained by Wu Zheng extremely excited, and they understood that they really had the possibility of becoming a generation of famous generals.

However, this time, Wu Zheng did not participate in the training of musketeers.

He came here to train the first artillerymen.

One hundred recruits were selected from the other more than 20,000 recruits to form a training camp, and with 10 heavy artillery pieces and 20 mortars sent by Chen Shoujie, Wu Zheng began training the artillery.

。

And at this time, in the Wuying Hall of the Shuntianfu Imperial Palace.

The carefully selected anthracite, accompanied by a red-to-shiny firelight, exudes a sweaty heat.

The inside of the temple and the outside of the temple are like two worlds.

Empress Dowager Bumu Butai and Emperor Fulin's faces were very gloomy.

"Twice I bought firearms, once I was robbed by pirates, once I was intercepted by Wu Zheng, and I even involved the meticulous work that was hard to bury, ladies and gentlemen, are you trying to force the mourning family to death?"

As soon as these words came out, there was a cry of "The ministers are guilty!" ”

Fell to his knees in large areas, except for Dorgon.

Bumu Butai's face did not change for the better because of the accusations of the ministers.

This first silver was for the imperial merchants to "raise donations", and this second silver was pulled out of the forbidden concubines and palaces, among them, her own gold and silver jewelry alone, there were more than 100,000 taels.

I have to say that Bumu Butai does have the consciousness of the master of the world.

But the truth is not what she could have imagined, and the example she made obviously only represents herself or the little emperor Fulin.

The group of courtiers in front of her had no consciousness at all.

Bumu Butai felt a deep disappointment in his heart, and even the blazing charcoal fire could not hide the coldness.

He has subsidized the silver in the palace no less than three times to make up for the shortfall of the state treasury, but in exchange for the collective greed of officials.

Which of the ministers in front of him is not rich in money and has a solid family, but he is unwilling to give a tael of silver.

Think about it, these Hanchens have brought down the Ming Dynasty, do they want to bring down the Qing Dynasty?

Kebumu Butai clearly realized that the Qing Dynasty could not leave these people, otherwise, how could it rule this huge empire with a population of hundreds of thousands?

"Isn't there a way for you to deal with it except to accuse?" Bumu Butai's voice became sharp.

Hong Chengchou finally stood up and said: "The exposure of Chen Hongfan and Sun Zhengqiang made Wu Zheng intercept these firearms, and it is not for me to do it, it is difficult for our dynasty to be the same as the current plan of the Yixing Dynasty's theory, one is that the formation of the new musket army will be temporarily suspended, and it will continue to be implemented after the musket is purchased in the next year." ”

"Nope." Fu Lin screamed in a childish voice, and the voice echoed in the hall, "I will not allow it. ”

Bumu Butai frowned slightly, and then said to Hong Chengchou: "Hong Qing's family continues to talk about the second plan. ”

Hong Chengchou arched his hand towards Fu Lin, and then continued: "Another plan is to negotiate with Wu Zheng to recover the firearms that he intercepted, but in this way, Wu Zheng will definitely open his mouth, and maybe come up with some conditions that our dynasty cannot tolerate." ”

"What will be the conditions?" Fu Lin asked urgently.

Hong Chengchou glanced at the Empress Dowager, then bowed his head and replied, "Silver, land is nothing more." ”

Fu Lin was stunned.

Hong Chengchou explained: "When the armistice agreement was signed, Wu Zheng had the intention of stationing troops in Taixing, and now although it has withdrawn, Taixing has become an unfortified place where both sides do not garrison troops, and Wu Zheng occupies Jingjiang and is eyeing Taixing. ”

Fu Lin said sharply: "I will never exchange land. ”

These words caused Bumu Butai to nod slightly.

Hong Chengchou also bowed slightly: "What the emperor said is extremely true! Then the only way to do that is to use silver. But the problem is that there is no silver in the treasury. There is still more than a month away from spring, and it is farther away from the summer harvest, and the imperial court still has to prepare for the counterinsurgency of the Mongolian tribes after the beginning of spring. ”

At this time, Dolgon, who had been sitting silently, finally spoke.

Dolgon's face was ugly, not because he was angry.

It's because he's sick, and he's a little sick.

In fact, to be precise, his illness has continued since he entered the customs.

The reason is also simple, he has been fighting endlessly, he has shed a lot of blood, and his body has collapsed, plus Dolgon, like his brother Dord, is a famous "lustful prince", so how can this body and bones recover?

"There's nothing to discuss," said Dolgon, "where did the money come from before, and where does it come from now?" ”

Everyone was stunned, and even Bumu Butai's face changed.

Because Dolgon's words could never be directed at himself, and the silver he was referring to before must have meant the silver he had received from the imperial merchants, but people, even unreasonable brutes, would feel embarrassed.

I just scraped a million taels from the imperial merchants, and in less than two months, if I scrape it again, it is better to grab it directly.

Hong Chengchou hesitated and said to Dolgon: "The regent may not know, at this time, if he asks the imperial merchants to borrow silver, even if the imperial merchants agree, the court is afraid that they will not be able to pay it back for a while." ”

Dorgon snorted, "Then don't borrow it." ”

"Ugh." Hong Chengchou was choked back by what he wanted to say, daring to love, what people said was not borrowing, borrowing was to be repaid, take it, then there is no need to pay it back.

How crisp and neat?

But the so-called is not a family, and it does not enter a family.

Hearing Dolgon say this, the little emperor Fulin has always hated his uncle in his heart, but now, he actually agrees, "What the imperial father regent said is extremely true, the court is in trouble, these people who have received the favor of the Qing Dynasty should share the worries of the court, and taking it will always damage the face of the court. I will not treat them badly, but reward them as soon as they become adults. ”

Fulin's opening is equivalent to a final word, not that Fulin's majesty has reached the point of covering the sky with one hand.

But this plan was proposed by Dolgon, and the emperor agreed, so why fight for a ball?

Everyone bowed down and said, "Your ministers obey." ”

Originally, this matter should be dispersed after it was over, but at this time, Hong Chengchou suddenly played: "Emperor Qi, Queen Mother, what was discussed before, the matter of Manchu and Han intermarriage? ”
