Chapter 197: Knowing Mistakes and Not Admitting Mistakes
Compared to last year's easy pilgrimage, this year's final pilgrimage seems to be a little heavier!
The matter of Wu Guogong's body of Wan Buhai has become a lingering cloud that gathers above the heads of Li Zheng and the Manchu Dynasty.
A few days ago, there were many good news, in line with the fact that he would be able to recover all the territory of Heshuo and Shuo in April of the next year, how could he have imagined that the body of Wuguo Gong Wan Buhai had encountered an unprecedented crisis!
"Jiusi Aiqing, do you have a plan to play?"
"Back to Your Majesty, the Chenhonglu Temple has a book to play!"
"Quasi-play!"
"Your Majesty, the Governor of An with Western envoys and countless Western merchants returned with their fleets, and the end of the voyage again a few days ago, according to the Honglu Temple, during the period when the Western merchants were in Beijing, they provided more than two three hundred and twenty-five thousand six hundred taels of silver for the household department!"
"Now there are officers and soldiers guarding the treasury of Honglu Temple, and they can be handed over to the treasury at any time!"
Li Zheng finally had a smile on his face, and gently stroked his beard: "But after deducting the expenses for supplying Western envoys, there are silver taels left!" ”
"Your Majesty, exactly!"
"Okay, after the dispersal of the dynasty, Jiang Aiqing will jointly accept the silver taels with you and hand them over to the treasury!"
"Obey the order!"
"Stand down!"
"Your Majesty, the ministers and the agricultural division have a book to play!"
"Quasi-play!"
"Although the sweet potato is highly productive, it has always been incomparable to the refined grain, and the people of the five prefectures and twelve states around the capital are now enthusiastic about planting sweet potatoes, so they ignore the cultivation of wheat and other refined grains, and the things that pay taxes are all sweet potatoes, and the minister has submitted the excerpt to the household department!"
"Hubu, can this matter be dealt with?"
"Back to Your Majesty, the minister has already made a plan, ready to order that the surrounding prefectures and counties must reduce the number of acres of sweet potatoes planted in the coming year, and this year's sweet potatoes have been transported to the states and counties where there is a shortage of food to exchange fine grains, and the losses on the way are almost negligible!"
"Although the sweet potato is highly productive, it has never been able to compare with the refined grain, I hope that Your Majesty will make a holy decree, so that all the state capitals of Dalong where sweet potatoes are planted will re-measure the land, and the imperial court will decide the number of acres to be planted according to the treasury revenue!"
"Otherwise, once you cultivate a lot, it will not necessarily be a good thing!"
Li Zheng was silent for a moment and bowed slightly: "This matter is fully handled by the household department, I only look at the final result!" ”
"The minister obeys the order, and after the dispersal of the court, the minister will draw up a recital and hand it over to His Majesty for his majesty's view!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any twists and turns to play?"
Liu Mingzhi opened his eyes and glanced at the civil and military officials, no one came out again, and finally slowly took out the fold from his sleeve and stood up!
"Back to my father, my son Liu Mingzhi has a plan to play!"
"Quasi-play!"
"Father, there are too many twists and turns, and it takes time for the sons and daughters to speak one by one, so it's better to ask the father to see it in person!"
Li Zheng raised his eyebrows, glanced at the thick fold in Liu Mingzhi's hand and gave the chief manager a look: "Present the fold of Dingguo Gong!" ”
"Yes!"
The chief manager walked down the steps and took over the folds in Liu Mingzhi's hand, and he was also a little surprised, the twists and turns in Liu Mingzhi's hand were a few points more than all the folds in the Manchu Dynasty and the civil and military forces combined!
With a light smile, he signaled the chief manager twice and walked back to the place with Liu Mingzhi's recital, and respectfully sent it to Li Zheng's hands!
Li Zheng took the fold and looked at it gently!
After only reading two pages, Li Zheng's indifferent eyes shrank a little, and he suddenly closed the fold and stared at Liu Mingzhi tightly!
"Liu Aiqing, when you go to the north to serve as the governor of the two provinces, you can lead the rank of squire of the military department! Who allowed you to meddle in the affairs of the Ministry of War without my permission? Meddling in the matter of the beard of the fallen soldiers? Do you want to bully the king? ”
The Manchu Dynasty Wenwu looked at Li Zheng with an angry face in astonishment, and Liu Mingzhi, the Duke of Dingguo who stood in the middle with the same face, secretly guessed in their hearts!
Listening to the meaning of His Majesty's words, could it be that Dingguo Gong interfered in the affairs of the Ministry of War without authorization?
This is an overstep, it inevitably has some tyrannical meaning, no wonder Your Majesty is so angry!
Imperial Doctor Xia Gongming hesitated for a moment and walked out: "Your Majesty, the old minister dared to ask, did Dingguo Gong really meddle in the affairs of the military department?" ”
Li Zheng suddenly turned his gaze to Xia Gongming: "What about the Great Dragon Law?" Isn't it? ”
Xia Gongming sighed slowly, and his face became a little upright!
"Yes, it's overdone! As the left squire of the household department, he meddled in the affairs of the military department, overbearing and overbearing ignoring the law, the official was demoted to three levels, fined for three years, and thought about it for three months. ”
Li Zheng clenched the fold in his hand tightly and turned his gaze to Liu Mingzhi: "Dingguo Gong, what do you justify?" You heard what Dr. Goshi said! ”
Liu Mingzhi took a deep breath and looked at Li Zheng's questioning eyes calmly!
"Soldiers use their lives, the king cares, soldiers die in battle without worries, and the king is sympathetic to the difficulties of soldiers!"
"Army, armor is complete; food, grain and grass are endless; Fight, move forward bravely, die, no worries, can be ........."
"Hundred-Victory-of-Army!"
"Erchen has the courage to ask His Majesty to finish the Erchen's performance!"
Li Zheng looked at Liu Mingzhi's calm face, withdrew his gaze suspiciously, and continued to look at the folds in his hand in the curious eyes of the civil and military officials!
In just a stick of incense, Li Zheng's face can be described as complex and changeable, and he looked at the civil and military officials in shock.
They were all curious about what the content of the fold was, and it could make His Majesty, who was a master of the crowd, look so complicated!
Song Yu, old Jiang Qiliang and the others looked at Liu Mingzhi with worried faces, they really didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in his gourd?
is more worried about the content of Liu Mingzhi's recital, for fear that Liu Mingzhi will say something rebellious for a while, so there is really no way to plead!
Li Zheng slowly put together the folds, looked at Liu Mingzhi, who was looking at him without dodging, and slowly sighed!
Glancing at the civil and military officials, he finally fell on the crown prince Li Baiyu!
Liu Mingzhi returned from the western expedition and taught Li Baiyu's words to come to mind!
"Suspicion is the biggest taboo in the relationship between monarchs and ministers, knowing people and making good use of them, using people, and using good talents is something that a monarch should do!"
"Throughout the dynasties, most of the kings forced the ministers to rebel, and the ministers had to rebel, once a courtier had a rebellion, the monarch must first introspect himself!"
"Father, this is the minister's marshal tiger talisman!"
"Father, you are too dark, you don't give any money and want to take advantage of your son's ministers, in order to get this artillery, the ministers are bankrupt!"
"Father, give a 300,000 taels of silver for the carriage and horses, and don't give some silver to give some wine and singers to let the sons and daughters have fun!"
"Father, the son only has a parting word, I hope my father will take care of the dragon body!"
Li Zheng trembled slightly, threw the fold on the dragon case, looked at Liu Mingzhi, his eyes with a hint of regret, slowly closed his eyes, Li Zheng clenched his fists tightly, and his heart was indescribable!
"What is wrong with me? Old? What about the model of the Ming monarch when he taught the crown prince? Now I'm guilty of this little mistake myself! ”
"Liu Mingzhi, I'm ashamed of you. But I can't admit that I am wrong, I am the Son of Heaven and a king! I know it's wrong, but I can't say it's wrong! ”
Slowly opened his eyes, Li Zheng's face was smiling: "Liu Mingzhi, what is played above the fold is approved, and it will be handed over to the Household Department and the Joint Military Department with the permission of the national treasury!" ”
Liu Mingzhi's body softened and he breathed a sigh of relief gently: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”
"Officials."
"The minister is here!"
"Song Yu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, will be fined for half a year!"
"Liu Mingzhi, the Duke of Dingguo, removed him from the post of General of the Auxiliary State of Yingzhou."
"Ahh Obey the order! ”
"I am not feeling well, and the rest of the court affairs will be handed over to the prince to continue, and you will circulate it once, and if you have different opinions, report it to the prince, and I will deal with it later!"
"Your Ministers obey!"
"Sons obey orders!"
"Liu Aiqing, you come to the imperial study with me, I have something to say to you."
