The imperial silver inner money, also known as the imperial money, is the emperor's private money to put it bluntly. Because the money in the treasury is not equivalent to the emperor's personal money, the emperor must first consult with the ministers if he wants to use the money in the treasury.

The imperial silver treasury is completely the emperor's personal money, and no matter how it is spent, there is no need to greet anyone. And passed down from generation to generation, when the new emperor ascended the throne, while continuing the previous emperor's country, even the imperial silver treasury was also inherited, each generation or increase or decrease, generally stored in the inner treasury.

The sources of income for the emperor's inner hall are generally divided into these types.

Huangzhuang, which is unique to the Ming Dynasty, is a royal land, which is taken care of by itself. The emperors of other dynasties also had private land, but they were all transferred out, so it was not called Huangzhuang

Second, the local officials, the heads of ethnic minorities, and the vassal states paid tribute directly to the emperor

The Three Kingdoms Treasury allocates a certain amount of money from the treasury every year, and allocates a certain amount of money to the emperor's inner treasury

The income from the raid of the four confiscating troops is generally charged to the treasury, but the emperor will keep some

Five Imperial Coal Mines, which are also unique to the Ming Dynasty emperors

Sixth, the tax is levied, but this tax is not levied through the imperial court, and everything that passes through the imperial court must go into the treasury, and cannot enter the emperor's private treasury

The emperor would send eunuchs to various places to collect official taxes such as mining taxes, mountain taxes, grave taxes, river taxes, etc., which were not set by the imperial court, which were set by the Wanli Emperor himself.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao's refutation of Chen Yu like this is not unprovoked, after all, I can spend my own money however I want, and I have not used the money from the state treasury.

"Do you remember the name of what I'm going to build?"

Zhu Youxiao saw the hesitant Chen Yu and asked again.

Chen Yu was also a little nervous, "What Your Majesty built is called the Ming Royal Academy of Sciences."

"In this case, Lord Chen also said, the Ming Dynasty, this is a royal matter, not a Ming matter, is Lord Chen still preventing me from building the Academy of Sciences?"

Zhu Youxiao's words solemnly hit Chen Yu.

That's right, I use my own money to do my own business, do I still need to discuss with you, so what else do I want to do in the inner hall, it is better to directly let the treasury allocate funds to me.

"The minister does not dare to stop His Majesty from building this Ming Royal Academy of Sciences, but now it is an eventful time, besides, the Son of Heaven has no selfish wealth, and His Majesty's wealth is declared to be taken from the people, and it should be used for the people, how can it be done for fun. Wouldn't it be better if Your Majesty could make friends with money."

When Zhu Youxiao heard that Chen Yu did not object to him, he still felt a little comfortable. It's just that when Chen Yu finished speaking, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but look at Chen Yu carefully.

"Lord Chen wants me to hand over the property of the internal treasury to the household department to take care of"?

Zhu Youxiao stared at Chen Yu in an unclear tone and asked.

"That's exactly what the minister meant."

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but laugh when he heard Chen Yu answer like this.

"Then where did he come from?"

"When the time comes, it can be directly allocated by the household department for His Majesty's daily expenses", Chen Yu was there.

Until this time, if Zhu Youxiao still didn't know what Chen Yu meant? This emperor doesn't have to be anymore.

"What a drunkard doesn't mean to drink, and he actually took the opportunity of opposing the establishment of the Ming Royal Academy of Sciences to hand over his private property."

Zhu Youxiao sneered in his heart, and at the same time felt cold to everyone in the court.

Zhu Youxiao is particularly important to his inner hall, after all, what the treasury of the Ming Dynasty is like, Zhu Youxiao also knows it well, and he doesn't expect to get money from the household department to train the new army. As for a series of actions in the future, he can only rely on his own internal funds to train a new army that is completely loyal to him as his right-hand man, so as to carry out reforms.

"Lord Chen really deserves to be the head of the officials, but unfortunately he was born in the wrong era, if he can be born in Zhenguan, after all, he can be compared with Wei Zheng and achieve a good story with Tang Taizong."

"With copper as a mirror, you can be dressed; With history as a mirror, we can know the rise and fall; With people as a mirror, you can see the gains and losses. Now that Wei Zheng is gone, I have lost a mirror. This is Tang Taizong Li Shimin's evaluation of his courtier Wei Zheng. This remark is also a good story in later generations, showing Li Shimin's magnanimity and ability to understand people.

But later history did not tell everyone that after Wei Zheng's death, Li Shimin knocked down Wei Zheng's grave, and the marriage between Wei Zheng's son and his daughter was also disrupted.

Speaking of Li Shimin and Wei Zheng, we can't help but think of Ming Jun and Xianchen, indeed, the impression left by these good friends is shrouded in the aura of Ming Shili.

In the 17th year of Zhenguan, Wei Zheng died of illness, and Li Shimin expressed his condolences by not going to work for 5 days, and personally wrote a tombstone for Wei Xianchen, and gave birth to the famous saying that you are my mirror that has been handed down to this day.

Wei Zheng left, and Emperor Taizong was very sad that he lost a mirror. But later he found that although his mirror man was gone, he had left something for him.

Not long after Wei Zheng burned himself for the cause of the Tang Dynasty, Du Zhenglun and Hou Junji, who were promoted during his lifetime, committed crimes one after another. In addition, I don't know what Wei Zheng thinks, he has pasted and copied and printed a copy of the content of his advice to Taizong to the historian Zhu Suiliang many times, and he is puzzled, this operation is really too bad to favor.

Li Shimin was very angry when he knew it, and said that you are a Wei Zheng, I am patient and listen to your education every day, not only do I not give you small shoes to wear, but also very open-minded and generous compare you to my mirror, you are good, you actually dare to hit my children and grandchildren, and plan to collapse the character that Lao Tzu worked hard to stand in the history books!

The so-called emperor was very angry, and the consequences were very serious. So Li Shimin angrily knocked down Wei Zheng's tombstone, and yellowed the marriage contract between Princess Hengshan and Wei Zheng's son.

appreciating the opposite, the love and hatred between Li Shimin and Wei Zheng is just like the feeling that Zhu You is proofreading Chen Yu now.

I thought you really wanted to fight for my Ming career, so I came to persuade me not to indulge in playthings, after all, you don't know the importance of the Ming Royal Academy of Sciences, I can understand this. Fortunately, you turned your gaze to my inner body at last, which is the rhythm of digging my ancestral grave.

However, this point made Zhu Youxiao a little puzzled, I don't know why Chen Yu suddenly made such a statement, and I don't know if he was bewitched by the Eastern Union Party or the Eunuch Party. Guo Yunhou, the head of the household department, can be said to be the only one who has nothing to do with the eunuch party or the Donglin party, and the household department is one of the 6 departments, if anyone on both sides can win the position of the household secretary, it is a major development for their respective strengths.

Although the Donglin Party is the most suspicious, the Eunuch Party headed by Wei Zhongxian is not without suspicion. Although this matter was handled by Wei Zhongxian and Xu Guangqi together, it was completely okay if Wei Zhongxian wanted to pour a basin of cold water on himself, after all, it would not hurt the foundation.

Marx once said, "If there is 100% profit, the capitalists will take risks; If there is a 200% profit, the capitalists will flout the law; If there is a 300% profit, then the capitalists will trample everything in the world!"

For just disgusting yourself, if you can exchange it for a Shangshu position, I believe anyone will do it. And you can also let yourself wonder if it is the people of the Donglin Party who did it. After all, there are many things to pour dirty water on themselves, and the Chinese have never suspected the victims.

"Regarding Lord Chen's proposal to hand over my internal finances to the household department for management, do you have any agreement?"

Zhu Youxiao looked around in a cold tone, as if telling the ministers of the court that Lao Tzu was very angry now.

The ministers of the DPRK and China also heard the dissatisfaction in Zhu Youxiao's tone, and they all made turtles with shrunken heads.

"Where is the book of the household"? Zhu Youxiao saw that everyone did not reply, and directly called Guo Yunhou.

"The minister is here".

"What do you think of the suggestion made by Master Chen?"

"The minister does not agree with Lord Chen's statement, although the Son of Heaven has no selfish wealth, but the household department does not need His Majesty to hand over the internal wealth and property to the household department for management, not to mention that His Majesty personally used the internal treasury as the state some time ago, which has made the old minister speechless to face His Majesty."

Guo Yunhou was also shocked by this huge conspiracy in a cold sweat, and hurriedly expressed his attitude, and at the same time secretly thought in his heart, who wanted to frame him.
