What's the alarm?

In the face of His Majesty Chongzhen, who had quietly adjusted the structure of the inner court, Wei Zhongxian's attitude in replying was obviously a lot more respectful.

"Back to Your Majesty, these urgent matters must be approved by Your Majesty himself."

While bowing and saluting, Wei Zhongxian hurriedly handed over a few copies of the music in his hand.

"It's ......"

Stretching out his hand to take the recital, Zhu Youzhen did not unfold it directly, he looked up at Wei Zhongxian inquiringly.

"Your Majesty, that's ......"

Although he can't read big characters, Wei Zhongxian's memory is really good. The content of several recitals, Wei Zhongxian told the story, talking about the head is the Tao.

Listening to what Wei Zhongxian said, Zhu Youzhen's brows slowly condensed together. After sinking his heart and waiting for Wei Zhongxian to finish speaking, Zhu Youzhen opened the chapter again, combed it carefully, and then twisted his eyebrows and asked, "Wei Daban, is there no other way than to solve it like this?" ”

"This?" Wei Zhongxian was stunned by Zhu Youzhen's question, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. The few pieces he brought were indeed the most urgent tasks at the moment.

The southern Japanese invaders rose again, and the two provinces of Fujian and Guangdong were eroded, and the imperial court urgently needed to issue an order to suppress and appease. The Shuixi Tusi between Sichuan and Yunnan gathered tens of thousands of rebels to attack Guiyang again, and Shuzhong was also shaken again, which also required the determination of the imperial court to suppress it. As for the Shaanxi drought recital, it is the third recital of Shaanxi's request for disaster relief this year; Because the amount of money and food required for disaster relief is too large, it must be approved by His Majesty Chongzhen's royal pen.

These urgent matters are all related to the stability of the Ming Dynasty, and the cabinet has already attached a solution to the yellow post, and he has explained it very clearly.

Your Majesty suddenly asked, what do you mean?

Dissatisfied with the solution that came up?

But this is the surest solution that the cabinet and the celebrant can come up with.

Looking at His Majesty Chongzhen with anticipation, Wei Zhongxian couldn't help but turn over a series of thoughts in his heart.

His Majesty Chongzhen is young, and it seems that such a major military event will need to be explained by the miscellaneous family again.

With a soft voice, Wei Zhongxian was ready to tell the young Majesty Chongzhen about the powerful relationship in this again.

"Wei Daban, I remember that this year's imperial court income is insufficient, and you are forced to collect donations from the courtiers. If this loses a few more land taxes, will the imperial court still operate? ”

Before Wei Zhongxian could speak, Zhu Youzhen's inquiry made him understand that the young Majesty Chongzhen did not understand the reason. At this moment, Wei Zhongxian's words that had not yet been spoken were held in his mouth.

Seeing that Wei Zhongxian was speechless, Zhu Youzhen looked at the chapter, his fingers unconsciously tapped on the table, and his mind fell into contemplation.

Fujian and Guangdong were attacked by the Japanese in the chapter, but the name of the leader of the Japanese Bandits, Zhu Youzhen is very familiar.

Zheng Zhilong, this is also a name that I remember a lot in my previous life. In the history of his previous life, Zheng Zhilong first became a pirate, and then was recruited by the Ming Dynasty, and finally became the strongest man on the Ming Sea as the chief soldier of the Ming Dynasty. Even the Netherlands, Spain and other European colonial powerhouses in the Age of Discovery, when they came to the Ming Sea, they had to listen to his orders and arrangements.

Unfortunately, in the end, Zheng Zhilong was not guaranteed in his later years, and he gave up the Southern Ming and surrendered to the Manchus. Zheng Zhilong's surrender ruined Nanming, but because his son Zheng Chenggong refused to surrender to the Qing, he was finally beheaded by the Manchus in Ningguta. is considered a hero, but he died quite a nest.

Since the so-called Japanese pirate leaders in Fujian and Guangdong are Zheng Zhilong, then they are probably not real Japanese pirates, and nine times out of ten they are the eighteen Zhi pirates formed by Zheng Zhilong, right?

With a grunt in his throat, Zhu Youzhen opened the recital and looked at it carefully, his eyes focused on the yellow of the cabinet.

Fujian and Guangdong were invaded, and the officers and troops suffered setbacks several times. In addition, due to the severe drought in Fujian, the victims were affected everywhere, and in addition to leaving the local taxes in Fujian and Guangdong to suppress the Japanese people, please transfer the Zhejiang tax to provide subsidies.

'Retention, subsidy', Zhu Youzhen's fingers couldn't help but become more urgent.

This piece of music is disposed of in this way, and the music for the rebels of Shuixi Tusi is also to retain the taxes of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan, and also ask for subsidies from Hubei.

These taxes have to be retained and subsidized, coupled with the drought in Shaanxi, the thirteen political envoys of the entire Ming Dynasty, in the blink of an eye, there are 8 provinces whose taxes cannot be collected to Beijing; However, Daming still has to spend a lot more money for disaster relief in Shaanxi.

Coupled with the cost of maintaining the normal operation of the imperial court and the needs of the Liaodong battlefield, how could the Ming treasury still be able to support it?

Zhu Youzhen looked at these reports, and immediately felt a splitting headache.

In this situation, this is to force him to pay money from the inner treasury!

Wei Zhongxian came in a hurry, and Zhu Youzhen finally understood.

"Wei Daban, this Fujian Zheng Zhilong, do you have to exterminate it? Can you recruit An? ”

After thinking for a moment, Zhu Youzhen saw that Wei Zhongxian still didn't mean to speak, so he couldn't help but ask what he thought.

Zheng Zhilong could be recruited in the previous life, and he should be able to do it in this life, right?

"Zhao'an?"

Wei Zhongxian was stunned for a moment when he heard Zhu Youzhen's suggestion, and thought for a moment before cautiously replying: "Back to Your Majesty, it's not impossible to recruit An." But the officials and military of Fujian and Guangdong provinces will be frustrated, even if they want to recruit An Jukou, they need to supplement the combat strength of the officers and troops at the same time? ”

Oh, yes!

Zhu Youzhen sighed secretly in his heart.

What Wei Zhongxian said was very reasonable. Even if you want to recruit Zheng Zhilong, you must supplement the official army of the Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, even if Zheng Zhilong agrees to recruit An, then Zhao'an is just a name, how can Zheng Zhilong be restricted.

That's it.

Zhu Youzhen's fingers froze, and he made a decision in his heart.

These few things can only be done according to the arrangements of the cabinet first.

Picking up the Zhu pen and preparing to reply, Zhu Youzhen suddenly asked Wei Zhongxian again: "Wei Daban, how much silver is still in my inner treasury?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, there are only 4.8 million taels of silver in the inner treasury."

Wei Zhongxian knew Zhu Youzhen's question, and he answered it casually with a little pride.

There are only 4.8 million taels.

Hearing this number, Zhu Youzhen sighed heavily again in his heart.

4.8 million taels sounds like a lot, but Wei Zhongxian scavenged it from everywhere, and these are really not normal incomes.

What's more, although Zhu Youzhen doesn't know the specific budget and expenses of the Ming Imperial Court, there is one thing that Zhu Youzhen knows very well that 4.8 million taels is definitely far from enough for the current Ming Dynasty.

With a sigh, Zhu Youzhen still picked up the pen and approved the word 'can' on each chapter.

Although he knew that as soon as this imperial pen Zhu batch fell, Daming's income would be reduced by half immediately, but Zhu Youzhen couldn't find any other way for a while. This military disaster and natural disasters are coming, and he can only deal with the past first.

Watching Wei Zhongxian put away the piece and leave in a hurry, Zhu Youzhen was not in the mood to continue making models for a while.

Wei Zhongxian didn't know, but Zhu Youzhen knew it clearly. According to the history of the previous life, the Ming Dynasty is about to enter an era of annual famine. To remember the history of the previous life correctly, since Chongzhen ascended the throne, the Ming Dynasty has entered a period of natural disasters. It is precisely because of the continuous natural disasters such as drought, locusts, floods, and plagues that the peasant uprisings for many years were caused, and the Ming Dynasty was finally buried.

However, in the previous life, Chongzhen ascended the throne in the seventh year of the Apocalypse, and in this life, it is only the sixth year of the Apocalypse. Could it be that history has changed, and this natural disaster has also been advanced?

Shaanxi is in a great drought, and displaced people are everywhere.

Thinking of these words played on the recital, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but feel excited.

The peasant uprising that destroyed the Ming Dynasty in the previous life originated in Shaanxi. This life isn't going to start now, is it?

"High dive?" Zhu Youzhen shouted: "You immediately keep an eye on Shaanxi." I want to know what the people of Shaanxi are like now. ”
