Section 102 Wind and rain

The first tornado begins at the end of the Wanderer

Chongzhen's face was complicated, and without saying a word, he stood up and walked to the window and pushed open the window sill. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

A few foraging birds were frightened and flapped their wings from the glazed tiles on the opposite roof.

The cold wind howled through the warm spring imperial study, and the few leaves on the trees swayed in the wind, and finally fell helplessly, as if to show the current sad status quo of the imperial court.

"Emperor, please pay attention to your body, don't accidentally catch a cold."

Cao Huachun, who was in charge of the entourage today, was Cao Huachun, the governor of Dongchang and the governor of Jingying, and hurriedly stepped forward to close the window.

At the same time, he glanced at Qin Haoming strangely, this kid is so bold that he said that the emperor was sad.

"Cao Daban, I'm fine, I just want to be sober. It's windy here, you're old, and you're sick, so you need to pay attention to your body.

Don't be in a hurry about the leave, first recuperate in the palace.

Time flies so fast, more than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and even you have to leave me! ”

Chongzhen shook his hand sideways, stopped Cao Huachun, who was about to close the window, and said to him with emotion.

Cao Huachun is an old man in the palace of Xinwangfu, who is capable of doing things, and has won the trust and reliance of Emperor Chongzhen.

"When you get old, your body is getting worse and worse, otherwise the old slave will want to serve the emperor for a few more years."

Cao Huachun touched the tears in the corners of his eyes emotionally, and bowed his body backwards as he spoke.

Qin Haoming in the house looked at their master and servant affectionately, and finally understood why Chongzhen was not bad to the eunuchs around him, but he was so mean to the ministers.

Cao Huachun begged for leave due to illness and connected with Emperor Chongzhen three times.

But it wasn't until February of the twelfth year of Chongzhen that he was allowed to take leave and return to his hometown, and Chongzhen must have kept him many times.

"Cao Daban, call Yang Aiqing over!"

Chongzhen thought about it, looked at Qin Haoming, who was sitting quietly in the room, and said to Cao Huachun.

"Cover!"

Cao Huachun saluted with both hands, turned around and left, and ordered the little yellow gate in the palace.

"I will discuss the military with Yang Aiqing later, and let me consider the matter of three salaries.

Aiqing's statement that the land is fertile and barren, and the yield is different, and it is very reasonable, and when the time comes, I will let the household department draw up a list of them.

It's just that the grain donation from the rich squires of the Ming Dynasty will be mentioned again in the future, that is the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, and the court can no longer withstand the turmoil. ”

Chongzhen closed the window, slowly walked in front of Qin Haoming, made a downward motion with his hand, signaling him not to get up, and said while walking around the spacious imperial study.

Don't look at Chongzhen's verbal words, in fact, what Qin Haoming said simply spoke to his heart, but he couldn't implement it, and the heavenly family also had unspeakable things!

On weekdays, the abolition of salt taxes, the reduction of mining taxes, and other decrees that are beneficial to officials and wealthy businessmen at all levels are smooth sailing, but it is difficult to move an inch against the ancestral system if the sea ban can be reopened, increase the commercial tax, and take the lead in donations.

Some people want to secretly bypass the cabinet to issue a central order, but officials in various places have the right to refuse to follow the order, and if they force the order, they can only be repeatedly rejected by the cabinet.

Chongzhen shook his head helplessly, this Ming Dynasty, it's not that he can do whatever he wants?

Qin Haoming looked at Emperor Chongzhen with some sympathy, his face was full of melancholy, Da Ming was really rotten to the bone.

Chongzhen has to deal with the snowflakes like sparse music in various places every day, although there are eunuchs who are the celebrant eunuchs to approve the red and pick out the more important pieces, but there are still endless pieces of music every day.

Officials at all levels embezzled and took bribes, and the military salaries at the front line were wiped out before they left the capital, and there was not much left when they arrived at the front line.

The soldiers at the border pass mutinied several times in a few months, and the generals were full of their own pockets and withheld military salaries to support their families.

Thieves looted everywhere, and there were many people who concealed and did not report to the prefects of various counties......

In fact, it was not his original idea to levy donations from wealthy merchants, and it had been proposed before.

But the cabinet minister's refutation is: This is a statement of chaos in troubled times, and if you dare to show it before the saint, the villain is unscrupulous!

The rich families in the state and county are also the source of food and clothing for the poor. …… As soon as this proposal was proposed, the outlaws and scoundrels took the lead and embarrassed the rich families, and the chaos began from then on.

Qin Haoming was a little strange, could it be that in the eyes of these court ministers, it was not a troubled time now?

Thinking of Chongzhen's words before he died: The king is not the king of the dead country, the minister is the minister of the dead country!

Qin Haoming let out a long sigh!

"Emperor, Master Yang asks to see you."

Cao Huachun at the door opened his mouth.

"Please!"

Chongzhen cleaned up his mood and sat back in the dragon chair with a majestic face.

Yang Sichang walked in gently, glanced at Qin Haoming, turned to Chongzhen on the dragon chair, and meticulously bowed three times in accordance with the Ming Dynasty etiquette.

The corners of the lacquered veil on both sides of the head of the head swayed slightly with the rise and fall of the body.

Chongzhen waited for him to finish the ceremony before he whispered please, how many times did he say that he didn't need to be like this, but Yang Sichang always said that the etiquette could not be abolished, and after a long time, he had to go with him.

For Yang Sichang, Chongzhen is sincerely satisfied.

Not only is he quite agreeable in many things, but he is also intelligent and courageous, unlike ordinary courtiers.

"The commander of the Xuanfu is Qin Haoming, Qin Poyu has seen Yang Benbing."

Yang Sichang was the nominal top boss, and Qin Hao saluted him and reported himself to his home, while carefully looking at the minister in front of him at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

Yang Sichang is dignified and dignified, with fair skin and a long beard under his chin that is very neatly trimmed.

Sandalwood's carefully smoked crimson robe, with two beautifully shaped eyebrows that are clearly groomed, the only flaw is that his eyes are a little narrow, which makes people feel a little feminine.

"Good."

Yang Sichang was just a faint two words, a perfunctory arch of his hand, and there was no follow-up.

I don't know if it's because Qin Haoming is good, or if the battle of Zhaoxian is good.

Hot face sticks to cold ass!

But Lao Tzu doesn't rely on you to eat, anyway, he is already Lu Xiangsheng's person, and the two of them can't go together, what kind of score?

Yang Sichang's arrogant behavior aroused the anger in Qin Haoming's heart, he glanced at him, the corners of his mouth rose upward, and he sat back on the Taishi chair, not looking at Yang Sichang with his eyes.

This scene of the secret battle, the condescending Chongzhen saw it clearly, but he was a little helpless.

There are many factions in the Ming Dynasty, and they are incompatible with each other, framing and slandering each other, they have just begun, and he has long been used to it.

"Qin Aiqing, it's up to you to introduce the specific situation of the battlefield to Master Yang."

Chongzhen commanded lightly towards Qin Haoming.

Although he was a little reluctant, this was a major matter related to the life and death of the officers and soldiers of the Tianxiong Army, Qin Haoming still cheered up and seriously repeated the situation of the enemy and us to Yang Sichang in detail.

"Your Majesty, if a saint moves something, it will be perfect, and it must be done first! The major affairs of the family and the country affect the whole body, and it is even more so!

It must not be changed overnight, so that the ministers below have nothing to do.

Weichen just wants to ask, in the long run, does the emperor want to make peace or want to fight? ”

After listening to Qin Haoming's introduction, Yang Sichang was noncommittal, but just waved his hands and asked Chongzhen.
