This was too serious, so serious that even Wen Tiren and Cao Huachun, who did not speak, had to kneel down with Zhou Yanru and the others.

Hu Guang was indeed a little angry in his heart, you must know that the Ming Dynasty at this time was not weak and difficult to return, and it was not the background of being surrounded by foreign powers and needing to seek international assistance.

On the contrary, at this time, the Ming Dynasty was still the most powerful country in the world, at least in Asia at this time. It's just that at this time, during the Xiaoice period, the most basic grain production was greatly reduced, which seriously affected the strength of the Ming Empire, and the foundation was unstable.

If what the imperial court did was not aimed at solving this matter, then it would be like history, and the people of the Ming Dynasty would live in water and fire, thus shaking the foundation of the Ming Empire.

Hu Guang stared at Zhou Yanru and the others fiercely, and after a long while, his heart slowly calmed down. There is no way, these are all Confucianism for many years, and their thoughts have been imprisoned by the practices of previous dynasties, unlike themselves, they know how cruel the relationship between countries is, and how serious the lessons of later generations in this regard can be understood by ordinary people.

Thinking of this, Hu Guang's tone softened a little, otherwise he would not be able to discuss things in a rage: "Get up!" The most important thing of the imperial court is to solve the national economy and people's livelihood of the Ming Dynasty, and to solve the problem of food, clothing, and peace and contentment for the people of the Ming Dynasty. Do you know? ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!" No matter what these courtiers thought in their hearts, when they came to this, they had to respond in unison.

"Ding, achievement +1, from Eunuch A!"

"Ding, achievement value +1, from Palace Maiden B!"

“……”

Hearing the system prompt, Hu Guang knew in his heart that Zhou Yanru and Cheng Jiming didn't listen to his words much, because the two of them should still have achievement points to contribute, but they didn't contribute.

He remained silent, watched them all stand up, and then ordered: "This matter is so decided, pass the decree to Honglu Temple, arrange it immediately, after all, the road is far away, understand?" ”

"Obey the Holy Command!" Wen Tiren did not hesitate and immediately replied.

Hu Guang nodded, thought for a while, and said: "At present, I don't have a count of the grain output of Southeast Asian countries, and I believe you will not know. Therefore, the amount of tributary grain required by each country can be confirmed by merchants and others after arriving in the border area. Remember, our goal is to get enough food. We can't let countries pay food, and we can't just let countries pay a little bit of food. ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Wen Tiren agreed again, Zhou Yanru and Cheng Jiming didn't dare to speak anymore, just hung their heads and kept silent. I was also a little surprised in my heart, the emperor thought about it carefully, and it seemed that he had thought about it a long time ago.

They naturally didn't know that the emperor of this matter was no longer the original Emperor Chongzhen who was ignorant of the world and had no experience, and there were some important details that Hu Guang, who came over in later generations, could naturally think of it.

Speaking of this, Hu Guang asked them to handle it, leaving only Cao Huachun and explaining to him: "Big companion, I am a little worried that the people below have problems with the matter, and the East Factory must secretly supervise it in place, understand?" ”

"Your Majesty, the slave and maid will definitely send capable people to go." Cao Huachun heard this, and immediately bowed down and replied.

Hu Guang nodded and continued: "I will designate someone for you, so that if you find a problem, both Dayou and I can know it at the first time, only so quickly can we make this matter practical and try not to disturb the people." ”

When Cao Huachun heard this, he immediately reacted, the emperor wanted someone in the chat group to give him, so if there was something to do, as long as he told him in the chat group, the Jingshi thousands of miles away would know immediately. Your Majesty owns this chat group, which is really a big killer!

Thinking so, Cao Huachun hurriedly responded: "The slave obeys!" ”

Hu Guang thought about it for a while, looked at the palace maids standing left and right, and said in a faint voice: "Today's discussion in the Wenhua Palace, you can spread the word to the outside world, and let the people outside know!" ”

As soon as they heard this, they remembered the emperor's strict order before, and suddenly, these palace maids thought that the emperor was talking back, so they were so frightened that they knelt on the ground one by one, lowered their heads and said: "Slaves don't dare!" ”

However, Cao Huachun, after a moment of pause, immediately reacted, and immediately shouted to the people kneeling on the ground: "This is Your Majesty's will, if you don't dare, just do it!" ”

After finishing speaking, he showed a hint of admiration on his face and said to Hu Guang: "The slave will teach them what to say." ”

Hu Guang listened and nodded with satisfaction, the eunuchs who can mix with the eunuch position are not stupid. Others may not know the weapon of public opinion, but as a later generation, he knows very well how important public opinion is.

By the way, there is also the thing of the Slave Chief Emperor Taiji, who also tried to lower the morale of the defenders at the head of the city by fighting cannons before the siege, which is actually a kind of public opinion warfare. And if you encourage morale, you can also be regarded as a kind of control of public opinion. It seems that we have not paid enough attention to public opinion, and we must still pay attention to it, and we must set up special departments and personnel who can absolutely obey ourselves to control public opinion.

Hu Guang thought so, kept this matter in his heart, and thought about it when he got back, or decided after discussing it with a few confidants.

Thinking of this, he put this matter aside first, and then worried about the matter of money and food again: "Cao Daban, how is Chen Baihu's injury?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Chen Baihu's hands are useless, and the other injuries are not serious, just need time to recuperate." Cao Huachun replied immediately.

This person is very important, so he is not taken care of by ordinary injured soldiers, but by the people of Dongchang, and the treatment conditions he enjoys are naturally different.

After hearing this, Hu Guang immediately asked: "The shopkeeper of the Yongchang ticket number, still refuses to confess?" ”

"The slave is incompetent, please punish Your Majesty!" Cao Huachun was worried that the emperor would ask about this, but now that he heard it, he hurriedly asked for sin.

People like this who don't open their mouths, although Dongchang doesn't encounter many people, they can occasionally meet them. This time it was really unlucky, I just met a hard-mouthed person, who happened to be someone the emperor cared about.

After Cao Huachun pleaded guilty, he hurriedly explained: "Your Majesty, this kind of person who doesn't open his mouth when he dies is generally either lucky, knowing that if he doesn't open his mouth, he will have a chance to live, or he is a person who is determined to be determined in his heart and is not even afraid of death." ”

Hu Guang frowned, and was about to say something when he suddenly heard a commotion outside, as if someone was cheering.

Could it be that Jianyu has withdrawn from the army? Hu Guang thought of this at the first thought, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart.
