Section 292 On the eve of parting

The third volume sailed in the Ming Dynasty

"If the emperor is kind-hearted and unbearable, he will harm them. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info With the Ming here, they can continue to enjoy the glory and wealth after all, if it is ......"

Qin Haoming sighed and didn't say anything further, but the meaning had been expressed very clearly, and there was no need to say more.

At the same time, there was a leisurely yearning in his eyes. Speaking of which, Da Ming is not without understanding people, Sun Chuanting must definitely be counted as one.

Sun Chuanting, whose name is Boya, is a native of Dai County, Shanxi. In the eighth year of Chongzhen, Sun Chuanting was activated, first transferred to the prefect of Shuntian, and the following year he was promoted to the governor of Shaanxi.

Lu Xiangsheng trained in the early days, and Chongzhen was still able to guarantee materials and salaries. When he came to Sun Chuanting, he was poor, and he only gave 100,000 taels of silver at most, and he didn't want anything else.

But Sun Chuanting was very calm, and only made one request to the court: I admit it if I don't give money, but the court doesn't care what I want to do. What Sun Chuanting wants to do is actually two things: raising salaries and training soldiers.

It is especially worth mentioning that most of this fierce Qin soldiers, from salary to food, relied on the military tun developed by Sun Chuanting and the supply of local wealthy families in Shaanxi, and rarely let the imperial court pay, and it was very cost-effective.

It's just that Chongzhen is a pit person,

The most tragic is the late Ming Dynasty, Chongzhen repeatedly urged him to go out of Tongguan and fight a decisive battle with the army of 500,000 kings.

In desperation, he asked the local tyrants to raise money, but the local tyrants were covered by the court, and they didn't take him seriously at all, and gave a few dollars casually, just like calling Hanako.

Before leaving, he feasted the local tyrants represented by Master Gu, who thought that he could send the plague god, and they were all very happy.

Sun Chuanting drank a glass of wine, laughed wildly, and everyone looked at each other, not understanding why Sun Chuanting was so out of shape.

Then he accused Master Gu of privately occupying military land and cheating on taxes, "What crime should I be guilty of?" ”

Master Gu was very good, and he believed that there were people in the court, so he said to Sun Chuanting very horizontally: "What do you want?" What can you do? ”

Sun Chuanting waved his hand: "Good question!" Immediately, a sergeant came up and cut Master Gu's carotid artery with a knife, and blood spurted wildly.

Master Gu fell to the ground and died, and his property was used as military salary.

He has already been released, and he is about to die on the battlefield anyway, so he will kill a few inferior gentry first. He knows the shamelessness of these powerful people, let you donate, you don't donate? You have to let blood to donate, but if he is a vegetarian, can't he really be a vegetarian?

In contrast, Chongzhen is too gentle, in fact, gentleness has also harmed these magnates, and they are secretly happy, but they are waiting for an extremely rough Liu Zongmin.

Those iron roosters who cried poor in front of Chongzhen handed over amazing wealth before the torture of the army.

At that time, between the capital, the sticks flew wildly, the cannons were branded, the eyes were gouged out, and the miserable howls of the Ming officials sounded everywhere in Beijing.

At the same time, many of the rich people in the city were also tortured, and all the salaries and rice of the civilians were looted by the peasant army for military use, and the city was full of starving corpses.

Historical records: After brutal torture, Li Zicheng's army obtained a total of more than 70 million taels of silver, all of which were re-melted and cast by workers into huge square plate-shaped silver plates with holes in the middle, which were later shipped to Xi'an.

And an emperor like Chongzhen, who whispered to his ministers to ask for money, may not be able to find a second one in Chinese history.

In the same way, like the late Ming Dynasty, a group of magnates who did not give the emperor face at all, their strange degree is extremely rare.

"Then what does Qin Aiqing think should be done?"

Xu is Qin Haoming's perseverance and sorrow infected Chongzhen, which made his heart suddenly move, and he asked.

As Qin Haoming said, if the situation of the DPRK is to change, it is natural to choose a direction as a breakthrough.

As the king of a country, Chongzhen is very good at handling government affairs, but he rarely involves conspiracy and trickery.

This is also Chongzhen's weakness, there are not many means and methods, and he can't let the ministers obey him.

"Kill the chicken and the monkey!"

Qin Haoming slowly spit out four words in his mouth, and then said no more.

Chongzhen nodded slowly, and suddenly realized. Even, he already has the right person in mind.

Next, on the occasion of parting, Qin Haoming reported a total of three things to Chongzhen. First, he asked Emperor Chongzhen to grant the governor of Fujian full authority to deal with the affairs of the Ryukyus and the Wa Kingdom.

Second, Dengzhou Wei wants to open a seafood restaurant in the capital, please Chongzhen inscription.

Third, the five provinces of Xuanda were exempted from the collection of three salaries, and at the same time, the five provinces of Xuanda did not pay a penny of food and salary to the imperial court.

Out of trust in Qin Haoming, Chongzhen gave permission one by one.

The twilight is dim, the remnant sun is like blood, and the sky above the capital is like a gold-edged sunset, at this time it is radiant, and the dazzling eye mask is like a dream, so unreal.

A scarlet sunset shone on the western mountain, and large white clouds floated in the clear blue sky, scattering on the two gentlemen and ministers who were chatting enthusiastically.

In the distance, Wang Chengen stood at the gate of the palace like a stake, blocking any palace maids and eunuchs who wanted to approach, and did not let them disturb the conversation between the monarch and the ministers.

"Aiqing's idea is unique, but it is effective, and she is really a good person in governing the country.

It is a pity that there are many parties in the DPRK and China, and most of them are superficial, not based on the right or wrong of things, but on the interests of the parties first, which is really annoying and hateful! ”

A refreshing night breeze blew in his face, Chongzhen seemed to put all his troubles and fatigue aside, and when he talked to Qin Haoming, every tense nerve in his body gradually eased.

Even when it comes to what he hates most about party strife, there is a bit of a breeze.

"The emperor is gifted and heroic, and he is determined to revitalize the country, but in fact the disaster is even more serious.

This is due to the fact that both the leniency and severity of the policy are applied lightly and too harshly, and the way of listening to opinions is too biased.

Governing a big country, if you cook small fresh, it is good, but it is also prioritized.

When the emperor punished the illegal eunuchs and appointed the ministers with lenient power, the ministers were accustomed to this, only arguing about the similarities and differences of opinions, ignoring the preparation of preventive measures.

Jiannu all hit the gate of the capital, but the treasury was empty, who was to blame? Of course, it is the fault of the first assistant and every minister of the DPRK and China!

However, they were helpless and threw all the problems to the emperor, how could this be done by the courtiers?

For his own selfishness, he opposed the imperial court's collection of commercial taxes, but increased the salaries of the local people, so that the local officials could not save themselves, and the people below had no way to recover.

Speaking of which, the imperial court seems to be rich, but Jiannu is still just as powerful, and the scourge of thieves is even more extensive.

In fact, Weichen thinks that Shoufu does not necessarily have to be famous, but it is better to be a person who has the power and courage to do things. ”

The soft sound of the sunset kissing the ground separates day and night. So the pond fish returned to the abyss, the tired birds threw themselves into the forest, Chongzhen and Qin Haoming talked while walking, and returned with the blood flame of the sunset.

The surface of the river wrinkled by the wind rippled layer by layer, refracting the red glow, like a river of red agate, shining brightly.

The small bamboo forest in the distance flashed with green and faint light, gently shaking the bamboo leaves in the breeze, and the wind blowing the rustling sound of the leaves.
