The third volume sailed in the Ming Dynasty

The Ming treasury is no longer enough to describe its miserable situation, and it is only appropriate to use poverty as if it were poor. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The erector doesn't know the financial truth, and he wants to cancel the training salary, which is more than 7 million!

In a few million more, it doesn't feel like it's too much, but a few million less makes Xue Guoguan feel like the sky is falling, so how can he, the first assistant, be the first assistant?

Therefore, before Chongzhen could reply, he immediately stood up to refute.

"Xue Shoufu said well, watch and help each other, have money to contribute, and have the strength to contribute. Now the rich businessmen in Jiangnan do not know how many, and at this time when the state affairs are difficult, it is the time for them to contribute to the country.

As for the cancellation of the salary, Lord Xue can't be the first assistant, and it is inconvenient for the lower officials to judge, everything is decided by the emperor.

However, as the first minister, you can't share the worries of the Son of Heaven, and the lower officials really don't know what kind of face you have to stand at the head of the hundred officials? ”

As soon as Xue Guoguan finished speaking, Qin Haoming seized the opportunity to be bitter and immediately pushed over, and then turned to Emperor Chongzhen and said:

"Weichen's fourth suggestion is to implore the emperor to levy a commercial tax to make up for the lack of salary. And Wechen promised that the commercial tax must be more than the sum of the three salaries, so that the treasury will be full. ”

One stone stirs up a thousand waves, and a few words play ten thousand sounds.

The courtiers didn't expect Qin Haoming to be so bold, and as a stunned young man who was in the court for the first time, he questioned his ability to be the first assistant in front of Xue Guoguan, which was really surprising.

As for the imposition of commercial taxes, although it is unacceptable to the courtiers, there have been people in the past who say that it is not a new idea, but it is just not as high as Qin Haoming's official position.

"Emperor, Governor Qin wantonly attacked Xue Shoufu in front of the Chinese military forces of the dynasty, and the following offenders, I implore him to be taken down and dealt with strictly, so as to set an example!"

Jia Renchu, a member of the criminal department, was indignant and said loudly.

"The ministers seconded it!"

More than ten people, including Hu Nailong and Du Yushi Xiong Mingyu, also stood up and said one after another.

Xue Guoguan had a dark face and looked up in a sad and indignant manner. At this time, Chongzhen didn't ask him, and it was inconvenient to defend himself.

Seeing this situation, Lu Xiangsheng and Yang Tinglin glanced at Qin Haoming anxiously, and waited to speak for him.

"Your Majesty, Weichen is just talking about things, what is the crime?

When did the imperial court become a hall of words, and there was no room for dissenting opinions?

Otherwise, why did you swarm to ask the minister, but did you not say anything about the suggestion made by the minister?

When Weichen went to the court for the first time, he saw that the adults were prevaricating and flattening, and when they didn't agree with each other, they attacked in groups. Who has dared to offer advice in the long run?

Not to mention anything else, at first, the questions raised by Lord Wu and Lord Shen were related to the country's social affairs, but the adults had no suggestions at all.

However, when Wei Chen talked about Xue Shoufu, he couldn't wait to jump out and accuse him, isn't it chilling to do what he did? ”

Qin Haoming quickly spoke out when Lu Xiangsheng wanted to come out. Chongzhen is obviously biased towards himself, so Qin Haoming's voice is justified and amazing!

"I implore the emperor to make the decision for Weichen!"

Qin Haoming's words were sharp, and he bluntly said that the ministers had no room for others, and could not tolerate other voices, and even faintly accused Xue Guoguan of forming a party for personal gain.

As the first assistant, Xue Guoguan had no argument, and simply knelt down to play the sad card towards Chongzhen.

And he stood up to accuse Qin Haoming's other henchmen, kneeling to form a party for personal gain, and not kneeling didn't seem to be the case, which was quite embarrassing.

Qin Haoming's performance made the ministers look sideways frequently, and they all thought to themselves, this son is not only a good hand at leading the troops to fight, but he is not inferior to the court fight, and the first assistant of the hall has nothing to say to him.

What's more, even the prince of the country and the people of the Restoration Society also respect him, so that his reputation in the mouth of the people has skyrocketed, and he must be careful in the future.

"Lord Xue, please get up, as Qin Aiqing said, just talk about things, don't worry too much."

Above the court, Chongzhen was not shocked on the surface, and pretended to speak calmly.

In fact, he was very disappointed in Xue Guoguan in his heart, and the first assistant of a country was refuted by the young officials who went to the court for the first time and had nothing to say, so he wanted to take refuge in him and beg him to be the master.

This has to be preached, how can people be embarrassed?

On the other hand, Chongzhen's peaceful voice of Lord Xue fell into Xue Guoguan's ears, which was tantamount to a thunderstorm in the nine heavens, which shocked him almost to the ground, and he understood that his career as a first assistant had come to an end.

In recent years, the Son of Heaven has called him Xue Aiqing or Xue Shoufu, why has he ever called him Lord Xue?

is obviously disgusted with his performance today, and the emperor's heart is no more!

"Thank you for your grace! Weichen suddenly felt that he was ill, and begged him to go back to his house to rest, hoping for grace. ”

"The imperial doctor will follow Lord Xue back to the house for diagnosis!"

Chongzhen sighed in his heart, but the matter on the face was still more thoughtful.

Xue Guoguan's face was discouraged, he reluctantly struggled to stand up, and after saluting, he turned around and left the court.

The lonely and slightly sad back made the courtiers feel mixed, and no one said anything. Everyone understands that with this departure, Xue Guoguan can no longer stand at the head of a hundred officials.

The sunlight shone through the glazed tiles on the palace and threw on Qin Haoming's crimson official robe, shaking the courtiers in a daze.

After this incident, Jian Zai's heart is no longer enough to describe Qin Haoming's position in Chongzhen's heart, looking at their tacit understanding, it may be more appropriate to use monarchs and ministers to complement each other.

At the same time, how to get along with this son in the future has also become a matter of consideration in their hearts. Especially some low-grade officials, their hearts are even hotter.

People in officialdom are the most snobbish. In their eyes, there are only gains and losses in their eyes, and it is their consistent criterion to go high and step low.

Qin Haoming's rise was too fast, so fast that they were caught off guard, and there was almost no time to react.

But what surprised them even more was Chongzhen's attitude towards him, being in the border of Xuanda, not showing mountains and waters, and not much contact time with the Son of Heaven, why did the Heavenly Family attach importance to him?

The dignified Ming Shoufu, who has been in office for less than a year, is a little incompetent, a little greedy, and likes to accept bribes.

But after all, it was personally selected by the Heavenly Family, and because Qin Haoming fell out of favor, the revealed information in this made the courtiers tremble.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any objections to levying commercial taxes to make up for the lack of salary?"

Just as the courtiers pondered the mystery of this, Chongzhen's peaceful voice resounded through the palace again.

What awaits Chongzhen is a longer silence.

"Zhang Shilang, Xue Shoufu is not here, and you are the most official in the current palace, talk about your thoughts?"

The corners of Chongzhen's mouth raised, and he asked Zhang Sizhi, the leader of the Qi Party.

"Your Majesty, the matter of levying commercial taxes is related to the stability of the Ming Dynasty and has not been discussed by the cabinet, and it is difficult for Weichen to make a decision for a while."

The first assistant was not there, the second assistant Chen Yan was in prison, and Zhang Sizhi, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, replied tactfully, trying to get through in vain.

He is a native of Fei County, Shandong, a member of the Cabinet and a member of the Cabinet of the Minister.

Cabinet Scholar refers to a person who is in the Cabinet and has the title of Cabinet Scholar, and there are six ranks: four halls and two cabinets.

The four halls, the Scholar of the Middle Pole Temple, the Scholar of the Jianji Temple, the Scholar of the Wenhua Temple, and the Scholar of the Wuying Palace.

The two pavilions, Wenyuan Pavilion University Scholar, East Pavilion University Scholar. Collectively known as the Cabinet Fellows, they are generally led by members of the Cabinet.

Chongzhen was noncommittal, and looked at Qian Qianyi, the leader of the Donglin Party, out of the corner of his eyes, "What do you think of Qian Shilang?" ”
