One hundred and forty-eight, the sailors are to be dispatched
Yang Junmin calculated it and reported a quota of 100,000 taels, of course, the treasury was more than 100,000 yuan, Yang Junmin did not support the continued expansion of the Korean campaign, seeing that the emperor not only sent the army, but now he actually sent a sailor to attack, it was really a bit sensational, so Yang Junmin deliberately said less, hoping to end the war as soon as possible, and even to promote peace talks between the two sides.

But Zhu Yijun would never think so, he would pay, but he would never pay so simply.
"One hundred thousand...... Lakh! Good, good, good! Zhu Yijun shook his hand and smashed a book of folds in his hand on Yang Junmin's body, and was furious: "Since ancient times, the national treasury has allocated silver!" It's time for me to be Ming! He actually asked the emperor to use the silver in the internal inventory to subsidize the state! What did you do with three or four million tax dollars! One by one, their hands and feet are not clean, and they all do something with my treasury silver! ”
Yang Junmin was inexplicably panicked by Zhu Yijun's sudden roar, and he didn't react, he knelt down directly, and Shi Xing also knelt down with him.
"Your Majesty, please calm the wrath of thunder!"
Zhu Yijun smashed another fold and shouted angrily: "Rest the anger, the anger is angry!" Do you know why I don't want to see you? Every time I see you, every time I have to take money out of the inner treasury! What about the silver in the treasury?! Where did all that millions of silver go?! Did I raise a bunch of officials or a bunch of rats?! ”
Zhu Yijun scolded Yang Junmin and Shi Xing bitterly, the two of them couldn't say a word when they were scolded, they knelt on the ground and didn't dare to move, after a while, Zhu Yijun slowly calmed down, sat back in his position, and said: "Stand up and talk carefully!" ”
As if they had been pardoned, they immediately stood up.
"I don't care about the treasury silver for the time being, I want to send a sailor to attack the Japanese invaders, and I can give out the silver if the Japanese country is decided in a war, but Yang Junmin, I tell you that the household treasury will give me at least 200,000 yuan, one or two less silver, and you can return to your hometown!"
Zhu Yijun's words were unprecedentedly harsh, which made Yang Junmin shocked - it is true that the household department wants to take 200,000 yuan, but it is all silver prepared for various departments, and it is not a matter of one or two days for the Ming Dynasty to eat grain, and the current sum of silver may have been booked by other departments three or five years ago, and it will be taken out as soon as the silver comes, and it will not be able to enter the household warehouse at all, let alone deposit silver.
He had some money on hand, but that was the cost of the Ministry of Works......
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... The minister is not unwilling to take, the minister does have silver in hand, but Your Majesty, those silver are useful, in recent years, natural disasters and military disasters have continued, the imperial court tax has been decreasing year after year, often this sum of silver is needed by various departments several years in advance, there was no silver deposit that year, can only wait for next year's silver to come and then make up for it, as soon as the silver comes to the capital, it will be pulled away by various departments, and even the warehouse of the household department can not enter, complementarity has been encouraged to maintain, and now His Majesty wants to take away 200,000 in one breath, minister, minister really can't do it! ”
Yang Junmin cried poor.
"I don't care about that! If it weren't for the fact that I had taken the silver from my inner treasury to subsidize the state over the years, your household would have been unable to sustain itself, and the silver I subsidized before and after was more than one million, and now you have all developed a habit of giving me money for everything!
Then what do I want you to do in this household department, what do I want you to do in this household department, Yang Junmin, if you can't take out 200,000 taels of silver, today, all the officials of your entire household department can resign, and I let the internal officials take over! I can't afford to raise a bunch of wastes that can't even take out 200,000 taels of silver! A bunch of eunuchs are better at money than you are! ”
Zhu Yijun's words were very cold, not like angry words at all, which frightened Yang Junmin's heart and made him cry bitterly.
In all fairness, the emperor vented his malice towards the entire civil official group on him alone, and the dispute over the state made the emperor extremely angry, and his impression of the ministers was extremely bad, so he almost started a war with the ministers.
But did the ministers really dare to go to war with the emperor? That's a rebellion, it's really going to be done, the emperor is in a hurry, it's not impossible to come out directly with a knife to kill the minister, the Great Song Dynasty doesn't give the killer doctor, the Ming Dynasty doesn't have this convention.
Back then, Jiajing Ye killed dozens of people with a stick, and only then did he bring Yang Tinghe down and tame the civil officials, and now this master does not have the courage of Jiajing Ye, but the means are not weak, and his temperament is also strong.
It is not a secret that the emperor relies on the internal officials of the inner court to earn money and spend his own expenses, which should be put in other dynasties, and there must be a special appropriation for the royal family in the household funds, only the Ming Dynasty does not have it, and the emperor wants to take the silver out to subsidize the state.
But Yang Junmin is well versed in the inside story and knows to what extent the Ming Dynasty has been hollowed out, and he only knows that the accounts of the household department must not be seen by the emperor, otherwise the entire outer court will really bleed.
As for how true or false the emperor's words were, Yang Junmin didn't dare to speculate, he only knew that this matter was definitely impossible, the emperor was angry, but if he was angry, he wouldn't be able to get any benefits.
The malice of the ministers towards the Jin Party clique was not a day or two, and the Jin Merchants and Jin Dang went too far in helping students, which made the big businessmen and big landlords in the rest of the country very dissatisfied, thinking that they were stirring up trouble and digging corners, so they mobilized their respective interest spokesmen to start dog-eat-dog.
Recently, this trend has been dispersed by the struggle for the national capital and the battle of Korea, and everyone will work together to force the emperor to compromise for the time being, but once this matter is settled, everyone will definitely start fighting for power and profit, and start preparing for the next dynasty to divide power, and the bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods of all parties and factions will also start to act, and his situation will be very disadvantageous at that time.
In order not to tell the truth at this time, Yang Junmin could only swallow this bitter fruit and express his position with a bitter face.
"The minister will do his best to raise 200,000 taels of military expenses for His Majesty!"
"Humph!"
Zhu Yijun snorted coldly and turned his gaze to Shi Xing: "Shi Xing, I want to dispatch the Navy Division to cooperate with the army to fight and cut off the retreat of the Japanese from the waterway, do you have a suitable candidate for the Admiral of the Water Division?" ”
Shi Xing realized that the emperor's will to dispatch the sailors was unshakable, so he thought for a while and said, "The minister recommends Chen Lan, the current deputy chief soldier of Jizhen. ”
"Chen Luan? It seems a little familiar, who is it? ”
Zhu Yijun felt a little familiar with this name at first glance, as if he had heard it somewhere.
Shi Xing replied: "Yes, Your Majesty, this person was recruited into the court last year as a general of the Seventh Battalion of the Divine Machine, because he fought with the Japanese in the southeast of Guangdong in his early years, pacified many rebellions, and was familiar with the tactics of the Japanese Invaders, so he was recommended, this person is not only good at land warfare, but also has some experience in water warfare, so the minister recommended this person to serve as the commander of the naval division." ”
"Chen Luan? Has this person been impeached and dismissed for corruption? Yang Junmin suddenly spoke: "This person has been impeached and corrupted for the past 30 years, so he has been dismissed several times, and because he is really talented, he has been used several times, but he has not changed the problem of corruption, and he has always been impeached and dismissed, and no one is willing to recommend him later." ”
Shi Xing was a little embarrassed.
Zhu Yijun looked at Yang Junmin and asked, "Shi Xing, is that the case?" ”
