Chapter 0188: Da Ming's Condition
Ningxia Mansion! There is also a Ningxia Mansion, which was recently synthesized by the two important nine-sided towns of Guyuan and Ningxia, why didn't they ask for help?
And you know, it's a nine-sided town! Chongzhen wanted to scold his mother in his heart, why? Because in addition to feeding these people, the important towns of the nine borders also rely on the harvest of those cultivated fields to feed the army, and those local armies in Shanxi are indeed funded by the imperial court, so they have no military salary now Chongzhen added embarrassedly in his heart.
"Your Majesty, Ningxia can indeed be self-sufficient, but this is because Ning Zhiyuan spent a million taels of silver on the people of that place last year, this" Someone said, they naturally know Ning Zhiyuan's family history, how can it be so easy to turn decay into magic, unless there is money, and Ning Zhiyuan does have it.
"One million taels" Chongzhen's face became cloudy again, this is worth his taxes for a whole year of Daming, is there really so much?
"Then where did Ning Aiqing get the money?" Chongzhen asked again, he was naturally clear in his heart, it was nothing more than Ning Zhiyuan's business affairs and the officials from all over the country along the way, and the latter accounted for most of them. How dare everyone at the bottom answer, this is a bottomless question, so they all kept silent.
Waving his hand, Chongzhen didn't ask much about it, the more he knew, the more upset he became, now that Yuan Chonghuan was killed, he didn't have to pay so much military pay to Liaodong every year, so Chongzhen still had more savings than in previous years, and he could be more generous for disaster relief.
He thought again, even if there is no Yuan Chonghuan in Liaodong now, he has saved so much silver in vain, it is not the same as before, the offense is insufficient, and the defense is more than enough, but hey, after glancing at the location of the military department, he is no longer the familiar old man Sun Chengzong, so what is the name of the newcomer? Whatever, Chongzhen doesn't know, anyway, it's a mixed rice eater.
To tell the truth, Chongzhen has great respect for Sun Chengzong, the veteran of the Three Dynasties, and is the builder of the Guanjin defense line, and he can always say some constructive opinions in this court that only knows what to do, although Chongzhen himself doesn't know whether it's right or not, praise it or not, just like he built a city in the Daling River this time, which led to Zu Dashou being besieged and Zhang Chun's 40,000 army defeated.
Chongzhen is a little angry about all this, but he can't accept it, since he came to power, is it possible to lose the battle? What's more, it's not too embarrassing to lose to Houjin, it's just that a large group of cats and dogs jumped out to point fingers, which made Sun Chengzong ashamed, and ran away directly, and he himself has been keeping Old Man Sun, after all, this is the only one who can go to the battlefield, and has been on the battlefield, in Chongzhen's heart, he is great.
"What should be the explanation of the siege of the Daling River?" Chongzhen rubbed his head, the joy of courage because he had some private money suddenly disappeared, and he couldn't help but start to miss Ning Zhiyuan a little, if he was above the court, why would he be able to support himself, although Ning Zhiyuan was only a teenager and had not yet been weakly crowned, but for Chongzhen, it was undoubtedly a match in the dark, Xu Guangqi was also sick in bed, it would always be reassuring, the thought flashed, and his eyes turned to Wen Tiren, and there was finally a more obedient one.
"Your Majesty, for the sake of today, I still ordered to strictly guard Jinzhou and Shanhaiguan, and it is necessary to keep the Houjin troops out and raise the prestige of our Ming Dynasty." Zhou Yanru said again, anyway, if you say good things and don't need money, it's better to have more and the better, in his heart, although the national strength of the Ming Dynasty is weaker now, but this has nothing to do with him, it is great that the center of gravity has moved south like the Song Dynasty, and they will go to the capital. He is still living his good life.
"yes, yes"
"What Lord Zhou said is very true, what he said is very much" A lot of sycophants followed.
"Hey," Chongzhen sighed in his heart, and sat back on the dragon chair with his eyes closed, "Isn't there anyone in this Manchu Dynasty who understands some things?" I'm the only one who understands."
He asked how to break the siege, a large group of waste told him that he should stick to it, although Chongzhen also thought so, but he was still very disappointed, because Da Ling River, there is no solution, I just hope that Nazu Dashou can break through smoothly, otherwise there is really no one available in the northeast.
Things are put aside for the time being, Chongzhen set his sights on the drought in the northwest again, and if the northwest is stable for a few years, I will call Houjin to come and go.
"Spread my will" Chongzhen finally said slowly, "Order the household department to carry 800,000 stone of grain, 100,000 taels of silver, and the northwest disaster relief, which will be handled by Zhou Aiqing with full authority, and Wen Aiqing will supervise it." "This time it took half a year to pay taxes in the Ming Dynasty, if it is like in previous years, see if I can still tolerate you? At this moment, Chongzhen's eyes showed a fierce light.
Chrysostom Yuyan said, in Chongzhen's eyes, he felt that everyone below immediately showed their eyes, it was another fortune season every year, others were affected, and they became rich, this is the benefit of being an official, he can't see it, everyone is bowing their heads, just taking it for granted, although it is almost the same
Zhou Yanru was stunned after a short surprise, Wen Tiren was happy after a short surprise, and let out a sigh of relief, there will always be a result for paying, hehe.
There was a sudden noise outside the main hall, which made Chongzhen and everyone frown, this is the palace, could it be that he suddenly had a very bad premonition in his heart, and after a while, there was a paging voice from the guards outside the hall.
"Your Majesty, Shandong Urgent News, do you want to announce it?"
Chongzhen's bad feeling in his heart is getting more and more serious, and his face is changing again, as an emperor, his political wisdom is not high, and the changes in the expression on his face before this are all deliberately for himself, but now that there is unexpected news, he can't help but remain calm.
"Xuan." Chongzhen spit out such a word, for government affairs, he will always deal with it as soon as possible, and only sleep two hours a day, but since taking office, many things have always been beyond the reach of manpower, and no matter how hard he tries, he is helpless.
Xuanjian is naturally not a messenger, but a letter is transmitted, and then read by the eunuch, this practice is for the emperor's safety, but it also gives the eunuchs in the palace a lot of power in a certain aspect, and they can even hide from the world.
"The criminal minister Yu Dacheng, the royal majesty is not strict, Denglai Governor Sun Yuanhua accepted the rebels Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming from Phi Island, burned and looted along the road, and did all kinds of evil, which led to the fall of Denglai, and the people were in dire straits, and the ministers were really guilty of ten thousand deaths, and I hope that the saint would deal with it as soon as possible" A large wave of words were read, and when the voice of the great eunuch who read the urgent letter became trembling, Chongzhen suddenly laughed.
Everyone hurriedly knelt down and shouted mourning for the change, in this situation involving territorial disputes, they were very rational and decisive and did not open their mouths, they could only hope that today's court meeting would end as soon as possible, and they also scolded that Sun Yuanhua half to death in their hearts, and everyone would accept it, isn't this Yang He's second? People collect bandits, you accept robbers, it's really good brothers.
However, Sun Yuanhua is much more serious than Yang He, you must know that Yang He really surrendered the rebels in desperation, but this Sun Yuanhua, the tall and big city guarded, took the initiative to take in people, and finally lost the city, and he was sorry for not dying.
"It's really ridiculous," Chongzhen said, his expression a little hideous, "Why didn't anyone tell me that the rebels on Phi Island had entered my Ming territory." ”
No one answered, because they didn't know how to answer.
"It's just a day or two, how long have the rebels been here? I also robbed it all over Shandong, why hasn't anyone told me yet, why Sun Yuanhua still wants to surrender after robbing my Ming people" Chongzhen asked loudly, trembling with anger.
"Spread my will, Shandong Governor Yu Dacheng, Denglai Governor Sun Yuanhua will be removed from his post for investigation, and Sun Yuanhua's whole family will be assigned to fill the army" Chongzhen said without waiting for everyone to answer, he was really a little angry, "Retire from the dynasty and discuss it tomorrow." ”
Everyone took a deep breath.
The next day, Chongzhen ordered that Xie Lian be the governor of Dengzhou to quell the rebellion. Chongzhen doesn't know if it's reliable, and I don't know if Chongzhen can quell the rebellion, but the order is always given, just like letting Yang He quell the rebellion at that time.
Denglai Denglai is divided into Dengzhou and Laizhou, and Kong Youde They occupy only Dengzhou, Laizhou children are under the control of the imperial court, otherwise Chongzhen would not order the governor of Denglai to quell the rebellion, Dengzhou is just a small county town, it is not able to support Kong Youde and others, and the imperial court also sent people to quell the chaos, they are not afraid, but they are doing their old business again, robbing.
In order to survive is only one aspect, but it also shows that in today's Ming Dynasty, there are more and more people who do not take imperial power in their eyes, and where will the Ming Dynasty go
The various departments in Shaanxi could not get mixed up, and under the attack of Cao Wenzhao and Hong Chengchou, the 36th battalion of the rebel army in Shanxi had already arrived, and they had to continue to fight.
Shaanxi finally calmed down, after such a period of time, Chongzhen was very satisfied with the results of the battle, and he was also very satisfied with Cao Wenzhao's performance, so after the governor of Shanxi was frightened by the attacking anti-thief, Chongzhen instantly asked him to pack his luggage and go home, and replaced him with such a worry-free little partner, Cao Wenzhao.
Chongzhen used to have some discrimination against martial arts, but for years and days, he was really unhappy by the scholars in the imperial court, and he felt that martial arts were good, martial arts were simple, and simple people were cute
Speaking of which, he was really right, Cao Wenzhao is such a big old man, he has fought for so long in Liaodong, everyone has fought, from Nurhachi to Huang Taiji, but he just has no status, and now he has only been home for a long time, and he has been promoted several levels one after another, and now he is an official to the general army of Shanxi, and the soldier dies for his confidant, and the power of the imperial power is strong enough to make people desperate
Ning Daguan is in the Li Mansion every day, and naturally he will not leave behind the information of all parties, he knows very well what kind of era this is from, so he was not stingy in intelligence from the beginning, and what he has to do is just to avoid all kinds of minefields, and then develop quietly and steadily, and he will not come to this world in vain.
In the second year of Chongzhen, when the thieves were the most rampant, and the Houjin even broke several cities in Liaodong, in the eyes of almost everyone, there was no danger of losing the country.
Although even he himself often quotes the words of the mean, the country will die, there will be demons, and Jinling Qinhuai and Yangzhou Qinglou criticize the political party how fierce, but in the final analysis, it is just the ignorant remarks of those scholars who raise their own value, and there is only some truth, in fact, the Ming Dynasty is going to die, but it is really difficult within ten years, but Chongzhen's temperament determines the consequences, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies. This is also the reason why in history he can still win the admiration of future generations as a dead emperor.
Ning Daguan also admired and admired this approach, but he did not dare to agree, if it was him, how could he persist until the last moment, and climb to Nanjing, this is a responsibility, not an evasion.
When it comes to accumulating strength, fighting a war is nothing more than money and money, of course, the leader is very important, he feels that with such a wise leader as himself, the only problem left is money.
His eyes couldn't help but look at Li Jinshi.
Li Jin and Ning Zhiyuan sat in the pavilion in the backyard of the Li family, and since that day, there have been a lot more exchanges with Ning Zhiyuan, and Ning Daguan feels more and more that the girl also has an extraordinary heart under her extraordinary appearance, and he has no feelings about it, or is he a little happy, is it so difficult to marry a rouge fan?
Although the summer is hot, this pavilion is really cool, surrounded by trees, and then spread to water, this is a small pavilion in the middle of the lake, and the hand can't help but grasp Li Jinye's hands again, the girl is concentrating on the results of the past few days in the shop, it is inevitable that she will be startled, and there is no longer the usual tiredness on her face.
Li Jin is head up and blinked, and he was a little more naughty, the feeling of getting along for a few days made him very comfortable, she was full of yearning for her future life, and found that Ning Zhiyuan seemed to be distracted, which made her unhappy, grabbing my hand to delay my business and then you were still in a daze, what does this mean?
"What do you want?" Li Jin asked with a pout, she didn't even have the title of Gongzi for Ning Zhiyuan.
"It's good to be rich."
"Huh?" The girl was stunned.
"My son said, it's good to be rich." Ning Zhiyuan repeated, looking around, with a lazy smile on his face, "If you look at this Lake Pavilion today, the cost will be high." "This is still in the Zhejiang mansion
"It's good to have money, Childe is right, but now it's almost out of money." Li Jinshi nodded and said, looking at Ning Zhiyuan is cute, "Today I have heard the operation of shops in various places, and in the past ten days, the daily income has plummeted to less than fifty percent, and the situation is already very bad." ”
Xiao Nizi's tone is a little tempting, a little seductive.
"Haha, then let this son raise you." Ning Zhiyuan laughed and said, "I can also help my husband manage the business when I go back." ”
"Really?" Li Jinis said with a smile. "Does that husband know how much money the Li family's business can earn in a year?"
Ning Zhiyuan nodded, shook his head again, and smiled the same.
"It should be five or six million taels a year." Li Jinshi said with a wink.
