Chapter 511: Big Fish ......
After Jia Huan finished today's training with Wu Yuan, he didn't rush back to the inner house.
He actually prefers the sense of ease when he gets along with Ying Xing'er now, and although he is also touched by the care of the women in the family, he gradually feels a little heavier......
At the moment, he is struggling, and of course, this is also the struggling of happiness.
It's just that the pressure has been really a lot lately, and he wants to slow down.
It's not an attempt to escape, but a reminder......
"Big brother?"
Jia Huan sat on the edge of the school field at home and called out.
Han Da was boiling ginseng bone soup on the side, and after hearing the voice, he beckoned Han San to continue boiling, walked up to Jia Huan, and asked, "Brother Huan, what's wrong?" ”
Jia Huan frowned slightly and said, "Do you remember that during the Great War in the Northwest before, you captured a drunken Erros, what is his name?" ”
Han Da was stunned when he heard this, then thought about it and said, "Kresev, it seems to be this name." ”
Jia Huan nodded and said, "That's the name...... What did he say he came from? ”
When Han Da heard this, he shook his head with a smile and said, "At that time, I only thought that he was a drunkard and couldn't kill him, and when I saw that he was from Erros, I brought him back."
I thought that there were people of all ethnic groups in our house, but there was no Eros people, and I wanted to make up for it.
It's just that he didn't have time to take care of him after he brought it back, and he was still tied to the horse pen, who still remembers where he came from. ”
Jia Huan also smiled when he heard this, and said, "Big brother, go and bring him, I'll ask him a few words." ”
Han Da answered, and after a while, he brought back a man with a head full of blonde hair. The tall Eros man with a pale complexion and blue eyes came.
It's just that he has a good appearance. In the eyes of Han Da and others, it is a real Rakshasa ghost. Ugly scary......
Kreschev was also stained with a lot of horse manure and weeds, which stinked.
After he walked over dejectedly under the pressure of Han Da, he looked at Jia Huan, who was sitting there with a black cloth in front of him, and always felt a sense of familiarity, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it......
"Can you speak Qin?"
Jia Huan asked lightly.
"Yes, I have received five language courses since I was a child, and Qin is one of them."
Kreschev said proudly in his tone, in fact, his Qin language was very blunt. Weird.
Jia Huan smiled, pointed to the ground, and said, "Sit down and talk." ”
Kreschev was not grateful, so he sat cross-legged on the ground, sat down with his back straight, and sat upright, which showed that he should have a good upbringing.
After sitting upright, he took the initiative to ask, "What kind of nobleman is Your Excellency in the Qin State?" Is it a viscount?
I am an earl in Eros. The youngest earl.
Do you know who my aunt is? ”
Jia Huan asked quietly, "Who is it?" ”
Kreschev was not busy answering, he said to Jia Huan: "Can you let your servant give me a bowl of broth?" I think I'm really going to starve to death, and the cold bread you've given me is so unpalatable......"
Jia Huan smiled and did not correct the difference between cold steamed buns and cold bread. Rather, he said, "They are not my servants, but my brothers." ”
As he spoke, Han Da nodded.
Han Da gave Han San a look.
He sat next to Jia Huan. Beware of this rakshasa ghost who can't figure it out and does something stupid......
Han San was huffing. Behind everyone's back, after scooping out a bowl of fragrant and delicious broth from the pot. His eyes rolled, and he quietly spat in it, and then he turned and walked up to Kreschev and handed it to him.
After Kreschev took the soup bowl, he thanked him, and then he was not afraid of being hot, and drank it all, and his face suddenly looked much better......
Han San held back a smile and turned around to serve soup to Jia Huan......
After drinking three bowls of broth, Kreschev said triumphantly: "My family is one of the top twelve dukes' families in Erros, and the family crest is a blue ice wolf, it is said that my ancestors once raised such an ice wolf.
My father, Menshikov, was the famous Grand Duke of the Blue Ice Wolf in Erros.
He was also the marshal of the Southern Army of Erros, under his command 200,000 Cossack horsemen.
And my aunt is Catherine, the favorite empress of the great Peter the Great in Eros today.
What do you think? Your Excellency, do you know who I am? Hehe......
My name is Kresev, and I am the only heir of the Blue Ice Wolf family, so I was able to earn the title of count at this age.
My father and my aunt, once they know that I have been captured by the Qin State, they will definitely send someone to ransom me.
With gold, jewelry, and slaves, they're not stingy.
Noble man of the Qin Kingdom, I hope to be able to gain your friendship and become your friend.
You should know that it makes more sense to have a distinguished friend like me than to have a captive, doesn't it? ”
After hearing this, Jia Huan's hand trembled slightly, but his face and tone remained unchanged, and he said with a smile: "Kreschev, what you said is very right, I am also willing to be friends with people like you......
By the way, if your father and aunt knew that you were captured, would they start a war to rescue you? ”
Kreschev was overjoyed when he heard this, then shrugged his shoulders and said proudly: "Of course I will, but only if they know that I am not dead."
If you send a letter to my father, believe me, he will give you more benefits than you can imagine.
Really ......"
Jia Huanqiang resisted the urge to look up to the sky and laugh, with a warm smile on his face, and said: "Last question, after finishing speaking, Lao Tzu invites you to eat the most beautiful food and drink the strongest wine!"
Kreschev, how did the Dzungar Ministry get in touch with you and make an appointment to send troops? ”
……
On the Guangming Hall of Daming Palace, the ministers who had been arguing all morning in a mess did not come up with a result.
No matter what kind of demeanor they use, whether they plead, or demand, or kowtow, or "die admonishment......
In short, Emperor Longzheng just didn't let go, and only said that he would wait until the Emperor Taishang was out of the customs, otherwise it would be disrespectful to the Emperor.
Until the end, Emperor Longzheng spoke, the silver that you have borrowed from the household department over the years. What should be paid back will be returned.
The war was imminent, but the money from the treasury was borrowed by all of you. How else to fight?
As soon as these words came out, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty. It was cold in an instant.
Before crying, making trouble or kowtowing, the ugly drama is finally over.
No one dared to speak out again, even the few who had not borrowed the money from the household department were silent at the moment.
This is a bad debt, where is it clear?
From the princes of the clan to the ministers of civil and military affairs, among the hundreds of officials, how many have not eaten this mouthful of "Tang monk meat"?
Except for a few wealthy families. Unwilling to lose face to take advantage, and there are some "old-fashioned" and square, or timid and cowardly, the bright and decent people of the Manchu Dynasty are actually mostly living a decent life with the money of the imperial court.
There are even those who use the money from the household department to do money lending business and eat money......
I don't know what year it began, and everyone discovered the free cornucopia of the treasury and began to borrow year after year.
At first, everyone returned it on time, but later someone found out. It doesn't matter if you don't pay it back, and no one is urging you......
Gradually, no one will pay it back, not only will it not be returned. I also continue to borrow.
In the name of the virtuous king of the loyal king, this generosity accounts for at least half of the credit.
However, such a year's old accounts overwhelm a year's new accounts, and now it has become a mess at all. Difficult to clarify.
Of the eight million taels of silver recorded by the household department, less than forty percent remained.
And that's just the case this year. I didn't remember it here at all in previous years.
If it were all added up, it would be an extremely terrifying number.
Who has the courage to pursue it?
Besides. Who will offend people if they take this errand and not give birth to it?
This is a disaster for the family!
In the group of civil officials, except for Zhang Boxing, who was still standing straight, everyone else was silent.
The silence was embarrassing.
Emperor Longzheng's fine eyes swept over the calm face of King Zhongshun, and the anger and sarcasm in his eyes coexisted.
"Prince Zhongshun, you are the king of evidence, and you have always been in charge of the household department, so this matter will be left to you.
Lord Ge of the Cabinet Cabinet, since you are in charge of the household department, you will work with Sun Cheng, the secretary of the household department, to assist Prince Zhongshun in handling this matter as soon as possible.
General Niu Da had already expressed his opinion on behalf of the Military Aircraft Pavilion yesterday, and the soldiers at the front were working hard, and the bloodshed and sacrifice were all state affairs.
Therefore, the pension silver and reward silver in the army cannot be less.
The imperial court could not let the soldiers shed blood on the front line, but the family did not even have the money to buy them coffins.
If it really comes to this point, Daqin really should die!
When there was a shortage of money in the account, he went to check the account.
Whoever is responsible for it is to find whom, and whoever can't explain it clearly is whose problem.
If you can't find the money, you will raid your house, and if you can't copy it, you will cut off your head!
I think what General Niu said is reasonable!
The imperial court has never lacked your silver and rice, why are you still insatiable?
I can't touch the money of the treasury, but you're welcome......
Hum!
Loyal to the king, you have been acting for many years, and you are a testimony to the prince.
Why is there such a large shortfall in the treasury......
I don't want to ask who is guilty now, and I don't want to ask about sin.
You are all the pillars of the court......
However, before the end of the war with Eros, all the silver from the treasury had to be recovered.
If it was because of the lack of silver in the imperial court, the military affairs were delayed.
I recognize you as a pillar of the imperial court, but I don't recognize the law of the land. ”
This is probably the first time in so many years that Emperor Longzheng exuded his imperial might in front of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces.
If it was back then, I am afraid that there would have been imperial history and ministers, and people who were not afraid of death who dared to speak up and were loyal to the country, and bluntly criticized Emperor Longzheng's shallow virtue and such violence. Politics is not the appearance of a human king.
Today, however, no one dares to say such a thing.
Because all those who say such things owe a piece of. The famine of the eyes, the weakness of the heart......
Emperor Longzheng looked at the Zhongshun King with a stiff and blue face, sitting in this hall, Longzheng, who had been aggrieved for nearly twenty years, felt so happy for the first time!
The emperor is in retreat, so you dare to bully Jia Huan unscrupulously.
But you have forgotten that after the Emperor Taishang retreated, I was the most noble person in the world.
As long as I grasp the righteousness, can't I clean up your lawless bastard behavior for so many years?
Old Fourteen, let's calculate this account slowly!
……
"Lord Wang, you have to take responsibility for this matter!"
"That is, my lord, you are the most virtuous in the country, that person has no responsibility, you have to take responsibility. Otherwise, who else can we Daqin count on? ”
"What Lord Zhu said is very true, the prince is famous, and the world knows it. This time, he was even more concerned about the world, and for the sake of Daqin's country, he took the initiative to ask that the lord of Mingzhu County be married to Zasaktu......
Just, alas! Some people really don't have responsibility.
Prince, according to the minister's intentions, since that person is not responsible, it is better for the prince to take the initiative and go to talk about family affairs with Prince Zasaktu's mansion.
This Great Qin's heaven can only be carried by the prince.
Rest assured, as long as you pass this hurdle, from now on, you say east, we will never dare to go west! ”
"That's right! That's right! ”
"That's right! We'll all listen to the prince from now on......"
……
(To be continued.) )
PS: It's not to put gold on my face, but some of the characters that appear in this book, especially the original ones, are rarely useless.
When Kreschev appeared earlier, he laid the foreshadowing, not only an important character in this plot, but also an important figure in a relatively recent and distant plot.
Several important holes are about to be filled, and several important turning points are about to occur.
It's hard to say anything more, but let's see.
In addition, I would like to thank many book friends who have never left the book for their support and understanding, and try not to disappoint you.
Thank you.
