There was silence in the courtroom. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It was like a flock of black crows floating above the palatial palace...

Zhou Yanru was in a daze, and the officials behind him were also in a daze...

"I'm guilty, and then what?"

It seemed that this sentence was still surrounding their ears, and it had not dissipated for a long time.

Oh, yes! Then, what kind of punishment do they want Ning Zhiyuan to receive, of course, the worse in their hearts, the better, and they will be happier if they can raid their family and destroy their clan, but is it possible? What about dismissal? It's impossible to think about it, how could Chongzhen agree? And then what? It doesn't matter if there is a demotion or something, Ning Zhiyuan is just a first-class position now, it is said that the emperor intends to directly put him in the palace to be the commander of the forbidden army, and he does not have much power in itself.

It can be said that Ning Zhiyuan's scenery is not based on his official position, but because he is Ning Zhiyuan, and for a while, many officials above the court have such an awareness.

Zhou Yanru also had such a thought, his face turned blue, and he was silent.

"Ahem..."Chongzhen coughed dryly, feeling a little complicated about the current situation, this is what he wants to see, but at this time he is not happy, in the same way, Ning Zhiyuan's calm words just now with extremely strong confidence made him very unhappy.

How can a courtier be more prestigious than a monarch, in fact, it is enough?

It seems that it is really a wise move to put him in Liangguang, as soon as possible, Chongzhen settled down, in the past few days when Ning Zhiyuan returned to the capital, Chongzhen's sense of Ning Zhiyuan has changed several times in a row, even if the changes in Ningxia have nothing to do with him, Chongzhen also thinks that such a courtier is really too popular.

But he can't speak now, otherwise if he asks Zhou Yanru directly what he should do, he may give others the illusion that he has begun to deliberately suppress Ning Zhiyuan..., although this is a fact, but they must not be allowed to see it.

Although there is one more important thing that makes Ning Zhiyuan feel a little pimple in his heart...

.........

"Guilty should be punished, righteous!" Zhou Yanru's face improved a little and snorted coldly, "Lord Mo Feining really thinks that no one can cure you?" Think Your Majesty can't cure you? ”

Zhou Shoufu has not given up the battle, as an old bureaucrat who has defeated countless political enemies above the court, his combat effectiveness above the court is very strong, and he is invincible in this aspect of making up nonsense, even Wen Tiren, who has pitted him, is not as powerful as him.

"Yes, guilty deserves punishment... If you are guilty, you should be punished..."Ning Daguan nodded very face-savingly, "But what crime should this official be guilty of, do you have to say something?" The tone was extremely lazy, and even Zhou Yanru felt impatient in his words.

"If you can't talk back to this official, then don't talk nonsense, a bunch of empty talkers!" Ning Zhiyuan's impatience this time was obvious, he had already fired a map cannon and bombarded the Manchurian officials, and even Chongzhen's gang was not spared.

It's just an official in the court, so let's eat! Whoever doesn't say empty words, whoever says beautifully will be promoted...

"Since you can't say it, how about the official himself tell you?" Ning Zhiyuan asked rhetorically.

They wanted to nod.

"Lord Zhou seems to have a clear understanding of the official's deeds in Datong," Ning Zhiyuan pursed the corners of his mouth, "What you just said is all right!" ”

“――――”

"The official almost copied the whole Datong and got 20 million taels of silver, but Lord Zhou knows how these 20 million taels came from."

"It's just the fat and the ointment of the people who came from the house!" Zhou Yanru snorted.

The sound of sparse pulling - sounded, this was a gentle applause, Ning Zhiyuan clapped it gently with both hands, the voice was crisp, and it was even more incomprehensible, what does this action mean?

The action of applauding had no meaning in this land at this time, Ning Zhiyuan saw their doubts and smiled even happier.

"What does this mean... Well said, what Master Zhou said is really good! ”

"More than 20 million taels of silver are indeed people's fat and people's anointing!" Ning Zhiyuan's voice is increasing, increasing!

"It seems that Master Zhou is still very clear about what kind of hookup he does with his protégé! Among these silvers, the merchants and gentry only accounted for less than eight million taels, and those officials actually had... More than 12 million! ”

"So, what do you think about this, Lord Zhou?" Ning Zhiyuan's voice softened again, and the serious expression on his face was very unhelpful in Zhou Yanru's eyes, "The official is so rich compared to the businessman, if the official is not wrong, the silver that the imperial court gives to Datong a year is only less than 100,000 taels, could it be... These people have been in Datong for more than 100 years without eating or drinking..."

"Is that really as conscientious and admirable as Lord Zhou? Haha..."Ning Daguan finally laughed a few times arrogantly.

“――――”

Mouth, real him. Mom poison!

The faces of the officials represented by Zhou Yanru were red and white, and they secretly calculated how much silver they had in their house...

After Chongzhen was stunned for a moment, his face became gloomy.

He felt very angry, yes, angry, angry to the extreme!

He knew about this news for a long time, and Ning Zhiyuan had already given a detailed explanation in the battle report to him, so the point of his anger was not that he was angry by this news, or not only, but that he didn't feel angry at first.

Chongzhen is angry that he didn't feel angry that he just started!

When he just learned the news, there was no other emotion except surprise, and now he was said by Chongzhen above the Chaoting, looking at Zhou Yanru's speechless appearance, Chongzhen could no longer describe his feelings.

He knew that what Ning Zhiyuan said was the truth, and he knew that these officials of the Manchu Dynasty were not good things, and it was common for him to be corrupt and pervert the law, but he really didn't get angry about this with the wine, except when he had just ascended the throne and took power, only now.

I... What's going on? Chongzhen needs to reflect, and he himself is indeed reflecting.

On the surface, he has been forbearance for his control of the court, and has been cultivating his cronies in the court, but in fact, he has lost his enthusiasm at the beginning, and his initial ideas have been shattered, yes, he has changed, and has been changed by the environment of this court.

Why... Will it turn out like this?

"Lord Zhou..."Chongzhen's yin voice suddenly sounded, which made Zhou Yanru, who was speaking, tremble in his heart, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

Chongzhen may not have much ability left in their hearts, and they are often perfunctory in collusion, but no one will doubt Chongzhen's prestige, this court, speaking of which, is a hall of government and government, killing whoever you want is Chongzhen's style in the past few years, and now they seem to have forgotten...

This emperor is actually a very tough emperor.

And the title has changed from 'Zhou Aiqing' to 'Lord Zhou', which makes him feel bottomless...

"Can you tell me how much money you have in your house?"

Of course not! Zhou Yanru shouted wildly in his heart, but he didn't dare to answer like this.

"Your Majesty, the old minister really doesn't know..."This is Zhou Yanru's essential oil style, and he is indeed not completely lying, it seems... I really don't know, but it's definitely a lot.

In fact...? Maybe you can be tougher, now Daming is short of money...

With silver, you can do better...

"Yes," Chongzhen replied meaningfully, "Maybe I'm really too kind to you..."

The voice was not loud, as if he was talking to himself, but Zhou Yanru could hear it...

The eunuch Wang Chengen was complicated but very happy, he was just a eunuch, but he also knew that these officials were not good things, even if they were the officials who were pinned on by Chongzhen to help him control the imperial court, there were not many good officials, otherwise where did they get the money they gave themselves from time to time?

"You... You people..."Chongzhen raised his voice, coldly glanced at the people below, Ning Zhiyuan's face remained unchanged, and the rest of the explanations looked panicked, which made Chongzhen's heart more and more angry.

He didn't want to watch a good show at the beginning, and his mentality seemed to be back to when he was a few years ago, facing the Manchu hypocrites, and only thinking about killing them... Kill...

Now that it's been six years since I registered myself, and it's been accepted by everyone, why can't I just get started?

A fierce light flashed in his eyes, and this scene was reflected in Zhou Yanru's eyes, and his heart was even more sudden.

Actively knelt down and shouted, "Your Majesty, although the old minister doesn't know how much silver there is in the house, but the servants in the family are businessmen, and the family is also wealthy, and the old minister is willing to donate half of his family property to the imperial court to train the new army to appease the people..."

Chongzhen frowned, and the expression on his face stole for a few breaths before soothing slightly.

With Zhou Yanru taking the lead, the rest of the people were not stupid, and a large number of people knelt down and said similar words in their mouths.

"The minister is willing to donate half of his family property for my Ming Dynasty to fill the treasury..."

"The minister is willing..."

“――――”

Under Chongzhen's sharp gaze, everyone knelt down, including the officials of Chongzhen's gang, anyway, they also followed the crowd, as for how much it is, who knows?

There was only one person standing very abruptly, and it was Ning Zhiyuan.

Yang Sichang, who was also kneeling behind him, glanced at Ning Zhiyuan, his heart was surging, and he knew what a real official was only after seeing Ning Zhiyuan. Full of up and down, only he can use an objective gaze to examine and observe Ning Zhiyuan.

He also knelt down, not wanting to show his edge too much, he felt that Chongzhen also wanted him to kneel.

Chongzhen looked at Ning Zhiyuan with a complicated look in the depths of his eyes, he didn't know how much money Ning Zhiyuan had, but it was very strange, he really didn't have the idea of Ning Zhiyuan's family property, maybe... I'm not a qualified monarch yet.

If he were a qualified monarch, he might be able to clear the way without Ning Zhiyuan's silver...

"Minister..."Ning Zhiyuan responded to Chongzhen's gaze and said loudly, "Have a clear conscience!" ”

For thousands of years, there will never be an official like himself, Ning Zhiyuan is full of confidence.

"Spread my will..."Chongzhen stood up and raised his gaze to a higher level again.

Zhou Yanru was worried, this confrontation was really him. Mom lost, so that Ning Zhiyuan had re-convinced the stunned emperor.

Stunned, that's right, in Zhou Yanru's heart, the ugly girl guarantees that she is a stunned green, if it weren't for a stunned green, it would be useless to do it now.

He knew very well that Chongzhen was just said by Ning Zhiyuan on a whim, and felt that he could save Daming and save the world with a will, and fell into a passionate psychology, as long as... As long as you can stop him for a while, everything will be fine, everything will be fine...

So he chose to do it, and it seemed to have some effect...

"Transferred the former governor of Datong, Ning Zhiyuan, to the governor of Liangguang ......"

"It's... It's done? Zhou Yanru was stunned and then shocked by the sudden news, and then his heart was full of joy, this is obviously not a good errand, as long as you have money, is it okay?

There are many people who think the same way as him, they are all surprised and forget to be shrouded in great joy, they are happy because of what happened to Ning Zhiyuan, although many people among them have even forgotten why they are happy for Ning Zhiyuan's bad luck, for no reason, Ning Zhiyuan has become a class enemy.

Yang Sichang sighed, he was just a secretary of the military department, Chongzhen hadn't discussed it with him, but this style was really not very suitable...

Don't you think about Lord Ning's thoughts?

"Add Ning Aiqing as the Duke of Weiguo..." was an understatement again, which made everyone silent, and Yang Sichang opened his mouth,... That's not bad...

Even Ning Zhiyuan was a little stunned, he had been in Daming for so long, and he already knew a lot about his official position.

Guogong's words, the official position is only three grades, and it is a fictitious position, compared to the prince Shaobao, it is still inferior, not to mention that he already has the title of prince Taibao, it seems that Guogong is much inferior in comparison.

You must know that when I was in Jinling, I abolished a Guogong, and from this you can know how embarrassing the status of Guogong is, but this official position still makes everyone yearn for it.

To be exact, this is not an official position, but a knighthood.

The title of Sanpin can be hereditary, and it will be blessed for generations to come, just like the prince.

Ning Zhiyuan didn't care very much, but it didn't prevent him from being surprised, and he smiled slightly in his heart, Chongzhen's hand was beautiful.

Since the usurpation of the Yongle Emperor Zhu Di, it seems that no one in the Ming Dynasty has ever sealed this Guogong, whether it is the famous minister Zhang Juzheng or even the person who has contributed more, the Baoguo Gong of Jinling or the legacy of the Zhu Di period... Rubbish.

If you don't have anything else in mind, this hand is enough.
