Li Xiangjun's little eyes that seemed to be full of anticipation made Kou Baimen think for a while, what kind of concubine should he be, it seems that he can't use his own name to take it... It's so distressing...

"Don't mess around." After being stunned for a moment, the officials smiled helplessly, "When did my son say that he was going to rebel, don't you really want to be a concubine for the emperor?" ”

"Xiangjun, listen up, everything this son has done... Just to protect you. Ning Daguan said with a serious face.

............

In the Forbidden City, Chongzhen received a statement from Ning Zhiyuan from Jinling asking for his resignation as governor of Ningxia, to the effect that he had settled down in Jinling, which was still his hometown, and hoped that the emperor could change his position.

Chongzhen was overjoyed when he heard this, but he always had to be reserved, so he stayed and didn't send it, waiting for Ning Zhiyuan to continue to be on the table, and now his affairs are still staring at those dozens of demonstration counties, if he can achieve good results, then everything will come together.

And Wen Tiren followed Chongzhen's pace closely when he came to power, pointing where to fight, and then installing his own people, so for a while the prestige in the court was incomparable, which made Chongzhen very angry, this is not still the same virtue as before, but it is just a change of faction.

Hou Fangyu in the palace sighed, his eyes were very complicated, and he was wearing a eunuch costume that made him disgusting, but he was also helpless, he had suffered a lot of white eyes and ridicule these days, and some of his previous friends also disdained to be with him, because in the eyes of everyone, he was a hungry ghost who robbed his life, and he was kicked by Ning Zhiyuan before he succeeded, and the greater Ning Zhiyuan's prestige, the worse his treatment became, and the blazing ambition that came to the capital had long been gone, and the only thing left was to ask for more blessings, but this did not make him give up treatment and enter the palace, He still has dignity ... The key is Li Cong's words of admonishment, Zhou Daochang, disappeared, the son of the Tian family who was castrated also disappeared, Zhang Pu, his mother went out to be an official also disappeared... Is this fucking going to give him a way out?

So let him enter the palace, maybe he can get the emperor's trust and take revenge, he must still not be able to accept it for a while, because his belief that he belongs to the scholar is still very deep-rooted, and then Li Cong died, and he was suspicious, and he even suspected that Ning Zhiyuan sent someone to kill him, and then... Uncle Guo provoked him and was also killed by him, he firmly believed that this was Ning Zhiyuan's conspiracy, and he also completely believed the words of the dead Li Cong, he didn't want to die, so he gritted his teeth and entered the palace.

He will not forget Chongzhen's smiling eyes at that time, but he still gave him the authority of a clerical eunuch, there is no hope of being Chongzhen's private eunuch, and the private eunuch may not be able to escape well.

At the same time, in several small counties in the Ming Dynasty, the high-spirited county magistrate pushed away all filial piety and prepared to collect taxes, for their first career, they were full of passion, and at the same time enthusiastic, and then... What should be the first step?

Finally figured out that this thing should be... Send someone to do it, and those subordinates are in the process of collecting taxes, only to understand that there is nothing to do with themselves, this is not okay, go to the place where the grain is collected...... This is the case with Yao Jie, the new magistrate.

The tax system of the Ming Dynasty was divided into upper, middle and lower three classes at the beginning of the founding of the country, which means that the wealthy people have to pay more taxes, and then slowly they will be treated equally, because the operability is too great, not to mention that it is now a natural disaster in the northwest, so the tax adjustment has become ten taxes and two, and the tax collection system is when Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the dynasty, in order to prevent the government from eating and eating the people, so he implemented the system of managing the people by the people, which means that a county is divided into several regions, and then each area is collected by the rich households with the best local reputation, and becomes the grain chief... This is inevitable and has become an unspoken rule.

After the autumn harvest, the deputy grain chief went door-to-door to inform the chief to bring the people to collect taxes, and then the government sent people to supervise, and the annual tax collection task of a grain chief was tens of thousands of stones, depending on the surrounding people.

The people poured the rice into the Hu, and then the grain chiefs kicked it, let the people make up for it again, and the grain collection was completed, and the ones on the ground were the documents and grain chiefs who were sent to supervise, Yao Jie looked at this scene and was quite curious, this is the so-called kicking Hu Linjian, because he is a scholar, and he also won the lifting of people early, so he did not pay taxes, but in this way, those people seem to be accustomed to it, Yao Jie did not stand up, and he can't force his subordinates too dead at once, his task this year is to collect all the taxes according to the amount, anyway, what should be collected is still collected, These vices will be improved later.

In the evening, he came to the granary and looked at his tax payment this year, which seemed to be a lot, but why did the new rice become the old rice? Yao Jie was furious, and ordered the arrest of the officials guarding the granary to be questioned, and the officials trembled and said that the grain merchants exchanged the old for the new to give the difference, and they were a little innocent..."My lord, you don't want the lower official to give you silver, and there is also the yamen to catch the head and catch the fast, the official canon, the confiscated silver, why only arrest the lower official?" The hall was full of heads and the master who recorded on the side was full of smiles......

What's wrong? Arrest us all, sir! And the money is back for you.

Yao Jie sat powerlessly on top of the public hall and saw that it was dark.

At this moment, such things are happening in many places, and some casually report an excuse, the fields are flooded, and the harvest is sharply reduced, so the grain is even cut off a few percent, and then reported to the government, and the same is true, and then reported to the province... So the taxes received by Chongzhen were almost the same as in previous years, and after careful investigation, it was found... Can't check it out in detail!

The feedback I received from the letters from the counties I assigned and the specific amount of taxes in the county, and compared with the detailed data in my hands, I found the county... The amount was several times different, Chongzhen was angry, and then after a long time, he eased up, and there were tears on an old face full of wrinkles......

............

As Ning Daguan handed in his resignation for the third time, he was still induced, so Ning Zhiyuan continued to write it for the fourth time, anyway, whoever is the governor of Ningxia is his, and he is so domineering, so thank you is healthier.

And Hong Chengchou was not taken care of after trying to ask Ningxia for help after all, he was very aggrieved, knowing that it was unreliable to try to deal with the group of people in Gansu without help, the whole thing is simple, Shaanxi is still in chaos, and it will be the New Year soon, so let's have a peaceful New Year.

So Hong Chengchou talked about the anti-people in Shaanxi in the last two months of the fourth year of Chongzhen with a thunderous and critical attitude, beheaded nearly 10,000, and once again confirmed with his cruel means that I, Hong Chengchou, am not unable to fight, but... The other party used to be too powerful.

Shanxi is even more fierce than Shaanxi, Cao Wenzhao is really crazy, in the face of the division of the 36th battalion troops, he went up and cut down, of course, he has been chasing Wang Ziyong, and then let Wang Ziyong lose tens of thousands of people within two months, and the strength was sharply reduced to half,... Although it is still five times that of Cao Wenzhao, Cao Zongbing is not afraid and continues to kill......

............

Jinling is filled with a festive atmosphere of the New Year.

"Husband, you see that my clothes are not beautiful...... Li Xiangjun asked a little worriedly, naturally she didn't go to cut her in-laws, her in-laws Ning Zhiyuan hadn't seen it herself, but a few women were coming from Ningxia, Li Xiangjun was the only one who hadn't seen all the women, and she was inevitably a little nervous.

"It's not the most beautiful..."Ning Daguan looked at Shen Yin seriously and said after a moment, with a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Then what should Xiangjun wear...?" Li Xiangjun's eyes lit up and asked.

"Xiang-kun... It's most beautiful when you're not wearing clothes. Ning Daguan laughed.

Li Xiangjun blushed and glared at him angrily, and Luo Ning didn't know why she was also staring at Ning Daguan with her young lady......

"Husband, Yu'er's letter... Let you guess who's coming. Liu Ru said with two cute dimples exposed, blinking his brows.

“... Aren't they all here? Ning Daguan was stunned, they should all have come, "Didn't Yu'er come?" Ning Daguan's tone was a little regretful, and he said to himself, "She has been with her sister for so long, I don't know if her husband misses her very much, how cute you are lying in bed together..."

Liu Ru blushed and slapped Ning Zhiyuan's chest a few times with her little hand in anger, "Of course Yu'er is here, is she asking if you can still guess who there is?" ”

"That's good... That's the case..."Ning Daguan breathed a sigh of relief, "Chen Biao! The big guy must be here too, right? ”

“――――”

A team of 2,000 people escorted a carriage to slowly arrive, and the lead was really Chen Biao. Five hundred cavalry and one thousand fifteen hundred infantry, also in order not to expose too much strength.

This man's face darkened, but he seemed to be getting younger and younger, he called out to the boy innocently, his eyes were firm, and he watched the carriage drive into the backyard, and then Ning Zhiyuan asked people to arrange a place to live and talked with Chen Biao.

“... How many mothers-in-law have you married? "Ning Daguan has a face... Concern.

"It's only three or four..."Chen Biao looked very embarrassed with a worried face.

"Oh, not bad." Ning Daguan nodded, and said, "Is it that this year is still so much to marry." ”

Chen Biao was stunned, and then said with a bitter face, "Son, what are you talking about, didn't I have five mothers-in-law last time in Ningxia?" How can there be less and less..."

Ning Zhiyuan smiled, he strictly ordered his subordinates not to bully others, but people with high status in this world can always enjoy the most resources, whether it is women or wealth, this is an axiom, the changes of society and the evolution of the times cannot be stopped.

"Okay, tell me what's going on in Ningxia now."

"Oh, I took a look when I came, that is, there have been nearly 5,000 more soldiers who have reached the standard in the past six months..."Chen Biao suddenly paused and said in a low voice, "Childe, are our soldiers in Ningxia too few, only a few hundred thousand, should we relax the conditions for selecting soldiers, and now the growth of the army is too slow..."

Ning Daguan glared, and said angrily, "What do you want, do you still want all the people to fight the capital?" ”

Chen Biao smiled innocently, "Son, what are you talking about, one million mercenaries should be, you see that now Gansu is gone, Yansui has no soldiers, plus Guyuan and Ningxia, we originally accounted for four of the nine border towns, although the million soldiers and horses are a bit exaggerated, but not much, but why fight the capital?" Do you want to..."

"You pretend to be stupid again, and send you naked and send you back to Ningxia." Ning Daguan said coldly.

"Hehe, don't say it, don't say it, don't worry, there are millions of people in Ningxia now, but I only know Gongzi, you don't know what bullshit Chongzhen is." Chen Biao said with a smile, he really doesn't have the concept of imperial power in his heart, and the tens of millions of people in the northwest don't either, otherwise he can't say the opposite.

"Chen Biao, we don't oppose the Ming Dynasty, we just protect the people." Ning Zhiyuan looked at Chen Biao's unshaven face, "Do you know? ”

"I don't know." Chen Biao smiled and shook his head, "I just know to listen to my son." ”

"What about the prairie?" Ning Daguan asked, from the bottom of his heart, he was more concerned about Guanwai than Guannei, and even he felt that Sichuan was said to be killed by Zhang Xianzhong millions of people is better than being killed by Houjin, this is his racial consciousness.

"Lin Dan Khan is dying," Chen Biao said with a serious face, "Sure enough, as Gongzi said, those Mongolian tribes that were forcibly subdued were easily rebelled, and the army mutinied on the spot, if it weren't for the fact that Lin Dan Khan still had some ability, it is estimated that this would have died, and Houjin has already occupied most of Mongolia, but the three Ordos tribes still failed to come and join Houjin, and were blocked by Lin Dan Khan in the middle." ”

"Lin Dan Khan is already in defeat,... Well, it's a big defeat, so I guess we'll be able to win next year. Chen Biao said.

"Isn't there any intention of surrendering to us in Ordos...?" Ning Zhiyuan shook his head slightly, a little helpless, but he didn't have much loss, whether the Houjin people and horses can beat Ningxia now is still two words, they are not many in number, and they still have the advantage in weapons.

Weapons, speaking of weapons, Ning Daguan remembered that Sun Yuanhua was smuggled to Ningxia, so he asked, "By the way, how is the old man I sent over now." ”

“... It's okay if you don't say it, Childe. Chen Biao looked angry, "Then what kind of person is his grandmother, I often look for him and don't see anyone for a day, so I'm not afraid of death, I'll try a new gun, the token fell at home, the weapon didn't let me in, and the knife was on his neck or admit death, can't we still look at the face, there are still people who can imitate my face." ”

Ningxia's weapons are also very strictly controlled, and there are only a few people in Ningxia who have the permission to enter and exit at will, and there are portraits and tokens, which is to prevent the tokens from being lost.

"Who's free to see what you look like." Ning Daguan said with a look of contempt, and said in his heart that Sun Yuanhua still looks like a qualified scientist, after all, he forgets to sleep and eat! "I mean, what he's capable of, it's better to be able to kill one of you now with that explosive."

"Originally, the explosives were powerful enough to up, but the old man made a cannon, which means that it will hit wherever it is, and the power... I guess it's okay. Chen Biao said.
