Chapter 13: Good news
"If you dare to disobey your orders, you will rest for one night today and serve it tomorrow."
On the surface, Yang Tingjian is still a polite and polite son, because he has inherited the instinctive consciousness of this body, but he still has a modern **& silk man stuffy heart in his heart.
"Then the slave family will take the son to Zhegui Tower...... Hurry up and bring Childe's things inside. ”
Jin inlaid jade turned back step by step, and took Yang Tingjian to his boudoir, which was elegantly and classically furnished, which was very satisfying to Yang Tingjian. The desks and bookcases in the room are also readily available, but there is obviously a faint fragrance of women in this room, Yang Tingjian thought it was from the gold inlaid jade, and did not continue to pay attention to it.
"Nice place, thanks to the hostess for her kindness."
"Childe, the slave family is called Jin Jiyu, and the nickname is Wan'er, please call the slave family's nickname."
After Jin Jianyu finished speaking, he also felt that his face was hot, his nickname was Wan'er, but it was a secret, except for his father, he only told Yang Tingjian a strange man. Jin Zhuyu couldn't help but think secretly: "It seems that I really found the person I like in this life, otherwise I wouldn't have unconsciously said my name." ”
"Wan'er, good name...... When the wind blows the flowers and dews Qingxu, the windows are hung with red silk curtains. The sachet contains smoke and embroidery, and the green feather brushes the green glass. ”
"Childe...... This poem is so beautiful, is it given to the slave family? ”
"Sort of! This poem is about Tang Shangguan Wan'er, it just so happens that Wan'er has the same name as her, and you have a stunning face no less than Shangguan Wan'er. ”
This voice made the soul of Jin Jiaoyu fly, almost unstable on his feet, Jin Zhuyu is also a character who has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and hurriedly stabilized his mind, and then in order to avoid his own gaffe, he lost face in front of his intended person, so he hurriedly said goodbye and left:
"Thank you Childe for the compliment, the slave family will prepare wine and food for Childe."
……
In the Forbidden City's Heart Cultivation Palace, Chongzhen put down his arm that had been numb from writing, stood up and paced in the hall, Yang He's appeasement had failed, and all the thieves rebelled and conquered the city in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces.
"Yang He has the ability, what kind of punishment will he give when he comes back this time? Wang Chengen, you can talk about it. ”
"The old slave doesn't dare to discuss military affairs, so it's better for His Majesty to make up his mind!"
Chongzhen smiled "hehe" and continued:
"Let me say that I will forgive you without sin."
"The old slave commands, I think this Yang He is still capable, and his political performance is not bad, although his appeasement strategy did not work, mainly because we have no money and money to settle those displaced people, which makes those displaced people surrender and rebel, so I think it is okay to demote Yang He out of Beijing."
Chongzhen listened to Wang Chengen's words, noncommittal, but rubbed his wrist while walking, this is thousands of pieces of music every day, Chongzhen is personally experienced, since he ascended the throne, Chongzhen has not had a day off, it can be said that Chongzhen in order to govern the stormy Ming Dynasty, is exhausted, food and clothes.
Chongzhen, who is just twenty-one years old, already has crow's feet, and a few strands of gray hair have been added to his temples, but Daming is constantly suffering from natural disasters, Tartars frequently detain and loot, and thieves are everywhere in several provinces in the northwest.
The most important thing is that Chongzhen has no money in his hands, Daming earns four million taels a year, and the annual military salary spent in Liaodong alone is as high as seven million taels, and the military town of Liaodong has become the biggest bloodsampire in Daming, sucking up the last trace of strength of Daming.
Chongzhen, who has no money and no food in his hands, what can he do, the disaster cannot be relieved, the army cannot be appeased, and he can only watch the thieves and Tartars wreak havoc in the territory of the Ming Dynasty.
Zhang Dai of the Ming Dynasty said in the "Book of Stone Kui": There are different kings who have died in ancient times, including those who died with wine, those who died with sex, those who died with tyranny, those who died with luxury, and those who died with military force. I am the first emperor, anxious to seek treatment, food and clothing; Frugal and hardworking, there is no room for nothing! That is, the Lord of the Ancient Order, there is no way to surpass it! He actually used the thief to die! All my people, thinking about the matter of Jiashen in March, did not not vomit blood, and thought that the death of my first emperor on the same day was healing
Later generations analyzed why Chongzhen died for many reasons, some said that Chongzhen was stubborn, suspicious by nature, mean and unkind, these people were all said after the establishment of the Qing Dynasty, and they were simply nonsense under the rule of the Manchu Dynasty.
In fact, the most important thing in the fall of the Ming Dynasty was the financial collapse, the fundamental point was that there was a problem with taxes, the scholars of the Ming Dynasty were exempt from taxes, and the gentry class held 80% of the wealth of the Ming Dynasty, but did not pay taxes. And 90% of the people only have 20% of the wealth, but they are asked to worship the entire Ming Dynasty, this tax system does not change, even the gods will not be able to save the Ming Dynasty.
The wealth of Jiangnan, the disasters are relatively few, even in the more than ten years of the Chongzhen period, the natural disasters in the south of the Yangtze River are few. As long as "the officials and gentry pay the grain as one", the state will have money and grain to relieve the disaster and reorganize the army, but will these vested interests pay taxes? Without iron-blooded means, of course it can't be.
What natural and man-made disasters, the Tartars frequently knock on the gates, these are not the most important, as long as the country has sufficient money and food, state affairs will have a lot to do, and everything will be rested without money.
"Knock knock...... Knock Knock...... Good news...... Good news......"
A eunuch held a document in his hand and quickly ran towards the Palace of Raising the Heart, he shouted while running, and the other eunuchs and palace maids in the palace stopped curiously, stopped and watched, the current Ming Dynasty is fighting a battle and losing a battle, and today finally came a document of success, I don't know if it was sent by those civil ministers and military generals to fool the emperor.
"Wang Chengen, quick, go out and have a look......"
Wang Chengen hurriedly ran out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and after waiting for the eunuch who had reported the good news to arrive at the door of the Heart Cultivation Palace, he hurriedly took the good news and ran into the Heart Cultivation Palace.
"Your Majesty, good news is coming."
Chongzhen hurriedly turned to the good news handed over by Wang Chengen looked carefully, the more Chongzhen looked at it, the more surprised he became, and his originally somewhat pale face suddenly had a trace of blood, and his expression became excited:
"Okay, what a Yang Tingjian, dignified Zhejiang Jiaxing Jinke Xie Yuan, can actually behead the chief Jiayin, who is two years younger than me, he is really a young hero, this chief is the head, and the rest is a rabble."
Chongzhen still thinks about these thieves too simply, as long as the natural disasters continue, even if Yang Tingjian kills Wang Jiayin, a Wang Ziyong will come out tomorrow, and another Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong will come out the day after tomorrow.
"Old slave congratulations to Your Majesty."
"Well, Wang Chengen, the good news said that Yang Tingjian has come to the capital to take the exam, such a talent with both civil and military skills, I can't miss it, why don't you bring Yang Tingjian to see me?"
