readx; Zhu Youzhen is the most unbearable to see women crying, especially the tears of his beloved woman. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Rui'er shed tears, Zhu Youzhen panicked, and didn't know where he offended her. But after asking again and again, Rui'er didn't say why she was crying, which made Zhu Youzhen have no master.

After a while, Zhu Youzhen suddenly realized: "Do you think of your twin sister Lei'er?" ”

Rui'er nodded gloomily, and stopped talking, but finally couldn't help but say, "Long live, are you going to wipe out the White Lotus Sect?" They have committed such a serious sin, are you... Ah, no... Concubines shouldn't ask these questions, long live..."

Zhu Youzhen saw Rui'er's panicked expression, so he naturally guessed what she was thinking, and took her in his arms and comforted her gently: "What can't be asked?" The ancestral system has the clause that 'the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics', but some ancestral systems will have to be changed sooner or later. One day, for the husband, I want all women in the world to study, take the imperial examination, be an official, and contribute to the country like men, not to mention my women who don't let the eyebrows be shaved?

"As for the White Lotus Sect, that sect leader betrayed the country and collaborated with the enemy, and indeed committed the felony of Tianzi No. 1, and those who participated in it must not be forgiven. But there is currently no evidence that Lei'er was also involved, and according to her husband's understanding of Lei'er, she was just a little more and was used by the White Lotus Sect Master, but she was kind by nature. Whether it was in Wuchang or Xiangji Temple, she could kill her husband, but she didn't do that. Not only that, she would even pity the beggars on the side of the road, how could she do something to sell the people of the world? ”

Rui'er listened to Zhu Youzhen's analysis and couldn't help biting her lip and crying: "Rui'er doesn't believe that my sister will do that kind of thing!" If she really did it, she wouldn't have to make a move, and Rui'er and her father would also kill their relatives in righteousness... However, since the farewell of Xiangji Temple, there has been no news of Lei'er for more than half a year,..."

Zhu Youzhen also frowned and said, "My husband is also worried about this." The White Lotus Sect Master has many minions, and his hands and eyes are all over the sky, will he know that Lei'er deliberately spared her husband's life twice? If you knew, wouldn't you blame Leil for this, and even... Imprison her? ”

In fact, Zhu Youzhen didn't dare to say the worst possibility, but Rui'er couldn't stand it anymore, and immediately cried bitterly: "Long live, please save Lei'er!" No matter how many sins she committed, Rui'er is willing to bear it for her, as long as you save her from the clutches of the White Lotus Sect, Rui'er will lock her up, and won't let her go out for the rest of her life, and won't let her do anything wrong again..."

Zhu Youzhen hurriedly comforted: "Don't kill Rui'er's instructions, my husband is already doing it." Since the discovery of moles and spies, I have also been inspired: only allow them to use spies and undercover agents, can't they be used as husbands? Rest easy, maybe there will be news of Lei'er soon, and then your husband will definitely find a way to get her to you in perfect condition. ”

Rui'er was a little relieved and served Zhu Youzhen to lie down again. But this time Zhu Youzhen couldn't sleep, because Rui'er's pear blossoms were even more soft and lovely under the rain, so he couldn't help but be furious, and threw her down on the dragon bed in Rui'er's exclamation.

After the rain dispersed and the clouds subsided, Zhu Youzhen still stroked Rui'er's face with pity and said, "Alas, my Rui'er has lost weight!" Don't worry too much, Lei'er is so kind, God will bless her well. ”

Rui'er hurriedly said: "Long live the misunderstanding, Rui'er is not only worried because she misses Lei'er. In the past few months, the treasury has spent money like water, and it will not work in the long run! ”

Speaking of the inner silver, Zhu Youzhen also frowned. Although the seizure of Wei Zhongxian and other criminals, coupled with the search for the silver hidden and transferred by the eunuchs, there were more than 50 million taels in the inner treasury at the most, but now nearly 20 million taels have been spent. Although Rui'er followed Zhu Youzhen's instructions and was extremely strict with the inner treasury, there were several major expenses that could not be saved in any case.

The first is to expand the Jingshi, rebuild the Tonghui River and build the Shanhaiguan City, these three major projects need at least 10 million taels, and now more than 5 million taels have been spent, and the project is still early from completion, and the budget of 10 million taels is not necessarily enough.

The second is the establishment of hospitals and the launch of rodent eradication campaigns. Under the auspices of Bao Yulian, Tai Hospital has begun to bring the experience of Jingshi to the whole country. However, due to the zero foundation of the "government-run hospital", whether it is renting a venue, recruiting Langzhong, or opening a pharmacy, it requires a lot of silver, and 2 million taels have been spent so far. Since there is no medical fee, there is no money in medicine, and the silver taels that have been paid for rodent extermination, the expenditure on medical and health care is far greater than the income, and the silver will only be more and more spent in the future.

The third is the large-scale construction of firearms. Originally, the Ministry of Industry was responsible for the construction of firearms in the imperial court, but with the explosion of Wang Gongchang, all the firearms and ammunition stored in the Beijing Division were wiped out. Houjin didn't know when it would come, and the imperial court had no money, so it was obviously too late to count on the Ministry of Industry to "rebuild after the disaster", and the manufacturing level of the Ministry of Industry could not meet Zhu Youzhen's requirements at all.

So Zhu Youzhen quickly moved the Qinwangzhuang Arsenal to Beijing, and recruited craftsmen, purchased a large number of raw materials, and made firearms and ammunition by surprise. In the past, there were hundreds of craftsmen in the Qinwangzhuang Arsenal, but now there are nearly 10,000, and the daily consumption of raw materials is also very amazing. So far, at least more than two million taels of silver have been spent.

The fourth is to fulfill the agreement with Portugal and purchase high-breed war horses, cannons and warships. Although the goods have not yet arrived, the payment of five million taels must be set aside.

In addition to these four major items, disasters occurred in various places, as well as some officials and soldiers were in arrears, and the household department could not come up with a penny of silver, and Zhu Youzhen had to squeeze out the internal money. If it weren't for Rui'er's strict control, sometimes even Zhu Youzhen would have refused to ask for silver, not to mention 20 million taels, 30 million taels would have been spent.

However, Zhu Youzhen's idea of taking the Wuzhou Trading Company as the leader, vigorously developing commerce, collecting commercial taxes and paying them into the inner treasury, although the idea is good, it is far from quenching the thirst of the near. After all, the business of Wuzhou Trading Company is still basically limited to Jingshi, and it still has little impact on the business pattern of the entire empire. Now if you want to officially launch the commercial tax, you will still encounter great resistance, and in a few years, don't think about collecting the money. Moreover, in order to make the Wuzhou trading company better develop, Zhu Youzhen also returned the taxes that should have been paid to Zhu Cunqi, so there is still no income in this area.

As for other sources of domestic silver, such as salt tax, mining tax, etc., first, there are various reasons that cannot be collected at all; The second is that even if it is collected, it will be a drop in the bucket. So it's no wonder Rui'er is worried, Zhu Youzhen must think of a way to greatly replenish the inner treasury, otherwise his various reforms will be unsustainable.

Thinking of this, Zhu Youzhen no longer had the heart to enjoy it in the gentle township, he had to take Rui'er's jade arm and said with a wry smile: "The husband has already let the two old men, Yuan Keli and Wang Zaijin, wait in the Heart Cultivation Palace, it seems that there is a trick that must be used now." It is said that when a monk hits the clock for a day, he does it for the emperor of the husband, which is much more bitter than the monk! ”
