Chapter 324: The Truth Revealed (Part II)

- In the Imperial Palace, the officers waited until they were anxious to hear a loud message: "Your Majesty has arrived!" ”

The two or three hundred officers hurriedly saluted together, and called it 'Shengshou'.

"Let's get flat!" Zhao Zhen agreed with a smile, then sat down on the Sumeru chair, and his eyes swept over the people: "You are all the fathers, some of the ancestors are the founding fathers, at least the parents also fought the battle of the Yuanyuan, and they all contribute to the society." Therefore, you and the widow can also be called the friendship of the world, and this relationship is definitely closer and closer than ordinary people. ”

The generals didn't dare to join the group, but they looked proud.

"The widow also trusts you very much, and asks you to lead the troops for the widow, so that I can sleep peacefully, right?"

Zhao Zhen's smile warmed people's hearts, and the generals trembled slightly with excitement, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, only we are here, and the Great Song Dynasty will be stable, Your Majesty only needs to rest assured." ”

"Really?" Zhao Zhen smiled faintly.

"Really!" The generals will be the same.

"Let the widow rest assured," Zhao Zhen nodded and said: "First of all, it is the word 'sincerity', you pat your chest and say, are you really honest with the widow?" ”

Now, even a fool can hear that the official family has something to say. Thinking of the visions of today, the congregation will be in a state of utterance.

"I believe you are sincere to the widow." Zhao Zhen smiled: "But what about the Qincha who 'came in person'? Is it honest too? Didn't you bully them when they were young and coaxed them? ”

"This ......" The congregation will be even more speechless.

"Hehehe......" Zhao Zhen said with a smile unchanged: "It's also to blame the widow, sending two hairy boys to run errands, it is estimated that the words are a little offensive, which annoys you, so you are joking with them, right?" ”

"This ......" Many people sweat on their faces. Although Zhao Zhen has always been soft-spoken. The pressure on them is increasing, making it difficult for them to breathe. Obviously, the official family knows everything.

"Both boys are doing their first errands. If you are offended, you will not be able to make amends. Zhao Zhen really stood up and arched his hand.

How dare the generals hold it up, and quickly avoid it. He said, "I'm afraid." ”

"There's nothing to be afraid of, you are seniors, don't be like juniors." Zhao Zhen smiled and said: "The widow has already called them back for reflection, you see, don't you stop joking." Seeing that the generals were still confused, or rather, pretending to be confused, he couldn't help but smile and said coldly: "Collect the trick......"

This sound caused the temperature in the hall to plummet. The generals came from Sanfu to Sanjiu, not only immediately sweating, but also began to tremble.

"Yes. Drums don't need to be hammered. Zhao Zhen's tone was still flat. But when the generals heard it, they had a creepy feeling: "This Bianjing City is not a big deal." Within a radius of dozens of miles, banging gongs in the east and singing operas in the west, what can you hide from others? What's more, it's still a big drama with thousands of people at every turn, I'm afraid that only the blind and deaf don't notice it, right? After a pause, he said, "Does the widow seem to be deaf and dumb?" ”

The generals shook their heads together.

"In that case, are you going to let the widow re-check, or do you take the initiative to say it yourself?" Zhao Zhen smiled and said: "If you let the widow continue to investigate, I will send a decree to gather all the forbidden troops together, and send out all the officials of the six departments and twenty-four divisions of the three provinces. After a pause, he said: "But this is too troublesome, the widow has never liked tossing, so I still hope that you will say, if you don't know it yourself, call the people who pay your salary, they will definitely know it......"

"People want to save face," Seeing that someone was about to speak, Zhao Zhen waved his hand and said: "Saying this kind of thing in public is shameless." So you don't have to say, I'll ask someone to give you pen and paper, and then give you an envelope, and you can write as you want......" At this time, a small yellow door held a stick of incense, and Zhao Zhen said: "A stick of incense is enough, right?" ”

"That's enough...... the generals whispered.

"The widow is still the same sentence." Zhao Zhen said in a deep voice: "Don't blame the past, even if there is only one living person in your camp, you won't blame if you say you don't blame." But dare to hide it? If you are punished for several crimes, no one can blame you, right? He flicked his sleeves and said, "Think about it." Xiao Huangmen began to distribute paper and pencils, and Zhao Zhen got up and left.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty......" The generals have been beaten into fingers by the official family.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"It's a good combination of soft and hard, Your Majesty has made good means ......" Fu Bi greeted Zhao Zhen with admiration: "It turns out that as long as Your Majesty cheers up, no one in the Great Song Dynasty can mess around." ”

"You don't have to put a top hat on me." Zhao Zhen took the teacup offered by Hu Yan, took a sip and handed it back: "There is a saying that 'one person governs the family, and a hundred people govern the county', this huge Song Dynasty, tens of thousands of people are too few to govern, and the widow is three heads and six arms, how many people can be seen?" It is still necessary for the monarch and the ministers to work with one heart and one mind. ”

Fu Bi's eyes were a little moist.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Zhen looked at him and said.

"The old minister seems to see the high-spirited appearance of the official family when he was young." Fu Bi choked up and said, "I've been waiting for many years, and I'm finally looking forward to it again." ”

"When you were young...... Zhao Zhen's eyes were a little confused and said: "Why don't you want to cheer up, but it's a pity that either the minister and I set up seedlings, which makes people feel chilling; Either the minister is ambitious and talented, which makes people discouraged, alas...... Twenty or thirty years, just like that. ”

Fu Bi knew that what Zhao Zhen said was chilling was Lu Yijian and Xia Zhu. What makes people discouraged is Fan Zhongyan...... These famous ministers of the year, with the passage of time, have shown their success. Zhao Zhen always thought that he was unladylike and was delayed by them.

"Jiang Ziya is eighty years old, Wang Jian is seventy years old, the official family is much younger than them, as long as you cheer up, it's not too late." Fu Bi encouraged Zhao Zhen and said: "The Great Song Dynasty is now prosperous and worried, and all kinds of disadvantages are prosperous, and they are waiting for the official family to reform the old and cloth the new, and sweep away the decline!" ”

"Well," Zhao Zhen was also puffed up and said: "Yes, you have to cheer up, not for anything else, even if it is an unborn prince, you have to, haha......" After enduring these days, he still couldn't hold back and told Fu Bi.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty......" Fu Bi said with a deep bow.

After talking for a while, Zhao Zhen asked Hu Yan on the side: "Is it time?" ”

"It's already here." Hu Yandui said softly.

"Is it all written?"

"The old slave went and took a look." Mr. Hu turned out, and after a while, he came back with a stack of envelopes: "I have collected them." ”

"Aiqing, take a look." Zhao Zhen motioned to Fu Bi and said, "How much did you spit out this time?" ”

"Yes." Fu Bi got up and took the tray, opened the stack of envelopes, took out the letterheads, flattened them one by one and laid them on the big case, and when all the papers were arranged, he read softly:

"The First Army of the Tianwu Left Chamber, rated at 2,497 people, is really ...... One thousand six hundred and thirty people. ”

"The Second Army of the Tianwu Left Chamber, rated at 2,477 people, actually has 1,510 people."

"The Third Army of the Tianwu Left Chamber, rated at 2,480 people, there are 1,490 people."

"The First Army of the Right Carriage of Tianwu, rated ......"

He was reading here, and the two little yellow doors were quickly calculating over there, counting the total amount and the real number.

The statistics have not yet come out, just listening to the individual figures of each army, Zhao Zhen is already a little fainting, his two slender arms, holding the edge of the imperial case, his eyes are closed, and his face is as cold as iron.

Seeing the beads of sweat rolling on the official's face, Manager Hu quickly soaked the towel in ice water, took it out and twisted it gently, and gently printed the beads of sweat on his face.

Zhao Zhen didn't seem to exist at all, only the number in his ears and the sound of abacus.

The sound of the abacus was so clear, through the layers of veils, it reached the ears of the generals in the front hall. It was like a magic voice urging life, and they were silent when they heard it.

Suddenly, the sound of abacus stopped, there was silence in the veil, and the heartbeats of all the generals were about to suffocate.

"Your Majesty, according to statistics, the total number of forbidden troops in Beijing is 238,100, and the total number reported by each general is 187,000 and 300." Fu Bi reported softly.

Zhao Zhen was silent for a long time before he slowly asked, "What's the difference?" ”

"The difference is, fifty thousand and eight hundred."

With a 'snap', the jade pen holder in Zhao Zhen's hand fell to the ground and shattered.

"50,000 people, how much does it cost the imperial court every year?" He asked faintly.

"A forbidden soldier is given two stone of grain a month, fifty taels of money a year, a single cotton coat, three catties of salt, five hundred catties of charcoal, and miscellaneous gifts...... Not counting armor and horses, only money, food and clothing, about 150 a year can raise a forbidden soldier. Fu Bi said softly: "Fifty thousand people is, seven and a half million ......."

"Seven hundred, five hundred thousand, through!" Zhao Zhen's hands burst into green tendons, and he slammed them on the table, and blood flowed when he landed.

I really don't know if I don't check, I was shocked when I checked it, these people devoured the blood of soldiers, to the point of madness!

Hu Yandui hurriedly stepped forward to check on the official's injury, but was pushed away by Zhao Zhen. Holding on to the edge of the table, Zhao Zhen's face was pale, and his eyes breathed fire: "This is still the forbidden army under the noses of the widows, there are still 600,000 people who are not in the capital, and there are 700,000 Xiang troops, how many people have they swallowed, this Great Song Dynasty...... Who the hell is in the world?! "No matter how elegant the emperor is, he can't accept this cruel reality.

However, according to the situation grasped by Fu Bi, the shortage of the forbidden army in Beijing is actually more, and it should be about 30 percent...... So they still saved a fluke and didn't cut out those indiscriminate military dependents and idlers.

And the degree of shortage of the forbidden army in the capital is better than that of the forbidden army on Hebei Road, and it is said that the shortage there has reached forty percent, or even half!

That is why he wants to disarm, no matter what the cost. If you don't cut it, you really want to lose the country! ――
