Chapter 156: Waste Reuse, the old people in the palace are also of great use
Hearing the words of the county magistrate, all the officials couldn't help but glance at each other. "Everyone, do you think that you can show weakness first, and then poke at all annihilations with thunderous means, how can the Emperor Taishang, who has such means, not know what we are doing in secret? If we don't go along with Your Majesty's wishes, how will he treat us? I hope you will think about it for yourself. The old decay took the first step and said goodbye. Or just now the old man opened his mouth first, and after saying this, the old man took the front placket and got off the school platform, and everyone on the stage looked at each other speechlessly, knowing that the careful thinking of himself and others was afraid that he had already been seen through by the emperor.
"Today, in the border town of Xuanfu, one eunuch guarding the town, four garrison eunuchs and one hundred and thirty-nine people with their claws and hats have all been executed, and the remaining evil ones are all detained in the barracks outside the city." Yuan Bin reported to Zhu Qizhen, who was sitting on the chair and thoughtful. "As for those maids, there are a total of three hundred and ninety-five people, except for nearly half of them who are women who have relatives in Xuanfu, the rest are all purchased by the eunuchs from all over the country, and some are also sold to Xuanfu by people's teeth."
Seeing Zhu Qizhen's face slightly gloomy, Yuan Bin wiped the sweat on his forehead and spoke faster. "Wechen has inquired in detail, and about fifty-seven people know about their hometowns, and most of the others have left their hometowns since they were children, and they don't know who their surnames are and who their parents are."
"In that case, let them stay first, and let them live in the empty mansions for the time being, and wait for me to think about what to do with them in the future." Zhu Qizhen touched his chin and commanded Yuan Bin.
"As for those eunuch slaves who are detained in the barracks outside the city, I am of great use, and you must be strictly guarded so that no one escapes." Zhu Luzhen glanced at it, the bad water rushed up, and he commanded Wang Jinchang again. "If anyone dares to make trouble, you're welcome, they'll all be slaughtered."
Hearing Zhu Qizhen's words, Wang Jinchang couldn't help grinning respectfully, but he kept slandering in his heart, which bastard said that the emperor was a soft-hearted lord? Unless my brother is blind and deaf now, it's almost the same.
"Luo Lao Aiqing, I know that since last year, the tile spur soldiers have been wreaking havoc in my Xuanfu, causing many people to be displaced, and the city walls are damaged everywhere, and they have not been restored to the old view, but is there such a thing?" Zhu Qizhen turned his head to the side, and Luo Hengxin, who was a little stunned to take the iced white fungus porridge from the plate brought by an old palace maid who was about fifty years old, asked.
-------------------- looked at the wrinkled old face, and was slandering Zhu Qizhen, the taste of the emperor's maid, was too heavy in his heart, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses, and he quickly got up. "Exactly, at present, there are a lot of damage to the left and right guards, as well as the border fortresses, and even the Great Wall has been affected......"
"Have you ever calculated how many taels of silver you will need to restore the old view?" Zhu Qizhen didn't know Luo Hengxin's own taste, and he was also curious why this old Luo Aiqing kept looking at this old palace maid, could it be that this old guy was an old woman who couldn't control it?
Luo Hengxin replied: "The old minister has already inspected everywhere, and if he wants to restore the old view, the stones, materials, civil service, rations and other items add up, and they must be at least 150,000 taels of silver. ”
Lao Chen estimated that it would take at least 5,000 strong laborers and three to five months to restore its original appearance. However, it is now the middle of summer, and everything is complicated in the people's homes, and most of the battle period for this year has been used. If you do it again, it will be bad for the people, and I hope Your Majesty will be cautious. ”
Luo Hengxin's words were really for Zhu Qizhen's overall consideration, for fear that Zhu Qizhen, the emperor, would get carried away, and he had just done a good thing for the people, and he would twist his ass and do a bunch of bad things, which would really be a bad dish.
Zhu Qizhen heard Luo Hengxin say it so clearly, he naturally knew what kind of mind he had, and couldn't help but smile and nodded. "It doesn't matter, you order all the places to prepare first, and I will give you at least three thousand servants for a month at most. And the silver two don't need to be careful, I just need to be responsible. The dirty money seized from the hands of those eunuchs, in addition to the compensation, was left, and most of it was used as funds for the trading company. More than 100,000 taels of silver can still be drawn. ”
Hearing this, Luo Hengxin's eyes lit up, fortunately, it seems that the Emperor Taishang did not have the intention of completely swallowing the money alone, at least he could take out more than 100,000 taels, this alone was enough to make Luo Heng's confidence fall on the big stone, but his face was still a little puzzled. "Your Majesty, is it not the slaves and companions of the eunuchs who are now living in the barracks? But there were only about 2,000 of them. ”
"Yes, it's only more than 2,000, anyway, there is still a month to go, in this month, the edict will be issued to all states and counties, but all bullies and ruffians, who are not imprisoned because of their minor crimes, but have been harassing the place all the year round, can be locked up in Xuanfu and enter this camp." The corners of Zhu Qizhen's mouth were full of evil smiles, and Luo Hengxin couldn't help but shiver, it seems that the Emperor Taishang has long used those unlucky guys as unpaid labor for the destruction of city walls in various parts of Xiuxuan Mansion.
Seeing everyone looking at him speechlessly, Zhu Qizhen was not the slightest bit embarrassed. "Naturally, I won't raise them in vain, and I have done so many bad things, although they are only accomplices, but if I don't punish them, wouldn't it be too partial to them. When the time comes, I will hand them over to you and let them undergo labor reform. Repent of everything you have done in the past, and use your actual actions to atone for your past mistakes. Zhu Qizhen couldn't help but play with a new term: labor reform.
"Guo Shun, your stepson, I think he should also know what it means to be miserable, so let him also go to labor reform, so as to save you from causing trouble all day long and ruining the reputation of the court, understand?"
Guo Shun, who had been standing obediently behind Zhu Qizhen and didn't even dare to sit down, heard this, and couldn't help but sweat in his head, and hurriedly bowed down: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty can think so much about the slave stepson, and not kill him, it is already a great grace." The slave maid is really ......, "Fortunately, fortunately, the Emperor Taishang just let that little bastard go to labor reform."
After all, he Guo Shun is such a stepson now, and he is his brother's bloodline, and they have been together for more than ten years, although the two are not biological father and son, but the relationship is no worse than that of biological father and son, otherwise, how could he Guo Shun be so spoiled by this son?
And after today's bloody public trial, Guo Shun was already thinking in his heart that although Guo Rui's stinky boy could not die this time, he would at least have to shed his skin, and I was afraid that it would be inevitable to be fitted with side plugs. I was sad in my heart, but who expected Zhu Qizhen to come up with such a sentence, how could Guo Shun not be overjoyed.
Those house slaves have been classified as misdemeanor punishments by the Emperor Taishang, and the Emperor Taishang's words are now out of the air, which is equivalent to throwing his son over, although he will have to endure several months of hard labor, with Guo Rui's small body with fine skin and tender flesh, he will definitely have to suffer a lot, but Guo Shun also knows very well that if that guy continues to be so unscrupulous, I am afraid that the end will not be much better than the hundred or so corpses lying in the barracks today. In a word, if you beat yourself, you feel distressed, and you will be beaten by others, and you will not be annoyed or annoyed.
Since the Emperor Taishang has let Guo Rui live, thinking about it, others will definitely not dare to disobey the Emperor's thoughts.
"Maybe after this ordeal, that stinky boy can understand that there are people outside the world, there is a sky outside the sky, and no matter how domineering he is, he should have a head." Thinking about it like this, Guo Shun was a little grateful in his heart, and Zhu Qizhen cleaned up his stepson.
After -------------------- ordered everything, Zhu Qizhen's eyes fell on Na Ruan Lang and the others. His fingers tapped lightly on the chair, and he said, "Ruan Lang, you and others are all the last ones to live today, otherwise, my imperial brother would not have sent you to Xuanfu to serve me." ”
"Today, I have some important tasks that I am going to entrust to Yu Er and others."
Ruan Lang, who was close to the age of sixties, heard this, and hurriedly walked out with the dozen or so eunuchs who were named and enshrined by the emperor's side, and fell to the ground. "His Majesty the Emperor only has something to order, how dare the slaves and maids do not do their best?"
"I know that before you came to Xuanfu, you stayed in the position of the young eunuch of the Divine Palace for nearly ten years, and you never formed a party or acted for personal gain, and you were able to do this in the palace, and you were able to sit firmly in the position of the young eunuch for ten years. This shows that you are quite capable. Zhu Qizhen looked at the old eunuch with white eyebrows, and his voice was much softer. And what kind of person you are, I know very well in my heart, and it is really for this reason that I decided to entrust this important task to you. ”
Zhu Qizhen didn't say anything explicitly, and everyone in the hall couldn't help but look puzzled, and they couldn't understand what Zhu Qizhen wanted these old eunuchs to do.
"Today, I killed Yan Shun and other eunuchs who caused trouble to the people of the country, although I was able to get away with the pleasure of the moment, but I also left some trouble." Zhu Qizhen swept some of the civil and military leaders of the Xuanfu in the hall and said: "The border town of Xuanfu is the weight of my Ming Dynasty's defense, which is not comparable to the unusual inland, and I have killed them today, but it is inevitable that I will send eunuchs to take over the positions of Yan Shun and others today." ”
"Although I am not a soft-hearted person, I don't want to kill too much to hurt the peace of heaven. And you and the others are all old people in the palace, and they are surnames, and I know very well that it is better for my imperial brother to send others here than to let you take over the position of Yan Shun and others. Guarding the eunuchs and garrison eunuchs for the Xuanfu, serving the court, and sharing worries for me, I don't know if you are willing? Zhu Qizhen's hand stroked his eyebrows, and his eyes swept over Ruan Lang and the others one by one.
Hearing this, all the Xuanfu civil and military forces present, including Na Ruan Lang and others, couldn't help but let Zhu Qizhen's words stand stunned on the spot.
