Yang Reform and the others Fang Hongzan and the two little eunuchs all went out, and then said to Wang Chengen: "Big companion, this matter was originally going to send a henchman, and it was most appropriate for you to go, so I was relieved, but I thought about it and felt that this was a dirty matter, so I had to say that the official wanted to say that the historian wanted to record this matter in history, so I thought it would be better not to let you go." ”

To tell the truth, Yang Reform still has a lot of feelings for Wang Chengen, who watched himself grow up, and saw himself ascend to the throne, and finally followed himself to hang himself in the coal mountain, this trust, that may belong to him except for himself. Therefore, Yang Reform does not want such a dirty matter to be recorded on Wang Chengen's head in the future history.

Wang Chengen listened to Yang Reform's words, and the little grievance in his heart suddenly disappeared, and he said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you really killed the slave maid." "I'm crying and laughing as I speak. These expressions are gathered on the face, which is really rich enough.

Yang Gai looked at it and said, "Companion, don't cry, by the way, I asked you to count the money, treasures, calligraphy and paintings, gold and stones, how did you clean up?" ”

Wang Chengen wiped his tears and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the slaves and maids have almost counted, in terms of silver, it is equivalent to about five or six million taels of silver, there are about 13,000 pieces of calligraphy and painting collection, about 28,000 pieces of gold, stone and jade collection, and about two or three hundred houses of treasures, wood, bronze, porcelain, and tribute, and other household goods, clothing, utensils, flags, swords, armor, etc. are not counted. "[The palace collection is all fiction]

"So much?" Yang exclaimed. Yang Reform didn't expect this thing to be counted in the house, how many things do you need? I'm afraid the Palace Museum doesn't have so many things.

Think about it again, isn't this Palace Museum the Forbidden City?

Think about it again, didn't you say that there are more than 1.5 million cultural relics when you visited the Palace Museum before? How can there be tens of thousands of pieces now?

Thinking about it again, I think it's right, the cultural relics in the museum in the 21st century, I'm afraid that the clothes and pants on my body are counted in it, and even the chair I sit on, the bed I sleep on, and the guy who eats are probably also cultural relics, but now it is absolutely impossible to be regarded as cultural relics, and the tens of thousands of pieces of collection that Wang Chengen said should be something that can be obtained in the palace.

"Back to Your Majesty, this is all slowly accumulated by the previous emperors, there are so many, except for some of the rewards over the years, the things in the palace are basically only in and out."

"Yes! The accumulation of more than 200 years in the Ming Dynasty doesn't seem too much. Yang Gengai muttered to himself softly, his eyes staring into the distance without focus, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a long time, Yang Reform's gaze was withdrawn from the blank distance, focusing on Wang Chengen, and said: "Big companion, what about these things, I thought about it, and the palace that always collects it can't play its role, and now I have just ascended to the great treasure, and the inside and outside are not at peace, I'm afraid that the money is still behind, and you know that the silver that can be collected is not enough at all, so I thought, pick some out of these collections, find a suitable person to sell outside, and exchange some silver for a long time." ”

Wang Chengen was dumbfounded, and said with a sad face: "Your Majesty, no! Your Majesty, if you do so, you will lose the face of the royal family...... This, no! "Wang Chengen is really anxious, there has always been only good things from outside to move to the palace, and there has never been a reason to move out of the palace. If you want to say this, where will this royal face go?

Yang Gai pressed his hand and said, "Don't cry, I know that selling the collection in the palace is not a decent thing, but I am also helpless!" Alas~ Big friend, you also know that now there is no peace inside and outside, all you want is a large amount of silver, and I really have no way to get money, so I rely on the money from the treasury to the inner money, I'm afraid that even those wealthy people in the south can't compare, so it's the only way...... So be it, those with obvious royal imprints don't take them out for money first, and exchange those that are not very noticeable. That's it, you find someone who is familiar with antique collecting, capable and reliable, to run this thing. ”

After thinking about it, Yang Gengai smiled and said: "Hehe, big companion, in fact, what if outsiders know about this matter, at most, I just say that I, the emperor, am greedy for money, what else can I do?" ”

Wang Chengen was crying that sadly, really, this all said that the emperor was good, but he had only been the emperor for a few days, and in order to raise money, he even had to take out the things in the palace to exchange for money, which had to be said...... Alas! Since the emperor thinks so, he can only do so. It's all to blame for those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, who have embezzled all the taxes that should be paid, so that now the treasury has no money, and a large group of officials are looking at the internal money.

After setting a few development plans, Yang Reform felt that his brain was not enough, and he felt a little terrible when he thought about it, he had some money, which seemed to be a lot, but thinking about the natural disasters at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the huge war expenses, and the astronomical amount of food, Yang Reform felt that his scalp was numb.

Yang Reform thought about it, and felt that he had some money, but it was definitely not enough, and he needed more ways to make money, on the other hand, the armed forces themselves did not have a little spectrum, and even the secret agencies of Jinyiwei and Dongchang did not know much, and they did not have a plan, this is not good, next year is the first year of Chongzhen, and the Qing army will enter the customs in the second year of Chongzhen, so I have to prepare and prepare.

This, I went to school and read a lot of books about the late Ming Dynasty, which introduced history.

Yang Reform remembered again, next year Yuan Chonghuan will kill Mao Wenlong, this is a cause that led to the later Qing army to enter the customs and loot, without Mao Wenlong to contain over there, the Qing army can enter the customs whenever they want, Mao Wenlong's godson generals, but they are all the pioneers of the Ming Dynasty later, and they must not let Yuan Chonghuan kill Mao Wenlong.

Gotta figure figure it out! Yang Gengai rubbed his temples, it was not an ordinary pain. If you want to control the military force, you have to fight with the wild boar skin, you have to train the new army, I am afraid that you can't go into battle shirtless like this, you have to find someone who understands military affairs and is reliable to train the new army for yourself, you are the emperor, you can't soak in the barracks every day and be a soldier!

After thinking about it, I thought of a person, that is Sun Chengzong, this is a bull b, and he is also a person who understands military affairs, please ask him to be right, and then pick up some suggestions from the side, it is estimated that this new army can also be trained.

Yang Reform, an otaku who has been reading time-traveling novels all year round, quickly set several development plans through his own judgment, and selected Sun Chengzong as his most reliable person in the military.

Thinking of this, Yang Gai immediately started to write a letter. If you want to talk about brush words, Yang also participated in the special class when he was in primary and middle school, and the brush words are so-so, twisted and twisted, and they can still be seen clearly. Many of the letters are simplified characters, but fortunately, some of the original physical memories of Chongzhen's body, after a little recall, changed some words that are not too difficult to write into regular characters. As for using more simplified characters, then only begging Sun Chengzong can understand it.

Call Wang Chengen and ask him to send the letter out immediately, so that Sun Chengzong can return to Beijing immediately, and Yang Reform will train the new army. As for Sun Chengzong's location, it is not within the scope of Yang reform's consideration.

It is said that there is a thought, and there is a dream at night.

During the day, Yang Gengai thought about fighting with wild boar skin, and at night, the man-making movement was violent and long-lasting, and not long after he fell asleep, he dreamed that he was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, sent away his son, forced his queen to death, and killed his own daughter, and walked away with a sword by himself, surrounded by panic, desolation, shouting and killing, crying, and ......outside the Forbidden City was the sky-high firelight, wandering by himself, walking towards the coal mountain, followed by an elderly Wang Chengen, who seemed to be a spectator attached to Chongzhen, watching Chongzhen step by step go to a dead end and be powerless.

When the body on his neck became tighter and tighter, and he could barely breathe, Yang Gengai screamed, woke up in horror, and then saw the queen with a panicked face. I wanted to wipe the sweat from my forehead, but I didn't expect that the clothes on my body were all wet.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? Having a nightmare? Queen Zhou Wan'er looked at Yang Reform with a panicked and concerned face, and then touched Yang Reform's body, but she was actually soaked in sweat. hurriedly beckoned the palace maid to change Yang Reform's clothes.

Yang reformed the queen of Muna, and the palace maids changed his clothes and drank a few sips of water to get better. It took a while for Yang Gai to recover from the desolation, horror, crying, killing, and remorse in his dream.

Looking at the young and beautiful queen, thinking about being forced to die by himself more than ten years later, Yang Reform felt a burst of fear. said: "Wan'er, I had a nightmare, I dreamed that the Forbidden City was breached, there was fire everywhere, killing, I forced you to death, and then hanged myself on the back mountain. ”

Queen Zhou Wan'er: "Ah! With a bang, he opened his mouth wide and looked at Yang Reform in horror. She didn't expect the emperor to have such a dream.

"This dream is very clear, I still remember it clearly, as if I ......had experienced it myself," Yang Gengai said to himself, this dream made a deep impression on him, too terrifying.

"Woo...... Woo woo...... "Queen Zhou Wan'er was already at a loss and had already started crying.

"Wan'er, don't cry...... this is a dream, not real,...... I thought, we have to change it, we have to do something, otherwise it will really come true, I don't want to die, I don't want you to die, we want to be healthy and live safely......" Yang said a little blankly.

"Woo...... The concubine understands, woo woo ......"

"We're going to have to work hard, you know? You have to help me, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies, this sentence is not in vain. A sentence suddenly popped into Yang Reform's mind.

"No harmony, no compensation, no land, no tribute, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies." Yang Gai muttered in his mouth, and in his soul, it seemed that he was born with this sentence.

……

Sleep again, it's very sweet, Yang Reform's dream, actually dreamed that he was sitting in front of the computer, was surfing the Internet, as soon as he opened the web page, it popped up the Baidu homepage, but unfortunately, and then went to the few websites he often went to, the page popped up the words that could not be connected, only in Baidu search, except for the search results after clicking on the click, the others can not be on, it is really strange, Yang Reform's dream did not experience a long time, about a few minutes later, it automatically popped out, and then fell into a deep sleep.

The emperor's order has the highest efficiency in the palace, and in the capital, it is also quite effective. Of course, for further afield, it's hard to say.

A few things that Yang Reform ordered to do yesterday are already a bit eyebrow today.

Yang Reform is preparing to auction the calligraphy and paintings in the palace, and Wang Chengen has already found a suitable candidate for him. and the two little eunuchs who went to those Wei case suspects to extort money, also have a bit of eyebrows.

After eating early, Wang Chengen said: "Your Majesty, what Your Majesty ordered yesterday is now a little bit more impressive, Your Majesty, do you ask about calligraphy and painting or Wei first?" ”

Calligraphy and painting is the matter of Yang Reform's preparation to auction calligraphy and painting, and the Wei case is the matter of extorting those involved in the case.

Yang Reform didn't expect this efficiency to be so high, thought about it, and felt that this Wei case was the big one, and it was estimated that he could get millions of silver, and said: "Let's ask the Wei case first." ”

……

"Slave and maid Erxizi (Xiao Shunzi) knock to see Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live." After speaking, he knocked his head on the ground a few more times.

"Get up and tell me what you have done." Yang reformed.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The two looked at each other for a while, and one of them spoke: "Back to Your Majesty, the slave Erxizi went to the prison of the Criminal Department yesterday and asked, and they were all willing to atone for their sins, and the slave asked how much silver taels they were willing to pay to atone for their sins, and they answered differently, some more, some less, and the slaves wrote them down." After speaking, the little eunuch named Erxizi held the things in his hand high above his head.

Wang Chengen ran over to take it and spread it out for Yang Gai to see.

On the paper were written the taels of silver that some people were willing to atone for their sins.

“

Wenchen

Cui Chengxiu: 50,000 taels.

Tian Ji (Bingbu Shangshu): 20,000 taels.

Wu Chunfu (Ministry of Industry): 50,000 taels.

Li Kuilong (Deputy Capital Yushi): 30,000 taels.

Ni Wenhuan (Taichang Siqing): Fifteen thousand taels

………”

There are more than 1.5 million taels.

Yang Gai thought about it and felt that the money was too little, only more than one million taels, which didn't seem to fit their identity! What Yang Gengai thinks about is this "atonement", at least four or five million taels.

"Your Majesty, the slave and maid Xiaoshunzi found those officials who had little to do with the Wei case against the party, they heard that His Majesty was unwilling to kill more evils, and they all praised His Majesty's kindness, but most of them were reluctant to atone for their sins with silver, saying, saying that Your Majesty was seeking personal gain, and only a few people were willing to atone for their sins with silver." The more this little eunuch named Xiao Shunzi spoke, the lower his voice became. After saying that, he put the paper on his head.

Similarly, Wang Chengen took the paper and spread it out for Yang to read.

There are only a few names on the paper, and the number is not large, and there are hundreds of taels of silver. This can make Yang Reform angry, thinking, you really don't cry when you don't see the coffin, let you take the silver you refuse one by one, it seems that you have to be put in prison before you are willing to pay the silver!

After thinking about it, he asked, "Is Fang Hongzan here?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Fang Hongzan is waiting outside." Wang Chengen replied.

"Call him in, I have something to ask."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the slave obeys."

"Chuan Fang Hongzan will meet you."

……

It's still the flying fish suit, which is quite energetic when worn on the body, Yang Gengai nodded and said, "Fang Hongzan, you look good in a set of clothes, you're quite energetic." ”

"Your Majesty Xie praises, but the minister doesn't dare to take it." Fang Hongzan kowtowed on the ground, and then lowered his head and didn't dare to speak.

"Get up, sit, you are also a commander, don't be so restrained in the future." Yang Reform said politely.

"Your Majesty, the minister understands." Fang Hongzan sat on the bench and sat halfway through his buttocks. Yang Gengai just smiled when he saw it, and understood that the authority of this emperor was really very "authoritative". It's not something that ordinary people can resist, even if outsiders talk about the tiger's color change, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, is like a little worm when he comes to the emperor, Yang Reform has been unaccustomed to it from the beginning, and now he has gradually become accustomed to it.

Since I am the emperor, then I should exercise the rights of the emperor.

"How's it going to do with what I told you yesterday?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister should die, the minister is incompetent, he has not fulfilled His Majesty's entrustment, those officials who have not been in prison, but are only somewhat implicated refuse to take the atonement money, only those who have been imprisoned are quite willing." As he spoke, Fang Hongzan knelt on the ground.

The commander of Jinyiwei made Tongzhi Fang Hongzan still very restrained.

……

Don't want to pay the money? That's not good, you have to think of a way, Yang Reform thought about it for a long time.

"Well, let's do it, I remember reading the recital two days ago, and there was an official who said that he wanted to pursue the dirty silver of the Wei Party's rebellion?" Yang Gai asked after thinking about it.

Wang Chengen hurriedly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the slave maid remembers that it seems to be called Fan Weicheng, and the book of Shanglin Yuan." ”

"Well, it's him, since he dares to go to the book and say chasing dirty silver, he must have some ideas, so let's make a decree, let him be the messenger who recovers the stolen goods, and let him be responsible for opening the list to see who should be on the list, Fang Hongzan, you will supervise and assist from it, and whoever is on the list will send them to prison, and you must treat this matter as a major matter, you know? Of course, to prevent Fang Hongzan from framing at will, the specific negotiation matters, the two sides of the silver will be in charge of Erxizi and Xiaoshunzi, understand? ”

Yang Gengai suddenly remembered that a few days ago he had heard that a petty official was going to recover the stolen goods, so he simply asked him to open a list, Fang Hongzan assisted, and the two little eunuchs carried out the specific execution to get money. This is more comprehensive, just let a few little eunuchs go, they are also black-eyed, Jinyiwei, there are too many involvements in this matter, too many high-ranking officials of Jinyiwei are in prison, and they are a little slimy. The three groups of people supervise and restrain each other, and they are not afraid that they will play tricks and be greedy for their own money. Even if things staggered to a beginning.

The second thing I ordered yesterday was to find someone who knows how to do a collectibles auction.

"Grass people, Li Laifu, knock to see my emperor, long live, long live, long live." The man on the ground looked like he was forty or fifty years old, with two white beards, and his eyes were a little energetic, and he seemed to be a shrewd man.

"What's your name?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Li Laifu, a grass citizen, a person from Shuntianfu, is a master in Libao Zhai."

"Oh, what does Libao Zhai do?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Libao Zhai specializes in pawning and trading gold, silver, calligraphy, painting and antique collections."

"Well, very good, you are very good at collecting antiques of gold and silver calligraphy and painting, right?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the grass people have been working in this industry for more than 30 years, and they have some experience."

Wang Chengen said: "Your Majesty, this Master Li of Libaozhai is also a well-known top figure in the antique collection industry. ”

"Really? That's good, Li Laifu, I have something now, would you like to help me do it? ”

Li Laifu was scared to death, he didn't expect that he would be able to enter the palace to see His Majesty when he was forty or fifty years old, it was really a blessing from his life, and he had to do things for the emperor, wasn't that Qincha? I shuddered with fear.

But he didn't tremble for too long, and soon stabilized, and the body kneeling on the ground couldn't bow anymore, his head was clubbed to the ground, his butt was pouting high, and Yang Reform only saw a head and a back.

"The grass people are willing to run errands for His Majesty."

"Well, that's good, in fact, what I want you to do is not a difficult thing, it is also your old business, I have recently ascended the throne, and I am very short of silver flowers, so I want to take some calligraphy and painting collections in the palace or something outside the palace to cash, do you understand?" Yang Reform said very bluntly, when he first arrived, he didn't understand the accident market here, and Yang Reform thought of what to do.

Li Laifu was almost scared to death, and the emperor let him take things from the palace and sell them, didn't he want his own life? I've never heard of that emperor doing this, and there has always been only good things sent to the palace! Li Laifu's body trembled like chaff, and the mood that had just stabilized immediately collapsed.

"Li Laifu, you don't have to be afraid, I won't do anything to you, I just want to exchange these collections for silver, as long as you do a good job, the benefits will be indispensable to you. Do you understand? Yang Gai looked at Li Laifu trembling like chaff, and didn't talk nonsense with him, let Wang Chengen directly put him out, as for whether he was willing or not, he couldn't help it.

This matter was a little unhappy, Yang Gai thought about it, and said to Wang Chengen: "Big companion, you can talk to that Li Laifu about this matter, let him do it according to my will, don't be afraid." Well, if there are achievements, you can give him a hundred households, so that he can be more motivated. ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the slave and maid understand."

"Alas~" Yang Gengai sighed, several things were not done very smoothly, and he remembered the nightmare last night, and felt even more unhappy.;
