[Today's second update]

Deng Haonan removed many court ministers and officials, so the six departments of the cabinet could not function. The state machine cannot be delayed, so Deng Haonan issued an edict to push the cabinet officials without delay.

The courtiers listed the left waiter Cheng Jiming of the Ministry of Works, and the right waiter of the Ministry of Rites, Qian Qianyi, Wen Tiren, Zhou Yanru, etc., and at the same time were pushed Zheng Yiwei, Li Pengfang, Sun Shenxing, He Ruzhong, Xue Sanxing, Sheng Yihong, Luo Yuyi, Wang Yongguang, Cao Yubian, etc., a total of thirteen people.

In the study, Deng Haonan asked Wang Qia for detailed rules.

Wang Qia told Deng Haonan that if he wants to stabilize the government as much as possible, he must put an end to party strife. If you want to put an end to party strife, the position of the first assistant to the cabinet needs to be taken over by Qian Qianyi.

"Qian Qianyi is the leader of the Donglin Party, doesn't this make the Donglin Party rise again?"

"No!" Wang Qia shook his head and said, "The prince doesn't know, although the Donglin Party has been suppressed in the eunuch era, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse. With the Donglin Party in the DPRK, other parties cannot raise their heads, and one Donglin Party can suppress all the parties in the government and the opposition. If it is replaced by another party as the first assistant, it will inevitably lead to party strife, which will do all kinds of harm to the prince and no benefit! ”

Deng Haonan said bluntly: "This king wants to support his protégé and former officials, so he hopes to fish in troubled waters!" ”

Wang Qia didn't expect Deng Haonan to say it to him directly, and felt that Deng Haonan regarded him as his own, so he obstructed even more: "Just rush to the prince to treat Weichen like this, and Weichen can't let the party struggle affect the prince's plan!" Don't start a party fight again! Wanli Zhongxing is very large because of the unimpeded government decree in exchange for the dominance of one party, and you also know that the officialdom of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China is deceitful, the power is tilted, and the big thing is studied to study and the result becomes a big basket! ”

Deng Haonan nodded, feeling that what Wang Qia said made sense.

"But will Qian Qianyi become a member of our camp, if he-"

"Lord Wang, don't worry!"

Wang Qia interrupted Deng Haonan's concerns, knowing that Deng Haonan was worried that Qian Qianyi and other Donglin Party members would not be able to be used by him, and even sang against him, so he said: "Qian Qianyi has three ups and downs, but he can still save his life!" He is well versed in the truth of self-protection, and he will never do it against the prince! ”

Deng Haonan had already learned about everyone on the list from the Ministry of Intelligence, and he was also deeply impressed by this Qian Qianyi. This person can be described as a talent, first-class in handling government affairs, and his poetry and writing are even more successful, but he loves books like life, an ancient book, and he is willing to spend thousands or even thousands of dollars to buy it at a high price.

Spending so much money on books is nothing. But Deng Haonan knew that Qian Qianyi had no money to buy books, so he would naturally play on the side at any cost, but he liked to show off his talent and literary wealth, so it was easy to give people a handle.

Wealth is not exposed, and books are not exposed!

In fact, Qian Qianyi was a Jinshi in the 38th year of Wanli, until the death of Chongzhen in the 17th year of the Ming Dynasty, in a period of 35 years before and after, three ups and downs, spinning in and out, and all the time in office was only about five or six years together, because of the corruption of the Ming court, there was no outstanding political achievement. He became famous because of his outstanding literary talent and was regarded as one of the three masters of Jiang Zuo. And because he had participated in the activities of the Donglin Party against Wei Zhongxian's eunuch party, he was also regarded as one of the leaders of Shilin. By the end of the Apocalypse, as the leader of the Donglin Party, he was already a fairly influential figure.

"As far as this king knows, Wen Tiren and Zhou Yanrusu are at odds with Qian Qianyi. As soon as the king released the rumors to form a cabinet, someone reported that Qian Qianyi was corrupt and bent the law when he was studying in Zhejiang. Although he doesn't need to be guilty of a big crime, it is really not easy for him to be the first assistant minister! ”

Wang Qia smiled and said: "Don't worry, you just need to turn a blind eye and let him lead the Donglin Party to settle the other henchmen, the prince only needs to occupy the second and third leaders of the key departments with his own people, let them learn government affairs, once the prince's protégé and former officials have experience, they can remove Qian Qianyi at any time at that time!" ”

Then he added, "At that time, Qian Qianyi's style is estimated to have aroused the dissatisfaction of the government and the opposition, and the prince will be able to gain a good reputation if he gets rid of him at that time!" ”

Sure enough, the ginger is still old and spicy!

Deng Haonan listened to Wang Qia's words and immediately understood his intentions. The emperor's mental trick is nothing more than that, and unloading the mill and killing the donkey should be regarded as commonplace.

retreated Qian Qianyi to the cusp of the storm, and let other small waves continue to attack him, while Deng Haonan retreated to the back to watch the battle, one sang red face and the other sang white face, all good things belonged to Deng Haonan.

Good idea!

Deng Haonan nodded and said, "Then let Qian Qianyi be the secretary of the ministry and give him the title of the first minister!" ”

"The prince is wise!"

Next, Deng Haonan discussed with Wang Qian again and sorted out the detailed rules for the appointment of central officials in the imperial court, and Deng Haonan benefited a lot from it.

Before leaving, Wang Qia resigned from the post of secretary of the military department and prepared to return to his hometown for retirement. Deng Haonan knew that he had made up his mind, and he didn't do much to keep him. Wang Qia is very smart, Deng Haonan joined the national government with the army, and his military department must be in charge of Deng Haonan's so-called General Staff officials, so he might as well let it out early.

It is the best policy to return to his hometown, and Deng Haonan will not treat him badly.

In fact, Wang Qia told the old man to return to his hometown, and Deng Haonan gave him 500 households to show his favor.

The favor given to Wang Qia is also a signal to the other officials in the vegetarian corpse position, those who follow me prosper and those who disobey me die.

Pavilion in the garden of the Liaowangfu.

A table and a chessboard, an old man and a young man sat opposite each other, and the family, guards, and maids hid far away, but they could still hear the shouts of the two people and the loud sound of snapping chess.

The two of them were playing chess, yes, not in any ordinary heat.

"Lord Qian, I heard that you learned to be rich and five cars, but I didn't expect that chess will not lag behind!"

"The prince has spoken!"

Qian Qianyi picked up his black car, crossed the Chu River and Han Realm, and directly killed the Red Fang's base camp, and the fierce offensive was overwhelming.

"Since you have learned to be rich and rich, you will naturally be able to play chess!"

“……”

All right! Count you cows!

Deng Haonan rolled his eyes, even if Qian Qianyi bragged, he had to bear it, because he had already lost four games in a row and couldn't open (Hu).

Black is aggressive, and red is not to be outdone. Although Deng Haonan lost four games in a row, he was repeatedly defeated and fought back.

However, looking at the overall situation, there are once again more sunspots than reds.

"Huh! What about my cannon? ”

Inadvertently, Deng Haonan found that the cannon in his corner was gone.

"The prince's cannon has been eaten by my car just now!"

"Why didn't you sue me!"

"There is a way to steal cannons from open cars and secret horses, doesn't the prince want to regret chess?"

"Cut! Will this king regret chess? ”

Deng Haonan pursed his lips, although he wanted to regret the chess in his heart, but he couldn't be convinced.

Meow a! You dead old man can't let this king win!

Deng Haonan picked up his horse and took a step with a snap.

"I'll step on your crappy horse!"

"Think about it and jump again!"

"You've figured it out!"

"Really thought about it?"

"Of course!"

"No regrets?"

"No regrets!"

"No regrets!"

Deng Haonan carefully inspected the enemy battlefield and found no danger.

"Of course this king does not regret chess!"

Syllable!

Qian Qianyi's cannon returned to his own camp from Deng Haonan's base camp, just killing the horse that Deng Haonan had just jumped on.

"When did your cannon run to the king's house?"

"The open car and the secret horse steal the cannon! Does the prince want to regret a move? ”

Depend on!

Deng Haonan cursed Qian Qianyi again in his heart, but he was embarrassed to open his mouth to regret the chess, the words just now were too full, and there was no room for maneuver.

"A spit and a nail! This king said that he will not regret chess! ”

Deng Haonan was very depressed and wanted to talk to Qian Qianyi about government politics, but the old man found an excuse to avoid the topic, so that Deng Haonan could not force him to ask.

Qian Qianyi explained that the car and the horse secretly ate the cannon, which made Deng Haonan interested, and suddenly said: "What is the explanation of the open car and the secret horse stealing the cannon?" ”

Qian Qianyi looked at Deng Haonan and said with a smile: "Weichen doesn't dare to show ugliness in front of the prince again, this trick should be the prince's specialty!" ”

Deng Haonan looked at Qian Qianyi and said secretly: This old man has something to say!

"Lord Qian, but it doesn't hurt to say it!"

Qian Qianyi rummaged back and forth with the red zi he had eaten in his hand, and said with a smile: "Weichen will take the chess!" The open car requires you to put the car on the calling road, the car attack is the strongest, so do not put the car on the back, sometimes, the opponent will deliberately abandon the child to achieve the purpose of introducing your car into the back. And the horse's attack is the way of attack of the day, the general killing of the enemy is from the dark sneak attack, requiring the horse not to be stuck by the opponent's sub position, and the cannon has the effect of dodging and moving, can be flat artillery pumping, so that people are unable to guard. ”

"That's what it means!"

Deng Haonan savored it, and suddenly felt that this Qian Qianyi was not simple, at least not as simple as Wang Qia said.

Oh yes, this old man's words have a deep meaning!

At this time, Qian Qianyi took out the list of personnel appointments and handed it to Deng Haonan.

Deng Haonan glanced at it roughly, and after seeing that the secretary of the military department was Lin Feng, he no longer looked at it carefully, and approved it with a big stroke of the pen.

Deng Haonan has appointed Qian Qianyi to be the secretary of the ministry and is the first assistant minister of the cabinet. The responsibility of the Ministry of Officials is the transfer of officials. Qian Qianyi sent a proposed list of various ministries of the imperial court, which was arranged by Qian Qianyi.

Deng Haonan just glanced at it, and then waved his pen and approved.

Qian Qianyi was surprised why Deng Haonan didn't ask at all, and directly approved. He had already prepared too many words to explain, hoping to dispel Deng Haonan's scruples. But at this moment, Deng Haonan didn't ask anything, but messed up Qian Qianyi's deployment.

"The open car and the secret horse steal the cannon!"

Deng Haonan laughed and said, "Lord Qian's words are thought-provoking, this king has been taught!" ”

"Weichen doesn't dare!"

Qian Qianyi hurriedly and modestly said: "There is a specialization in the art industry, and the prince is strategizing, so naturally he is no longer in this chess!" ”

Deng Haonan smiled slightly and said: "The court game is like chess, and the chariots, horses, artillery, and soldiers are handsome, but the division of labor is different, but all of them are indispensable!" However, this open car and secret horse stealing cannons is a very apt description for this king! ”

"Wechen is in vain! I hope that the prince will forgive his sins! ”

"It's okay!"

Qian Qianyi suddenly said: "I don't know how the prince is going to respond to the prayers of the people of Zhili?" ”

Qian Qianyi refers to the much-hyped matter of Deng Haonan's lack of payment of food and taxes under Deng Haonan's rule when he was the governor of Zhili.

Now that Deng Haonan is the regent of the prison country, the things that he was originally going to give the emperor a headache were thrown back into his hands this time.

"What does Lord Qian think?"

Qian Qianyi smiled and said meaningfully: "Since ancient times, those who win the hearts of the people win the world, and those who lose the hearts of the people lose the world. ”

Deng Haonan understood what Qian Qianyi meant by doing it, and wanted him to also exempt the people of Zhili from paying taxes for three years.

"There is no problem with exempting Zhili from paying taxes for three years!"

Deng Haonan said: "It's just that in this way, other provinces may not be able to compare." If the common people all pour into Zhili and Jiangxi, it will be quite a lot of pressure! ”

Qian Qianyi asked: "I don't know how much silver the prince has!" ”

Deng Haonan smiled, looked at Qian Qianyi, and said, "Don't you want to beat the king's inner money?" This king is dragging his family with his mouth, and there are tens of millions of people waiting to be fed! ”

Qian Qianyi said with a smile: "If the prince can exempt the provinces from paying taxes for three years, he will definitely get much more than he pays!" ”

Deng Haonan said: "Exempt the national tax for three years, and the officials everywhere drink the northwest wind!" ”

"Since the prince didn't blink his eyes, he took out 30 million taels of silver for disaster relief, if he can give another 20 million taels, Weichen is sure that he can recuperate for three years!"

"Really?"

Qian Qianyi smiled and said, "You are the regent of the prison country, you are the king, but Weichen doesn't dare to bully the king!" ”

"Can 50 million taels of silver support tax exemption for three years?"

"Of course!"

Qian Qianyi said: "As long as the tax exemption is three years, the Ming Empire will be restored in three years, and even far surpass Wanli Zhongxing!" ”

Then he said earnestly: "At that time, the prince will be the living Buddha who saves the world in the hearts of the 50 million people of the Ming Dynasty, and even a god!" ”

Deng Haonan stared at Qian Qianyi tightly, and the latter was not to be outdone to accept Deng Haonan's eyes.

After a long time, Deng Haonan nodded and said, "In this way, Master Qian can just let it go!" ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang!"

Qian Qianyi knelt on the ground and bowed, which was his gratitude to Deng Haonan on behalf of the 50 million people of the Ming Dynasty.

Spending 50 million taels of silver, if it was someone else, Deng Haonan would definitely feel distressed, but he was very happy to be able to let the people of the Ming Empire recuperate for three years.

So he looked at Qian Qianyi and said, "Come on, let's play the next game!" ”

Qian Qianyi received the order, and the two sat down to play against each other again, but this time it was Deng Haonan who won.

Deng Haonan knew that Qian Qianyi deliberately let him, but he was very happy.

"Lord Qian won five games, this king won one game, five to one, it was this king who lost!"

"No!" Qian Qianyi shook his head and said with a smile: "It's the prince who won!" ”

Deng Haonan was stunned for a moment and asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Qian Qianyi said: "Weichen won the first five games, but the prince won the last game. As the prince said, the court game is like chess, and it can only be known in the end. The prince won the last game, and the prince was the winner who had the last laugh! ”

When Deng Haonan was stunned, Qian Qianyi had already bowed and left.

Looking at the figure of this old man, a smile appeared on the corner of Deng Haonan's mouth.

The next day, in the court, Deng Haonan announced that all taxes across the country would be exempted for three years, and the Ming Empire would recuperate for three years.

This move immediately caused a shock from top to bottom, and the officials of the state and dynasty only cared about their salary, in response to which Deng Haonan once again threw a bombshell and proposed a policy of high salaries and incorruptible pensions, doubling the salaries of existing officials, and all of them were paid by the Liao Wang's internal funds.

The emperor list was issued, and the whole country celebrated. The common people from all over the country have taken to the streets and alleys, the dragon dance and the lion dance to celebrate, and the people have gone to the umbrella to thank the Liao King Deng Haonan for his grace, and the people in the wealthy areas directly offered incense to Deng Haonan's ancestral hall.

For a time, the name of Deng Haonan, the king of Liao, spread all over the north and south of the Great Wall, and became a good official who was well-known and praised.

While the people of the whole country sang and danced to celebrate, Deng Haonan's finance minister Sigou, no, should be called Wang Chengen. He was heartbroken, because Deng Haonan directly took out 50 million taels of silver from the treasury to fill the financial loopholes caused by recuperation. This is half of Deng Haonan's strategic reserves! took it out like this to raise the Ming court, tens of thousands of officials, which really made him uncomfortable.

However, Qian Qianyi re-examined the post-war and post-disaster reconstruction plans drawn up by Huang Liji and others, and the budget was reduced from the original 18 million taels to 7 million taels, saving Deng Haonan a lot of expenses. This made Wang Chengen feel better.

Of course, there is also a group of people who are under a lot of pressure.

This is the head of the major companies engaged in overseas trade, Deng Haonan exempts the common people from paying taxes, but does not include merchants who sell goods by sea, and they also need to pay high tariffs.

The pressure on the Pacific Trading Company was even greater, and Li De, at the request of Deng Haonan, needed to do everything possible to make up for the financial deficit caused by recuperation.

"It's really unreasonable!"

Li De couldn't stop complaining, Deng Haonan was happy, and he spilled out 50 million taels of silver as soon as he made a move, but the deficit had to be filled by Li De.

However, Li De is not a fuel-efficient lamp either. Although Deng Haonan doubled the quota he gave him, and asked him to earn 20 million taels of silver for Deng Haonan every year, he asked Deng Haonan for a charter to start a war, negotiate peace, and contract with a foreign country, because he was forced to rob the bank!

Obviously, Deng Haonan will not give him this charter. But in order to appease Li De and let him make more money, Deng Haonan prepared forty frigates, allowing him to engage in robbery, kidnapping, and even invading other countries.

Of course, the credit for Li De is enormous. In recognition of his super ability to accumulate money, Deng Haonan awarded him the title of earl.

Although Li De did not get the charter, he had forty frigates under his command, which made him a little bolder. Originally, he only traded in the Pacific region, but now Li De decided that some merchant ships would open up European routes under the protection of frigates and sell the items of the Ming Dynasty directly to Europe, so as to make huge profits and complete the goal assigned to him by Deng Haonan.

After the "Three Dynasties Canon" was destroyed, Qian Qianyi asked for an edict to revise the "Xizong Record", and Deng Haonan approved it.

Zhu Chunchen, the Duke of Chengguo, was appointed as the supervising officer, Wen Tiren, Zhang Zhifa, Kong Zhenyun, He Fengsheng, and Huang Tujun were appointed as the chief officers, and Jiang Fengyuan, a scholar of the Ministry of Rites and a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and Liu Yuliang and Fu Guan, who were scholars of the Academy, were appointed as vice presidents.
