Chapter 635: Treasure Money (I)

In mid-August, Zhai Zhe had not yet been relieved from the busy official duties of the queen regent, and Jiangbei sent him his first big gift.

Li Laiheng took advantage of the righteousness of the imperial court to annex Zhu Shouchao and other two righteous armies, gathered 60,000 or 70,000 people from Wuwei Prefecture to the north, and once again broke through the county seat of Lujiang, and the troops pointed directly at the city of Luzhou.

The terrain of Jiangbei is a junction point in Luzhou City, Luzhou is in the place of the junction of north and south, sitting on the river and looking at Huai, the north of Luzhou City is mostly plain, and the south of Luzhou City is hilly.

After Li Laiheng captured the Lujiang River again, he immediately set up a pass at a dangerous place, did not dare to act rashly, sent people to Nanjing to report the good news, and asked troops to support the attack on Luzhou Mansion

The soldiers and horses in the south of the Yangtze River are stretched, and where are the soldiers and horses sent to the north of the Yangtze River.

After the death of Yuan Zongdi, the soldiers and horses under his command were originally in the loyal camp, and now they are temporarily under Li Laiheng's account, and there are about 15,000 regular soldiers in Lujiang County, which is enough as a diversion battlefield.

Zhai Zhe replied that not a single soldier from the imperial court rushed to the aid of Li Laiheng, but allowed Li Laiheng to reorganize the rebel army in the Yinghuo Mountains. There are no soldiers and no money, so they can only delegate power.

After dealing with the affairs of Li Laiheng's army, the regent ordered to summon Fang Yizhi and Huang Zongxi of Suzhou Academy to Beijing.

In the past half a month, the regent has replaced the emperor, and the imperial court in Nanjing City has been functioning normally. The after-dinner conversation about the regent no longer seems so novel.

Scholars from all over the country are preparing for the upcoming scientific expedition, except for Zheng Zhilong's problem is still unresolved, and all parts of the Ming Dynasty are the same as before.

The messenger sent the order to Suzhou, and Fang Yizhi smiled bitterly at the order.

In the past month, there is only one place in Jiangnan that has the greatest response to Zhai Zhedeng Regent, and that is Suzhou Academy. Fang Yizhi said everything in Suzhou Academy, suppressing the roars of the students and scholars. He only had a fight with Huang Zongxi yesterday. Huang Zongxi wanted to return to Yuyao, but was stopped by him.

An official document, and a private message. King Jin is the regent, and he is still very kind to him.

Fang Yizhi suddenly missed Zhai Tianjian a little, the regent prince was a sample he carefully carved, in those years, he had nothing to do, and he gave his life perception to a child. Now that I think about it, if the prince will one day ascend to the throne, every thing he has done will be worth it.

The letter is scribbled and should be written in one go. The official documents are all in upright small letters, and the lower right side is stamped with the regent's seal.

Fang Yizhi read the letter first, and then looked at the official document, and his face gradually became very strict.

After thinking for a while, he put away the letter and walked towards Huang Zongxi's residence with the official document in his hand.

There was no one outside the door.

He gently pushed open the door and looked in, Huang Zongxi was sitting cross-legged in the room in the direction of Taihu Lake in the distance. In front of the academy is farmland, and beyond that is the rippling waters of Taihu Lake.

The paddy fields are verdant, and the late rice in the south of the Yangtze River has just been headed.

Huang Zongxi knew that someone had come in, and he didn't look back. In Suzhou Academy, there was only one person who dared to walk into his house without knocking.

He didn't move, turned his back and said, "Brother Mi, I will stay here, it's all about your feelings"

Fang Yizhi held the edict in his hand and said, "Of course I know. ”

"Zhai Zhe's wolf ambition, I thought he was the Duke of Zhou of the Ming Dynasty, but I didn't expect him to be a reckless character." Huang Zongxi was still indignant, "The Qing Dynasty has not been extinguished, and he returned to Nanjing from Jiangbei in a hurry just to seize power." ”

Fang Yizhi said: "Taichong, since you and I have made up our minds to be this person who preaches and solves doubts, why worry about the affairs of the DPRK and China, you also said that the chaos in the world is not the rise and fall of one surname, but the sorrow and happiness of all people." ”

"Brother Mi, this is a bad word," Huang Zongxi turned around with both hands on the bamboo bed, and saw Fang Yizhi holding an official document in his hand, retracting the last half of the sentence, with a defensive look, and asked, "What are you looking for me?" ”

Fang Yizhi handed over the official document and said with a smile: "If you want, you can get a chance to question the regent face to face." ”

Huang Zongxi took it, looked at it hastily, threw it to his side, and said: "This is a chaotic fate, I won't follow, and you are not allowed to go, otherwise you and I will break off our friendship with each other." ”

Fang Yizhi walked over and put away the official documents and asked, "Taichong, don't you want to know why the regent summoned us to Nanjing?" ”

Huang Zongxi was very stubborn and said: "No matter what you do, since you and I have decided to only be people who preach and solve doubts, we don't have to go to the court again." He refuted what Fang Yizhi had just said.

Fang Yizhi said with a smile: "This trip is exactly what the regent wants us to solve. ”

Huang Zongxi sneered: "What else does he need us to solve?" ”

"The regent wants to make treasure money, and specially invited the two of us to go and ask for a plan," Fang Yizhi revealed the truth.

"What, Xingbao Banknote?" Huang Zongxi suddenly laughed loudly, and the tears of laughter were about to fall, and asked, "Are you here to make me happy because you see my pain?" ”

Fang Yizhi's expression was stern and said, "It's true, true." ”

Huang Zongxi suddenly became very happy and said, "Okay, good, if he wants to make treasure money, let him kill himself."

The two of them are not nerds who only know eight shares, and they are very clear about the shortcomings of the existing problems of the Ming Dynasty. Fang Yizhi asked: "The business name can use silver tickets, why can't the imperial court use treasure money?" ”

Huang Zongxi turned away, faced out the window, and stopped talking.

"I decided to go to Nanjing, are you really not going?" Fang Yizhi is unwilling.

"Are you really going?" Huang Zongxi turned around again.

Fang Yizhi looked like a matter of course, and said: "I am greatly favored by the prince, and the prince has a call, of course I have to follow." ”

Huang Zongxi angrily reprimanded: "You only remember that Zhai Zhe saved you, but you don't know where the righteousness lies." The person who saved you was in the court, and the person who wanted to kill you was not in the court? ”

Fang Yizhi finally understood that the person Huang Zongxi really hated was Ma Shiying. His father Huang Zunsu was one of the six gentlemen of Donglin that year, and died at the hands of the eunuchs, and Ma Shiying was the eunuchs.

"Righteousness?" Fang Yizhi snorted and said, "I want to say that I once took refuge in the thief, do you believe it?" ”

Huang Zongxi couldn't help but say: "That's Ma Shiying's framing of you"

"The court can even forgive the thief, what is my little revenge?" Fang Yizhi didn't want to revisit the past, so he persuaded again: "The prince has not yet decided when to implement the treasure banknote, and he summoned you and me to inquire about this matter to ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”

Zhai Zhe also read the manuscript of Huang Zongxi's book on taxes and acres of land, and knew that he was a talented person, so he invited him to go.

Huang Zongxi sighed and said: "Treasure money, it is Zhai Zhe's devil who can't control it Now that the court has frequent military affairs, Zhai Zhe moved the idea of making treasure money, but I am afraid that there is a lack of silver and rewards in the army. In recent years, he has written books on tax reform, and has read many pros and cons of treasure money banks summarized by his predecessors.
