Under the blue screen window, the beauty Qi Deqian lay quietly on the soft collapse.

Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen slept next to him, holding his waist: "I don't know when Qing will be willing to undress and be crazy?" ”

Qi Deqian blushed, looked at the rose in front of him who was pressed to the tip of his nose by Zhu Youzhen, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty will solve it if you want to solve it, and Your Majesty will not understand it if you don't want to solve it." ”

"Unknowingly, it has been five years since the queen passed away, the palace has been quiet for five years, you have been by my side for five years, and the concubines who entered the palace with you have children one after another, and you are still budding, but you should have seen a lot of ups and downs."

Zhu Youzhen sat up as he spoke: "You just stay here, I can't keep you for another five years tonight." ”

Saying that, Zhu Youzhen ordered someone to gather a group of concubines and children: "I am going to set up a school in the inner house, and the internal officials are responsible for teaching, and my children and future grandchildren must participate, and this matter will be in charge of Zhu Yujiao, the head of the inner study hall, what should you know about the incident five years ago, I hope you can remember the lessons of the year, and don't let your children repeat the back path of the three princes." ”

"The concubine understands!"

Yuan Guifei hurriedly replied with a group of concubines.

Zhu Youzhen nodded, and walked to the east study, but saw the master of ceremonies and the supervisor handing over the note: "Your Majesty, Gao Hongtu was escorted to Jinzhou by the first detachment of the South China Sea Fleet three months ago, and it is estimated that he has now landed. ”

Gao Hongtu did not go to Jinzhou immediately after leaving Beijing five years ago, but only now officially set off for Jinzhou, his fiefdom, after Liangguang helped Li Mingrui form the South China Sea Fleet, exterminated several pirates, and even strengthened the South China Sea Fleet.

"Approve him, I wish him good luck, and hope that he will succeed in building a city in Jinzhou as soon as possible, and then I can allow the Han people to move to the past."

After Zhu Youzhen said with a smile, he saw Wang Chengen, the governor of Dongchang, hurriedly running in: "Your Majesty, the commander of the Dongchang Economic Investigation Bureau, Ma Jixiang, reported that the Nanjing to Yangzhou section of Caoyun was locked up for five days, and the loss of private traders has reached more than 100,000 silver dollars, the cause of which is the theft of the seal of Li Xuan, the king of Linping, the North Korean envoy, so Xue Suoyun, the secretary of the Nanjing Police Headquarters and the governor of Caoyun, ordered the closure of the Yangzhou to Nanjing section of Caoyun and search for past traders!" ”

Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the news, and immediately smashed his fist on the window: "Because the seal of a Korean monarch was stolen, he Xue Suoyun was locked up for five days, and the loss amounted to more than 100,000 silver dollars, how long did his brain grow!" ”

Wang Chengen saw that Zhu Youzhen was furious, so he had to wait for Zhu Youzhen to calm down before continuing: "In addition, Dongchang secretly reported that Ying Tianfu refused to accept the case of the arrears of the craftsman ICBC of the Jiangnan Silk Reeling Factory, but on the same day, because the Korean envoy Li Xuan was beaten by Kou Baimen, the master of Huixiang Pavilion, he led the police team to surround Huixiang Pavilion. ”

At this time, a celebrant on duty came over: "Your Majesty, the cabinet has presented the expenses of the Korean envoys in Nanjing and the estimated expenses for the future. ”

Zhu Youzhen hurriedly took the cabinet note, looked at it for a while, and slapped it directly on the table angrily: "What are the North Korean envoys doing in Nanjing, they have spent 18,000 silver dollars, where did the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Nanjing get so much money!" ”

"Your Majesty is angry, you might as well ask Ma Shiying", Wang Chengen hurriedly suggested.

After a while, Ma Shiying was summoned into the palace, and after Zhu Youzhen questioned him, he hurriedly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, according to the report of Zhang Ziduan, the secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Nanjing, after the North Korean mission arrives in Nanjing, it must drink tribute tea for tea, and every meal must not be less than 100 silver dollars, and it must go to the Qinhuai River to drink flower wine every night. ”

"Confucianism teaches officials are not soft-boned, what kind of pickled goods is his Korean mission, I have already made a will, before the imperial court's will is issued, foreign envoys are received by their official rank in their own country, he Li Xuan is just a monarch, and Dingtian is just the treatment of a prince, but now the cost is even greater than my patrol once! Is he Zhang Ziduan's Shangshu of the Ming Dynasty or the Shangshu of North Korea! ”

Zhu Youzhen was very angry, and immediately issued an order: "Escort Ying Tianfu, Yangzhou Prefecture Prefect, Tongzhi, this Nanjing Ministry of Foreign Affairs Shangshu, and the right attendant of the Nanjing Ministry of Foreign Affairs who is responsible for sending the North Korean mission, and Xue Suoyun, who was locked up because the North Korean envoy lost his seal, into Beijing!" Immediately! Right away! I have to be strict! ”

Wang Chengen, the commander of Dongchang, hurriedly said: "Obey the order!" ”

Ma Shiying couldn't help but shudder, and came over tremblingly and said, "Your Majesty, do you want to receive the North Korean envoys?" ”

"Reception fart! The lock was taken into Beijing, I spent so much money, and I made Nanjing into a miasma, if I didn't peel off his skin, I wouldn't be my Ming Emperor! Cao Yun immediately opened, if to the fifth day of the next month, Cao Yun opened, all the losses of Cao Yun by Xue Yun compensation, if it has not been opened, one more day will be compensated by you, the head of the cabinet, what kind of governor Shang Shu you chosen, just throw a seal on the ministers of Yi, and dare to close Cao Yun! ”

Ma Shiying was scolded by Zhu Youzhen for the first time, and he was scared and frightened for a while, and when he heard that if Caoyun was not opened on the fifth day of the next month, he would be asked to compensate him, he seemed to understand something, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly said: "Weichen will do it, this will do it!" ”

As soon as Ma Shiying returned to the cabinet, he immediately sent someone to Yangzhou to quickly inquire about what was going on with Cao Yun and whether he had been imprisoned, and at the same time sent someone to ask Xue Suoyun what he had done to make His Majesty Long Yan angry, and at the same time sent the police team from Beijing to Yangzhou to lock up the North Korean mission in person.

……

Zhang Ziduan, the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Foreign Affairs, was happily saying to his subordinates at this time: "Finally, the North Korean mission was sent away perfectly, and the cabinet should praise our Nanjing Foreign Ministry, and this year's year-end dividend should not be less. ”

"Thank you!" Hearing Zhang Ziduan's words, other officials of the Nanjing Ministry of Foreign Affairs were busy thanking Zhang Ziduan.

At this time, people from Dongchang suddenly broke in: "Where is Zhang Ziduan, the secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Nanjing!" ”

"The lower official is Zhang Ziduan, dare to ask the poor master what is going on, the lower official is not corrupt!" Zhang Ziduan knew that it would not be a good thing for Dongchang to come to the door, and he was a little uneasy in his heart.

"Your Majesty's instructions, Zhang Ziduan is not worthy of being a Ming diplomatic official, and he will be escorted to Beijing immediately! Take! ”

As soon as the people from Dongchang said this, Zhang Ziduan knelt on the ground: "Why did Your Majesty say this, the lower officials didn't do anything wrong!" ”

……

Xue Suoyun, the secretary of the Nanjing Police Headquarters and the governor of Caoyun, was proudly saying to his officials at this time: "Caoyun will continue to be locked up for three days, and then you send someone to give them a blow, as long as you are willing to pay 20,000 silver dollars, you will switch it!" This silver dollar was compensated to the Korean envoys, after all, the seal of the other party was stolen from us, but it was not the official who wanted to exploit it! ”

"It's still smart", when Xue Suoyun's subordinates were flattering, Ma Jixiang, the commander of the Dongchang Economic Investigation Bureau, personally walked in with a team of Dongchang soldiers: "Xue Butang, you have to be locked up for another three days, can you afford to pay for it, do you have a mine at home?" According to the order, Xue Suoyun, the secretary of the Nanjing Police Headquarters and the governor of Caoyun, caused serious losses to the people by taking advantage of Caoyun, and immediately arrested and entered Beijing! ”

"Commander Ma, is there any misunderstanding here, it's only because the seal of the North Korean envoy was stolen in this area, and the lower official had to lock up Caoyun to solve the case!"

Xue Suoyun hurriedly explained.

"It is precisely because of this that I want to lock you up, this is the will of His Majesty himself, if you have any grievances, tell Your Majesty yourself!" Ma Jixiang waved his hand as he spoke: "Take it away!" ”
