Chapter 208: King Wei scares people every day
"King Wu promised to send troops, Su Shoufu, what about you?"
Emperor Long Cheng laughed so much that the fat on his chin trembled, like Maitreya Buddha, the whole person was full of joy and excitement, a big victory, never had a good time!
It turns out that being an emperor can be so cool?
In the past, Emperor Long Cheng's desire to implement his own ideas was always full of twists and turns, and there was a lot of resistance.
Emperor Long Cheng persuaded the courtiers that it would take a lot of effort to fight against the courtiers and then compromise, and he faced the officials of the six ministries alone, each time he was exhausted, and he could not achieve his original goal.
Therefore, Emperor Long Cheng has always said that being an emperor is bitter and being an emperor is tired, which is not hypocritical.
Today, Emperor Longcheng felt that it was still very cool to be an emperor for the first time.
He suspected that he had been a fake emperor for so many years!
Su Shoufu smiled bitterly and said: "The ministers will be the first to drive for Your Majesty, to conquer the Northern Barbarians for Your Majesty, and to welcome back the eldest princess of Anyang for Your Majesty." ”
What else could he object?
King Wu all admitted defeat.
Emperor Long Cheng, King Wu, and Su Shoufu are the core of the entire court, Su Shoufu has been an assistant for many years, and his connections are all over the court and the opposition, but he has a clear understanding.
Among the three parties, Su Shoufu is the weakest, after all, he is a minister!
King Wu is considered a half-minister, uniting King Wu, or uniting Emperor Longcheng to suppress the other party, Su Shoufu can sit firmly, once Emperor Longcheng and King Wu agree on something, even if Su Shoufu is reluctant, he is powerless to object.
After all, King Wu and Emperor Long Cheng will not let him stretch out his hand to the ranks of Wuxun, Wuxun rarely marries Wenchen, saying that Wenchen looks down on Wuxun, in fact, once the daughter of Wenchen marries into Wuxun's family and marries the prince as his wife, Wenchen will soon be unlucky.
And which family marries Miss Wenchen's Wuxun will also be abandoned by the entire circle.
Emperor Longcheng clearly attached importance to Su Shoufu and let Wenchen suppress Wuxun, essentially suppressing Wuxun and splitting Wuxun and civil officials.
It's not that Su Shoufu doesn't understand, but he doesn't dare to move, and the deep-rooted civil and military division is not something that Su Shoufu can reverse alone.
Even the Martial King, who was courteous to Su Shoufu, did not dare to completely unite with Su Shoufu, firstly, he did not believe in Su Shoufu, and secondly, the Martial King was afraid that Su Shoufu's tail would not fall.
The military generals of Wenchen knelt down again, and shouted in unison: "I am willing to be a pioneer for Your Majesty, to conquer the Northern Barbarians for Your Majesty, and to welcome back the eldest princess." ”
In the past, the officials of the six ministries who needed to be persuaded by Emperor Long Cheng one by one are now extremely well-behaved, and Emperor Long Cheng suddenly stood up, listened to their shouts, and said three good words in a row.
The rest of the rhetoric seemed to be blocked in Emperor Long Cheng's throat, the corners of his eyes were a little moist, and his gaze fell on Li Zhan.
Li Zhan was rare and serious, kneeling side by side with Nuan.
He noticed Emperor Long Cheng's gaze, raised his eyes and squeezed his eyes at Emperor Long Cheng, Father, it's cool to be the emperor.
Emperor Long Cheng couldn't cry or laugh, maybe he was too worried and not willful enough before, so he did more than ten years of hard work to force the emperor, according to Li Zhan's freewheeling, Li Zhan was rarely belittled in the history books of later generations.
For the emperor, in addition to enjoying the glory and wealth during his lifetime, don't you also ask for a posthumous name?
The emperor is trying his best to beautify himself, and the king of the dead country often puts the responsibility of the dead country on the red face and the troubled water, or the courtiers and villains, in short, the emperor of the dead country is wrong, and he only mistakenly believes in the villain.
Emperor Long Cheng was worried about Li Zhan's posthumous name.
Li Zhan can not care, he handed over the heavy responsibility to Li Zhan, in case Li Zhan is not highly evaluated in the history books, he is distressed as an old father.
Su Shoufu kowtowed and said: "The old minister still needs to remind His Majesty a few words, the household does not have much silver, which is not enough to support His Majesty's Northern Expedition, and the grain storage warehouses in various places, what is the specific situation, and the old minister has not fully grasped the number of grain reserves."
No matter how fast the Northern Expedition is, maybe two or three years of effort, in which the food and salary spent are hundreds of millions, Your Majesty, if you go to the Northern Expedition with the strength of the country, the subjects are afraid that the people's hearts will be unstable, not to mention that the ministers do not know whether there will be major natural disasters within two years after the beginning of spring. ”
The national teacher said: "I observe the celestial phenomena, in the next two years, the wind and rain will be smooth, I dare not say that there are no natural disasters, there will be no large-scale natural disasters, but natural disasters cannot withstand man-made disasters."
Celestial phenomena show natural disasters, but they cannot show people's hearts, and once someone has a man-made disaster, it is more destructive than natural disasters. ”
"I don't like to hear this, everything is pushed to the celestial phenomena, then it's good to be motionless with the celestial phenomena, and the celestial phenomena can return Aunt Anyang?"
Li Zhan scolded the national teacher every day, "Making a decision, there are naturally advantages and disadvantages, isn't the responsibility of Su Shoufu and other courtiers to solve the disadvantages?" I don't know how much food there is, Su Shoufu won't send someone to check? The household department did not have much money in deposit, so how could it become a reason to stop his father.
What do household officials eat? Is it possible to spend so many taxes every year? After the Battle of Changning, the father and emperor were so diligent and thrifty that they felt distressed when they looked at their sons, they didn't use a penny from the treasury, and they had been cultivating for more than ten years, and the treasury had no money? !
You're embarrassed to say it, too! The future is unpredictable, but in the past ten years, there have been several natural disasters that the master can find, and the amount of silver that is donated every year.
Don't be no, my father tightens his belt and gets by, and you use all the money in the treasury. ”
Hubu Shangshu hurriedly said: "I don't dare to embezzle the silver of the treasury, but the six ministries also need silver turnover every year, and the officials' salaries and so on, the silver is not used......"
"More than 2,000 years of the Han Dynasty, you praised the rule of Wenjing, how much did they pay at that time? In less than twenty years, he was able to support Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to attack the Xiongnu in the north. Today, the people of the dynasty are two or three times as large as they were then, and the taxes are much higher than they were then.
The Northern Barbarians are not the Huns, do you say that the treasury is insufficient? Say that the silver is not used? ”
Tobe Shangshu opened his mouth and lowered his head deeply.
During the Han Wu period, the stars gathered, the ministers gathered, and there were many courtiers who were good at making money, which led to the feat of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty defeating the Xiongnu.
Nowadays, in the imperial court, there are really no overly outstanding civil and military generals, but there are more martial kings who always drag the emperor back.
"Hmph."
King Wei snorted coldly, "Knowing that you don't have the money to raise money, I don't expect you to only spend money and not make money, since Master Fang Cai promised to prepare the silver for his father's Northern Expedition, he will not lose his word."
However, the treasury must take out thirty percent of the silver used in the Northern Expedition, and the remaining seventy percent, the lord will raise it, if the thirty percent of the silver can't be taken out, the lord will personally take the brocade guards to knock on the door of your house one by one, and when the time comes, the heads will be rolling, don't say that the lord will not give you a chance! ”
Hubu Shangshu couldn't care about Su Shoufu, and hurriedly kowtowed: "If it is thirty percent of silver, the treasury can still be taken out, congratulations to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Wei is good at raising money, which is the luck of His Majesty and the blessing of the court." ”
Emperor Long Cheng nodded and said, "...... This rabbit cub has a lively mind, and after being crowned the queen, he is more and more out of it, and others say that he can raise seventy percent of the silver, but I don't believe it, but if the king of Wei can't raise it, I will cut off your head. ”
"Erchen still hasn't married a daughter-in-law, he hasn't added a grandson to his father, Erchen has just found his sweetheart, and it's still alive."
Li Zhan glanced at him warmly and smiled softly.
The warmth was chatting with the visitors, and Li Zhan was a little panicked when he saw it, and Li Zhan was nervous again.
"I beg you to allow your courtiers to act cheaply, and they promise not to raid the courtiers' houses to raise money, and not to do anything that harms the people."
"That's right."
Emperor Long Cheng agreed very happily, their father and son had a tacit understanding, trusted Li Zhan, and gave him power, and what Emperor Long Cheng wanted to do was not to doubt his son.
"Your Majesty, the officials of the governor's offices in various places have sent excerpts asking for the crown prince, what do you think should be done?"
“……”
Emperor Long Cheng pressed his temple, "Oh, there is also the matter of canonizing the crown prince, I asked you at the beginning, which prince is suitable to be the crown prince." ”
The three-and-a-half-human-high folds were placed in front of Emperor Long Cheng, which was the result of Emperor Long Cheng after seeing a batch.
Emperor Long Cheng said: "The eldest princess of the emperor has been punished, but her guilt should be announced to the world, so as to warn the rest of the princes of the clan to use human blood to make alchemy, although the eldest son of the emperor did not know, but he failed to manage his wife well, and he also had negligence." ”
The eldest son of the emperor maintained a state of kowtow, "I implore my father and the emperor to allow his sons to make meritorious contributions to the people and the court, otherwise the sons will feel uneasy." ”
Emperor Long Cheng's eyes were complicated, "You are terrible to death?" ”
"Erchen is willing...... Willing to go to the soup for his father, Erchen didn't want to raise money as King Wei together, and Erchen gave a hand to fight and run errands. ”
The eldest son of the emperor was most afraid that Emperor Longcheng would punish him for studying behind closed doors and losing a good opportunity for the prince to observe politics.
