Chapter 123: Retreating from Annan?
Yang Shiqi knelt down and bowed: "Your Majesty, the grain and rice in the world, Jiangsu and Zhejiang account for eighty percent, Jiangsu and Zhejiang grain and rice, Su Song accounts for most of it, such as today's disasters and man-made disasters, perennial wars, repairing tombs, going to the West, and revitalizing the victims, the original income is meager, and it has long been insufficient to cope with the annual expenses, and the financial budget has reached the point where the expenditure of the next year will be advanced first, and the household department cannot come up with the money and grain of the ballast warehouse, and the poverty is relieved and the consumption of Annan is spent. β
Emperor Yongle was very angry and said angrily: "How can this be reasonable, Annan deceives people too much, how can you stop here, there is no money, no food, how are you a household secretary." β
Yang Shiqi took off his crown and pleaded guiltily on the ground: "The country is people-oriented, the people are food-oriented, and Annan's military expenditures are huge, and they are filling the big hole of dissatisfaction." Moreover, there are countless generals and soldiers who have sacrificed, and leaving Annan is to drag down my Ming finances and make the people of Daming hungry. β
Yang Pu came out and said: "What Bachelor Yang said is reasonable, the treasury can no longer support Annan, please withdraw your majesty." Fifteen years have passed, and the war in Annam has hardly been broken. β
"Xia Yuanji."
Xia Yuanji came out and said: "Your Majesty, discarding Annan will damage the prestige of my Ming Dynasty, but the household department really can't come up with the money, so it has to be decided." β
"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to lead the troops to the expedition again, not half a year, to pacify Annan." The military general, the British Gong Zhang Fu, was impassioned.
Zhu Di's face softened slightly, but Yang Shiqi said: "Your Majesty, since the British Duke said so, the minister also believes that he will be able to complete it in half a year, but Shunning Wang Huan has returned, Tatar and Warat have never had any faith, and the prevention of the north also needs the British Duke, besides, this time Annan is defeated, it is difficult to ensure that they will not rebel again." The people's rations are in jeopardy, and if the Tatarva invades the northern frontier again, what will they do to meet the enemy? β
Zhu Di choked on his words, how did he not know that in the later period of Yongle, there were only a handful of generals who could fight. When Hongwu was in the air, the generals were all over the place, and they were all cleaned by Hong Wuye, and Zhu Yunwen was unavailable, so his appeasement had a chance to succeed. But now, Zhu Neng was convicted and died, Zhang Yu died in battle, Qiu Fu braved the enemy to enter and died, Chen Heng died of illness, Mu Sheng died of illness, and now in addition to the British Gong Zhang Fu, the Marquis of Anyuan Liusheng barely passed. Thinking of this, he walked out of the hall directly, and the ministers looked at each other.
Jian Yi is an old fox, he didn't speak in the court, and he only sighed when he got home.
Jian Yixuan was thoughtful and saw her father's thoughts: "Father, you agree with the British Duke to fight." β
"In the early years of Yongle, I didn't approve of including Annan in the Ming Dynasty, after all, it was too far away, the hearts of the people did not return, as long as something was wrong, they would rebel, and sure enough, the Ming Dynasty was always led by the nose. But give up now. It gave a precedent, and those countries that were attached to our dynasty did not have different intentions. But if you don't give up, the household department really can't get the money and food, and it's a dilemma. β
"This is a national event, you don't care so much, Yi Xuan, in August this year, you are eighteen, you can't accompany me for the rest of your life." Dongli mentioned it to me again, look at it, that Yang Dao and Li Qi are all unique. β
The girl was shy and angry: "Daddy-"
"Hehe, I know that you have a high heart, ordinary men can't get into your eyes, men should get married, and women should get married." Jian Yi joked, "I can't let them laugh at me in Dongli, who said that your daughter is the best among people, but she can't get married, learn from that nun, Green Lantern Ancient Buddha." β
Jian Yixuan thought of that man, inexplicably sad, and muttered: "If there is no one you like, there is nothing wrong with the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha." β
Jian Yi was stunned, and reproached slightly: "What are you talking about, young age, old-fashioned, uh, speaking of which, Yi Xuan, you can run an errand for me." β
She gathered her thoughts and said curiously: "Father, what's the matter?" β
"That Chen Yuan, everyone says that I give him a cousin, and I am my protΓ©gΓ©, but this kid is farming, and he has never taken the initiative to come to my house once, and you are familiar with retreatββ"
Hearing his name, the girl's heart trembled.
"He has always been smart and witty, maybe there is any way to solve the current problem, if there is, ask it earlier, so as not to cheapen King Zhao, if not, we can also make plans again?"
"Why didn't my father go and see him himself?"
Jian Yi smiled bitterly: "The grandson's wedding, although there was no chaos, but I helped Chen Yuan calculate His Royal Highness the grandson, I better stay away from him, so as not to be killed by him." β
"Poof." The girl couldn't help but laugh. She only found out about stealing the day later, and she had to admire Chen Yuan's courage, and even worse, she calculated her old fox father.
It is true that King Han is in trouble, but he secretly exchanged the woman that Taisun likes with Chen Yuan, and his father has not gotten Taisun's good face for a day until now.
"Since it is inconvenient for the father to go, then the daughter will run for the father." Speaking of this, she couldn't suppress her joy.
Jian Yi saw his daughter's unusual performance, and a trace of worry was buried in his heart.
It's April, all kinds of wildflowers are blooming, red, purple, yellow, like embroidered on the green earth, and bees are busy among the flowers, sucking the stamens, and flying around diligently.
The time for planting seedlings has passed, and farmers are transplanting seedlings.
Chen Yuan pulled weeds in his sweet potato field, thin beads of sweat falling from his forehead.
In those years, there were no herbicides, no fertilizers, and natural fertilizers were used. The grass will always grow faster than the dealer, so a plant growth cycle has to be weeded two or three times.
When Jian Yixuan was dressed in an emerald green skirt and a light-colored gown. He wears a ribbon around his waist and white embroidered shoes. The simple bead flower on the head, like a fairy descending to earth, wanders in the field.
Chen Yuan was stunned, he hadn't seen her for two months, and every time he saw her, he felt a little restless in his heart. This girl is always so captivating.
A fairy, standing beside a man in coarse linen, did not match in any way.
Pulling her father into the water, Chen Yuan was a little weak-hearted, and said slightly: "Girl, do you have time to go out for an outing today?" β
The girl said angrily: "You are a busy man, if I don't come out, you won't go up to my house to sit." β
"Hehe, you also know, I'm not used to those red tape etiquette, you talk about poetry, books and piano, I don't understand it at all, I can only plow the field and plant the soil."
"If you say this, you will coax others, if you are really stupid, then how can Shizhou be calculated, and what about Miss Wu?"
Chen Yuan smiled dryly: "Accident, it was an accident." The girl had something to say, and secretly said that she had put her father together.
He changed the topic and said: "Girl, look at it, these are the seeds you planted for me before, and they are growing well, and in autumn, with the current land conditions, there is a yield of 3,000 catties per mu, which is worth a year's ration for a family of ten." β
His words seemed unintentional, but the girl was startled, and suddenly thought of something.
