Zhang Zhong, who has not been at home for many years since he was a child, has an immature inner cognition.

Of course, it may also be ten years of cold and hard to cool blood, in short, after Zhu Qizhen finished speaking, his Zhu Qizhen looked at it, and his eyes were shining, as if he had some idea.

But no matter what, this reaction made Zhu Qizhen very satisfied, and he felt like a life mentor.

After this matter is over, Zhu Qizhen naturally has other things.

"British duke, I have something to tell you, your study is in ......"

Zhu Qizhen's meaning couldn't be clearer.

Zhang Fu immediately understood: "The minister knows, the study is in the side room, and I also ask Your Majesty to be affected and moved." ”

As he spoke, Zhang Fu personally led the way in front.

entered the study, and only Jin Ying came in to serve.

Zhang Fu stood in the room, thinking about something.

In the blink of an eye, Zhu Qizhen was already sitting on the official hat chair in front of the table.

"British duke, I came today, in addition to helping to get rid of this heart disease, there are actually some things, I want to hear what the old prince thinks."

Zhu Qizhen said lightly on the chair.

Zhang Fu suddenly felt a huge pressure, but from the bottom of his heart, he felt at ease.

"Jin Ying, show the things to the British duke."

"Yes".

Jin Ying took out a piece of music from his sleeve and handed it to Zhang Fu.

Zhang Fu opened it and looked at it, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat and sweated.

On this, it is the lawless matter of Jingyuan to impeach the two nobles of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.

The above matters include private soldiers, false reports of the number of soldiers, and greed for food and wages.

Even, even the buried silver allocated by the household department dared to touch it.

Zhang Fu's hands trembled a little.

Without him, because of these two people, they are inextricably linked to the Zhang family.

Zhang Hui, Zhang Xuan.

These two are their younger brothers, one is the right governor of the Chinese military governor's mansion, and the other is the right governor of the former military governor's mansion.

"Have you finished reading it? Jing Yuan obeyed my will, but just checked, and found out such things.

When I first saw it, I didn't believe it, so ah, one by one, I asked Jinyiwei to investigate, and it was true.

If the old man doesn't believe it, he can go to Jinyiwei to check the file. ”

Zhu Qizhen's tone remained the same, and he said unhurriedly.

The more this is the case, the more worried Zhang Fu becomes.

Zhang Fucheng handed over the recital, and after bowing down, he looked distressed: "Your Majesty, the younger brother, the younger brother, the two younger brothers, this move is simply in vain, outrageous.

The minister's brother is guilty, and the minister cannot escape the blame.

The father died early, and the so-called eldest brother is like a father, but the minister did not fulfill the responsibility of the eldest brother to raise such two bastards.

Please Your Majesty, punish the sins of the ministers, and the ministers are willing to accept the guilt. ”

Looking at this scene, if you change it to your previous self, you may really believe it.

Just now?

Just think about it, the pickled things that the two brothers have done, and the means are so rough, can Zhang Fu not know?

"British Princess, to be honest, this matter is not a big deal, for so many years, the nobles and nobles have eaten some and taken some benefits in the Beijing Camp Guard, and they have taken some silver every year, and I have seen it, and I have not cared about it.

As for why?

You are all heroes of Taizong back then, blood and sweat together, I don't want to chill your hearts, many things, Jinyiwei and civil officials, I have suppressed them, and I will not send them, even if I am Emperor Taizong, I have a little heart for these old brothers who fight the world together.

But you also saw it just now, even if they even burned and sold silver, they dared to take it, wouldn't this cut off the way of life for other families?

People are like you, bleeding and sweating for Daming, I can't let them cry anymore, right?

As for the guilty plea, the old Guogong, the Zhang family has been separated for many years, and the guilty plea can't be invited to the head of the old Guogong.

Besides, Zhang Hui is not a three-year-old child, he is nearly sixty years old, and if he commits a crime, he should bear it himself. ”

Zhang Fu lowered his head and listened, his heart becoming more and more empty.

"I know that the old man is the eldest brother, and I don't want to embarrass the old man.

Let Zhang Hui and Zhang Xuan write a confession excerpt, and bring back the embezzled buried silver to me.

As for the rest, I don't want to investigate the things about the old sesame seeds and rotten grains, but in the future, I won't be so easy to talk about. ”

This move can be regarded as raising it high and putting it down gently, leaving enough face for the Zhang family.

After Zhang Fu heard this, he finally put his heart down.

He knew that the words behind this were not for the Zhang family, but for all the nobles.

What can Zhang Fu do next? Naturally, His Majesty Xie is magnanimous and grateful.

After mentioning this pickled matter, Zhu Qizhen continued: "Old Guogong, you are a general, you should know that Jingshi is the foundation of the world, and Jingying is the artifact of Jingshi."

Whether the world can be stable or not, in the final analysis, is inseparable from Jingying.

Therefore, Jingying does not dare to make any mistakes, this is not only for me, for the prince, but also for the future generations of the Ming Dynasty, the descendants of the foundation. ”

After Zhang Fu heard it, he also agreed immensely.

This is very appropriate for Da Ming.

It is extremely difficult to grasp the military power of the central and local governments, especially the border armies.

When the border becomes bigger, it is very easy to cause the rebellion of the former Tang Anshi, and the great prosperity will disappear in a blink of an eye, and since then the feudal town has become a nightmare for more than a hundred years in the front hall.

In the former Song Dynasty, they learned the lesson of the former Tang Dynasty feudal towns and adopted the policy of strong cadres and weak branches, emphasizing literature and suppressing military force, and the central forbidden army maintained an absolute advantage over the border army, which indeed stabilized the situation.

But in this way, there are three hundred years of the Song Dynasty, and almost all the year is a situation of being beaten.

When the Ming Dynasty was established and the capital was Nanjing, the threat of the Northern Yuan Dynasty was still there, and the imperial court had to defend heavily in the north.

But fortunately, Emperor Taizu was a ruthless man, and the Beijing camp established was also very hard, and the central government and the border army maintained a delicate balance between them.

In the Yongle period, in order to avoid being out of reach, Taizong simply moved the capital to Beiping, forming a situation like today's son guarding the country.

The Son of Heaven guards the country, in other words, the military horses that guard the country are all controllable by the Son of Heaven.

Of course, there is a premise for this, that is, the Beijing camp must maintain a strong combat power.

Only when the Beijing camp is strong, the emperor's gun is hard, and when the gun is hard, the waist is naturally hard.

Historically, Jingying was not as good as a year, and after the three major expeditions of Wanli, almost all of the blood and bones were lost.

The emperor's guns were not hard, and in the event of a peasant uprising or a foreign invasion, he had to rely on guest troops from all over the country.

It is good that these horses are loyal, but if they are not loyal, the leaders of the army will appear everywhere.

Therefore, in the Chongzhen Dynasty, except for Li Banghua's rectification, there was a short-lived vitality, and at other times, Jingying looked like he was going to die.

Without the support of the direct line of soldiers and horses, how can this throne sit firmly.

Even if Zhu Qizhen has now asked Shi Heng to go to Liaodong to kill the Jurchens who have not yet grown up, he knows in his heart that this is a palliative rather than a cure.

The best way is that Jingying must be strong.

The lecture hall is to provide fresh blood and maintain the professionalism of the army.

And what Zhu Qizhen has to do is to establish a consensus or system: whoever dares to get his hands on anything in the Beijing camp will become the enemy of the Zhu family.

The rules are set first, and if there is really a long-sighted offense, then there is nothing to say.

So, it's best to take the red and purple British Mansion as an entry point.

Even if Zhu Qizhen said that Zhang Hui and Zhang Xuan had separated, they were still the Zhang family.

Zhu Qizhen said meaningfully: "Old Guogong, this is a private word, this jade is not cut, it is not a weapon, sometimes, it can be covered up now, what about in the future?" You can't hide it for a lifetime. ”

Zhang Fu Daigo was empowered, "Minister, I understand. ”

Before leaving, Zhu Qizhen also said something.

He had already discussed with the household department that he would go to the West again and allocate 300,000 taels from the internal funds.

I don't know if the British government is interested in going together?

After sending Zhu Qizhen away, Zhang Fu returned to the hall and sat with a black face for a while.

When the slaves and maids saw the grandfather like this, they were all worried and walked on their feet, for fear that something would go wrong and hit the right head, annoying the grandfather.

"Zhang Fu, Zhang Fu ......"

Zhang Fu suddenly spoke, and shouted in a thick red voice.

"This, this, sir, I'm here......"

An elderly man in his fifties trotted all the way over, it was Zhang Fu, the chief butler of the British Mansion.

"Zhang Fu, you go to the second and third children's houses, and tell them to roll over to Lao Tzu immediately, one step too late, Lao Tzu broke their dog's legs in front of his father.

By the way, and their families, come over together, do you hear it? ”

"I heard it, I heard it, the little one will do it, and the little one will do it."

Zhang Fu's chick nodded like a peck of rice.

After Zhang Fu left, Zhang Fu called a frightened girl: "Go, invite Mrs." ”

After Mrs. Zhang came, Zhang Fu pulled his wife down in the warehouse.

The storehouse of the British Mansion is a single courtyard with thick walls and high houses, and there are ten rooms above this courtyard, and twenty rooms on the left and right, and each of them is much taller than ordinary houses, and it is naturally more capable of installation.

But the windows in each room were small, and the windows were tied with tight iron bars.

In it, it is filled with the wealth of the Zhang family in the past few decades, including royal rewards, shop sales, farm production, and some shady income.

For example, the spoils of war, or some ...... as Zhu Qizhen said Grey income.

As for how many things are in these warehouses, even if Zhang Fu doesn't look at the account books, he can't say it clearly for a while.

Mrs. Zhang didn't know what her master did when she suddenly came to the treasury for no reason.

And for most of the day, what are you doing with a lamp?

There are thirty rooms of all sizes, and everything in each room has long been remembered by the Zhu family, which side is filled with jewelry, which side is gold and silverware, and where is pearl and jade, and the grange shop, she knows it in her heart, and she has already done it as a treasure.

But in the next second, her eyes widened.

What I never expected was that I saw the elderly Zhang Fuxun come to an inconspicuous corner, kicked and kicked as if to determine something, laboriously moved a box in the corner of the wall, and then lay on the ground and pried open the slate.

After prying open the stone slabs, he laboriously pulled out a few wooden planks, and then a narrow passage appeared in front of him.

"What is this?" Zhu was stunned.

I never thought that there would be such a place in this warehouse.

Sure enough, this lamp came in handy.

"Don't be silent, follow me!" Zhang Fudong looked around, held the lamp in one hand, and helped Zhu down the passage with the other.

After arriving below, Zhu Shi fixed his eyes and saw that it was a large cellar, and this cellar was also full, with boxes everywhere.

"The ten boxes here are filled with the gold I have saved over the years!"

Zhang Fu was chattering on his lips, and his hands were not idle, he was busy for a long time, first and then the lights were on the lock for a long time, and then he picked out a handful from a bunch of keys.

I opened it with the key, and as soon as I lifted the lid, under the light, a golden light suddenly appeared.

"Yikes!" Zhu covered his mouth and exclaimed, this box doesn't look big, but it is full of gold.

Zhang Fu searched to the other side, and when he opened it, it was a box of silver sand.

Zhu was shocked by the gold and silver in front of him.

Seeing his daughter-in-law like this, Zhang Fu also grinned.

Mom, this, there are dozens of boxes of all sizes down here, how much gold and silver do you need?

"Master, this, this gold and silver, belongs to our family?"

Zhu asked intermittently.

Zhang Fu's face darkened, "What are you talking about, under our house, who else can it be if it's not our family?"

Let me tell you, these are the lifeblood of our Zhang family, and they are left to our children and grandchildren to save their lives. ”

As soon as he finished saying this, the Zhu family, who came back to his senses, became angry in his heart, "Wow, surnamed Zhang, am I still from your Zhang family?"

are all husband and wife, all these years, you have been hiding from me, this tone is really tight, the old lady has been married to your Zhang family for decades, and gave birth to a son and girl, you don't treat the old lady as your own person, dare to love your Zhang family's foundation is so thick? ”

"What are you yelling at? Doesn't this take you down? ”

Zhang Fu glanced at his mother-in-law, "I didn't say it before, it was not time to ........ before"

"So what are you talking about today?"

Zhu was still scolding in a low voice.

"I'm going to use it today", Zhang Fu looked at the gold and silver reluctantly, "Mother-in-law, in this family, I believe you the most, you have followed us for so many years, who do we believe if we don't believe you?"

We're not afraid of your jokes, when we were in Tumubao, we felt that our death was coming, and we thought that we were dead, what should you, Zhong'er, and Mao'er do. ”

As he spoke, Zhang Fu smiled: "But don't worry, if we die, someone will tell you these things."

In our life, we have killed more people than we have eaten rice, all for?

For us?

Yes, our family's money is exhausted, and we have earned a prince for our children and grandchildren.

But in the future, future generations will have to put on a generation of things that don't make a climate.

Relying on the face of our ancestors, what can we do with our little grace now?

When the time comes, if they want to live a little more comfortable, they have to rely on real money to speak. ”

After hearing this, Zhu's face softened a lot, and his mouth was still unforgiving.

"Having said so much, don't you still don't treat the old lady as your own, isn't there a layer in your heart?

You just told me, can I say it? ”

Zhang Fu shook his head, "Your housekeeper is a good hand, but this involves the foundation of our Zhang family!" Only the head of the family can know! This rule cannot be broken. ”

Zhu was too lazy to care, and then suddenly thought of something: "Wait, you didn't leave it for your children and grandchildren, why did you just say that you want to use it today?" ”
