Zhu Houzhao shook his head with a smile: "It's much cheaper than an official ingot." As long as it is made into a silver plate after smelting, it is directly polished and polished after stamping, which is very fast. Master Li, not only save money, but also make money! ”

This was an unexpected joy, Li Dongyang raised his eyebrows: "Your Majesty, this coinage has always been a loss-making business, how can you still make money?" ”

"Hehe, the silver dollar is one tael, there is a pattern on the edge to prevent scraping, and the sound is crisp because of nine silver and one bronze. After careful calculations, fifty silver dollars can save one or two feet of silver. ”

Ma Wensheng asked in surprise: "Your Majesty, this is much stronger than the official ingot!" Easy to carry, anti-theft casting, anti-scratching, ordinary people can also distinguish the real from the fake. Tsk, good stuff! Your Majesty, the old minister is cheeky, can you give a few when you are rich? ”

Zhu Houzhao laughed and took out six silver dollars from his sleeve pocket: "Everyone has it!" There is no distinction between ancestral money, mother money, and child money, all the same! ”

Jiao Fang, Ma Wensheng, and Li Dongyang were also not polite, one of them put away the two silver dollars and played carefully in their hands.

Seeing that the heat was almost over, Zhu Houzhao took out the secret report: "The little prince has moved again." He gathered an army of 150,000 and went straight to Wengguan Mountain, attacking Yibula and Mandu Agul. ”

Li Dongyang smiled: "Your Majesty, this is a good thing, right?" Tartar dog bites dog, let's just watch the excitement, and we can save a lot of money and food. ”

Ma Wensheng didn't see it that way, he walked to the map that Zhu Houzhao deliberately hung out, and kept gesturing. After Li Dongyang finished speaking, he turned his head suddenly: "Lord Li, this time the official does not dare to agree. ”

"Oh? Is there something wrong? ”

Ma Wensheng nodded solemnly and pointed to Weng Guanshan: "Mongolia is now divided into the left wing and the right wing, the little prince has unified the left wing, and his third son has been canonized as Jinong." If it is defeated again, it will not be able to reconcile with Mandu and Agul, and Mongolia will be unified again. ”

"So what? The Cooking Wolf Army defeated the little prince three times, and he didn't dare to come! ”

Ma Wensheng sighed: "There is no cooking wolf army on the nine sides, let alone Makqin!" Besides, the little prince has tasted the bitterness, and if he doesn't fight us head-on, can we catch up? ”

Zhu Houzhao nodded secretly, Ma Wensheng is worthy of being Yunwen Yunwu's old minister, and his judgment on this matter is almost exactly the same as his own.

Li Dongyang frowned: "Then what should I do?" Just hit it? The teacher is nameless! ”

Ma Wensheng was anxious: "Master Li! My Lord Lee! Fighting a war is not a fuss, let alone dealing with government affairs, where is the need for a division to be famous? The winner is king, and the loser is the loser, which is true! Besides, when the little prince called, there was no excuse. He can do it, so can I! ”

Li Dongyang still shook his head: "Master Ma, you just said it, we can't catch up!" Besides, if you can catch up, what about the money? Fighting a war is not a fight, weapons and ammunition, food and fodder, tents and horses, which one does not require money? Regardless of victory or defeat, the soldiers' pensions and bounties are a huge amount! ”

Ma Wensheng was speechless, yes, no matter what the reason for Li Dongyang's opposition is, what is there to fight if he has no money?

Zhu Houzhao spoke: "In the past six months, King Wu has sent back a lot of gold and silver, and my inner treasury has taken out a part, and the national treasury has taken out a part, and I can't let the grassland unify because I have no money!" ”

Li Dongyang saw that Zhu Houzhao didn't speak, the little prince was let go by you, and now you are saying this kind of thing?

Zhu Houzhao understood what Li Dongyang meant, and his face was a little hot. At the beginning, he was frivolous, thinking that the little prince would return to the grassland, and he would be able to catch two battles. Now that I have been in contact with the government for a long time, I regret it more and more. He coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment: "Ahem, there was a situation at the beginning, the little prince was not in the grassland, and he was also ready to move with Mandu Agul, whether it was the little prince, or the same and Mandu Agul, they would never be allowed to unify the grassland." ”

Seeing that Zhu Houzhao already knew the severity, Li Dongyang nodded: "Okay, take precautions, the treasury can pay this money." Your Majesty, who is leading the troops? ”

This is the purpose of Zhu Houzhao's paving for so long! Zhu Houzhao waited for this sentence. He held his head high: "I am determined to drive the expedition in person!" ”

Yes? Even Jiao Fang is gone! The officials of the Ming Dynasty couldn't listen to the four words of the royal driving pro-conquest, and since the change of the civil fort, the imperial driving pro-conquest has become a nightmare for the Ming Dynasty!

Jiao Fang immediately shook his head anxiously: "Your Majesty, no!" The lesson of the previous car is not far away, Your Majesty, this case cannot be opened! ”

Li Dongyang is also a rare hard-heartedness: "Your Majesty, you must not drive in person!" If Your Majesty wants to conquer in person, please depose the old minister! ”

Ma Wensheng also stood straight: "Your Majesty, the royal driver can't be requisitioned, it's better for the old minister to go!" ”

Zhu Houzhao knew that the courtiers would definitely try their best to oppose it, and he had already prepared another set of rhetoric: "Ladies and gentlemen, I am not acting hastily. Emperor Shi Zhen and Brother Wei ambushed the little prince in Cailiang Mountain, and they were also covered in blood. Moreover, Brother Wei has already sent a batch of advanced weapons and equipment, and compared with the previous Wolf Cooking Army, the current Wolf Cooking Army has greatly enhanced its combat effectiveness. I'm risk-free! ”

Li Dongyang still shook his head: "Your Majesty, it's not that the old minister doesn't believe what His Majesty said, it's really different from the past." Wasn't the hundreds of thousands of troops under Yingzong strong back then? Didn't Warat dare to confront it head-on? Your Majesty, if you are still the crown prince, the minister will not stop you. Now that His Majesty's identity has changed, this is one of them. Second, His Majesty has not yet married, and he has no children, once there is a case, where will Daming go? ”

Zhu Houzhao also wanted to give it a try: "Master Li, even if it happens, isn't there still Brother Wei?" Da Ming is fine! ”

Li Dongyang still shook his head, and Jiao Fang interjected: "Your Majesty, the ministers are all Your Majesty's courtiers, so naturally you must be loyal to Your Majesty." Your Majesty can't be arbitrary! ”

Zhu Houzhao was not angry, which was also expected. So he nodded slightly: "Okay!" I promise you! Alas, it's really not dangerous. ”

"That's not going to work either! People don't go without heads, birds don't fly without heads, Your Majesty is a billionaire of the Ming Dynasty, and the society and the country are all in Your Majesty! ”

"Okay, okay! Alas, Brother Wei said it well, I listened to the advice of others to eat a full meal, and I couldn't go. Well, Master Li, when it comes to the big wedding, I'm already thirteen years old, can I let the Zongren Mansion recruit palace maids? ”

Li Dongyang relaxed, and saw that Zhu Houzhao was interested in women, of course he needed support! "Of course! Your Majesty, according to the ministers, you can start selecting the queen candidate now, and after a year or two, Your Majesty will be able to get married! ”

"Hmmm! OK. That's all for today, I want to see the mint's building. ”

Li Dongyang and others were deceived by Zhu Houzhao's performance and returned to the cabinet with confidence. Jiao Fang always felt that this was not Zhu Houzhao's style, this person has always been tough since he ascended the throne for half a year, how could he change his mind in a few words?

"Lord Li, beware of Your Majesty secretly sending troops! Your Majesty has a criminal record! ”
