Chapter 349: Don't talk about martial virtues

Inside the temple.

Everyone looked at each other.

Emperor Wu was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "Accurate." ”

The voice fell.

The door was pushed open, followed by anxious voices.

"Your Majesty, something is wrong!"

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu was visibly panicked, and he didn't even bother to salute after entering the door, so he shouted.

When he calmed down, he found that in addition to His Majesty, there were also the three elders of Hu Ge in the hall.

was stunned for a moment, and then said a little anxiously: "It just so happens that Hu Ge Lao is also here, let's discuss how to deal with this matter." ”

Seeing that he looked nervous, Emperor Wu couldn't help frowning, and said coldly: "As an official of the Ministry of Rites, you should have the courage of Mount Tai to collapse in front of you and not change your color, so flustered, what kind of system do you become?" ”

When the Ministry of Rites Shangshu heard this, he hurriedly said: "The minister knows his mistake. ”

"Okay, let's talk about what else is going on."

Emperor Wu waved his hand impatiently.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The Rite Department Shangshu took a deep breath and calmed down.

Then he took out a newspaper from his arms, presented it with both hands, and said, "Your Majesty, this is the newspaper printed today, please take a look!" ”

Wu Huang stretched out his hand to take the newspaper, spread it on the table calmly, only glanced at it, and was stunned.

I saw that the front page of this newspaper read "Shocked! The imperial court is about to abandon the treasure money! 》。

Below this title, it is also written in a more eye-catching font - in the future, treasure banknotes are equivalent to waste paper!

Just for a moment.

Emperor Wu felt as if his heart was grabbed, and he could barely kick his breath.

Immediately afterward, there was a visible panic.

"Where did this newspaper come from, how dare you make it up like this! When did I say I was going to abandon the treasure money! Who said that treasure money is equivalent to waste paper, so spread rumors, what is the intention! ”

Emperor Wu pointed to the newspaper and raised his voice.

"Discarding the Treasure Money?"

When Hu Shifan and Han Congwen heard these four people, their eyes widened and their faces were incredulous.

One of them was a Tobe squire, and the other was the president of Daewu Bank.

The imperial court wants to abandon the treasure bank, why don't they know?

There is no doubt that this is a malicious rumor!

The purpose behind it is self-evident!

"It must be a newspaper controlled by the dry people! I have long said that newspapers must be in the hands of the imperial court, and those officials want to use newspapers to expand their influence and blindly oppose them!

Well, now that a baseless rumor can disturb the peace of the court! It's just stupid! ”

At this moment, Hu Shifan felt the meanness and shamelessness of the Qianren again, insidious and cunning, and could no longer control his emotions, so he scolded loudly.

And Han Congwen on the side, for fear that this Hu Yanei would say something inappropriate, hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I don't know this newspaper, can the minister take a look?" ”

"Naturally!"

Emperor Wu handed the newspaper to Han Congwen and said a little anxiously: "Han Qing's family take a good look at this article and think about how to redeem it." ”

"Obey."

Han Congwen replied respectfully, reached out to take the newspaper, and browsed it from top to bottom.

After looking at it for a while, his brow furrowed tightly.

Originally, he thought that this was just an article about causing trouble, and there was no other means than rumors, and it was not worth refuting.

However, I read the content of the article.

Only then did he realize that the article was not as nonsense as he thought.

As a matter of fact.

In addition to the sensational title.

The article's analysis of the treasure banknote is very accurate.

The first half talks about what happens to the market when a large number of counterfeit banknotes flow into the market.

The second half talks about how the imperial court should deal with it, and what consequences it will have if it can't deal with it.

Finally, the author of this article, based on the current situation of Gusu Mansion and Dawu Bank, made an inference that in less than a year, Dawu treasure banknotes will be reduced to a situation where no one uses them.

At that time, Dawu Bao banknotes will be equivalent to waste paper.

I want to avoid this situation.

There is only one way for the imperial court to go, and that is to abandon the treasure money if the strong man breaks his arm.

In the end, the conclusion is exactly the same as his opinion.

"This person is not simple!"

After reading this article, Han Congwen sighed like this in his heart, and at the same time his brows furrowed even tighter.

If this article is just gibberish, it would be a good solution.

Put the rumor-mongers in a dungeon, and then post an article to refute them one by one.

However, this article is not gibberish, and even all the analysis is well-founded and convincing, which makes it difficult to do.

It didn't take long for the big Wu treasure banknote to be printed.

A considerable number of the people who use it are dignitaries.

They don't distrust the court because of a few sensational headlines.

However, when they read the content of the article and found that the article was not sensational, the result was very different.

And the rest of the people are small people.

They don't even look at the content of the article, and the mere headline is enough to arouse their fear that treasure money is equivalent to waste paper.

No surprises.

At this moment, at the door of Dawu Bank, hundreds of people had already gathered, lining up to exchange the treasure money for gold and silver!

"Han Qingjia, have you figured out how to refute this article?"

Emperor Wu looked at Han Congwen with hope, hoping that he could make a reasonable suggestion.

It's a pity that Han Congwen couldn't think of how to refute it for a while, so he could only lower his head and say with a guilty face: "The minister can't think of how to refute it for the time being." ”

When Emperor Wu heard this, his face showed disappointment, and he looked at Hu Shifan on the side.

I hope he, the head of the household, can give advice.

Hu Shifan pondered for a while, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the most important thing now is to destroy these newspapers that confuse people's hearts, and arrest the mastermind behind this matter, and impose heavy punishments to set an example!"

In addition, if there are too many people who have read the newspaper, they should let the servants of the various yamen go to the streets to post notices on the streets, telling the people that the so-called discarding of treasure money, treasure money, which is equivalent to waste paper, are all fabricated by dry people, and the purpose is to confuse people's hearts!

As for what the article is about, it doesn't matter at all, the important thing is to appease people's hearts! ”

This statement is well-founded and convincing.

Emperor Wu's face couldn't help but show a look of approval, and said: "What Hu Qing's family said is extremely true, and this matter will be handed over to Hu Qing's family. Do it now and try to minimize the impact! ”

"Obey the order!"

Hu Shifan saluted respectfully and was about to turn around and leave.

The Ministry of Rites, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke.

"Your Majesty, let Hu Shilang do this now, I'm afraid it's too late."

When the Ministry of Rites spoke, he didn't know what he thought, and his expression became a little strange.

"It's late?"

When everyone heard this, they were stunned.

Emperor Wu even asked, "Why?" ”

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu said helplessly: "Because someone is delivering these newspapers all over the street, this is how the newspapers in the hands of the ministers are obtained." ”

The voice fell.

There was silence in the hall.

Obviously, everyone didn't expect that the Qianren would dare to do this so blatantly!

"Why don't you arrest these people!"

Rao is as gentle as Emperor Wu, and at this moment, he couldn't help but feel angry.

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu said helplessly: "The people who distribute newspapers are ordinary people, and some people use one or two treasure money to hire them to distribute newspapers for a day, and such people can be seen everywhere in the entire Gusu City, and if they are arrested, they are afraid that it will cause turmoil." ”

The voice fell.

There was silence in the hall again.

"Such a sinister and treacherous, despicable and shameless trick must have been thought up by the prime minister of the Qianguo!"

Hu Shifan gritted his teeth, bloodshot eyes appeared, and said in a trembling voice: "No matter how you say it, you are also a prime minister, or a regent, how can you be so brazen, what is the difference between these tricks he plays and the ruffians on the street!" It's simply not martial arts! ”

When they heard this, they were all silent.

They also agreed with what Hu Shifan said, these are all ruffians' tricks.

But it's the tricks of the ruffians that make them helpless.

This time.

Hu Song, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

"Your Majesty, according to the old minister's opinion, the matter has come to this point, and the only way to do this is to let the government arrest quickly, control the people who distribute the newspapers for the time being, and then post the notice according to what Hu Shilang said."

Emperor Wu sighed and said helplessly: "It can only be like this." ”

After speaking, he looked at Hu Shifan and said, "Hu Shilang, this matter is still handed over to you." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Hu Shifan knew that the matter was urgent, and after a salute, he left in a hurry.

Han Congwen stood in place, a little in a trance.

Don't think about it, he knows that the door of Dawu Bank must be turned upside down at this moment!

"Your Majesty, after this toss, I am afraid that there are countless people who will exchange the treasure money in their hands for gold and silver in the past few days, how should the minister respond?"

Han Congwen hesitated for a long time, but still asked this question.

Once trust collapses, a run is bound to occur.

In the treasury of Dawu Bank, there is not so much gold and silver exchange.

When the time comes, whether it is allowed to exchange gold and silver, or whether it is not allowed to exchange gold and silver, it will cause consequences that he cannot bear.

Therefore, after thinking about it, it is better to ask clearly.

On the dragon chair, when Emperor Wu heard this question, his brows furrowed, and he did not answer immediately.

Although he did not read economics-related works like Han Congwen.

But he also knew that after this incident, there would definitely be a large number of people to exchange gold and silver.

The imperial court didn't have so much gold and silver for a while, and exchanged it for them.

But if they are not allowed to redeem it, it is tantamount to confirming the content of the newspaper.

Many people who were on the sidelines will also rush to the front.

When the time comes, the entire Gusu Mansion and even the entire Dawu will fall into turmoil!

"We still have to find a safe way."

Emperor Wu thought for a long time and only said this sentence.

Then he looked at Hu Song.

"Come on, give Hu Ge Lao a seat."

Emperor Wu waved his hand and said.

The words fell, and soon a eunuch moved a small bench and placed it behind Hu Song.

"Old minister, thank you, Your Majesty Longen."

Hu Song saluted first, and then sat down.

At his age, he really can't stand for a long time.

After sitting down, I felt that my brain was clearer, and then I heard Emperor Wu ask:

"What Han Qing's family just said, does Hu Ge have a way to deal with it?"

Hu Song listened, but there was still no expression on his face.

"The old minister thinks that if they want to exchange gold and silver, they must not let them exchange it, nor let them exchange it all."

Hu Song looked light-hearted, and said slowly: "In the days of Dawu Bank, in the name of manpower shortage, try to do as little as possible, and let those people wait outside, in short, it's just a word, drag." ”

"Drag?"

Emperor Wu was slightly stunned and asked, "How long will it be delayed?" ”

Hu Song said: "It can be delayed for as long as it can be, for a long time, the so-called treasure money is equivalent to waste paper, and it has been diluted in the hearts of many people, and after a while, the imperial court and the Qianguo will go to war, and many people will forget about this farce."

As long as the cadres no longer print counterfeit treasure money, similar situations will not appear again, and as for those counterfeit treasure money that have already flowed into the people, let them circulate, it is nothing more than the imperial court losing some gold and silver, which is also inevitable. ”

When Emperor Wu heard this, his eyes lit up, he looked at Han Congwen, and said, "What Elder Hu Ge said, did you hear it?" ”

Han Congwen nodded heavily and responded, "The ministers have heard it." ”

"Then let's do it."

Emperor Wu waved his hand.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Han Congwen saluted and turned to leave.

Now.

Only Emperor Wu and Hu Song were left in the hall.

Emperor Wu sat on the dragon chair, looked at the old cabinet chief assistant in front of him, and still had some concerns in his heart, and said: "I heard that there is a fierce general under the prime minister of the Qianguo, named Bai Qi, in the Qianguo and Zhou countries, known as the undefeated god of war, if the prime minister of the Qianguo country transfers Bai Qi to the south, what should I do?" ”

When Hu Song heard this, he was silent for a few seconds, and said: "Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about this matter, although Qian and Zhou are allied, but they are dominated by Qianguo, and the people of Zhou must be unconvinced, so the prime minister of Qianguo needs to sit in charge of Zhou in vain, so as not to have an accident, it is impossible to easily transfer him away." ”

When Emperor Wu heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then his face showed curiosity again, and he muttered to himself:

"If there is a war, I don't know who the prime minister of Qianguo will send to be the commander."

Chang'an Mansion.

The wind and the sun are beautiful, and the sky is cloudless.

Xiangguo's house.

Fang Xiu was thinking about the same question as Emperor Wu, who to send as the main general.

In fact.

Among the martial arts of the Qianguo, there are also many who have the ability to lead the troops, although there is a big gap with Bai Qi, but it will not be a problem to deal with the Wu State.

But.

Out of prudence, Fang Xiu still didn't want to appoint a Qianguo Wuxun as the main general.

"Bai Qi sits in Jinnan and can't move, Qi Jiguang is stationed in Yongzhou, which is very important, and it can't be easily transferred, in this case, it seems that only Gao Shun is left."

In Fang Xiu's heart, Gao Shun was more than enough as a deputy general, but he always felt that it was not suitable to be used as a main general.

After thinking about it, I still didn't choose Gao Shun.

Instead, he opened the system mall and re-searched for a general.

These days.

Except for exchanging some necessary books and drawings, the rest of his mood remained untouched.

Therefore, even if it is exchanged for Wuhou Zhuge Liang, the emotional value is more than enough.

Of course, to deal with a small Wu State, it is not necessary for Wuhou to go out.

Fang Xiu looked at it for a while, and still chose the most cost-effective [Random Celebrity General Summoning Card].

"Yes!"

Fang Xiu's mind moved.
