Immediately, the Son of Heaven denied the refreshing idea just now, "No, no, Brother Liangshan is uneven, if they all come, I am afraid that the world will be even more chaotic." ”

"That's it, let's put these things behind and take care of the urgent matters at hand."

Wei Zaode is now the head of the cabinet, and according to the rules, he has to speak first.

As soon as I walked to the middle, I cleared my throat and prepared to report.

A voice came from the dragon chair: "The 150,000 taels of silver you promised yesterday have you ever paid today?" ”

Wei Zaode's face turned green, and he said in his heart You are the emperor, how can you be like a usury housekeeper in my house, and you will talk about money when you come up, and didn't you say it was okay yesterday, and you will pay it three days later.

It can be turned into 150,000 taels of silver in one day and one night, even if Wei Zhongxian is resurrected, he can't do it.

When Zhang Juzheng was in his heyday, he went to raid his house, probably okay.

But more than 200 years of the Ming Dynasty, there was a Zhang Taiyu!

But what can Wei Shoufu do?

There are dissatisfaction and grievances, so I can only hold my stomach.

He didn't want to fly up and land on the threshold and be ticked over his head......

Looking up again, the Son of Heaven was sitting cross-legged on the dragon chair, holding the ledger in his right hand...... Fierce eyes......

It's not like there is a Dao Mingjun, but it's similar to the judge next to the king of Hades.

"Ahem" Wei Zaode said stiffly: "Back to Your Majesty, after the next court yesterday, the minister asked the family to quickly raise silver, the sooner the better, but, but the minister, the minister's family is poor, and he will not be able to get the silver for a while, and he has to sell some items to make it up, Your Majesty can rest assured, it will be ...... in three days."

"Huh?" A voice of confusion came from above.

Wei Zaode hurriedly changed his words: "Yes, it will be two days later, two days later, it will be must, it will be ......."

"And," Wei Zaode swallowed and said, "Chen Ge's old mansion also agreed, and he can bring the silver in two days." It's just, it's just ......"

"Don't hesitate, if you have something to say, if you have a fart, let it go!"

"Yes, yes, Chen Ge Lao's child means, can you let them take Chen Ge Lao back first...... To fulfill filial piety ......"

This request is also reasonable, Wei Zaode knows that the palace will definitely not prepare a coffin for Chen Yan.

With this person's temperament, not throwing it into a mass grave to feed the dog is already a great grace of the emperor.

But everyone is dead, and it's not too much to put a coffin first.

After three days of mortuary, there will be a large set of funerals to be held.

Mencius said, in order to send the dead to be a big thing.

After all, it was the old head of the pavilion who died.

"You tell the Chen family, the Sprinkle family...... When do I pay the money, when do I pull the corpse...... The weather is very cold, and if you put it in the north-facing courtyard, it won't rot for three to five days, so let them rest assured. If I'm afraid of rotting, I can go and bleed the corpse again, and then it can last longer. ”

Wei Dezao almost vomited blood, and said in his heart, "The price of the corpse is demanded, your old Zhu family is ruthless enough." And bloodletting, why don't you say that it was salted with salt and lime! ”

But he can only make promises.

Next, the Son of Heaven pinched the account book and reconciled the accounts with the ministers one by one.

Only Fang Yuegong completed the task, and the others were in the court, but he arranged for his son to take the silver to the household department early in the morning to pay the account.

The Son of Heaven was furious: "You are also an unhappy person, and you are an official and a good worker."

I don't have any money, I will only rush to ...... early" Fang Yuegong felt bitter, he pawned the house in exchange for these money, but he was disliked by the Son of Heaven.

He is loyal and good, but he just kowtows and does not dare to argue.

The more the Son of Heaven spoke, the more angry he became, he grabbed a brush from the side and scratched it on the account book: "You don't want this silver, you don't want to sprinkle it, keep it for yourself!" ”

"This ......" Fang Yuegong looked at the emperor incomprehensibly.

The emperor's face was blank, "It's none of your business!" ”

……

After reconciling accounts with Zhu Aiqing, he announced the dissolution of the dynasty.

In the imperial garden, Wang Chengen followed behind him and asked, "Long live, why humiliate Fang Shangshu today......

"Duh," Emperor Chongzhen said, "Although the Sprinkle family kills people without blinking, they know that they are good at relying on people." Fang Lao'er, this time he took out the coffin, he and his family are all in Beijing, how will they live in the future? Right now, it's going to be money, but it's not a lot of his five thousand taels......"

"Scolding back is to save some face for him, otherwise I am afraid that it will be difficult for my colleagues in the future......"

Wang Chengen woke up like a dream: "The Holy Ming is better than the Son of Heaven!" ”

"That's nature, the great wisdom of the family, you can't wait" The emperor strutted his head.

Wang Chengen sighed quietly: "This resourcefulness is not mortal...... I don't know which of the emperors of my Ming Dynasty has accumulated virtue, and there is a big hero and hero. ”

After lunch, it was time for the emperor to read the folds.

It's just that Lu Zhishen really doesn't want to read these flat and stable words, and he can write and explain things clearly in three or five sentences, but he wants to write a big book in four or six sentences.

This annoyed him exactly.

"Smack" he slammed a book on the table.

"Long live, rest the anger, stop the anger" Wang Chengen hurriedly picked up the fold and glanced at it a few times, he is the eunuch of the ceremonial supervisor Bingbi, and he has this power.

"You see, it's nothing more than a flood in the south, and the court wants to allocate money for disaster relief, but it is written that the old man is old, are these officials full of food and have nothing to do? I can't say it, let Dongchang arrest him, starve him for three days, and he can't drink water! When he can't pee, he will grind his teeth again! ”

Wang Chengen's head was full of black lines, and he couldn't answer, just nodded.

This is an old problem of the Ming Dynasty, and Emperor Taizu used the court staff to beat people for this purpose, but it was useless......

"Convey the message, from now on, all the folds and folds to change the format, before the text, you must write an abstract, and there are keywords! Otherwise, it will not be issued. ”

"Hey......" Wang Chengen's brain was down, "Hooray, this, summary, and keywords to reconcile?" ”

"Well, the summary, it's just three or two sentences, explain the matter clearly, well, just decide, within 140 words, more than one word ten strokes, a fine of one year!"

Then he gave Wang Chengen a rough explanation of the meaning of the summary and keywords.

After a cup of tea, Lao Wang said: "Your Majesty Shengming, in this way, as long as you look at more than a hundred words, you can roughly understand the situation, and you can save a lot of time." ”

He is happy, the celebrant is the emperor's secretarial organization, and he has to read countless books every day, Wang Chengen is old, his eyesight is poor, he has to serve by Chongzhen's side during the day, and he only has time to look at the folding folds at night, and look at these extremely boring pavilions in the candlelight, it is really not a pleasant experience.

It is much more convenient to have an abstract, not to mention that the Son of Heaven also proposed to add references and appendices after the excerpt to prevent the following nonsense on the data source.

It's also a good idea.

Wang Chengen admired it, and said cautiously: "Long live, the slave is blunt, please also dial it."

"That's it"

"Why is this summary 140 words?"

"What's this?" Lu Zhishen suddenly became impatient: "140 is 140, the Sprinkle family thinks casually." Hugh wants to be Luo! ”

"Yes, yes!" Wang Chengen nodded in agreement.

"Sprinkle family headache, you can batch these folds first, and then come back and see it later!" After speaking, he strode towards the Imperial Garden.

Under a bare willow tree, the Son of Heaven fell into deep thought: "What is a summary? What are keywords? Speaking of keywords, why do you think of sensitive porcelain, and what kind of porcelain is this? Let Wang Chengen find a eunuch in Jingdezhen to ask? And why 140 words? ”

I didn't know why after thinking about it for a long time, so I immediately had an epiphany - then don't think about it.

There's still a bunch of twists and turns to see in the study......

The Son of Heaven sighed: "I didn't know a few big words in my previous life, but it's not a bad thing!" This bird is so angry to watch! ”

The Son of Heaven read the moral article for half an hour, and felt sleepy, so he beat his spirit and said: "Wang Chengen, if the Sprinkle family wants to build a blade, who should they look for?" ”

"Well, if the amount is not large, you can find a general as a prisoner, but long live, there is an arsenal in the palace, and there are a lot of good blades in it, if Your Majesty needs it, it would be good to pick one."

"Hey" Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand, "Don't ask, it must not be in line with the family's wishes." The stick is do, but the wood is not strong......"

Wang Chengen said in his heart, this thing is not strong?

The dog's head is notoriously hard, and after your old man smashed several in one go, this stick is exactly as good as the new one, except for a little red and white stuff.

As he spoke, he pulled a piece of rice paper, grabbed a pen and scribbled on it.

"This is ......" Wang Chengen glanced at the paper and felt a chill behind him.

"Well, the Sprinkler family wants this convenient shovel, a shovel in the front, a crescent in the back, all have to be bladed, not too long, the rod is five feet long enough, uh, the weight must be right, sixty-two pounds, not light, not heavy, have you ever understood."

"Hey, hey, slave, I know" Wang Chengen wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said in his heart, no wonder he said that the rafters were not easy to use last night, compared with this thing, the hardwood rafters are really not enough.

Sixty-two pounds of Zen staff......

Don't say that if you shovel people with a blade, you just sweep it horizontally, and you can't stand it.

"By the way, take care of the craftsman to use good iron, and after the fine water grinding, it is a good blade"

"The slave and maid understand, leave this matter to the slave and maid, and let the palace supervisor do his best."

Wang Chengen nodded in agreement, folded the drawings, and kicked them in his arms.

"Slave maid, this is going to be a prisoner", he called a eunuch in the hall, and told him to temporarily lead the class to serve the Son of Heaven, and come when he goes.

He hurried through the Forbidden City, and when he passed by Kunning Palace, he heard several little palace maids and little eunuchs chatting together.

Several people chatted energetically, but they didn't notice that the chief eunuch in charge was already behind them.

Wang Chengen listened to it for a while, and the corners of the wall became a little hairy.

It is said that the Kunning Palace, where the queen lives, is haunted, and it is as cold as an ice cave at night, and there is a faint cry.

If this may be a hallucination, then for two days in a row, the courtyard was covered with locust leaves every morning, which made people really creepy.

Huai, left wood and right ghost.

It is inauspicious to take the locust tree wherever people live, and this is the case for ordinary people, and even more so for the royal family.

In short, there is no such tree in the Forbidden City.

Whoever dares to plant this thing will be dragged out and killed.

But the locust tree is an excellent tree species, easy to survive, after planting without care, it can grow luxuriantly, the summer in the capital is extremely hot, the sun is sunburning, and it is also a beautiful thing to have a big locust tree to shade the sun.

After a long time, everyone's attitude towards locust trees has changed a little, and they can't be planted in front of the house and behind the house, but it doesn't hurt to plant a few trees in the garden.

There are no locust trees in the imperial city, but there are in the imperial garden with the Shenwu Gate in the north of the imperial city.

That place was originally the ancient channel of the Yongding River, and later the river was diverted into a small mound, in the early years of Yongle, Ming Chengzu built a large number of buildings, with this mound to deal with the position of the northern Xuanwu, when there is a mountain. 、

He ordered the excavation of the Forbidden City's Guanzi River, Taiye, and South China Sea to pile up on this mound to form five peaks, also known as Banzai Mountain.

But because in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, in order to prevent the remnant Yuan army from besieging Beijing, Zhu Yuanzhang had ordered to hoard coal, and those coals were piled up here.

That's why everyone calls this mountain a coal mountain.

The scenery of Coal Mountain is good, and a crooked-necked locust tree on the east side of the mountain is famous for its strange shape.
