“…… Oh, yes. Zhu Qingping sighed, "Your Majesty is filial, and there are not many people who have brought him, but most of them have stayed with the concubine." The six palaces and the first division also had to arrange for someone to go over, but the slaves and maids stayed in the Qianqing Palace but couldn't do everything thoroughly, and they couldn't explain His Majesty's rules to them all for a while. ”

As the emperor's dormitory, the Qianqing Palace was sometimes the place where foreign ministers were summoned, and the people used in it were both eunuchs and palace maids.

The eunuchs are currently headed by Gao Zhong, and Huang Jin serves closely.

And the palace maid, there are no tasteless palace maids in the Qianqing Palace. Under Zhu Qingping, there are more than 50 palace maids in the Qianqing Palace.

Of course, not all palace maids serve Zhu Houxi at the same time, generally speaking, they have to work in shifts, and someone has to be on duty at night.

Among these people, naturally most of them are the palace maids in the original palace.

Zhu Houxi remembered that when he was about to brush his teeth in the morning, the little palace maid who was at a loss with a teacup and cried later.

After asking, I learned that she was responsible for "washing the dragon ditch" for the emperor. It sounds weird, but it's actually rinsing your mouth with tea.

When she saw that the emperor was going to brush her teeth with her own toothbrush, she was at a loss as if she had lost the value of her existence, and thought that the emperor was dissatisfied with her.

The toothbrush naturally already existed at this time, and it is said that it was an invention made by Zhu Youzhu and the Empress Dowager Zhang. It's actually a bit of a flattery, and it's true to say that he's improved a bit.

Zhu Houxi is more accustomed to toothbrushes, and he smiled when he heard this: "In the future, it will naturally be a habit to accommodate me, and you can arrange it so that they don't have to be so frightened." I'll take a shower when I'm done with my meal, and I can be a little earlier in the future, and I'll arrange a bath when I come back from my evening run and have some meals. ”

With his style, the palace maid who was on an errand in the Qianqing Palace would not be frightened and tortured in the future, and he would not take a white silk to strangle his neck in the middle of the night, right?

"The slave remembers."

Zhu Qingping smiled, and Zhu Houxi's eyes lit up slightly.

Is it because of her unique status in the palace that her mood has changed and she smiles very movingly, or has her heart begun to be restless because of her ascension to the throne?

Now there are some palace maids in the Qianqing Palace, and Zhu Houxi can also understand it.

But no...... Not really.

It's not that he can't do it physically, but he still has to finish the mourning period and help Zhu Houzhao finish the funeral.

Before Yang Ting and them clarify their right to speak on state affairs, they can't find excuses because of their private lives.

One more lap tomorrow!

Zhu Houxi turned his head and instructed Huang Jin: "It's getting dark, let them all disperse, and come back early tomorrow." ”

Even if he designed the watch head by himself and taught Zhang Zuo and Huang Jin in advance to let them stare here, these eunuchs would not be able to complete it in just one day.

You have to read and find the information you need from a large number of words, and then fill in the header and record it.

But Zhu Houxi gave an incentive: whoever has done the most and best in this matter will be promoted to the head of the clerk's office.

Zhang Zuo is also very hardworking, and he is now more eagerly looking forward to who will be promoted to the head of the clerk's office, so that he can continue to be promoted to become the master of ceremonies and the supervisor Bingbi.

This requires this audit to achieve His Majesty's purpose, although Zhang Zuo does not know what His Majesty's purpose is.

In the busy sound outside, Zhu Houxi first finished dinner, took a shower and changed into light clothes, and then sat down to check the work they had completed today.

Because it is not all excerpted and filled, the analysis cannot be analyzed more.

The main thing is to see if they do it right. Although I also had a preliminary inspection before noon, who knows if there is any deviation in the back?

After taking a closer look, Zhu Houxi gave some suggestions for revisions based on what they made today.

The content to fill in is still getting more and more complicated, and it is not up to the level that he needs to fill in only the key information. For example, a person has to write a large list of official names, or add characters with surnames and surnames.

As for the numbers, there are still people who habitually copy them as they were.

Zhu hopes that at least in this work, they will convert them into Arabic numerals, so that it will be easier for them to count them later.

It seems that this can only be hoped that after they are divided into several groups, the results of the formation will be unified into a final version.

It seems that this job will be handed over to Huang Jin.

So Zhu Houxi called him over, explained the matter, and asked him to ask again tomorrow.

Huang Jin had a bitter face: "Your Majesty is a pedantic, but the method you said, the slave and maid are stupid, and they can barely understand a little bit." ”

He didn't know where His Majesty learned these methods, but it didn't prevent him from patting his ass sincerely.

Zhu Houxi didn't blame him: "That's why I taught you, listen attentively!" ”

In the professional matter, he doesn't have to listen to Lao Qin. Now take it out and let them do it, and as the emperor, there is no need to explain to anyone.

Asking is the way I figured it out myself.

Although it is impossible to verify clearly, the "lame line account", the transition from single-entry bookkeeping to double-entry bookkeeping in China, probably appeared in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.

However, at this time, the accounting records adopted by the government were still single-entry bookkeeping, and there were only two accounting symbols: income and expenditure. Subsequently, at the end of the month, the four-column settlement method of "old management, new income, expulsion, and seeing in" is used to make statistics, that is, the opening balance, the increase in the current period, the decrease in the current period, and the closing balance.

Of course, Zhu Houxi is not going to put all of this into the framework of double-entry bookkeeping.

He is only doing the first step now: to count the old accounts of the past ten years as quickly as possible in his own way, and then compare them with the key figures in various places to find some clues to the problem.

To clarify the current situation and find problems, Zhu Houxi has special audit skills.

Double-entry accounting can more comprehensively and systematically reflect the ins and outs of the increase and decrease of funds, which is helpful to check and ensure the correctness of the results of account books. To promote this thing, there is no foundation yet.

Look at Huang Jin's entangled appearance now: Does Daming have so many professional accounting talents now?

Think about the various warehouse fire cases that Lao Qin said: how many people in Daming are willing to support double-entry accounting now?

……

On the day of his accession to the throne, the emperor brought great mental stimulation to the courtiers.

The day after his accession to the throne, the emperor began to check the accounts, and the stimulus was extended to more officials.

The time and etiquette of the first visit to the court have been set: on the 27th, it will be held at the West Corner Gate next to the Mukden Gate, and everyone will wear silk clothes and do not ring bells and drums. The emperor was released after May 18, and the hundred officials waited until the "funeral" of the Daxing Emperor before he was released. Until then, they were all on the west corner gate.

Now, because Zhu Houzhao's funeral has not been completed, it is also a past practice to temporarily listen to politics at Xijiaomen.

At the same time, the Ministry of Rites also asked Emperor Daxing who needed to send people to pay respects to the construction of the Xuangong Palace. These things have dragged on until now because the emperor's funeral needs to be presided over, and only the successor has this qualification.

Zhu Houxi, who had already made a plan, made arrangements: the imperial mausoleum projects and sacrificial matters related to Emperor Daxing were naturally covered by the Zhang brothers, and at the same time supervised by Gu Dayong.

I hope that the Zhang brothers will continue to play their style and be greedy for something.

Twenty-four, twenty-five, and twenty-sixth, in addition to the backlog of notes sent to the palace the day after he ascended the throne, many new notes were presented to the palace in these three days.

Zhu Houxi had a lot of notes in front of him, and he not only watched it, but also recorded it in his own way.

Now that he was in power, Huang Jin was able to witness the special way of recording the Son of Heaven from the sidelines.

He couldn't understand it, just as he couldn't understand His Majesty's way of checking accounts.

He is the closest person to Zhu Houxi, but in his mind, His Majesty is really more and more shrouded in mysterious and sacred colors, and it seems that he is really a child of destiny, and his talent has its own miraculousness.

Zhu Houxi concentrated.

The first letter was jointly issued by several competent officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War, saying that the northern captives were watching, the border defense was under martial law, and the salaries of the officials and soldiers of the Xuanfu had been in short supply for a long time. They mentioned: Emperor Daxing "went north" before the "Northern Expedition" and stored a lot of money and grain in Xuanfu, which was prepared for border salaries. Now, do you want to let the other side take out 200,000 taels first?

The corners of Zhu Houxi's mouth curled.

Judging from the accounts checked in the past four days, the money is managed by the eunuch forces, which is equivalent to Zhu Houzhao's former "small treasury".

The main thing is the figure of 200,000.

Zhu Houxi has now found out, and the sum of the silver on each side is only more than 400,000 taels per year. Now he wants to allocate 200,000 taels from here in one go, Zhu Houxi thought about it, but approved the word "quasi".

The guard system has basically rotted to the roots, and the grain in the tuntian is no longer as it was at the beginning of the founding of the country, in addition to supplying the soldiers of the guard, there is still surplus food. Recruitment began to be tried as early as the Xuande period, and now the proportion is not low, and these need to be paid for money.

Zhu Houxi remembered that Lao Qin said that the annual military salary in the late Jiajing period exceeded 2 million taels, and he knew that the resolution of this matter would affect the interests of many people.

Let's lay the groundwork here.

The next letter was even better, Zhu Houxi raised his head and shouted with a smile: "Wei Bin? ”

"Slaves and maids are ......"

Wei Bin sent over the solution he had discussed with Gu Dayong and Zhang Yong early this morning, but Zhu Houxi hadn't had time to look at it yet.

After he knelt down, he listened to Zhu Houxi pick up a letter and read it: "The ministers supervise the impeachment of Wang Jun of the imperial history: Wei Bin, the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch, and Jiang Bin, the rebel of evil, are both in-laws, and they are internal and external. The eunuchs Zhang Zhong, Yu Jing, and Su Jin, or fought for merit and provoked, trapped Zhongliang, or opened the emperor's store for the first time, resented Li Shu, or guided the patrol and poisoned the Quartet......"
