As if in response to what Chongzhen just said, the people around him took off their outer robes with brushes, revealing the flying fish suit inside.

Li Ruolian even pulled out an embroidered spring knife from the silver box behind him, staring at the two Fu Wang with blazing eyes.

King Fu, who had been fighting all night, also woke up at this time, he couldn't check the authenticity of the speaker, but the Jinyi Guard, who had been used to seeing him since he was a child, couldn't fake it.

King Fu was in a stirring mood, just pretending to be sick and not going to Jingshi, which can only be said to be a small crime.

But just said that he could also be a saint, but it was a big rebellion.

If you go against the grain, you will lose your head if you are serious, and you may also be eliminated by the country!

Looking at Chongzhen again, he had quietly shrunk into the protective circle of Jinyiwei.

With a snap, King Fu fell to his knees, "Imperial nephew, I'm confused." What I just said was my gaffe, so don't take it seriously. ”

Chongzhen frowned and asked, "You are my imperial uncle Fuwang?" ”

King Fu nodded shamefully.

Chongzhen said, "But I've seen the portrait of you just reaching the crown in the palace, and I'm not as fat as you." ”

King Fu blurted out, "I was still very thin at that time. ”

Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he shook his head violently, causing the fat on his face and neck to tremble.

"That's right! Holy Lord, you are right, I am not the Blessed King! ”

"I don't think you look like that." Chongzhen continued to look at King Fu.

"I heard that my imperial uncle is the most motivated, how can he play cards every day?"

"Yes, yes, although I am an unemployed vagrant, I know that His Highness has a lot of hands every day." King Fu responded with a mouthful.

"I heard that my imperial uncle is the most pure filial piety, how can he insult his imperial grandmother's family as a slave and a maid?"

King Fu nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, His Royal Highness King Fu must not have said such bastard words." ”

He was a little happy in his heart, it seemed that this imperial nephew was still benevolent and righteous, although he had made himself yin, but he did not kill them all, and deliberately pretended not to recognize himself.

In this way, at least his own feudal country can be preserved.

As for the 200,000 taels of silver, I will feed the dogs as this king.

While thinking about it, Chongzhen said again, "I heard that my imperial uncle is the most obedient, how can he covet the emperor's position?" ”

King Fu was taken aback, "That's right, Your Majesty." His Royal Highness, he has always wished that Emperor Taichang could live a long life, and he has no idea about the throne at all! ”

Chongzhen nodded, "In that case, what are you trying to do here by pretending to be King Fu and saying those rebellious words?" ”

King Fu is in a dilemma, if he admits that he is King Fu, then the throne will not be guaranteed.

If he denies that he is the Fu King, then he doesn't even know how Chongzhen will concoct himself next.

With a horizontal heart, King Fu shouted, "I just see His Royal Highness King Fu is smart, benevolent and filial, and a winner in life, which is really unpleasant." Deliberately to frame him. ”

"Good! Now that you've confessed, I won't say anything more. Li Ruolian, let's escort King Fu down. ”

Li Ruolian received the order, but he didn't do more physical contact with King Fu, "This, please go." ”

King Fu couldn't help but be short of breath, and for a moment, he felt as if he had chosen the wrong one.

However, as a vassal king of the Ming Dynasty, especially in the late Ming Dynasty, he actually did not have much power to choose.

Chongzhen looked at Zhao Si, who was curled up on the side, and said to the Jinyi guard beside him,

"Don't forget, I said I'm going to break his leg."

To achieve the biggest purpose of this trip, Chongzhen turned to live openly in Mei Zhihuan's governor's yamen.

While waiting for Mei Zhihuan to clean up the servant Hao Shang who had sheltered King Fu and opened his teeth and claws.

While inspecting the documents and files of the local government, looking for malpractices in them.

During this period, King Fu's housekeeper took King Fu's son to beg Chongzhen for mercy, and in order to perfunctory them, Chongzhen allowed them to meet King Fu who was still imprisoned inside.

Unexpectedly, after seeing Queen Fu, he refused to admit that he was King Fu in front of the prince, but repeatedly persuaded the other party to take out the silver to help the court.

King Fu's Mansion originally wanted to shout grievances everywhere and win over other Zhongzhou vassal kings to create momentum, but now they had to give up.

can only sell the floating wealth in the house as King Fu said, and make money to buy life for King Fu.

On this day, Mei Zhihuan came to see Chongzhen and reported to him on the follow-up of dealing with the slaves of the Fu Wang.

"Your Majesty, please see, these are several giants who secretly sold salt, silk, tamba, and antiques for King Fu in Luoyang, and they turned out to be domestic slaves in the house."

"The ministers copied their shops, houses, calligraphy and paintings, and they had not yet had time to estimate them, but the floating wealth on the account alone amounted to 500,000 taels."

"So much?" Chongzhen was startled and put down the page in his hand.

Mei Zhihuan pinched his fingers and said, "They are all the most profitable businesses, plus King Fu is powerful, and the original merchants in Luoyang who dare to compete with them have all been squeezed down." ”

Chongzhen nodded and took a sip of tea.

It turned out to be a monopoly business, no wonder it was so profitable.

"Also, the housekeeper of King Fu's Mansion came to me again in the past few days, saying that the palace is willing to pay 400,000 taels for the border army of the Ming Dynasty, just to let King Fu go home."

"Didn't I tell you, King Fu is in his mansion in a good manner, we just caught a liar."

Chongzhen was a little dissatisfied in his heart, it was only 400,000 taels, and he was not even as good as the slaves of the royal palace.

"They are willing to help, and I won't stop them, just send them directly to Qin Jin."

Coupled with the 200,000 taels that King Fu lost before, there are millions of taels of income from this trip, which is at least enough for the military expenses and military salaries for most of the Northwest War for more than half a year, and there is even a balance.

Chongzhen thought for a while, and then said, "Inform Yang Qiyu with the military salary, and let him do what he can, and pay the arrears of military salaries to the soldiers who are still holding out in the towns in the northwest." If other rebels are interested in accepting Zhao'an, they can also receive the arrears, but these people cannot stay in their hometowns, and they will be scattered or sent to other border towns and garrisons. ”

Mei Zhihuan's old face turned red, just because there were many chaotic troops in the northwest, and he fled when he was the king of Qin.

However, Chongzhen's instructions have been completed, but he doesn't care, "Tomorrow, I will also return to Beijing." ”

Mei Zhihuan waited carefully, and hurriedly asked the saint what other gifts he had.

Chongzhen pointed to the document he had just looked through and said, "I noticed that the price of grain seems to be getting lower and lower in the past few years? ”

Mei Zhihuan nodded, "Your Majesty, the wind and rain have been smooth in the past few years, and there have been bumper harvests year after year. The grain is a little unsellable. ”

Chongzhen sighed, "This is the Gu Cheap Hurting Peasants." Since the price of grain is low, the peasants may sell all the harvest of the year and not enough to pay the silver. ”

"Mei Zhihuan, you will establish a Yicang in Henan after that, and when you encounter a good year, you will use the retention to buy grain and put it in the Yicang, until the price of grain is raised to the average price line of previous years. If there is any arrears in paying taxes to the household department in the future, I will tell you about it. ”

Mei Zhihuan said with emotion, "Your Majesty, this is really benevolent. It's just that Zhongzhou has a rich income, and I'm afraid it's difficult to use the grain in this Yicang. ”

Chongzhen sighed, "If I could, I also hope that I don't have to use the money in this righteous warehouse." ”
