Chapter 90: The Chronicle of Affairs, the Book of Prosperity!
With the handling of the rebellion of Taihe Wang Huang Jingming, Zhao Yu was also a little tired.
After all, since he ascended the throne as the emperor to the present, his nerves have been tense every day, for fear of revealing the slightest flaw.
Now that the dust has settled, a sense of tiredness suddenly arises from the depths of my bones.
"Ladies and gentlemen, if there is no objection to today's matter, let's discuss it here for the time being. Scatter the dynasty! β
Zhao Yu waved his hand.
"RetreatβToward β"
Seeing this, Gao Lishi on the side hurriedly shouted.
"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"
After the ministers shouted long live, they withdrew from the Taiji Hall one after another.
"Outside the Horbatter, Outside the Horbald, and later."
He Bayun had just walked out of the Taiji Hall, and before he had walked a few steps, he heard someone behind him shouting his name.
Nodding to his two brothers, and signaling them to go home first, He Bayun turned around, saw the person coming, and hurriedly bowed and saluted:
"It turned out to be a tall mink, I don't know what the high mink called the lower officials to order?"
For this servant who is being favored by His Majesty's side, he does not dare to offend at all.
Although his three brothers have made some contributions, they are a little inadequate compared to this one.
"Our family was ordered by His Majesty to come and call out to Heba."
Gao Lishi smiled and returned the salute, and seeing that there were few people around, Fang said in a low voice:
"He Ba entered the palace with our family, and His Majesty seems to have something important to entrust him."
Hearing Gao Lishi's words, He Bayun was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes showed ecstasy, but he was quickly suppressed again, and said again and again:
"Thank you Gao Mink Jue for mentioning the point, the lower officials will definitely thank you in the future."
Gao Lishi smiled and said: "You and I are both working for Your Majesty, and it would be too much to say thank you or not." Let's go to the side hall first, don't make Your Majesty wait for a long time. β
Gao Lishi now also understands that as long as he is trusted by His Majesty and has endless favor, gold, silver, treasures, antiques and jade are not all readily available.
Therefore, it is enough to occasionally accept some gifts from courtiers, but you must not be too greedy.
Compared with these few possessions, it is obviously more important to be trusted by His Majesty.
The two came to the side hall of the Taiji Hall together.
"Weichen He Bayun, meet Your Majesty."
Seeing Zhao Yu, who was sitting after a few cases and reviewing the folds, He Bayun hurriedly bowed to him.
"Get up." Zhao Yu put down the pen, looked at He Bayun, and said warmly: "He Baqing, I have an important matter for you to do. β
He Batyun said with a smile: "Please Your Majesty command, He Bat's death will not give up!" β
Zhao Yu rubbed the dragon head on the armrest of the dragon chair, frowned slightly, pondered for a while, and said:
"I am with you, set up the Editorial Mansion, temporarily assume the position of the head of the mansion, lead the four products, and be directly responsible to me. I will give you an edict, first from the forbidden army to draw capable manpower, the money needed, the treasury side of the ministry I will greet the household, although my inner treasury is a little small, also take out a third, talk about the heart, the right to support. β
When He Bayun heard this, his heart was shocked, and he immediately knelt on the ground, and said in fear:
"Your Majesty, rest assured, Weichen will do his best to repay the king's kindness!"
Now in Zhao Yu's hands, although there are several talents, they all have their own uses.
Gao Lishi is a personal eunuch, Zhang Xiu is in charge of the guard, and Fan Zhen, who is the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, is the two barriers to protect Zhao Yu, Huang Zhong and Wei Yan are in charge of the Beijing army camp, training soldiers, Du Yu is his own think tank, Wang Pu on his side, he just gave him a privy council burden, and now the shelf has not been erected.
As for He Batyue and He Batsheng, they are the choice of generals in the future, and it is quite a waste to put them on this;
Although Wang Xiongtan and Kan Ling were good generals for a while, they were much worse than He Ba, and it was not appropriate to be in charge of this aspect of affairs.
But in addition, Zhao Yu also needs to have an intelligence agency similar to Jinyiwei in the Ming Dynasty, which belongs directly to himself, supervising hundreds of officials internally and listening to intelligence externally.
This heavy task, when Zhao Yu is unavailable, can only fall to He Bayun.
But this is also a reflection of Zhao Yu's trust in He Bayun.
After all, Ho Batyun's average six-dimensional is also around 75 points, and it is enough to serve as this errand temporarily.
When you have a suitable candidate in the future, it's not too late to adjust.
"I believe in He Baqing's ability, and I will not be disappointed."
Zhao Yu nodded, and then drafted a will and handed it to He Bayun.
"He Baqing, don't be in a hurry about this matter, you first go to Commander Zhang's side to lead a team of people, and personally go to those people's mansions to confiscate the family property! Colliers! β
When Gao Lishi heard this, he had already prepared, and hurriedly handed a bright yellow holy decree to He Bayun.
"Weichen, Leader!"
Regarding He Bayun's crisp and neat attitude, Zhao Yu was quite satisfied.
Although Huang Jingming, the former Taihe King, is known as a clear name in the court, the characteristics of the national information [corruption of the court] cannot be faked.
The above reasons are also clear: because Taihe Wang Huang Jingming controlled the government and covered the sky with one hand, the officials of the Taihe Wang Party acted recklessly, using the authority of the Taihe royal palace to seek personal interests and corrupt the government.
Huang Jingming may not be a corrupt official, but does he dare to guarantee that every one of his subordinates is not a corrupt official?
Zhao Yu expressed strong doubts about this!
There are still more than 10 million taels of silver in the treasury, but in front of a country, this amount of money is not much at all, and it can even be said that it is not enough at all!
The entire Chu State combined, from south to north, from east to west, there are about 560,000 soldiers and horses, not to mention the maintenance and repair of weapons and armor, not to mention the purchase and transportation reserves of grain and grass materials, these 560,000 or so soldiers, a person's annual salary is about 20 taels of silver, roughly calculated, but the salary will cost about 11 million silver.
This is not counting the expenses of hundreds of officials, the operation of the court, the construction of roads and bridges, etc., in case of another drought like the Lingchuan Mansion, the money in the treasury is like a flood, and it can't be stopped!
Therefore, the emperors of all dynasties have a common book of getting rich, and there are only a few words on it, that is:
Raid the house!
The treasury is out of money?
Raid the house!
The inner treasury is out of money?
Raid the house!
As long as you don't have money to spend, then raid your home!
Copying the homes of those corrupt officials can not only subsidize the treasury and make up for the shortfall, but also deter hundreds of officials and gain the hearts of the people, so why not?
I didn't see the Jiaqing copy and the Shen family, and the gold and silver copied out, plus other antique treasures, the total value reached 800 million to 1.1 billion taels of silver, even more than the total revenue of the Qing Dynasty government in 15 years!
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Two hours later.
A group of forbidden troops, led by He Bayun, came to the mansion of Zhang Liuqi, the former secretary of the Ministry of War.
Looking at the splendid Shangshu Mansion, He Bayun subconsciously frowned, and with a wave of his hand, he led the forbidden army to break in.
"Stop!"
"Who are you, the border army is still from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, so ignorant of the rules?"
"It's really impatient to dare to trespass into my lord's mansion!"
Seeing that someone had trespassed into the mansion, the family members guarding the vermilion gate were suddenly unhappy, and they all opened their mouths and scolded.
As the saying goes, the prime minister has seven officials in front of the door.
As the core of the Taihe Wang Party, Zhang Liuqi, the secretary of the military department, can be described as a high authority, so he naturally does not take ordinary officials in his eyes, and even with it, the vision of the gatekeeper has also increased, and he has developed the problem of consciously being superior to others and looking down on people with dog eyes.
Therefore, they do not look at ordinary generals in their eyes.
He Bayun narrowed his eyes, raised his hand to stop the forbidden soldier who wanted to scold, took out a bright yellow edict from his arms, and said coldly:
"In accordance with His Majesty's holy decree, Zhang Liuqi, the secretary of the Ministry of War, bent the law for bribes, formed a party for personal gain, despised royal power, and conspired to rebel, his heart can be punished, and his crime is unforgivable. Give, all over the house! β
With that, he shouted to the crowd gathered around:
"Idle people, wait for them, retreat immediately!"
However, to the surprise of the forbidden army, the gatekeeper still didn't care when he saw the holy decree taken out by his own lord.
"Hmph, Your Majesty's holy decree is not as useful as the edict of Lord Taihe! What's more, that faint ......"
Before he finished speaking, a cold sword light completely occupied his field of vision.
He Bayun put his sword back into its sheath as usual, raised his right foot, and stomped on the dead head.
In an instant, flesh and blood splattered!
Seeing this bloody scene, the crowd suddenly erupted in an exclamation.
"Dare to insult the saint, you will die innocently!"
He Bayun said, waved his hand, and said coldly:
"Enter the house! All the people in the house were taken to the edict prison and waited for the third division of Hou to interrogate! β
"Raid the house! If anyone dares to stop it, there will be no forgiveness! β
With He Bayun's order, the guards, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, rushed into the mansion with weapons in hand.
For a moment, the voices of wailing, begging for mercy, and cries rang out.
In less than an hour, piles of gold, silver, jewelry, and boxes of antiques, calligraphy and paintings were turned out, and escorted to the palace under the escort of the officials who arrived later.
Glancing at the family members who were guarded by the guards in the corner of the mansion, He Bayun waved his hand and said:
"Leave a few brothers here to guard, and wait for the Criminal Department and Dali Temple to come and lead people. The rest of the people, wait for the rest of the house, go to the next place with the lord of this mansion! Today, you and I must finish the things that Your Majesty has explained, so that we can support the name of our government! β
"Yes, Lord Mansion!"
When the guards heard this, their morale immediately rose and they responded in unison.
Seeing this group of people who claimed to be in the "Jishi Mansion" rushing in one direction, the onlookers couldn't help but look at each other.
Looks like something big is wrong!
"Then, isn't that the mansion of Zhong Shangshu of the Criminal Department?"
Suddenly, there was an exclamation from the crowd.
"Let's go, let's see!"
"Go along! Let's go! β
The crowd was silent at first, and then chased after He Bayun and the others in the noise.
On the same day, the mansions of several senior officials of the DPRK and China were raided, and all their families were taken to the imperial prison.
When the news came out, Shengjing City shook!
In the streets and alleys, almost all the people, with awe, whispered about what the one in the palace had done!
It's just that no one dares to shout that one on the street anymore as a "faint king".
In this way, Zhao Yu entered the hearts of the people of Shengjing in an extremely iron-blooded and domineering way.
