When several favorite concubines heard the six million silver, they were stunned again. Qianxue stiffened her neck and replied: "Husband, in this purge, we knocked on the bones and sucked the marrow, and completely offended the former nobles, old eunuchs, and monks in the capital, and copied all the ones who could be copied, and barely copied out 10 million taels of silver."

And 10 million taels of silver, or to include gold and copper.

Most of this is due to the monks, who opened monasteries and made money quickly, and they had a lot of money in their hands. ”

Zhu Qiyu was a little helpless when he heard this: "The eldest brother Gong asked the emperor to repair an imperial mausoleum It cost six million taels, and we copied the house with our heads covered for a long time, but we copied less than two imperial mausoleums." ”

Qianxue shook her head: "That's not necessarily, the slave said that there is only so much silver, and we have also copied a huge amount of rare treasures, shops, and fertile fields, which is the bulk of wealth."

These can be exchanged for tens of millions of taels of silver, but it takes time to sell them out.

Moreover, there are also confiscated feudal kings' property, with a total value of at least more than 10 million taels, which have not yet been transported to the capital. ”

"That's okay, allocate 2 million taels to Shandong, 2 million taels to Fujian and Zhejiang, and 2 million taels to Gansu.

Of the two million taels in Gansu, one million taels was promised to King Su, and one million taels was handed over to Li Xuan and Ma Ang for joint management.

We invested a lot in Gansu and made a heavy bet, hoping that Li Xuan would not let me down. ”

Lin Xiangyu praised: "The husband is really big, Li Xuan is so young, the husband handed over all the northwest military to him." ”

Zhu Qiyu smiled indifferently: "Li Wenzhong has already led the army independently when he was twenty years old, don't look at Xu Da and Chang Yuchun's reputation, but Li Wenzhong is very capable of fighting, super capable of fighting."

I believe that the Li family has a family tradition of leading troops to fight, and I also believe that Li Xuan has the legacy of Li Wenzhong.

Besides, if you want to discover the commander of the army, you have to try. How do you know if you don't try?

Just like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he just tried blindly. It's just that I was lucky in the early stage, and I tried Wei Qing and Huo Quai.

If you look at the later period, I estimate that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty must have been angry and had a heart attack: Zhao Ponu, 20,000 cavalry was wiped out, and he was captured.

Li Guangli has fought several big defeats, but he can't say it. In the last battle, the entire army of 70,000 cavalry was annihilated, and I broke the jar and surrendered directly.

Li Ling, the whole army was annihilated, and he was captured.

That's how it is to fight, if you are right, you will be powerful, and if you are not right, you will be honest.

What I can do is to arrange for Li Xuan to have a remnant of Warat whose strength has been hit hard, which is already very good to bully, as long as he doesn't wave, he will definitely win, let him practice first.

We can't be as mean as King Zhao Xiaocheng, as soon as we come up, we will directly throw Zhao Kuo to Bai Qi, and take this invincible Wu Anjun plus 600,000 peak Qin troops to practice their hands.

Can you blame Zhao Kuo for this, who is the one who directly took the white hand to practice as soon as he was in charge, isn't it funny. ”

Lin Xiangyu praised: "My husband is really good to his cronies, and he thinks about them everywhere. ”

Zhu Qiyu snorted coldly: "Hmph, kindness is not rewarded, I am also very good to you, but you don't even let you take concubines." The emperors of the previous dynasty who would enjoy happiness had 10,000 people in the harem at every turn, but I was good, fifteen, and they were firmly condemned to death. ”

Qianxue smiled: "But a few of us are easy to use, the slave family has prepared a big surprise for the husband, do you want to take a look?" ”

"Big surprise? Okay, let's go. ”

……

Nothing was said for days.

In the blink of an eye, it is August 20th.

The weather is getting colder, and the autumn is crisp.

After the turmoil caused by the Tumubao Incident tossed the civil and military officials for two whole years, the court situation has really calmed down this time, and the mentality of the hundred officials has gradually returned to peace.

Early this morning, Wang Wen and others gathered in the cabinet, and after greeting each other, they made tea and prepared to read the newspaper while drinking tea.

At present, the Department of General Administration publishes two kinds of newspapers, one is the former Di newspaper, and the other is the daily newspaper of the director of Lian Gang.

Although all the transcripts were handled by the Cabinet, and most of the news could not escape the eyes of the Cabinet, these scholars still developed the habit of reading newspapers.

Because there is still a lot of information in the daily newspaper that the cabinet does not know, some of which are the movements of the inner court, and some of which are directly arranged by the emperor.

From the daily newspaper, word by word analysis, the emperor's intentions can be carefully figured out.

The ministers will also discuss and communicate with each other.

Jiang Yuan first read the newspaper roughly, and then smiled at everyone: "You see, the old Han palace where the imperial concubine lived was changed into the Han Emperor Temple, which was dedicated to the seven Han emperors, and the surrounding old Han palace garden and the old Qi palace garden were combined and changed into a large garden for the people of the capital to visit.

The saint is really generous, the land of the capital is gold, and it has been transformed into a garden and allowed the people to visit. ”

Xu Youzhen smiled: "This is a good thing, in the capital, except for the streets and alleys, there are shops and mansions, and there is not even a place to hang out."

Let's be honest, living in the city, it's really boring. No wonder the saint had to go to the western suburbs, where the mountains and rivers are beautiful and the scenery is picturesque, much better than the chaos in the city.

And this well in the city, all of them are bitter, and they are really fatal. If I could, I'd run away. ”

The crowd echoed and cried bitterly.

Wei Ji didn't care much about this, but asked, "Which seven Han emperors do the saints want to worship?" ”

Jiang Yuan replied: "Emperor Taizu Gao, Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, Emperor Zhongzong Xiaoxuan, Emperor Shizu Guangwu, Emperor Xianzong Xiaoming, Emperor Suzong Xiaozhang, Emperor Zhaolie. ”

Wei Ji nodded: "Fortunately, there is no Emperor Shizong Xiaowu, which means that the saint does not want to be reckless." The above seven Han emperors, no matter which one the saint takes as an example, there is no problem. ”

Wang Wen also answered: "The Holy Lord is really good to the people, and he has done his best not to disturb the people. But there are wars everywhere, and if you don't fight, you can't do it, and the saints can't help it.

This time, a mission was sent to Annam, which had just departed yesterday. Salute first and then soldier, it is best to negotiate, if you can't reach an agreement, then you still have to fight in the end.

Only by laying down Annam and recovering the old port can Western trade be restarted. These are interlocking, and no step can be missing. ”

Zhou Chen also echoed: "That's true, it's not easy for the saint to be sincere, and the day before yesterday, he allocated six million taels from the internal fund to the Baoyuan Bureau of the Ministry of Industry.

After the Ministry of Industry was melted and minted into silver coins, 2 million taels were allocated to Shandong, and 2 million taels were allocated to Zhejiang and Fujian for the purpose of building sailors and coastal defenses.

Another 2 million taels were allocated to Gansu for the operation of Gansu and the expansion of the territory.

It's the first time I've seen such a large amount of money spent to support the imperial court. ”

Xu Youzhen also praised: "And all the money earned from Western trade belongs to the imperial court." Once it is on the right track, the household department does not have to worry about finances at all.

I'm afraid that our income will rise sharply. ”

When everyone heard this, they all nodded their heads again and again. Everyone had to admit that the emperor was really sincere, and he was quietly cultivating in the mountains, but he handed over a lot of money to the imperial court.

In fact, the income of hundreds of officials has risen more than twice as much as that of the orthodox dynasty, and it is still rising.

At least the lives of all Qing officials have improved dramatically. It will take another three or five years for the Qing officials to live a more decent life even if they are not greedy or occupying.

At this time, Wang Yining, the newly appointed scholar of the Ministry of Rites and a scholar of Hanlin, asked: "Lin Cong, Ye Sheng, Li Kan and others were sent by the Holy Lord to envoy Annan and Korea.

Liu Ding put up the notebook and asked for a few more people to be the crown prince's attendants. He recommended Wan An, Liu Jue, and Liu Ji, what do you think? ”

When everyone heard this, they all frowned.

The three people recommended by Liu Dingzhi are all orthodox thirteen-year jinshi. This is too obvious, why don't you bring one or two Jingtai Chao Xinke Jinshi to pretend, even the saint has just promoted a Sanyang protégé Xiao Di.
