Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 51 Whose Cake Moved?

When Liu Hongjian woke up the next day, the sun was already shining, and his little wife was no longer around him. After some washing, he found Sun Xiuxiu in the garden in the backyard.

"Husband, come and see, the seeds have germinated!" Sun Xiuxiu squatted beside the garden, pointing at the sprouts in front of her and said excitedly.

Liu Hongjian took a closer look, and in the land that had just been watered, a string of young shoots broke through the soil. The delicate shoots broke through the soil, which made people sigh the power of life.

"Yes, it's sprouted. After a while, our small garden will become lush and lush. I'll ask the servants to build a shelf in the yard and plant a few more vines.

When you give birth to a bunch of little dolls for your husband in the future, we can play with the dolls under this vine to enjoy the shade! "

The current Daming is not like this immature Ya'er, who has just washed away the rotten people, there are wild beasts staring at him outside, and there are bandits inside who are causing trouble. He must protect this little Ya'er, so that Daming has time to regroup the army, Conquest is illegal.

"Husband, you are not serious again!" Sun Xiuxiu gave Liu Hongjian a white look, and Xiaolan behind her also burst out laughing.

Since coming to Liu's house, Xiaolan really felt that the heavens had pity on her. The master's son, Xiuxiu Xiuxiu, was approachable. Although the master was a little unruly, he never beat down people for no reason, and the Liu family didn't have too many rules.

Except for the big stick that always came to harass me shamelessly, Xiaolan really felt that this was her home. Then again, did the big stick take the wrong medicine these two days? come to me?Xiaolan secretly said with a displeased face.

After dinner, Liu Hongjian went to the palace. Based on his knowledge of Chongzhen, he went straight to Qianqing Palace, Chongzhen's bedroom. Sure enough, Chongzhen, who had passed the imperial court, was still reviewing memorials in Qianqing Palace.

Along the way, Liu Hongjian kept thinking, how could he reject Emperor Chongzhen's offer of recruiting a son-in-law? If he refused directly, wouldn't it be too disrespectful to Chongzhen?

Are you saying you are afraid of your wife?Ke Xiuxiu has already promised the Queen!Say you have an internal disease?Well, this can be postponed for a while. If you can have a child with your little wife later, it won't be the same as revealing.

At that time, it will be troublesome if Chongzhen is punished for the crime of bullying the emperor!He didn't think about how to reject the serious Emperor Chongzhen in front of him until he arrived at Qianqing Palace.

"Your Majesty, I have something to announce! I feel... I feel that I am not worthy of Your Highness the Princess! Yesterday, my wife hastily agreed to the empress, and I feel that it is very inappropriate! I beg the emperor to take back my order, and I will do my best." , assist the emperor to rejuvenate Daming!"

As the saying goes, if you don't have anything to show courtesy, you can either rape or steal. What is the significance of this sudden move by the Emperor Chongzhen and the Empress?Is it because I am afraid that I will leave Daming and run away?Well, it's possible, if it wasn't for him, the capital would probably be occupied by wild boar skins now!
After speaking, Liu Hongjian knelt on the ground and lowered his head anxiously, looking at his nose and heart, waiting for the roar of Emperor Chongzhen.

Chongzhen was stunned for a moment, his brows were slightly frowned, and the pen in his hand unconsciously fell on the case.

This damn kid really didn't give me any face!Fortunately, I even made plans to quarrel with the ministers over this matter. Forget it, if you don't want to marry, I still don't want to marry!It's all the Queen's bad idea!

Chongzhen secretly concealed the unhappiness in his heart, and then he frowned and thought about it.

"Why did I ever say that I want to marry my daughter to you? What nonsense are you talking about?" Emperor Chongzhen pretended to be surprised and said angrily.

"Huh? Nani?" Is this still the emperor he knew?
"Uh, I drank wine last night, maybe your humble minister remembered it wrong! Please forgive me!" Liu Hongjian could only say no with a smile on his face, Ma De, what kind of world is going on, the emperor has started to play rascals, really R dog.

"Did I ask you to get up?" Seeing that Liu Hongjian wanted to get up just after paying the compensation, Chongzhen couldn't help saying with a straight face.

"Forehead……"

"Come on, what are you looking for?" Seeing Liu Hongjian's devastated face, Chongzhen let go of the unhappiness just now.

"Your Majesty, didn't I propose to the Emperor to levy a commercial tax before? After thinking about it for the past few days, I think it's not the right time!" Kneeling on the cold floor, Liu Hongjian felt that his knees were extremely uncomfortable.

So Liu Hongjian didn't look at Chongzhen, and squatted back while talking, kneeling instead of sitting.

"Weichen thinks that at least the new army has to be trained before it has the soil to punish those profiteers."

He didn't know much about the Beijing camp before, so he made this foolish move hastily. Without soldiers, how dare you touch those wealthy merchants?Which wealthy businessman has no one in Beijing?Liu Hongjian thought of those so-called dukes and uncles in the governor's mansion who had retired with the country.

Now, it is estimated that the one who will rest with him is the white money in the family!

Fortunately, during this period of time, I was busy with the gang of old bastards of the Donglin Party, so I didn't bother to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to discuss this matter. After a little thought, Chongzhen agreed to discuss this matter later.

"Your Majesty, I have one more thing to do. The Beijing Camp is the elite of the National Guard, but now the Beijing Camp has encountered many wars and plagues, and the number of soldiers is less than [-]. Forgive me bluntly, [-] soldiers are not enough!"

Taking advantage of Chongzhen listening to him seriously, Liu Hongjian quietly got up and moved a stool from the side to sit down, and glanced at Chongzhen, um, he didn't seem angry!
The city of Beijing is close to Mongolia and Jurchen. Since Cheng Zu moved the capital to Beijing, in order to defend the capital, the Beijing camp had as many as 72 guards at its peak, with a total of 30 people.

Zhu Di, the overlord of a generation, relied on this army to conquer Mongolia five times, as if entering a land without people, he beat the descendants of Genghis Khan to the ground, and fled after hearing the news.

"Oh, it's not that I don't want to recruit more soldiers. The treasury has money now, and I also want to train more soldiers! But...it's not easy to recruit soldiers!"

Of course Chongzhen knew the current situation of military households and the common people's aversion to joining the army. Originally, conscription of [-] troops was already a difficult task.

After hearing this, it was Liu Hongjian's turn to be surprised again. Since you know soldiers are hard to recruit, you should also know why soldiers are hard to recruit!If there is a problem, go to solve the problem. Sigh, there is a wool for it?
After thinking about it again, Liu Hongjian understood that the military household system has been established by Comrade Zhu Chongba, the founder of the Ming Dynasty since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and it is an ancestral system.

And the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, who were deeply influenced by traditional feudal concepts, probably never thought of abolishing the military household system, which has become a burden, otherwise it would be impossible to maintain this system for more than 270 years.

No, even if the emperor can't think of it, there should be someone who understands it!Let me think about it, whose cake will be touched by the abolition of military households?
When the military households were in their heyday, there were millions of households, and these people planted at least tens of millions of acres of arable land, but once the military households were abolished, these lands would inevitably be liquidated again.

Then... the matter is clear, Xun Qi, these damn Xun Xun again!

These Ming moths!Vampire bat!
