Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 326

Lin Xiangyu was covered with a brocade quilt, nestled in the corner of the bed, and when she heard what Zhu Qiyu said, she asked quite dissatisfied: "Isn't that Uncle Hu Dazong already dispatched to Nanjing?

Why do these people in the Ministry of Rites continue to step forward, and dare to make your husband kneel down to the Supreme Emperor? "

Zhu Qiyu smiled wryly and said: "Xiao'er wrongly blamed them, this matter really has nothing to do with the officials of the Ministry of Rites. This is called a political show, and according to the unwritten rules, it can only be performed like this at that time.

I had to meet him outside the Xizhi Gate, and when the Supreme Emperor got off his chariot, I had to rush over, kneel on the ground and hug the Supreme Emperor's thigh, weeping bitterly.

Then the Supreme Emperor also knelt down and wept bitterly, and we both hugged each other and wept, telling each other our brotherly love and concern.

After I finished crying, the ministers came to cry.

After crying, I still have to hold the jade seal and kneel down to ask the Supreme Emperor to reset.

Then the Supreme Emperor refused to accept his resignation, and issued an edict of guilt in public, announcing the formal abdication to the whole world, and abdicated as the respectful emperor.

Finally, go to the Beijing Observatory and complete the abdication process.

From then on, I, the current emperor, will be the supreme, and the emperor will be the second.

After the names are decided, the next two years will be a tug of war. "

When Lin Xiangyu heard this, she could only shake her head and smile wryly: "Men are even more hypocritical than women."

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "You asked the needlework bureau to measure me, and then I could do it. Why do you have to measure it yourself?"

Lin Xiangyu asked curiously: "Aren't you embarrassed to ask the eunuch to measure your husband? Can we be happy to ask the maid to measure your husband?
After having in-depth exchanges with my husband, our sisters' mentality has changed.

Now we sisters don’t want newcomers to come in and share men with us, husband, what do you think we should do? "

After measuring the size, Zhu Qiyu lay back on the bed, and replied indifferently: "If you don't want to, don't think about it, I am a Taoist, and I don't pursue quantity so much.

Have we finished collecting the land rent this year?How much money is there in the treasury? Will this year pass in peace? "

Hearing this, Lin Xiangyu plunged into Zhu Qiyu's arms, and An Ansheng lay down.

Zhu Qiyu shook his head helplessly, the concubines who are pregnant now are all very expensive, and they don't need to worry about any mundane affairs, so they can only look at Qianxue.

Qianxue spread her hands helplessly: "Receive the land rent? What kind of land rent? Our farmland has exempted all the tenants from the land rent for three years.

There are still some solid-minded tenants who know how to be grateful, so they spontaneously sent us some rice and miscellaneous grains. Otherwise, with my husband's field skills, the crops produced in the field would not be enough for the few of us to eat. "

Zhu Qiyu was a little surprised, he had never cared about these properties of the family: "The three-year land rent, if you say it will be waived? We have little food and drink, and the key point is that there is no harvest. How can we support our family's [-] guards?"

Qian Xue persuaded with a smile: "Husband, you have to think this way, our family's fields have all been replaced to the west of Beijing, surrounding the Xinqi Palace.

And some forces who are dissatisfied with us will definitely spy on the Qi Palace from time to time to see if there are any loopholes that can allow them to take the opportunity to attack and cause harm to us.

Therefore, we must extend favors to these tenant farmers and share their interests.Only in this way can they truly support their husband, and if there are Xiaoxiao people who come to plot evil, they can also serve as our ubiquitous eyeliners, monitoring the movements around the Qi Palace for us.

We think so, what do you say husband? "

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "That's right, that's right, when the tenants find it hard to find a gentle and kind master like us with a lantern, they will spontaneously support us."

Encouraged by Qianxue, she continued to add: "My family told them, just farm with peace of mind. Every year, we will pay for the crops; in disaster years, not only will the land rent be reduced or exempted, but we will also provide money and grain for disaster relief.

In short, when planting our land, keep your heart in your stomach.As long as you work hard, you will have a good life. "

Zhu Qiyu nodded again and again: "Okay, let's do it this way. But what about the money in our warehouse?"

Qianxue shook her head: "Gold is less than 10 taels, and silver is less than 50 taels. Husband, we have tried our best, but we have built many palaces, and there are three guards' salaries. It is really a waste of money, and we can't stop it." .

Fortunately, most of the projects in various places have been completed, and from next year, all you need to worry about is the military pay. "

"Okay, I'll just wait until tomorrow when I convene a court meeting and confiscate another batch of houses. There are still many people in Wang Zhenyu's party, and I have kept them until today.

Let's supplement two or three million taels by ransacking the house, and next year's mission fees will be settled again.

Our family does not need to build a palace in the future, and the cost will not be as much as this year.

In a few years, I will cleanse the whole family of the Supreme Emperor, as well as all the eunuchs and maids in the Forbidden City, and the money saved will be used to subsidize the state guards.

The Yumajian has a lot of pastures, and is in charge of the operation of Huangzhuang and Huangdian. If there is an opportunity to expand the scale for him, it will be enough to support Tiancewei.

I built a new city in Guangning, carried out mutual trade with the Mongolian Tatars, and used the proceeds to support Duoyanwei.

This kind of fiddle can not only support the three guards of the army, but also don't have to rob the court for money.

At the same time, we can also close the door, guard the property of Prince Qi's Mansion, and live a comfortable life. "

Qianxue and the others nodded repeatedly when they heard it, it turned out that my husband was quite clear about the calculations.As soon as we increase income and reduce expenditure, we don't have to worry about money anymore.

Qianxue smiled and said: "If we raid the house a few more times, and the property of our Prince Qi Mansion continues to expand, then we can earn a huge amount of two to three million taels every year.

Subtracting the expenses of supporting the three guards, we can have more than 100 million taels left each year, which is enough to spend. "

The more the two talked, the happier they became. Zhu Qiyu wanted to analyze the family background of Prince Qi's mansion in detail. At this time, the maid came in with a stack of memorial books and military newspapers.

Zhu Qiyu was a little curious, why so many urgent reports are really rare.

The little girl reported: "Your Majesty, Mr. He has said it, please read it immediately."

Zhu Qiyu leaned back on the bed, and said to Qianxue: "Read it."

Qianxue took the military newspaper, opened the first one, read it carefully, and then replied: "Nanjing Military Daily, Zhang Fu, the commander-in-chief, and Zhang Fu, the deputy commander-in-chief, led the army in ambush during the Pingmiao chaos. seriously injured.

After class, the two recuperated in Nanjing for many days, their injuries worsened, and they passed away in early September.

In addition, Yang Shan, Jin Ying, Xing'an, Cao Jixiang and others have set off to return to Beijing after taking the army to Nanjing to settle properly.

Yu Qian also asked to send a general with combat experience in Luchuan to Nanjing to preside over the formation of a mountain camp. "

Zhu Qiyu was quite surprised when he heard the words, the two brothers of the Zhang family died like this?That really solved a big problem.

In the future, the British government will be under the leadership of Zhang Zhong, and will no longer be under the control of his two uncles.

As for the return of Yang Shan, Jin Ying, Xing'an, Cao Jixiang and others to Beijing, it was just right.The Taishanghuang didn't have a few capable cronies, how could he get to the step of rebellion.

As for Yu Qian's request, it is reasonable.If you want to form an army suitable for mountain warfare, it is appropriate to find a general with Luchuan combat experience to lead.
