Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 811 Coming one after another
Bad things are always connected. The Japanese invasion in Zhejiang, the uprising in Fujian, and the miners' uprising in Jiangxi all arrived in Beijing on the same day and spread at the fastest speed, causing an uproar in the government and the public.

Compared with the uprisings in Jiangxi and Fujian, the most eye-catching one is the Japanese invasion in Zhejiang. For the Ming Dynasty, the harm caused by the Japanese invasion is even greater! !
"This is a time of trouble. There is a Japanese invasion in Zhejiang right now. This has a huge impact on the central government!"

Household Department.

The Shangshu is on duty.

Nan Juyi, the left assistant minister, frowned and said in a low voice: "The suppression of rebellions in Liaodong and Sichuan has ended one after another. The only one left is Guizhou. As for Korea, the Lee family provides money and food. The national treasury has not allocated too much food and money for this purpose. Most of it is solved directly by the internal treasury."

"But the wars in these places have had such a huge impact that an increase in food prices is inevitable. I thought the situation would get better once the rebellion in Guizhou was suppressed."

"But there has been another problem in the southeast. I'm afraid it won't be long before the canal transportation is affected. If the South Grand Canal dares to stop operating, then..."

When it came to this, Nan Juyi couldn't go on any further.

"Your Majesty has summoned the ministers of the Military Affairs Council to meet with you."

Right Vice Minister Li Zongyan frowned and said, "People from the Ministry of War have also gone there. The chaos in Zhejiang, Jiangxi, and Fujian this time will have a significant impact."

"Let's not talk about that now."

Bi Ziyan, who was sitting in the main seat, interrupted and said, "I asked you to come here to discuss the Ministry of Revenue and the National Treasury. With such a big mistake, you know better than anyone what kind of situation we will face next."

"The commercial tax investigation in Shandong and Henan must be done as soon as possible, and the investigation of temple property in Northern Zhili must also be finalized as soon as possible. The more we are in a situation like this, the more we must remain calm!!"

"My Lord, do you really want to conduct an inventory of the temple properties in Northern Zhili at this time?" After hearing this, Nan Juyi felt worried and looked at Bi Ziyan.

"If there had not been unrest in Jiangxi, Fujian and Zhejiang, the investigation would have been done. If there had been any unrest, the court would have been able to deal with it calmly. But the situation is different now."

"If any disturbance occurs in Northern Zhili while the Ministry of Revenue is checking the temple property, the consequences will be disastrous if the court does not resolve it quickly!"

The inventory of temple properties in northern Zhili was a matter that was discussed repeatedly in the Ministry of Revenue and was basically recognized and agreed to. However, this was based on the premise that there was no trouble in Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian and other places. Similarly, no one expected that there would be trouble in these three places.

"What? Are you scared?"

Bi Ziyan raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Nan Juyi and said, "Then according to you, just because of the chaos in Zhejiang, Jiangxi and Fujian, the Ministry of Revenue should just close down?"

"That's not what I meant."

Nan Juyi said: "Your Excellency is not unaware of the complicated situation of Buddhist temples in Northern Zhili, especially those in the capital area. Many of them are involved with those in the capital."

"Of course I know the urgency of the investigation of temple property, but there is no need to rush now. We should at least wait until there is a clue on how to solve the Japanese rebellion in Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian and other places before my Ministry of Revenue takes action."

"Seconded!"

Li Zongyan followed closely and said: "No matter what, resolving the Japanese rebellion in Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian and other places is the top priority. No matter how important other things are, they should be carried out when the situation becomes clearer. Stabilizing the situation is the key."

Boom! !
At this moment, accompanied by a sudden flash of lightning, deafening thunder sounded from the sky. The sky suddenly became gloomy and heavy rain poured down.

Hearing the noise, Nan Juyi and Li Zongyan looked outside the hall and saw the pouring rain. They felt complicated. The current Ming Dynasty was very similar to this scene.

The wind and rain are blowing!!

"Mr. Bi!!"

"Mr. Bi!!"

Just as the two were lost in thought, a voice was heard outside the hall, causing Bi Ziyan and the others to stand up. They saw Liu Ruoyu coming in the rain, not caring about the oil-paper umbrella in his hand, and rushed into the hall.

The hem of the bright red dragon robe was soaked.

"Eunuch Liu, why are you here?" Bi Ziyan frowned, stood up, lifted his robe and walked towards Liu Ruoyu.

"The Emperor summons you."

Liu Ruoyu was a little out of breath and looked at Bi Ziyan.

"how?"

Bi Ziyan raised his eyebrows slightly, "But have the rules for suppressing the Japanese rebellion in Zhejiang and the rebellion in Jiangxi and Fujian been set?"

"No, no."

Liu Ruoyu shook his head and said, "Henan has an urgent delivery of 400 miles. The Yellow River dike in Xuzhou and other places is in danger. Zuo Guangdou requested to allocate money to repair the dike. There is also an urgent delivery of Qi Jin, the Bo of Pinglu. The canal workers and boatmen in many sections of the South Grand Canal have rioted..."

Boom! !
Thunder roared outside the hall again, and the atmosphere inside the hall was depressing.

Bi Ziyan, Nan Juyi and Li Zongyan all had complicated expressions. They never expected that after the unrest in Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian and other places, the most unexpected thing would still happen.

There might be problems with the South Canal, they thought.

But how could the Yellow River do that?

As early as the end of May, Zuo Guangdou and his colleagues reported to the court, stating that everything was under control, and even strengthened patrols in various places.

Why is there a sudden danger?

"Mr. Bi, Mr. Bi."

Seeing Bi Ziyan didn't move, Liu Ruoyu stepped forward and urged: "Let's go to Yuxi Palace quickly, don't let the emperor wait too long."

"Go, go now."

Bi Ziyan then came to his senses and hurriedly said to Liu Ruoyu.

The control of the Yellow River and the suspension of the South Grand Canal are all major events, not to mention the current situation where they have been urgently reported to Beijing one after another. If they are not handled properly, the consequences will be disastrous.

"The national treasury may be difficult to maintain."

Looking at Bi Ziyan's departing figure, Nan Juyi showed a worried look on his face. "With so many things happening, it would cost a lot of money just to allocate silver to Huang He."

"The most difficult problem is that the South Canal has stopped operating."

Li Zongyan frowned and said, "If this can't be resolved quickly, once it spreads upwards and downwards, I'm afraid the commotion will be even bigger and the impact on the local area will be even greater."

"It seems that we must do something about the temple property."

Nan Juyi said with a resolute look in his eyes: "No matter what, the national treasury cannot be without money and food. The more this situation is, the more the national treasury must be filled. If there is any trouble, we will not be in a passive position."

"But what if there is chaos in Northern Zhili?"

Li Zongyan looked at Nan Juyi in surprise. He was the one who initially raised objections to this matter, but now he was determined to do it. This made Li Zongyan a little confused.

"With the Beijing Camp and the Emperor's personal troops here, even if there is trouble, there is a way to resolve it."

Nan Juyi said calmly: "I plan to take over this matter myself. No matter what, we cannot let the court be passive. Some people are really too much. They dare to do these things for their own selfish interests. Do they really think that no one in the court can see what they are doing?!"
