At the end of the Ming Dynasty, I freely traveled through Yangshen

Chapter 66 Yunyu Gang

"Your Majesty, the court has no money, but in this matter, we can actually look at the financial resources of the honorable noble."

Fang Yuegong, a bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion who was also in charge of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War, said, "I heard that the father-in-law of Zhou Dynasty's family has a lot of assets in Suzhou. I think that the father-in-law of Zhou will not be stingy and will be responsible for this national crisis." Give it to each other."

Fang Yuegong, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, was in his forties and had been an official for more than 20 years. He had a clean mind, so he was still trusted by Emperor Chongzhen. Emperor Chongzhen still believed what he said.

Dongge University Scholar Qiu Yu also nodded and said, "Yes, the civil servants in the capital don't have much money. Even if many officials in the capital want to make money, in front of the emperor, the mirror is high, and any corrupt officials will definitely be punished. The people in Jinyiwei know, but Xungui is different, some Xungui's family property is very rich."

"There are so many nobles in Beijing. If your Majesty gives an order, they will all contribute such a small amount of money. Even if a family has a few hundred taels, a thousand taels, or four to five million taels, they should still be able to collect it. The nobles all retire with the country. , should not refuse.”

Dongge University scholar Qiu Yu is a fellow villager of Wenyuan Pavilion University scholar Fang Yuegong, and they are both from Xiangyang Prefecture. This one is at odds with Li Zicheng!His father Qiu Minzhong died for scolding a thief when Li Zicheng conquered Xiangyang. His son Qiu Zhitao contacted Sun Chuanting after he pretended to surrender to Li Zicheng and wanted to play Infernal Affairs in person. As a result, the matter was exposed and Li Zicheng killed him.

Therefore, Dongge University Scholar Kang Chuang was very determined and strongly supported Emperor Chongzhen's plan to dispatch Wu Sangui and Guan Ning's army to Beijing this time.

It is true that these ministers of mine are not willing to take sole responsibility for the southward migration, but they can still share some of my worries. Although they cannot fill the hole in terms of large finances, they can still be of some use at the moment.

Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian said: I originally thought that these people were ministers of subjugation, but now it seems that I have misunderstood them.

Then Emperor Chongzhen looked at Dongge Bachelor Fan Jingwen. Fan Jingwen was an old man in his 60s with gray hair and beard. He was very thin and wobbled a little when he stood up.

"Then Bachelor Fan, how do you think I am going to raise the remaining five or six million taels of silver?"

Hearing Emperor Chongzhen ask himself, Fan Jingwen nodded: "Your Majesty, why not do it according to Qiu Xueshi's method and let the nobles in the capital donate money to raise military expenses. After all, the nobles retire with the country, which means they contribute money to defend the home together. The country, as a minister, should first let the head of the noble family, the father-in-law of the country, take the lead in collecting donations."

Yes, that's a good idea!

Emperor Chongzhen's eyes lit up. After all, the father-in-law was his father-in-law. This national crisis was at the forefront. Even if there were rumors that his father-in-law was stingy, the price would not be less than 1 taels, right?As long as Zhou's father-in-law takes the lead in raising donations, thousands of distinguished families in Beijing can even raise more than one million taels if they work together.

"well!"

Emperor Chongzhen nodded with satisfaction, "Then let's do it. Li Jiantai and Li Xueshi will bring this matter up at the court meeting tomorrow. The donation is forced because of the corruption of national affairs. I think all the nobles will donate generously..."

"My lord..."

At this time, Gao Yushun, the eunuch in charge of the ceremonial eunuch, and Wang Zhixin, the eunuch in charge of the eunuch Bingbi, the ceremonial eunuch, came over. Among them, Gao Yushun, the eunuch in charge of the rites, said, "Wang Cheng'en is here."

"All you great bachelors, please go back."

Emperor Chongzhen got a satisfactory answer, and at this moment he also waved his hand, making all the scholars retreat.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Several bachelors also stood up and saluted. Just a few steps out of the gate of Dongnuang Pavilion, a eunuch wearing a red python robe came towards them in a hurry, and almost ran into Wei Zaode, the chief minister of the cabinet.When Wei Zaode, the chief minister of the cabinet, saw that he was the eunuch Bingbi, the eunuch who was responsible for the military affairs inside and outside the capital, and the admiral of the nine gates, and Wang Chengen, the admiral of the East Factory, he secretly cursed at bad luck, turned around and left.

"Wang Banban, come forward and speak." Emperor Chongzhen waved at Dongnuan Pavilion and asked Wang Chengen to come up.

"By the way, what do you think about Brother Chun's assassination?"

"Rumors, they are all rumors, these are all false."

Wang Chengen went up and bowed to Emperor Chongzhen. He first rejected Zhu Cixiang's trouble, and then said with a slightly surprised voice: "Your Majesty, I have good news here. Now there is someone at Huangqiang North Street. Thousands of people are queuing up, all volunteers who have come to join the army for reimbursement."

"Furthermore, Wu Xiang's servants have also been incorporated into the city defense army. The old slave plans to use his people to form the entire army. I think with the experience of the Wu family's servants in the battle, there should be a way for the volunteers to truly form an army."

Emperor Chongzhen could hardly believe his ears when he heard this, and looked at Wang Chengen with some confusion, "Wang Banban, are you serious about this?"

"Take it seriously, take it seriously, and don't do anything fake."

Wang Chengen affirmed, "But this army still needs to be trained. How it performs depends on Admiral Wu Xiangwu."

"Okay, okay, okay, I saw the right person. You, Wang Chengen, can still handle things."

Emperor Chongzhen exhaled and was in a good mood, "Good news, all good news. It seems that the people in the capital are all yearning for the Ming Dynasty. I, the Ming Dynasty, should be saved!"

It's so happy, it's so happy. Today, the cabinet bachelor gave him a way to solve the remaining 50 taels of fundraising. Wang Chengen also brought a major breakthrough in Beijing's urban defense deployment. It was a double happiness.

However, what Emperor Chongzhen didn't notice was that when Wang Chengen said these words before, he didn't dare to look at him at all, and he was somewhat prejudicial about what he meant.

And history also made a joke to Emperor Chongzhen. If there were no accidents, tomorrow's donation from nobles would be ineffective because of Zhou Guozhang's stinginess.

……

"Boss, Boss Fish and Dragon, we found a few people in the ruins. These people look very suspicious."

Outside a sealed room, a man wearing Izumo country-style clothes hurriedly ran here. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted, "One of the people is the person you were looking for earlier, and he is with Ebi Liu That one, and now Hai Laoliu is also with them."

This person is a member of the Yunyu Kingdom who is responsible for monitoring Ebi Laoliu and others. The previous hurricane incident caused the Yunyu Gang to send some people to search and rescue the ruins. However, it is the fishing season now, and in the residential area Most of them are widows and lonely. For these people, the attitude of the entire Izumo country is very obvious, that is, they can be saved if they can be saved, and they will be resigned to their fate if they cannot be saved.

brush!
After the Yunyu Gang finished speaking, the airtight door opened directly. Originally, the lights in the door were a little dim, but after the door opened, countless lights were lit up and flickered, and here was The whole picture was seen.

　Night shift, come on, now I have a question. Do you think the protagonist will move south after he has 5000 men and conquered Izumo country?What do you think?Perhaps, I think we still need to move south, but in a different way, it depends on the specific situation.
