Chapter 40: To shoot a man, shoot a horse first; to capture a thief, capture the king first!
  "That's right! Wouldn't it be better to save the money for repairing the inn?"

The person from the Ministry of War who just spoke was speechless, his face looked ugly, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

Xu Huaili stood up and said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid Mr. Cao has been living in Beijing for a long time and doesn't know how he left the official path!"

"There is one post station every thirty miles, but now some places in the north only have one post station one hundred miles away. If there is an emergency military situation, and there is no change of horses, which delays the military situation, then the door of your house will be torn down, Mr. Cao." It’s also unknown!”

"How dare you!" Mr. Cao, who was accused of tearing down his family, turned red with anger and yelled, "What do you mean? Is this how you raised your grandson, Mr. Xu?! He learned to be so arrogant!"

Xu Guogong Xu Huasong smiled indifferently, "It is not necessarily a bad thing for a young man to be young and arrogant. I think what he said is very reasonable. Is it possible that Mr. Cao doesn't know that there is a saying that is to be prepared for danger in times of peace?"

With the people from the Ministry of War having a backer, they naturally gained confidence, "Master Cao is old and it is understandable that he has inconvenient legs and feet, but how can you forget to be prepared for danger in times of peace?"

Mr. Cao was so angry that he had to endure the scholarly demeanor to avoid scolding him in public.

But the debates between the cabinet and the Ministry of War were endless.

For a moment, the hall was in a mess. Zhang Quanfu glanced at His Majesty's expression, frowned a little, and immediately cleared his throat and said loudly, "Quiet!"

Suddenly, the quarrel stopped.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony was as quiet as a chicken, and the ministers all looked at each other in astonishment.

After all, His Majesty didn't seem to say a word just now.

Pei Yuning twirled the beaded string on his wrist, and after a long time, he asked quietly, "If you like to argue, you can wait until next court to argue. There is no need to worry. Today we are discussing the disaster relief in Zhuzhou. If there are no other objections, we will continue to discuss the issue of disaster relief money." How to solve."

This matter was a hot potato, and for a while no one took up the matter.

"Your Majesty, I believe that Zhuzhou's disaster relief needs taels of silver, but the military expenditure cannot be reduced. Why not take the lead in starting disaster relief donation activities at major people's houses in Beijing, and then lobby the major business gangs to collect donations from merchants. The silver taels raised will be used first. It will be used by the people, and donations for the river embankments will be launched in other states."

Wang Shulin is a person who can talk about anything as long as he doesn't take out money. He suggested that it would be best to drag everyone into the water.

You are a Taoist who is a dead Taoist, but you are not a Taoist who is a poor Taoist!

The people below all sneered. Wang Shangshu's abacus beads were beating so loudly that they could be heard from three miles away.

But I have to say that this is indeed the best way to collect money in a short period of time. Besides, you can’t be forced to donate more or less, right?

In order to show selflessness, he had to echo, "Yes, this proposal is feasible."

"You can consider it."

"I second the proposal!"

“In that case, who wants to raise money?”

Pei Yuning looked down at the group of people who bowed their heads in silence and said, "Shilang Xiao."

"Chen is here!"

"You originally proposed this matter, so you will be responsible for raising funds. I will raise five hundred thousand taels for you in ten days. Do you have any objections?"

Xiao Huanshan felt bitter in his heart and said seriously, "I obey your order!"

"Xu Huaili!"

"Chen is here!"

"I designate you as the General of Zhenbei. You will assist Xiao Shilang in raising funds and escort the disaster relief funds to Zhuzhou safely!"

"I obey the decree!" Xu Huaili knelt down to thank him.

Xiao Qu was confused, why did his son still accept such a thankless job?

Xiao Huanjun was also worried about his second brother. Xu Huasong, the Duke of the town, frowned. What is your Majesty’s plan?
  *

"Your Majesty asked my father to go to various houses to raise funds?" Xiao Tingyun was surprised and asked hurriedly.

Xiao Huanshan also sighed, "The holy will cannot be violated?"

Xiao Qu tugged his beard and pursed his lips, "Your father is unlucky. Who told him to talk too much? If you insist on opening that mouth, then! This will play into someone else's favour."

Xiao Huanshan felt aggrieved, but he couldn't say it, and he couldn't tell his father that this was His Majesty's conspiracy!

Ten days! Five hundred thousand taels!
  "Dad, please don't add fuel to the fire. My second brother is already having a hard time!"

Xiao Huanjun thought that he wanted to remove all the people's trousers, especially those old fried dough sticks who were all slick and smooth, so they knew how to cry for poverty in front of His Majesty.

Xiao Heming heard the news and hurried to the study. He was no longer shocked to see his sister there.

I was only worried about my father, "I heard about this after I got off work today. Does my father have a way to solve it?"

Xiao Huanshan's elegant face became more serious, "Your Majesty asked General Xu to assist. It must be a combination of civil and military measures. We just have to see how many people can take this trick."

"It doesn't matter what your Majesty thinks. What matters is who father attacks first." Xiao Tingyun suddenly said.

Xiao Huanshan was a little curious when he heard what his daughter said, "Then who does Ayun think it is better for a father to take action first?"

Xiao Tingyun said, "It is said that when you shoot a man, you shoot the horse first, and when you catch a thief, you catch the king first. Naturally, it is time to drag down those who have the heart of "goodness is as good as water"."

Except for Xiao Qu, who was a little confused, everyone present understood immediately.

Especially Xiao Huanshan, smiled and said, "Ayun explain."

"Your Majesty gave the Taifu a personal calligraphy treasure. I heard that the Taifu used it as a guide at the banquet that day and invited all the gentlemen to write poems and commentaries. The gentlemen also highly praised this matter and used it as an encouragement to the Taifu. After all, His Majesty’s personal gift is not a simple and ordinary thing.”

"Not bad." Xiao Huanshan nodded in agreement.

"The best good is like water. Water benefits all things without fighting. It is disliked by everyone, so it is close to the Tao. I think your majesty is using this to help my father!"

Xiao Tingyun thought of what happened in Taifu's Mansion before, and combined with what His Majesty Taihe Palace said today, he felt that it was very meaningful.

Xiao Huanshan smiled and said nothing.

(Restaurant on the second day)

"Have you heard about the incident at Mrs. Zhang's house?" A middle-aged man with a short face and a thin figure was discussing quietly with a fat white man sitting at the same table.

Fatty Bai said disdainfully, "I've heard about it a long time ago, so don't make such a fuss."

"Of course I'm not surprised by this. I heard it from my cousin's cousin's brother-in-law's brother-in-law's cousin. At the court this morning, Lord Zuodu Censor Fanghe impeached Taifu Zhang because of Taifu Zhang. For that matter at home, I said I would punish Master Zhang!"

"Ah!? Real or fake?" someone asked in surprise.

Fatty Bai touched his chin, "This matter to Master Zhang is really an unforeseen disaster. Didn't His Majesty also give Master Zhang a calligraphy treasure? The whole capital knew about it, and Master Zhang was very happy at that time! It was only a day before he was impeached Mr. Zhang?"

Thin Monkey said mysteriously, "Master Fang said that he is not worthy of the calligraphy gift given by His Majesty! As a Tutor, he can't even set an example!"

Master Fang: ...(Is that what I said??)

Fatty Bai was in disbelief, "Master Fang is really powerful. Do you dare to scold Taifu as unworthy in front of so many ministers?"

"Ahem...that's not the case..." Skinny Monkey smiled awkwardly, and then said seriously, "The Tutor is going to be impeached anyway!"

　Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh! ! ! ! !

　　Want to go crazy!
