I am the carpenter king

Emperor Tianqi looked at Luo Sigong, put the memorial aside, and asked in a deep voice: "Luo Aiqing, do you have anything else to say?" This money has been spent so much.

I also have to build ships and build a navy, which probably costs more than this, and I have to find a way to make money.If it continues like this, I'm afraid everything will come to naught.

"Go back to the emperor, there is no more!" Luo Sigong saw the embarrassment on Emperor Tianqi's face, and he also understood in his heart that it was not easy for Emperor Tianqi, so he bowed respectfully.

Slowly nodded, Emperor Tianqi looked at Luo Sigong, and said: "Then Aiqing will go back! This trip to Liaodong, the journey is rough, Aiqing is also quite hard. Go back and have a good rest, and I will do my best in the future."

Luo Si bowed respectfully, took his leave, turned and left, and the hall fell into silence.

Sitting upright behind the table, Emperor Tianqi frowned tightly, with a trace of solemnity between his brows.Gently knocking on the table, meditating quietly.

Wang Chengen on the side naturally dared not speak. It was not the first time that Emperor Tianqi did this. Every time Emperor Tianqi was thinking about very important things.He waved his hand to signal the maids and eunuchs outside to be gentle, and there was only one Wang Chengen serving in the hall.

Sitting like this for an hour, Emperor Tianqi was so absorbed that he didn't feel anything, but Wang Chengen, who was standing on the side, was already sweating on his forehead.As an old eunuch, Wang Chengen's body couldn't take it anymore if he stood like this for an hour.

The sun was towards the west, and suddenly he felt a little hungry. Emperor Tianqi came back to his senses, looked up and saw that the sun was already towards the west.After glancing at Wang Chengen, Emperor Tianqi realized that something was wrong with the old eunuch.He hurriedly said: "Wang Chengen, go down and rest! It will be difficult for Chen Lin to take care of you recently. Wait for the imperial doctor to come in and take a look, take good care of your own body, I still want you to take care of me."

"Yes, Your Majesty! I'm going now, servant girl!" Wang Chengen was not polite, bowed and retreated after bowing.First, because he couldn't hold on anymore.The second reason is that Emperor Tianqi didn't like his false politeness either.

"Your Majesty, Lord Xiong Wencan, Minister of the Ministry of War, is here!" Chen Lin walked in with a happy face, knelt on the ground and said.

He nodded slowly, Xiong Wencan should indeed be here at this time, and the assessment of the champion of martial arts should also be over.I don't know who won the champion of martial arts, I hope it is not Wu Sangui, if it is this guy, how embarrassing is it for me.

"Xiong Wencan, Minister of the Ministry of Defense, see Your Majesty! Long live my emperor!" Kneeling down to Emperor Tianqi.Xiong Wencan worships three times and kowtows nine times, and is meticulous.

Looking at Xiong Wencan with a smile, Emperor Tianqi said in a brisk tone: "Xiong Aiqing, you are not too young, how can you do such a great gift? Could it be that you made some mistake? Do you want to be merciful outside the law?"

Xiong Tingbi was stunned for a moment, he hesitated and didn't know what to say, his face turned red for a while.

"Okay, I'm joking with Aiqing. I recognize Aiqing's thoughts and abilities, and you are not too young. In the future, such big gifts will not be needed!" As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Chen Lin, Emperor Tianqi He ordered: "Give me a seat!"

Getting up from the ground, Xiong Wencan's face was touched, and he bowed his body and said, "I am inexplicably grateful for the emperor's love and care!"

Seeing that Chen Lin moved a Jindun, Xiong Wencan was not polite.sat on it.This is a reward from the emperor, so you have to sit back and relax. If you push it back and forth, it will be counterproductive.

"Aiqing, how is it? The result of Wu Zhuangyuan has come out?" Although Emperor Tianqi had a lot of thoughts in his heart, he didn't show the slightest expression on his face.He looked at Xiong Wencan with a smile.There was a trace of expectation in his eyes.

"Back to the emperor, the result has come out! Although Cao Wenzhao has the best grades, he must be the champion of martial arts, Wu Sangui is the second place, and Zuo Liangyu is Tanhua. The Chuanlu is Wang Chang. As for the names of other Jinshi, all Here it is, please take a look at the emperor!" Xiong Wencan took out the things in his arms, raised his hands, and said respectfully.

After hearing Xiong Wencan's words, Emperor Tianqi breathed a sigh of relief. Wu Sangui won the second place, and the historical celebrity is really not a cover.However, Cao Wenzhao was able to overwhelm Wu Sangui, so Emperor Tianqi was naturally very excited.This person was much stronger than Wu Sangui in history, and now his ability is also stronger than Wu Sangui. Emperor Tianqi was naturally relieved.

Taking the list over, Emperor Tianqi quickly scanned it, but didn't see any familiar names on it.Putting the list aside, Emperor Tianqi smiled and said to Xiong Wencan: "Tomorrow we will arrange three people from Yijia to praise officials, and it will be three days. This is no different from the imperial examination. After three days, I will hold Qionglin in the palace. Banquet, let all these Wu Jinshi participate."

As Xiong Wencan listened, he felt terrified. Emperor Tianqi really spared no effort in promoting warriors.He can also guess how much, now the army is slack, and the frontier is restless.Emperor Apocalypse also hoped to inspire the morale of the army and the people, and also hoped that through such selection, he would add talents to the army of the Ming Dynasty and sweep away the military decline of the Ming Dynasty.

But Xiong Wencan knew in his heart that if he wanted to have a good army, he had to throw money into it.In the current situation of the Ming Dynasty, there is not enough money, and the army is just like that.Others can be said to be fine, but they can’t be done without money.

"Xiong Aiqing, how do you think these Jinshi should be distributed?" Emperor Tianqi asked another question, looking at Xiong Wencan with a smile on his face, with a bit of expectation in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, I have thought about this matter. Civilian Jinshi will go to various ministries to observe politics, and these Wu Jinshi will also be sent to the army. I decided that all the troops around the capital can be awarded. A military position is more suitable." Xiong Tingbi expressed his thoughts, and it can be seen that this is an idea that has been conceived for a long time.

Emperor Tianqi nodded in satisfaction, this is naturally the best, but he is also a little dissatisfied.Of the twelve guards in the capital, all of them are pro-military yamen, so there is no need to ask about their combat strength.I am afraid that there are only three major battalions in the army that can watch politics now, so it is very appropriate to put him with Sun Chuanting.

"Send them all to the three major battalions. I will ask the cabinet to write a report on this matter as soon as possible. Besides, this is the issue of these Wujin non-commissioned officers. I want to send some of them to Liaodong, where the reorganization of the king's army is underway. Master, it’s time to employ people. The other part I want to keep them in the three major camps, and some young people will go in as well.” Emperor Tianqi looked at Xiong Wencan and said with a smile.

Xiong Wencan would not say anything about this kind of thing, and there was nothing wrong with Emperor Tianqi's arrangement.These two are the unspoken rules of the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty. As the Minister of the Ministry of War, Xiong Wencan still has certain powers over the appointment and dismissal of generals.Not even Jin Yiwei could escape from this, let alone other troops.It would be dangerous if Xiong Wencan was interested in the appointment of these Wu Jinshi or interfered with Emperor Tianqi's decision.

Minister at this time, it's okay for you to write a letter to scold the emperor, the worst thing is to beat the imperial staff.The emperor will not kill people because of this, but if you are too interested in military power, it is very easy to be suspected.

"The emperor's arrangement is really great! I am so impressed!" Xiong Wencan patted a horse directly, but it was obviously not very clever.

Looking at Xiong Wencan with a smile, knowing that he was blushing, he smiled and said: "You! Look at this!" Emperor Tianqi handed Sun Chengzong's book about reorganizing the army to Wang Chengen, and asked him to pass it to Xiong Wencan.

Slightly taken aback, Xiong Wencan didn't know what Emperor Tianqi was going to do. When he unfolded the memorial, Xiong Wencan's eyebrows frowned immediately.The muscles on the face were twitching, and the lips were trembling.

"Your Majesty, I feel that this seems a bit difficult. Everything else is secondary. The main problem is the silver. Mr. Sun said that 700 million taels of silver is needed every year. This expenditure is really too big, and the national treasury can't bear it!

"The military salaries of the Liaodong army are all paid by Liaodong's tax bank. Those who are not enough will be paid from my internal treasury, and the money from the national treasury will still be kept!" Looking at Xiong Wencan, Emperor Tianqi said in a serious voice.

Not as happy as imagined, Xiong Wencan still had no smile on his face, but a bit of sadness on his face.No matter who pays this money, it is not a small amount, and the money in the emperor's internal treasury is not unlimited, there will always be a day when it will disappear!

However, Xiong Wencan also knew that this was not his responsibility. Although he was the Minister of the Ministry of War, he couldn't manage it.I hope Emperor Tianqi will not do stupid things, and don't move money that shouldn't be moved, otherwise things will be very troublesome.

"Your Majesty has no faults, and I have no objection to this matter! However, I feel that Master Sun will preside over the establishment of a new army in Liaodong, and it will be confirmed in the future. The emperor should send imperial envoys from the central government, and then replace Master Sun from Liaodong!" Xiong Wencan thought about these words for a long time, but this time he finally couldn't hold back, and looked at Emperor Tianqi's expression after speaking.

After all, Sun Chengzong's status is there, and everyone knows that Emperor Tianqi trusts Sun Chengzong. If Emperor Tianqi is angered because of this incident, it will not be worth the candle!

"Aiqing is speaking for the country. I understand it in my heart, but I also have ideas. Sun Aiqing's ability and loyalty are fine. Things in Liaodong are so difficult, and I don't want to trip Sun Aiqing anymore." Emperor Tianqi looked at Xiong Wencan , with a smile on his face, but his expression was full of confidence.

Giving a salute to Emperor Tianqi, Xiong Wencan said respectfully: "Your Majesty is wise!" He couldn't say anything else, all those words just now were said by Emperor Tianqi, which contained his trust in Sun Chengzong.

Emperor Tianqi didn't think there was anything worth discussing about this matter, and now he was thinking about one thing, which was the long-planned tour in micro-service. (To be continued..)
