Spring Girl's Notes

Chapter 243 Perfect

Since the emperor came to the throne, he has reduced or exempted taxes twice.

The first time was the first year of enthronement, the Chief Secretary south of the Yangtze River was exempt from taxation; in the year before last, it was the turn of the Chief Secretary north of the Yangtze River.

Such an exemption, the people are naturally grateful.

But the treasury is not so full.

When troops were sent out last year, Hubei and Hunan raised taxes once...

Now that there is a war again, it is natural that taxes need to be increased.As for the counties in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other places, due to the tax reduction in the north of the Yangtze River last year, the taxation has been a bit heavier.

Now wars levy taxes, and the taxes are even heavier. Isn't this forcing the people to have nowhere to go?

Had I known this earlier, I shouldn't have been exempt from taxation.

Tax exemption is praised by everyone, but once it gets worse, public dissatisfaction will immediately boil over, and even cause turmoil.

Annan Guoping's rebellious army and the use of troops in the Northwest almost emptied the surplus of the treasury last year...

Nowadays, it is impossible to search for the common people, otherwise the internal affairs will be unstable.

Do you want the fief princes to borrow money and food?

The key is, whether you can borrow it or not...

The reason why the emperor was so furious was because of these things, apart from the incompetence of An Nanguo's army to suppress the rebellion.

Now, Zhu Zhongjun took the initiative to dedicate his guards to the imperial court, and used Luzhou's treasury for these years as food and grass, which set an example for the kings of other fiefdoms.

King Luyang is so generous, do other princes dare not borrow money and soldiers?

In this way, not only will the power of the vassal prince be eliminated, but the country will not be in turmoil. How can the emperor be unhappy?

In fact, he has been playing with Zhu Zhongjun and Nanchang Wang Zhonglin for the past two days.

He just didn't expect that Gu Yantao would think of going with him.He also took the initiative to persuade Zhu Zhongjun and Gu Jinzhi, which made the emperor very satisfied.

He has a new understanding of Gu Yantao.

Zhu Zhongjun donated all the guards of Luzhou Palace and the inventory of the treasury over the years, and the news spread quickly.

Who will be the commander of the reinforcements is Ning Xi's concern.

What should I do is something that Nanchang King and other vassal kings worry about.

——*——*——

The King of Nanchang received the news, and immediately went to Gu's house to find Zhu Zhongjun to confirm whether the news was true.

Zhu Zhongjun was so stupid, he didn't know how powerful it was.Tell him right away it's true.The king of Nanchang felt cold in his heart at that time.

What a pity, his guards are not safe!

Even his treasury was lost!

It is the imperial court's business to quell the chaos. How come now, the imperial court doesn't need to make any effort, but instead raids them vassal kings?But when Zhu Zhongjun started, the King of Nanchang dared not follow closely behind.I'm afraid he won't be able to leave the capital for the rest of his life.

Didn't the emperor imprison him in the capital because he was afraid of his military strength?

With this excuse, it is estimated that all his troops will be handed over to the court.

Now that the news is true, we should strive for the initiative.

The King of Nanchang immediately entered the palace: "I heard that Zhongjun donated all the guards of the palace to help the emperor's brother. I am also willing to donate the guards of the palace to help the emperor to calm the chaos. It's just my fief It has always been barren. I am only afraid of food and grass..."

He can only protect the army and money now.

It would be nice to keep the same.

The emperor Long Yan is very happy.Immediately said: "I am very pleased that Zhonglin has this heart. For food and grass, I can ask other people to borrow it, and Zhonglin can send troops."

Without a word of politeness, he accepted the guard army of King Nanchang.

A total of [-] elite soldiers were carefully cultivated by the King of Nanchang.

Just sending it out like this made his heart bleed from pain.

In fact, he also understands in his heart.It's a matter of time.Otherwise, it would be impossible for the emperor to let him leave Beijing.During these days in Beijing, the King of Nanchang gradually figured it out.

The emperor wanted to clean him up.There are thousands of ways, even if he has [-] elite soldiers.

Therefore, [-] elite soldiers could not give him the slightest sense of security.

If the emperor wants to doubt him and deal with him, he can only bear it.Thinking about it this way, the [-] elite soldiers became less difficult to part with.

Besides, didn't Zhongjun lose both money and troops?

Compared with Zhu Zhongjun, he at least kept his treasury...

With someone worse than himself, the king of Nanchang didn't feel how miserable he was, so he went home.

Overnight, all the worries of the emperor were resolved.

The [-] elite soldiers from Nanchang Mansion who worried him day and night were also recruited invisibly.

The emperor's mood was unprecedentedly good, and even the defeat of An Nanguo's rebellion did not make him angry.Next, take this opportunity to search for other uncles and brothers, let them donate money, and weaken the power of the feudal land.

Compared with the army, those uncles and brothers should be more willing to donate money.

They all have only more than 1 guards, which is not enough to cause harm.

Throughout September, all the kings from all walks of life were ordered to return to Beijing.

When they came, they probably knew the purpose of the trip.As soon as they arrived in Beijing, they all cried poor, saying that they had no money, the harvest of the fief was not good, and so on.

The emperor watched coldly.

Either give money, or send troops if you don't have money.

The emperor knows exactly how many guards they have, and this cannot be blamed.

In the end, the emperor received a large amount of donations from various kings.

This amount of money is enough to feed 12 reinforcements for a year.

After arranging the requisition troops, we began to consider the generals of the reinforcements.

Jiang Liang, Minister of the Ministry of War, made a big fool of himself this time, and was repeatedly scolded by the emperor in the court, so he took a deep breath in his heart, and he volunteered to be the commander-in-chief.

The emperor did not refuse.

Next, there are two pioneers.

One is naturally from the Nanchang Palace, and the other is from the Luyang Palace. This is something on the surface, which means that the army still belongs to the two palaces and is only temporarily requisitioned.

Nanchang Wang knew that this was just a formality.

When this army returns, the vanguard he sent may not be able to return.Anyway, the donations were all donated, and the King of Nanchang didn't bother to struggle anymore, instead of sending his commander, he sent a random general.

On King Luyang's side, the most painful person was Ning Xi.

——*——*——

When it was learned that King Luyang donated the [-] guards of the palace to the imperial court to serve as reinforcements for Annan's chaos.Ning Xi lost his temper.

His lofty ambitions are pinned on this army.

As a result, the court confiscated it.

Every palace may see the guards, this is the ancestral system.Ning Xi couldn't think of any way for the court to confiscate the army of the palace without following the ancestral system.

In the end, that stupid Luyang King himself gave the emperor an idea and compensated himself.

same as everyone else.Ning Xi was sure that the Gu family was playing tricks.

Besides Gu Yantao, who else would be so harmful to others?

The matter could no longer be turned around, and Ning Xi really had no choice but to be so angry that his heart ached.

The people from the Ministry of War informed him to go back to Luzhou and let him serve as the vanguard, which made Ning Xi angry again.

This pioneer.Unless he can make great contributions, Ning Xi doesn't want to go if he can come back and talk about it!He changed from an upright commander of [-] elite soldiers to a polished general overnight. How can this not be annoying?

"My lord, why don't I go?" The subordinates around him said to Ning Xi, "Someone has to be a pioneer. Of course, my lord can't go. In the future, the prince will return to Luzhou. I still need to build a guard army according to the ancestral system, and I need my lord." Contribute..."

To build a guard army, 6000 people is the upper limit, otherwise the emperor will not agree.

At the beginning, it was possible to build a guard army of 6 people, which was chartered by the first emperor, and Luzhou was used as a backup for Shoucheng.

Each palace can only see three guards, and each guard has a number ranging from [-] to [-].Although say no.There can be more than [-] people.The emperor will stay in the middle.

What's the use of 6000 people?

Ning Xi is full of ambition.All of a sudden it vanishes into nothingness.

This made him angry and confused.

"Let Sun Ke go." Ning Xi finally said harshly, "That kid must be by the prince's side and said something bad. Maybe this time, he also had his idea!"

Soon, Ning Xi reported Sun Ke's name.

The emperor hesitated.

He knew that Zhu Zhongjun liked Sun Ke very much, and played with Sun Ke all day long.

He approached Zhu Zhongjun and asked his opinion.

Zhu Zhongjun said: "Okay, okay. Sun Ke went out to play, will he bring me something fun when he comes back?"

He doesn't understand these at all.

The emperor asked for nothing, so he agreed to let Sun Ke be the pioneer.

Sun Ke can also choose a lieutenant general.

He chose Yao Wencuo.

This made Ning Xi and the others puzzled.

Everyone knows that Yao Wencuo is Ning Xi's confidant, and Sun Ke is at odds with Ning Xi, how could it be Ning Xi's person?

"Don't let him come back." Ning Xi finally thought that he was actually not bad, so he told Yao Wencuo to keep an eye on Sun Ke, and then said, "That kid is not familiar with him, and he always has bad intentions."

Yao asked the wrong answer.

That's it, there's no point in being upset.

Ning Xi thought hard, who knows what will happen in the future?

Now that the palace is no longer a climate, he really doesn't want to go back.

But it can't be said, if the queen mother and the emperor think that he has ulterior motives in the palace, it will be difficult to argue.

"What a f*** bad luck!" Ning Xi spat.

In his heart, he also completely hated Gu Jinzhi and the Gu family, and only wanted to wait until he returned to Luzhou to take care of Gu Jinzhi slowly.

Who that foolish prince would marry should have been within Ning Xi's arrangements, but when the queen mother fell ill, the prince was transferred to the capital, and everything got out of control.

If it weren't for Gu Jinzhi and the Gu family, the palace guards wouldn't be able to do such a big thing!

I regret it when I think of it!

Even Qian Lan's bright face made Ning Xi extremely disgusted.But now, he couldn't hate Qian Lan any more.Qianlan's father is the commander of the capital of Shoucheng.

In the future, when Gu Jin dies, Qian Lan may still be the successor of King Luyang, and the troops of Shoucheng will become the palace of the prince again.

The palace belongs to him, Ning Xi.

When we return to Luzhou, we must kill Gu Jinzhi slowly to get over this, Ning Xi thought.

Everything went even smoother than Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun expected.

Their plan originally thought that there would be many deviations.As a result, their plan fell right into the emperor's arms.

The emperor helped them implement the plan more perfectly.

Zhu Zhongjun thought that with this incident, he and Gu Jinzhi's marriage should be settled within this year.

Right now, this is the only thing he cares about the most.

For the rest, even if it is life or death, he is willing to put it aside.

He wants to marry Gu Jinzhi first, which is what he can't wait for.
