I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 504
There's a lot of construction going on again.

After the main yamen of the imperial court moved to the Palace of Qinzheng, there was too much free office space, and it was still next to a large-scale official office.

At this time, it was surrounded, just like when Qinzheng Hall was built.The government is building again.

However, this time, the entire court was silent, and no one said a word.

Everyone knows that the workshop city has made a lot of money, and everyone knows that the money from the workshop city belongs to the officials, but there is no reason to transfer it to the court.

At this time, the government is building a large-scale construction project, which is exactly what the courtiers expected.

Officials build palaces, from bricks and stones to wood, from paint to tung oil, everything needs to be purchased, and every transaction will generate taxes...~ When there is no way to transfer this large sum of money to the court, let the officials spend it. It's best to drop it.

"Third Brother, the Empress Dowager's Ciming Palace has also been in disrepair for many years..."

When Tao Niang said this, she was a little embarrassed.

Zhao Xi understood that this was to repair the inner garden.When the Qinzheng Palace was built last time, Tao Niang said so.It's just that at that time Zhao Xi wanted to cheat the courtiers, those courtiers who had nothing to find fault with, but Zhao Xi didn't agree.

this time...
"Where is the money and food for Xiaoqin..."

"Third brother, Xiaoqin's side is enough, and you don't even need to use the internal storage."

Tao Niang was still worried about making trouble with officials, especially about being made trouble by courtiers.

I remember that when the first emperor had repaired a garden, he was stopped by the courtiers.The garden that has been tidied up halfway is still deserted.

Therefore, even if she has an idea to repair the inner garden and build a few gardens that can be played, Tao Niang also thinks that she will try not to use the money in the inner treasury to save the courtiers from moaning.

Over the years, with regard to the income from his own properties, not to mention repairing the inner garden and building a garden, even renovating the entire imperial palace is enough.

Zhao Qin said more than once that money was too much.

"Then fix it..."

Is this rich?Zhao Xi is not sure, but the royal family must be quite rich now.

Since I was a teenager, almost all of the hot industries in the country are related to me. It is not surprising that the royal family can be so rich.

Even the court ladies and eunuchs have started to pay salaries, which shows that the royal family is indeed rich.

As for money, it is only money when you spend it, and it is just a number when you put it aside.

The current inner garden is not expensive.After Zhao Xi ascended the throne, Zhao Xi let them freely choose their careers for the successive batches of maids that her father had collected.

At this time, there were many more workshops suitable for women in the workshop city than there were maids in the palace.

Originally, Zhao Xi thought that after he came to the throne, the courtiers would try their best to transfer the property under his name to the court. After all, there is a saying that: the heavenly family has no personal affairs.

Zhao Xi is also ready for this.

In the end, until I moved Neiyuan's workshop to the workshop city, should it be Neiyuan's income or Neiyuan's.

It seems that the courtiers are not stupid and have no intention of going to the pit.

This is a matter that affects the whole body, no one will poke the hornet's nest.

All of Zhao Xi's properties are not owned by the royal family or by himself alone. Every property is related to the courtiers.When Zhao Xi made the contract in the early years, he had already set up a set of mutual advances and retreats, just waiting for such a day...

Up to now, it is no longer simply a huge industry, but also a huge relationship of interests.

This has also made Neiyuan a wealthy place today.

There was also a lot of construction in the inner garden, except for a few scattered memorials of accusations that were kept by Zhao Xi, which did not cause much turmoil.

That's right, the Prime Minister of the country has the right to check the internal treasury. Since the internal treasury has not been moved, it means that the officials are consuming the money and food of the workshop city, so no one will talk nonsense.

As for the fact that the imperial court should not engage in large-scale construction during the war, no one will take it seriously even if there is a lesson learned from Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty.

It is estimated that no matter what thoughts the courtiers have, they are all paying attention to the battle ahead, and only the battle ahead will have a result. Whether it is a suffocation, or a large-scale accusation of the minister and the officials, the outcome of the battle will play a decisive role.

Zhao Xi wasn't worried about the war. If famous generals like Guo Kui and Zhong E led a new army armed to the teeth, they couldn't win against Zong Siluo, and they should have gone to heaven with gunpowder.

What's more, a large part of the school captains of the Western Army returned after receiving training in the martial arts hall. They are proficient in firearms combat and too many battle case analysis, including understanding of topography.In this battle, there were no accidents, and there should be no accidents.

Not sure about the courtiers though.Some good people have analyzed the reasons for the officials' victories in several battles, and almost all of them won by odds.

Whether it was the first southern expedition, or the fight with Xixia who seemed to want to confront it head-on.Victory is victory, but a careful analysis of these two wars reveals that the element of planning is far greater than the confrontation between the two warriors.

All fighters win by right combination and by surprise.The two big victories of the officials, in the end, were all won by means of firearms and tricks.

But this time, without the strategic command of the government, because it was a local war, the imperial court did not send any other important ministers who could coordinate the Huanqing and Huichuan armies, and they still fought in a narrow strip from Lanzhou to Miaochuan City. The outcome was uncertain. It is the understanding of most people.

The court uses literature to control military affairs, and this time the civil servant in front is Wang Shao. With Wang Shao's qualifications, it is very difficult to completely suppress such famous generals as Guo Kui and Chong E.

It is not difficult to see that this was deliberately done by the court.Under the entanglement of worrying about failure and hoping for failure, there is such a weird combination of civil and military ministers ahead.

There are already signs of officials favoring martial arts, or they have always been thinking like this.

With two major wars at the end, plus the benefits brought to the court by conquering Annan and seeking Dali, the court already had a trend of thinking about strengthening the military.This is not a good sign.

Therefore, subconsciously, there should be many people who hope that this battle will be defeated, so that they can pour some cold water on the officials.

A big battle doesn't just start with a fight.Although Guochao's logistics transfer has been greatly improved, there is still a lot of work to be done in the early stage.

Even in Miaochuan City, warriors need to be summoned... It seems that the two sides have discussed their respective preparations.

According to the report ahead, Wang Shao, Guo Kui, and Chong E have set off with the whole army.With a marching speed of [-] to [-] miles per day, the army should have arrived at Jingyuguan when the court received the report.

To the west of Jingyu Pass, you will enter the canyon area...it is said to be a canyon, but in fact, it is far away from the mountains on the left and right.

This should be an encounter, and the two sides will fight between Lanzhou and Miaochuan.

Zhao Xi looked at the map, and then thought about the memory of his driving west...~
There are chariots, gunpowder ammunition, improved eight-ox crossbows, and abundant logistical supplies, well-trained and heroic Western troops.There should be no surprises in this battle...

This battle was a battle that gave Wang Shao the confidence to appreciate Hehuang.If you win, everything is easy to say, if you lose, not only Wang Shaopingrong will be delayed infinitely, but the direction of the court will also change.

At this time, Zhao Xi understood his father very well, and he was familiar with the military strategy. This was another small local battle, and it was still like this.When Dad woke up from a deep sleep, it was inevitable that he would not think about food and drink.
