. In Wuyi Hall, the ministers looked at each other, but they didn't want to be the first to speak. However, Gao Gong, who came to listen, couldn't stand the timid look of these ministers in the ministry and said clangingly: "Wufu, it's actually obvious." Gao Gong no longer avoided dealing with them like this boringly, and suddenly stood up. "If the national defense and military expenses are reduced, the Ming Dynasty will be in a state of disgrace. If the disaster-stricken provinces do not provide relief, they will only cause civil unrest! Hegong must not be repaired, otherwise several provinces will suffer disaster next year. As for the salaries of the officials, it is unpleasant to say, Yuan Fu wants to force them to corruption?" As he said that, he snorted coldly, revealing the answer to the mystery that everyone was reluctant to touch: "Actually everyone knows what should be dismounted... at least slow down, and talk about it when they have money in the future."

Of course you know, isn’t it just the emperor’s two palaces and two views, and is there Yuzhitan?

"g In the 41st year of Jiajing, the Ministry of Works has rebuilt three halls for the palace and built the Shengshou Palace in Xiyuan. It costs more than ten million yuan. Now the three halls have been repaired, and the emperor has a place to live. As for those two palaces and two temples, it is not urgent, so why can't we wait?" Gao Gong simply looked directly at Xu Jie and said, "Yuan Fu, as the prime minister, you can't let the emperor come to everything, right? And everyone here, as ministers, we must always be in line with the conscience of heaven and earth, and the people of the country." His eyes flew over everyone, but found that everyone was lowering their heads slightly, as if they were pondering something, but they actually didn't dare to look at him.

The needles fell in the room, and there was only a slight crackling sound of charcoal burning.

Finally, Xu Jie spoke, but just sighed softly and said, "Suqing, I used to coincide with you, I just wanted to build the Yuzhi Altar first. As for the two palaces and two viewpoints, let's wait first.

"What about now?" Gao Gong asked.

"Now..." Xu Jie sighed again, then fell into silence.

"Is something happened?" Gao Gong asked anxiously.

"Don't speculate on yourself." Xu Jie shook his head, but seeing that the Secretary of the Book of Changes looked discomfortable, he simply said with all his heart: "One time, another time, everything must be considered from the overall situation. Once King Jing leaves, King Yu becomes the only prince. Do you think it is a good or a bad thing?" He knew that if this decision is made today, he would become the subject of thousands of people. If these Secretary of the Book of Changes oppose him, all the compromise will become a self-digging grave.

When everyone saw that he suddenly jumped to the throne, he was still a little puzzled, but after all, it was a hot topic of attention, and they still said: "Of course it's a good thing. The status of King Yu's crown prince has been confirmed, and no one has ever been distracted from now on."

"I don't think so." Xu Jie said in a shocking way: "I have served the emperor for twenty years. I know more about my current personality than you. I know that the emperor is smart, suspicious, and good at masturbating and jealous. Now he is in a state of silence and moody. Su Qing, what would the emperor think if he really submitted it according to your opinion? Is it possible to agree? Even if he agrees, who dares to spend this?" If he was not forced to force him, Xu Jie would not say such straightforward words, but the effect he said would indeed be immediate.

The ministers were speechless, and even Gao Gong lost his arrogant attitude. He heard Xu Jie say with emotion: "Suqing, you and me can do it by your own nature. At most, you can be exiled to the frontier. I will follow you. The Ming Dynasty has the most no need for people. But there is only one prince, so you can't shake the foundation of the country, right?"

Gao Gong was stunned and speechless. When Xu Jie made him understand the subtle situation of King Yu. It is because of his uniqueness that he is more suspicious of Jiajing. From now on, he may have to be more careful in his own work and speaking, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble to King Yu. Thinking of this, he was completely powerless and sat on the chair without saying a word.

"As the prime minister of a country, Xu certainly wants the people of the world, civil and military officials, and the thirteen provinces of the two capitals and thirteen provinces to be cured, but now the situation of the court does not have the ability, so he can only take care of the most important things first." Xu Jie was moved at this time, tears flashed in his eyes, and he choked and said, "As you have guessed, the holy body and the holy body are already worrying..." Since he was seriously ill, Jiajing rarely received foreign ministers, and all government affairs were conveyed through Xu Jie. Although the ministers had long guessed that the emperor's Long Xiu might be almost out of reach, they still felt extremely shocked to get the political affairs of the chief minister today, and then shed tears.

Seeing the atmosphere change drastically, Xu Jie's tone became firm and said, "At this time, the tightest

I don’t need to say more about what I want.

Let all parties take responsibility first, and then make up for today's debts. Don't worry, with me as the chief minister, all officials and the military, they will not scold you. I will stick to that day until that day, and then resign to thank the world!" Speaking of this, he was full of righteousness.

Everyone hurriedly said, "I hope to share honor and disgrace with Lord Yuanfu and support the overall situation together!" This was sincere. After all, the officials of this era always put their hopes for national reform on the Holy Lord Renjun 039. The greater their disappointment in Jiajing, the greater their hope for King Yu... If it is to protect His Highness Yu, everything is easy to discuss.

"Okay, okay, okay!" Xu Jie nodded in emotion and said, "Thank you for understanding Xu.

"The painstaking efforts." said seriously

"How will the budget be allocated next year?"

"Everyone listened to the elders." The ministers were willing or reluctant, and under this situation,

I can only agree.

"Okay." Xu Jie said unfaithfully: "Zhangshantang."

"Here." Guo Pu stood up and bowed.

"I will give you a salary of half a year first. I will give you one million taels, and you can distribute it." Xu Jie looked at him and said, "Explain more to them, and ask them to put state affairs first, not cause trouble, and not submit memorials.

Guo Pu nodded with embarrassment and said, "I will do my best."

At this time, Xu Jie just wanted to throw out the hot potato, but he didn't care whether he was willing or not, so he immediately turned to Gao Yao and said, "The sage said: 'The way of heaven will damage the excess and make up for the shortcomings'. The territory of our Ming Dynasty is not all hungry. It is also a wealthy province, which is written to several provinces such as Nanzhi, Zhejiang, and Huguang, and ordered them to open the vassal treasury and help the affected provinces." He paused and said, "Tell them that the court will not treat them badly. If you have any requirements, you will be satisfied.

Gao Yao thought for a moment and said softly: "In this way, there will be one million taels of tuition to the Ministry of Industry."

"One.5 million taels." Xu Jie said: "Let Guo Butang help you urge me, this time

The performance record assessment should be less difficult.”

Guo Pu smiled bitterly when he heard this, "This is a sign of threat..."

"I don't care about that much." Xu Jie shook his head and said, "Just put the knife on their necks, it's okay to get it out." After that, he looked at Jiang Dong and said, "On the Ministry of War, I will let Guangdong and Sichuan start expeditions and editors.

How much can we save by trying to solve the military expenditure on the spot?” The so-called editor is Hu Zongxian’s specialty in making the world angry and resentful. Now Xu Jie doesn’t care about so much, so he has to learn it.

"One million taels." Jiangdong said angrily: "If you give me a reduction, the Great Wall will not

After repairing it, the Tartars will come back next year. If you are familiar with the family, you will definitely have a lot of fun."

"It's not reduced." Xu Jie waved his hand and said, "There is still a gap of 500,000 taels..." said Riguang.

Falling on Lei Li, he said, "Leibutang..."

Lei Li also said anxiously: "The money you can't lose in building the Yellow River, otherwise I won't be happy.

Si and Pan Jixun explained.”

"No let-you reduce one by one" Xu Jie smiled awkwardly = "What I mean is that) that 500,000

Two, you borrow from the money house in your name.”

"Oh..." Lei Li nodded depressedly and took on his errand. In this era, the court paid money to the court

It is a shame for the bank to borrow money, and it is said that people are willing to borrow money and repay it.

Finally squeezed out the money for the emperor to build a palace, Xu Jie breathed a sigh of relief and said to everyone: "I will tell the emperor about this matter and tell the emperor about the filial piety to the emperor. The emperor will definitely be very pleased."

Everyone nodded and said in a mess: "But no one except the emperor will be relieved... ●

Although he was alone, Shen Mo's news was still much more informative than ordinary officials. Shortly after the cabinet meeting ended, he learned about the budget plan for the coming year.

When he learned the news, he was lying on the bed and asked Yu Yin to cup him... Yu Yin's technique was no less than a real doctor. He burned the lit moxa sticks in the big green bamboo. When the fire reached its peak, he accurately pressed them on the acupoints on Shen Mo's back, and his movements were stubborn and calm, and he grasped them just right.

Shen Mo enjoyed this feeling of being vaguely lame, but feeling comfortable from the heart, and squinted his eyes and said, "Your technique can't be practiced for ten or eight years."

Yu Yin smiled and said, "The students were poor and their residences were wet. The couple was wet and cold at a young age, and looked down on the doctor. They could only cup and scrape each other. After many years, practice made perfect."

Shen Mo nodded after hearing this and suddenly asked, "It's not easy to pass the previous year, right?"

"That's not what I mentioned before") Yu Yin said with great emotion: "Not everyone is looking forward to the New Year. For wealthy families, they naturally celebrate the New Year happily; for poor families, they are sad every year! Looking back, they have been running through hunger and cold all year round. The whole family is looking forward to the old and young people. What they have been waiting for is to eat meat and wear new clothes in the past few years. But this requirement is really too difficult for a poor and destitute scholar. I can always be ashamed of my family and be scared when the New Year is over."

"It's really not easy." Shen Mo lay on the bed and murmured: "My father and I were back then,

There has been such a period.”

"This is not the saddest thing," Yu Yin sighed, "For a few years, I was extremely lucky and had to be burdened with debts. When the end of the year, the creditors would come to the door to pay for it. In order to avoid the 'National Day 039, I could only hide out before the New Year's Day, leaving my wife and children to listen to the creditors' curses in the broken house and walls, and they dared to go home until the end of New Year's Eve. That feeling really makes me worse than death. That's what makes me sad at the New Year."

After hearing the stories he told in the past, Shun suddenly thought of someone and couldn't help but smile: "You honest person like you have to learn more from Xu Wei. He was also a lot of debt back then, but no creditor dared to come to ask for it, and he could always have a peaceful New Year."

"Oh, what good way does Mr. Wen Chang have?" She Yin said with great interest.

"He actually went out to hide at first, and the New Year was very uncomfortable. Later, he became angry and said that I must live at home for the next year. So the next year, he wrote a couplet with black and white background and posted it in advance.

On the door, the first couplet said: 'Let me be a gentleman during the New Year'; the second couplet said: 'If you want to force debts, it is a villain who is a horizontal banner. 'Come on, serve him with a knife 039." Silent laughed and said: "This method is very effective. I came to collect debts. I left if I don't turn around. As expected, he had a comfortable New Year."

Yu Yin was amused and laughed loudly. Before he finished laughing, he heard the adults say quietly: "Will you make a big profit if you say I will prescribe this prescription to Qingliu officials in Beijing?"

Although he was silent and still jokingly, Yu Yin couldn't laugh anymore and sighed: "Their lives are really sad. Those real-powered yamen are easy to say, such as the Imperial College, the Hanlin Academy, and the Censorate, all point to paying off their debts and spending the New Year. Let's see how the Ministry of Revenue explains to them."

"How do you explain?" Silently moved his body and said, "Since you have done this, you have no intention of explaining to them. However, the Beijing officials were afraid that the fire would be on fire, but they were afraid that the fire would add fuel to the fire and cause some chaos." He said, shaking his head and smiling bitterly, "There are tens of thousands of imperial guards stationed in Beijing, but they all paid ten months of salary. Obviously, the superiors don't want the army to get messed up. As for the Qingliu, just make a fuss. It seems that the adults can take it."

"Can you really afford it?" Yu Yin looked at the Western clock. When the time came, he began to pull out the cup. Looking at the purple-black circles on his back, he whispered: "Sir, you are so hot that you have to pay attention."

Feeling a relaxed and relaxed on his back, he sat up silently, put on his cotton jacket and said, "I can't help but I can't help it. It's weird if I don't get angry?"

"Students also think that Shi Yuegong's view is correct." Yu Yin said cautiously after hearing this: "But now the excitement of the crowd is unexpected. The students think that it is still beneficial for adults to express their opinions appropriately and follow the crowd."

"Um." He said silently: "I understand." But in his heart, he actually had other plans.

It's just that this plan, or even the reason for the fire, cannot be told to outsiders...

Silence was as expected. Two days later, Chu Jicang, who was paid by the Ministry of Revenue, used up a big mess and even fought.

Hurt people.

But this is normal. Whoever encounters this? Even if he has a cotton stick, he will get sparks. If he doesn't make a fuss, he will be called a ghost. The salary of the Beijing officials has been delayed from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. Everyone was waiting for the Maritime Warehouse to release the money, so they all endured it. Most of them rely on borrowing everywhere to support it. By the end of the year, they all owe a lot of debts. If the New Year is over, they will only focus on today's trip.

Therefore, these well-educated people who were usually the most calm and composed, were driven out of their house by their wives before dawn and lined up in front of the Chuji Warehouse to receive their salary. The result was disappointing. The official of the Ministry of Revenue said that there were destinies on them, whether they were six minions or poor officials, today all came equally. Each person was treated three dou of rice, two liters of pepper, and five hundred stagnant treasure money.

The hungry officials were suddenly in anger. Are they the beggars? They couldn't even pay back the debt, so they asked everyone to go home? They were hung up in the Zhenchuji warehouse. As a result, everyone stopped collecting it and clamored to let the Ministry of Revenue be an official and came out to give an explanation.

Lei Li had long expected this to happen, so that all the twenty-five doctors from the Thirteen Qing dynasties had not been sent to the end. The task was to persuade everyone to understand the difficulties of the court and live a light year of peace of mind.

But no matter how clever they were, they could not compare to a hundred meters. The officials did not listen to their style and questioned them, and they asked them, "The novel 510 reading picture version xiaoshuo510.com, where did the money from the Ming Dynasty go? The people from the Ministry of Revenue were also depressed. We want to know more, but the budget for the coming year has not been made public yet. How could these little officials find out the secrets?

After hearing the news, more and more officials rushed over. Hundreds of people were crowded in a confined space. The crowd was excited and noisy. No one could hear who was talking clearly. They only felt their anger rising up. I don’t know who started first and wanted to beat the officials of the Ministry of Revenue to vent their anger. Fortunately, Hai Rui stood up and stopped him, which gave Tong Xi a chance to retreat. As a result, he and several minor officials were beaten and said to have been returned home by hunchback.

After hearing the news, Shen Mo couldn't sit still and ordered people to load a truck of New Year's goods and go to Hai Rui's house to visit.

Ruohan said inconsistency: "I have been to Beijing for so long, but Lianrui has never visited him. He sent New Year's goods to his house a few days ago, but he returned them. Obviously, they don't want to deal with our house, so why bother one by one?"

"Why do you need to put a hot face on someone's cold butt?" Shen Mo said with a smile.

"I'm not that vulgar." Ruohan said with a blank look: "But the meaning is almost the same.

"Haha." Shen Mo shook his head and smiled: "You don't understand the matter here, but there is one,

Since I am a friend, I should treat him consistently, and it should be a role model for the children."

"That's what I say, I won't stop you." Ruohan took out his cloak and put it on him and said, "Better early".

return.

"So sensible." Shen Mo smiled and wanted to kiss her, "I am worthy of being my wife.

Ruohan avoided lightly and blushed, saying, "Let the children see it."
