Chapter two hundred and ninety seventh beat the letter king

The Ming Dynasty was extremely happy, but for the Later Jin Dynasty, it was a huge shock.

Huang Taiji led Daishan and other two other Beile members, plus important members of the Eight Banners, and the Manchu and Han ministers all came to Amin's mansion, and then went to Jiergalang's mansion.

Amin was still in a coma and was seriously injured. Jirgalang did not support him. Before he arrived in Liaoyang, he fell into a coma.

Looking around, Huang Taiji was furious and roared at a group of ministers in the palace.

Manguertai was also very angry and said angrily to Huang Taiji: "What are you afraid of? I will lead my troops to kill North Korea!"

Dai Shan was in a state of view of the overall situation, with a stern expression and no words were spoken.

He thought of a series of actions before the Ming Dynasty. In his opinion, they were all pretexts, just to cover up the Dongjiang Army!

Fan Wencheng didn't speak. In this situation, if Huang Taiji didn't speak, he was not qualified to speak.

Others, such as Haoge and others, continued to speak in a row, shouting angrily, clamoring to lead troops eastward to attack Dongjiang Town.

Huang Taiji had a gloomy face and sat there without saying anything.

This time, Amin's great defeat, coupled with the previous battle of Ningyuan, was a constant failure for the Later Jin Dynasty, which greatly affected the morale of the whole country.

He waved his hand, suppressed the chaotic voice, and said, "Ben Khan decided to attack Jinzhou as soon as possible, and all the troops and horses should go to war with Ben Khan!"

Huang Taiji knew very well that Dongjiang Town was not the biggest threat, but the biggest threat was the ever-stabilizing Ningjin defense line!

"Okay, I must give the Nanman a little good look at that time!"

"Slaughter ten cities, see if he dares to go against my Dajin!"

"This time, we will definitely go down Shanhaiguan to let the Nanman see how powerful I am in Dajin!"

This counterattack by the Dongjiang Army completely angered the Later Jin Dynasty.

With the orders of the three major Beile in charge, the army gathered rapidly from Mongolia and Liaodong.

In the palace, Zhu Xu had just returned to the imperial study room when Fu Changzong came over.

My nephew and uncle were not in the imperial study room, and he walked towards the side room while talking.

Fu Changzong said, "Emperor, King Xin ordered the Ministry of Revenue to prepare 800,000 taels and reward it to Mao Wenlong."

Fu Changzong's tone was as plain as possible. Zhu Youjian was involved in military affairs and was sensitive, not to mention that he, the emperor's uncle, was to do things.

Zhu Xu looked surprised and then smiled and said, "It seems that my emperor brother can't stand the loneliness anymore."

Fu Changzong bowed slightly and did not answer the conversation.

Cao Huachun followed by, silently, and just glanced at Fu Changzong indifferently.

Zhu Xu took his hands back and thought while walking that he could hand over government affairs to Zhu Youjian, but military affairs were absolutely not possible. It was not that he, the emperor, could not tolerate others' power, but that Zhu Youjian's character made him very worried.

The Ming Dynasty today cannot withstand any setbacks.

After thinking for a while, Zhu Xu suddenly said, "I haven't released this matter yet. Who told King Xin?"

Cao Huachun was stunned, stepped forward, and said solemnly, "I will order someone to investigate now."

Zhu Xu nodded and said, "How many days will it take to ascend the throne ceremony?"

Cao Huachun said: "Return to the emperor, half a month later, on the sixth day of the second month."

Zhu Xu said: "Well, uncle, you take the time to tell King Ping that the treasury is empty, and the salary of the royal family will be reduced by half this year. Cao Huachun sent an order, and three days later, the Qianqing Palace summoned the royal family vassal kings. The Ministry of Personnel was appointed by officials above the sixth rank, and my will shall prevail. The Ministry of Revenue, whenever tax silver comes in and out, it shall be submitted to the Ministry of Revenue for approval."

Fu Changzong listened unchangedly and sighed in his heart. This was equivalent to depriving King Xin of the appointed officials and using the power of the national treasury.

He was very optimistic about King Xin. As Zhu Xu's assistant in government affairs, he was diligent and self-reliant, humble and tolerant, but he always did something wrong and could not see the essence of things clearly.

Cao Huachun bowed and said, "Abide by the order."

He also shook his head secretly. This knock was very serious for King Xin, and he could only hope that he could take care of himself.

As the three of them said, they arrived at the side room. Fu Changzong sat down and reported: "Your Majesty, the tax revenue in various places has become increasingly unsatisfactory this year, especially the provincial governors of the coast. The tax silver reported was about 20% lower than last year. In addition, there are more and more disasters in various places, and many people have reported tax cuts and replenished them. This year, the treasury must be unable to make ends meet..."

In fact, since the mid-Wanli period, the Ming Dynasty's finances were not enough to make ends meet, not to mention the three major abilities that consumed the national strength.

Zhu Xu was not worried about this, saying, "The Ministry of Revenue should make good plans. All the money should be used on the blade. Don't pay any money that is dispensable or is a waste of money. In another half a year, I can control the troops from all over the country. I don't worry that anyone dares to cause trouble and cannot suppress it."

Fu Changzong nodded and said, "I and my colleagues from the Ministry of Revenue have formulated a new tax law. Referring to the 'one whip' of Taifu Zhang that year, it will be submitted to the King of Xin in a few days. The emperor will review it first."

Fu Changzong said, handing over two thick memorials.

Zhu Xu couldn't finish reading it for a while, so he took it and put it aside and said, "Well, I'll talk about it after reading it. Is there any feedback on the breeding at the beach?"

Fu Changzong said: "The news came from Chen Bangyan, a Tianjin Wei, that he had found many fishermen and said that it was still winter and it would take some time."

Zhu Xu said, "Well, let him stare at me and don't relax. The disaster is getting worse and worse now. If you want to try your best, you must walk on multiple legs and find more ways to provide disaster relief."

As the Minister of Revenue, no one was more profound than him and agreed to "yes".

Fu Changzong stayed in Jingyang Palace for more than half an hour and discussed with Zhu Xu for a while before leaving the palace.

After he left the palace, the imperial edict from the Silijian was also issued to the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Personnel.

The decree is simple and clear, which means putting a "tight curse" on the Prime Minister. If it is more profound, it means collecting power!

Those who are thorough in mind and well versed in the court are secretly shocked. They guess whether King Xin angered the emperor. This is a naked lesson!

Who doesn't know that the Minister of Revenue is the emperor's uncle, and that must be directed towards the emperor. Zhou Yingqiu, the emperor's confidant and old minister in the secret residence, is also the leader of the emperor.

Such a clear order is just a little short of being rejected by Ming orders!

Inside Wen Zhao Pavilion.

A cloud of sorrow is bleak, silent, and terrifying.

Qian Longxi and others were chilling, and then they realized that everything in the Ming Dynasty was still in the hands of the little emperor in the deep palace, and they were not qualified to seize power!

Zhu Youjian locked himself in the room and stared out the window in a daze.

"Why, I just want to do something? Revitalize the Ming Dynasty... As a prime minister, what's wrong with rewarding meritorious ministers? Your Majesty, you are also a descendant of Taizu. Could it be that you really don't have the will to cheer up..."

Zhu Youjian felt sad, but he was mixed with anger, his eyes were fierce, and his finger bones were white when he clenched his fists.

Suddenly, a confidant pushed the door in, closed the door, and whispered in his ear: "Prince, Lord Yuan is asking for a meeting in the mansion."

There were many people from all over the Ming Dynasty who found Zhu Youjian's intentions, but the one that suited him the most was Yuan Chonghuan. Whether it was his Ningyuan military achievements or the "Five Years of Pacifying Liao", they were very suitable for him.
