Chapter 91
But Zuo Maodi didn't care about these things. As soon as he heard Emperor Chongzhen said that he was rich, he immediately said: "Your Majesty, if this is the case, you should immediately allocate the relief money to save the people from the fire and water!"

Hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen also had a headache.

Yes, there is some money in hand, but the money is planned to be used to strengthen the army.

That's not enough!
However, the life and death of the common people cannot be ignored!
But the key point is that the money for disaster relief is simply a bottomless pit at present, let alone 100 million taels, even 200 million taels is not enough to fill in!
Disaster relief is needed along the canal, what about the Central Plains, what about Qin...

Almost all over the country, there is no need for disaster relief!
Soldier disasters, droughts, floods, wind disasters, locust plagues, epidemics...

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen's forehead hurts!
It was as if someone kept saying in his mind:
Disaster disaster...

Money, money……

Grain, grain, grain...

If he could call for help, Emperor Chongzhen would probably call for help now!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Zuo Maodi saw that Emperor Chongzhen was silent, so he shouted, his voice was louder than one.

Being summoned back to his senses by him, Emperor Chongzhen asked a little helplessly: "I am using this money to strengthen the army! You should also know that if the imperial army is not strong, what should we do if the thieves are in chaos? Build captives and invade bandits How to do?"

After hearing this, Zuo Maodi also felt a little helpless.He knew that what Emperor Chongzhen said made sense.

However, even though he thought so too, the tragedy of the village being cut off by the Yizi eating each other appeared in front of his eyes.

It is impossible to ignore all this!
So, he played to Emperor Chongzhen again: "Your Majesty, the people are suffering. If you don't save them, the hearts of the court will be lost, and there will be more rebels. I implore Your Majesty, save those people!"

Speaking of the latter, the heavy tone made the atmosphere in the entire hall very depressing.

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen knew that his words were not unreasonable. He sighed and said, "I know, let's wait for a few days, and I will seize the time to search the house and collect some money!"

"..." Zuo Mao was a little dumbfounded when he heard it for the first time.

Never expected that the emperor would give such an answer!
However, he quickly came back to his senses and quickly advised: "Your Majesty, ransacking a house is a serious crime. If it is because of a lack of silver, you will ransack the house regardless of the size of the crime. I'm afraid you won't be able to convince everyone!"

Even though the ruler wanted his ministers to die, and the ministers had to die, what would happen with a little money from you?
But in the end, this is just talk, no one will really take this seriously, it is all an excuse that cannot be resisted.

Emperor Chongzhen heard Zuo Maodi's words, but said lightly: "I know it well, you don't need to worry!"

He already had a candidate in his heart, and the crimes were all the kind of family raiding and extermination.

But when Zuo Maodi heard this, he thought that the emperor was just perfunctory, and couldn't help feeling very worried.

Although he is the father of the emperor, if the officials retaliate, there will be a big commotion, and it may not end well if he turns around.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at his worried expression, but he misunderstood him, thinking that he was worried about the victims, and after thinking about it, he said to him: "Well, the matter of disaster relief is actually urgent. You know the local situation, and Think about it first, how to provide disaster relief?"

Speaking of this, he added: "I am worried that the local officials will pluck the wild goose, and the money I give will end up in the hands of corrupt officials, and the people will not get the money for disaster relief. This is not what I want!"

After hearing this, Zuo Maodi was still a little relieved, quickly received the order, and then withdrew, thinking about what the emperor had told him.

Watching him leave, thinking about what he just said, Emperor Chongzhen was also worried.

He has a lot to say, and he really wants to talk to others. Naturally, he thought of his friend.

So, he took out his mobile phone and contacted his friends in another world.

This time, Liu Weichao almost had a flash connection. As soon as he contacted him, he was connected there.

When Emperor Chongzhen saw this, he couldn't help but immediately thought, it's really good to have the sound set on the phone, and he can be contacted immediately.

Thinking of this, when he was about to speak, he heard Liu Weichao whisper to him: "Wait a minute!"

Then, Emperor Chongzhen saw Liu Weichao seem to be walking through the mobile phone video.

Seeing this scene, he was a little strange.

What happened to Liu Weichao?Why not a direct video chat?Who is he hiding from?Is he hiding from his co-rented friend?

Emperor Chongzhen was thinking about it, but Liu Weichao seemed to have found a place, stopped, and started video chatting with Emperor Chongzhen, "I was in the library just now, everyone was reading, so it's not convenient to answer the phone!"

"Library?" Emperor Chongzhen couldn't recover when he heard that he was not in his own room, but went to another place.

When Liu Weichao saw it, he smiled and explained to him: "It is a place where many books are collected, and it is open to everyone for free, so everyone can read it. I encountered a problem in developing that software, so I came to the library to search for information."

His principle is that if you can solve it yourself, you can solve it yourself. If you can't solve it, you can go to the forum to ask. In the programmer's gathering area, there is always someone who can answer it.

Hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen knew that he was thinking too much.

Of course, these things are trivial to him.

He immediately put it to the back of his mind, and told Liu Weichao about his own affairs: "In the past few days, with your help, I have selected loyal ministers and generals, opened a glass factory, improved steel smelting, and rectified the bureaucracy. I feel that it has been quite effective. A lot of progress has been made. Unexpectedly, Zuo Maodi came to Beijing today and gave me another blow!"

He would only speak like this to Liu Weichao from another world.It is impossible to speak like that even to Queen Zhou or Concubine Tian Gui.

When Liu Weichao heard it, he could see that Emperor Chongzhen seemed a little depressed, so he hurriedly asked with concern: "What's the specific situation?"

Hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen told him what Zuo Maodi had told him, and then added to Liu Weichao: "In addition to vaccinating, the decrees I issued include rectifying the administration of officials, promoting the payment of salaries in Qingtun, Seriously, the army must not disturb the people, and the policy of supplying food, I am afraid that it will not have any effect if it leaves the capital!"

Speaking of this, he said without any concealment of frustration: "This is really a sign of the end of the dynasty! As the emperor, I really failed. I am ashamed of my brother and my ancestors!"

Hearing this, Liu Weichao didn't speak immediately, but asked Emperor Chongzhen to vent out the negative emotions in his heart, and then said to him with a smile: "I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, you have to treat such a big one who is already terminally ill. How could it be possible to turn things around in just a few days?"
