Chapter 42
It's just a pity that Hu Guang came from a later life, and he can't be fooled.Just one of the simplest reasons, if being an official is really so wronged and poor, then why are there so many people rushing to become an official?
However, Hu Guang did not intend to expose his words, but instead followed his words and asked: "Qing and others have worked hard for Ming Dynasty, why are you not paying enough salary?"

"..." Everyone was speechless, why didn't you know, you were pretending to be stupid!

However, even if they knew that the emperor was pretending to be stupid, they did not dare to expose it and could only answer truthfully.Bi Ziyan, Minister of the Household Department, raised his head and replied honestly: "Your Majesty, the imperial court is unable to pay."

"Oh, I just remembered that the imperial court has been in short supply for a long time, not only your salaries, but also the salaries of the frontier soldiers, and the disaster relief, etc., are all due to lack of money, is that so?" Hu Guang pretended to be suddenly enlightened. , confirming to them.

As soon as his words fell, the scene became quiet for a while, and then thunderous flattery sounded immediately.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"Good regards, Your Majesty!"

"exactly!"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Hu Guang interrupted them with a wave of his hand and said, "Okay, since that's the case, you and I, as the ministers of the Ming Dynasty, will all think of a countermeasure. As long as it can fill the treasury, you can pay a full amount of salary, no matter what the method is." , even if I write down the methods of those rich households copying their families and exterminating their families, I will not blame them! I will see you tomorrow morning. Well, everyone must have one, understand?"

When these officials heard this, they were stunned for a moment. The emperor's determination to ask for money seems to be very firm!

Thinking of this, they quickly agreed in unison, but they were relieved in their hearts.It seems that what happened today is probably over, and Xue Lian is the only one who is unlucky.

Sure enough, the emperor said to them: "I have also dispatched military tents here, please don't let me worry about the rest of the matter, the donated money and food must be in place, the capital and those kind-hearted people, let them donate if they can." Donate, no matter what you do, I only need one, don’t let me see these refugees dying of hunger and cold again!”

After he finished speaking, he ignored the officials' responses, clamped his legs around the horse's belly, and drove the horse away.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Whether it was officials, soldiers, or those refugees, they all knelt on the ground and sent them off in unison.

"Ding, achievement value +1, from refugee A!"

"Ding, achievement value +1, from refugee B!"

"Ding, achievement value +1, from soldier A!"

"Ding, the achievement value +1 comes from the eunuch Zhenghua!"

"..."

The sound of ding ding ding was continuous, longer than ever before.However, most of the achievement points were contributed by the refugees, and few of the high-ranking officials contributed.

But even so, after the system prompt ended, Hu Guang immediately checked the lower left corner of the chat group: the achievement value was 1512.

I took the exam and made a fortune!This was Hu Guang's first thought. He didn't expect that the achievement value would exceed a thousand when he came out this time, so why worry about it? Just use it.Anyway, there is still a long way to go to Mangui, let's try with another ten or eight people.

Thinking of doing it, Hu Guang immediately wanted to click the add button.But at this moment, Gao Shiyue drove his horse closer to him, and then asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, it's time for lunch, look?"

When Hu Guang heard this, he looked up at the sky, and it was almost noon.He turned his head and looked around, and found that it was during the martial law period in the capital, and there were no restaurants and restaurants open at all.At this moment, he realized that if the prisoners would not retreat and the martial law in the capital would not be lifted, it would be very inconvenient to the lives of the people in the capital, and at the same time it would inevitably cause great economic losses.

If it was the original Emperor Chongzhen, even if he didn't care about what to eat, he still had to worry about the dignity of the royal family, and he might return to the palace.But Hu Guang came here through time travel, what is royal dignity?Can I eat it?After thinking about it for a while, he said indifferently: "Let's go, go to Manqing's for dinner!"

When it came to eating, Hu Guang was actually hungry, so he didn't think about adding others, so he picked up his horse speed a little and left quickly.

In the arrow tower at the head of the city, Man Gui was ordered to set up the headquarters directly in the face of danger.As a result, Li Fengxiang, the admiral of the Beijing camp and the eunuch of Bingbi Bingbi, was ordered to assist Man Gui, so he had no choice but to stay at the top of the city. At this time, they were all eating.

Li Fengxiang didn't bother to eat with these big soldiers, but ate alone in a room.Man Gui was promoted from the lowest rank of soldier. He was used to being in the army, so he didn't care about his status.Eating a large bowl with a group of cronies under his command, he wished he could fill his stomach and do things.

It's no wonder that the emperor entrusted the city defense to him, which is equivalent to entrusting his life to him.This kind of trust made Man Gui, who had no one in the court, feel even more grateful, wishing to show his loyalty to the emperor.

At this moment, a servant broke in suddenly, and hurriedly asked where Li Fengxiang was at the first sentence, saying that the emperor had an order.

Man Gui was a little surprised, he didn't know what it meant that the emperor didn't look for him, but only looked for Li Fengxiang?But he didn't dare to be negligent, so he quickly had his servant lead him to Li Fengxiang's room in the inner room.

After a while, the servant left in a hurry.Behind him was Li Fengxiang who was a little panicked, and when he came out, he yelled loudly to remove all the food and drinks from his room.

Man Gui was depressed when he saw it, why did Li Fengxiang not even eat his food?He couldn't figure it out, but Zhichangzi's character made him immediately ask: "Eunuch Li, what's the big deal?"

Li Fengxiang was very busy, and after directing the people to remove the food and drinks, he said to the people: "Come on, put the table and chopsticks here, our family wants to have lunch with Lao Man!"

Man Gui didn't see him answering, but when he heard what he said, he couldn't help feeling even more depressed.Just because he has a straight temper doesn't mean he's stupid.Li Fengxiang's usually high-ranking posture, even if the emperor asked him to be the governor of the capital, he still had that kind of meaning, and looked down on him a bit.

For this, he has no dissatisfaction.After all, it is not a day or two for warriors to be looked down upon by civil servants or eunuchs. This is something that all warriors are accustomed to.Therefore, Li Fengxiang's abnormal behavior made him even more confused.

After Li Fengxiang finished his work, he sat down and said to Man Gui with a smile: "The emperor is out of the palace, and Long Yan was furious when he found out about the refugees, and just sent someone to transfer some military tents from the Beijing camp. "

"Bang Dang" a few times, but when two generals heard the news, they lost the bowl in their hands and fell to the ground.

The emperor went out of the palace to inspect such things. If you look forward, only Emperor Zhengde had such a thing.How many years has it been? In such a period, the current emperor would go out of the palace to observe the people's sentiments?
