Chapter 559 I was teasing you just now

As an assistant minister in the cabinet, he knew that the emperor was indeed somewhat capable, and that miraculous heaven-level secret agent alone made it difficult for people to understand.

But the emperor wanted to revive the Ming Dynasty, and he was a little impatient. After achieving a small success, he thought about eating a big fat man in one bite. Haha, plotting a trick is not something you can just sit in the Forbidden City and take it for granted.

The grassland is not as vast as the Guan Nei. It is endless. You can repel the Mongols, but defeating them is a dream! If there are not enough people there, it will feed the wolves on the grassland, but if there are too many people there, they will have run away long ago, and they can still drag you to death!

It is best to rush to the grassland to fight, because it is easy to come back defeated. In this way, it will be easier to implement than the previous Liaodong war, so it is a sure thing to overthrow Xue Guoguan first.

Then, Wen Tiren, who recommended Xue Guoguan to join the cabinet, was the next target. Originally, he was worried that the emperor would protect him, but now it seems, haha!

However, there are many cabinet ministers recommended by Wen Tiren. If there is a counterattack, they should not be underestimated. It would be best to inquire about Qin Jin's side before launching the next plan!

Thinking like this, he made a decision, admired the box of brand-new banknotes for a while, and finally put them back to their original place and left the study.

In the Harem of the Forbidden City, Emperor Chongzhen was with Empress Zhou that night. After enjoying themselves, Empress Zhou lay in the arms of Emperor Chongzhen and suddenly whispered: "Your Majesty, there is something wrong with me. Due to the ancestral teachings, it is difficult to say. But if I don't say it, it will be like a stick in my throat. I am really in a dilemma!" "

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he stretched out his hand to lift Queen Zhou's chin, looked at her sad face and said, "Since it is the ancestral teaching, what else do you say?"

"..." Empress Zhou thought the emperor would agree to what she said, but she didn't expect this reply, and she was stunned for a moment. After a while, he finally nodded and said, "Your Majesty, I understand!"

"What do you know!" Emperor Chongzhen said with a smile, "I was teasing you just now. If you have something to say, just say it. If you hold it in your heart, you may get sick!"

When Empress Zhou heard this, she couldn't help but show a rare girlish attitude. She rolled her eyes at Emperor Chongzhen. Then, listening to Emperor Chongzhen's heartbeat, she said gently and a little seriously: "I know that the court needs money very much, but there is a certain measure in everything." Okay. Good people will never maliciously default on paying taxes to the court. They really have to default on taxes because they have no money. If the court ignores everything and all the taxes in arrears have to be recovered, I don’t know how many families will be ruined... …”

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, as long as he was not stupid, he would understand what Queen Zhou was talking about. He wasn't angry, he just said "hmm" lightly.

"Your Majesty, you see, the imperial court has already allocated additional Liao wages for the establishment of captives in Liaodong..." When Queen Zhou mentioned this, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly remembered, yes, there are also Liao wages. He was not careful. Forgot about this!

"...Your Majesty, in short, I want to see the day when my Ming Dynasty is peaceful and the people are safe, and all the nations come to court. But I am really worried, too much is not enough, haste makes waste!"

After hearing what she said, Emperor Chongzhen asked calmly: "Is this your own idea or did someone ask you to give me some advice?"

Upon hearing this, Queen Zhou's expression changed, and she knelt down from Emperor Chongzhen's arms and said to Emperor Chongzhen seriously: "Your Majesty, there has been a storm outside, and it is difficult for me not to know. What I just said, These are all my worries!"

Emperor Chongzhen stared at her for a while and suddenly said: "My beloved concubine is gone!"

When Queen Zhou heard this, she was a little stunned, but then she understood what the emperor meant, and her face suddenly turned red. She quickly lay back in Emperor Chongzhen's arms and wrapped herself tightly in a thin quilt.

"Don't worry, Queen. Mr. Xue Ge is very measured in collecting back taxes. As for kind people? Haha, the Queen doesn't need to issue good people cards to them if she doesn't know what's going on outside." Emperor Chongzhen hugged Queen Zhou and said with emotion. , "I already know this. The results will be seen in a few days. By then, the queen will understand."

Empress Zhou was confused when she heard what the emperor said. But she finally said what she wanted to say and didn't see the emperor being unhappy, so she felt relieved.

After a while, Queen Zhou fell asleep. However, Emperor Chongzhen did not fall asleep. He followed his own habit and went to the chat group to check on the situation before falling asleep.

What surprised him was that in addition to the news from the grassland, Wen Tiren also sent him a private message: "Your Majesty, I do not dare to forget my oath. I only wish that I would have more time to fight against the wind and waves. May the waves be calm." , May the warehouses be filled with strength, and may all nations come to court!”

"Haha, this old guy, is he afraid that he can't bear the pressure and will take the blame?" Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but laugh secretly after reading it.

He clearly remembered Wen Tiren's oath, and he would do his best and die! To this end, he made a series of plans imitating the Song Dynasty, including tax collection, commercial tax collection, sea ban, etc. However, these things are very difficult. Even if he, the emperor, is backing him, he is still worried. Now that I hear these public opinions in the capital, I feel a lot of pressure!

Emperor Chongzhen was still very satisfied with Wen Tiren as his first assistant. He was the one pushing for the sea ban. Xue Guoguan's ability to do the sinner's work so seriously is also due to his first assistant. What's more, there are all other aspects of things that the chief assistant has to worry about and still satisfy himself.

Starting from the end of last year, we first repelled the Jianlu invaders who invaded the Gyeonggi area, and then conducted large-scale raids on Shanxi merchants, liquidated Shanxi merchants' backers in the court, and so on. This series of events can be said to have happened very violently, and I was very strong at the time, making it impossible for anyone to object.

Now, those with vested interests have come to their senses and are starting to stir up trouble secretly. It can be foreseen that even if we defeat them this time, there will still be trouble makers in the future. So come on, I am the emperor and I have a golden finger. I am afraid that you guys will not succeed!

Emperor Chongzhen was thinking happily, so he privately chatted with Wen Tiren and said, "Qing Wen, I will show you something!"

The group leader privately chatted about the past information, and the system would irresponsibly disturb the other party immediately, so Wen Tiren immediately responded: "Your Majesty, I have my thoughts..."

Regardless of Wen Tiren's confession again, Emperor Chongzhen sent a panoramic photo of the victory scene in Guihua City, and then dug out the results of the victory summarized by Li Dingguo and sent them to Wen Tiren.

After sending these messages, Emperor Chongzhen finally said: "I already know the intention of the capital's remarks, and I am just waiting for the day when the good news comes!"

"..." Wen Tiren was stunned for a while before replying, "Your Majesty is truly the master of the Ming Dynasty's resurgence! I'm so lucky, so lucky!"
