Gao Qiu responded and said, "I will live up to your majesty's high expectations."

Zhao Ji lowered his head slightly, looked at Zhao Huan, and said: "The draft edict, the lack of personal guards in the Eastern Palace, put the prince in danger, and the consequences are almost irreversible.

For the sake of the safety of the East Palace, the number of personal guards was increased to six hundred, and the household department gave [-] yuan to support the soldiers.

In addition, the prince was concerned about the country and the people, and made great contributions in offering advice. He allocated [-] coins from the two-year-old balance to the East Palace as a reward.

In order to reassure the prince, he is allowed to choose talents by himself and assign them according to the system of the previous dynasty. "

"Thank you, Father, for your kindness." Zhao Huan thanked him respectfully.

Are you willing?

Of course not reconciled!

After finally seizing the opportunity, he just missed it in vain.

If Zhao Ji agrees to conduct a surprise inspection of the entire forbidden army, all the vacancies, corruption, extortion of soldiers, waste of training, etc. inside will definitely be exposed.

It's a pity that Zhao Ji is not interested.

It may not be easy to seize the opportunity in the future, and even may have to wait until he ascends the throne to rectify.

He can only rely on himself, and no one else can rely on him, Zhao Huanming realized.

Fortunately, there are 20 yuan a year, and the officials are prepared by themselves, and there are [-] personal guards. It will be much easier to accumulate strength.

Moreover, recruiting personal guards on your own has no restrictions at all, and you can play at will.

Not bad.

While Zhao Huan was thinking, the imperial edict had been drawn up.

Zhao Ji used the seal after checking that it was correct. Cai Jing and others signed and drew the seal on the spot.

Zhao Huan accepted the edict, saying that everything was settled.

In the future, unless there is another change, Zhao Huan can't easily propose to rectify the Forbidden Army unless he becomes the throne.

When Zhao Huan received the imperial edict, Zhao Ji waved his hand and said, "I'm tired, let's retire."

"I'm waiting to retire."

All the ministers withdrew one by one, but Zhao Huan did not move.

He planned to ask what Zhao Ji was thinking.

It's not that justice must be pursued, but to find out Zhao Ji's attitude, so as to serve as a reference for future actions.

32 secret agreement

Inside the Taiqing Tower, the emperor and prince sat facing each other.

Because of Zhao Huan's request, Zhao Jiping retreated to the left and right, and only two people were there.

"Father." Zhao Huan broke the silence and said, "The world belongs to the Zhao family, and I own every plant and tree.

Now that the Forbidden Army is corrupt, officials at all levels have their hands up and down, how can they condone it? "

This is what Zhao Huan couldn't figure out.

The so-called imperial system actually means that the country belongs to the private ownership of one person.

Since they are all your own things, how can you tolerate other people's encroachment?

"Da Lang's exaggeration." Zhao Ji thought for a while, and said: "The emperor holds great power, and he can take whatever he wants, but he is just sharing the world with the scholar-bureaucrats.

If all the courtiers and officials are gone, and you and my father and son have no three heads and six arms, how can we govern the vast world? "

"Father, the forbidden army is the barrier of the country, if not..."

"Da Lang." Zhao Ji interrupted: "The world is peaceful, why waste money and time."

"The military expenditure has already been spent, and it should be used where it should be used. It can't be corrupted for nothing." Zhao Huan said.

Uh huh~ Zhao Ji cleared his throat, concealing his fleeting embarrassment.

When Zhao Huan saw it, he secretly exclaimed that something was wrong.

Sure enough, only Zhao Ji said: "The expenditure of the forbidden army in Gyeonggi is actually only 300 million yuan."

I, Cao, Zhao Huan are speechless.

The relationship has been going on for a long time, and it turns out that the big head has been embezzled.

"Because of the continuous war in the Northwest, the national funds were not supported, so we had to embezzle the supplies of the Imperial Army in Gyeonggi. In addition..."

Zhao Ji paused for a moment, then said: "The construction of Genyue cost a lot of money, and part of it was used, and most of the labor was from the Forbidden Army of the Dianqian Division."

Zhao Huan was completely silent.

No wonder Zhao Huan argued hard in the court, but Zhao Ji was unmoved.

The so-called effective from top to bottom, Zhao Ji himself is so embarrassed to rectify the imperial army?

Therefore, even if he knew that a lot of military expenses had been embezzled, Zhao Ji could only pretend that he didn't see it.

Because it was his acquiescence.

Of course, Cai Jing and others blocked the investigation, not completely taking the blame for Zhao Ji.

After all, it is indisputable that the military pay that has already been issued will be corrupted.

If you count the Forbidden Army stationed abroad and the Xiang Army from all over the country, at least 2000 to [-] million coins have been embezzled.

Tired of heart!

Seeing Zhao Huan's dejected look, Zhao Ji was also embarrassed.

If you can't set a good example for your son as a father, you will probably feel guilty.

Thinking of the words of the two Taoist priests in the morning, Zhao Ji couldn't help asking: "Da Lang, it's only been a few days since you woke up, and you've acted very impatient, what's the reason?"

Zhao Huan was silent for a moment, and decided to disclose a little information properly, otherwise it would be really difficult to explain why the behavior changed drastically.

"When the child was in a coma, he saw many things while he was in a daze.

The most serious thing was that the Jin people went south and surrounded Kaifeng like a broken bamboo. Father, baby and many mothers, brothers and sisters were all captured by the Jin people.
