Old and Beautiful in the Red Chamber

Chapter 26: The Grand Master Leads the Jia Family to Turn into Traitors in Seconds

I don't know if the coffin boards of the two generations of Dukes were overturned. The current Mrs. Shi, Mrs. Shi, almost used the coffin boards - she was so angry with her family.

Jia Amnesty is committing suicide!

The old lady knew that Jia She was in a very bad mood these days, and she herself was also in a complicated mood. No, in order not to irritate the eldest son, she knew that the boss had sent people to surround the accounting room and the warehouse. The old lady approached people from the Wang family, but the old lady didn't do anything—she thought that the boss was afraid that his property would be transferred away, so he watched over and waited to divide the family. Unexpectedly, the boss will be so crazy that he will poach his own corner at the expense of himself and others!

70 taels of silver! ! !Not seven taels and 70 taels! ! !The Jia family can't make ends meet now, it's a source of non-renewable resources that cannot be easily moved! ! !That's nearly half of the cash in the mansion today! ! !Every cent is of great use to her! ! !Just in the blink of an eye, it's gone! ! !

It was too late when the old lady got the news, the elder had already gone out with the silver, maybe it had already been handed over to the household department!Then the old lady became seriously ill again, this time for real!

The old lady thought in great pain, why didn't she stuff this bastard back in her stomach and suffocate to death?She often had this idea, and now it is even more clear.

The problem of money is still a trivial matter, the old lady thought sadly, the bigger problem is how the Jia family should behave in the future!Although there was no agreement not to pay back the money, the four kings and eight fathers are very clear in their hearts. Thinking about the achievements of the past years and thinking about the law not to blame the public, they have no intention of paying back the money at all!And now?There is a traitor among them!Does the Jia family still have the nerve to talk about the four major families of the four kings and eight males?

In other words, Tai Zu, the founder of this dynasty, was born as an out-and-out farmer. Natural disasters occurred frequently in the previous dynasty. This is how Dazhu joined the rebel army.From the very beginning, Tai Zu was just a small soldier who was just trying to make a living. When Li Chuangwang and their goal became to grab the emperor, Tai Zu, a former migrant worker with no ambitions, still only thought about how to build land and grow land. More food so that I will not starve to death, and my brothers will not starve to death. Sweet potatoes (potatoes), sweet beans (corns), potatoes, etc. are widely planted in the hands of Tai. Attracted many insightful people.After coming and going, more and more sites, more and more people obey him, and more and more people need him to solve the problem of food.It forced Tai Zu to step forward and continue to fight for territory.Later, Li Chuang failed, and Li Chuang's soldiers joined Taizu's side in order to eat; officials and people left over from the previous Ming Dynasty, including the royal family, also joined Taizu's side in order to survive; They were burned, killed, and looted. In order to prevent everyone from having a place to eat, Taizu drove the Qing soldiers out of the Central Plains, and tried hard to get the Qing soldiers and Mongols’ territories to his family to plant land and herd sheep... Finally Tai Zu, who thought he was just a farmer and only wanted to lead everyone to live well, became the founding emperor in a daze, and named the country "Tian" [From here, it can be seen that Tai Zu really loves the profession of farmers Shen Shen], changed Shuntianfu to Shenjing and established the capital.

Tai Zu, who became the emperor, still had a simple philistine mind, and was reluctant to spend money, that is, the four kings and eight princes who founded the country. The destruction and the last madness when the Qing soldiers withdrew from the capital. The better houses in Shenjing were destroyed. According to common sense, the emperor should let the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Industry repair and build them for everyone to reward the mansion—but Tai Zu I can't bear to spend money!He didn't even repair the palace much!So Tai Zu discussed with the brothers, the house will be your own property in the future, you can build it yourself!I can still give you some grace!Then, the four kings and eight princes all built their own houses, and they are all honored as "made XXX". Even if there is no title in the future, the family property does not need to be returned to the public, and Tai Zu also granted the four kings and eight princes. The imperial plaque at the gate remains unchanged, unless the plaque is taken away for a major mistake in house raiding.

This is the fundamental reason why Rongning and Ningfu can stand on the plaque of the Duke's Mansion with the title of general. Otherwise, the censors in Shenjing are not blind. They can't see such a blatant violation of the system. Sieve it!

Probably it is the opposite of everything, Tai. Zu is so economical at home. After he came to power, he will recuperate in all aspects. Let everyone work hard to cultivate people, strive for more people, and don’t spend unnecessary money. After being an emperor for most of his life, he will go out when he is old. Played once, but Gaozong was a ostentatious person who loved to spend money. He was depressed for a long time when his father was alive. When he came to the stage, there were more than 50 people, and he let himself go like a young man, repairing the palace, building palaces and other courtyards, A large sum of money was rewarded to his subordinates... Fortunately, Emperor Gaozong had a good way of making money, and if he spent his own money, he would be complained about, so he would steal it from others!The Manchu and Mongolian tribes on the poor grassland were planning to take advantage of Taizu's death to jointly invade. They were beaten by Gaozong and a group of people, and they were driven north to west. Gaozong's treasury and private treasury were also He became more and more full, and he was also generous to his subordinates. Some poor officials borrowed money from the treasury, and he borrowed them all.

After Gaozong came to the emperor, the emperor is an excellent emperor, but he is also a master who loves to enjoy and play. It is said that the emperor is a hyperactive child whose wife is about to give birth. In addition to continuing to fight in Gaozong's footsteps, people also play everywhere, going to this courtier's house today, and going to that courtier's place tomorrow-on the one hand, the ministers feel honored to take over, and on the other hand, they compare each other in various ways. It costs a lot to save face, and sometimes you just have no money, what should you do?Borrow from the treasury!What should I do if I don't want outsiders to know that I actually have a lot of money?Borrow from the treasury to show everyone how shy you are in your pocket!What should I do if others have borrowed but I have not borrowed? Is it because I have less income and do not fit in with the group?Borrow money from the treasury like everyone else!

What should I do if I borrowed the money and sometimes I can’t pay it back temporarily?The emperor rubbed his chin, he couldn't force his subjects too much, he could pay in installments!I have paid in installments, is there still pressure to borrow money?As a result, the few who borrowed as much as they borrowed and repaid in time during Emperor Gaozong's reign turned into a large pile of borrowed money who suddenly cried poorly during Emperor Gaozong's reign, borrowing more and paying back more.And the emperor is more talkative than Gaozong, borrow more?It's okay, pay it back slowly!Can't afford to pay without installments for the time being?It's okay, I owe it this month first, and I will pay it back later!The household department feels that the amount of borrowed money is too large and embarrassing and does not want to borrow?Do you know who is borrowing money?Some of his mismanaged sons!It is his loyal and over-spending important ministers at home! !Will these be shameless in the future? ! !Of course you have to borrow it!Everyone is borrowing more and more money. From installment payment to procrastination, the household department will cry poorly when it is urged. You borrow today and I will borrow tomorrow, and then the treasury is owed a lot of money-this is still the first transfer from the prince. After arriving at the household department, I saw the disadvantages and deliberately controlled them, otherwise the numbers would be even more terrifying!

Then, the emperor finally suffered a lot - he didn't know what his sons and ministers wanted to do with borrowed money!He thought they borrowed it because they really had no money. Who knew they were digging money from the treasury to make trouble!He originally thought that the prince was entrusted to the throne when he was a baby, and he was talented and stable.Those sons and their supporters have also borrowed money from the treasury for financial support!Then the emperor tragically watched the fratricide, and suffered heavy losses afterwards-these people borrowed money and used up their own recruiting and buying horses. Will they have no money after success?If it is not successful, it will be useless to keep the money!Sure enough, after that, those people were ransacked and didn't get much cash. They died or became common people and they didn't have the ability to go on. ╮(╯▽╰)╭

Afterwards, the emperor had a hard time learning from it, and the treasury was not allowed to borrow money!

The treasury was not allowed to borrow money, and the emperor also reminded other borrowers that they should pay back the money-but some people really didn't come out at that time, because they borrowed too much money!The children and grandchildren are not able to become talents, and the expenditure is large and the income is small, so there is not much surplus to be squeezed out!I can squeeze it out but my family will have to live a miserable life of embarrassment and poverty. I really don’t want to—some people can’t pay it back, some people don’t want to pay it back, and some people want to pay it back but they don’t dare to be the first to pay back the money because they care about other people’s reactions... Especially the older generation of meritorious families, everyone is in the same breath, and they don't move!If the Ministry of Finance dared to force them, they dared to shamelessly cry, make trouble, and hang themselves!

The emperor himself didn't want to bear the notoriety of persecuting his courtiers, and after he got older and his son died a large number, he became more and more soft-hearted, so the matter of repaying the money was left alone.

The nobles are relieved!Jia Amnesty, how dare he run to pay back the money by himself!Back then, his father, Jia Daishan, had borrowed money and even borrowed a lot of money to get along with the group, but he still didn't pay it back!Back then, the old lady made a fool of herself in order not to pay back the money. The man died, her son was useless, and the family had no money left to go to the old in-laws' house and cry at the concubine's place!All in order to keep up with everyone's footsteps, okay?It's not that I have no money! !I want you to be troublesome! ! !

Jia Amnesty paid back the money on behalf of the Rongguo Mansion, what about the other four kings and eight princes?What about friends who borrowed money following in the footsteps of the four kings and eight princes?Do I have to pay it back or continue to owe it? ?If you pay it back now, would you think that they defaulted on the money before they were rich and deliberately embarrass him?So, should we form a group to kill Jia She first? ? ?

The old lady absolutely does not want to part ways with other old relatives, she must not let everyone think that the behavior of the boss is her own gesture, so, let's break up with the boss first!
