After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

Lin Ruhai's work in Taiyuan is full of enthusiasm and enthusiasm.

On the other side of the capital, King Zhongjing's collection of debts was blocked step by step, without any progress.

No matter whether the family has money or not, and no matter what the reason for borrowing the money is, once the money is in your pocket, you will inevitably feel pain when you want to take it out.

As a result, all the officials here began to cry for poverty, and there was a censor over there, saying that King Zhongjing persecuted the courtiers in this way, which was simply discrediting the saint, and asked the saint to punish him severely to set the record straight.

The saint held this stack of impeachment memorials, and was laughed angrily by this group of shameless people.

——Why did King Zhongjing move the accounts of the account department?

That's the mandate of the saint.

In other words, what King Zhongjing does is the meaning of a sage.Where is King Zhongjing impeached by this group of censors?Obviously he is the emperor!

Pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, insinuating.

Don't they think that if they don't hit their faces directly, they will touch their noses and recognize it?

The saint sneered: It seems that some people still can't recognize the situation clearly, and can't understand my temperament!

He immediately let people pass King Zhong Jing, Jia Jing and others into the palace, his eyes were cold and frightening.

When the sage was a prince, he was a noble and generous prince.

But since he made up his mind to remove his father from the throne, he has changed.

Of course, the things such as dignity and arrogance that have been engraved in her bones since she was a child will not change.What the sage changed was only his generous character.

Nor does it mean that the saint has become a mean and ungrateful person.

He still has tolerance for his subjects, but there is a premise that he should not challenge his bottom line.Otherwise, he has a chance to let you know who is the right and proper master in this world!

And these refusal to pay back the money indirectly hindered him from purging the court, and even the courtiers who benefited the world, obviously touched the saint's scales.

Some methods are not bright enough after all, he didn't want to use them at first.But since these people don't know how to restrain themselves, don't blame him for being cruel!

King Zhongjing came soon, and Duke Ning's mansion was far away from the palace, so Jia Jing was not as fast as King Zhongjing.

Looking at the sixth brother whose brows were furrowed tightly and his lips turned pale due to anxiety, the saint quickly asked someone to serve a cup of Kuding tea to relieve the fire, and comforted him: "Don't worry, I can't fix them yet?"

King Zhongjing took a sip of tea and said angrily, "They are so bold, they are all at the mercy of the old sage!"

The saint has always known that King Zhongjing has a lot of complaints about the old saint.

One is because the old saint has always ignored him, and the other is because the old saint loves power and tosses the saint.

In King Zhongjing's heart, if the saint hadn't suddenly woke up and made a decisive decision, the two brothers might not have ended up.

But the old sage had obviously abdicated and lost his appearance, but he still refused to settle down. He took the opportunity to add obstacles to the sage, and made King Zhongjing even more unhappy.

"Didn't they keep saying that they were all old saints? Didn't the old saints clamor to build another garden?" King Zhongjing grinned, "Back then, the Zhen family showed their loyalty to the old saint and took the initiative to pay for the money. Now, they are also It's time to show your loyalty to the old saint."

The saint was originally annoyed, but he was amused by his words, he smiled and shook his head and said: "You, after all, you are still too impatient."

Compared with his father, his younger brother is simply two extremes.

His father is a typical shameless person, and his younger brother is too aggressive. When necessary, he only wants to benefit and not lose face.

Although the sage has only been the emperor for three or four years, he also knows that these two personalities are actually not the qualities that an emperor should have.

It's just that one is his father, which he can't control, and the other is the younger brother he raised since he was a child, and he couldn't bear to break his rigidity.

It's simply that his father can't do any big things now, and the younger brother just needs to teach him slowly.And before he taught it, he was quite willing to deal with the aftermath of his younger brother.

The two talked for a while, and Jia Jing arrived.After the ceremony between the two parties, Jia Jing asked straight to the point: "The sage is summoned suddenly, what's the matter?"

In fact, Jia Jing had already guessed what was going on in his heart.It's nothing more than cheating who doesn't want to pay back the money, so that those who want to pay back don't dare to be the first bird.

King Zhongjing snorted coldly, lowered his head and drank his tea with a dark face.

The saint glanced at him helplessly, and said to Jia Jing, "If you think about it, you've already guessed it."

Jia Jing smiled and said: "Although I am dull, I also know that the only thing that can bother the saint recently is that one thing."

The sage sighed: "Just this one thing, it's enough to cause me a lot of trouble."

Jia Jing persuaded: "The newcomers promoted by the sage are slowly being used, and those people won't be able to work for a long time. Why should the sage get angry because of these grasshoppers after autumn?"

The saint said: "Why don't I know? It's just that the power of Oara in the north has changed, and the new Khan wants to drive his troops to the south in order to establish his prestige. The border is not peaceful, so naturally he will fight. It's just that there is not much money in the treasury. , but there are many IOUs. When the Rivala knocks on the border, the border guards will not have enough food and grass, what can they use to resist foreign enemies? Relying on the northwest wind?"

Speaking of this, the saint couldn't help but sneered: "I have stated my interests twice in the court, but those people are still pushing back and forth, just crying poorly, talking inside and outside, they all want me to take my inner nuns to the top Meaning. This is taking me for a fool!"

Jia Jing opened his mouth, but swallowed back what he almost blurted out.

He wanted to say: He is willing to repay the 60 taels of silver owed to his nephew, and he can also mobilize some veteran nobles to pay it back together.

However, thinking that the sage is not willing to compromise with the courtiers at all, if he pays back the money at this time, wouldn't it make those ministers feel more at ease to renege on their debts?

King Zhongjing sneered, "A group of blood-sucking leeches!"

He could see the faces of these courtiers clearly, they didn't care how long the Great Xia Dynasty lasted.

Anyway, even if the dynasty changes, officials like them who have mastered the knowledge can still mix in the new dynasty.

The big deal is two generations of silence, but the Yu family is not hurt at all.

Of course, there are also those in the court who regard the world as their own responsibility, have the common people in their hearts, and are willing to die with their lives.

But this kind of righteous people are really too few, and most of the saints are surrounded by people who look up to them.

If people like Jia Jing and Xu Deng stand on the same standpoint as saints, they will naturally be more useful than those who are upright.

But if the positions are contrary or contradictory, it will be particularly disgusting and difficult.

Because, no one knows what these people will do to satisfy their own interests.

The sage smiled slightly, and said to the two: "Don't worry about collecting the bills. The sixth brother has worked hard these days, so let's rest for a few days. Jia Qing, I have decided to cancel all the IOUs owed by my inner nuns."

Jia Jing was startled, cupped his hands and said, "I'll go back and prepare the silver."

"No need." The sage stopped him, "It's better than silver. Tai_zu didn't intend to ask for it. You don't have to pay it back. I just write off the account here."

Jia Jing frowned: "However, it is only right and proper to pay back the debt. If the sage revokes Nenu's IOU but does not ask the minister to pay back the money, wouldn't those who have borrowed silver from the treasury have more reason not to pay it back?"

The sage smiled very gently, but Jia Jing felt that the temperature of Qianqing Palace suddenly dropped.

Just listen to the sage say gently: "They will pay back."

Jia Jing's eyelids twitched, and he felt that the sage wanted to use a bigger move.

He hurriedly said: "Saint, there are many people who want to pay it back, but they are afraid that they will be the first ones."

The sage gave him a heavy look, and said calmly, "I'll give you three days."

"Thank you Saint for your generosity." Jia Jing wiped his sweat.

It has to be said that people are forced out.

In Jia Jingfang's alarmist warning, those officials who were afraid of being the first bird didn't care too much, and hurriedly went to the Ministry of Households to pay back the money with the money they had collected long ago.

Then, they discovered: it turned out that his family was not the only one rushing to pay back the money, which is really great!

These people are all smart people with extremely sensitive political sense. After getting back the IOU at the household department together, they made an appointment to book a table in Taibai Building.

Then, after three glasses of wine, they continued to chat with each other.

Then, they found that their views were the same.

——With the temperament of today's saints, after so many days of enduring, there must be a big move waiting in the future.

Nowadays, they don't care about face as much as the old saints, they should hurry up and return the money quickly, so as not to become the chicken who kills chickens and monkeys!

There are those who are smart, and there are naturally those who think they are confident.

——After all, the old sage lent them the money at their discretion, and the old sage is still there now. With the old sage's generosity, as long as they go to Shoukang Palace to cry, how can they pay it back?

It's not that they can't afford to pay it back, it's just that after the repayment is over, the whole family will have to tighten their belts and live a tight life for a long time.

After getting used to the good times, who wants to suffer?

Three days later, the sage actually closed all the accounts of those old nobles without paying a single penny, which made them extremely dissatisfied and complained.

——Everyone has borrowed money, why should we only forgive theirs and not ours?

Some people even ridiculed the sage secretly, saying that the sage relied on honors and nobles to get to the top, but now he is too big to lose his tail and has to compromise.

It didn't take long for the nobles like Jia Jing to be labeled as traitors by the officials, and they were still traitors who could almost stand shoulder to shoulder with Wang Mang and Huo Guang.

Many nobles were a little terrified, and gathered at Jia Jing's house tremblingly, discussing whether to give all the silver to the saint, the worst is that life will be a little bit harder.

They were really terrified to be targeted by the officials in this way.

It's no wonder that they are so restless. After the world is at peace, these nobles are feared by the officials.

Those young and energetic officials who want to make a name for themselves will use nobles to operate.It seems that once you join Xungui, you can show how pure and noble you are.

Although the nobles feel disgusted, but the saints can't stop the group of sour scholars, what else can they do?

Endure it!

As time goes by, it has caused Xungui to feel weak at first, no matter whether he takes advantage or not.

Jia Jing rolled his eyes directly, and asked back: "Don't you all think that if we carry the money over there with great fanfare, this group of officials will disappear?"

Xungui, who had been alienated from him because he passed the imperial examination, gathered together again because of the money owed.

Of course, there is also a large part of the reason for this, because the sage has successfully ascended the throne, and Jia Jing, as the new emperor's close minister, has become hot again.

The truth of this, Jia Jing is very clear.

But Tai Shigong also said: The prosperity of the world is all for profit; the world is full of hustle and bustle, all for profit.

These nobles were united at the beginning because they had common interests.Later, they alienated him because he took a different path from them.It is still because of common interests to surround them again now.

When Jia Jing said a word, these people were discouraged.

——The pissing nature of those officials, they are too clear.These people are just rafts, and the main purpose of the officials is to compete with the saints.
