Chapter 610: Destruction

The knight immediately entered the city gate and did not slow down. Seeing this, the people began to dodge from afar

Racing a horse in the city is a serious crime, and even the princes and nobles in the capital dare not violate it. There is only one possibility that he can ride a horse and gallop in the capital.

That is, there is an important urgent report in some places. It is urgent to be rushed to the city for 800 miles. There is no need to dismount when entering the city. All pedestrians and vendors in the city must give way for it.

When the people in the city were talking, the atmosphere in the imperial study was not relaxed.

At this time, the morning court had just passed, and several important officials in the court were summoned by Emperor Chen to continue to discuss matters. At that time, the northwest was about to be in chaos. The court had just increased its troops. News from the northwest spread every day, and there would be new changes almost every day.

The news sent by Tang Ning, the acting assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel, was verified half a month ago.

The Sushen tribe led by the third prince of Wanyan tribe has gathered outside Fengzhou. The Western countries outside the pass have also frequently mobilized their troops and temporarily stationed west of Shazhou.

Because Chen State was prepared for a long time and had made wartime preparations earlier, the Wanyan tribe and the Western Regions countries did not take any action when they were afraid.

But this is only temporary. Everyone knows that the grassland and the Western Regions are waiting. When the Jiangnan chaos occurs, if they cooperate inside and outside, Chen Guo will immediately be attacked from both sides and behind the scenes.

Imperial study room, Emperor Chen looked at the Minister of Revenue and said: The soldiers were fighting for the country, and the court could not disappoint them. The military pay allocated by the Ministry of Revenue to the northwest will be doubled.

The Minister of Revenue raised his head, opened his mouth, and said: Your Majesty, the national treasury has been a little full in recent days, but in order to prepare for the food and wages in the northwest, a lot of them have been used up. If it is doubled, it will be a bit stretched...

These silvers come from my inner palace

Emperor Chen looked at him and said expressionlessly: I will give you five million taels. You must let the soldiers in the northwest use the best weapons and armor, three meals a day, meat meals, double silver rewards, and double the merits of killing the enemy...

As soon as Emperor Chen said this, not only the Minister of Revenue, but also the important officials in the court present showed unbelievable expression on their faces.

Your Majesty's frugality is obvious to everyone, and it has even reached the point of being stingy.

An emperor who even had to ask about the allocation of more than 1,000 taels of silver from the treasury would actually take out five million taels of silver from the inner palace and turn it into national use?

The national treasury has only 10 million taels per year. Not to mention how the five million taels of the inner government came from, even if the inner government really has so much money, how could His Majesty be willing to take it out?

If five million taels really hit the northwest front, not to mention that they can sweep the barbarians, at least the court will not have to worry too much about the war ahead.

The war is about silver. The soldiers have the sharpest weapons, the strongest armor, worry-free logistics, and the continuous stream of silver to smash in. What can the poor ghosts in the grassland and the Western Regions fight against them?

Even if the soldiers don't go out of the city to fight, they will just drag them to death

After the Minister of Revenue came to his senses, he bowed and said: I am thanking Your Majesty, the soldiers on the front line...

Emperor Chen made some arrangements until the sun rose to the top of the hall, and everyone retreated from the imperial study room.

Qian Shuo, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, looked at Lu Ding, the Minister of War, and said: If the salary is released from the inner government, it will be kept in the Ministry of Revenue, which is specifically used for the northwest affairs. After Lord Lu returned to the yamen, he would issue a charter earlier, so the Ministry of Revenue would also allocate the silver as soon as possible...

Lu Ding nodded, then said in surprise: Your Majesty will take five million taels this time, how can the inner palace have so much money?

Qian Shuo shook his head and said: Your Majesty's inner palace is now more abundant than the national treasury. It seems that Lord Tang has transported a lot of good things from Jiangnan this time...

Lu Ding raised his eyebrows and asked: Shouldn’t all these silver be charged to the treasury?

Qian Shuo glanced at him and said: Lord Lu can try to talk to His Majesty about this matter...

Lu Ding glanced at him and said: This seems to be a matter of your Ministry of Revenue, and it has nothing to do with our Ministry of War. What's more, although Your Majesty loves money, he does not keep money. The money is in the treasury or in the inner government, and there is no big difference...

The two chatted for a few words and left the palace gate. Suddenly a horse rushed towards the front. The knight walked to the palace gate, turned over and dismounted, ran past them, and headed straight into the palace.

Looking at the man's clothes, the few people stopped and Lu Ding said in surprise: Where did Baibali get the speed of speed?

Everyone was surprised for a moment, turned around and turned back

……

Outside the imperial study room, Zhao Yuan stood at the door, looked at the little eunuch, and asked: Why don’t I see my father?

The little eunuch was sorry: Your Highness Run, Your Majesty is dealing with government affairs, so it is not easy to disturb you. Please understand Your Highness Run...

Everyone in the palace knows that Your Majesty is in a bad mood these days and doesn't like being disturbed. If King Run is letting him in and angers His Majesty, these servants will be in trouble.

Runwang said: If I don’t disturb my father, I will just ask my father for a question

The eunuch said with a bitter face: Your Highness Run...

Wei Jian pushed the door and walked out and said: Your Majesty let Your Highness King Run in

The little eunuch breathed a sigh of relief, took a step back, and bowed: Yes

King Run walked into the imperial study room, and Emperor Chen looked at him and asked: If Yuan'er doesn't go out to play with those little girls, why are you here to come to your father?

Zhao Yuandao: In the class that the Grand Secretary gave just now, Yuan'er didn't understand several things. I want to ask for advice on the emperor

Chen Huang looked at him in surprise. The little guy who had always liked to get along with those little girls suddenly became easy to learn, which was a bit beyond his expectations.

Emperor Chen came over and asked: Where do you don’t understand?

Zhao Yuan opened the book and said: Here, there is also here...

After Emperor Chen answered him one by one, he looked at Zhao Yuan who was thinking and asked: Why did Yuan'er suddenly become more studious?

Because Yuan'er is going to become a useful person to the country, Zhao Yuan raised his head and said: This will share the worries of the father.

Emperor Chen said in surprise: Sharing the worries of the father?

Zhao Yuandao: I heard from the Grand Secretary that there are many bad people who are trying to attack us, State Chen. The father wants to govern the country and must be careful of those bad people. They get up so early and go to bed so late every day. It would be great if Yuan'er could share his worries with his father like a gentleman.

Thinking of Tang Ning, Emperor Chen remembered the incident in Jiangnan. Although Tang Ning never disappointed him, he was still a little worried.

When he looked at Zhao Yuan again, he showed a look of relief on his face and said: Your husband is a very capable person. Yuan'er should ask the husband for advice.

Zhao Yuan nodded repeatedly and said: The people Yuan'er admires the most are the husband and father!

When he said this, his face was full of expectations, and even his eyes were shining. Emperor Chen was stunned and asked with a smile: What do you admire us?

My mother said that she could not tell others that she studied hard to be the emperor to marry the Wang family’s sister, the Bai family, and the Zhang family’s sister. She could not say that what he envied most was that there were so many concubines in his father’s harem and so many beautiful teachers’ wives in his husband’s family…

Zhao Yuan raised his head and said seriously: I admire my father for his country so well, and I admire his talent and knowledge...

Emperor Chen smiled and was about to speak when a little eunuch hurried in and said loudly: Your Majesty, Jiangnan Good News!

Good news? After being stunned, Emperor Chen looked happy and said: Hurry, hurry up!

After a moment, Emperor Chen looked at the person kneeling in the hall and said: Nian!

The man raised his head and clasped his fists and said: Go back to Your Majesty, a thief in Jiangnan committed rebellion. Now the leader of the rebellion has been quelled. The prince of the Qianwang of Liang was killed by Lord Tang under the sword of Shangfang. One of his followers was also rectified on the spot. More than a dozen remaining evil people from the Wanyan tribe were captured and escorted back to Beijing soon...

The situation in Chen State is now grim, and Jiangnan is the key to breaking the deadlock

The rebellion in Jiangnan was quelled, and the State of Chen had no worries. The grassland and the Western Regions did not dare to act rashly anymore, and the crisis in the northwest could be resolved.

Emperor Chen stood up and couldn't help laughing: OK, OK Ah!
