The Little First Grand Secretary in My House

Because the manufacturing room is next to the old mansion of Wu Ge, what is going on inside is very clear here.

Hearing a strong laughter from inside, several Zhongshushe looked at each other, Feng Qing stood up and came to He You's side.

"The younger brother saw that He was very close to this son, and he didn't know what to say. It was inappropriate to talk about it." Seeing He Youmulu asked the question, Feng Qingcai said: "Brother He is the first person next to Master Fu, now here is this Boy, look at this momentum, I am afraid that Brother He will be in front of him in the future.

Knowing that Feng Qing is a villain, and knowing that he was provocative, He You still felt a little uncomfortable.

However, this discomfort will certainly not be revealed, so he just smiled and said: "It's all up to you."

"Naturally, it depends on his own ability. Who doesn't know that Brother He has been in the house for the longest time and is most trusted by the secondary assistant. But at this moment, the real ability can't withstand the villain's tendency to become inflamed, this kid can coax the old man Such a pleasure must have its own skills. The younger brother felt that He He still had to be more attentive, so that Luo Han, who was many years old, would eventually become a Buddha, but was blocked by someone. "

If He You didn't know that Feng Qing could not and would not dare to ridicule herself in person, he really thought that the other party had deliberately ridiculed him.

In this system, the world's two-room Chinese scholars are all competing against each other. Not only because it is a close minister, but also in a key position, the status is exceptionally high, but also because this is a gilded land.

Because of its aloof status in North Korea and China, the Cabinet had some interactions with the six departments and departments, and these Zhongshushe people in charge of running errands were able to meet many high-ranking officials during this time. All are important officials of the six ministries and divisions, which are essential resources for leaving the cabinet in the future.

There are not many people in Zhongshushe who finally entered the Zhiwenyuan Pavilion. The minimum number of Zhongshushe people who are released from the cabinet also starts with the Wupinguan, and they are all in a key position.

Of course, the premise is that if you can let it go, someone will lift it.

This is also the main reason why these Chinese scholars would each lean on the top of the mountain. With the elders' promotion, they can do more with less.

He You spent six years in the cabinet, with the longest time and the oldest seniority. Over the years, after seeing countless colleagues leaving the cabinet, they have either entered the six ministries to become important officials, or become officials of the guarding party, and they are still a seven-ranking scholar.

Everyone wants to go out, but it has been in this position for a long time. Who wants to be a errand forever, does not want to be the master.

Anxiety is naturally anxious, but the old man of the cabinet also said that the first assistant did not retreat, and major events were unsuccessful.

Relying on these, He You persisted for six years and has not seen her head so far.

Does this one have to cross himself?

"Thanks for Feng Zhongshu's concern, doing his best with his heart, and thinking about it is useless." He You smiled faintly.

Feng Qing glanced at him, and when he saw that the other party did not want to talk anymore, he laughed a little: "I'm just not worth it for Brother He, when I say more."

Having said that, he hurried away, leaving He You's eyes tumbling for a long time.

Xue Tingyan then visited Yang Chonghua and others.

The elders of the courts treat him as salty and light, obviously not willing to make friends.

The only one missing is Xu Shoufu.

Xu Shoufu is too old. Today, he does not come to the cabinet every day, not even to the dynasty. It's just that His Majesty has given such a glorious favor, and no one else can say anything.

Xue Tingyan's days in the cabinet began like this.

There are so many trivial things in the cabinet every day. The elders issued a sentence, or there is something that needs to be negotiated with the six departments. These naturally cannot be the elders coming out of the cabinet.

Every day, Xue Tingyan drafted various proclamations, or rushed to various ministries to transfer the performances and documents. Every day I go into the palace at dawn, and I can only come back when it is dark. After I came back, I just fell back and slept. I was really tired.

The key is that this kind of tiredness cannot be evaded, and no one wants to shirk.

Let you run is to value you, if you let you squat in the two rooms to do some work like writing, if you do n’t see an outsider for a few months, then you have to cry with tears. What else to do in the bookstore, just go to another place to be an official. The Hanlin Academy is idle. I did n’t see those Hanlins breaking their heads and thinking about it.

Days passed by day by day, and it was September in a flash.

As soon as it entered September, the sky had cooled down, but there was no leisure in the cabinet, but instead he was getting busy.

September is the season of harvest. At this time, it is time for all localities to pay taxes, taxes, and grains to Beijing. This year, households are so poor that they are waiting for this treasury to fill the treasury.

The cabinet is busy, the six departments are also busy, and the entire September is spent in a busy time, and finally in late October, finally everything is down, it is time to take a break, but this time is also the time for the annual household inventory .

What do you count?

Naturally, it is to count the various revenues and expenditures, surpluses and deficits of the court this year.

Every time this time, the household department is busy with up and down. Not only the Hubu, but this time is also the time when the cabinet loves to fight.

The old cabinets are also ministers and ministers, and if any one runs out of money, it will be discussed. Discuss every day, everybody talks up, the people above talk, and the people below run everywhere.

Xue Tingyan wore a dark-blue official uniform and a thin jacket with cotton quilt inside. He had just returned from the Ministry of Industry. He could not ride a car on this road. He ran down with two legs and was full of steam and forehead. There was also a thin sweat.

He lifted the curtain and walked in from outside, bringing in a cold wind.

Now there are also one or two vassals beside him. When he saw his return, some people took the initiative to make a conversation, and some people made tea with him.

Xue Tingyan sat in a chair and took a cup of tea after taking the tea. Fang said: "This ghost weather is so cold that it scares people to death, but it makes them panic. It was also surprising that his throat was straight and smoking after running down."

"Isn't it what Xue Zhongshu ate last night that would make up for it?" Cheng Wei, who was also a pardoner in the room, laughed and teased.

"Go to you, I don't know what tonic, I don't know." Xue Tingyan scolded.

"Not to mention, it should have snowed at this time in previous years, but this year I only saw cold but no snow." Cai Guang interjected.

At this time, Shao Houming walked in from the outside and whispered: "Several old cabinets are noisy again."

Hearing the words, several people looked at each other with a helpless look.

Cai Guang asked: "What's the noise this time?"

"The Ministry of Military Affairs accounted for more than a million or two silvers this year than last year. Without the seal on the side of the household department, Feng Gelao got into trouble with Yang Gelao. Both Xu Shoufu and Wu Gelao came out to speak, Feng Ge The veteran is arguing about why the Ministry of Industry exceeded the signing, but the Ministry of Military Affairs did not sign it.

Such things have been commonplace these days.

The court had no money, and the household had no money. In the past years, there was no limit on the cost of various places. All ministries and departments lacked money and went to the household branch. When it was time to actually use the money, the household ministry was so anxious that it was blind.

Yang Chonghua was also annoyed. In the past few years, he invited Jiacheng Emperor to change the regulations.

At the end of the year, the households accounted for the revenue and expenditure, and each department also reported the expenses for next year in advance, and the detailed amount was handed over to the households for accounting. If they can pass, the household department will sign the seal. If they can't pass, call back to redo.

In the following year, if the ministries overrun again, they are responsible for them, regardless of the households.

This one-size-fits-all approach is obviously not good, after all, how can everything be so precise. But Emperor Jiacheng agreed, and there was no way for each department or division.

However, there are policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom. No, every time when accounting is done at the end of the year, everyone is reporting more, reporting more, reporting more, not reporting more, and reporting more.

If it ’s one or two, it ’s all the same, and every year a big play is staged. Tossing to the end, it was all the elders who came together to deal with it, and even made it to the emperor Jiacheng.

However, the purpose of Hube dumping the pan is to do it, from being undertaken by oneself, to everyone to come out and discuss together. This is probably Yang Chonghua's own purpose.

"If you go on like this, it is estimated that it will be discussed again." Cheng Wei said.

Although the others didn't nod, they thought so.

Sure enough, as Feng Chengbao fell out of the door, as expected, he went to the Jiacheng Emperor, and in the afternoon, the Qingqing Palace heard the word, and tomorrow's court will discuss it.

Every time the court discusses, the cabinet will send a Chinese scholar to attend the class.

In the past years, He Youchong was enough, and now Xue Tingyan is a big celebrity in front of the elders, and he naturally chooses others.

Half an hour before the court meeting, headed by Xu Shoufu, the old cabinet members left the lobby of the cabinet and went to the Qianqing Palace.

Accompanying him was Xue Tingyan.

Xue Tingyan naturally saw that He You's face was not good, but Wu Gelao was willing to give him a face, Xu Shoufu had always been irrelevant, but it was not him.

When they arrived at the Qianqing Palace, the inner attendant led the people in.

In the East Part Hall of Qianqing Palace, more than 20 articles were divided into two rows below, lined up in a row. There is a chair behind each bill, and there is also a bill at the end, but it is much narrower and shorter than those bills, but it is the seat of the Zhongshushe person responsible for recording.

In the middle of the first place is the dragon chair of the dragon case, which is the location of the emperor Jiacheng.

Over time, a clerk wearing a vermillion robe walked in from the door and sat one by one. They greeted each other until the inner servant came to the hall and screamed that His Majesty arrived, and these voices were quiet.

Everyone stood up and looked respectfully at Emperor Jiacheng who stepped through the side door.

Not only was Emperor Jiacheng, but also Zheng Ancheng and Lin Miao who were on the sidelines. Lin Miao also appeared as a Chinese scholar who served on the side.

Emperor Jiacheng came to the Dragon case and sat down, looking around the ministers below, before saying: "Sit down, many of you are old. I don't know when it will end, so I sit down and talk."

"Thank you Emperor Shengen, Your Majesty."

As usual, after praising merits, the ministers sat down one after another. Xue Tingyan also sat down, sitting on his special seat.

I have to say that this case is too short, and the chair is too stiff. The height is not low or the height is too low. It is like a castrated horse. It is not very comfortable to sit up.

However, Xue Tingyan was unmoved, spreading the paper and ink as usual, waiting for it to start.

"Let's get started." The first place, said Jiacheng Emperor.

Xu Shoufu as the first assistant, Ting Yi naturally came to preside over him. He looked at his colleagues and coughed and said, "Every year, every department and department fights because of the silver and silver issue, and they even make troubles under his majesty. I ’m incompetent to be a courtier. I ’ll say it ’s useless, or according to the usual practice, everyone will report the actual cost of each ministry and division. Everyone will discuss it. Let ’s talk about it again. But there is His Majesty here, so you do n’t have to worry about who is biased and who helped. ”

Afterwards, each department and department spoke about their respective needs in silver, which item and what amount was specific.

There are records on the side of the Hube, and unreasonable places are also picked out in advance. When hearing any unreasonable places, the assistant of the Hube, Zuo Shilang, Peng Junyi, filed the original complaint on behalf of the Hube.

When he arrived at the Ministry of Military Affairs, it was originally caused by Feng Chengbao, the minister of the Ministry of Military Affairs. He was filled with indignation and stared at Yang Chonghua. The Ministry of Defense speculates that the gold men will definitely commit crimes next year. Since they have to make some preparations in advance, increasing military expenditure is a top priority. "

Everyone did not speak, and the emperor Jiacheng said: "The military service of the country is indeed the key."

Yang Chonghua stood up and said: "This increase is one million or two dollars. Every year in Dachang, my tax and all of you and everyone here know that the family department can't afford this money. It's not that the family department deliberately made things difficult. I promise now that there is no money afterwards, it is better to explain in advance and make other preparations. "

"Then why the Ministry of Industry said to build a river channel, if you want to increase it by one million or two, your household will have money?" Feng Chengbao sneered.

"The Yellow River was diverted to harm the people on both sides of the bank, and part of the canal was poisoned. The canal is the lifeblood of my Dachang. The grain is transferred from the south to the north and the food is paid at the border. Canal. If you do n’t build a river, you ca n’t cure the canal. When Master Feng sits at home and has no food to eat, you know that the money spent by the Ministry of Industry is worthless. ”Without mentioning Yang Chonghua, Ma Qi said.

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu Ma Qi has always been silent, but when it comes to such matters, he never speaks. The knife cuts into the heart, making Feng Chengbao look red and green.

However, Feng Chengbao did not dare to say that even if more than half of the people in the capital did not have any food, he would not lose his food. He could only stay in his heart and reiterated the importance of Bianguan's military situation.

"This is put aside in advance, and continue to discuss."

Since Emperor Jiacheng made a speech, everyone could only skip it for the time being, let's talk about other ministries first.

After a general discussion, I was able to discuss a ugly Yinmao at that time, and all came up with a solution on the spot. There is only a gap of nearly three million two, which cannot be filled for the time being.

Among them are the increased military expenditures of the Ministry of Warfare, the use of the Ministry of Industry to manage rivers, and some other bits and pieces of various divisions and departments, which seem insignificant, but they are all indispensable.

Three million twos, the annual taxation of the Dachang Dynasty can add up to seven or eight million twos. The local government intercepts the local needs, and nearly 60% of the remaining funds are transferred to Beijing, but only four million or less. Now that such a large gap is lacking, the court can't afford the money and delete which one, in the mouth of these ministers, all shake the foundation of the society.

It can be concluded that the court has no money to pay, what should I do?

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly solidified.

It was cold, and the charcoal was burnt in the hall, making it warm like spring, but now it makes people feel bored and panicked.

Emperor Jiacheng didn't speak, and he was very silent at this time. Of course, if he didn't have a gaze that contained a lot of strength, it would make people more comfortable.

"Why didn't you say? Ming Taizu set a tax on more than 8 million hectares in the world, and collected 30 million stone of grain. How much money can I get in return? Compared with the previous dynasty, Dachang has not lost an inch of land. Why is it that the annual tax cannot be levied by this year, even if it is levied, it will not be able to make ends meet. Calculate this account for me, why is it unable to make ends meet. "

In the silence, Emperor Jiacheng's voice sounded like a thunder.

No one expected that at this court meeting, he would be so crucial that he almost dabbled in the core of the essential problems facing Dachang today.

Sitting at the bottom, Xue Tingyan carefully looked up and looked at the faces of all the officials present, and then turned his eyes to the unclear Jiacheng Emperor on the dragon chair.

This is the emperor with iron-blooded wrist, intending to declare war on the ministers?
