"Hahahaha, happy, happy."
In the imperial study, bursts of laughter erupted at this time, and Chongzhen laughed while can't help but keep slamming the book case with his fist.
"Lu Aiqing, you're too much of a loss."
Wang Chengen stood behind him and smirked.
Lu Hanqiang looked at Chongzhen's unattractive smile, and he was very helpless.
After Chongzhen laughed for a while, his voice became lower and lower until it was inaudible, and then there was a dead silence in the study.
After a long time, Chongzhen raised his head and sighed helplessly: "Our ministers, are you really poor like this, is it really this kind of performance for our gentlemen to treat disaster relief donations, is it true that they flaunt it all day long, family affairs, state affairs, everything in the world, is this how they care, is it that the Ming Dynasty has been raising scholars for three hundred years, is this the result" Chongzhen became more and more excited, and finally slammed his fists on the bookcase, and his voice had turned poignant: "Could it be that their conscience is eaten by dogs?"
Lu Hanqiang and Wang Chengen hurriedly advised: "Long live" but they didn't know what to say.
Chongzhen stood and looked out the window blankly, but his eyes were not focused.
I was stunned for a long time, but I could only sit down.
"Aiqing, just now the fundraising royal history came in to report, today a day, just a few petty officials donated more than ten or twenty taels of silver, and those big guys with fat brains, but none of them moved, and they shamelessly cried poor, the content of the fold is simply miserable, does the dynasty rely on a group of rice flowers to govern?"
As he spoke, his face suddenly turned bloody, and he suddenly stood up: "Decree Shuntianfu Yin Liu Zongzhou, Decree Metropolitan Procuratorate, Decree Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, jointly run errands, copy those poor ministers according to their names, and confiscate all the excess property according to his own words, and exhaustively investigate the origin of their property.
Chongzhen suddenly gritted his teeth and spoke.
When Lu Hanqiang heard it, he had to commit this fiery temper again, and even the word unknown origin of the property came out, but this is not good, such an indiscriminate punishment will force things to the worse side, and at that time, the matter of the emperor and the minister's separation from morality will be staged ten years in advance, and the Ming Dynasty will collapse faster.
So he hurriedly stepped forward to stop this mess of decrees: "Long live, if you really carry out these wills, I don't think anyone will be able to go to court tomorrow."
Moreover, if the punishment is opened, it is equivalent to no punishment, and when the time comes, how to punish the heavier than this, at that time, the responsibility is not over, the punishment is not victorious, and the subordinates have no integrity, and in order to avoid the punishment, they will be pretentious and deceitful, and at that time, the country will not be a country. ” Wang Chengen hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Long live, what Lord Lu said is yes, the eunuch case has almost emptied the court, and if you want to chase the origin of the officials' family wealth, it will completely cut off the officials' progress, and we still have to use them to govern the country, don't do this." ” After gasping for a while, Chongzhen sat down again, staring at the ceiling caisson without saying a word.
Lu Hanqiang took a small step forward and whispered: "People are selfish, even gentlemen, and most of the Beijing officials can only rely on Yulu to live, and my country's court Yulu is too low, and there are poor officials who eat grain." ” "Then ask the local magistrates."
"Local officials can raise some of them, but those adults will definitely apportionment the amount raised exponentially, and if they increase it layer by layer, it will suffer the people of the world."
Chongzhen thought about it again and again, and only after a long time did he say helplessly: "Forget it, forget about this donation." ” When Lu Hanqiang heard this, he hurriedly admonished: "Long live it, if Long Live decrees to cancel the fundraising, it will be a change of day, which will greatly damage the credibility and prestige of Long Life, and besides, if this donation is not done like this, then there will be a national disaster in the future, and the officials will have to resist it by this rogue means, then it will be an irreparable terrible consequence." ” What Lu Hanqiang said is that in the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, when the Dashun army surrounded Beijing, Chongzhen once again raised donations to defend the city, and those officials resolutely resisted donations to save the country when they saw the city break and the country perished.
"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, so how can it work" Chongzhen impatiently interrupted Lu Hanqiang's words.
Lu Hanqiang thought about it, but there was no good way, so he could only come up with a stupid idea: "Or long live you make another decree to stipulate a class level, all the gentry who donate 100 taels will reward them with an honor of 100 households, and those who donate 1,000 taels will reward their sons and nephews with an honor of 1,000 households." ” "What's the difference between this and selling the official mantle, do you want me to be a faint king" Chongzhen was furious at the time, is this all a scoundrel method.
"What's more, I just took them a hundred taels of silver, and gave him a hundred households, you know, how much is a hundred households, it doesn't take five years for them to earn back, and I will have to lose money to support them in the future, are you confused?"
It seems that following the merchant out of the trader, this is a famous saying that I am not deceiving, this is always dangling in front of me, Chongzhen has also begun to calculate business accounts, this is a good thing.
Lu Hanqiang hurriedly shook his hand: "Long live misunderstanding, the minister didn't mean that." ” "Isn't that what does it mean, or what does it mean, isn't this method of yours just selling the official beard, then what is the difference between me and Emperor Han Ai, as my companion, do you want to make me a shameless faint monarch in the world, Lu Hanqiang, what are you doing" Chongzhen was really angry this time.
Lu Hanqiang grinned: "What is this, just at this moment, I read Lu Aiqing from Lu Ban, and finally, when I arrived at Lu Hanqiang, the original friendship was wiped out." ” "Hooray, you didn't understand what I said, please beldock your anger and let me explain it again."
Chongzhen stared at Lu Hanqiang for a long time, and then said angrily: "Say." ” Lu Hanqiang hurriedly explained: "What the minister just said is the honor of the hundred households and the thousand households, remember, it is honor and not reality.
We don't need to give them a little money, let alone real power, it's just a confession, a name, and a piece of waste paper. ” "Hmm" Chongzhen only thought about what Lu Hanqiang once said at this time, yes, what kind of honor is a hundred households.
"What do you mean" Lu Hanqiang saw that Chongzhen began to listen to himself again, so he explained his thoughts in detail, and finally said sincerely: "If you promulgate this decree, that is, the minister is willing to donate, that is the minister's patriotism, as long live, these patriotic ministers should be grateful and praised, so they gave grace, so that everyone can get what they want and can be grateful to each other."
Then open his arms and make a god-like gesture: "The world will be in harmony." ” t1706231537:
