Wenhua Palace,

Yan Chengjin bowed in the hall, still holding three gold medals in his hand.

Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly: "I sent Xiao's partner to pass the imperial edict. If Wang Shouren and Andingbo cannot win, you can follow the British Duke and go to the Nine-side military supervision!"

this……

It is a favor to others, such as the former emperor favored Wang Zhi and asked him to lead troops to fight.

But he must not leave the capital!

Yan Chengjin thought about it carefully and said, "Why not be the military supervisor, Eunuch Xiao is the one who is responsible for the military supervision?"

Zhu Houzhao, who was beside her, looked at her eyes flashed, and she lowered her head and thought about something seriously.

At this moment, Xiao Jing hurriedly walked in: "Your Majesty, the three ministers of the cabinet have left the palace, but the rest of the officials are unwilling to leave."

I have already passed the oral order and will not be in person, so why do I still stay in Fengtian Palace?

Emperor Hongzhi turned around, his eyes fell on Xiao Jing's face, and he was a little angry: "Do you still want me to issue an edict to blame me!"

"No, all officials beg for war and issue national debts." Xiao Jing said.

These officials learned it after tasting the sweetness once.

The Tatars went west to fight against small countries, and the royal family plundered property and traded war horses, so there were quite a few of them piled up.

Yan Chengjin said: "This move can save money on the national treasury, I think it's OK."

A mansion was reported from the palace. When the gentry heard that they were going to conquer the Tatars, they went to Hongzhi merchants to exchange silver notes.

It is not convenient to grab national debts.

Early in the morning, morning court.

Emperor Hongzhi sat upright in the hall and saw Liu Qing, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, enter the palace.

He asked in confusion: "Liu Qing's family entered the palace, what should I report?"

Liu Qing looked bitter: "The gentry went to Shuntian Prefecture to beg for money, and asked the court to issue national debts."

All the officials looked around and bowed together.

"Please send national debts to save the treasury silver."

"I'm going to discuss it!"

The last time I issued a government bond, I only got a little bit of money.

This time Yan Chengjin refused to do so, so he might be able to divide it with a little more.

Korean nodded and said, "War consumes a huge national strength, and the human resources invested alone are immeasurable. If the gentry can pay the money, they can share the losses for the court."

Liu Jian nodded and agreed.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "These officials think how many treasury bonds should be issued?"

The Tatars are more than twice as powerful as Annan.

The troops and expenses that need to be invested are several times that of Annan.

This means that there are more government bonds to be issued than Annan.

After Yan Chengjin issued the money once, all officials knew what the government debt was. Chai Sheng took the lead and said: "First raise 8 million taels, 10,000 taels per share, and give 800 shares."

The military expenditure is used to prepare military rations, distribute wages, rectify weapons, equip war horses, etc.

If you eat porridge every meal, you can save more, and there is no fixed number.

Raising eight million taels is enough to prepare and 300,000 soldiers and fully equipped.

All officials hurriedly said that it would be better to send more.

At this moment, Han Wen said again: "I think is issuing four million taels enough. If it is not enough, you can issue a second national debt.

If you pay 8 million taels at a time, you will lose money.”

Yan Chengjin agrees with Korean.

The excess money is taken into account interest when you hold it in your hands.

It’s like having money in your pocket, but you have to borrow a small loan to play with, and you are deliberately trying to give interest to others.

Emperor Hongzhi's eyes moved slightly. If the plundered property was not enough, the court would still have to pay the silver.

"As Han Qing's family said."

The news of the residence was heard outside the palace, and the capital was like boiled white water, and it was full of controversy.

There are gentry on the streets and alleys, carrying treasures and land deeds, and they have to queue up to pawn the house.

It is not easy to prepare ten thousand taels of cash.

But the gentry were happy.

"Once you buy the national debt, even if the court loses, interest will be paid."

"A deal that won't be lost unless the court is gone."

The doorsteps of the capital were gone, and they were all exchanged for money.

On Qipan Street, a blue sedan chair slowly passed by. Yan Chengjin lifted the curtain and glanced at it, then put it down.

"Master, will we buy it?"

"I don't buy it in just a treasury bond."

January passed, the preparations for the Beijing camp were completed, and outside the capital, 300,000 troops were on high alert.

Looking around, the neatly arranged soldiers were like arranged squares.

Yan Chengjin said: "My father is not strong enough to guard his father, so he can only ask Brother Bo'an."

Wang Shouren looked at him deeply.

As if he had expected Yan Chengjin to do something, he reached out with tacit understanding: "Brother Gao, please bring it."

Yan Chengjin skillfully took out two tips from his arms and handed them over: "This is yours, this is my father's."

Wang Shouren glanced at him and bowed, "Brother Gao, take care of him!"

He pulled his horse and turned around, clamped his legs, and the horse's hooves gradually became fast, and the Beijing camp disappeared from sight.

...

In the 18th year of Hongzhi, early July.

It has been more than ten days since Wang Shouren left Beijing.

Cabinet, room.

Liu Jian read a few memorials and sighed: "After Ma Gong retired, all the memorials from the Ministry of Personnel were sent to the cabinet."

Li Dongyang and Xie Qian looked at Yan Chengjin at the same time.

Ma Gong worked hard and often worked impartially in the office of the Ministry of Personnel until late at night to handle affairs in the court.

If this guy hadn't impeached, how could he have resigned?

Yan Chengjin lowered his head and looked through the accounts of the Ministry of Revenue, but his ears were always paying attention.

Xie Qian said: "Mr. Liu wants to choose the Heavenly Officer of the Ministry of Personnel?"

"The Ministry of Personnel is the head of the six ministries, how can it be vacant? Tomorrow, we will advise Your Majesty."

It's not just a vacant Ministry of Personnel.

After Wang Shouren left the capital, even the Censor was vacant.

There is also the Minister of Justice, and no one is on duty.

Yan Chengjin thought about it and began to write and draw on paper, recommending himself tomorrow and making some preparations.

Soon, the cabinet wanted to recommend the Minister of Personnel and spread it to the six ministries from the mouths of the civil servants.

At the hour of You, the value is set.

When he returned to the mansion, Yan Chengjin walked into the mansion courtyard. Li Qing'e walked up and whispered: "My husband, Lord Han is here."

Outside the mansion, there was a red four-carriage sedan parked, which was in Korean.

When Han Wen saw Yan Chengjin walking into the main hall, he smiled and said, "Sir Yan, should the cabinet recommend the Ministry of Personnel?"

The civil servant brought the news to Han Wen, which meant to be flattering.

But Yan Chengjin knew that the candidate for the Ministry of Personnel this time was not Korean.

But Wang Liang...

In the 16th year of Hongzhi, Wang Yan's father Wang Wan passed away, and he went home to attend the funeral.

He didn't return to Beijing to work until one month ago.

This is true of history, and I still don’t know if there are any variables.
To be continued...
