dream of red mansion

But fortunately, it's not like the previous Ming Dynasty, where the national treasury has been in deficit year after year, with a large deficit, which he can barely cover every year.Thinking of this, Emperor Zhengqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Ha ha."

Niu Jizong laughed strangely: "This is the house managed by your household department, you really manage it well!"

Another servant of the household department was not happy when he heard this, and said: "Master Niu, you must speak conscientiously! Although our household department has the responsibility of housekeeping, the use of all the money and food in the treasury is not up to us.

It is not for the adults of the yamen to apply for any expenses of the imperial court.Then our household department draws out a list and presents it to His Majesty for review, and even large items have to be brought to the court for all adults to discuss together.Our household department has never dared to give a tael of silver to anyone without permission, and all expenses are clearly accounted for.

Not to mention anything else, let’s just talk about the military department where Mr. Niu works. Every year, nearly half of the money in the treasury is transferred to the military department.Now Master Niu is saying this, it's really annoying! "

The right servant's words are more interesting. Not only did he run on Niu Jizong's ignorance of good and bad with his words, but he also vaguely wanted to reduce military expenditure...

This issue is brought up almost every year, mainly because of the big bosses of the cabinet and the military cabinet. Is it necessary to discuss this issue under such circumstances today?

Niu Jizong said disdainfully: "You want to have something to say, but you have to dare."

"you!!"

Now it's all right, the right servant was also so angry that he raised his beard.

Emperor Zhengqing at the top couldn't stand it anymore, and reprimanded softly: "Niu Aiqing, watch your words."

Niu Jizong accepted it.

Emperor Zhengqing said at the right time: "The Ministry of Households is in charge of the world's money and food. It has a great responsibility. Gao Aiqing begged me for the bones many times, but I didn't agree. When I tell my old age and return to my hometown, I will also be given a thousand taels of silver and a palace car, and I can return to my hometown to be honored and raised at another day."

"Your Majesty Shengming."

Gao Lun, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, was sick for a few days and did not go to court. This discussion was already expected by everyone.

"Your Majesty, the Tatars just killed three Russians by mistake. I absolutely don't believe that they would simply dispatch two groups of tens of thousands of Cossack cavalry for this purpose, and they still braved such a severe winter. This is really unreasonable.

If we are indifferent to this, in case the Tatar tribe is not guaranteed, let the Cossack cavalry go south smoothly, not only will the Mongolian tribes become fish on the lips of Russia in the future, but even our dynasty will inevitably face a direct confrontation with Russia.

On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to sleep soundly?

Since the Russians are ready to fight, sooner or later there will be a war with us.Instead of letting them try every means, just stare at them.It is better to take the initiative to attack and strengthen our military might so that the Russians will not dare to attack again, and by the way deter the petty minds of Tartars, Annan, Tomo and others. "

Emperor Zhengqing originally wanted to drop Lin Ruhai's appointment by the way, but was interrupted by Niu Jizong, so he had to do so temporarily.

Right now, this is the most important issue.

"What do you Aiqing think of Mr. Niu's proposal?"

......

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Behind Ning'an Hall is Jia Qing's main courtyard.

Peifeng grabbed the hurried Fu Huiwen and said, "Sister Fu, what is Second Master looking for you in such a hurry?"

Fu Huiwen was the captain of the guards, and also the leader of Xuewei when Wu Xian'er was away.

"It's nothing, the young master just ordered to find someone for him. If my sister has nothing else to do, I will leave first."

Fu Huiwen was not rude to Jia Qing's favorite maid, she nodded and smiled, and left.

"What, it's mysterious."

Peifeng stomped her feet in displeasure.

Just as I was about to go to the study, I saw Wang Shun's naughty boy rushing into the study.

"Peifeng, what's wrong?"

Lian'er and Jin'er walked into the main courtyard and happened to see it.

Peifeng turned her head and saw that it was the two of them, so she said: "Just now I saw the second master came back from the front, he looked unhappy, and he didn't say what happened when I asked him."

Lian Er smiled and said: "Just now we were washing clothes by the pool in the garden, and happened to meet the old mother in the old lady's house who came to send a message, saying to ask the second master to come over. Wait, I will tell the second master, and help you by the way Ask."

Pei Feng hurriedly said: "Forget it, don't go now, the second master is seeing Wang Shun."

Lian'er stopped in her tracks, and suddenly walked around Peifeng, jokingly said, "Sister Peifeng, it's not that you offended the second master, you are afraid that we will take your job, so you stop us ?”

"nonsense......"

"I don't have it!!"

Peifeng became ashamed, she clearly knew that Jia Qing should have important matters to deal with, and she didn't even let her wait in the study, so she prevented them from entering.

Damn girl Lian'er, relying on Second Master to praise her for being good-looking, she always fights against me.Hmph, you're just a little raw, and you can't get past me, otherwise, why didn't the second master put you in the inner room to serve you?

"You go as soon as you want, and you will get angry with the second master, so don't blame me for not reminding you."

After finishing speaking, Peifeng went into the room angrily.

Jin'er said: "Lian'er, why are you making Peifeng angry on purpose?"

Lian'er said indifferently: "That's because she is stingy and has dominated Second Master's favor for so many years, can't she even stand this little thing?"

"But......"

"But what, well, I'm going to dry the clothes, you stay here, if Wang Shun still doesn't come out in a while, you can just tell the second master outside."

Jin'er was surprised, she thought Lian'er wanted to stay and report.

Lian'er seemed to see through her thoughts, and said with a smile: "Why, you really think I want to steal Peifeng's job as 'Little Eunuch in the Study Room'?"

Then he seemed to think of something, sighed and said: "If it was a few years ago, I would definitely have such an idea, but now that so many years have passed, I have already understood the meaning of the second master. The reason why we still keep us In the main courtyard, the honor given to us is only because of the friendship of the second master for many years.

Those of us who followed Second Master out of Yipintang, in fact, which one would not want to serve Second Master for the rest of his life?Second Master is so kind, considerate and gentle, but can there really be so many people around him?

The second master also said that when we reach the age, he will give us grace and let us go out of the house.

Since he knows that this is the best ending, why bother to engage in this useless dispute in this room, it will not only add chaos to the second master, but also hurt the relationship for no reason.

Ha ha, now that I think about it, I'm still a little bit reconciled.But from the perspective of the second master, this is already the best for us.As for Peifeng and Xieluan, who told them that they were lucky to be the first to serve Second Master personally..."

Lian'er's calm and wise words surprised Jin'er, and at the same time shattered her last illusion.

She really wanted to say: She doesn't need to ask for anything, she just wants to stay by Jia Qing's side, even if she will be a maid for the rest of her life... But reason tells her that this is self-deception.

I'm really not reconciled...

Forget it, didn't the second master say that, in the case of the same palace, when they reach the age of 25, they will find a good family for them, let them go out of the house, and never be slaves again.
