Chapter 94: The emperor is ruthless and the court is unjust, but I am the only good person
When she left the palace and returned to Jia's house, Jia's mother was as devastated as if she was suffering from Alzheimer's disease.
Yuanyang waited on the side anxiously, fearing that something might happen to the old lady.
Jia Mu was indeed determined to go to the palace to complain, but the result was a huge disappointment.
Naturally, the emperor and the emperor could not see her, but the queen came forward to receive her.
After listening to the cry, the queen comforted her with a few words, saying that every family has difficult household chores and peace should be the most important thing.
After that, he expressed his position very directly, "General Jia is being greatly used by Your Majesty and is the pillar of the country. As an elder, the old lady should take care of the household affairs for General Jia and not let him distract from family affairs."
These words made Jia Mu's heart feel cold.
From the beginning to the end, he did not mention the evil and unfilial things, but instead advised himself to put the overall situation first.
What is this thing called? Is there no one to care about unfilial children bullying their elders?
The person who gave Jia Mu the final blow was Bao Qin beside the eldest girl.
Before leaving the palace, Baoqin caught up with him and said a few words.
"The eldest girl's status in the palace is getting more and more important, and she will be summoned more often."
When she heard this, Jia Mu also wanted to ask the eldest girl to help tell the emperor about the evil and unfilial things.
But Baoqin followed up and said, "Miss, it's all thanks to the help of my second brother. Not only does he often provide money, he can recruit people. He is also more and more important in front of His Majesty, and the complementarity of power is more important. I hope that everyone in the family can help, and Jia will be revived in the future."
The family will inevitably fall on the shoulders of the second brother.'
After saying these words, Jia Mu, who was completely dumbfounded, could only go home with dull eyes.
Li Yunze mocked her for being stupid for staying at home, and Gao Legao had already separated from society. This was not a humiliation, it was the real truth.
Jia Mu, who was in a daze and was exhausted mentally and physically, asked, "How is Baoyu?"
"Mr. Wang's wonderful rejuvenation has made him wake up. He said he has been in bed for more than half a month and will recover slowly."
"That's it." Mother Jia felt relieved and simply fell down to take a nap. "That's it."
After more than half a year of preparation, Li Yunze was finally ready to lead his battalion to the southeast coast to destroy the ghost pirates.
"Da Sima." Before setting off, Li Yunze found Liang Erhe and said, "The number of silver taels for departure is wrong, right?"
In the feudal era, except for a few powerful armies like the Yue Family Army, all other troops had to pay departure fees when they sent out to fight.
During the Jingkang period, Zhong Shizhong led an army to rescue Taiyuan City. Because the silver bowls distributed to the sergeants were not enough, the Song army scattered and was defeated, and eventually the country fell.
The Zhou Dynasty was no exception.
It was just that of the 200,000 taels of internal money that the emperor had promised before, when Li Yunze got it into his hands, only 40,000 taels were left.
"Long Live said that we only sent out one battalion of troops and did not need to pay too much for the departure, so we recovered one hundred thousand taels." Liang Erhe, who was holding a tea bowl, gently used the lid of the bowl to pour the tea. "This is the official order of Long Live, and there is nothing I can do about it."
This emperor is really instigating.
Li Yunze, who really wanted to laugh, suppressed his laughter and said, "Then there are still one hundred thousand taels left."
Liang Erhe took a sip of tea, raised his eyelids and glanced at him lightly, "Drift away."
The traditional skills of the civil service group have disappeared.
It hasn't even left Shenjing yet, and most of it has just floated away.
If Li Yunze were the emperor, he would have raised his butcher's knife high by now.
But if you sit in a different position with your buttocks, your thoughts will naturally be different.
"I see." Li Yunze nodded, "It seems that the Wei River has risen sharply recently, and you adults have already caught a lot of fresh fish."
Liang Erhe was not angry either. He expressed his position very seriously, "You don't understand much when you first entered the court. Don't think that I took a lot. In fact, it was only a mere four thousand taels. These were all taken according to the rules."
.If Zhang Chief Fu doesn’t take it, how will I take it? If I don’t take it, how will the people below take it? If you don’t take it, how will the generals under you take it? If they can’t get the money, how can they sacrifice their lives for you?”
Li Yunze said in awe, "I have learned a lesson."
Civil servants are really awesome, they can tell such things like that.
They did it as a matter of course, and they were not afraid that anyone would bring trouble to the emperor.
In fact, it is impossible for the emperor not to hear any rumors, as he has a group of people who specialize in intelligence.
But so what if we know, can't we just kill everyone?
If that were the case, the careerists would jump out immediately and kill the emperor as well.
"Actually, according to Zhang Shoufu's wishes, there should be only 30,000 taels left when it comes to you." Liang Erhe said with a look of "I feel good for you", "The extra 10,000 taels are the result of all my efforts.
You fought for it."
Li Yunze didn't know how to respond to what he said.
After a moment, he raised his hands and saluted, "Thank you, Da Sima."
"You were recommended by me. Whenever you gain military exploits, you will naturally get my share." There is no doubt that Liang Erhe was telling the truth sincerely. "You and I are one body with honor and disgrace, so naturally I will not treat you badly."
"So." Li Yunze quickly drew inferences, "Only 40% of the food, grass and military supplies provided by the inner government are left?"
"When you leave the warehouse, the documents will naturally say 100%. However, King Zhongshun is more ruthless. Maybe you can only get 30% of the food and grass, and there are other rules." Liang Erhe finally put down the tea bowl in his hand. "I
Dazhou has its own national conditions here, and you will get used to it from now on."
"Yes." Li Yunze lowered his eyelids and smiled with pursed lips, "I'll wait for it later."
When I take power in the future, the first thing I will do is cleanse you all from top to bottom!
He is not an emperor who worries too much, he is not afraid of anything!
Returning to the military camp, the commander-in-chief and other generals were waiting here.
The generals' eyes were enthusiastic, waiting for Li Yunze to share the money.
After sitting down, Li Yunze's first words shocked everyone: "I didn't even give him a tael of silver."
The generals were shocked at first, and then angry.
They also knew that there wouldn't be much left if they stretched out their hands, but they didn't expect that they wouldn't even give a tael.
"The emperor only gave me one hundred thousand taels. From the cabinet to the Ministry of War, and then to the capital camp. After dividing the money up and down, I only got five thousand taels."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Yunze immediately said, "Five thousand taels? I sent it to the beggars! I didn't ask for it, I just threw it back."
The generals looked strange, that was five thousand taels, and they didn't want it. They were really rich.
"You don't need to worry." Li Yunze took out his money ability, "I will pay for all the rewards in the camp."
Everyone was surprised at first, this was a huge number.
Immediately, they offered fragrant farts and denounced the emperor for being stingy and the court's lack of restraint. Only the general has a soldier in his heart and is willing to go through fire and water for the general.
Li Yunze nodded repeatedly, indicating that what you all said was correct, and then added, "Assemble the entire army later, and I will personally issue the silver."
As soon as this statement came out, several people's expressions changed slightly.
This was the case when the rations and salaries were distributed in the past. They were not given a chance to do anything, and the rations and salaries were distributed to the sergeants personally.
Although it took several days to complete the distribution, it really made the entire battalion understand who was the general and who was paying them.
From then on, the monthly distribution of food and wages was exclusively done by Li Yunze's personal troops.
He doesn't take empty pay or drink the soldiers' blood, he is paid in real terms.
As long as there is even a penny missing, the sergeants can come to Li Yunze to complain. There is only one end for deducting military pay in his camp, and that is to be beheaded in public.
The same goes for the silver rewards this time. Li Yunze had to let the sergeants know that the emperor was ruthless and the court was unjust, and the silver coins were all given by their generals.
If something like this happens again in the future, it will also be transferred to the Guards Corps for distribution.
What the Guards Corps represents is Li Yunze himself.
The inner government's cargo convoy delivered all kinds of military supplies needed for the expedition.
Including but not limited to thousands of stones of miscellaneous grains and old grains, tens of thousands of dry and useless bundles of fodder, hundreds of sets of tattered and moldy leather armor, two hundred tattered muskets with rusted muzzles, and hundreds of flaming guns
Stinking tattered tent.
There are a lot of shabby wooden carts without wheels, hundreds of pieces of cloth and silk that have been eaten by insects and rats, dozens of emaciated animals, and more than a hundred military and civilian servants who are either old men or children, etc.
"Your Majesty."
Looking at King Zhongshun who was lying on the chair and sniffing the snuff bottle in front of him, Li Yunze shook the warehouse exit document in his hand: "20,000 shi of fine polished rice, 4,000 shi of high-quality bean cakes, 1,200 pairs of fine iron armor, and brand new Rumi guns."
Six hundred poles, 1,500 new cowhide tents, 400 finely crafted carts, 3,000 pieces of fine cotton, 600 large livestock, and 2,000 able-bodied men..."
"It seems that the inner government has suffered a huge deficit recently." Li Yunze took two steps forward and stared at King Zhongshun condescendingly, "I am here to settle all the accounts."
This is not a simple matter for the inner government, but a matter of seizing the opportunity to settle many of the previous deficits.
As long as Li Yunze signs the document, many people from top to bottom will celebrate.
Things that have been disposed of long ago and replaced with money fall into your pocket, so that you can truly spend with peace of mind.
This is easy to understand. After all, everyone's wealth, luxury, luxury, mansions, beauties, etc. all depend on rules. You can't just count on a salary.
"Old rules." King Zhongshun sniffed the snuff bottle leisurely and sneezed happily, "I'm half as good as you."
"Too little." Li Yunze sighed quietly, "Is the prince sending away beggars?"
King Zhongshun was startled for a moment, then sneered, "This is a rule. If you break the rules, you will offend everyone, and they will tear you to pieces and eat you."
He believed that Li Yunze would definitely agree, because even the emperor could not completely offend everyone.
Li Yunze wasn't angry either. He asked calmly, "How much did the prince get?"
"So what if I tell you." The confident King Zhongshun glanced at Li Yunze, "I will take 30%."
"Then I want your 30%."
The snuff bottle in King Zhongshun's hand fell to the ground. "What did you say?"
"I said." Li Yunze leaned over and stared at King Zhongshun, whose face was trembling with fat, "I want your 30%."
Raising his hand and slapping it on the armrest, King Zhongshun said angrily, "You are so brave."
"Not only am I brave, I am also very brave in other areas." Li Yunze's expression remained unchanged. "How about I take these things and the documents from the warehouse to the palace now and give them to His Majesty?"
"How dare you!" The furious King Zhongshun stood up, "How dare you offend everyone?"
"I dare."
Li Yunze nodded seriously, "I am only targeting you. As a prince of the clan, you have lost His Majesty's trust. Tsk, tsk, I guess the prince will not end well. Otherwise, the prince will ask the Supreme Emperor?"
Please ask the Supreme Emperor? That will make you die faster.
Although King Zhongshun is broad and fat, his brain is not bad at all.
The emperor was suspicious and cruel. There were so many princes in the clan, but only the loyal and obedient king could gain the emperor's trust. How could he be so stupid?
He looked at Li Yunze in confusion, "Why are you going against me?"
Li Yunze responded sincerely, "The prince misunderstood, I just want money. It happens that the prince has too much money at home, so I am here to help him spend some money."
Li Yunze, who was unhappy after paying such a large amount of departure fees to all the soldiers in the battalion, wanted to recover some of his capital.
What's more important is that King Zhongshun and the Jia family are in completely opposite positions, and they will certainly want to kill him if they have the chance.
Especially since this guy has thoughts about Sister Lin, how can he tolerate this?
Today is just an appetizer, he will be killed when the troops return.
"I don't want much." Li Yunze seemed to be talking about a trivial matter, "The prince can just show some from between his fingers and give me fifty thousand taels."
"Fifty thousand taels?" King Zhongshun screamed, "Why don't you go and grab it?!"
"That's right, it's just robbery." Li Yunze spread his hands innocently, "Either give me money, or I will enter the palace now. When the time comes, I will leave and go to fight, and the prince will have to think carefully about how to explain to your majesty."
There is no need to explain anything at all.
Considering the emperor's suspicious and ruthless temper, it is impossible to say that his property was confiscated after being imprisoned.
"Your Majesty." Li Yunze consoled him with sincerity, "Those who know the current affairs are heroes."
