Chapter 257
Liu Xie and Pei Mao reached a consensus, and immediately approved Yang Biao's memorial.

The strategy of military settlements is feasible, but the county is limited to [-] households.There are [-] soldiers in one household, and they belong to four generals, each with [-] people.

The military households prepare their own military rations, which are stored in a unified manner in the county, and the military supplies are uniformly supplied by the iron officials, and subsidies are provided by the Dasinong.

The expenses of the imperial court were provided by Tieguan, Yanchi, and Shanze income.Considering these limited incomes, everyone from the emperor to ordinary soldiers must practice frugality and prohibit extravagance and waste.

Including the ceremony of worshiping heaven, all court etiquette should be frugal so as not to increase the burden on the people in Hedong.

Yang Biao was both happy and worried when he received the approval of the imperial edict.

The joy is that the emperor advocates frugality and is the king of the heart.

The worry is that this frugality seems to be a bit too much, and the days of salary are nowhere in sight.

The emperor is satisfied with food and clothing, so how dare they, ministers and ministers, ask for money.

But without money, where does the gift come from?
Etiquette is never cheap, and the more grand the ceremony, the more expensive it is.

This is undoubtedly a problem.

Yang Biao took the imperial edict for approval and turned around to look for Xun Yu.

After reading the reply, Xun Yu was very calm. "Does Yang Gong love sheep, do you love rituals?"

Yang Biao rolled his eyes. "How can ritual be done without sheep?"

Xun Yu spread his hands. "Now that there are no sheep, what is the etiquette? Not to mention the whole county of Hedong, Yang Gong must have heard about how many people came to occupy the land in Anyi County. Tens of thousands of troops gathered here in order to raise their rations and rewards for the New Year. , I've run out of ideas. I really can't afford the sacrifice of the court ceremony."

Yang Biao sighed helplessly, and became more and more annoyed at Sun Rui's soft-heartedness at the beginning.

Failure to strike against the Hedong clan resulted in extremely limited materials at the court's disposal, and even the sacrifices for the ceremony were not fully prepared.

The emperor issued an edict to the people to occupy the land, but there were very few people who responded, and there were not many temples in Anyi County.

Obviously, if you don't use Thunder's means, these Hedong clans won't care.

But it is not acceptable to cancel the rewards for the soldiers.

There are tens of thousands of soldiers, most of whom are Xiliang soldiers who have just surrendered. If they don't give rewards during the Chinese New Year, they will definitely cause trouble.

It's just that he just talked about his anger towards Shi Sunrui, but he knew very clearly in his heart that if he really wanted to kill Wei and Fan, it's impossible for Hedong to be so quiet now, and it's impossible for them to have the mood to argue whether it's a sheep or a gift. .

Both leniency and strictness are wrong.

"In your opinion, so what?"

"In the past, Dayu controlled the waters. He had no legs and no hair on his shins. He passed through the house for thirteen years and did not enter the world. Now Luoyang is in sight, and the emperor does not return. The new year is approaching, and he is determined to hunt north, and he will not give up his hard work. This is the blessing of the great man, so why should Duke Yang care about whether there are sheep for the sacrifice?"

Yang Biao rolled his eyes and stopped talking.

"And Taiyuan was originally the homeland of Emperor Xiaowen. When the emperor visited the former emperor's homeland, he could also offer sacrifices to mountains and rivers, without having to go to the east of the river."

Yang Biao rolled his eyes, and his anger turned into joy.

"Wen Ruo, this plan is feasible. It's just... In this way, the Duke must accompany you."

"Does Yang Gong think it's far away?"

Yang Biao was taken aback, and pretended to be angry: "Zhuzi, do you dislike us for wasting money and food from the east of the river, and want to drive us to Taiyuan?"

Xun Yu laughed, and then said: "Why did Yang Gong say this, I just hope that the Northern Army will arrive in Taiyuan as soon as possible. If you prepare one day earlier, you will have a better chance of winning. If you don't make meritorious service, how can the scholar Sun Junrong be promoted to Taiwei?"

Yang Biao understood.

Xun Yu sent Yang Biao away, and then summoned five postal supervisors, ordering them to send the documents for recruiting the army to the counties, and they must be delivered before the fifth day of the first lunar month, so that the counties can make various preparations during the New Year , It will be fully implemented as soon as the New Year is over.

-

Situ Zhao Wen and Sikong Zhang Xi called a group of ministers to discuss matters and announced a notice.

There will be no salary for Chinese New Year this year.

Before the words fell, everyone in the hall sighed.

The new year is approaching, and everyone is looking forward to a salary, even for a month.

After running around for so long, even the change of clothes is torn, so it's time to buy a new one.

After traveling with the court for several years, his savings have long been exhausted, and the only hope is salary.How can I live this year without a salary?
After everyone had been whispering for a while, Situ Zhao Wen announced the second news.

Due to the lack of supplies, all etiquette was kept simple.On New Year's Day, there can only be one ceremony for the grand court and feast, and the subsequent suburban sacrifices must also be reduced in scale.

Many people have no energy to refute this important news that is related to the dignity of the court.

It is said that etiquette is very simple, but everyone knows how difficult it is to manage it.If this responsibility falls on oneself, wouldn't it be just asking for trouble.

Keep it simple, let's keep it simple, who made the court so poor.

Some people couldn't help looking at Shi Sun Rui.

At first, I thought that Shi Sun Rui was doing the right thing, that he was a benevolent elder, but now I feel that Shi Sun Rui is somewhat soft-hearted.If Wei Gu and Fan Xian took advantage of the rebellion to kill a group of people, the spoils would be enough to last for a while.

Well now, watching the big families in Hedong eat hot and spicy food, but the court can't even get the money for the ceremony, and they don't have any salary to pay.

Shi Sunrui's face remained unchanged, as calm as water.

Finally, Situ Zhaowen announced the third news.

Although there is no salary to send, there are rewards.

Not according to official rank, but calculated by person, each person has two catties of meat, one liter of wine, three hundred money, and half of the amount for underage children.

Most of the officials are single, and there are very few family members, so the cost is not big, and the court tried to find a way to get it out.

In addition, Shaofu is negotiating with Hedong County to buy some cloth from Kanto with salt and iron to solve the difficulty of dressing officials.If all goes well, when the weather warms up, everyone can change into new clothes.

After everyone heard this, the resentment in their hearts dissipated a lot.

Although these things can be eaten for a meal or two, they are better than nothing.

The imperial court really has no money, and it is not easy to do this.

-

On the thirtieth day of the twelfth lunar month, the emperor rewards the army.

After Xun Yu's efforts and Pei Mao's cooperation, Liu Xie finally got the supplies to reward the three armies.

Five catties of meat, two liters of wine, and five hundred dollars per person.

There are not many things, but it is the heart of the court.

This is a reward that can only be realized when the ministers and ministers have no salary to receive.If according to the usual practice, the salaries of the public servants are given priority, the ordinary soldiers will not even look at the hair, let alone the meat.

The cooperation of the ministers and ministers is due to the emperor's frugality on the one hand, and the example of Yang Biao, Zhao Wen and others on the other hand.

It is said that the courtiers received less rewards, only about half of them.

Although things are few, friendship is heavy.The emperor's love for the soldiers can be seen.

Immediately afterwards, the Son of Heaven summoned the generals to discuss matters, and the Guangluxun Battalion, the Fifth School of the Northern Army, and General Zhang Yang of the Xiaoqi Army drove north to hunt.

The right general Dong Cheng moved to Anyi, the left general Yang Feng moved to Shan County, and the rear general Yang Ding moved to Puban.

The next day is the new year, and the yuan was changed to the first year of Jian'an. The imperial edict was issued to the world, and Zhengshuo was issued to show the orthodox position of the world, and envoys were sent to sacrifice to Huashan and Dahe.

After the great dynasty, the emperor announced that Jinyang would be hunted in the north, offering sacrifices to Beiyue, and the prince would accompany him.
