please make me king

Chapter 1670 New Year's Eve

The rustling snow reflected a slightly whiter night sky.

In the silent night, the sound of footsteps against the background is particularly piercing.

Groups of ghostly figures came out from Dizai Gate and Fusheng Gate.

These two gates are the north gates of Shenyang, Shengjing, and are also called Xiaobeimen and Dabeimen respectively. They are the only way to go to the North Gate Pinglubao area.

"Lord Baylor, not far ahead is the trench of the 'Shun Bandit'!" At this moment, a figure with the appearance of a general pointed to the tunnel of the rebel camp to one of them.

"Well, be careful and sneak past!" The leader nodded upon hearing this.

After they received the order, they couldn't help but one after another, took their mouths, and quietly touched the trenches of the rebel army.

"Hey, hey!" Accompanied by a slight sound of footsteps falling on the snow, Jin Jingrui, the back of the team, quickly came to him.

"Enemy attack!" However, before the Jin soldiers could move, a high-pitched cry resounded through the night sky.

"Bastard, you've been spotted, shoot the arrow!" The leader was startled, and ordered quickly.

Although the sentinel on the high platform was shot to death by random arrows soon, it also alarmed the rebels. For a while, an unknown number of soldiers rushed out of the camp and counterattacked the golden soldiers.

But when the fierce battle between the two sides was in full swing, there was laughter and laughter far away in the capital, which was very lively.

Every household posted Spring Festival couplets, set off firecrackers, and everywhere was filled with festive joy.

"The government of Pingyang has collected 89 shi in total, and still owes 11 shi."

"Baoding, Damingfu and other places suffered disasters, and applied for relief of money and food."

"Hong Chengchou sent a letter, claiming that there was insufficient artillery and gunpowder to conquer Xuzhou, and he applied for the mobilization of [-] 'General Qingtian Cannons' and [-] catties of gunpowder."

Accompanied by the clear and gentle voice of Zhang Zhoutian and Zhu Sinu, the report came up one by one.

"Remember the area of ​​Pingyang Mansion for the time being. In the next year, someone will go to verify it. If you really can't pay, you will be exempted; if someone maliciously delays, you will be punished by law!" Zhang Shun pondered for a while, and then dealt with it together.

"Baoding and Daming suffered from military disasters, right? This year, money and food will be exempted, but the local officials at the prefecture and county levels must recruit refugees as soon as possible to resume production. Not only will summer food be paid in full next year, but people will also be sent to verify it."

"The Hong Chengchou area is not in a hurry for the time being. Now soldiers are everywhere, begging everywhere for food, artillery, gunpowder and other equipment."

"First give him ten 'General Qingtian Cannons', five thousand catties of gunpowder, and let him raise some of the rest, and the court will make up for it later."

"Yes!" All the girls rushed to write quickly when they heard the words, and each of them approved the letter in their hands.

"Ha~" Tian Xiuying couldn't help yawning at this moment, and quickly stretched out her hand to cover it.

"What's the matter, are you tired?" Zhang Shun found out that the candle lamp was already lit in the room, and asked in surprise.

"Yes, a little bit." Tian Xiuying replied with a blushing face, feeling sore all over and extremely tired for a moment.

"How about this, you guys go down and have a rest first, and I will approve the rest myself!" Zhang Shun looked at the tired-looking girls and said unbearably.

"Ah, how can this be done?" Zhang Yan quickly answered after hearing the words, "There are not many left, why don't we work harder and approve together?"

She is older than the girls, so she is more sleepy than other people.

However, no matter how hard and tiring she was, she didn't want to lose the little bit of power she had.

The experience of the past few months has made her realize that she and others are not irreplaceable.

In fact, if Zhang Shun allowed Hong Niangzi, Li Xiang, Gao Guiying and other women to intervene, the efficiency might be much faster than it is now.

However, he didn't, so she naturally didn't want to give him the idea of ​​adding a "newcomer".

"No need, it's the Chinese New Year, can I still get you all tired?" Zhang Shun smiled, shook his head and said, "I have them all, even the female officers, you should take a rest, you can be regarded as the king Give you a break!"

It turned out that Zhang Shun's team, in addition to Zhang Zhoutian and Zhu Sinu, also had a group of "skinny horses" collected from various nobles, about 30 people, who have been engaged in the most basic copywriting, calculation and other work.

"Ah, this..." the girls hesitated for a while when they heard that you look at me and I look at you.

"For the New Year's Eve, everyone else will be dressed up for a while, so are you going to have the New Year's Eve dinner like this?" Zhang Shun couldn't help but asked again.

"Then that concubine thanked His Highness for your kindness!" When the girls heard this, they no longer hesitated, and quickly bowed deeply to Zhang Shun.

Seeing all the girls filing out, Zhang Shun couldn't help but shook his head and smiled.

Now I really look like an unscrupulous boss who makes people work overtime every day without overtime pay!

Immediately, he stood up and stretched his arms and legs, then picked up the neatly placed books on the case, and continued to reply.

These jobs are boring and boring, and there are many traps hidden in the words quoted from the classics, and if you are not careful, you will be tricked.

Of course, a wise man is sure to make a mistake, even if he is tricked by someone, it is nothing.

Only in this way, I am afraid that the people and officials involved will suffer unreasonable disasters.

The light ones destroyed the family and the family, and the serious ones starved to death.

At this moment, he suddenly understood Wuhou Zhuge Liang.

People always criticize him for doing everything himself, so that he was overworked and died young.

However, when he really took over the power, he realized that the whole world is staring at you, and if you slack off, they will pounce on you and bite you.

They count your money, your power, your land, your people, and everything about you.

As the old saying goes: Those who are wiser than ten thousand people are called heroes, those with thousands of people are called handsome, those with hundreds of people are called heroes, and those with ten people are called outstanding.

However, his enemies are more than thousands of people?
Regardless of what the world is like, under the rule of the rebel army alone, there are probably tens of millions of people.

Facing so many "opponents", how do you let him slack off?
I don't know how long it took, and Zhang Shun couldn't help but let out a long breath after finally approving all the comments.

He wanted to check it again, but seeing the pile of documents in front of him, he finally gave up.

"Gao Qiqian, Gao Qiqian, send someone to distribute all these dredgings and save them for tomorrow's execution!" Zhang Shun couldn't help shouting.

"Your Highness is confused. Today is New Year's Eve, and the Six Departments have already rested. The ministers must finish the first day of the new year soon!" Gao Qiqian rubbed his eyes and couldn't help laughing.

"Oh?" Zhang Shun finally realized that the ministers in the DPRK had already taken their annual leave, and unless there were urgent matters, they would not disturb their rest.

"Okay then, let's have a good year too!" Zhang Shun heaved a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but look around.

There, there, and there!

Perhaps apart from the eastern ocean, the north, west and south are all using troops?
"Report, the Empress has a decree, please Your Highness go to Qianqing Palace to have a talk!" However, when Zhang Shun was full of emotions and was about to live a good year in peace, suddenly a little eunuch rushed over in a hurry.

"Why panic?" Zhang Shun frowned and asked quickly.

"Your Highness Qiqizuo, Your Majesty. Your Majesty is ill!" the little eunuch replied quickly upon hearing this.

"What?" Zhang Shun and Gao Qiqian couldn't help being surprised when they heard the words.

It turns out that according to the customs of this era, there is a ceremony of "Zhengdan Dynasty Greetings" on the first day of the new year.

At the third quarter of Yin time, the officials who stayed in the capital will go to the Qianqing Palace to congratulate the current "Holy Lord".

Originally, all of this followed the old rules and had been arranged long ago, but Zhang Shun never expected that something went wrong at a critical moment.
