Chapter 548 Since it's okay, let's check the accounts
"The ministers welcome His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun to Taiyuan City."

"His Royal Highness is a thousand years old, and all the blessings and gold are safe."

On the official road in the south of Taiyuan City, the emperor grandson of the current dynasty who went north was parading in front of the team. Countless officials from the Sansi Yamen of Shanxi Road and the various yamen of Taiyuan Prefecture bowed and clasped their fists and bowed.

Not to mention those gentry and merchants, they waved their robes and knelt down to the ground after the officials.

As for the onlookers in the wilderness farther away, they also squatted down, lowered their heads and pressed their hands on the ground, lest they stand too high and attract the attention of the Jinyi guards who were patrolling in Taisun North.

The majesty and honor of the emperor's grandson must be treated with the highest level before everything is torn apart.

The imperial power was still supreme in the 28th year of Hongwu.

On the high slope in the distance, Qiuniang looked at her with a radiant look.

She stretched her arms around Erlang's arm, and whispered softly, "It's really amazing."

Zhu Yunwen frowned with a smile: "Don't worry, you should believe it when you see this, we can all go home."

"Ah."

Qiu Niang nodded her head crisply and hummed, then rested her head on Zhu Yunwen's chest, looking hopefully at the person sitting on horseback on the official road in the distance, who was the most eye-catching position among everyone. The person I met in the imperial city of Zhongdu.

"I heard that the chief minister and the capital of Shanxi Province rushed back to Taiyuan City in the past few days."

Zhu Yunxi didn't cry out, but the imperial horse lifted the reins lightly, and said casually, and the war horse under him also followed his instructions, and lightly stepped on its two front hooves.

The Shanxi officials who bowed their waists and lowered their heads on the official road felt a little hesitant.

Changsun Gong, as the head of Shanxi Dao civil officials, lowered his head and shook his head: "I haven't heard the holy words for a long time. After hearing the news in the past and the past, His Royal Highness Taisun toured the north. When he arrived in Shanxi, the ministers were very happy and returned to Taiyuan to ask His Royal Highness Zheng. Chao Tang Mu guards one side, so that the land of one side is peaceful."

After finishing speaking, Changsun Gong thought in his heart that Zhu Yunxi should definitely call out at this time.

However, Zhu Yunxi who was on the horse didn't have this idea, but smiled and scanned the crowd in front of him, but no one raised his head.

He looked sideways at the stage where the gongs and drums were still blaring, and the two groups of Taiyuan gongs and drums were still beating hard.

Gao Yangzhi who was beside him also turned his head to look over, and then said to Sun Cheng: "Stop it, what's the matter with being so noisy."

After finishing speaking, Gao Yangzhi turned his head and glanced lightly at the Shanxi Dao Sansitang official and his subordinates standing in the front.

Sun Cheng got the order and rushed to the stage with his people.

After a while, the Taiyuan gongs and drums, which were called noisy and inappropriate by the cabinet ministers of the Ming Dynasty, finally stopped.

Sound stopped.

The Shanxi officials present felt another meal in their hearts.

First, the emperor's grandson never called everyone up, and then the cabinet ministers said that the noise was inappropriate.

This is killing power.

Zhu Yunxi said indifferently: "I'm going to Shanxi, and I'm writing that the prefectures and counties are preparing food and grass for the army. I don't know how the Taiyuan prefecture is doing now?"

This is still the job of the chief envoy, Si Yamen.

Changsun Gong continued: "Taisun's northern patrol needs a large amount of food and grass for one month. At this time, the new year is approaching, and the chief envoy Si Yamen is cleaning up the accounts. The food and grass needed will take about ten days."

Zhu Yunxi smiled and said: "So, Gu can't continue on his way."

Changsun Gong laughed: "The pass has already been covered with snow, and it should be snowing in Taiyuan Mansion in the past two days. Why don't your highness temporarily live in Taiyuan before the New Year's Pass, and after the spring thaws and the roads are solidified, then go north to tour the border passes?
Going north from Taiyuan Prefecture, you will find Datong Military Town, which can be reached without a ten-day journey.If His Highness does not want to stay in Taiyuan for a long time, and is busy patrolling the northern border, you can wait for the officials to raise food and grass before heading north. "

Zhu Yunxi smiled silently.

The reason Shanxi Taoist found was very sufficient, and there was nothing wrong with it from the court's laws and regulations alone.

Everyone knows that raising a large army of food and grass is the most time-consuming.

It's just that at this time, the local summer and autumn taxes have already been completed, and except for the part that was sent to the court, the rest has already entered the local warehouse.

Gao Yangzhi looked back at Jingchuanhou Cao Zhen.

Cao Zhen understood immediately, and lashed his horsewhip hard.

The whip sliced ​​through the air, making a harsh, sharp hiss.The way he draws is very unique, it doesn't fall too hard on the horse, he just let the horse under his seat neigh and raise his hoofs high, and then he came to the front under the control of Cao Zhen.

Cao Zhen looked at the officials of Shanxi Province who bowed and lowered their heads in front of him, and snorted coldly: "The document sent to Taiyuan Mansion was sent and received five days ago, and there are only [-] grandsons on the northern tour. Grain and grass are only three thousand shi for rice, three thousand shi for coal frying, and five thousand shi for black beans.

Taiyuan Mansion is the Daoist Office of Shanxi, and the three divisions are gathered together. There are more than [-] people in the headquarters who need [-] stones for a month.Do you still need ten days to raise money?Who are you Shanxi Road fooling! "

Jing Chuan Hou Cao Zhen's question made Changsun Gong and others solemn for a while.

In the army of the Ming Dynasty, except for the food and grass needed by the garrison, all the food and grass needed were allocated on demand.As soon as the army horses should go out of the camp, there is a heavy camp, and one heavy camp has [-] carts to carry the food and grass needed by the army.

According to the regulations of the imperial court, each car needs to be loaded with 12 stones and buckets of fried rice, beans and coal, two stones and five buckets of rice, three stones, seven buckets and five liters of coal, and black beans with six stones and two buckets and five liters.

A heavy camp can supply 1 horses with a full load of food and grass, which can meet the needs of 1 horses for three days.

If they are marching, they can also exchange part of the rice for light cakes, which the officers and soldiers hang around their necks and eat to satisfy their hunger during the march.

But in terms of the total amount, there is a definite number.

Everything is strictly in accordance with the requirements of the imperial court.

Cao Zhen was questioning, but he was undoubtedly doubting the ability of the officials of Shanxi Province to handle errands, and by extension, he might imply that the officials of Shanxi Province were dereliction of duty.

Changsun Gong immediately said: "This year Henan was hit by a disaster, and the imperial government gave relief. Shanxi Road is a neighboring road, and the imperial court also allocated food and grass to support it. In addition, the frontier army also sent a lot from Shanxi Road.

Although the summer and autumn taxes of Shanxi Province have been completed this year, all the warehouses are nearby for expenditure, and there is no single place that can supply the general with enough food and grass alone, so it needs to be coordinated by the warehouses.

I also hope that Jing Chuanhou knows that it is not because I am incompetent in Shanxi Taoism. "

Before everything changed, and even before the situation in Shanxi Province changed significantly, Changsun Gong still maintained the humility and respect of Zhu Yunxi as a courtier.

But facing Cao Zhen, who was an official in the same dynasty, he didn't have so many scruples.In addition, Cao Zhen is still a meritorious general, so he is not on the same path as their civil servants.

Changsun Gong replied, but naturally he didn't hold back.

With an ambiguous smile in his eyes, Zhu Yunxi, who was on the horseback, looked at Changsun Gong in front of him and those officials of the Third Division of Shanxi who had never spoken.

With his palms folded together, he gently turned the whip in his hand.

"They are all officials in the same dynasty, and they are all on imperial missions. Why should they be so tit-for-tat. We should focus on harmony and work together to advance hand in hand."

Zhu Yunxi spoke lightly and nodded.

Cao Zhen groaned and said, "I'm guilty of a crime. It's just that the army is expensive and the food and grass go first. This is a truth known all over the world. Our dynasty is not the former Song Dynasty. Do we still have to make a fuss about food and grass to drag down the army?"

The eldest grandson Gong with his head down looked a little ugly. Is Cao Zhen implying that he is a gang of bastard civil servants from the former Song Dynasty?

He said in a low voice: "Since the grandson entered Shanxi, I have rushed back to Taiyuan after hearing the news. After the Taiyuan government got the order, it has been raising food and grass non-stop. I dare not slack off for a day. I dare not delay for a day, but it is not a matter of urgency. Well, if we rush to raise funds, the time or the amount will be insufficient, or the old rice, rot and beans will be sent to the army, but it will be the crime of the ministers."

No one thought that the first time Zhu Yunxi arrived in Taiyuan City, the situation seemed to be set on fire, and the atmosphere was extremely solemn and gloomy.

Behind the crowd, Li Wenxiang, who was kneeling on the ground, silently moved his knees.Although he had been prepared for a long time and added two cushions on his knees, how had he ever had such encounters and experiences.

Through the gap between the officials in front, Li Wenxiang raised his head silently and looked at the young man on horseback who was parading north at the front of the team.

Although he didn't have regular clothes on his body, he was only wearing a cotton-padded jacket, but Li Wenxiang knew that this was Zhu Yunxie, the grandson of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty who had made him wait for a long time.

Hiding behind the bowed officials gave Li Wenxiang more opportunities to move around.

He straightened up silently, his hands were tucked together in his sleeves and clenched tightly.

Today, more than ten thousand people have entered the city of Taiyuan.

Just wait for Zhu Yunxi to enter Taiyuan City and go to the banquet prepared for him today.

When the gates of various cities are blocked, they can start to mobilize, and the whole city will rise up to capture Zhu Yunxi.

At that time, it was impossible for the soldiers and horses marching in the north to enter the city. When it was dawn tomorrow, they only needed to tie Zhu Yunxi up and stand on the top of the city, so that the Beijing army outside the city would be afraid to attack them, and even be incorporated.

only……

Li Wenxiang glanced at the Shanxi officials in front of him with disgust.

These eggless things.

The plot is quite big, but he is as timid as a mouse.

He actually wanted to tie himself and Liu Zongsheng to them at that time.

Is this deception, or to leave a way out for yourself?
Li Wenxiang couldn't help feeling a little more disgusted with these civil servants and scholars.

At this time, the scene has been silent for a long time.

All of a sudden, the young general secretary and governor murmured quietly: "It's just accounting, how can it be so difficult. The imperial court has been asking officials to learn arithmetic again for the past two years. Do the officials of Shanxi Province still need to be taught? "

At this time, Cao Zhen clapped his hands and said, "Isn't this ignorant? You can't even calculate the income and exit arithmetic, so there may be problems with the accounts! Governor Wang seems to be very proficient in arithmetic, so why don't you take the accounting department with you?" People, go and check the accounts of this Shanxi Road!"

After finishing speaking, Cao Zhen stared at the officials of Shanxi Province in front of him with a rebellious posture.

Check accounts!

Suddenly the topic turned to the matter of asking Taisun Xingzai officials to check the accounts of Shanxi Road.

Those officials who kept their heads down raised their heads one after another.

No one dared to say that there was nothing wrong with the accounts under their hands.No matter how well done, mistakes and omissions can happen.

At this time, let the officials of the household department come to check the accounts of Shanxi Road, who knows what will happen.

Changsun Gong immediately glared at Cao Zhen, then waved his robe fiercely, and knelt heavily in front of Zhu Yunxi.

"Your Highness, the ministers are just raising food and grass. The time required is not enough to satisfy Marquis Jingchuan. However, Marquis Jingchuan said that he would investigate Shanxi Road. Is this doubting the loyalty of the ministers to the imperial court? Or is it implying that the ministers are corrupt to the imperial court?" Money and food? Your Highness, please make the decision for the ministers, and return the ministers to be innocent!"

Zhou Yunkun, the Inspectorate of Shanxi Road who was beside Changsun Gong, also spoke at this time: "Your Highness, the warehouses in Shanxi Road are checked every ten days by officials of the Inspectorate. How can you slander everyone in Shanxi Road with what Jing Chuanhou said?"

Zhu Yunxi turned the whip and looked at Changsun Gong and the others.

At this time, he slowly said: "Get up, if you interrupt, you will forget the business."

"I am waiting to thank Your Highness."

Until this time, Changsun Gong and others slowly got up.

It was also at this time that Changsun Gong and the others finally saw clearly the king of Jin, Zhu Bian, who was patrolling north behind Zhu Yunxie and had never shown up today or sent anyone out of the city.

Who would have imagined that King Zhu of Jin would suddenly appear in front of everyone in this situation.

And as the officials and the gentry and merchants got up, there were more noises and noises on the official road, and the gloomy atmosphere before was slightly improved.

It was too late for Changsun Gong and the others to think about it.

when people get up.

Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "How many days of food and grass are available in the army?"

Wang Xinling at the side immediately said: "It will take less than two days to return to Your Highness."

Zhu Yunxi said again: "It will take ten days for the Taiyuan government to raise a complete supply of food and grass?"

This is a question from Shanxi Province.

Changsun Gong nodded and said: "Ten days at most, I will wait a few days before urging to send more manpower, and try to prepare the amount of food and grass needed by His Highness in advance."

Zhu Yunxi said again: "In this way, if you want to continue going north, you will not be able to go."

Zhou Yunkun said softly: "Because of the proximity to Datong, there is a certain amount of food and grass in the warehouses of the county guards in the north of Taiyuan, which are military supplies. I am afraid that it will be difficult to meet the needs, and only Taiyuan City can have enough."

"Since that's the case, then we have to stay in Taiyuan City for a few days."

Zhu Yunxi sighed, a little regretful, as if he couldn't go to the border soon to prepare for the trade with Wala and conquer the Tatars.

Changsun Gong said with a smile: "Taiyuan City has prepared a temporary residence for His Royal Highness. His Highness went out of the sky all the way, passed Zhongdu, Henan Road, and then entered Shanxi. It was a hard journey all the way, and it was not worthwhile to rest for a few days. No."

Zhu Yunxi nodded.

Just when everyone thought he agreed to enter Taiyuan City for a few days.

But Zhu Yunxie suddenly said: "Since we can't leave, it's no big deal, let the people from the household department help Shanxi to prepare food and grass, and all the warehouses will go to help, so we can make preparations earlier and hurry on our way. "

Wherever these words were said, the audience was silent.

What Zhu Yunxi said means that there is nothing wrong now, so just check the accounts of Shanxi Road.

In other words.

He agreed to Jingchuanhou Cao Zhen's proposal.

We need to check the accounts of Shanxi Road.
