Borrow the day to change the day

"That's right, it's all banknotes printed by the imperial court, and it doesn't cost much. By the way, the concubine's father said that he would never go to the Daming Royal Bank to exchange silver taels. He promised the concubine."

Concubine Tian Gui saw that Emperor Chongzhen was a little unhappy, so she hurriedly threw out her explanation.She thought that, based on the degree of her favor, she had the guarantee of not exchanging silver taels, and she just printed a little more banknotes for use, so there should be no problem.

"Is it to exchange Daming Tongxingbao banknotes for Daming Jiusibao banknotes?" Emperor Chongzhen faintly felt that this was what Zuo Dudu wanted to ask for himself through his daughter.

"Your Majesty is wise." Concubine Tian Gui gently patted Emperor Chongzhen's flattery.

"How much do you want to change?"

"I don't know about this concubine, it seems to be only one or two carts."

No matter how worthless the Daming Tongxing treasure banknotes are, there are still a lot in the amount of one or two carts. The Zuo Dudu obviously worked hard to buy them.

Emperor Chongzhen dismissed Concubine Tian at once, sat up from the bed, and said to Concubine Tian coldly: "My father-in-law made a good idea to buy Tongxing treasure banknotes at a low price in exchange for Jiusi treasure banknotes. Will he exchange them for silver taels?" What's the difference, after using it, others will come to me to exchange it for silver taels, which is stealing money from me."

When Emperor Chongzhen said this, he shouted to the outside: "Change clothes for me." [

Concubine Tian Gui looked at Emperor Chongzhen with a pale face, and said hastily: "This concubine didn't think carefully, and this concubine will reject my father tomorrow."

She knew that her status depended on the emperor's favor, and if she lost the heart of Emperor Chongzhen, she would have nothing.

Emperor Chongzhen himself had put on his underwear, and had already stood in front of the bed, and a court lady came over to help him put on his clothes.

He looked back at Concubine Tian who was panicked on the bed, and suddenly felt that it was a bit too much, so he said in a gentle tone: "You can help me bring a message to Governor Zuo, don't try to get money from the court. The court has no money now. , I have no money, whoever pushes me too much will not end well. Tell him to dispose of the treasure in his hand as soon as possible, or you will bear the consequences."

Speaking of this, the last belt was left untied, he signaled the court lady to step aside, and said to Concubine Tian Gui while wearing the belt, "I remember that there is still something to be done, you should go to bed first."

After finishing speaking, he said to the maidservant on the side: "Put it in the imperial study."

After Emperor Chongzhen arrived at the imperial study, he found the bank report of the daily newspaper and read it.

He was worried about the war these days, so he didn't read the report that hardly changed.Concubine Tian's words just now reminded him that he hadn't learned about the bank's situation for several days.

He glanced at the situation for a few days and found that the situation of banknotes was closely related to the war. As the good news came again and again, the number of people who exchanged banknotes for silver taels decreased, and there were many people who came to exchange silver taels around noon. Also changed back to evening time.

After reading the report, Emperor Chongzhen leaned on the back of the imperial chair and closed his eyes to meditate.After all, I have done a lot of exercise and I am a little tired.

The overall victory in the Battle of Gyeonggi will let the people know that the imperial court is still strong and capable of defeating Jianlu, which is very helpful for improving the prestige of the imperial court.

Some things discussed with Master Zhong in advance must be taken advantage of this opportunity to move on. Although the people can breathe a sigh of relief after winning the battle, they can still relax. There are many things waiting to be done by themselves.

Emperor Chongzhen thought of this, rubbed his temples with his hands, and began to review the memorial that he wanted to be lazy and save until tomorrow because of his victory.

In the next few days, the capital was immersed in an atmosphere of both joy and sorrow.

The happy thing is that Jianlu was finally defeated, and there was even news that the slave chieftain had been captured, so that the land of Gyeonggi finally returned to calm. [

Sadly, the people of the capital learned of the tragic situation in the capital.Although there must be losses in the war together, they did not expect that the actual situation was far beyond their expectations.

The relatives who did not escape in time either died or were looted by the Jian captives, and nine out of ten fixed properties were completely destroyed.

Almost every household in the capital, whether they are high-ranking officials or ordinary people, has been affected by this war.

The shops in the capital that do business with dead people gradually have more customers.Although there are no people in life and no corpse in death, the burning of paper money is still being done.

The public opinion in the capital these days is basically hating Jianlu, discussing the treatment of slave chieftains who were captured alive.

Of course, there were also complaints against Yuan Chonghuan, the former governor of Jiliao.

He paid Liao's salary to be fully responsible for the war against the captives, and even embezzled the military salaries of other frontier troops to support the front line of Liaodong. In the end, he put Jianlu into the land of Gyeonggi and did not fight a single battle. He followed Jianlu to the capital .

The family who was hurt by Jianlu talked about it, saying that if Xiong Tingbi, the former governor of Liaodong, was executed a bit wrongly, Yuan Chonghuan would not be wronged no matter how he was executed.

As time went by, there were even some other remarks about Yuan Chonghuan began to spread, which made the capital hate Yuan Chonghuan even more.

These days, the whole court is also busy.Master Wang is triumphant, there are many things to prepare.

On the evening of March [-]th in the third year of Chongzhen, King Qin's army finally returned to the camp outside the capital city.

Emperor Chongzhen sent a decree to Sun Chengzong to arrange for a small number of meritorious troops to escort the leader of Jianlu and slave chieftain Aixinjueluo-Amin to the capital to sacrifice to the Taimiao and Sheji, and to present prisoners at the Meridian Gate early in the morning of the second day.

On March [-]th in the third year of Chongzhen, just after dawn, the people in the capital started to move, and got up early to occupy a good position to watch the Meridian Gate Prisoner Offering Ceremony.

Since there was a prisoner offering ceremony in the Wanli period, there has never been such a grand event.From time to time, I heard that there were defeated battles and lost cities, so that the people gradually lost confidence in the Ming army.

I don't know when it started, the army that expelled the Tartars and restored the country of the Han people actually won the battle.

In the second year of Tianqi, there was also a prisoner offering ceremony, but at that time it was only a ceremony held by the imperial court to cover up the consecutive defeats in the Liaodong battlefield.

The common people also have their own eyes to see, this kind of cover-up is not very useful, even now, the common people in the capital automatically ignore the captive offerings during the Tianqi period.

Only when a war between countries is won can it be called a victory.

For example, the victory in the war against Mongolia in the period of Taizu and Chengzu, and the victory in the war against Japan in the Wanli period are called victories.

Now he finally won another big victory and captured the slave chief alive.This allowed the people of Ming Dynasty to regain a little confidence in the army, and also saw a glimmer of hope for the peace of the Liaodong War.

After daybreak, the prisoner offering team began to enter Beijing.

Walking in the forefront were two teams of Guanning iron cavalry, led by He Kegang and Cao Wenzhao. This was a commendation for their contribution in rescuing Changli and Luanzhou in the first battle.

Needless to say, the equipment of Guan Ning's cavalry, tall horses, silver helmets and bright armor, set off the majesty of the knights, and the people on both sides applauded loudly.

Next came a team of white-rod cavalry, led by Ma Xianglin and Zhang Fengyi, who were known as the little Ma Chao.

Compared with the Guanning Iron Cavalry who had just passed by, the white pole cavalry attracted the attention of the people.Not only because they are chieftain troops, but also they all wear rattan helmets and rattan armor, holding long white spears, all the cavalry have the same solemn expression, and they are meticulous in keeping the queue moving forward, which does not show their good military discipline.

The common people praised Ma Zhang and his wife for their heroic match, but also gave warm cheers to this army of chieftains.Because they all knew that only this army made Jian Lu feel terrified.

Next came a strange army, led by a tall civil servant, followed by some civilians dressed as ordinary people.The queues are not neat, and the postures of the horsemen are also different. Obviously, they are not well-trained cavalry.

But when they appeared, the cheers of the people were the most enthusiastic.Whether it is their service or the word "Lu" on the flag, it shows that they are the heroes of this battle, the [-]-strong army who captured the slave chieftain alive.

The folks looked at the people in the capital cheering for them, and they smiled and cupped their fists in return as they were not subject to military regulations.At this moment of glory, they felt that it was worthwhile to kill the enemy with all their might.

Next is the commander in chief, the supervising army, and the generals of various walks of life. The focus of the people on these people is mainly on Zhongxinghou, the supervising army.

Many people thought that Zhong Jinwei was an existence with three heads and six arms, but when they saw him today, they realized that he was just like ordinary people.

Even so, the people in the capital did not dare to be disrespectful.It is rumored that the person who came down from the gods to assist Ziweixing is the decision maker and leader of the Qingshuimingyueguan battle, and he does not show his unique ability.

If ordinary people dare to stop more than 7000 Jian captives with [-] people?If it was an ordinary person, he could capture a slave chieftain alive who would have nothing to do with hundreds of thousands of troops?This courage, this ability, is what makes Zhongxing Hou so special.

The people in the capital looked at Zhongxing Hou in awe, but Zhong Jinwei wondered as he walked, why there was no cheering when it was his turn to play, it seemed that he was not handsome enough.
