Chapter 62 Bleeding
Yang Reform was really shaking with anger.

Is this the legendary Yanguan Advising?
Yang Reform felt that his lungs were about to explode.Even a small official dared to contradict himself. If he didn't use some means, wouldn't there be no rest in the future?Anyone can get mad at themselves?Wouldn't he be depressed to death?Someone else's doormat?Yang Reform became angry when he thought of this.I want to play real PK with that official.

It's a pity that the more angry and excited, the more clueless I am.I have the urge to smash things, and I really want to throw that little official with something.Yang Reform also thought that this is the "Forbidden City Museum", which is his home, and if he throws it away, he will throw away his own home's things. The things here will all be priceless cultural relics in later generations.

After sitting on the dragon chair and working hard for a long time, the anger gradually calmed down.It was only when he was clear-headed that he must have been a speech official who deliberately stimulated himself with fierce words in order to achieve the goal of becoming famous. Yang Reform also heard about the Ming Dynasty officials defrauding the "Tingzhang".

……

The officials below all watched eagerly as the young emperor was burning with anger and had nowhere to vent. They all guessed that it was time to release the "court stick". He looks like he is probably waiting for the emperor's court staff, and after he is done, he should be famous.

The Great Hall of Supreme Harmony Gate was so eerily quiet.

Yang Reform was tormented for a long time, thinking, although I want to write small characters to torture you people, but my intention is good, in order to save money, now I am called nonsense, and I feel aggrieved in my heart .There is nothing wrong with writing small characters, and my future generations will use even smaller characters.

Yang Reform thought for a while, and tried to calm himself down. He felt that pure anger would not solve any problems. If he had a "court rod", if he was the old Chongzhen boy with a hairy head, he would probably use it. He came from a later generation, so he naturally knew the virtues of the Ming Dynasty officials. He was a civilized person, and he didn't like spanking. Corporal punishment is wrong. Stripping other people's pants is even more rascal, so he turned to Wang Chengen and said, "My companion , is there a historian who records my words and deeds?"

Wang Cheng'en replied: "Report to Your Majesty, yes."

"Well, very good, let the historian record. In the name of diligence and thrift, I called on all the ministers to use small characters, write small characters, gather a few sheets of paper into a single sheet, and save money for the court. What... What is it called, speaking out against my advocacy of frugality, saying that I am fooling around, let him record it truthfully..."

Yang Reform's voice was not too loud, it seemed that he was only speaking to Wang Chengen.But the hall was extremely quiet, and all the officials could hear it clearly.Everyone felt chilled by His Majesty's approach.Immediately, an idiom came to mind: a bad smell for thousands of years.

The speech officer immediately turned pale when he heard what Yang Reform said to Wang Chengen. He originally wanted to use fierce words to anger the emperor and make the emperor take off his trousers and hit the board, so that he could become famous. Unexpectedly, the emperor could bear it. If I don't spank my ass, and let the historian record my objection to the emperor's advocacy of frugality, in this way, I don't have to rely on the "court staff" to gain fame, and I will be infamous for thousands of years.Immediately, I felt that the world was spinning, the emperor's method was too spicy.Suddenly fell to the ground.

Many ministers looked anxiously, seeing that their colleagues were so unsteady by the emperor, they immediately came out to intercede with the emperor, begging the emperor not to write like this, because if they write like this, this person is considered finished.For a lifetime, for a lifetime, and for the next few hundred years, he will be the object of ridicule and ridicule by others.

It has always been only the ministers who persuade the emperor to save, save, and not to be extravagant and wasteful. Now the emperor himself proposes to be thrifty and save, but there is still no way to say that it is nonsense.This, really... I can't turn my head around!Is the sun coming out of the west now?Many ministers think so.

Yang Reform didn't give these people a chance. Before they could stand up and speak, he jumped off the dragon chair and said, "Let's retreat."

……

There was a long "retreat".

The last early court in February of the first year of Chongzhen came to an end.

The words of all the ministers jumped to their lips, but the emperor retreated, holding his breath in his throat, which was very uncomfortable.Looking at the back of the emperor who turned and left, many ministers felt that the emperor was a little strange and a little incomprehensible.Many people looked at the Yanguan lying on the ground with pity, and felt that this person was very pitiful.This person is finished, very unlucky.I'm afraid I'm going to commit suicide if I can't pass tonight, many people think so.

As soon as Yang Reform left the main hall of the Supreme Harmony Gate, he calculated his loss: "Big Companion, tell me, what is Bailiang?"

Wang Chengen also had a sad expression on his face, and replied: "Return to Your Majesty, Bailiang is the japonica and glutinous rice collected from the five prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is specially used for the imperial palace and officials..."

what!It turned out to be this one!Yang Reform finally understood why those officials were complacent. It turned out that his own food supply and subsidies were gone, and he had to pay for the share of civil and military officials.Yang Reform screamed in his heart, the loss was huge, how many people in the palace depended on this for food, and how many people in the civil and military officials still needed this rice, now that it is "free", then he can do it himself After spending the money, Yang Reform felt afraid of the huge group of eunuchs and bureaucrats in the capital. There are too many people, and eating will also make him poor!

Yang Reform screamed in his heart, he was tricked by those people today, and he still doesn't know how much he lost.Then he asked Wang Cheng'en: "Dear Companion, you said it's the five mansions in the south of the Yangtze River?"

"Return to Your Majesty, yes, the Five Mansions in the South of the Yangtze River."

"I seem to have exempted four of them. Doesn't that mean that only one place is not exempted? Doesn't that mean that more than [-]% of the white grain will be subsidized?" Yang Reform lamented in his heart. He fell into someone else's trick. There is still [-]%, and the group of ministers have not done everything.

"Return to Your Majesty, yes." Wang Chengen followed Yang Reform to the early court, of course he knew how the monarch and his ministers fought, and expressed concern about the [-]% loss of white food this year.

……

Yang Reform was extremely depressed. Today he lost a lot in the case of Bailiang. He didn't win the small print who played tricks on the minister, but he got a small official. It was a small win. A draw.

Yang Reform felt that the IQ of this group of people was not low. If he was not the emperor and held the initiative and the final decision, he would probably suffer a lot if he wanted to fight against them.

……

"Then how much was the white grain in previous years?" Yang Reform was extremely depressed, so he had to calculate how much he lost today before talking.

"Returning to Your Majesty, in previous years, the amount of white grain was usually as much as 22 shi..." Wang Chengen also knew how much the news was a blow to the emperor, and when he finished speaking, his voice could not have been lowered any further.

what!A big thunderbolt!Yang Reform almost fainted. 22 shi?how much is thatWhat a huge number, as expected, I guessed it right, many people in the capital rely on this for food, and now they pay for it themselves.

"How much money do you have to pay?" Yang Reform burst into tears, my money!I was originally a slave, and you unconscionable people came to extort your own money.

Wang Chengen replied in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the price of rice in the capital has become more and more expensive in recent years, and the white rice is the best rice. I guess it is a good thing to buy it for two or three taels of silver per stone..."

Two or three taels of silver and one stone of rice... Yang Reform really collapsed.Doesn't that mean that I have to subsidize 66 taels of silver to go out?These heartless people!Sure enough, a big hole was dug for me, and I jumped down excitedly!Yang Reform burst into tears again.

"Doesn't that mean that if I want to subsidize 50%, doesn't it mean that I want to subsidize [-] taels of silver?" Yang Reform's math scores are not bad, and he quickly figured out how much he would have to pay.The group of ministers didn't do anything wrong. Of the five mansions, one mansion was reserved for the emperor to eat new rice.It was interesting enough, the emperor was not allowed to eat old rice.

"Return to Your Majesty, it seems to be..." Wang Chengen's head couldn't be lowered any more, it was almost buried in his chest. His Majesty lost a lot of money today, so don't provoke him.

What a bolt from the blue!Yang Reform really felt pain in his heart, bleeding profusely.Looking at the splendid "Palace Museum" with golden walls, I have the thought of dismantling it to sell antiques and land, and I also have the thought of standing at the gate of the "Palace Museum" to collect tickets.

Fortunately, Wang Chengen said again: "...But Your Majesty, there are still some old rice in the warehouse, you can break some out..."
