After the boy finished speaking, he waved his hand and went on the road.

When he went to Beijing to take the exam, the boy didn't bring anything else, but just tied the hair that the young lady gave him around his neck seriously.

Soon after the young lady first started to learn martial arts, one day he accompanied the young lady to touch the shrimp, and the two of them sat by the river, took off their shoes, and soaked their calves in the river water, which was cool and cool.

The young lady turned her head and said to him: I want to marry a hero like my father in the future, and he must have good martial arts.

The boy looked at the fish swimming in the river and splashed them away.

Miss was furious: Did you hear me?

The boy smiled and touched Miss's head.

He had never done this before, and the young lady was stunned.

He got up and went back.

He refused to practice martial arts, and the young lady beat him.

That was the last time the young lady hit him.

At last, the red rope that tied the hair fell.

When the exam was about to start, the young man calmed down and gently touched the hair on his chest.

No one thought that the army of the neighboring country would attack during the time of the Beijing Division, and when the emperor reacted, the army of the neighboring country had already taken five cities in a row.

The general went out on the expedition and was captured.

The general's daughter petitioned to go on the expedition, and the emperor agreed.

The day after the expedition, the emperor's list came out, who knew that people had been looking for a long time, and they couldn't find the missing Tanhua.

What happened later, Miss felt that she would never forget it in her life.

She was eager to save her father, but she was accidentally ambushed by the enemy. Besieged, food and grass cut off.

Helpless, she went into battle to single-handedly challenge the enemy generals.

She had not eaten for a long time, and she was about to die under the sword of the enemy general.

A flying arrow strikes and knocks down the opponent's sword.

A figure rode in front of him.

There were many figures in the distance, all of them were good hands, and they broke through the encirclement of the enemy army at once.

The enemy will be terrified, and ask who you are.

First, one person laughed forward, "I killed pigs in the young lady's house." ”

Another person: "I'm a cook at the young lady's house." ”

"I made furniture for Miss."

"Miss's clothes were washed by my mother."

After a hundred people, the man in the green shirt in front of him smiled and said, "I am from the family of Miss Teacher." ”

At last the man finished speaking, and the sword reached the neck of the enemy general.

The green shirt, the sword, the white horse neighed, and the boy was like a hero of the world.

"Miss, let's go home."

It turned out that late at night when the boy was ten years old, the boy went to the martial artist's room and said to the martial artist: "Sir, I want to practice martial arts." ”

Wu Shi Qi said: "Why don't you say it during the day?" ”

"My father doesn't allow it, but I want to practice martial arts." Juvenile Road.

The martial artist said: "Martial arts training is very hard. ”

"The woman can stand it, why can't I?" The boy smiled.

Since then, the wind has been blowing every night, and the young man has been diligent in learning martial arts at night when no one is seeing.

That year, Miss was nine years old, and Miss also did something that the teenager did not know, "Sir, I want you to teach me to read, I want to learn some poetry, but I always don't understand it on weekdays." ”

After Wei Bao finished speaking, he looked at Zhuo Liktu and Ulan Tu Yaqiqige.

Zorictu didn't understand at all, and didn't know what it had to do with the love token.

Ulan Tuya Qiqige asked as if he didn't understand: "Is this story finished?" ”

"Well, the story is over, this is a story about a love token." Wei Bao laughed.

"Do you want to say that what both of them do for each other is the best token of love?" Ulan Tuyaqiqige asked.

This answer is actually not complicated, but Wei Bao is still a little surprised, because Ulan Tuyaqiqige is a Mongolian girl, and it is not easy to speak fluent Chinese, and she has a very thorough understanding of the meaning of Chinese.

It's a girl with a wise root.。

This point has increased Wei Bao's impression of Ulan Tuyaqige a lot.

Originally, the matter was a foregone conclusion, Wei Bao's marriage to Ulan Tu Yaqiqige was basically decided, the Mongols attached importance to commitments, and Wei Bao also attached importance to commitments, and it was necessary to rely on Zhuoliktu to open up arms sales, which was a win-win situation and would not change.

So Wei Bao has already treated Ulan Tuya Qiqige as his own woman.

The world is unpredictable, although I have only known each other for a short time, but this woman is destined to become one of his many women.

After Wei Bao accepted the other party in his heart, it was easier to see the advantages of the other party.

"Yes, as long as you have a heart, the sincerity you are willing to pay for each other is the best token of love!" Wei Bao Road.

"I see." Ulan Tuya Qiqige glanced at Wei Bao deeply, rarely showing a shy expression, but with a shallow smile, obviously the girl was very happy in her heart.

Wei Bao agreed with her, and she didn't agree with Wei Bao.

The banquet was very enjoyable.

Wei Bao was drunk, and Zhuo Riktu also drank seven or eight points.

But Zhuo Liktu refused Wei Bao's invitation, did not stay on the ship for the night, but left, and persuaded Wei Bao not to delay in Xiaoling River, saying that Lord Wei was noble and should go back as soon as possible.

In fact, Zhuo Liketu was afraid that Jiannu would be unfavorable to Wei Bao when he heard the news, or Lin Dan Khan might also hijack Wei Bao's Tang monk meat.

Wei Bao is now in the eyes of many people, and his value is really no less than that of the Ming Emperor.

Because if the Emperor of the Apocalypse Zhu Youxiao is kidnapped, he may not be able to get much gold and silver, the Ming Dynasty is poor, and the court can't get much gold and silver, everyone knows.

And with the degree of control of the Ming Dynasty, even if the Emperor of the Apocalypse said that he would cut out that large piece of territory to whom, this kind of thing would just be heard.

There are powerful gentry groups everywhere in the Ming Dynasty, and without strong strength, no matter how beautiful the promises are, they are just empty words.

On the contrary, the Ming court did not say that Liaonan would be given to Wei Bao, but Liaonan was outside the pass, and Wei Bao had already actually controlled Liaonan, and the Ming court gradually realized this situation.

Last year, he also sent the governor of southern Liaoning, and the officials of the prefecture and county next week were simply withdrawn this year, whatever Wei Bao did.

It's not that Zhu Youxiao has unconditional trust in Wei Bao, or Wei Zhongxian has unconditional trust in Wei Bao, but they are really lazy to be distracted about things outside the gate.

In their eyes, Wei Bao and Mao Wenlong are the same.

If you can make a piece of territory outside the customs, you are all capable people, let those who have the ability toss it by themselves!

In addition, Mao Wenlong has been reaching out for silver and food, and Wei Bao doesn't want anything, so they don't want to send officials in southern Liaoning.

Because of the stationed officials, the officials actually had no control over the locality, and they kept helping Wei Bao to ask the imperial court for silver and grain, they were afraid that after a long time, Liaonan would be in the same trouble as the area controlled by the Dongjiang Army.

What's more, southern Liaoning is much larger than the area controlled by the Dongjiang Army.

If you really get out of the army, I don't know how much it will cost Daming!

Therefore, this year, Daming simply left Liaonan completely alone, and tacitly accepted that Liaonan was controlled by Wei Bao.

Lin Wenbiao arranged for Lord Wei's fleet to return to Shanhaiguan overnight.

By the early morning of the third day, Lord Wei's fleet returned.

As soon as Lord Wei arrived at Shanhaiguan, he received a secret letter from Emperor Zhu Youxiao of the Apocalypse who asked Wei Zhongxian to send someone.

Wei Bao thought something was wrong and opened it to see.

It was actually Zhu Youxiao's handwritten letter, Zhu Youxiao has no culture, and the words are really good, strong and powerful, and the water chestnuts are distinct.

What an artist who has been delayed by being an emperor.

Wei Bao thought to himself, if Zhu Youxiao was born in modern times, whether it was calligraphy or sculpture, he would definitely be everyone, even if he was just a folk artist, his life would be very rich.

Zhu Youxiao's letter was very simple, asking Wei Bao how things were going on in Liao? asked him when he would come to Liaodong and personally officiate the marriage between him and Zhao Jinfeng.

Wei Bao was secretly amused when he saw it, thinking that the emperor was really concerned about his own affairs.

However, Wei Bao was also a little difficult and didn't know how to reply to Zhu Youxiao.

Because Zhu Youxiao asked about time, he must answer a specific time, or approximate time.

That's really hard to answer.

So Wei Bao could only reply, saying that it was not good, and complaining.

I want money and food.

But Wei Bao knew that there would definitely be no money and food.

On the one hand, Zhu Youxiao really didn't have any silver, and he didn't have much surplus food for Wei Bao.

There is also a reluctance to give, and the emperor is very picky.

After Zhu Yijun's death, his eldest son Zhu Changluo died of illness only one month after he ascended the throne. The newly appointed Ming Xizong Zhu Youxiao was young and ignorant, and the eunuchs led him to play all day long in order to steal the handle and gain power.

Emperor Zhu Youxiao of the Apocalypse likes to do carpentry work, and Wei Zhongxian brought Zhang Shujuan to him to make a decision when he was playing with an axe and saw.

Zhu Youxiao often only listened to the gist of the oral report, that is, he replied casually: "I know everything, you go with your heart." ”

So the power fell, and the eunuchs controlled the government.

The eunuch Wei Zhongxian colluded with Xizong's Omke clan to recruit power and bribes, and made state affairs corrupt.

A group of shameless people who were attached to Wei Zhongxian also praised his merits, and even called him "Chitose" and "Nine Thousand Years Old".

At a banquet, someone chanted in front of Xizong and Wei Zhongxian: "Good father-in-law Wei, how to deal with the merchant, how to deal with the merchants, how to accumulate rice in the inner treasury, how to eliminate cheats in the East Factory, and how to prosper the country and trade in Baohedian." Repair the government inside, and the frontier outside. ”

Wei Zhongxian listened to such a sensual flattery and handled it calmly, and Zhu Youxiao was also dumbfounded and laughed.

Local officials in various provinces also flocked to Wei Zhongxian, and prayed for him to build a shrine, which was extremely gorgeous.

As a result, the party struggle between the government and the opposition intensified.

The Donglin Party used lectures and associations to comment on the government and politics, hoping that the emperor could get rid of the evil spirits, reorganize the dynasty, and realize the rule of the Qingming officials.

The evil forces attached to Wei Zhongxian formed a eunuch party and persecuted the Donglin party.

Since then, the party struggle at the end of the Ming Dynasty has been repeated and continued until the fall of the Southern Ming Dynasty.

What is good at the top will be very bad at the bottom.

Mingshenzong, Wei Zhongxian, etc. were greedy for money, so they naturally went up and down, and developed a corrupt atmosphere, and there was a "government with money, and government with bribes." ”

During the Apocalypse, Huang Zunsu once said: "The matter of worship is said to use tens of thousands of gold."

In this regard, he couldn't help sighing: "Woohoo, the beginning is not right, as a city, I have a considerable career!" ”

Wei Zhongxian appointed Zhou Yingqiu, a eunuch, as the secretary of the ministry, and openly demanded a price according to the size of his official position, and received a bribe of 10,000 taels of silver every day, known as Sunday 10,000.

After the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the annexation of land from the royal family to the gentry and landlords became more and more rampant, and they relied on political power to occupy a large number of official and private land.

The emperor set up many imperial estates in the Kisuke region.

The kings, relatives, and eunuchs of the clan also occupied large tracts of land across counties through "begging" and accepting "contributions", becoming the largest land occupants in the country.

The land occupied by the clan. In May of the 34th year of Wanli, the Sichuan patrol according to Kong Zhenyi's words: Shu used to have a fertile field, but only Chengdu Prefecture belonged to it, and it was named Yan because it arrived in Peng 11 Prefecture County to open a weir irrigation field. Nearly for the palace there are tithes, military tithes two, and the people are only tithes.

The Shu king's mansion occupied 70 percent of the most fertile land in the Chengdu Plain, which was irrigated by Dujiangyan.

King Zhou of Kaifeng, Henan, as a result of the annexation of land, caused "all the children of the field to enter the office, and the people were extremely resentful". There are poems in the time: "Zhongzhou is half into the feudal mansion", "But the rest of Fangcao Wang Sun Lu does not enter the house of Emperor Zhumen." ”

Shenzong's younger brother Zhu Yiyi divided Wei Hui and occupied 40,000 hectares of land; The sons of the Divine Sect also followed suit.

Fu Wang Zhu Changxun was the beloved son of Shenzong, and the imperial court insisted on giving 40,000 hectares of land according to the standard of King Lu, which was reduced to 20,000 hectares after the efforts of courtiers and local officials.

King Rui was divided into Hanzhong, Shaanxi, and the imperial court gave 20,000 hectares of land, which was paid by Shaanxi, Henan, Shanxi, and Sichuan.

Roughly speaking, except for the wealthy areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, a considerable part of the country's land fell into the hands of the Zhu clan. The fields encroached upon by the lords and eunuchs were mainly in the Kisuke area. Relying on their close relationship with the emperor, they grabbed large tracts of land to build farms by begging and other means. For example, during the reign of Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty, the eunuch Gu Da used "the name of false land survey, mixed with the industrial village to more than 10,000 hectares, and the embezzlement and deception of the official silver to more than one million".

Wei Zhongxian, the power supervisor, alone occupied as many as 10,000 hectares of land.

In the early years of Jiajing, Lin Jun pointed out in Shuzhong: In recent years, the princes and uncles of the emperor have been tired of playing with their favor. The imperial court favored Youlong and gave it unkept, and most of the land it gave was donated by others to seize the private industry. For example, Qingyang Bo was donated by the traitor Li Zheng and others, and played more than 5,400 hectares of land in the three counties of Qingdu, Qingyuan and Qinghe; For example, Changning Bo was donated by the traitor Wei Zhong and others, and entered more than 1,900 hectares of Jingzhou, Dongguang and other counties; For example, commanding Shen Chuan, Wu Rang, and Feng Zhongming, who were traitors, to surrender more than 6,500 hectares of land in Cangzhou and Jinghai counties.

The trend of relying on the situation and begging continued until the end of the Ming Dynasty.

In the third year of Chongzhen, Zhu Youzhen's father-in-law, Jiading Bo Zhoukui, once "begged for 700 hectares of land, and followed 30 lieutenants." ”

These examples illustrate the role of political forces in the process of land annexation.

The finance of the Ming Dynasty was mainly based on the natural color in the early stage, that is, rice, cloth and other physical objects, and after the middle period, with the development of the commodity economy, the status of silver and other folded colors gradually rose, and became the main embodiment of the country's revenue and expenditure.

Roughly speaking, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Industry, Guanglu Temple, and Taifu Temple are respectively in charge of government expenditures, and the main ones are the Tai Warehouse of the Household Department.

The taxes collected from the mining and metallurgy and the gold and silver converted from the grain were routinely sent to the inner transport warehouse, except for a small part of the Yulu as military ministers, most of them were for the emperor's private property, which was generally called the internal treasury.

Because the emperors of the middle and late Ming Dynasty spent money like dirt, more than one million taels of gold and silver could not satisfy their desires every year.

Since the beginning of Ming Wuzong, he has continuously withdrawn Taicang silver for internal use.

During the Wanli period, Ningxia, Korea, and Banzhou successively used troops and spent a lot of military spending.

Zhu Yijun also demanded more than 10 million taels of silver from the household in the name of weddings, jewelry, robes, etc.

In addition, the construction projects such as the Qianqing Palace were carried out, and in the end, "Taicang, Guanglu, and Taifu took out a few of the silver", and the state finances could not make ends meet.

Originally, each province, prefecture, prefecture, and county also had its own small family foundation for local needs.

Later, several orders were issued to transfer the Tibetan silver from the outer treasury to the household department.

For example, in the sixth year of the Apocalypse, according to the suggestion of Fan Jishi, the imperial history of Caojiang in Nanjing, Xizong Zhu Youxiao issued an edict saying: "The construction of the temple of Zhensi is prosperous, and the cost is huge, although it will not be completed today, but the amount of silver owed has reached several to 200,000. If you don't do your best to check and check in many ways, the big work will be lost, and the frontier will be in peace. It is not the bosom of the three dynasties, nor is it the friendship that the subordinates come to offer. ”

Therefore, he ordered all localities to step up the search, and all the Tibetan silver was sent to the Beijing Division.

This kind of practice of doing everything in the world to serve one person has finally led to internal and external difficulties and hastened the total bankruptcy of the state's finances.

The state finances were in a desperate situation, and the emperor was reluctant to take out the internal money, so in order to meet the increasing military expenditure, the imperial court continued to pay taxes.

This made Wei Bao ask for money and food, but he was just complaining.
