The courtiers next to him also never expected that the auxiliary king, who had not yet officially taken office, would do things so vigorously.

As soon as Lin Zunbin turned around, someone immediately stepped forward and arched his hand: "Xiaguan Nancheng Soldiers and Horses Division commands Liao Qing." This man expected that the auxiliary king would not recognize him, so he came up and reported to his home, and then continued, "Your Highness, since the lifting of martial law in Tianxing Mansion yesterday, many people in the city have fled. By early this morning, at least nearly 30 percent of the population had left the city.

"If this trend continues, Tianxing Mansion may be an empty city! His Majesty is bold, please ask His Royal Highness the Auxiliary King to order the resumption of martial law and seal the city gates all over the city......"

Zhu Linmiao shook his head, Tianxing Mansion is the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and every move will be magnified and interpreted. Continuing to lock down the city will only make the world think that the chaos in Tianxing Mansion has not disappeared.

And it's better to be blocked, the more people are not allowed to leave, the more the people in the city feel unsteady.

His mind turned, and soon he had a plan. A message that Hong Si's missionary officials will soon be able to arrive in Fujian, and there is no more effective way to dispel the panic of the people than grassroots propaganda.

Second, he remembered that the Jianyu officers captured at Shanguan had been escorted to the left side of Tianxing Mansion. The people's hatred for the Jianguo is deep in the bone marrow, and killing these Jianguo officers to show the public can attract the people to return to the city to watch, and can also greatly boost people's confidence and morale.

Zhu Linmiao then said to Liao Qing: "I will handle this matter myself, and there is no need for martial law." ”

"This ...... Be. ”

It seems that the DPRK and China have not handled government affairs properly for a long time, and the officials are holding back their stomachs. Later, Zuo Hengji, the commander of the military department, stepped forward to play, "His Royal Highness the Auxiliary King, the lower officials have received many urgent messages from Houguan County, please send the more than 10,000 Jianjian prisoners who are temporarily detaining the Houguan to other places, and the grain and rice in the city can no longer supply so many people. ”

Zhu Linmiao frowned, not only the Hou Guan, but even the Tianxing Mansion was struggling to feed the 20,000 Cantonese prisoners, and the more than 20,000 people captured in Shanguan did not know where they were at this time.

"How is the water conservancy construction in Fujing arranged this year?" He looked at the officials in front of him.

In the middle of the night, an official who was closer to Zhu Linmiao moved half a step forward, bowed his head and said, "Your Highness, it is Yang Mingjing, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, who is in charge. ”

"What about others?"

"Back to His Royal Highness, Yang Mingjing is a rebel party of the Tang Dynasty, and he should be at home to participate in ......"

The Ministry of Industry seems to be Huang Daozhou, Zhu Linmiao just turned his head, and saw Huang Daozhou step forward and said: "The old minister will make someone come up with a water conservancy plan as soon as possible." ”

Zhu Linmiao nodded and said: "The prisoners captured by the Hou Guan, Tianxing Mansion and Shanguan are all sent to various places to be used as coolies, and the food is paid from the water conservancy silver. In addition to water conservancy, it can also ask the old Huangge for people if it is needed. ”

Huang Daozhou hurriedly said: "Old minister, remember. It's just that," he muttered again, "this water conservancy project requires a lot of silver." ”

Zhu Linmiao sighed helplessly and said, "I'll give you 100,000 taels first, and then I'll discuss it later." ”

"The old minister obeys."

"Your Highness......" Someone immediately stood up again.

In this way, it was not until it was close to supper that the courtiers left without getting enough of it.

This half-day work is like holding a court meeting at the gate of King Chen's mansion. When he returned to the palace study, Zhu Linmiao was already tired and sweating.

If he doesn't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive, he has a lot of power, and Fang Jue has so many trivial things, but the core problem still falls on the silver.

The Longwu Dynasty was poor, and the Taizheng Dynasty was even more so, and the treasury was so empty that the rats starved to death. Even after today's "temporary court meeting", there is a gap of nearly one million taels in all the places that need silver!

"My lord, are you looking for me?" Zhang Jiayu waved at the door of the study.

"Oh, Motoko come in." Zhu Linmiao hurriedly beckoned, "Did you bring the ledger?" ”

Zhang Jiayu knew that what he was talking about was the "subsidy for grain, rice, and silver" promised by the officials of Tianxing Mansion when the Longwei army was besieging the city. He hurriedly took out a booklet from his sleeve, "Hui Lord, it's by your side." ”

"How much silver do the city officials have to 'donate' in total?"

"Sixty one hundred and seventy-seven thousand four hundred taels."

"These guys are quite rich." Zhu Linmiao smiled and asked again, "How many have been received so far?" ”

"This ...... Only less than 80,000 taels. ”

"Oh?" Zhu Linmiao frowned and said, "I'll use this money in a hurry." He looked at Zhang Jiayu, "Yuanzi, you have only been responsible for urging the silver recently, the sooner the better!" If there is an obstacle, report it to me at any time. ”

"Yes!"

After dinner, Zhu Linmiao didn't take a breath, and Shi Lin said that Lu Zhenfei wanted to see him.

One of the three divisions of the Ming Dynasty should be an important matter. Zhu Linmiao had to cheer up and said, "Please." ”

Lu Zhen flew into the study and paid his respects. Zhu Linmiao hurriedly helped him up, instructed his subordinates to look at the tea, and asked Lu Zhenfei again: "What happened to the Lu Pavilion Department?" ”

Lu Zhenfei took out a three-folded post and presented it to him, "Xiaguan does have an urgent matter." ”

Zhu Linwei was a little puzzled, Lu Zhenfei was also there in the afternoon "Chaohui", why did he have to wait until this time to say.

He opened the fold and saw that it was densely packed with names, and he looked up at Lu Zhenfei, "This is?" ”

"This is the list of officials of the Tang Rebellion Party, and I would like to ask Your Highness to show me, how to punish them?"

Zhu Linmiao frowned, and threw the roster on the case, "Most of these people are just standing on the wrong team, except for Su Guansheng, Wang Yinghua, Su Ping and others who are the leaders and handed over to the Criminal Department to deal with them according to the law, the rest don't have to make a big move." ”

Zhu Yuao is a relative of the Ming royal family in the end, and the officials who defected to him can still be forgiven to a large extent, after all, this is a family matter within the Ming Dynasty.

What's more, Empress Dowager Zeng is also really disappointing, Zhu Linmiao has heard that she sold her title, so it is no wonder that the courtiers will do what they think.

He immediately took down another roster from the bookshelf and handed it to Lu Zhenfei, and said coldly: "Compared to it, these talents should be dealt with strictly!" ”

Lu Zhenfei unfolded the piece of paper in surprise, couldn't help but widen his eyes, pointed to the names on it and said, "This Wang Jin, Hu Chengxian and others are all clear, and their official reputations are also good." This Liu Zhiyu is an old minister beside the first emperor, I don't know why His Royal Highness wants to ......"

Zhu Linmiao rummaged through a wooden box again, quickly found Liu Zhiyu's letter, and threw it to Lu Zhenfei, "Lu Gebu will look at it for yourself." ”

"Greetings to Your Excellency General Zhengnan. Respect His Majesty the Emperor, inherit the heavens and the heavens...... Returning to sincerity, the whole world celebrates. Lu Zhenfei was shocked, looking at the final payment, it was indeed Liu Zhiyu's own handwriting.

He looked at the roster in his hand again, and said bitterly, "Are these people all ......?"

"All traitors!"

"Then what does His Highness mean......" Lu Zhenfei was halfway through speaking, and he already knew the answer when he saw Zhu Linmiao's cold expression. He nodded slowly, put away the roster and said, "Xiaguan will do it." ”

Zhu Linmiao said to Shi Lin at the door of the study: "Let Yu Xin bring a battalion to assist the Lu Pavilion Department." ”

"Yes!"
