Chongzhen saw the truth of what Mao Yujian said, and felt that he seemed to have been negligent about the post station before, and it seemed that it was really going to the point of rectification.

So Chongzhen said to the civil and military officials: "Mao Aiqing played, what do the Qing family think?" ”

Ministers, look at me, I'll look at you, and soon, Qian Qianyi, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, stood up and gave a salute to Chongzhen first.

Then he said: "Back to the emperor, the minister thought that Mao Yushi's performance was pure nonsense, and it was really a child's words." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

As soon as these words came out, Mao Yujian was angry and almost jumped up, if you don't approve, you don't approve, you say that I am a child's words, this is not a scolding! If it weren't for the fact that you were the leader of Shilin, I would have fought with you!

Mao Yujian pressed down the anger in his heart, and said to Qian Qianyi: "The lower officials are not talented, I would like to hear Lord Qian's high opinions!" ”

Qian Qianyi smiled slightly and said: "Master Mao also said just now, the post station is an important place to deliver envoys, transmit military information, and transfer military supplies. ”

After Qian Qianyi finished speaking, many officials nodded in response,

"Yes, yes, my Daming post stations are all over the world, there is one every thirty miles, and a sentence of "dismissal" will drive them home, isn't it child's play. ”

"That is, this post station existed thousands of years ago, and it is really nonsense that such an important institution was cut down."

Qian Qianyi said again: "This post station is the key to delivering the news, once it is abolished, how will this imperial decree be transmitted?" How is the emergency report transmitted? These are all major matters related to the safety of my Daming, how can I be sloppy! ”

Mao Yujian was speechless for a while, and after half a sound, Mao Yujian said again: "But what Xia Guan just said is true, this post station is already a face to face, this is always indisputable." ”

Qian Qianyi smiled again and said: "When Emperor Taizu Gao established this post station all over the world, it took a lot of effort, and if there was a little problem, it would all be abolished, and the official asked Lord Mao a word, there are still many fake silver and fake copper among the people, and how many people have lost their lives for this, is it simply abolished, so that the silver and copper coins will no longer circulate as coins, so that there are no such things!" ”

This Qian Qianyi really deserves to be the leader of Shilin, with a mouth that can turn the sky upside down and smash the ground below, he is really eloquent.

At this time, Liu Mao saw that Mao Yujian was weak, so he stood up and supported Mao Yujian, only to hear him say: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the matter of the abolition of the post station has reached the point of urgency, and the corruption of this post station is not a day or two, it is a stubborn disease that has been piled up for hundreds of years, if it is not rectified as soon as possible,

I am afraid that it will be difficult to return in the future, and I can't cure it if I want to cure it, and besides, if the post station is abolished, millions of silver can be saved every year. ”

When Chongzhen heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he could save millions of taels of silver every year!

Now Chongzhen is almost forced to sleep by the silver, if the abolition of the post station can save so much money, then why not!

At this time, the head of the household department Bi Ziyan saw Chongzhen's intentions, and he couldn't sit still, can this silver be saved? If you want to save, that's not now!

So Bi Ziyan stood up and said to Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, what Lord Mao said is indeed true, now the post station is already rotten, and the court uses nearly two million taels of silver on the post station every year, think about it, it is indeed innocent and wasted,"

Mao Yujian listened, and was immediately overjoyed, this Bi Ziyan is a scholar of the household department, and an old minister with military merits and prestige, it was Wei Zhongxian who was in charge back then, so he couldn't help it, and finally asked the Emperor of the Apocalypse, this is to make Bi Ziyan angry, you can imagine how great Bi Ziyan's ability is!

He is speaking for himself now, which is undoubtedly a lot of points for himself, how can he not like this!

But Bi Ziyan immediately changed his words and said: "But this post station is not a child's play, now there are Tartars outside the customs to make trouble, and there are many rebels gathering in the place, how can the post station be abolished during such a period!" Isn't that self-defeating? ”

Chongzhen also felt justified when he heard it, but after talking about this for a long time, do you approve or disapprove? You important minister of the court, you can't be without an attitude!

Bi Ziyan didn't let Chongzhen wait too long, just expressed his opinion, and only listened to him say: "The minister thinks that the matter of this post station is still waiting until the traitors are eliminated and the situation outside the customs is acceptable, so let's go and slowly rectify it, but don't be in a hurry!"

Once you are a little careless, let the traitor become bigger, let the tartar get a gap, the consequences are unimaginable, so the time is not yet ripe, and I hope the emperor will see it. ”

When Qian Qianyi heard this, since he was opposed to abolishing the post station now, it was on my side, so Qian Qianyi also hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, what Lord Bi said is extremely true, now that the state affairs are complicated, where can the post station be abolished, it is not too late to wait until the traitors are eliminated to discuss this matter." ”

Chongzhen couldn't make up his mind for a while, this post station is indeed a big deal, there are so many post stations in Daming, if this is abolished, how will they live!

Besides, when I heard this, it involved many people, and if this matter is done in a hurry, it is indeed difficult to do!

But I thought that if the post station was abolished, then nearly two million taels of silver per year could be saved to supplement Liaodong, so wouldn't it be much easier.

At this time, Liu Mao said again: "Your Majesty, now my Daming Post Station is used for official business on weekdays, and seven or eight out of ten for private affairs, so how can I turn a blind eye to such a waste of money and food from the treasury!" The post station is already a trend of corruption, and the emperor is requested to rectify it as soon as possible to solve the people's suffering! ”

Mao Yujian also hurriedly said: "What Lord Liu said is for the country and the people, and now the post station is already a moth of the country, like a bloodsucking ghost, how can you let it go, and ask the emperor to make a clear decision!" ”

Qian Qianyi saw them like this, and saw that Chongzhen seemed to have an idea, so he was also anxious, and hurriedly said: "The emperor can't listen to what they say, the matter of the post station is very involved, if there is no perfect plan, it still can't be moved!" ”

Many other officials also expressed their positions, bluntly saying that the matter of the post station is very important and must not be moved lightly.

Just kidding, everyone is a broad travel, where in the world there are no friends of the same year, I don't know how many places to move around in a year, if there is no convenience of the post station, not only the loss of income in vain, but also another pocket, who wants to!
