Chapter 39: Returning the Rain to the Sunny Advice (16)

[The second update, there is another chapter, which will be added today.] 】

The name of the new emperor has been given by Taichang Liyuan. The era name doesn't need to be used more brains and more elegant. In other words, because it is meant to be seen by the subjects of the world, the more concise and clear the intention, the better. Nowadays, there are many fortune tellers who split the word, and the quality of the year name is also measured by breaking the word.

At the end of Xining, Emperor Zhao Ji wanted to change the yuan. Taichang Rite Courtyard entered Meicheng and Fengheng for Zhao Ji to choose. In the word "Meicheng", "beauty" can be split into "sheep, big", and in the word "Cheng", there is a "Ge", and the sheep is a big encounter, which is a sign of being slaughtered, not optional. The "Heng" of "Fengheng", the following is a "go", one less horizontal than the "son", called for the son, Zhao Ji was having a headache for the emperor's heir at the time, didn't he touch the head with this year name, so he changed Yuanfeng.

This time, the Taijo Rite Temple presented three era names. It's rare to be efficient last time, but it doesn't make sense at all, and it's actually okay to be late for a month or two. It is only the middle of the year, and it will be officially changed on the first day of the first month of next year. It's not that Taizong ascended the throne, it's December, and he insisted on changing the year name.

However, since the Taijo Rite Temple has already been formulated, no one will say that it is not.

One is Yuanyou. Yuan inherits Yuanfeng, and you are blessed. I hope to continue the good years of Yuanfeng, and may God continue to bless the country.

The other is Mingtai. Because of the sun and the moon, the country and the people are safe. This is intended to flatter the Empress Taishang.

The last one is God bless Anguo.

Tianyou repeated the era name of Tang Zhaozong, but adding Anguo is not a repetition. The four-character era name was not absent before, Emperor Taizong's Taiping Xingguo is, and Zhenzong's Dazhong auspicious charm is also. Earlier, there were Taichu Yuan generals and the like. God blesses the country, that is, the emperor and the queen are blessed, and the country is stable.

The meaning is very simple, but it is not easy to make a decision at the moment.

looked at the queen for a while, and asked the courtiers below: "Which era name do you think is the best?" ”

"Your Highness, please decide for yourself. This non-courtier can put a beak. ”

Several Zaisuke all refused.

If it is a national event that concerns the interests of all parties, the courtiers listed must have some ideas. But it's just the name of the year, it's just something that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty made up, it's not in line with the ancient rites at all, it's just to establish the Chinese retrospective, and the Chinese calendar is used, that is, the Chinese courtiers, in addition, which of the Zaifu will take it too seriously? Now that I have helped make a decision, there will be no credit if I have a good omen, and if I don't do it well, it will be a trouble.

"God bless the country...... Alpha ...... Yuanyou," Xiang muttered to the queen, and suddenly asked Zhao Xu, "Official, do you think you agree?" ”

"Yuanyou." The little emperor replied.

Empress Xiang was slightly stunned, she didn't expect Zhao Xu to respond, "What is it for?" ”

"Son, listen up." Zhao Xu replied.

"Well, that's fine. It's good if the official thinks it's good. Empress Xiang didn't attach much importance to the year name, but she just felt that a few were good, and she couldn't make a decision, so she nodded and said to the courtiers, "If you don't have any opinions, then choose Yuanyou." ”

The Zaifu would not object, and Han Jiang went straight forward to receive the order.

Cai did exchange a look with Zhang Dian on the other side, the emperor is only six years old, he shouldn't be able to understand the meaning of the era name so early, right?

Just looking at Zhao Xu, who was sitting on the imperial couch with dignity, both of them couldn't help but have a thought in their hearts - this little emperor would never seem to be Renzong.

Emperor Renzong was able to sit on the throne for more than ten years, until the Empress Dowager Liu herself fell ill and died. This patience is not something that ordinary officials can have. There is also a more long-term vision and mind. can maintain the stability of the court, although there is a situation of a gentleman and a courtier, but the alternation is not so intense, and the handover ends smoothly. Although he looks cowardly, his pampered and unfazed bearing is not comparable to the previous and subsequent emperors.

And the current little emperor, although he is still far from his own government, but now he shows that he is calm and intelligent, which can not be restrained by age, and can even make people forget his age for a while.

Of course, it's too early to think so much, a new emperor, a new position, a new errand. There are more and more places to measure, no matter the east and west, it takes a lot of time to prepare, as for the choice Zhao Xu made today, there is nothing to worry about, it's still early, after all, it's still early!

After solving a few issues that don't need to be discussed at all, the next step is to move on to the formal discussion.

Cai did go out of class and said to the queen: "The reward of the hundred officials and the three armies cannot be delayed. It needs to be disseminated as soon as possible. He also asked His Highness to summon the three envoys to the palace and discuss with the two governments. ”

Empress Xiang has no opinion, and she is also in a hurry to solve the current problem. Ordering an attendant, she ordered: "Quickly go to the third division to recruit Lu Jia and ask." ”

Han Gang deliberately Shen Kuo. But Shen Kuo denied it to Wang Anshi. Lu Jia asked whether he was able to do the job, and he had a pessimistic attitude towards the queen.

In the past, it was necessary to make up for the deficit caused by the war, so it was necessary to drum up a lot of money, but such a simple thing caused the price of money in the capital to plummet. If it weren't for Han Gang's timely publication of "Money Source", how would the value of the currency in Beijing stabilize? And now it is starting to fluctuate again, which is the result of Han Gang's resignation, Lu Jia asked what the three envoys did in the middle?

Xiang Empress didn't know what kind of prescription Lu Jia could give to the imperial court's financial plan, which was already struggling, but Lu Jia asked her directly to ask for money, which was indeed expected from the queen.

Lu Jia asked, with this ability, how could there be any clever calculations all of a sudden?

"Even if Han Gang comes, he can only open the inner storehouse." Lu Jia asked and said bluntly.

Xiang snorted at the queen, she didn't believe what Lu Jia asked at all, and she didn't believe half a sentence. How could it be that at the level of Han Gang, he would only stretch his hand into the pocket of the Heavenly Family? is a son who has no income, so he will always worry about the family's money, instead of going outside to make money for the family.

She squinted at Lu Jia and asked, that's all there is to it!

Lu Jia asked about the contempt for the queen, but he didn't seem to be aware of it, and only said, "It's difficult for a good woman to cook without rice." Without money and food, how can the three armies be stable. If the three armies are not stable, the capital will be in turmoil. If the Jingshi is unstable, it will be a shock in the world. Lu Jia asked again, "What is the matter of planning, it is money and food." People, money, and things are all indispensable. ”

"Don't you know how much grain there is in the treasury in the road, and you will have to pay tens of millions of yuan to make up for it casually." complained to the queen, "After taking away the inner treasury, what does the heavenly family rely on to stabilize?" How to solve the problem of food and clothing? Don't you want the dignity of the heavenly family? ”

Lu Jia asked bitterly: "Your Highness, the country's health is decent, if the people are all complaining, even if there are thousands of dollars, what is the use?" ”

"The emperor had already agreed, and every year, 600,000 silver silk was taken out from the inner treasury to supplement the state. For the usual reward, the court takes a part, and the inner treasury takes another part. Now, 600,000 silver silks are not enough to satisfy your appetite. I don't want to pay a penny. Are you going to bully me, a woman? ”

"Your Highness is angry. This matter can be inquired about by the public. Lu Jia asked a little ruthlessly and gave Queen Xiang an idea.

Empress Xiang was not fooled, "Do you want everyone to know that the treasury is empty?" I still want the world to know the Tao, you can only cheat money from me, a woman. ”

If Empress Xiang really listened to Lu Jia's opinion, and asked everywhere how she could send the reward money without opening the inner treasury, this Empress Taishang would not go out to see the ministers in the future. It is impossible to reward hundreds of officials and three armies with a treasury, what kind of queen is this? If you are so stingy, can you still listen to politics?

Empress Xiang was very angry, and Lu Jia asked that this was not the attitude of the upper performance at all, it was completely to drag people into the water, so that people had to help him.

"His Royal Highness is angry, and Lu Jiawen is also a heart for the country, not intentionally offended." Chapters came out to support his colleagues.

"Then Zhang Qing, what do you say?" Xiang asked the queen, "The three armies to be rewarded belong to the Privy Council to control, I don't know what Zhang Qing thinks?" ”

After Zhang Dian stood up by himself, the empress's firepower was transferred to him and Han Gang, and Lu Jiawen didn't need to escort him anymore.

"Neither can the minister. Even if there is, it can't catch up with the autumn tax, and it can't catch up with the rewards that will be distributed in the blink of an eye, as the so-called far water can't quench the thirst of the near. ”

Speaking of which, it's not that you are incompetent. She complained to the queen, but she still didn't say anything. It's not her alone, and it's impossible to scold them for being incompetent in front of them. This bit of face still has to be left for Han Jiang and Cai Qu.

Just when she heard it, Lu Jia asked how she planned to mint money, and finally couldn't help it, "Minting all kinds of coins, preventing people from stealing and minting, and maintaining the value of the currency at the same time, these are what I heard from Han Shumi earlier." It's exactly the same. I wonder if Lu Qing has any other way to think of himself besides this strategy? ”

Lu Jia asked Empress Zhilu Dao to be angry, he had already been mentally prepared, no matter what he did, he would be antagonistic to others in the court. Mentioning the predecessor's strategy in front of the queen, no matter what the final result is, will anger the queen's desire to defend her old ministers......

"Of course, it's the same as the plan that Han Shumi wants to use." Lu Jiawen did not hide it, "Jia asked foolishly, and the reward of the three armies can only be thought of in the inner treasury." However, when it comes to minting money, Jia Wen has thought about it for a long time, and he has finally made up for it. ”

Where's the filling? Queen Xiang doesn't want to be angry, the sooner she solves the matter in front of her, the sooner she can end today's deliberations.

"That's it." She waved her hand with little strength.

She doesn't want to listen to Lu Jia anymore, it's all about picking up people's teeth and stealing others' knowledge, but the problem now is not to hold grievances for others, but to implement these strategies that must be effective in the capital as soon as possible, in that case, the problems that plague her will be solved.

Then, there is no need to look at Lu Jia's face too much.

In addition, since Lu Jiawen used Han Gang's strategy, she could find Han Gang to enter the Hajj and prepare for consultation, which happened to be used at this time.

With such a set strategy, she can feel at ease with the queen.
