Hou Sui hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the minister knows, Yongxing Bank, you are the major shareholder, but after all, there are still many people who invest money there, and it is a concentration of the hard-earned money of many ordinary people, you have borrowed no less than three million taels of silver from Yongxing Bank in order to rectify the three towns of Nanjing and the imperial sailors, and now you have to borrow another five million taels, this Yongxing Bank has a solid foundation, I am afraid that it will not be able to support such a toss, once it triggers a run on the people, I am afraid that overnight, it will collapse, and when the time comes, This is a catastrophe that shakes you ...... very much."

Zhu Jie shook his head and replied: "Okay, Lord Hou, don't say it, the sky can't fall, just do what I say, your duty is to be a good home for me, spend all this silver on the blade, and ensure that every tael of silver is not allowed to be used in the most critical place, this family is not easy to do, that's it, let's disperse!" ”

In one breath, I borrowed Wu Baiwan taels of silver from Yongxing Bank, five million taels, which can be compared with the tax intercepted by Shandong, and even higher than a catastrophe, with these five million taels of silver, it may not be able to support the next year, but for most of the year, there must be no problem, and in the second half of the year, the silver of various commercial taxes will be slowly made up......

After the court discussion, Zhu Jie can finally relax for a while, these days, he is simply eating and living in Fengtian Palace, and even the pregnant queen mother has no time to take a look, and he must go over to report today.

Nanjing's Forbidden City, the front is somewhat different from the Forbidden City of Beijing, but the harem is very similar, in the middle is the Qianqing Palace, Kunning Palace and Jiaotai Palace, on both sides are the Rouyi Palace and the Chunhe Palace, now the queen Lin Lan lives in the Qianqing Palace, and the concubine Chen Yuanyuan lives in the Kunning Palace, but now the two sisters are like a person, Zhu Jie rarely goes back to the harem on weekdays, Chen Yuanyuan sometimes even lives in the Qianqing Palace, and does not return to his Kunning Palace, and the two of them can just be a companion.

Zhu Jie hurried to the Qianqing Palace, and the eunuchs had already sent Xin'er in.

Lin Lan and Chen Yuanyuan hurriedly greeted them, bowed down slightly, and said with a smile: "The concubine greets the emperor's holy drive!" ”

Zhu Jie hurriedly hugged Lin Lan and said with a smile: "Okay, your belly has gradually grown now, how can you be so careless?" Sit well, old husband and wife, still use all this red tape? ”

Chen Yuanyuan on the side smiled and said, "Old husband and wife? Hehe, it seems that since you got married, your majesty hasn't stayed with our sisters for a few days, right? Old husband and wife? Hmph, too, it's because of the old husband and wife, so I forgot about our sisters, you say, we've been back for more than half a month, and you've only come back twice, right? ”

Zhu Jie's face was a little embarrassed, and he lamented: "Do you think I am still as relaxed as when I was in the capital?" Now the life and death of the thousands of Ming ministers are all happy with me alone, even if they want to be intimate with you in this Qianqing Palace for a while, the courtiers below will not do it, do you think this emperor and queen are so easy to do? ”

"Stop complaining here!"

Chen Yuanyuanqiong's nose wrinkled, and said with a smile: "Who rarely makes love to you, I mean sister, now my sister has a big belly, it is when someone needs to care, but in the past two or three months, I can't see your figure, it's really ......"

Zhu Jie smiled, put his hand on Chen Yuanyuan's slightly bulging belly, stroked it gently, and asked, "Isn't this a concern?" Lan'er, these days, but what's wrong? If there's anything, just call the people below, I can't stay by your side lately......"

Lin Lan's eyes are full of happiness, women are like this, with a son, who cares about her husband's life or death?

"Your Majesty, the concubines don't have anything, anyway, they don't have to worry about food and clothing, they come to open their mouths for food, and they come to stretch out their hands for clothes, at least, the concubines are accompanied by the children in their wombs, look at the round sisters, people are constantly complaining to the concubines that you are favoritism......"

Zhu Jie laughed and said: "Haha, Lan'er, I can't be satisfied with such a thing as being by your side all the time, but if I don't favor one over the other, it's still difficult for me to drop, isn't it just to let this girl also conceive a dragon species, there are opportunities, and there is time ......."

Chen Yuanyuan looked embarrassed, and said angrily: "Sister, you are laughing at me again!" The emperor is good at everything, but he never counts when he speaks! Got time? Okay, Your Majesty, you should stay in the harem for two days to show your concubines? Hum! ”

Zhu Jie said helplessly: "My eldest lady, now the Central Plains are turned upside down, Xu Yifan led a hundred thousand Tianwei troops to fight with the Tartars, a few days ago, I even sent Qin Mufeng to the former enemy, just more than ten days for you, that kid broke through because of Liu Zeqing's rebellion and serious injuries, and he can't go down to the ground until now, and he is being escorted back to Nanjing......"

"What? General Cha Bolt is seriously injured? How is this possible? ”

Lin Landeng's eyes widened, his face was full of incredulity, and he exclaimed, and Chen Yuanyuan on the side was also frightened.

In the eyes of the two women, especially in the eyes of Lin Lan, Xu Yifan, Qin Mufeng and Song Jiaxing, these are the four trump cards in the hands of the emperor are all fierce generals who can take charge on the battlefield, how long has it been, and Cha Zhu has been seriously injured and defeated, so, that Tartar is really so difficult to deal with?

"Alas......"

Zhu Jie rubbed his temples and sighed: "It's not just the bolt, not long after the fall of Dongchang Mansion, in order to prevent the Tartars from going south, Lord Xiao Ting led the five thousand elites of the Tianwei Army to fight a decisive battle with the main force of the Tartars in the south of the Daimyo's Mansion, and the five thousand elites died in a battle, and even General Xiao Ting was also killed in battle, the situation is much more severe than you imagined, otherwise I would not have pulled Mu Feng to the front enemy, originally I left him to let him help Inspector Sun control the overall situation, Liu Zeqing, Liu Zeqing, this damn scum, I this time." , I will never spare him! ”

No wonder, no wonder, in the past half a month, the emperor only showed his face twice when the two of them returned, and then disappeared, it turned out that the war ahead had become tense like this!

"Oh, Your Majesty, can't this, can't this be peaceful? The concubines heard that the previous dynasty often met and made peace, and even Tang Taizong had any Tanyuan Alliance......"

Chen Yuanyuan said in a snort.

"What do you know about a woman's family!"

Zhu Jie suddenly shouted, "Negotiate peace? The Tatars were determined to be in the Ming Dynasty, trying to turn the entire Han people into their slaves and make cattle and horses for them! Peace? Negotiate peace, unless you really die in battle! ”
