"Good!"

Chongzhen's face turned red with excitement, finally, the court finally saw an official who relieved his wealth and solved difficulties, Zhu Jie, did not disappoint me!

Chongzhen stood up and shouted: "Zhu Aiqing is loyal to the monarch and the country, and he can be called an example of a hundred officials, and I am allocating 30,000 taels of silver from among my inner sons, no, 60,000 taels!" It's a big deal, I'll throw all my family into it, and I definitely can't make Beijing a ghost! ”

The ministers in the palace pouted their lips one by one and wiped it, this country is your Zhu family's country, not our Chen family, not our Deng family, not our Tang family, you pay the silver is your business, anyway, we don't pay it!

In the entire hall, in the end, more than a dozen ministers stood up and pledged one after another, but they barely scraped together more than 2,000 taels of silver.

Chongzhen is really a little breathless, plus his own 60,000 taels of silver and Zhu Jie's 20,000 taels of silver, it is only a little more than 100,000 taels, which is only half of what Zhu Jie said......

"Ladies and gentlemen, you eat the court, drink the court, use the court, and this official title is given by the court, do you want to repay me like this?"

Chongzhen gritted his teeth and shouted.

The ministers in the palace are silent one by one, they will never fall for you, love to death, those ordinary people will not die, and they have a fart relationship with themselves?

"Your Majesty, forget it, since your lords are in difficulty at home, we can't be too persecutive, the matter of silver, the ministers will find a way to ensure that this epidemic can be safely passed by Beijing City......"

Zhu Jie sneered.

"Zhu Aiqing, you ......"

Chongzhen said in amazement.

Zhu Jie shook his head, signaled to Chongzhen, and then said: "Article 4 is temporarily shelved, and the minister continues to say, fifth, the imperial court issued an order, the Gyeonggi area, including Tongzhou, Daxing, Zhuozhou, Baoding, Changping, Miyun and other places, all the streets are cleaned every day, and the people take a bath every day to keep their bodies clean; Sixth, the minister asked the imperial court to issue an edict to recruit all the doctors sitting in the Gyeonggi area, unify the control, divide the districts, and be responsible for the diagnosis and treatment of the people in various places. Seventh, the emperor asked the emperor to grant permission for Tongzhou Town to prepare for the establishment of a manufacturing bureau, and all personnel should use Tongzhou Town soldiers to produce protective gear and medicines for the epidemic! The expenses were raised by Tongju Town, some of which were used by the palace and most of them were used by the commoners of Gyeonggi, both of which were taught by the former teachers and ministers, although they did not have full effect, but they were still very effective and could be prevented. ”

Chongzhen was excited, waved his hand tiredly, and replied: "Okay, pass the decree, Jin Feng Zhu Jie is the Yin of Shuntian Mansion, concurrently serve as the governor of Baoding, and act in charge of all matters related to the prevention and control of plague in the Gyeonggi area, and all the prefectures and counties in Gyeonggi must fully cooperate, Zhu Aiqing, I will call the burden on your hands, let you do it, I only hope that Beijing City will not become a ghost city with ten rooms and nine empty rooms......"

Tang Ruowang's words really frightened Chongzhen, and 20 million people died, and one-third of the entire Western population died! With such a large scale, even if the entire population of Gyeonggi is filled in, it will not be enough!

The court meeting dispersed, and Chongzhen only left Zhu Jie behind.

"Zhu Jie, tell me, am I very incompetent as the emperor......

Chongzhen's face was full of desolation, and he replied: "Although I have worked hard day and night, I have done my best, and I want to prosper the Ming Dynasty, but you have also seen that how many of the civil and military officers of this Manchu Dynasty are the pillars of the imperial court?" I'm helpless, tired, I'm really tired......"

Chongzhen's words reveal a strong depression and loss, and he has never been so frustrated as today!

Zhu Jie smiled and replied: "Your Majesty, it's understandable to be tired, tens of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers in the Ming Dynasty, and 10,000 people need you, aren't you tired?" Unless, like the emperor, you do nothing all day long and leave all the affairs of the court to the courtiers. However, in their hands, I am afraid that the situation will be even more corrupt, in fact, the emperor only needs to polish your eyes and select a few great talents to come, and you can completely let go, you only need to be your emperor from above, and they are responsible for governing the world......"

"You're light!"

Chongzhen said hatefully: "The Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, which one can be called the talent of the pillars of heaven and earth?" On weekdays, they talk about it, and it's okay to pat the real ass, but when they are really used, no one speaks! Also, what's wrong with you today? If I work harder and squeeze out one or two thousand taels of silver from the courtiers, it is not impossible! Why did you suddenly say a word and take a big bag? Where do you go to find these hundreds of thousands of taels of silver? ”

Zhu Jie sneered: "Your Majesty, do you want these bigwigs to give you another prince drowning incident?" These bigwigs are not so easy to manipulate, and when the time comes to join forces, you will also suffer a dumb loss, and you can't make it! ”

"And what do you mean?"

Zhu Jie sneered: "Your Majesty, the current epidemic in Gyeonggi, according to Tang Ruowang and Dou Jiande, is already very serious, I'm afraid that if you want to contain it all, it is already impossible, when the time comes, there will be no fewer dead and injured people, too many people will die of illness in the capital, it will definitely cause panic among these officials, but the prescription for curing the plague is in the hands of you and my monarchs and ministers, when the time comes, let these people die in a hurry, we will not sell them a pack of medicine, hehe, the ministers only save the civilians, not the rich and the officials!" ”

"Zhu Jie, human life is at stake, why are you bothering?"

Chongzhen said helplessly.

Zhu Jie smiled: "Your Majesty, are you soft-hearted at this time?" Hehe, if I don't make it difficult for them, how can they possibly hand over the money? Don't worry, when the time comes, the two of us will play a double reed, they ask you for medicine, and you will retreat to me, I don't give a pack of medicine, I want medicine to cure the disease, well, take the silver! You don't really think they're all poor, do you? Your Majesty, I won't tell you, you let these bigwigs come up with 100,000 taels, that's impossible, some people really don't have that much money, but let each of them take out 10,000 taels of silver, it's still easy, these people don't have thousands of acres of fertile land at home? That doesn't have a shop at home? If the minister doesn't raise a million taels of silver for you, then the minister will automatically retire to the countryside and don't ask about the world! ”

Millions of taels of silver!

Chongzhen's eyes widened immediately, and he asked in a trembling voice, "Zhu Jie, can you really raise so much silver?" ”

"What?"

Zhu Jie sneered: "Your Majesty, don't forget, in addition to the prescription, there are also masks and soap cubes, at most five days, the minister can get it all, and when the time comes, there is no money, don't want to take a thing from the minister!" ”
