"The first battalion of the Brave Guard Battalion, according to His Majesty's order, will take over the defense of Deshengmen!"

There were soldiers and horses rushing from the palace, and the generals of the brave guard shouted with orders. The generals of the patrol battalion stationed at the city gates trotted out immediately and took the order flags, but they couldn't help but hesitate for a while. In the end, they couldn't help asking. He said: "I dare to ask the general, is there any order from the Ministry of War?"

"What kind of **** military command, you kid, keep your eyes open, I am the Yongwei Battalion, when did the Yongwei Battalion need a military command?"

"Do you dare to disrespect His Majesty's will?"

The general drew his sword and put it on the neck of the general of the patrol battalion.

"The last will not dare!"

The general immediately softened, held up the command flag, and with a single order, the soldiers of the patrol battalion withdrew from the city gate one after another.

"Count your acquaintances!"

The general of the brave guard snorted coldly, put the knife back into the sheath, turned his head to look around at the guards, and shouted loudly, and the guards swarmed.

And this scene, in the nine gates of the capital, was also staged one after another. A group of forbidden troops came out of the palace, holding the flag of the emperor, and took over the major gates of the capital that were originally guarded by the patrol battalion.

Outside the city, the Jingjun Dazhai, with hundreds of thousands of elites for battles, was also in a state of preparation for battle. The little food and forage left in the inner purse, under the overall planning of the General Staff, were transferred in all directions.

Everything seems to clearly indicate that another "war" seems to be coming.

In the cabinet, under the leadership of the two ministers, the entire cabinet is also busy.

At the end of the year, for the imperial court, the most important thing is of course the taxation and income and expenditure statistics for one year and the fiscal budget for the coming year.

The statistician of the Ministry of Household was busy almost day and night, and the aggregated data were also handed over to the table of the Minister of the Ministry of Household, Liu Qiyuan, the second assistant of the cabinet.

One by one, the data came into Liu Qiyuan's eyes very clearly, and when he flipped through the pages, Liu Qiyuan's brows became more and more wrinkled. Even if he had predicted it, the real financial summary was far beyond his mind. lower limit of .

"This year's taxation is another bad debt, which is horrible!"

Holding the tax statistics after the summary, Liu Qiyuan couldn't help rubbing his head. This number gave me a headache!

"In the second year of Zhaowu's second year, the harvest was only 220 stone and 1,800,000 taels of silver!"

"In one year, the disaster relief consumed 800,000 taels of grain and 380,000 taels of silver. The Ministry of Industry built the road from Tongzhou to the capital. The original budget was 300,000 taels of silver, but now it has consumed 600,000 taels of silver. "

"The Ministry of Household sent land statistics, which cost 560,000 taels of silver."

"And rebuild the patrol camp...and..."

"This is still the army's silver rations, as long as we count it, and there is no need for court supplies..."

"Even if you take into account the money that His Majesty has allocated to the treasury, the finances have already overrun this year. If the tax is still paid like this in the coming year, the court will not do anything, and the salaries will not be paid. I'm afraid it will not be enough to repay the bills..."

"If Your Majesty finds out, he will probably be furious!"

As soon as these words came out, the two fell silent, and the statistician seconded from the hall also subconsciously slowed down.

"What is the tax revenue of the rest of the country this year, is the statistics clear?"

After a while, I came to Zongdao to ask.

"I don't know yet. The taxes in those places are directly paid by His Majesty's own money. It will take some time to know the exact figures."

Liu Qiyuan shook his head, and then said: "But it should be similar to last year. This year, the whole year is full of wars and wars, and military disasters have swept everywhere. For this reason, His Majesty even exempted several local taxes. Moreover, This year, there have been earthquakes in Sichuan, and there have been countless casualties. Most of the food and grass transported by the navy before were sent to Sichuan for disaster relief."

"There's also a good chance this year will be less than last year."

Speaking of this, Liu Qiyuan shook his head: "But no matter how little it is, it is definitely within the normal range for extenuating circumstances. Moreover, those places, in the midst of endless wars, still provide this year's large-scale rare history. war!"

"But the tax revenue of the imperial court..."

"This is completely rotten to the core. It's no wonder that His Majesty and those martial arts despise us!"

"I didn't do anything major, and the wars are only at the border. The war that consumes the most money and food is also out of His Majesty's own money!"

"Let's manage such a big place and do nothing, but we can't even feed ourselves!"

"The inner court is also working overtime to collect statistics and taxes."

"In a few days, it will be the Syzygy Dynasty. At that time, His Majesty will definitely bring up the matter of taxation. How can we talk about this bad debt in the courtroom!"

Liu Qiyuan couldn't help shuddering when he thought of the scene where the tax was discussed in the courtroom. The entire Daheng, in every aspect, was vigorous, and under the order of the emperor, he ran forward desperately.

As for them, not only did they not move forward, but they tried their best to hold back!

Come to Zongdao to be silent, he always has a hunch, or it is an inevitable fact, no promising prince will turn a blind eye to this rotten thing to the bones ~www.mtlnovel.com~ once turned a blind eye, it was because the foreign enemy knocked Side, there is no time to take care of it, but now, the foreign enemy has been pacified, and the Jiangnan side is just lingering.

Today, His Majesty, who has come up with the reform plan that dares the world, how can he care about these officials who have already been his eucalyptus.

Tax summary, in general, I am afraid it is the lives of countless people, and countless people are rolling.

As their thoughts flowed, the two looked at each other, but both saw the endless worry in each other's eyes.

Just as the two of them were endlessly worried, an official hurried in and looked panicked: "Lord Shoufu, Lord Second Fu, something big has happened!"

Such a terrified appearance immediately made Liu Qiyuan and Liu Qiyuan, who were already worried, even more uneasy.

"Yongwei Camp, Jinwuwei, Yulinwei, at His Majesty's will, took over the nine gates of the capital, and the patrol camp was ordered to return to camp and not move without authorization."

"Hundreds of thousands of troops of the Beijing army are preparing for war, and the grain depot is opened, and grain and grass are transported to various places..."

As soon as these words came out, Laizongdao Liu Qiyuan and the two stood up, and after a while, Laizongdao said solemnly: "Just after the war, Mongolia can't kowtow now. If Jiangnan is pacified, now is not a good time. There is no money to support the consumption of pacifying Jiangnan."

Liu Qiyuan was astonished: "It may not be the two, so what else is needed, such a battle is needed?"

As they looked at each other, the ominous premonition in their hearts became stronger.

I'm afraid... the drunkard's intention is not to drink.

Their majesty, but he has always been able to lift the table and kill people, and he never said a word of nonsense.
