Zhu Youjian had some knowledge of Mao Wenlong in his previous life, especially Zhu Youjian was deeply regretful about Mao Wenlong being killed by Yuan Chonghuan.

In the second year of Tianqi, after Guangning was defeated, Mao Wenlong gathered millions of Han people in Liaodong and occupied the islands outside the coast of Liaodong.

Mao Wenlong started his business with hundreds of soldiers, ragged clothes and struggled to start a business, providing a place for millions of Liaodong Han people who were unwilling to be oppressed by the Later Jin Dynasty.

This merit alone is far better than that of civil and military officials in the court.

Not only that, after setting his heels at the Liaodong Outer Sea Station, Mao Wenlong often went ashore to harass the Later Jin Dynasty, and once once restored half of the Liaodong Peninsula and Kuandian area.

As a result, when Nurhaci advanced westward, he never dared to plan a battle for more than two months because he was afraid that Mao Wenlong would copy his nest.

Such military achievements are even more comparable to those of the Liaoxi Military Group, which has always abandoned the city and lost its territory.

But even so, the generals who are of the best military skills in the people are unwilling to tell lies and respect the superiors, and they are so angry that they are sent to write to talk about the five unfair things because they are unwilling to tell lies and respect the superiors.

Alas, it is particularly evident that the corruption of the Ming Dynasty's administration was corrupt.

Moreover, in history, Mao Wenlong's fate was very terrible. After he was killed by Yuan Chonghuan's great fool for colluding with the enemy, until Zhu Youjian's previous life, experts and scholars also destroyed Mao Wenlong's reputation in various ways on the grounds of colluding with the enemy.

Little do they know who is cooperating with the enemy.

As he thought about it, Zhu Youjian's eyes heated up and tears fell down.

There were many high discussions on Yuntai, who decided to defeat the bandits at that time?

At dusk, General Li was hunting on the land of Baling.

"Oh---" Zhu Youxuan sighed, awakening the four cabinet masters who stood with their heads down.

The four of them looked up when they heard the sound, but they saw that Zhu Youjian's eyes were red. They were all shocked. They knelt down in a hurry and shouted in unison:

"I am guilty!"

"It's not your business, get up."

Zhu Youjian adjusted his emotions and then said:

"Since you are all here, let's discuss Mao Shuai's memorial."

Seeing that Zhu Youjian's attitude towards Mao Wenlong was beyond their expectations, the four cabinet masters felt nervous when they heard this. It turned out that the draft of the matter was completely useless.

Moreover, Zhu Youjian's attitude towards Mao Wenlong is not very clear now, so the four of them are silent for a while, and they are silent again and again, and no one speaks.

"It's all mute!"

Zhu Youjian was in a bad mood, but when he saw the four of them silent again, he rushed up angry.

"Master Huang Ge, tell me."

Huang Liji immediately shuddered and his mind began to move quickly. Combined with Zhu Youjian's tears and sighs, he immediately made a preliminary judgment on Zhu Youjian's attitude:

Zhu Youjian should have admired Mao Wenlong, and he should not be annoying to take a step back.

After calming down, Huang Liji quickly drafted the draft.

"Your Majesty, the general Mao has led his army to stay overseas for a long time, and his life must be a waste of time, so he should encourage him."

Although Zhu Youjian's attitude was generally confirmed, Huang Liji still did not dare to say too much, so he expressed his sympathy for Mao Wenlong from the perspective of objective geographical environment.

Leaving room for speech is the basic quality of the old man in the officialdom.

"Well, what the Master said is that the islands outside the coastal islands in Liaodong are small thalassia. Some islands do not have fresh water yet, so the production on the island must be fine. According to Mao Shuai, the island, it is a pity to raise hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians."

When Huang Liji heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. While Zhu Youjian turned around, he quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, but then he felt a little chill.

Your Majesty has never left the capital, so how can you know about the islands outside Liaodong? And you know it very well.

Huang Liji secretly glanced at the other three people and found that they were as surprised as he was.

"Since the difficulty of defending the territory of Mao, the court must not refuse to express it, otherwise wouldn't the hearts of the soldiers on the front line be disappointed?"

Before the other three cabinet masters could express their opinions, Zhu Youjian set the tone.

After Zhu Youjian made a statement, things became simple, and the four cabinet masters quickly decided to appease Mao Wenlong.

‘Mao Wenlong was promoted to the young security guard of the prince, and Yin's son was appointed as the thousand households of the Jinyiwei, and the Dongjiang owed wages were allocated today.’

Zhu Youjian then looked at the cabinet's bill and felt that it seemed that his sincerity was not enough.

So he had to add a few pens to the back, but in a flash, Zhu Youjian changed his mind.

'After Mao Wenlong received the order, he handed over military affairs to Chen Jisheng, deputy general of Pingliao, and followed the eunuch to the capital to meet the saint.'

The cabinet held Zhu Youjian's Pihong and was speechless for a moment.

"Your Majesty, the situation in Liaodong is changing rapidly. The general has left his post without permission. I am afraid that it will change for a long time. Please take back the order."

Afraid that Zhu Youjian failed to complete military affairs and caused a major disaster, Huang Liji quickly persuaded him.

"It's not a problem. After this year, Jin Dynasty encountered natural disasters and its strength was damaged. I don't expect there will be any major wars in Liaodong, and there will be no accidents in Mao's trip to Beijing."

"You will quickly draw an order to prepare money and grain. I will talk to Mao Shuai about the strategic issues in Liaodong."

Without waiting for the others to persuade him, Zhu Youjian waved his hand to drive him away.

But half an hour later, the four people from the cabinet came to Qianqing Palace again.

"Reply to Your Majesty, the decree has been prepared, but the Ministry of Revenue said that the money was insufficient."

Huang Liji said with a disgusting look on his face.

"What? Didn't Xia Fu come in October? It's been spent in just over a month?"

Zhu Youjian couldn't believe it. What about three million taels of silver? It took more than one month to spend it?

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Revenue said that although the money has not been spent, there are too many debts in the early stage. Xia Fuye has already made it out, and the use of the items has been approved by His Majesty. The Ministry of Revenue does not dare to embezzle it without authorization."

Shi Fenglai replied carefully, and the other cabinet ministers nodded and said yes.

"Don't you keep any mobile money? How can Guo Yunhou be the Minister of Revenue? I will quickly pass it on to the Minister of Revenue to see me!"

Without talking nonsense to the four old men, Zhu Youjian said loudly to Wang Chengen.

After a moment, Guo Yunhou, the Minister of Revenue, walked into the Qianqing Palace with a righteous look on his face.

"Guobutang, have the money been spent? No one left?"

As soon as Guo Yunhou finished the worship ceremony, Zhu Youjian immediately asked a question.

"Your Majesty, this is the prepaid account book for this year's Xia Fu. It has been approved by Your Majesty before. Please check it out."

Zhu Youjian took the account book transferred by Wang Chengen, and only looked through it briefly, then threw it aside.

‘I did agree to this account book before.’

Zhu Youjian was a little scratched his head at this time. The Ming Dynasty has been in short supply of finances for a long time, and there are countless places to spend money on natural disasters and wars. Therefore, the Ministry of Revenue inherited the tradition of eating food for the Yin and Mao.

Before the taxes in the quarter arrived, they were given a debt of previous debts. Once the taxes arrived, they were immediately paid.

Zhu Youjian smiled bitterly: "This Ministry of Revenue is quite a bit like the idea of ​​paying back a credit card as soon as the monthly salary is received. Ah, advanced consumerism is killing people."

"Can't the Ministry of Revenue even get 200,000 taels of silver?"

Zhu Youjian still did not give up and hoped that Guo Yunhou would still hide private money for the treasury.

"Return to Your Majesty, river workers, disaster relief, extravagant rebellion, northwest, Hebei and Liao military pay, all of which are bottomless pits that cost money. Just using Liaoxi military pay alone accounts for half of the Xia tax, and the Ministry of Revenue is really out of money."

After Guo Yunhou finished speaking, he bowed deeply.

Seeing that Zhu Youjian's face was still clear, Guo Yunhou took a deep breath and said with courage:

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Revenue has no money, but I know where to get the money."

Zhu Youjian was scratching his head, but he was stunned when he heard this, but instantly felt a hint of chill on his back and a slight ominous premonition arose in his heart.

"Oh? What does Guo Butang mean?"

"Your Majesty, I heard that the family of 'Five Tigers and Five Biao' is quite wealthy, so I believe that your Majesty's treasury should be able to take out this silver."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Youjian cursed in his heart: "Damn, that's true."

Zhu Youjian looked up and glanced at the four people in the cabinet, and immediately understood.

‘Grandma, the cabinet and the Ministry of Revenue have probably colluded and decided to eat my wealthy family.’
