Zhu Ci Xin's gaze was cold. He looked at the Brocade Guards and continued,"
"Since you've followed this prince, you'll have to take out the aura of tigers and wolves on your bodies. Among my people, there are no cowards, no trash!”
"You guys are investigating cases that no one else can investigate. You guys are managing military affairs that no one else can manage. Act first and report later, the imperial power gives special permission!"
He was too f * cking hot-blooded. Everyone felt their blood surge. There was food to eat with the Crown Prince!
Of course, there was food to eat. Zhu Ci had one foot on the big box.
"This is the salary that the Imperial Court owes you. From today onwards, the Imperial Court will no longer owe you a single penny.”
"Even if we don't pay the officials, we have to pay you first. I look up to Taizu Taizong's remaining achievements and restore the responsibility of our Royal Guards to patrol and arrest! This prince is your backer, and your emperor is your backer.”
"Follow this prince, you will have enough food, clothing, and salary. Those who make contributions will be heavily rewarded! Your families will be settled, and your children will inherit your mantle.”
The good days of the Jinyiwei are back! Everyone's blood was boiling and tears were welling up in their eyes.
The first thing to be distributed was the salaries of these thousands and hundreds of households. Everyone would make up for the salary that was owed in one go.
With so much silver in his hands, he felt like he was dreaming.
Two hundred thousand taels of silver was enough to pay the salary owed to the Jinyiwei.
These days, the Embroidered Uniform Guards were as excited as the new year. They carried meat and wine and went home to enjoy it with their wives and children.
Next was to reorganize the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
They wantonly expanded their troops and filled up the empty positions.
Then, Zhu Ci Xin prepared to make his move.
First, the Brocade Guard would collect evidence of the officials taking bribes and bending the law. In fact, they didn't need to investigate much. They would confiscate and exterminate the families of those officials who later surrendered to Slave Jian and the thieves.
In less than three months, it should not be a problem for him to collect ten million taels of silver.
This was the first step of Zhu Ci's plan, to make money first.
The second step of the plan was to solve the problem of the raiders in the country, which was more troublesome.
It was still important to appease them. The prerequisite was how to appease them and how to settle the raiders after appeasing them so that they would not rebel again.
Zhu Ci Xin hadn't thought about this yet.
The third step was to deal with Slave Jian. The advantage of the cavalry of Slave Jian was too great.
The only way to resist them was to improve firearms. The firearms of the Ming Dynasty were already quite mature.
As long as it was slightly improved, it would be enough to make those Slaves of Creation in Liaodong suffer.
This required time. What Da Ming lacked the most now was time.
Therefore, Zhu Ci Xin was a little anxious. The Great Ming Dynasty was indeed in a critical situation.
He did not have much time left.
In the Forbidden City, Emperor Chongzhen was also very happy.
Donating silver to help pay was very effective because of the example of Zhou Kui.
This time, the officials donated a total of 370,800 taels of silver.
This was great news for Chongzhen.
Not only was the Liaodong army's pay problem temporarily resolved, but the money needed to suppress the rebels in the country was also temporarily relieved.
Although it wouldn't last for a few months, it was better than nothing.
What Chongzhen didn't know was that this 370,000 taels of silver was just a drop in the ocean to the officials of the Forbidden City.
Even so, many people were still clamoring that their homes were already bare and they were eating dirt and drinking wind.
Chongzhen was very touched and praised the officials.
However, these people could only fool Chongzhen, but they couldn't fool Zhu Cixi.
This was because Zhu Ci Xin knew that Li Zicheng, the intruder who had entered the capital, had plundered 70 million taels of gold and silver from them.
Seventy million taels was the total income of the national treasury in the fourteenth year of Chongzhen.
Of course, the consequences of doing so were also extremely serious. It indirectly caused Li Zicheng to lose the support of the big landlord class, and the Great Shun regime was soon finished.
Although Zhu Ci Xin wouldn't go to the trouble of making these officials desperate, he could still afford to make ten million taels.
Jianghuai, Emperor Chongzhen was rarely so happy. Empress Zhou was comforted to see Emperor Chongzhen so happy.
"Did Your Majesty encounter something happy today? Did you win a battle at the front line?”
Empress Zhou's personality was the complete opposite of Zhou Kui's.
Zhou Kui was a miser, but his daughter, Empress Zhou, was a benevolent and virtuous woman.
After taking charge of the harem, he was especially thrifty and cut down on unnecessary expenses. He also did not beg the emperor for favors for his relatives.
Even during the holidays, when the ministers and wives came to the court to congratulate her, she gave her rewards according to the rules of etiquette and never gave them indiscriminately.
Moreover, this Empress Zhou was extremely beautiful."The Empress is as beautiful as jade, and she doesn't care about her beauty."
According to the Old Capital's Legacy," Empress Lie's holy body was condensed," and " Empress's jade body was calm and steady. At first, he did not have the heart of showing the four natures of gold and silver. When he went to pay his respects to the emperor, he was blessed by the gods and helped him. The country was in a good mood in the morning. People who saw him knew that he had the nobility of phoenix.”
Chen Wenzhuang Renxi once lived in the home of the Emperor of Zhou. When he was young, he came out to see Renxi and was surprised by his appearance. He said to his father,"Your daughter is a noble person in the world!"”
When Emperor Chongzhen was still Prince Xin, because she was born in poverty and lived in Prince Xin's mansion for a period of time, she had always maintained her commoner nature.
In Shi Kui Shu Hou Ji, Empress Zhou was described as such: In the harem, she often wore plain clothes and ate vegetarian food. She advocated frugality with the emperor and did everything like needlework and weaving herself.
