Chapter 204 Worrying about the audience

Mr. Zhang was summoned to the palace by Emperor Hongzhi the next day, which was both reasonable and expected.

Except for Emperor Hongzhi, no one looked through those booklets. The only content they received was the shock of cannons and muskets.

And the enemies thousands of miles away from the sea are already coveting the Ming Dynasty, and they may kill at any time to destroy the Chinese seedlings.

The ministers who had been linked to the cliques did not run away, and Bai Ang directly followed the previous severe punishment model:

Be strict, be heavy, be quick!

The lowest ten years, the highest twenty years, from the time of stripping the fame and official positions to the time of not being able to get into itchy within three generations, was judged as hard labor.

The confiscated property of the Ministry of Justice made the Minister of Revenue a little comforted by the Minister of Revenue. If he were to be accused of being crazy on weekdays, he would have been very happy.

These ministers and censors just used their property in the capital, and they copied out more than 2 million yuan in silver and more than 100,000 yuan in gold.

The remaining corals, pearls, tortoiseshell, jade carvings, antiques, etc. are piled up in countless mountains.

However, now Li Zhong was just a little comforted, but he couldn't be happy at all.

This is a disaster that may destroy the clan at any time, just like how can a sword in the throat make people happy?!

Needless to say, the three great masters were silent and sighed from time to time after they returned.

The old wife and children at home asked each other but they did not answer.

Since Emperor Hongzhi summoned the old Duke that day, he naturally wanted to summon several other ministers, ministers and three great scholars together.

Everyone sat together and sighed for a long time, but they could only ask for advice from crazy tigers who knew very well about this.

Don’t think that these court officials are stupid, and people are always extremely afraid of unknown things when they just know them.

When the Javan natives first saw the fleet of eunuchs in the Three Treasures, they even thought that this was the power of the gods descending to earth.

The fuse performed by Chihu'er, the gun-hitting gun broke the Ming armor, and the speed-speed quasi-cannon broke the city wall, which really shocked them too much.

In the face of such epoch-making cutting-edge weapons, their confidence seems to be very insufficient, which stems from the unknown to the enemy.

Moreover, they were not people who had been in the army all year round. They went back like Duke Zhang, so they checked Java, Yizhou and the surrounding areas of the Ming Dynasty.

Soon the old Duke confirmed that if the other party wanted to expedition thousands of miles to invade the Ming Dynasty, he would inevitably occupy Java and plot against Yizhou.

Only by using these two places as the basis points can the army accumulate materials and launch an attack on the Ming Dynasty.

After all, it is thousands of miles away, and it will take months to go back and forth even if they are fast.

There will be conquering, pacifying, accumulating materials, and organizing preparations for the army.

When they have enough strength to attack the Ming Dynasty, it will probably take at least a few years.

Let’s see if my grandson can put the money in Yizhou and build a practical navy for His Majesty.

Then everything that grandson planned was obvious, and he had already calculated the time period when the other party might launch an attack.

During this period before the other party launched the movement, with the Ming Dynasty's national strength, if you launch it with all your strength, you may not be unable to catch up with the other party's manufacturing and military progress.

Combined with his grandson's several blows to the censors, he matched the interests of various departments and expanded His Majesty's control over the army.

This is obvious. What he wants to do is to combine all the troops to fully support the expansion of arms to strive to reach a level that can resist invasions within a few years.

The censor system was originally a check and balance of power by the empire during the Taizu period, but it has become a cancer today.

In order to sell the name of the direct invitation, they almost impeached and criticized everything, and even formed a group of friends and made a disaster with the tribute students.

This forced the relevant national policies formulated by the six cabinets in many cases to be almost impossible to implement.

Before the implementation, we have to fight with them in various competitions, and we will finally release the part.

The most prominent example is the repair of Zhang Qiuhe that Bai Ang rewarded after the flood control at that time.

For this matter, the censors almost scolded Bai Ang’s eight generations.

What are "small consumption of national treasury", "destroying people and causing money", "alarming"...

There are even doubts that Bai Ang wants to "borrow public and private" and "take advantage of the situation to seek power"... Even the traitors are scolding him.

What will happen after these censors "big bricks" have scolded them?!

Two years later, in July of the fifth year of Hongzhi, it was on the banks of the Zhangqiu River where Bai Ang had stopped and thought hard, accompanied by a loud bang!

Bai Ang’s most worried breakout broke out: the surging Yellow River stormed the Jianghuai land, and from southeastern Shandong to northern Jiangsu, all of which became a country of marsh...

The Grand Canal, which runs through the north and south, was even broken, which made the national treasury on the verge of exhaustion, and the capital was almost drunk!

For the Ming Dynasty, this matter is tantamount to a slash of the throat!

Bai Ang was ordered again, but this time Liu Daxia, who was extremely opposed to the matter at that time, finally realized his mistake.

So he accompanied Bai Ang to carry the pot together, and vomited blood on the dam so tired that he barely settled the matter.

But what about the other censors?! There is no historical record that they have any guilt for this. They still sit upright and domineeringly and use their feather fan to scarf.

"Chihu'er, what are the rules of the six departments of the cabinet today? You say it's..."

Emperor Hongzhi has not eaten well these days, nor has he sleeps well. Once he closes his eyes, he will be a disaster for the deceased clan and the extermination of the race!

The problems reported by the Jinyiwei in the East Factory were shocking, and the money collected by Bai Ang of the Ministry of Justice made Emperor Hongzhi angry.

One by one, Emperor Hongzhi clearly felt that this empire was probably just a fire and a flower was covered with flowers.

It seems prosperous and actually has many crises, and it may be completely subverted day and night.

"It's hard to say this, and it's easy to say it."

Mr. Zhang curled his lips, "I don't have any seats for all these old guys!"

It was so fucked like a prisoner being tried, and they threw me into the middle of them and were watched and answered.

"It's nothing more than building arms and training new troops!" Mr. Zhang waved his hand and said, "Neither of these two is in the hands of others! Only Your Majesty can hold them!"

As soon as these words were said, the civil servants' faces were extremely complicated, which was equivalent to seizing the power of the Ministry of War and gradually replacing the position of the Ministry of War.

If the martial artists received the support of His Majesty, I am afraid that the right to speak in the court's civil servants would be further deprived of?!

The most important thing is, once the royal family has completely grasped the military power, what can civil servants fight against it?!

Haven't you seen that Chengzu's martial arts were powerful, and the civil servant system was almost overwhelmed?!

"Are you going to seize the power of the Ministry of War and establish a military honor in the court?!"

Ma Wensheng narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Mr. Zhang and said in a deep voice.

Mr. Zhang looked at Ma Wensheng coldly and smiled: "The Ministry of War is still there for the time being, and it will definitely be withdrawn in the future."

"Otherwise, there will be a nine-sided border that cannot defend against the Tatars, the coastal areas cannot defend against Japanese pirates, and the Europa attacks the Ministry of War that cannot defend against even more?!"

"The Ministry of Revenue has too much money and food. Do you plan to raise a group of stupid people who are useless in the country?!"

This was like a slap, and Ma Wensheng almost couldn't breathe when he hit him with one stick.
