Chapter 1407
At this time, Han Du suddenly said, "How to solve the problem of the tiger flag?"
"The Ministry of Revenue does not have money or grain to mobilize the army." Zhu Guozhen frowned.
War requires money and food. In order to provide disaster relief, he, the Minister of Revenue, has gritted his teeth and squeezed out some money and food, but if he dispatched a large army, he would not take out any money and food.
"I heard that the tiger flag is the best big business in the north. Such a big business will definitely not lack money and food. If this tiger flag can be solved, it will not only eradicate a disaster for the court, but may also be able to provide disaster relief money and food for disaster relief.
Get it all together.” Gu Bingqian suddenly interrupted.
The tiger-shaped flag is no longer the tiger-shaped flag protected by Wei Zhongxian, so he doesn't mind carrying the tiger-shaped flag out at this time.
Such a Ming business with a treasure pot in his arms was jealous of anyone who saw it, especially when the imperial court was most short of money.
Han Yu glanced at Gu Bingqian and turned to say, "Mr. Gu is right. As long as the court solves the tiger flag, the problem of money and food can be solved."
Although he didn't like Gu Bingqian, he still supported him when dealing with the tiger flag.
Because the tiger flag is not an ordinary business name, it has threatened the stability of the Ming Dynasty in the north of the Ming Dynasty. If it is not controlled, it is likely to become another Liaodong.
"Who will solve the money and food for the troops sent?" Zhu Guozhen said with a ugly face. "Now I can't even get the money and food for disaster relief, so where can I collect all the money and food spent by the army?"
Han Du frowned and said, "If the tiger flag is solved, there will naturally be money and food to provide disaster relief."
"Mr. Han said this too lightly. Do you know how much money and food it takes to dispatch a large army? How long does it take for the army to go from preparation to expedition? Even if the army can successfully wipe out the tiger flag, can the affected people afford it?
"Zhu Guozhen said with a stinking face.
Han Du said: "We can send troops to fight against the tiger flag while providing disaster relief."
"Where is money and grain? Grand Secretary Han, are you here to solve the problem?" Zhu Guozhen replied, with a hint of disdain on his lips.
Han Du said: "The money and grain of the Ministry of Revenue will naturally be solved by the Ministry of Revenue. After the solution is solved, the things that were found can be exchanged for silver and sent to the Ministry of Revenue."
"After talking for a long time, I still want the Ministry of Revenue to pay the army's money and grain. I can tell you now that the Ministry of Revenue has no extra money and grain to mobilize the army, and I can't take out the money and grain to support the army's operations, so Grand Secretary Han won't attack households.
The ministry's idea was gone." Zhu Guozhen said.
Han Du said dissatisfiedly: "Why don't you understand? As long as you take down the tiger flag, all problems will be solved. By then, the Ministry of Revenue will also have money and food, which is a matter of killing two birds with one stone."
"I said, the Ministry of Revenue has no money and food." After Zhu Guozhen said that, he picked up the covered bowl at his hand and drank it in small sips, ignoring Han Du.
Han Yu naturally refused to give up.
He opened his mouth and wanted to say something else, but he saw Ye Xianggao sitting in the main seat and said, "Okay, stop fighting. Let's talk about the tiger flag later. Now we will provide disaster relief first."
"If the tiger flag is not resolved, it will sooner or later become a disaster for the court. It should be eradicated earlier to benefit our Ming Dynasty." Han Du frowned and looked at Ye Xianggao.
He didn't believe that Ye Xianggao didn't understand these.
The tiger-like flag that could conquer the Tumote tribe was no longer a business in the Ming Dynasty, especially the business was all Han people, and the threat was greater than the Mongolians on the grassland.
This is also when the imperial court learned that the tiger flag had conquered the Tumote tribe, not only did not have the idea of recruiting the amnesty, but instead made up his mind to eradicate the tiger flag.
The court will never allow any kings of different surnames or vassal states to exist.
Ye Xianggao said to Han Du: "This tiger-shaped flag must be solved, but the most urgent task is to provide disaster relief first. If there were no such natural disaster, the court would definitely use troops against the tiger-shaped flag this year. Unfortunately, the court cannot provide money and food for the time being to support the army to go to war.
”
"It's not that I don't support Mr. Han's idea of dealing with the tiger flag. It's because the Ministry of Revenue has no extra money and food, and even the money and food for disaster relief have to be pieced together." Zhu Guozhen said from the side.
Han Yu looked at Ye Xianggao, then looked at Zhu Guozhen, and finally sighed.
He wanted to dispatch troops to eradicate the disaster of the tiger flag as soon as possible, but now two members of the cabinet do not support him, and one of them is the prime minister.
It is impossible for him alone to send a large army to fight against the tiger flag.
Seeing that Han Du was comforted, Ye Xianggao said to everyone, "Everyone is busy with your own affairs. I want to go to see the emperor and report on disaster relief."
"I'll go with Shoufu Ye." Han Du suggested that he would also go to see Apocalypse.
Ye Xianggao hesitated for a moment.
I understand that Han Yu still has not given up on using military force against the tiger flag. I know that he has stopped him once, and it is impossible for him to stop him every time.
He said, "Okay, Yu Chen, let me go!"
Zhu Guozhen and Gu Bingqian stood up from their seats, bowed to Ye Xianggao, and returned to their respective rooms where they handled their official duties.
Han Dong did not go back, but went directly to the Qianqing Palace with Ye Xianggao.
Except for going to the harem of other concubines, Tianqi stayed in the Qianqing Palace most of the time.
"The emperor, Shoufu Ye and Ge Lao Han asked for a meeting." The eunuch came in to inform.
Tianqi swallowed the snacks in his mouth, took another sip of tea and smoothly, and then said, "Why don't you invite the two cabinet masters in?"
After the little eunuch got the order, he hurriedly ran out.
Not long after, Ye Xianggao and Han Du, led by the eunuch, came to the inner hall to see the Apocalypse.
"My minister, Ye Xianggao meets His Majesty."
"My son, Han Yu meets His Majesty."
Two people bowed to the Heavenly Revelation.
"Encourage your two beloved ministers." Tianqi stretched out his right hand and lifted it for a moment, then ordered the little eunuch beside him, "Go and prepare a round stool and sit for the two beloved ministers."
"Thank you, Master."
Ye Xianggao and Han Du thanked him, and then he got to the seat the eunuch moved over.
The Ming Dynasty was different from the Qing Dynasty later. When ordinary officials saw the emperor, they did not have to kneel down and kowtow at all times.
"Is there anything wrong with the two beloved ministers?" Tianqi looked at the two cabinet masters in front of him.
If two cabinet masters can come to the Qianqing Palace at the same time, only if something happens in the court will happen together.
"The officials just want to solve the problem of money and food for disaster relief. Since the chief minister does not agree, then forget it." Gu Bingqian said indifferently.
The reason I have to make suggestions is just to show my own existence.
The cabinet is all from the Donglin Party, and he is the only one. If he doesn’t even have any suggestions, then he, the Grand Secretary, has no sense of existence.
Ye Xianggao said: "I will meet the emperor later and try to persuade the emperor to allocate some silver from the inner treasury to provide disaster relief. Before that, the Ministry of Revenue needs to take out some money and grain for disaster relief."
