"At this time, the Queen Mother is like an old country woman." I, the Ming Dynasty official, dared to speak, and many people laughed at Queen Mother Li in private. Only Bai Lang knew that this was human nature. "Ah, you want to write another one?" Bai Lang
I feel that this middle-aged woman is stunned. He has already written a guarantee, but she still wants him to write another one, and it is best to grant a title in the capital immediately and finalize King Lu's palace as soon as possible.
She was really scared. She was really afraid that the officials below would force her to send her youngest son, King Lu, to join the vassal elsewhere. This would mean that she would be separated from her youngest son forever and would never see him again in this life. Bailang was the opposite palace.
The guy who has the most indifferent rules in the room, since Empress Dowager Li is almost begging, she has to give face to this body, Wanli's mother-in-law.
"I can't give it now, otherwise those big heads will first force my brother to move out of the palace, and then it will be easy to force him to become a vassal." Bai Lang also said kindly, now King Lu is still young and Wanli has not got married yet.
, so he can still live in the palace and be with my mother every day. After Wanli's wedding, this little fat man is still young, so there is no need to drive him out of the palace immediately.
In fact, Bailang's original intention was to set up a relatively independent palace in the Forbidden City, and there would be nothing wrong with letting King Lu live there - he himself actually disliked the Forbidden City very much, and would definitely live in Xiyuan in the future, or even prefer to live outside the city.
Nanyuan didn't want to live in the Forbidden City. In his opinion, the most valuable thing about the Forbidden City was the three main palaces, and the other small courtyard-like palaces were of little interest.
The Imperial Garden is still small and boring. It is better to live in Xiyuan, where the water and sky are open, and the mood will be much better. The Forbidden City is too cramped. You can even go west to the western suburbs - Jianzhou Tatars will build a lot of things there in the future.
palace.
When Bai Lang opened up the second line of Ren and Du, the wedding period had arrived. The future queen and two concubines had already been passed by Wanli, and they were all regarded as Xiaojiabiyu. Bai Lang didn't care, and let the important officials in the court go through the process. As for Hua
Money, "I'm talking to you, sir. Is there something that the previous emperors used in their weddings? Take it out and wash it before using it. It's not clothes. You can save money by reusing it."
This is the style of a benevolent monarch. He should be praised, but Zhang Juzheng still accused Wanli of not being like this. After all, it was the emperor's wedding. He himself had just been captured by Wanli some time ago, but in exchange for it, he received the unanimous approval of the officials in the court.
The problem is that Zhang Juzheng doesn't care, and neither does Wanli/Bailang. Bailang doesn't care whether Zhang Juzheng has the handle or not, but Zhang Juzheng simply has a temper tantrum of "I am not a prime minister, but a photographer!"
"It's really troublesome for grandma. Why can't she open a flowing banquet outside for the ministers to eat and drink, and then go through the Meridian Gate and directly carry the queen and the others into the bridal chamber to finish the ceremony? It's like this. If you replace it with the original Wanli, half of your life will be gone."
." Bai Lang muttered. After several lifetimes of marriage, he still really underestimated the complexity of a royal wedding.
He took the bill of money spent and looked at it, and cut off two-thirds in one stroke, "Do you think I'm being taken advantage of?" He completely ignored the expression of the Minister of Rites, "That's it, I'll give you this amount of internal money.
Click." Bailang glanced at Feng Bao, "Comrade, don't let me play with you here!"
All in all, Bai Lang had already accomplished his martial arts, and he was full of energy and there was nothing unusual about it until the end. The three of them were all pretty little beauties, so Bai Lang smiled and accepted them.
After the wedding, Bai Lang can take charge, at least Empress Dowager Li does not need to hang the curtain. But Bai Lang is still no different from a rubber stamp. Major affairs of the court depend on Zhang Juzheng, and Feng Bao is responsible for internal criticism. The first thing Bai Lang did when taking office
He directly ordered the money to be spent to repair Xiyuan. Of course, it was from internal funds and did not require a penny from the court.
The eunuch in charge of the restoration and construction would definitely be greedy for money, so Bai Lang decided to endure it and give people benefits for doing things. As long as it was not excessive, Bai Lang was not prepared to argue - anyway, even if he was arguing, it was when the eunuch retired and returned to his hometown to argue with the bureaucrats.
Likewise, Bailang has already prepared a set meal for them.
He had already thought about it early on. It would be no problem to retire. He would first search their homes in office and in their hometown. He asked Jinyiwei to send people out together with Dongchang and the Ministry of Household Affairs to classify them according to their grades. Those who were above the grade would be copied and those who were not in the grade would be given to them.
The money will be replenished, but as for the land that was swallowed up? By then Bailang will definitely implement the method of dividing the land into acres and paying the grain as an errand. Forget about any kind of discounts, all taxes will be paid to me.
So if he has the ability to merge, it doesn't matter to Bailang, as long as he pays taxes. Commercial taxes will also be levied. Overseas trade will of course be based on ships and goods. Then there will also be a graded tax rate for the export of different goods. Think about yourself
Things to do, and then think about the heads that need to be chopped off when doing these things, "I'm afraid this Li can't escape, Ming Li Zong sounds good."
The three girls were very dignified and could not be played with. Bai Lang called them "dead fish". This guy directly changed the rules of spending the night - he used the method of going to the palace where the concubine lived to spend the night. Feng Bao tried to persuade him but he didn't.
Yes, Wanli's idea is right. This kind of matter in the inner court is indeed Wanli's "family matter", and there is nothing to talk about in the outer court.
You want to say that the emperor spent money recklessly just after taking office? The money from the internal funds was still used to build the Xiyuan Garden. If he really imitated his grandfather, the whole court would not know what to do. Now Zhang Juzheng knew that his student of the emperor was not a thrifty person.
Zhang Juzheng gritted his teeth and pushed ahead with the re-recording of the pornographic book mentioned earlier, and it was tried out in some places to work as a errand to pay food.
However, this matter of sorting out commercial taxes and the government's involvement in overseas trade monopoly can be discussed at the court. Of course, the officials from the southeast are firmly opposed - these bastards make money by smuggling, and of course they don't want the court to do so.
He also intervened. Even though they made a loud noise, they still passed under the pressure of Zhang Juzheng.
Zhang Juzheng has many political opponents, but as long as Wanli is on Zhang Juzheng's side, nothing will happen - even Bailang cooperates with Zhang Juzheng and kills many princes who have continued from the Taizu period to the present day.
Except for the king, the rest of the princes who have any bad behavior will be removed from the country immediately, I will be imprisoned in Fengyang, and the rest will be turned into common people and allowed to make a living."
Bailang even opened the imperial examination for them. As long as these relatives outside the eight poles were capable, he would not mind letting them become officials. Zhang Juzheng also took the opportunity to vigorously promote the Qing Dynasty, especially in the land originally occupied by the princes' palaces from various places.
Part of it has been re-included in the government's tax collection accounts. Unfortunately, there are not enough deposed princes, and Zhang Juzheng's efforts are not strong enough to find out all the hidden land. "Check the land in the world, old man
Sir, it would be good if someone could find out and hide two or three tenths of the total number." Bai Lang sighed.
