Why is Liu Ce very unlucky?

You said he explained it clearly, wouldn’t it be enough?

Then you are thinking too much and you don’t understand people’s hearts.

People don't want to know what the truth is, they just want to hear what they want to hear.

No matter how much you explain, no one else will believe it.

Therefore, to protect Liu Ce, it must be treated coldly.

He could only stay in prison for a while, and when the news passed, everything would be easy to do.

And what's next?

Next we start to settle the accounts.

Because there is a lot of money to spend next.

Reward!

According to the previous promise, after Jiannu got out, each person would give a silver reward of 20 taels first!

The Liaodong Army has the highest military pay among the border troops, with 1.4 taels per person per month, and the other border troops only have about 1 tael.

Now the emperor's silver reward is generous enough.

Although Chongzhen seemed to be sitting in the palace for a while, he seemed to do nothing, the money was the biggest thing.

Why did Huang Taiji come out of seclusion earlier than in history?

After Guangqumen and Zuoanmen were defeated by Guanning Army, other Ming troops also showed unprecedented enthusiasm.

All of this is because of money!

Of course, the contradiction also follows, and this is a later story.

A large army of 100,000, with a total reward of 2 million (about 1.3 billion yuan)!

Not until it was over, 20,000 people died, each with a pension of 50 taels, and the pension reached 1 million taels (about 650 million yuan)!

Not finished yet, there are additional rewards.

Zu Dashou, Zhao Shujiao, and Wang Chengyin each received 1,000 taels (650,000 yuan)!

Yuan Chonghuan rewarded 10,000 taels of silver (6.5 million yuan)!

Mangui and Hou Shilu were defeated and had no rewards or punishments, but had pensions for injury.

You Shiwei and Yang Guodong each received 100 taels (65,000 yuan).

Geng Ruqi and Zhang Shigong each received 100 taels (65,000 yuan).

In this regard, a total of 3 million.

In addition, he was rewarded with 180,000 taels of Guanning Army.

There are a total of 3.1884 million taels.

Compared with the budget of 2 million taels, it is 1.1884 million taels.

How much money did Chongzhen get in total when he confiscated his house?

5.38 million taels!

Should I pay the silver reward now?

want!

And send it immediately!

This matter was distributed by the Military Commission. In the name of giving rewards, a special military and political court was established under the Military Commission to implement the distribution of rewards.

Afterwards, the department was not disbanded and the military pay was transferred from the Ministry of War.

Why do this?

Because these civil servants of the Ministry of War in this era have become so bad.

Officials from the Military and Political Court asked Old Man Sun to appoint him.

Old Man Sun has three characteristics: First, he has strong strategic ability and weak tactical execution; second, he has a relatively accurate view of people, which may be related to being a teacher before; third, he is very upright.

He can do this, but he can also improve his prestige.

The Military Commission slowly began to erode their military and political power from the Ministry of War, and then the Ministry of War would do logistics.

Of course, this matter has to be done step by step, and it is impossible to be impatient.

But this time it is definitely a good opportunity.

And taking this opportunity to set up a military and political supervision agency under the Military Commission, called the Military Supervisory Institute.

The positioning in the future is to specifically supervise military and political affairs. When the time comes, a military court and an inspection team will be established!

The people in this institution cannot be appointed by Old Man Sun, and they cannot give him everything. They must have a check and balance.

Leave it to Li Banghua, he is very interested in rectifying military and political discipline, and is not afraid of offending others, so he lets him do this.

The Ministry of War did not ask the Ministry of War to report this money, but the Military Commission made it. When the report came, it went to the cabinet first.

The cabinet has written a lot of suggestions, such as not giving so much money, and the treasury is tight.

Pure nonsense, how can the emperor take back the bull and pretended to be?

Chongzhen waved his pen, money?

Give!

Start giving immediately!

It is to leave the full authority to the Military Commission for handling!

If all of them are given, how much money will Chongzhen have left?

2.1916 million taels!

Bi Ziyan applied for another 500,000 yuan to buy grain.

First, spend 280,000 yuan to dispatch 400,000 stones of grain from Jiangnan.

The second is to spend 220,000 yuan to dispatch 310,000 taels of grain from Huguang.

There are 1.6916 million taels left next.

Is there many?

Not much more!

The New Year is coming soon.

Forget it, send a red envelope!

I am willful!

I have a lot of leeks!

This year, people are in a state of trouble, so I send a red envelope to give you an atmosphere.

This matter was left to Gao Qiqian and the eunuchs in the palace to report.

It's just a kill of two birds with one stone.

How can one kill two birds with one stone?

The eunuchs of the Chongzhen Dynasty were rich and all of them were insatiable.

If the eunuchs in the palace are sent, there will inevitably be money. The Donglin Party, who hate eunuchs, will be supervised. They must be very serious and have wide eyes.

Grab one and kill one eunuch first.

What?

You said I accumulate my ears and eyes?

The eunuchs and palace maids in the Ming Dynasty palace are so fast that they are 100,000. I have to spend millions of taels to raise the people of the Forbidden City every year!

There is a very bad vulgarity among the people in Beijing. Many unemployed men castrated themselves and wanted to go to the palace to make a living.

I don’t want to raise so many people now!

Moreover, there are many people and many troubles, and there are many eyes. There are a lot of eunuchs who don’t work and only know how to inquire about things here and there.

Taking this opportunity to let them send themselves on their own, I can copy another sum of money!

It can also make the relationship between the eunuchs in the palace and the Donglin Party continue to deteriorate, so why not do it?

If you don’t do such a good thing, am I still a human being!

After thinking about this, Chongzhen immediately asked Wang Chengen to find Gao Qiqian.

"What are the instructions for the emperor?"

"Gao Qiqian, I plan to take out 1 million taels as a red envelope and send them to the common people. You will take 10,000 eunuchs to send this matter to you. You must send it all before the tenth day of the New Year. No mistakes are allowed, otherwise I will behead you!"
