Chapter 603 This Is Not Like You

Previously, Liu Daxia wrote letters to speak to ordinary soldiers on the border many times.

The generals of the state are rich and poor, and he, the Minister of War, has the deepest view.

Over the years, he has been concerned about the sleepy and exhausted border troops and the situation of deducting them, and has tried his best to help ordinary soldiers on the border get the treatment they deserve.

During this period, a lot of achievements were also achieved, and a lot of old systems were eliminated.

Liu Daxia started with the nobles and wrote a letter to Emperor Hongzhi for his merits. All merits must be found and implemented before the corresponding rewards can be issued.

We must also reduce the salary of those unsuccessful nobles and rectify the shortcomings of false reporting and false claims.

Because this move touched the interests of most powerful people, the powerful people tried their best to stop it.

Therefore, His Majesty is undecided and needs to discuss and do it again.

Now His Majesty has taken the initiative to mention it and said that he would reform it with the salary of the royal family?

Liu Daxia temporarily put the matter of resigning behind his mind and asked with some uncertainty: "What Your Majesty said seriously?"

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help feeling a little proud when he saw that he was interested.

The king and his ministers have worked together for many years. Liu Daxia and others know themselves, but why don’t they understand these ministers?

At present, the maritime ban must be opened.

To comfort Liu Daxia and others, they can only temporarily divert their attention.

Emperor Hongzhi said seriously: "Not bad."

Without blinking, he painted a big cake for Liu Daxia.

"I have discussed the issue of the salary of the royal family with you and others before, and now I have made a preliminary decision."

"Since the salary of my Ming royal family members has to be reduced, the nobles naturally cannot avoid it."

After hearing this, Liu Daxia looked at Emperor Hongzhi with some confusion.

Emperor Hongzhi also looked at him, smiling as gentle as usual.

"It's just that this matter is of great importance. Liu Shangshu, you are the first person to propose this matter."

"Please study it and give me a detailed charter."

"The money saved can be used to improve the military expenditure of border military and civilians."

"I would like to ask Shangshu Liu and his subordinates to discuss it carefully."

Liu Daxia was a little moved.

Although he did not agree to the sea ban, he had always wanted to reduce the rewards of nobles and even the salaries of the Ming royal family, and the savings of the money spent on military construction.

Seeing that His Majesty is going to overcome all difficulties now so that this matter can be done in a real way.

How could he not be moved?

Liu Daxia pondered: "I don't know how much your Majesty originally intended to reduce it?"

Liu Daxia had a rough value in his mind.

What I originally thought was just a reduction in the rewards of the imperial court.

Now that His Majesty has made such a big step, even the royal family members have to be reduced.

Of course, he also has to take care of His Majesty's wishes.

But he didn't expect what Emperor Hongzhi said, but Liu Daxia took a deep breath.

"The emperor's greed was killed for five generations."

"After five generations, you will be awarded the title with merit."

Emperor Hongzhi's tone was not at all turbulent, and he said these two sentences familiarly that had already imagined them in his heart countless times.

Liu Daxia didn't react for a moment.

"Fifth generation?"

Emperor Hongzhi nodded and said affirmatively: "Not bad."

"I really can't bear to watch them continue like this if there are many royal family members under the fifth generation."

"As for the noble family, the unsuccessful family for many generations, Liu Shangshu can report it."

"I will seriously consider the suggestions."

Liu Daxia looked at His Majesty in front of him, and was a little surprised, not only in his heart.

Your Majesty has always been gentle, and his style today is really not like his usual ones.

And listening to the style of this sentence, Liu Daxia always felt a bit inexplicably familiar.

"Your Majesty can you discuss this with the three cabinet masters?"

Emperor Hongzhi smiled mysteriously.

"no."

"As for who it is, I can't tell you yet."

......

Liu Daxia came to Japan today to resign.

But he didn't want to be surrounded by Emperor Hongzhi and took the work he had always wanted to do and went home to do it.

Afterwards, he couldn't help feeling a little frustrated.

"Your Majesty has always felt that it has changed a lot recently..."

Liu Daxia couldn't help but feel a little excited when she remembered those words just now.

He has always been a conservative.

The key points of the Ministry of War’s various old systems and even shaking the interests of the powerful are to maintain the stability of the Ming Dynasty’s borders.

Even though His Majesty opens the sea now, it will trigger a survival crisis for the people along the coast.

However, His Majesty saw through his thoughts and thoughts, and started with the royal family and directly reached out to the noble family.

This was made up for him among the military and civilians on the frontier.

This made Liu Daxia hesitate himself.

I have long wanted to retire after retirement, not to mention that now His Majesty refuses to listen to his advice and insists on opening the sea.

But before retirement, I saw that what I had been proposing to do, there was significant progress.

Now I am a little reluctant to be a manager.

"This matter is of great importance, I have to plan it well..."

Liu Daxia pondered and left the palace all the way.

"I don't know who can make His Majesty have the idea of ​​starting from the royal family."

"Five generations of killing..."

"If all the royal family members moved, what else can the nobles of the Ming Dynasty say?"

The more Liu Daxia thought about it, the more he felt that the person who came up with this idea had a broad vision.

When he was discussing the matter last time, he heard that His Majesty was going to open the sea and find a suitable candidate from the Ming clan to help earn money to support the royal clan.

But I didn't expect that this was the idea.

Even if Liu Daxia has been an important official for more than ten years, he is not absolutely sure that he can convince the current situation to influence the interests of the royal family.

"It seems that this person is not only a strategy, but also a person who cares about the people at the bottom of the Ming Dynasty."

"How much does the royal family and nobles earn every year?"

"If these silvers are placed on the frontier to improve the lives of the military and civilians, how many ordinary soldiers can benefit."

"Can you convince Your Majesty to make up your mind to treat the royal family like this."

"Who is this person...?"

Liu Daxia has been thinking about possible candidates in her mind.

Thinking of His Majesty who helped Zhao Ce make a name for himself, the prince always likes to run to Yongxibo's Mansion.

"It's really you?"

I remembered the argument that the young man gave him that day, and the shocking words that followed.

Liu Daxia was a little uncertain, but also felt that it was a little natural.

When I got home, I just got out of the sedan chair and saw a servant walking out of the mansion with a gift box.

"master."

The servant stood still and gave a courteous manner.

Liu Daxia asked him: "Whose mansion is going to congratulate him?"

The servant replied, "The young master asked me to take the gift to Yongxibo's Mansion to congratulate the joy of the promotion of the throne of Count Yongxi."

Liu Daxia had just thought of this name, but when he heard what the servant said again, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

"Release promotion?"

"Go back to Master, the cheap fuel used in our capital has been developed by Yongxibo Institute recently."

"Your Majesty was grateful for his achievements and was promoted to the title, and also gave birth to the world's scrolls and imperial edicts."

Liu Daxia didn't know what she was thinking, and said "Yes": "Go."
