    It seems like both parties are just content with talking words!  In fact, Liu Yi was not in a hurry at this time.  The government was running in an orderly manner, and with each passing day, his luck became more stable.  Occupying the center of the imperial court, he is the legitimate emperor.  The initiative is in his hands.  On the contrary, it is different for the rebellious side. Since the rebellion just started, with their vigor, the offensive was the most ferocious and the momentum was the most massive.  If we delay for too long, the morale and morale of the army and the popularity of the people will continue to decline.  Rebellion is a dangerous business, although the Yi tribe is a bit exaggerated.  But the outcome will definitely be ruined and the family will be affected.  This cannot be escaped.  Therefore, once you find that your rebellion has no chance of success.  Most people will be shaken in their hearts.  But most of the time, when the imperial court learns of the rebellion, it is often due to considerations such as quickly extinguishing it or for the prestige of the imperial court.  Will ignore the situation and immediately mobilize the army to quell the rebellion.  But at this time, because it was too hasty, there was not enough preparation.  On the contrary, there are more chances to lose the battle, and Pingbai gives the rebels a chance to increase their momentum.  In this way, Liu Yi was not in a hurry, even though there were various memorials piling up in the court requesting the emperor to send troops immediately to exterminate the rebellion.  However, other ministers in the court were not as calm as Liu Yi.  "Your Majesty, it's time to send out troops! We can't let these rebellions get bigger" Xun Huai persuaded with sincerity.  Liu Yi smiled slightly: "We will talk about this later. Yes, have the people I asked you to invite come?" Xunhuai smiled bitterly: "They are here!" "Let them come to see me" Not a moment later.  There were five or six people who were dressed gorgeously but obviously had no official status.  Walk into this royal garden.  Not daring to express his anger, he knelt down and saluted Fan Bufan.  Fan Bufan smiled with satisfaction: "You don't have to be polite. Are you all my countrymen" It seemed that the emperor's humor made these people laugh in amusement.  "The king calls the world his home and is rich all over the world. Wherever he is not a country party, please pay attention to your majesty and be careful with your words" A Na Yan stood up and kowtowed.  After hearing this, Su Rong turned to Na Yan and said, "What you said is exactly what you said. I made a mistake!" Na Yan bowed again and stepped back, like a clay sculpture.  Everyone who was already very nervous.  Seeing this situation.  Sweat broke out on his head.  Although they are wealthy businessmen with a net worth of hundreds of millions.  Some even have fleets and do business in Fusang.  However, their titles are quite low.  The title of Dachu has long been extended to every citizen of the empire. Different titles have different political and social statuses.  Among these people, the one with the highest title level is only level fourteen.  This is already the result of countless times they paid homage to Nasu. ????????????? But no matter how much money you spend, you can¡¯t buy it for people above the fifteenth grade.  Only with military merit can one be crowned.  There are only fifteenth-class titles and above.  Only then are you qualified to come to the palace and meet the emperor.  This time, they really made an exception!  Everyone is frightened, but also nervous and excited!  The laws of the emperor.  Royal style.  But where are they qualified to see before?  They were all so shocked that they were almost holding their breath.  It is said that history on the left records words, and history on the right records actions.  There are also Na Yan who fill in the gaps. ??????? Follow the Emperor at all times.  Record the words and deeds of the emperor.  To serve as a testimonial for future generations.  ¡°Don¡¯t think that Fan Bufan just said something casually as a joke, it¡¯s not a big deal.  This Nayan is looking for trouble when nothing happens.  Actually not.  The king regards the four seas as his home and shows fairness to the world.  The most important thing in governing is fairness.  Regional distinction is the most important thing.  Just like the unfounded examination fraud and the North-South Examination Case during the time of Zhu Yuanzhang.  Without him, it was just to bridge the gap between people in the north.  Although this is an unjust case, politically, it has to be done.  In fact, even now, the geographical divisions in Dachu have become serious with the rise of Jiangzuo's economy and culture.  Fan Bufan believed that if Jiangzuo¡¯s words spread, it might have very serious consequences.  Therefore, Fan Bufan immediately realized the danger and quickly admitted his mistake.  Although he did have the intention to win over these powerful people from Jiangzuo at this time.  But what happened just now was unintentional??, but on the contrary, it shocked these Jiangzuo powerful people even more.  "Ahem" Fan Bufan coughed twice in embarrassment, but he couldn't talk about his feelings for the country party and got close to them.  He just said a few words and was ready to ask people to leave.  ¡°Although these people had spent countless days preparing for this interview and spent a lot of effort.  But just a brief moment of closeness is enough for them to boast for a lifetime.  But at this moment, a chubby fat man suddenly said: "Your Majesty, in ancient times, General Fubo destroyed his family and ruined his country. Now the rebellion is fierce and he bullies the emperor. We common people also hate it deeply. We should donate all our family wealth to serve the emperor.  Military spending, wipe out the traitors!" Fan Bufan was stunned. This doesn't seem to be a planned event, right?  Although he has long had the idea of ??hitting these guys' wallets.  But as the emperor, of course, the appearance cannot be so ugly "This" The businessmen all bowed again: "Your Majesty, please accept your sincerity" With that, he handed over an order.  The result of the eunuch was immediately delivered to Fan Bufan.  Fan Bufan was moved as soon as he saw it. He felt that this thin list was as heavy as a thousand pieces.  I saw it written on it: five hundred thousand catties of gold, twenty million jin of silver, one million dan of grain, and eight million jin of fodder.  Countless supplies of all kinds.  Although Liu Yi always knew that these maritime merchants were rich, he had never thought of being rich to this extent.  This food and grass alone is enough for Fan Bufan to recruit an army of one million for three to five months.  "Your Majesty, these are not things that we can come up with. They are from a good family in Jiangzuo and are completely loyal to the imperial court" The fat man paused and said.  The reason why Fan Bufan didn¡¯t send troops immediately.  A very important reason is that there is no money Although Fan Yi set up the system at the beginning.  I won¡¯t be so stupid that I don¡¯t collect business tax.  Therefore, Dachu¡¯s financial income for one year now.  It looks like about 40 to 50 million.  Logically speaking, it should be more than enough.  However, Da Chu is vast, and there are also protective palaces thousands of miles away such as the Western Region, Hezhong, and Heicheng. ? Coupled with the various natural disasters that occur one after another in the territory, relief is all needed.  The fiscal deficit is almost constant throughout the year.  This seems to be a common problem for any government, no matter how much revenue it has.  Spend more.  Therefore, after encountering such a sudden thing.  The court was unable to come up with money for a while.  Not to mention, the rebellion in Lingzhou and other places even cut off the western trade routes.  There are still so many taxes from counties and counties Now, these Jiangzuo powerful men are taking the initiative to donate money.  All of a sudden, Fan Bufan's financial problems were alleviated.  Therefore, everyone around, whether it was the envoys who recorded daily life or Xun Huai, the minister, was very happy.  "Every noble family, please rise." Fan Bufan said with a smile: "I am the emperor, and I should protect the people. Instead, I have asked all the noble families to help each other, and I really feel sorry for it" "This is the daring loyalty of the common people. Those  The traitors and traitors will be punished by everyone!" these wealthy merchants shouted.  Of course Fan Bufan would not be so gullible.  The so-called "can't afford to be early without profit".  These powerful people give themselves money.  Not because he is the emperor.  Every penny a businessman gives away is for investment!  The taste is at least several times the profit, and you can earn it back.  The contradiction between the north and the south has been accumulating for a long time!  Especially the Jiangzuo Shipping Faction.  and the mainland faction represented by Lingqin Prefecture in the northwest.  In order to compete for markets and so on, they have been fighting for a hundred or two hundred years.  It has always been the businessmen from Lingqin who have the upper hand.  There is no other.  These people have a deeper foundation.  It is even more integrated with the Saga Merit Group.  On the contrary, sea trade emerged relatively late and has a weak foundation.  Lack of political support.  Therefore, it is inevitable to fall into the disadvantage.  This time, I am afraid it is a speculative opportunity that they are optimistic about.  Of course, Fan Bufan was prepared and gave them the opportunity.  Thinking of this, Fan Bufan stopped being pretentious.  He smiled and said: "I will accept the kindness of your family. When the imperial court defeats the rebels, I will return these to you with profits" These businessmen were complaining in their hearts.  But Na Na didn't dare to object.  They wish the court would not repay a cent, so that they can gain more political benefits.  But, where would Fan Bufan give them these opportunities?  "Is that so? Merits must be rewarded. Official positions in the imperial court are public weapons, and I cannot violate them. But the title of nobility comes from my will. Let's mention each title, and everyone will make a plan.A list came out, and everyone who donated money will get a share" After hearing this, these wealthy businessmen became happy. The twenty-level title system implemented in Fan Yi's era is still operating very strictly to this day.  Although with the development of commerce and the acceleration of urbanization, the 20th-level nobility has been separated from the relationship with the 20th-level nobility. However, the 20th-level nobility is still the most important basis for measuring the social status of the entire society.  It is very difficult to upgrade to a first-level title. Because according to the rules set by Fan Yi, this kind of power is in the hands of the emperor. Because it is difficult, it has credibility and people flock to it.  In the middle, Prime Minister Fu An hugged the quilt and leaned on a pillow, smiling softly: "As I get older, I am always afraid of the cold.  No better than you young people!  " Hearing this, Taiwei Zhou Qing and Yushi Dafu Shang Yang quickly apologized. Although these three people are the same as the three princes, it is obvious that whether it is the Yushi Dafu, the prime minister's deputy, or the Taiwei who claims to have military power, in Fu'an  Everyone in front of them looked like subordinates. After saying a few words, Fu An asked calmly: "I heard that the emperor met with many Nanmanzi today?  "    "yes!  These Nanmanzi were really generous, and they gave the emperor a gift of millions of gold in one fell swoop.  The food and grass alone are worth 1.5 million stones" Shang Yang clicked his tongue: "Those southern barbarians are really rich" "If you ask me, this southerner cannot be the emperor.  Actually favoring the Southern Barbarians" Taiwei Zhou Qing also said. He was angry and obviously very dissatisfied with Fan Bufan. But that's all. But since Fan Yi changed the general to a Taiwei, the Taiwei's  The power has plummeted. Although the Taiwei is also one of the three princes, he is actually in control of the army, not to mention that in the Dayu era, he was no longer above the emperor.  Among them, he, the captain, has the weakest power. Now he can only complain! "Our new emperor is so powerful" Fu An sighed inexplicably, which made both of them feel confused.  No idea. "You, a lieutenant, don't have any military power in your hands now, do you?"  "Fu An said slowly. "This" Zhou Qing was a little embarrassed. Originally, he could mobilize some of the Jinwu Guards and the frontier troops. But now, these military powers have been replaced by the emperor.  He held it firmly in his hand, making it impossible for him to get involved. Fu An smiled bitterly. He could certainly make trouble for Fan Bufan now, and even use the same method to evade Emperor Ping Shi.  But now he doesn't dare. Fan Bufan has control of the entire capital, which is like putting a knife on Fu An's neck. What's more, Fan Bufan has no reason to be filial.  He did not interfere with the administration of the court, but only urged the court to take various actions in the name of quelling the rebellion. If it fails, it is conceivable that the new emperor will not be merciful when he uses his own methods So,  Now he can only do his best to maintain the operation of the court This is also his specialty More importantly, now he and the new emperor are in the same boat. If the rebellion in the northwest really changes the dynasty, everything he has done will also be lost.  With the collapse of Da Chu, there will be nothing left. Therefore, knowing that Fan Bufan is treating him as a beast, he has no choice now. Therefore, at this moment, Fu An, the guy known as the old fox, is also sighing at Fan.  The power of extraordinary means. This guy who has just become emperor at a young age seems to have extraordinary skills that can only be achieved after being an emperor for decades! "Is there really a person who knows this from birth?  "Fu An couldn't help but smile bitterly. "This kind of method is definitely not something that can be described by a genius. It is clearly a method of controlling the situation of the government that can only be used for a long time in power. If the Ping Shi Emperor was half as good as him, Fu An would never have been able to control him.  Thinking about this, Fu An asked about other things: "Have you ever sent troops to the northwest?  "    "No.  "Zhou Qing replied quickly. "Huh" Fu An snorted coldly, but looked like he had expected it. "Sending troops to fight is not like children playing house. How could it be that there was no preparation at all?  Those who can take action? The troops and horses need to go ahead with food and grass. All preparations cannot be completed in a short time.?Even if the efficiency is good.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
