Even if it is a county magistrate of the seventh rank.

At the very least, after becoming an official, the hardships of the past ten years will not be considered in vain, and the money spent before can see the hope of returning to the original.

Emperor Chongzhen was extremely disappointed.

Although Emperor Chongzhen didn't plan to completely mess up Annan at the beginning, after all, he still had to count on Annan's side to continue to produce food.

But the situation in front of him was too peaceful, and it could even be said to be calm and boring.

Lord Zheng and Lord Ruan, the two Xiao Pujie who actually controlled Annan, were killed almost without any resistance. The former Lord Li Weiqi died even worse than a dog, and the whole family was neat and tidy.

If these three people and their nine clans did not cause any unrest among the Annan people, what about this time?

This time, there were more than 1 people!

However, the heads of more than 1 people fell to the ground, and it didn't seem to arouse the rebellion of the Annan people. There was not even a flag-waving one. It seemed that the Annan people collectively became good babies overnight.

Originally during the Yongle period, what about those people who kept rebelling during the Xuande period?

Now that Annan even the king has been slaughtered, and the ministers are almost wiped out, these people haven't rebelled yet, what are they waiting for?

Shame on their ancestors!

This made Emperor Chongzhen very uncomfortable, and at the same time felt very boring, so boring that he felt homesick.

What should Daming look like now?

Although Jin Yiwei sent new secret reports almost every day, Emperor Chongzhen still thought about Daming and thought about Daming, especially when he couldn't go out and kill people with a knife.

How much has the railway been repaired?Those bigwigs of the Royal Academy, what are they tossing about now?And Queen Zhou and Concubine Yi, what are they thinking now?Are you looking forward to going back soon?

There are still the remaining officials, households, etc., what are they doing?

In fact, Fang Zhuangli, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and Guo Yunhou, Minister of the Ministry of Housing, were sitting together drinking tea.

After putting down the teacup in his hand, Fang Zhuangli said: "It's not that I don't listen to your persuasion, but because I have no choice, I really can't go on.

His Majesty is constantly expanding the territory, but there are only so many people admitted in the imperial examination every year. In addition to those corrupt people who were caught by the factory guards, the manpower of officials has become more and more insufficient. "

Guo Yunhou frowned and said: "You don't have enough officials in the official department, how can my household department be better than you? Although the national treasury has become increasingly full in recent years, our Majesty is also a master who can spend money. At the end of the year, this old man's head began to ache."

After sighing, Guo Yunhou continued: "But what can I do? I can't let it go! If you don't pay close attention to the treasury, I'm afraid your Majesty will spend it more freely in the future!"

Fang Zhuangli waved his hands with a smile and said: "Don't persuade me, the old man knows what you are thinking and what you want to say, but ah, the old man has made up his mind to go, so don't try to persuade him anymore.

It's not that the old man doesn't want to serve His Majesty, but that he really can't.

Did you know that in Myanmar and the Mughals alone, there are more than a thousand officials from the second rank to the seventh rank? This is almost three times the imperial examination can only be admitted to Jinshi.

It takes two years for one imperial examination, and six years for three imperial examinations.

Also, the students who have just passed the Jinshi still need to walk for half a year to study among the six departments. Where can the old man get so many officials in a while?

Even with the addition of the Nanjing Ministry of Officials, it can't be done at all!

What's more, what His Majesty got this time is not only Burmese and Mughals, but also Annan. Annan also needs officials!

Although it is a great thing to take back Annan who has been separated from my Ming Dynasty for more than two hundred years, what about the officials?Where can I ask the old man to change it?

Besides, the old man is already in his eighties, and he really can't hold on anymore! "

Hearing Fang Zhuangli's sigh, Guo Yunhou couldn't help being silent.

Youdao is a rare thing in life in the seventies, but Fangbutang has dragged his body and persisted until he was 86 years old and has not withdrawn from the court.

In fact, Fang Zhuangli, who should have returned to his hometown in his [-]s and [-]s, did not resign, but he did not dare to mention it in the first year of Chongzhen, for fear of being beaten to death by the Emperor Chongzhen. .

It was mentioned once in the third year of Chongzhen, but Emperor Chongzhen didn't allow it.

In the fifth year of Chongzhen, I wanted to mention that the Emperor Chongzhen led his troops out to attack people... until the 13th year of Chongzhen, Fang Zhuangli hadn't asked Fang Zhuangli to sue his old age and return to his hometown, and the Emperor Chongzhen ran away again.

Fortunately, the affairs of the Ministry of Officials are not too many, and it is always easier than that of the Ministry of Household Affairs. Otherwise, Guo Yunhou doubts whether Fang Zhuangli will die of exhaustion in office.

In fact, not only is the room magnificent, but how can I be better?There is also Xue Fengxiang from the Ministry of Industry, who is basically too old to walk, and now he is sick at home every now and then.

They are all old, even Wen Ge, who "everyone thinks flattering", is 68 years old. Above the court of the Ming Dynasty, the important officials are already dozens of years old, and it is time to make way for the people behind.

In fact, what if it is not allowed?

A large group of people in their [-]s, [-]s, [-]s and [-]s, even if they can live, how many years can they live?ten years?eight years?

Daming has changed so much now, it has become a bit incomprehensible, the old guys like me can't keep up, and if we continue to hold on, it will only hinder the progress of others, so what's the point ?

It's better to retire early, or to learn from Shi Fenglai, go overseas early to become a governor of a locality, so that the rest of your life will be easier.

After a long sigh, Guo Yunhou said: "Forget it, the old man is also planning to retreat. Now that His Majesty has become a general trend, I will wait for the high position. I am afraid that I will hinder His Majesty in the future. It is better to go back sooner. It can be regarded as a period of monarch and minister." A good story."

Fang Zhuangli also felt sorry for him: "That's right. Daming's business is too big now, and you and I are getting old too.

The old man is now facing the officials needed by the Mughals and Myanmar, and he is a little worried.If this is said, who would have thought of what the majestic officials of the official department said here? "

Guo Yunhou was about to speak again, but outside the door, the right servant of the Ministry of Officials rushed over, and after walking to Fang Zhuangli, he leaned over and said, "Jiuzhou Island urgent report. Governor Shi is sick, I'm afraid it won't last long." , even this year may not be able to survive.”

Fang Zhuangli was terrified, got up and asked: "Has the news been sent to the cabinet?"

The right servant of the official department said: "The news has been sent to the cabinet, and it will be sent to His Majesty soon."

After nodding his head, Fang Zhuangli said to Guo Yunhou: "Elder Shi Ge can't hold on now, he is younger than the two of us."

Guo Yunhou sighed: "Time is not forgiving!"

In the cabinet, Wen Tiren, whose beard was completely white, also found Tian Ergeng who was staying in the capital and was in charge of passing the news back and forth: "This news must be delivered to His Majesty in the shortest possible time."

Tian Ergeng nodded and said: "Your Majesty knows. At the beginning, Mr. Shi Ge had meritorious support and guarded Kyushu Island of the Japanese Kingdom at an octogenarian age. This news will definitely be sent to His Majesty in the shortest possible time."

After Tian Ergeng left, Wen Tiren picked up the other memorials again and read them.

However, the more I looked, the more confused my heart became.

Shi Fenglai is ten years older than himself, so he can't hold on now, what about himself?How long can it last?

Chapter 683 Your Majesty Is Coming

Emperor Chongzhen felt that the history of Ming Dynasty was a history of comedy, or a black humorous farce composed of farces.

Originally, the Emperor Chongzhen in history deliberately killed the eunuchs as soon as he came to power—and Shi Fenglai, the guy who tried to protect Emperor Chongzhen’s landing under heavy pressure, was denounced as an eunuch by the Donglin gentlemen...
