第二七六章 龙虎斗(1 / 2)

官居一品 三戒大师 1555 字 2022-04-26

“请部堂明示。”胡宗宪平静道。

赵贞吉便拿出一摞厚厚的供词道:“这是在南京刑部大牢中,官衙的一百多名从倭罪犯的口供,”原来这段时间,老夫子不是闲着玩的,而是明修栈道、暗度陈仓,私底下搞调研去了:“他们从贼的理由不尽相同,但其中八成以上的,都是指控你浙江官府巧设名目,花样百出,根本不管百姓生死,以至于无以为继,民众卖儿鬻女,这才纷纷投靠倭寇……胡大人不妨看看这些供词,是也不是?”

胡宗宪看也不看那些供词,沉声问道:“大人什么意思?”

“没别的意思,就是想搞清楚,到底是谁在把我们的子民往倭寇怀里推的!”赵贞吉咄咄逼人道:“是谁让倭寇越剿越强,屡剿不灭的!”

“依大人的意思,便是我们征收的抗倭提编,逼反了很多良民。”胡宗宪平静问道:“是这个意思吗?”

“难道不是吗?”赵贞吉反问道。

胡宗宪看看屋角的书记官,竟然无声笑道:“我想请问部堂大人,对‘加派’问题,您究竟如何看待?真的是为了中饱私囊的是苛捐杂税吗?”

“本官在奉旨问话,恕不能回答你的问题。”赵贞吉沉声道。

“您不能回答,我就自己回答。”胡宗宪略略提高嗓门道:“兵家云:‘夫欲足兵,必先足食’,如果没有足够的粮饷,军队的士气便会低下,战斗力大打折扣,甚至会由兵变成匪!尤其是浙江卫所彻底败坏,现在全靠募兵和客兵作战,而这两者都是要靠银子养的,花费比卫所军队大多了。”

“这个钱从哪出?仅凭浙江的藩库肯定远远不够的,而朝廷本来财政就捉襟见肘,再加上九边军费浩繁,帑藏匮竭,入不敷出,也无法给予支援,万般无奈之下,才出此提编下策。”胡宗宪不慌不忙道:“加派固然增加百姓负担,但倭患不除,百姓身家且不能保,又何有于资财乎?那些说课税重的人,就像是覆舟者,不先想想怎么保命,而是想着他那装满金银的包袱!”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

听他还在这里振振有辞,赵贞吉再不掩饰面上的鄙夷道:“王大人,你以为如何?”

王用汲寻思一会儿,轻声道:“以下官愚见,民困固所当恤,倭情尤为可虑,设使地方无备,一时倭寇突至,则其焚劫杀伤之惨,将有甚于提编加派之苦者。”

“你太容易轻信了!”赵贞吉不悦道:“沈大人呢?你不会也和胡宗宪一个鼻孔出气吧?”

胡宗宪和王用汲目光,一齐投到沈默的脸上,希望他能同声同气,但他们失望了,只听沈默面色平静道:“下官觉着,胡中丞的说法,有些牵强,不能以‘抗倭’二字,便涵盖全部问题。”

“好!”在胡宗宪和王用汲难以置信的目光中,赵贞吉击节叫好道:“果然是少年英才,光明磊落!”说着望向胡宗宪道:“你的说法乍一听合情合理,但本官不是三岁孩子,不是一番花言巧语便可以过关。”只听他冷笑一声道:“老夫好歹是多年的户部侍郎,要想搞清楚浙江的收支,还不算太困难!”

便拿出一本手抄账册道:“这是你浙江嘉靖三十四年的收支账目,正税一百三十万两,倭饷八十万两,加派四十万两,一共是二百五十万两,扣除提交国库四十万两,拨付藩王六十万两,移交河工十五万两,官员俸禄五万两,修缮营造四万两,以及各项杂费一万两,应该还有一百二十五万两……”说着翻一页道:“但是军费开销一项,便达到了一百一十万两,最后仅节余十五万两,这个账目可有误差?”

胡宗宪摇头道:“没有。”省里的账册都要提交户部,所以赵贞吉能得到并不奇怪。

“很好,既然没错就很好!”赵贞吉鹰隼般盯着他,一字一句的问道:“本官且问你,真用得了这么多银子吗?”

胡宗宪面色如常道:“浙江有大军十万,其中多是客军与募兵。客军要双饷,募兵也得一日三分银子,况且一打起仗来,兵器粮秣都是用钱堆出来的,所以兵法才说:‘日费千金,然后举十万之师’,花钱当然厉害了。”

“胡说八道!”赵贞吉狠狠一拍桌案,又拿出一本账册,拍在他面前道:“这是你浙江上半年的采购清单,将所有的内外之费,宾客之用,胶漆之材,车甲之奉全部加起来,也不过花费了六十万两而已!请问胡大人,那五十万两白银,到底去了哪里呢?”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

胡宗宪心底升起彻骨的寒意,因为赵贞吉的说法,已经相当接近事实真相了。如果这份账目被捅将上去,那可就真的万事休矣了……他仿佛已经看到赵文华泥菩萨过河,自己被弃之如敝屣的一幕,豆大的汗珠便从额头渗出来。
