First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 458
This remark clearly expresses the current attitude of the upper echelons of Goryeo. After Xin Dun and Xin Tun came to power, they expelled Li Gongsui, Qing Qianxing, Li Shoushan, Song Qing, Han Gongyi, Yuan Songshou, Wang Chonggui and other ministers, and placed them under their own orders. The bureaucracy controlled personnel and speech.

The aristocratic family hated him deeply, and they were also dissatisfied with the Goryeo king Wang Zhuan who entrusted him with power. Moreover, Wang Zhuan's temperament changed drastically because of the death of his queen, or he released his nature?
He often puts on his own makeup, disguises himself as a woman, and shares the bed with the noble son Jin Xingqing every day. Recently, he formed a disciple guard, led by Jin Xingqing, who summoned Hong Lun, Han An, Quan Yu, Hong Kuan, Lu Xuan and other noble and beautiful youths to sleep with him. .

He even let the young palace maid enter the room, covered her face, and let Jin Xingqing, Hong Lun and others go... while he dug a hole in the next room to peek, feeling envious in his heart, and then called Hong Lun and others to his bedroom...

If these things are put on a nobleman, it will be fine, and everyone will pass a few ridiculous jokes, but it will not work if it is put on the king. He will not only damage his own reputation, but also the dignity of this country. And the purity of royal blood.

Therefore, Jiang Side, the envoy sent by Zhu Biao, lived in the capital of Koryo, where the guests were full of guests, drinking and composing poems all night long.

They have probably tasted what it means for the envoys of the Ming Dynasty to be nailed to the capital for so long. They were a little restrained at the beginning, but as the high interest situation gradually deteriorated, they couldn't wait to jump up.

I also want to thank the Yuan Dynasty and the princesses of the Yuan Dynasty for their training of Goryeo. They are used to the suzerain state meddling in their state affairs, so they have no resistance. Instead, they all hope to take the opportunity to seek benefits for their own families.

Some Koryo royal families with thin blood also eagerly hoped to be selected by Ming Dynasty. Once they flew on the branches and turned into phoenixes, Jiang Side reported in a letter that more than ten warehouses in the courtyard of his house had been filled, and there were countless gold and silver treasures. There is almost nowhere to put it.

As for Yao Guangxiao, the two monks were intriguing and intriguing. Although Xin Tun was powerful, he was increasingly inseparable from Dao Yan, a rebel genius. What's more, after so long, he also had guesses about the power behind Dao Yan.

No one is stupid, especially those who can make a difference in politics. Xin Tun can go from a poor monk to the current Zhenping Hou, a hero who keeps the righteousness and obedience, talks about Dao Xie Li Baoshi, the three Hans on the wall, the three major Kuang, He is also a prodigy if he is the governor of the leader of the capital, the supervisor of the heavy house, and the governor of Jiucheng Mansion.

It's just that Koryo is a small country after all, and everyone knows the size of Ming Dynasty and how strong the military power represented by being able to defeat the Yuan Dynasty is, so they don't dare to point out what they know, let alone get rid of Jiang Side and Yao Guangxiao The so-called weak country has no diplomacy is nothing more than that.

It's a pity that what Zhu Biao wants is by no means simply changing Goryeo for a king, so these people's plans and expectations are doomed to fail. It is said that it is time for Xin Tun to die, otherwise it will really be a big deal.

When he came back to his senses, the table in front of Zhu Biao was already filled with delicious dishes. Eating is definitely a pleasant thing, especially when you are hungry.

Chang Luohua looked at Zhu Biao, who was eating deliciously, and his red lips, which had been pursed deliberately, relaxed, and the corners of his mouth lifted, and he personally served some delicious dishes to his husband.

In fact, she doesn't care about the princess of Korea. As the hostess of the princess's east palace, even if there are a few unruly people, so what, there are many rules in the palace, and she can adjust whoever she wants.

She made some gestures just now, just teasing her husband, expressing weakness, hoping that he will love her more, in terms of her natal status, she is also the dignified daughter of Kaiping Palace, how could she be afraid of a barbarian princess.

After Chang Luohua ate a porcelain bowl of polished rice porridge, she got up leisurely and led a group of people towards the warehouse of the Eastern Palace. Whether she liked it or not, she would not be shabby about the presents she should choose, not to mention that she was still respectful. It is the role of the heroine to give back with reason and diligence.

Zhu Biao stayed in the hall and continued to eat. Speaking of which, his appetite is really growing, but his body is also developing very well. He can feel that he has grown a lot this year, and he is already taller than some adult People are taller.

After he finishes eating, the gifts prepared by Chang Luohua will be ready. The ones from Princess Gaoli and those from the Li family and the Chen family are treated equally. They are all silk, cloth, gold, silver, jewelry, jade, etc. Zhu Biao has seen the gift list It also felt appropriate, so I didn't say anything more.

When the eunuchs below were packing up the presents, Zhu Biao accompanied Chang Luohua for a stroll, then sent her back to the palace for a lunch break, and after looking at the time, he led Liu Jinyunjin out of the palace.

After arranging the military guards of the Jinwu Guard Mansion to accompany him secretly, Zhu Biao drove out of the palace gate. It was the busiest time in the capital at noon, and after driving for a few streets, the noise of business was endless.

Zhu Biao was also happy to hear that, the most benevolent place under the foot of the emperor in the capital city, if it is desolate and quiet here, it will be over. After his father and emperor laid down Jiqing, he gathered many craftsmen and wealthy households to settle here. Now it has passed 15 years years.

After so many years of development, as the Ming Dynasty established its capital here, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the prosperity of the capital was far greater than that of Suzhou and Hangzhou. The 360 ​​lines each had their own city language, which was not common to each other.

Generally, it is a place designated by the government, so that all craftsmen have their own districts, and the craftsmen live according to the industry classification. They often call their settlements a certain workshop according to their occupation, such as wood workshops, brocade workshops, saddle workshops, and so on.

The location of the workshop also takes into account the characteristics of the objective environment. The dyeing workshops are mostly arranged near Liuye Street and Chuanban Lane, because the floating silk must be in the confluence of Qingxi, Dongshuiguan and Beitongguan, and its color is black and bright.

Speaking of the prosperity of the capital, it naturally attracted merchants who heard the news. Most of them were Jiangnan and Shanxi merchants. They were full-time businessmen and their scale was relatively large. Segmentation.

Merchants from all over the country competed, and even invaded the wide streets into shops, so that the imperial court formulated a penalty regulation: "Anyone who invades the streets and roads and builds houses... will have a stick of sixty, and each order will be restored."

In addition to serious shops, there are rural farmers who mainly trade in daily food, fuel, etc., and their business locations are concentrated and time-sensitive.This kind of centralized trading place is still called the city according to the ancient system. Except for Jubao, Sanshan, Shicheng and other gates, the city is mainly concentrated on both sides of the Qinhuai River west of Zhenhuai Bridge, as well as Dazhong Bridge, Beimen Bridge, and Sanpailou.

In order to promote circulation and at the same time increase the revenue of the court, Lao Zhu also ordered the Ministry of Industry to build houses near the water outside Sanshan and other gates, called Tafang, for merchants to transfer inventories, and the government collected taxes, and the benefits were considerable.
