Prince of Chaos

Chapter 493 Shall I pass on the throne to you?
Zhu Changluo told Emperor Wanli about the recent astronomical events in the capital from beginning to end.

When Emperor Wanli heard that the censors were targeting the cabinet, Emperor Wanli laughed unconscionably.

Moreover, I drank an extra bottle of sparkling water in a good mood.

"I didn't expect the cabinet ministers to experience my painful day."

Emperor Wanli made some sarcastic remarks first, and then asked, "What are you going to do?"

Zhu Changluo did not intend to directly tell Emperor Wanli what he thought.

Because it is not good to talk too much, even if it is a close relative.

Zhu Changluo said: "I haven't made up my mind yet."

When Emperor Wanli heard Zhu Changluo's answer, he paused for a moment, and then sighed: "That's right, these censors are like mad dogs, they catch and bite whoever they want. If you really can't think of a way to deal with it, then Just watch quietly."

Emperor Wanli was an old salted fish when he opened his mouth.No wonder he has been able to persist in negligence for decades. It turns out that he has long understood the essence of rottenness.

Zhu Changluo hummed, and then continued to chat with Emperor Wanli.

And the most common topic on Emperor Wanli's side is, "How much silver has been saved in my internal funds now."

The lines between the lines are full of pride and showing off, as if the money was earned by Emperor Wanli himself.

When Zhu Changluo heard about the great achievements of Emperor Wanli in saving money, he was also deeply moved.

What kind of childhood experience and psychological journey made an emperor so obsessed with saving money?
Although, Zhu Changluo also felt that Emperor Wanli's love of money was a bit inconsistent with the status of the emperor as supreme and wealthy.

However, when I think about the original historical time and space, it was because of Emperor Wanli's internal funds of 3000 million yuan that Daming was given the last chance to breathe.Zhu Changluo felt that Emperor Wanli actually did a good job.

After all, not long after the death of Emperor Wanli, after Emperor Taichang, who was holding a one-month emperor experience card, died suddenly, the little carpenter emperor and his chief minister Ye Xianggao all praised the deeds of Emperor Wanli for saving money.

Ye Xianggao worked as the sole minister for seven years in the Wanli Dynasty, and after he became the chief assistant in the Tianqi Dynasty, he wrote this in the first memorial to Emperor Tianqi:
"I used to always suspect that the emperor was rich all over the world, but why did the emperor deliberately collect the wealth of the world? Now that the Eastern captives are in trouble, the borders are suddenly destroyed, and the wealth of the whole country cannot continue to be paid by Liao, so we have to ask for internal money from time to time. I Only then did I suddenly understand the foresight of the emperor."

It's a pity that Daming, who was about to die, never seized this opportunity again, and the ruling and opposition parties were still fighting frantically!
Such fierce and fruitless party struggles can only consume the last potential of Daming infinitely.

In the end, this glorious dynasty started by the Han people still ended at the speed of free fall, more than 20 years after the death of Emperor Wanli, and died of hatred.

Speaking of Ye Xianggao, Zhu Changluo also had a terrible headache.

In the 25th year of Wanli, Ye Xianggao was appointed by Emperor Wanli as Zhu Changluo's attendant lecturer, and he specially taught Zhu Changluo couplets, calligraphy and word meaning.Zhu Changluo was also quite polite to this Mr. Shidu from Fujian.

However, there is one thing that Zhu Changluo doesn't like very much, that is, Ye Xianggao is very bookish.People in their thirties still tend to listen and believe, without any opinions, which makes Zhu Changluo unhappy.

Ye Xianggao made a lot of nonsense about the mining tax imposed by Emperor Wanli only on the basis of his own partial information, and he would go up and down fiercely against the mining tax, thinking that the mining tax was a dispute with the people. Li strongly urged Zhu Changluo to abolish the mining tax.

And Zhu Changluo didn't bother to bother with him about these things, and directly used the reason that the son would not change the father's rule, and rejected him.

After all, there are some things that cannot be explained in a few words, and he must experience them personally in order for him to understand the importance of mining tax.

Speaking of this, Zhu Changluo gritted his teeth and thought of those big households in places that made his teeth hurt so much.

Relying on their position as local opinion leaders, these big households are dishonest at all, inciting the local people to besiege the mine envoys at every turn, trying to stimulate the mining tax to kill people, so as to disturb the audiovisual and profit from it.

Fortunately, Zhu Changluo had prepared in advance, otherwise, according to the urine nature of the gang of eunuchs and mine envoys sent by Emperor Wanli, they would have been trapped by the gang of local tyrants and evil gentry, causing bloodshed.

And Zhu Changluo has never killed this group of ignorant local tyrants and evil gentry, because he thought that he would suffer the consequences if he beat a snake, so he didn't touch them.

After all, this group of people directly influenced the behavior and thinking of the people at the bottom of Ming Dynasty.If there is no suitable method to divide and kill them, this group of people will definitely incite the common people to kill officials and rebel and shake the foundation of Ming Dynasty.

At that time, Zhu Changluo will be sitting on the wax.After all, the torrent of terror formed by the common people was not something a feudal dynasty could bear.

Such dynasties destroyed by peasant uprisings, but there is no shortage of great dynasties like the Qin, Han, and Tang Dynasties.

Although Zhu Changluo is a time traveler, he is not arrogant enough to think that he can really control everything.

After all, there were too many illiterates in the feudal era, and too many poor people.

They are like a powder keg, if they are not careful, they will blow up directly, and then countless Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong will be blown up.

At that time, Zhu Changluo will not be as lucky as Emperor Yuan Shun, and there will be a grassland and desert that can be used as a backyard for running.

His fate will only be worse by Chongzhen!
Maybe even the nine imperial mausoleums on Tianshou Mountain in the outskirts of the capital will suffer catastrophe!
Moreover, such horrible disasters are not uncommon in history.

How many wise and powerful emperors, when their dynasties were in the final years of precarious collapse, which one of their imperial mausoleums could completely survive the catastrophe of the demons dancing around during the dynasty change?

Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum was half-planed by Xiang Yu; Han Wudi's Mao Mausoleum was successively excavated by Chi Mei, Dong Zhuo, and Huang Chao. It is hard to say whether a complete piece of Han Wu bones can be found in it.

There is also the Zhaoling Mausoleum of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. Not only was it stolen at the end of the Tang Dynasty, but after 1914, even the stone carvings of the six steeds in front of the mausoleum were stolen and cut off by foreigners.

There are also the tombs of the Manchu Qing emperors. Even after decades of civilized Westernization Movement in the late Qing Dynasty, their imperial tombs were eventually dug up by warlords who took advantage of the situation?

Therefore, Zhu Changluo doesn't think that the world is in chaos now, and the rebels who caused the chaos in the Ming Dynasty will have high quality and will not move the Ming Emperor's Mausoleum.

On the contrary, they will definitely attack the Ming Emperor's Mausoleum!After all, there must be a lot of priceless treasures in these imperial mausoleums, and it would be hell to leave such a big treasure mountain without digging.

Therefore, Zhu Changluo now has to endure what ordinary people cannot bear!
He needs to slowly accumulate strength, and then wait for the time to move, and knock down those hypocrites and guardians who are full of morality on their mouths but are full of thieves and robbers in their stomachs.

Only in this way can Zhu Changluo liberate the great potential of this empire.Then, go through the horror of the Little Ice Age smoothly, and once again create a peerless chapter belonging to the Han dynasty!

Therefore, even if Ye Xianggao is making noise about the mining tax every day, Zhu Changluo is still too disturbed.

But finally admitted.

Zhu Changluo directly sent Ye Xianggao to Nanjing as the right servant of the Nanjing Ministry of Industry with just a transfer order, and asked him to be responsible for the mining tax work in the six southern provinces, so that he could personally experience the evil deeds of the local tyrants and evil gentry.

If he had seen through the essence, he would not have joined forces with those local tyrants and evil gentry.

Zhu Changluo just sharpened his temperament by the way, maybe one day after polishing, Zhu Changluo can also use this Ye Xianggao who has been a "lonely prime minister" for seven years in the original history.

After all, it is not so easy to find officials with genuine prime ministerial talents.And Ye Xianggao is exactly this kind of person. As long as he is well-polished, this person's overall view is completely reliable.

But if he can't see through this tragic reality, Zhu Changluo will not hesitate to give up Ye Xianggao, who has been a "lonely prime minister" for seven years, and then spend his time cultivating a court worthy of great responsibility Shoufu comes out.

After all, Zhu Changluo couldn't afford to lose either. He couldn't give unconditional trust to those so-called historical officials just by seeing them.

If he really follows the map and uses the list of famous ministers in history to use the ministers to reform the status quo, then he is no different from a fool.

Closer to home, continue the great cause of Emperor Wanli saving silver!

"Father, when you are free, you can pay more attention to the situation of the Daming Royal Bank. With this bank in our hands, let alone tens of millions of taels of silver, even if it is a huge silver mountain, we will pay for it." I can save it."

Having said that, Emperor Wanli's eyes lit up instantly.

No one knows how to save money better than him.

He seems to be a born financial expert. After Zhu Changluo created the Royal Bank of Ming Dynasty, Emperor Wanli has been exploring and studying the bank's operating routines.

Now it can be said that Emperor Wanli has become a senior management consultant of this Daming Royal Bank, and some of his ideas can actually coincide with the management model of modern banks.

Now, under the escort of Emperor Wanli, the Daming Royal Bank has become one of the largest commercial banks in the capital.

Many of the former Shanxi merchants and Huizhou merchants' big customers now have signs of switching to Daming Royal Bank.

In the eyes of these people, the services and conditions provided by the Royal Bank of Daming seem to be the best.

If it weren't for the short date of establishment of Daming Royal Bank, there would be no word-of-mouth effect.

Maybe, all the money the capital spends when they go out is the small bank notes of the Royal Bank of Ming Dynasty, which is the paper currency that Zhu Changluo worked so hard to make.

Emperor Wanli said confidently: "Don't worry, Chang Luo, with me here, Daming Royal Bank will definitely become the most important property of our Xishan Huangzhuang. In the future, it will definitely become famous in the whole of Beizhili."

When he said this, Emperor Wanli almost patted his chest to promise Zhu Changluo.

Looking at the confident Emperor Wanli, Zhu Changluo smiled.

Emperor Wanli still underestimated the power of this bank and the advantages of rule makers.

However, this cannot be blamed for the short-sightedness of Emperor Wanli.

After all, since the Xia and Shang Dynasties, no imperial court has regarded economic indicators as one of the parameters of state management.

The feudal dynasty still judged the so-called prosperity by the amount of land tax each year.

Zhu Changluo said: "With the presence of the emperor father, the ministers will have the backbone."

Emperor Wanli smiled and said, "Hey, I'm just a hard worker. I'm already raising my health in Xishan Huangzhuang, and I still have to worry about what's going on behind you."

Zhu Changluo said: "It's the son's blessing that the father can take care of the son like this. When the son grows up, he will definitely respect the father and let the father enjoy the family happiness."

Emperor Wanli was happy to hear that. He looked at Zhu Changluo's size and said, "You are not too young now, and you are almost going to be a father. I am very relieved to let you supervise the country this year. During this time, I will I have always wanted to not pass the position directly to you. Then I will wholeheartedly recuperate my body in Xishan Huangzhuang."

Zhu Changluo was shocked when he heard what Emperor Wanli said!
What does this mean?
Is it a test?
Or sincerely?

Zhu Changluo wasn't sure.

After all, that is the supreme throne!
How can you just let it go?

Zhu Changluo immediately got up and bowed: "Father is cautious in his words, and my son is terrified! My son is no more than a middleman, and it is already beyond his power to manage the country. And the father is in the prime of life, how dare the son covet the big position? Son I just want to be filial to my father, and make my father healthy and healthy, which is my greatest wish."

Emperor Wanli looked at Zhu Changluo who had such a big reaction, he took a sip of sparkling water and said, "I'm just thinking about it, why are you so nervous?"

"Besides, I have long been tired of the tedious government affairs. Wouldn't it be nice to have you help me deal with the government affairs? Anyway, you have supervised the country for a year, and you know the general process of the court. It’s time to help me with a heavier burden.”

Emperor Wanli revealed this idea again, which does not seem to be fake.

However, Zhu Changluo still didn't dare to accept the move just like that.

After all, the human heart is unpredictable, and the emperor's heart is even more unpredictable.

This is the idea now, but after a while, it might change.

Therefore, Zhu Changluo is determined not to accept the move!
Although, he now has the strength to win the throne through a palace coup.

However, the throne obtained in this way is not justified, Zhu Changluo does not know how much time it will take to make the subjects of the world surrender.

Therefore, the most beneficial thing for Zhu Changluo now is to supervise the country as the crown prince, and to hold the real power of the emperor!

Instead of going to the name of the emperor who has its own appearance.

Zhu Changluo bowed again: "Father, my son is really still young. How can I take on such a heavy responsibility? If my father makes such a joke again, my son will please resign from the position of supervisor and return to my father. Then, Just pampering the concubines in the Ciqing Palace and Xishan Huangzhuang to give birth to more fat grandchildren for the father."

Emperor Wanli was stunned by Zhu Changluo's reaction.

Can't this silly boy see that I'm sincere?
Whatever it is, let him do it.

As long as he doesn't continue to manage annoying government affairs, he can do whatever he wants.

Emperor Wanli took another sip of sparkling water depressed, but he didn't expect that the throne would not be handed over.

However, after this, Emperor Wanli's trust in Zhu Changluo reached a new height.

This child is really filial.

Faced with such a huge temptation, he didn't even think about rejecting it.

It can be seen from this that his good son really loves his old father who has broken his heart for his son.

Thinking of this, Emperor Wanli became more motivated to save money for his son.

Then Emperor Wanli drank the remaining half bottle of sparkling water in one go, and then let out a long and satisfying belch.
