Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 115 This is the rule

Three urgent reports were sent from Tianjin to Peiping, which brought good news.

The Iwami Silver Mine finally produced output. Although the mine was found and the ore was dug out before, there was almost no smelting.But this time is different. Although less than 1 taels of silver have been produced, the first batch of silver has already been put into storage.

This made Zhu Xiongying very satisfied and proud. This is the report from Jin Yiwei Mao Xiang, the commander of the capital Si Changsen, and the general Feng Sheng.Although it is possible that the three of them conspired together, this possibility is not very high.

Zhu Xiongying smiled happily, and calculated quite complacently, "This is a letter sent a month ago. According to them, 3 taels can be mined this month, and 5 taels of silver can be collected and sent back. "

This is not good, 5 taels of silver is really nothing.Although this is just the beginning of mining, the next silver output will be more.But Zhu Xiongying felt that this was far from enough. More miners and more troops were needed.

Zhu Xiongying also believed that Ying Tianfu would definitely receive the message in a few days.

"What the hell is going on with me? I'm writing imperial decrees every day." Zhu Xiongying shook his head and said with emotion, "Uncles need to work harder at this time. I have to find a way to make money for you. Don't ask for so much military power."

It is about princes like Qin Wang Zhu Yu and Jin Wang Zhu Yu, they don't need to hold too much military power.Since you want to make money, then take out some of your troops and go to Korea and Japan to share your worries.

Zhu Xiongying, who wrote the imperial decree, was quite proud, "Man dies for money, and birds die for food. Now that I know that there is a lot of silver output over there, the uncles must be willing to send troops to garrison, so they can get a little share of the pie." Except for a very small number of rotten scholars in the hall, they will babble, but others will encourage us to send more soldiers and horses to garrison!"

Profitable, this is the most important thing, and it will become an important source of income for Daming.

The bank can consider it, and can slowly save the increasingly depleted copper resources.The silver standard, Zhu Xiongying thinks such a thing can be considered, although he also knows that there is not enough productivity, and silver is just some metals, but it does not prevent Zhu Xiongying from looking forward to more silver yards being placed in the treasury.

Xu Miaoqing walked into the study gracefully and said, "Your Highness, it's time to eat."

Zhu Xiongying raised his head and said to Xu Miaoqing, "It's time to see each other, we are all married. Qing'er, this title needs to be changed."

Xu Miaoqing blushed slightly, and whispered, "Husband."

It's no wonder that Xu Miaoqing is cautious, mainly because in her education, it is right to marry and obey her husband.What's more, she is a grandson concubine, and calling herself a "concubine" is not modest.She is not only a wife, but also a courtier...

What's more, Xu Miaoqing was terrified when she saw Zhu Xiongying's imperial decree on the book case.The more she gets to know Zhu Xiongying, the more she believes that Zhu Xiongying will definitely ascend to the supreme position in the future.In the past, when she heard that the grandson was favored, or someone privately said that Daming had three suns, she thought it was a bit exaggerated.

But after marrying into the royal family, Xu Miaoqing felt that those statements were still conservative. Now there are really three people in Ming Dynasty who can draft imperial edicts.Daming has three masters, this is not a joke, this is a fact!
Wang Chengen naturally knew what to do, where to send these edicts, and who should pass on the edicts, he naturally knew it well.And he also needs to go to Song Zhong immediately. If these imperial decrees are spread, he must go to Yingtian Mansion for the record, and let His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know, so that nothing goes wrong.

Zhu Xiongying ate the food and asked casually, "Qing'er, are you still used to it here?"

Xu Miaoqing put down her chopsticks, and immediately replied, "It's not bad, although it's a bit different from Jiangnan, my concubine..."

"There are not so many rules. Our old Zhu's family is an ordinary family. I have not forgotten this, and you should not forget it." Zhu Xiongying said to Xu Miaoqing with a smile, "There are no such rules in front of me, and there is no need to be in front of the emperor's grandfather." Like that."

Xu Miaoqing smiled wryly, Zhu Xiongying didn't need to care about the rules, because the emperor and prince allowed it.Especially His Majesty the Emperor, the great-grandson of Zhu Xiongying, can be unruly.But other people can't do it. In front of other people, Lao Zhu has very strict requirements on the rules, even the grandson concubine can't do it.

Zhu Xiongying didn't seem to realize it, and said, "When the imperial grandmother was here, we used to eat and talk at the same time, just like ordinary people. There is no need to care about eating and sleeping without talking, and the imperial grandfather doesn't like those either. "

Xu Miaoqing didn't speak even more, and eating with Lao Zhu would put her under a lot of pressure.But Zhu Xiongying didn't have this awareness. He talked and laughed naturally in Lao Zhu, and he didn't follow the rules at all.

It's just that Xu Miaoqing was also happier and secretly happy. The emperor's grandson treated her very well, and the emperor's grandson was approachable, which of course couldn't be better.Some of the things I worried about before marrying into the royal family don't seem to be happening.

"Husband, yesterday Xi'er sent someone to pass the message that Sister Yu'er's eldest son is about to have his birthday." Xu Miaoqing glanced at Zhu Xiongying, mustered up the courage and whispered, "The minister and concubine are over, let someone send over the clothes that the husband usually wears." jade pendant."

Zhu Xiongying laughed loudly, and said to Xu Miaoqing, "You will remember these days well in the future, I can't remember these things. In the future, sister Yu'er should not give jade pendants anymore. She knows that although I wear jade, it can't be said much. Like, close."

Xu Miaoqing became more courageous, and had some rebuttal opinions, "My husband's words are a bit wrong. Sister Yu'er naturally knows her husband's temperament. She just rewarded the jade pendant for other people to see. The husband's favorite body, jade Things that Sister Er likes are naturally good, but other people don't know about them, and Sister Yuer's dignity is missing."

It makes sense to say that, sometimes when giving gifts, you have to consider some face-saving matters.Especially for people in high positions like Zhu Xiongying, the gifts they rewarded often made some people try to figure out the thoughts of the high-ranking people.

Wang Chengen appeared with a sad face, and knelt down directly, "Your Highness, the princess has brought someone out of the city."

Zhu Xiongying was also speechless, and asked, "Is anyone following?"

"Since there are people following her, it's fine. She was locked up in the palace for a long time before, so she should be let out to make trouble." Zhu Xiongying sighed, and then said, "It looks like I'm going to get married soon, that's about a year and a half. I can go out and go wild."

Zhu Xiongying felt that his elder brother had failed quite a bit. His younger brother was just released from the palace, sleeping in flowers and staying in willows, and Jinwu Zangjiao, and now he has become the biggest dude in Yingtian Mansion.Now that my sister is in Beiping, she is like a bird released from a cage. She is either traveling in mountains and rivers or hunting on horseback. She is tougher than ordinary men.

Xu Miaoqing couldn't help being envious, because her father attached great importance to rules, and so did her brother.So Zhu Xi and Zhu Yue, such elder brothers who indulged their mischief, really made her feel more envious.

It's just that Xu Miaoqing is also worried sometimes, worrying that her two sisters-in-law will feel uncomfortable after they become monks.

Zhu Xiongying doesn't care about these things, he still trusts his younger siblings.Although I don't like reading, and I don't know how to be a female celebrity, I don't seem to be particularly knowledgeable, virtuous and virtuous, and may not meet some requirements of this era.It's just that their personalities are not bad, this is what Zhu Xiongying is happiest about.

He is also qualified, qualified to let his younger siblings go free without being bound by some so-called rules.

Zhu Xun from Xi'an, Zhu Xun from Taiyuan, and Zhu Xun who had just been released back to Kaifeng, these three feudal lords received the imperial edict almost at the same time.Naturally, they also understood that this edict was not issued by their father, but they chose to pretend to be confused.

These princes are said to have three guarding military powers, and the total number of troops in their hands may be close to [-] people, or even more.But now, they are jealous, and feel that they can't wait to send everyone to Dongpu immediately.

Goryeo and Dongying need troops to garrison them. It is promised in the imperial decree that they can get 10 taels of silver every year!

Zhu Xiongying was very generous and promised 30 taels of silver in one go.But this is nothing to the Iwami Silver Mine. If it continues to increase, the Iwami Silver Mine can mine more than 300 million taels of silver every year.

What's more, these princes can get some benefits now. After three or five years, once Japan and Korea are stabilized, these military powers will be taken away.It can also be said that once these soldiers and horses go to Korea and Dongying, they will no longer be guards of the prince.

Each prince sent a guard, and each prince sent a full staff of 5600 people.

Zhu Xiong and the others naturally knew what Zhu Xiongying was thinking.But with a profit of at least 10 taels of silver every year, coupled with the unstoppable trend, one less guard house means one less guard house. They still have to choose to be obedient.

After all, this kind of thing also shows closeness and distance, and other princes don't have such treatment.

In Yingtianfu, Lao Zhu also received a report from Dongying.He laughed loudly and was extremely proud. The previous war was under some pressure, and it was completely relying on the authority of the founding emperor to forcibly advance the expedition.

But it's different now. The output of tens of thousands of taels of silver or millions of taels of silver every year will drive those civil and military men into madness.Those people will be clamoring to attack Japan, and to thoroughly punish those disobedient ministers. The "Emperor" is the crime, and it is the crime of conniving Japanese pirates to harass the border back then!

"Biaoer, the first batch of 5 taels of silver is about to be sent back!" Lao Zhu was in a good mood, and said to Da Zhu who was reviewing the memorial, "Feng Sheng said in the memorial that as long as we continue to send more people, every You can get at least 10 taels of silver a month."

Da Zhu raised his head and said to Lao Zhu, "My craftsmen in Ming Dynasty are highly skilled. At least the homeland is hard to leave. Many people still don't want to go to Korea and Dongying. Yinger likes to use prisoners and captives. Let Feng Sheng catch some Dongying people to do something. Let's work in the mines."

Skilled ones are done by Ming craftsmen. Dangerous physical work such as mining is done by the local aborigines. It doesn’t matter if the population is scarce, just grab more and come back.
