Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 356 Public and Private

Zhu Yunying is in a good mood, probably because he is more sure about some things, and he is not too worried about some things going out of control.

Needless to say, the Wu Xun Group is basically on the same boat as the Zhu family, and Zhu Yunying is the out-and-out captain.

As for the civil official group, it is not the Song Dynasty, nor is it the middle and late Ming Dynasty in history. Although the status of literati has improved, such improvement is relatively limited.Fighting against the imperial power, civil servants are still in a hurry.

As for the aristocratic family, it has been continuously weakening the aristocratic family since Wu Zetian in history.After the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and the repeated cleansing by the Khitans, Jurchens, and Mongols, the strength of the aristocratic families has been severely weakened.

Although there are indeed some famous families nowadays, it's just that these people are so important that they don't think they can change the court situation.

Let's not talk about Zhu Yunying's own prestige, considering that Lao Zhu is still in charge, the others are enough to be terrified.

Zhu Yunying, who left in a huff, left Fengtian Hall and asked Wang Chengen to pass the decree to Fengxian Hall.After a lot of tossing, there is no peace in the palace. Now everyone can go back to their respective palaces. This big drama will be suspended for a while today.

As for Zhu Yunying, he naturally went straight to Qianqing Palace, those who didn't know thought the emperor was going to ask for a crime.

In Qianqing Palace, Lao Zhu was in a good mood, "This is a willow tree. If you say that the plan for this year lies in spring, the willow tree is the first to sprout."

Little Zhu didn't believe it, and said, "Grandfather Gao, there are still many green leaves, and I still have plum blossoms."

Lao Zhu began to teach patiently that plum blossoms bloom in winter.And some trees and some flowers are green all year round.Falling leaves like willows are different. In spring, buds grow, and in autumn, the leaves turn yellow and fall. Look again in winter, that is, bare trunks and branches.

Seeing Zhu Yunying approaching, little Zhu ran over cheering, Zhu Yunying cheerfully hugged little Zhu.

"Heavy enough, he deserves to be our son!" Zhu Yunying said cheerfully after picking up little Zhu and weighing him.

Little Zhu was also very happy, hugged Zhu Yunying and said, "Father, I'll sit on the shoulders!"

Without saying anything, Zhu Yunying gently exerted force.Little Zhu skillfully sat on Zhu Yunying's shoulders, holding Zhu Yunying's head with her two little hands, smiling very happily.

Old Zhu also watched cheerfully, not to mention little Zhu sitting on his shoulders, Lao Zhu often let little Zhu sit on his back.

This treatment is what Lao Zhu has been looking forward to for a long time, because his grandson is too sensible, and Lao Zhu used to want to 'become a cow or a horse' to carry his grandson, but such opportunities are rare.Occasionally, it was basically he and Empress Ma who coaxed Xiao Zhu, and Xiao Zhu reluctantly sat on Lao Zhu's back and asked Lao Zhu to crawl twice on the couch.

Just like this, Xiao Zhu still feels sorry for his grandpa, and is reluctant to let his grandpa climb a few more laps.Lao Zhu felt relieved and felt distressed at the same time. His grandson is too sensible and filial, which is naturally a good thing.But sometimes, the fun of having grandchildren is also missing.

Fortunately, the grandson is too sensible, and the great-grandson is not precocious, but a troublesome child.

Of course, Lao Zhu is also very old-fashioned and double-standard. Others cannot sit on his shoulders.Xiao Zhu's shoulders, in Lao Zhu's view, meant that little Zhu could sit on.Even the little princess whom her grandson loves so much cannot sit down.

Carrying little Zhu to the dormitory, Zhu Yunying said, "Grandpa Emperor, our Yin'er cried so well today."

Lao Zhu immediately smiled, and said to Zhu Yunying, "That's right! If our prince hadn't been sensible, you and the queen would have been scolded by us! The prince's cry is considered to have saved you. I will give you a step down, and it won't hurt your skin .”

Zhu Yunying became happy, and said with a smile, "It's better to be taught by Grandpa Huang. Our prince can help us deal with the affairs in the court. In a few years, Grandpa Huang and Yin'er will continue to help us, so we can handle things better." .”

Looking at little Zhu who was grabbing the fruit and stuffing it into his mouth, Old Zhu smiled, "Success, let's live a few more years. When we live to be eighty, we can see Yin'er helping you manage the government."

"Eighty?" Zhu Yunying objected with a smile, "That's not okay, at least 85, then it can help us. Our family doesn't want us, we can do a lot of things before we are ten years old, and we probably won't be able to do anything when we are ten years old." Just being naughty."

Little Zhu didn't think it was a criticism, so he smirked at Old Zhu with his fat face up.

"We think it's good for you to lose your temper today, but you and your father are too soft-tempered." Old Zhu smiled and praised Zhu Yunying, "You are the emperor, and you have to be kind and powerful. You have to make them afraid of you, respect you is not enough, You have to make those people afraid of you. In this way, you will be able to do things smoothly in the future. Look at us, how dare they not listen to what we say?"

Zhu Yunying was amused, and corrected, "Grandfather, we and our father are not soft-tempered. We remember that when we criticized red, our father was very easy to draw. That family was either imprisoned or went to the execution ground. "

"It's still benevolent, it's better to be overbearing!" Lao Zhu laughed, but he was only joking before, "It's good that you are like this, we are a domineering emperor, and I guess someone will call us a tyrant in the future. Your side A little kindness, and the people below will sing praises. That's how we are, one is ruthless and the other is kind."

Zhu Yunying nodded cheerfully, because it looks like this is the preparation now.In the past, the old Zhu was ruthless, and the big Zhu was kuanren.But now, although Lao Zhu is a little 'kind', it is relatively limited.So Zhu Yunying is a little stricter than Da Zhu, but once he compares with old Zhu, Zhu Yunying is a benevolent king.

Little Zhu sat obediently on Xiao Zhu's shoulders, although he couldn't understand what his father and great-grandfather were saying.But it doesn't prevent Xiao Zhu from getting used to this way of getting along, getting used to following adults and listening to some things.

It doesn't matter if you don't understand, this is two generations of emperors who are educating the future emperors, let little Zhu be interested in some things, let this little guy start to understand some truths at a young age.

Old Zhu smiled and handed the fruit plate to Xiao Zhu again, and Xiao Zhu felt overwhelmed with security.There is no need to support his father at all, and he is eating the fruit with his bow left and right.This is the courage of little Zhu, and this is the demeanor of the crown prince.

"The reason why grandson came to his mind is that those literati are ignorant and always want to limit the imperial power." Zhu Yunying opened his mouth and said to Lao Zhu, "This time we are not going to kill anyone, but to show them off. "

Lao Zhu nodded, and then said, "From our point of view, I'm afraid your thoughts are not limited to these. The domestic money and the national treasury have been troubled in recent years. You either want to make a clear distinction, or you just want to Get it all back."

"It's not necessary to take it back, the treasury has always been under our control." Zhu Yunying said quite proudly, "Grandson just can't understand those people who take the treasury too tightly. Our foundation was weak before the Ming Dynasty, so we should Reserve some supplies. It’s just that some things, not just hiding them, should come in handy.”

In fact, Lao Zhu did not particularly agree with Xiao Zhu's statement. In Lao Zhu's point of view, only when there is silver, grain, cloth, etc. in the treasury can one feel at ease.In his opinion, the more those things, the better, and it is best to only enter and exit, that is the world is peaceful.

However, Lao Zhu did not speak out against it. The one sitting on the dragon chair now was his grandson, a grandson who made him extremely proud and proud.

This has all been abdicated. If you continue to point and point all day long, it will not be conducive to your grandson's control of the court.If something really went wrong, I'll help clean up the mess when the time comes.There is no need to say that now, let his grandson practice well, and he also thinks he can live a few more years, so that he can protect his grandson.

"Actually, internal money, with our temperament, is no different from the national treasury." Zhu Yunying laughed, and said to Lao Zhu, "And our father, they are all the same. We are all reluctant to spend money, and we are not too particular about food and drink. .”

"Your father is fine. You don't seem to be particular about it, but you are more picky than anyone else if you want to be particular about it." Lao Zhu said with a smile, "Speaking of which, no matter how careless we are, we are much better than ordinary people. There are countless people who serve us inside and outside the palace. What we eat and use are also the best."

Needless to say, Zhu Yunying continued, "Internal money, we have made up too much for the national treasury these years. As long as the court is short of money, we are not reluctant, nor are we using the money to repair gardens. It's just that some time ago At that time, we also said that we should make the clan's life easier, so we can't be careless about the internal money."

Old Zhu was stunned for a moment, and asked quickly, "You mean, the salary of our clan will be paid from within?"

So far in the Ming Dynasty, the royal family’s salaries and so on are the responsibility of the imperial court, that is to say, those outputs are paid for by the treasury.And the reason why Lao Zhu is so sensitive now is because Zhu Yunying means to bear the internal money.

Zhu Yunying quickly said, "That's not going to happen. We only need to bear some, otherwise the internal funds will be emptied. The emperor still needs to keep some spare money, or if something really happens, the treasury can't transfer the money, so we still have to pay for it." Our emperor pays for it himself."

Lao Zhu was relieved now, if the clan's salary is really borne by internal funds, it seems that there is no need to worry about being unable to bear it now.But now it is really only the internal money that is responsible, and that is a big problem.

For example, there will always be too much in the future, and internal money may not be able to take care of it.What's more, all the internal money was used to support the clan, and the emperor didn't even have an emergency money bag, which was obviously not a good thing.Or if the internal money is really released in the future, and the treasury does not pay the money, the clan will stare blankly.

Therefore, part of the internal funds can be borne, and the imperial court also needs to bear the majority, so that the life of the clan can be guaranteed.After all, the treasury's income is relatively stable, and the clan doesn't need to worry about a break.

As for internal money, it is okay to bear part of it, because internal money can also bring enough benefits.
