I want to be a grandson

Chapter 281 King Yan is here!

The subordinate officer looked at him, and said cautiously: "Your Highness, Your Majesty has made him the grandson of the emperor, who dares not open his eyes to make things difficult for him? Isn't this asking for death?"

Zhu Xi gave him a hard look, and cursed: "Get out! Young master is pointing at Sang and scolding Huai here! I don't know such a simple truth, and I don't need you to explain it! Get lost wherever you are! See you! bother!"

The subordinate officer saluted and retreated resentfully.

You must know that the main officials of the palace are generally appointed by the court, so they will only face the court.

However, there is also a matter of whom the vassal is close to, so he asks the court to appoint him as an official of the palace.

Of course, some vassal kings behaved badly, or they were relatively threatening, so the court appointed some subordinate officials, firstly to persuade and restrain the vassal kings' behavior.

Secondly, it is also for surveillance, to prevent the feudal lords from doing evil things that harm the people, not to mention plotting rebellion.

So once something happens, they will immediately report it to the court.

However, whether it is the appointment of the imperial court or the request of the vassal king himself, if something happens to a group of vassal kings, the first person to be questioned is the officials of the palace.

Therefore, although the officials of the palace are working under the various vassals, they must still be loyal to the court.

"Ugh……"

Zhu Xi sighed and couldn't help shaking his head secretly...

He understood everything the subordinate said, and knew that this was his reminder to himself.

However, under the condition of having equal inheritance rights, it is always a pity to lose the opportunity to be emperor...

But Zhu Xi also knew that he didn't have any chance!
Why did Zhu Yuanzhang punish the emperor's grandson?Wasn't that just to show kindness to Zhu Yunxi and make him feel grateful to him!

And this grandson of the emperor is indeed too shrewd, able to make perfect use of every opportunity, his wisdom and means are not to be underestimated...

With the support of Zhu Yuanzhang, and he is very capable, how can he win it!
"Oh forget it... don't want to..."

……

Baozhao's name has the word "暴" in it, but he is not at all irritable, nor is he in any hurry.

Whether it is dressing or ordinary living habits, they are very frugal.

A suit of ordinary clothes always needs to be washed many times, so that the color of every piece of clothing on the body is dull.

New three years, old three years, sewing and mending another three years.

Bao Zhao can be said to be the most true portrayal of this sentence.

It is clean and tidy to wear on the body, but there is no poor look at all.

But no matter what clothes he wore, it was hard to hide the light from his eyes.

"Bao Zhao, how many official positions have you been awarded by the Ministry of Officials?" Zhu Yunxi asked while sitting on a chair in the Wenhua Hall.

Standing behind him were guards Qu Tao and Zhang Fu. As guards of the Eastern Palace, they were all "retainers" after all.

Although everyone knew that they were His Royal Highness's confidantes, they still had to abide by the rules and not sit down in front of others.

Sitting on the chair, Qi Tae Tiexuan couldn't help turning his gaze to the newcomer Bao Zhao.

Bao Zhao replied: "Returning to Your Highness, Jin Yiwei has declared credit for his subordinates, so the Ministry of Officials has awarded his subordinates a sixth-rank official position. This is all thanks to His Highness, thank you Your Highness!"

Of course, Bao Zhao knew that Jin Yiwei would not give him credit for no reason.

Even though I found out that someone was spreading rumors about His Highness, Jin Yiwei took credit for them, what can you do?
Moreover, I am just a student of the imperial court. According to the unspoken rules of the imperial court, if you are an ordinary student with no power, no influence, and no background, then even if you are awarded an official position by the Ministry of Officials, you are just an unknown official.

Just like in history, Bao Zhao was awarded such a humble official as the secretary of the Dali Temple of the ninth rank.

And the reason why the Ministry of Officials made him a sixth-rank official all of a sudden, if there was no relationship with His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun, it would definitely not work.

However, this is also due to the fact that the official system in the early Ming Dynasty was not so well-regulated, and the Ministry of Officials had a gap in the process of awarding officials.

Zhu Yunxi nodded and said, "Then you should go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to be the head of the department. Are you familiar with the matters that the Ministry of Finance originally managed?"

Bao Zhao knew that His Royal Highness was examining himself, so he bowed and replied, "Reporting to Your Highness, there are four departments in the Ministry of Accounting, which are divided into Headquarters, Duzhi, Cangbu and Jinbu..."

"The Ministry of Gold is mainly responsible for treasury, the affairs of the Shipbuilding Department, and the collection of taxes other than local taxes such as minting money, tea tax and salt tax... I don't know what my subordinates are right."

You must know that the highest leader of the household department in the Ming Dynasty was Shangshu, followed by the left and right ministers. Before Hongwu 23 years, it had four departments:

The first is called the headquarters, which is responsible for managing the registered population of the whole world, land taxation, and losses caused by floods and droughts.

The second is called the Du Branch, which is responsible for assessing and calibrating the amount of money and grain, managing the amount of money and grain rewarded, and the salary of hundreds of officials. It is a bit like today's accountant.

The third department is called the Ministry of Finance. This department sounds like a department that manages business and finance, but in fact it manages exactly as Bao Zhao said.

The last department is the Warehouse Department. The name of this department will make people think that it manages the warehouse, but it is not the case. The Warehouse Department is responsible for managing money and grain transported by water, military grain storage and other miscellaneous grains collected.

In history, after the Hu Weiyong case in the 23rd year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang carried out a huge reform of the household department, abolishing these four departments, and assigning various affairs to each subordinate department, which was later the Cleaning Department.

Although the household department does not have the departments and positions of the four departments, there are still these things in the affairs managed by the household department.

Zhu Yunxi nodded and said, "That's right, then you should familiarize yourself with these first, and take care of other matters when the time is right."

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Bao Zhao saluted.

Zhu Yunxi then said to Qi Tai Tiexuan: "The annual audit of the household department is a major event. Although there are servants Yu Xin and Fu Youwen, you can't slack off."

"Be sure to check clearly, there must be no place where there is any dirt! Those moths should be cleaned up immediately!"

"The Ministry of Households is in charge of Daming's treasury. How much income, how much expenditure, and how much surplus you can have in a year must be clear. Only when the court has money and food can it do things, so it will not be tied down. .”

"We will definitely work together, Your Highness, please rest assured!" The two replied.

Zhu Yunxie then ordered: "Tie Xuan Baozhao, the two of you go to the Ministry of Punishment and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to find out the distribution of all the bandits and bandits in Daming territory, as well as the merchants and trading routes in various places. Clearly, this will be a fortune in the coming year!"

Tie Xuan said: "There are various merchants in the household department, this matter is not difficult, please rest assured, Your Highness."

Bao Zhao also said: "The mountain bandits and thieves from all over the country will be reported to the court after they are captured. These are recorded in the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and there are also records in some places where the five army governors participated in the extermination of mountain bandits. Just consolidate and summarize them. Please rest assured, my highness. Wait and find out!"

Having said that, it is not so easy to check and sort out so many files and combine them with the actual situation.

Zhu Yunxi didn't say what he wanted these things for, so the two of them didn't dare to ask, as long as they followed orders.

At this time Qi Tai tentatively said: "Your Highness, several feudal lords have arrived in the capital recently, and I heard that they have come to beg to see you and have stayed behind closed doors..."

"I'm bathing and fasting during the recent holidays, so it's not appropriate to meet foreigners..."

Of course Zhu Yunxi would not say that it was because of being "punished" by Zhu Yuanzhang, the real reason can only be known by his uncles.

Qi Tai said worriedly: "Your Highness, it's also out of courtesy to always refuse to accept the audience of the vassal king. Besides, you haven't shown up all the time. If something happens to them..."

Zhu Yunxi raised a smile at the corner of his mouth and said, "Don't worry, I have my own opinion on when to show up. The person who should come hasn't come yet, what's the rush..."

These words made several people confused.

Who is the one to come?

Who is Your Highness waiting for?

It's really confusing.

Tie Xuan also said worriedly: "Your Highness, all the feudal lords are gathered in the capital now, saying that they are going to attend your canonization ceremony and congratulate the Crown Prince of Ming Dynasty, but so many feudal lords... It is always worrying..."

Zhu Yunxi smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? I am the grandson of the emperor now. I am the emperor and they are ministers. Even if they all come, they can only congratulate and salute obediently. Who dares to say anything?"

"Your Highness, don't blame your subordinates for talking too much..."

Tie Xuan said: "In the court, your highness is the king and they are ministers, but in the court, they are the princes of Ming Dynasty, your uncles, this..."

Zhu Yunxi said confidently: "Don't worry, I have my own countermeasures. If any of them want to put on airs, then I will tear down their platform!"

"Qu Tao, how are Sheng Yong, Geng Rui and the others preparing?!"

Qu Tao bowed and saluted and said: "Reporting to Your Highness, the guard battalion has been prepared, and it must be guaranteed to be safe. Please rest assured, Your Highness!"

Zhu Yunxi said vigorously: "The offensive and defensive momentum in ancient and modern times lies in strength! If the enemy is strong, we will take the defensive, and if we are strong, we will take the offensive. This is the eternal truth."

After looking at a few people, he ordered, "It's my grandfather's suggestion that all uncles can go back to the capital and let our family reunite. Since I dare to let them come, I will be able to deal with it. Besides, we have to meet sooner or later. Why not?" Let's meet up early."

He smiled gently and said: "You guys are thinking too much. Firstly, all uncles came to congratulate the emperor's grandpa's birthday, and secondly, they came to participate in my canonization ceremony. The family is in harmony and loves each other. This is the blessing of the common people. It is also the blessing of the community..."

"Since it's the Chinese New Year, you should also take a good rest at home and reunite with your family. Don't always think about the official duties of the court. Since Addition has set an example, you should also follow..."

"Yes! I respect His Highness's order!" Several people saluted and said.

However, the three of them looked at each other in blank dismay. The Tian family is harmonious?

In all dynasties, there is no such thing as royal harmony!
Which dynasty did not shed the blood of the same race?Which dynasty did not have a dog camp?
If it is really harmonious, then underestimate the attraction of the emperor's throne!

But of course a few people will not tell the truth, no matter what, the imperial court must maintain a glorious image in front of the people!

Zhu Yun doesn't care what they think among them!
At this time, His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun was looking at the sky outside the door. Although the roof of the palace blocked the view, it did not hinder Zhu Yunxi's gaze.

It seems that his eyes can see through many obstacles, see outside the palace, outside the imperial city, and even see the situation outside the entire Yingtian Mansion!
Zhu Yunxie's eyes became more and more concentrated...

King Yan, you are almost there!
