I want to be a grandson

Chapter 514 The anger at the bottom!
"Grandpa, how do you plan to arrange the marriage of my sister, Princess Jiangdu?"

After accompanying Zhu Yuanzhang to weed for a while, he persuaded him to rest for a while, and was sitting on a chair drinking tea, Zhu Yunxi asked.

"You are the emperor, and this girl Yiwei is your own sister, so naturally you have to pay more attention and ask us what we are doing."

Zhu Yunxi took the teapot from Qingtong's hand and poured him a cup, "Grandpa Huang, you are the elder of our family, and the elders are the masters of the children and grandchildren's marriage. I am a younger brother, how can I be the elder sister's master... "

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "Didn't you say that you promised to find her a satisfactory husband before? You have to ask her about this. Seeing that she has taken a fancy to the son of that family, just make him a son-in-law."

"Grandpa, my sister was just a princess before, but she is now the eldest princess of Daming, and her status is naturally far superior to before. There are some things that should be considered... What do you think?"

There is a big difference in status between a princess and a princess!

There are many princesses in Ming Dynasty, but there is only one eldest princess. The close relationship with the emperor directly determines the status of the son-in-law!
The ancient aristocratic families paid attention to marriage, and the emperor and courtiers did not need marriage as a bond.

When Zhu Yiwei was the princess, perhaps the value of "use" was not great, but the eldest princess was different...

Zhu Yuanzhang gave him a hard look, almost turning the whites of his eyes out, and said angrily: "You don't need to find out what we mean, why haven't you seen you so cunning before?

Our old Zhu's family sits in the mountains and rivers, so why let the women sacrifice, what should be, you don't have to think too much about our ideas,

Remember, you are the emperor!Always want to know what we mean! "

"Aren't I afraid that Grandpa Huang will be unhappy..."

"There's a lot of nonsense, I'll believe you! If you have nothing to do, hurry up and leave, don't delay us growing vegetables!"

"Yes, yes, grandson obeys orders, grandpa don't bother..."

After leaving the Dashan Hall, Zhu Yunxi also breathed a sigh of relief.

Regarding Zhu Yiwei's marriage, he certainly hoped that his elder sister could choose a son-in-law according to her own wishes and preferences.

As the emperor himself, if he hasn't given his sister the right to "freedom", then what the emperor has done is too useless!

But I have to say that the status of the eldest princess is indeed very high. "Book of the Later Han Dynasty Empress Ji" contains: In the Han Dynasty, the emperor's daughters were all named county princesses, and their ceremonial clothes were the same as those of the princes.Its admirer is the plus-size princess, who wears the same ceremonial clothes as the king of Fan.

Cai Yong at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty commented on "Historical Records Xiaowu Benji", saying that "the emperor's daughter is called the princess, and Yibi Liehou. The sister is called the eldest princess, and Yibi is the king of princes."

With a high status, some things are not for her to do as she wants, and with the presence of elders, it is also a basic respect to ask.

As long as Zhu Yuanzhang has no opinion...

Back in Jinshen Hall, Zhu Zhuyunxi did not immediately tell the eldest princess the good news,

Instead, he sat on a chair, looked at the memorials and records about Daming's finances in front of him, and couldn't help but fell into thought.

Since Daming silver coins are to be used, it is inevitable for the common people to exchange the scattered silver in their hands for silver coins. This is necessary, otherwise Daming really does not have so much silver as currency.

However, how to restrict the powerful family from realizing the silver in their hands?How to limit the further expansion of wealth and power in their hands?
Minting silver coins is certainly beneficial to Daming, but it is also beneficial to those powerful families!

I can't stop them from cashing out the money in their hands, but I have to find a way to reduce the benefits to them!

"Li Fu, let the Secretary of General Administration draw up a report immediately to spread the news of Ming's minting silver coins to the world! Tell the people all over the world that the silver in their hands will be exchanged for silver coins in a short time!
Let them cover the money bags so that they won't be snatched away..."

"Yes, servant girl, this is the order."

In any era, the rich and powerful families are the first to know the news of the court, so that they can use the information in their hands to earn a lot of money,

The same is true for the minting of silver coins. It won't take long for them to know about the opening of the imperial court to mint coins.

Then they will use this news to buy silver among the people!
In this way, because the common people don't know the situation, seeing that the silver in their hands can be sold and exchanged for money, how can they still hold it in their hands!
But if this is the case, those wealthy and influential families can put all the money of the people into their pockets, and they can still eat their mouths full of fat in the end!
So Zhu Yunxi must remind the people.

This is also the way to curb the big gentry.

"Qu Tao!"

"The last general is here, Your Majesty please order!" Jiang Yu bowed and saluted.

Zhu Yunxi squinted his eyes and said: "Tell the soldiers below about the fact that Daming intends to mint silver coins. How should I say... Do you understand?"

Zhang Fu stood aside in a daze, not knowing what was going on, what did His Majesty mean by these words?
What does minting silver coins have to do with soldiers?
Your Majesty's words... I don't understand...

He couldn't figure it out, but Qu Tao understood it very well!
"The general understands, please rest assured, Your Majesty!"

"Well, let's go!"

"Yes, I will retire at the end..."

Zhang Fu looked at Zhu Yunxi, then at Qu Tao who was going away, and couldn't help scratching his head. What did he understand?

This riddle is played...

Zhu Yunxi stood up, his thoughts became clearer, and his mood improved a lot.

The more unfavorable it is to the rich and powerful, the happier he is!
"Jiang Yu, send someone to the Baoyuan Bureau to watch over Qian Fan and other things. No one is allowed to make rubbings, and no one is allowed to draw pictures and carry them. If there are suspicious people, take them down immediately!"

Qianfan mother coin is equivalent to the electric board for printing banknotes. With it, you can easily mint exactly the same silver coins. Be sure to keep an eye on it!
"Remember, not even a single silver coin can be lost. Anyone who dares to enrich himself will be severely punished!"

The Commander of Jin Yiwei Jiang Yu bowed and said: "I understand that I will never dare to slack off, please rest assured, Your Majesty!"

"Um……"

Zhu Yunxi nodded and said to Wang Zhong who was standing aside: "Wang Zhong, you also send someone to watch over to make sure everything is safe!"

"Yes! The servant obeys!"

Jiang Yu raised his head to look at Wang Zhong, just as Wang Zhong was also looking at him, his eyes met, and there was a bit of guard in his eyes,

But then both of them put on smiling faces, how about a happy and harmonious look.

Although Jiang Yu didn't show it on his face, he was secretly trembling in his heart.

His Majesty dispatched Jin Yiwei and eunuchs from the palace...

This is a danger signal!

If Jin Yiwei has any mistakes in doing things, then these dead eunuchs will report it immediately!
If His Majesty is offended, not only will he be punished for his ineffectiveness, but the status of the entire Jinyiwei will also be hit...

Your Majesty is absolutely fine, and raise another eagle dog...

From then on, Jin Yiwei is not the only one of His Majesty's ears, eyes and dogs!

It seems that I have to rectify the Jinyiwei, so as to avoid being superfluous and not paying attention.

Are these eunuchs monitoring and controlling Jin Yiwei...

And Wang Zhong also clenched his fist secretly, this is an opportunity, here must be seized!

If he can take the credit from Jin Yiwei, hehe...

Regarding Jiang Yu's expression, Zhu Yunxi naturally knew that anyone who was put a hand on his own territory would be vigilant.

And the small calculation in Wang Zhong's heart is even more human, and it would be the same for him.

It is good to have competition, which is exactly what I want to see.

In the Baoyuan Bureau, the eunuchs in the palace and Jin Yiwei looked at each other as if they were competing with each other, and believed that there should be no problem.

The rest is up to Qu Tao.

Barracks, barracks.

A soldier was lying on a bench, writing a letter with a bald brush.

This soldier had studied social studies, and although he didn't have much literacy, he could barely write a family letter with a few words and a few "code names", which was still enough.

"Hey, what is Lao Huang writing, show me..."

"Doesn't Lao Huang like to dip in water to write on the ground? Why is he willing to use paper this time? It's really rare..."

"Hehehe, is it possible that Lao Huang is doing good to that old friend... Hehehe, can't you hold back?"

When several soldiers entered the barracks, they laughed at him when they saw him writing.

"Go, go, go! I don't have time to talk to you guys! Don't interrupt if it's an urgent matter, I have to think about how to write the word "silver"...Hey, who of you can write..."

Old Huang thought about it and scratched his scalp anxiously, but he still couldn't think of it, so he had to ask others.

"Which word did you say?" A soldier in his thirties asked.

Lao Huang was a little hesitant. He didn't want to say it at first, but because he really couldn't remember it and was afraid of delaying the business, he had no choice but to tell the truth.
"It's silver, the silver of silver... I can't remember, I learned it before..."

A soldier on the side jokingly said: "Hey, Lao Huang wants to make his lover happy and take out silver to make jewelry? Lao Huang, do you want to make hairpins or bracelets..."

"Oh, it's written like this..." The soldier took the initiative to teach him the word.

Lao Huang copied this word into his letter, and then he showed a comfortable smile and folded the letter.

Because the soldier was relatively close to him, he glanced at the letter and asked in amazement: "Old Huang, why did you ask the family to hand over the savings to someone else? Is this person reliable? What's going on? Could it be that the family ..."

Hearing the words, several soldiers also came over one after another, fearing that something might happen to his family, they all asked with concern.

Faced with such concern, Lao Huang didn't feel that it was impossible. Besides, these brothers were all his brothers in the same robe, they were soldiers training and fighting together, and their feelings were very deep.

So I didn’t hide it from them, I dragged them inside, and said in a low voice: “Brothers, I don’t hide it from you, my cousin works in the Baoyuan Bureau of the Ministry of Industry,

He said that the imperial court is now minting silver coins, which are very exquisite, and the imperial court sent Jin Yiwei and eunuchs in the palace to guard them in turn..."

"Silver coins? Silver? Didn't our Daming prohibit the use of silver? What's going on?"

"That's right, the imperial court has banned silver for many years, is it necessary to open the silver ban?"

Lao Huang looked at the door, but there was no one else, so he carefully explained: "Brothers, the silver ban has not been loosened, but the imperial court allows the exchange of scattered silver for the minted silver coins!"

"Oh! This is a good thing! I still have a few taels in my house, but they have been useless, so I put them on the beam..."

"Hey, my family has them too, but they've all been beaten into bracelets by prodigal wives..."

Lao Huang gave them a white look, "What are you thinking! Do you think anyone can exchange it? It's a beautiful idea!

I just wrote a letter to my family to ask my brother to give the silver to a distant relative and ask him to exchange it.
They are civil servants... only civil servants are eligible to exchange! "

Immediately, a bucket of cold water was poured down, and the originally high interest instantly became very distorted!

"Isn't it to be exchanged? Why can't we exchange it? Civil servants, are civil servants superior to others!"

"Yeah, this is too unfair! Why can't we exchange money even if we have money in our hands! Their civil servants have more heads than us? Why don't they rely on the Lord to protect them on the battlefield!"

Originally, civil and military are opposed to each other, and as low-level soldiers, they can't get into the eyes of those high-ranking, self-proclaimed officials and lords.
In the past, it was just a matter of being angry, but now it is about everyone's vital interests!
So everyone's words contained three points of anger and three points of injustice!
Lao Huang hurriedly said anxiously: "Brothers, keep your voice down! If this is heard by others, it will be fine! To tell you the truth, His Majesty originally thought that our Beijing camp had meritorious service in defending the capital.
There are also those brothers on the border, who also made meritorious deeds against the enemy, and they planned to give us silver coins as a monthly rule, but those civil officials disagreed, clamoring to give them to the civil officials first, and to the scholars all over the world...

"Tnd! Isn't this fart! What credit do those bullshit scholars have, why give them!"

"That's right! In terms of credit, who has more credit than us serving as soldiers and fighting! Those scholars don't even dare to kill a chicken, what a fool!"

"No, if they are only allowed to exchange, then the money in our hands will definitely be suppressed by them desperately, and they will be cheap for nothing!"

"This group of moths are really tnd rascals! Did His Majesty agree?"

"I don't know about that, but everyone knows that civil servants can speak well..."

Everyone understands that there is really such a possibility, and the probability is very high.

They all know that if the civil servants are allowed to talk, they can only loose the money to the scholars and let them make a fortune...

This is to take food from his own mouth!
So everyone's mood is very depressed, and the atmosphere is very depressing.

"Dong dong dong... dong dong dong..."

A burst of military drums sounded, pulling back everyone's thoughts, but everyone frowned, because they didn't make any moves.

The soldier in his thirties sighed and said, "Brothers, the drill drum is ringing, let's go to practice first, military discipline must not be violated..."

Everyone had no choice but to pick up the weapons on the side and go out.

On the school field, Ma Chao practiced in pairs, but they lost the energy of the past, and each of them became listless, and even looked sad...

"Cheer up! Wait a minute, what's wrong with TND? This is it! I got chicken plague or hit a ghost in broad daylight! Where's your strength? What about your murderous spirit? It's all thrown to grandma's house?!"

"Team one, what are you doing! It's not even dinner time yet! Please cheer me up, if anyone is perfunctory, be careful with the military law!"

Seeing this situation, the captain who led the army didn't understand what was going on, so he shouted and scolded again and again, telling everyone to cheer up and practice hard.

But such words are like sinking into the sea, it is of no use at all, and it does not cause the slightest wave...

Several school lieutenants exchanged glances with each other, they all understood that soldiers would not behave like this for no reason.

So after disbanding the team, they quickly found someone in the barracks who was familiar with the news of the soldiers to inquire about the situation.

But the news they found made them very angry!
