I want to be a grandson

Chapter 542 Zhu Yuanzhang's Interests
When Jin Yiwei brought her son-in-law Ouyang Lun to Princess Anqing's mansion with the news at this time, Princess Anqing still couldn't help but shed tears.

After 15 years of marriage, there is still some affection after all.

Jiang Yu could only say a few unnutritious words like "Princess's condolences" without pain, and then retreated.

He didn't see His Majesty, but Wang Zhong seemed to want Jin Yiwei to tell the princess that he didn't dare to wait, so he went to deliver the news himself.

The news that the son-in-law Ouyang Lun was ordered to die by the Supreme Emperor was also notified to the various feudal lords through the postmen of the imperial court...

At this time, in the study of King Yan's Mansion in Beiping, Zhu Di was discussing matters with Yao Guangxiao privately called "Lectures".

Yao Guangxiao twisted the Buddhist beads in his hand and said, "Your Highness, you know the news from the capital, right? Ouyang Lun, the son-in-law captain, minted silver coins privately, and the Jin Yiwei found out that the evidence is convincing."

Zhu Di nodded, "The king has heard about such a big thing, he must have suffered a lot when he was imprisoned by Jin Yiwei...

This Ouyang Lun is really daring!The imperial court issued repeated orders to prohibit anyone from minting silver coins privately, but he was lucky and turned a deaf ear to it! "

"Then what does His Highness think the emperor will do with him?"

Zhu Di was slightly stunned and said: "According to the law of the royal family, a family meeting should be held for this matter to be discussed by the clan mansion... But he is a son-in-law after all, so he should save his life."

Yao Guangxiao shook his head and said: "Your Highness, from the point of view of the poor monk, the emperor will not hand over Ouyang Lun to the clan mansion for the clan to decide. This matter involves silver coins. This is the first time for the new king to enthron. Dazheng,

Although the ban on the use of silver was not relaxed, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is the first reform of the new king's succession to the throne. It is not an exaggeration to say that the Supreme Emperor's decree has been changed...

Therefore, this matter can only succeed and never fail. Otherwise, if the wind of private casting really blows up, it will definitely arouse the anger of the sky and the people's resentment.

At that time, no matter whether it is the officials of Ming Dynasty or ordinary people, they will all feel that he has a shortcoming of filial piety, so this is not only a matter of private casting, but also a major event of the new king's reputation and prestige..."

To put it bluntly, this is a matter of winner and loser.

If the silver coins of the Ming Dynasty are popular in the world and are beneficial to the people's livelihood of the country, then naturally everyone will sing praises and applaud, and it will be called good governance!

But if it fails, it will be an evil government that harms the world, a tyranny fiercer than a tiger!
Especially if the government decree of the previous government is changed, it will be labeled as unfilial!

So this is the thing that wins the young model in the clubhouse, loses and goes to work in the sea, and the prestige is greatly reduced.

After listening to Yao Guangxiao's words, Zhu Di also frowned, "What does the master mean?"

"Ouyang Lun will definitely die!"

Zhu Di's eyebrows frowned even deeper, "In any case, Ouyang Lun is a relative of the emperor, so could it really kill him?"

"Ouyang Lun is not dead, and those royal relatives and honorable princes will follow everyone's example and start private minting! Your Highness, silver coins count six cents and six cents of silver, and the matching copper and platinum,

Even if artificial fire consumption is added, a silver coin is only worth seven renminbi, but the currency is worth one tael...so just minting coins can earn a huge profit of [-]%!
If it is private minting, the silver in the silver can be halved or even more. Your Highness, that is twice the profit... Is there any business in the world that is more profitable than private minting of silver coins? "

"When it really comes to that time, who else will obediently hand over the silver to the imperial court for the exchange of those wealthy and wealthy families?"

Zhu Di sighed, and said: "Your Majesty's minting Ming silver coins is a good thing, but if private minting prevails, it will be a disaster. How will ordinary people protect themselves..."

Yao Guangxiao continued: "Your Highness, even if it's to shock the mountain, to scare the chickens to scare the monkeys, so that others will be afraid and dare not cast it privately, Ouyang Lun must die! Otherwise, it will be difficult to end if someone casts it privately!"

Zhu Di nodded, "It seems that Ouyang Lun really deserves to die! It's a pity that Princess Anqing, alas,...The master means that he will order to kill without going through the clan's house or the clan's decision?"

Yao Guangxiao nodded and said, "If you hand it over to the clan, what will the clan do?"

Zhu Di wanted to say that he would propose to kill him, but when he thought about the different positions of the clan and the emperor, the interests were also different at this time, so naturally he was not sure.

After hesitating for a while, he had no choice but to say: "I'm afraid the meaning of the clan is also a small punishment and a big commandment, the board will not hit so hard..."

"Your Highness is right, so the emperor will not hand it over to the clan's mansion. It is not in line with his wishes, and it will offend some clan relatives. There is really no need to do anything extra."

Zhu Di shook his head, took another sip from his teacup, and said thoughtfully: "This is in line with my nephew's personality, our clan...he won't let us intervene."

"Your Highness, news from Beijing..."

At this time Zhu Neng walked into the study and handed a letter to Zhu Di.

Zhu Di opened it to watch, and couldn't help but smiled wryly: "Father really cares about his grandson with great care and consideration..."

Zhu Neng asked curiously: "What's wrong, Your Highness? What happened?"

Zhu Di handed the letter in his hand to Zhu Neng and said, "Let's show it to Master..."

Zhu Neng took the letter, his eyes wandered to the letter, and handed it to Yao Guangxiao, and then moved closer to him to read it,

Yao Guangxiao didn't take it seriously, he read it on his own, and after reading it, he handed the letter to Zhu Neng and said, "The Emperor Taishang did it like this, it's really impeccable, and people can't catch a little bit of talk!"

Indeed, if it was the son-in-law killed by a younger generation like Zhu Yunxi, there would naturally be a lot of room for fuss.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang's decree to grant death is a matter of course. It is righteousness to kill relatives, and no one can refute it.

Zhu Di felt like a bright mirror in his heart, and said: "The reason why the emperor gave such an order is probably because the new emperor must kill the son-in-law. The old man is protecting his grandson!"

A gleam of gloom flashed in Yao Guangxiao's eyes.

It was an opportunity to create public opinion at a critical moment, but it slipped away quietly like this...

Zhu Di said with emotion: "When my elder brother was the prince, the emperor was very strict with him. After all, he is the prince... Sometimes I think he is too kind and lacks thunderbolt methods.
But at that time, we all thought that the eldest brother was very good and took good care of us, but we didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Now this... is very similar to the father. He has a strategy, can implement good governance, and has thunderous tactics. I think the father is very satisfied. ..."

"Your Highness..."

Zhu Di waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, such an emperor can satisfy my father, and make his old man happy in his old age, it's like doing filial piety for our brothers..."

Zhu Neng also reported: "Your Highness, the imperial court ordered that all the royal relatives and relatives in the world be allowed to enter Beijing..."

Yao Guangxiao said: "Ouyang Lun was sentenced to death, and now letting the royal relatives enter Beijing should be a warning. After all, such a big incident has happened, if it is not used as a warning, it will not work."

Zhu Di nodded and said, "It's okay, after all, the death of Ouyang Lun will make others calm down, so as not to do anything out of the ordinary, then he will not be relentless!"

After saying this, there was silence in the study.

Zhu Yuanzhang is getting older, and he misses the past time and life more and more.

After becoming the Supreme Emperor, he no longer needs to care about state affairs, and has a lot of time to relax, so he often lets his former old man enter the palace and talk with him.

Sometimes he would go out of the palace for a walk, change into ordinary people's clothes, and let only a few guards follow him, and sometimes go north to Xuanwu Lake to pick lotus seeds and talk to the resting people,
When the interest came, he also helped the farmer to hoe the ground and had a great time chatting.

After taking off the emperor's coat, he lived a more carefree life, and lived a simple life like an ordinary old man.

Zhu Yunxi also knew all this, but he didn't stop him too much, the old man always had something to do, and he couldn't be free.

In fact, the emperor's life is not as serious as imagined, so lofty, the emperor is also a human being, people can pretend for a while, three to five years, but it is impossible to carry it all their lives.

What's more, everyone has become an emperor and has great power in his hands, so who will he show it to?
What's more, Zhu Yuanzhang abdicated and became the Supreme Emperor, so he lived more freely.

That morning, Zhu Yunxi had just woken up, and before he had time to wash up, he listened to the report from the maid, saying that the eunuch Qingtong, who was in charge of the seal of the supervisor of ceremonies, had been ordered by the emperor to see him.

Wearing loose clothes, Zhu Yunxi met Qing Tong, and after saluting, Qing Tong said: "Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor is leaving the palace today, let the servants ask if His Majesty is free today, and if you are free, I will accompany the Supreme Emperor..."

Zhu Yunxi blinked his eyes and asked, "Going out of the palace, the emperor asked me to accompany him out of the palace?"

"Yes, that's what the Supreme Emperor said..."

This is really rare!
Zhu Yunxi hasn't accompanied Zhu Yuanzhang out of the palace since he ascended the throne!
This is because I have just ascended the throne, and I need to devote more time and energy to political affairs, and secondly, it is too troublesome to leave the palace.

Even the people under the microservices who leave the palace have to do a lot of preparations, and what they see may not be useful, so Zhu Yunxi doesn't go out of the palace very much.

But since Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, it must have his meaning, so he said: "Go back and tell Grandpa Huang, I will go find him later..."

"Yes, the servant obeys!"

After bowing to accept the order, Qingtong said again: "The Supreme Emperor asked the servants to bring clothes, please change into your Majesty..."

Speaking of which, a little eunuch took two steps forward holding a tray, and there was a coarse cloth dress on it, which looked very worn out at first glance, and had long since lost its new look.

Zhu Yunxi couldn't believe his eyes, it was too old!
In the past, when I went out of the palace, although I would wear common people's clothes, the ones I wore were also made of silk and satin to look like a nobleman.

But this dress...

It's not that he dislikes it, it's that a person who is used to wearing brocade clothes and eating delicacies from mountains and seas, suddenly you let him eat chaff and swallowed vegetables, the psychological gap is too big...

After sending Qing Tong away, Empress Xu Miaojin came out from inside, looked at the clothes and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, all the courtiers and concubines have heard it. I don't know where to go when I leave the palace today?"

"I don't know, the emperor didn't say anything."

"Hehe, the Supreme Emperor is really thoughtful. He has prepared all the clothes for His Majesty! The concubine should wait for His Majesty to change clothes."

Lifting the dress from the tray on the table, who knew that there would be a patch about the width of two fingers when unfolded!

Xu Miaojin suppressed a smile, "Your Majesty, this dress is really suitable. The size and length are just right. Try it on, Your Majesty. It must not be a British capital..."

Suddenly, a black line appeared on Zhu Yunxie's head...

Looking at that dress, I can no longer arouse interest.

Well, I admit that I just hate it...

After Xu Miaojin changed it for him, Zhu Yunxi couldn't help touching his face when he looked at the rustic young man in the bronze mirror, alas, this is just a fool from an ordinary family, how can there be any image of an emperor!
It seems that people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, which is really good.

As soon as Zhu Yunxi came to the Dashan Hall, he saw that Zhu Yuanzhang, who was also in tattered clothes, was already waiting there, and there were several large baskets of dried vegetables beside him.

There are dried beans, dried cucumber roots, squeezed sesame leaves, pickled garlic, and a basket of eggplants, cucumbers, leeks, and pumpkins...

There are four big baskets and two shoulder poles.

Zhu Yuanzhang said with disgust: "Hurry up, dawdle, the market is open now, if it's too late, these things won't be sold out today!"

As he said that, he was about to pick up the basket that contained fresh vegetables such as eggplants, pumpkins, etc.

Seeing that the two of them were dressed the most "plainly", Zhu Yunxi knew that he would definitely not be able to run away today.

Well, Emperor Zhengde can let the palace ladies and eunuchs pretend to be vendors and buyers to experience the life of the market in the palace, so going out of the palace to sell things by himself is at least more real than his...

If it really wants to spread the word, it is also a private visit on Weibo to understand the people's sentiments, which is a commendable good thing!

It's not like playing around like Emperor Zhengde.

He hurried forward and grabbed the pole, "Grandpa Huang, these two baskets are relatively heavy, so you can pick the two baskets of dried vegetables."

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately cast him a scrutinizing look, "Are you okay?"

"Of course! Grandfather, just watch!" He put the pole on his shoulders, picked it up with all his strength, and gave Zhu Yuanzhang a confident look.

Man, can't say no!

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and smiled, turned around and picked up the two baskets of dried vegetables, and left the palace through the west gate of the palace.

When I came to the vegetable market, many vegetable farmers were already there. In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang was also a newcomer, so of course he would not compete with others for land.

So the two found a place, put down the baskets on their shoulders and started to organize and sell them.

The good place has been taken by others. There are not many people in this place, but it is still acceptable. There are other farmers selling vegetables nearby.

"Okay, we thought you couldn't pick us up, but we didn't expect you to be able to keep up with us, not bad..."

"Grandpa, are you praising me or yourself? Why doesn't your grandson feel the joy of being praised?"

Zhu Yunxi rubbed his sore shoulders. To be honest, if something that dances so heavily can keep up with Zhu Yuanzhang, his physical strength is already very good!

"Come on, drink some water to moisten your throat, and I will count on you to sell it later!" Zhu Yuanzhang handed him the water bottle.
