Daming: Let you do your best to manage, do you go to health?

Chapter 85 With such a little money, it makes you happy. 【Ask for a monthly ticket】

And Zhu Zhanji, who just ran out of Fengtian Temple, bumped into a person head-on.

"Stinky boy, why are you panicking?"

Zhu Zhanji looked up.

It was his father, Zhu Gaochi.

His father Zhu Gaochi frowned and asked, "I heard that your grandfather is making trouble again? What's going on?"

Hearing this, Zhu Zhanji, who was afraid of being caught by the old man, would not have the time to talk nonsense with the old man, so he hurriedly said: "There is nothing wrong, the old man is playing with the second and third uncles there, and I just talked about you. I owe you too much, and I am exhausted, so go in and have a look."

Hearing Zhu Zhanji's words, his father Zhu Gaochi smiled and said, "Your grandfather really said that?"

"That's right, my son Jin Yiwei still has something to do, so let's go first, father, go quickly."

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly left.

Looking at the back of Zhu Zhanji leaving, Zhu Gaochi muttered happily: "It's not easy to say this from the old man's mouth."

With that said, he walked towards the gate of Fengtian Temple.

But the fat leg took a step, and Zhu Gaochi immediately saw the old man beside the dragon chair holding a sword in his forehand to reprimand King Han and King Zhao.

The smile on his face disappeared in an instant, and before the foot touched the ground, he hurriedly took it back.

But in such a short time of less than three seconds, he was still spotted by the old man on the dragon platform.

"Boss!"

"come over!"

Just after lifting half of his legs, Zhu Gaochi fell down again.

Squeezing out a smile that was uglier than crying, he walked towards the old man step by step.

While walking, he was still cursing his little bastard in his heart.

She has no conscience at all, even cheating on her own father.

At the same time, he secretly scolded himself for worrying about nothing, the two of them just lifted the roof of Fengtian Temple, so they didn't care about his business.

When he came to the front, he didn't wait for Zhu Gaochi to say anything.

The old man shouted sharply: "Kneel down!"

Hearing this, Zhu Gaochi knelt down in fright.

But when he raised his head, he realized that the old man was scolding his two younger brothers.

Seeing Zhu Gaochi kneeling down, the old man frowned and said, "I didn't ask you to kneel, why are you kneeling?"

Wen Yan was thinking about it, but after thinking about it, he still didn't get up: "Father, I'd better kneel."

Obviously, according to past experience, there is nothing wrong with kneeling, and it will save you a while to get up and kneel again, tossing.

"On the court just now, what are your uncles and nephews muttering quietly there? Doing business? Is this Fengtian Temple a place for your uncles and nephews to do business?" The old man was half-dead by Zhu Zhanji. Ran.

Now I can only vent my anger on these two brothers.

And Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui, two brothers who had no background, were reprimanded, and they were also confused for a while.

"Okay, okay! I served him as the supervisor of the country for two days, and now I have learned to talk back in the court, and I have also learned to behead, and I have to beheaded all over the house, okay, okay! You are indeed a member of my Zhu family. He opened his mouth and beheaded."

"Hurrah!"

Seeing that the old man was still angry because the eldest nephew refused to listen to the old man's words and insisted on beheading in the court hall, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui felt extremely wronged.

Your eldest grandson will be beheaded for disobedience, why are you angry with us?

But I dare to whisper these words in my heart.

And the old man vented a few words, but he couldn't find the culprit, so he couldn't really vent his anger.

He looked around and saw Zhu Gaochi who was kneeling on the ground without saying a word. He immediately put one hand on his waist, pointed at Zhu Gaochi with the other, and cursed: "Look at your good son, talk back in front of the hall, and then let him go!" He has been working for two days, old man, do I have to stand by this dragon chair and serve him!"

Zhu Gaochi who heard this was even more wronged.

Didn't you say before that fortunately you didn't leave it to me to teach, so you took it with you and taught it yourself?
Now he is my good son again?

Zhu Gaochi, who didn't even know what happened from the beginning to the end, was scolded by the old man when he first arrived.

In my heart, I was just like the old man, cursing that little bastard son.

"There are also you three bastards, none of you can make me worry! Get out! Get out of here!"

The old man threw the sword in his hand to the ground.

Seeing the three brothers leave, the old man scolded angrily: "I told you to win over the ministers. If you don't win over, it's fine, and I'll behead you. You bastard."

While cursing, the old man was secretly thinking of ways to deal with this kid.

Walking out of the gate of Fengtian Palace, the two brothers Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui immediately looked at the eldest brother Zhu Gaochi beside him and said, "Boss, look at your good son, he pissed off the old man, let us suffer, what is this?"

Hearing this, Zhu Gaochi said immediately: "The old man also said that Zhu Zhanji was taught by his side, why don't you call the old man?"

But Zhu Gaoxu said: "Don't tell us these things, that's your son, not my son. If this is my son, I'll break his leg. Or boss, you adopt this kid to my younger brother, I will help you You clean up."

Zhu Gaosui also echoed from the side: "Yes, boss, you should also think about it. If it doesn't work, ask someone to tie him up and beat him up, so that this kid will have a long memory."

Hearing the sarcastic remarks of the two brothers, Zhu Gaochi immediately scolded: "Go away, I think the old man is right, you two brothers just need to clean up. I will adopt you, I don't know what virtue your second child is, adopt Here it is, you call him dad, or he calls you dad."

"."

Just when the three brothers were bickering with each other.

Zhu Zhanji, who ran away early, came to Shangshufang.

Looking from a distance, he saw his future concubine, Hu Shanxiang, at a glance.

Although I still greeted the old man when I was in the villa in the suburbs of Beijing before, and confessed that I wanted to marry Hu Shanxiang, the old man also said that he would not be able to marry until he was officially canonized as the grandson.

So now Hu Shanxiang still can't live in the Prince's Mansion.

It's nothing else, and it has nothing to do with the so-called etiquette. In the final analysis, it is for Hu Shanxiang's consideration.

Living in the Prince's Mansion before getting started, it is easy to lose people's tongues, after all, ancient women still regarded chastity as extremely important.

It doesn't matter if he lives for a day or two on weekdays, but his grandson doesn't know when he will be officially canonized, so he can only keep her in the palace for the time being, and live with the female official Hu Shangyi.

However, most people in the palace know what Hu Shanxiang's future status will be, and no one will really dare to embarrass her, or send her to serve others.

Now in the palace, Zhu Zhanji's grandmother, the queen, has passed away. After the establishment of a new one, Zhu Zhanji's mother has the final say on all the women in the palace, and all the female officials in the palace have to come to ask her for instructions.

In this case, offending Hu Shanxiang, the future daughter-in-law of the Crown Princess, would be like courting death.And Hu Shanxiang lives in the palace now, which is no different from living in his own home.

Of course, in name, Zhu Zhanji also arranged for her to only be responsible for her own affairs.

"Shanxiang!"

As Zhu Zhanji yelled from a distance, Hu Shanxiang and the maids who were whispering around turned their heads one after another, and when they saw that it was Zhu Zhanji, they all ran away as if they had seen a ghost.

He didn't even have time to say hello to Hu Shanxiang.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Zhanji walked up slowly.

When he was about to say something, he found that Hu Shanxiang ignored him at all, and walked to the side with his lips pouted.

Zhu Zhanji was taken aback: "What's the matter? Why are you still angry?"

Zhu Zhanji, who took a step forward and grabbed Hu Shanxiang's arm, stretched out his hand and pinched Hu Shanxiang's face: "What's the matter, who made you angry again."

Hearing that Zhu Zhanji even asked who made her angry, she puffed her cheeks, stared straight at Zhu Zhanji and said, "Don't you know how many days you haven't seen me?"

Hearing this, Zhu Zhanji suddenly realized.

He hurriedly explained with a smile: "Recently, there are a lot of things in the imperial court. It's a mess. I don't even have the time to come to the Shang's study a few times. Why, someone fell in love?"

Hearing this, Hu Shanxiang's face turned red instantly, and he drooped his head and said, "Who is falling in love?"

It's just that the more he said this, the more he lacked confidence, and the lower his voice became.

Seeing Hu Shanxiang as a cute little woman, Zhu Zhanji immediately rubbed her head and said, "Okay, then, how about you follow my ass every day from now on? Don't be in Shangshufang either." , Wherever I go in the future, you will go, how about it?"

Hearing this, although Hu Shanxiang looked happy, he still said stubbornly: "Who is going to follow your ass?"

Seeing that the little girl Hu Shanxiang was in a better mood, Zhu Zhanji asked curiously: "By the way, those palace girls who surrounded you just now ran away when they saw me? Seeing me on weekdays I've never seen them like this."

Along the way, Zhu Zhanji has always been a little puzzled.

On weekdays, his reputation in the palace is not bad, and the daughters of the eunuch palace will greet him warmly when they see her.

Although he still abides by etiquette, he has never seen expressions of fear on the faces of these people.

On the contrary, there are still many good-looking court ladies who take the initiative to join him.

Moreover, although I am the eldest grandson, I have never punished anyone with a low status. After all, I am a person who traveled through later generations. Even though many things and thinking about things are trying to integrate into this era, many habits and nature It still cannot be changed.

At least the quality of his previous life would not allow him to lose his temper or punish those eunuchs, maids and guards.

Even if he accidentally did something wrong in front of himself, it never happened.

But today is strange.

Along the way, I looked at the fellow travelers from a distance, and avoided them one after another.

Either turn the corner, or turn around altogether.

In addition, as the people around Hu Shanxiang, those court ladies just now should not be afraid of themselves, but they can't avoid them all.

Hearing Zhu Zhanji's question, Hu Shanxiang snorted, and then said: "It's not because of your affairs in Fengtian Temple."

Zhu Zhanji was taken aback: "Fengtian Temple? What have I done in Fengtian Temple?"

Seeing that Zhu Zhanji still looked puzzled, Hu Shanxiang immediately pursed his lips and muttered, "I don't know what I did."

But after muttering, he explained to Zhu Zhanji carefully: "They all heard that you were going to behead those who sued you when you were in Fengtian Temple (those who didn't vote for the monthly ticket were purged. ), and even some of them want to copy and kill and implicate the nine clans, so they are too scared to approach you, afraid that if you are not happy, they will also chop off their heads."

"You were still talking about it to me just now."

Knowing that it was because of this incident, Zhu Zhanji was suddenly speechless.

Although it didn't affect him, it was a bit wronged.

I was just trying to sell my mouth, and I didn't really cut it off. I didn't expect there to be such a place.

However, the news of these palace daughters and eunuchs is very well-informed.

How much effort did this take, I am afraid that the Beijing officials outside don't know about it, so it spread in the palace?
"Then you have to make it clear to your little sisters in the palace, otherwise I will become a murderer in their mouths."

Hu Shanxiang pouted when he heard the words: "I don't care about you."

"You don't care. If some court lady and eunuch treats me as a tyrant and faint king, and secretly poisons me, you little girl will never have a husband, and you will be alone in the vacant room."

Regarding the first half of Zhu Zhanji's sentence, Hu Shanxiang pretended not to listen at all, and only said: "What kind of husband, why stay alone in an empty room, I haven't married you yet, don't talk nonsense."

The blushing little face looks so cute, I can't wait to take a bite.

Just when Zhu Zhanji and Hu Shanxiang were amused.

Huang Yan, who saw Zhu Zhanji's figure in the distance, walked over quickly.

When he came close, he immediately bowed to Zhu Zhanji and said, "The minister has seen His Royal Highness the eldest grandson."

Zhu Zhanji, who was chatting with Hu Shanxiang with a smile, turned around immediately when he heard the voice behind him. Seeing that it was Huang Yan, he smiled and said, "It's Mr. Huang, what's the matter?"

Hearing this, Huang Yan nodded, but before speaking, he still glanced at Hu Shanxiang next to Zhu Zhanji.

Zhu Zhanji couldn't understand Huang Yan's meaning, so he said casually: "It's okay, this is the future eldest grandson concubine, just tell me what you want."

Seeing Zhu Zhanji directly revealing Hu Shanxiang's future identity in front of him, the astute Huang Yan instantly understood Hu Shanxiang's position in the heart of Zhu Zhanji, the eldest grandson.

The matter of Concubine Changsun is not a joke.

Now it is the eldest grandson concubine, and when it is canonized, it will be the grandson concubine. After the crown prince ascends the throne, he will be the crown prince concubine, and after that he will be the queen, the mother of a country.

Although the emperor of the Ming Dynasty didn't care about the woman's origin since the time of the Taizu, but he showed his identity so bluntly before getting married, which shows that in the eyes of the eldest grandson, this woman is by no means ordinary.

Huang Yan, who knows people's hearts, immediately showed a surprised expression, and then saluted Hu Shanxiang respectfully beside Zhu Zhanji, and said: "I don't know the identity of the eldest grandson concubine, but I am contemptuous. I hope the eldest grandson concubine will forgive me." crime."

Hearing Huang Yan's words of begging for mercy, he looked at this eunuch who used to be one of the best in the palace, the supervisor of etiquette, and the eunuch, saluting himself respectfully.

Hu Shanxiang, a little girl, had never seen such a battle before, she was a little flustered and lost her sense of control.

The dancer didn't know what to do, but looked at Zhu Zhanji beside him as if asking for help.

Seeing Hu Shanxiang's flustered appearance, Zhu Zhanji smiled immediately, and then said to Huang Yan: "Eunuch Huang, don't be polite, get up, she hasn't been officially canonized yet, it's reasonable for you not to know .Also, as long as you know the identity of the eldest grandson concubine, you don't need to call it that in front of outsiders, otherwise my grandpa will reprimand me after hearing it."

Hearing Zhu Zhanji's instructions, Huang Yan respectfully complied.

Then he asked again: "Your Highness, the minister came here this time to ask His Highness for instructions."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"Those people that His Highness ordered his ministers to arrest before, they are still locked in the big prison, but many of these people have extraordinary identities, and they can't be locked up forever. There must be an explanation. Like that Whether Liu Boyuan, the prefect of Hangzhou, was arrested, whether he was to be killed or released, he had to give an explanation to the Ministry of Punishment, otherwise the position of the prefect of Hangzhou would not be easy for them to rearrange."

Listening to Huang Yan's words, Zhu Zhanji nodded slowly. This matter really needs to be decided earlier.

Otherwise, it's not a problem to lock people up all the time.

At the very least, what crime should be charged, and what crime should be assigned, so that it can be dealt with everywhere, depending on whether to re-dispatch or wait.

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanji frowned and asked, "How many people were arrested this time?"

Huang Yan replied: "A total of 49 and [-] people have been arrested this time, all of whom are directly related to Ji Gang. As for those who are related, they have not been moved yet."

Zhu Zhanji was silent for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he asked, "How many people are directly involved in leaking the national policy?"

"49 people, including Liu Boyuan, the prefect of Hangzhou."

After hearing this, Zhu Zhanji did not hesitate, and said directly: "These people were all pulled outside the Meridian Gate to be executed. There is no need to keep it secret, and they will be executed publicly."

Huang Yan was not too surprised by Zhu Zhanji's decision.

Having been by Zhu Di's side for so many years as the owner of Dongchang Factory, he can still stand up to such a trivial matter, but he still asked with some hesitation: "Where is Liu Boyuan, the prefect of Hangzhou? This person has been a little bit since he took the imperial examination. With their abilities and their different identities, shouldn’t it be time to ask the imperial court what it means?”

However, Zhu Zhanji did not hesitate at all, and said: "A person who leaks the national policy and puts the court in nothing must not live, no matter what his identity is. As for the court, there is no need to ask. My Highness is still in charge of supervising the country. , The Lord still does this, I will personally inform the Sixth Ministry of the Cabinet.”

Seeing what Zhu Zhanji said, Huang Yan naturally had no objections.

However, when Hu Shanxiang on the side heard that Zhu Zhanji was about to chop off dozens of people's heads casually, his red face suddenly turned pale.

Thinking about what those palace daughters said in front of her just now, if she hadn't been with Zhu Zhanji for a long time, she might have regarded him as some kind of murderous tyrant.

After all, there were dozens of people.

The line up is also very long.

But Zhu Zhanji and Huang Yan, who were discussing serious matters at this time, did not notice the change in Hu Shanxiang's face.

"Your Highness, the family members of these people."

As Huang Yan, the owner of Dongchang, human life is worthless in his eyes, and it is nothing more than numbers and words.

And Dongchang has always cut the grass and roots, and now that these people are going to be cut down to avoid future troubles, he has always wanted to deal with it.

Whether it's exile or selling the women's family into a brothel, at the very least, it is necessary to think about where these people will go in the future, so as to prevent them from making trouble out of nowhere.

However, after hearing Huang Yan's words, Zhu Zhanji couldn't help feeling a little overwhelmed.

Although he doesn't know where the phrase "wives and children are not as good as a disaster" came from and when it entered his mind, it has obviously been integrated into his values ​​in later life.

Although he still understood some of the cruelty of the feudal dynasty, this kind of instinctive disgust still made him somewhat unable to do so.

"Since the culprit has been eliminated, the family members of these people don't need to be implicated. However, in a short period of time, we should send someone to watch them. If there is any action that is not good or bad, we will take it down together."

"The minister takes orders." Huang Yan replied with a bow.

"What about the rest?"

"They all have more or less interests with Ji Gang, and there are not a few of them who are doing little things, cheating and cheating the common people."

Hearing this, Zhu Zhanji immediately said: "Hand over people to Jinyiwei, and they will search their homes. If there are many evildoers, they can be dealt with according to the law of the Ming Dynasty. But if it is just a normal exchange of interests and does not violate the laws of the country, only the criminals will be imprisoned." First of all, don’t be implicated in the same way. If there are innocent women, old and young in the family who ransacked the house, they will be given a small amount of money and dismissed according to the actual number of the ransacked house.”

"Yes! Then the minister withdrew from the arrangement."

"Ah."

As Huang Yan left, Zhu Zhanji groaned on the spot for a moment, making sure that there was nothing missing or negligent, and then turned his head to look at Hu Shanxiang beside him.

Looking at her pale little face, after thinking about it, she understood what was going on, and said with a smile, "Why, I'm so scared."

Hu Shanxiang nodded: "With one sentence, dozens of people's heads were beheaded, so you can't be scared. And that Eunuch Huang, you don't know what he looked like in the past. If you put on a face, no one in the palace is not afraid."

Having said that, Hu Shanxiang sighed.

As if thinking of something again, he blamed Zhu Zhanji: "Also, what did you say to that Eunuch Huang just now, what about the eldest grandson concubine? Walk around. And that Eunuch Huang, just come here, that big gift scared me to death."

Hearing these words, Zhu Zhanji said with a smile: "Do you think that Huang Yan really doesn't know your identity? Not to mention Huang Yan who is in charge of the East Factory, I'm afraid there are few people in the whole palace who don't know about this. He just asked that on purpose just now, just to hear what I mean, and he will know how to treat you when he sees you in the future."

It was the first time that Hu Shanxiang heard Zhu Zhanji's words, and he stared in surprise: "He knows?"

Zhu Zhanji smiled and shook his head: "You really treat your title as the future eldest grandson concubine as a bargain on the street."

Listening to Zhu Zhanji's words, Hu Shanxiang also murmured in his heart.

"I'm already so good. It seems that I can't talk nonsense with them in the future."

Seeing Hu Shanxiang's serious appearance, Zhu Zhanji was amused to laugh again.

Ministry of Accounts.

Zhu Zhanji walked in front, and Hu Shanxiang followed behind.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw that the household secretary Xia Yuanji had a smug smile on his face.

"Lord Xia!"

"Why are you so happy?"

Hearing Zhu Zhanji's voice, Xia Yuanji turned his head to look.

Seeing that it was Zhu Zhanji, the smile on his face became even wider.

He took a booklet in his hand, walked quickly to Zhu Zhanji, and then handed the booklet in Zhu Zhanji's hands. Although he tried hard to restrain himself, he said excitedly: "His Royal Highness, look at it!" , It’s just the accounts compiled overnight by the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs. The specific plan for the distribution of the tenements into the mu and the return of the fire consumption to the public has already come out.”

Hearing Xia Yuanji's words, Zhu Zhanji became a little curious.

Of course, what is curious is not that the property goes into the mu and the fire consumption is returned to the public, but that if this method is calculated, then he, Xia Yuanji, wouldn't be so happy, right?

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanji opened the notebook and read it.

But after flipping through a few pages, he couldn't find anything that made Xia Yuanji so happy.

Can't help asking curiously: "If you figure it out, let's count it out. Why is Master Xia so happy?"

Hearing this, Xia Yuanji tried hard to restrain the smile on his face, but still couldn't do it: "Is Weichen so obvious?"

Xia Yuanji's answer to Zhu Zhanji was really unexpected.

"What do you think?"

Facing Zhu Zhanji's question, Xia Yuanji didn't answer, took the notebook directly from Zhu Zhanji's hand, turned to the last page, and said happily: "Your Highness, do you know that only fire Returning to the public, how much money can the imperial court collect in a year?"

"More than three hundred and sixty thousand taels!"

Without waiting for Zhu Zhanji to say anything, Xia Yuanji continued to exaggerate: "This is one-tenth of the tax paid by the imperial court in previous years!"

Looking at Xia Yuanji who seemed to have made a huge fortune, Zhu Zhanji shook his head helplessly.

"I think you have some big happy event, that's all."

What Zhu Zhanji said made Xia Yuanji immediately unhappy: "Your Highness, this is one-tenth of the tax. I don't know how many important things we have to do. If we could have this one-tenth of the tax, the imperial court And why do you still use precious banknotes and spices to make up the money when distributing salaries to officials?"

However, no matter how Xia Yuanji explained and argued, Zhu Zhanji still didn't take it seriously.

More than three hundred and sixty thousand taels.
Any big event that can be done is enough for his eldest grandson to hold a big wedding. Although his big wedding in history did not cost more than 700,000 million taels, it still cost a full 270 million taels. not big. (Here is the data from Daming Fenghuazhong, which cost 280 million silver, and the actual historical wedding cost 280 million shi grains and [-] million pieces of silk yarn)

On the contrary, this Xia Yuanji was holding a cornucopia in his hands, but he regarded it as a trash can for throwing rubbish.

That Daming Treasure Banknote was created by his great-grandfather. If this thing is played well, can the Ming Dynasty be short of money?
I dare not say that the common people will not starve to death, but as long as the court is willing, it is impossible to be short of money.

But it's a pity that such a good thing was just thrown away after being made out of it, without any effort to maintain its value in society.

This is the limitation of the times
If he can manage this treasure of Ming Dynasty well with the financial means of later generations, it is impossible for him to lose the Ming Dynasty because the money is not in his hands.

To put it bluntly, this is a sickle for cutting leeks. As long as you don’t use it to dig out the roots, do the business of killing chickens and extracting eggs, and cut off the stubble of leeks from time to time, why is the Ming Dynasty so far.

Especially now that it is still in ancient times, under the feudal dynasty, there are no other external financial forces to interfere.

And you have all monetary powers such as minting rights, distribution rights, etc. If you can play until the treasury has no silver and destroys the country, then there is nothing to say.

So, after knowing all this, how could Zhu Zhanji be as excited as Xia Yuanji for the three million taels of silver.

"Okay, enough is enough, you can't close your mouth from ear to ear when you are happy."

However, the more Zhu Zhanji said that, the happier Xia Yuanji was.

It's been a long time, and every day I cook tofu with radish and green vegetables. It's hard to eat dumplings, Xia Yuanji can't be happy.

"Your Highness, you really don't care about your family and don't know the price of firewood, rice, oil and salt. The emperor will go for a walk to the north every now and then. The imperial court's finances are tight. As a subject, I have to share the emperor's worries."

"However, the situation is getting better now, and this is only a matter of returning the fire to the public. When the big head of the stalls and the officials and the gentry pay the food together, I don't have to dream every day to be afraid that the emperor will die again." Went to the north to fight."

As soon as Xia Yuanji said this, Zhu Zhanji burst out laughing.

It seems that my old man's war is not only his father's nightmare.

However, Zhu Zhanji still deliberately pretended to look down, and said: "Lord Xia, as a subject, if you make fun of the emperor with state affairs, aren't you afraid of being punished by the emperor?"

Hearing Zhu Zhanji's words, Xia Yuanji's expression also changed instantly.

The excited expression just now was gone.

Nervously said: "It's Wei Chen who speaks without restraint, look at my broken mouth, Wei Chen was too excited just now, I forgot to measure it for a while, I hope His Royal Highness the eldest grandson will punish me!"

Seeing Xia Yuanji whose expression suddenly changed, Zhu Zhanji chuckled and said, "Okay, I'm just joking with you, don't be so serious. If the old man knows that the finances have increased so much, I'm afraid it won't be his turn." When you say it, the old man said it himself."

Hearing Zhu Zhanji's words, knowing that His Royal Highness Changsun was joking with him, Xia Yuanji also heaved a long sigh of relief.

But when he spoke again, he was very measured.

"This is all thanks to His Royal Highness Changsun. If it weren't for His Royal Highness Changsun's orders, not to mention that the imperial court's financial revenue has increased so much, even a humble official may be pointed at the backbone and scolded for wronging the country after a hundred years. people."

"I haven't thanked my eldest grandson face to face for this matter."

However, Zhu Zhanji waved his hand indifferently and said, "Okay, it's all for the court, so there's no need to say more about it."

"By the way, since the matter on your side has been settled, the implementation of the New Deal should also be put on the agenda. Moreover, it is not a secret that the implementation of the New Deal has gone through such a commotion, so there is no need for us to It’s hidden. Yang Shiqi, Mr. Yang, the three of you should discuss it together, and it’s best to finalize it in a day or two.”

Hearing this, Xia Yuanji naturally had no objection to Zhu Zhanji's words.

"Master Yang should be in the cabinet at this time. Your Highness, please wait in the room for a while. I will order someone to invite Master Yang to come here."

Zhu Zhanji nodded and said, "Okay."

That's when Xia Yuanji ordered people to go to Shangshufang to invite Yang Shiqi to discuss matters together.

At this time, Jinyiwei was in Fusi, Beizhen.

Ji Gang, who is still the commander of Jinyiwei, is receiving the prisoners arrested this time with the people of Dongchang.

Among these people, Ji Gang knew most of them.

But now he still doesn't know how to protect himself, so naturally he won't worry too much about saving these people.

In the yamen of Beizhen Fusi, the people from Dongchang checked the number and identity of the prisoners while handling the documents for handing over the prisoners with Ji Gang.

It wasn't until all the formalities were completed that the people in the East Factory carefully recounted what Zhu Zhanji had said to Huang Yan.

Who should be dealt with should be explained in detail.

If Ji Gang used to be, he might still haggle over these matters, but now he is just quietly listening to instructions.

It wasn't until the people from the East Factory left that Ji Gang took the list of personnel in his hand to ponder.

"Is it because of the authority of the East Factory that Jin Yiwei is specially assigned to do this job?"

Ji Gang took the list booklet in his hand and slapped it casually on the table, while guessing Zhu Zhanji's purpose and thoughts in doing so.

But after thinking about it, he can't do anything at all now, his handle and life are in other people's hands, so he can only follow orders.

As for whether His Royal Highness the eldest grandson wanted to take this opportunity to test himself, or because of Dongchang's authority, it was difficult to handle these matters, or for some other purpose, this established fact could not be changed.

"Come on! Call me Qi Cheng!"

A while later, when Qi Cheng, the commander of Jinyiwei Beizhen Fusi, arrived, Ji Gang handed the booklet to Qi Cheng without any cover-up or mixing it up, and said, "This is from Dongchang. The list of a group of prisoners, His Royal Highness the eldest grandson has also explained the handling of these people, this matter is a bit sensitive to me, so I will leave it to you."

After finishing speaking, he specifically instructed: "This matter is of great importance, so do what you should do. If something goes wrong, before His Highness Changsun chops off my head, I will chop off yours first!"

It has to be said that after all, Ji Gang has been the commander of Jinyiwei for decades. Although most of his affairs have been heard by Jinyiwei, there are rumors about him.

But at this time, he is still the boss of Jinyiwei, the commander of Jinyiwei,
Before this point changes, Jin Yiwei still has the final say.

At the very least, Qi Cheng in front of him was still shocked.

After hearing Ji Gang's words, Qi Cheng said without any nonsense, "Your subordinate obeys!"

After Qi Cheng left, Ji Gang pondered again.

Now that he entrusts the matter to his subordinates, he can be regarded as staying out of it, and it is also an indirect expression of his attitude.

Since His Royal Highness Changsun didn't kill himself this time, he probably wouldn't deliberately take advantage of this incident to make things difficult. Thinking about it, there shouldn't be any changes in this incident itself.

However, this kind of days of being constantly feared and guarded by others is not what Ji Gang wants.

And if you want to change all this, you must first gain the trust of His Highness the eldest grandson, so that you can break the situation.

Thinking of this, Ji Gang, who sat in the yamen for a while, got up and left Jin Yiwei, heading towards the palace.

In a room in the Hubu compound.

Zhu Zhanji, Yang Shiqi and Xia Yuanji, together with Hu Shanxiang, a follower hiding in the corner, are discussing the next implementation of the New Deal.

"Then according to Master Yang's intention, we will be able to directly distribute the standards implemented by the New Deal to the yamen of all prefectures tomorrow."

Hearing Xia Yuanji's words, Yang Shiqi nodded, and said: "That's right, His Highness also said just now, since there is no need to hide it, then carry it out openly. Then according to the questions from the prefectural newspapers, we will It is a step-by-step solution. After His Highness took the opportunity to beat all parties, they would not dare to openly resist the new government policy."

"However, what we have to be wary of is that they don't dare to make it clear, and there will still be some secret methods."

"Compared to the policy of distributing the income to the mu, it is easier for the officials and the gentry to pay the grain as a whole. The imperial court directly canceled their tax exemption power, and only needs to send someone to check the amount of taxes they should pay. Needless to say, the salaries of the officials , there are accounts here at the Ministry of Households, but there will not be many."

"The key is how to account for the land under its name and various businesses that need to pay taxes, etc."

"However, although these are not so easy to handle, fortunately, there will not be too many tax-exempt people. It's just..."

Having said that, Yang Shiqi suddenly hesitated.

Seeing this, Zhu Zhanji asked, "Does Master Yang have any concerns?"

Yang Shiqi didn't hide it, nodded straightforwardly, and said: "These people who have the right to exempt the court from taxation are either important officials of the court, veterans of the former court, or royal family members. If you want them to obediently cooperate with the accounting, you have to Please appoint a very prestigious person."

When he said this, Yang Shiqi looked at Zhu Zhanji pointedly.

Obviously, Zhu Zhanji had to come forward to solve this matter in person.Of course, Zhu Zhanji does not need to come forward to do the accounting in person. After all, as the person who presided over the implementation of the New Deal this time, his biggest role is to sit in the center and direct the overall situation, rather than rushing to the front to do these things.

And the reason why he looked at Zhu Zhanji was that he had to solve this matter with Zhu Zhanji.

As for the specific candidate.
Listening to Yang Shiqi's words and feeling his meaningful eyes, Zhu Zhanji knew it clearly.

Because of the problems and difficulties that Yang Shiqi could think of, how could Zhu Zhanji not think of them.

The reason why Yang Shiqi insisted on looking at him was obviously that the person he was thinking of was not something he, Yang Shiqi, could move.

And this candidate, Zhu Zhanji didn't think of it.

Even the foreshadowing has been done in advance.

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanji was not modest, and said directly: "Your Highness understands the meaning of Lord Yang, and I will choose this candidate."

Seeing that Zhu Zhanji understood his thoughts with just one look, Yang Shiqi also sighed ten thousand in his heart.

Can it be blamed that the emperor shouted every day to remember his grandson every day?

Just being so smart and quick-witted can surpass countless people in the world.

What's more, judging from the expression of His Highness the eldest grandson just now, it is obvious that he has thought of all the problems and difficulties that he thought of, and even thought of the solution.

But when I listen to myself talking here, I can not show my face, how many people can I win in this city.
