Daming heir

Chapter 636: Ten taels of silver, I will give you a knife
When Zou Xueyu rushed to the palace and took the gold medal given by the emperor, he made his way to the East Palace without any hindrance.

The grandson of the Ming Dynasty's supervising emperor was squatting on the ground in front of everyone with a serious face.

Opposite the emperor's grandson, a chubby little meat ball was squatting on the ground with its buttocks squatting on the ground, staring at the emperor's grandson with two round eyes that looked aggrieved.

Between the two of them, a yellow-orange crystal persimmon was placed quietly.

The situation is serious and the atmosphere is solemn.

war.

At the touch of a hair.

"Aba Aba!"

The little meat ball took the lead in attacking. He kept raising his chubby hands, and then slapped his legs. With drool hanging from the corner of his mouth, he demonstrated to the bad guys with a rather ferocious look on his face, swearing that he was against the crystal persimmon in front of him. sovereignty.

Subsequently, the emperor's grandson, the supervisor of the Ming Dynasty, responded to the enemy's offensive.

"You are no match for me. Even if my father gives you one hand, you will not be able to take down this top-quality crystal persimmon."

The words were full of ridicule and contempt.

"Aba Aba!"

"Abba!"

The little meat ball seemed to become even more angry because of the villain's ridicule. His hands slapped faster, and the buttocks began to bounce up and down with full elasticity, taking the opportunity to keep getting closer to the crystal persimmon in front of him.

"We are father and son outside, but we have to use our own methods at home. Your son has kept me away from your mother for several days. It is fitting that you will not be able to eat this crystal persimmon today."

After saying that, Zhu Yunxi already stretched out a finger, raised it high, and covered the little meatball's head.

There was finally a hint of panic on Little Meatball's face.

That damn big hand could suppress him to death every time.

The enemy is too powerful and there is a huge disparity in strength between the two sides.

But I really want to eat this crystal persimmon.

The little meat ball frowned, and was about to use his final trick to summon his mother to come out and seek justice for him.

In the corner of Little Meatball's eye, a crimson figure flashed past.

"Aba Aba!"

The little meat ball immediately turned his head and waved his hand to Zou Xueyu, the Governor-General of Zhili Province in the Ming Dynasty who walked into the East Palace.

Zhu Yunxi was stunned for a moment. He had already heard the footsteps beside his ears.

He felt a little dissatisfied that someone suddenly came over and seemed to want to mediate the war between him and Little Meatball.

Zhu Yunxi turned his head.

Then he saw Zou Xueyu approaching.

Zou Xueyu looked majestic and majestic in his second-grade red robe.

When he arrived in front of Zhu Yunxi, he stopped and glanced at the grandson and great-grandson of the emperor who had no scruples about their royal status. He was a little surprised by the harmonious daily life of this royal father and son.

Royal harmony is what he wants to see most as a minister.

Zou Xueyu smiled and said softly: "Wei Chen, Zhili Dao Governor, Zou Xueyu. I have met His Highness the Emperor's Grandson and the Emperor's great-grandson."

"Aba Aba..."

"Gululu..."

When Little Meatball saw the bad guy looking away, he knew that his chance had finally come.

His buttocks bounced, his hands were raised high, and he threw himself in front of the yellow-orange crystal persimmon.With his fleshy hands, he hugged the crystal persimmon tightly, and then he lay on the ground, wanting to leave this place quickly.

Don't stay here for long!

There was a slight movement in Zhu Yunxi's ears.

Zou Xueyu never heard Zhu Yunxi's voice calling him, but he heard a huge sound wave in front of him sweeping towards him.

"Good boy!"

"He unexpectedly took advantage of the opportunity and attacked his father unprepared!"

"Wow, wow...see the trick!"

With Zou Xueyu's face full of shock, Zhu Yunxi raised his toes, and the little meat ball immediately fell to the ground.

Then Zhu Yunxi took a vigorous step.

With one hand, he pinched the collar of the small meat ball and lifted it up, and with the other hand, he picked up the crystal persimmon that had fallen to the ground.

He brought the crystal persimmon to his mouth, then lifted the small meat ball and placed it in front of him.

The little meatball stared at the crystal persimmon that was about to be put into the bloody mouth.

The most cruel thing to do to an enemy is to destroy the enemy's favorite thing in front of the enemy.

Zhu Yunxi didn't care how long the crystal persimmon had been played with on the ground by the father and son.

His mouth stuck to the crystal persimmon.

A hard.

Just hearing a sucking sound, the round and plump crystal persimmon deflated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The little meatball blinked.

The two eyes were also deflated visibly to the naked eye, and the mouth pursed.

"Wow wow wow..."

The cry was deafening.

"My son!"

A voice full of motherly protection for her cubs came from the side hall on the side.

Subsequently.

The first Governor-General of Zhili in the Ming Dynasty, he saw a beautiful figure and rushed out without even dropping the Yaoji mahjong tile in his hand.

Tang Queqing snatched the eldest son Zhu Wensheng from Zhu Yunxi's hand, held him in his arms, and patted his back gently to comfort him.

Zhu Yunxi glanced at her with beautiful eyes.

Concubine Taisun twisted her waist, which had become plumper after giving birth to the child, and re-entered the side hall next to her.

Soon, the child's crying stopped.

Concubine Taisun was killing everyone on the mahjong table, and the laughter of making a fortune could be heard.

Zou Xueyu blinked hard, wanting to confirm whether the scene he saw was true.

Zhu Yunxi was a little embarrassed, so he threw the shriveled persimmon skin into the flowers nearby, then held his sleeves with both hands and wiped his mouth haphazardly twice, showing no trace of decency and no care for cleanliness.

After I feel my face is clean.

Zhu Yunxi coughed slightly and glanced at Zou Xueyu.

"Zou Dutai entered the palace today. Did the governor's office encounter any difficulties?"

As the most powerful local official in the Ming Dynasty, Zou Xueyu had the imperial favor to travel freely in the court.

Zhu Yunxi was not surprised at all when Zou Xueyu appeared in the East Palace.

What he was curious about was what happened to Zou Xueyu soon after he took office as the Governor-General of Zhili Province, which caused him to enter the palace specially.

Zou Xueyu folded his hands and glanced at Zhu Yunxi with some resentment.

The emperor's grandson returned to the capital, and it was no different than if he had not returned to the capital.

After returning to Beijing, I lived a life behind closed doors, regardless of what people outside were doing.Zhu Yunxi probably understood the meaning of the governor-general's eyes. He looked a little embarrassed and waved his hand to cover up his embarrassment.

"Let's talk about it after entering the palace."

After saying that, Zhu Yunxi, who was embarrassed, immediately turned around.

Enter the temple.

Zou Xueyu saluted again.

Then he directly said: "Reporting to Your Highness, I have recently been appointed as the governor of Zhili Province. I am in charge of the military, political, commercial and civilian affairs of the 18th Zhili Prefecture. I issue official documents and strive to make the people rich and the treasury full. However, nowadays, there are some dissatisfied people in the local area. Gather a crowd to fight.

Zhili is the capital of the capital, guarding the capital and acting as a barrier to the imperial city.Although the minister wields the emperor's sword, he has the right to kill first and then report.However, in order to stabilize the people's hearts, the ministers did not dare to start a war and provoke bloodshed in Zhili.

I enter the palace today and respectfully request His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun to release me on matters concerning the direct administration of the country. "

Zhu Yunxi looked calm and took a sip of tea from the tea cup.

Put down the teacup.

Zhu Yunxi looked at Zou Xueyu who looked anxious in front of him, smiled slightly, and said softly: "Just kill him."

"kill……!"

Zou Xueyu's throat seemed to be blocked by something.

He made it very clear that he did not want to cause bloodshed in the Gyeongsang Province as soon as he took office.

But the emperor's grandson directly asked him to kill with a knife.

Zhu Yunxi looked at Zou Xueyu indifferently: "If that doesn't work, let your uncle Er Wang, His Highness King Qin, go to the Governor's Yamen for you. Keep His Highness King Qin in mind, and no one in Zhili Dao will dare to oppose the Governor's Yamen again. official document."

"Your Highness!"

Zou Xueyu couldn't help shouting.

This was the first time he met the emperor's grandson alone. There had never been a chance for the two of them to be alone before.

In his opinion, His Highness Taisun was always able to speak astonishingly, and his ideas for solving problems were also quite novel.

But he didn't expect that now that he encountered a problem, the emperor's grandson insisted on killing someone himself.

If he was willing to kill people, he wouldn't be here.

Zhu Yunxi curled his lips: "Look, you don't want to kill people, and you want to solve the problem. Then this matter will be difficult to solve."

Zou Xueyu paused and nodded.

Killing is naturally the best solution, and of course I know it.

Zhu Yunxi continued: "As an official, especially an official like you who holds power, you must not only be thoughtful, but also fearful. You must govern with kindness, but you must govern with authority. At present, Zhili Road Have you ever found out which individuals are dissatisfied and secretly stirring up trouble? Does the Governor's Yamen have any control over this?"

At this moment, it was Zou Xueyu's turn to feel embarrassed.

When I received the news today, I hurried to the palace to determine what I should do next.

But he forgot to ask someone to check first to see what the situation was like in the 18 prefectures under Zhili Road.

Zhu Yunxi waved his hand: "As the first governor of Zhili, I feel that the burden on my shoulders is as heavy as Mount Tai. I am afraid that I will make mistakes in my administration and live up to the emperor's favor. I know that you are under a lot of pressure now."

He sighed lightly, but he was not disappointed with Zou Xueyu.

However, Zou Xueyu's face turned red, he raised his hands and nodded: "I have disappointed His Highness..."

Zhu Yunxi shook his head and said: "The current situation in Zhili Road may be a new breakthrough point in our Hongwu New Deal of the Ming Dynasty. In my opinion, the people below and your Governor's Yamen are at odds with each other. If you want to seize power, you They want to benefit the people, but the people underneath only want to benefit themselves.

Now, are they starting to instigate the Governor's Yamen...or should I say you, the Governor-General, against the local people.

Even... you were aware of the situation when you took office. You did not attack local officials, but the government offices, merchants, and famous gentry families.

So now...the problem encountered by the governor's office is nothing more than the opposition of merchants, who even said that they would leave Zhili Road because of you, the governor-general, and the people gathered to surround the local government office, asking them to distinguish with you. "

Zou Xueyu was a little surprised.

He tried hard to distinguish the expression of the young imperial grandson in front of him.

Zou Xueyu was very sure that the emperor's grandson in front of him had really been staying at home in the palace recently and had not inquired about or understood the things outside.

However, he analyzed the current situation outside with such certainty.

Zou Xueyu lowered his head: "There are no errors or omissions in what His Highness said. Today, the governor's office received the message. The merchants stayed away and the people surrounded the government office. I have issued an order to request the assistance of the Tax Division of the Zhili Municipal Taxation Bureau to control the collection and payment of taxes from merchants leaving the country. It is clearly stated The governor's office only clears land belonging to families with more than [-] acres of land."

In the hall, it was quiet for a while.

Zhu Yunxi tapped the armrest with his fingers, squinting his eyes and thinking deeply.

After half a sound.

Zhu Yunxi just spoke again: "Every response is appropriate. Naturally, the imperial court cannot prohibit who will leave or stay. But since your governor's office has tax regulations, just act in accordance with the regulations. Naturally, the imperial court will not feel that you are at fault.

As for your intention to clear out the families in Zhili Province who own more than [-] acres of land in your name..."

Zou Xueyu suddenly became nervous.

After all, it stands to reason that among the things His Highness King Qin has been doing in the past few years, Qingzhang's land is included.

At this time, he took the Governor's Yamen to clear the land again. There was no doubt that he had doubts about the fairness of what King Qin had done before.

However, Zhu Yunxi suddenly smiled: "For ten taels of silver, I will give you a knife and teach you a good method. Keep it and implement it. From now on in Zhili Road, if you say one thing, no one will dare to say another."

Ten taels of silver!

Zou Xueyu opened his mouth and was almost dumbfounded.

He began to wonder if he had heard wrongly.

When did His Highness the Emperor Grandson of the Ming Dynasty actually ask for money from the officials below for court matters?

Ten taels of silver a way.

If this were said out loud, I'm afraid it would immediately cause a burst of laughter.

Zhu Yunxi, however, looked serious and said in a deep voice: "Only ten taels of silver! Children and old men are not deceived! If your grandson hadn't plundered all my little treasury so that I could play mahjong with the ladies in the harem, I would have at least got I’ll offer you 100 taels!”

The grandson is short of money and urgently needs pocket money.

Zou Xueyu understood the meaning.

But for a moment, he couldn't laugh or cry.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. Your Majesty will go home today and ask your family to prepare some money for Your Highness." Zou Xueyu agreed, and even extended this: "I will put the silver in the governor's office at that time. If Your Highness wants to use it, I will order someone to do so." Come and get it.”

This meant that a small treasury should be set up privately outside the palace, and that he, the governor-general of Zhili, would personally take care of the small treasury for His Highness the Emperor Taisun.

For a moment, Zou Xueyu really wanted to laugh out loud.

What are these things called.

Zhu Yunxi's face was full of joy.

If that woman hadn't plundered all her little treasury because she had a good boy, would I have stayed in this palace every day, fighting with that good boy who only knew how to talk about babies?

The monarch and his ministers quietly reached some kind of agreement that only men would understand.

For a time, the monarch and his ministers were in harmony.

Zhu Yunxi waved to Zou Xueyu with a smile on his face.

Zou Xueyu stepped forward.

"You have to use this sword well. If you use it well, you will have a place in the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty in the future!"
