eldest son of Ming dynasty

Chapter 98

The southward shift of the economic center since the Southern Song Dynasty made the southeast an important financial and taxation area for the central dynasty for more than 1000 years.In such a place, first of all, there should be no major chaos. If there is chaos, it must be extinguished in a short time.

This requires more careful planning.

It just so happened that Zhu Houzhao was still young, so he had time to bury the seeds one by one.

Academy is one,
There is also one in the southeast.

Even Yang Shen is one.

"Zhang Yong," Zhu Houzhao waved to the person kneeling at the entrance of the hall, "come in with me."

"Yes."

It's late in the evening, and it's a bit chilly.

The crown prince sat on the rug, with Zhang Yong and Liu Jin beside him.

"Father gave me a special decree to take a guard. What's the situation with these people now?"

Zhang Yong said truthfully: "After the emperor issued the decree, the slaves went to discuss with Ning Gonggong. The slaves controlled Tengxiang's left guard and commanded 600 soldiers. The commander was Bo Maorong of Nanning."

"Oh. By the way, the one you recommended last time is called..." Zhu Houzhao couldn't remember the name very well, but he had an impression of that person.

"Return to Your Highness, my name is Wu Junchuan."

"Oh, that's right, that's him. Let's make it into him too. Let's be a... small flag first. If it's good, we'll talk about it later."

"Yes!"

This person Zhu Houzhao just mentioned it casually, and then asked: "Are there really 600 people?"

Zhang Yong: "..."

Why is the prince always so sharp.

"...Go back to Your Highness, no. The servants went to see, a total of 5062 people."

So much, better than he expected.

"How many look majestic and brave?"

"This, the specifics are not yet known."

"Then go figure it out, and weave them together after you figure it out."

Zhang Yong thought for a while, "His Royal Highness means that the brave ones are all together, and the weak are also weaved together."

"Yes."

"So, what if those thousands of households don't agree?"

Zhu Houzhao flipped through something in his hand, and replied after hearing his words: "Aren't you restraining them? Why ask me."

Can it be the other way around.

The dignified prince, although some people's interests cannot be moved for the time being, but not everyone can't afford to be offended.

"The servant understands."

"After the division, you will be responsible for leading them to practice. Remember, you must really practice. I will find time to watch."

After talking about this, Zhu Houzhao gave him the things in his hands, "In addition to Tengxiang Zuowei, this also requires your attention."

Zhang Yong was startled when he saw it, "Why...why did you send so many spies to the southeast? Could something be wrong there?"

"currently there is not,"

This is, his old habit of keeping a hand in this matter.

That's what Liu Jin said, what if Mei Kejia fails?Or to put it more simply, what if he died?

Did the major affairs of the court stop here?
At the same time, although he left Mei Kejia's family in Beijing, it didn't mean he completely trusted Mei Kejia. What if someone accidentally rescued them?
Such a big family fled overseas,
What to do then?
Zhu Houzhao has a lot of things to do, and it is impossible to keep his eyes on how the Mei family is doing in the capital.

Therefore, Mei Kejia is [-]% trustworthy, and the information he provides must be compared.

The reason why this matter is so troublesome, and so long in advance, is to kill with one blow.Once the southeast is in chaos for a few years, it will be a huge event.

Because of the great power of Tatar in the north, Zhu Houzhao and the civil servants had many ideas that were at odds. During the Zhengde period, there were also cases of rebellion by two vassal kings.

Unsteady, how can it work?

"Didn't you train 30 people before? As long as they are not too stupid, they will be sent out this time as well, and the rest of the spies will be slowly absorbed. No Jinyiwei, no Dongchang, the money, I will pay for it myself."

This was beyond the expectations of Liu Jin and Zhang Yong, "It's going to this level?"

Yes!
Zhu Houzhao didn't believe in Mu Bin. He, the so-called commander with a sense of justice, had an ambiguous relationship with the civil service group. To put it bluntly, only Hongzhi could bear him.

Kill a few corrupt officials, he will probably have nothing.But once he kills a lot, it's hard to guarantee that he won't communicate with someone secretly.At that time, the whole situation will be ruined.

The same is true for Dongchang. During the Hongzhi period, the factory guards were suppressed by civil officials.

But these don't need to be explained to these two people one by one.

"Follow orders." Zhu Houzhao pursed his lips.

Zhang Yong's expression turned serious, "The servant obeys!"

Liu Jin asked: "This... Mei Kejia shouldn't know?"

"He doesn't have to know everything."

Zhu Houzhao was really worried about the Ming Dynasty,

People like Zhou Jing still think that he did bad things, but in fact, none of them know that what Zhu Houzhao did is a major event to restore the glory of Ming Dynasty.

Although he also wanted to create a situation where the monarch and his ministers get along with those gentlemen,
But when he really did things, he discovered that only the eunuch would carry out his orders to the letter.

after awhile,

An eunuch from outside came to report the matter,
Zhu Houzhao only glanced at it, and felt his blood surging upwards, "Wishful thinking!"

Zhang Yong and Liu Jin looked at each other, "Your Highness, what's the matter?"

"See for yourself!"

The angry Zhu Houzhao glanced at Liu Jin,
Eunuch Liu was so frightened that his heart trembled, thinking that he must have made a big mistake!
And when he really finished reading it, his mind became cold for a while,

"Your Highness forgive me, it's due to my servant's negligence, I thought Cheng Minzheng and others were just on duty as usual, I never thought that these self-proclaimed gentlemen would be so shameless."

Zhang Yong didn't understand what was going on.
He rushed over to take a look, but he yelled loudly at this look, "How shameless! Your Highness thought of a way to raise money by himself, and didn't want these people to be rich, and now he wants to let them use it after the school is built! I really want it!" It's so beautiful!"

"You can't rob them. To be able to rob things from the princes of the Ming Dynasty, they have to have great abilities." Zhu Houzhao rubbed his fingers, "I knew it would not be so smooth, but it didn't Unexpectedly, they still want to draw their salary from the bottom of the pot."

It is absolutely impossible for Xuegong, his most important seed, to want to be the second half of the Imperial Academy.

Zhu Houzhao stood up and wandered around. After a while, his thoughts became clear, "Call Zhang Tianrui into the palace tomorrow. Didn't they wait for the palace to be built before they can use it? That is to say, no matter how it is built now, No one will make any noise. Just let Zhang Tianrui speed up the progress, let go of his hands and feet, and the weather is warmer, which is a good time for work."

Liu Jin was a little worried, "But they really did this, and the reason for setting up an academy and promoting education is not easy to ignore."

"Don't listen to them scaring people! This matter should be handled like this! How many mouths do you still want to grab my money? Dreaming!"

Zhu Houzhao didn't believe that. If he wanted to use other people's interests, he had to plan years in advance and be prepared to bleed.

These literati want to snatch things from him, the prince, by reasoning?The book is stupid.

The worst and worst situation is that you are indeed reasonable, but I just don't like you, if you have the ability, you bring someone to rush in.

So this Cheng Minzheng is still suffering.
