Daming Jingtai: I am the eternal benevolent king

Chapter 83 I am the Emperor!Overwhelm Hu Mei!Behind the catastrophe, Wang Yue was assassinated!

Chapter 83 I am the Emperor!Overwhelm Hu Mei!Behind the catastrophe, Wang Yue was assassinated!

Wan Zhen'er had a graceful figure and knelt on the ground.

Zhu Jianshen noticed the emperor's eyes. It was the way a man looks at a woman. If he didn't kill someone, the emperor would definitely leave Wan Zhen'er to sleep with him!

"Give the knife to the prince!" Zhu Qiyu found out something, when Zhu Jianshen was anxious, his nose stopped running, and he said he wasn't just pretending?

The three eunuchs Niu Yu, Zhang Min, and Wang Lun lay on the ground and shivered.

Everyone heard that Qinzheng Hall is the Devil's Hall.

It's really worthy of the name. The Devil's Temple can't do without offering sacrifices for a day, but I didn't expect that it would be their turn today.

The most wronged is Wang Lun, I did not betray the prince, nor did I offend the emperor?Why should he be killed?
"Your Highness, please spare me!" Wang Lun kowtowed like garlic.

Zhu Jianshen really didn't want to do anything wrong, so he looked at the emperor: "Your Majesty, Wang Lun did nothing wrong in serving his subjects, can you spare his life?"

"The prince can do whatever he says, and the palace maids will stay and serve me tonight."

really!

The emperor threatened him with Wan Zhen'er!
"No, Your Majesty!" Zhu Jianshen knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face.

"No more runny nose?" Zhu Qiyu asked angrily.

Mouth!
Zhu Jianshen sniffled belatedly, with a frightened expression.

Zhu Qiyu smiled: "Stop pretending, this is not the first time you have lied to me, I don't blame you, just do it."

"Your Majesty, please forgive me!" Wang Lun cried.

"He is the loudest, cut him first!" Zhu Qiyu pointed at Wang Lun.

Wang Lun is completely stupid, is it wrong to beg for mercy?

Squeak!

Feng Xiao pushed the door of Qinzheng Palace open, and the cool breeze poured in. All the palace servants in Qianqing Palace knelt at the door, watching the prince cut his heart.

Zhu Jianshen shook his hand, the emperor is killing people!

His reputation must be ruined!

From now on, I can only hug the emperor's thigh and be a mascot, otherwise, when the emperor secures the throne, he can be replaced as a prince in the name of violence!
This is the price he paid for hooking up with Chen Xun!
Seeing Zhu Jianshen's delay in making a move, Zhu Qiyu hooked his fingers at Wan Zhen'er and asked her to come and serve her.

"what!"

Zhu Jianshen stabbed in with a knife, and Wang Lun screamed incessantly.

Blood spattered Zhu Jianshen's face!
The key point is that the knife was stabbed in the wrong place, on the chest, far away from the heart.

"Your Highness, can you give this servant a happy time!" Wang Lun cried bitterly. He was held down by two eunuchs and couldn't move.

This knife is not fatal, but it hurts!
In addition, watching the white knives enter and the red knives exit with one's own eyes, the feeling of fear is even more frightening.

"You, don't talk! I'm afraid too!" Zhu Jianshen's hands were trembling, and he didn't want to kill him, but the emperor asked him to choose between Wan Zhen'er and Wang Lun.

puff!
Zhu Jianshen stabbed in with a knife, and the blood got his hand.

His hand was weak and he couldn't move it anymore, maybe he poked a bone.

Feng Xiao was there to guide him, it was time to turn the knife, with a slight stir, the skin would be torn apart, and the heart could be seen.

"Stop screaming. The more you scream, the more my hands shake. Stop screaming." Zhu Jianshen cried and begged Wang Lun to stop screaming.

Wang Lunri is a dog, you cut my heart and still don't let me scream?Is there any law of heaven and king?

"His Royal Highness, move a little this way, and the palace servants outside will not be able to see it." Feng Xiao reminded Zhu Jianshen not to block the view of the audience.

Zhu Jianshen cried even more, stirring the knife tremblingly.

Wang Lun screamed even more horribly.

"It's ready." Feng Xiao guided the whole process.

Zhu Jianshen put his hand into the cavity, it was scorching hot inside.

Wang Lun couldn't cry anymore, he was dying, he was about to die, and before he died, his eyes shot out hatred, and he opened his mouth to bite Zhu Jianshen's arm!

Zhu Jianshen reacted quickly, took out his heart, and retreated quickly, blood dripping all over the floor.

"Look, I just said that your slave is not loyal, right? I will take revenge on you before I die, Prince, thank you!" Zhu Qiyu said sarcastic remarks.

Zhu Jianshen's tears flowed down, and he was worried that the prince's name would definitely not escape.

"Prince, don't you want to thank you?" Feng Xiao whispered.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En!" Zhu Jianshen lay on the ground, holding a heart in his hand, not knowing where to throw it.

"It's a pity to throw it away, let Niu Yu eat it!" Zhu Qiyu said lightly.

Niu Yu widened his eyes and shook his head: "No, no!"

"Humph!"

"Niu Yu, you colluded with the Supreme Emperor and betrayed the prince, do you know what crime it is?"

"I only cut your heart, and I've done extra-legal mercy!"

Zhu Qiyu stood up and walked to Niu Yu's side: "The order of the East Palace has been issued, you are not lonely on the road to Huangquan, your nine clans will follow you! In the next life, you will be reborn as a dog, don't be a human, at least a dog knows loyalty!"

"Ah?" Niu Yu exclaimed.

"Do it!" Zhu Qiyu's tone was cold.

Now is not a good time to deal with the Supreme Emperor. His top priority is to seize the power of the court, so he has to deal with the crown prince as soon as possible.

Not to mention letting Niu Yu come out to bite the Supreme Emperor, that would put the Tian Family at risk, and the government would be unstable, so we can't add to the chaos for the time being.

"Your Majesty! This servant can help you deal with the Supreme Emperor! This servant knows a lot about the Supreme Emperor..."

Bang!
Zhu Qiyu kicked him fiercely: "A dog eunuch, dare to provoke the family relationship of the Tian family? I and the Supreme Emperor are blood brothers! How can we kill each other? It's all you bunch of bastards that made me and the Supreme Emperor, brothers Cannibalism!"

"Family love in heaven, there is no one out of ten! It's all you waiting for the traitor to instigate!"

"Feed him!"

The court must be stable!

Can't irritate Hu Ming anymore!
Not to mention Yu Qian, who can't command an army of 27, the court needs stability!The Tian family still needs this fig leaf!

The most important thing is that Zhu Qiyu is not ready yet.

This Niu Yu seemed smart, but actually committed a big taboo. The emperor was teaching the prince a lesson, not abolishing the prince.

The reason why the Palace of Qianqing was allowed to watch was to tell the world that the prince is still the prince!I will punish him, but not abolish him!
Zhu Jianshen was also furious, this Niu Yu was really untrustworthy, he had been spared a few times alone, and turned around to seek refuge with the emperor again, wasting the trust of Gu for many years!Damn it!
He stuffed his heart into Niu Yu's mouth!
"Don't spit it out!" Zhu Jianshen roared viciously.

Niu Yu wanted to vomit, so he pressed Niu Yu's head with one hand and his mouth with the other, letting him chew and swallow!
What he hates most is betrayal.

Niu Yu has betrayed him for the second time, so he deserves to die!
This time, Zhu Jianshen moved cleanly and took out a heart.

Then he looked at Zhang Min coldly.

Without the emperor's order before, Zhu Jianshen did not dare to kill Zhang Min, but now it is different, he can kill Zhang Min for revenge!
He wanted to stuff Niu Yu's heart into Zhang Min's mouth and force Zhang Min to eat it!
"Wait a minute, leave this heart to Xu Gan." Zhu Qiyu will not be too cheap, so he must be taught a lesson and be more honest.

After I have rectified the court, it is time for you and my brothers to meet!

Zhu Jian was deeply suffocated and knelt on the ground: "My son obeys the order!"

"My lord, please spare me, my lord, this slave is yours!" Zhang Min crawled over, crying and howling.

Zhu Jianshen held him down and killed the emperor's dog!
"You dog eunuch, you have been disloyal to me, and I will make your death more painful!" Zhu Jianshen was actually a little addicted, and it was so satisfying to cut his heart, he didn't even stutter when he spoke.

Zhang Min kept screaming, and the whole Qinzheng Hall smelled bloody.

The palace servant kneeling by the door has already vomited.

On the contrary, Zhu Jianshen, with a bit of excitement in his expression, really looks like the brutal Zhu Qiyu.

But at this time, Hu Wei came in slowly with a cane, and the palace servants automatically moved out of the way. Hu Ming happened to see Zhu Jianshen's excited expression on his face, and his face turned black immediately!
"stop!"

Hu Yu roared, how can a dignified prince do such cruel and tyrannical things?Don't you want your reputation?How can you look exactly like the current emperor when you murder someone?
Wait, did the emperor force you?
puff!
Just in time, Zhu Jianshen took out his heart, just in time to hear Hu Min roaring, his hands trembled in fright, and Zhang Min's heart fell to the ground.

Zhang Min looked down and looked at his still beating heart: You just don't take my heart seriously?Just throw it on the ground?

spit!
In the next life, our family will definitely not be an eunuch, but Zhu Jianshen's son, I'm mad at you!
Zhang Min stared at Zhu Jianshen resentfully, then slowly closed his eyes...

Zhu Jianshen knelt on the ground like a quail, and just happened to squeeze his heart out of his knees, crying non-stop.

You can tell at a glance that it must be forced by His Majesty!

Zhu Qiyu was also stunned: "Why didn't anyone report the Grand Tutor's entry into the palace?"

Feng Xiao was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and looked at Wynn reproachfully.

Huai En kowtowed, and all the people in the palace were called to watch the prince cut his heart, and no one was guarding outside the palace.

"The six ministries and the cabinet have discussed disaster relief measures, and the veterans have come to send a memorial to His Majesty."

Hu Wei said aggressively, "Hmph, if the old minister hadn't seen it with his own eyes, how would he have seen the scene of the tiger poisonous eater? Your Majesty, what is the prince doing? What are you asking him to do!"

Zhu Qiyu glanced at Zhu Jianshen, he really knows how to act.

"It's all withdrawn. I and the Taifu have something intimate to say."

Zhu Qiyu ordered the dead man to be dragged down, and gave Hu Wei a seat.

But after Hu Wei entered the hall, he insisted on kneeling in the center of the hall and refused to sit down.

He originally wanted to have a good talk with the emperor, hoping to make a peaceful transition to the life after Chen Xun's death and maintain the stability of the court.

But he never expected to see such a cruel scene.

Zhu Jianshen cried pitifully, which made Hu Min feel distressed.

"Old Madam Fu, I have a deep relationship with the prince and his son, and I just taught him some methods of self-protection." Zhu Qiyu was annoyed secretly, Zhu Jianshen was too good at acting.

"Your Majesty, is this called deep love between father and son? How old is the crown prince this year, and you let him kill people? Kill him with heart? How will the crown prince govern the country in the future?"

Hu Wei's words scared Zhu Jianshen back his tears, and he knelt on the ground in horror: "Teacher, I know I was wrong!"

"Prince, don't be afraid, the old minister is here." Hu Yan comforted Zhu Jianshen, glaring at the emperor.

"Haha, it's just killing people? How old was Taizong? Didn't Emperors Renzong and Xuanzong kill people? Didn't I kill people? How old were you when you killed people, Tai Tuo? Well, the prince was frightened, let's go back to the East Palace. "

Zhu Qiyu wanted to make big things smaller, he wanted to ease the relationship with Hu Min, so he bowed his head when he should, anyway, he didn't intend to really deal with the prince.

"My son, leave!" Zhu Jian wept deeply and kowtowed, playing the pity to the extreme, even Zhu Qiyu couldn't bear to see him.

"Go, the crown prince is terrified, let Xiang Sibao go to serve you, this maid is loyal or traitor, you still need to distinguish, stay in Qianqing Palace for now, I will help you watch." Zhu Qiyu sneered, still can't cure you up.

Zhu Jianshen trembled all over, the emperor was taking revenge on him!

He knelt on the ground, trembling in his heart.

Hu Yi was old and refined, and sighed: "Your Majesty, let the prince be fulfilled."

"Old Madam Fu, are you not angry anymore?" Zhu Qiyu raised his eyes, not taking the opportunity to get angry, he wanted to repair the relationship with Hu Wei.

"The old minister begs His Majesty that the prince will never be allowed to do such a violent thing in the future. Today's matter, the old minister helped the prince to cover it up. This matter ends here and cannot be spread."

Of course Hu Yi saw through the emperor's strategy, you are so stinky, you want to drag the prince into the shithole too.

Have you asked the courtier?

We want to assist a wise emperor like Renzong, not a violent king like you!

"Forget it, the crown prince's reputation is important. Tomorrow it will be said that the three eunuchs of the East Palace were hit by the blade and died."

Hu Yan rolled his eyes, the emperor wanted to make a deal with him!

"The prince, please go back to the palace." Hu Yan said slowly.

"Prince, quickly help the old master up." Zhu Qiyu's eyes flashed.

Hu Yi glanced at it, the prince's hands were full of blood, if he helped him up, wouldn't it hurt him all over?
Alas, the little thought of the emperor!

Zhu Jianshen had nowhere to put his hands, and he didn't dare to disobey the emperor's order, so he could only look at Hu Wei pitifully.

"Prince, help me." Hu Yi sighed.

"Thank you, Grand Tutor!" Zhu Jianshen carefully helped Hu Wei up, and performed the trap to the fullest.

Zhu Jianshen succeeded again!

Zhu Qiyu's eyes darkened, I can't take off the hat of this villain.

Forget it, let Xiang Sibao take good care of you!
Send away the prince and Wan Zhen'er.

Zhu Qiyu asked people to close the door and asked all the eunuchs to leave.

"Old Madam Fu entered the palace, why?" Zhu Qiyu said calmly.

The emperor's narrow-mindedness is really in the same line, with the portrait of Emperor Taizong, and the portrait of Emperor Xuanzong, alas.

Hu Yan glanced at the blood on his body and sighed.

"Report to Your Majesty, the cabinet has drawn up disaster relief items, please have a look at it."

Hu Wei presented the memorial.

Zhu Qiyu has ten lines at a glance. These disaster relief strategies are commonplace, but they are all effective strategies.

"allow."

"Your Majesty, it's just that the household department is empty, and there is no money or food for disaster relief." Hu Wei smiled wryly.

"First adjust the emergency food in the normal warehouse, and the central court will find a way."

"We can't let the victims go hungry. If the victims are hungry, they will rebel. We can't turn Shandong into Huguang."

"Two capitals and thirteen provinces, there are fewer and fewer provinces that can provide taxes to the court. The world is already overwhelmed, Taifu."

Zhu Qiyu sighed.

There are so many disasters tomorrow, which can be called the most in history.

The peaceful and prosperous times are nothing more than whitewashing. It is because there are not enough rebellions and the finances have not completely collapsed, so the so-called prosperous times are promoted by civil officials. In fact, the people are starved and bones are everywhere.

I didn't take care of this family.

"Your Majesty is right to worry."

Hu Wei hesitated and said: "When the old minister was young, he traveled around the world. At that time, it was still the Yongle Dynasty, and the Changping warehouse was no longer worthy of the name. Time has passed, and the situation may be even worse. The old minister is worried that His Majesty will use the Changping warehouse to relieve disasters. I am afraid that he is forcing the refugees to die. "

As he spoke, he knelt on the ground, worried that the emperor would not hear the truth.

I was also prepared for the emperor to be furious, but if I didn't want Shandong to be full of flames, I couldn't use Changping warehouses to provide relief. That would be forcing the victims to rebel.

"Old Madam, please, I don't know what the old Madam said. There was a flood in Jiangxi two years ago, and I used Changping warehouses to help. There are countless dead. Even now, Jiangxi is not stable."

Zhu Qiyu personally helped Hu Min up: "The old matriarch and I said this intimate words, and I am very comforted."

"However, there is no food left in Jingcang."

He looked at Hu Wei earnestly: "Does the old master have a clever plan to teach me?"

"If there is no tile, you can still transfer food from the center, but now... I am afraid there is only one way, and I can only buy food from merchants."

"Will the grain merchant sell me the grain?" Zhu Qiyu didn't believe it.

These grain merchants are eager for famine every day, so why are they willing to sell grain to the central government?They will use the least amount of food to squeeze out the last copper coins of the victims. As for whether the people will die or not, what do the merchants do?
Moreover, there are local wealthy and powerful households, who naturally took advantage of the fire to rob and recruit refugees as tenants.

Whenever there is a famine, the court racks its brains and scratches its head for relief, but these people hold a feast of gluttony and wanton revelry.

Local officials are not clean, and the three parties work together, and the unlucky ones are poor people.

"Your Majesty, if the court directly buys it, it will naturally not be sold, but it can be traded in the name of a merchant, but the price is a little higher, at least to save some victims from dying." Hu Wei said cautiously.

"What if I kill the chicken and get the eggs?" Zhu Qiyu's voice turned cold.

Wouldn't it be over if these damned grain merchants were directly ransacked and exterminated?
"Your Majesty must not do it. Now that Xuan Town is in emergency, there is a catastrophe in Shandong. If Your Majesty uses thunderbolts to cure the disaster again, I am afraid there will be endless disasters!"

Hu Wei didn't say it clearly, but actually said: If the emperor kills the merchants, the whole Shandong will rebel, and the situation will be even worse at that time.

"I, the emperor, still want to be angry with merchants?" Zhu Qiyu's eyes were as sharp as a knife.

"Your Majesty, be patient for now, and settle the matter afterwards!" Hu Yan gritted his teeth and said in deliberation.

"Can it really be settled?" Zhu Qiyu is also testing the relationship between Hu Min and the merchant. If Hu Min is standing behind the merchant, he should give up his thoughts as soon as possible.

"can!"

Hu Yi was decisive.

He is also thinking about how to establish a new relationship with the emperor.

Today is different from the past, the emperor is grasping the imperial power, we can't just block it like before, it's absolutely impossible.

Now we have to regard the emperor as the emperor, establish a correct cooperation method with the emperor, and give him the imperial power, but we can't let the emperor enjoy the imperial power alone, so half of it must be given to the courtiers.

Hu Wei is not Chen Xun. He is never radical or strong in his actions, and he will choose to back down when it is time to back down.

Zhu Qiyu tapped his fingertips, thinking about Hu Min's words.

That is to say, he has nothing to do with merchants, so who are the backers of these merchants in the court?

Zhu Qiyu thought of Zhang Renxiao, and he would know when Dongchang finished copying Chen Xun's house.

"It's also good to have fewer refugees die."

Zhu Qiyu breathed a sigh of relief: "Old Madam Fu, even if the court cannot completely relieve the disaster, it must give hope to the victims. With hope, there will be no rebellion."

As for being captured by a powerful gentry as a tenant, it is better than dying. At least there is hope for a living person, and the emperor is very helpless.

Hu Wei nodded, the top priority is disaster relief, and everything else has to be postponed.

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Household Affairs doesn't have any money." Hu Min said again.

"How much do you estimate the disaster relief will cost?"

Zhu Qiyu added another lower limit: "It is enough to stabilize Shandong, Shandong cannot be chaotic!"

"At least 30 taels, and that's not counting the cost of repairing the Yellow River dam."

Zhu Qiyu was a little desperate, he couldn't wait for the money.

"Your Majesty, 10 taels is fine, but I'm afraid Shandong's vitality will be severely damaged, and it won't be able to recover within 30 years." Hu Wei smiled wryly.

"Spend the money as it should. I don't want a deserted Shandong!"

Shandong is a very evil place. Both Taizu and Taizong hated this place. In recent years, Shandong has the heaviest taxation and the heaviest corvee.There is even a second emperor sitting on top of Shandong, the Kong family!No one would believe that the Kong family was the real emperor of Shandong.

"But this money?" Hu Wei spread his hands with a helpless expression.

"What can the master do?"

"The veteran thinks that taxes can be raised appropriately..."

Before finishing speaking, Zhu Qiyu interrupted directly: "Absolutely not!"

"Old Madam Fu, the people of Ming Dynasty are too poor, and it is already difficult for them to live. If taxes are increased, the whole country may be full of wars. I am afraid that the emperor will really punish himself!"

"There must be no more tax increases, not even a copper coin! The emperor can't reduce taxes for the people, and what he has done is not as good as his ancestors."

Zhu Qiyu looked sad, I am not qualified to be an emperor.

"It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice." Hu Wei smiled wryly.

A sharp light flashed in Zhu Qiyu's eyes: "If I have a way, it depends on whether the old lady is willing to cooperate?"

"Your Majesty wants to levy business taxes?"

Hu Yi immediately saw through the emperor's mind, and said helplessly, "Your Majesty wants to levy business taxes, there is no other way."

"However, there are two biggest problems: one is to mark it with what items? Is there any supervision for the collection?"

"Secondly, there is not enough planning in the court. The Ministry of Households put down all the accounts, and at most it can collect within the scope of the capital, and no more will be enough."

"This has created many problems: if only the capital is levied, the merchants will inevitably leave the capital, which will lead to business depression in the capital and affect the livelihood of the people."

"Also, people with no morals and no talents who don't read sage books, how can we guarantee that they will not be greedy or possessive?"

Zhu Qiyu frowned, what Hu Wei said was a practical problem.

"The most difficult thing is that even if taxes are collected, it is not a day's work. The disaster in Shandong is right in front of us. We need money urgently, and we can't delay it for a moment." Hu Wei looked helpless.

"Teacher, I just ask you, do you agree?" Zhu Qiyu wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble.

"As long as the money can be collected, the old minister will agree!" Hu Wei also went all out, but he was very pessimistic, thinking that the emperor would not be able to collect commercial taxes.

It is not that Ming Dynasty did not have commercial taxes, but very few were collected.

Needless to say, the reason is that it cannot be collected anyway.

"The old minister wants to know, how does His Majesty collect taxes?" Hu Min asked.

"This matter still needs to be kept secret, I will catch merchants by surprise!"

Zhu Qiyu's eyes flashed: "Since the old lady supports it, I will hold a public auction and invite all merchants in Beijing to participate. If I don't show up, I will let Jin Zhong act as an agent. I plan to auction off all the dental shops and collapsed houses. The highest one wins, and the money raised will be used for disaster relief.”

Hu Wei was shocked and looked at the emperor in surprise.

Dental stores and collapsed houses are imperial stores, which are spread all over the country and are monopoly industries.

Before, when Emperor Renzong was here, the imperial court advised Emperor Renzong countless times not to compete with the people for profit, to give up the imperial store, and to give up the monopoly.

However, the benevolent and wise Emperor Renzong resolutely opposed it and would never let it go.

Compared with Huangzhuang, Huangdian is the main source of domestic money.

Unexpectedly, this current emperor, who was judged by the officials as a tyrannical king, would actually give up the imperial store for disaster relief!

"The veteran thanked His Majesty Long En for the disaster victims in Shandong!"

Hu Yi knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily.

"Teacher, get up, aren't the disaster victims my children? After all, money is something outside of the body, and I can't bear to let my children suffer."

Zhu Qiyu begged in a tone of voice: "But I also invite the Grand Tutor. I hope that all the courtiers will participate and sell the imperial store at a high price. If Shandong is not chaotic, it depends on how much money can be sold!"

"The veteran must personally supervise, and never let the imperial store fall into the hands of unscrupulous traders!" Hu Wei kowtowed.

Zhu Qiyu helped him up.

In fact, the imperial store has long since existed in name only, being squeezed out by private merchants and greedy by guarding eunuchs, earning only 8 to [-] taels of silver every year.

For tens of thousands of taels of silver, it is really not worth bearing a bad name, it is better to throw it out in exchange for a good reputation.

He is going to get the imperial power now, and what he wants is the stability of the court. After Chen Xun's death, he, the emperor, has to be a paper backer himself to restore the stability of the court, so that he can successfully regain the imperial power.

As for the money, it's all in Daming's pot, will it fly?
Once the imperial power is in hand, will there still be a shortage of money?

The eunuchs guarding Huangzhuang and Huangdian are all greedy. If they are killed, won't the money come back?

For those that are missing or not accounted for, just keep looking until you find them all!

With the imperial power in hand, who dares to say no to killing a bloody river?

Now, be stable!
He also urgently needs a good reputation, in exchange for Hu Wei's support, in exchange for the stability of the court.

Don't be messed up.

"Teacher, help me do the math again, what else can I sell? Sell it together!"

Hu Wei could tell that the emperor had the world in mind.

This time it's really gone.

Everything that could be sold was sold, and the bulk of internal money was gone.

"Teacher, Jin Zhong and you will handle the auction of the imperial store. The money will not go through internal funds or the hands of the Ministry of Accounts. The money will be directly escorted to Shandong."

Zhu Qiyu grabbed Hu Min's arm and said emotionally: "Teacher, these are the life-saving money for the victims. The victims are stable. Shandong is here. The courtiers must not stretch out their hands. Just this time, I beg you, don't be greedy, okay." ?"

Hu Wei blushed and knelt on the ground: "The old minister promises that Shandong will be as stable as Mount Tai!"

"Okay! I have handed over Shandong to the Grand Tutor!"

"But the ugly words are up front. People from Dongchang, Jinyiwei, and Tiqi will spy on them secretly."

"Once you let me know, someone will manipulate this money, causing the disaster victims to rebel and make Shandong unstable!"

"Teacher, when the time comes! I will definitely kill a river of blood! When the time comes, you must not stop me! When the time comes, whoever stops me, I will kill him!"

"I will also issue an imperial decree to Yu Qian. If someone uses the money, I will let the Beijing camp directly stationed in Shandong, and kill the officialdom in Shandong, and the blood will flow like a river! I will pierce the sky, and I will take care of it!"

Zhu Qiyu's eyes were as sharp as a knife.

Hu Yan slowly knelt on the ground: "If someone digs out the roots of Daming, the old minister will be the first to let him go!"

"it is good!"

Zhu Qiyu opened his hands: "I and the Tai Tuo, high-five and swear!"

Hu Wei stood up tremblingly, and clapped three palms with the emperor as an oath.

But my heart was inexplicably cold, and I felt as if I was tricked by the emperor.

The affairs of the courtiers should be under the cabinet's control. I am a minister of the Ministry of officials, so what's the point of messing around?
But I also understand one thing, the first fire for the emperor to regain the imperial power will be burned in Shandong!
Let's talk about the disaster.

"Old Madam Fu, my heart doesn't fall to the ground every day." Zhu Qiyu smiled wryly and sat down on the soft bed.

"Your Majesty, please sleep in peace, no one can shake you!" Hu Ming knew what Zhu Qiyu was talking about.

"Just now Xu Bin said that the Supreme Emperor is planning a conspiracy. I suspect that it has something to do with it." Zhu Qiyu's eyes turned cold.

Hu Wei's complexion changed slightly: "Your Majesty, we must not cause extra problems! Chen Xun has just died, and the court is unstable. Your Majesty should put the stability of the court as the most important thing, and no extra problems will be allowed!"

"Teacher is right, I have already castrated Xu Bin and sent him to serve the Supreme Emperor."

Hu Wei was inexplicably cold, from a family of eunuchs to a family of eunuchs, the difference of one word, the difference of heaven and earth, and a stick of silence for Xu Bin.

"I also know the priorities, but the Supreme Emperor is blocking me."

"The five words written by Chen Xun before he died, the more I think about it now, the more terrifying I feel."

"The Supreme Emperor in Nangong can control the assassination and control the court, and Zhang Fu from the capital can make Chen Xun work for him. It's terrible, Taifu! I really can't sleep, I dare not sleep!"

Zhu Qiyu looked at Hu Mei.

Hu Ming understood that the emperor asked him to support the emperor in a clear-cut manner, instead of just following the wind and swaying between the current emperor and the emperor.

"Teacher, the imperial physician said that I am in good health and can give birth!" Zhu Qiyu gave him a reassurance.

Hu Wei's face changed slightly, the emperor was telling him that he would not die, and he could still have a son, so his heart was at ease!

But serving a monarch like Taizong, is there really a good end?
Slowly, he knelt on the ground: "The old minister thanked His Majesty for his attention, and the old minister is willing to go through fire and water for His Majesty!"

Hu Wei had no choice. The emperor said that for this sake, he either stood with the emperor with a clear-cut stand, or became the enemy of the emperor.

"Teacher please get up quickly!" Zhu Qiyu laughed and quickly helped Hu Wei up.

"Your Majesty, if you don't kill Chen Xun, the Supreme Emperor will be nothing to worry about." Hu Wei sighed.

That's right, Zhang Fu played Chen Xun like a monkey.

Chen Xun will definitely retaliate, and he will retaliate extremely violently. At that time, the one who feels uncomfortable is the Supreme Emperor.

"Old ma'am, what's the use of talking about the dead?" Zhu Qiyu sneered, if you didn't kill Chen Xun, would you talk to me like this?
Am I not your mascot in a cage?
If I really want to deal with the Supreme Emperor, will I have any means?
Hu Wei is warning me not to kill people casually anymore. Killing courtiers without authorization is beneficial, but the disadvantages are also huge.

The emperor should be the protector of the rules, not the victim of the rules, because the biggest beneficiary of the Ming rules is the emperor.

Therefore, Hu Wei hopes that the emperor will abide by the rules honestly in the future.

"Your Majesty, what the court needs right now is stability."

"I know."

Send Hu Min away.

Zhu Qiyu stretched his waist, ate something, and drank porridge again, his greed surged.

Without the mountain of Chen Xun, the crisis is temporarily lifted.

It's time to recruit cooks into the palace, cook a table of delicious food for me, and have a good meal.

No, no money!

Zhu Qiyu slapped his head and had to find a way to make money.

"My lord, Eunuch Zhang has arrived."

Zhu Qiyu let Zhang Yong in, he was walking in the hall, he got used to the smell of blood, he was really forced to come out.

Zhang Yong came in to salute, and said with tears in his eyes, "I made the emperor suffer."

"What did I suffer? Today I killed Chen Xun, and I feel happy. I will be the real emperor in a short time!"

Zhu Qiyu asked him to get up: "Isn't it hard to live in the Supervisor of Rituals?"

"Alright."

Zhang Yong, the palm print eunuch, literally means, palm print, don't talk, and is responsible for stamping.

"Hahaha, look at your bitter face, it won't be long, the supervisor of rituals is up to you!" Zhu Qiyu laughed.

Zhang Yong boasted a few words, and said with some concern: "My lord, this servant has an illusion that I don't know if I should say it or not."

"Say, what can't you tell me?"

"During the days of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, the servants had the illusion that even if you killed all the eunuchs of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, the Supervisor of Ceremonies would still be a running dog of the cabinet." Zhang Yongdao.

Zhu Qiyu was surprised.

"My lord, this is just the feeling of a slave."

"You mean: the chief inspector is a vassal of the cabinet?"

Zhang Yong nodded.

"Just keep watching carefully, Zhang Yong, you have to be ready at any time to completely take over the supervisor of rites and hold the power of the supervisor of ceremonies in your own hands. Can you do it?" Zhu Qiyu stared at him.

"Slaves will live up to their holy orders!" Zhang Yong knelt on the ground.

"Get up, tell me, what did I get for killing Chen Xun?" Zhu Qiyu was examining him.

"Return to the emperor."

Zhang Yong said slowly: "The emperor killed Chen Xun and put his hand into the cabinet. You appointed Lin Cong as the chief assistant of the cabinet, changed the way of power distribution in the cabinet, and let Xue Xuan join the cabinet and intervene in the bureaucracy. The official position of the Ministry of Officials attracts courtiers to serve you."

"Chen Xun's right to minister is back in your hands."

"And you reused the Secretary of General Administration, set up a military aircraft department, and held the imperial power in your hands."

"What you need now is time. Cultivate enough party members and insert them in. The court will be in your hands, and you will completely control the imperial power!"

Zhu Qiyu looked at Zhang Yong in surprise: "There is progress, Zhang Yong!"

"I dare not accept the emperor's praise."

Zhang Yong scratched his hair in embarrassment, and said falteringly: "Actually, this is not what I thought of. I promoted a young eunuch, and he gave me an idea."

"Oh? What's your name? Did you bring it?" Zhu Qiyu became interested.

"I'm waiting outside. I want the emperor to hold my eyes." Zhang Yong's loyalty to Zhu Qiyu is unquestionable.

He didn't dare to reuse the young eunuch directly, he had to seek the emperor's consent.

"Xuan come in."

Soon, a very young eunuch knelt on the ground: "Slave Liang Fang, I respectfully greet Sheng An!"

Liang Fang?

It was him.

"It's Zhang Yong you mentioned?" Zhu Qiyu asked him.

"The servant did not dare to mention the godfather, the servant just said something indiscriminately, it was all thought of by the godfather himself!"

Liang Fang didn't dare to take the credit, and even called him a more intimate name, godfather, instead of Da Pang.

Zhu Qiyu was amused: "I will flatter you, Zhang Yong, you are only so old, so you accepted your godson?"

"Your servant dare not lie to the emperor. If you accept your godson, you accept your godson. If the emperor is not satisfied, your servant will drive him out of the house!" Zhang Yong knelt on the ground and answered honestly.

"Get up, take it away." Zhu Qiyu said lightly.

Zhang Yongsuan has figured out the emperor's temperament. The emperor is not afraid of the eunuchs around him taking possession of him, but he must report anything. He must tell the emperor about everything!This is the emperor's desire to control!

"Thank you, Emperor." Zhang Yong and Liang Fang stood up.

"Liang Fang, tell me, what's the harm in killing Chen Xun?" Zhu Qiyu asked again.

"Slaves dare not speak." Liang Fang knelt down tremblingly.

"Say, I pardon you innocent."

Liang Fangcai said: "My lord, I'm afraid you will never win the heart of a civil servant."

"En?" Zhu Qiyu was taken aback.

Liang Fang was so frightened that she fell to the ground, Zhu Qiyu asked him to continue.

What Liang Fang meant was that Chen Xun was just the leader pushed by civil servants. If Chen Xun was killed, there would be Zhang Xun and Wang Xun, and they would continue to be killed.

"Then do you have a solution?" Zhu Qiyu became interested. This is a farsighted eunuch, no wonder he can leave a bad name for thousands of years.

"How dare a servant overtake the Son of Heaven..."

"Just say what you want, if you miss this opportunity, you will never have a bright future." Zhu Qiyu didn't want to listen to nonsense.

Liang Fang gritted her teeth and said, "This servant thinks that we should start with the imperial examination!"

This guy is ruthless enough!

Directly dig the roots of scholars!
What he meant was that the current courtiers don't want to be dogs, so they simply kill them all, and recruit a new group of courtiers who are willing to be dogs to the central government.

Then reform the imperial examination, and use the imperial examination to catch the faintness of civil servants.

The court naturally listened to the emperor, because those who were disobedient were turned into ashes, and officials who entered the officialdom through the imperial examination also had the consciousness of being a dog, so naturally they would not be very resistant.

"Is this what you thought?" Zhu Qiyu raised his eyelids and looked at the young eunuch seriously.

He looks more handsome, and he speaks with a male duck voice, and he is still childish, but he is a poisonous trick when he opens his mouth, so he is worth cultivating.

Liang Fang kowtowed respectfully: "It's what the servant girl thinks."

"Where did you serve before?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

"The maidservant was born in Neishutang, and later because she offended someone, she did rough work in the Imperial Horse Supervisor." Liang Fang's eyes were tense, he knew that the emperor was going to use him again.

"Neishutang is a good background. If you know some literature, you can serve Zhang Yong. You can join the ceremonial supervisor, handle some documents, and increase your knowledge." Zhu Qiyu said lightly.

"Thank you, my servant, for your promotion!" Liang Fang was extremely excited.

Entering the Supervisor of Ceremonies, you can reach the sky in one step.

"Okay, let's get back." Zhu Qiyu still wanted to observe Liang Fang, who did he belong to?Is it available?
After sending Liang Fang away, Zhu Qiyu looked at Zhang Yong: "Is he reliable?"

"The servant is still observing, but it should be reliable. When the servant saw him, he was doing rough work in the Yumajian, and no one wanted to see him." Zhang Yong replied.

"Keep your eyes open, look slowly, and don't let dirty things get in."

Zhu Qiyu glanced at Feng Xiao and the others again: "Especially those from Neishutang, they have to be scrutinized in detail, remember?"

Because it was civil servants who preached and taught eunuchs in Neishutang, Zhu Qiyu worried that those eunuchs studying in Neishutang would be easily bribed by civil officials.

"Slave obeys the order!" Zhang Yong knelt down and bowed.

"If there are those available in the ceremonial supervisor, you can also keep them. We also pick some credible eunuchs in the palace and fill them in the ceremonial supervisor. Don't be afraid that your subordinates will make mistakes. Loyalty is the most important thing."

Zhu Qiyu reminded Zhang Yong: "Also, think tanks charge a few more, don't listen to one person."

"You are loyal and honest, which is your advantage, but you are not cruel enough, and you are slow in doing things."

"So, I entrust you with the supervisor of ceremonies, and you can do one word, steady, and making no mistakes is a great achievement!"

"I understand!" Zhang Yong kowtowed.

"Zhang Yong, help me pay attention to one thing."

"How did Chen Xun manipulate the disaster in Shandong?"

"The disaster in Shandong is not simple behind it. I don't know how many people were involved in it. I reckon it is a shocking case."

"Observe slowly, don't act rashly, let alone reveal my words to anyone, I only believe you!"

"This matter is of great importance. We can only investigate it secretly, and we must not make a big show of it. Just pretend that nothing happened, understand?"

Zhu Qiyu didn't dare to investigate at all, or rather, he didn't dare to investigate blatantly.

In the court, manipulating the disaster in Shandong is definitely not something that one or two people can do. How many groups should be behind it?

But if I don't find out, how can I clean up the court?

"Slaves obey the orders!" Zhang Yong kept it in mind.

After sending Zhang Yong away, Zhu Qiyu let out a foul breath, and asked again: "Is there any news from Shu Liang?"

"Reporting to the emperor, not yet."

Zhu Qiyu breathed a sigh of relief, and paced back and forth in the hall.

"My lord, Chengqian Palace sent someone to ask if your lord is going to rest?" Qin Chang reported.

"Let the imperial concubine come to Qinzheng Hall... Forget it, let's go to Chengqian Palace."

Zhu Qiyu exhaled, Qinzheng Hall was too murderous, and the imperial concubine didn't like it.

On the imperial chariot, on the way to Chengqian Palace: "Where's Xu Gan?"

"Go back to the emperor, Mr. Xu has gone to Nangong."

It turned out to be a surprise for the Supreme Emperor.

Zhu Qiyu closed his eyes, Zhang Fu, who left the capital, was still able to make trouble in the capital, where are his henchmen hiding?

Why did Chen Xun hide Wang Ao and other criminals' family members?What's good?

Did Liku's treasure be stolen by Chen Xun, or by Zhang Fu?
"Did Lu Zhong send any memorials?" Zhu Qiyu asked again.

"Reporting to the emperor, not yet."

Zhu Qiyu pondered for a long while, and when the imperial chariot entered Chengqian Palace, he suddenly said: "King Xuan will come to see you tomorrow."

He decided to take the initiative, starting with the Secretary of General Administration.

Entered Chengqian Palace.

Tang Guifei prepared water to bathe the emperor.

Just as he was about to go to bed, Feng Xiao's voice came from outside the door: "Report to the emperor, King Yue, the inspector of Shandong Road, has arrived outside the palace gate and said he has something important to play!"

"Wang Yue is back?"

Zhu Qiyu sat up abruptly: "Why did you enter the palace in the middle of the night?"

"It is said that it has something to do with the Shandong disaster!"

"Open the gate of the palace and wait for me in Qinzheng Hall!" Zhu Qiyu was completely sleepless, and was worried about Shandong, and the people familiar with Shandong came back!
"Your Majesty, you must take care of the dragon's body." Concubine Tang Gui was worried.

"My concubine is worry-free, I'm paying attention, Wang Yue must know something when he came back from Shandong, otherwise he wouldn't knock on the palace gate late at night, he is a man of propriety, there must be something important."

Zhu Qiyu patted her hand, saw her sad face, and quickly comforted her: "Okay, give me an hour, half an hour, and I will be back! Just go to bed and never deal with political affairs again, okay?"

"Your Majesty, stop running back and forth. The concubine is going to the Palace of Qinzheng to serve His Majesty." Tang Guifei also put on her clothes and changed Zhu Qiyu's clothes.

"I've made my concubine tired." Zhu Qiyu patted her on the shoulder.

The imperial chariot entered the Qianqing Palace and stopped in front of the Qinzheng Hall.

Wang Yue knelt on the ground and respectfully greeted Sheng An.

"I'm safe!"

Zhu Qiyu entered the hall, Wang Yue followed behind.

He is not tall, but his face is tight, giving people a very stern impression, his eyes are even more fierce, his waist is straight, and he is meticulous.

"Wang Yue, what do you want to report?" Zhu Qiyu couldn't wait.

"Your Majesty, please be patient and listen carefully."

Wang Yue began to talk about Jingtai's entry into Shandong in the seventh year.

It ended with his arrival in the capital, but he described to Zhu Qiyu the real scene of Shandong in the past year in a concise and concise manner.

Shocking to say.

"What did you say? When you entered Beijing, you were assassinated?" Zhu Qiyu's eyes were as cold as ice.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, yes, shortly after leaving Shandong, I was assassinated twice. The first time was in the post station, and the second time was on the road!"

Wang Yue pointed to his legs: "The second time, when I was on the horse, the thief shot and killed me with a bow and crossbow. When I was dodging, I fell off the horse's back and hit my leg."

But Zhu Qiyu really didn't notice that there was something wrong with his legs.

"The minister is nothing more than pretending." Wang Yue didn't dare to lose his dignity in front of the king, and didn't dare to show the emperor his wounds.

"Ai Qing, there is no imperial doctor in the palace, and I can't ask the imperial doctor to heal your wounds. Besides, the disaster in Shandong has left me with so much money, I really can't give you any rewards, so I give you this jade pendant! This is my personal treasure." If Aiqing is in trouble, she can hold this jade pendant and enter the palace overnight!"

Zhu Qiyu took off the jade pendant he was wearing and handed it to Wang Yue.

"How dare I accept it?" Wang Yue knelt on the ground, surprised and delighted.

"Aiqing has an injury on her leg, so don't kneel."

Zhu Qiyu wants to accept Wang Yue's heart.

He helped Wang Yue up and let him sit down.

"Your Majesty's love makes me tearful!" Wang Yue shed tears.

"I plan to sell the imperial store and send all the money and food raised to Shandong. I hope the victims in Shandong can survive this time."

Wang Yue was even more moved. He was the only one who played the memorials about tooth shops and collapsed houses more than once.

Unexpectedly, the emperor would take out the imperial store to the victims at a critical moment.

"Ai Qing!"

"But I'm worried. I'm worried that someone will use the money. I'm worried that the money won't reach the victims!"

"You are a talented person, and you have experienced the place for a long time. You should understand that if the victims of the disaster cannot eat, they will rise up. The victims, refugees, and rebels will all make trouble in Shandong. The trouble will never end. I am afraid it will become another Huguang. ah."

"Now that Xuanzhen is at war, and Huguang is suppressing the rebellion, the world can't stand the toss, and Daming can't stand the toss either."

Seeing that Wang Yue was about to speak, Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "Aiqing, you are from Shandong and know a lot about Shandong, so I want you to supervise, and I promote you as the right deputy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The court supervises the distribution of disaster relief funds."

"Wang Yue, can I trust you?"

Stared at by the emperor, Wang Yue knelt on the ground: "The heart of the minister is worthy of heaven and earth! Your majesty entrusts the burden to the minister, and the minister will go through fire and water to repay your majesty's kindness!"

"it is good!"

Zhu Qiyu helped him up: "I originally planned to keep you in the capital, but now Shandong is more chaotic. If Shandong is safe, the world will be safe. I will hand Shandong over to you!"

"I know that when you go to Shandong, someone will pour dirty water on you, slander you and your family! But don't be afraid! I will support you!"

"My edict has been issued, and whoever touches my money will be punished by the nine clans!"

"It's the same with you, you are the person I sent, whoever touches you, I will kill anyone!"

"Remember, I am behind you!"

"As long as you do good for the victims and make Shandong stable, I will support you!"

Wang Yue was so grateful that he wanted to bow down again.

He worked tirelessly, just waiting for this day.

The emperor is different from what the rumors say, the emperor really wants to do something!
He doesn't know much about the struggles in the court, and he probably doesn't have time to understand now.

"Your Majesty, I thank you for your kindness!" Wang Yue bowed to the ground.

"No need to thank you, I haven't finished my words yet!"

"The situation you said is indeed shocking. I believe it, but I can't move it. Do you understand?"

Zhu Qiyu sighed, and directly burned the memorial that Wang Yue handed over: "The disaster in Shandong is like a fire, and I don't have time to deal with these trivial matters."

"But it's definitely not indulgence. If these people are involved in the disaster, they will do it again!"

"I will calculate the old and new accounts together, double the calculation!"

"Wang Yue, I hand over Shandong to you!"

Zhu Qiyu grabbed his hand!

As soon as Wang Yue entered Beijing, he was about to leave Beijing.

Wang Yue is probably the only one who is familiar with Shandong in the court and is trustworthy.

Judging from the memorial submitted by Wang Yue, it can be said that the officialdom in Shandong is already rotten, but for the time being, we must bear with it and deal with the disaster well, and then talk about other things.

"I will live up to your majesty's trust!" Wang Yue knelt down on the ground.

"I give you the Sword of Heaven and give you the power of expediency!"

Wang Yue's eyes widened. Isn't this an imperial envoy?

The emperor gave him the Tianzi Sword and gave him the power of expediency, which meant that he could kill officials in Shandong at will!

But he is not the emperor's man!
Why did the emperor trust him so much?
"Wang Yue, you are not the only one who is in charge of Shandong. I will also send people from Beijing Central Censor, Patrol Envoy, Dongchang, Jinyiwei and Tiqi to make unannounced visits."

Zhu Qiyu's eyes were sharp: "I hope that you can stick to your heart and never have any thoughts that you shouldn't have!"

"I dare not!"

On the contrary, Wang Yue breathed a sigh of relief.

If the emperor really gave him so much power, it would be a disaster rather than a blessing.

"Tomorrow you will write another memorial and submit it to the cabinet."

When Zhu Qiyu regained the imperial power, he had to play within the framework of the rules. If he crossed the cabinet in everything, his lackeys Lin Cong and Wang Wen would also have two hearts.

"The minister leads the order!"

After Wang Yue thanked him, he knelt down and left the Hall of Qinzheng.

Zhu Qiyu's eyes were gloomy, Shandong is really rotten, ten times and a hundred times worse than imagined, and the Kong family is no longer the emperor of the earth!
Are you still using the Yuan Dynasty to mark the year?hehe!
But I miss the previous dynasty, it seems that I am not blessed to endure this Beikong!You should go to the grassland and kneel down to worship your Great Yuan Emperor, first?

If you die first, you should also follow!
Living in the world, being unfaithful to Daming, is being loyal to Dayuan?

Zhu Qiyu's eyes were as sharp as a knife.
