Ming Dynasty, starting from the empty seal case

Chapter 86 Zhu Yuanzhang’s real purpose! ! ! (-in-)!
  At this time, the sun was hanging diagonally in the east and crowds gathered. After the arrival of the imperial edict, the atmosphere finally reached its peak!

"Haha, I still alarmed the Holy One!"

"I knew that His Majesty was aware of the sentiments of the people. In this Ming Dynasty, no one can deceive His Majesty!"

"Eradicate the traitor! Release Su Tiju!"

"Release Su Tiju..."

The voices gathered into a torrent, while Su Xian looked down, secretly thinking that this edict was really timely.

Chang Mao smacked his lips. He was one of the people who knew the inside story.

When I was about to say something.

Suddenly, a voice sounded from the crowd.

"The imperial court set up a treasure bank transfer department, but restricted the exchange. It must be because of treacherous ministers. This time Su Tiju was unfortunately involved, but the most fundamental problem has not been solved!"

"No matter what, treasure banknotes can be issued and exchanged... freely exchangeable!"

This sound seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and it sounded at this moment...

This time.

The reason why the people were attracted to come here was because Su Guiyuan forcibly opened the bank, which led to the frame-up of "treacherous ministers in the court" and his son's complaint...

More importantly, isn’t this something that concerns oneself?

At the end of the day, as soon as these words came out, the entire crowd was even more excited than before.

"Yes! The treasure banknotes can be freely exchanged!"

"Free exchange!"

All the students from Guozixue were so excited that they raised their hands and howled as if they had been given chicken blood.

All the veterans also shouted with tears in their eyes!

The sound was so loud that it seemed like it was going to overturn the entire prefect's mansion!
  "Boy, we should have completed this mission now, right?"

"It seems that transcendence has been completed." Su Xian also nodded.

Chang Mao on the side also asked suspiciously: "How can this student from the Guozixue come here? Is it really popular to dare to fall in love? There are people even in the Guozixue who are helping me?"

"Also, I, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, are conscientious after all. After accepting your father's love, I will speak for your father."

Su Xian nodded and said immediately, "It's time to wait for the news now, right?"

……

The other side of the crowd.

Zhang Guance and the other two people originally watched this scene expectantly. However, for some reason, things seemed to develop beyond their expectations.

Guo Hanwen, who was already worried, was already a little panicked now.

"No! That's not right, Toneri! This thing seems to be different from what we thought."

"What did the imperial edict say just now?"

"Thieves who harm the people, shouldn't they be rebellious ministers who deceive people's hearts?"

After all, he was a teacher, so he picked up the right word instantly.

A hint of worry began to appear in his eyes, and then it became more intense.

Zhang Guance also looked ahead in astonishment.

Sudden! Before he could speak.

"Who... were the ones who escorted Su Guiyuan to the prefect's office?"

At this moment, a figure had already approached the three of them.

Zhang Guance turned his head suddenly, and when he saw the person coming, especially the familiar and frightening flash of black, his body immediately trembled like chaff.

What did this scene remind him of? But what followed was unspeakable horror!

impossible!
  It's impossible!

Wouldn't the Holy One deal with Su Guiyuan? Doesn't he know that once the Daxing treasure banknotes are exchanged, the court will not have that much silver at all?

He even knew that the treasure banknote prosecution department would have to spend an additional two million banknotes this year due to losses after the "empty seal case"!

His Majesty!

Don’t you want your own money?

However, he was thinking in his heart.

"take away!"

Someone was already waving quietly next to him, and several figures appeared in the crowd at some point, taking the three of them away in an instant...

……

at the same time.

The back hall of the government office.

The prefect, Lin Yide, had already hurriedly put on his official uniform. With the arrival of this imperial edict, he felt that the cold weather in the past two days had completely recovered.

He hurriedly walked from the backyard to the main hall, and immediately said in a hurry:
  "The Third Division is interrogating, take Su Guiyuan out quickly and send him to Dali Temple!"

After finishing speaking, he even set out in person and called the magistrate of the government office to take the servants to take Su Guiyuan out of the prison first.

At this moment, the judge looked horrified. Fortunately, he obeyed the prefect's arrangements and did not interrogate him forcefully, nor torture him before the officials stripped him of his official body.

When several people saw Su Guiyuan again.

But I found that his face was calm, and there was no trace of panic at all even though it was just an eighth-grade promotion.

"I heard that Su Tiju even sat in the imperial prison of the pro-military governor's mansion earlier. The prison of my palace seems like a small household. Let's go and take Su Tiju to Dali Temple!"

"His Majesty's decree, the three divisions will review it!"

After the prefect Lin Yide finished speaking, he should open the way first.

Su Guiyuan's body trembled, and his face turned full of anxiety. Could his case also be involved in the "three-division trial"?

Before he could recover, he was taken away by two guards.

A large group of people walked straight out of the government office gate and headed to Dali Temple.

Seeing the crowd gathering outside, Lin Yide couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. Fortunately, he had enough experience in officialdom, otherwise this scene would have caused a big mess.

Su Guiyuan, on the other hand, was in a daze.

Because I saw him coming out...

"Su Tiju! That's Su Tiju!"

"He is a good official. He is the first to dare to expose the illegal activities of Baochao Division. He has an upright personality! He is not afraid of power! He also thinks about the people."

"After being imprisoned for several days, Su Tiju's face remained unchanged. This shows that he has justice in his heart and is not afraid of thousands of punishments!"

"The ministers of the Ming Dynasty should learn from Su Tiju."

Suddenly, the voices of praise from the people came towards him. While Su Guiyuan was still feeling uneasy, his face was full of astonishment!
  During this period...what happened in the capital?
  Why is this treatment different from what I imagined?
  As he went to Dali Temple, the people behind him followed him closely like a long dragon.

During this period, Su Guiyuan himself could not bear the various words of praise.

at last.

The gate of Dali Temple has already been opened.

Seeing Su Guiyuan coming.

He then said to Su Guiyuan:

"The Holy One was shocked to hear this and was furious in Jinshen Palace!"

"He once said: I established the Treasure Bank Collection Department for two years. I wanted to seek welfare for the people, but I didn't expect that in just two years, there would be such a major hidden secret!"

Su Guiyuan looked at the man in front of him. He recognized it. He seemed to be some young minister from Dali Temple, whose scenery he had admired from afar.

But now... what makes Su Guiyuan confused again.

Although the other party was speaking to himself, his voice was loud enough to be called hoarse.

As he spoke, his eyes were still looking at the people.

"Don't worry, everyone!"

"This time the Holy Emperor is angry with the thunder. Not only is the three divisions interrogating! He has also asked His Highness the Crown Prince to personally sit in charge. It is bound to find out the arrogance of the treasure bank transfer division!"

"After that, some illegal actions in the past two years must be corrected immediately!"

"Under the bright sun and moon of my great tomorrow, I will make sure that the corrupt officials who deceive the Holy One and exploit the people will have no way to hide!"

"The reason why the Holy One did not issue an order immediately during this period is that he was conducting a secret investigation. I will tell you the truth. Please wait here. Even if we stay up all night, we must get to the bottom of this matter of the treasure banknote!"

below.

The people were moved after hearing this, "The Holy One is wise! The Holy One is wise!"

"call!"

Seeing this scene, the young minister of Dali Temple, Zhao Ting, finally took a breath. After shouting these words, his face turned a little red, and he immediately looked at Su Guiyuan.

"Su Tiju, please come in."

Seeing this scene, Su Guiyuan was stunned again.

What's going on here?

Unexpectedly, when he entered Dali Temple, he was originally going to come to the main hall and wait for interrogation.

But I didn't expect to just wait in the side hall.

The so-called joint trial of the three departments does not seem to be interrogating oneself?

……

Miyagi!

Please stay in the palace.

Mao Xiang hurried in from outside from time to time, bringing some news.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao kept listening.

"It's strange. You mean the students of Guozixue and the old soldiers were actually called here by Dr. Guo... or something?"

Mao Xiang nodded quickly, "Reporting to Your Majesty, Guo Hanwen has indeed been doing his best to promote it these days."

"Even Cui Jin, the deputy director of the Baochao Office, sent people out to promote..."

"Oh?" Even Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard the news.

It took him a long time to react.

"This is really rare... Biao'er, we have seen people digging graves for others. This is the first time we have seen people digging their own graves, digging so vigorously."

Zhu Biao couldn't help but smile.

"Okay, it's time for you to leave."

"Then Su Xian'er is really a genius. With this incident, he not only wiped out the bad debts of the past two years, but also took advantage of this to get out of the bank!"

"When you declare the decree, be careful... the money bank will be completed once it is completed!"

"After that, we still have a lot of fighting to do with Baiguan."

Of course Zhu Biao knew what he was referring to.

This time, it is a "money bank" where the royal family cooperates with nobles.

In this regard, my father also put a lot of thought into it. He could be noble and wealthy, but he could not be allowed to control the bank.

The bank, as a sharp weapon, must be firmly held in the hands of the royal family.

An order has even been issued...

The first attempt should be made after Deng Yu conquered Tubo.

Let's see if what Su Xian said is feasible.

Of course, the army has just set off, and whether it will win or not is still a matter of debate, but Zhu Yuanzhang is full of confidence.

It is necessary to pave all the roads first after his victory.

Once it really works!
  So……

Can what Su Xian proposed be imitated in the northern grasslands in the future?
  Thinking of this possibility, he himself was a little excited.

But this happened a long time later.

Maybe these things will be left to Biao'er, or even Xiongying and the others.

After all, compared to the Tubo forces, Beiyuan is more like an unbeatable and inexhaustible beast!
  Even if the main force is killed, there will still be an endless supply of men from various grassland tribes...

After more than ten years, we can make a comeback!

It can be said to be a worry!

Therefore, Tubo’s attempt this time is crucial.

And this is the case with foreign aggression.

Internal worries are even more important to watch out for.

After all, once the six ministries of the country and dynasty hear about the bank affairs, there will definitely be a wave of opposition.

Especially in the prosperous Southeast, I don't know what kind of trouble is going to happen.

But now that he has decided, Zhu Yuanzhang will not retreat.

"Go!"

"Yes!"

Zhu Biao bowed, then took the imperial edict and headed to Dali Temple.

And Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Biao's leaving figure.

Something suddenly occurred to me.

Smiling slowly, he looked in the direction of the King's Pavilion with deep thought in his eyes...

"It's time!" he whispered.

"But this boy has allowed us to kill two birds with one stone again!"

……

In front of Dali Temple.

The people waited from morning to afternoon, and from afternoon to evening.

Even the sun has set and the moon has appeared.

And at this time when the sun and the moon coexist.

at last……

The door of Dali Temple slowly opened.

Su Guiyuan was the first to come out. There were no shackles on his hands and he was free!
  Seeing him, the people immediately cheered, "Su Tiju!"

However, Su Guiyuan himself was confused at this time.

He drank tea all afternoon in the side hall of Dali Temple and was not interrogated at all.

Just as he was doubting, he saw the other side.

A familiar figure was waving towards him.

"Xian'er!"

He shouted, and felt the previous pressure dissipate instantly and silently.

But before he could move his steps.

suddenly!

Two rows of figures in black armor swept out from the side entrance of Dali Temple, and soon surrounded the entire area!

"His Royal Highness is here!"

With a loud shout, everyone was shocked.

Prince Zhu Biao, wearing a Yishan crown and a Gun dragon robe, strode out of Dali Temple.

His face was peaceful, but his eyes seemed to contain anger as he glanced around. When he came to the entrance of Dali Temple and stood still, he felt an invisible majesty in everyone's eyes!
  Everyone worships!

"I'm so ashamed!"

"I'm sorry to the people!"

Unexpectedly, Zhu Biao bowed his hands in front of everyone, and immediately he was filled with grief and anger, which seemed to reach the ears of the entire people at this moment.

Everyone shifted their gazes and focused away.

Many people even had shocked expressions and tears in their eyes.

"The convenience of banknotes is already a consensus among the previous administration!"

"In today's world, although the officials of Ming Dynasty work hard to govern the people, bandits are still rampant in the poor mountains and rivers, and thieves are rampant! Money is heavy, and if you leak any money, you have to worry about being stolen!"

"Therefore, the original intention of my father to open the treasure banknote collection department was to facilitate the daily life of the people. He specially used banknotes to replace copper coins and silver for transactions!"

now.

Zhu Slogan was indignant, even with a sense of self-blame, "When it was first established, the banknote bureau was responsible for issuing, the banknote printing bureau was responsible for printing banknotes, the banknote treasury was for storage, and the banknote treasury was for exchanging!"

"This is the basics!"

"However, there are treacherous ministers in the court, and there are also thieves in the treasure collection department! As a result, we have ended up where we are today."

"If it weren't for the new appointment, this inside story would be revealed..."

As he spoke, Zhu Biao seemed to feel more and more ashamed.

"Father, Xu Gu's responsibility to supervise the country has only been taken seriously before. He is ashamed of the people and his father!"

"It doesn't matter...it's a mistake that needs to be corrected. Since ancient times, it's better to be a wise king!"

"The guilty officials will also be punished!"

As the chilling words fell.

Swish!
  As he spoke, Zhu Biao suddenly unfolded the object in his hand, and it was an imperial edict!
  "Father, I have heard about the old incident of Bao Chao's examination, which is shocking! I won't mention the old incident again. From now on..."

"Many previous laws and regulations must be revised!"

"1. If treasure banknotes can be printed and issued, they can be exchanged! From now on, they cannot embarrass the people! If they do, they will be severely punished!"

The words fell.

The noisy crowd suddenly fell silent!
  You know, this is what they have been doing these days!
  But I didn't expect that His Majesty would be so decisive? It can be said to be vigorous and resolute!
  "2. Baozhao and Hongwu Tongbao are both official exchange coins of the Ming Dynasty. Since then, in order to ensure smooth transactions, the price of Baozhao and grain has always been one yuan, two shi of grain! This is the law! Regardless of famine or disaster, if there is any violation , they will all be executed!”

"If civilians find out, they can immediately take them to the government. If the government does not punish them, we will treat them equally and kill them all!"

Swish!
  As soon as these words came out.

The atmosphere became more and more silent. One stone of rice weighed about one hundred and fifty kilograms, enough to feed a family of four for a month.

In other words, a regular amount of money can last for two months?

Has Your Majesty made this an iron rule?
  Before the people could think about it, Zhu Biao's voice sounded again.

"3. Private trading of gold and silver was previously prohibited! I believe that gold and silver are not trading coins recognized by the imperial court. There are many fake gold and silver in the market. Governments across the country report more than 10,000 similar cases every year!"

"It was originally intended for the people! But it turned out to be self-defeating! After that, the government designated gold and silver as commodities such as silk and cloth, which could rise or fall depending on the market price.

“Treasure money can buy gold and silver!”

"But... gold and silver are prohibited from purchasing all goods, and the government no longer considers gold and silver as money!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd was in an uproar again.

But Zhu Biao didn't give everyone time to think.

The last words were heard again.

"I have thought twice about this disaster. Fortunately, I was reminded by Qilin'er who praised me on the Kongyin case... and was inspired by his play with the emperor, Xiongying, and the children of the main hall..."

"To facilitate ordinary private transactions and exchanges! From then on, the Banknote Collection Department not only printed and issued banknotes..."

"Expand the bank's treasury, set up banks under its subsidiaries, and distribute them to various provinces in the Ming Dynasty!"

"Allow the common people to buy and sell freely with treasure money!"

"You can also use silk, gold and silver and other goods to come to the bank to exchange for treasures!"

"Every province in the Ming Dynasty should do the same!"

"Appreciate this!"

Wow!
  The last decree appeared.

The people here have fallen into complete silence.

Maybe there is too much information, or even too much information that people cannot analyze for a while and can only imagine it in their minds!

Zhu Biao closed the imperial edict and immediately looked at everyone.

"The regulations promulgated today will be posted by the government in every prefecture and county from now on, and the government will send people to help the people understand it!"

"This move sets a precedent for my father and seeks welfare for the people!"

"If there are people who want to exchange old banknotes or demonetized banknotes, they can go to the bank bank or the bank that will be opened later to exchange them!"

"In addition... the people have a lot of confusion about banknotes, and I will focus on this matter from now on!"

"There will be no mercy on problems such as banknote material issues and anti-counterfeiting issues, including those found to be counterfeiting, exchanging fakes for genuine ones, etc., and everyone should be severely punished!"

The words fell.

Although everyone is overwhelmed by too much information.

But they all understand one thing, that is, treasure banknotes can be exchanged!
  Instantaneous time.

A group of old soldiers were the first to shout: "Holy Majesty, Holy Mandate! The Crown Prince is virtuous!"

In the blink of an eye, the crowd was already chanting...

……

At this time, Su Xian in the crowd was filled with astonishment when he heard this.

Because there is something I have said before.

But there are also things that His Majesty has changed.

For example, banks are actually classified under "Xingyongku".

Then this treasure banknote raising ceremony...

……

at the same time.

Just when Zhu Biao read the imperial edict to the people.

Zhongshu Province.

There is also an imperial edict!
  The two prime ministers are already there, and the six chief officials of the country and dynasty have already heard the news and gathered here one after another!
  "Your Majesty took out the banknotes from the royal treasury and established a bank with the nobles!"

"This matter...this matter is absolutely unacceptable!"

The new Minister of Household Affairs, Li Wentai, looked livid when he saw the edict in front of him that had not yet been issued!

"I have six departments and the Prime Minister your Zhongshu Province, or is it not the imperial court of the Ming Dynasty?"

"How can this bank matter be planned by His Majesty and Your Majesty?"

All the officials frowned.

They had already heard about what happened today, and they even came here just for this reason.

"I also heard..." Wang Min, the Minister of Personnel Affairs, couldn't help but look at the crowd and said in a strange tone:

"This time, it was your Majesty who decided this matter after hearing about the previous Qilinzi?"

As soon as these words came out.

Everyone had obviously heard this and had strange expressions on their faces.

This is what they came for today! Prepare to work together with the Prime Minister to go to the Wenhua Palace together to ask the Holy One to take back his life!

However, I didn’t expect that your Majesty would do his own thing!

They did not discuss such a big matter with their ministers, and just went ahead and even announced it to the people!
  "How can your Majesty listen to the arrogance of a child?"

"What can a little boy say?"

"Your Majesty is gambling with your life with precious money! If something happens to the people, who will clean up this mess in the future? Do you have to leave it to the Prime Minister again?"

"How can state affairs be such a child's play!"

As soon as these words came out.

Some of the officials did not dare to speak, and some did not speak.

Instead, Hu Weiyong stood up helplessly.

He first looked at the right prime minister, Wang Guangyang, who seemed to be asleep.

"Right Chancellor, what do you have to say?"

Wang Guangyang was a courtier at the same time as Li Shanchang and a founding hero. He was over sixty years old.

Compared with the other party, Hu Weiyong is still relatively young.

Of course you have to do more!
  Sure enough, Wang Guangyang raised his head and rubbed his tired old eyes, "Huh? What are you talking about? I'm talking about you, I listen...listen..."

As he spoke, the snoring sounded again!
  Chen Ning, the censor doctor, couldn't help but feel annoyed when he saw this!

This old man can't bear any responsibility at the critical moment, and he is so exhausted that he looks like a fool!
  "That's it!"

Hu Weiyong was not annoyed, but smiled slightly.

"This matter is not as simple as you think."

"As Wang Shangshu said, how can a little boy have so much say?"

"But... His Majesty just happened to have something to do, and he just happened to be able to take advantage of it this time."

"Ah? What? Please tell me, Mr. Hu!" Everyone was puzzled.

Li Wentai, the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs, couldn't help but interjected: "But don't worry, Prime Minister, His Majesty actually decided on the Four Ministries. This bank is to support merchants. How can it be so easy to establish? What's more, we can't change the opinions of the Holy One, but the people can!" "

"When the time comes and the people are dissatisfied and the sky is angry, you and I will try to persuade His Majesty!"

"I'm afraid it will be too late by then." Hu Weiyong said calmly: "Listen to me first."

talking.

Hu Weiyong looked at everyone.

But the words are not surprising and they will continue to die.

"If I try to persuade His Majesty at that time, the day lily will be cold."

"You don't even know what your Majesty's ultimate goal is..."

"It's the same thing again. Even if His Majesty approves of a child, how can he make a decision so easily?"

While talking.

Facing the increasingly puzzled looks of everyone, Hu Weiyong picked up the teacup on the table.

Put one down first!
  He pointed at it and said: "This is the honorable person who participated in this event!"

He picked up another one and put it down again, "This is military power!"

Picking up another one... "This is financial power!"

As soon as these two words came out, the entire palace fell into silence!
  "Can't you see it yet?"

Hu Weiyong said, pointing to the teapot and said: "Now the longest among the kings, King Qin will take over the vassal!"

"His Majesty decided on the Prince Fu's Mansion and the King's Prime Minister's Mansion in the eighth year of Hongwu!"

"what is this?"

Everyone was shocked, but they already remembered something from the past!
  Hu Weiyong's words have completely fallen!

"This is enfeoffment!"

"A king has a king's Fu and a king's prime minister?"

"Wang Fu is in charge of military power, and Wang Xiang is in charge of political affairs?"

"Is this still me, Da Ming?"

“It’s Dazhou!”

Suddenly, the faces of the officials here became more and more frightened!

"Don't you understand?" Hu Weiyong shouted sharply.

But now.

Even Wang Guangyang opened his eyes and sighed slowly!

"Your Majesty is going to imitate the ancient times!"

"Exchange wealth and power for noble military power!"

"Let your sons, that is, the kings, gradually establish vassals and enfeoff various places!"

"In comparison, the bank this time... is a trivial matter!"

Hu Weiyong took a deep breath and couldn't help but shouted with a melancholy face: "Because...it's because of..."

"The kings are enfeoffing and making way!"

　Two-in-one issued.

　　This chapter is difficult to write and cannot be separated, so I put it together.
