After Fu Youde left Beijing, Zhu Yunwen thought carefully for a few days before he understood Zhu Yuanzhang's intentions, and couldn't help but sigh at the hardness of the old emperor's heart, and really responded to the sentence: "Longyan has no grace", but he was powerless to stop it. So he just went to the Qianqing Palace to ask the old emperor for Fu Youde's third son, Fu Rang, and the old emperor glanced at him and agreed.

After chatting with Fu Rang, Zhu Yunwen found that Fu Rang was extremely simple and scheming, and he didn't realize Fu Youde's intentions at all, and even was a little unwilling to be transferred out of the pro-army by Zhu Yunwen, and finally Zhu Yunwen sent him out with a wry smile, as for how to arrange him, he hasn't thought about it yet, let's arrange to be a guard in Duanben Palace first, at least his martial arts are still good.

When Fu Youde arrived in Beiping, he received a letter from Fu Rang, and after seeing the content of the letter, Fu Youde put down the stone in his heart and replied to him to be loyal to the emperor's grandson and not to live up to the name of loyalty and righteousness of the Fu family.

Now that King Ning's situation is unknown, Feng Sheng, Fu Youde and others have rushed to the side, and Zhu Yunwen has nothing to do even if he is in a hurry, so he can only wait with peace of mind.

Duanben Palace, the dormitory of the princess.

The eunuch at the door was just about to give a salute, but Zhu Yunwen "shh Then he lifted the curtain and walked in. Zhu Yunwen heard some sound of water, turned the screen, and found that a large wooden barrel was placed in the middle of the hall, and the barrel was full of rose petals, Qiu Ju was serving Ma Hui to bathe, and the room was steaming and cloudy. Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but move in her heart, quietly paced over, and found Ma Hui sitting in the bucket with her eyes closed, her head leaning against the wall of the bucket, and Qiu Ju was massaging her head. Qiu Ju pressed and said, "Miss, is it okay to be strong?" Is it sore here? ”

Ma Hui closed her eyes and groaned: "Well, it's good, it's a little sour here, and a little to the right, well, it's here, well, yes, Qiu Ju, your skills have grown." ”

Zhu Yunwen looked at his concubine, Ma Hui closed her eyes, straightened her nose and opened her mouth slightly, her slightly pointed chin was slightly raised, revealing a neck as white as a swan, and with even breathing, her plump breasts loomed, and Zhu Yunwen's breathing couldn't help but be a little short.

At this moment, Qiu Ju found Zhu Yunwen and couldn't help screaming: "Your Highness, you, why are you here?" ”

Ma Hui opened her lazy eyes and found that Zhu Yunwen was looking at her, and subconsciously wanted to stand up, but she forgot that she was taking a bath, and suddenly exposed her infinitely beautiful upper body to the water, but she immediately realized it again, "Ah", hugged her chest and retracted into the water: "Your Highness, Your Highness, why are you here?" Get out, get out, concubine ......."

Seeing Ma Hui's frightened appearance like a deer, Zhu Yunwen walked over gently, pushed Qiu Ju away, held Ma Hui's head, and said, "Concubine Ai, how about giving you a massage?" ”

Ma Hui didn't know what to do: "Your Highness, Your Highness ......"

Zhu Yunwen massaged twice, then hugged Ma Hui out, and Ma Hui couldn't resist and put it on the bed......

After the clouds and rain, Ma Hui lay in Zhu Yunwen's arms and said angrily: "Your Highness, I am really ashamed, I was known by the eunuchs and palace maids outside, and the concubines couldn't see people." ”

Zhu Yunwen said lazily: "Lone is the prince of the Ming Dynasty, you are Lone's beloved concubine, this is all for the Ming Dynasty's Jiangshan Sheji, who dares to chew the root of the tongue, unless you don't want to live." ”

Ma Hui chuckled: "What are you talking about, don't be said to be a prostitute of His Royal Highness, so that the concubines will die and cannot be redeemed." ”

Zhu Yunwen also smiled: "Liu'er, you are the only concubine, if you don't do this, who will inherit the Ming Dynasty in the future." ”

"No, Your Highness will have more concubines in the future, I'm afraid that I will forget Liu'er in the future."

"No, loneliness is not a merciless person."

"Hmm," said Ma Hui suddenly stopped talking.

"What's wrong?"

"Your Highness, it has been two months since the concubine entered the palace, and she is not pregnant yet, and the concubine has asked several times."

Zhu Yunwen smiled and said: "It's only been two months, but I feel that I can definitely do it this time." ”

"Huh?" Ma Hui crossed his arms and looked at Zhu Yunwen: "How does His Highness know?" ”

"Hehe," Zhu Yunwen hugged Ma Hui and said, "Because I feel lonely." ”

......

After a long time, Zhu Yunwen and Ma Hui got up and put on their nightgowns, and Ma Hui continued to snuggle in Zhu Yunwen's arms.

"Liu'er, have you been tired lately?"

"One thing, recently, the concubines often go to the weaving workshop to inspect, and they also go to the Bai family's sister to help."

Zhu Yunwen was silent for a moment and said, "Is there anything new?" ”

"It's all okay, although there are some rumors, but the weaving workshop has basically stabilized, the loan from the Bank of Communications has been in place, the workshop is being rebuilt, the workers and owners of the workshop are more satisfied, and they all praise His Royal Highness for his kindness."

"As for the sister of the Bai family, it's okay, now there are more and more looms, and the concubines have introduced some court wives to the past, as new shareholders, there is no problem with the funds at present. The sister of the Bai family is really powerful, divides these female workers, picks them out skillfully, and arranges to make some high-end fabrics and embroidery, mainly for some rich families; Other weavers are also graded and paid according to the amount of yarn and weaving produced, and the workshop is now well managed. In addition, there are no children in the kindergarten, and there are many elderly people in the nursing home, but they regard it as their home, and live in it with their children. Security over there is now good. Speaking of this, Ma Hui couldn't help laughing.

Zhu Yunwen also smiled: "It seems that I take it for granted, let the workshop build more houses for the weavers, you can rent them to the workers, or you can sell them in installments, and the kindergartens and nursing homes will maintain the status quo." ”

"Installments?"

"Well, for example, for a house of ten taels of silver, we can ask the weaver to pay in twenty years, according to the interest rate of five percent, about one tael of silver a year, and eight cents of silver every month."

"Ah," Ma Hui's eyes lit up, and said, "This method is good, but twenty years is too long, or ten years." ”

"Well, you can do it, but this can be cooperated with the Bank of Communications, otherwise your financial pressure will be too great."

After Ma Hui figured out the meaning of installment payment, she didn't want to cooperate with the Bank of Communications, she felt that it didn't cost much to build a house, and the workshop could afford it, that is, she attracted the weavers and charged interest, so why not.

Zhu Yunwen didn't force it, but remembered the days when he was a house slave in his previous life, and installment payments would actually push up house prices. When someone discovers this secret, new capitalists will appear, but there are also benefits, and their own banks can develop greatly.

Zhu Yunwen suddenly remembered something, hugged Ma Hui tightly, and said, "Liu'er, the imperial court is currently debating whether to ban the loom, you know." ”

"This is the government, and the concubines dare not speak."

Zhu Yunwen smiled and said, "Didn't you talk about the workshop just now?" What's going on now? ”

"Your Highness," Ma Hui said angrily, and couldn't help but twist her body.

"It's okay, Lone just thinks you have a certain amount of research on the workshop, so I asked for your opinion."

Ma Hui thought for a while and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, the concubines feel that now it is mainly the controversy between the rich families of Songjiang, the old bureaucrats and His Royal Highness, the old bureaucrats are just following the trend, the main problem is that the rich families in Songjiang do not have new looms, and His Royal Highness has restricted their access to looms with the patent law, so they are lagging behind Jingshi and Suzhou, because this affects their wealth, so they will react so fiercely." ”

"The concubine felt that His Highness did not invent the new loom to make money, so why not give up the patent and let them make it themselves? So that they naturally do not object. ”

Giving up patents? Zhu Yunwen's eyes lit up, and he held his chin in his hand and calculated, giving up the patent should make the rich people in Songjiang stop, and it is also conducive to the improvement of the textile level of Daming, but isn't this too cheap for them? And I'm really short of money.

Zhu Yunwen hesitated for a while and said, "Liu'er, but these looms are all painstakingly researched by craftsmen, and Gu has already promised to give them bonuses, so he can't break his promise." And this time it's a loom, what if something like that happens in the future? ”

Ma Hui was also silent for a while, and said, "The concubine hasn't thought about it either, this is already the best way the concubine can think of." ”

"Well, it's already good, I gave Lone an idea, Lone think about it again, Liu'er, you sleep."

"yes, okay." Ma Hui muttered.

The next day, Zhu Yunwen convened Yu Xin, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, Xia Shu, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and Wang Quan, the president of the Institute of Engineering, and announced a plan, the College of Engineering gave up the patent, and anyone could imitate the new loom, but the tax on the textile industry would be increased to 30%; However, 5% of the tax collected by the Ministry of Household from the textile industry must be allocated to the Institute of Engineering for a period of ten years.

After intense discussions, the new plan was passed in the court, but the tax on the textile industry was reduced to 20%, and the proportion of household allocation was reduced to 4%.

The world's attention to the new textile machine controversy has come to an end, and the textile industry has ushered in great development.
