Chapter 33 The Son of Heaven does not compete with the people for profit

Thinking of the events before the martyrdom of the previous life, Zhu Youzhen was a little sad for a while. In his memory, it was as if it had just happened.

The mood was too agitated to continue to review and soothe, so Zhu Youzhen walked out of the Qianqing Palace and soon came to Kunning Palace.

Empress Zhou was very surprised when she saw Zhu Youzhen: "Your Majesty, why did you come during the day?" ”

Zhu Youzhen grabbed Queen Zhou's hand: "I miss the queen......"

At present, the two have only been married for more than a year, and they are back to seventeen years old, and the queen is also a seventeen-year-old girl, the prince, Yongwang, Dingwang, and his two poor daughters, Kun Xing and Kun Yi have not been born. In this life, I must protect my wife and protect my future children, Zhu Youzhen swore in his heart.

The hand was pulled, Queen Zhou's face turned red all of a sudden, she looked outside, and hesitated: "Your Majesty, it's not dark yet......

Who knew that Zhu Youzhen didn't pull her to do embarrassing things, but just sat side by side on the brocade couch and said something homely, which made Queen Zhou breathe a sigh, to be honest, she was not used to doing such things during the day.

After gossiping for a while, Zhu Youzhen's mood calmed down a little.

Holding the queen's hand and looking at her bright and smooth face, Zhu Youzhen remembered that he had been in love with each other for more than ten years, and remembered that in his previous life, he was the king of a country, but he didn't even have the silver to make jewelry for his wife, and he asked his wife to weave cloth in the palace to mend his dragon robe.

Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but say: "Rest assured, the queen can rest assured, I will not let you be wronged with me again in this life, let alone let our children suffer any disasters in the future!" ”

Queen Zhou smiled: "Your Majesty said that you are the king of a country, and it is the greatest blessing for a concubine to marry you, how can you be wronged?" Our future children will not have any calamity. ”

Speaking of this, Queen Zhou's heart moved, why did he mention the child? Could it be that he wants to do that shameful thing very much now, and is afraid that people will be embarrassed to say that he is embarrassed to prostitute in the daytime, and deliberately mention the child to hint at me? What am I going to do? As a wife, it is my duty to serve a good husband, forget it, let me take the initiative.

"Your Majesty ......" At this moment, Queen Zhou gave up the dignified and reserved on her body, imagined the appearance of those foxy women in her mind, and smiled at Zhu Youzhen.

Zhu Youzhen was stunned for a moment, why are you blushing, what do you want to do?

However, the current queen is so beautiful! It seems that I have never seen the queen's coquettish appearance.

At this moment, Zhu Youzhen's heart was hooked, and his breathing became heavy and short.

The palace maids waiting in the palace glanced at each other, quietly pulled up the curtain, and retreated silently.

......

"Emperor, it's time to go to court."

Zhu Youzhen opened his eyes all of a sudden, looked at the queen who was still asleep, and then realized that he rested in Kunning Palace last night.

Thinking about the queen's pandering to herself in every way last night, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but smile. In his last life, he devoted all his thoughts to state affairs, and rarely took into account his wife's feelings.

Gently pulling up the brocade quilt and covering the queen's arms like white lotus, Zhu Youzhen quietly walked out, and his own eunuch and palace maid helped him wash and dress.

In the court, the ministers took turns to play, and the monarchs and ministers discussed various things, most of them were on the matter, there was no special quarrel, and the harmonious and calm court made Zhu Youzhen very satisfied.

However, satisfaction was only temporary, and soon Zhu Youzhen frowned.

"Your Majesty, the prefect of Suzhou wrote to impeach the Suzhou weaving eunuch He Longqiao weaving the name and competing with the people for profit, and the Suzhou weavers were miserable and asked His Majesty to stop Suzhou weaving." Why did Yu Shi stand up and said loudly.

With He Biqiu, more than a dozen officials stood up, all demanding that Zhu Youzhen punish the eunuch He Long and dismiss Suzhou Weaving.

In the mouths of these officials, He Long was heinous, bullying and oppressing the weavers to take advantage of the robbery, and also smuggling under the identity of the Qincha.

Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but think of the previous life, the same scene, when he heard the tragic situation of the weavers in Suzhou described by the civil officials, he was very angry and indignant, and he couldn't wait to cramp and peel the weaving eunuch He Long, and almost didn't think much, so he categorically agreed to the request of the civil officials and dismissed the Suzhou weaving yamen.

Now that I think about it, how simple and naΓ―ve I was at that time! is full of heart to be a good emperor and a saint, and he doesn't want to gain a reputation for profit with the people, but he was fooled by these civil officials.

withdrew the eunuchs, abolished Suzhou weaving, how much benefit the people got Zhu Youzhen didn't know, he only knew that his inner treasury silver was decreasing day by day, and in the end it was empty, and even the soldiers on the front line could not be paid.

It's been relived again, and here it is again, and these civil officials have come to fool themselves again!

Zhu Youzhen sneered in his heart, and did not directly say whether he agreed or not, but looked at Huang Liji, who was standing at the head of the class.

"Motosuke, what does the cabinet think about this matter?" Zhu Youzhen asked in a calm tone.

"Your Majesty, the minister agrees with the request of the Suzhou prefect," Huang Liji stood up and said in a deep voice, "The ministers have long heard of the difficult life of Suzhou weavers, Suzhou is the core of Jiangnan, Jiangnan is the important place of taxation of the Ming Dynasty, if Suzhou is chaotic, Jiangnan is uneasy, it will definitely affect the grain of Jiejing." ”

Huang Liji's words sounded all for the sake of the imperial court and the people of the world, taking into account the grain tax and the people of Suzhou, but he didn't take into account himself, the emperor, which made Zhu Youzhen a little disappointed.

A civil official is a civil official, even if Huang Liji, who seems to be very obedient, will only consider the interests of the gentry class!

Suzhou weaving yamen directly under the jurisdiction of the inner government, every year to the palace to send the task of silk, Suzhou weaving yamen also do business, the weaver woven silk to buy away, resold and then sold to the silk merchants, and even sold to the sea merchants, most of the silver earned to the royal treasury.

Zhu Youzhen later made a special investigation, just Suzhou weaving, and the annual loss of silver in the inner treasury was three or four hundred thousand taels.

So are the weavers living better, I'm afraid it may not be! This amount of money was only transferred from the inner treasury to the hands of the Jiangnan gentry.

Almost instantly, Zhu Youzhen figured out the matter, and immediately said: "The weaving eunuch abused the people, and sent the brocade guard lock into Beijing to ask for the crime and confiscate the corruption of the silver into the inner treasury, and I will send another person to take over the weaving in Suzhou."

The Suzhou Weaving Yamen is responsible for transporting silk and satin to the palace, and what do my concubines wear? ”

Huang Liji sighed in his heart and returned to the train.

"Your Majesty, the weaving yamen is not only to transport silk for the palace, but also to control the silk market, forced to sell, the surnames are miserable, Your Majesty is the Ming Jun, the people of Suzhou are also your own people, Your Majesty will definitely not make a move to compete with the people, please dismiss the Suzhou Weaving Yamen!"

Yushi Why beagle refused to give up and continued.

"Minister, please dismiss the Suzhou Weaving Yamen!" Other officials chimed in.
