Chongzhen really didn't know the specific situation, he only knew that Zhaoyuan produced gold, but it seemed to be buried hundreds of meters underground, and he didn't know if these people could be found at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

What's more, Zhu Youjian didn't know if there was any technology to dig it out at the end of the Ming Dynasty, so he mentioned it by the way.

In fact, several gold mines in Zhaoyuan are below 500 meters, which is indeed difficult to mine in this era.

Li Banghua was stunned, so much gold, will you say it by the way, Your Majesty?

At the current market price, one tael of gold can be exchanged for a dozen taels of silver. Moreover, the use of gold has increased, and the value cannot be estimated by silver, and the value of the gold mine you casually said can catch up with the silver mine just now!

This incident was firmly imprinted in Li Banghua's heart, until he died more than ten years later, and the last sentence was to ask the people around him, "Has the Laizhou gold mine been found?" ”

"Okay, I told you that the cabinet should arrange it as soon as possible, and you should step down." Zhu Youjian issued an eviction order.

The three members of the cabinet saluted in unison and walked slowly.

In the Heart Cultivation Palace, only their father and son were left.

Chongzhen stood up, walked in front of Zhu Cihong, looked at it carefully, and said softly: "Brother Chun is thin and dark!" ”

Zhu Cihong's eyes turned red on the spot, and he choked up and couldn't speak.

"As the prince of the Ming Dynasty, you can't be so sentimental, and you can't cry at will." Chongzhen reprimanded gently.

Hearing his father's reprimand, Zhu Cihong felt warm.

After experiencing life and death, I know the warmth of my loved ones!

"Father! The son is guilty! I can't be the prince of the Ming Dynasty anymore! Zhu Cihong knelt down solemnly and said sadly.

Not only did Chongzhen not understand why the prince was suddenly like this, but even King Ding showed a puzzled look.

"Erchen was coerced north from Shanhaiguan and fled all the way north, only to crash into the Mongolian border. Captured by the Mongols. ”

Chongzhen nodded.

"Originally, he was just doing some rough work in the Mongolian tribes, but before Li Yutian besieged Daning, he built a strong wall and cleared the wilderness, and captured his retainers and took them to the city of Daning.

That's why Erchen's hair became like this......"

Zhu Cihong said, taking off his black yarn winged good crown, revealing only stubble's bald head.

King Ding said: "You have left the rat tail of Jianyu and swear......"

Chongzhen helped Zhu Cihong put on his hat again, slowly supported him, and said slowly: "It's okay." It's all trifle! ”

Zhu Cihong didn't dare to get up, and said, "Erchen has surrendered to Jianyu, how can he still be this prince?" ”

Chongzhen understands Zhu Cihong's worries very well, once the world knows about his experience of being captured, even if he retains the position of the crown prince, it will definitely become a stain for life.

Chongzhen helped him up and said, "Yingzong also went hunting in the north, and he was not also reinstated as the emperor, you don't have to take it to heart at all." You were captured as a slave, and you can still help Li Yutian break the city, which is already rare! ”

Countless looks flashed in King Ding's eyes, and he also stood up and said: "Brother Prince, you don't have to be like this, my position as the foundation of the Ming Dynasty is stable, as long as you don't give up, no one can shake your position as the prince!" ”

Chongzhen heard the meaning of King Ding's words and sighed slightly.

"Jiong'er, there is no outsider here, don't say a word about your brother Bei Hunting!" Chongzhen instructed.

"Erchen understands." Zhu Cijiong hurriedly replied.

"If someone talks nonsense outside, or writes a book of impeachment, I don't mind learning from Taizu, and I will come back to the Lanyu case and the empty seal case a few more times until I kill all those who know!"

When King Ding heard this, he understood again.

"Brother Chun, you can relax and be your prince well, and from today onwards, you will follow me to the court and criticize the folds.

In the future, I will often drive the expedition in person, and I will need you to supervise the country when the time comes! ”

Zhu Cihong raised his head, looked at his father hesitantly, and said, "My father wants to often drive in person, this is too dangerous!" ”

"Our old Zhu family has obtained the world from wars after wars, and our ancestors can conquer the world, so can't I?

Zhu Cihong saw that his father was determined, and this was not the time to advise, so he had to nod.

Chongzhen continued: "Don't worry, now that the imperial court is strong and strong, and I am prosperous, you have a lot of study time, you must guard against arrogance and rashness, study modestly, and strive to support national affairs as soon as possible." ”

Zhu Cihong's eyes were red again.

Chongzhen pressed his hand on the prince's shoulder and said, "Okay, your body is still weak, don't waste your mind here." Go back to the harem and go see your sister for me. ”

The prince's sister is Princess Changping, and the other sister, Princess Zhaoren, had died under Chongzhen's sword when Jingshi broke the city.

At that time, Chongzhen was afraid that the royal family would be humiliated after the fall of the capital, so he ordered Empress Zhou, Yuan Guifei and his brother Zhu Youxiao's Empress Zhang to commit suicide, and then Chongzhen carried a sword in his hand and walked to the residence of his two daughters, Princess Changping and Princess Zhaoren.

Chongzhen lifted the long sword in his hand and stabbed Princess Zhaoren, who was only 6 years old, and killed his daughter on the spot.

When Princess Changping saw it, she knelt in front of Chongzhen and pulled her shirt and cried.

Chongzhen looked up to the sky and sighed: Why did you give birth to my family!

Then Chongzhen was ruthless, swung his sword and slashed at Princess Changping, out of instinctive sense of survival, Princess Changping waved her left arm to block, so the sword cut off her left arm, and she screamed and fainted in a pool of blood.

Chongzhen thought that his daughter would die, so he went to the coal mountain with Wang Chengen to hang himself.

When Gao Di recovered the capital division, he was pleasantly surprised to find that Princess Changping was still alive, and immediately reported the good news to Chongzhen.

At that time, Chongzhen had already become Zhu Youjian, but he still harbored remorse and never dared to see Princess Changping.

So to this day, their father and daughter have not seen each other.

Now that the country is out of the most dangerous situation, Chongzhen has regained his father's love and is ready to compensate his daughter.

However, Princess Changping was reluctant to meet, so he had to let the prince go first, hoping to untie his daughter's knot.

Zhu Cihong listened, knew Chongzhen's difficulties, and said, "Erchen, let's go and chat with my sister." The retainers retired. ”

After Zhu Cihong left, the Heart Cultivation Hall suddenly fell silent.

Chongzhen and King Ding's father and son sat quietly, and no one spoke.

King Ding was nervous, he knew that his father would definitely scold him.

After a long time, Chongzhen said sharply: "Zhu Cijiong, after you think about it, do you know that you are wrong?" ”

"Back to the father, the sons should not repeatedly trespass, damaging the authority of the father and the prince's brother!" King Ding said sincerely.

"If you know, it's good." Chongzhen nodded, then was silent for a long time, and said again: "Actually, I know your thoughts, the throne, you would have had a chance." ”

King Ding was shocked, he didn't expect his father to directly pick out this topic.

"The whereabouts of the prince's brother are unknown, and the sons and daughters naturally have to be ready to take over the burden of the Ming Dynasty. But now that the prince's brother has returned safely, Erchen will naturally put away all his thoughts. ”

"Good!"

Chongzhen approved.

"Actually, with the intelligence and talent you showed, you have the power of an emperor."

King Ding raised his head abruptly and looked at Chongzhen in surprise, the longing in his eyes couldn't be hidden at all.

Chongzhen's arms are bright
