Chapter 151: The Little Life Is Miserable
"Go ahead."
Just as Zhu Yunxi was about to explain, Tang Queqing had already looked at him with soft eyebrows and said softly.
Tang Queqing looked at the man in front of him who was destined to be with him for a lifetime, his face was tender like water, and he felt pity.
The children of the sergeant clan in the DPRK are still vassally elegant; The children of the middle generals were still playing horses and parading the streets.
The man in front of him had already taken on the social affairs of the Ming Dynasty.
Tang Queqing covered the back of Zhu Yunxi's hand with both hands, gently pushed it, and said softly: "I heard that you like to drink the local chicken soup over there in Luzhou Mansion the most, you haven't come back yet, and the concubine has already made it out of the pot and simmered slowly." When you're done, you'll be ready to drink. ”
It's completely into the role.
Zhu Yunxi had already stood up, took Tang Queqing's hand, and patted it gently.
Under Tang Queqing's calm gaze, Zhu Yunxi walked towards the outside of the corridor.
"Ministers, see the emperor's grandson."
In the tea room of the side hall of the East Palace, Xie Jin, Xia Yuanji, and Tie Xuan, who had been resting for a while, listened to the footsteps coming in from outside, hurriedly put down the teacups, and got up to salute.
Farewell to the love of children, Zhu Yunxi, who rushed over from the lotus pond, waved his hand casually: "Sit down." ”
As he spoke, he himself was already seated on the throne.
Yutian, the little eunuch who came behind him, bowed down and stepped forward and poured him a cup of golden tea soup.
Zhu Yunxi's face was as usual, but his eyes were surging at him.
Yutian hurriedly lowered his head, carefully put down the teapot, put his hands together, and retreated silently.
After that, a smile appeared on Zhu Yunxi's face and looked at the three people who sat down in front of him again.
Today's Xie Jin, strictly speaking, in addition to their own official positions and affairs in the court, are more like royal secretaries.
Xie Jin and Tie Xuan both had calmness on their faces, only Xia Yuanji, who was also in charge of the household department, looked hesitant and depressed.
I just heard about the emptiness of the treasury on the old man's side today, Zhu Yunxi smiled slightly, took a sip of tea, and asked vigorously: "But are you worried about money and food?" ”
Xie Jin and Tie Xuan immediately looked at Xia Yuanji, who had not gone out to eat with them in the past few days.
Xia Yuanji nodded helplessly: "The summer tax has not yet been released and sent to Beijing, but the imperial court has to use money every day, and Lord Shangshu is already in a hurry, and there are several bubbles at the corners of his mouth, which is considered light." ”
Zhu Yunxi nodded, and suddenly stared at Xia Yuanji with a smile in his eyes.
Being stared at by the imperial grandson with such an expression, Xia Yuanji's heart couldn't help but become weak, and his back was even more numb.
He felt that something bad was going to happen to him.
Xia Yuanji hesitated and whispered: "The imperial grandson wants to ......"
Zhu Yunxi waved his big hand, looking extraordinarily sudden, and then said casually: "It's not a big deal, but it's Your Majesty's Wanshou Festival this year, and it's decided today, it's going to be done, this king took this matter by himself, and he patted his chest in front of His Majesty and made a guarantee, this year will definitely be more lively!" ”
Hearing this, Xia Yuanji only felt that his eyes were dark, and his head was buzzing.
Where is this to be done.
This is clearly written, clearly written, two big ink characters.
Ask for money!
Xie Jin and Tie Xuan sat on the side, smiling, the two tacitly picked up the teacup, and secretly glanced at each other by drinking tea.
In the past few days, his two pairs of Xia Yuanji can be regarded as knowing the roots. With the entry of the three of them into the palace to counsel state affairs, the invisible status of the three in the court has been significantly raised.
And the result is that the things they undertake in the yamen are becoming more and more important.
But whether it is a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy or the Ministry of Rites, no matter how busy and heavy the things are, they are far inferior to the already complicated affairs of the Yamen such as the Household Department.
Xia Yuanji these days, although he is only cleaning up the head of the department, but he doesn't have to do things lightly, and even the servants of the household department often run to him and have some things to discuss with him.
What is done is just for the sake of a wide alliance and good fate.
Xia Yuanji learned that there was going to be a big event for His Majesty's Halloween this year, and he opened his mouth weakly: "Imperial grandson, this matter will not be said by you in front of Your Majesty, right?" ”
According to His Majesty's temperament, this year is another eventful year, and I will not think about it anyway, I will make a special event for my Hallomy Day, and I will have to do it in a hurry.
Then there is only one possibility, and it is the idea of the imperial grandson of his own family.
looked at Xia Yuanji's look that he was about to fall down with his eyes rolling at any time.
Zhu Yunxi no longer laughed with him, and said: "Don't worry, the household department has no money, and it won't be long before you count the money to live." This year's grandfather's birthday should be expensed, and the user department does not worry about half a point. ”
"Really?" Xia Yuanji's heart was hot, and he hurriedly got up and asked.
Only then did he react, Shanshan showed an embarrassed smile, and sat down silently.
Zhu Yunxi nodded and explained: "In the past few days, Brother Wei Zhe first sorted out the number, personnel, and land occupation of the Zhili Post Station in detail, and then took out the details of the number of post stations in Daming. If this matter is done well, the imperial court will earn no less than hundreds of thousands of taels every year, and it will become a benevolent government that benefits the people! ”
Xia Yuanji raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
Is the imperial grandson going to attack the imperial court?
Not only him, but even Xie Jin and Tie Xuan, who were still watching the play just now, couldn't help but look at the imperial grandson.
They have been by Zhu Yunxi's side for a long time, and they can't see that this young imperial grandson has countless thoughts about everything in the court.
Zhu Yunxi saw that the three of them were hesitant, knowing that they thought that at this time, they were going to make a move, and promoted the two words that all officials had been afraid of and feared since ancient times.
Reform.
He said with a smile: "It's just to add some income to the imperial court, and it won't make a big move, and it won't compete with the people." ”
When Xie Jin heard this, he echoed with a smile: "The imperial grandson is benevolent, and the ministers are relieved." ”
Zhu Yunxi smiled slightly, and said: "Since I want to hold a birthday festival for my grandfather, the local officials in Daming will probably not be able to catch up according to the time."
Zhili local government to say, this year in Beijing officials, the rest do not have to enter Beijing, let alone send congratulatory gifts into Beijing, anyone who violates, the DPRK and the central government from the immediate decree reprimand, serious cases, should be handed over to the department for punishment! ”
The large-scale special office and the scenery of the office do not mean that the local officials of the Ming Dynasty will all enter Beijing.
When Xie Jin and the three of them saw Zhu Yunxi's arrangement, their hearts were even more settled.
Otherwise, whenever there is such an emperor's longevity, local officials will pour out of the nest, and the expenses along the way will cost the court countless money and food.
Not to mention, these magistrates also have to choose congratulatory gifts for the emperor, and this account must be counted on the heads of the local people after all.
It's just that at this time, Zhu Yunxi changed his words again: "However, now I have been the founding of the Ming Dynasty for thirty-four years. There are also many envoys from foreign countries in Beijing, and they want to know that they are going to enter the palace on this Wanshou Festival and listen to the edict of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. ”
Why did this topic jump from the post station to the vassal state of Fanbang again?
Xie Jin and the three of them looked at each other helplessly again.
However, the Ministry of Rites gave Tie Xuan a hint of the matter, and suddenly said: "Speaking of which, the imperial grandson may not know that two groups of envoys from the Wa Kingdom have disembarked at the Songjiang Mansion at the same time in the past few days, and it is considered to be entering the city today. ”
In the past few years, the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and the Wa Kingdom was very bad.
In the early years of Hongwu, the Wa State even killed the envoys sent by the Ming Dynasty. Later, in order to alleviate the troubles of the Japanese on the southeast coast, Zhu Yuanzhang swallowed his anger and sent envoys again, but he was not killed again, but there was not much progress in the relationship with the Japanese state.
Zhu Yunxi never thought that the little ...... This year, the Wa Kingdom actually arranged envoys to Beijing.
Xie Jin and Xia Yuanji didn't know the details of the country, and asked suspiciously: "Two batches of hours? Why is that? ”
Tie Xuan smiled: "I heard from Songjiang Mansion that the country has not been very peaceful in recent years, and the country has been divided into two groups and has been fighting. ”
After hearing this, Xie Jin immediately spoke: "So, they are here to enter the court, in order to ask me for help from Daming?" ”
Tie Xuan thought for a moment and nodded, "The presentation sent by Songjiang Mansion to the Ministry of Rites said that the situation of those two groups is completely different. Disembarking almost at the same time, a group of people were swaggering and well-dressed. It's the other group, and it's ...... It seemed like a miserable day......"
"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"
Xie Jin and Xia Yuanji immediately laughed.
Xia Yuanji also forgot about the troubles of the household at this time, and said: "That must be asking me for the Ming Dynasty." Otherwise, it would not have pinched this point in time and entered the court at the same time. ”
Xie Jin looked at Zhu Yunxi: "The imperial grandson, the Japanese country is in my Ming Dynasty, and the most important thing is the southeast coastal trouble, this time maybe our dynasty can take this opportunity to reduce the pressure on the southeast coast, and our dynasty must not miss such a good opportunity." ”
The troubles on the southeast coast included the spontaneous actions of the poor people in the Wa Kingdom, and the Southern Dynasties transported them back to China in order to plunder resources.
If it can appease the territory of the Ming Dynasty, the troubles along the coast of the Ming Dynasty will also be alleviated a lot.
Zhu Yunxi asked at this time: "On the side of the Ministry of Rites, there has been news of the Li family's Joseon Kingdom. ”
Tie Xuan frowned and pondered for a moment: "The Li family has always had envoys in Beijing, I don't know what the arrangement is for the imperial grandson to ask this?" ”
The corners of Zhu Yunxi's mouth raised slightly: "Knowing the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple, the two groups of envoys of the current Wa State will be arranged to stay next to the envoys of the Li Korean State." ”
Tie Xuan couldn't help but be stunned: "The envoys of the Wa Kingdom who entered the court this time are also put together?" ”
Zhu Yunxi glanced at Tie Xuan, and said, "Since they are all envoys of the Japanese Kingdom, how can they arrange two places?" I, the Ming Dynasty, want to respect the foreign vassal states, how can I divide a country into two halves in the Ming Dynasty? ”
Tie Xuan was a little hesitant, always feeling that the imperial grandson was holding back some tricks and didn't explain it to them.
It can be seen that the imperial grandson and the radiant expression, Tie Xuan can only respond.
