Zhu Di was angry.

It came from the rebellion of scholars in Dinghai County, Ningbo Prefecture.

A group of people ran to the county office, making a lot of noise, and even killed a county lieutenant.

This is obviously intolerable for Zhu Di.

Zhu Di immediately said: "I ordered the factory guards to immediately order the cavalry to rush to Dinghai County to arrest all the people involved in this matter, and not one of them will be left, and all of them will be killed." ”

When the ministers heard this, they were all silent.

Zhu Di said: "I ordered the school officials everywhere and ordered them to restrain the scholars, and if anyone dares to make trouble, the local school officials will not be able to escape the blame." ”

Jin Youzi pondered for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is too big, and the scholars are in chaos...... It's unprecedented........."

Zhu Di glanced at Jin Youzi and said casually: "This is also too much trouble?" With a few readers, dare to call it chaos? What are they! I am afraid of the people's rebellion, afraid of mutiny in the army, afraid of the military ministers plotting chaos, but the only one who is not afraid is Xiucai to rebel? ”

“……”

Zhu Di said: "Why are these people making trouble? ”

Jin Zhong said: "Say yes...... Because there were unscrupulous scholars who colluded with the Taiping Mansion to do business, it aroused public indignation. I also feel that the local county government has shielded these scholars who are doing business. Besides...... It is because of the problem of fleeing households, saying that it is in Ningbo Mansion, many people are moved by the wind, do not think about production, and compete to go to the sea, after going to sea, or go to the West with merchant ships and cargo ships, or return to Taiping Mansion with the ship, saying that the people's livelihood is withering, and the entire Ningbo Mansion is already wailing all over the wilderness. ”

Zhu Di said lightly: "Wailing all over the field? When the people ran away, why did they wail all over the wilderness? If the people run away, where will the people's livelihood wither? ”

"This ......"

Zhu Di said coldly: "It's just nonsense." ”

Jin Zhong said: "The cause of the matter seems to be that the Taiping Mansion, in order to absorb the population, sent silver to the people who settled down everywhere, and I heard that now in one day, it is good to send tens of thousands of taels of silver......"

When Zhu Di heard this, his brows furrowed even deeper: "I have heard of this, but I send so much every day?" ”

"Because of this, the people of all prefectures and counties in the world are moved when they hear the wind, which is also the reason why the prefectures and counties are extremely dissatisfied with the Taiping Mansion." Jin Zhongdao.

Zhu Di lowered his eyebrows and was silent.

Xia Yuanji said: "Your Majesty, the Taiping Mansion has been divided, and it is only a feudal town, and the imperial court, in addition to Ying Tianfu, is the eighteen provinces and their capitals. Now that Taiping Mansion is like this, it is tantamount to attracting people from all over the world to Wuhu County, which may not be a good thing for me in Daming Sheji. ”

Xia Yuanji's words have good reasons.

If the Taiping Mansion is also subordinate to the imperial court, it is easy to say, but now that the people have sealed the domain, at least they have also obtained the small property rights of the Taiping Mansion, and now they are so naked to absorb the people, which is a heavy blow to the imperial court.

Zhu Di said: "Then what do you think?" ”

Xia Yuanji said: "The minister thinks that His Royal Highness the King of Wuhu County should be ordered to prevent people from outside the county from settling down, and there are some local gentry and scholars who secretly engage in business, but I am afraid that this is also against the way of a gentleman, and some punishments should be given." ”

After a pause, Xia Yuanji continued: "Your Majesty, the minister is not complaining about the new policy, but His Majesty is sealing the domain, and the original intention is to temporarily confine the new policy to the Taiping Mansion, and then consider whether to implement it slowly, but the Taiping Mansion is too impatient, and the minister thinks ...... It's still a slow picture, and it's advisable to think about it in the long run. If not, the world will vibrate, and the army and the people will be uneasy. ”

Zhu Di didn't make a sound.

Xia Yuanji didn't know what Zhu Di's reaction was, he said with a little embarrassment: "Xiucai is in turmoil, and there is really no big movement, what the minister is worried about is that the scholars of the eighteen provinces are the same as the scholars of Dinghai County, and they can't be of the same heart and mind as the imperial court......"

Zhu Di opened his mouth and said: "Let's discuss this matter again." ”

After dispersing, Zhu Di glanced sideways and lost his hand: "The East Factory must be supervised well, not only that...... This Xia Qing said that the people are detached from morality, and this must also be investigated urgently. ”

Yisha hurriedly said: "Yes, the slave obeys the order." ”

Zhu Di said again: "The Taiping Mansion recruits the people like this, and it is tens of thousands of taels of silver every day, and if it is fucking, this is silver, not dung." This, also have to be checked, let him Zhang Anshi report the account himself, the young man now...... Don't know how to save and be modest! ”

Yisha said: "The slave has written it down." ”

Zhu Di sighed and said, "I really broke my heart." ”

Yishu Ha smiled dryly: "Your Majesty has a lot of opportunities......

"Fuck your shit!" Zhu Di scolded: "Don't talk about it." ”

Yishaha's face changed suddenly in fright, and he bowed down and kowtowed: "Ten thousand deaths." ”

Zhu Di lowered his head and muttered: "Centrifugal departure, centrifugal detachment...... Damn, I am more magnanimous than Emperor Taizu Gao, and I am still detached from morality...... Isn't it killing less ......"

Zhu Di is getting old, and he gradually likes to talk to himself at this time.

I also lost Ha, and I didn't dare to pick up the stubble.

After a few more days, he also lost his report to the newspaper: "Your Majesty, those scholars in Dinghai County have all been taken, according to Your Majesty's orders, after the Ming canonical punishment, ......"

Zhu Di waved his hand: "Got it." ”

He didn't have much interest in this matter, and it can even be said that this is in Zhu Di's opinion...... It's not a big deal in itself, if you dare to kill officials and make trouble, Zhu Di's knife is naturally sharper than theirs.

But he continued: "However, the slave maid heard something. ”

Zhu Di knew that there was something in Yishaha's words, so he glanced at Yishaha: "What's the matter?" ”

Yisha said: "The thirteen scholars who were killed are dead...... However, after hearing about it, many prefectures and counties have built shrines for them in their hometowns, and there are many people who mourn for them......"

This kind of thing can be regarded as the old rule of scholars.

Starting from the disaster of the Eastern Han Dynasty, where there were scholars who died because of the struggle, all the states and counties in the world, in recognition of their deeds, often built shrines to mourn, such sinners in the eyes of the emperor can often gain great prestige.

Zhu Di listened, and only snorted coldly: "Is this for me to see, or for them to see?" ”

He didn't dare to say anything.

It's just that Zhu Di only sneered, and said as if he was a little disappointed: "That's all? ”

"There's something else going on." Yisha hurriedly said: "There are rumors in many places, and it is said that ...... Say ......"

It's not that he doesn't dare to say it, but he knows that the latter words are likely to make Zhu Di unhappy.

Zhu Di said calmly: "Tell the truth." ”

Yisha said: "Say the king of Wuhu County...... is already Wang Mang, and the decree is only out of the palace of the king of Wuhu County......"

Zhu Di was still expressionless.

Yisha looked at Zhu Di's expression, and then said: "The slave also knows that this is just the gossip of sinister people......

Zhu Di said: "When Wang Mang was not usurped, but he was the heart of the world, how many scholars regarded him as a sage, Zhang Qing's every move was regarded as a thief, such a person is actually compared to Wang Mang, do they look down on Wang Mang, or look down on Zhang Qing?" ”

Yizha looked embarrassed: "I'm just afraid...... They deliberately wanted to provoke the monarch and ministers, so the slaves and maids thought that these people had sinister intentions......"

Zhu Di only bowed his head.

As he was talking, a eunuch came outside and said, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Emperor Sun asks to see you." ”

Zhu Di listened, and his face suddenly improved.

His grandson was glad to see him.

He is old, and in this deep palace, only Yishaha accompanies him.

And when his son saw him, he was like a mouse to a cat.

It's this grandson...... He is most concerned, but unfortunately, this grandson is now in Taiping Mansion and has a lot to do.

The smile on Zhu Di's lips couldn't be hidden, and even his voice was a little softer, and he said, "Call in." ”

Yizha knew at this time that His Majesty was in a good mood at this time, and he was also smiling at the moment: "The slave maid went to welcome the emperor and grandson for His Majesty." ”

After a while, Zhu Zhanji walked in proudly.

He was already strong, and his complexion was much darker than it had been a few days ago.

At this time, in Zhu Di's eyes, this grandson is becoming more and more like him when he was young.

So he felt even more relieved.

"Sun Chen has seen ......"

Before Zhu Zhanji finished saluting, Zhu Di stepped forward with a laugh and said, "Okay, okay, no courtesy, no courtesy...... Why are you dressed in short clothes? ”

saw Zhu Zhanji, wearing a black short suit.

The distinction between the noble and the low in the ancients can be seen from the clothing in many cases, ordinary people need to engage in heavy manual labor, if it is a long sleeve and long skirt, they will not be able to work.

Only nobles or scholars wear long-sleeved shirts, and the longer the sleeves, the more noble they are.

Zhu Zhanji was dressed in a short suit today, and said at this time: "Emperor, Sun Chen...... I just came down from the embankment. ”

"Embankment?" Zhu Di said with great interest: "What are you doing on the embankment?" ”

Zhu Zhanji said: "Sun Chen has made some contributions, from the third-class scribe, then to the second-class, first-class clerk, at the end of the year, he was promoted to the secretary, and now, it is the main book of the Taiping Mansion when Tu County." ”

Zhu Di listened and was very funny: "Just the master book, he Zhang Anshi still wants to add a test word to you in front of you?" ”

The so-called test master book is actually equivalent to generation.

It's just the job of acting as the chief bookkeeper, of course, only a good job can be turned into a regular.

Zhu Zhanji didn't care, and said: "The emperor doesn't know, Sun Chen's promotion is already fast, if it is fast, I don't know if anyone is gossiping!" It's just that this Tu County did have a vacancy in the main book, and Sun Chen happened to make some contributions last year, but with these, it was still insufficient, and the qualifications were insufficient, so it had to be so. ”

Zhu Di said: "What does the position of the chief bookkeeper have to do with this embankment?" ”

This position of chief bookkeeper was originally an assistant in charge of clerical affairs under the chief officials at all levels.

But after the Ming Dynasty, he became a local affairs official.

I take care of everything, and sometimes I share some affairs for the county commanders and county officials.

Zhu Zhanji said: "With the excavation of the canal, there are too many cargo ships congested on the river now, and if we can't clean up the silt of some rivers and widen the river, I am afraid that the congestion will be even worse in the future." This is now the responsibility of the grandson. The grandson has to go up the river embankment to inspect it, and he has to be responsible for the supply of labor, as well as the recruitment of people, etc., which are the most tedious things, but the uncle said...... When the Yuan Dynasty was in the beginning, it was because of the construction of the river that hundreds of thousands of laborers rose up, so the world was in chaos. ”

It can be seen that the matter of building a river is the most difficult. How to settle these tens of thousands of laborers, how to understand their situation, how to ensure that they can be fed and clothed, and at the same time to ensure that the project does not make mistakes, this is not something ordinary people can do, and the grandchildren are young, if they can't always visit the river embankment, they can't serve the public. ”

When Zhu Di heard this, he was distressed, but he couldn't help but feel relieved.

Zhang Anshi, that guy, this is using his grandson as a livestock!

I have to say that this is also an experience.

Zhu Di is a person who has endured hardships, and he also understands the significance of this kind of education.

What makes Zhu Di happy is that Zhu Zhanji's happy appearance does not seem to have half a complaint, and he seems to be enjoying it.

So Zhu Di became more and more loving, and said with a smile on his face: "Okay, you also work hard, sit down and talk." ”

Yizha had already taken the Jindun, and Zhu Zhanji sat down loudly.

Zhu Di said again: "Then how is this river repaired?" ”

"It's okay, there will definitely be mistakes in the busyness, but it's all small mistakes, and it's still too late to make amends." Zhu Zhanji continued: "As long as the county has enough money and food, it is not a problem. ”

Zhu Di raised his eyebrows and said, "Where does the manpower to repair the river come from?" ”

Zhu Zhanji said: "Some will be recruited locally, but there are quite a few from other prefectures and counties...... A few days ago, there was indeed a shortage of manpower, and no matter what, it was impossible to recruit people, after all, it was hard to repair the river, and the money and food given may not be more than in other places. But now...... However, there has been a great improvement, and many people have settled in various prefectures and counties, and they are more willing to endure hardships and are very satisfied with their current salaries. ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Zhanji's face showed a little annoyance, and he continued: "It's just...... However, the people from all over the world have different accents, and sometimes their grandchildren can't understand what they say, and they may not be able to understand their grandchildren's words. ”

In this place in the south of the Yangtze River, almost in the past a township, the accent is different, in the past a county, the accent may be very different, if it is separated by one or two prefectures, if it is not good to grasp the law of their accent, it is probably the same as listening to the book of heaven.

Looking at Zhu Zhanji's annoyed look, Zhu Di just hooked his lips and smiled.

Zhu Di obviously didn't have his mind here, he said: "I heard that Zhang Qing gave a lot of silver to all the new Dings who settled down, are these true?" ”

Zhu Zhanji said honestly: "Of course, how can the notice posted by our Taiping Mansion deceive people?" ”

Zhu Di couldn't help but say, "How much silver does it cost......

Zhu Di gritted his teeth, looking like he hated iron but not steel.

Zhang Anshi was just that, but Zhu Zhanji looked indifferent, which made Zhu Di even more sad.

This is the future lord of the country! If even he doesn't know moderation, then the grandson's grandson, when he succeeds to the unification, is afraid that he will suffer.

So the more Zhu Di thought about it, the more distressed he became.

Zhu Zhanji said: "Although I gave the silver, it didn't cost much, this ...... Sun Er is the main book, this Tu County has indeed recruited 6,400 households in the past two months, and the amount of silver spent is only tens of thousands of taels. Naturally, when Tu is only a small county, there may be more Qixia over there. ”

Zhu Di sighed: "Grandson, don't do it for the sake of profit, have you heard of this sentence?" ”

Zhu Zhanji shook his head and said: "My grandson has only heard that he does not take the good for the small, and does not take the evil for the small. ”

Zhu Di said: "Just one Dangtu county is like this, what about the more than a dozen counties in the entire Taiping Mansion?" In this way, this is nearly a million taels of silver...... Nowhere to be found. A million taels of silver, do you know what that number is? ”

Accumulate a lot, you know!

Zhu Zhanji obviously didn't understand Zhu Di's mood, scratched his head and said, "It doesn't seem to be a lot." ”

When Zhu Di heard this, he was directly furious.

When others said this, Zhu Di would at most be grim.

But his grandson, the prince of the Ming Dynasty, said such things, which made him heartbroken.

I can't even look down on a million taels of silver, and he will be the Son of Heaven in the future, so will he pay it back?

So even in the face of his most beloved grandson, Zhu Di couldn't help but be angry, and glared at him angrily: "Ridiculous! What do you mean by not a lot, how many million taels of silver are there in this world, and you actually put so much silver in your eyes! ”

Zhu Zhanji rarely saw his imperial grandfather angry with him, and he was suddenly startled, so he hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, Sun Chen is dead." ”

After all, he was the grandson who cared about him the most, seeing his grandson like this, Zhu Di's face immediately softened, and he seemed to feel that his words were a little heavy, and immediately said: "That's it, you have to remember the lesson in the future, this matter...... I'm going to talk to your uncle myself, and I'm going to teach you to get rid of this bad habit......"

Zhu Zhanji hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "But...... The emperor, the grandson still thinks ...... A million taels of silver, it's nothing. ”

Zhu Di suddenly raised his eyebrows, just about to be angry.

I saw Zhu Zhanji continue: "After all...... Our Taiping Mansion, this customs alone, there are more than 10 million taels of silver...... took out a million taels to absorb the people and recruit people to settle down, but it greatly alleviated the problem of labor, not only opened more canals, but built more roads, bridges and railways...... No matter how you calculate, you won't lose. ”

Zhu Di hated that iron could not become steel and said: "You fool, you must have seen your uncle's big hands and feet, and you also learned...... Wait, what customs, what tens of millions? ”

On the other side, Zhu Di's face was still accumulating anger, and Zhu Zhanji said with a sigh of hope: "Actually...... Sun Er only went to the Yamen of the Mansion for a meeting and listened to what the Wuhu County Order said...... This Wuhu county order was said by Li Zhaomo in the government Yin Yali. As a matter of fact...... What is the number of this customs, in fact, not much is known about the Taiping Mansion. However, the government and county government are all rumors, but I am afraid that there will be at least ten million taels ......"

Zhu Di raised his eyebrows and said, "Customs? Isn't that the ...... What is the commercial tax on the entry of overseas ships? ”

"Yes." Zhu Zhanji said: "It belongs to the county prince's mansion, and the leader is called Yu Qian, this Yu Qian used to be a secretary of his uncle, but his grandson has not dealt with him much on weekdays, and he doesn't like to talk to people." ”

Zhu Di's face changed.

The look on his face was one moment of surprise and the next moment of shock.

seemed to be afraid that he would lose his temper, so he pinned his face to the other side, so as not to be noticed by Zhu Zhanji.

After all, Zhu Di still has to face in front of his grandson, and he hopes that Zhu Zhanji will inherit his martial and thrifty family style, instead of being happy when he sees wealth.
