Apocalypse first states the fact that the treasury is empty, and then expresses his dissatisfaction with the endowment and his understanding of the suffering of the people.

But if the court can't collect money and grain, the consequences will only be more serious, so you have to make money.

At this time, Apocalypse suddenly changed his words and directly asked how many treasures there were in King Fu's Mansion.

The foreshadowing is so well placed that a fool can hear what Apocalypse is thinking.

But even so, Wei Zhongxian is still hard to imagine, because the treasury is unable to make ends meet, and it is not just now, and no one has ever thought of the idea of fighting the vassal king.

The vassal king has money, and it is also people's money, and the court should provide or provide for it, this is a rule formulated by Taizu, and it has not been broken for hundreds of years.

But Wei Zhongxian has realized that long live is not a whim, but a premeditated plan, and he summoned himself into the palace today for this matter, so he led the conversation to King Fu again and again.

Before, he had already treasured the evil deeds of King Fu, and at this time, if he didn't know how many treasures there were in King Fu's mansion, he wouldn't believe anyone who came out of the ghost.

So, Wei Zhongxian had to answer honestly: "Long live, as far as the slave knows, King Fu is deeply favored by the emperor, so when he became a vassal, he was given 20,000 hectares of fertile land, and in the past ten years, King Fu has continued to encroach on the people's land, and King Fu's mansion is now afraid that there are 30,000 hectares of fertile land." ”

"In addition to the fertile land, the emperor also gave countless gold, silver and rare treasures to compensate King Fu for losing the crown prince."

"But King Fu was not satisfied, and asked the emperor for salt tea and miscellaneous taxes from Sichuan, Henan and other places, all for himself."

"In addition, King Fu asked the emperor for 1,300 taels of Huai salt, and set up a store in Luoyang to sell it, competing with the people for profit, and the income was huge."

"If you count the mansions, shops, real estate, and the wealth of the Fu Wang's Mansion, the slaves and maids make bold guesses, and I am afraid that there will be no less than tens of millions."

In fact, what Wei Zhongxian said is not unknown to the apocalypse, because it is not a secret in the palace.

Wanli originally wanted to give 40,000 hectares of fertile land, but it was strongly opposed by the officials, and after some bargaining between the two sides, it was changed to 20,000 hectares.

But even so, the entire Henan Province could not take out so many fields, so they took the fields of Shandong and Huguang provinces to make up for it.

may have felt that the land had been reduced by half, so in the next few years, Emperor Wanli agreed to all kinds of requests put forward by King Fu.

In particular, the last item is the sale of salt, and it is Huai salt, because in the past, the salt eaten in Luoyang was Hedong salt, and after King Fu obtained the salt introduction of Huai salt, he strictly prohibited the sale of Hedong salt.

Because one lead of salt is 300 catties, and 1,300 leads are nearly 400,000 catties. And, not all at once, it's so much every year.

With so much salt, it is impossible to digest it at all, and there is only a monopoly on it.

Salt is a necessity, whether it is a dignitary or an ordinary person, it is indispensable, and it is a huge profit, so there have been so many salt merchants worth millions of dollars throughout the ages.

With this income alone, King Fu has made a lot of money.

However, the harvest of Hedong salt was directly linked to the border salary, and the sales of Hedong salt fell sharply, and the border army's border salary naturally dropped sharply.

This is for the sake of this son, and he doesn't even care about the border guards.

Therefore, since the birth of King Fu, it has been the existence of disaster for the country and the people, and the dispute over the foundation of a country has brought profound disasters.

After taking over the domain, in order to support him, the entire Henan Province could not bear it, and the surrounding provinces of Shandong, Huguang and Sichuan had to fill it.

It's no wonder that such a Ming is not eaten.

Tianqi naturally hated this, anyway, he was not the real son and grandson of the Zhu family, even if he was, he couldn't stand such a pig's head.

Anyway, in the official history, this product was also made into a snack by Li Zicheng, rather than hundreds of millions of family properties being used by Li Zicheng to fill up military funds and use it to deal with the Ming Dynasty, it is better to start first, and it can be regarded as taking it from the Ming Dynasty and using it for the Ming Dynasty.

However, there is no such precedent for the fief of the king of Cha for no reason.

Even if Wei Zhongxian just said so many evil deeds of King Fu, but looking at so many vassal kings in the Ming Dynasty, how many good birds are there?

Unless it is a major crime such as rebellion, the current crimes do not add up to the standard of raiding the house.

If you don't raid your home, King Fu is rich and rivals the wealth of the country, and the apocalypse can only be seen, not touched.

Therefore, Wei Zhongxian's role is particularly important.

After all, this kind of thing, it is not easy for the apocalypse to come forward in person, and when it comes to seniority, King Fu is still his imperial uncle.

And the other vassal kings will also watch, if it is not handled well, it will definitely bring a lot of trouble.

Tianqi thought for a while and said, "Wei Daban, do you think that King Fu is willing to take the initiative to hand over his family wealth to me to fill the treasury and help Daming tide over the difficulties?" ”

Hearing this, Wei Zhongxian wanted to say, long live, I'm afraid you're not daydreaming.

But he didn't know that the apocalypse was deliberate, so he could only tell the truth: "Long live Hui, I'm only afraid that King Fu is unwilling." ”

"However, his hundreds of millions of family fortunes are all from the Ming Dynasty, and now the Ming Dynasty is in trouble, as a descendant of the Zhu family, shouldn't he be able to tide over the difficulties together?"

"Doesn't he understand that 'if the skin does not exist, the hair will be attached?' The truth? ”

"Wei Daban, what do you say I should do? You've got to help me get an idea. If you can't do anything, how is it different from the blessed king? ”

Wei Zhongxian trembled with fright, and the meaning of the apocalypse was already undoubted.

I want King Fu's family wealth, you quickly think of a way, if you can't think of a way, then you are the same rice bucket as King Fu.

Now that the emperor is obviously ready to open a knife on King Fu, if he is treated as a rice bucket like King Fu, do you still need to think about the consequences?

Wei Zhongxian relied on the Apocalypse to have his current status, and he was naturally towards the Apocalypse, but he was not sure for a while whether Banzai was going to test himself or if he had any other purpose.

Because Banzai said many times before that he had met Taizu, and many decrees were also Taizu's meaning.

However, the feudal system for the vassal king was inherited from Taizu, would Taizu take the initiative to overturn his own decree and let future generations kill each other?

Let's not talk about how likely this is, but the apocalypse has already said so, but he, Wei Zhongxian, has no choice, even if there is a pit in front of him, he has to jump down.

So, after considering the language, he said carefully: "Long live, the slave maid has heard before that King Fu has always been unwilling to accept the defeat of the battle for the country's capital, and the crazy grabbing of wealth over the years actually has other ulterior motives. ”

"As the saying goes, there is no wind and no waves, if you follow this suspicion, you will be able to know whether King Fu has two hearts."

Tianqi's expression froze, and he said quite seriously: "It is not the first time that my Ming Domain King has rebelled, and this must be guarded against. ”

"Wei Daban, I believe you, you can check on my behalf, don't live up to my expectations."

Wei Zhongxian's heart was bitter, but he still hurriedly said: "Yes, long live, the slave and maid will live up to the expectations of Long Life, and they will be investigated to the end." ”
