Zhu Yunxi didn't pay attention to the exclamations of the uncles, in fact, this map was not perfect in his opinion, but he drew it with his dreaming skills, and there were many inconsistencies with the current Ming Dynasty.

Six hundred years of vicissitudes, mountains and rivers are enough to divert several times, how can it be perfect.

Speaking of Chongming Island at the mouth of the Yangtze River, Daming at this time was just a sandbar.

Zhu Yunxi looked at the map and moved an inch up along the mouth of the Yellow River.

"Here's it!"

"I think it's a good place to mine and make steel!"

Zhu Di hurriedly looked over when he heard this, his eyes were full of greed.

If Yandi has his own steel mill, then after a hundred years of the old man, won't he have a chance of winning?

The other vassal kings also showed envy and jealousy, they also wanted to open mines, and they also wanted to make steel!

After Zhu Di withdrew his greedy gaze, his brain instantly regained a little calm.

"Can you really make steel?"

"Of course!"

"Da Ming is not my alone Da Ming, it is the Da Ming of the world!"

"As long as the people of Daming are willing, everyone can make steel!"

When Zhu Di heard his eldest nephew say this, he excitedly held the other party's hand and choked up.

"Lonely...... Lone is so touched, woo woo woo ......"

Zhu Yunxi doesn't eat Zhu Di's set, if Zhu Gui says this kind of thing, he probably can still believe it. As for Zhu Di, another person who believed in him finally set a fire and became a monk......

Seeing this, the others also tentatively asked, but Zhu Yunxi did not refuse to come, and marked them on the map regardless of whether they were familiar with it before, and let them go home to build a steel mill.

Everyone was satisfied with a meal, and their hearts were full of joy, only Lao Zhu's face was gloomy, and the word unhappy was written on his face.

But Lao Zhu held back until he led his sons to dinner and sent all his sons away, then he ordered someone to close the door and beat his grandson.

"Let's kill you rebel grandson!"

Lao Zhu didn't know where to pull out a beating stick, and hit Zhu Yunxi's ass with a hard blow, so that Zhu Yunxi jumped up with a "whoop".

"Old Zhutou, what kind of madness are you!"

"Do you know why salt and iron are monopolized?"

"You know, isn't it just the court trying to make more money......

"Bad money?"

Lao Zhu almost turned his back on anger when he heard this, raised his stick and smoked it.

"Let's beat you up for bad money!"

"Do you know that once you let go of these two things, we will make a big mess!"

"Your uncles are already restless, and if you give them the power of salt and iron, won't it fuel their ambitions?"

When Lao Zhu said this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought of a possibility.

"Reverse Sun!"

"You shouldn't be thinking about Zheng Boke and Duan Yuyan, right?"

The so-called Zheng Boke Duan Yu Yan refers to the Spring and Autumn Period when Zheng Guojun indulged his younger brother Gongshu Duan, until he indulged him to the point of tearing the flag and rebelling, he sent troops to quell the rebellion, and then took advantage of the chaos to kill him.

Later generations commented that he was insidious and black-bellied, and deliberately ignored his younger brother, causing his younger brother to commit a great crime and then execute him.

Zhu Yunxi was not happy on the spot when he heard that Lao Zhu had buckled up such a big black pot.

"Grandpa Huang, it's too unreasonable for you to say that!"

"We have to theorize today, whether it is you, the conniving son who is the father, or the conniving uncle who is my nephew!"

"Look at the bullshit ancestral precepts you wrote, and don't let the courtiers sue, whoever sues will kill whom, this is what people do?"

"According to this ancestral precept formulated by you, my fourth uncle and they led the troops to Jinling City, and the courtiers did not dare to tell me that the fourth uncle rebelled!"

When Lao Zhu heard the eldest grandson accuse himself like this, the old face was angry with pig liver, and he didn't explain to the opposite grandson, he raised his stick to beat Sun and beat him.

However, Zhu Yunxi is not stupid, how can he stand in place and be beaten in a daze?

Therefore, a trick of the grandfather chasing his grandson was staged again in the hall, until Lao Zhu was so tired that he was out of breath, and then he opened his mouth to say mercy to the eldest grandson.

"Don't run, let's ...... We're not going to beat you......"

Zhu Yunxi showed a face from behind the pillar and grimaced at old Zhu Lualua.

"Believe you, a ghost!"

When Lao Zhu heard such rebellious words, he just rolled his eyes helplessly, and then threw aside the beating stick in his hand.

"Believe it or not!"

Zhu Yunxi saw that Lao Zhu threw the stick, so he stepped forward with a smile.

"Grandpa Huang is tired, right?"

"Lao Qin is still stupid, why don't you serve tea to the emperor's grandfather!"

Qin Deshun watched the excitement on the side for a while, and when he saw that the pair of grandfathers and grandsons were done making a fuss, he hurriedly ordered someone to serve tea.

"Here we go!"

"Here comes the slave!"

"Would you like the imperial grandson to have a cup too?"

Zhu Yunxi glanced at him, and he didn't have a good air.

"What do you say?"

"I've just run so many laps, and my throat is smoking!"

Qin Deshun was joking with Zhu Yunxi, and when he heard Zhu Yunxi say this, he hurriedly brought him a cup of tea.

Lao Zhu drank a few sips of tea, and then he felt a little refreshed. It was only when he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the rebel grandson blowing tea leaves, and the extinguished dragon fire boiled again.

But now, even if you want to fight against Sun, you have nothing to do, so you can only stretch out your legs and kick a few times to get angry.

"Have you ever thought that once your uncle Wang has a steelmaking workshop, he will continue to make weapons and armor?"

"Shh......h

Zhu Yunxi blew on the teacup, and then said slowly.

"Of course I thought about it, but I don't care about ......"

"The future is the era of hot weapons, and cold weapons are outdated. Even if they play with flowers, they can't stop my army of firearms! ”

Lao Zhu's heart was a little more relieved when he heard this, he had seen the power of the firearms battalion against his grandson, and knew that this grandson was not bragging.

It's just that in his opinion, firearms still have many defects, such as being affected by rainy and windy weather, and their performance is far less stable than that of bows and arrows, knives and guns.

"Your firearms are indeed powerful, but you still have to watch out."

"Even if it's your own flesh and blood, you have to guard against it, let alone the uncles who are separated by a layer?"

When Zhu Yunxi heard Lao Zhu say this, he looked at Lao Zhu with a surprised face.

"Grandpa Huang, are you provoking my relationship with Uncle Wang?"

When Lao Zhu heard this, he couldn't wait to slap this rebel grandson who didn't know what to do, he was obviously thinking about him!

】

"Humph!"

"I'm too lazy to take care of you, what do you like, don't regret it if something happens in the future!"

When Zhu Yunxi saw Lao Zhu like this, he immediately leaned forward with his face on his face, sat next to Lao Zhu and beat his legs.

"My grandson knows that Grandpa Huang is worried about me, worried that I won't be able to control those uncles."

"But the imperial grandfather can rest assured, you are still worried about your sons, the grandson has already made up his mind, hehehe......"

As soon as Lao Zhu heard the laughter of the rebel grandson, he knew that the rebel grandson did not hold back his fart.

"Do you have some conspiracy?"

"Nope!"

"I, Zhu Yunxi, act above board, how can there be any conspiracy?"

"Then why did you give up such a lucrative steelmaking workshop?"

"Make money?"

Zhu Yunxi almost cried to death in his heart when he heard this, everyone saw his steelmaking workshop making money, only he knew that he was losing so much that he couldn't wear his pants.

Because most of the steel made in the steelmaking workshop was thrown by him on the railway!

The railroad is a gold-swallowing beast, no amount of money is enough to feed, and there is no profit in the short term!

The reason why he fooled the uncles of Wang to make steel was just to make himself lose less......

Zhu Yunxi cleaned up his sad mood and squeezed out a bright smile at Lao Zhu.

"Earn money!"

"My grandson is numb!"

"Doesn't my grandson feel sorry for Uncle Wang, I want them to earn more money, so that they don't always have to keep an eye on the income from farming......"

Lao Zhu was skeptical of Zhu Yunxi's words, or didn't believe them at all.

It's just that he pondered for a while, and he didn't understand what this grandson had in mind, so he could only believe in his ghost.

"Okay!"

"I hope you will be merciful to your uncles."

"By the way, you just said that your fourth uncle entered Jinling City?"

"Is there one?"

"That's what you just said!"

"Oooh oh ......"

Zhu Yunxi showed an expression of sudden realization.

"Grandson just made an analogy, let's say the fourth uncle entered Jinling City......"

Lao Zhu was stunned when he heard this.

"Not the analogy!"

"Besides, even if it's an analogy, why don't you talk about your third uncle, why do you have to say what your fourth uncle does, do you have any prejudices against your fourth uncle?"

Zhu Yunxi's eyes were rolling for a while, wondering if he would reveal Zhu Di's old bottom. But when I thought that Zhu Di was quite respectful at present, and it was difficult to say what would happen in the future, I temporarily extinguished this thought.

"Nope!"

"How can a grandson have a prejudice against the fourth uncle?"

Lao Zhu stared at the eldest grandson for a long time, and when he saw that the eldest grandson did not seem to be a fake, he sighed leisurely.

"It's not easy for your fourth uncle to defend Beiping, don't look at taking advantage of a Yuan Dadu, but Yuan Dadu has been in disrepair for a long time, and it has experienced war, so it has long been dilapidated......"

"Besides, your fourth uncle is a little arrogant......"

"This can't be blamed on him, people with a little ability are proud. You have to make good use of it, as long as your fourth uncle is in Beiping, you will never have to worry that the Northern Yuan cavalry will come in from Beiping! ”

Zhu Yunxi nodded like a chicken pecking rice when he heard this.

"Uh-huh!"

"Grandson understands!"

Lao Zhu saw him say this, so he waved his hand at him.

"Get out!"

"Let's celebrate our birthday in two days, if it's not lively, let's settle accounts with you again!"

Zhu Yunxi immediately showed a confident smile when he heard this.

"Grandpa Huang, rest assured, my grandson promises to give you an unforgettable birthday banquet!"

"Grandson is leaving?"

"Get out!"

Lao Zhu looked at the back of the eldest grandson step by step, with a long-lost smile on his face, and he was a little more looking forward to the upcoming birthday banquet.

When the vassal kings returned to their mansions, they were still immersed in the excitement of being able to make steel and sell salt.

However, their excitement didn't last long before they were blown away by the pillow wind of the princesses.

"Lord, have you heard, the imperial grandson wants to cut the feudal domain, cut off the clan raid system formulated by his father, and in the future, there will be no titles such as auxiliary generals and Fengguo generals in the Ming Dynasty!"

"And we will also halve our prince's salary, and detain the prince and other princes in the capital to study and join the army, and only after passing the exam and making military exploits can we inherit the throne......"

Zhu Zhen, the king of Chu, listened to what his princess said, and the look of disbelief on his face gradually turned into suspicion.

"Who are you listening to?"

"Lone just came out of the palace, and you know what Lone doesn't know?"

"Oh, don't ask the concubine where you heard it, the concubine heard that this matter has spread all over the capital."

"People in the market say that Zhu Yunxi's child is the reincarnation of the greedy wolf star, and he is the most vicious and ruthless, and he naturally likes to eat alone!"

He first made an official gentry to pay for food, and offended the officials of the world miserably. Later, he looked at the savings of Buddhist temples and Taoist temples, and snatched a large piece of meat from under the hands of the Buddha and Sanqing. ”

"Now I'm eyeing our clan ...... again"

"It's okay for the two of us to say, it's just to save some flowers. But what will our children and grandchildren do in the future, do you really want to stay in the capital as hostages, and then be sent to the battlefield by Zhu Yunxi to fight, woo woo woo woo ...... "

Zhu Zhen was upset by the princess's crying, and roared angrily by pulling her neck.

"Shut up!"

"I don't have a word for it, I know that I am scaring myself!"

After Zhu Zhen said this, he pushed the princess away, and then jumped off the bed.

"Lord, are you going to ...... so late?"

"Ask the third brother alone!"

"The third brother is the most advanced in Beijing, if there is such a thing, the third brother must know it!"

When the princess heard this, she immediately dissuaded.

"The prince must not!"

"The concubine heard that the third brother discussed this matter with the imperial grandson, if you go to him, won't you fall into the net?"

"Who is Lone going to?"

"Fourth brother?"

"Fifth brother...... Fifth brother can't ......"

"Why don't you ask the other younger brothers and ask them if they have heard about it?"

Zhu Zhen's eyes lit up when he heard this.

"That's right!"

"Zhu Gui and Zhu Yunxi have always been close, go and ask him alone, he must know about it!"

The same thing happened in other palaces, and when Zhu Gui returned home, he also heard his princess mention it.

It's just that compared with Princess Chu's determination, Princess Xu Miaoqing just mentioned it casually.

"Lord, the concubine went back to her parents' house today, and I heard my sister-in-law mention one thing......"

Zhu Gui was drinking the sobering soup at this time, and suddenly his ears couldn't help but prick up when he heard this.

Xu Miaoqing has never been a person who likes to chew the root of her tongue, since she took the initiative to speak, it is definitely not an ordinary thing.

"What?"

"Lord, this thing can't be done accurately, but the people of the capital spread it a little fiercely, saying that the imperial grandson seems to want to cut off some clan titles and reduce the lower clans and vassal kings."

Zhu Gui didn't care when he heard this.

"Hey!"

"What a big deal do you think Lonely, it turns out to be such a trivial matter."

"Besides, when will we expect Yulu to live on behalf of the king's mansion?"

"Your housekeeper in the past two years, you know the income of our palace, basically most of it is earned with Zhu Yunxi, which is much more than the income of our Yulu and fiefdoms......

Xu Miaoqing nodded when he heard this.

"yes!"

"In any case, the imperial grandson is kind to our royal palace, and the annual dividend is 200,000 taels of silver, which is enough for our palace internal and external expenses."

"Just ......"

Xu Miaoqing touched her belly, and then looked at the sleeping eldest son in the rocking car, her eyes were full of complex and indescribable meaning.

Zhu Gui saw that Xu Miaoqing was suddenly silent, and hurriedly raised his eyes to look over, and saw his daughter-in-law looking at her son in the rocking car, still touching her stomach with one hand, and her face showed a burst of joy.

"But again?"

Xu Miaoqing blushed when she heard this, and whispered "um".

"With ......"

Zhu Gui jumped up on the spot when he heard this, stepped forward and hugged his daughter-in-law and was about to turn in circles, but his daughter-in-law broke free.

"Tap!"

"The doctor said that it is not yet a month, and you can't exercise vigorously!"

Hearing this, Zhu Gui hurriedly put down his daughter-in-law lightly, and then stupidly lay on his daughter-in-law's belly to listen.

Xu Miaoqing saw him so stupid, and pushed him aside with a look of disgust.

"You've also been a father once, how can you not know that you can't hear anything now?"

"Stay and let someone stay with you at night!"

Seeing Xu Miaoqing say this, Zhu Gui hurriedly went up again, picked up his daughter-in-law and went to bed.

"Don't!"

"Lone will guard you until our son is born!"

Although Xu Miaoqing's face was full of disgust, she was still very happy in her heart.

"Then you are not allowed to touch me, and you are not allowed to hurt my son!"

"Lone Promise!"

"Lone just sleeps with you in his arms and doesn't do anything!"

Just as Zhu Gui was happily sleeping with his daughter-in-law in his arms, fantasizing about his dream of having another son, the urgent call of the palace eunuch came from outside the door.

"Lord Wang, someone asked to see ......"

"Nope!"

"Today is the king of heaven, Lao Tzu is here, and I don't want to see this king!"

"Lord Wang, the person who came is His Royal Highness the King of Chu......"

"King Chu?"

Zhu Gui got up from the bed as soon as he heard this, his face full of suspicion.

"Lone doesn't have much contact with the King of Chu, why did he suddenly come to find Lone?"

Xu Miaoqing said tentatively.

"Could it be the rumored slashing of the knight?"

"Sixth brother also heard the rumors?"
