In the capital, another emperor, his uncle Guiwang Zhu Changying, had just been appointed as the Grand Zongzheng of the Zongren Mansion and was responsible for managing the affairs of the clan.

In addition to the previous compilation of jade and the recording of trivial matters such as the birth, old age, sickness and death of the children of the clan, Zhu Changying was also responsible for reporting to the emperor the statement requests of the clan, recommending talented people, recording guilt and negligence, and punishing them.

This seems to be a small matter, but it is the first step for Zhu Youxiao to carry out the reform of the clan system.

Now staying in Jingshi, there are Zhu Changying, King Gui, Zhu Changrun, King Hui, and Zhu Changhao, King Rui, but Zhu Youxiao is no longer ready to put them in the place.

Every vassal king became a vassal domain, built a mansion, and gave land and silver, which was a big expense. When he arrived at the locality, he also caused a lot of trouble to the officials and the people. Raising pigs, where is not raising, in the capital is the same.

Of course, if you don't want to be a pig, I will give you the opportunity to show your talents.

Moreover, Zhu Youxiao still has time to come up with a better and more perfect way to settle these uncles. As for the ancestral system, just kidding, isn't reform about breaking the ancestral system and forging ahead!

And Uncle Wei traveled to several provinces, the main purpose was to take back the given land, and then raise funds from the vassal king, that is, to borrow money.

is not as Zhu Changxun thought, Zhu Youxiao really borrowed to save enough reserves for the long-planned Imperial Bank to promote the development of Daming's financial industry.

There is still private money, but you have to keep it to save an emergency. Moreover, Zhu Youxiao is not too reluctant to spend.

As for whether banks can make money? Then you are burying Zhu Youxiao's IQ. Even if this is not his specialty, he understands the general mode of operation.

Moreover, the silver money store that appeared in the middle and late Ming Dynasty is also equivalent to the prototype of the modern bank. The business includes money exchange, deposit and exchange.

However, the prototype is the prototype, and neither the scale and strength, nor the diversity of the business, can be compared with the Imperial Bank planned by Zhu Youxiao.

For example, at that time, there were also exchange bills, which had the nature of banknotes, but they had to be circulated in the money stores of the two places.

You can think about what kind of strength you need to be able to open a joint account in several places, and you can have enough money to pay. As for the money village in the form of guild organization, the Ming Dynasty did not have it.

With the opening of ports in Qingdao, Shanghai, Xiamen, Guangzhou and other places, economic activities have been further strengthened, and merchants will feel the inconvenience and danger of running around with silver.

The reason why he did not issue banknotes directly was also something that Zhu Youxiao was very helpless about. It's really the Ming treasure banknotes that stink too much, which makes people smell and change.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao had to start from scratch, first establish credibility and reputation, and then proceed to the next plan.

Brush and brush, count the banknotes with more energy; Smack, how happy it is to smash a pile of banknotes on people's faces. Do you try to exchange it for silver? It feels completely different!

Of course, this is a bit far ahead, and there should be a process of abolishing and changing the yuan in the middle.

Either way, banks have to be built.

Absorb scattered funds from the society, support industries that the country needs to develop, and provide low-interest loans to the people and farmers who start businesses......

Not to mention making money, just the raising and financing of social funds can promote the industrial and commercial development of Daming.

Zhu Youxiao wrote his grand blueprint on the paper, Wang Tiqian came in to report, and Zhu Changhao, the king of Rui, came to see Xie En.

During the Tang Dynasty, after the death of the emperor, the concubines with children were raised by their children, and those without children had to become nuns, and the ancient Buddha of the green lantern accompanied them for the rest of their lives.

Zhu Youxiao did not make a monk as a nun, but he released the concubine who had children out of the court, lived with his children, and shared his family, which was also a great act of kindness.

Zhu Changhao's mother was a concubine, and in the Wanli Dynasty, both mother and son were not favored. Now that we can be reunited, I am surprised and happy, and I rushed to thank God.

"Uncle Xuanhuang enter the palace!" Zhu Youxiao doesn't have any feelings for this imperial uncle, but he feels strange that he is a good Buddha and not close to women, and I don't know if living with my mother will change.

At this time, there was already a lot of joy in the palace, but there was still a bit of sadness.

Queen Zhang Yan personally came to see off Concubine Duan, and several other concubines were also sincerely happy for Concubine Duan. But when I think of myself, I can't help but feel sentimental.

Concubine Li Zhuang (Dong Li, Zhu Youzhen's adoptive mother) put on her cherished bracelet to Concubine Duan, her eyes were a little bright, but she still smiled and said: "Keep it for a thought, I don't know if I can see it again in the future......"

"Yes, yes." Concubine Duan wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "The emperor is gracious, and he has given him a sign to enter the palace, and the old sister will often come to see you." ”

Concubine Li Zhuang patted Concubine Duan's arm gently, knowing that this was to comfort her. When King Rui becomes a vassal, the heavens are separated, how can there be time to meet?

blames only for his bad life, there is no man and half woman, he can only stay in this cold and lonely palace, and he can't enjoy the joy of family like Concubine Duan.

Other old concubines also stepped forward and sent commemorative things, or envy, sadness, or joy, and so on.

The previous intrigues and all kinds of discord, since moving to this pension palace, I have lost my heart, and I have been consumed by the boring and tasteless cookie-cutter days, and I have gradually faded.

"Mother, when the child grows up and gets married, I will take you out of here." Xiaoba Zhu Huiyuan held her mother's arm, blinked her eyes, and looked at the lively scene.

Concubine Li Kang reached out and touched her daughter's hair dotingly, and she also gave birth to a little hope. The emperor can not remember the old grudges, clean up the Luan Palace, and be very close to Zhu Huiyuan, she is very satisfied.

Now, looking at Concubine Duan's sadness, the joy that can't be concealed, and the sky-high smile of Concubine Zheng who got the news. She also imagined a better life after following her daughter out of this glorious cage with a golden wall.

Zhang Yan gave the reward to Concubine Duan, and talked with other old concubines with laughter, and the courtesy was thoughtful and quite virtuous.

At this time, Wang Tiqian came running and reported to Queen Zhang Yan with a flattering look.

Zhang Yan was slightly stunned at first, but soon laughed heartily.

She walked up to Concubine Li Zhuang, gave a salute, and said with a happy face: "Congratulations to Concubine Zhuang." His Royal Highness will not forget your nurturing grace, and will be approved by Long Live Grace to recognize you as a mother, and will come to take you out to fulfill your filial piety! ”

Concubine Li Zhuang was stunned at first, and then she hid her face and cried, unable to speak.

When Zhu Youzhen was five years old, his mother Liu was offended, and Zhu Changluo ordered him to be killed with a cane, and he was handed over to his mother-in-law Xi Li to raise.

A few years later, Xi Li gave birth to a daughter, the eighth princess Zhu Weiti, who couldn't take care of it, and was raised by another mother, Dong Li, until she became an adult.

Dong Li is Concubine Li Zhuang, who is benevolent and has been raised for a long time, and has a closer relationship with Zhu Youzhen.

In history, Concubine Li Zhuang died at the age of thirty-seven. After Emperor Chongzhen ascended the throne, he remembered the grace of his nurturing, added the title, and rewarded her younger brother Li Chengnei with an official position, and also gave him a thousand hectares of fertile land.

But now, the fate of Concubine Li Zhuang, who is only thirty-five years old, has changed, and the fate of many people has changed.

Because, this is the hole that Zhu Youxiao deliberately left for the concubines. Whoever has relatives and finds a righteous son can take them out of the palace to live.

Several concubines thought of it, but it was not easy to say, and they stepped forward to comfort and congratulate Concubine Li Zhuang, and their mood was very different from just now.
