The prince's attitude is rare and firm.

For a long time, people's impression of Zhu Gaochi has always been the word benevolence, as if no matter what happens, his opinions have always been dealt with strictly.

This severity does not mean that the conviction should be strictly convicted and dealt with seriously, but that it should be properly investigated to ensure that there will be no unjust imprisonment, and even when it comes to the final conviction and sentencing, it will be dealt with lightly.

But this time, his tone was unusually firm, and there was no room for maneuvering.

Zhu Zhanyan felt that there was nothing to say about this.

This Gu Wang is a rebellion, threatening the dominance of Zhu Di's lineage, and the crown prince is the next emperor, so it can be said that he is the most direct victim.

To put it bluntly, it's all for their own interests.

Besides, the current emperor is not him, King Gu wants to overthrow the emperor, can you not consider what the emperor thinks?

After getting Zhu Gaochi's "suggestion", Zhu Di nodded with satisfaction, and then habitually turned his head to look at Zhu Zhanchi.

Zhu Zhanyan shrugged.

……

Zhu Di sighed slightly.

"Zhan Yan, you ......" Zhu Di spoke, but seemed to think of something, and then said.

"Forget it, you can go back and rest first."

"The grandson is leaving." Zhu Zhanyan didn't hesitate at all, got up and saluted directly, and then left directly.

Nonsense! What are you waiting for if you don't run at this time?

The old man obviously wanted to say something to himself just now, but at this time, what could the old man say?

Ask for his opinion? Let's talk about the calf, who doesn't know his Zhu Zhanyan's style of acting in the world? Isn't asking him the same as asking in vain?

This is something that everyone in the world knows, can the old man not know?

So what else can there be other than asking for an opinion about Jianzhou Wei?

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanyan couldn't help but speed up his pace.

The number of times he was used as a gun was too much, which not only made Zhu Zhanyan feel disgusted, but even made him make a choice that he would not have done before.

Jiannu used to be the person he swore to deal with, but the previous Jianzhou Wei had always been very quiet, and there was no action, so he couldn't attack directly for no reason.

If it was before, if he was still in Yingtian, if the old man was not so partial, if the old man didn't take him to the back of the black pot and throw it aside......

Perhaps, Zhu Zhanyan is quite willing to clean up Jiannu.

But now, even if it is Jiannu, he is unwilling.

To be realistic, Jiannu can clean it up in the future, but why should he clean it up now? Clear all obstacles for the orthodox heir and throw it aside like garbage?

Why?

Picking up Jiannu, Zhu Zhanyan didn't feel that he could get any benefits other than psychological satisfaction.

Cleaning up Jiannu is to clear the obstacles for the orthodox heirs of the people, and the places that are beaten down are all from the imperial court, even if the old man promised him, but Jianzhou Wei is so far away from Yunnan, and it is hard to govern, it is better not to take it.

Yes, the Northeast Plain is indeed fertile, but development also requires great manpower and material resources, not to mention that it is still the Xiaoice River period, where it is cold to death.

Back at the Zongren Mansion, Zhu Zhanyan directly began to ask people to pack up their things and prepare to return.

It's enough to see the excitement, he doesn't plan to stay in Yingtian for long, so as not to burn to himself when the time comes.

It's good to watch the excitement, Zhu Zhanyan likes it very much, but he doesn't want to watch it, and in the end he becomes that lively.

Before leaving, Zhu Zhanyan went to the household department.

It is said that it is for the cost of living during the period in Beijing, after all, in the Ming Dynasty, the consumption of the feudal king entering Beijing is paid by the household department.

However, this matter actually does not need Zhu Zhanyan to come over in person, but Zhu Zhanyan is here now, so there is naturally something wrong.

"Is the prince really going back?" Zhu Zhanyan's decision obviously disappointed Xia Yuanji.

Previously, although Xia Yuanji knew that it was impossible, he still had the illusion that Zhu Zhanyan could stay in Yingtian, because the pressure that Zhu Zhanyan relieved on the household department was something that no one could do before.

Although he also knew that this was impossible, Xia Yuanji couldn't help but fantasize about it.

People are like this, even if they know it's impossible, they still can't help but fantasize.

"I stayed in the capital for too long, if it weren't for the matter of King Gu, I would have left as early as the end of my cousin's wedding."

Zhu Zhanyan wants to laugh every time he sees Xia Yuanji now, because apart from Xia Yuanji, no one in this Ming Dynasty cares about him because of money.

This feeling...... Well, how to say it? It's a novelty, isn't it?

"I came to find you this time, firstly, to say goodbye to you, after all, there are not many people who can talk to me in this Ying Tian, you are one."

"Well, I just have an opinion to talk to you about."

"Your Royal Highness, please speak." As soon as he mentioned business, Xia Yuanji immediately sat up straight and got serious.

"I've come to you this time mainly for the new grain." Zhu Zhanyan took out a fold from his sleeve pocket and put it in front of Xia Yuanji.

"Previously, I had sent someone to Yingtian to deliver seeds for new grain, and there were two kinds of seeds in total, and I also told the emperor's grandfather that corn doesn't matter, but sweet potatoes must not be released in advance."

"I don't know ...... now"

"Your Royal Highness, rest assured!" Xia Yuanji knows this matter very well, because although this matter is no longer directly under the household department because of Zhu Zhanji's order, but the specific situation, he Xia Yuanji still knows.

First, because Xia Yuanji is indeed an old minister, second, because Xia Yuanji has done a very good job in the position of the head of the household, and third, it is ......

Zhu Zhanyan trusts him very much, which can be regarded as a gesture of favor by Zhu Di to Zhu Zhanyan.

"Previously, because of your Royal Highness, Your Majesty has not distributed sweet potato seeds, and it has always been managed by the imperial court itself.

"So far, it can't be said that sweet potatoes have not flowed out, but there are definitely very few."

"I know." Zhu Zhanyan nodded, and pushed the fold in front of him forward again.

"But this time, I'm not asking you to strengthen the supervision of sweet potatoes, but asking you to tell the imperial grandfather that sweet potatoes can be released, which is an excerpt written by my own hand."

It is impossible for Zhu Zhanyan not to pay attention to the matter of sweet potatoes, he didn't dare to say that it was every moment before, but every year he would pay special attention to the news about high-yield grain.

After all, sweet potatoes are the only thing that could disrupt or even nullify all of his plans.

"Let go?" Natsuhara was stunned for a moment, but then ecstatic.

"Your Highness! What are you talking about...... What does it mean to let go? Is it that everyone can grow in the Ming Dynasty? ”

"Yes." Zhu Zhanyan smiled and nodded.

After getting to know it carefully, Xia Yuanji is still quite interesting, he can be regarded as a person with a pure heart, he will be happy whenever he encounters something that is beneficial to the treasury, and the degree of happiness changes due to the changes in the benefits that the treasury can get.

"Is it the kind that can be distributed to the people and cultivated at will?" Xia Yuanji asked with some unease.

"Yes." Zhu Zhanyan nodded again, but this time he also opened his mouth to add something.

"I'm saying you can come at will, but it's not the same as the previous corn method."

"Your Highness, please speak." Xia Yuanji's expression was extremely serious, because he knew very well what it meant.

"Wei Zhe, you are the head of the household, you know the yield of sweet potatoes, and now that it is in the hands of the imperial court, we can still maintain it, at least we will not let others get too much."

"But once you let go, it's uncontrollable, Wei Zhe is the head of the household, this should not need me to say in detail."

"Yes, Wei Zhe has thought about this before." Xia Yuanji's face became more and more serious, because he had thought about this question before.

"Your Royal Highness, you ...... now"

"So, there are two things you need to do, and I have written them all in this excerpt." Zhu Zhanyan pointed to the excerpt.

"The first is the scope of control, and the first and all the areas that will be released in the future will still be the area around Tianfu."

"This is close to Yingtian, in case something happens, it is easy to react, and secondly, the land along the Yangtze River is relatively fertile, it is the land of fish and rice, and the yield can also be guaranteed."

"This should be fine." Xia Yuanji nodded, he still knew what kind of results he would get from the yield of sweet potatoes.

"However, this may ...... Not enough, right? ”

"Well, so there's a second point." Zhu Zhanyan stretched out two fingers.

"Second, the tax of the Ming Dynasty must not collect sweet potatoes! Certain! No matter how much! ”

Zhu Zhanyan knows very well that rice and wheat are the real reserves, and although the current yield of sweet potatoes is very high, it is a practice of drying up and fishing, and if it were not for external expansion and coping with the arrival of the Xiaoice period, Zhu Zhanyan would not have promoted sweet potatoes on such a large scale.

"Wei Zhe knows." Xia Yuanji nodded, put away the fold, then raised his head and looked at Zhu Zhanyan quietly.

"Huh? Anything else? Zhu Zhanyan was about to get up and say goodbye, but Xia Yuanji's gaze made him pause.

Xia Yuanji didn't speak, just looked at Zhu Zhanyan quietly, as if he wanted to see something.

I don't know how long it took, Zhu Zhanyan looked at Xia Yuanji with a confused face, and was about to say something, but Xia Yuanji sighed lightly.

"Your Royal Highness, take care of ...... all the way"

Natsuharaji's voice was full of frustration, full of disappointment and ...... Pity?

In Yingtian, Xia Yuanji may not know Zhu Zhanyan best, but he is also relatively the most knowledgeable, and in this regard, even Zhu Di may not be as good as him.

Zhu Zhanyan was able to stay in Yingtian for so long this time because of the problem of the King of the Valley, and now the matter of the King of the Valley has not been solved (what Jinyiwei did, the outside world does not know), but Zhu Zhanyan has to leave in a hurry.

Xia Yuanji guessed that Zhu Di wanted Zhu Zhanyan to do something again, but Zhu Zhanyan was very disgusted, such as the previous grassland and the Japanese country, which eventually caused Zhu Zhanyan to leave in such a hurry.

Thinking of this, Xia Yuanji couldn't help but sigh again.
