Ask the sixth child first, in fact, it is to give the prince enough time to think, at least that's what Zhu Xianming thinks.

In fact, after listening to it for so long from beginning to end, the prince also understood the doorway, which also made him particularly entangled at the moment.

Supporting change is in danger of disrupting the situation, while opposing change can only watch the country decay, and no matter what you choose, you will suffer a lot.

"My son is stupid, this matter is very important, don't dare to say anything!" Zhu Jingyuan said what was in his heart.

These words made Zhu Xianming particularly dissatisfied: "You are the prince, your status is precious, if you dare not say anything, just say it truthfully!" ”

To be honest, if you really want to tell the truth, he Zhu Jingyuan really has an opinion.

"Your Majesty, the retainer thinks ...... Although it is good to reform the old and make the new, it must also be implemented at the right time! ”

Although these words are suspected of repeating the same old tune, they still make Zhu Xianming's eyes shine, just because he has low expectations for the prince.

Thinking of Gao Shuyan's previous comments, Zhu Jingyuan continued: "Now the country is troubled, the northwest Junggar is unruly, the various ministries and leagues are also disrespectful, and there are ...... in the southwest."

Zhu Xianming's good mood gradually faded away from the second sentence of the prince.

A few days ago, the emperor said that now is the time when the holy monarch is reigning and the four seas are peaceful, but the prince seems to be about to die.

Therefore, the prince is always the prince, and ordinary officials will never dare to speak like this, even if they want to speak, they have to be tactfully paved, and then lead to the direction they are pointing.

Seeing that the old man's face was getting more and more ugly, Zhu Jinghong sweated for the prince, but the latter was still talking more and more at the moment.

A few minutes later, the crown prince made a summary with great confidence, saying: "At present, there are many events inside and outside the court, and it is not the right way to change the ancestral system in vain, and I hope that my father will be cautious!" ”

Regardless of the prince's intentions, his words were tantamount to showing his attitude that the East Palace was opposed to reform and restructuring.

There is no doubt that although his words offended people, he also gained a lot of support, and the latter was much more than the former.

But at the same time, he offended the most important person, that is, his own father, His Majesty the Emperor.

The emperor has always had the heart of change, and the scripture banquet was held to test the courtiers, Zhu Jingyuan pretended to be stupid, he could bear it, and the prince's clear attitude against it made him unbearable.

The air in the hall was almost stagnant, and everyone present did not even dare to gasp for breath, for fear that they would bear the emperor's wrath.

Previously, Rui Wang Zhu Jingyuan said the wrong thing, and an official was angry at that time.

Because of this person's intent, the emperor convicted him of dereliction of honor, and then this person was dismissed and repatriated to his hometown.

"Fourth brother, what are you still doing when you're done, come back and sit down!"

When everyone was solemn, Zhu Jinghong's hearty voice was like a heavenly sound, and someone finally broke the deadlock.

Even if he is also a son-in-law, Zhu Jingyuan on the side has to sigh that the old thirteen is a person who has grown in courage, anyway, he doesn't dare to talk nonsense in this situation.

The prince was confused at the moment, and he didn't dare to move when he heard this, but looked at his father with a cold face.

"I said fourth brother, come and sit down, my father still has to ask others!" Zhu Jinghong said again, and even came out to pull the prince back.

This scene can make the ministers sweat for him.

In their thinking, only the queen in the world can do this, and the others are completely asking for trouble by doing so.

"Fourth, fourth, how can you let the thirteenth brother defend you like this!" Zhu Jingyuan was jealous.

And at this moment, Zhu Jingyuan was only endlessly grateful to Zhu Jinghong, and secretly sighed that he really didn't mistake the thirteenth brother.

Of course, the most important thing is that Zhu Jinghong's behavior of defending his brother has been recognized and appreciated by the emperor.

Although from beginning to end, Zhu Xianming had a cold face.

When Zhu Jinghong helped the prince back to his position, the emperor still did not speak, but picked up the teacup on the side, which made the hearts of everyone at the scene hang again.

Fiddling with the enthusiasm that came out of the teacup, Zhu Xianming said slowly: "Old thirteen...... Seeing that you are so reckless and free, do you also have insight into today's events? ”

Hearing this, Zhu Jinghong asked, "Dad...... Are you testing me? ”

"What do you say?"

Hearing this, Zhu Jinghong was not polite, walked into the hall like two brothers, and replied very respectfully: "Dad...... I have listened to all the ministers' words just now, and I think this matter is simple! ”

Hearing this, everyone laughed in their hearts.

The matter discussed just now is related to the lifeblood of the imperial court, and the cabinet ministers and high-ranking officials dare not say it simply, and everyone thinks that Zhu Jinghong is joking.

Emperor Wei and Sanfu Zhao Yushan were very interested in his words at this moment.

"Simple? Let's talk about it! Zhu Xianming asked coldly.

Zhu Jinghong replied: "You have been discussing for a long time, don't you just want to say that the imperial court is short of silver, and you have to find a way to get money!" ”

Although it was said that it was about the government of the Shang monarch, during the debate, everyone combined the reality of the imperial court, so they mentioned the means and goals of the current change.

"One side wants to change the system, and if you want to collect more taxes, the other side says that it involves a lot of money, and you can't act rashly......"

"Speaking of which, it's all in a small circle, and I feel sleepy!"

Seeing Zhu Jinghong's disdainful expression, the officials present were all dissatisfied, but none of them came out to refute.

However, the emperor didn't have so many scruples, and immediately sneered: "Small circle? It seems that you kid has a big mouth! ”

"Dad, it's not that your son has a big tone, it's that your pattern is too small!"

These words are tantamount to scolding everyone at the scene, and Zhu Jinghong has a sense of proportion in his heart.

There's no way, I'm about to start the training of the North Fourth Guard, and it's really uneasy for him not to make some mistakes.

Hearing his words, the courtiers were not angry, but Zhu Xianming couldn't bear it.

"Okay, you have a big pattern, you can talk about it!"

Everyone could hear that the emperor was already furious at the moment, and many people were worried about Zhu Jinghong.

That's right, Zhu Jinghong's words just now offended many people, but a group of Zi Wuxun didn't feel anything about these words, and some of them would worry about Zhu Jinghong.

It can be seen that Zhu Jinghong has tossed several times before and after, and he has unconsciously formed an influence, and he can play a role at a critical moment.

"Dad, my son doesn't read much, and he is not as good at quoting scriptures as they are, so don't blame him for not saying it well!"

Zhu Xianming said in a stern tone: "If you say one more nonsense, go and get twenty court canes now!" ”

"Yes Yes ......"

"To solve the problem of lack of money, either open source or reduce expenditure......"

"Throttling will not last long, and we have to rely on open source to solve the problem!"

"You just said a lot, talking about how to collect taxes, how difficult it is to collect taxes, and if you are thinking about tossing around the land, can't you see anything else?"

"What else?" The Emperor asked.

"For example, if you open the sea to do business with Westerners, if you develop the resources of certain vassal states, you can collect taxes from vassal states at the worst......

At this time, an official spoke: "Thirteenth Master, what you said is too fantastical!" ”

"Why?"

"Take doing business with Westerners as an example, the first one has a sea bandit to trouble, and the barbarians do not pay attention to faith, and the sea is high and the waves are urgent, and if you are not careful, the ship will be destroyed and people will die!"

"This is called a difficulty, it can be overcome if it is a difficulty, how can it be called a fantasy!"

Refuting this sentence, Zhu Jinghong turned to look at everyone, his expression was still confident and high-spirited, which made the emperor on the throne admire his cheek very much.

"The problem you are talking about, in fact, you only need to do one thing well, and you can solve it!"

Immediately, someone said: "Thirteenth Master, the relationship between the major affairs of the court is complicated, you can't play with it!" ”

I only heard Zhu Jinghong rarely say seriously: "As long as I am full of martial arts and virtues, what you said is not a problem!" ”
