First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 282



Seeing his three sons crying like this, Zhu Yuanzhang felt a little uncomfortable. He wondered if he had neglected them too much these years, but Lao Zhu was determined after all, and it was too late for his sons to think about that at this age. .

What's more, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't regret it, and it will be the same again. The only way to save the Zhu family is to hold the eldest son and suppress the thoughts of the other sons, otherwise the prince will fight among himself and the country will be ruined.

Zhu Yuanzhang patted the second child on the shoulder and said, Don't cry and cry like a woman. After leading the younger brothers to visit your mother, your mother and concubine should be waiting there. Go down.

Zhu Xi also breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to promise, then bowed to his father and brother and led the two younger brothers to retreat. Zhu Biao sent a few steps away, and after the meeting, he looked at his father and said, They have all made progress. I can also help Erchen in the future.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at his heart and soul with satisfaction. After all, the rest of his sons were also his flesh and blood. Even if he didn't love his eldest son as much as he did, he still hoped that their lives would be prosperous. Now Zhu Biao made it clear that he would take care of his brothers. He was very relieved.

In fact, Zhu Biao is reciprocating. He has been favored by everyone since he was a child, and he has never suffered any setbacks. His younger brothers have little ideas but they are respectful to him. How much cruelty can this kind of life make him gas.

What's more, he also watched his younger brothers grow up with his own eyes. There is no reason not to love some of them, and he can't take advantage of them. Let these younger brothers spend their lives in wealth.

The three brothers who came out of the hall took the handkerchief handed over by the maid and touched their faces. They looked at each other a little embarrassedly. The three of them bragged a lot on the way back to Beijing.

Zhu Xi coughed: Let's go, go to Kunning Palace to visit the Queen Mother.

The other two were also serious, and instantly became the noble princes of Tianhuang, but they didn't know that a group of concubines in Kunning Palace were already crying with joy.

Empress Ma waved back the little eunuch sent by Zhu Biao, and then wept to the two concubines who were covering their handkerchiefs: The second, third, and fourth are all promising, and even their father praises them well. Why are you crying, okay? , the children will come later, don't spoil the atmosphere with a happy event.

Concubine Li, the mother-in-law of Zhu Xun and Zhu Xun, cried and said: It's all thanks to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. If the Crown Prince hadn't led them, and with their stubborn temperament, how could they be today? Kowtow.

Zhu Di's mother and concubine also had a cold personality, and didn't have much else. She followed Concubine Li and bowed down and said, The same goes for concubines.

Empress Ma helped them up with her own hands: They are brothers, and they should support each other. Biaoer often told me that his younger brothers have helped him a lot, otherwise he would not be free to patrol the coastal border defense.

The rest of the concubines also persuaded them, but they felt a little sour in their hearts. Those who have no sons are envious, and those who have sons are also envious. It is a good thing for the prince to have the bearing of an elder brother, but their children are too young, and they don't have many opportunities to get close , let alone go out to work together, this will miss any opportunities in the future.

After a while, the three brothers of the Zhu family walked in with their heads held high. They didn't know that the news of their crying runny nose had been specially passed on by their elder brother, and there was naturally a lot of excitement when they entered the room.

In the vestibule palace, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the report sent by the Ministry of Rites. Their people have already welcomed the former Yuan Shedi master Nangaba Zangbu and more than 60 eminent monks accompanied by more than 60 eminent monks in Changde Mansion, and they are now heading to the capital by water. Come here.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked casually, How are you going to deal with this?

Zhu Biao had been prepared for a long time: Multi-feudal public buildings are built, but monks are still used.

Who is Zhu Yuanzhang? As soon as he heard this, he knew that Zhu Biao had no good intentions. If he really followed this policy, then Wusizang (Tibet) would be out of his mind.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and said: There is a Pazhu regime over there, I am afraid he will not accept it.

Zhu Biao narrowed his eyes and said: I look at his administrative methods and feel that this person is conservative, far inferior to his uncle Jiang Qu Jianzan. In troubled times, he doesn't want to use heavy codes, but relies on external forces. Such a person may not have the courage to fight against him. Daming's will.

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said: It's not good to jump to conclusions based on this alone. How do you know that people are not holding back and waiting for a blockbuster.

Zhu Biao said with a smile: The general trend is with me. If you succeed, you will win, and if you lose, you can't be defeated. But if Shakya Jianzan is really a talented and bold generation, then he really can't be tolerated. Let's find a way to get rid of him.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded. He didn't care about the place of Wu Si Zang, as long as they were honest. After all, it was too cold and the management was extremely inconvenient.

The territory of the Yuan Dynasty was large enough, and it was not all lost in the end. With that effort, it is better to manage the existing territory. That is the reality. Zhu Yuanzhang took out a stack of memorials and handed them to Zhu Biao for him to watch.

During this period of time, Zhu Biao was busy dealing with the integration of Wu Si Zang and the government office, while he was busy discussing national policies with the Ministry of Education, and opened countless large and small ones every day.

Zhu Biao had heard the rumors before, but he didn’t pay much attention at that time because he was absent-minded. After reading it briefly, Zhu Biao couldn’t help nodding his head again and again. As expected, a group of smartest people came up with it. Great benefit.

The first one is about salt. Since Guan Zhong of the State of Qi put forward the official mountains and seas policy in the Spring and Autumn Period, the dynasties of all dynasties have basically implemented the official monopoly of salt and iron, especially salt, which has always been the most important thing firmly grasped by the feudal governments of all dynasties. Its monopoly commodities, its income has been an important source of revenue for the governments of all dynasties.

And now the Ming Dynasty is going to implement a new policy, which will open up the thousand-year-old national salt monopoly system and allow private merchants to transport grain to the border in exchange for a salt distribution license Yin Yin. In the future, the imperial court will benefit the people even more. Eat cheap salt, and at the same time solve the problem of private salt trafficking among the people.

Zhu Biao said with a smile: The emperors of all dynasties wanted to hold the salt firmly in their hands. Only the father who loves the people like a son will let go. It really benefits the people.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled slightly, thought for a while and said: Salt is a good thing. When we were young, we always thought about when we could eat meals with salt and oil. It's a pity that our family is poor. Let alone official salt. I can afford a little bit of salt every month...

Zhu Biao was silent for a while and didn't say much, his father didn't need anyone to comfort him, nothing could defeat him, let alone just those things before.

There are such people in the world who take setbacks as supplements. Before he dies, he will only continue to become stronger, as if there is no upper limit. Four years after the founding of the country, Zhu Biao has seen the changes in his father, and his methods of governing the country are getting better and better. The higher the unfathomable.
