my brother-in-law is the prince

Chapter 17
Seeing that he was an acquaintance, Zhang Anshi immediately became furious, and stopped begging for mercy, cursing angrily: "Despicable and shameless, I thought you were good people, but who would have thought that you were robbers, robbing civilian men in broad daylight, I tell you, you make mistakes I'm dead, my brother is the famous second murderer in the capital, today I lost a vellus hair, when the time comes, take care of your skin!"

"Shut up!" The seven or eight men on the side suddenly became murderous.

It is really murderous, especially the man next to Zhang Anshi, who looks short in stature, but what is revealed in his eyes is like a sharp knife out of its sheath. His whole body is tense, as if he is about to strike at the next moment: " How dare you talk to... my master like this!"

His master, who is it not Zhu Di?
Zhu Di was still sitting high, with a half-smile, playing with the wine glass in his hand.

Zhang Anshi saw that this trick didn't work, and immediately said sincerely: "I'm sorry, I was wrong, I was young and ignorant, I don't know the heights of heaven and earth, please forgive me."

Zhu Di had a playful look just now, but when he saw Zhang Anshi became sincere in a blink of an eye, Zhu Di couldn't help but have a different look in his eyes.

Zhu Di said: "Come, sit down and drink."

"Okay." Zhang Anshi took his seat obediently.

Zhu Di said: "You just said what the two culprits in the capital are, but you don't know which two culprits they are."

Zhang Anshi said: "I can't say now, but one day you will know how powerful they are."

Zhu Di said quickly: "A few days ago, you said with certainty that the banknotes would plummet, but in the past few days, it has really plummeted. Guo Degan, let me ask you, what is the reason?"

Zhang Anshi said heartily... so he came to ask this question, why don't you tell me earlier, you come to visit me with courtesy and ask me for advice, wouldn't I tell you?

Just glanced at the vicious men around him, Zhang Anshi said without much hesitation: "It's easy, it comes from expectations, people don't trust treasures, and now the imperial court suddenly wants to ban money transactions. I'm afraid that the imperial court is going to overprint precious banknotes again, and the silver money transaction has never been rejected in all dynasties, so... everyone tried their best to exchange the precious banknotes into silver coins. Besides, the more the court issued a ban, the more people panicked. At the end of the day, it’s a question of credibility.”

Zhu Di frowned lightly: "Could it be that the decree is promulgated, but it can't win the trust of the world?"

Zhang Anshi smiled and said: "Of course the people in the world dare not disobey the decree, but..."

"But what?" Zhu Di continued to ask.

Zhang Anshi said: "But the common people have really saved money."

Zhu Di: "..."

Zhang Anshi said: "As long as it doesn't touch the interests of everyone, once this decree is issued, of course there is nothing wrong with it. But this decree involves the life savings of countless people, and it is the family business of several generations. As long as one person If you rush to exchange money, there must be countless people following, after all... even the imperial decree cannot stop the wishes of the people in the world, it is like cutting off the water with a knife, can the knife be sharp enough to cut off the river?"

After Zhu Di listened, he was thoughtful.

Zhang Anshi looked at him cautiously: "Brother, it must be that a lot of treasures have been thrown into your hands."

The guard on the side shouted sharply: "Bold!"

Zhu Di glared at the guard, but the guard fell silent.

Zhu Di said: "To tell you the truth, there are really a lot of treasures in your hands."

"how many?"

Zhu Di glanced at Zhang Anshi, thinking: I can print hundreds of thousands of guan, do you believe it?

Seeing that Zhu Di remained silent, Zhang Anshi sighed and said, "Brother, let's mourn, suffering is a blessing."

Zhu Di glared at him: "It's not you who suffer, of course you can say that."

"This……"

"Then how do you stabilize the value of the treasure?"

Zhang Anshi said: "This... is more complicated. If paper money is to be accepted by people, it must first establish credit, and at the same time it must be linked to certain necessities in reality, such as... firewood, rice, oil and salt... In addition, there must be Restraining one's desire to overprint, of course...a recovery mechanism is needed, or...a pool for water storage."

"A pool of water?"

"It's very complicated here, and I won't be able to explain it clearly for a while. Besides, this is not something you and I can worry about. Dude, I see that you are not an ordinary person. I think you must be some important person in Nanjing, whether it is the Duke of the State, or Marquis? It can't be the emperor's relative."

Zhang Anshi carefully probed the other party's tone, hoping to find some clues.

Zhu Di smiled and said: "I don't inquire about you, and you don't inquire about me either. You and I met by chance, and it's just because of fate."

Zhang Anshi resisted rolling his eyes at him, and said in his heart, because of your size, I was kidnapped.

At this time, Zhu Di said again: "By the way, last time I heard you said to deliver medicine to the Zhang family, what, how effective is the medicine?"

Zhang Anshi said: "Don't you know? The effect of my medicine is amazing. In one night, my friend's injury was healed."

Zhu Di pretended to be surprised: "Really?"

"Brother, if you don't believe me, you can go to Zhang's house to inquire! I'm not bragging, I'm not exaggerating when I say it's a panacea. In this world... When it comes to curing diseases and saving lives, who can compare to me? You go out and inquire about me, Guo Degan." , no one would not admire it! Of course, I am not a person who is greedy for vanity, so you better stop asking."

Zhu Di had a thought: "This medicine of yours can only cure trauma. If someone has a cough that cannot be cured for a long time, and the body is weak, can it also be cured?"

Zhang Anshi subconsciously said, "You mean pneumonia? Do you often cough, produce phlegm, occasionally have a low-grade fever, lose your appetite, and lose weight?"

Zhu Di said, "Is this disease called pneumonia?"

Zhu Di was thoughtful, and seemed to want to pull those people out of the Tai Hospital to beat him up again, but in an instant, his heart beat, and he glanced at Zhang Anshi with a look of expectation, and said in his mouth: "This disease...does your medicine work?"

"It doesn't work!" Zhang Anshi said: "My medicine is applied externally, it cannot be taken internally, it treats trauma."

Zhu Di was suddenly lost.

Zhang Anshi saw something from Zhu Di's expression, and said in his mouth: "However, if this medicine is improved and taken internally, it may have a miraculous effect."

"Really!" Zhu Di suddenly let out a low growl.

This time, Zhang Anshi was so frightened that he almost blurted out the words "hero, spare his life".

"This...this...brother, can you stop being startled, come on, my brother sees that you are imposing, and you are not a mortal at first glance, my brother is sincerely convinced, and I will toast you."

Zhang Anshi picked up his wine glass.

But Zhu Di didn't respond at all, still staring at Zhang Anshi.

Zhu Di never expected that the medicine for treating sores could also cure internal injuries.

The most important thing is that his first wife, Empress Xu, has been suffering from lung discomfort for more than a year, and the symptoms are probably exactly the same as what Zhang Anshi said.

And Zhu Di and Empress Xu have a deep love between husband and wife. You must know that in the Yongle Dynasty, Zhu Di's three sons, from the prince Zhu Gaochi, to the Han king Zhu Gaoxu, and the Zhao king Zhu Gaosui, were all born to Empress Xu. There are no other sons anymore, which shows how far his relationship with Empress Xu is.

Needless to say, Empress Xu is the daughter of Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan, and when Xu Da was alive, she could almost be regarded as Zhu Di's mentor. It was Xu Da who taught him the art of war, and even taught him the principles of dealing with people and controlling soldiers. It can also be said that they are brothers and sisters who grew up with childhood sweethearts.

But over the past year, Empress Xu's body has become weaker and weaker, and she has been coughing all the year round, causing her body to become thinner and thinner, to the point where she has been bedridden for several months.

Zhu Di was naturally anxious. Although he searched for prescriptions and medicines, he couldn't find a way to recover.

In fact, in history, Empress Xu passed away at the beginning of the fifth year of Yongle, and it was only two years from now. In the past few years before her death, her body has been weak and tortured by illness.

Now that Zhu Di finally caught a life-saving straw, how could he let it go?

Zhu Di stared at Zhang Anshi steadfastly, which made Zhang Anshi shudder.
