eldest son of Ming dynasty

(There is an error in the last chapter, which has been revised. During the reign of Hongwu, the king of Han in the Ming Dynasty, Liaodong Kaiyuan was granted, and Yongle was moved to Pingliang, Gansu by Zhu Di in the 22nd year. Because of the battle of Jingnan in the middle, many feudal lords were changed by Zhu Di. The ancestors made it more difficult for us to write.)
Concubine Xian is the most peaceful. In the harem full of beauties, in the end, the person with a pleasing personality will last longer than the emperor.

In order to make the harem harmonious, Zhu Houzhao will try his best to maintain a flat bowl of water, and only work hard to maintain the status of the queen.But there is also a bias in his heart. Recently, things have been troublesome, so he is happy to let Concubine Xian accompany him.

Concubine Xian likes to do some poetry, calligraphy and painting. If she was a man, she might have to take the imperial examination.

Living in the palace for many years, her emotions were always calm, but today the emperor came, which surprised her a little, and quickly ordered her servants to prepare some meals.

Zhu Houzhao came here to escape those rules, so he said with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry, I will eat what kind of food the concubine Xian eats."

"The concubine thought that His Majesty was going to Concubine Shu's place today."

Concubine Shen Shu, the emperor hasn't troubled her recently because of her relatives in Ningxia, because she is pregnant with Liujia and her due date is approaching.

When the emperor arrived here, he unceremoniously found a recliner with a soft blanket to lie down on. It was full of fragrance, which seemed to make people fall asleep. After lying down, he let out a long sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Concubine Xian didn't say any more unnecessary words. The emperor was busy with state affairs, and now he just wanted to clean himself up.So she moved a small stool and sat beside her, and began to hammer the emperor's shoulders with her own hands.

"Recently, is there anything to be happy about?" Zhu Houzhao asked with raised eyebrows, but his eyes did not open.

"Yesterday, my concubine ordered someone to open up two plots of land in the palace, and wanted to plant two peach trees."

This is her pleasure.

"Admiring the peach blossoms?"

The Qingli girl nodded, "One is to appreciate the peach blossoms, and the other is to grow some peaches. When the season comes, His Majesty will have peaches to eat."

"Then grow a few more, so as not to eat enough."

When the emperor said such unnutritive and brainless words, Concubine Xian knew that he was tired, "Your Majesty, why don't you rest for a while?"

"Ah good."

In the evening, when the sun was about to set, Zhu Houzhao was awakened by the sound of rain outside.When he rubbed his head and turned his head to look, he saw Concubine Xian and several court ladies cleaning the xylophone on the other side of the curtain.

He was much more energetic, lifted the thin quilt on his body, and walked over quietly.

Outside is the rainwater falling from the eaves. The rainwater hits the ground and smells like earth. The moist air also gives people a sense of coolness.The tops and bottom skirts of several court ladies, the tops are light blue, and the bottom skirts are dark brown. They don't seem to be very old, and their faces are still tender and pretty. They probably feel happy, chirping and laughing together.

As for Concubine Xian, she has black hair and a soft figure, she is the most eye-catching among this group of women.

"Cough cough."

Zhu Houzhao clenched his fist and coughed lightly, which frightened Concubine Xian and the four court ladies all at once.

They hurriedly turned around, knelt down and said, "Kowtow to the emperor."

"Excuse me, I'm a little hungry, can I have a meal?"

"I've been preparing it all the time, please sit down a little bit, Your Majesty."

By the window, the wooden window was opened, and Zhu Houzhao finally felt more at ease while eating some delicate dishes in the rain.

After eating, he started to be dishonest again, drove the others away, dragged Concubine Xian into his arms and returned her clothes one by one, reached in and touched her, and soon his stiff body became hot and soft.

Afterwards, the two cuddled like this.

Concubine Xian dared to say at this time: "Your Majesty, state affairs are important, but His Majesty's dragon body is even more important. Every time I see His Majesty so tired, I feel distressed and helpless."

"That's nothing. I'm lucky to have such a caring and sweet concubine Xian. Hey, by the way, I've never heard you talk about family affairs. I remember that you have a younger brother and a younger sister, don't you?"

"Your Majesty has a lot of things to do every day, and he still thinks about what they are doing. They are all in their hometown in Suzhou Mansion."

"Oh, Suzhou is a good place, I really want to go for a walk."

Just wait a little longer, until these few things in front of you are settled.

It was still raining outside.

The old people say that after one autumn rain and one cold, after a few more rains, it will be freezing cold.

outside the palace.

The water on the road was stepped on several times, some water droplets fell to the ground, and some were carried away on the trouser legs.

Yan Song bought a house in the capital. He has been an official for five years. His salary is not enough, but it is common to get a little bit of money. As long as people in the capital do not receive special salary, they basically extend their hands and do not make any big troubles. The emperor will not pursue the problem.

Today, the gate of the Yan Mansion was knocked repeatedly, and the people who came were dressed in ripped silks and satins. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that they were poor, but their waists were straight and their backs were straight.

After knocking a few times, an old and ugly face appeared inside, and said in a bad tone: "What are you doing?"

The people standing outside gathered their umbrellas and put them down, cupped their hands and said, "Please inform me, we want to see Yan Suozheng."

"Do you have a greeting card?" The gatekeeper was still not polite.

"Oh, yes."

Just hand it over.

"Who are you?"

"Zhu Kaiyu, Lieutenant of Fengguo in Hanwangfu."

The gatekeeper didn't know what Lieutenant Feng Guo was, but he could still understand the preceding words.

"Oh, then come in and wait."

So I had to go back to the study to find the master.

Unexpectedly, Yan Song was furious when he saw it, "The clan is not allowed to enter the capital privately. This is a big taboo. How dare you put them in the mansion! Do you think I will live a long life, sir! Quick! Get someone to tie them up." Send off the officer!"

Yan Song knew that some vassal princes might 'like' him because of recent events, but he didn't care about those people. Although they were all descendants of Taizu, these Zhu people were different from the one in the palace.

Since Chenghua and Hongzhi, clans from all over the world traveled thousands of miles to report to the capital. People are really poor like ghosts, what kind of rebellion they want to eat.

So the main reason is that some clans with very low titles are quite poor and humble because of the arrears of Zonglu, so they desperately want to go to the capital to ask for salary, and some people even get together.

Yan Song of King Han's Mansion didn't understand either, but the land in Gansu was barren, presumably the local taxes and food could not support the clan's Zong Lu.

Emperor Hongzhi also gave instructions several times that members of the clan should not go overboard if they have problems, but should report them through the officials of the palace.However, the problem of not having enough to eat is the biggest problem, who cares about those who are about to die.

In real history, this problem actually became more serious during the Zhengde and Jiajing years.

The servants of Yan's mansion yelled at Yan Song so much that he was about to return regardless of the rain.

"and many more!"

As soon as he went out, he heard Yan Song call again.

Yan Song was thinking that the emperor personally ordered him to have some disputes and disturbances with Li Mengyang.

As for the consequences, he thought that many people would scold him.

But I didn't think of winning these many "poor clan" allies for myself!
If he ruthlessly tied up all these people and sent them to officials, outsiders would wonder tomorrow, didn't you, Yan Song, protect these people a few days ago?He thought that the court could not move easily.Why did the attitude change overnight?
Although he was confident that he could find a reason to explain it, he was worried that it would spoil the emperor's carefully planned layout.

It's nothing to be gossiped by others, it's easy to lose your head about the bad emperor!
Yan Song suddenly felt that it was tricky, this group of clans had no skills, let alone practical use, did he see it?Damn it!What can I do if I see you?

"Don't catch them. Tell them to go, just say that my lord is not at home."

The servant was embarrassed, "But, the little one just informed them that he is here to ask for the master's life."

"What do you want? Master, I have to report to you immediately where I am going? You just say that the master went out when you didn't know. Isn't this the end?"

"Yes, yes. Xiao understands."

After the people left, Yan Song paced around the room with a sad face.

The issue of the clan is quite complicated.

Some people, because they are still close to the current emperor, and even some are favored, live a luxurious life.For example, the younger brothers of Emperor Hongzhi, such as King Qi and King Xing, were rewarded by Emperor Hongzhi with hundreds of acres of land.

But some people have already made five suits with the emperor, like Han Wang, it has to be traced back to the first generation of Han Wang, when he and Zhu Di were brothers, how many generations have they been by this time?In addition, there are so many people in the family, not to mention that the emperor doesn't know each other, even King Han himself may not be able to recognize them all.

The lives of these people are not guaranteed.

Anyway, it was Zhu Yuanzhang who started to default on Zonglu, and the next few emperors also did it. Of course, Emperor Zhengde would not be relentless.

So to say that restricting the wealth of the vassal king is actually only a part, there are still some people who don't have wealth to limit you.

Or say it is difficult.

But the more difficult it was, the more Yan Song had the urge to do it well for the emperor, and if it was done well, that would be a caring person.

He has already completed the task that the emperor originally gave him, and now he wants to give results that exceed the emperor's expectations.

As for the issue of the clan, it means that the country's taxes cannot support so many people.If you can afford it, who will owe you a salary?
If you can't afford it, you have to feed less.

And raising less, you can't rely on killing. If you find a reason to kill a few today, the bad reputation has not been restored, and there will be a bunch over there.

So there is only one way, some people's salaries cannot be given.

The next day, Yan Song handed over the note to the palace, and he waited for a long time.

Because the emperor was summoning the cabinet and the six ministries and nine ministers, and he was talking about the decree to clean up the eight towns' military settlements, so there was a long delay.

When he went in, the emperor was still twisting while holding his waist.

"Weizhong is here, come, come, sit."

"I dare not."

"Why don't you dare." Zhu Houzhao twisted non-stop, "I just saw these veterans. They have a lot of qualifications and rules. If you are too tired to sit and not move, you should just sit."

The emperor was so close, Yan Song felt at ease, "Your Majesty, I have something to report to Your Majesty today."

"Say."

"Last night, a few clans from the Han Palace came to the minister's residence and wanted to pay their respects to the minister."

Zhu Houzhao was taken aback, "Han Palace? The clan sees you?"

"Exactly."

"Have you seen it?"

Yan Song got up, "How can I have the guts to meet the clan that is not allowed to enter the capital?"

"Actually, it's okay to see them. Just listen to what they want to do."

"The minister dared to guess that he came here to ask for Zonglu."

Zhu Houzhao turned his head around, "It seems that such things happened when the late emperor was around."

"That's right." Saying that, Yan Song knelt down, "Your Majesty, I have a plan that I want to present to Your Majesty."

"Oh?" Zhu Houzhao took a serious look on his face, "Come on, let's talk about it."
