Domineering Daming

This kind of reason seems to be right, why is it not another kind of delay, there will inevitably be new excuses after a few years!

Bi Ziyan's face was indifferent, and he said: "The emperor told me before that he planned to form a law enforcement team under the Governor's Council to deal with tax resistance. Let's have a look first, and if necessary, we will form it!"

In the Ming Dynasty, natural disasters continued in recent years, and nothing grew on the ground. Many people resisted taxes. It can be said that most of the civil uprisings came from this.But the law enforcement team they are talking about now is not. It is aimed at the "gentry" class.

It can be predicted that before and after the formation of this institution, there will be violent storms.

Sun Chuanting was naturally aware of the danger, thought for a while, and said, "Let's see first, Mr. Sun Ge has already led troops into the customs, and the 'military reform' will inevitably advance rapidly. If someone makes a big noise, we can use this to Severely frightened!"

Bi Ziyan nodded, and then said: "You are watching from the State Administration of Taxation. They gave me a list. It is said that there will be an income of [-] silver this year, and there will be more in the next few years. How much do you think is true or false?"

Sun Chuanting knew that Bi Ziyan didn't like businessmen. Apart from his dislike of "buying low and selling high, getting something for nothing", he also believed that the Donglin Party was inextricably linked with these businessmen, and the corruption came from this, and he deeply hated it. .

Sun Chuanting pondered for a while, and said: "This is outside the Guomao Temple. Judging from the taxes paid by the Guomao Temple over the years, it is probably true."

Guomao Temple, also known as Huitong Commercial Bank, has been severely suppressed and has been "administrated", and its profitability has been greatly reduced.

Bi Ziyan nodded calmly, and said: "The national treasury is decreasing day by day. If there is a supplement, it would be a good thing to regulate the merchants, but we still have to watch, don't let them be too conniving."

Sun Chuanting understood, and said: "Now that there is a lot of noise outside, and praises to the emperor, does the cabinet want to show something?"

Bi Ziyan waved his hands resolutely, and said: "The emperor is not a person who likes to make a name for himself. Please summarize the progress of the 'New Deal' recently. I will go to the Qianqing Palace to talk with the emperor in the evening."

Chapter 1051 A Surprisingly Similar History

The Ming Dynasty expanded its borders and expanded its territory, and achieved what the Taizu and Taizong failed to do. Naturally, it is a great feat!

The Cabinet, Six Ministries, Dali Temple, Governor's Council, etc. also took this opportunity to publicize it, and the Chaobao and others tried their best to praise this merit overwhelmingly.

This time, the public opinion was completely one-sided. All the harsh words in the past disappeared at this moment, and the brilliant words spread all over the world.

Zhu Xu's powerful ability to manipulate public opinion has finally been revealed today, and there is no noise in the world except for the beautiful words.

The flowers outside the palace were full of joy, the firecrackers blared, and the joy was like the Lantern Festival, and the palace was also very happy.

Qianqing Palace, Dongnuan Pavilion.

Zhang Yun, Li Jieyu, Hai Lanzhu, etc. were all there, and Zhu Xu sat cross-legged on the rug, with three chubby little guys in front of him.

Zhu Xu opened his eyes wide, holding a piece of small pastry in his hand, raised his head teasingly, looked straight at his little Ci Ye, and said with a smile: "Ci Ye, come, call Father Emperor."

The little guy half-sat and half-squatted in front of Zhu Xu, looked at Zhu Xu, blinked, and didn't move.

Zhu Xu looked at the little guy, put the pastry to his mouth, and said, "Come, I'll eat it for you as soon as I scream."

The little guy looked at Zhu Xu, blinked, and didn't make any extra movements.

On the other side, little Shuxian ignored Zhu Xu and little Ciye, sitting next to Cixuan, teasing him curiously.

Cixuan is Hai Lanzhu's child, Zhu Xu's third son, the second prince of Ming Dynasty, who is only four months old now, lying there, dangling his little arms, looking at this young lady equally curiously.

Zhang Yun, Li Jieyu, and Hai Lanzhu stood beside them with different expressions, some were smiling, some were nervous, and some were restrained.

Zhu Xu was very helpless towards little Ciye, this little guy was better at nourishing Qi than him, so he let him tease him as much as he wanted, but he just kept silent.

Seeing that little Ciye refused to speak, Li Jieyu leaned forward and explained: "Your Majesty, just now Ciye said that he...may be hungry."

After saying this, Li Jieyu also felt a slip of the tongue, a little nervous, looked at Zhu Xu uneasily, and then glanced at Zhang Yun.

Zhu Xu sighed inwardly, the ministers outside were tormented to death by him, but there was nothing they could do with this little guy.

Zhang Yun smiled lightly and said, "Your Majesty, Ci Ye is not yet one year old, so don't worry."

Zhu Xu nodded helplessly, put the pastry in the little guy's hand, and said, "Come on, eat slowly."

The little guy held it in his hand, looked up at Zhu Xu again, blinked his eyes, opened his mouth suddenly, and said in a vague voice: "Father... emperor..."

Zhu Xu's eyes lit up, he was about to turn around and then quickly turned around, leaned closer to the little guy, and said with surprise on his face, "What was your name just now?"

The little guy looked at Zhu Xu, put the pastry in his hand into his mouth, and ate it in small bites, his big eyes were bright, and he looked at Zhu Xu brightly.

Zhu Xu looked at his mouth full of pastries, twitched the corners of his mouth, sat up, and said to Li Jieyu: "Okay, I heard it too, pour him a glass of water, stay in Qianqing Palace tonight, three little guys stay."

"Yes." Li Jieyu said happily.She is very trembling now, not daring to be careless in the slightest.

The emperors of the Ming Dynasty all had personalities. From the great ancestor Zhu Yuanzhang to the late emperor Zhu Youxiao, almost every one of them could be regarded as a love interest.Ci Ye is the eldest son of the emperor, if there is another "country-based dispute", it may attract the fear and suspicion of the empress or others, the consequences will be disastrous.

Zhang Yun could somewhat feel Li Jieyu's nervousness, and said to Zhu Xu, "Your Majesty, other people may not be able to take care of the three children. Why don't you let Sister Li stay and take care of them?"

Zhu Xu was a little slow to these things, and just nodded when he heard the words, and said: "You go to see the concubine at night, she has been a little confused lately."

Zhang Yun said "Yes" knowingly, then stopped talking and said: "Sister-in-law, please go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to have dinner at night."

Zhu Xu didn't pay attention, and while feeding the little guy water, he responded, "Zhen and Xie Yu took Ciye and Shuxian to go, that girl in Yongning has been a little outrageous recently, she needs to be taught a lesson."

Zhang Yun responded, said a few more words, then resigned with Li Jieyu, Hai Lanzhu and others, and left the Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Xu settled the three little ones, turned around and left the East Nuan Pavilion.

"Your Majesty, Shen Shangshu is already waiting." Cao Huachun followed Zhu Xu as soon as he came out.

Zhu Xu nodded slightly, and said: "Let him come and go with me to see the cabinet, how is the Grand Marshal's Mansion going?"

"Yes." Cao Huachun ordered someone to communicate.

When Zhu Xu walked out of Qianqing Gate, Shen Yongmao came up to meet him, and just about to salute, Zhu Xu waved his hand and said, "Talk while walking."

Today's emperor is a bit too "close to the people", Shen Yongmao is used to it, followed behind Zhu Xu, said: "Your Majesty, I have prepared, I plan to set off at night, first go to Guihua City, and then go to Kulun City."

Zhu Xu listened, and said: "Well. This happened very suddenly. You know, I didn't expect Mongolia to surrender collectively, and I couldn't find someone more suitable than you. 'Military reform' is inseparable. Open you, but you have worked hard in the Ministry of War for many years, and you have made a lot of contributions. I have also reserved a position for you in the cabinet. You should be able to see that this prime minister is a transition..."

Anyone with a discerning eye can now see that this "Prime Minister" is the springboard to enter the cabinet. As a veteran minister, Shen Yongmao said that he has no idea about the cabinet ministers. This is not to ask for an official. I will go here, and I will definitely perform my duties in accordance with the emperor's deployment, so as to lay the foundation for me to truly rule Mongolia as soon as possible!"

Shen Yongmao is Zhu Xu's old man, he has some understanding of his mind, and what he said is all about the key points.

Zhu Xu smiled and said: "Well, I can rest assured of your ability. There is nothing special to explain. Apart from military affairs, etiquette cannot be stopped. Mongolia has no written language, no ritual system, etc. You need to do all of these , Work hard to promote, don't use brute force, the Mongolian coalition forces, that is, symbolic, just control it, don't expect them to do anything in the Mongolian territory..."

Shen Yongmao listened and understood, and said: "Yes, I understand. I will be careful and never cause trouble in Mongolia... I want to ask one more question."

Zhu Xu had already seen the skeleton of the cabinet not far away, and said with a smile, "What are you asking?"

Shen Yongmao's expression was slightly condensed, and he said: "The emperor said before that there will be great chaos in Mongolia soon, what does this chaos mean?"

Zhu Xu laughed, and said without hesitation: "There are some secret reports from Jinyiwei. This Gushi Khan is ambitious and has big plans. Soon there will be major changes in Mongolia. In addition, the Raksha people in the west are moving eastward. The strength is strong, Moxi Mongolia can't stop it, and it won't take long, there will be a good show."

Shen Yongmao heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, he was worried that Zhu Xu had other plans, if so, he could still handle it.

After pondering for a while, Shen Yongmao said: "Then, the emperor, can we attack from afar and attack close at hand, destroy Mongolia with a pincer attack, and prevent future troubles forever?"
