Zhu Youjian: Taizu has an order! kill!

Regarding North Korea's arrangements, there is no rush now.

Li Chen had a lot of time to think about it slowly.

I believe you can definitely find a good way.

And when these tributary countries finished presenting their gifts, the princes from all over the Ming Dynasty followed closely.

As this may be the only opportunity to go out in a year, basically all the princes from all over the palace have arrived outside the palace gate.

They didn't prepare too many gifts, they just waited to go to the Ancestral Temple to burn incense after congratulations.

Then you can take advantage of these few days to have some fun in the capital.

It just so happens that this is also the busiest time in Kyoto.

If you are a little thick-skinned, staying there for a month won't be a problem.

"There are indeed a lot of pigs in the Ming Dynasty."

"We have to think about how to reduce the salary of this sect."

"Otherwise, the Ming Dynasty will be brought down sooner or later."

At this time, on the eaves.

Looking at the princes who came forward to congratulate Zhu Youjian one by one, Li Chen frowned and pinched his chin.

In fact, Li Chen had wanted to deal with the issue of the clan a long time ago.

After all, it was thanks to a certain Comrade Zhu who cared about future generations.

These royal family members have become a major burden to the Ming Dynasty.

According to the salary standards of the Ming Dynasty, the prince received lumi stone and the county prince received 2000 shi.

It may not sound like much, but the old Zhu family can’t bear it!

Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang alone had 26 sons, 23 of whom had descendants.

Renzong Zhu Gaochi gave birth to 10 sons, Yingzong Zhu Qizhen had 9 sons, Xianzong Zhu Jianshen had 14 sons, Shizong Zhu Houcong and Shenzong Zhu Yijun each had 8 sons.

According to historical records, by the Wanli period, the clan population recorded in the jade ultimatum reached Yu.

Such a huge parasitic group was so overwhelming that the court was almost breathless.

According to the Jiajing period, the total tax and grain revenue for the year was 2285 million shi, and the expenses of the royal palaces alone were as high as 853 million shi, accounting for 37%...

One-third of the fiscal budget is used to feed these pigs. Even if the Ming Dynasty is destroyed, there will be ghosts!

If it weren't for the turmoil in the court, and Zhu Youjian had not yet fully grasped military power and controlled the government, Li Chen would be the first to take action on these royal family members.

"Huh... Now let's see how effective Zhu Yujian's move is."

"Instead of letting these guys continue to suck blood in the country, it's better to let them out and play some role."

"Damn it, Zhu Laosi, it's good to do the best you can!"

"Having it half done leaves such a big hidden danger...With the reduction of military power, these people will have no choice but to create villains."

"Like a fucking piglet..."

"15 people...can become an army!"

Sitting on the beam, Li Chen shook his head while complaining.

The problems of Ming Dynasty are really one after another.

Fortunately, these pigs had no objection, they just ate too much and had too much raw food.

It is far less difficult to deal with than those of civil servants.

You can always handle it step by step.

Zhu Yujian, Zhu Yujian...

Don't let me down!

This publicity work depends on you!

--------------------------------

"Child, you've worked hard."

"Let dad see... how fat are you...?"

"Well, it seems that His Majesty is very kind to you."

Wait until morning is over.

In a small courtyard, Tang Wang Zhu Qiji ran in hurriedly.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw his eldest son already waiting in the courtyard.

I hurried forward and took a look, but there were no missing arms or legs.

Zhu Qiqi couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, and most of the worries in his heart were gone.

He is not a weirdo like his father, but he likes his eldest son Zhu Yujian very much.

Sensible, obedient, smart.

With the chaos in the court now, he was really worried about something happening to Zhu Yujian.

"Dad, don't look at it. I'm very good."

"Dad, you still don't look very good."

"I'll ask the imperial physician in the palace to take a look at you tomorrow."

Zhu Yujian couldn't help but smile when he saw his father's nervous look.

Speaking of which, he also felt that this period of time had been a bit dreamy.

He was still hungry in the pigsty, but he was sent to the palace in the blink of an eye.

He even met Taizu and was appointed as a backup for the throne.

Zhu Yujian couldn't help but wake up many nights, thinking he was dreaming.

"Dad, I'm fine. I just miss you."

"By the way, what do you want your Majesty to do with you?"

"Under normal circumstances, foreign vassal kings are not allowed to enter the capital at will."

"It's good for you, not only did you come in, you also stayed in the palace!"

"Honestly, is there something wrong?"

Zhu Qiqi sighed, waved his hands and shook his head and asked.

His body needs to be recuperated slowly.

Compared with this, he was still more worried about Zhu Yujian's situation.

The son is smart and the father is certainly not stupid either.

Now that he knows very well what the imperial court is like, His Majesty will have to personally copy the knife and have a friendly match with the civil servants.

It is definitely not a good thing to put Zhu Yujian in the palace at this time!

He had already thought about it. If he ran into trouble, he would have to take Zhu Yujian out of the palace even if he was not willing to take the position of Prince of Tang.

"Dad...don't get excited yet."

"What my son is going to say next may be a little exciting."

"Sit down first and I'll talk to you slowly."

Seeing his father's serious face, how could Zhu Yujian not know what he was thinking.

I couldn't help but feel warm in my heart.

He took a deep breath and then helped Zhu Qiqi to sit down.

Then after a while of sorting things out, I briefly talked to him about the affairs in the palace.

Including His Majesty asking him to be a spare tire, and also the matter of externally proclaiming him king.

Of course, the news about Taizu must have been concealed.

After listening to what his eldest son said, Zhu Qiqi's face turned livid.

Spare tire?

Bullshit spare tire!

Isn't this just putting people on the fire?

Well, Zhu Youjian, we are all relatives and that’s how you do things!

"Go, enter the palace!"

"I'm risking my life to lose your father, so I have to quit this job!"

"He is still crowned king...does he think he is Taizu? How dare he draw such a picture?"

"How many dynasties have passed, which emperor would make a king for no reason?"

"That's not to make yourself unhappy!"

"Let's go!"

"I would like to ask this junior, what's the point of forcing people to die!"

"At worst, I don't want the position of Prince Tang!"

Zhu Qiqi was really anxious!

He's not a fool who hasn't read a book, so this thing doesn't sound right.

Which emperor would be crazy and would make a king randomly?

After so many dynasties, any emperor who is a scholar should be aware of the dangers of powerful princes.

And not to mention more, the leader of his lineage is Grandpa Cheng!

Isn't that the one who took the route of a prince upgrading to become an emperor?

Confess the king...

Isn't he afraid that after he is sealed off, one day the outside world will also give his descendants a tribulation?

No matter how you look at it, this is a big pie. Not only will you not be able to eat it, but you will also be killed!

Is it something princes like them can learn about the art of the emperor's mind?

No more brains!

With that said, Zhu Qiyao took Zhu Yujian and walked towards the door.

"Dad! Don't worry!"

"Really, listen to my explanation..."

"Explain what? If it's later, the whole family will have to get in!"

"Hurry into the palace with me!"

Zhu Yujian struggled to say something, but his father ignored him.

He was also afraid that his father would be knocked down if he moved too much.

In the end, he could only rub his forehead and let his father pull him into the palace.

never mind...

Stop struggling.

Let His Majesty explain it to him personally.
