Zhu Youjian: Taizu has an order! kill!

"What is an emperor? The last thing an emperor needs is the kindness of a woman!"

"Bullshit! A heartless person is a tyrant. Do you want the prince to become a tyrant?"

"How can Legalist thought lead to tyrants? Are you insulting me, Legalist?"

"Oh, the law is ruthless. It is possible for a ruthless person to become anything he wants!"

Feng Ying was unhappy when she saw that Huang Jin was such a preacher.

Huang Jin did not give in at all, and kept refuting Feng Ying's views with angry eyes.

The quarrel between the two became louder and louder, and other Confucian officials around them also joined in criticizing Feng Ying!

"enough!"

"Shut up!"

Above, Feng Ying was seen rolling up her sleeves.

Zhu Youjian hurriedly coughed and stopped.

After everyone below turned their attention to him, Zhu Youjian continued.

"The prince is young and it will take a few more years to become enlightened."

"I will think about how to teach you specifically."

"Stop arguing now. If you have the energy, let's do the job at hand first."

Today he just wanted to force Confucian to stand up and fight.

Now that the goal has been achieved, Zhu Youjian didn't want to see the two sides fighting in the court.

Anyway, there are still a few years until the prince grows up.

As long as a Confucian is smart, he will surely understand what he means.

If you want to teach the prince, then work conscientiously in the past few years!

Huang Jin, who was suppressing his blush, looked a little depressed after hearing His Majesty's words.

Confucianism is really being controlled to death by His Majesty.

I don’t know from whom your Majesty learned this art of controlling people.

However, since His Majesty has not said anything to death now, there is still a chance.

There are still four or five years before the prince's enlightenment, enough time for Confucianism to launch a targeted counterattack!

No matter what, the position of master of the prince must be someone from Confucianism!

Otherwise, Confucianism can really break up.

After chatting about other things, Zhu Youjian waved his hand and announced that the meeting was over when he saw that nothing was wrong.

He has to rush back to learn basic arithmetic and has no time to talk nonsense with them here!

Today's court meeting ended unhappily.

After the Confucian people left the main hall, almost everyone had a bad look on their faces.

Looking at the triumphant Legalists and military strategists not far away, their fists clenched!

"Go and inform Nanzong and spread today's events."

"Tell those aristocratic families that if they don't cooperate with the Nanzong to rectify the Confucian sect, they can just wash themselves off and lie down in bed waiting to die."

"I'm old. It's unclear whether I can survive until the prince's enlightenment. Let them take care of themselves."

Huang Jin raised his head and glanced at the sky, then ordered the officials around him with a somewhat lonely tone.

Confucianism is now hanging on the cliff with half its foot.

If those bastard aristocratic families still want to make enemies of His Majesty, then maybe he, the Minister of Rites, will have to take action against these people first!

He is not Wen Tiren, and he does not have such a flexible moral bottom line.

For the future of Confucianism, he can risk everything!

Huang Jin's words made many Confucian officials look embarrassed.

But he didn't dare to refute, so he could only agree.

Aristocratic family...

It is indeed necessary for them to take a stand.

If we continue to confront His Majesty, everyone will be in trouble!

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

Just when Huang Jin was thinking about whether to take action against the aristocratic family.

Li Chen took advantage of nothing to do today and sneaked into the back room of the bank.

As soon as I entered, I saw Zhu Yujian lying on the table and fiddling with the abacus.

"cough!"

"Yu Jian, how are things going lately?"

Quietly approaching, Li Chen suddenly asked with a smile.

"what!"

Zhu Yujian, who was busy with his work, was startled when he heard someone shouting!

He quickly turned around and saw his great ancestor looking at him with a smile.

"I'll go, Taizu, you scared me!"

"I thought this house was haunted!"

Zhu Yujian complained subconsciously, but as soon as he finished speaking, he realized that there was something wrong with what he said.

He looked awkward and quickly shook his head!

"Uh, Taizu, that's not what I meant!"

Li Chen's mouth twitched slightly and hehehe twice.

The only thing Zhu Yujian has in common with Zhu Youjian is his mouth.

There was always something he could say that made him unhappy.

"Okay, okay, I'm too lazy to talk to you about this."

"We came here today just to ask how the briquettes are being prepared?"

"Winter is coming soon, so don't delay the people's use."

He ignored Zhu Yujian who looked embarrassed.

Li Chen floated to the side and sat down and asked simply.

The production of briquettes is not difficult. He has given it to Zhu Yujian for some time.

Now that winter is approaching, we can’t put it off any longer.

"Don't worry Taizu, I'm working hard to build a production factory."

"It is expected to be sold first in the two capitals and thirteen provinces by the end of October."

"The commercial bank has also reached an agreement with the merchants who hold the coal mountains and will purchase the coal mountains in their hands at market prices."

"As compensation, the Chamber of Commerce will provide them with some conveniences in the mutual market."

Faced with Taizu's inquiry.

Zhu Yujian didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore and hurriedly briefly stated the results of this period of hard work.

Unlike salt, coal had always had an embarrassing status in the Ming Dynasty.

It belongs to the kind that can't be up or down.

Faced with the acquisition by the imperial court, the businessmen who owned Meishan did not hesitate at all and chose to take action in exchange for various preferential treatment in the mutual market.

Although a lot of money was spent, Daming's coal mines are now basically in the hands of the Royal Commercial Bank.

"Ah That's good."

"The other thing is that when selling briquettes, they must be sold together with simple stoves."

“I’ll try my best to give you a discount on the price, even if I don’t make any money.”

"We need to tell people the various essentials and precautions for burning briquettes."

"This briquette is not completely non-toxic. If used improperly, it can kill people."

Li Chen nodded and reminded with a serious face.

There are complete instructions for using the briquettes in the brochure. As long as you follow the instructions and use them with the stove, there will be no problems.

This thing is a magic weapon if used well, but it can also kill people if used incorrectly.

"Don't worry Taizu, I have arranged all these."

"Currently, this briquette can only be sold at the affordable shops opened by our Royal Commercial Bank."

"All customers who purchase a stove will receive a wooden sign. Only with this wooden sign can they purchase the briquettes required for combustion."

"In addition, I will promote it at all construction sites across the country, allowing workers to experience the effect of briquettes for free, and popularize its usage."

"We will do our best to ensure safety!"

Seeing Taizu being so serious, Zhu Yujian nodded seriously.

He also didn't want the artifact that the court worked hard to promote to kill people because of improper use.

"Okay, if this thing is done, it will be your credit."

"Is there anything else going on today?"

Li Chen smiled when he heard this and said no more nonsense.

He felt quite at ease with this guy's work.

After thinking for a moment, he pointed to the outside of the house and asked with a grin.

"thing?"

"Not really. My account book has almost been cleared."

Zhu Yujian touched his head and shook his head in confusion.

He is relatively free today.

"Okay then, let's go and listen to music with us."

"We're treating you to a treat today!"

fine?

That's right!

Li Chen said directly with a hehe.

That bastard Zhu Youjian stayed in the harem whenever he had time since he had his son.

As a soul, he couldn't keep running to the harem, lest he see some not-so-good things.

So no, Li Chen, who had nothing to do, decided to come out and listen to music.

"Well, Your Majesty, does he know?"

Upon hearing that Taizu was going to that place again, Zhu Yujian couldn't help but sniffed.

This...

Last time I went with Taizu, I was scolded by His Majesty for a long time.

This is coming!

"What? Does Zhu Youjian still dare to interfere in our affairs?"

"Let's go, if he dares to curse, let him come to us!"

"Of course he won't be lonely in his big harem, but we have nothing left!"

"Hurry up!"

Seeing that Zhu Yujian was a little timid, Li Chen quit immediately!

Give him Zhu Youjian ten courages to dare to talk nonsense to me?

Oppose him!
