Zhu Qiyu sat on the main seat and Zhao Hui knelt.

"Zhao Hui, how many years has it been since Great Aunt Baoqing passed away?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

"Your Majesty, the princess passed away in the eighth year of Xuande." Zhao Hui counted on his fingers.

Zhu Qiyu looked at him with squinted eyes: "I still have some conscience. Do you remember the day when my great-aunt went there?"

Zhao Hui really doesn’t remember.

The emperor's face darkened visibly.

"Wei Chen is guilty!" Zhao Hui kowtowed in fear.

"You are not guilty, you deserve to die!"

Zhu Qiyu said in a sinister tone: "Do you know where you got your wealth? It was given to you by my great-aunt! It was given to you by the royal family! Without my great-aunt, you would be nothing!"

"Weichen is a fart, Weichen is a fart!" Zhao Hui kowtows like a fool.

"Are you confused? Are you repeating a sentence over and over again?" Zhu Qiyu was very dissatisfied with him.

After raising him for eight years, he still didn't get to know this prince-in-law well.

After all, he belongs to the Queen Mother Sun.

Zhao Hui quickly shut up. He was old, but not confused.

"Go back and commit suicide, get out." Zhu Qiyu didn't bother to look at him.

What's the use of keeping an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf?

Zhao Hui was stunned.

But he has matured with age. He was once a favorite of Emperor Taizong, so he was naturally a member of his direct lineage. He had surrendered to the Queen Mother since she took charge of the harem.

In these years, the emperor was weak and his power was declining, so he naturally relied on the empress dowager to follow his lead.

Who would have thought that the emperor had been pretending to be stupid, and on the night of seizing the door, he finally showed his fangs, eliminated Chen Xun and Yu Qian, and monopolized power.

When he killed the consorts Jiao Jing and Li Ming before, he was as stable as a mountain.

Because his seniority and qualifications were too high, the emperor had nothing to do with him.

It's different now.

When kings enter the capital, there are many senior ones.

Moreover, the emperor held the clan in his hands, so the prince-in-law was useless, so he could kill him whenever he wanted.

"Your Majesty, please have mercy!"

Zhao Hui prostrated on the ground: "I am willing to serve your Majesty!"

"Hahaha!"

Zhu Qiyu laughed: "Serve me? Zhao Hui, are you worthy?"

"In these years of living a wealthy life, you have neglected your martial arts. Besides having fun with my concubine, what else do you do?"

"Besides, there are thousands of princes and clans in the court. What can I use you for?"

"Go back and kill yourself as soon as possible, so as not to cause trouble for your children."

"get out."

Lao Yanwu, I said, don’t let me dislike you. If I dislike you, you should go to hell.

Zhao Hui hesitated to speak.

He must have something against Queen Mother Sun, but he was hesitant whether to say it or not.

Zhu Qiyu was too lazy to pay attention. The Queen Mother was just his puppet. The kings stayed in the capital, so she was of no use and it was time to send her on her way.

"Your Majesty, please shield the left and right. I have something in my hand, please read it!" Zhao Hui also risked his life in order to survive.

"I'm not interested in watching. Get out of here." Zhu Qiyu was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Immediately, Zhao Hui was like a bereaved heir. People say that old people are always disliked. He no longer had the majestic appearance and splendid appearance of his youth, and now his abilities have also been eliminated. He is only disliked by people and dogs.

"Wei Chen, please treat your Majesty well." Zhao Hui still didn't want to die.

"If you say another word, I will give you another son. If you say a few words, just two, get out!" Zhu Qiyu's eyes were sharp.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Zhao Hui burst into tears, kowtowed, and walked out of the hall.

Zhu Qiyu stared at his back with sinister eyes: "I remember that Zhao Hui's ancestor was from Hetao. After his death, he should be buried in Hetao. His family will also go to Hetao and let Fan Guang arrange an errand."

Zhao Hui was from Nanzhili, and Zhu Qiyu said he was from Hetao, out of disgust for his family.

"This slave obeys the order!" Feng Xiao wanted to persuade the emperor to let Zhao Hui use the evidence of Empress Dowager Sun to kill him.

"The Empress Dowager has a head problem, let Dr. Wang give her a diagnosis and treatment."

Feng Xiao's pupils shrank!

The emperor wants to kill the Queen Mother!

No wonder he didn't want to know what Zhao Hui had in his hands. The Queen Mother was already dead.

"My slave obeys the order!" Feng Xiaozhan said tremblingly.

"Go ahead, I want to read the memorial."

Zhu Qiyu wanted to read all the memorials that he had not read in the past two days to avoid being fooled.

He read memorials very quickly.

It was getting dark in a blink of an eye, but he didn't feel tired, and there was a look of satisfaction on his face.

The ability of the Supervisor of Ceremonies in reviewing memorials has improved, and he cooperates well with the cabinet.

Liang Fang is indeed a talent.

Zhu Qiyu nodded slightly.

At this time, Feng Xiao came in in a panic: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother does not allow the imperial doctor to diagnose the pulse, and she is still making trouble to see the Emperor."

"Isn't she sick? If she is sick, she needs to see an imperial doctor. What should I do?"

Zhu Qiyu sneered: "Since she is making trouble, it means she has an unbearable headache. Let Dr. Wang give her a good diagnosis and treatment."

"Your Majesty, this... the Empress Dowager did not eat at night, and even said she would go on a hunger strike, so that the world can see how you fulfill your filial piety, Your Majesty..."

If it was too much, Feng Xiao didn't dare to say it.

Anyway, Empress Dowager Sun's scoldings were as unpleasant as they sounded.

"You can't handle such a small thing!"

Zhu Qiyu glanced at him, dropped the memorial, and stood up: "Let Doctor Wang follow."

"This slave is guilty!" Feng Xiao prostrated on the ground to plead guilty.

Zhu Qiyu was too lazy to pay attention to him, walked out of Qianqing Palace and went to Yongshou Palace.

The renovation of Renshou Palace has been completed, but Empress Dowager Sun refuses to move the palace.

He walked, thinking in his mind that he had to avoid suspicion and could not push everyone away and be alone with the Empress Dowager Sun. If the charge of violating human relations was spread, he would not be able to clear himself.

The crazy Queen Mother Sun can do anything.

Entered the Yongshou Palace.

Zhu Qiyu saluted: "Why is the Queen Mother causing trouble again?"

The Queen Mother Sun was so angry and her eyes were filled with hatred that the emperor actually wanted to stab her to death and send her away directly. This was so cruel!

Isn't he afraid of being stabbed in the back by everyone in the world?

Kill your aunt!

Does he want to have a filial piety?

Just because she said something she shouldn't have said at the banquet that day, just give her death?

"Is the Ai family making trouble, or is the emperor making trouble?" Empress Dowager Sun stared at Zhu Qiyu, fear flashing in her eyes.

She was worried that the emperor would order Dr. Wang to perform acupuncture by force.

"I'm just concerned about the Queen Mother's health..."

"The Ai family is in good health and there is nothing serious." Queen Mother Sun said quickly.

"There will always be someone who has a headache and fever, and he will always see the imperial doctor." Zhu Qiyu said this without saying a word.

Empress Dowager Sun felt weak. As long as the Ai family was sick, he would ask the imperial doctor to poison the Ai family?

"Emperor, I'm sorry..."

She was about to call herself a slave, but the emperor glared at her.

She burst into tears immediately: "Aijia is wrong!"

"I can't afford it!" Zhu Qiyu quickly saluted.

"Emperor, the Ai family knows that they were wrong. They did say something they shouldn't have said. They will never do it again in the future." Queen Mother Sun was scared.

If you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves missing you.

The entire harem was in the hands of the emperor, and she would get sick whenever he asked her to.

At that time, as soon as I became sick, I suddenly disappeared.

Queen Mother Sun was scared and didn't want to die.

She is gone, and the next person to die is Zhu Qizhen. Only by living can she save her son.

But at this moment, Feng Xiao Xiao ran in and reported: "Back to the Emperor, Prince Consort Zhao hanged himself when he got home. He left a suicide note, saying that he was living in vain to enjoy wealth. He felt ashamed and went underground to serve Princess Baoqing!"

Plop!

Queen Mother Sun fell from the soft platform.

Zhao Hui is dead?

Forced to death by the emperor!

No wonder the emperor wants to poison her. The emperor has great power and does not allow different voices to exist. She really said the wrong thing.

Why did you tell that story then?

At that time, I did whatever it took to keep my handle, but now I regret it.

The emperor was angry and she couldn't bear it.

"Zhao Hui's hometown is from Hetao. His family should move to Hetao. Zhao Hui is unworthy. There is no need to disturb the princess. Let's bury him in Hetao."

hiss!

Queen Mother Sun took another breath of air.

The emperor is so cruel.

Even the dead Princess Baoqing has to eat Gua Luo'er.

Husband and wife cannot be buried together. Should the princess's heroic soul be allowed to wander around without a home? How can she support it?

Moreover, Zhao Hui is not from Hetao, but he wants to go to Hetao to eat sand.

And Zhao Hui's children all suffered the same fate.

Queen Mother Sun thought of King Mobei and Changde.

Without her, neither of them would have a good life...

"The Ai family has realized its mistake, Your Majesty!" Queen Mother Sun wanted to kneel down, but due to etiquette, she did not dare to kneel down in public.

That would only make the emperor hasten her death.

I could only lower my voice and beg.

"The Empress Dowager is my legitimate mother. How could my legitimate mother be wrong?"

Zhu Qiyu looked at her for a long time, then said thoughtfully: "Even if there is a mistake, it is my fault. As my son, it is all my fault."

When Empress Dowager Sun heard this, she still wanted to kill me!

"I am unfilial to support my legitimate mother;"

"I moved the Kong family by force because it was unkind;"

"I have done nothing to the world, and I am unkind;"

"It is unjust for me to be mean and ungrateful to my brothers."

"I am such an unkind, unfilial, unkind and unjust emperor. Should I abdicate in favor of someone worthy of my throne?"

Zhu Qiyu's eyes were burning.

Queen Mother Sun quickly shook her head: "Your Majesty, please don't talk nonsense. Although the Ai family doesn't understand the court, they know their own children."

"Being unjust to your brothers is the fault of King Mobei. His Majesty still has a good appearance, which shows his true meaning."

"Your Majesty has helped the country and made great contributions to the world. How can he be unkind?"

"Although the Ai family does not understand the affairs of the previous dynasty, they also know that the reason for moving to the Kong family is for the good of the world and to occupy Liaodong. The capital of the country can be built under the enemy's front, why can't the Kong family be built on the front line? Could it be that Yan Sheng Sir, are you more noble than the Zhu family?"

"Your Majesty is extremely filial to his mother, and the Ai family feels the same way. It is a great blessing for the Ai family to have a son like this."

Empress Dowager Sun seized the opportunity and praised the emperor crazily.

"Mr. Qi, write this down. These are the Ai family's true words."

"If people in the world scold Your Majesty, let them scold Aijia first!"

"Why not move to the Kong family? The king is still under the enemy's attack, so the Kong family is noble? Anyone who says this should be executed!"

"Ai Jia is the empress of the first emperor and the empress dowager of two dynasties. Aren't Ai Jia's words more convincing than the sour scholars among the people?"

"The King of Mobei is a biological son of the Ai family, but he was defeated and captured, which is a great shame for the country!"

"You are no longer worthy of the throne!"

"In today's world, the only person who should inherit the great rule and not give in is my son Zhu Qiyu!"

Empress Dowager Sun wiped away her tears and said with emotion: "It is the decree of the Ai family to support Zhu Qiyu to inherit the throne. Although the Ai family is a daughter, the late emperor passed away, so what is wrong with the Ai family to support his own son on behalf of the late emperor? Who dares to question it? ?Who deserves to question!"

Everyone in Yongshou Palace knelt on the ground, shouting long live the mountain.

"Now that the kings are in the capital, the Ai family can still contribute to the emperor's son, but the kings dare not make any changes while the Ai family is here."

"If the kings question the emperor, the Ai family will issue an edict to remove his prince!"

Queen Mother Sun was explaining again that she was useful.

She can frighten the kings, so I beg the emperor to be lenient and let her go.

"The Queen Mother please move to Renshou Palace!" Zhu Qiyu bowed and saluted.

Those were the words he wanted.

Didn’t the people of the world scold me for forcibly moving the Confucius family?

I first named Kong Hongxu King Wenxuan, and then I asked the Queen Mother Sun to protect me.

See how the world's literati scold me?

If you scold me again, I will drag Yu Qian and Hu Hui into the water.

It depends on who you scold.

Also, Empress Dowager Sun is right. The kings must have been dissatisfied if they just stayed in the capital. During the transition period, Empress Dowager Sun still needs to be intimidated.

Then let her survive for a while.

Queen Mother Sun breathed a sigh of relief and survived.

In fact, if these words were said at the family dinner last night, the effect would be better.

But she had her own little idea at the time, and concluded that the emperor did not dare to kill her for this, so she deliberately told half-part words and also said words that questioned the emperor's identity to confuse the public.

"Yun!" Queen Mother Sun immediately cooperated.

"Thank you, the Queen Mother!" Zhu Qiyu saluted.

"Ping Shen." Queen Mother Sun looked presentable, looking like a loving mother and a filial son.

"Please take care of the affairs of the harem after the Empress Dowager moves to the palace. The Empress Dowager please rest, and I will not disturb you."

Zhu Qiyu bowed before exiting the hall.

Use her to block the knife first, and then kill it after it's used up.

"Feng Xiao, tell Xu Gan to keep an eye on Renshou Palace." Zhu Qiyu warned.

Queen Mother Sun must be completely grasped in the palm of her hand.

There must be no room for error again.

"My slave obeys the order!"

On the way back to Qianqing Palace, Zhu Qiyu was wondering who should be sent to Hunan.

There are really no candidates.

"Xuan Li Jin and Chen Shao come over." Zhu Qiyu wanted them to recommend him to see who among the ministers could be used.

After a simple dinner, we continued to deal with government affairs.

However, Huai En came to send a message saying that Nian Fu came to see him.

"Xuan comes in." Zhu Qiyu drank tea and read the memorial.

At this time, Nian Fu came into the palace to pay his respects.

"What's the matter?" Zhu Qiyu looked at the memorial without raising his head.

"Reporting to your Majesty, I also want to rectify the Hubei Guard Station." Nian Fu was straightforward. He knew that the emperor did not like to listen to nonsense.

"You can really give me problems."

Zhu Qiyu put down the memorial and said with a wry smile: "It's absolutely fine to ask you to abolish the guards and build the army. The problem is that there are no generals available in the court. I'm still scratching my hair for the three people in Hunan."

"How about you recommend some people to me and let me hear it." Zhu Qiyu glanced at him.

I dare not say that I am rich even when I am young.

Civil and military collusion, do you want to rebel?

"Your Majesty, all I know are civil servants, but I really don't know much about generals."

Nian Fu smiled bitterly and said: "Wei Chen just came back from the cabinet. After checking the information on the Huguang Rebellion in recent years, he found that Hubei is also in chaos. It cannot be suppressed without a large army."

"I will also give you three armies. You can reorganize the guard base or recruit new troops. The money and food center has given them."

"Let's choose."

"Let me think about it again."

"I have a headache."

Zhu Qiyu stood up and walked around with his hands behind his back: "Huguang is going to fight, and it all depends on you and Han Yong. You two have no head and six arms, how can you do it? No matter how tired and sick..."

"At least choose someone who can lead alone to help you share some of the pressure."

Seeing that the emperor cared about him wholeheartedly, Nian Fu was moved and knelt down and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your blessing."

"Get up and sit down."

Zhu Qiyu thought about it repeatedly and found that there was indeed no candidate.

"It would be great if the martial arts hall was opened two years in advance, so that there would be available talents." Zhu Qiyu sighed.

At this time, Li Jin and Chen Shao came in.

When you are rich, your eyes will shine.

"Don't come here. These two are my favorite generals and cannot be sent out." Zhu Qiyu interrupted Nian Fu's thoughts.

Li Jin and Chen Shao came to see each other.

"You two recommend some talents to me to lead the army in Huguang." Zhu Qiyu made the request concisely and clearly.

Li Jin immediately understood that the emperor wanted to select people from among the martyrs of Tumubao.

These people were somewhat resentful of King Mobei.

If he is promoted, Li Jin can become a faction among the honorable ministers. The emperor previously supported the Fang Ying faction and the Liang Yue faction, and even deliberately regarded Yang Xin as his top.

In short, he hated the British Duke and the Chengguo Duke.

"Wei Chen does have several candidates, please choose one, Your Majesty."

Li Jin said respectfully: "Jing Ying, the younger brother of Prince Consort Jing Yuan, is currently idle at home and is full of enthusiasm."

"Among the consorts, Jingyuan Yunwen and Yunwu were both worthy of the title, but it was a pity that he was buried in a civil fort."

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "His son Jing Bi works as a guard in the palace. He is more than respectful, but his ability is far inferior to his father. How about his younger brother Jing Yuan?"

"Reporting to your majesty, I think he is a talented person of thousands of households."

He is a middle-level cadre.

Li Jin continued: "Pingxiang Bo Chen Fu, although he is sent to Shandong by His Majesty, he can also be transferred to Huguang..."

"No, when I built the Fei Xiong Army, I didn't let Chen Fu be the commander-in-chief, because I plan to keep Chen Fu in Shandong and don't plan to transfer him back to the center for the time being."

Zhu Qiyu valued Chen Fu very much. He was very respectful and average in ability, but he was a very good executor.

Shandong has a new atmosphere in the new year and everything is renewed. People like him are needed to guard it, so he did not even consider using Chen Fu to build the Fei Xiong Army.

Because Chen Fu was to be the commander-in-chief of Shandong, he could not move.

"There is another person recommended by the ministers. In the 14th year of Zhengtong, Fan Sheng, the son of Fan Zhong, was the guard of Mobei King. Fan Sheng, like his father, has supernatural powers and can be a pioneer officer."

Zhu Qiyu nodded slightly: "Fan Zhong dared to beat Wang Zhen to death. He is a bold and reckless man and a meritorious minister."

"I remember that his son Fan Sheng entered the Beijing Camp, but I have never heard that Fan Sheng had any outstanding performance in the Beijing Camp."

"Your Majesty, horses with thousands of miles of horses are common but bole are rare. A humble minister is no more than a small soldier, but he is still the commander-in-chief of an army. It is just because he is appreciated by your majesty."

Li Jin is no small soldier.

Definitely a handsome guy.

He is cautious in using his troops and knows how to cherish military strength. Although he is not good at cunning strategies, he fights steadily and rarely makes mistakes. He is also good at balancing the forces of all parties, and is good at dancing among the generals. He is a handsome man.

"Wang Guang, son of Governor Wang Gui, Liang Zhiyuan, son of Governor Liang Cheng, Shi Xiu, son of Shi Yu, and Zheng Gong, son of Zheng Xuan, are all talented people from thousands of households. They can command thousands of people without any problem." Li Jin recommended everyone he knew well to him. emperor.

"Not bad." Zhu Qiyu nodded slightly.

For these people, Tiqi has already sent the information.

He had previously thought of recruiting him into Tiqi.

After listening to Li Jin's recommendation, I thought these people could be able to make thousands of households, and they were good middle-level cadres.

If trained well, Li Jin can become a mountaintop in the Tumubao line.

"Are there any talents who can serve as commander-in-chief?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

"Your Majesty, talents are honed little by little."

"Just like a humble minister, he only started as a soldier."

"Strong generals start in the army, as long as these talents are put into the army for testing."

"In a few years, a group of people will become generals, and handsome men will appear among the generals. Your Majesty, please be patient."

Li Jin advised the emperor not to be anxious.

Zhu Qiyu sighed: "Uncle Xiangcheng is right, I am indeed anxious."

Li Jin hesitated to speak, gritted his teeth and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, please use Shen Huai."

Bringing this up again?

"His brother Shen Yu conspired with Zhang Fu and was beheaded. How can I use him?" Zhu Qiyu frowned. He had already taken away Shen Huai's official position and made him live idle.

"Your Majesty, Shen Huai is loyal to the Ming Dynasty and your Majesty. He is quite talented. I dare to guarantee him that he will never make another mistake!"

Li Jin kowtowed.

Chen Shao wanted to remind Li Jin that it was not worthwhile to get involved with Uncle Xiangcheng's lineage for the sake of Shen Huai's future.

But it's obvious that his thoughts are not as deep as Li Jin's. Li Jin wants to be on top of the mountain, while Chen Shao just wants to be a general.

Zhu Qiyu stared at him.

The court wanted to use the descendants of the Tumubao martyrs, and Li Jinhui became the well-deserved leader, so he strongly recommended Shen Huai, roped in Shen Huai for his own use, and then forced Chen Shao to obey his orders. He was indeed a handsome man.

Fights within Xunchen are also everywhere.

As for Shen Huai's loyalty, he had no doubts. Even if he killed his son, let alone his younger brother, he would have to serve the court obediently.

The title affects the hearts of thousands of people in the house and is as heavy as Mount Tai.

However, this person is careless and not a good minister.

"That's all, let him be a bodyguard for Nian Fu. Nian Fu can use him as he sees fit."

Zhu Qiyu looked at Nian Fu: "Fan Sheng and Wang Guang will return to you. Jing Ying, Liang Zhiyuan, Shi Xiu and Zheng Gong will go to Hunan with Han Yong."

"It's up to you how to use it. The center won't interfere."

Zhu Qiyu gave Nianfu the greatest authority.

When you are rich, you bow down and give thanks.

Li Jincai looked squarely at the right servant of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the governor of Hubei.

From now on, his people will just look up to Han Yong and live in prosperity. Shouldn't they have a good relationship? But the civil and military divisions were distinct, and the emperor was extremely sensitive to this. How should he please Nian Fu?

"When you are young, Hubei is criss-crossed by rivers and is the thoroughfare of nine provinces. You need to build more shipyards to connect water transportation and serve as a transfer station for water transportation."

"It is not difficult for Hubei to become rich."

"But there are two difficulties that make me more worried."

"First, Hubei has a sparse population, and tens of thousands of acres of fertile farmland have been abandoned. It is not easy to forcefully relocate people from Henan to populate Hubei."

"I suggest that you move a group of people from Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Jiangxi, and then treat the local natives well and turn them into Han people."

"It just so happens that the White Army is stationed at Longhu Mountain. I will order the Jinyi Guards to take over Jiangxi and plow the country."

"When the time comes, some great literary and gentry families will naturally be separated and settled in Huguang."

"People from Jiangsu and Zhejiang love to do business. As long as Huguang is profitable, people from Jiangsu and Zhejiang will be attracted to move to Huguang."

"Henan has a prosperous population, but the corvee labor force is extremely heavy. I will move some of them to Hubei as appropriate. You must arrange them properly."

"After resettling the refugees and building the city, you have to know how to spend the money taken out by the palace. It is useless to put the money in the government's warehouse. It can only be circulated in the market."

"Build cities, houses, repair streets, etc., and give some money to the people who work. You can give it as appropriate. Go to the Ministry of Household Affairs and bring more suggestions. Remember not to give too much. People are greedy. If you give too much, it will be difficult to control. If you don’t give enough, you can’t give less. If you give less, you will lose enthusiasm.”

"It will not be difficult for Hubei to become prosperous by making good use of its geographical location as a thoroughfare of nine provinces."

"Secondly, I'm worried that you won't be able to properly resettle the military households after you abolish them."

"The military household has dedicated several generations to the Ming Dynasty. Now it is about to be abolished. You must be comprehensive and not cold-blooded."

"Those who want to continue serving in the army can be recruited into the three armies. Those who are older can also do chores such as cooking, raising chickens and geese, and try to appease them as much as possible. They cannot be laid off just because they are laid off."

"Those who don't want to be military households should be given more fertile land. Their ancestors worked hard for the Ming Dynasty and shed their blood for Lao Zhu's family. I can't let them feel cold."

"For military households to become farmers, they must become local small landowners."

"Anyway, Huguang is empty. Give them more land, and give them some positions in the countryside, post offices, and government offices. Those officials can be eliminated as much as possible, and the guilty ones will be killed if they deserve it, but the military households must be properly resettled."

"Especially those with military exploits, even if they are old, can stay in the army. A martial arts hall will be set up in the army, and these veterans will give lectures to the new recruits and give them a military salary."

"Nian Fu, you have to understand me. Some people cannot be dismissed casually, especially those who have contributed to the Ming Dynasty. I will never let them feel cold."

"So it is difficult to dismantle the guard station. You must be cautious and careful to avoid causing trouble."

Zhu Qiyu repeatedly warned.

Being rich is also in trouble. According to the emperor, these military households are the uncles.

People always shine when given a little sunshine, but if they are enshrined, they will become indifferent and greedy.

He originally wanted to cut the knot quickly and call it quits.

"Your Majesty, what should we do if we don't have enough land?" Nian Fu asked cautiously.

"How can there be enough land?"

"Even if the division is fair now, it will still be unfair in the next generation."

"Priority is given to military households, then immigrants and refugees, and finally criminals."

Zhu Qiyu considered it and said: "You can encourage farmers to engage in business. This is a good place on the thoroughfare of nine provinces. Business should be extremely developed. Use business to replace agriculture."

"Businessmen do not divide their fields. Businessmen who have fields at home should be killed and arrested! Separate the fields and resettle the farmers!"

"It won't be long before I will lift the restrictions on merchants and allow their descendants to participate in the imperial examination..."

"Your Majesty, you must not do that!" Nian Fu immediately interrupted and was about to launch into a long speech.

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "Don't worry, it just gives businessmen a little hope, and always restricts them. They have a weak sense of belonging to the Ming Dynasty, otherwise they would not join Wala and help Wala attack their homeland."

"Just give them some hope and let them work for the Ming Dynasty."

"In short, you have to remember that the priority is the army first, then the people, and then the gentry, wealthy families, and businessmen."

His policy will spoil military households.

But any policy has its own bias. If he wants to conquer the world in the future, he will naturally need a large number of troops to work for him.

Naturally, we should give the highest priority to military personnel, so as to create a culture of pride among the people and encourage people to join the army.

Rather than the cowardly trend of heroes not being soldiers.

"Wei Chen obeys your order." Nian Fu breathed a sigh of relief and kowtowed.

He added: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen wants to abolish Chao Guan. Wei Chen believes that Chao Guan affects commercial development and is harmful to commercial development."

This is the mysophobia of civil servants and their natural resentment towards eunuchs.

But the money collected by Chaoguan must go into internal funds.

It is the emperor's basic base.

Zhu Qiyu actually nodded: "It's up to you. If it's in your way, just abolish it. I don't care. I allow you to be tax-free in Huguang for three years. You won't be charged summer taxes or autumn taxes. Commercial taxes... are exempted for one year!"

The taxes in the Ming Dynasty are really numerous. Not to mention agricultural taxes, commercial taxes include door stalls, wine and vinegar classes, oil presses, white fermentation, paper classes, water mills, sundries, kiln management, deed book work and calligraphy, house leasing notes, There are too many trees, etc.

In the era of focusing on agriculture and suppressing commerce, the Ming Dynasty's commercial tax revenue supported the court's finances.

"I thank Your Majesty for your kindness!" Nian Fu kowtowed to express his gratitude.

"If you open the ticket number to Huguang, you won't have to exchange money for it in the future. It's convenient."

"I will choose a guard eunuch from the palace who suits your needs."

"Hubei has a lot of water, and there are also a lot of water bandits. You should train more sailors, suppress bandits, and train soldiers. Don't be afraid of losses. I will help you train sailors who can dominate the world. Your contribution is no less than the great governance of Hubei."

"When you are rich, bring more bodyguards with you. I will assign people from the horse-breeding army to you."

"Be sure to pay attention to safety. What you do will trigger local forces, and they will find ways to kill you."

"The sky is high in Hubei and the emperor is far away. I am not by your side. You must pay attention to your safety."

"I give you the Emperor's Sword. Kill everyone you think you can kill!"

"You, come back to me with your beard and tail intact!"

Zhu Qiyu stood up and patted Nian Fu on the shoulder.

Nian Fu crawled on the ground and choked with sobs: "I will definitely return to the center as soon as possible after the great rule of Hubei and make suggestions for His Majesty."

"Go ahead. If you have any problems, tell me anytime. I will help you solve it."

"Don't be vague about those who deserve to be killed, kill them with the Emperor's Sword!"

"Don't be afraid of being criticized by the central government. I will support you."

Zhu Qiyu valued Nianfu very much and was really reluctant to leave Nianfu.

"I will live up to the grace of the Holy God. I bid farewell to Your Majesty!" Nian Fu respectfully bowed three times and kowtowed nine times before leaving Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Qiyu looked at Li Jin and said, "Send a few more caring people over to protect Nian Fu's safety."

Zhu Qiyu originally wanted to transfer people from the Beijing camp, but changed his mind.

The horse-breeding army was his, sent to protect Nian Fu.

On the one hand, it is protection, and on the other hand, it is surveillance. If he is disobedient, he will be executed by decree.

"I obey the order!" Li Jin kowtowed.

Zhu Qiyu asked him to get up: "Li Jin, you said I sent Zhu Yong to Hunan, will he be obedient?"

Li Jin looked stern.

The emperor abolished the British duke who had seized the title, and then idled the line of dukes.

There is no need to elaborate on the reasons.

Now the emperor wants to use Zhu Yong. What does this mean?

"Let me tell you the truth, Xue Xuanmi told me that the natives in Guangdong and Guangxi are ready to make a move. He is worried that the natives will take advantage of the emptiness of Guangdong and Guangxi to rebel."

"So I plan to send people to guard Guangdong and Guangxi, including Zhu Yi and Zhu Yong."

"But I don't trust them."

"You two are my humerus. I can say anything to you two."

Zhu Qiyu paid special attention to Li Jin and Chen Shao.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."

Li Jin thought one more thing. If the emperor wanted to appoint him as the leader of the Tumubao line, he would have to cut off from the Cheng Guogong line.

So let Li Jin speak ill of Cheng Guogong's lineage.

"Wei Chen believes that there are many available talents among the honorary ministers, so it is not necessary to use Zhu Yong." Li Jin followed the emperor's thoughts and said.

"Then who do you think we can use?" Zhu Qiyu looked at him.

Li Jin wanted to volunteer, but then he thought, the emperor wanted to use Fang Ying, but there was no suitable step, so he asked him to name him.

"Back to Your Majesty, Wei Chen suggested to Uncle Nan He."

"Fang Ying?"

Zhu Qiyu looked unhappy: "That's all, you go back first, this matter ends here."

Li Jin couldn't figure it out. Wasn't the emperor just hinting to him to use Fang Ying to go to Guangxi? How could he be flattering him?

Zhu Qiyu stared at his back and sneered: "He is good at guessing Tianxin."

Yes, he wanted to use Fang Ying.

But you can't say it directly.

But should Zhu Yi and Zhu Yong be activated?

Staying in the capital is an eyesore, and being idle makes him seem unkind. It is better to kick them to the edge of the earth and let them serve for you without worrying about their rebellion.

"Please wait for me to lay down my pillow." Zhu Qiyu stretched his waist.

Move around and get ready for bed.

"Feng Xiao, tell Xu Gan that the palace is keeping a close eye on you."

Zhu Qiyu whispered: "I don't know how many people are looking forward to my death. The palace is closely watched by me. Anyone who makes any move will be immediately arrested and thrown into the inner prison for severe interrogation."

"Remember, your wealth and honor are all tied to me."

"If I die, you will have to be buried with me. Wang Zhen is the best example."

The emperors of the Ming Dynasty, who lived in the Qianqing Palace, rarely lived past the age of forty.

"My slave obeys the order!" Feng Xiao was so frightened that he fell to the ground.

He knows the truth very well.

The eunuchs relied on the emperor for their lives, and Wang Zhen only implemented King Mobei's decision, and ended up becoming King Mobei's scapegoat.

"Shu Liang will be back soon, right? When Shu Liang comes back, let Jin Zhong set off for Jiangxi."

"Now the factory guards' thoughts are outside Beijing."

"Tiqi is useless."

"I want to set up a west factory to help me keep an eye on the capital."

Zhu Qiyu is very insecure.

Especially when he buried a bunch of thunder around himself.

With the appointment of Empress Dowager Sun, the kings stayed in the capital, fought at the borders, and sorted out the provinces. He offended too many classes, so he was worried that if he closed his eyes today, he would never be able to open them again tomorrow.

Feng Xiao knew that someone in the Qianqing Palace was about to show up again.

Probably Zheng Youyi.

At the banquet last night, he whipped the kings, letting the emperor see his courage.

This West Factory is probably more powerful than Dongchang and Jinyiwei.

If the emperor's suspicion occurs again, he will give Xichang the greatest power.

"I haven't thought about it yet, let's talk about it tomorrow." Zhu Qiyu felt tired.

He is full of fear and confusion about the future.

The sense of security is increasingly disappearing.

In the dark night, he changed beds, but still couldn't close his eyes.

He stared blankly at the bed curtain.

Empress Dowager Sun amplified his suspicion and made him see everyone as a traitor and traitor, and she wanted to kill them all.

Emperor Xuanzong was only 37 years old when he suddenly fell ill and died.

The more he thought about it, the more something felt wrong.

The late emperor once traveled across Mobei with Emperor Taizong. He was extremely strong, and the harem favored the Queen Mother. There was no excessive indulgence, and there was no record of the late emperor taking elixirs. How could he suddenly die?

Emperor Xuanzong, who had extremely powerful imperial power, died in mysterious circumstances.

His imperial power was great enough, and he even did extraordinary things. Could it be that like the late emperor, he suddenly got sick and died inexplicably?

Before, he always felt a big hand behind his back, pushing Chen Xun.

When Chen Xun died, that hand disappeared.

Will the next time he appears be the day of his death?

"Who could be behind Chen Xun?" The more Zhu Qiyu thought about it, the more he felt insecure.

Tan Yunxian checked his pulse every day and said he was in good health, but Emperor Xuanzong was still in good health, so why didn't he just say he was gone?

There was also Emperor Renzong, who was emperor for ten months and then died.

There are even rumors among the people that Emperor Xuanzong killed his father and ascended the throne.

But behind the rumors, it also shows that Emperor Renzong was in good health at the time, but suddenly passed away. At that time, the late emperor was still in Nanjing and hurriedly returned to the capital to inherit the throne. The whole court was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat.

Ten years later, in the 10th year of Xuande, Emperor Xuanzong, who was in good health, suddenly fell ill and died.

Zhu Qizhen ascended the throne at the age of nine.

How old was Zhu Qizhen when he died in history? Are you over forty?

It seems not. Few emperors of the Ming Dynasty lived past forty. Except for Jiajing, only incompetent emperors lived past forty. None of the powerful emperors lived past forty, and there were two who were soluble in water.

Why?

Emperors Taizu and Taizong were both over sixty years old, and there were people in the clan who lived over eighty years old. There was nothing wrong with the genes of the old Zhu family, so why were the emperors of all dynasties so short-lived?

Starting from Emperor Renzong, the Ming emperors have all been short-lived, and most of the new emperors ascended the throne at a young age. Who has the vested interests behind this?

etc!

When Emperor Renzong passed away, what was Empress Dowager Zhang doing?

The dictatorial power of civilian officials began during the Hongxi period. Emperor Xuanzong did not do his job properly and shifted his authority downwards. He formed a system in the Zhengtong Dynasty and dominated the court.

I said that King Mobei died early, and the driving force behind it was the civil servant group, but Emperors Renzong and Xuanzong did not live long either.

When Emperor Taizong died of illness in Yumuchuan, was the power in Beijing in the hands of Emperor Renzong?

He was obviously the emperor chosen by the civil service group, so why did he die young?

It is recorded in the archive: I have been supervising the country for twenty years. I have been disturbed by slander and evil. My heart is worried and my destiny has been exhausted.

It would be too weird to die in ten months after surviving twenty years.

Moreover, after Emperor Renzong succeeded to the throne, he wanted to move the capital back to Nanjing.

Did he die because of the capital move?

Emperor Xuanzong gave up the plan to move the capital, so he successfully succeeded to the throne. However, in the tenth year of Xuande, Emperor Xuanzong became seriously ill.

However, Empress Dowager Zhang was left in charge of politics. Empress Dowager Zhang once wanted to establish Prince Xiang as emperor, but was rejected by Yang Shiqi. Only then did Empress Dowager Zhang begin her career of listening to politics behind the curtain.

Her husband died, her son died, but she became the biggest beneficiary!

Zhu Qiyu suddenly shuddered.

What role did the imperial grandmother in her memory play in the death of the second emperor?

Whose person is she?

Didn't she question the deaths of Renzong and Xuanzong?

"Feng Xiao, pull out the archives from the Hongxi period! I want to see them tomorrow!"

Outside the door, Feng Xiao's promise came.

If I close my eyes, will I never be able to open them again...

Zhu Qiyu didn't dare to close his eyes.

Did Emperor Renzong get sick the next day when he closed his eyes when he was tired after having fun?

Did Emperor Xuanzong still fight with crickets last night? He just said he was sick.

Back then, my illness was so weird that I suddenly became sick, and then Zhu Qizhen started to seize the door!

What is hidden in this dirty night?

Zhu Qiyu opened the curtain and looked at the moon outside the window. The moon was bright and clear. As far as his eyes could see, he could only see the immediate area, but could not see the depths of the night, let alone the human heart.

Who is whose person?

Is it really the same?

Can I believe my eyes? Can you trust the Qianqing Palace that was cleaned by one hand?

Will I suddenly die of illness in the Qianqing Palace, more violently than last time, and a dose of poison will send me on my way?

Where are the enemies hiding?

How should I find them and kill them all!

He watched the dark night in ecstasy. When a ray of sunlight broke through the darkness and the sky became misty and bright, he stayed up all night and his eyes were red.

Squeak!

Opening the door of Qianqing Palace, Feng Xiao walked out of the pavilion and rubbed his sleepy eyes: "Your Majesty, it's not time yet, please take a rest."

"No, have the archives from the Hongxi period been transferred?"

Feng Xiao entered his cabinet, took out the archive, held it in both hands, and handed it to the emperor.

"I won't practice today. Let me know when it's time to go to court."

Zhu Qiyu closed the gate of Qianqing Palace.

Feng Xiao's face was full of confusion. From the night of seizing the door, the emperor's work and rest were very regular. He practiced diligently every day and never fell behind.

What happened today?

The emperor's eyes are red. Could it be that he didn't sleep all night? why?

He asked Shang Food Bureau to prepare breakfast.

Under the lantern, Zhu Qiyu repeatedly watched the Hongxi period, and Emperor Renzong recovered.

"Emperor Renzong is a satisfactory emperor."

Because Emperor Renzong only did the emperor for ten months, he finished watching one hour.

"But why did he die?"

"Is it because you want to move to Nanjing?"

"Emperor Daming seemed to die!"

"Du Yingnian died early!"

"But no one has questioned."

"Isn't it surprising?"

Zhu Qiyu was puzzled.

The suspicion in his heart was released, and he began to doubt anyone around him, including Feng Xiao, and he was not assured.

He was afraid that at the critical moment of reform, he suddenly dissolved in water.

All the hard work of the Wenchen and military generals who had worked hard into the east, and followed his reform, were dismissed after the new emperor ascended the throne.

He wants to restore the Mengyuan territory, to build the Ming of the sea and land hegemony, and let the people live a good life ...

With his death, he would disappear with his death. Under the huge inertia of history, Daming returned to the original historical space -time.

Everything he does is futile, and even history will not be recorded.

As if this world has never changed, let alone change the slightest because of the wings of a butterfly.

Perhaps there are many traversers in the world, but they have not resisted the inertia of history. They are impacted by historical inertia to dissipate in the world, and history forcibly returns to its original trajectory.

He's not the first, nor the last.

At this point, he shuddered.
