There were not many people who knew about Zhu Xiongying's congenital heart disease at that time, so more than ten well-known imperial doctors were executed by the furious Zhu Yuanzhang.
The dozen or so doctors who may not seem like many, but are able to sit in the imperial hospital as imperial physicians, are well-known figures in the whole world, and they are all top bosses in the doctor industry.
However, congenital heart disease can only be maintained and cannot be cured. This has been the consensus since ancient times.
The Lu family, including Concubine Ning, were very clear about the situation at that time. From another perspective, this was also a way to prove Zhu Xiongying's identity.
Even if you take a step back, even if you survive, you can only become a medicine jar.
Neither Lu nor Concubine Ning had ever met Zhu Xiongying. Concubine Lu's statement seemed reasonable to Concubine Ning. Everyone would be suspicious of a person who had been dead for ten years and then resurrected.
"Your Majesty told me that in the near future, I will ask Xiongying to visit the palace and let me take a look. He also told me with absolute certainty that when I see Xiongying, I will definitely believe that it is real. The hero..."
"It seems that they must be very similar in appearance to make His Majesty think so."
Concubine Ning said to Lu.
In fact, in Concubine Ning's heart, she still has doubts about the so-called Zhu Xiongying.
Although the incident at the Xiaoling Tomb of King Yu seems to have a certain possibility, it is possible for the hero to survive.
But back then, even the body was cold. Because Queen Ma was ill in bed, Concubine Ning personally changed her clothes.
It was completely complete, and the whole body was already stiff. If it weren't for the special medicine, the body would have started to rot.
Under such circumstances, how could there be a possibility of feigning death? It was really impossible to die.
However, when His Majesty said it, Concubine Ning did not refute or defend. He understood His Majesty's temper very well.
Regarding the eldest grandson he brought up, especially Queen Ma, His Majesty was almost in a state of bewilderment.
At this time, anyone who dares to question Xiongying's identity is really seeking death. Even Concubine Ning will probably be severely scolded.
Concubine Ning remained silent, she still wanted to wait until she saw Xiongying before saying anything.
"If the real hero comes back, there will be no other problems, but if someone is pretending to be someone and takes advantage of this opportunity, it would be a bit scary."
There was very obvious worry in Lu's tone.
Concubine Ning nodded, still agreeing with this statement.
She also knew that Mrs. Lu was Zhu Yunwen's biological mother and was currently the crown prince's concubine. It was only natural for people to have such thoughts.
Not long after Yun Wen was made the grandson, a big brother suddenly appeared, and anyone would have other ideas in their mind.
However, Concubine Ning just sighed slightly in the end. How could she, a woman, influence His Majesty's decision?
The only people who can influence His Majesty's decision are Queen Ma and Prince Zhu Biao.
Even the eldest grandson Zhu Xiongying.
Mrs. Lu had been observing Concubine Ning's expression, and when she saw the hesitation in her face, she knew that her goal had been achieved, and it would be bad if she said too much.
Without saying much, Lu said goodbye to Concubine Ning and left.
When she returned to Chunhe Hall, Mrs. Lu saw Yunwen discussing something with Huang Zicheng.
"mother."
"I have met my empress."
When Zhu Yunwen and Huang Zicheng saw Lu, they quickly stood up and saluted.
Mrs. Lu nodded slightly, glanced at Huang Zicheng, and told Zhu Yunwen: "Yunwen comes to the back hall with my mother. I will tell you something in detail."
It's not that Lu doesn't trust Huang Zicheng, but as a princess and now a widow, avoiding suspicion is very important to Lu.
The eunuchs and maids in the palace are all watching, and it is easy to cause misunderstandings by saying a few words.
Fortunately, no contact at all is the best. In this regard, Lu also cares about his reputation.
Huang Zicheng bowed and watched as Lu took Zhu Yunwen into the back hall.
There was a hint of admiration in his eyes.
Originally, he was already at the end of his rope and thought that for now, Emperor Yunwen's grandson could not compare with Zhu Xiongying who had never appeared before.
His Majesty's attitude determines everything, even Long Chu is on board, and one can guess how much he likes him.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Lu suddenly enlightened Emperor Sun Yunwen, and even proposed a strategy of advancing to attack and retreating to defend.
When Zhu Yunwen relayed some of Lu's words to Huang Zicheng, he was stunned.
It can still be like this, which shows how meticulous Lu's thoughts are.
In the back hall, after Mrs. Lu sat down, she asked her maid to close the doors and windows tightly, and then she retreated to the left and right.
"To explain your affairs to my mother, I told your Majesty after the morning court today." Ms. Lu asked.
Zhu Yunwen shook his head and said: "The emperor proposed many restructuring strategies in the morning meeting today, and asked the ministers to start discussing whether it is feasible."
"After the morning court, the emperor summoned all the ministers and went directly to the Huagai Hall to discuss matters."
Zhu Yunwen, who didn't talk to Grandpa Huang about the eldest brother issue yesterday, seems to have no chance today.
Lu frowned slightly after hearing this. She didn't care about the next day or two. She just wanted her son to confess the matter about Zhu Xiongying to His Majesty as soon as possible.
Some things are easier to understand in the open than in the dark now.
After Zhu Yunwen finished speaking, there was some hesitation and hesitation, but he still said: "Mother, today in the morning, the emperor's grandfather talked about changing the system to share the land with the land, which means that from now on, the Ming Dynasty will abolish the land tax."
"I don't understand why the emperor suddenly abolished the Ding tax. Now the annual revenue of the national treasury is not very good. Wouldn't it be more difficult?"
Mrs. Lu frowned and said: "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. This is your Majesty's decree. I can't say anything to you about this matter."
But as soon as he finished speaking, Lu was suddenly shocked and exclaimed: "It's not good."
"Mom, what's wrong?" Zhu Yunwen asked somewhat confused.
Lu thought for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "It seems that we have all underestimated your eldest brother. If I guess correctly, this strategy of restructuring was proposed by your eldest brother outside the palace."
"How can you see that after the emperor raised this matter to the emperor earlier, he was opposed by the ministers, but the emperor insisted on doing it, and no one dared to say more."
"How could it be that my eldest brother came up with such a method?"
Zhu Yunwen said with some disbelief.
"The entire system of the Ming Dynasty was formulated by His Majesty with countless efforts. If there were no major changes in these years, he would not easily make changes, let alone those related to taxation."
"Your Majesty will be so insistent only if others interfere."
Lu's heart already had an unpleasant feeling at this moment.
But now Zhu Yunwen ignored the consciousness and asked again: "Isn't this good? If it is really the strategy proposed by the elder brother, it is different from shooting oneself in the foot."
"Anyone with knowledge can see that it is harmful to the interests of Ming Dynasty, and it is so stupid to cancel the tax."
Hearing the excitement in Zhu Yunwen's voice, Lu couldn't help but scold him: "Ignorance!"
Mrs. Lu felt a little tired. Apart from being as benevolent and generous as his father, his son was really disappointing in other aspects.
There is nothing better than following what others say, without any ability to look at things from outside the outside world.
If it wasn't his biological son, Ms. Lu would have just ignored it and let him go.
The only reason why Lu is still insisting now is that as a mother and now without a husband, she doesn't want Yun Wen to be too far away from her.
If Yun Wen cannot become the emperor, he will definitely give up the vassal status if he becomes the vassal king. Then he may not be able to even look at his son all year round.
"Mom, please don't be angry. The child said something wrong." Zhu Yunwen said a little aggrieved.
Lu had a feeling of hating iron but not steel, and explained helplessly: "You must first think about what kind of person your grandpa Huang is. He was the influence that conquered the world and the founder of the Ming Dynasty."
"My mother has said before that the entire constitution of the Ming Dynasty was established under the leadership of your grandpa. You can think of it. Is it possible that your grandpa can't think of it?"
"There are so many things that all the ministers can think of, but your grandpa is still not clear about it. Even if he is not clear about it, the ministers have brought it up. So why do you insist on it?"
Hearing his mother's words, Zhu Yunwen suddenly realized, but he immediately asked doubtfully: "Yes, mother, why does the emperor still persist? Could it be that he was deceived by his eldest brother."
Mrs. Lu only felt the veins on her forehead popping up. She had no other thoughts at this moment. She just wanted to summon the eunuchs and beat Huang Zicheng severely in the front hall.
This is how a Hanlin bachelor teaches his son.
I feel that my son Yunwen has become a bad person in this Confucian culture. In terms of intelligence, he is quite consistent with his own age.
My son was so smart when he was a child. What did he learn from these literati?
Except for those who know a few words, there is nothing else.
After taking a deep breath, Lu finally calmed down.
Zhu Yunwen obviously noticed that his mother's complexion was not very good, but he didn't know what he said wrong.
After calming down for a while, Lu explained again: "Since your grandpa Huang can understand, you still insist on it, as long as there is only one possibility. It is this matter, and there is a corresponding follow-up strategy."
"Your Majesty is just pushing out the first half to test the reaction and ability of the ministers. If my mother's guess is correct, at this moment in the Huagai Palace, Your Majesty is telling the real ministers the follow-up strategies. .”
...
In the canopy palace.
The ministers of various ministries, as well as several dignitaries, had shocked faces and disbelief in their eyes.
"In this world, there really is such a crop, which can produce a thousand catties per mu. This is impossible, how is this possible." A certain palace scholar murmured.
"How dare you question the authenticity of His Majesty's words." As soon as the bachelor finished speaking, the bachelor next to him immediately scolded him.
Obviously, there is not complete peace among the bachelors, and there are quite a lot of conflicts.
The bachelor who had spoken earlier was so frightened that he knelt down and begged Zhu Yuanzhang for mercy: "Your Majesty, I am stupid. I was just too frightened just now, so I lost my composure."
Zhu Yuanzhang took a look and said casually: "It's okay. When we first heard about this, we couldn't believe it, but don't be impatient. The grain seeds for these crops will be delivered soon."
"Whether it is a donkey or a horse, you will know after taking it out for a walk, but you must prepare in advance. When the grain arrives, you must place it properly and prepare a place for planting immediately."
"By the beginning of next spring, there will be enough grain to distribute to the people. I have also explained the situation of the crops to you, and we will see how to improve this matter. If you want to flatter me, there is no need to say more."
Following Zhu Yuanzhang's instructions, the eyes of many ministers were brightened, and they also understood the reasons for the measures taken in the early dynasty to divide the land into acres and cancel the land tax.
With this arrangement, the Ding tax on these crops can really only be considered a very small part, and Ming Dynasty will have enough food reserves.
Although I was a little confused as to why His Majesty was able to find these crops, there was no news at all about such crops in the court.
However, these matters are not something they can interfere with. Obviously, there must be major secrets involved.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the ministers leaving with a smile in his eyes. He couldn't help but said to Liu He next to him: "Our eldest grandson is really capable. Sometimes we feel that it is perfectly fine for him to be the emperor now." .”
Liu He couldn't help but tremble when he heard this.
He hesitated and said: "Although His Highness is extremely smart, he is still young. His Majesty must control the overall affairs of the Ming Dynasty so that there will be no trouble."
After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he said: "Our eldest grandson is good at everything, but sometimes we feel that he is not interested in some of the discussions in the court. He is more stubborn than us in character."
"We have been with Dasun for so long, and we have found that only in wars will Dasun show strong interest, especially when it comes to the Japanese country. They would like to send a large army to overwhelm them immediately."
"The mountains of gold and silver that Dasun mentioned are probably true, but we see that Dasun's thoughts are not about the mountains of gold and silver. It seems that he has other agendas."
Zhu Yuanzhang is so sharp. He has fought for many years and governed the Ming Dynasty for twenty-five years. No one has seen him before.
Some of Zhu Ying's ideas could never escape Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, but Zhu Yuanzhang was always giving in to his eldest grandson.
In this world, there is no one else who can give way to Zhu Yuanzhang except Zhu Ying. Even Queen Ma at that time always gave good advice to Zhu Yuanzhang no matter what her opinions were, and she would never confront Zhu Yuanzhang.
If Prince Zhu Biao made Zhu Yuanzhang uncomfortable, he would beat him with a stick.
But this grandson is completely different.
Zhu Yuanzhang felt that this eldest grandson really ran away, and he had the idea of running away if he no longer wanted the throne.
Even if he guessed his identity, he was very stubborn and gave in to himself.
But what can Zhu Yuanzhang do? Who else can take the throne if he doesn't give it to his eldest grandson?
At least judging from the current performance, the most suitable one is undoubtedly Da Sun.
