Of course, Fu Yuanshan's worries are unreasonable. After all, gold and silver are controlled by merchants, and the imperial court is promoting silver notes prepared with gold and silver. This is equivalent to putting money in the hands of those merchants who can't afford to pay early. in hand. Especially in the hands of a businessman like Wuwei Bank who has never seen his real boss until now. This undoubtedly puts the safety of the imperial court in the hands of those vampire-like businessmen. This is definitely a great harm to the court. It may even endanger the stability of the country.
It was precisely because of this that he strongly opposed Wuwei Bank's banknotes and repeatedly asked the court to increase the amount of money minted. Especially since Huang Qiong took the throne, although the reign name was changed to Chongde, no new money has been minted. Fu Yuanshan was somewhat dissatisfied with the fact that he had been using the old man's year name to mint money. After questioning Huang Qiong several times, Huang Qiong was told to cast new money, and the money mold needed to be cast again, which was too expensive. As an emperor, he doesn't care about false reputations, and it doesn't matter whose reign name he uses to mint money. What's more, he and the Supreme Emperor are close relatives, father and son.
His own throne was inherited from the Supreme Emperor, so he didn't have to go through so much trouble. After several reports, Fu Yuanshan got the same answer, leaving Fu Yuanshan helpless. As for the so-called reasons given by Huang Qiong, Fu Yuanshan didn't believe a word of them. They refused to mint Chongde money, but on the banknotes of Wuwei Bank, the number of Chongde in a certain year was clearly printed. And not only is the year number printed on the banknote, but the year number and serial number are also embroidered with silver thread. Where are the close relatives of the father and son that we agreed on?
And how did Fu Yuanshan know that he kept controlling the mysterious bastard of Wuwei Bank. Every time he met the emperor to talk about Wuwei Bank, he would sit in front of him. After completing the counterinsurgency and almost completely accepting Wuwei Bank, Huang Qiong sent people to secretly control the entire Wuwei Bank. On the surface, it is placed under the Account Department, but in fact the Account Department can only manage a very small part of the bank's business. And the only one who can completely make the decision is Yixiang. That is supervision. The imperial court deposited a lot of real money in Wuwei Bank.
Even in the printing and issuance of banknotes, the Ministry of Accounts can only be partially responsible. One is to inspect the quality of banknotes, and the second is to stipulate the total amount of banknotes printed each year. As for other rights, it is up to Wuwei Bank itself. To be precise, Huang Qiong has been secretly manipulating it. The large profits earned every year flow into Huang Qiong's private pocket. In return, Huang Qiong almost gave up most of his inner treasury and financial resources. The original customs revenue from various gates in the capital was also handed over to the Ministry of Household Affairs. But this income is designated for the maintenance of Xijing.
In addition, starting from Huang Qiong's mausoleum, the construction of the imperial mausoleum was no longer allocated by the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Works, but by the internal treasury. But compared to Tianjia's expenses, the profits brought by Wuwei Bank are much higher. Therefore, Huang Qiong is now also the one with the richest internal treasury among the emperors of Daqi. Of course, Huang Qiong still kept a lot of money, guarding such a large amount of money, but he was still frugal and did not spend a penny recklessly. It can be said that the money spent is not stingy. But no one can take a penny out of his pocket for money that shouldn't be spent.
However, there is really no way to explain this kind of thing clearly. Otherwise, once word spreads, it will be attacked again to compete for the interests of the emperor and the people. Therefore, every time Huang Qiong complained to Fu Yuanshan about Wuwei Bank, she could only act like she didn't hear him. The issuance of banknotes was in the hands of the emperor, so why should Fu Yuanshan be worried? But there are a lot of words that cannot be said clearly. Faced with Fu Yuanshan's persistence, Huang Qiong could only compromise. It is promised that cloth can be used as purchase capital for the purchase of horses.
In the past few days, Huang Qiong was exhausted from persuading Fu Yuanshan. How could he think about tormenting Zhang Qiaoer and Cui? Not to mention that during this period, several old men in the palace had left behind concubines and had health problems one after another. In particular, Queen Mother Yi was frightened when she heard that her son had been imprisoned and demoted, and she was almost sent away on the spot. It was not easy to get treatment. He didn't dare to go to Huang Qiong to plead for mercy. So all day long, he ran to Situ Huanshuang's palace, cried and begged Situ Huanshuang to come forward and release his son.
When the other old concubines in the palace who had sons saw Huang Qiong, they really became ruthless and punished their brothers, even though they had not done anything to rebel. Everyone also knows that things have changed now, and Huang Qiong will not be so frightened after pampering them like when the old man was in power. Concubine Shen didn't care. Although Huang Qiong visited her less and less now, the two still maintained a secret relationship. Not to mention that Concubine Shen knew that her son would never do such an outrageous thing.
Concubine Shen admitted that she was still strict in educating her son. Although he has been planning hard for this son, he has never been strict in discipline. Although he said he was unscrupulous, ever since he had an affair with Huang Qiong, he had been indoctrinating his son to treat Huang Qiong, the ninth brother and de facto stepfather, as his biological father. So, Concubine Shen, no, Concubine Shen still has confidence in her son. But he was also worried that his son, who was of good nature, would have no one to control him outside the palace and would learn from his brothers outside the palace.
Still following the crowd, he brought his son in and gave him a lesson. Concubine Shen didn't worry, but the other concubines were all frightened. Two of them were so frightened that they almost passed by. This made Huang Qiong bring all his younger brothers into the palace and train them. Tell them that whoever makes their mother sad will be punished even more severely. And organized them, led by their two brothers, King Yong and King Shen, to visit the black room where King Yi was imprisoned in Zongzheng Temple. I looked at King Yi who was already so thin and out of shape just a few days after entering the hospital.
A group of princes and princes were frightened like frightened quails. After returning home, they promised their mothers one by one that they would never learn from King Yi and would definitely listen to the emperor's ninth brother. However, after such a torment, the two old concubines, who were already in poor health, immediately fell ill. One of the old ladies could no longer hold on. Huang Qiong had no intention of going through such a fuss. In the past few days, I have been staying with Situ Huanshuang, He Yao and Duan Jin. And it has been honest these days.
It wasn't until all the matters were dealt with that Huang Qiong had the intention to go to the back hall. Seeing two beautiful middle-aged beauties, Huang Qiong, who had been a vegetarian these days, could not restrain himself. This time, together with Zhao Xiu and Wang Xiren who were summoned, Huang Qiong was barely able to enjoy himself. After getting up, Huang Qiong remembered that Liu Rui had been placed with Cai in the past few days. After leaving this small hall, Huang Qiong came to Cai's place. Only when they arrived at Cai's place did Huang Qiong know that Liu Rui had gone back yesterday.
After hearing the news, Huang Qiong knew that the girl was worried that she would not give up. So, he hurriedly avoided it. After learning that Liu Rui had left, Huang Qiong didn't say anything. He just arranged for Gao Huaiyuan to send someone to protect him secretly. Zhang Qiaoer and Mrs. Cui also hurried back after knowing that Liu Rui had left. Faced with such a result, Huang Qiong was helpless. However, he didn't say much. Liu Rui went back to Zhang Qiaoer's place. He could go whenever he wanted.
After this incident, Huang Qiong became more and more strict in controlling the clans in the world. As for the kings in the capital, they were quite honest during this period of time, and all of them walked with their feet on their backs. Taking advantage of King Yi's experience, Huang Qiong chose concubines for his brothers, all of whom were daughters of low-level military attache families. It was Nangong Yun's daughter who was taken to the palace and trained by Duan Yan'er for one year before getting married. In doing so, Huang Qiong did not expect these future princesses to become masters, as long as they could control their own future husbands.
To be precise, when the truth is unclear, you can use force to persuade. Huang Qiong put more energy into preparations for the Northern Expedition. According to Huang Qiong's plan, it will take three to five years to prepare. In five years at most, the entire country will be concentrated on the Northern Expedition. Strive to seize the sacred land of Liaodong even if you cannot destroy Northern Liao. The reason why Huang Qiong took five years to prepare was because the Northern Expedition was not only a military matter, but also the existing conflicts within Da Qi that needed to be resolved as thoroughly as possible before the Northern Expedition.
At the same time, Huang Qiong also told Zhao Wuye, who had been transferred back to the Dianqian Division as the infantry commander from Guangnan West Road Jiedushi, to put down other things and make every effort to solve the problem of using infantry plus firearms to deal with light cavalry. tactics. He also ordered Yang Jiyuan, who is now the Commander of the Naval Command and the Envoy of the Naval Rectification of the World, and was stationed in Laizhou, to secretly investigate the tides at the mouth of the Liaohe River and its navigation ability. They also sent people to secretly investigate how big the boat could be if it sailed upstream from the mouth of the Liaohe River. Is it possible to reach Liaoyang directly by taking the water route?
However, Huang Qiong was busy rectifying military affairs and planning the Northern Expedition. But he didn't expect that he and Liu Rui would have sex again so quickly. Years later, Huang Qiong personally named the emperor's eldest son Prince Ping and his second son Prince De. At the same time, the Ming Dynasty decreed that the princes would no longer use the country as their title from now on, but would take the word "福" as their title. He also dispatched capable personnel to protect the two children and secretly traveled around the country to investigate the sufferings of the people. Compared to He Yao, who was reluctant to leave her son, Duan Jin, who had a daughter and was ready for everything, didn't care.
When her son said goodbye to her, she compared it with He Yao, who was worried and kept urging her. Duan Jin only told his son to be smarter when going out, to be more low-key, and not to cause trouble for his wife. That would be the end of it. Another sentence is to tell him not to expose his martial arts easily. His mother had many enemies in the world back then. Don't be recognized as your son and beat him up as an enemy, or kidnap him to settle the score with his mother. If this happens, don't blame her for not caring about it and causing trouble by herself.
When it comes to warnings, Huang Qiong, a father, doesn’t say as much. The second prince was speechless. He looked at his mother who was hugging his sister tenderly but was impatient towards him. He really didn't want to say anything. However, what he didn't know was that after he left his mother's palace. Duan Jin kept staring at his back, unable to recover for a long time. Speaking of being willing, how could she really be willing to let her son leave her. But Huang Qiong was right. These princes had grown up in the palace since childhood and knew nothing about the sufferings of the people.
After leaving the palace in the future, there is no guarantee that they will be deceived by some people with ulterior motives and become an unlearned bastard like their uncle. Letting them go out and see more of the real life of ordinary people will be more beneficial to their growth. Even if he doesn't take over his position in the future, at least he won't do anything to harm the common people. With Duan Jin's intelligence, he couldn't tell the true meaning behind Huang Qiong's words. What's more, Duan Jin also knew that Huang Qiong was just informing him, not asking for his opinion.
As his wife and mother of his child, I must support him in this matter. No matter how reluctant he was to give up, Duan Jin knew that he had no choice but to support him. We also know how much effort Huang Qiong has put into training this son to be his second Duan Jin since he was just babbling. Even if he doesn't want to, he doesn't want to have any trouble with Huang Qiong on this matter.
