Today's Ming Dynasty can't really be said to be very wealthy.
The people's lives are much better, but Lao Zhu really doesn't have much money.
After all, since Lao Zhu ascended the throne, he has relaxed taxes and allowed the people to resume production.
Moreover, countless almshouses and other things were built, which were really pioneers in creating education and nursing homes.
Coupled with the successive wars, it can be said that Lao Zhu is gritting his teeth and living his life.
By the way, it seems that it is because of these that the treasure banknotes have been developed. We should pay attention to this in the future.
Here, Zhu Xiongying continues,
"Well, as long as it does not exceed 50% of the usual penalty, some penalties can be reduced."
"But if it exceeds the limit, the penalty will be ten times the penalty."
"If we don't have much money, arrest people and confiscate their homes!" Zhu Xiongying continued.
Many people are subconsciously looking at His Highness the Grand Sun. This is not a good thing.
Lao Zhu killed people, but this one was heart-wrenching.
One is to let them die, and the money is gone; the other is to let you live, and the money is gone.
"Also, during disasters, supplies are inevitably insufficient. Therefore, everything in the local area that can help the people survive must be under the unified management of the imperial court!"
"Use these supplies to allow the people to survive temporarily. When the disaster relief funds from the court arrive, the court can compensate them."
"Of course, if there are free donations, the court can also commend them!" Zhu Xiongying said,
"But specific matters need to be confirmed by local people to prevent them from colluding in private to embezzle the court's disaster relief funds!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
"Well, that's probably what I mean. You go down, have a good discussion, submit the memorial, and review it!" Zhu Xiongying said,
"You can't let me think about everything and arrange it for you, right?"
"I am incompetent!" These civil servants said with shame again.
At this time, although there were many people from wealthy families among them, they all had their own shops.
However, the situation is still far inferior to that of the late Ming Dynasty, and he has completely become the spokesperson of those big businessmen.
For the sake of profit, one restricts the emperor, and the other restricts the emperor.
How can these civil servants have such courage now?
A look in Lao Zhu's eyes can scare people to death. He will kill whoever he says he will kill, and that's not just talk.
Of course, Lao Zhu didn't kill people randomly, they were all killing with purpose.
In this way, Zhu Xiongying showed himself for the first time in the Ming Dynasty.
In other places, Xi'an Prefecture and Taiyuan Prefecture, some things happened, but they were still relatively stable.
The eldest brother is dead and the prince is gone. While the King of Qin and the King of Jin are sad, they inevitably have some thoughts.
But fortunately, they still didn't take any action. After all, they knew very well what their old father was like, so they didn't have the courage yet.
But on the side of Yan King Zhu Di, there are many ideas.
Don't say anything, Zhu Di has no ambition or anything,
Not to mention, it was because of the persecution after Zhu Yunqi ascended the throne that Zhu Di had no choice but to fight back and launched the Jingnan Campaign.
How could Zhu Di have no ambition?
When Empress Ma passed away, Zhu Di came back for the funeral and had already met the monk Dao Yan and Yao Guangxiao.
At that time, Yao Guangxiao said something to Zhu Di when they first met and gave him a white hat.
At that time, Zhu Biao was not dead yet and was in full swing.
As for Zhu Di, he took Yao Guangxiao directly back to Beiping Mansion, and often went to see the old monk.
The old monk himself often went in and out of Prince Yan's Mansion to conspire.
Plotting what? Of course it was a rebellion.
As for Zhu Di, he said he never agreed.
Is that because he has no ambition? No, not at all.
Because Zhu Di knew that at this time, he had no hope at all.
If he rebelled, Zhu Di would be the first to die.
Not to mention that Lao Zhu is still alive, Zhu Biao is also still alive. Not to mention the entire Beiping Mansion, just his Prince Yan Mansion. He himself doesn't know how many people are Lao Zhu or Zhu Biao.
Where did he get the courage to rebel? Where does the ability to rebel come from?
As for the relationship with Zhu Biao, there is some, but maybe not much.
Let’s take a look at what Zhu Di did after he came to power.
Zhu Yunwen disappeared and his whereabouts became a mystery.
Zhu Yunxi demoted Zhu Di to the title of King Guangze after he ascended the throne and exiled him to the south.
Four months later, he was recalled to the capital, demoted to a commoner, and imprisoned in Fengyang Mansion. He died in Fengyang Prison in the 15th year of Yongle.
Zhu Yunxi, after Zhu Di proclaimed himself emperor, he was demoted to King Huai'en and exiled. Then, like the third child Zhu Yunxi, he was later recalled to confinement and died in Fengyang Mansion Prison.
Zhu Yunxi lived with his mother, Empress Dowager Lu, next to Zhu Biao's mausoleum. In the fourth year of Yongle's reign, his residence caught fire for no apparent reason and he was burned alive.
Zhu Yunwen's two sons, the eldest son Zhu Wenkui, are also 'missing';
The second son, Zhu Wengui, was still a two-year-old baby held in someone else's arms when Yingtian City was destroyed. He was immediately deposed as a commoner and was sent to Fengyang Guang'an Palace in the central capital to be imprisoned.
A child who had only been in this world for two years and had no enmity with anyone has been isolated from the world since then.
When he was released, he was indistinguishable from cattle and horses, and died soon after.
Haha, let’s not talk about the relationship between him and Zhu Biao. It may indeed be due to different status and different treatment.
But Zhu Di's ruthless behavior is evident.
It's not that he doesn't want to rebel, it's that he doesn't have the ability.
But now, the opportunity came. The prince's eldest brother was gone. Zhu Di found the old monk again and asked without any politeness,
"Old monk, now that eldest brother is gone, do I have a chance?"
"Amitabha, Your Highness King Yan, please be patient. You won't have a chance!"
"Your chance is not at this time, but in the future!" the old monk said thoughtfully.
"Not here? Why aren't you here?" Zhu Di was a little angry and shouted,
"Who else is there besides me? Who is suitable to inherit this throne?"
"Your Majesty has established the eldest son inheritance system, and he will not break it!" The old monk did not have any anger, but said calmly,
"Although the prince is no longer here, he still left behind a child!"
"Hahaha, kid, are you talking about that young boy Zhu Yunwen?"
"Is he worthy?" Zhu Di shouted.
"Whether you deserve it or not, it will be his, and it can only be his!" The old monk shook his head and said,
"The King of Qin is tyrannical and the King of Jin is irritable. They will not choose them!"
"But if His Highness King Yan is chosen, where will the two princes of Qin and Jin be placed?"
"So King Yan, now will not be your chance!"
"Just wait, it won't be long before our Majesty will make a decision and declare the world under control!"
"I don't accept it, I don't accept it!" Zhu Di shouted, wanting to smash the old monk's wooden fish, but he knew it was useless.
"King Yan, it's better to be calm and calm, the time has not come yet!" the old monk muttered again.
"Humph!" After saying that, Zhu Di turned around and left here with a gloomy expression.
The old monk didn’t show any expression...
