old!
These two words were like a sharp sword, piercing Jing Qing's heart!
Jing Qing's whole body was cold and he could hardly breathe. He looked at Zhu Yunwen in panic. His legs and feet went weak, and he knelt on the ground, trembling and unable to say a word.
Zhu Yunwen did not look at Jing Qing, but sat back on the dragon chair and asked Zhu Zhi and Zhu Geng: "Both uncles, although the minister came to ask for help, it is not a business move. But I heard that the Ministry of War wants to purchase a large amount of medical gauze, Alcohol, and you negotiated the price with the Ministry of War, this is a business move. Taizu's "Huang Ming Ancestral Instructions" clearly stated that royal family members are not allowed to do business. Do you two want to violate the ancestral rules? "
After Zhu Zhi and Zhu Geng heard this, they immediately panicked and they knelt down quickly.
Zhu Geng shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, we do not intend to violate the ancestral system, but we want to contribute to the Ming Dynasty and become a part of creating the prosperous Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Zhi echoed: "As King Min said, we are loyal and devoted to the country. Please be aware of this, Your Majesty."
Zhu Yunwen's face looked better and he asked: "Get up and explain things clearly!"
Zhu Zhi and Zhu Geng stood up.
Zhu Zhi coughed lightly, and then said: "When I was stationed in Liaodong, I found that our Ming Dynasty was fighting with the Tatars. Three soldiers died in the battle, and seven died due to injuries and no treatment. So I discussed with King Min, if We can find a way to reduce the suppuration and fever of the soldiers' wounds, and save the soldiers from danger, which can be regarded as a credit."
Zhu Geng nodded heavily, took over the conversation, and said: "Therefore, I and the King of Liao read ancient books day and night, visited famous doctors in the capital, worked hard, worked hard, and were loyal... Well, I finally found a way, so I studied with the people in the mansion day and night. After spending countless materials, money and food, we finally got it done."
Zhou De gritted his teeth and jumped out and said: "Since it is successful, the two kings should dedicate this method to the court, instead of violating Taizu's rules and practicing the way of merchants as a noble vassal king!"
Zhu Yunwen nodded slightly and said, "What Zhou Yushi said is not wrong. How do you explain it?"
Zhu Zhi sighed, walked to the basket on the side, opened the white cloth covering it, reached out and took out a cold steamed bun from the basket, and the court suddenly started talking.
Xie Jin and others looked at it, wondering what Zhu Zhi wanted to do.
Zhu Zhi held up the steamed bun and shouted to Zhu Yunwen: "Your Majesty, I am a vassal king. I should have enjoyed the glory and lived a stable life. But I was unwilling to do anything. I wanted to do something for the country and the army, so I invested all the money and food in the palace. This Only then did we create this medical gauze and alcohol. Now everyone in the house can only eat one cold steamed bun a day!"
"In order for everyone to have a hot meal and to open hundreds of mouths behind me, I have to act like a businessman. Only by selling these medical gauze and alcohol to the Ministry of War can the people of the palace survive and share their points. Money and food to support the family!”
Zhou Deman was very suspicious. You two just went to Qingyan Tower when you had nothing to do. Are you like eating cold steamed buns to live your life?
If that's the case, I'd also like to eat cold steamed buns.
"It cost so much?"
Zhu Yunwen asked in surprise.
Zhu Zhi took a bite of the cold steamed bun, chewed it, and swallowed it with difficulty. With tears in his eyes, he shouted unwillingly: "If this were not the case, who would be willing to become a merchant with the body of a feudal king? If the court is willing to allocate two The government has invested in the research, and I have no regrets. I will give you this medical gauze and alcohol method with both hands! If you want to take away the method without giving the money, you will force everyone in the Royal Palace and Prince Min's Palace to starve to death. I can't agree. !”
"I don't agree either!"
Zhu Geng shouted sharply.
Xie Jin rubbed his brows. These two kings really knew how to act. No wonder they had been inviting people from the art troupe into the mansion these days. All the money for love was given to the art troupe.
Liu Jun, the right minister of the Ministry of War, stood up and said to Zhu Yunwen: "Your Majesty, I believe that the two kings have spent their efforts and financial resources to develop medical gauze and alcohol, which will benefit our soldiers and civilians. There is nothing wrong with the Ministry of War's purchases, such as purchasing grain and horses. On the contrary. , more beneficial to my Ming Dynasty."
Zhou De quit and asked sharply: "What's the benefit? It's just a waste of national money!"
Liu Jun glanced at Zhou De coldly, ignored him, and held the wat board in his hand, saying: "Your Majesty, if purchased by the Ministry of War, one can realize the two kings' desire to serve the country and write a good story; two, it can repay the expenses of the palace to improve their living conditions; Third, if the court forces the two kings to offer their techniques, will the court still have to offer them if the two kings have something new in the future? In other words, who will have the guts to waste the financial resources of the two palaces on research and development of the military and the country in the future? Things!"
Ru Yu left the team and said: "I believe that what Liu Shilang said is very true. If the trend of offering Dharma is opened, it will chill the hearts of the two kings. Furthermore, even if the Dharma is obtained, it will still require manpower and financial resources to produce it, and it will also require It is a waste of national funds. Why not entrust this matter to the two kings and have the Ministry of War purchase it to achieve great justice?"
Zhu Yunwen nodded slightly and looked at Huang Zicheng, the Minister of Household Affairs.
Huang Zicheng came out of the squad and said loudly: "Since we have a good army, I should give my full support."
"Your Majesty, this is not in line with the ancestral system!"
Zhou De was unwilling to give in and shouted quickly.
Jing Qing also stood up and shouted: "Your Majesty, businessmen seek profit and have bottomless selfish desires. If a vassal king engages in business, he will bully the market and disrupt people's livelihood based on his status!"
Cabinet Minister Xie Jin left office solemnly.
Jing Qing, Zhou De and others suddenly felt uneasy, wondering what Xie Jin would say and what stance he would take.
Among the three people in the cabinet, Xie Jin was vaguely the first and second-in-command, and his words were more serious than those of Yu Xin and Zhang Zhen.
The court suddenly became quiet, everyone was waiting for Xie Jin to speak.
Xie Jin said solemnly: "I second the words of Jingqing, the censor of Zuodu, and Zhou De, the censor of Zuoqiandu! Taizu's ancestral system is in the front, and it is not good for the vassal king to engage in business. I think that the two kings cannot be allowed to engage in business."
Ru Yu, Liu Jun and others were shocked, why is this different from what they said before?
What on earth is Mr. Xie doing?
Looking at Yu Xin and Zhang Yan, well, one closed his eyes to rest, and the other looked up at the dragon pattern on the roof. It seemed that the court affairs had nothing to do with them.
Jing Qing and Zhou De were so excited that the cabinet actually supported them!
Zhu Yunwen looked at Xie Jin, with an inexplicable smile in his eyes, and asked: "Oh, according to your words, what should I do?"
Jie Jin looked at King Zhu Zhi of Liao and King Zhu Geng of Min, and said seriously: "Regardless of the original intentions of the two kings, just saying that the two kings are engaged in business for profit is a violation of the ancestral system and should be punished by decree! I propose to cut off the vassals of Liao and Min. Use the methods of rectifying Taizu’s family and country!”
"Cutting the feudal clan?!"
There was an explosion in the court, and the ministers were talking and pointing.
The removal of vassals was initially led by Huang Zicheng, Qi Tai and others. They were still secretly and cautiously discussing with the emperor in a small dark room who to kill first and who to kill later.
There were also people who petitioned for the abolition of the vassalage, but those who clamored for the abolition of the vassalage in the court were only a minority after all.
In this Fengtian Hall, the only one who openly shouted out in front of the vassal king that he wanted to cut down the vassal was Jie Jin!
The corner of Fang Xiaoru's mouth twitched slightly. This Jie Jin was so bold that he actually did this! This reminded Fang Xiaoru of his confrontation with Yang Shiqi:
"Hello businessman, what's the big picture with these four words?"
"Businessmen are good. In fact, one word is hidden. It should be 'Businessmen are good'. The emperor wants to use the ancestral system to cut down the feudal vassal."
