Capital, Wuying Palace.
Zhu Yunwen rubbed his sore shoulders, pointed to the approved memorial on the desk, and said to Shuangxi: "Send it to the General Affairs Department."
Shuangxi picked up the memorial, walked to the door, and handed it to the other chamberlains. Just as he was about to enter the palace, he saw a chamberlain coming hurriedly. He came to Shuangxi and said with a smile, "Jurong has a letter."
"That's great, the emperor just asked."
Shuangxi took the two letters, entered the palace, presented the letters, and said: "Your Majesty, there is a letter from Concubine Shu."
Zhu Yunwen quickly took it, threw the letter from the Security Bureau on the desk, opened Shu Fei's letter, and read it as he walked, with a smile on his lips. After reading what she wrote, he knew about Jurong.
Although Concubine Shu's letter was not detailed, she wrote clearly what she had done. She also reflected on her violation of etiquette and prepared to come back in a few days to apologize.
Zhu Yunwen doesn't think it's wrong for people to kneel down and worship their grandmother.
When he saw the playful longing in Concubine Shu's letter, Zhu Yunwen stared with a smile.
The letter from the Security Bureau is purely in the form of a diary, filled with information about who Concubine Shu met, how long she met, what they talked about, and what they ate...
During dinner, Ma Enhui read the letter and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu has a kind heart and is a tolerant and grateful person. When she returned to Jurong, she not only came to visit the Luo family, but also resolved the long-standing conflicts between the Luo family and the Guo family. End, let it be an old matter."
Zhu Yunwen took a piece of fish to Ma Enhui and sighed: "I can imagine the despair and hatred Guo felt back then. I can also understand if she hated the imperial court, but she didn't."
"Your Majesty, although Concubine Shu brought many gifts to the bride's family, she refused to bring any rewards. Is this appropriate? According to my concubine, the Guo family is worthy of being honored."
Ma Enhui was worried that without a reward, Luo Yaner's family would be disgraced.
Zhu Yunwen shook his head and said: "I have talked with Concubine Shu about this matter. She firmly disagrees with giving rewards to her family. I will waive both the imperial title and the additional title."
Seeing this, Ma Enhui said nothing more and asked instead: "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu can be married, but what about Concubine Ning and Concubine Xian?"
Zhu Yunwen put down his chopsticks, raised his eyes and looked at Ma Enhui, and said: "The queen is talking now and has begun to turn around. Concubine Ning's family is in Hangzhou, Concubine Xian's family is in Huizhou, and there is no way to go back for a while. If the queen wants to go home and see , after leaving the palace gate, we arrived in less than half an hour, do you still have to wait for my special gift?"
With a smile on her face, Ma Enhui asked, "Did the Emperor grant permission for me to marry my concubine?"
Zhu Yunwen nodded slightly, stood up and walked towards Ma Enhui, saying calmly: "If not, shall we go to Ma's Mansion together tomorrow?"
"Your Majesty, will you come to court tomorrow to discuss the land sale?"
Ma Enhui asked.
Zhu Yunwen rubbed his brows and said: "For a while, the results will not be known in the court. After tomorrow, let me accompany you home for a while, so you can relax."
"Then I would like to thank you, Your Majesty."
Ma Enhui had a smile on her face and was filled with joy.
At night, Zhu Yunwen could not sleep. Although the imperial court issued a national policy to curb land annexation, it did not restrict the legal sale of land.
The gentry here pays a high price, and the farmers there are willing to sell, but the agricultural tax department does not care?
If you care, there is no basis for it. What can you say about the fact that both parties nodded?
If you don't care, if farmers sell their land and have no income in the future, they will become tenant farmers. What is a tenant farmer?
It's Zhu Wusi!
Lao Zhu's family are sharecroppers, and their fate is enough to write a book of "Les Misérables" and a book of "To Live".
If it was just a matter of two books, Zhu Yunwen gritted his teeth and left it alone.
But if there are still people alive in this miserable world, then the living person is not Zhu Wusi, but Zhu Chongba.
What did Zhu Chongba do later...
Zhu Yunwen did not want the Ming Dynasty to be destroyed in a few decades or one or two hundred years.
People overthrow it, so the land issue must be resolved.
But at present, Zhu Yunwen could not find a suitable method, unless he ordered not to allow the transfer of the fields.
However, not only the gentry, but also the officials, the cabinet, and even the farmers themselves would not agree to such an order.
The transfer of fields and the private ownership of land have existed for a thousand or two thousand years and cannot be changed easily by anyone.
Sometimes the emperor cannot be the master of the world.
When Zhu Yunwen fell into a dream with sorrow, King Liang Daoming of Srivijaya suddenly woke up. The rumble of cannons in the distance shook the entire old port.
"King, what's wrong, Chen Zuyi, Chen Zuyi has brought people to kill him."
Liang Yu, the leader of the guards, shouted hastily.
Liang Daoming took off his long sword and walked out of the palace gate without having time to put on his armor. He looked at the sea of fire in the harbor in the distance and could not help but gritted his teeth and said: "Chen Zuyi is just a remnant of the defeated army. What's so scary? Get your troops together and follow me to face the enemy!" "
Seeing Liang Daoming like this, Liang Yu calmed down and quickly organized his army to follow Liang Daoming towards the harbor.
Chen Zuyi stood on a boat and commanded his men to charge and kill. When the boat docked, he also shouted and killed. He chopped down several Srivijaya sergeants one after another. He was unstoppable and led his men to charge inward.
Sergeant Srivijaya was unprepared at first, and the pirates infiltrated the harbor, causing the battle line to become unstable. When Chen Zuyi took the lead, the entire battle line collapsed completely and continued to retreat.
"Behead those who retreat!"
Liang Daoming arrived with his men and killed several retreating sergeants one after another, thus stopping the retreat.
"Kill me!"
Liang Daoming was also a ruthless man, and he had done robbery before. If he had no skills, how could he be promoted to the King of Srivijaya?
When Chen Zuyi saw Liang Daoming, he rushed over with a steel knife in his hand and shouted: "Liang Daoming, you betrayed me!"
Liang Daoming did not give in, and drew his sword to meet Chen Zuyi's heavy sword. After a series of sparks, he stared at Chen Zuyi and said: "I warned you not to rob businessmen again or kill people again, but you didn't listen every time! Then! Just don’t blame me for falling out!”
Chen Zuyi pushed Liang Daoming away suddenly, and just as the knife in his hand was about to fly away, the guards of Sanfoqi on the side blocked Chen Zuyi with their spears.
"Kill me!"
Liang Daoming shouted sharply when he saw the main force coming.
Chen Zuyi stepped back, stared at Liang Daoming, and shouted: "Betraitors must die! Tonight is your death day!"
Liang Daoming raised a long sword in his hand and shouted: "Really? My main force has arrived, but you only have more than 200 people? Chen Zuyi, I want to see how you escape from me! Leave no one behind!"
Boom, boom, boom!
Three cannons rang out behind Liang Daoming, and a team suddenly appeared. The leader was Chen Shiliang, the son of Chen Zuyi. Chen Shiliang led more than 300 people and shouted loudly: "Capture Sri Buddha Qi and capture Liang Daoming alive!" Kill!"
Liang Daoming was surprised at how Chen Shiliang lurked behind him, when he turned around and saw the palace in the distance, which had been set on fire and was so bright in the night!
"My son!"
Liang Daoming was panicked and quickly ordered: "Go back to the palace, go back to the palace."
A wrong order killed many soldiers.
Chen Zuyi took advantage of the situation to counterattack, and the men led by Chen Shiliang were even more vicious. They attacked from both sides. At the critical moment, Liang Daoming was worried about the palace and issued an order to return to the palace. The morale of the army was confused and the position was lost.
When Liang Daoming withdrew the remaining troops outside the palace, of the more than 3,000 people he had brought, only less than 2,000 were left, and Chen Zuyi and Chen Shiliang were chasing after him.
There was a killing sound in the palace, and Liang Daoming's heart was bleeding!
Before Liang Daoming could rush into the Fire Palace, he saw a group of people breaking out.
"Shi Jinqing!"
Liang Daoming saw the person coming clearly and couldn't help but relax a little.
Shi Jinqing has always been Liang Daoming's right-hand man
Arm is a trustworthy person. As expected, Shi Jinqing came out followed by dozens of guards to protect his family.
"Sir, Chen Zuyi is powerful, we need to retreat immediately!"
Shi Jinqing couldn't bear to interrupt Liang Daoming's family reunion, but if he didn't retreat now, he would have no chance.
"Don't retreat! Fight back!"
Liang Daoming looked at Shi Jinqing firmly and explained: "Chen Zuyi attacked at night and dispersed the attack. He just wanted to disturb the morale of the army and take advantage of the situation to cause chaos to increase his chance of victory. But his main force has been killed by the Ming Dynasty Navy. Now these people are just It's just a bluff and a way to vent, as long as we hold on, we will be able to repel them!"
Shi Jinqing looked around, then looked at the chasing pirates, took off the long bow from his back, nocked an arrow over the moon, and said: "In that case, I will take Chen Zuyi's head!"
call out!
Arrows shot through the air.
After Chen Zuyi killed one person, he just raised his head and felt a fatal danger. He tilted his head subconsciously and the arrow pierced his left ear and flew straight out.
"Ouch! Divine Archer?!"
Chen Zuyi was shocked, quickly picked up a shield from the ground, and directed the other pirates to charge.
But pirates are pirates after all. They lack organization and are good at fighting smooth sailing. When Liang Daoming and Shi Jinqing stabilized their position and continued to advance using the forest of spears as a formation, the brave pirates could no longer hold up.
Bodies everywhere told them that it was time to retreat.
When they turned back to look at Chen Zuyi, hoping that he would shout to retreat, they found that Chen Zuyi had already run fifty steps.
When it comes to escaping, Chen Zuyi can be said to be a master. He not only took away his son, but also took away more than a dozen ships. When Liang Daoming and Shi Jinqing arrived at the port, they could only look at the sea and sigh.
Before Liang Daoming could order the battlefield to be cleaned, he saw the fleet approaching in the distance. When the flag of Majapahit was raised above the fleet, the blood in Liang Daoming's body froze.
At dawn, Zhu Yunwen opened his eyes, looked at the sky, stood up and sat up, and said to Ma Enhui: "How long did it take for the queen to get up? I didn't wake up."
Ma Enhui asked the maid to step aside, took out a set of regular clothes, and asked with concern: "Did the emperor sleep very late last night? Do you need to ask the imperial doctor to take a look?"
Zhu Yunwen stood up and dressed and said, "It's okay, it's just that there are some things that I haven't figured out yet."
Ma Enhui smiled brightly and said: "There are always more problems in this world than solutions. The Emperor is a wise and wise monarch, so he will definitely find a solution."
"Flatter me. Don't regret it when I feel so happy."
Zhu Yunwen straightened his clothes and said with a smile.
The breakfast had just been served and Zhu Yunqi had only eaten a few bites when Shuangxi came over and whispered: "Your Majesty, Commander Gu Shi asked to see you and said that Datong is 800 miles away and urgent."
Zhu Yunwen looked at Ma Enhui. Most of Ma Enhui's original joyful mood dissipated. She took a bite of the bun in silence and lowered her head without speaking.
"Go and get the urgent report. I will read it here. If he has nothing urgent, he can come back to the palace later."
Zhu Yunwen couldn't bear Ma Enhui's loss, so he made arrangements.
Shuangxi agreed and walked out.
Ma Enhui looked at Zhu Yunwen and felt a little moved in her heart, but she advised: "The emperor should put state affairs first, and I can return to Ma Mansion another day."
Zhu Yunwen shook his head and said, "I also want to go out for a walk."
Urgent delivery.
Zhu Yunwen walked to the door with the urgent report and asked Shuangxi in a low voice: "Is there any inquiry from the abbot?"
Shuangxi replied: "I went back to the emperor and checked. The king's father is not seriously ill. However, Mrs. Xu is not in good health. I heard that she fainted once two days ago. The imperial doctor came to see her and prescribed medicine."
Zhu Yunwen nodded slightly, knowing that Ma Enhui's personality would not easily propose "provincial marriage".
