As a time traveler, I know the development of human history and understand that if the Ming Dynasty adopted the hereditary system, it would be detrimental to the development of the entire society.

Although I and my descendants can enjoy happiness, there are still foreign countries in this world.

Under the hereditary system, it is easy to decay, and then all families, whether they are hereditary or not, will suffer.

The Ming Dynasty had more than 270 years of good fortune. The most important thing is that Zhu Yuanzhang formulated a real imperial examination system, which ensured that Ming officials could be born from the broadest class.

However, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, especially the establishment of Fushe during the Chongzhen period, through alliances between officials and officials, they monopolized the lowest level of scholars in the imperial examination, which dealt a fatal blow to the imperial examination, thus giving the Ming Dynasty, which was already seriously ill, Final blow.

Not to mention, this world is not only the Ming Dynasty, but also surrounding countries, and even countries as far away as the West.

If the descendants don't work hard, even the hereditary title will be lost; it is better to impart knowledge to them, which is the foundation for generations to settle down.

Therefore, Zhang Yifan wanted to change the hereditary system of the Ming Dynasty, including hereditary titles and hereditary professions. However, it was very difficult to change this in the feudal dynasty. At least before gaining the absolute right to speak, no one could reveal any of this aspect to anyone.

At least hereditary titles will definitely not work, but hereditary professions can still be worked hard first. At this time, Zhang Yifan was seen telling Zhu Yuanzhang: "Father, if you succeed, I don't want the hereditary title, I want another reward!" Upon hearing this, the officials in the Wuying Palace couldn't help but look at them like fools. He doesn't even want a hereditary title?

Is this something that many people only dream about? They soon remembered that this prince-in-law was actually an orphan, and he was only sixteen years old. He probably didn't know about hereditary titles, right?

At the same time, they were also curious. If he didn't want the hereditary title, what did he want? What is it that makes him feel more important than a hereditary title?

After Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment, he was also a little curious and asked: "Then what do you want?"

"Father, I want 50,000 yuan!" Zhang Yifan immediately responded after hearing this. As soon as he said these words, everyone in Wuying Hall, even in front of the imperial court, suddenly

With a "buzz" sound, many civil and military officials couldn't help but complain in a low voice.

"Are you stupid? You want 50,000 yuan?"

"How ignorant do you have to be to ask for money?"

"Although fifty thousand guan is indeed a lot, can it be compared with a hereditary title?"

"Idiot, this is the Prince Consort!"

"It turns out he is a money-hungry prince-in-law!"

"..." Even Prince Zhu Biao was anxious for his eldest sister, and couldn't help but remind him in a low voice: "You have to think about it, this opportunity is rare!" Zhu Yuanzhang was also surprised, staring at Zhang Yifan and asked: "You should be now You have enough food and clothing, but you don’t want a hereditary title? Have you thought clearly?"

"My son is short of money!" Zhang Yifan listened and replied seriously,

"My son wants money, 50,000 yuan!" After hearing this, all the civil and military officials shook their heads. This prince-in-law is really worth money and is hopeless!

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little unhappy after hearing this. How could this son-in-law be so ignorant that he couldn't distinguish the importance of 50,000 yuan and a hereditary title?

With this thought in his mind, he asked with a cold face: "What money do you lack?" Zhu Yuanzhang really couldn't remember, what money did his son-in-law lack?

The salary of the couple is quite large, is it enough? After hearing this, Zhang Yifan immediately replied: "His Royal Highness King Yan told the five hundred sergeants who participated in the competition that as long as they can win the competition, he will reward each of them with a hundred guan. I asked him where he got so much money? He said that he It should be enough to put together all the money and the princess's dowry..." Upon hearing this, everyone was surprised.

They didn't expect that King Yan would attach so much importance to this competition. He was risking all his wealth and risking his life!

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he couldn't help but said: "Nonsense!" However, he was still a little happy in his heart.

He admired this guy's way of doing things. On Zhang Yifan's side, he continued: "...His Royal Highness King Yan said that I just got married and couldn't spare much money, so he didn't need me to chip in. But I think I have a share in this competition. King Yan is My fourth brother takes care of me like this. No matter what, if I don’t contribute, will I still be his brother-in-law? Therefore, if I don’t want a hereditary title, I want 50,000 guan of money. I... I will go out on behalf of His Highness King Yan, son. I don’t want to see Prince Yan’s palace be so poor!” After he said this, the Wuying Hall suddenly became very quiet, and no one laughed at the Prince Consort for falling into Qian’s eyes.

Come to think of it, who doesn't know the preciousness of a hereditary title? As long as Zhang Yifan is a human being, he must know about it, right?

However, in the eyes of Zhang Yifan, a hereditary title is no better than a

The word "righteousness". In his eyes, family ties are far more precious than hereditary titles, so he chose money instead of hereditary titles!

Such a pair of consorts

How many people in the world can compare with the emphasis on "righteousness" and the emphasis on family ties? If he is a relative, he must be very lucky, right?

Even Zhu Yuanzhang lost all his coldness and looked pleased. This son-in-law is really good, really good!

At this time, he remembered what Zhang Yifan had done to Liujiacun. You can see from that moment that he has a grateful heart!

It can’t be considered an accident if we do this now! Then, Zhu Yuanzhang thought about himself. He could also be said to be an orphan, so he became the founding emperor. After becoming rich, he attached great importance to family ties.

This son-in-law is very suitable to his taste. He is really good! Thinking this in his heart, he was happy but did not show it. He just asked Zhang Yifan, "Okay, since you asked for it yourself, if the smallpox plague really comes true, I will reward you with 50,000 yuan!"

"Thank you, Father!" After hearing this, Zhang Yifan showed no intention of going back on his word. Instead, he said happily,

"This way I will be able to go to Prince Yan's Mansion as a guest!"

"..." Zhu Yuanzhang and others were speechless after hearing this. But they could all hear the affectionate meaning in Zhang Yifan's words.

Except for a few of the civil and military officials in Wuying Hall, they no longer had any intention of laughing at the Prince Consort.

Once a decision is made in the court, the corresponding matters will be implemented immediately. No one else understood, so under the auspices of Zhang Yifan, the Imperial Hospital and the Ministry of Punishment cooperated to verify whether the smallpox plague could be cured as Zhang Yifan said.

It can be said that as the news spread, all the eyes of everyone in the capital were focused on this matter.

Intellectually, they did not believe that the unsolvable smallpox plague could suddenly be cured. But, emotionally, they hoped it was true and that smallpox could really be cured.

The conflicting psychology makes them very entangled. I really want to go and see the scene, but I am afraid of being infected by smallpox.

In the end, Taoist temples and temples in the capital suddenly became crowded. Originally, under the leadership of Zhu Yuanzhang, people in the early Hongwu years of the Ming Dynasty believed in Buddhism and Taoism. Now, it became even more lively.

"Blessed by Bodhisattva, the Prince Consort's method is really effective!"

"Blessed by the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, the Prince Consort can do it!"

"..." Most people's prayers are similar, with Prince Consort and smallpox being the key words. One, two...so many people are the same.

This situation attracted the attention of a monk. This monk, unlike other monks, was also very proficient in Confucianism. He went to the yamen established by the court for an interview and became a monk receiving a salary from the court.

If it were the original history, during this time period, he had just been practicing in secret, deepening his cultivation of Buddhist and Confucian doctrines.

But now, he was alarmed. In fact, as the news spread wider and wider, more people who originally didn't care about gossip were alarmed.

After all, the smallpox plague was nothing like ordinary news. There were even some brave ones who were just outside the city, looking at the area under martial law from a distance.

"Come on, come on, the prisoners from the Criminal Department are coming!" As someone shouted, they saw five prison cars holding five death row prisoners on the official road out of the city, heading towards the martial law direction.

The sergeants on the first floor outside all handed over the five prisoners with some sympathy. Those people from the Criminal Department Yamen, after handing over the prisoners, hurriedly stayed away as if running for their lives.

And these prisoners on death row, with earth-colored faces, were being manipulated by the soldiers numbly. One of them even refused to leave and was dragged to the inner circle by the sergeants.

These sergeants carefully handed over to the soldiers in the inner circle, sent the prisoners in, and then escaped back to the outer circle as fast as they could.

For them, they are not afraid of fighting on the battlefield, but they are afraid of the plague. If you understand what the plague is, you may not be afraid.

However, we just don’t know what the plague is like, and the horror of the plague is often exaggerated through word of mouth. As a result, everyone is afraid, whether it is true or not.

In this atmosphere, another group of knights appeared at the city gate. When someone saw it, they immediately exclaimed: "Look, the Prince Consort is here!" This word made everyone excited. They all turned their heads to look, thinking in their hearts, such a big shot as the Prince Consort is coming. , it’s really time to come!

Sure enough, among this group of knights, Zhang Yifan sat comfortably on the horse and drove the horse forward easily. Behind him, there was also a eunuch, whose rank was quite high judging from his clothes, and three other imperial doctors from the imperial hospital.

As well as Zhu Wu and other guards. These people are very interesting. Except for Zhang Yifan who looks calm, the others are either trembling with fear or looking at death as if they are home.

Obviously, although Zhang Yifan comforted them, they definitely did not have Zhang Yifan's confidence.

Zhang Yifan saw the martial law place in the distance and was about to lead the horse's head by the reins when he suddenly heard the rapid sound of horse hooves behind him.
