Chapter 185 Doing business

Zhu Xiongying left Yingtian Mansion in early spring, and on the way back, spring was everywhere. Along the way, he also saw many people starting to prepare. They haven't planted rice yet, but there are already many people there.

I was plowing the fields with oxen or manpower, and I also saw some people picking wild vegetables in the fields.

Zhu Xiongying didn't say much about this. The lean period is the most difficult for the people. It's normal to eat some wild vegetables.

In fact, there is no need to worry too much about food. Even if there is no food to grow, the Ming Dynasty court can still give credit to the people.

It should be said that Lao Zhu had a deep understanding of the sufferings of the people. He also cared for the common people to the best of his ability. He was very strict with the landlords and gentry, but he was very tolerant to the common people, which was completely different from the Yuan Dynasty.

Lao Zhu once said that the Yuan Dynasty failed in its lenience, but this was manifested in loose official administration, simple administration and light punishments, cultural diversity, no suppression of mergers, and emphasis on business and light taxation.

It's just this kind of "lenience". Once the management level is not enough, if the management is not enough, not comprehensive enough, and not strict enough, then the world will be in chaos. Those rulers have no regard for the life and death of the people at the bottom, and the result will be unclear governance and poor administrative efficiency.

Low.

There is certainly no problem with tolerance, but the court cannot be a hands-off shopkeeper and cannot really leave everything to the landlord class.

Overall, it's pretty good. Zhu Xiongying also knows that some people have a hard time making a living. Such things happen in any era.

However, the Ming Dynasty is now recuperating and can be considered relatively peaceful, so the people can live and work in peace and contentment. Now the Ming Dynasty is full of vitality, and it has become increasingly obvious that the people are prosperous and the country is strong.

Seeing the majestic Yingtianfu city wall, Zhu Xiongying couldn't help but feel happy. It was indeed very interesting to go out for more than a month, but now that he is back home, he will also feel happy and look forward to it.

As soon as he arrived at the city gate, Zhu Xiongying couldn't help being stunned. He originally planned to return to the city in a low-key manner. But it was obvious that his wishful thinking did not work. It was obvious that Zhu Xiongying could not make the decision on many things. Lao Zhu

I have Lao Zhu’s idea.

Zhu Yunxi was dressed in a county dynasty uniform and led a group of brothers. Even if many of them are cousins, they are still brothers. Each of these teenagers or little carrots lined up in a decent manner, and each of them was more serious.

Zhu Yunxi stood up and said loudly, "My younger brother Zhu Yunxi, together with all the brothers in the clan, congratulates His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun on his return to the capital after inspecting Jingchu."

Needless to say, this must have been explained by Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao. Everyone knows the reason why Zhu Xiongying ran out. In fact, he ran to save Zhu Zi, the king of the pool. If he didn't return, it might be that Zhu Xiongying wanted to hide and relax.<

/p>

But this cannot be said in formal occasions. The emperor's grandson saved his uncle from a thousand miles away and is naturally worthy of praise. But the emperor's grandson has not returned yet because he was ordered to inspect the place. This is because the emperor's grandson cares about the national economy and people's livelihood.

Zhu Xiongying was also a master of pretentiousness and adaptability, and said calmly, "I am safe, I am safe."

Zhu Yunxi and others then stood up and saluted, and everyone became happy. Especially a half-year-old kid like Zhu Yunxi, who wanted to let the emperor see him. He was very obedient and could do it.

It’s a big deal.

Zhu Xiongying is also preparing to stage a drama of brothers and sisters, and he is quite happy to see his brothers.

"I've made some progress." Zhu Xiongying was also pleased. He touched Zhu Yunxi's head and said, "Now I don't have stage fright anymore. You should have such courage. You are of the blood of my grandfather, how can you be timid?"

Zhu Yunxi immediately said, "Brother, I know everything. I am not afraid of trouble now. I have never been afraid of trouble!"

This is true, it’s so weird that the devil incarnation who has been accustomed to be lawless can be afraid of things. This kid is also a typical example of being pampered and arrogant. Among the third generation of emperors, this is the real troublesome character.

Zhu Xiongying is sensible, smart and wise, so sometimes people are in awe. But Zhu Yunxi is just a naughty kid.

Looking at Zhu Yunwen who was doing his job, Zhu Xiongying also praised him a few words, "Young man Ruyu has a name for poetry. My family Yunwen likes to read and loves to read. This is a good thing. But don't give up on reading. You must read thoroughly and thoroughly. It's ordinary."

You should also walk more and read more, and understand that it is better to have no books at all than to have them all."

Zhu Yunwen naturally nodded obediently and said hurriedly, "My brother, I would like to follow the teachings of His Royal Highness the Grand Sun."

Squeezing Zhu Yunzhen's fat face, Zhu Xiongying became sad, "You have eaten a lot, and you are almost as good as Third Brother Qi. I will take you to ride horses and shoot arrows later. It will not be good if you continue like this."

”

Here I think Zhu Yunxuan is a chubby guy, but the next moment Zhu Xiongying really sees a chubby guy.

Zhu Yunxi was fat when he was a child, and he is a bit rich now, but the Zhu Gaochi in front of him is really heavyweight. This little fat man seems to be completely unaware of this, he doesn't like to move, and he can't control his mouth.

"You!" Zhu Xiongying sighed and said, "I remember that you were also good at archery, but now you have put it to waste and you are just thinking about scriptures? This is not possible. You are the Crown Prince of Yan, how can you do this?"<

/p>

The little fat man showed a silly smile. Although he said "I will follow the teachings carefully", he didn't necessarily take it seriously. Zhu Xiongying also knew a little about his cousin. He was relatively studious and had a tolerant temperament, but he was just a little kid.

Even though he is older, he has a bit of a smile on his face, and he also has a dark underbelly under his honest and honest appearance.

Just when Zhu Xiongying finished greeting his brothers, Zhu Yunxi came over and said, "Brother, the eldest sister and the second sister are here too, and many of the noble ladies of the clan have also left the city."

At this point, Zhu Xiongying also wondered, "What's wrong? I want them to greet me when I return to Beijing? Is this an outing or something?"

Zhu Yunxi immediately winked at Zhu Xiongying, and the meaning could not be more obvious.

Zhu Xiongying didn't bother to pay attention to this little brother who was playing tricks, and he didn't care about the burning and gossipy eyes of others, and walked towards the female family members.

Zhu Qinghui immediately bowed down and said, "My sister congratulates His Royal Highness the Grandson on his return from his inspection tour of Jingchu."

After glaring at Zhu Qinghui and Zhu Qingning, Zhu Xiongying walked straight to He Yuyao and said, "It will be my mother's birthday in a few days. You can go back and copy some filial piety scriptures and present them to my mother and concubine then."

He Yuyao's face turned red, but she immediately saluted and said, "Your Majesty, I accept the order."

Zhu Xiongying thought for a moment and then said, "After some time, your status will no longer be appropriate. After you go to the Prince's Palace in Kaiping, remember to pray for me in front of the tomb of Prince Kaiping. If you have time, ask your father and brother to take you to your hometown in Guide."

, worship at Xuwang Temple for three days."

Although the words of the emperor's grandson seemed calm, and even meant a direct order, He Yuyao was not unhappy at all, and was filled with a huge surprise. Even these days, he understood that he was favored by the emperor, and could serve the emperor.

Having a grandson is a great joy in itself.

But He Yuyao is actually also worried. Although there are a lot of voices about her being selected as a concubine, judging from various signs, she does not seem to be treated like a concubine, but there is no guarantee that something will happen and she will become a concubine.
p>

And the things arranged by the grandson now show that her identity is extraordinary. Whether she is praying in front of the king of Kaiping, or returning to the queen's hometown to offer sacrifices, she is required to appear as her grandson's daughter-in-law.

Although it was a little early and seemed to have no status, etc., there were some things that the old Zhu family didn’t particularly care about.

The emperor did not establish himself as King of Wu before he ascended the throne, but after becoming emperor, he gave the title of "King of Wu" to the current King of Zhou. Even if the title has been changed now, if he really cared about something, the emperor would not canonize him in the first place.

King Wu.

He Yuyao also understood that if she was enthroned as a grandson concubine, she would still have to sacrifice to King Guide. However, she would not be able to worship to King Kaiping, and her identity would then become a 'king'.<

/p>

This can be regarded as a time difference. The emperor's grandson asked for this, and He Yuyao naturally had no objection.

As for copying the "Book of Filial Piety", that is also a great honor. To copy the "Book of Filial Piety" for the princess, even a noble female family member is not qualified.

After saying this, Zhu Xiongying ignored the other girls with burning eyes. He was not interested in those girls who did not have long hair.

As for He Yuyao, her feet are like cotton now, and the enthusiasm of the female family members of the Ming Dynasty for her has naturally increased a lot. They have heard some of the words of the emperor's grandson, and all of this has confirmed He Yuyao's identity and status.

And those female relatives of Wu Xun are envious of He Yuyao. They are jealous and want to please at the same time. Even though they are the daughters of the Duke or the Marquis, the daughter of Dongguan Bo will become the grandson concubine.

This was regarded as giving He Yuyao some honor. Zhu Xiongying didn't care too much and just entered the city.

You have to organize your words now. Although you didn't care when you were running wild outside, because your grandparents couldn't hit him. But now that you are home, if you say the wrong thing, it is very likely that you will get a beating.
p>

Although Zhu Xiongying is a majestic grandson and general outside, in front of his grandparents, he is a grandson.

Zhu Xiongying is worried, and Zhu Zi is actually worried. He has done something stupid and will definitely be scolded after returning to the palace.

Even if they have done a good job of psychological construction, it is inevitable that they will still be a little nervous when things come to a head. In fact, Princess Tan Princess Yu is also worried. The emperor and queen love their children, but they will definitely be angry at them for not taking good care of Prince Tan.

The princess has some punishments.

I still feel a little worried and frightened when I go back home. How can I explain this?!

However, all of this is probably his own fault. If he had not committed any crime, he would not be as weak as he is now.

It was better to strike preemptively. Zhu Xiongying felt that he had to be arrogant even if he was not justified at this time. Without some effective measures, Zhu Xiongying would definitely be criticized by the whole family. This was obviously not what Zhu Xiongying wanted to see.

Anyway, Zhu Xiongying felt confident that he had not made any mistakes. It was his eighth uncle who made the mistake, and I was there to do business!
