Chapter 308

Opening

Zhu Yunyou is a diligent emperor. As for whether he has become a good emperor, it is hard to say, at least he has to leave it to future generations for comments. Now he doesn’t care about those things at all, and now he doesn’t have much to comment on for future generations.

Zhu Yunyou, sitting on the dragon throne, watched the civil and military officials report some situations, and he knew a lot of things.

At this moment, Yu Xin stood up. He, the Minister of Revenue, still has a lot of real power, and he is indeed an important official of the Ming Dynasty. As for whether he is Zhu Yunyou's confidant, it doesn't matter. After all, Zhu Yunyou is the emperor now, and all the civil and military officials of the court are his subjects. He doesn't need to cultivate some teams like the time of the Emperor's grandson.

"Speak to Your Majesty, the court has opened China and France, and most merchants have transported food and wages to the border." Yu Xin reported at this time, with a serious expression, "Now the court is stable, and there is no war on the frontier. Please report to abolish China and France!"

The opening of China and France was the method implemented by the imperial court to recruit merchants to receive military rations, horses and other materials using salt and tea as an intermediary. This was also the urgent need for military rations in the border areas at the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, so merchants could only participate in these matters.

It means it is divided into three steps: report, support, and market.

The report shows that the salt merchants transported the grain to the designated border area granaries according to the requirements of the Ming government's investment list, and exchanged them for salt to the government for salt. After the salt merchants exchanged for salt, they used the salt to transport the salt to the designated salt field to wait for the salt to be supported. The market is that the salt merchants transported the salt they obtained to the designated area for sales.

These did bring a lot of help to the Ming Dynasty, which also made the Ming Dynasty's border reserves relatively sufficient. However, some problems have also arisen now. For example, some royal families, nobles or civil and military officials saw that it was profitable to salt indices, and then they resold them to salt merchants to make profits.

These not only destroyed the Kaizhong and France, but most importantly, they seriously affected the court's fiscal revenue.

As Yu Xin finished his report, the court immediately heard the discussions of the court officials. The opening of China and law can be said to have affected the trend of the court, and this is an extremely important thing for civil and military officials.

"Zhongshan Gong, you cannot go to China and France!"

"Duke Zhongshan, none of these literati are good! As soon as the war was over, they kept their minds at our martial arts honors!"

Some martial honors appeared next to Xu Huizu, who was renamed Zhongshan Duke, and they all had a common hatred for the enemy. When it comes to removing the matter of China and France, these martial honors were all more jumping.

Not to mention that those martial arts honors generally hold military power. If the military rations in the frontier are insufficient, it will naturally affect the military strength of the court. Although they may know that the Chinese and French taxes have some impact on the court's taxes, they do not care about so much and maintain the military front of the Ming Dynasty. This is what they care about.

What's more, many martial honors are actually profitable in Kaizhong and France. Wuxun itself holds the military power. Under the policy of Kaizhong and France, some "white gloves" are cultivated to transport grain to the frontier, and then exchange them for salt to attract them. Some smart martial honors have learned it.

Although you have a salary and your own land, who would dislike your own gold and silver? There is no harm in making more money.

What's more, many martial arts are also degenerate very quickly. They are not stingy in the battlefield and they are stingy in the peaceful years. They are all very happy. Those landlords and wealthy or civil officials who are full of knowledge dare not compete with martial arts and honors.

As a banner figure of Wu Xun, Xu Huizu's status is naturally extremely special and transcendent. His weight has a great impact on the formulation of some court policies.

Xu Huizu, who was ranked first in the Wuxun train, was not polite and whispered, "Go back to the shift! Noisy, what's it like!"

Guo Ying seemed to have reacted at this time, stroked her white beard and said, "Everyone can't hold back?! Go back, don't let those scholars laugh at us!"

Xu Huizu is the leader of Wuxun, so his words are naturally very important. Guo Ying, the Marquis of Wuding, was originally Lao Zhu's confidant, and now he is also a relative of Lao Zhu, so his words are naturally worth it.

The most important thing is that it is now in the court. Many censors are eyeing this time, recording the loss of court affairs and other matters in the morning court.

Now that I see, although the civil officials are also talking about it, they are not as unruly as Wu Xun. At least those people still suppressed it a little, and Wu Xun was slowly rushing around, and it was really a little unruly.

Zhu Yunyou, who was sitting on the dragon throne, naturally said that after seeing all this, he really felt that many martial honors were somewhat unruly. However, such things are normal. Wuxun itself is relatively rough, and there are many martial honors in the court who conquers the world with Lao Zhu.

Originally, they were basically born into grass-roots heroes, or they did not keep up with their educational problems. So it is normal to have aristocrats in the third generation. Now many martial arts rules have not been fully learned. It would be strange to expect them to behave properly one by one.

Xu Huizu carefully glanced at Zhu Yunyou on the dragon throne. He chose to hold his troops calmly. He had not yet figured out His Majesty's attitude.

He had already received some reminders from the queen, and Xu Huizu naturally knew what to do at this time. He did not want to miss His Majesty's major affairs.

Zhu Yunyou was actually a little surprised. He originally wanted to find a suitable opportunity to mention the land reform, but he didn't expect Yu Xin to jump out.

Of course, what Yu Xin said actually has nothing to do with land reform, but it also has something to do with taxes. These are actually Yu Xin's job, and he is the Minister of Revenue, so these things are naturally Yu Xin's duties.

This has nothing to do with Zhu Yunyou. At least Zhu Yunyou did not give Yu Xin some tips. This is simply that Yu Xin performs his duties. This is Yu Xin's share of his worries with the king's salary. Such a good minister must be entrusted with important responsibilities and praised.

The calm Zhu Yunyou asked the ministries to go back to discuss. Things like opening China and France cannot be clarified at once. Some things still need to be discussed more, and Zhu Yunyou is very clear about this.

After the court was gone, Zhu Yunyou naturally returned to Wuying Palace. As the emperor, he would not just start the morning court. It was actually longer to review memorials in Wuying Palace, and it was also said that it was more important to handle government affairs in Wuying Palace.

Xu Huizu walked towards Wenhua Hall with the envious eyes of many people. The young prince went to Wenhua Hall to "work" again these days, mostly taught by Duke Liang and Duke Zhongshan.

Lan Yu, who was in the court in Shenyin, suddenly appeared and shouted loudly, "Big Nephew, you said yesterday that we like to use dangerous soldiers, so we have to say more!"

"Duke Liang." Xu Huizu was a little helpless and said to Lan Yu, "Your Highness's crown prince, the crown prince cannot be defeated! Our Ming Dynasty is powerful and the military's leading force is invincible. Your Highness does not need to take risks!"

This made Lan Yu unhappy. He exclaimed, "If we don't have to be in danger, how can we seize the king's tent and destroy the bandits?"

The two people started arguing again. Xu Huizu used troops almost the same as Xu Da, or he used troops more to say that Xu Da was steady in using troops. And Lan Yu grew up with Chang Yuchun, so there was naturally a stable side, but he was more brave and he really liked to use surprise troops.

The two of them quarreled while walking. Lan Yu thought he was an elder, and Xu Huizu felt that Lan Yu was not an elder, and not to mention that both of them had their own persistence. No one could convince anyone, so they had to let the prince take charge of the overall situation.

Shuangquan stood at the door of Wenhua Hall, and immediately jogged over when he saw the two dukes coming, "Two masters, your highness are waiting for you!"

Lan Yu glanced at her and didn't like her very much, "Your Highness is in the hall, aren't you waiting in front of you?"

Shuangquan was not annoyed, but just said, "Duke Liang, yesterday, the Duke of the Kingdom of China agreed to bring a fierce horse and a treasure blade to His Highness. Your Highness disliked someone to deceive him the most! Duke of China, why don't I help you with some care, Duke of China should go back first!"

Lan Yu was stunned for a moment and immediately showed a flattering smile, "I'm here for a good eunuch. Give us half an hour, let's come here now! But, the Emperor."

Lan Yu didn't believe it before he finished speaking. Shuangquan, the dog slave, could help him with some care, but the Supreme Emperor would definitely not help him with some care, and maybe he would have to fan the flames.

Xu Huizu remained silent and gently tucked his regular clothes. A small wooden knife hung around his waist. That was what he immediately made after he went to court yesterday. He chose the best one. He didn't want to disappoint His Royal Highness, let alone deceive the emperor!

Lan Yu cursed inwardly, this eldest nephew is a ghost of thought!

Although he cursed secretly, he still quickly found a way to make up for it. After passing the hurdle in front of him, the prince could not disappoint him. As for the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty, he would go to submit a memorial to apologize later, and this would be the case.

On the wide seat, Xiao Xiaozhu sat in the chair and was very happy to see Xu Huizu, "Uncle, my knife!"

Xu Huizu immediately bowed, raised the wooden knife with both hands, "Take the emperor, me."

"Shuangquan, our knife!" Xiao Xiaozhu was very happy and said excitedly, "Go and lead the horse, we are going to fight with our grandfather!"

Shuangquan immediately quickly took the wooden knife from Xu Huizu's hand and put in the fun to please Xiao Xiaozhu. "Your Highness, Your Majesty the Supreme Emperor said that if Your Highness has no army, Your Majesty will not fight with Your Highness."

"My uncle is a forward!" Xiao Xiao Zhu was extremely excited when he pointed at Fu Rang, "You said that he is our small forward!"

Fu Rang quickly showed a flattering smile and just coaxed the prince, and whatever the prince said would be.

Of course, the prince is young now, so he dares to agree to everything. If the prince grows a few years older and then talks about fighting with the Supreme Emperor, Fu Rang would not dare to agree. At that time, he would have to think about wiping his neck.
