As Zhou Chaozong finished speaking, the elegant room was as quiet as death.
Zhu Youde was very interested.
Born into a wealthy family, but thinking about killing the wealthy family, what kind of spirit is this?
Leading the way?
He didn't say anything. He would wait and see. Lu Shengzhi on the other side felt tired.
What’s wrong with this world!
The emperor deliberately wanted to clean up the wealthy family. This was nothing, as long as he didn't lead to death.
In the feudal era, the royal family and the wealthy families would find their own balance.
Throughout thousands of years of history, every dynasty has done this, even the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
If the royal family and the wealthy families maintain a certain balance, the country will naturally be peaceful and prosperous.
But Emperor Zhu is different!
Although Zhu Youde has not yet crudely stated that he wants to kill people to solve the problem, he already has this tendency!
Now there is another Zhou Chaozong who is willing to take the initiative to help deceive the wealthy family.
This person comes from a wealthy family, so he must be well versed in the affairs of wealthy families!
What Zhu Youde lacks now is the lack of rich people who take the initiative to seek refuge.
It's like a female ticket holder meets a young lady, making a fire without starting a fire.
Wang Zhonghou, a dead eunuch, looked at Zhou Chaozong and immediately felt that he was very handsome. He was a talented person.
Lu Shengzhi thought for a while, and in order to prevent Zhu Youde from actually being tempted to cause massacres in the southeast, he quickly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, you cannot listen to these people. The emperor governs the country with an aboveboard plan and uses upright methods. Such talents in the world
Nothing to say!"
"In order to gain a better status for themselves and just to please Your Majesty, common people like Zhou Chaozong must act carelessly and ignore His Majesty's reputation. Moreover, how can common people know about national affairs? Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, even if you are an employee, you should
After passing the imperial examination, there are many talented people in the imperial examination, so those talents should be appointed!"
"Besides, official positions are important assets of the country and cannot be given to others easily. Your Majesty, please think twice!"
Zhu Youde was so fed up!
Can’t someone like Zhou Chaozong use it?
He was really moved, but looking at Lu Shengzhi kneeling down, Zhu Youde had to be serious!
Because Lu Shengzhi is now in a serious posture of emperor and minister confronting each other, as an emperor, he must also show the necessary posture!"
"What you said makes sense. Official positions belong to the country and cannot be given to others easily. A humble citizen of the imperial family who has not contributed to the imperial court cannot get the position easily!"
Lu Shengzhi nodded after hearing this and glanced at Zhu Youde. "You finally look like an emperor."
But Zhu Youde said again: "However, I see that Chaozong is quite courageous, and he is very sincere towards the royal family. He can set an example for merchants. It would be against the custom of the royal family to reward him if I don't reward him!"
Zhou Chaozong is so loyal that he is willing to betray his family for me. How can he not reward him?
If you don’t reward me, you are a fool!
"Chaozong!"
Zhou Chaozong immediately reacted, "Xiaomin is here!"
"I understand what you are asking for, but you have not contributed to the imperial court now. Official position is an important weapon of the imperial court, and I cannot give it to you!"
Zhou Chaozong could endure it very well, which also showed that this man had an extraordinary mind.
Zhu Youde was very satisfied, "But I have also felt your loyalty to me, and I have granted you permission to enter Shangfang Mansion to engage in the fifth grade and assist Mr. Lu in promoting shuttle looms. On the day of success, I will not hesitate to be rich and powerful, and I will come again."
Granted the status of a royal student."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhou Chaozong was already very satisfied. He also knew very well that the benefits Zhu Youde could give him were the limit.
However, Zhou Chaozong didn't like Lu Shengzhi. If it weren't for this old man, he might have become an official directly.
Zhu Youde thought for a moment: "Well, as a Taipei student, you have to pay."
Lu Shengzhi frowned and shouted angrily: "Your Majesty!"
Zhu Youde jumped!
What's wrong?
Is it okay for a Tai student not to give money?
Why is this old man so angry?
"Lv Gong, why are you angry? This is just a business. The emperor is loyal and willing to donate silver for my use. How can I not want it?" Zhu Youde said shamelessly: "If you don't believe it, ask him if he paid for it voluntarily. I
It’s time to steal his money!”
Without Zhu Youde's hint, Zhou Chaozong said loudly: "Everything owned by the common people belongs to His Majesty, and the common people do it voluntarily!"
Zhu Youde smiled and said: "Lv Gong, look at it!"
"Your Majesty..." Lu Shengzhi suddenly had a toothache!
You are the emperor, you are raising money with a common man, you are the emperor’s face!
"Your Majesty, a gentleman is known as righteousness, and a villain is known as benefit!"
The corner of Zhu Youde's mouth twitched. Lu Shengzhi reminded him that as an emperor, you talk about the interests of your family and country, and talking about money is the behavior of a villain.
for free?
What about the country?
I don’t know how difficult it is to be a master!
Is it easy to be an emperor?
Zhu Youde likes to talk about money, which is great, but Lu Shengzhi is also very old.
"This will never happen again!"
This time, of course, we were going to talk about money. He also expected Zhou Chaozong to spread the word about what happened today!
It's a pity that there is no advertising media now, otherwise Zhu Youde's advertisements for Jinling Blue Bird would be so popular.
As for what the scholars in the world will think, let them die.
After the attack on the palace gate and the blocking incident, Zhu Youde had a bad impression of the scholar.
"Your Majesty, I got a Buddha statue from Nanyang in my early years. I heard that Your Majesty paid homage to the Buddha and I want to give it to Your Majesty. I don't know if I can do it!"
At this time Zhou Chaozong suddenly said!
Zhu Youde was stunned and immediately laughed.
Ouch, this middle-aged man knows it very well!
"If that's the case, then I won't be polite!"
Zhou Chaozong quickly asked someone to fetch it. When he saw the Buddha statue, Zhu Youde was terrified!
This Buddha statue is green and crystal clear, with ruby eyes and a gold crown on its head. The key is that it is big enough!
It takes three people to lift it, weighing a hundred pounds.
Zongdao of the Zhou Dynasty said: "The common people know that their merits are shallow and they cannot afford to worship Buddha statues like this. Only the Heavenly Family can worship them."
Lu Shengzhi was very angry. In his opinion, Zhou Chaozong had already shown his talent as a traitor.
How dare you directly give gifts to the emperor and invite favors? This is not a treacherous minister!
Zhu Youde glanced at Wang Zhonghou, who immediately nodded: "Your Majesty, there is still a lack of such a Buddha statue in the inner courtyard of the palace. The queen also said last time that the current Buddha statues in the palace are too ordinary and disrespectful to the Buddha!"
"Is that so? The same goes for the Queen. She has never told me that she cannot be disrespectful to the Buddha, so I will accept this Buddha statue!" Zhu Youde thought for a moment: "But I cannot accept offerings from the public casually. Since ancient times, courtesy has been exchanged.
Then let the Ministry of Internal Affairs prepare a similar Buddha statue for the emperor."
"Old slave obeys the order!"
Wang Zhonghou and Zhu Youde are as serious as singing a big show. With this program, you can accept this gift openly!
As for what Zhu Youde said about giving Zhou Chaozong something similar, just think of it as fart.
And after all this, the imperial censor could not say anything!
Emperor Zhu did not just accept gifts from others casually, everyone just reciprocated as courtesy!
No matter how much Yanguan Yushi manages, can he still control the emperor and make friends?
Zhu Youde likes friends like Zhou Chaozong the most. After all, he is a real rich man.
