Wang Ning covered her face and cried, then ran away in embarrassment.
When he came, he thought that the King of Han was doomed, but at this moment he realized that maybe he was the one who was doomed.
Even Zhu Gaoxu despises himself as a person, how can he still mess around in the future?
I'm just afraid that no one will play with me in the court hall.
Could it be that a dignified prince-in-law can only stay at home and act as an apartment?
Wang Ning was heartbroken and went home dejected. Unexpectedly, he bumped into Princess Huaiqing. When he took away the gift from King Han, Princess Huaiqing didn't know that it was her nephew's filial piety, so why should he take it away?
"What's going on? Does the King of Han want you to ask for a gift, or something? Where did you take the things?"
Facing his wife's question, Wang Ning was speechless. After a long time, he said: "Yes, the imperial court is inspecting the Han Dynasty's palace. I have to go there. It would be bad if our family is implicated."
Princess Huaiqing frowned, "Why, the King of Han is implicated again? What did he commit?"
Wang Ning was stunned for a moment, then said bitterly: "It seems, probably, maybe, this time the King of Han did not commit any crime, and he also made meritorious deeds."
The more Princess Huaiqing heard, the more something was wrong. Wang Ning hesitated and simply called his son Wang Zhenliang over.
Zhu Di laughed and said: "With filial sons and loyal ministers, why worry about the Ming Dynasty not being able to revive! I am really happy today, very happy... Dear ministers, please tell me how to handle this matter. Should we follow the rules of Zheng Shangshu?
Word?"
Zhu Di had a happy smile on his face, "Okay, if you think so, you are indeed my good son. What you did this time is actually beneficial to the country and the people!"
If not, please ask your Majesty for help and simply drive Wang Ning out.
"Who? Who is so shameless?" Princess Huaiqing blurted out.
Empress Xu really couldn't resist, so she had to ask someone to invite Zhu Di. As a result, the eunuch who went there came back soon. His Majesty was discussing the affairs of the King of Han, so it was better to wait a moment.
"Your Majesty, Xu Tongzheng's whims are absolutely unworkable."
"Ah!" Princess Huaiqing was greatly surprised, "If all his property has been confiscated, how can he still have any money?"
Wang Ning tried to stop him, but his son's legs and feet were so fast that he turned around and ran away... About half a day later, Wang Zhenliang came back panting.
"Oh, my mother, who said you would have no money if you ransacked your house? If you don't have the money, someone is willing to borrow it. Unknown to others, Xu Tongzheng proposed to sponsor one million to the King of Han, as well as Cheng Guogong and Cao Guogong, each of whom also had to contribute.
Three hundred thousand, as well as the Marquis of Jing'an, so many people lined up to give money to the King of Han. Not for anything else, just for the golden sign of the King of Han. He was good to the people and loyal to the court. If he encountered a fine, he
Pay the money honestly, who would be worried about doing business with such a prince?"
But at this moment, how could they dare to stop him? Anyone who said one more word would be waiting to have their home searched and thoroughly investigated!
"Good! Such a brave and loyal person!"
This princess wants to make peace and leave!
At this time, Xu Jingchang, Xia Yuanji, Jian Yi, Zheng Ci, the King of Han Zhu Gaoxu, and other officials gathered in the Golden Palace.
"Go and find out carefully what's going on?"
Wang Zhenliang said: "Mother, you don't know. After this news got out, everyone was clamoring to support him, so that His Highness, the King of Han, could not suffer. Some people said that if they borrow money in the future, they would only go to the King of Han, and they would look for the King of Han.
A person with a conscience."
He just needs to mediate and sit and count the money.
"What do you know?" Princess Huaiqing asked.
Having said this, Zheng Ci's eyes turned red. He was really a good official who dedicated himself to serving the people.
The next day, Princess Huaiqing went directly to the palace to meet Empress Xu. As soon as they met, she and her fourth sister-in-law hugged each other and burst into tears... With such a husband, my life is over.
Zhu Di frowned slightly, "This method sounds good, but how much money does the King of Han have, and how much can he lend out? I'm afraid it won't benefit too many people, right?"
Especially Zheng Ci, the Minister of Punishment, knew that the gentry could not accommodate him, and he was thinking of finding a new home... Seeing the King of Han being praised, he immediately said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Han has set an example for the world. There have always been gentry
The tyrants exploited the people with heavy profits, broke their bones and sucked out their marrow, and returned home thirteen times. Many people were forced to sell their children and daughters, and went bankrupt. When they talk about it, they are filled with bitter tears. The people's livelihood is difficult, and there is nothing worse than this."
"Knowing that the King of Han was kind-hearted, he borrowed money at an interest rate of 15% to help the merchants and the people. It was 15% lower than the cheapest. He can be called a great benevolent man. But in the end, such a great benevolent man was framed and his property was confiscated.
, even the bed where I slept was confiscated, what a tragedy!"
Zhu Di smiled with approval, "I have known for a long time that people's livelihood is difficult. If Zheng Shangshu thinks so, it is not in vain for me to promote you!"
Zheng Ci hurriedly leaned over and thanked the Holy Father for his grace.
After finishing speaking, Zhu Di turned his head and looked at the ministers present, "Everyone, let's talk about what to do, right?"
There is really no way to deal with this thing.
After he finished speaking, Wuzhong, the minister of Dali Temple, also stepped forward, and then several other important ministers stepped forward one after another.
Wang Zhenliang rolled his eyelids and lowered his head.
Princess Huaiqing was stunned for a moment and suddenly realized something.
Princess Huaiqing was puzzled, "He is so miserable, how can he show his face?"
It took Princess Huaiqing a while to understand. Good guy, Zhu Gaoxu was a blessing in disguise. Some people were willing to give him money and others were willing to borrow money from him.
It's rare that Zhu Di has a smile on his face. This kid Zhu Gaoxu is really like him.
Before Xu Jingchang could finish speaking, Guo Zi, the censor of Zuodu, immediately stood up and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, what Xu Tongzheng said is not new. When King Anshi of the Northern Song Dynasty carried out his reform, he used the Green Seedling Method. As a result, this method harmed the country and the people, and the people were exploited and shaken.
The country is destined to cause endless disasters, and such evil laws must never appear in the Ming Dynasty! I risk my life to report this, and please observe it clearly!"
Just when everyone was speechless, Xia Yuanji took a step forward and said in a trembling voice: "I second the proposal, please grant Xu Tongzheng's request."
Then he said loudly: "Your Majesty, please follow the precedents of the King of Han to conduct a thorough investigation of the loans of all state governments in the world. Anyone who exploits the people for excessive profits and forces their families to die must be severely punished! The Ministry of Punishment will send officials to conduct thorough investigations everywhere. Local officials dare to
Protect me and investigate the crime together! I am ready. If we conduct a thorough investigation this time, if 999 heads are chopped off, I will chop off the 1,000th one. I am asking for my life for the people, and I am not afraid of life or death!"
Queen Xu was so confused that Princess Heli had no experience!
I just ask my sister-in-law to show mercy and make it clear to the King of Han that this is all the work of the consort. He, the aunt, and the two cousins are all good.
"How about you just make do with it!"
"No! Never!"
Zhu Di glanced at Xu Jingchang, "So many ministers are against it, what do you have to say?"
Everyone was silent, but they did not expect that one person said quietly: "Your Majesty, Zheng Shangshu's ideas are too one-sided. He can't see the forest for the trees. But considering that he is just the Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, it is understandable."
That night in the Prince Consort's house, the couple mingled together, which was called a happy and harmonious couple.
Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, haste makes waste in this matter. If the Yamen are allowed to intervene, there will definitely be a ridiculous situation like the Song Dynasty where young people were lent money to the citizens. The King of Han respects the rules of business, and only by being willing to do so can we truly take care of him.
The common people... As for your majesty's concerns, I think that the Ministry of Revenue can provide financial guarantee to the King of Han through the Baochao Bureau. As the treasured banknotes circulate, the amount needed will naturally increase greatly. If the people get the money, they can avoid exploitation. The King of Han also
The profits can be shared with the Ministry of Household Affairs, and this move can also enrich the national treasury. Everyone from top to bottom has benefited. Who else will suffer? I don’t know, can any adult give me some advice?"
Xu Jingchang just turned his head to one side, fearing that watching too much would affect his appetite.
"Your Majesty, the key to this matter is not how many powerful gentry should be punished, nor how many heads should be cut off. It is that the people have a need for loans, and there are huge profits. If the imperial court can grasp this matter, it will definitely be able to
Effectively filling the shortfall..."
However, if he loses something and gains something in the east, he will have to be a lonely minister in the future.
Even in the Battle of Jingnan and the bloody charge, Zhu Di did not receive such praise. This shocked Zhu Gaoxu, and the long-lost father's love returned.
Is there anyone here who doesn’t get rich?
"I can't make it, Sister-in-law, I'm blind. I'm married to a capricious villain. My life is over... Wuwuwu."
"Then let's also send some money to the King of Han, doesn't he have a good relationship with us?" Princess Huaiqing said anxiously.
The more I watch, the more I like it!
"Although the King of Han did not pay the taxes in advance this time, he honestly repented afterwards and compensated the taxes and fines without any complaints. The prince broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people. I, a member of the Zhu family, must do this and set an example for the people of the world. I am very relieved.
, I feel so relieved!”
Wang Zhenliang's face immediately collapsed, "Mom, I also heard that the King of Han was betrayed by his friends. He thought that the court was going to raid his house, so he took the evidence to report the King of Han and accused him of a black case!"
Her Royal Highness the Princess stood up and went directly to Wang Ning to settle the score.
Can no one be harmed?
Those gentry and wealthy families who made loans in the past are all in trouble. One of the best ways to make money has been cut off for life.
"Mother, His Highness the King of Han has shown his face this time. Now the whole of Yingtian knows about it."
However, he glanced at Xu Jingchang and remembered his original warning. Zhu Gaoxu trembled and said hurriedly: "My child only knows how to share the worries of his father, serve the Ming Dynasty, and concentrate on doing things. Nothing else!"
Zhu Di said: "You said that Zheng Shangshu has a poor vision, so what do you have in mind?"
When the Holy Family is exhausted, it will come to an end.
No one is a fool who has witnessed the scene of the Zhu family's loving father and filial piety.
Everyone present looked at each other in astonishment. It was true. This was the first time Zhu Di had praised a minister like this since he came to the throne. Zheng Ci had found this guy.
Xu Jingchang smiled and said: "Because so many ministers opposed it, I am confident. The King of Han abides by the laws and cares for the people, and everyone knows that. The King of Han's lending to foreign countries is not the court's lending. This move avoids the biggest drawback of the Young Miao Law."
Both the borrower and the lender are consensual. If there is forced lending or extortion, the courtiers will impeach the King of Han, and I will not protect the King of Han."
"Wang Ning! You bastard!"
Anyone who dares to pour cold water on this juncture would not be the second choice except Xu Jingchang.
The ministers were shocked. Xia Yuanji was desperate. The treasure banknote was about to explode. This was the last chance.
Zhu Di nodded, "Very good, I'm very relieved today... I'm passing on the decree to prepare a royal banquet, I want to treat you."
I recommend a new book. Although it is written by a newbie, it has great potential. "The World of American Comics, Players' Bizarre Adventures"
