First Prince of Ming Dynasty

After listening to Zhu Di's words, Zhu Biao raised his head and patted his forehead. That's why it's so difficult to rule officials. Anyone who can be an official has no relatives and friends. If you ask left and right, you can always ask for the top. Tradition, if you always do the matter of mortal enemies, who can guarantee that you will have a smooth life for the rest of your life.

Since ancient times, any king may have thought about eradicating the rule of officials, but only Lao Zhu and Yongzheng were the ones who were really cruel. Unfortunately, there was a bottoming out in the end. Generally clean.

After all, those who can become officials are people with strong will and strong desires. Ten years of hard work is not something ordinary people can persist. They have paid a lot for something, whether it be fame or money, and how many of them are for the safety of the country and the people. There may be many such people in the future, but currently there are very few people who have this awareness.

Seeing his elder brother's worried look, Zhu Xi took the initiative to say: "I just want peace of mind, elder brother don't need to think too much, father and emperor are determined to eliminate the officials, since my uncle is corrupt, he should be punished."

Zhu Biao waved his hand and said: "Don't say anything on the surface, you are my younger brother, since you have spoken, I will always plan for you as an elder brother."

"Since the father didn't see Concubine Li, it means a lot. After all, Li Shilang is the uncle of the two of you, and he can be regarded as a relative of the emperor. I am afraid that the father also has the intention of killing chickens and monkeys. In this case, unless you can talk to the mother, otherwise It's useless for anyone to go."

Zhu Xi sighed: "Let's not talk about the people of the Li family, even the people of the Ma family will not be able to intercede after the mother commits a crime. Third, don't bother your elder brother any more. Didn't I explain to you when I came here just now!"

Zhu Di ignored these two people and said directly: "Brother, even if Li Shilang can't be saved, what about the rest?"

Zhu Di's mind was really turning quickly, and Zhu Biao didn't say anything false: "First make up for the shortfall, and then let Li Shilang take the initiative to surrender to Dali Temple. I will send an order to Dali Temple Minister Yan Donglai, and I will not pursue the rest of the Li family. , so it can be regarded as protecting most people.”

Zhu Xing and Zhu Xing got up and thanked Zhu Biao. They naturally knew that it was just a superficial article to go to the capital at a loss, and the key point was the order passed down by their elder brother. Sooner or later, who would care about the gold, silver and stones.

If they entrust the relationship by themselves, no one will care about them at all. The Dali Temple will not give them any face, and even severely punish them to show their loyalty to the crown prince.

Zhu Biao waved his brother to excuse him, then looked at Liu Jin and said, "Go and get three thousand taels."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yan hurriedly said: "How can the elder brother pay the money? The Li family still has some savings, and we can just scrape together the rest."

The other two also wanted to speak, and Zhu Biao waved his hand and said, "You don't have much money in Fan's hands, okay, go to work, if you don't make up the shortfall, you will be arrested by Dali Temple, but it will be too late .”

The two brothers saluted solemnly. The money given to the prince in the palace was neither too much nor too little, but they were also extravagant in spending money. How could there be any savings? If it's not enough, I can get together from those few good and noble children, and the Li family's family fortune can also make up for it, but now the eldest brother helps to solve it all.

After they all left, Zhu Biao got up and moved around. This kind of thing is either not helped or helped to the end. Although it can be solved by giving 1,000 taels, why bother? Since you want the younger brothers to be grateful, of course you have to hurry up, and they will be a slave in the future, and sending 30,000 taels will have no effect.

After Liu Jin sent them back, she looked at her prince with resentment and said, "Master, there are only two hundred taels of silver left in the East Palace treasury..."

(;゜0゜)(╯°°)╯︵┻━┻

Zhu Biao was taken aback for a moment. He really didn't care about his own things. After thinking for a while, he wondered: "I remember that the Curry is full, isn't it? Why are there only two hundred taels left?"

Liu Jin sighed and said, "The things in the treasury are all for the Queen's use. Your Highness and the Crown Princess can use them for themselves, but it's not decent to sell them."

Before Zhu Biao could ask Liu Jin, he continued: "Moreover, 80% of the items in it are the dowry of the Crown Princess, and the rest are mostly tribute medicinal materials given by the Holy Majesty and the Empress..."

Zhu Biao was speechless, thinking in his heart that all the gold and silver mountains belong to the palace. Speaking of which, the Iwami Silver Mountain in Japan should have been discovered. After the layout of Goryeo is over, I am afraid that there will be no money. ,snort!

After such a spiritual victory, Zhu Biao was satisfied with his hands and prepared to wake up the princess for a walk. It is better for the pregnant person to exercise more, and he will have the strength to give birth when the time comes.

Liu Jin sighed behind him. My father was also lavish. He actually saved a lot of the money in the East Palace. Over the years, he received and gave away. Although he never received too much from others, most people would not come here. No, it's also fortunate that the families in Jiangnan are generous, otherwise they would have used the three thousand taels today to touch the crown princess's dowry.

Not to mention the unhappy ones, Zhu Biao walked on the road and let his thoughts go blank. As the mother family of the second prince and the third prince, the Li family probably wouldn't involve too many people in this matter even if he didn't take action. After all, even if Lao Zhu didn't care about Concubine Li , also have to take into account the face of the two sons.

I don’t see Concubine Li, it’s probably because he wants him to be a good person. The younger brothers are nothing now, but when they become vassals in the future, they will all be vassal kings with soldiers and land. It will not be easy to discipline them. The younger brothers are convinced that it will be a good thing for the country and the family in the future.

There is no small matter involving the kings in the future. In this world, not only the imperial court is in operation, but also large and small clans. The combination of the two forms an order. The royal family is not only to lead the court, but also to set an example for the clans in the world. , positive elements such as filial piety, family harmony and harmony are all necessary.

To be honest, he was not used to this at first. After all, the concept of relatives in later generations is weak, and most of them live their own small lives, and they only go around during festivals.

But in an era of underdeveloped productivity, the clan is not a cage that restricts individual freedom, but a protective umbrella. A family cannot survive here. Without the protection of the clan, no matter what they do, they will be eaten up sooner or later. There are people out there for you.

That's why he takes care of his younger brothers and sisters. Even if he is a little tired, there is nothing he can do. He wants to do too many things, and he really doesn't have the energy to spend with his brothers. As long as they are obedient, it will be easy to arrange for them in the future. Anyway, the world is so big , If you want to do harm, go!

It doesn't matter if you don't want to, he can't afford the wealth of generations of nephews and grandchildren, as long as the rules are set, it's better than everyone staring at this dragon chair.
