Ming Dynasty: I, Zhu Gaoyun, inherited the command of Ju Ling.

84 system: Inventory of the Ming Emperor List, you Zhu Di can only rank fifth at most!

September of the eighth year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty.

Another month has passed.

Zhu Di has been paying attention to the income of the treasury during this time, since the salt merchants in Shandong began to prosper, not only the Qi Palace, but even the treasury of the Ming Dynasty has begun to fill!

The fourth child even stipulates that if a salt merchant evades taxes, once it is found, the goods will be permanently out of stock, and the salt will be confiscated, and the house will be raided in serious cases!

Without the introduction of salt, it is equivalent to cutting off the foundation of these salt merchants' business, so none of these salt sellers dare to cheat on the issue of taxation!

This also directly benefited the imperial court, not to mention that since last month, the Qi Wangfu has begun to steadily send salt to the imperial court!

This is equivalent to sending white flowers to the imperial court!

"It is said that the dragon gave birth to nine sons, and I, Zhu Di, can be regarded as giving birth to a unicorn!"

Looking at the white silver in the treasury, Zhu Di couldn't help laughing.

The crown prince Zhu Gaochi on the side, the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously.

The old man's evaluation of the fourth child is getting higher and higher!

Just seeing the fourth child helping the court make money, didn't you see how hard it was for him, the boss, to stay in the imperial study all day long to review and review the folds?

"Boss, you go and call the six ministers and a few princes to the Fengtian Palace, and wait for the father to announce an important matter!"

Without waiting for Zhu Gaochi to say anything, Zhu Di commanded directly at him.

Zhu Gao's words came to his mouth and swallowed again, and he could only act as Zhu Di's microphone again!

Inside the Fengtian Temple.

The ministers of civil and military affairs above the third rank and several national lords and nobles have all arrived.

Zhu Di sat on the dragon chair, glanced around at everyone present, and mentioned the defeat of Qiguo Gong Qiu Fu in the first battle of Mobei in the seventh year of Yongle.

A group of civil and military officials looked at each other, and they didn't know what His Majesty was doing with the old things?

At that time, Qiu Fu was not held accountable, could it be that this was a plan to settle accounts after the autumn?

"I have decided, at the latest next year, I will personally drive to Mobei! I called you over today to inform you that the six departments and all the generals who led the troops should move!"

"After the beginning of spring next year, I will choose the day to drive the emperor to conquer Mobei, and remember not to slack off in the training of the army, and at the same time, the grain and grass must also be collected properly!"

In the end, Zhu Di finally got to the point!

At this time, everyone reacted, and the old man was ready to move troops against Mobei!

And unlike the previous time when Qiu Fu was allowed to lead the troops, this time it was actually His Majesty the Emperor's personal expedition!

"Father, don't!"

Without waiting for other officials to speak, Zhu Gaochi was the first to stand up and oppose it!

The Ming Dynasty has just recovered from the Battle of Jingjing, and the imperial court finally has some money and food, although it is enough to support a northern expedition, but it can't just have 983 money to fight!

Fighting a war is tantamount to burning money, although the money in the Ming treasury has increased, but once there is a war, it may have to return to its original state!

Moreover, Zhu Gaochi has helped Zhu Di deal with state affairs in recent years, and he knows the importance of resting with the people, and the current full treasury is the best proof of this!

But once the Northern Expedition is put on the agenda, the money and food that have been accumulated with great difficulty will be sent out again at one time!

If you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, he Zhu Gaochi is even more distressed about the money in the treasury than Xia Yuanji, the head of the household!

Zhu Di was not angry because of Zhu Gaochi's obstruction, but quietly listened to what Zhu Gaochi said!

At the same time, those princelings who followed Zhu Gaochi's side also began to echo one after another!

It can be said that except for the military generals, most of the Wenchen, like Zhu Gaochi, did not support the Northern Expedition at this time!

Especially the emperor's personal expedition!

"Big brother, you can't say that, Warat Tartar deceives people too much, and even kills all the envoys sent by his father, can you swallow this breath?"

Zhu Gaochu was the first to stand up and refute Zhu Gaochi!

Not to mention that he didn't deal with the boss in the first place, with his character, he wished that Zhu Di could drive the expedition himself, and then he could follow him to the battlefield again to make meritorious contributions!

He knew that in the court, he, the king of Han, had no advantage at all over his eldest brother, who was already the crown prince, and most of the people who supported him were also military generals!

If he wants to establish his prestige and accumulate his merits, he can only rely on the road of war!

In other words, this is also the only chance for Zhu Gaoxu to prove himself!

How could he let go of an opportunity like this!

"That's right, big brother, the year before last, Wara Tartar killed the envoys of the Ming Dynasty, according to the character of his father, he should have prepared to drive the expedition in person at that time!"

"Didn't my father think about what you said?"

"Now that I can endure it until now, when the treasury is full, I will mobilize troops against Mobei, which is already considered a great grace of my father, and it is not easy to think of the life of the common people!"

Zhu Gaosui also coaxed at this time.

Not to mention, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui's words today can be regarded as talking about Zhu Di's heart, but it makes him quite comfortable!

In fact, as long as there is such a thing as a war, he also believes that these two sons will definitely be on his side!

Of course, it is clearer that the boss Zhu Gaochi will inevitably oppose it!

Since it was all expected by Zhu Di, Zhu Di naturally wouldn't be really angry because of this!

Seeing that the two factions of civil officials led by the crown prince and military generals led by the king of Han quarreled in the court, Zhu Di not only got angry, but laughed (addj).

That's what he wants!

"Alright, stop arguing!"

"I ask you, if you don't fight, what will you do with the money in this treasury?"

Zhu Di waved his hand, and then asked Zhu Gaochi and a group of civil officials.

"Father, the money in the treasury can't be easily moved, and it is all to be used to develop the people's livelihood, and the society is bright!"

Zhu Gaochi hurriedly admonished.

"Well, that's a good point!"

Zhu Di was waiting for this sentence.

"Huh?"

Zhu Gaochi was directly stunned!

What's going on today?

The old man has changed sex?

If he opposes him in the court on weekdays, maybe he will already be scolded at this time, how can he still boast about it?

Not only Zhu Gaochi, but even the brothers Zhu Gaochu and Zhu Gaosui were dumbfounded!

It doesn't seem like that's how the script is written, right?

What's wrong with the old man today?

What about the royal driver who said that he would conquer Mobei?

Our brothers support you so much, but you, the leader, have defected?

"Father, do you also think the Northern Expedition is inappropriate?"

Zhu Gaochi asked tentatively.

"Well, there's something wrong with hearing you say that!"

"We still have to develop Daming first, and then go to Mobei when the country really rises!"

Zhu Di nodded thoughtfully.

Now, it can be regarded as completely tidying up everyone present!

So easy to persuade?

I'm really not used to it!

"Since you all said that the money in the treasury should be used to do things that benefit the country and the people, then I want to use the money to build roads, you should have no opinion, right?"

Zhu Di suddenly asked at this time.

Zhu Gaochi's heart was a chuckle!

Not good!

I was tricked by this old man again!

This old man didn't plan to go north from the beginning, he just made a false shot, and then mentioned the matter of building roads, which means that he originally came to build roads!

And when a group of ministers heard this, they looked at each other even more!

The main reason is that Zhu Di changed too fast, so that they couldn't react for a while!

What the hell is it to build the road directly?

"This road construction should be regarded as a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, right?"

Zhu Di asked slowly.

"Uh... A good thing indeed!"

Zhu Gaochi agrees with this, and there is really no way to refute it!

And as long as the old man doesn't use this money to fight, the money he saves can be used for whatever he does, and building roads is also a good thing!

This is better than taking it to Mobei to give it to Ho, right?

"Well, since you, the prince, have nodded, the matter is settled!"

"Zhu Gaoxian, the king of Qi, built a workshop called a cement factory in Yantai Mansion, specializing in the production of something called cement!" (read violent novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"I'm sure you've heard about it, too!"

"In the past six months, the roads in Yantai City have been replaced with cement paved roads one after another!"

"Have these princes and households ever understood?"

Zhu Di directly turned to the topic and proposed to repair the cement road!

"Back to Your Majesty, this cement is indeed a good thing, and it is also a material produced by the King of Qi half a year ago, and the household department has been discussing with the prince a month ago, whether to get a batch of cement from the Qi Palace, and also replace all the roads in Yingtianfu with cement roads!"

Tobe Shangshu Xia Yuanji also stood up at this time and reported directly.

"That's right, this matter is already being discussed with Xia Shangshu!"

Zhu Gaochi also hurriedly answered.

"What do you mean by getting a batch of cement?"

"Could it be that you want the fourth child to pay tribute directly, right? What is the difference between this and giving it away for nothing?"

"Is it true that the cement over there is blown by the wind?"

Hearing the two of them say this, Zhu Di was immediately unhappy!

If it is to ask the fourth child to come out with a batch of cement to build the palace, then there is no problem, it is considered that the son is filial to Lao Tzu and helps Lao Tzu!

But if you want to renovate the entire Yingtianfu road, how much cement is needed?

These two people really dare to think about it!

As soon as he heard this, whether it was Xia Yuanji or Zhu Gaochi, their faces turned red, and they lowered their heads in embarrassment!

They really had the idea of prostituting for nothing from the beginning!

"It's okay to ask the fourth child for cement, but it's not allowed to ask for it in vain, boss, you can ask the fourth child to give you a preferential price, this is already the sky!"

"In addition, the roads in Yingtianfu are not in a hurry to repair for the time being, and the cement roads in Beiping have not been repaired yet, what are you repairing here?"

"If you want to build it, you have to build the other two roads!"

Zhu Di waved his hand, and ordered in a tone that could not be refused.

"I don't know what the father is talking about?"

Zhu Gaochi asked in some surprise.

"It's said that there are two roads, but in fact they are one road. "

"Build a road from Yingtianfu to Beiping Mansion, so that it will be convenient to move the capital in the future!"

"But this road must pass through the fiefdom of the fourth child, that is, it will extend to Yantai Mansion!"

"If other places want to build a road, let's build this road first!"

"Not only is it necessary to move the capital, but the army will really march north in the future, including any war, as long as this cement road is opened, the speed of this march and grain transportation alone can be greatly reduced!"

Zhu Di explained again.

As soon as he heard this, the court suddenly fell silent.

Obviously, everyone is also thinking about the feasibility of what Zhu Di said!

"Well, Erchen thinks this is feasible!"

"However, if you want to build a road, it will definitely require a lot of labor, and now the Grand Canal is also being repaired, I'm afraid there is a shortage of manpower!"

"If the road is built first, then the Grand Canal must be stopped!

Zhu Gaochi also saw that the old man's path should be cultivated, and it would definitely not work to do it directly with him, it would only backfire!

But there is still room for maneuver to use this matter to talk about the conditions!

"Good!"

"Then this matter will be led by the prince, and the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household will cooperate with the prince, and this road must be repaired for me!"

"As for the Grand Canal, it can be stopped temporarily, and hundreds of thousands of laborers will be invested in road construction first!"

Zhu Di waved his hand and agreed directly!

Compared to the convenience of this cement road, the Grand Canal is not so important!

Because he knows very well that as long as the cement road is opened to traffic, after the rubber trees can be harvested in a few years and the rubber tires are manufactured, it will only be more convenient to travel by land than by water, and the goods transported will definitely not be much less than that transported by ship!

"Father is wise!"

Zhu Gaochi also nodded in response.

The other officials saw that the prince nodded, and they had no objections.

After all, at present, the power of the princelings in the DPRK and China is the largest!

Zhu Di's own favorite is also fighting, for management matters, he basically gave power to Zhu Gaochi, the prince, Zhu Di himself only needs to hold the military power in his hands!

This is also the reason why people of later generations like to ridicule, saying that he Zhu Di is Zhu Gaochi's general of the expedition to the north!

But then again, Zhu Gaochi's ability to deal with state affairs is indeed very powerful!

Otherwise, Zhu Di would not be so relieved to hand over so many things to this fat man to deal with, mainly because he is still relatively beautiful in doing things!

Zhu Di also saw in his dream that the reason why he was able to sit back and relax in the Five Expeditions to Mobei was because of Zhu Gaochi, the prince of the prison country, who could ensure the stability of the Ming Dynasty's basic plate, and secondly, because of the land of Shandong, that is, the food supplied by the fourth child!

Zhu Gaochi is responsible for dealing with all kinds of government and political issues, and he only takes care of them in an orderly manner, and logistics and transportation can also be guaranteed!

Zhu Gaoxian's money and grain also made the treasury not so embarrassing, otherwise he would have hollowed out the Ming treasury a long time ago!

Although the five expeditions to Mobei in the original history, at most it is just for the people to tighten their belts and live, at least they can go on!

This is also the merit of the fourth child!

But what about the results of the five expeditions to Mobei?

After five expeditions, has the problem of Mobei been solved?

The answer is, it didn't work out!

At most, it is just ten or twenty years of recuperation for Daming!

Warat, Tatar, they are still like grasshoppers after the autumn, jumping everywhere, and finally kidnapped the emperor of the Ming Dynasty!

If it weren't for the last Qi King Zhu Gaoxian to come forward to put out the fire, where would the Ming Dynasty still come from Guozuo 618?

Without Zhu Gaoxian, the king of Qi, the Ming Dynasty would only have 276 years of national ancestry, and the world would fall into the hands of alien wild boar skins again!

So Zhu Di thought about all the problems!

Since you don't go to Mobei to fight, wouldn't it be beautiful to take out the money from the war to build roads and do something for the benefit of the country and the people?

It can also prepare for the relocation of the capital in the future and the complete solution of the grassland problem!

......

Night.

In Zhu Di's bedroom.

Lying on the dragon bed, Zhu Di was still thinking about the day's events!

The main reason is that the fourth brother is already in full swing to repair the road, so he must not be left behind, but he wants to move the capital to Beiping, there is no need to spend a lot of energy to repair Ying Tianfu well, but should repair the official road!

Of course, the main reason is because of the ranking of the Ming Emperor!

This is all judged by the merits of the emperor's reign!

[The ranking of the Ming Emperor is announced, and 3000 points of national fortune value are required!]

At this moment, the voice of the national sports system rang out!

"Take it, tell me quickly, what number am I in the ranking of the Ming Emperor?"

Zhu Di now has a lot of national fortune value, and it is related to his ranking, so he is quite happy!

[The host's ranking in the Ming Emperor's ranking is: fifth!]

The national sports system said slowly.

Hearing this, Zhu Di's eyes suddenly widened!

I was only ranked fifth!

The last time I saw that there was no avatar of his own on the Daming Dragon Coin of the later generations, he was in the egg pain!

Although this ranking also puts him in the top five, he is still a little unwilling!
