Chapter 411 The deep meaning of the emperor

The Supreme Emperor did not pay attention to those account books. The fact that the Zhen family was rich could not be hidden from the Supreme Emperor. The only surprise was the amount of the Zhen family's property.

However, this is not an accident. Without his support, the Zhen family is just a lamb to be slaughtered. How to deal with it is not a matter of a word from the emperor.

The Supreme Emperor really didn't understand why the Emperor was so eager to deal with the Zhen family.

"Your Majesty, can't you wait a hundred years before taking action? You and King Zhongshun are not short of money now, right?"

The emperor was helpless. He was unwilling to take action in advance, but the Zhen family was too arrogant. Somehow the Zhen family found out about the big ships being built in Songjiang Mansion. How dare they attack those ships?

Idea. They are not simple merchant ships, a large part of them are military warships.

In addition to warships, Songjiang Prefecture also has some artillery and muskets, which are used to equip warships.

The Zhen family wants to take advantage of those ships. What do they want to do?

Zhen Yingjia was not here, but if he were here, he would definitely complain. King Zhongshun also went to sea many times, and every time he came back with a full load. The news in Jiangnan was better than that in the capital, how could he not be jealous. They also wanted to cooperate with King Zhongshun, but

The conditions are too harsh. How could they be willing to give up most of their interests to King Zhongshun?

The Jiangnan family was short of everything else, but what they needed was a large ship capable of long voyages. They also thought about paying to buy it, but King Zhongshun refused to sell it. What should they do? They couldn't just watch King Zhongshun eat meat.

This is the reason why they took action against Songjiang Mansion.

At this moment, a reasonable Supreme Emperor is too important to the Emperor. Since he can talk, the Emperor doesn't care and directly expresses his inner plan.

On the one hand, it is to persuade the Supreme Emperor, which can reduce unnecessary disputes, and it is best to obtain the military power hidden in the hands of the Supreme Emperor; on the other hand, it is to hope that the Supreme Emperor can help find and fill the gaps. In terms of governance, the Supreme Emperor's experience is exactly what the Emperor

What is lacking.

Of course, the emperor was not without his efforts. The emperor wanted to have a good reputation, so the emperor gave him an idea, which was to solve the problem of smallpox. In ancient times, there was already a way to vaccinate people, using human pox, which was very risky.

Once, King Zhongshun mentioned it in front of Wang Tingxuan, and Wang Tingxuan proposed the method of cowpox, which is currently the safest and best way to deal with smallpox.

After that, King Zhongshun secretly reported it to the emperor, and did not ask for the credit this time. In fact, his and Wang Tingxuan's contributions were too great and they were not suitable to be in the limelight again. However, the emperor gave the errand to King Zhongshun again.

At present, the doctors under King Zhongshun have mastered the method of treating cowpox, and it can be said that the success rate is very high. However, it has not yet been verified by imperial doctors.

The Emperor was overjoyed when he got the news. He was very jealous that the Emperor could obtain seeds like sweet potatoes. If he had not abdicated, the credit would be his, so why would he worry about his future reputation.

Now that the cure for smallpox had been obtained, the Supreme Emperor became even more jealous. If the Zhen family had not been too greedy, his two good sons would not have let him know about such a good thing.

He made excuses indiscriminately, scolded the emperor and King Zhongshun, and let them leave.

King Zhongshun left the palace of the Supreme Emperor and said with a depressed look: "If I had known this was the case, I shouldn't have come here."

The emperor ignored him and said to himself that if he had known this earlier, you would definitely not have been able to run away. I can just leave the matter to you directly. Why bother to run away?

The Emperor's last curse was not concealed, and the eunuchs and guards surrounding him heard it, and the news naturally spread. The nobles who gathered at the Beijing Palace once again seemed to have received some kind of encouragement.

"Although there is news that the Supreme Emperor is dissatisfied with His Majesty's behavior, we have not seen the Supreme Emperor after all, so we don't know the specific circumstances."

"Then what should I do? The Supreme Emperor has not met anyone else. I don't know if Shang Zhezi can see the Supreme Emperor now."

"Why don't you pay back some of it first so that everyone looks good."

"Repay? What can we repay? The emperor doesn't trust us. There aren't many officials in the family, so they're all sitting on nothing. Just pay back the money and let the whole family drink from the northwest wind."

After discussing for a while, they started to quarrel.

Nowadays, the situation among the four princes and princes is quite complicated. Some families have high titles but low official positions; some families have low titles but high official positions. When nothing happens, everyone will save some face for each other, and it is really a struggle for interests.

And they won't give in.

Nowadays, the principals of the Nan'an Palace are all in southern Xinjiang. The Dongping County Prince and the Xining County Prince are also in the border areas. The princes of the two palaces have mediocre qualifications and have not achieved much. The highest status is the Beijing County Prince, but it is actually water-soluble.

There is no way to convince everyone.

"Okay, can the quarrel solve the problem? Now that the letter from the old lady of the Zhen family has entered the palace, the Supreme Emperor will probably miss the old relationship. The situation of each family is actually similar. Even if they can come up with money, it will still be hurt.

Let's move our muscles and bones. How about this, let's go to Zhezi together tomorrow to plead with the Supreme Emperor?"

Regardless of whether you want to repay the money or you don't want to pay it back at all, you will not refuse the request to see the Supreme Emperor.

Wang Tingxuan talked to Lin Daiyu at Lin's house for a while, and Lin Ruhai came back.

"Tingxuan, what's the news from the Emperor?"

"Don't worry, uncle, nothing unexpected will happen. The emperor has made up his mind this time and will not change it easily."

Lin Ruhai sighed and said: "I heard that many people have gathered at the Beijing Palace. They will probably go to see the Supreme Emperor tomorrow."

It's Shui Rong again. Wang Tingxuan really doesn't understand why the Beijing Palace insists on getting involved. The Beijing Palace has always been neutral, and Shui Rong suddenly takes sides, which is really puzzling.

"Beijing Palace is a king with a different surname. Because he handed over military power early, the royal family specifically allowed the title of Beijing Palace to be inherited for several more generations. However, the successive generations of successors to Beijing Palace did not live long. When it comes to Shui Rong's generation,

The titles will begin to decrease. The other kings with different surnames will have to wait for another generation before the titles will begin to decrease. How can families like them be willing to lose their titles." Lin Ruhai felt a little emotional, but also felt the same.

Not only did the Lin family have few heirs, but the life span of the head of the family was also not long. Lin Ruhai thought of the Lin family from the Prince's Palace in Beijing.

Wang Tingxuan also heard about this matter for the first time. He always thought that the Beijing Palace was like the other three kings with different surnames, and their titles would not start to be reduced for another generation. The reason why he got involved was because he could not be reused.

According to what Lin Ruhai said, it is impossible for the Prince of Beijing to be involved from Shui Rong's generation. The previous generation of Prince Beijing had already joined the team.

Thinking about it, I'm afraid that the Beijing Palace, like other families, bet on the wrong treasure, and now they can't get out of the car, so they can only walk all the way to the dark side.

This is really interesting.

I'm afraid even the emperor and King Zhongshun didn't expect this to be the reason. King Zhongshun always thought it was a childhood fight, and Shui Rong only came out to go against him.

Neutrality, there is no absolute neutrality in the world, but I have to say that the Beijing Palace's move is really high.

The wiser one should be the Supreme Emperor. There were so many princes, but in the end they chose the humble King Zhongyong to succeed him.

Zhongyong, everyone thought it was moderation, but they didn't expect that the emperor's deep meaning was reuse.
