Daming: You are really my eldest son

Chapter 130 Old man, did you have a stroke?

Zhu Xiongying's birth seemed to be the beginning of many happy events in Ming Dynasty.

The morning court on Bingshen Day was full of joy. The moment he led the prince Zhu Biao up the imperial steps, the courtiers knelt down on the ground spontaneously and expressed their most sincere congratulations to the emperor who had a grandson.

The thunderous voice of Shan Hu made Zhu Yuanzhang laugh hard, and the joy from the heart was that even the advising doctor who supervised the emperor's words and deeds could not bear to interrupt.

"Today we are happy, so we will make an exception. Those who participated in the court today will each be given five taels of silver. In addition, to celebrate the birth of our grandson, the whole world should celebrate, and the Ministry of Punishment will pardon all states and counties for punishments of less than one hundred rods..."

In a word, being happy means having fun with the people.

I have to admit that this is the first time Zhu Yuanzhang has been so generous since the founding of the country.Even in the minds of many courtiers, these arrangements made by Zhu Yuanzhang today are more generous than those made by Hongwu three years ago.

Five taels of silver doesn't seem like much.However, if the silver from the Internal Shipping Department is exchanged for copper coins, Song Qian Huang can be exchanged for eight or nine guan, and red money can be exchanged for more than ten guan.If it is used to buy food, the purchasing power is equivalent to a month's salary of a fifth-rank official.

In an era when there is no year-end bonus, such rewards are not unreasonable.

But the good news obviously doesn't stop there.

While the courtiers were thanking each other in every possible way, the envoy who was in charge of maintaining the order of the officials in the early court suddenly hurried into the Fengtian Hall, swallowed a mouthful of saliva to moisten his dry throat from trotting all the way, and his voice was full of joy:

"Reporting to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Yong said that there is good news from Dongying, and he is waiting for an order outside the Meridian Gate at this moment."

Speaking of King Yong, the atmosphere in Fengtian Hall, which was originally beaming, suddenly became a little weird.

It is one thing to be worried about Zhu Ji's arrogance, but most people here are more looking forward to what kind of attitude this mighty King Yong will face them today.

In their thinking, if His Royal Highness King Yong is smart enough and aware of current affairs, Zhu Ji must learn to behave with his tail tucked under the premise of almost completely losing the possibility of seizing the crown.

At this time, Chen Ning has already set his sights on his ally who seems to be in harmony with the outside world - Hu Weiyong, the right prime minister who has always been considered by some people to be revenged.

He didn't believe that Hu Weiyong wouldn't find an opportunity to trip Zhu Ji when the situation was so clear.

Unaware that Zhu Yuanzhang, who had different thoughts in the court hall, heard that it was a letter from Dongying, and even asked his lazy eldest son to go there in person, and the smile on his face that could not hold back became brighter and brighter.

"Xuan."

With a big wave of his hand, he signaled the introduction envoy to bring people in.

Watching the figure of the introduction envoy hurried towards the Meridian Gate, Zhu Yuanzhang said more and more comfortably:

"Dongying's letter this time, presumably Liao Yongzhong and Wu Zhen have completely controlled Dongying. But this is what was expected. Since King Yong came to report in person, it should be Shi Jian Yinshan who made a noise. Your family What do you think?"

As long as the money is given, the boss can do whatever the boss says.

What's more, it is still related to silver itself.

Zhu Yuanzhang's guess made the courtiers praise again. Zhu Yuanzhang, who was gradually lost in the praise of his wisdom and martial arts, saw his eldest son getting closer and closer, and his raised mouth seriously affected the symmetry of his big round face.

As a result, the first time he stepped into Fengtian Hall, Zhu Ji couldn't help crying out:

"Father, did you have a stroke? Why is your mouth crooked like this?

Why don't you see the imperial physician first, it's my business, don't worry. "

Zhu Ji's unabashed description of a goddamn stroke strongly challenged the professionalism of the courtiers.

Although it was extremely hard to persevere, everyone in Fengtian Temple did not dare to express their true feelings.

Wow, so funny.

If this is a person who can't hold back his laughter, let alone the end of his official career, maybe his hard-working life will come to an end.

Being so squeezed by his own son, the corners of Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth began to twitch irregularly.Fortunately, Zhu Yuanzhang still maintained his final rationality, knowing that this was not a real stroke, but he was pissed off by this bastard.

"If you have something to say, if you have nothing to do, go away."

Spitting out these nine characters furiously, Zhu Yuanzhang showed the city and patience that a qualified emperor should have.

In fact, if it wasn't for the fear of losing the emperor's face if he couldn't catch up with Zhu Ji in front of so many people, Zhu Yuanzhang really wanted to tickle the bamboo that Zhu Ji personally gave him, so that Zhu Ji could understand what Chinese fatherly love is.

Meeting Zhu Yuanzhang's burning eyes, Zhu Ji grinned, and then bowed solemnly:
"Father, Liao Yongzhong, Marquis of Deqing, has come to report that the entire territory of Dongying is under control. Marquis of Jinghai and Wu Zhen started to wipe out the rogues in the surrounding waters ten days ago, and are expected to return to the capital a few years ago.

In addition, the 8 taels of silver initially mined and smelted by Iwami Yinshan has been delivered by Sai Shiyouwei and is expected to arrive in five days.

According to the report, the output of Iwami Silver Mountain is now restricted by the Mitus, and if the government intends to expand silver production, the monthly shipments of Mitus can increase by [-]% to [-]%. "

It didn't take long, and after more than a month of initial mining and smelting, 8 taels of silver were delivered. This amount made Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes pop out.

The courtiers who looked like him were waiting to see Zhu Ji humbly.

The annual income is one million taels of silver, and even if there is intention to increase production, this figure can be increased by [-]% to [-]%.For the Ming court, whose output of copper coins was seriously insufficient, it was like rain after a long drought.

"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Jinghai and the Marquis of Deqing have done a great job for us in opening up the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and they should be greatly rewarded."

Just as Zhu Ji finished speaking, under Hu Weiyong's veiled eyes, Chen Ning was willing to stand out again.

To this day, no one in this court knows that it was Zhu Ji's idea to capture Dongying and seize the silver mines.

Asking for credit for Wu Zhen and Liao Yongzhong, but Zhu Ji was the only one left behind. Chen Ning did not have the slightest fear of Zhu Ji, a great hero.

He knew very well that this was not what he meant alone.

Wu Zhen and Liao Yongzhong are ministers, and it must be credit for doing this.And Zhu Ji is the clan, the emperor, and it is Zhu Ji's duty to seek the well-being of Ming Dynasty.

Do you still have to give credit for doing what you should do?If Chen Ning is also from a later life, then he will definitely think of more reasons, such as - you think you are a big star, and you have to go to the hospital for treatment if you break your skin while filming?
However, Chen Ning obviously judges the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

Just when he was about to see Zhu Ji's complicated complexion like many others, Zhu Ji nodded to Zhu Yuanzhang very calmly.

"Chen Yushi is right. It would be a little unreasonable not to reward the merits of destroying the country. When I came here, I also discussed with the military heroes at the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and I have a proposal. I want to ask Father to nod. "
