Daming: I, the emperor who trains the carpenter

Chapter 515 Zhou Wang: I am wronged!

Many vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty have long been tossed about by Zhang Haogu.

In the past, they were high-ranking feudal lords, but ever since Zhang Haogu took care of King Fu, the vassal kings of Ming Dynasty have become different.

Although many people still retain the title of vassal king, the land under their names is getting less and less.

On the one hand, after more than 200 years of inheritance, the old Zhu family has more and more people. Those who are rich will naturally become richer, and those who have no money will naturally be poor.

After Zhu Youxiao gave an order, he made a decision that violated his ancestors.

Let Daming's clan be completely untied.

Do whatever you like, you can even take the imperial examination.

Regarding feudal princes, with so much land in your hands, it would be good if the imperial court didn't ask you for money, and you still count on the imperial court to support you?
It's just a dream!
The vassal king must submit to the court.

After a series of combined punches, the feudal lords are also tired, and obediently obeying the imperial court's decree, isn't it just paying taxes?

交！
Just pay at [-]%.

From this, Zhu Youxiao realized the new realm of being an emperor, being a foolish emperor for a while, and always being a foolish emperor.

The financial expenses of the imperial court are gone, and now, the vassal king has to serve the imperial court. Is there anything more enjoyable than this?
If you can go against your ancestors in exchange for money, then you will always go against your ancestors' decision, that's good!

However, this created a problem. Although the vassal kings paid [-]% of the tax, it was obviously contrary to the national policy of the imperial court.

[-]%, and the vassals still have [-]%.

No matter how much land they have, it will be collected at a tax of [-]%.

Naturally, this is in violation of the tax policy of the imperial court. If the vassals continue to annex the land and still only charge [-]% of the tax, they still have room for annexation, and it is very large.

Now, the gentry are taking advantage of a loophole.

The most ruthless thing is that you can collect 90.00% of your tax. Then, we will make a transaction and trade the land to the king of Zhou. This land is in the middle of the transaction, and it is nominally the land of the king of Zhou. Actually own.

You can't spread it directly on the prince's head, can you?
Zhou Jinyong read the scribe's report, and couldn't help showing a smile on his face: "These gentry can really bring you a little surprise from time to time!"

Zhou Jinyong can basically assert that the king of Zhou would never have the guts to go against the court's laws.

A King Fu and a King Lu were all cleaned up. King Zhou just watched how these two hapless bastards were cleaned up. Now, even if you give him a hundred guts, he will not have the guts to fight against the court. Go against it.

Moreover, at the beginning, Zhang Haogu also directly pushed Zhou Wang Zhu Gongyun out, and asked him to take the lead in turning against other vassal kings. Now Zhu Gongyou has to be a man with his tail between his legs?

The greatest possibility is that someone under Zhou Wang's subordinates did this behind Zhou Wang's back.

Zhou Jinyong also quickly made a decision to visit Zhou Wang Zhu Gongyang in person.

Master is following Zhang Haogu, King Zhou, do you really have the guts to confront Zhang Haogu?

……

……

Zhou Wangfu

"Injustice, I am really wronged!"

Zhu Gongyun looked at Zhou Jinyong with a mournful face: "Zhou Butang, you can investigate, once you investigate it to the end, this king will never tolerate it, this is to harm this king, this is to place this king in an unjust place, this king , how can this king allow him to wish!"

In the past, how was the prince of Ming Dynasty treated?
The Grand Master of the Cabinet is here, you have to get off your horse and walk.

From now on, since Zhang Haogu bombarded Prince Fu's mansion, captured King Lu, and abolished the three kings of Shandong.

Prince?Dogs are not kissed~
As a mere prince, you don't dare to offend the clerks of the prince's mansion. They are just looking at how much property you have, and they want to search your palace.

The life of the prince is not as good as before!

Zhou Jinyong smiled and said: "King Zhou, I naturally believe that King Zhou is loyal to the country. This is, King Zhou. If this reaches the ears of the emperor, I am afraid it will still be detrimental to King Zhou. Some treacherous villain jumped out and said that the king of Zhou violated the government's national policy and wanted to deal with the king of Zhou, so what should we do?"

Speaking of this, Zhou Jinyong still said very caringly: "The current situation in the country is difficult, everyone is asking for money, King Zhou, you should be more considerate and considerate of the emperor, the emperor is not easy, you have to give consideration to the court, you have to give Considering the country and society of the Ming Dynasty, hey, there are many villains in this court!"

"Damn it, isn't the treacherous villain in the court just Zhang Haogu? Isn't it just you bastards? If you don't come, what day am I? If you come, I'm going to start offering to the court." Zhu Gongyun couldn't help shouting and cursing in his heart.

However, Zhu Gongyun really didn't dare to say these words, he could only say submissively: "What you say makes sense, what you say makes sense, Zhou Butang, you want to save me!"

"nature!"

Zhou Jinyong felt that this king of Zhou should not be too talkative, and sure enough, he was the one who was tortured by Zhang Haogu.

At the moment, Zhou Jinyong said: "Didn't these gentry sell the land to the King of Zhou in name? Simply, the King of Zhou doesn't have to be polite, he will take all the land according to the order, and the King of Zhou will take as much as he wants, don't want it for nothing!"

Zhu Gongyun couldn't help but widen his eyes, and then he quickly said: "This king understands, take all these lands, and then give them to the court!"

"That's right, the king of Zhou can go to the imperial court and say that he sighed all night, deeply aware of the difficult situation in the country, and seeing the refugees in Henan everywhere, he couldn't bear it, and was willing to donate all the land under the name of the king's mansion of Zhou. Give it to the imperial court to support the imperial court's new policy!"

Speaking of this, Zhou Jinyong continued: "In this way, can the court still say that King Zhou is not a loyal man? Who can say that you, King Zhou, do not support the court's new policies?"

"Wait a minute!"

Zhu Gongyun pondered for a moment, and then slowly said: "All the land under the name of Prince Zhou's Mansion will be donated?"

Zhou Jinyong nodded: "Yes!"

"Not only was it given to me by the gentry, but also the original land of our Zhou Palace!"

Zhou Jinyong nodded again: "Yes!"

Zhu Gong was furious, my good fellow, at first I thought you bastard was only thinking about the land of the gentry in Henan, but I never thought that you bastard was also thinking about the land of Prince Zhou's mansion.

It was hard for me to annex acre by acre.

Looking at Zhou Jinyong, Zhu Gongyun really wanted to punch him directly.

You bastard, you are fucking trying to drive our Zhou Wang family to a dead end.

And Zhou Jinyong still had a smile on his face from beginning to end: "King Zhou, what do you think?"

Zhu Gongyun cried with a mournful face: "Zhou Butang, you can give Xiao Wang a way out!"
