I Am the Grandson of the Second Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Earning 100 Million Taels at the Beginn

Chapter 93 Old Zhu's Pig Raising Policy. (five more)

Although he was so angry that he cursed in his heart, Zhu Quan still kept a graceful smile on his face.

"Yeah, I just didn't like Jianwen back then, and I admired your grandfather's demeanor, so I did my best to help. Thinking about it today, I realize how correct my actions were."

"Hahaha…"

Hearing Zhu Quan's words, Zhu Di was delighted.

Zhu Zhangui secretly rolled his eyes.

Do you believe what you say?

"Grandson Zhu Zhangui, meet Grandpa Seventeen!"

Although he was slandered in his heart, Zhu Zhangui still bowed respectfully.

"Okay, okay! Get up quickly, get up quickly, you are such a good boy."

After Zhu Quan helped Zhu Zhangui up with a smile, he stood aside with a smile and stopped talking!

Seeing this, Zhu Di raised his eyebrows.

This old boy is too stingy.

After all, this is your first time meeting my grandson?Today is my grandson's big wedding again, and the children have all met at worship, but you don't even pay for anything.

Glancing at a piece of quaint precious jade hanging on King Ning's waist, Zhu Di's eyes lit up.

"Cough cough!"

Zhu Di coughed lightly, and said to Zhu Zhangui, "I still don't thank your Seventeenth Grandpa for the reward. This is a jade pendant from your great-grandfather, and it is a high-quality gem!"

Zhu Quan: When am I going to give Baoyu to this kid?How come I don't know about this?
Zhu Zhangui naturally understood what the old man meant, plopped, and knelt down again.

"Thank you Grandpa Seventeen for the reward!"

Then he looked at the jade pendant on Zhu Quan's waist.

Following Zhu Zhangui's gaze, Zhu Quan looked down at the jade pendant on his waist, and then at Zhu Di who was smiling at him.

His face darkened, and he stretched out his hand to pull off the jade pendant.

Then, reluctantly handed it to Zhu Zhangui.

"This jade pendant was given to me by your great-grandfather, and it is also my only thought, but it is my heart, you must keep it well!"

Zhu Quan said so, but he didn't let go of his hand at all.

Zhu Zhangui grabbed the other end of the jade pendant and pulled it back vigorously.

"Don't worry, Grandpa Seventeen, I will protect this jade pendant like my life."

Grabbing the jade pendant and tugging it back, Zhu Quan smiled and said:
"Really? Then I'm relieved."

Seeing that the old guy was holding on tightly and not letting go, Zhu Zhangui squinted at the old man and the old man, seeing their eyes wandering to one side, he stretched out his hand and forcefully opened Zhu Quan's hand.

Then, under Zhu Quan's eyes that were about to breathe fire, he hung the jade pendant around his waist.

"Okay, brat, you still have to be busy today, don't stay here with me, go get busy!"

Seeing that his grandson took the things, Zhu Di stretched out his hand and waved it, telling Zhu Zhangui to leave quickly.

Zhu Quan watched his baby off like this, leaving him bit by bit.

"How about it?"

The father and son walked out of Zhu Di's bedroom. On the way back, Zhu Pangpang asked with a smile.

Zhu Zhangui played with the jade pendant on his waist, and looked back at the old man's bedroom.

"This old man is very thoughtful. When I mentioned that I lent soldiers to my grandfather for free, there was a hint of resentment in his eyes, which was also mixed with dissatisfaction. Obviously, he is dissatisfied with Grandpa!"

Fatty Zhu nodded with a smile.

"It must be dissatisfied."

"When your grandfather borrowed soldiers back then, he promised to share the world with him and rule the world together."

"In the end, when your grandfather took the throne, he didn't even mention it. He didn't even give him the fiefs he wanted, so he was driven to Nanchang, and his military power and the right to manage the place were confiscated. Something unexpected happened."

Zhu Zhangui couldn't help laughing.

"The promise was made by King Yan back then, but it has nothing to do with the current emperor. Who told him not to come to ask for it when his grandfather was King Yan?"

"Ha ha…"

Hearing Zhu Zhangui's words, Zhu Pangpang couldn't help laughing.

"But then again, your grandfather intends to move the capital to Beiping. When the time comes, the sky will be high and the emperor will be far away. This person will be difficult to manage. I'm afraid there will be troubles in the future."

Zhu Zhangui nodded slightly.

Later, Zhu Quan's great-great-grandson rebelled because the sky was high and the emperor was far away, so the imperial power could not be suppressed.

It's just that what makes people speechless is that the rebellion of King Ning was suppressed by the governor Wang Shouren before it caused a storm.

Let Emperor Zhengde Zhu Houzhao, who had always wanted to conquest himself, have no chance to make a move.

Even Zhu Zhangui heard that at that time, Zhu Houzhao was thinking of putting Zhu Quan's great-great-grandson back and fighting again.

Thinking of Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Zhangui felt dizzy.

The emperors of Zhu Zhanji's branch are all strange, some like carpenters, some like wild animals, some like alchemy and immortality, and some like to be several rounds older.

This Nima is more weird than the other.

In the future, my descendants and grandchildren will not be able to do this.

When the time comes when he is about to die, he must establish a rule that the royal children are not allowed to engage in amateur careers.

Not noticing that Zhu Zhangui was distracted, Zhu Pangpang continued: "It's a pity that this person can't move. If we want to move, I'm afraid it will make the kings of the world feel uneasy."

After hearing this, Zhu Zhangui wondered: "In this case, why not implement the Tweet Order like the Han Dynasty, and disintegrate the power of the vassal king little by little."

Zhu Pangpang shook his head slightly.

"Someone mentioned this idea at the beginning, but it was rejected by your grandfather."

"My Ming Dynasty treats vassals differently than previous dynasties."

"In the past, the vassal kings held military power and local management rights. It was a country like China. The imperial court's order to push favors actually weakened their power bit by bit, making them unable to threaten the central court."

"But the vassals of our Ming Dynasty, they have no power and fiefdom, and the guards are pitiful, and the whole family is supported by the court."

"In addition, the imperial court has a system. The imperial court only raises those direct descendants of the emperor, and those collateral descendants, or those who are a few generations later, have to rely on their own efforts."

"Under the current situation, the court only needs to support those who inherit the throne, but if the Tweet Order is implemented, the court will face tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of royal relatives in the future."

"In that situation, not to mention fighting to govern the country to relieve disasters and save the people, just supporting these royal relatives can completely wipe out the Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Zhangui was stunned, and then he remembered that apart from the few vassal kings who founded the country, other princes in the Ming Dynasty had no rights.

Most of them are mixed food and wait to die as pigs.

If such a feudal lord implements a favor order, isn't that causing trouble for the court?
However, Zhu Zhangui frowned again immediately.

Although the vassal king of Ming Dynasty had no real power, Zhu Yuanzhang made a policy of not collecting taxes for the royal family.

This royal family is not only the royal family of the vassal king, but also includes their collateral descendants.

These princes are fine, but they are trying their best to create children.

A family of more than a dozen children is small in number, and some even have hundreds of children.

Thinking about the dispersal from generation to generation, Zhu Zhangui couldn't help but shudder.

At the same time, he also remembered that the reason why the tax revenue decreased after the Ming Dynasty was that apart from the literati taking advantage of loopholes to evade taxes, these piggies also contributed a lot of credit.

This old Zhu is really talking loudly and disregarding the feelings of future generations.

It is understandable that you want to let future generations no longer starve and be bullied.

But why don't you think about the future emperors, what a feeling it is to face this group of huge piggies!
