My uncle's name is Zhu Di

Chapter 155

The separation of Zheng's family can be regarded as tearing off the veil of warmth and tenderness of the aristocratic family, and presenting a very cruel truth in front of everyone.

Zhu Gaosui is not a good guy either. He mobilized scholars from poor backgrounds to write articles frantically, revealing the background of big landlords and wealthy families... Although they also have some family property, they are much better than ordinary people, otherwise they would not be qualified to study and take the imperial examination.

But the problem is not suffering from scarcity but inequality.

We take less than others, and it is almost more infuriating than not taking at all.

After these people's crazy leaks, ordinary people finally know the inside story... Just like the Zheng family, which got Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial brush, it is truly the first family in the south of the Yangtze River.

Obviously, the court wants to give some preferential treatment!

In fact, a considerable number of aristocratic families have so-called family property, which is the land that maintains the operation of the family... The harvest of these lands is usually used for sacrifices, relief for the orphans and poor, raising children in the family, and supporting the elderly.

It sounds good, but the power of this distribution is in the hands of the elders of the clan, and there is no need to say how much selfishness is involved in this distribution.

Also, still talking about the Zheng family, their Zheng family norms have been respected by Zhu Yuanzhang, and there is an ethnology in the family, and they teach their children according to this method.

Undoubtedly, there is also the school field, that is, the field for ethnology.

In addition, what other temple properties, mountains, rivers and lakes...

And this is only from the Zheng family, and there are countless families who have attached land and put the land under Zheng's name.

Some people even changed their surnames and pretended to be members of the Zheng clan in order to obtain the asylum of the Zheng clan.

As a result, this time I heard that the Zheng family offended the emperor, causing a catastrophe, and many demons and ghosts were exploded. Some people clamored to recognize their ancestors and return to their original surnames. It was the Zheng family who harmed them.

Some people clamored that the Zheng family forced the land to be handed over to them, and now they want to redeem the land.

Not only that, but the Zheng family has given so much land rent over the years, it should be returned, or the Zheng family should hand it over to the court. They can't pay the land rent and pay the fine at the same time. Isn't that a cow that has been skinned twice!

All these kinds of dirty things came out.

In the past, this kind of thing was only discussed in Shilin at most, and then it disappeared.

But since Zhu Gaosui has mastered the Dibao, don't try to hide it.

This guy upholds the mentality of doing things even if he has nothing to do, and stirs up the flames everywhere... The group of scholars under him have also learned this, and they have become more serious and vivid.

They even compiled a special book for the Zheng family, called "Hundred Years of Iceberg Records".

It is about a mountain that has been frozen for hundreds of years. From a distance, it is crystal clear and beautiful.

As a result, one day, the ice and snow melted, revealing the filth everywhere...

Because the picture was so beautiful, many people laughed like pigs.

Zhu Di is also one of them. Not only is he happy, but he also sees an opportunity to increase his annual income... If he gets all the family land, school land, and temple land in his hands, how much income will it increase?
I have been working hard to make money for so long, how can I miss such a big piece of fat?
For three days in a row, he had found Xia Yuanji, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, to discuss this matter.

But Lao Xia all shook their heads, expressing that they were helpless.

"Your Majesty, it's not that I'm unwilling to carry it out, but I'm just afraid that after implementing it, the gains will outweigh the losses. Not only will the court not be able to increase its annual revenue, but it will also spend more money. I have to report to Your Majesty."

Zhu Di sounds fresh. If I want to increase my annual income and send people to collect taxes, the result will be more expenses. Is it because the officials are greedy?

"Xia Yuanji, you won't talk nonsense and deceive me, will you?"

Xia Yuanji hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I dare not deceive you... Last year, in order to increase the annual income, the minister and Ding Guogong set up a tax card at Jubao Gate and rectified the treasure notes. The field tax, but He didn't dare to act rashly, I'm afraid Duke Ding knew it well."

Zhu Di frowned, and suddenly smiled and said, "Since you all know, then call him too...by the way, send a team of palace guards to protect him in case of accidents."

Xu Jingchang is still on the assassination list, and this matter has not been found out until now. It is true or false, and may even never be found out. After all, the cost of writing a list casually is too low.

But it is difficult for you to be sure, there is really no one in it.

So Xu Jingchang wrapped himself in a small quilt, thought hard, and came up with a solution.

"Look, this is my result."

Xu Jingchang pointed to the special carriage in front of him, showing off to Zhu Gaosui.

"This is the treasure I researched after imitating an ancient man and painstakingly thinking about it."

Zhu Gaosui took a closer look. From the outside, this carriage was only bigger than ordinary carriages, with more materials, especially the wheels, which were as wide as three normal carriages.

"Which ancient man is this, why haven't I heard of it?"

Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "I haven't heard many of them. Do you remember Su Dongpo's first poem, two of which are called Shooting Tigers by Yourself, Watching Sun Lang?"

Zhu Gaosui nodded, "Of course I have read about it. Compared to Sun Quan, Su Dongpo is also very courageous."

Xu Jingchang couldn't help laughing, "If you say you can't learn, you just can't... Do you know how Sun Quan shot a tiger?"

"How to shoot? Archery on horseback, just like my father. By the way, the boss's skills have also improved recently, and he can even hunt deer. I also saw him cut off the antler and took a bowl of hot deer. Blood...see what it means, I'm going to add a nephew and niece again."

Zhu Gaosui sighed, next time he went to see the boss, he should bring back some deer whips and mend them himself.

"By the way, you haven't said how Sun Quan shot the tiger yet? Tell me quickly."

"Quan'er, I told you at the beginning that the Dama Jindao went out, but the tiger didn't listen to him, the king of Wei and Wu, not only dodged the arrow, but also turned around to kill Sun Shiwan. The guards tried their best to protect him, so Sun Quan survived." Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "If it was you, what would you do next?"

This is also the first time Zhu Gaosui has heard that Sun Zhongmou, a hero, has such a dark history.

"Of course it's about practicing riding and archery hard. Next time, I'll kill a tiger and let others see."

Xu Jingchang shook his head, stretched out his hand and patted the carriage in front of him, and said with a smile: "With that kind of ambition, he's not Sun Shiwan. He got a tiger shooting cart, just like this one. It's well-protected and solid. There are a bunch of People prepare bows and crossbow weapons, and when they meet a tiger, they drive the tiger shooting cart up, greet with swords, guns and sticks, and kill the tiger."

"what!"

Zhu Gaosui immediately shouted, so brother Quan shoots tigers like this?
Do you want to show some face?

It has to be said that from this moment on, Sun Quan's two major traits are undoubtedly revealed, one is insidious, the other is good food and fun... So it is not surprising that he attacked Jingzhou.

It would not be Sun Quan without a sneak attack.

Repeatedly attacking Hefei has become a matter of course.

Without him, personality dictates.

After Zhu Gaosui listened to Xu Jingchang's explanation, he suddenly felt ill.

Shoot the tiger by yourself, watch Sun Lang!
"Oh my God, how much do Laymen Dongpo look down on Sun Quan?" Zhu Gaosui sighed.

Xu Jingchang smiled, "So if Dongfeng doesn't make friends with Zhou Lang, Tongquechun will lock Er Qiao deeply. In terms of real skills, the Great Wei King Wu is really not good at it."

Zhu Gaosui sighed in a low voice: "The child should be like Sun Zhongmou, is this not a compliment?"

Xu Jingchang smiled, "Look at me telling you that having a child should be like Zhu Gaosui, do you like it?"

Zhu Gaosui's eyes widened, and he suddenly yelled strangely, "Xu, you dare to scold me! Just wait, I will give birth to a son, named Zhu Jingchang!"

Facing the threat, Xu Jingchang spread his hands, not afraid, "Don't be delusional, the Emperor Taizu has already stipulated that your son is from the Zhanzi generation, how can you change the ancestral system?"

Zhu Gaosui raised his head to the sky and sighed, his ancestors did harm to others!
But he quickly sneered triumphantly, "Did you think I didn't recruit? Let me tell you, I'm not afraid. I'll raise a dog later, and I'll call it Jingchang!"

"Really?" Xu Jingchang was still indifferent, but suddenly he turned his head and shouted into the room, "Zhu Gaosui!"

At this moment, a starling flew out and landed on Xu Jingchang's shoulder.

What's more amazing is that this starling also agreed, "Here!"

Immediately, Zhu Gaosui was in a bad mood.

"What do you call it?"

Xu Jingchang smiled and turned his head, "Say, what's your name?"

"Zhu Gaosui!"

The starling agreed clearly, and made it very clear.

Zhu Gaosui was so angry that he gritted his teeth, wishing he could strangle Xu Jingchang to death. This guy was hiding at home, except for watching the fun, he was training the starling to speak.

"You wait, the two of us are endless! If we don't avenge this revenge, we will not live together!"

Just when the two of them were enjoying themselves, someone came from the palace and announced Xu Jingchang to enter the palace.

This time there was no problem, Xu Jingchang also put on the unicorn suit, and then boarded his special tiger shooting car.

The inside of the car is lined with an iron plate, and there is a layer of hardwood on the outside of the iron plate. Inside the hardwood, there are three layers of rawhide.

That's not all, the bottom of the car is protected by double iron plates, and it's completely eight layers of cowhide, layered on top of each other.

Let's just put it this way, ordinary bows and arrows can only scratch an itch, not even the skin.

Take gunpowder and throw it, probably nothing will happen.

The only thing that can break through the defense is probably the astonishingly powerful eight-ox crossbow... But this kind of thing is not equipped by the Ming army, it is too expensive, where can I get it now?
So, from a certain point of view, Xu Jingchang tinkered with the Ming version of the tank.

In order to save his life, he also went all out.

"By the way, His Royal Highness Zhao Wang." Xu Jingchang poked his head out of the carriage, and said with a smile: "I am not the only one on the assassination list. If you spread the word, if anyone needs to be protected, please tell me, and I will batch them up." Production of tiger shooting cars. It is not expensive at all, only 3000 taels of silver."

Zhu Gaosui snorted coldly: "I won't help you make money, don't think about it!"

"How about this, I will give you the agency right, if you sell a car, I will give you 150 taels!"

"My dear brother, I've done it! Don't give it to others!" Zhu Gaosui's face-changing was so fast that it would make the masters of Sichuan opera feel ashamed... Xu Jingchang didn't bother to talk nonsense, he went straight to the palace.

Zhu Gaosui looked at his back and laughed, "You idiot, Xu Jingchang, you are a big idiot! This kind of tiger shooting chariot should be used in the army. I will sell it to the emperor later, and wait for the money! "
