Ming Dynasty: At the beginning of the game, Lao Zhu resigned and retired.

Chapter 660 Who made you the emperor?
Chapter 660: Who made you the emperor?
Zhu Biao certainly didn't want his descendants to be kings of a fallen country, but would Zhu Yuanzhang be happy with that?

But before, he had never taken the treatment of vassal kings and royal family members seriously.

In fact, in his opinion, this is all good governance.

Compared with other emperors, the treatment I give to my son is nothing, right?
Then, Zhu Yuanzhang was confronted by Zhu Biao.

It was the first time that Zhu Biao had criticized him in person.

But... as Zhu Yuanzhang concentrated on calculating the numbers Zhu Biao said one by one, he couldn't stop the cold sweat on his forehead.

The treatment of all royal family members was originally decided by Zhu Yuanzhang himself, so he naturally knew it.

That's why, looking at the huge population figures, and then adding up the various benefits he had set, and finally simply adding them up...

Zhu Yuanzhang felt so cold in his heart!
Even though Zhu Biao is doing a good job as regent with the assistance of the cabinet.

But in fact, the real emperor was Zhu Yuanzhang.

It is precisely because of this that he has a complete account of the overall situation in the Ming Dynasty without even having to read the memorials.

He knew it just by looking at the number.

This already accounts for more than half of the Ming Dynasty’s annual fiscal revenue.

What a horrible situation this is?

Use the annual income of the Ming Dynasty to support the Zhu family?
What about officials' salaries, disaster relief in various places, water conservancy construction, and military equipment?

Which of these does not require money to be taken from the national treasury?
As a result, you and your family have brought disaster to the rest of the world, causing them to be unable to eat?
What else is there to say?

Rebel!
Didn't Zhu Yuanzhang just couldn't survive back then, so he just rebelled against his mother?
Zhu Yuanzhang was able to rise up and rebel, so does that mean that others who can’t survive have to wait for death?
That doesn't make sense.

to be honest!
It's just that simple.

Just want to survive!

Having calculated to this point, Zhu Yuanzhang could no longer calculate.

He looked at Zhu Biao with a dejected expression and asked in a low voice.

"Biao'er, what do you think we should do?"

"You can't let your brothers go hungry, right?"

Zhu Biao looked at his father speechlessly.

"Dad, what are you thinking about?"

"Why did they have no food to eat?"

"I only have two ideas!"

"First, the treatment of the royal family must be reduced, and the number of royal family members must also be increased."

"Otherwise, neither the royal family nor the Ming Dynasty can bear such a heavy burden!"

"Secondly, the military power of the princes must be taken back, and they cannot be allowed to do whatever they want in their fiefdoms in the future."

Zhu Yuanzhang stood up suddenly.

"So after all, you still don't trust your brothers?"

"We give them military power so that they can help you, our big brother!"

"So you don't trust them so much?"

Zhu Biao had known before that his father was a stubborn person.

But what he didn't expect was that his father could be so stubborn.

But he still controlled his temper and explained quickly.

"Father, why don't you trust them?"

"I want to set the rules from the very beginning!"

"You are the founding emperor. If you don't set the rules, it will be very troublesome for later generations to change them."

"My uncle has said many times before that if rules are broken from the root, there will be too many problems!"

Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang was still listening to Zhu Biao's explanation.

As a result, when Zhu Yuanzhang mentioned the name of Master Hu, he immediately became unhappy.

Even more irritable than before.

He stood up and walked back and forth in the Kunning Palace several times before he shouted loudly.

"You keep calling me uncle, but do you know that Hu Weiyong is our subject?" "Also, your Crown Princess is only his niece, not his biological daughter!"

"Now you don't even listen to our biological father, but obey his every word instead?"

"What are you doing?"

Zhu Biao was really annoyed at this moment.

He felt that there was no way to chat with Old Deng anymore.

You talk to him about numbers, and he talks to you about policies;
You talk to him about state affairs, and he talks to you about family and friendship;
You talk to him about crisis, he talks to you about hierarchy...

It can be said that the father and son have never been chatting in the same channel from beginning to end.

In this situation, it would be strange if the two of them could talk it out.

Zhu Biao is tired.

Tired of heart!

He was so lazy that he didn't even bother to say a word. After bowing to his mother, he turned around and left Kunning Palace.

In fact, he didn't even look at Zhu Yuanzhang during the whole process.

Ok!

Zhu Yuanzhang had a explosive temper to begin with. Now, seeing his most filial and most valued son being so perfunctory and ignoring him, he realized that the son was so obscure.

That's not even getting more irritable.

He immediately yelled, "Zhu Biao, do you think I'm dead?"

Zhu Biao paused for a moment when he heard this, but then he continued walking forward.

Then he walked out of Kunning Palace without stopping.

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang and his son Zhu Biao had many quarrels.

Sometimes, there have been more than one or two times when people have had a big fight in front of each other.

But this was the first time that Zhu Biao left so quietly.

When it came to this point, Zhu Yuanzhang completely exploded.

He simply picked up a tea bowl at hand and smashed it to the ground, then started cursing.

"Rebel!"

"Bastard!"

"Lawless!"

It can be said that this was the first time that Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry, and also the first time that he exploded so explosively.

He really didn't expect that Zhu Biao would leave after he couldn't continue talking to him.

He actually realized just now that he seemed to have made a mistake.

But can't you just talk to us nicely?

Can't you just give us some advice?
Besides, haven’t you been very nice to your brothers and sisters in the past?
Why are we going to attack them?
If you can target your brothers and sisters today, then can you target your father like me after some time?
After all, that’s what Li Shimin did!
When Zhu Yuanzhang thought of the terrible incident at Xuanwu Gate, he immediately felt cold all over.

This is so terrible.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt as if he had suffered great injustice at this moment. He turned his head to look at Empress Ma, who had not spoken a word from beginning to end, and spoke loudly as if complaining.

"Sister, this brat Zhu Biao is really becoming more and more ignorant!"

"Girl, what do you think we should do?"

Queen Ma had a strange expression on her face. She sat there in a daze, as if she was in a trance or daydreaming.

After hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said, she turned her head to look at Zhu Yuanzhang, and suddenly said something shocking.

"What do you mean?"

"I'm just his mother, and he's just my son."

"No matter what he is like now, isn't it all because of you who taught him?"

"As for him making you unhappy, you can depose him from the position of Crown Prince or kill him, it's up to you!"

"Who made you the emperor?"
