Zhu Yuanzhang can see my dreams

Chapter 133 133 What kind of idiot are you to take advantage of us?

After Zhu Yuanzhang finished dressing up and washed away the cold sweat all over his body, he had dinner with Zhu Biao.

"Dad, why is the time so short this time?"

Zhu Yuanzhang told his eldest son what he saw and heard in the fairyland.

Zhu Biao was stunned.

He never expected that the iron bird would fly in the sky.

Wang Buli can jump down from the belly of the iron bird and fly in the sky.

What kind of gameplay is this.

It’s too desperate.

"In the blink of an eye, he fell from a height of 10,000 feet to the ground. I saw that Wang Buli's face was quite happy. Maybe this is something that cannot be experienced in the human world."

Zhu Biao agreed with his father's words. How could he fall from a height of tens of thousands of feet without an immortal weapon like the iron bird?

Not to mention that Wang Buli fell from that height and was unharmed.

"Dad, this inn was abolished, could it be because future generations built too many and couldn't make ends meet?"

After Zhu Biao finished sighing, he brought the topic back to the future of Ming Dynasty.

If Wang Buli can continue to fall from the iron bird next time, he may have a chance to experience it again.

This is much better than simply looking at him.

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted: "Biao'er, don't make excuses for those officials because they don't follow the rules we set.

The person in charge of the post office relied on his privileges to flood the post office with Dosofuma, and even used clever names to blackmail him.

We never imagined that they would extort money from these postmen, so damn shameless!

The dignitaries even ignored my Ming Dynasty laws and used the inn arbitrarily.

The most important thing is that the emperor is not clear-headed. This is what disappoints us the most.

For hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, he poked his own eyes and deafened his ears. How stupid is he! "

As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that rice spewed out of his mouth.

He immediately put the bowl on the table, and the more he thought about it, the less he could eat.

"madness."

I wish he would be cornered and hang himself.

How could the Ming Dynasty not collapse quickly if it was in power like this?

Although the post station set up by Zhu Yuanzhang would take care of the food, drink and sleep of officials at all levels, he had to pay for it at his own expense and the court would not pay for it.

Because the local government of Ming Dynasty does not have office funds and must deal with it on its own.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not know how to set up any office funds. He was afraid that the officials below would find no room for corruption, so why would he give them funds?

Wang Buli's request for funds from him was simply a precedent for the Ming Dynasty.

If Wang Buli hadn't solved the problem of state-run brothels not making money for Zhu Yuanzhang, you would have given up on us.

Money has always been paid from the bottom up. If Zhu Yuanzhang distributed money from the top down, it would also be officials' salaries and soldiers' rewards.

Zhu Yuanzhang stipulated that if officials in the past use the inn, it must be for official business and they must present a Kanhe (letter of introduction). Otherwise, they are not allowed to use it casually.

Of course Zhu Biao knew that future generations would find silver mines. Even though the imperial court now only collects tens of thousands of taels of silver from taxes every year, hundreds of thousands of taels sounds like a lot.

But he knew that by the end of the dynasty, these hundreds of thousands of taels of silver would be like a drop of water thrown into the sea, and they might not be able to be collected into the treasury.

The emperor wanted to use this money to reward the soldiers who fought bravely, but he might not be able to distribute it to the soldiers in full.

In the last years of the dynasty, how could it be possible not to drink the blood of soldiers?

"Dad, I'm afraid that Emperor Chongzhen has no ability and was pushed forward."

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang thought of Zhu Biao's son again, who was overthrown by his son Zhu Di, but the world still belongs to the Zhu family!

That's why Zhu Yuanzhang was a little angry, why didn't he see the Qinwang soldiers and the hereditary noble disciples come to protect the emperor.

Zhu Yuanzhang guessed that because all the post stations had been abolished, the local people did not know what happened in the capital.

The emperor's orders could not reach the capital, so where would King Qin come from to protect him?

"Your motherfucker."

Listening to Zhu Biao's explanation for future generations, Chongzhen, Zhu Yuanzhang still couldn't help but scold his mother.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that the subjugated emperor was a waste, probably because he had not seen a Ming emperor who was more miserable than Chongzhen.

The father and son continued to study the affairs of the Daming Station, which was a key link after they abolished the prime minister system.

The father and son in the palace were busy discussing things.

The three fathers and sons of the Wang family were also discussing at this time. They would first entertain one or two of the neighbors with whom they had good relations, especially those who took the initiative to borrow tables and chairs that day. If Wang Buli got married, they would inevitably need help.

So the father and son, escorted by two veterans, took to the street to purchase.

Hu Weiyong has entered the prime minister's rule. After all, so many officials were beaten by the emperor today and thrown out of the palace, so that they could go home confidently.

Regardless of the emperor, he, the head of a hundred officials, still had to come forward to help the emperor "wipe his butt" and win people's hearts for himself.

After he returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion to rest, the guard Liu Yuxian, who was taken as a confidant by Mao Xiang, sent the collected information to him.

Hu Weiyong felt strange as he looked at the incidents targeting Wang Buli one after another.

The first is that the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly wanted a portrait to find someone.

How did he know Wang Buli and what channel did he use?

Hu Weiyong couldn't understand this, but he knew that he sent people to keep an eye on Wang Buli to examine whether he could become his son-in-law.

Chen Ning, the censor doctor, looked at the dense messages on the paper:

"Xiang Hu, this Wang Buli is a smart man. I hope your majesty will take him so seriously."

Today's emperor giving large-scale rewards to his courtiers is no small matter.

"Look, this ice cream and this Xiaoyao Pill, two of Ye Qinhuai's most popular items are both made by him.

I have never tasted this ice cream, and now the Ye Qinhuai Ice and Fire Two Heavens item has been increased to thirty times. "

Hu Weiyong glanced at Chen Ning and really didn't expect that he would secretly go to a place like that.

As the Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty, Hu Weiyong only dared to order takeout and never dared to go to the venue for fear of being discovered by His Majesty's inspection.

It can be said that the close servants in his house are all people whom he trusts, people in the same village or relatively close to him.

Hu Weiyong achieved enlightenment by himself, and chickens and dogs ascending to heaven are not something he just talks about casually.

"You rarely go to that kind of place."

Hu Weiyong reminded Chen Ning, who doesn't know that it is His Majesty's place, and it is full of his spies.

The length of time you spent in the room with the girls can be recorded and reported to the emperor.

Ye Qinhuai only claims to be a businessman of Cao Guogong's family, whoever believes him will be stupid!

"Wang Buli has an exquisite heart with seven orifices."

Chen Ning immediately changed the topic.

"His excuse was brought back from the Song Dynasty. We have heard the saying about ice cream in the Yuan Dynasty. It must have been lost due to the war, and he restored it."

Hu Weiyong touched his short beard and took a few steps:

“But it’s not wrong to say that this boy has an exquisite heart with seven orifices.

We are just confused, why would Your Majesty make such great efforts to send people to find him?

And you were very angry before you found it, but you stopped doing anything after you found it. Don't you think it's strange? "

"strangeness?"

Chen Ning nodded, feeling really strange.

If someone recommends Wang Buli to the emperor, he should know where he is.

If the school is launched to look for him, the person who recommended him must not know where he is.

Apart from this, everything else can be explained by common sense.

Hu Weiyong shook his head: "But then again, who knows if this was something our Majesty specially released to disrupt his judgment."

Hu Weiyong had some understanding of Zhu Yuanzhang's thinking.

He also didn't trust the inspectors under his opponents very much.

Among them, Yang Xian's death became a common target for everyone. Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong both made great efforts. The most important thing was Liu Ji, who was also from Zhejiang Group, stabbed him in the back. He also wrote to Yang Xian about various private matters.

Hu Weiyong once said to Li Shanchang that if Yang Xian is the prime minister, we Huai people will not be able to become high officials.

None of these civil servants from different factions wanted Zhu Yuanzhang to turn Ming Dynasty into a country controlled by spies.

So when it comes to killing Yang Xian, they put aside their past grudges and prejudices and kill him together.

Yang Xian's crime did not lead to death. What really put Yang Xian to death was not the laws of the Ming Dynasty, but the collective interests of the Ming Dynasty bureaucrats.

Whether it is Li Shanchang, Hu Weiyong and others in Huaixi, or Liu Ji and others in eastern Zhejiang, they are not willing to see Yang Xian occupy a prominent position.

Zhu Yuanzhang would not let his relationship with the heroes reach a deadlock early because of a small review of Yang Xian, especially when Yang Xian's actions made him extremely disappointed.

Chen Ning also thought about Yang Xian, squinted his eyes and said:

"Xiang Hu, in fact, the emperor is marrying his eldest daughter to a commoner. The one who should be angry the most is the Korean father-in-law!"

The sixth Duke in the early Ming Dynasty, in order of status, were Li Shanchang, Xu Da, Chang Mao (son of Chang Yuchun), Li Wenzhong, Feng Sheng, and Deng Yu.

If the descendants are hereditary, only Changmao will be hereditary. If there are no heirs, they will be hereditary in the form of brother to brother. There is no doubt about the merit of those who have been ennobled.

Each of these six people had their own advantages. The others were all awarded the title for their outstanding military service on the battlefield. Li Shanchang was the only civil servant, and he was ranked first.

It can be seen that he has an irreplaceable position in Zhu Yuanzhang's mind.

When conferring the title of meritorious official, Zhu Yuanzhang particularly emphasized:

"Although Shan Chang has no military exploits, his contribution is very great. Even Xiao He of the Han Dynasty may not be able to match him.

Therefore, he was awarded the title of Assistant Minister of the Founding of the Republic of China and the title of Duke of South Korea.

The annual salary is four thousand dan, which is inherited by descendants.

If you give me an iron coupon, you will be spared two deaths, and your son will be spared one death. "

Li Shan grew up to be one of the most favored saints, and no one could compare with him!

Hu Weiyong looked at Chen Ning and said casually:

"The Duke of South Korea is not from a grassroots background. He is a scholar who has studied Legalism and has profound foresight. He also has very harmonious views with His Majesty. How could he interfere in His Majesty's private affairs?"

Li Shanchang is a big boss. He does not adhere to the Confucian philosophy of governing with virtue and being too gentle. He is a person with practical ideas. Like Zhu Yuanzhang, he likes to use iron-blood policies and use violence to fight violence.

If I say I'll kill you, I'll kill you. What's the point of benevolence? I don't even bother to argue with you about the framework of Confucian morality. I'm an external Confucianist and an internal Dharma scholar.

Compared with Liu Ji who was "invited" by Zhu Yuanzhang to assist him, Li Shanchang was a fellow countryman who took the initiative to join him and taught Zhu Yuanzhang a lot of knowledge over the years.

Chen Ning had just been promoted by Zhu Yuanzhang for impeaching Li Shanchang a while ago. At this time, he proposed to let South Korea come forward. It can be said that he had no respect for the former leader of Huaixi.

If you can take advantage of it, take advantage of it. Our current boss is Hu Weiyong!

Hu Weiyong married his niece to Li You, the second son of Li Shanchang's brother Li Cunyi.

The Li and Hu families have closer ties.

"Prime Minister Hu, no one can come forward to deal with this matter as easily as Mr. South Korea."

Chen Ning kept picking up Li Shan's wool.

He knew clearly that the emperor would not let Li Shanchang return to the center of power in the Ming Dynasty.

In addition to the army in the Ming Dynasty, the most threatening person to the imperial power was the prime minister.

The bureaucracy has developed into a well-organized and large-scale entity.

Moreover, informal relationships such as teacher-student relationships and hometown relationships among officials were formed internally due to the imperial examination system and geographical factors.

In these two types of relationships, Li Shanchang is the "talker" who makes decisions!

Li Shanchang's appointment as prime minister was also the focus of the bureaucratic organization and scholar-bureaucrats, so he was bound to become the primary target of Zhu Yuanzhang's suspicion and prevention.

Now that Huaixi Group's new interest spokesperson has appeared.

Chen Ning believes that the old spokesperson should further dedicate himself to everyone and use his remaining energy!

If he doesn't charge forward, who will?

Hu Weiyong squinted his eyes and nodded slightly.

The Korean father should really be angry about this.

What is the rank of Wang Buli's father? He is a doctor.

Is he also qualified to sit in the same hall as the most important hero of the Ming Dynasty?

"We will send someone to talk to Mr. Korean about this."

In fact, Hu Weiyong's arrogance has been revealed unknowingly, and he actually wants to confront the emperor.

If you want to recruit a consort and ruin my plan, then I can't let you get what you want.

Li Shanchang went to Beijing to arrange his son's marriage, and was punished for his incompetence in educating his son. He has been staying behind closed doors in his mansion recently.

Then Li Cunyi, the Prime Minister of Taipu Temple, who was married to Hu Weiyong, came to see his brother.

As soon as they met, they said that the emperor actually married his eldest daughter to a commoner, but instead married the eldest daughter of a concubine to our family. Isn't this a slap in the face of the Korean father?

The number one hero of the Ming Dynasty, I think you, brother, are not even comparable to a commoner in the eyes of the emperor.

"Shut up!"

Li Shanchang banged his cane hard and yelled angrily.

Li Cunyi was frightened by his brother's remaining intimidation, so he couldn't help but said:

"Brother, you?"

"You don't know how to live or die, your majesty, how can you make such arrogant opinions?"

Since Hu Weiyong and Li Cunyi became in-laws, Hu Weiyong has given Li Cunyi many benefits in order to win over Li Shanchang.

What kind of political brain is Li Shanchang?

He thinks Hu Weiyong is a fool. Does he really think that the emperor doesn't know what he did?

The reason why Zhu Yuanzhang became Zhu Yuanzhang and stabilized the world was that countless strong men were defeated by him.

You, Hu Weiyong, actually think that you can deceive him into anything. You are really stupid.

Now you actually want to use me, Li Shanchang, to oppose what His Majesty has decided. Do you, Hu Weiyong, really think that I am stupid?

When I was planning for the emperor, you didn't know where you were fooling around!

Hu Weiyong slowly rose from the position of chief clerk of the county government to the county magistrate, and then to the local government.

Moreover, Hu Weiyong was able to enter the capital because he gave Li Shanchang two hundred taels of gold.

Li Shanchang gave him a hand for the sake of being a fellow villager.

As for how Hu Weiyong got the two hundred taels of gold, Li Shanchang didn't want to get into it.

How brave you are to dare to plot against him now!

After all, Li Shanchang was old, and the idiot in front of him was his biological brother. He didn't even know he was being used as a weapon, and he was still enjoying himself.

If it were anyone else, his younger brother would have known why he had lost his temper with Zhu Yuanzhang in his early years.

"Don't worry about this matter, serve the emperor well, get out!"

After Li Shanchang finished speaking, he sent someone to send his biological brother away.

Although he retired, his network of connections was not completely taken over by Hu Weiyong.

In other words, Li Shanchang is a person who loves power.

He didn't want to stay away from the court at a young age (less than sixty years old), but he still wanted to regroup and use his remaining enthusiasm for the Ming Dynasty.

When the servant reported that he had sent away his younger brother, Li Shanchang also knew what he should do to express his position.

After all, as the eldest son-in-law of the emperor, his son had to set an example.

So Li Shanchang decided to take his son to Wang Buli's house, which was for the emperor to see.

At this time, in the courtyard of Wang's family, a group of neighbors were eating and drinking, complimenting Dr. Wang and saying that Wang Buli was very promising.

Doctor Wang inevitably drank a few more drinks, so he ended up going back to bed early.

Moreover, the Wang family did not just invite the head of the family to the banquet, but all the men, women, and children from the whole family were invited. This was unprecedented.

After all, everyone has little money, so how can they afford such a banquet.

So there are not a few people who show off their rice.

Naturally, there was not much food left, so it was everyone's turn to take the noodles back for another meal.

The diligent women even washed the dishes, wiped the tables and other items, and then took them away.

As the representative of the family, Wang Buli was the one who was drunk the most. Everyone wanted to enjoy the congratulations of the prince-in-law.

The eldest brother Wang Guanzhong got up to see off the guests and asked his second brother to sit there and rest. His status now was incomparable to that of usual.

Wang Guanzhong's face turned red. He didn't have the good drinking capacity of his second brother.

When I got to the door, I saw someone getting off the carriage.

Wang Guanzhong was sure that no neighbors had been missed in this banquet, and he felt strange.

It was Li Qi who took the initiative and said, "My father, Mr. Han Guo, is here to visit."

Wang Guanzhong's eyes suddenly grew bigger, and his mouth was a little hard to use, and he couldn't say a single word.

Just salute quickly and please come in.

Li Shanchang was leaning on a cane. He knew that he was in good health. This was just to show His Majesty that he was old and had no ambitions that would threaten the imperial power.

Maybe he will die in a few years, so your majesty can feel free to use me boldly.

But Zhu Yuanzhang ignored this.

"Second brother, the Korean father-in-law and his son are here."

Wang Guanzhong quickly shouted in a low voice. The surprise just now had already made him sober up.

"Mr. Korea?"

Wang Buli stood up and looked at the old man and the young man in front of him.

Li Shanchang's face is quite long, and so is his son's face, which is horse-faced.

"No need to be formal."

Li Shanchang was leaning on a cane, not wearing any fancy clothes, and didn't dislike it at all. He just sat on the bamboo chair made by his neighbor who had just been drinking.

Li Qi quite disliked the place where he had just eaten. It was dirty and had not been completely cleaned, but because of his father's various warnings before coming, he had to sit with him.

"Wang Buli, right?" Li Shanchang put the crutch aside and nodded while looking at him: "He is indeed a talented person."
