Ming Dynasty: Every day, Zhu Yuanzhang is in trouble

Chapter 283 Zhu Yuanzhang lost confidence after being tricked by Mei Yin

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard Empress Ma ask this question, he suddenly became silent.

Before this, he had never taken the matter of the treasure notes seriously.

I just feel that although there will be some dangers, but overall, for the Ming Dynasty, as long as the benefits outweigh the disadvantages, it can be implemented.

In his opinion, the advantages of the treasure banknotes truly outweigh the disadvantages.

When he first implemented it, he knew there would be certain dangers.

But he never felt that the harm would be so serious and it was completely within his tolerance.

Moreover, this harm seems so insignificant compared with the various benefits brought by the treasure notes.

This allows him to ignore the warnings and continue to promote the treasure notes.

Moreover, he attached great importance to Baochao and did not think that there would be any major problems with Baochao.

Now that the Baochao has been in use for nearly a year, its various benefits are obvious.

With the large-scale promotion of Baochao, the Ming Dynasty’s shortage of money was greatly alleviated.

With money, all businesses will flourish.

It became prosperous all of a sudden.

A thriving scene.

These are the benefits brought by Baochao.

That bastard Mei Yin only saw the disadvantages brought by the treasure notes, but didn't see the benefits they brought at all.

Just whining there...

However, this idea existed before.

Looking at the treasure notes again now, especially after clearly confirming that one string of treasure notes is now really only worth nine hundred and ninety coins.

Zhu Yuanzhang's ideas were no longer so firm.

There began to be some hesitation.

It was only after Mei Yin's death that he saw exactly when the treasure notes became worthless.

Only then did he begin to face up to the dangers of Baochao.

I realized before that I had not known enough about the harm of Baochao.

Underestimated the harm of Baochao.

This banknote is becoming worthless so quickly!

Until now, Zhu Yuanzhang still hasn't quite figured it out.

Why is it that even though the currency is clearly printed with the value of one yuan, its value becomes smaller when it is actually used?

Only nine hundred and ninety coins were left.

Even if one has clearly determined that the value of the treasure note is the same as what is marked on it, there is no way out.

But this treasure note has become worthless...

Thinking about this kind of thing made Zhu Yuanzhang feel particularly uncomfortable.

Especially if you think about it again, the treasure notes that Mei Yin mentioned will become worthless even faster as time goes by.

I felt even more uncomfortable in my heart.

As for being a little panicked.

It was difficult for him to imagine what the situation would be like in the future when one Guan banknote was worth eight hundred Wen, or even less, to only four or five hundred Wen.

By then, people's lives will inevitably become extremely difficult.

As that bastard Mei Yin said, he would be hated by the people because of this and be called Jie and Zhou. Such a thing is not impossible.

This made him feel a little uneasy and sweat broke out on his forehead.

Moreover, he thought of another thing.

That is, he gave a clear order that the value of the treasure note is equal to the face value on the treasure note.

The number is as large as marked above.

But later on, the treasure notes became worthless.

When ordinary people conduct transactions with each other, they will definitely use the actual value of the treasure notes, right?
However, there are some capable people in those powerful families.

What will it be like when you use the treasure notes again?
There will definitely be people who, when the Baochao becomes worthless, will force others to recognize that this piece of money is still worth one piece of money!

Even when a guan of treasure notes was only worth 400 wen, they still forced themselves to use a guan of notes worth only 300 or 400 wen as a real guan of notes...

How difficult life will be for common people!

It’s hard to describe the feelings in Zhu Yuanzhang’s heart!

Under such circumstances, how much injustice would the people suffer?

How great will the hatred be?

They will definitely hate those corrupt officials and powerful people who force themselves to do such things.

However, he would also hate himself as the emperor who issued the treasure notes and forcibly stipulated that the value of the treasure notes was the same as the face value on them!!!
That bastard Mei Yin wasn't exaggerating, what he said was actually true! !

The more I thought about it, the more shocked I became, even to the point of fear!

Cold sweat kept rolling down his forehead.

My hands couldn't help but tremble.

The great Emperor Hongwu killed countless enemies along the way.

When it comes to killing corrupt officials, there will be absolutely no mercy.

But now, after realizing these things, he trembled!

I feel particularly panicked
Zhu Yuanzhang felt extremely terrified whenever he thought about such a scene!
It was the last thing he wanted to see.

He clearly wanted to give the people a good life, but he ended up making things worse.

No matter how many good things Baochao has, this one thing alone is enough to make people extremely vigilant.

It makes people curse so much that they don’t even want to carry it out again!

If the treasure notes are not corrected and allowed to continue like this, I will be hated by the people and called Jie and Zhou, which is not impossible...

However, what methods should be used to solve the dangers of Baochao?

How can we avoid these?
When Zhu Yuanzhang was asked about this matter, the man remained silent.

After all, before today, when Mei Yin had not yet made a death-defying remonstrance against him, he still disdained what Mei Yin had said before, that the treasure notes would depreciate.

I didn't take it to heart.

I think Mei Yin is just exaggerating.

He didn't understand the real beauty of Baochao at all.

Now, he has only just realized the harm of Baochao.

Under such circumstances, it would be too much to ask him to come up with a solution.

When Empress Ma saw Zhu Yuanzhang's reaction, she reached out and held his hand tightly and said, "Chongba, you have good intentions.

It’s for the sake of the Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, this was an unintentional mistake.

Besides, didn’t these things happen?

Baochao has only just begun to become worthless.

As long as we can find ways to repair the treasure notes as quickly as possible, there won't be too many bad consequences in the future.

There is still a chance to correct it.

As long as things are done right, Baochao is actually a good thing.

It's just that there are some things in it that we haven't figured out yet.

That’s why these problems arise.

Next, as long as we can find ways to find the problems inside.

And just use the appropriate method to solve it.

The people of the Ming Dynasty will still remember your kindness.

The horrific scene that Mei Yin described will not appear..."

As a married couple for many years, Empress Ma knew very well what her husband was thinking.
And know what he really cares about.

Hearing Empress Ma's comfort, Zhu Yuanzhang took a deep breath and nodded.

He held Empress Ma's hand even more tightly.

I feel that meeting my sister is the greatest luck in my life.

With a girl around, I can stay calm about many things.

In this matter, what my sister said does make sense.

The emergence of these problems does not mean that the Baochao system is bad.

The Baochao system is indeed very good.

This can be seen from the many gratifying changes that have taken place in the Ming Dynasty after the issuance of Baochao.

Now, there are just some problems that we have not considered before.

In this situation, if we can come up with corresponding solutions, we can solve these problems.

Then the treasure banknotes will only benefit the country and the people.

And there will be no harm to the people.

When this thought appeared in his mind, Zhu Yuanzhang's mood became much calmer.

The emotions are not as intense anymore.

However, when thinking about what methods to use to solve the serious problems that have arisen, I immediately fell into a new round of confusion.

Because he had no idea about it.

“Chongba, don’t think about it for now.

This matter cannot be resolved in a short period of time.

So many things happened today, Chongba, and you are in a mess.

It is not easy to come up with a proper solution to this problem in a short period of time.
Take a rest first.

It’s not too late to think about it tomorrow after you’ve rested enough.

With your talent, Chongba, you will definitely be able to come up with a good way to solve this problem.

Besides, aren’t there so many ministers?
We don't raise them just to eat and do nothing.

When it’s time to forget, you should ask for advice…”

Queen Ma actually wanted to ask Mei Yin directly about this matter.

Through all the things that happened before.

She also had a deeper understanding of this matter in her heart.

Knowing these seemingly difficult things, they are often nothing to a good son-in-law like Mei Yin.

Mei Yin, this kid, is not really just trying to make a death-defying remonstration.

In addition to these, he will give corresponding solutions to solve these problems!

But she couldn't say that.

After all, Chongba was very angry at that time.

Mentioning these things at this time will definitely make Chongba feel unhappy.

It's better to take it slow on this matter.

If it really doesn't work, you can also let Biaoer quietly ask Mei Yin.

In this way, after getting a good solution from Mei Yin, Mei Yin's guilt in this matter can be greatly reduced.

Let Chongba not be so annoyed with Mei Yin.

Try your best to ease the relationship between the father-in-law and the son-in-law...

After listening to what Empress Ma said, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said no more about the matter.

He lay here and talked a few more words to Queen Ma, then told her to get some rest.

Then he turned over and started snoring.

This ability to fall asleep made Empress Ma extremely envious.

Listening to the snoring beside me, I felt very heartbroken.

My own Chongba is having such a hard life!

Many people only saw his power and prestige, but did not see how hard his life was...

As an emperor, his life is not easy!
There are so many things that he needs to worry about, and so many people in the entire Ming Dynasty are on his shoulders!

All she could do was to accompany him silently and try to do something.

Comfort him, comfort him, and try to make him less distracted...

Afterwards, he thought of his son-in-law Mei Yin, and felt relieved but also somewhat helpless.

This child is smart and also really responsible.

But the way he spoke... was really infuriating!
He and Chongba are really natural enemies!
We can't just talk properly, and when we meet, there are always things that make people worry...

After thinking about it for a while, he couldn't help but shook his head.

It seems that Mei Yin cannot be blamed for this matter.

Mei Yin had talked about the matter of Baochao with his family Biaoer more than once before.

In the end, Chongba didn't care.

In the end, Mei Yin couldn't help but once again gave Chongba a death warning...

There is no clear logic behind this.

Thinking of this, he shook his head and a smile appeared on his face.

But no matter what, this son-in-law is really good.

Everything I think about is for the Ming Dynasty.

It is a blessing for the Ming Dynasty to have such people around!
It is also Chongba’s blessing!

For a moment, she couldn't help but wonder, what if Chongba had corrected all the things that Mei Yin had died for?

How far can I go in the future...

……

"Dad! Dad! Good news! Great news!!"

The atmosphere in Yongjia Marquis's Mansion was particularly solemn. Many servants held their breath and were extremely nervous.

They walked very quietly, not daring to make the slightest sound.

Even the fart that he wanted to let out had to be held back.

It was really that this time, after their lord came back, his condition was so scary.

He looked as if he wanted to poke a hole in the sky and chop down everyone he saw.

This feeling is simply unmentionable!

There are quite a few people among them who have followed Yongjia Hou Zhu Liangzu for a long time.

As far as I can remember, I have never seen my master look like this before!

Therefore, everyone kept their tails between their legs and behaved cautiously.

He was afraid that if he wasn't careful, he would be caught by this mad marquis and killed.

That would be really unfair!

Even if you die, you will die in vain!

At the same time, everyone was constantly wondering what had happened.

Only then could one make his master become like this.

Then, some more news spread quietly?

Some people know the whole story.

They realized that this was their marquis, who had suffered a great loss outside.

He was forced to eat cow dung in front of the emperor and all the civil and military officials.

Moreover, he ate two of them directly!!
Such explosive news stunned many people.

Don’t tell them how surprised they are!

At the same time, he suddenly understood why his master was in such a state.

Even if such a thing happened to an ordinary person, it would be absolutely unbearable.

Not to mention that it happened to a person like my own marquis!

What is the identity of the Marquis?
What kind of status?
He is the most face-conscious person.

Now, this kind of thing happened in front of the emperor.

Given the Marquis's temper, how could I tolerate this?

While feeling shocked, I was also extremely shocked and curious about the newly appeared sweet potatoes.

How could this thing be so magical?
Is the yield per mu really that high?
Who would have thought of this!
The highest yield per acre of land can reach 5,000 kilograms!

Moreover, it is said that this is because it is a late sweet potato and has a short growth period.

Therefore, there are fewer sweet potatoes.

If it is early sweet potato, planted in spring and given enough time to grow, one acre of land can yield five to six thousand kilograms, or even more!
Many people were extremely confused and instinctively suspected that this was fake.

But then he thought of his master, who had eaten cow dung because of this, and suddenly he became certain of it.

This thing must be true.

Otherwise, how could a man of my own status and position eat cow dung?

So the name of this sweet potato spread quickly.

Countless people believe in it and are extremely curious about this sweet potato.

They wanted to see what the crop looked like that had such an amazing yield and was enough to make their lord eat two piles of cow dung!
Just as Zhu Yuanzhang and some others thought, Zhu Liangzu and Mei Yin made a bet as a prize for collecting sweet potatoes.

Moreover, Zhu Liangzu, the Marquis of Yongjia, ate two piles of cow dung in front of so many people after losing a bet.

This thing will definitely spread.

It is very helpful to promote the reputation of sweet potatoes.

It can make many people believe that this is true.

It will be very beneficial to promote sweet potatoes in the future.

This effect is simply awesome!
Even the people in Yongjia Marquis' Mansion have the same idea.

Not to mention the rest of the people who have nothing to do with it.

I am becoming more and more interested in sweet potatoes.

They were shocked by the sweet potato yield and also extremely shocked by the fact that their lord ate cow dung.

Mei Yin, the son-in-law of Shuangshui, was also extremely surprised and shocked by the man who made a bet with their lord and, after winning the bet, actually forced his lord to eat cow dung.

This was something they had never thought of before.

This Mei Yin is really stupid!
Really arrogant and domineering!

He made such a bet with his own Lord Marquis, and he actually dared to ask his Lord Marquis to fulfill the bet!

What did he think?

No matter who is right or wrong in this incident, it is wrong for him to do such a ruthless thing!

Stay on the front line when doing things, and see you in the future.

Mei Yin has completely blocked the road!
What is the status and temper of my own marquis?
Mei Yin is such a bastard, he has no mercy at all.

Do something like this.

This is a fight to the death with my own marquis!
Even if he is a royal consort, I'm afraid he won't have a good life in the future!

They were very clear about how capable their lord was.

It was in this extremely depressing atmosphere that an exciting voice suddenly rang out.

Two figures flew quickly towards the room where Zhu Liangzu was.

These people were none other than Zhu Xian and Mei Yi.

Such a scene made everyone in Zhu Liangzu's house look a little confused.

What good news can there be at this time?

They couldn't figure it out no matter how hard they tried.

It can't be that something happened to Mei Yin, right?

Moreover, it was a particularly big accident?
This thought appeared in my mind.

He immediately threw it out of his mind!
How can it be!

Mei Yin was the emperor's son-in-law, and because of the sweet potato incident, he was named Shuangshui Earl.

And this time, he did the same thing in front of the emperor and civil and military officials!
Under such circumstances, it can be said to be very popular!
There is no way anything could possibly happen to him!
However, apart from him getting into trouble, they really couldn't figure out what kind of good things could have happened to make the young marquis react like this...

Zhu Xian didn't care what these people were feeling.

Taking Mei Yi with him, he hurried straight to the room where his father was.

I pushed the door open and found a mess inside.

Cups, plates, vases, and some white jade items that his father used to treasure were all smashed to pieces!

Yongjia Marquis Zhu Liangzu's face turned dark.

With murderous aura rising to the sky.

His eyes were bloodshot and he reeked of alcohol.

I heard my son yelling and saw him push the door open.

Zhu Liangzu's face turned even darker and he felt like getting angry.

He doesn't want others to see him like this.

It would be the same even if the person coming in at this time was his son!
Just as he was about to get angry, he heard Zhu Xian speak first.

"Dad! Good news! Very good news!"

Zhu Liangzu seemed a little surprised when he heard what his son said.

Some even want to curse.

What good news can there be at this time?

It's almost as if he has become the laughing stock of the entire capital!
"Dad! That bastard Mei Yin is in trouble!
What bad luck!

After we left, His Majesty held a celebration banquet.

That bastard actually made a death remonstrance to Your Majesty in front of all the civil and military officials, making Your Majesty so angry that he was fuming! ! "

Zhu Xian looked at Zhu Liangzu and said this, his voice filled with uncontrollable excitement.

Yongjia Hou Zhu Liangzu, who originally wanted to say something and scold his son, heard what Zhu Xian said.

He swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue, and became extremely excited.

"real?
What you said is actually true?!"

"Dad, it's absolutely true! Brother Mei was an eyewitness to this incident.

As soon as I returned to the capital, I came here to tell you this great news..."

As he said this, he turned his body to the side, revealing Mei Yi.

"Uncle, it's all true!

It's absolutely true. I don't know what made that bastard so brave and crazy.

He came to Your Majesty in front of so many people to make a death-defying remonstrance against the Baochao system.

The treasure note system established by Your Majesty was said to be worthless.

Later on, some even said that Your Majesty's behavior was like Jie and Zhou!"

Mei Yi said excitedly.

High spirits.

Whenever he thought about this, he felt particularly happy.

Because he had a good relationship with Zhu Xian, and this time, Zhu Liangzu had eaten cow dung.

This made him and Zhu Liangzu and his son natural allies.

Under such circumstances, how could he not come over as soon as possible and tell them such good news?

First, it is to express the joy in our hearts together.

Secondly, I also want to take this opportunity to maintain the friendship between myself and Zhu Xian.

From now on, we can work together to deal with that bastard Mei Yin.

These...are all true?!

Upon hearing this, Zhu Liangzu suddenly became extremely excited.

All the anger in my heart subsided and my eyes lit up!
"Has that bastard Mei Yin been chopped off by His Majesty?!"

Zhu Liangzu asked loudly.

He really wanted to see Mei Yin get into trouble!
I just wish I could cut Mei Yin into pieces and feed him to the dogs!
In his opinion, Mei Yin had made such a big mistake and would definitely not have a good ending in the future.

The emperor is not a very good-tempered person.

Mei Yin dared to tease the tiger's whiskers in public and did such an excessive thing, and even directly called the emperor Jie and Zhou.

Under such circumstances, the emperor would definitely not forgive him.

Mei Yi, who was in high spirits, looked somewhat embarrassed when he heard what Zhu Liangzu said.

Because none of what Zhu Liangzu said happened.

“That… Your Majesty was so furious that he wanted to draw his sword and kill the bastard right there and then.

However, the Crown Prince, Liu Bowen, Prince of Yan Zhu Di, Prince of Jin, and even Duke Cao and many other people pleaded for mercy, so it was temporarily stopped..."

He gritted his teeth as he spoke this.

Zhu Liangzu was also full of disappointment.

He couldn't help but punched the table in front of him that was covered with sword marks.

I just feel that those who pleaded for Mei Yin deserve to die.

Each of them is an ugly person.

Why should I beg for that bastard Mei Yin?
“However, His Majesty said that the death penalty can be pardoned, but the living crime cannot be forgiven!
Give that bastard fifty lashes of the cane and throw him in jail, where he will die!"

When he said this, Mei Yi became a little excited again.

As long as he saw Mei Yin being punished, he felt happy.

When Zhu Liangzu heard what Mei Yi said, he felt that the punishment was too light.

According to him, it was that bastard Mei Yin who caused all those things.

It is best to just peel the daylily and then chop the remaining meat into puree.

All nine clans of Mei Yin should be killed, including the dogs in the house, and it would be best to kill all the pigs as well.

"This punishment is too light!"

He let out a breath, full of depression.

“My nephew thinks so too, that bastard is going too far!

How dare you provoke my uncle like this.

However, being put in jail was not a bad opportunity.

The prison is not a good place to stay!"

After hearing Mei Yi's words, Zhu Liangzu looked at Mei Yi.

Mei Yi nodded vigorously.

With some viciousness on his face

Zhu Liangzu thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "No, since these are the punishments made by His Majesty, and he is His Majesty's son-in-law.

Then no matter how angry I am, I must abide by your majesty's decision.

I will never do anything to bend the law for personal gain."

Mei Yi was a little dazed, and quickly spoke up to persuade Zhu Liangzu.

Zhu Liangzu's attitude was very firm.

After a few people discussed it here for a while, Zhu Liangzu personally sent Mei Yi out.

After returning to the room, Zhu Xian looked a little puzzled and said to Zhu Liangzu, "Dad, are you really not going to take action against Mei Yin when he is imprisoned in the prison?"

Zhu Liangzu laughed when he heard this.

But this smile seemed particularly eerie and terrifying!
