Because Concubine Zheng has always been favored by Wanli, King Fu Zhu Changxun, as the son of Concubine Zheng, was naturally more popular with Wanli than Zhu Changluo, which made Zhu Changxun abusively accustomed to being arrogant since childhood and had no respect for imperial power.

What's more, he almost managed to control the power of the Ming Dynasty, which made him feel even more dissatisfied with the current emperor Zhu Youxiao, who is his nephew.

"Call out!"

"I will see who dares to take away my property!"

"What kind of debts are not debts? It is just a matter of doing it by the subordinates who hide it from me. If the subordinates owed the subordinates, they will ask the subordinates for debts. What is the point of taking away my own property? Even if it is the court, it must be reasonable. If he has the ability, the court will kill me directly. Otherwise, don't think that my father has passed away, and think that I am easy to bully, and you can take away my own property at will!"

Zhu Changxun immediately slapped the table hard and shouted sternly.

The royal palace was so popular that Liu Bizu, the official in the palace, hurriedly replied: "I obey the order!"

In Luoyang, the people in the Fu Palace were not afraid of being in office.

Especially during the Wanli period, because King Fu was favored by Wanli, it was not only King Fu himself, but also the entire Fu Palace, basically in Luoyang and even Henan, and the entire Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, from King Fu to an ordinary devotional official in King Fu's Mansion, he had a sense of arrogance.

Even though Wanli has passed away for more than five years, because of Taichang’s early death, Zhu Youxiao has been busy centralizing power and training in the past few years after he ascended the throne, dealing with external troubles and internal troubles such as Liaodong and Southwest, and suppressing gentry in Jiangnan. Therefore, the people in the Fu Palace are still very arrogant now.

"Damn it, I didn't ask before I came. The shops of Dou Dingshou, the owner of Henghe Grain Store, are actually whose industries are behind it! More than 200 stores in this area are from our Fuwang Mansion! Who dares to take them away? According to the king's order, all these people were beaten out!"

Liu Bizu brought more than 200 royal palace guards out of the royal city and came to a large shop where Li Zhizao, Lu Xiangsheng and others were at this time, and he said harsh words as soon as he came.

But at this time, Lu Xiangsheng only waved his hand.

More than three thousand guards all raised their firearms and spears in their hands, aiming at the two hundred guards of Liubizuhe.

Liu Bizu decisively shut up and did not dare to speak again. He just smiled and said, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, I'm just talking about it."

"withdraw!"

Liu Bizu then shouted.

Then, Liu Bizu decisively took his guards back to the royal palace.

Seeing this, Lu Xiangsheng glanced at Liu Bizu's back silently.

On this side, Li Zhizao also gave Liu Bizu a blank look, and then shouted: "Turn out all the people in this store first, check the account books, goods, and cash in. Those who block it will kill them without any hesitation!"

...

"Your Highness, I dare not lie. The officials who brought the court to investigate this time are well-trained officials! They have many firearms, and they are all tall and powerful. I am afraid that they will damage your guard in vain, so I have to retreat and report to you in time."

After Liu Bizu returned to the palace, he hurriedly informed King Fu of what he had encountered.

After hearing this, King Fu kicked Liu Bizu directly: "It's useless! Get out of here!"

"Yes, I'll get out now!"

Liu Bizu touched his stomach and hurriedly left the main hall of Prince Fu Mansion.

After Liu Bizu left, King Fu directly overthrew a large porcelain bottle in front of him to the ground and shouted: "Bastard! Bastard! Why should I take away my property? Why should I leave the capital and come to Luoyang City to be a bullshit prince! Why is it because he was born in front of me, even if he is just the son of a lowly palace maid, he can be the master of the world. Even his son can bully me at will now!"

King Fu vented a lot, and only after smashing everything in the lobby, he calmed down a little, staring at a pair of red eyes, looking at the divine outside the hall.

At this time, another devotional official next to King Fu, Qin Zhaohe hurriedly ran away: "Your Highness, your guest Ye Chuchun has something to see you."

"Prince!"

After Ye Chuchun fell into the water from Ye Xianggao, he left Fujian and came to Luoyang. He also entrusted his relationship with King Fu to be a guest, mainly responsible for contacting the people in the Shilin for King Fu.

King Fu also received a lot of important news from Ye Chuchun.

At this time, when King Fu saw Ye Chuchun was about to see him again, he knew that something more important must have happened in the court, so he hurriedly asked Xuan to see Ye Chuchun.

As soon as Ye Chuchun came to King Fu, he immediately pretended to be anxious and said, "Your Highness! This matter is urgent and may have even happened."

"What's the matter?"

King Fu asked in a little bit of trouble.

"According to the student's secret letter at the East Factory, the emperor has issued an order to strangle the imperial concubine to death, and to behead everyone except the exile of the mother and the child, all of them were executed. This is to destroy the entire family of the uncle!"

Ye Chuchun replied quickly.

"What?!"

After hearing this, King Fu was shocked and shouted directly: "Mother!"

Then, King Fu felt dizzy because he was too excited and took a few steps back.

Qin Zhaohe hurriedly supported him: "Your Highness!"

King Fu then came back to his senses and jumped out of the hall and yelled: "Zhu Youxiao! You are so cruel, are you really going to force me to rebel?"

...

"If King Fu is really forced to rebel, it would be better to pacify such a vassal king with no foundation. Moreover, the court can save a lot of support in the future. The same is true for vassal kings such as Lu. I am not afraid of them rebelling, but I am afraid that they will not rebel! If they endure humiliation, I will not find the opportunity to deal with these borer-like vassal kings! Instead, there will be no reason to reform the royal family. Otherwise, if the Ming Dynasty continues, these increasingly numerous royal families will sooner or later drag down the finances of the court!"

After Zhu Youxiao executed a group of honors in Nanjing on the grounds of clearing the portals for the families of heroes and nobles, he began to prepare to set off to return to Beijing.

The night before returning to the capital, Zhu Youxiao expressed his attitude towards these vassals and expressed his intention to reform the royal system because he mentioned with his ministers that he would cause the vassal kings to rebel.

"Your Majesty is wise! The annual salary of the vassal is no longer necessary. Now the annual tax is difficult to support the annual salary of the vassal, let alone the military preparations for war and even disaster relief. In the late stage of the temple, after the Fu King entered the vassal, the court was even more embarrassed, causing the country to collapse. Fortunately, Your Majesty has good governance, and copied the wealth of corrupt officials and businessmen and operated the official industries, and actually the treasury. However, the annual salary of the vassal is still not restrained. Even as long as the Ming Dynasty continues, the vassal kings will inevitably increase, and the annual salary will still increase. Therefore, sooner or later, the tax revenue of the imperial court is difficult to offset the annual salary of the vassal. For example, there are still five princes about to be vassal, and in the future, your Majesty's imperial heirs will also be vassal. These all require the world to give a vast land and the court will provide rich annual salary to support it. Therefore, the reform of the system of the vassal is indeed imminent!"

Xiong Tingbi echoed.
