Chapter 91: A young man with a hot heart (2)(1/2)
More than one million yuan of silver was spent, but the king and his ministers wanted to sue for more than one hundred thousand yuan, which sounded a bit ridiculous, but now the finances of the Ming Dynasty are like this. If you have a little bit of a big hand, you will have a hole.
In the hall, Zhu Yunxiu walked back and forth, with a wry smile on his face.
Because he remembered the Qing palace dramas he watched in his previous life, the king and his ministers had millions of military spending and tens of millions of money for garden construction as soon as he opened his mouth to discuss matters, but he was.
The Qing Dynasty's financial raising ability was indeed better than that of the Ming Dynasty, and it was not the time when silver from all over the world poured in crazily. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty does not collect taxes now, especially commercial taxes.
Outsiders could not imagine the old man's stubbornness. On the one hand, he despises businessmen, and on the other hand, he does not charge heavy taxes. In the final analysis, business is beneficial to the people, and not collecting taxes is also to hide wealth from the people.
Zhu Yunyu walked to the screen, picked up the red pen, and wrote two lines of words.
Japanese pirates, trade taxes, sea trade, colonization!
Northern Yuan Dynasty, administration, weaving, and vassal kings!
After reading for a while, these old men should slowly draw them in one day. They sighed and said to the solemn turtle, "Damn it!"
Yes! The turtle was holding a piece of fine cloth and wiped it hard for a few times. The handwriting on the screen was eliminated and restored to its original state.
Where is the old man? Zhu Yunxiu asked while taking a sip of tea.
Go back to the master, the old emperor is in the Imperial Garden! The turtlema said, early in the morning, he took Eunuch Park with me!
Let's go and have a look! Zhu Yunxiu said.
No one believed it, but there were several acres of cropland hidden in the imperial garden in the Forbidden City. As early as when Queen Ma was there, there was a vegetable garden. Later, the old man personally led the people to make orders and planted crops there every year.
Now is the time for spring plowing. Although the old man became the emperor, no one can stop him from going to the fields to work. In his words, when he became the emperor, you must know how much spring planted and how much autumn harvested. Based on the output, you can judge the harvest of the people this year.
Farming is the same as fighting. When the commander is in command of the central army, he eats the same food as the soldiers. If the commander is hungry, the soldiers on the front line will definitely be hungry long ago.
Zhu Yunxiu took the palace servants and walked into the imperial garden. As soon as he entered, he saw the old man working in the field.
The old man was wearing old coarse cloth clothes, and his trouser sleeves were rolled up high, just like an ordinary farmer. A hemp rope was carried on his shoulders, and the old man walked forward, pulling the person tied behind the hemp rope...............
Behind the hemp rope is a plough, and after the plough is Pu Bucheng who pushes hard. The old man is in front and he is in the back. Wherever the two of them pass, the soil is turned up. On the edge of the field, countless palace people lowered their hands and looked like stone statues, silent.
Grandpa Huang, don’t be tired! Zhu Yunxiu quickly pulled out his robe and ran over a few steps. You are so old, just let others do these things. Look at your shoulders! Oh, do you think you are a young man?
Farming is a labor of hard work, and each person pulls and pushes the plow. Even adult men can’t do much in a day. What’s more, the old man is over 60 years old.
Who asked you to come in? The old man not only didn’t appreciate it, but instead said angrily, “Look, you have stepped on the ridge you just made!
Zhu Yunxiu looked down and saw that the other person's ridge was like a line, which made him look beyond recognition after a few kicks.
Hurry up and let it aside and said, Grandpa Huang, come up!
You unlucky child! The old man shook his head and said, "It's a land where we keep the rice-married rice, and it's a bit taller than the other ones." As he said that, he waved his hand impatiently, and go, don't make trouble here!"
I...........
Your Highness waited for a while! Pu Bucheng was like a thin old farmer, and said while wiping his sweat, there was still half a ridge, and the servant and the emperor would go up after they finished farming!
There is no way, Zhu Yunxiu could only carefully step on the ridge of the ground and return the same way. Grandpa Huang, are you not going to plant paddy fields this year?
The old man in the field continued to pull the plow and shouted, "This year, we plant some wheat beans. The land in our palace is too fine on weekdays. We are both rushing birds and pouring fertilizers, which is higher than that of ordinary people."
As he said that, the old man suddenly exerted force, and the plow brought out a stone. The yield in our land is high, so we can't tell what it is! This year, we don't need to serve some easy-to-make wheat beans, so we don't need so many people to serve them. See how much it can be produced!
Or can you be the emperor? Zhu Yunxiu sat down on a recliner by the field, and you are the most concerned about the people!
Haha! The old man in Tianaka laughed and was very proud.
Zhu Yunxiu was not flattering. There were so many rebel military leaders at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, all of whom were heroes, but the one who ended up in the world was the old man, who was relatively weak at the beginning. In addition to military affairs, the old man's intention of seeing the small things also played a great role.
At this time, Zhu Yunxiu looked around and there was no pot of hot tea beside him except for the stools and chairs.
What's going on? Zhu Yunxiu said angrily, "I don't even have hot water?" How do you serve me?"
Others dared not speak, Caiyun, who had just been serving the old man for a few days, said timidly, Your Highness, it is not a slave or a servant who is unruly, but a grandmother concubine...
Zhao Ning'er?
When Zhu Yunqiu was puzzled, he saw a girl with a basket on her face and a woman's head combed, smiling from a distance.
If it weren't for Zhao Ning'er, who else could it be?
Are you? Zhu Yunxiu saw that his wife was wearing a commoner and asked, "Where are you doing this?"
I have seen Your Highness! Zhao Ning'er first had a blessing and said with a smile, "I saw the old man going to the field in the morning, and I was the granddaughter-in-law, so how could I stay in the house?" As he said, he smiled and said, "I also did farm work at my grandfather's house when I was a child."
no!?
Zhu Yunxi looked at Zhao Ning'er with a healthy blush on her face, and then looked at the old man in the field. Suddenly, she felt that she was a little redundant.
Old man, you have a rest and have a meal! Zhao Ning'er shouted to the fields.
Wait a minute, it's almost done! The old man replied.
Don’t wait, it will be cold in a while! Zhao Ning'er smiled and said, "I will do it after I finish eating, and my wife will help you!"
If Zhu Yunxiu said this, the answer you get is 80% worth three words, go!
But when Zhao Ning'er asked, the old man smiled and took off the rope from his shoulders and walked over with his hands behind his back.
That's what you talk to Grandpa Emperor? Zhu Yunxi asked in a low voice.
Zhao Ning'er blinked and smiled, Your Highness, don't you know yet? Old man, just take this trick!
This girl is more concise than she imagines!
The old man faces the ministers and the family members. And he really only takes the folk style. If you call him the old man, you will definitely be happier than asking His Majesty to make him happy.
Of course, this matter is divided into who! Only Zhu Yunsheng can get this treatment. Now, Zhao Ning'er is added.
What good food? The old man sat down with a big golden sword and said with a smile.
The soup was stewed with cabbage and pork belly, and the soup was milky white! Zhao Ning'er put a towel wet and carefully wiped the old man's hand and smiled. There were also fried local eggs with green garlic, golden and oily! My wife just saw that there were newly fried oil residues in the imperial kitchen, so she ordered a bowl of stewed with garlic, which was fragrant!
As he said that, he changed another towel. Master, please look up!
The old man really closed his eyes and looked up, letting Zhao Ning'er wipe it off.
Zhao Ning'er was also not vague. Not only did she wipe the old man's face, but she also pulled off a small piece from the corner of the old man's eyes and vaguely vaguely.
Zhu Yunxiu was stunned. This...my status seems to be a bit precarious?
Eunuch Park, you can wipe it too! After Zhao Ning'er finished wiping the old man, she handed Park Bucheng a towel.
I don’t dare! Park Bucheng dares not accept it, but his face is full of gratitude.
You're done with your work? The old man didn't even look at Zhu Yunxiu, sit down and eat together!
Yes! Zhu Yunxiu sat down and wanted to get the old man's dishes, but Zhao Ning'er was one step ahead of him.
He wanted to serve the rice for the old man again, but a bowl of bean rice with the top was already placed in front of the old man by Zhao Ning'er. By the way, he also put a few cloves of garlic.
I..........
It's only been a few days, I'm really redundant!
Zhu Yunxiu looked at his diligent wife and didn't know whether to be happy or what to do.
Your Highness, I will serve you a meal! Zhao Ning'er finished her work and said with a smile.
This is quite reasonable, and I know to serve me the rice! Zhu Yunxiu felt a little better and sat down again.
But as soon as he sat down, he heard the old man laughing and scolding, asking him to serve himself, he could do less than two taels of heavy work a day, and he would ask you to serve him after a meal? He didn't have any hands? As he said that, he ate a big bite of bean rice and said with a smile, it smells good! OK!
The rice was cooked by the wife watching the people in the imperial kitchen. The rice was fried from a large iron pot and firewood, which was the best to eat! Zhao Ning'er said, taking out a bowl alone, then served some stewed tofu pork belly, and then picked up a few golden fried eggs with chopsticks.
I still have me in my heart! Zhu Yunxiu is not favored by the old man today, and she is feeling depressed. Seeing that his wife is like this, she feels a little more comfortable.
But when I reached out to take it, I found that this bowl of rice was not for him!
Eunuch Park, be tired, eat some! Zhao Ning'er puts her hands on another small table.
I dare not! Park Bucheng was really shocked, so he knelt down and said in panic that he was not as good as a pig or dog, and he dared not be the empress like this!
This girl is so kind! The old man smiled and said, "Do you want to scare him to death when you serve him rice?"
Zhao Ning'er smiled sweetly, and his wife also saw that he had worked with you all morning. In ordinary people's homes, those who are wives should treat long-term workers well............
He is not a human thing, what do you care about him! The old man smiled and said, but after looking at Park Bucheng, he actually said for the first time, you are tired of us for a whole morning. Our granddaughter-in-law is right. Dogs eat meat and fish during festivals. Please give me some food!
I am! Park Bucheng looked up. This seventh-rank Jingshifang who everyone in the palace is afraid of, the eunuch of the internal officials and supervisors is already crying and burst into tears. Old slave, Xie Emperor, thank you Your Majesty! Old slave, it’s worth it to die now!
Don't say that! Zhao Ning'er smiled and said, "You are the one available to the old man. If you die, the old man will have to find someone to serve you." Clothes are not as good as the new, and people are not as good as the old man. You must live well to serve the old man!"
The old slave will serve his master in the next life! Park Bucheng cried out in disobedience.
This scene once again refreshed Zhu Yunxi's perception.
My wife, looking honest and lively, actually feels angry!
Suddenly, Zhu Yunxiu realized that the old man was also looking at him.
The grandparents and grandchildren looked at each other, and the old man's eyes were full of teasing smiles. He seemed to be saying, "Silly grandson, your grandfather has found you a smart wife, how about it?"
Suddenly, Zhu Yunxiu understood. Isn’t the old man thinking that a wife who can manage the family well and that of a big family well?
Don’t be busy! Eat together! Zhu Yunxiu sighed in his heart.
No hurry, men eat first, why are we women anxious?
