I am the king of the dead

Chapter 357 No more hesitation, you must punch hard!
The seven-month-long rebellion led to military disasters in Jiangnan, the most fertile land in Ming Dynasty.

The destruction of the rebels and the last crazy looting led to the collapse of people's livelihood.

The workshop closed down, the furnace owner stopped smelting, the shops began to close, the farmland became barren, the official roads and post roads were destroyed, the merchants were blocked, there were wandering people and unemployed people everywhere, and there were countless displaced people outside the city refugees.

The master of the Ming Dynasty came and put down the chaos. Although Liu Pu from Guangdong and Guangxi was still making the final resistance, how to resume production had become the emperor's top priority.

It was in this serious and complicated situation that since the end of the Song Dynasty, the unresolved and leftover speculators planned to give the emperor eye drops to let the emperor know how powerful they were.

They want to rely on the people to oppose His Majesty's harsh laws.

After Zhu Qiyu's court meeting in the Wenhua Palace, Li Yongchang asked Li Yongchang to bring Zhu Qiyu's personal edict to Yingtian Mansion to issue the imperial edict.

"Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict said:"

"I only follow the way of the people of the monarchy, giving comfort and comfort first, and then all officials, big and small, must take care of the affairs together, and then the government affairs will be carried out to please everyone, and the governance will be effective while the customs will be bad, hoping for a peaceful governance."

"In fact, because the rebels and treacherous ministers have humiliated the country and harmed all living beings, it is deeply abhorrent."

"Since the establishment of King Zhenxing, the civil and military officials have either kept their positions mediocre and kept silent, or asked the public to ask for relocation, or suppressed the subordinates in order to contribute, or were greedy and greedy to enrich their wealth. If this is not the case Xi Rong enumerated it because Yu Rong was unable to appease the people, and the obedient party was filled with anger."

"You should cleanse your mind and worry. Mo Shen not only hurts the small people, but also hurts the general. The people live up to the appointment of the imperial court, and the army and the people look up to them. There is a record."

"If there are profiteers who take the opportunity to stockpile and take advantage of the odds to shoot profits, so that they complain and complain, they may regard this as normal, and still follow the same pattern without warning. The ancestors are constitutional, and I will not lend you money."

"Chin this."

"Announcement to the world, Xian envoys hear it."

Zhu Qiyu's decree is very long, which means that he has been very cautious since he took the throne, but because the rebel army harmed the lives, Zhu Qiyu, as the emperor, had to raise troops to suppress the rebellion.

But when he arrived in Nanjing, he was very disappointed by the situation. All kinds of chaos were too numerous to enumerate. Even with a large army in hand, people's livelihood could not be stabilized.

He advised these speculators to change their minds, not to disappoint the expectations of the imperial court, the army and the people, and to make some contributions to the society of the Ming Dynasty.

In his imperial edict, he seriously warned profiteers to hoard money and shoot profits. If the people complained, they would still follow the same pattern and have no warning.

Then Zhu Qiyu is about to go crazy!
He hoped that these powerful and powerful families would be people of life, not people of fun.

In the end, he became a joke and was beheaded, ransacked, and exiled by his family.

This edict is a solemn warning, and it is also hoped that some people will rein in the precipice at the last moment, realize their way back, and turn around.

Zhu Qiyu, as a "Shandong Maritime Merchant", was invited to participate in the rally again.

This time, it wasn't the top-level conspiracy of the Yanyun Tower, but went directly to the Meixiang Tower and started a big banquet.

The layout of Meixiang Building and Yanyun Building is not the same. Yanyun Building is composed of four three-storey auxiliary buildings connected by corridors to the five-story main building.

The Meixiang Building is on the Qinhuai River, stretching for more than a hundred steps. It is more like a painting boat dock than a building.

The sun was setting early again, the water surface was dyed a shimmering yellow by the setting sun, and the river surface was painted with a touch of rouge.

The painting boat pushes away the waves, pushes away the silent river, beats it with the oars, but it is gurgling.

The lights on both sides of the strait are just beginning to come on, and the silhouettes of the buildings on the shore are submerged in the golden reflection of the setting sun.

The dizzying lights in the river, the setting sun, the criss-crossing painting boats, the melodious flute rhyme, and the squeaky huqin sound are like poetry and picturesque.

The cool breeze on the river is gradually cooling down.

The players on the painting boat and among the buildings began to fiddle with the pipa, and lightly opened their red lips. What they can't say is the endless love and hatred, and the years that are hard to stay.

The songs of these actors have been floating on the Qinhuai River for thousands of years, and there seems to be a lot of emotion in their melodious voices.

In my heart, there is a gentle sadness; in my mouth, there is a low singing that wanders.

Chen Wanniang's voice was extremely light and agile, like a bird singing, extremely cheerful, the smile between her brows and eyes melted into Liubo's heart like honey.

Even sobbing would be too troublesome, let alone whimpering?
Your Majesty is a promising monarch. Although she already knows that it is difficult for her to have a serious status, it is a great blessing to be able to serve such a hero for a while.

The sound of the pipa in Chen Wanniang's hand gradually slowed down. The second chapter of "The Story of Yingying" finally came to an end. It's not really cute, but I put my hand against my teeth and think slowly."

"Your Majesty, I have finished singing."

Chen Wanniang pursed her lips and looked at Zhu Qiyu with some expectation.

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said, "It sounds good."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chen Wanniang smiled instantly, such a simple compliment was enough to make Chen Wanniang happy for a long time.

There are many kinds of boats on the Qinhuai River, but they can be roughly divided into two types: one is the big boat.The second is the boat.

The hatch of the big ship is wide and can accommodate 30 to [-] people. The window panes are quite finely carved, which makes people feel soft and delicate.

The red and blue glass is reflected in the window pane, and there is also cloisonné enamel on the glass, with delicate patterns on it, which is also quite pleasing to the eye.

Calligraphy, painting and smooth mahogany furniture are displayed inside the ship, and the tabletops are all inlaid with cold marble surfaces.

The boat is called Qibanzi, which can only accommodate two or three people. The front of the cabin of Qibanzi is a part of the deck, with a curved roof on it, and the two sides are surrounded by sparse railings to prevent people from falling into the water. Two rattan lounge chairs.

Lying on the rattan chair of Qibanzi, you can talk about the sky, look far away, talk about the past, and take a closer look. You can look at the river houses on both sides of the bank, and you can also look up at the starry sky, with the universe in your heart.

There are also rattan chairs on the big boat, but they feel more elegant on the small boat.

Where is Zhu Qiyu?
Zhu Qiyu is in Meixiang Tower.

He hadn't boarded the boat yet. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty was always more or less taboo, such as the Qianjin Gate in Jinan City, such as this painting boat.

Whether it was King Xiaoming who died in Shenjiang, Guazhou, Ming Wuzong who fell into the water twice and died without any heirs, or Zhu Youxiao who fell into the water for two years and died of a painful illness.

Zhu Qiyu didn't go into the water, so he sat upstairs in Meixiang.

Zhu Qiyu pretended not to understand and asked: "That sentence, if you share the mandarin tent with Miss Passionate, how can you be willing to fold the quilt and make the bed? What should I do?"

In Yingying's biography, Zhang Sheng said this sentence to Cui Yingying's maid, Hongniang, to the effect that he was reluctant to get out of bed and made the bed.

The joy of the bed, the reluctance to make the bed, is the truest portrayal.

Chen Wanniang pursed her lips, gritted her silver teeth, straightened her body, and said softly, "Your Majesty!"

Wu Nong's voice was soft and waxy, full of anticipation, shyness, and endless longing, and wishing to go back to the palace immediately, back to the couch!

"I'm not willing to fold the quilt and make the bed." Zhu Qiyu said with a smile as he watched the countless painting boats gathered downstairs.

"What is the meaning of the silver-shaped pewter tip?" Zhu Qiyu continued to ask.

Chen Wanniang was taken aback, this is a line from "The Story of Yingying", it is a joke about men's work, which is not useful.

She coquettishly blushed, and said in a low voice: "It's completely different from your majesty's steel and iron bones. Your majesty asked questions knowingly and deliberately shamed my family."

Chen Wanniang finally knew that His Majesty was teasing her.

Chen Wanniang finally begged for mercy, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, when you get back, please tease the slave family again. If you continue talking, the slave family may make a fool of yourself."

"Does Your Majesty drink tea or have some snacks?" Chen Wanniang finally began to change the subject, and she might lose her composure if she continued.

Zhu Qiyu shook his head and said calmly: "If you don't drink or eat, don't ask me in the future."

Chen Wanniang shivered, and said tremblingly: "The slave's order."

Although His Majesty's words were calm, they were full of evil spirits.

"You stay here well, if you feel bored, let Tiqi take you back to the palace." Zhu Qiyu stood up, all the guests had already entered the venue, and the good show had begun.

Zhu Qiyu walked out of the small box and came to the railing. Yu Qian, Xing'an and Lu Zhong were all waiting on the railing, looking down.

Yu Qian glanced at the wing room and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, everyone downstairs is here."

The man in the Jiawu room was surnamed Zhao and named Zhao Wuyan. He was from Wuxi and he was named Pinghaiwang. He had more than [-] two-masted merchant ships and seventeen three-masted ships under his command. He seemed richer than Wei Guogong Xu Chengzong.

The man in Wuyinfang was surnamed Xiao, and his name was Xiao Jingtang. He was from Lanling. He had thousands of flat-bottomed water boats and almost monopolized the water transportation from Nanjing to Xuzhou.

Zhao Wuyan said loudly: "Grandpa Huang is scared!"

Zhu Qiyu was taken aback for a moment, why was she so scared?

Zhu Qiyu asked cheerfully and loudly: "Zhao Chuanwang, the emperor's grandfather issued an imperial decree to let us live in peace, isn't it afraid, I feel annoyed."

"No, no, no, you're wrong."

Zhao Wuyan shook his hand and said: "Grandpa Huang ordered it because he was afraid!"

"Recently, because there are so many copper coins in the market, the price of coal has increased by [-]%, the price of grain has increased by [-]%, and the price of meat has doubled!"

"It is precisely because of fear that Grandpa Huang made the decree. What we want is right in front of us!"

Zhu Qiyu tilted his head and asked: "Yu Shaobao, is there any compromise in my edict?"

Yu Qian shook his head. He suddenly thought of Gu Yao's past. Back then, His Majesty reprimanded the Metropolitan Procuratorate not to violate the curfew. As a result, the three of Gu Yao disobeyed the imperial decree and were beheaded at Caishikou by His Majesty for disobeying the decree.

The above is an example, but these people don't seem to understand that His Majesty's purpose is to warn, not to compromise.

The capital is still too far away.

"Some people always think that having a head on the neck is redundant." Yu Qian looked at the people gathered in the audience and said helplessly.

Zhao Wuyan said loudly: "Tomorrow, we will release the last batch of copper coins! The price of materials and department stores will fly into the sky!"

"At that time, let's go to petition to reopen the Advisory Council, reduce sea tax and reduce customs clearance!"

Hearing this, Lu Zhong finally couldn't bear it anymore, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, let's do it, Jingtai Tongbao will enter the city in the future!"

Yu Qian bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, during the Tang-Wu Revolution, King Wu of Zhou, Ji Fake, King Zhou of Yin and Shang, died two years later. King Cheng of Zhou passed away, and Boqin was made Duke of Lu."

"Before Boqin went to Lu State, King Cheng of Zhou told Boqin about governing the country."

"King Cheng of Zhou said: If there is literature but no military, the ruler cannot be overwhelmed. If there is martial arts but no literature, the ruler will be afraid and not close to him. Civil and martial arts go hand in hand. Prestige makes villains fearful, and virtue makes the people close."

"Bo Qinbai took the order to go to the state of Lu, perform Zhou rituals and rule the state of Lu."

"It's the so-called: If a husband has literature but no martial arts, he can't be intimidated; if he has martial arts but no literature, the people will be afraid of not being close to him; if he has both civil and military skills, he will achieve might and virtue."

"Once you have achieved mighty virtue, the people will obey you, you will be innocent, and you will be clever, and those who advise you will get in. Loyalty and trustworthiness are like beasts."

"Your Majesty, do it!"

The translation of Yu Qian's words is: You can no longer hesitate, you must punch hard!
Zhu Qiyu nodded and said: "Lu Zhong, go ahead, everyone present will not be missed."

Lu Zhong said loudly: "The minister receives the decree!"

Zhao Wuyan was still talking loudly, while Zhu Qiyu shouted with a smile on his face: "What if the emperor sends Tiqi to arrest us?"

Zhao Wuyan obviously heard Zhu Qiyu's shout, his face was surprised, then he shook his head and said: "We didn't do anything! Why did Grandpa Huang arrest us?"

"Besides, this matter is confidential, how does Grandpa Huang know?"

Zhu Qiyu shook his head, and replied helplessly: "But aren't we disobeying the imperial decree?"

"Using the people's livelihood as a bargaining chip to blackmail His Majesty and the court, isn't this against the decree?"

"Your Majesty has issued a decree, no hoarding, no speculation."

Zhao Wuyan immediately shook his head and shouted loudly: "We are pleading with the emperor! What is an anti-decree? You are talking nonsense! Did we do something illegal?"

"If Grandpa Huang arrests us like this and puts us to death, that would be a breach of trust in the world, a violation of moral principles, and he would be the lord of subjugation!"

Zhu Qiyu was taken aback for a moment, did he become the king of subjugation again?
Zhu Qiyu saw Lu Zhong leading Tianzi Tiqi and thousands of Jinyiwei to surround the entire Meixiang Building, and saw Tao Jin appearing not far away with two four-hundred-stone ships.

The closing operation finally started.

A series of loud arrows rose from the ground, shot straight into the sky with the sound of whistles, and exploded in the air!
The fireworks bloomed in the air and fell slowly.

Chen Wanniang looked at the fireworks in full bloom outside the window, her eyes were blurred, and His Majesty was standing outside in the midst of the fireworks.

"Tiqi handles the case, everyone hugs their heads and squats down!"

"Swords have no eyes, guns have no heart!"

"Hold your head and squat down!"

Countless Tiqi began to rush in from the gates of Meixiang Tower, and began to arrest them, and Lu Zhong personally brought the two Tianzi Tiqi to the pier.

After the sound, the whole Meixiang Building was like a frying pan, with screams and hurried running everywhere, but without exception, these people were all blocked in Meixiang Building.

Some people wanted to leave by boat, but just as they were about to untie the anchor rope, the cannons and blunderbuss on the warship were all aimed at the painted boats.

"Everyone squatting down with their heads in their hands! The firecrackers are ruthless!" Tao Jin did not load the lead, but fired an empty gun into the sky.

Zhu Qiyu looked at Zhao Wuyan who was at a loss, smiled and shouted to Zhao Wuyan: "You call me a king of subjugation every day, you know that I am not a good person, so why do you want to make trouble?"

When Zhao Wuyan heard the word "Zhen", his eyes widened immediately, and he shouted dully: "You...you..."

Lu Zhong pressed Zhao Wuyan's head, and said helplessly: "What are you, do you understand the rules, call your majesty!"

"take away!"

The fireworks fell slowly, and all the people in the Meixiang Building were arrested.

　Today is still the third to fourth watch, ask for a monthly ticket! ! ! !Aww! ! !
