The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 393 Zhu Yuanzhang's Forgiveness
After experiencing so many things with Dasun, how could Zhu Yuanzhang not see Dasun's thoughts.

Just looking at some simple descriptions in this charter, Zhu Yuanzhang knew the main direction of Dasun's implementation.

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang knew better than anyone else the financial burden of the post station on the Ming Dynasty, but he knew the importance of the post station and absolutely did not allow any lack.

From a certain point of view, the post station is an extension of imperial power.

The place where there are post stations is called the real territory of Ming Dynasty.

Even if it costs a lot of money every year to maintain the operation of the entire station, Zhu Yuanzhang will not hesitate.

In fact, up to now, Zhu Yuanzhang is also worried about the post station. He is very worried that the descendant will not be able to do it, ignore the post station, or even cut it off and cancel the post station.

Zhu Yuanzhang's worries actually became reality in the late Ming Dynasty.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Chongzhen canceled and merged many institutions in order to save the court's expenses. He believed that the post station institution was dispensable, so he ordered it to be removed.

The revocation of the post office made Li Zicheng lose a job where he could eat and wait for death. Li Zicheng was unemployed in this way, and he still owed a lot of debts. He had to rebel in order to continue to live.

In fact, strictly speaking, Li Zicheng's rebellion was just a manifestation. The most important thing is that because many generations of Ming emperors ignored the inn and kept reducing personnel and expenses, the capital's control over the region began to decline.

If it had been before, or if other people had brought forward the post station civilian use, the only thing in return would be Zhu Yuanzhang's fury, or even his execution.

But when Dasun brought it up, Zhu Yuanzhang would ponder the pros and cons.

It has to be said that these things Zhu Ying did after entering the palace had a great impact on the entire Ming Dynasty.

Regardless of whether it is military, political, or civilian, there have been great changes.

These changes are like spring breeze turning into rain, gradually infiltrating, leaving aside the localities for the time being, as far as the capital is concerned, it has already turned the world upside down.

With so many successful cases ahead, this will also prevent Zhu Yuanzhang from being beaten to death with a stick while facing the seemingly absurd behavior of his grandson.

When Zhu Ying heard the old man's question, surprise flashed in his eyes.

The current Ming Dynasty is undoubtedly the number one in the world in terms of comprehensive national strength.

But the current Zhu Yuanzhang, as far as the Ming Dynasty is concerned, can be said to be the only one.

After the abolition of the prime minister system in the court, the destruction of Hu Weiyong and other officials left the entire court with no cronies who could resist Zhu Yuanzhang's decree.

In the army, the famous founding generals who used to be old and dead.

Sapphire is considered to be of the new generation, not the group that followed Zhu Yuanzhang in the first place.

Let alone the common people, or the gentry and landlords.

Expelling the Tartars and restoring the Central Plains, such feats can be sung throughout the ages. The new landlord class who have undergone the uprising are all supporters of the interests of Ming and Zhu Yuanzhang.

Even if the gentry and aristocratic families in the Jiangnan area have resentment in their hearts, under the circumstances of strong taxation, relocation of wealthy people, and serious damage to their vitality, they are at best doing some small tricks secretly.

Zhu Ying is very clear.

No matter how big the reform is, as long as it is supported by the old man's prestige, it will definitely be implemented.

After thinking for a while, Zhu Ying replied:
"Grandpa, after checking the financial expenditure of the Ministry of Households, my grandson found that the burden of the entire post station on Daming is very serious, even more than half of the military's salary expenditure."

"But Sun'er is also very clear in his heart that the post station is absolutely important and indispensable to our Daming."

"As far as the current situation is concerned, the expenses of the post station can indeed be afforded, but my grandson is worried that if the Ming Dynasty encounters natural and man-made disasters in the future, or other problems."

"Which unworthy descendant of the future generations, with a hot head, cuts out the entire post station and cancels it. Wouldn't it be self-destructing my great Ming foundation?"

"So my grandson has been thinking, if the post station can be like the military household system established by my grandfather, it can make up for the money and expenses by itself, and even have a surplus."

"Then the descendants of future generations should only pay attention to this, and not worry about ignoring it."

Zhu Yuanzhang felt very relieved when he heard this.

As the saying goes, be prepared and avoid danger before it happens.

From Zhu Yuanzhang's point of view, the current Ming Dynasty is already very good. It used to be short of money to spend, but now Dasun has basically solved this problem.

The value of Daming treasure banknotes is not constantly rising. According to the current situation, it will be the same price as gold and silver in a short time.

Dasun can continue to explore the future of the Ming Dynasty, which shows that he has a long-term vision.

If you have a grandson like this, what can you ask for.

However, as an emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally would not agree easily, and had to mention a few words.

"Dasun should know that the income of the post station is nothing more than the road pass and the transportation of goods, and the biggest profit is only the businessman."

"Businessmen don't do production, if the world follows suit, how can they stabilize the country."

Hearing the old man's words, Zhu Ying thought for a moment and said, "Reinvigorate business with heavy industry."

"Currently, the troubles of businessmen are hoarding goods, speculating, and trying to get something for nothing. The grandson remade the law of the Ming Dynasty and established the civil law of the Ming Dynasty."

"Anyone who disrupts the market, drives up prices, and seeks profiteering is an offense and shall be punished with a fine and hard labor."

"Commerce should be effectively guided. In the future commercial construction, it should focus on industrial factories, open houses and run privately, and be responsible for profits and losses."

Zhu Yuanzhang fell into deep thought when he heard this.

Since ancient times, there have been thousands of people in the Central Plains, including scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen.

What Dasun is doing now is to support industry and commerce.

For Zhu Ying, it is natural to know that this is the inevitable rise of a great power, but for Zhu Yuanzhang, it is a new road with no future in sight.

"Old brother, you also come here with us, what do you think about this matter?"

While thinking about it, Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Tang He on the background board, and asked casually.

Tang He was quite speechless when he heard this, but also a little shocked.

Tang He knew the nature of Zhu Yuanzhang best. He hated businessmen since he was a child, and wished he could kill them all.

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the measures to suppress merchants have been very clear.

Now that Taisun proposed to revitalize the business, His Majesty did not get furious, but instead thought about the possibility.

This is another queen horse.

There is some comfort in my heart, at least His Majesty will not be as bloodthirsty as before, and there will be people around who can dissuade him.

It's just that these words must not be said, so he cupped his hands and said: "The old minister listened to His Majesty talking about business affairs with the grandson, and I just feel confused, half understanding."

"Perhaps the old minister is old and his mind is a little confused. I really don't know how to answer this matter."

Hearing these words, Zhu Yuanzhang originally wanted to reprimand him a few words, but seeing Tang He's old state, and recalling the childhood memories we had just chatted with, he felt no regrets.

Sighing: "Hey, we are all old, now this world should be the world of young people."

"Big grandson, just do it according to your own ideas. It doesn't matter if it's right or wrong. Even if it's wrong, there's still time to change it later."

Hearing this, Tang He was quite speechless.

When he was in the Qianqing Palace just now, who was still showing off that he was still young.

In retrospect, the difference is only two years, but the difference in this body is more than ten years.

The self ten years ago was also so fierce.

It's a pity that the sons died in battle one by one, leaving two only grandsons.

Now the entire Tang family has no successors, and my broken body is already powerless.

Thinking of this, Tang He looked sad.

Looking at Tang He's sad expression, Zhu Yuanzhang thought he felt the same way. Thinking of the current situation of Tang's family, he felt a little more sympathy for this old brother who once fought side by side.

"Old brother, your eldest grandson is almost the age of the crown now. Look at our side, if there is a granddaughter you like, let's get married again."

Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and said.

Hearing this, Tang He looked pleasantly surprised, and quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty Long En."

Tang He did not expect that there would be such an unexpected joy today.

In the early years, Tang He's eldest daughter married Zhu Tan, the tenth prince.

Compared with Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, and Zhu Yunqi, the ten prince Zhu Tan's reputation is very small, and there are not many historical records.

But in fact, Zhu Tan's biological mother is Concubine Guo Ning, who has been favored by Zhu Yuanzhang since he was a child.

Concubine Guo Ning gave birth to two daughters before, and Zhu Tan was not born until the third year of Hongwu. At that time, there was no eldest grandson Zhu Xiongying, and the prince Zhu Biao was already 16 years old and crowned, so he could stand alone.

Naturally, Zhu Yuanzhang loves this youngest son much more.

Empress Ma has no relatives from her mother's family. In the harem, if one talks about the power of her mother's family, Concubine Guo Ning is naturally the number one.

Her son is loved in every possible way.

When Zhu Tan was only two months old, he was canonized as the king of Lu and rewarded with fiefdoms.

He has lived up to expectations since he was a child. He is not only talented, but also handsome. He loves reading and painting.

At the age of 14, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Tang and his eldest daughter to marry him.

In October of the same year of their marriage, Zhu Tan and Tang Shi went to Yanzhou, Shandong Province together.

When he became a vassal, Zhu Yuanzhang also deliberately promoted Yanzhou to Yanzhou Prefecture, which has 23 counties in four prefectures under its jurisdiction. Among the six prefectures in Shandong, the counties under its jurisdiction are second only to Jinan Prefecture, and two counties are missing.

It's just that the young Zhu Tan didn't have the ability to distinguish right from wrong, so he was naturally protected in the palace, but in the feudal land, he listened to alchemists' slander, obsessed with alchemy, sensuality, and abandoned government affairs.

They wantonly waste money, waste people and money, and provide all kinds of conveniences for alchemists, just to refine the elixir of immortality.

After taking a large amount of elixir, Zhu Tan's body gradually declined, and many side effects occurred.

Not only did Zhu Tan not notice it, but he asked the alchemist for the secret recipe.

The alchemist was forced to come up with only one folk prescription, but this folk prescription can only be practiced by using the private parts of ninety-nine boys as medicine.

No matter how absurd Zhu Tan was, he would not dare to abuse the law in this matter.

But when Tang knew about it, he was desperate to save her husband, and appointed his cronies to arrest the boy.

Daming naturally favored sons over daughters, and many boys were often the only seedlings inherited from the family. In less than two months, the matter had already gone to the capital Zhu Yuanzhang.

Officials from the Criminal Department of the Ming Capital Division went there, and Jin Yiwei conducted a thorough investigation in secret, but in just a few days, the truth came to light.

Such a bad thing was actually done by Aizi, Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, and ordered to punish the crime, so that he could be punished.

It's just that Concubine Guo Ning cried and pleaded for mercy, and thinking that Zhu Tan was also confused by an adulterer for a while, and Zhu Yuanzhang was soft-hearted, so she was punished with Kun.

Kun punishment is actually to shave off the head of the criminal, which is more insulting in nature.

Of course, as the ten princes, and even more so, the feudal lord, he naturally wouldn't shave all his hair off, which almost meant cutting his hair to replace the head.

But Tang Shi was not so lucky, even though her father was Tang He.

In the end, he was sentenced to Ling Chi because he was too vile and was the mastermind.

Zhu Tan has been taking elixir for a long time, the toxin has already penetrated into the bone, and the medicine stone is useless.

In the 22nd year of Hongwu, on December 26, Zhu Tan, who was only 20 years old, passed away.

Although his death was absurd, he was Concubine Guo Ning's only son after all. At this time, Concubine Guo Ning was already old and no longer able to bear children. After pleading, he was buried with the highest standard of the royal family.

Zhu Tan was fond of piano, chess, calligraphy, calligraphy, ink, paper and inkstone during his lifetime, so Concubine Guo Ning found famous Song Dynasty pianos, ancient piano scores, expensive famous paintings, and a basket full of ancient books as funeral objects.

Zhu Yuanzhang ordered skilled craftsmen to create the Nine Dragons Crown.

As for Tang He, even trusted old brothers, because of Tang, there is no possibility of getting married.

Even more because of Concubine Guo Ning's resentment, although she didn't express it explicitly, the relationship became weaker and weaker.

Zhu Tan was favored without arrogance, and had a good relationship with his brothers, which made it difficult for Tang and his descendants even after Zhu Di won the throne.

Tang He's second daughter married Liao Quan, son of Liao Yongzhong, Marquis of Deqing, the founding hero.

He gave birth to Liao Yong and Liao Yue.

And the teacher of the two is Fang Xiaoru.

Just because of Fang Xiaoru's sentence: So what if you punish my ten clans, Tang and his second daughter were implicated.

Not only was her son killed, but she was also fined as a slave by the Jiaofang Division.

As a result of these factors, even though the Tang family had heirs, they seemed to be forgotten, and no one inherited the title.

Xin Guogong will die from one generation to the next.

During the reign of Emperor Yingzong, Tang and his great-great-grandson Tang Jie requested to inherit the title, and Zhu Qizhen expelled the Tang family on the grounds that there had been no successors for 40 years.

Until meeting the generous and benevolent Emperor Xiaozong Zhu Youtang of the Ming Dynasty, under the operation of many parties, Tang Shaozong, the fifth grandson, continued to be the Marquis of Lingbi in the 11th year of Jiajing, allowing hereditary succession.

After the Five Dynasties, it descended to the Qing Dynasty in Nanming.

Tang He's surprise was not a matter of getting married, but meant that His Majesty's sentence of getting married again meant that the past grievances would be considered as a thing of the past.

Even Concubine Guo Ning gave the Tang family a chance to make up for it.

After all, from the starting point, although the eldest daughter Tang's behavior is evil, she is still loyal to her husband.

"Get up, it's cold here, don't hurt your body again."

"Those absurd past events in the past, they will pass when they pass."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Tang He who kept kowtowing on the ground, stretched out his hand to help him up and said.

Tang He, who looked up at this time, was already in tears, sobbing choked up.

Zhu Ying winked at Guo Zhong, and Guo Zhong immediately brought the silk handkerchief.

After Tang He wiped it, he bowed and said, "The old minister is rude."

Zhu Yuanzhang patted Tanghe on the shoulder, remembering the old brother's kindness to him in promoting him, and after decades of fighting, he was full of diseases. He was only two years older than himself, and he was already dying.

Can't help sighing: "Take care of your body earlier, we still hope that you will live a few more years."

After the old man and soup left.

Seeing all this, Zhu Ying felt a little sad.

But quickly recovered.

Now with the approval of the old man, then the construction of the entire Daming can be made drastic.

With the sowing of high-yielding crops such as sweet potatoes, cement appeared.

The seeds of industry have already been planted.
