If I fail to overcome the tribulation, I can only return to the Ming Dynasty and become a prince.

Chapter 28 Prince Xiaoyao who is not the emperor
After getting the map, Xia Yuanji couldn't wait to get off the boat and rushed back to the Ministry of Finance with the map. He wanted to find someone to copy the map.

Watching Xia Yuanji go ashore and leave, Zhu Zhanquan returned to his previous leisurely mood of fishing and listening to music. A fishing rod made of green bamboo looked so free and comfortable in his hand.

Zhu Zhanzhen's appearance undoubtedly made Zhu Gaochi a little disgusted, and he couldn't help scolding him: "Bad boy, your grandfather told us to discuss a way to implement the reforms you mentioned. If you don't have one, If you decide to beat me later, I won’t stop you!"

"Father, even if you want to stop you, do you have the ability?" Zhu Zhanju looked at his fat father speechlessly, not optimistic that he could stop Zhu Di: "As for the issue of implementing reforms, you are not in charge of it, dad." , mainly to discuss with various ministers? I will only tell you what to do, as for how to do it, that is your own business.

If I am not in my position, I will not pursue my political affairs, and the imperial court has not given me an official position. I can tell you what to do, which is enough to be worthy of the imperial family's annual salary. The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers! "

"Why, I'm here to ask for a reward from your father?" Why couldn't Zhu Gaochi understand what Zhu Zhanqun meant, but he just shook his head slightly and said, "I'm not in a hurry to ask for a reward from you. Your grandpa is also There must be an arrangement, let's wait until this thing is done, now go to your grandfather to ask for reward, we will definitely not get anything good with his temper."

After hearing this, the expression on Zhu Zhanchun's face did not change. He changed to a comfortable position and lay on the chair, closing his eyes: "Don't worry, dad, you will definitely be the emperor in the future. Remember When the time comes, just seal a blessed place for me so that I can live comfortably for the rest of my life."

Zhu Zhanquan's performance at this moment highlighted his lack of ambition, and he did not forget to add: "I like places with beautiful scenery, with mountains and rivers. When the time comes, I will build a house on the mountain. It’s time to retreat to the mountains and forests.”

"Your boy knows how to enjoy things better than your father and I!" Zhu Zhanchun's words made Zhu Gaochi burst into laughter. He raised his hand and nodded a few times. Zhu Zhanchun said: "Let your father and I do the hard work together. Qingfu you." You want to enjoy it all by yourself? Didn't you consider your father?"

"Otherwise? Dad, can you still pass the throne to me in the future instead of to my elder brother?" Zhu Zhanyu asked a question that was very difficult for Zhu Gaochi to answer.

Faced with this problem, Zhu Gaochi also understood that this was indeed impossible, but he couldn't help but asked Zhu Zhanyu: "Why, you don't want me to make you the prince after I ascend the throne? What if you can carry out this reform?" , when the time comes, your father and I will have something to say even if I depose Chang Lixian, right?"

"Come on, what are the benefits of being an emperor? Grandpa would wake up earlier than a chicken every day, work more than a donkey, and go to bed later than a dog! Grandpa wouldn't be much better, if he hadn't passed the blame to you. This prince, do you think he is thinking about the Northern Expedition? On the contrary, it is better for me to be an idle prince. As long as I don't rebel, I can do whatever I want." Zhu Zhanqi did not take Zhu Gaochi's words seriously, and he was someone who planned to practice cultivation again. , how could he really become the emperor?

As long as a Jindan Zhenren doesn't die accidentally, living for 800 years is easier than eating and drinking. If he really becomes the emperor, he will have to deal with government affairs every day, which will be annoying to death. Now, what kind of immortality are you still cultivating?

"Why can't you say a good word in your mouth? That's the position of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, so why is it that no one wants it in your mouth?" Zhu Gaochi looked at his second son with admiration, but to some extent He was still a little worried, or the royal family could never be reassured about this kind of thing: "Do you really have no idea about the throne?" Zhu Zhanchen really had no interest in becoming the emperor, he was sure He replied to Zhu Gaochi: "No, my family knows my own affairs. If I want to be emperor, I will definitely be impatient to get up early every day to go to court to approve memorials. If I have that time, I might as well watch the maids dancing and be a debauched and immoral emperor."

"Okay, okay, now that you've said that, I won't force you to do anything, but your grandfather asked me to preside over the plan to implement reforms. Don't let me run away. Come with me to the Wenhua Palace tomorrow to meet some ministers. , we will discuss the countermeasures before letting you go out to play." Zhu Gaochi looked at his son and did not force him too much, but he still made a note in his mind to hide Zhu Zhanyu from doing things in the future, so as not to waste his talents.

Zhu Zhanjun still didn't care about this, but he took out another fold from his sleeve and handed it to Zhu Gaochi again.

"What is this? Isn't it another coupon to trouble your grandfather?" Zhu Gaochi joked, but he still took the coupon and started reading it.

While Zhu Gaochi was looking at the brochure, Zhu Zhanquan's fishing rod started to move. While he reached out to hold the fishing rod and raised the hook, he also explained to Zhu Gaochi: "This is the way to get rid of the treasure banknotes and get the money to change the banknote method." , Dad, just say that you came up with it yourself. The implementation of reforms by the imperial court does not happen overnight, let’s start with the money matter."

"Since you have such a good idea, why didn't you tell Xia Shangshu just now? You had to use a map to fool people." Zhu Gaochi glanced through the contents of the brochure and was a little confused about why Zhu Zhanqun didn't tell Xia Yuanji just now. Confuse.

"Tell him Xia Laoji? How can he think about me?" Zhu Zhanquan took the bitten fish off the hook and threw it into the fish basket. He put on the bait again and said with a smile: " The gold and silver mountains of the Japanese country must be captured by the Ming Dynasty. This can solve the financial and taxation problems of the Ming Dynasty for at least 200 years in the future. Therefore, I must encourage the court to send troops to conquer the Japanese country and completely capture the entire Japanese country.

As for this excerpt, you should know how much effort it takes to go on a cross-sea expedition, right?Even if the court starts preparations now, it will only end up like Qian Yuan without having three to five years to prepare. "

"So you just gave this method to your father and asked me to hand it over?" Zhu Gaochi put the fold away again, his worry was relieved from his fat round face, and he smiled again, and threaded the bait with his fat hands. After throwing the fishhook out, he happily picked up the spiritual tea that Zhu Zhanqun took out and sipped it in small sips.

"What else? If I come up with all the ideas, won't it seem like you, the prince, are incompetent?" Zhu Zhanjuan closed his eyes again and shouted into the cabin: "Sing a song that is looser and faster."

Following Zhu Zhankun's words, the sound of drums and Wu Nong's soft singing soon filled the cabin.
