Jingtai Fenghua

Chapter 461 I don’t want you to die
Zhu Qiyu asked Lin Cunde to sit down, and Lin Cunde sat down!

"We'll chat later. You don't have to stand up or hold your hands. It's just chatting. There aren't so many rules!" Zhu Qiyu continued to say to Lin Cunde!
"Yes!" Lin Cunde nodded and said!

Zhu Zhen looked at Zhu Qiyu in surprise!
Zhu Qiyu noticed that the water in the small kettle next to him was boiling, so he started to make tea. At the same time, he said: "Brother Huang, you are right. Without Shou Ming, I would not be able to hold this position. Without Shou Ming's strong support, without Shou Ming and his father-in-law." Although I was desperately guarding him, I would have been killed a long time ago!
In the battle of Hequ, the father-in-law fought against Wala with the determination to die. Before leaving, he told the generals that I had treated him well and the time had come to repay him. He resolutely led 20,000 cavalry to fight against Wala's cavalry head-on. I once thought, I won, a big victory!

The battle of Shanhaiguan, hum, actually we have known your intention for a long time. Your target is not Shanhaiguan, but Liaodong Town, because Cao Yi is in Liaodong Town, and Cao Yi was promoted by you. If you can control Liaodong, you can Send troops south to Nanjing and issue orders in Nanjing!

At the beginning, I asked Shouming, could Liaodong be saved? Shouming said yes?
I ask, there are tens of thousands of garrison troops at Shanhaiguan, how can we save them?
Shou Ming said, kill them!

I didn't believe it at the beginning, and all the officials in the capital didn't believe it. I was already ready to abdicate. Moreover, many civil servants were also waiting and watching, and many civil servants moved all their families to the south!

They are all ready to flee Beijing!

In less than half a month, Shou Ming completely wiped out Shanhaiguan's 50,000-watt army, and at the same time sent his troops to march north, heading straight for Liaodong Town! You also know what happened next. Even the Walas who were killed couldn’t escape!
The two of them fought two battles. In these two battles, everyone thought they would lose. However, the two of them won, which also crushed your hopes! "Zhu Qiyu finished brewing the tea, then began to pour it into the fair cups, divide the tea, and brought the teacups to Zhu Zhen and Lin Cunde!
After Zhu Zhen heard this, he looked at Zhu Qiyu!
"Brother, do you know how powerful our country is now?" Zhu Qiyu looked at Zhu Zhen and asked!

Zhu Zhen still looked at Zhu Qiyu, and then shook his head!

"The national treasury now has grain, cloth and other materials. When combined, there are almost 30 million taels of silver. When the internal funds are converted, there are still 20 million taels of silver! In addition, the grain stored in various warehouses is enough for the people of Ming Dynasty to work without farming. Eat for a year and a half!

All the corvées were divided into acres. Those who owned farmland paid taxes, but those who did not have farmland did not need to pay taxes!

Zhu Zhen squinted at Zhu Qiyu, wondering if Zhu Qiyu was telling the truth?

The taxes on business in Ming Dynasty are very low, and you know that!
Brother, I have been on the throne for more than four years. The Ming Dynasty can be so strong because of my hard work and the support of all the ministers!

If there is a place that I cannot manage, I will distribute the land to the feudal kings! Let those vassal kings guard one side for the Ming Dynasty forever! "Zhu Qiyu looked at Zhu Zhen confidently and said!

"I have been the emperor for more than four years, and I have never dared to slack off for a day. I originally wanted to go out to inspect and see how the people were living? But I was worried about bringing a burden to the people!" Zhu Qiyu sat there and said with a wry smile. !
"Well, you did a good job, better than big brother!" Zhu Zhen leaned there and said with a smile!
Zhu Qiyu raised his head and looked at Zhu Zhen, and then said after a while: "Don't seek death like this. I also want you to see how powerful the Ming Dynasty will be under my governance. Perhaps, when my territory is large enough, I will I will give you a place and let you go out and become a prince!"

In the next few years, I will also conquer Japan and other powerful countries in other places!
Emperor Taizong, five expeditions to Mobei!
I want to include all the land around Daming into my territory of Daming!

Therefore, now our people, the Ming Dynasty, have had their taxes reduced a lot, and their commerce has begun to develop!
This year, our Ming Dynasty's commercial taxes have increased threefold, reaching 7 million taels, and it is expected to increase next year!

Also, since the implementation of the New Deal, there has been no rebellion among the people in our Ming Dynasty!
Moreover, this year, the floods in our country are the least since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. The rainfall in various places this year is more than in previous years!
Because our country, Ming Dynasty, is currently building river embankments. All the big rivers in Ming Dynasty must have river embankments rebuilt!
Also, all roads in Ming Dynasty must be rebuilt, and all bridges in Ming Dynasty must be built new!
My Ming Dynasty has abolished corvee service, completely abolished corvee service, and all places that require manpower are hired by the court at market prices!

"Now, our Ming Dynasty has strong ships and powerful artillery. When our Ming Dynasty Ocean Navy develops, we will definitely go overseas to seize some territory. Those feudal kings, I will also give them land enfeoffments. The same goes for you. You Give me a Ming Dynasty, and I will give you a piece of land so that you can live a peaceful life! Don't bother yourself!
I don’t regret what happened to Concubine Sun. Moreover, Concubine Sun deserved to die. If it weren’t for him, we wouldn’t be two brothers. Before my father’s death, Concubine Sun’s name was moved in and out of the list of burials many times. If it weren’t for my brother Nian. Young, Concubine Sun is probably on the list of companions. Think about it, if the father really valued Concubine Sun, would he be so hesitant? "Zhu Qiyu stared at Zhu Zhen and said!

Zhu Zhen was completely stunned at this moment. Those words just hit him directly!
He thought that the Ming Dynasty would be good under the governance of Zhu Qiyu. After all, Zhu Qiyu needed to do something, but he did not expect that the Ming Dynasty would be so powerful!

Zhu Zhen didn't speak, just looked at Zhu Qiyu!
"Live well. No matter what, I am still good to you and those nephews. If it were other emperors, you would have been killed long ago. It's not like no one advised me! Two years ago, I Maybe I don’t dare to kill you, but now, if I kill you, no minister will say anything! The people will not have any objections! However, I still don’t want you to die now. If you die, I will. I am alone and have no close brothers!" Zhu Qiyu looked at Zhu Zhen and said again!

Zhu Qiyu was also afraid that Zhu Zhen would die at this time. If he died, the history books would not know how to record him? Although Zhu Zhen was indeed ill when he came back, this year Taifei Sun died, and not long after, Zhu Zhen died again. Even if it really had nothing to do with him, others would not believe it!
On the contrary, if Zhu Zhen died a few years later, then everyone would think that both Princess Sun and Zhu Zhen died of natural causes and had nothing to do with Zhu Zhen!

That's why Zhu Qiyu brought Lin Cunde over today to persuade Zhu Zhen, just because he didn't want Zhu Zhen to seek death at this time!
Of course, if Zhu Zhen really seeks death, then Zhu Qiyu cannot stop him! But Zhu Qiyu is not really afraid of history books!
As long as he serves as the emperor, he believes that even if he usurps the throne, the history books will not have too many negative comments about him!

After all, Ming Dynasty has become powerful in his own hands!

These are enough to serve the people!

"Okay!" Zhu Zhen heard what Zhu Qiyu said about enfeoffment and nodded!

"Be more restrained. Those beautiful girls were sent here to chat with you. They all come from scholarly families. They can talk to you about the past and the present and prevent you from being bored. They are not meant to make you sing and sing day and night!" Zhu Qiyu continued to persuade Zhu Zhen!

Zhu Zhen nodded again!

"Drink tea, it's cold!" Zhu Qiyu greeted Zhu Zhen and then made a gesture of invitation to Lin Cunde!
Lin Cunde picked up the tea cup and drank it in one gulp. As soon as he put down the tea cup, Zhu Qiyu gave Lin Cunde more tea, and Zhu Zhen also drank it in one gulp!
After putting down the tea cup, he asked: "Can the children come to see me?"

"Now?" Zhu Qiyu looked at Zhu Zhen and asked with a frown!

Zhu Zhen also smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, let's wait for a while. I haven't seen them for a long time!"

"Okay, let them come over and spend a day with you every season from now on!" Zhu Qiyu said to Zhu Zhen.

Zhu Zhen nodded!

Zhu Qiyu held the teacup himself, took a sip, and said: "Actually, I really want you to go out and see what will happen to the country of the Ming Dynasty under my governance? But, now that you are guilty, you can't Let you go out in a few years. After I have settled the matters here, I will let you go out and take a look! "

What surprised Lin Cunde was that Zhu Zhen suddenly spoke at this moment and said: "You bastard, you're alright, you keep showing off in front of me? I know you handled it well, but at that time, if it hadn't been for the defeat of Tumu Fort, I wouldn't have done anything. Worse than you!"

Lin Cunde looked at Zhu Zhen in surprise, then looked at Zhu Qiyu, and found that Zhu Qiyu was completely lifeless!

"No worse than me? Do you know? I have done something that is a great initiative that has never been done by emperors of all dynasties. It can ensure that our Ming Dynasty will continue for hundreds of more years!" Zhu Qiyu looked at Zhu Zhen proudly and said !

Zhu Zhen looked at Zhu Qiyu with a frown. What a great initiative?
"I can't tell you now. If I tell you, it will be leaked and it will be troublesome. Anyway, I will let the people of Ming Dynasty have land for planting!" Zhu Qiyu continued to say proudly!
"Huh!" Zhu Zhen snorted coldly!
"It's true!" Lin Cunde said from the side!
"What's your idea?" Zhu Zhen turned to look at Lin Cunde and asked, Lin Cunde nodded!
"It has not been verified by time, but you know it can last for hundreds of more years?" Zhu Zhen said with a look of disbelief!
"Brother, just say that since you came to the throne, there has been no rebellion among the people for a few years at most, regardless of the size of the rebellion?" Zhu Qiyu looked at Zhu Zhen confidently and asked!

Zhu Zhen thought about it for a while, shook his head and said, "Basically every year!"

"Really? But now, it has been almost three years since the people rebelled, not even the small rebellions. The people live and work in peace and contentment. Brother, I did it!" Zhu Qiyu smiled and raised three fingers, extremely proud!

"In three years, there has been no small rebellion?" Zhu Zhen looked at Zhu Zhen in disbelief and asked!

"Yes, three years!" Zhu Qiyu nodded affirmatively.
