King of Han Dynasty of Ming Dynasty

"Ok?"

"Third brother, do you have anything else to do?"

The sudden change caused Zhu Di to look slightly stunned. He looked at Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui who had stopped and asked in astonishment.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Gaosui reached out and took out a completely sealed letter from his arms. He quickly came to the astonished Emperor Yongle, bowed and handed it over, saying:

"father"

"Here is a letter. If we go to Mobei to fight against the Tatars and Oaras, if the other side is defeated, and our army fails to effectively encircle them, it will give the Tatars and Oaras the opportunity to retreat deep into the grassland."

"You can lead the army to the location given in the letter and encircle it to have a look."

"At that time, it is not certain that unexpected results may be obtained."

Seeing the bulging letters sealed with beeswax on the desk, and listening to Zhu Gaosui's conclusive explanation, Zhu Di was stunned for a while, looking at Zhu Gaosui who was close at hand in disbelief. It was as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight.

Seeing Emperor Yongle who was stunned, Zhu Gaosui did not hesitate and continued:

"If the above had not happened, there would be no need to open this letter."

"Of course, it cannot be opened in advance, nor can it be arranged in the location given in the letter in advance, otherwise it is very likely that the result will be in vain."

The voice just fell.

Emperor Yongle, who was stunned, came back to his senses. A hint of displeasure flashed through his pupils. He looked up and down at Zhu Gaosui for a moment and said:

"No. Third child?"

"Who did you learn this routine and operation from?"

"Also, why do the contents of the letter and the words you just said make us feel so much like a fortune teller and a magic stick?"

As he spoke, he picked up the envelope sealed with beeswax on the desk with great interest, patted it gently, and tapped the table with his left hand, "dong dong dong", and said:

"Who gave you the idea for this matter?"

"What is the basis for the contents of the letter and what you just said?"

The words in the conversation all revealed suspicion and distrust, as well as a hint of disappointment.

But thinking about it, Zhu Gaosui felt relieved.

After all, after all these years, he knew very well what kind of personality he had and what kind of person he made the old man feel.

Such a thing is not something he can do under normal circumstances, so it is completely normal to have doubts about him.

And in his words just now, there was a trace of prediction and direction of the subsequent war situation, and he even marked the places where Oara and the Tatars camped after their retreat in the later period.

In this case, what is inappropriate is the prophet?
The combination of the two things, let alone the old man's suspicion, if the roles of father and son were reversed, I am afraid that his suspicion would be worse than that.

However, Zhu Gaosui did not feel any palpitations or fear in his heart at the old man's displeasure.

There is no other reason.

Because the owner of this letter is not him at all.

In this matter, he was just a messenger.

So he doesn't have to worry at all, nor is he afraid of any responsibilities.

After a short silence, Zhu Gaosui faced the slightly angry Zhu Di without any timidity. With a slight smile on the slightly raised corner of his mouth, he waved his hand and said:

"Dad, please be patient."

"Don't yell at me about this, and don't get angry at me."

"I am not the owner of the letter."

"But the night before we left Yingtian Mansion, the second brother came to my house and handed this letter to me, warning me that if the above situation occurs, I can only open the letter and read the content. If it does not happen, Just let me pretend I don’t know anything and just burn the letter.”

"No."

"You just ordered me to respond to Tianfu's support as quickly as possible and follow the arrangements of the second child and the boss."

"No, I'll give the letter to you first."

When Zhu Di heard this, his half-closed eyes suddenly opened, and he looked him up and down with a suspicious look, but if he thought about giving Zhu Gaosui ten courages, he would not dare to deceive him about this matter.

Afterwards, he looked at the letters placed in front of him, frowning and thinking for a long time.

After a while, he came back to his senses, picked up the letter placed on the desk, played with it with interest for a moment, stuffed it into his arms, and subconsciously asked:
"Is this the only thing I told you?"

"But there is something else. If you think about it carefully, is there anything left behind?"

Zhu Gaosui: "!!!!!!"

ha?
One moment, he said that he was like a magic stick, doubted him, and belittled him as useless. Then he turned around and listened to the second child, and his face changed directly.

Ming Dynasty's famous double standard?

Is it too much to treat them so obviously, so seriously, and not cover up at all?
I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen such shameless people.

This behavior really disgusted Zhu Gaosui. If it weren't for the majesty of Emperor Yongle, he couldn't help but swear and jump up to curse others.

King Zhao Zhu Gaosui, who suppressed the feeling of aggrievedness in his heart, glanced at the old man who was looking at him curiously unhappily. His words unknowingly contained a hint of emotion, and he snorted angrily:

"Gone."

"Just these few words."

"If you are worried, old man, you might as well write a letter yourself and ask the second brother to repeat it to you in the letter."

After hearing this, I noticed the emotion in Zhu Gaosui's words.

Zhu Di also realized instantly that his words were inappropriate, waved his hand at it, and replied with a haha:

"Okay, get out!"

Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui, who was full of grievances, did not dare to say any more when he saw this situation. After all, he was not the second child. He dared to say anything. He secretly broke his heart a few times. In the end, he could only walk out of the tent angrily and return. I packed my things in my tent and prepared to set off tomorrow to respond to Tianfu honestly.

Wait until Zhu Gaosui leaves.

The entire Chinese military camp became quiet instantly.

Zhu Di sat alone behind the table in the tent, leaning on the soft couch, looking at the letters placed in front of him from time to time, his pupils twitching from time to time, and it could be said that there were thousands of thoughts and emotions in his mind.

Have to admit.

The second child is really capable.

The silver mines that had been hidden in the Japanese country for so many years were all pulled out by Lao Er.

As for the dozen or so countries that Emperor Taizu decided not to conquer.

Zhu Di seemed to have thought of something about this, and he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and murmured to himself in a low voice:

"Father."

"If at that time, you had known that Japan had a huge amount of silver mines, would you have been able to sit still?"

"Is there still a so-called country without conquests?" Zhu Di muttered in a low voice for a moment, then reached out and gently rubbed his slightly swollen temples, with a slight smile on his face.

"The king who expands the territory is the king who governs with benevolence."

"No matter who of you two is the king, it will be beneficial and harmless to the Ming Dynasty."

"But...the second child! The second child!"

"Are you really the boss's opponent on this journey to seize the throne?"

"Civil officials have no foundation, but military generals have too much foundation."

"But when it comes to strategy, scheming, tricks, and intrigues."

"That's it! That's it!"

"Let's take a look!"

Ying Tianfu.

With the cooperation of people from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs.

The first batch of refined salt, as white as snow, was pulled by a horse-drawn carriage from the salt fields regulated by the Ming Dynasty to the hands of refined salt dealers across the country.

Those businessmen who have been waiting for a long time and have all the plans ready are waiting to receive the refined salt escorted by the imperial court.

Without any hesitation at all, with lightning speed, he put it into the store in the area he had photographed and sold it.

Over the past few days, the merchants in the auctioned sales areas have been spreading publicity about the sales time and price of the refined salt before the refined salt has arrived.

In the Ming Dynasty, people all over the country were almost all gone. The imperial court was about to launch a refined salt that was as white as snowflakes and without any bitterness and odor, and the price was much cheaper than the previous coarse salt.

As the sale time comes.

Countless people have gathered in front of Jia Shang Shop, which is covered with refined salt, all over the country since early in the morning. It can be described as extremely lively.

There are many people among them who are doing good things and watching the excitement. Of course, more people have the mentality of giving it a try. There are also many people who want to buy so-called refined salt to give it a try.

Compared with the bustling scenes across the country, Yingtian Mansion, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, was the most prosperous place in the entire Ming Dynasty.

The purchasing power per capita is stronger than anywhere else in the country.

As the initiators of the promotion of refined salt, Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu and Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi, together with the important officials of the court, also changed into casual clothes today, and quietly and quietly under the protection of a group of royal guards, they booked Yingtian Mansion early. On the second floor opposite the largest refined salt shop, I quietly watched the purchases of the people in the shop.

Seeing the long queues on the street below, the noisy buying sounds roared like thunder.

And seeing all the people who had enough money to buy refined salt, they put the salt in their mouths and tasted it with satisfied looks on their faces.

After coming back to their senses, many people looked a little embarrassed and looked in disbelief. They all subconsciously asked in unison:
"The shopkeeper's."

"This new salt has no bitter taste, has such a beautiful color, and is full of salty flavor. It is the best salt I have ever seen in my life."

"Is the price of such new salt really as low as seventy cents as you advertised before?"

"Instead of asking for several taels of silver or even a higher price?"

The voice just fell.

The originally noisy environment suddenly became quiet as if it had been choked. The long queue of people behind them looked directly at the store that welcomed customers and collected money, quietly waiting for an answer.

In fact, it’s no wonder the people are so cautious.

Although the merchants had already publicized it, the imperial court also cooperated with the publicity.

But after seeing the real thing, they can't help but be cautious when looking at the appearance and quality of the real thing.

After all, the salt of this quality is much higher than the previous coarse salt, and the price is only a little more than half of the previous coarse salt.

Under such circumstances, no matter how you look at it, it will feel extremely unreal and unbelievable, so you have such doubts.

After hearing this, the shopkeeper in charge of the sales was undoubtedly a human being, and he naturally understood the concerns of these people.

With a faint smile on his face, he nodded heavily and responded in an extremely confident and solemn voice:
"Dear customers."

"You don't need to question or worry about this."

"Say what kind of price it is, and it will naturally be what kind of price it is."

"This is the kindness of the imperial court, and the price is also the price set by the imperial court. We don't dare to sell it randomly, let alone charge you any more money."

"This price is the unified price within the Ming Dynasty. No one dares to exceed this price."

"Anyone who dares to exceed this price is defying the decree."

"I don't need to explain the consequences, you all understand it!"

“So you don’t have to worry at all and can buy with confidence.”

As soon as these words came out.

All the people in the audience were shaken, the expressions on their faces instantly relaxed, their hearts were finally relieved, and their faces were all filled with satisfied and happy smiles.

At the same time, someone in the audience spoke first, leading many people to kneel down in the direction of the palace and shouted loudly:
"Long live your Majesty, long live the Ming Dynasty."

"Long live your Majesty, long live the Ming Dynasty."

For a moment, the atmosphere at the scene could be said to be brought to its peak by the people.

After a while, the people who had been identified one by one, with expressions as if they had been injected with chicken blood, were buying refined salt from the store. The scene was several degrees more popular than before.

And things like this can be seen everywhere in the Ming Dynasty today.

This scene happened outside almost all shops selling refined salt.

Zhu Gaochi and the ministers who lived on the second floor saw the scene in front of them, with extremely satisfied and gratified smiles on their faces.

After that, everyone was stunned for a moment, and their eyes involuntarily focused on the initiator and the Han King Zhu Gaoxu who was the first to promote refined salt. They saw that he was like a man who had nothing to do, drinking hot tea with a leisurely manner.

As a result, everyone couldn't help but be filled with emotion.

Sensing the gazes on him, Zhu Gaoxu shook his tea cup, took a sip of the hot tea in the cup, looked back at everyone, a slight smile appeared on the slightly raised corner of his mouth, and joked:
"Everyone, what's wrong?"

"But there are flowers on my face, or there are things that have not been wiped clean."

"Everyone who covets my king's grand appearance is still attracted by me."

"That's not possible. I don't have such a shameful hobby."

As soon as these words came out.

Coupled with the meaningful smile on Zhu Gaoxu's face.

See, is this human language?
It really made all the ministers so nauseous that they almost vomited out their overnight meal.

It also made everyone's good impression of Zhu Gaoxu disappear in an instant, and everyone almost couldn't hold back their words and cursed her.

However, the officials were unhappy, but no one dared to say anything or even reply, because after all, the identity of others lay there.

In the end, the ministers gritted their teeth and looked down at the people who were going back and forth to buy salt, in order to calm down their emotions. (End of chapter)
