Huang Yourong has no way out now, Shen Changmao has been planning for a long time, and the two of them know each other well and can guess each other's bottom line, and the differences are not big, so this deal was easily reached without any obstacles.

But at the same time, in the Luan drive of Emperor Deqing, the exchange between Emperor Deqing and the crown prince Zhu Heyu was not very pleasant.

In fact, at the beginning, the conversation went very well.

***

However, he said that in front of the Chinese military officials, the Deqing Emperor was quite concerned about the attitude of the crown prince Zhu Heyu, and showed obvious protection intentions, as if the Deqing Emperor was not at all angry at the crown prince Zhu Heyu's private rectification of commercial taxes.

However, the truth is quite the opposite.

For the crown prince Zhu Heyu's private rectification of commercial taxes, Emperor Deqing can be said to be angry and angry, and even had the idea of changing the prince because of this matter, but Emperor Deqing was not carried away by anger, he was still able to see the situation, and he knew very well that now was not the best time to replace the prince.

After all, after the crown prince Zhu and Yu rectified the commercial tax, they have violated the interests of all aspects, and now it is the time when the hundred officials in the court are excited, if the Deqing Emperor chooses to replace the prince at this time, it is as if the Deqing Emperor is afraid of the hundred officials, which is detrimental to the imperial majesty of the Deqing Emperor!

Therefore, in front of the hundred officials, Emperor Deqing not only did not show his dissatisfaction with the crown prince Zhu Heyu, but deliberately defended the crown prince Zhu Heyu, and put the black pot of commercial tax rectification on Huang Yourong's head.

It's just that. When the crown prince Zhu Heyu entered the Luan drive of Emperor Deqing, Emperor Deqing could no longer control his emotions. changed his attitude in an instant, and looked at the crown prince Zhu and Yu coldly with a black face. I was going to open my mouth to reprimand.

If it were usual, seeing Emperor Deqing like this, Zhu Heyu might insist on his position and argue with Emperor Deqing.

However, because of Zhao Shancai's advice yesterday, Zhu Heyu has found a better way.

***

After the crown prince Zhu Heyu entered Luanjia, Emperor Deqing didn't have time to reprimand, but saw that Zhu Heyu was already kneeling in front of Emperor Deqing, bowed his head and said, "Erchen is guilty." I'm causing trouble to you again! ”

Seeing that Zhu Heyu took the initiative to admit his mistake, Emperor Deqing was stunned at first, and then snorted coldly and said, "So you also know that you have caused me trouble?" Hum! What you've done is more than a nuisance! Do you know how much of a bad thing you have done because of your rectification of commercial taxes? ”

However, the character of the prince Zhu and Yu has always been stubborn, and it is very rare to take the initiative to admit mistakes. Therefore, although Emperor Deqing reprimanded Zhu Heyu angrily, his face was slightly relieved.

On the other side, the crown prince Zhu and Yu still bowed their heads and said: "Erchen didn't know it originally, but now he knows!" Father, the real reason for your southern tour. It was to deal with Zhou Shangjing, but because of the matter of the son's rectification of commercial taxes, it disrupted his father's plan! Erchen didn't want to do that either. If he could know his father's thoughts in advance, his sons would never choose to rectify the commercial tax at this time. ”

Emperor Deqing snorted coldly again. Rhetorical question: "How?" Are you blaming me for not telling you in advance my true intentions for this southern tour? With your city government's scheming, how dare you let me tell you these things?! And also. The matter of business and taxation is extremely sensitive, and requires extremely high means and wisdom, even I dare not touch it easily, let alone you? Don't I have the intention of dealing with Zhou Shangjing, so you can rectify the business tax at will? Where is this as simple as you think? Absurd! ”

However, seeing that Zhu Heyu finally understood the way to change a little and was no longer as upright as before, Emperor Deqing's anger was also slightly reduced again.

The crown prince Zhu Heyu is not good at acting, so when he replied, he still hung his head and hid his expression, not letting Emperor Deqing see the change in his expression, and explained: "Erchen also knows that his ability is still insufficient, but Erchen has repeatedly seen your father over the years because of the turnover of money and food in the imperial court, so he wants to solve problems for your father, with his filial piety, but he didn't expect to do bad things with good intentions, not only did not help his father, but he caused trouble to his father, and ruined his father's big things. Erchen is really wrong! ”

On the other side, after hearing the words of the crown prince Zhu and Yu, Emperor Deqing's complexion eased a lot.

As Zhao Shancai said, Emperor Deqing is a father after all, and after seeing his son's filial piety, he can't help but soften his heart.

As a result, Emperor Deqing also fell silent, a little hesitant about how he should treat the filial piety of the crown prince Zhu Heyu.

After all, although filial piety is good, it is not a reason to get into trouble after all!

Just when Emperor Deqing was silent, Zhu Heyu said again: "In addition, this time it was Erchen who thought things too simply, and commercial taxes involved the interests of all aspects, but Erchen's actions at the beginning were too big, and the scope of the attack was too wide, so it was naturally counterattacked and hindered by all officials!" If you let Erchen do it again, then Erchen will start from the subtleties, peel off the cocoon to resolve the opposing forces, and then gradually rectify the chaos of commercial taxes, but will never be as fanfare as this time, and will never expect that he can finish his work in one battle...... It's a pity that Erchen didn't understand these truths until now. ”

Hearing all the truths that Zhu Heyu said, Emperor Deqing couldn't help but be stunned, and suddenly found that Zhu Heyu had suddenly grown a lot.

If the crown prince Zhu Heyu really changed his personality and matured his mind because of the commercial tax rectification, then in the eyes of Emperor Deqing, even if the commercial tax rectification caused a big mess, everything would be worth it!

So, in order to confirm his judgment, Emperor Deqing quietly continued to probe and said: "Oh? I didn't expect you to grow a lot because of this, but it's come to this point, and it's useless to regret it! Now, because of the rectification of commercial taxes, it has caused chaos in the government and the opposition. The most important task at present is to stabilize the situation between the government and the opposition. But I want to know, what do you think about this? ”

Because of Zhao Shancai's reminder. Zhu Heyu had already done his homework and replied: "In Erchen's opinion, because of the rectification of commercial taxation, the situation of the government and the opposition is certainly chaotic, but the rectification of commercial taxation must continue, and it must not be stopped because of the chaos of the situation between the government and the opposition!" After all, the issue of commercial taxation is now common to the whole world, and if it is only suspended because of the chaos of the situation, it will make the people underestimate the imperial court and the officials underestimate the imperial power. In the view of Erchen, most of the chaotic situation in the government and the opposition is because the commercial tax rectification touches the interests of some people, so they naturally obstruct it in every possible way, making the imperial court's decrees unable to flow smoothly, and also making the commercial tax rectification unable to achieve results, and then they use the excuse that the commercial tax rectification cannot achieve results, and blatantly violate the imperial court decrees, but they have fallen into a dead circle, but because of this, it is precisely because of this. As long as the rectification of commercial taxation has achieved collective results, then the mouth of Youyou can be blocked, and the situation in the imperial court can be initially stabilized. ”

Then, Zhu Heyu analyzed a lot in detail. And put forward many effective suggestions to Emperor Deqing, of course, these are all from Zhao Shancai's ideas, and Zhu Heyu just copied them.

But. Even so, it was enough to shock Emperor Deqing.

Emperor Deqing did not expect it at all. After suffering the setback of commercial tax rectification, Zhao Shancai was able to grow so much. Not only is my mind mature and I know how to be flexible, but even my vision and knowledge have improved a lot!

Therefore, just like Zhao Shancai's conception, after seeing the growth of the crown prince Zhu and Yu, the idea of changing the prince in Emperor Deqing's heart has been shaken a lot, and he only feels that the prince Zhu and Yu are still teachable, and if they grow up according to this trend, they may not be able to become a qualified imperial heir in the future.

So, after listening to Zhu Heyu's analysis, Emperor Deqing nodded secretly, and said: "Since you contributed to the rectification of commercial taxes, then I will still leave it to you to deal with, however, you are not familiar with the way of tax and financial management, so I plan to let Zhao Junchen assist you in rectifying commercial taxes, are you willing?" ”

Originally, Emperor Deqing planned to hand over the rectification of commercial taxes to Zhao Junchen and no longer let Zhu Heyu interfere.

This is because Emperor Deqing has completely lost confidence in Zhu Heyu, thinking that Zhu Heyu only knows how to cause chaos.

However, because of Zhao Shancai's strategy, Emperor Deqing regained some confidence in Zhu Heyu a little, but he changed his mind and planned to let Zhu Heyu continue to be responsible for the business tax rectification, and Zhao Junchen became an assistant, so that if the business tax rectification really achieved results, then the credit naturally belongs to the crown prince Zhu Heyu, and if the business tax rectification finally fails, the responsibility is naturally Zhao Junchen's.

It can be said that Emperor Deqing's consideration for Zhu Heyu was still very thoughtful.

Things have developed to this point, and everything is going according to Zhao Shancai's concept.

Next, as long as Zhu Heyu agrees to Emperor Deqing's proposal, then the situation faced by Zhu Heyu will naturally be greatly improved!

It's a pity, as mentioned above, Zhu Heyu followed all of Zhao Shancai's suggestions, except for cooperating with Zhao Junchen to rectify the commercial tax!

Now, after hearing Emperor Deqing's inquiry, Zhu Heyu still did not change his mind, but said: "Father, Erchen believes that he can be in charge of this matter alone, and he does not need Zhao Junchen's assistance at all!" ”

After hearing Zhu Heyu's rebuttal, Emperor Deqing subconsciously frowned.

***

In the end, no one knew what the crown prince Zhu Heyu said to Emperor Deqing.

It's just that the atmosphere between the two, which was already gradually harmonious, has completely dissipated because of this.

In fact, before Emperor Deqing returned to the palace, Zhu Heyu had already left Luanjia halfway, with a faint anger on his expression.

Obviously, because of the use of Zhao Junchen, Emperor Deqing and Zhu Heyu had a conflict again!

Also because of the stubbornness of the crown prince Zhu and Yu, all the plans proposed by Zhao Shancai, although they went smoothly in the early stage, were still successful in the end!

PS: Well, today's third update! There should be one more before the wee hours of the morning!

In addition, the plot of this chapter, which has been fully hinted at before, everyone can guess the follow-up development, which must be written, but there is nothing too interesting to write, if you write another four or five thousand words, I'm afraid it will be a waste of everyone's feelings, so the worm will simply skip it, and I hope you can understand!
