Chapter 417: The Xu Family's Brothers' Choice
Mr. Fang, you can talk to me for a while. ”
Zhu Yunwen took the initiative to leave Fang Xiaoru, and as for Huang Zicheng, he went to pass the decree and let Xu Huizu lead the troops to the battle. Zhu Yunwen invited Fang Xiaoru to go to the Imperial Garden, and Zhu Yuanzhang's vegetable plot was almost shoveled, leaving the tea trees planted by Queen Ma herself.
Junchen walked among the flowers, and his mood suddenly improved a lot.
"Mr. Fang, I once felt that as long as I ascended the throne and became the emperor and sat on the dragon chair, everything would be fine, and I would not have to worry about anything...... Grandfather Huang is like this, no one dares to disobey him, he can do whatever he wants, and he never has to worry about anyone opposition. Zhu Yunwen's face was pale, and the fire of anger burned in his heart. Compared with Lao Zhu, he is really miserable. What you want to do will be restricted, and now it is even more blazing, and the country is in turmoil.
In any case, Zhu Yunwen didn't expect that the emperor would be so difficult.
Fang Xiaoru sighed dejectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't do whatever he wanted! In fact, many times Emperor Hongwu is very embarrassed, the common people lose a cow, they dare to come to beat the drum, a small grain grows into Beijing, Zhu Yuanzhang will also summon, talk, give a banquet, never slack off.
Lao Zhu has done these "little things" well and stabilized the plate, so that he can open and close unscrupulously...... As for Zhu Yunwen, he didn't fight the country, he has neither prestige nor popular support, and he wants to learn from Lao Zhu's thunderbolt methods, isn't that a dream!
Fang Xiaoru didn't think that Zhu Yunwen would be so mentally retarded, and he couldn't even see the difference.
The emperor said this because he had lost his self-confidence, he was confused, and he didn't know what to do!
There is no doubt about it, but it is a very fatal thing, when the head loses the square inch, how can the people below be good?
"Your Majesty!" Fang Xiaoru groaned: "The old minister thinks that Your Majesty should still clean up people's hearts and focus on changing the law...... As long as the reform is carried out and effective, the hearts of the people are towards the court, the treasury is full, and the soldiers are strong, the vassal kings will not become a threat to the court, and Your Majesty will be able to cut the vassal successfully with a wave of his hand. ”
Zhu Yunwen nodded slightly, it really makes sense...... How does this sound familiar?
It's Yoo Chun!
That's him!
That's what Liu Chun said back then.
He said in more detail than Fang Xiaoru, and he advocated the use of the means of development and the way of changing the law...... Perhaps one day, the vassal king will not be a threat at all.
Frankly speaking, Zhu Yunwen just took Liu Chun's words as a means of shirking, and he said this in order to help Zhu Di, the king of Yan. But now, Fang Xiaoru also has this view, is Fang Xiaoru also Zhu Di's person?
Maybe it's really wrong! Liu Chun told him the truth, but he didn't understand! By the time I get my senses, it's too late.
"Mr. Fang, do you think it's still useful to implement the law change now?" Zhu Yunwen said in a trembling voice.
Fang Xiaoru was a little embarrassed, if Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne, he would immediately implement the change, ask Liu Chun to return to the court to preside over the change, and even authorize Zhu Di to continue to implement the change in Beiping...... In this way, the possibility of the vassal king raising troops was eliminated.
As the Son of Heaven, he is naturally the biggest beneficiary of the change, so what else is there to worry about.
It's a pity that Zhu Yunwen, as well as the people around him, don't have this mind at all, they can't see the overall situation, as the new monarch, there is no measure to benefit the people, but they are obsessed with eradicating the threat, causing chaos in the world, and they are really to blame for today's fate.
It's just that the kings have rebelled, and now they have changed their ways, is it still useful?
"Your Majesty, it's never too late to change the law. The ministers thought that the gentry would pay for the service as one, and this article must be implemented. Otherwise, repeated wars will only deplete the treasury and make life difficult for the people. Once the displacement is everywhere, the situation cannot be managed. Fang Xiaoru was bitter in his heart, he said that it was not too late, but in fact, he had missed the best opportunity.
And he is also worried that even if he starts to do it now, he may not be able to carry it out, the reason is very simple, that is, the people in the DPRK and China, will they sacrifice their own interests for the sake of the overall situation?
"Mr. Fang, from tomorrow onwards, you will take over the account department, manage the money for me, and hand over all the things that change the law to Mr. Fang. Mr. Fang, I will do my best to support you. Zhu Yunwen finally nodded.
Fang Xiaoru knelt on the ground, prostrate and bowed, tears blurred his eyes, "Your Majesty is gracious, the minister's liver and brain are smeared, and he will not give up!" ”
As for Zhu Yunwen's other master, Huang Zicheng conveyed the holy decree to Xu Huizu, and said with a smile: "Wei Guogong, this time he will lead the troops to the battle, and he will be able to win a big victory, the old man first congratulates Wei Guogong on his victory and returns triumphantly!" ”
Xu Huizu is much taller than Huang Zicheng, but at this moment he is bent to a very low level, similar to Huang Zicheng, and his demeanor is even more respectful.
"Lord Huang, leading the troops to the expedition is all the credit of Lord Huang, and I am grateful."
When Xu Huizu bowed, he stuffed a bill of exchange into Huang Zicheng's cuffs, 100,000 yuan, and redeemed it when he saw it. Huang Zicheng put it away silently.
Xu Huizu said with emotion: "The general is outside, and he is most afraid of instability in the rear. I went to Bashu this time to pacify King Min, or ask Lord Huang to maneuver a lot, shelter me from the wind and rain, and so on King Min, I should personally thank you, thank Lord Huang for his kindness! ”
Huang Zicheng smiled, and his titles have changed, "Grandpa Guo is loyal and courageous, and he uses soldiers like a god, the old man knows Grandpa Guo's ability, just Zhu Ying, it's nothing, even if Mu Chun is added, Grandpa Guo is more than enough." ”
These two people blew each other for a while, Huang Zicheng took the bill of exchange, and left satisfied, worthy of being the first noble family, he was really generous!
Huang Zicheng suddenly remembered that he was at a friend's place, and he took a fancy to a set of Su Dongpo's four treasures left by Su Dongpo, all of which were the best of the best, plus Su Dacai's inscription poems, which were enough to serve as heirlooms.
With this money, you can buy the four treasures of the study and put them in your own home...... That's great!
Xu Huizu is gone, and another one has been liberated, that is Xu Zengshou! Even if Xu Huizu repeatedly confessed that he wanted to be grounded and not allowed to leave the house, as soon as Xu Huizu left, Xu Zengshou directly pretended to be unconscious, and his family was afraid that something would happen, so they could only carry him out.
Still on the stretcher, Xu Zengshou jumped up, and no matter how much the family in the back chased, it was useless. Xu Zengshou arrived at his own courtyard, and he didn't get any news when he was grounded.
It was easy to get out, and he immediately checked the newspaper and quickly browsed the situation.
When Xu Zengshou saw all parties raising troops and crusading against Zhu Yunwen together, he couldn't help but sneer, he deserved it, this is self-inflicted!
Looking further down, the eldest brother Xu Huizu took 150,000 people into Shu to crusade against King Min.
Xu Zengshou almost wanted to laugh out loud...... It's not good where to go, you have to go to Bashu, isn't this self-defeating!
Big brother, big brother, I know that you have always been a self-confessed soldier, but this time, you will definitely be defeated.
How could Xu Zengshou be so sure?
It turns out that Bashu still has a big card, and that is Princess Lan of Shu!
That's right, it's the Lan family, Lan Yu's daughter, and Lan Crescent's sister!
She married Zhu Chun when Zhu Chun, the king of Shu, was in the domain. In the past few years, the Lan family has had a lot of business in Bashu......
"Third sister, you said that the fourth brother is now helping outsiders and dealing with our eldest brother, if you let your father know under Jiuquan, how would you feel?" Xu Zengshou sighed.
Xu Miaojin chuckled, "Fourth brother, our father will only say that you are good!" Big brother, he is a ghost, but I heard that the subordinates of Xiping Hou Muchun are the most powerful firearms soldiers in the world, and their combat power is strong. Our big brother is definitely not an opponent, he will only hit his head and bleed! ”
Xu Zengshou sighed: "It would be nice if it was just a bleeding head, I'm afraid that he would even take his life into it." Xu Zengshou thought for a while, wrote a letter, and handed it to Xu Miaojin.
"Third sister, is that kid by King Yan's side?"
Xu Miaojin didn't deny it, put the letter away, turned around and said angrily: "Fourth brother, you received favors from others at the beginning, but the housekeeper called the eldest brother, and now the kid, the kid is screaming, you are too much, right?" ”
Xu Zengshou's eyes rolled strangely, "What's too much!" I didn't think about it before, but now that I've figured it out, I'm going to let him be my brother-in-law! How do I call him a kid? That's lifting him up! ”
Xu Miaojin's pretty face flushed when she was said, "Fourth brother, what nonsense are you talking about?" ”
Xu Zengshou was dumbfounded, "I, I'm not talking nonsense...... Third sister, you are affectionate, and my sister is intentional. It's been dragging on for a few years, how can I say it, follow him, don't wronged you! If you leave Beijing this time, let's marry him! You have a good home, and the fourth brother will be relieved. ”
Xu Miaojin's face gradually collapsed, and she said with concern: "Fourth brother, why don't you go with me?" Let's go out of Beijing together, shall we? ”
Xu Zengshou shook his head, "You are a girl, no one cares about you." If the fourth brother leaves Beijing, someone will definitely impeach him...... When the time comes, because of me, the family will be implicated, won't the fourth brother become a sinner! Don't worry, the Xu family still has some face, and I will be careful, and that kid is still a dead man, so I'm not afraid. ”
Xu Zengshou scratched his sister's forehead and said dotingly: "Fourth brother is still waiting to drink your wedding wine!" ”
