Chapter two hundred and sixty-six inspection of Yanzhou

Zhu Xu put his hands in his arms, thought for a while, and said, "In this way, Uncle, I ordered Cao Huachun to take out 300,000 taels from the Chamber of Commerce and pay them to the clan mansion first for emergency purposes."

King Ping waved his hand quickly and said, "Your Majesty, if you can't do it, that's your private property. How can you give it to the clan's house? Isn't this apart from public or private? No, no..."

Fu Changzong looked at Zhu Xu and stepped forward with knowledge and said, "Emperor, I think it is not possible. The country has national laws and family rules. The emperor should clearly distinguish them." After saying that, he turned to King Ping and said, "Prince, now King Xin is regent. Please ask the prince to discuss this matter with King Xin to discuss it."

King Ping didn't think anything was wrong and nodded and said, "Well, I'm just thinking about it. I'll go to Wenzhao Pavilion to see King Xin to ask."

Wei Zhongxian watched Zhu Xu and Fu Changzong sing and reconcile, and settled King Ping so simply, bowed and stood there, quietly becoming a transparent person.

Zhu Xu also felt funny in his heart and continued calmly: "Uncle Emperor, in this way, you can send a message to the princes from all over the country, including their princes, and their families can come to Beijing, just say that the Queen Mother also wants to meet them and reminisce about the past."

When Fu Changzong heard Zhu Xu's words, hesitated whether to stop Zhu Xu.

King Ping was stunned. Although he liked Fengyue and ignored court affairs, he was not stupid. He could vaguely hear that Zhu Xu's purpose was not simple, and he hesitated: "Your Majesty, it's probably not good to do this. In this winter, many people can't stand this long journey."

Zhu Xu looked at King Ping and glanced at Fu Changzong again. Seeing that he was shaking his head indecisively, he sighed in his heart, and was not entangled in this place. He looked at King Ping and said, "Uncle Emperor, then you go find Brother Xin Wang to see if you can think of a solution and go over the annual limit first."

King Ping then smiled and nodded, "Your Majesty, then I'll go."

Zhu Xu smiled. As soon as King Ping left, he walked back and sat down, looked at Fu Changzong and said, "Uncle, what do you think about the vassal king occupying land?"

Fu Changzong knew in his heart that Zhu Xu had not had the idea of ​​them for a day or two. He looked at Wei Zhongxian and said carefully: "Your Majesty, this is indeed an opportunity, but you can't make a big move. King Xin has agreed to me to investigate the wasteland and wasteland across the country. You can take this opportunity to investigate the land occupied by the royal family."

Zhu Xu waved his hand and said, "It's not that simple. Do you think these princes are so easy to deal with? I'm afraid that the Ministry of Revenue will not take action, so they will think of a countermeasure. Wei Zhongxian, what do you think?"

Wei Zhongxian then turned around and said, "Emperor, since each royal family only has so many private property, the rest must be nothing else. I can start to investigate tomorrow and confiscate them all into the treasury before the royal family can react."

Zhu Xu thought for a moment and said, "This is a solution, but you can't be too hasty. Start with the weak first, don't be sensible, and don't be included in the treasury. Uncle, if you are classified as our business, don't be included in the treasury."

With the permission of King Xin, Wei Zhongxian was also reasonable and well-founded when he did it. He bowed and said, "I obey the order."

Fu Changzong also nodded and said, "Your Majesty, all of these can be released. The audit of the Ministry of Revenue and the audit of Huitong Trading Bank are also being carried out in an effort to achieve a result before the end of the year."

Zhu Xu's expression was slightly moved. The audit of the Ministry of Revenue mainly focused on clarifying local government affairs, taxes, and past years of arrears. The design of Huitong Chamber of Commerce is much more complicated. In addition to the few chambers of commerce directly affiliated, it also involves hundreds of large and small nationwide, including salt and tea. The complexity of these is not clear for a few months.

"Well, the Ministry of Revenue can be slower. Huitong Trading Bank needs to speed up, and there are more places to use money next year." Zhu Xu said.

Fu Changzong nodded, and knew that the disaster was getting worse and worse, and the amount of money needed was more and more. However, he didn't know that Zhu Xu was referring to the Battle of Liaodong.

Zhu Xu sent Wei Zhongxian away, and then walked into the side room with Fu Changzong and started chatting in detail.

Zhu Xu needs to master and distinguish the situations in the court and the country through various channels, and once he is deceived, he will make mistakes.

The two talked about from Huitong Trading Bank to major trading banks, from trading banks to the Ministry of Revenue, and then to various places, from land, commercial tax, customs, and maritime trade.

Fu Changzong felt that this nephew was extremely evil for a long time and could not be said to be well-versed in history, but he was so bold that he was surprised to have a wonderful idea, especially some national political ideas.

If it were in the past, Fu Changzong might be worried that Zhu Xu would take the wrong path, but now that he has been on the dragon throne, these have become a necessary qualities for far-sightedness and achieving a generation of holy lords!

There was no intrigue in the palace. After all, the emperor was young and did not compete for favor in the harem. In addition, Concubine Liu and Empress Dowager Zhang were not the ones who took power, and everyone stayed quietly in the palace.

Outside the palace, with King Xin taking office, especially the Censorate, Kedao left Beijing one after another, and a rare peace appeared in the officialdom of the capital. There were many rumors outside that praised Zhu Youjian as a wise king, and praised it from all parties, giving great hope.

Zhu Xu laughed at all these, hid behind the scenes, and quietly advanced his plan.

Mountain, East, Yanzhou Prefecture.

In front of the gate, the prefect Deng Xiyong, the magistrate He Guilan, and the co-magistrate Wei Rui, the three of them walked out with a smile on their faces and smiled.

Huang Zunsu led a group of people next to the carriage, raised his hand and smiled, "Mr. Deng, we have inspected all the prefectures and counties. Today we will leave Yanzhou Prefecture. Several adults can sleep peacefully."

Deng Xiyong was over 40 years old and a fourth-rank official. His promotion route was either in the mountains, east, or straight to the capital. It was obvious that Huang Zunsu was a great Bodhisattva in his opinion and had a significant impact on his career.

He looked eager and raised his hand and said, "Mr. Huang is laughing. There is nothing to be entertained in the small local government. I hope I can come back on the day I return to Beijing. Deng will wait."

Huang Zunsu has always been honest and honest. Although Deng Xiyong did not bribe him, he also knew Deng Xiyong's intention to "progress" and said with a smile: "Mr. Deng is polite. If he returns to Beijing, he will definitely disturb him again. Well, there is only one county magistrate in Yanzhou Prefecture that embezzles and accepts bribes, which means that Mr. Deng is good at governing his subordinates. After he returns, he will definitely submit the truth."

This is what Deng Xiyong wanted, and said happily: "Thank you, Lord Huang. The emperor will do his best to be loyal to the emperor and do his best to the court..."

A seventh-grade classic beside Huang Zunsu, he stepped forward and whispered, "Sir, you can set off."

Huang Zunsu nodded and raised his hand again and said, "Okay, Lord Deng, I have said goodbye."

Deng Xiyong and Tongzhi, Tongzhi, quickly stepped forward and said, "Mr. Huang is in a good mood, so I'll wait for the good news."

Huang Zunsu smiled reservedly and turned to the carriage.

Compared to the previous fear, Deng Xiyong and others wanted to leave Huang Zunsu. This is a close confidant of Yang Lian, the left censor of the Censorate, and Lord Yang is even the imperial teacher. With this relationship, why worry about not becoming successful?
