Chapter 1017

LV Zhen easily perfunctorily walked away from the dark cloud and said proudly: "these barbarians don't know etiquette. They even let a woman stand out. It can be seen that they are vulnerable!"

There was an officer around him who said, "adults can use their words freely, but a few words made the woman ashamed. No one in the etiquette Department has this means. The officer admired it!"

LV Zhen stroked her beard and was secretly proud: "this woman is stupid. She should go to the Ministry of household. Xia Yuanji has many things every day. If she is most bothered by such things, she will surely show her the way."

Xia Yuanji was very busy. After listening to Fang Xing's suggestions, he went back and convened several non disclosure subordinates to discuss whether Fang Xing's suggestions were feasible.

"Sir, I think it's feasible. Those rich businessmen are not short of money! If they are lured by profits, they will probably take the bait. Then we can reduce a lot of investment in the early stage and take it easy in the second half of the year.

The Ministry of household has to calculate carefully every year. What it fears most is emergencies, which means that it needs to transfer materials, money and food from elsewhere to disrupt the plan.

"That's right! As long as someone starts, at that time, those luxury merchants will be worried about not getting the store and will certainly compete with each other. Others will naturally follow up. After all, it's the same truth to do business and be an official. If you sail against the current, you'll retreat if you don't advance!"

At this time, being an official depends on your political achievements and whether there is anyone above you.

If you have nothing, you'll apologize. It'll probably go farther and farther.

Xia Yuanji drooped his eyes and thought. Zuo Shilang coughed and said, "Sir, there is a lot of money and food in the household. Maybe it's a little less!"

This is a sentence to strengthen Xia Yuanji's faith. He looked up and said, "well, I'll go to your majesty now. I have to find some heroes and relatives who have caught their tail recently."

Zuo Shilang was surprised and said, "Sir, your majesty won't do it?"

Will Chu do anything about it?

Xia Yuanji glared and said, "my official is dedicated to the public. Even if emperor Taizu Gao is here, I dare to go!"

This is Xia Yuanji. He only works, regardless of people!

After Xia Yuanji went out, Zuo Shilang shook his head and said, "Your Majesty just tolerates Lord Xia. If we dare to offend your majesty, tut tut! Issue an edict to jail!"

……

Sure enough, when Xia Yuanji told Zhu Di what he wanted, Zhu Di's beard was calm, held the Paperweight in his big hand and smashed it out.

Xia Yuanji's head tilted and the Paperweight rubbed his ears. He held his head high and said, "Your Majesty, I'm right to ask myself. Your majesty threw the Paperweight at my minister, but I won't accept it!"

"You don't agree? Come!"

"Your majesty!"

Wang Fusheng came in with a knife and stared at Xia Yuanji. In his eyes, everyone except Zhu Di could be killed!

Zhu Di's eyes flickered and the green veins on his neck bounced. Seeing that Xia Yuanji was still holding his neck and unconvinced, he said angrily, "Xia Yuanji, do you think I can't kill you?"

Xia Yuanji's eyes were firm and said in a manner of looking at death suddenly as if returning: "Your Majesty, if this matter is successful, the overall situation of the outer city will be determined. I dare not be a bit lazy. Isn't it worth being those heroes and relatives? The minister should suggest that your majesty give up those useless heroes and relatives. They are useless to the country and the people. What benefits do they have?"

The eunuch smiled bitterly on the side and felt that Xia Yuanji's approval of dragon scales was too much. If he couldn't do it well, he had to go to the imperial prison.

"Get out!"

Zhu Di looked everywhere angrily. Xia Yuanji didn't suffer from the loss in front of him. After saluting, he said, "I'm guilty. I'll go back and think of other ways."

Watching Xia Yuanji leave, Zhu Di got up and turned around. Even the eunuch felt the murderous spirit.

"This guy insults me so, it's time to kill!"

The angry Zhu Di didn't even read the chapter and went to the princess.

The imperial concubine didn't need to look. She only needed to listen to the weight and rhythm of her steps to know that Zhu Di was in a bad mood. She got up and said, "Your Majesty is angry? State ministers and concubines don't dare to talk nonsense, but there are six Shangshu in the court and all scholars. Why don't your majesty do it slowly."

Zhu Di snorted, then sat on the wide chair prepared for him by imperial concubine Wang, took a sip of the tea cup, and then said in amazement, "is it cold tea?"

Imperial concubine Wang nodded and said, "Your Majesty, this is a new prescription of Taiyuan hospital. It adds some medicinal materials. Drinking cold can better reconcile the body."

Zhu Di was so angry that the Tai hospital did its best for this.

After drinking it all, Zhu Di said angrily: "Xia Yuanji took me as his subordinate and ordered me. He actually wanted me to threaten several heroes to work for him. I really want to kill him!"

The Royal concubine sighed and said, "Your Majesty, Xia Yuanji's concubine has heard your majesty say many times, but she is a man who only knows how to do things. Why should your majesty be angry for him? It's a small matter to hurt the harmony between monarchs and ministers, and it's a big matter if your Majesty's body is angry!"

Seeing that Zhu Di's face was a little slow, the princess sent him a cup of hot water to rinse his mouth. After serving him, she smiled and said, "at first, the talents in the court withered. It was your majesty who promoted them regardless of their style. Now they dare to advise directly. In the view of ministers and concubines, it is your Majesty's merit better than that of Tang Zong and Song Zu!"

Zhu Di stroked his beard, looked better, and then hummed: "I don't like the former Tang Dynasty's groveling to Turks and being controlled by other nationalities. The former Song Dynasty abolished martial arts and allowed literati to climb to the top of the emperor. It's not worthy to compare with the Ming Dynasty!"

"My Daming should not be like this!"

Zhu Di glanced at him, and the Royal concubine couldn't help but look intoxicated. She slowly fell on his knee and listened carefully to the man's words.

"The respect of the national power of our Dynasty is superior to that of the ancient times. It controls the north and conquers the Western barbarians on the South Island of Xipan. There is no harmony between the Han Dynasty, no alliance between the Tang Dynasty, no nasui thin coin of the Song Dynasty, and no ceremony of brothers and enemies."

Zhu Di got up and helped away the Royal concubine with one hand. His breath was clear. "My children and grandchildren should stay in Peiping like this. Whoever comes, fight! But they can't step back! Let alone live in servitude! Their spine can't bend! Can't bend!"

"If anyone retreats, he is not my son and daughter. The world should abandon him!"

This voice is thick and powerful. The princess only feels intoxicated. This is the most powerful man in the world!

When the eunuch saw that several palace maids were also intoxicated, he stared, but he himself was also agitated!

Zhu Di looked at the spring outside and said sonorously, "Zhan Ji has grown up. Even if I'm gone, there's Zhan Ji. The prince doesn't dare to be weak, otherwise..."

The proud emperor could not tolerate the weakness of his children and grandchildren, nor could there be countries around him that could challenge Daming. Therefore, he was willing to go deep into the grassland again and again to defeat those ambitious enemies, so that they did not dare to peep south!

"Someone!"

The eunuch quickly raised his head, and Zhu Di said without stagnation: "enjoy Xia Yuanji's Brocade robe and send it right away."

……

Xia Yuanji returned to the household department. Zuo Shilang hurriedly asked about the situation.

"I don't think it's a big problem. Your majesty will certainly agree!"

Xia Yuanji said stubbornly, but Zuo Shilang knew that things were not good.

If it goes well, Xia Yuanji should arrange the follow-up when he comes back.

"Hurry up, it's done, and the day of Daming will be much better this year."

Xia Yuanji shook his head, forgot the quarrel in the palace and continued to deal with the affairs of the household until he was interrupted by a sharp voice.

"Your Majesty rewarded Xia Shangshu..."
