"Your Majesty, I have nothing to say!"

Zhu Fu suppressed the fear in his heart and responded in a low voice.

He secretly told himself that he was the Duke of Chengguo and the Honorable Jingnan. Even if Zhu Hou was unhappy with taking care of him, he would not do anything to him. At most, he would scold him.

"Really, then maybe I saw it wrong! I saw that you kept your head down and thinking, so I thought you had something to say to me?"

Zhu Houzhao said something meaningful, and then asked: "I wonder what Duke Cheng Guo thinks of the dismantling and rectification of the three major battalions?"

This is a fatal question. If you answer it well, the matter of instigating the Queen Mother to obstruct the reform will be over. If you don't answer it well, there should be one more farmer in Liaodong.

The title of Duke of Chengguo can be held by anyone with the surname Zhu, not necessarily Zhu Fu.

Zhu Fu was a smart man, and he immediately understood what Zhu Houzhao meant, and immediately said righteously: "The three major battalions of the capital have been in decay for a long time. I thought that your majesty asked Mr. Wang to dismantle and rectify the three major battalions. In fact, he was extremely wise and wise.

Sir, I wish I could personally participate in it and contribute to the reorganization of the Ming Dynasty’s elite.”

He had to say this. If he didn't follow Zhu Houzhao's wishes, he would be the Duke of Chengguo. There were many people from the Zhu family of Duke Chengguo who coveted the title of Duke of Chengguo. I believe those people would be happy to serve Zhu Houzhao.

work.

"Yeah?"

Zhu Houzhao smiled, and he didn't know whether it was sarcasm or satisfaction. In short, Zhu Fu's answer temporarily made him give up the idea of ​​doing anything to him. This product can still be used for the time being, so he might as well keep it to see the effects.

"I know the loyalty of Duke Cheng Guo. Since Duke Cheng is determined to contribute to the country, we might as well work with Mr. Wang Ge to dismantle and reorganize the three major battalions and retrain our Ming Dynasty with an elite force that is good at fighting."

With Zhu Fu as the leading party, it will definitely be much smoother to cleanse the three major camps of moths.

Zhu Fu deliberately refused and helped Wang Yangming rectify the three major camps. Then wouldn't he have to betray the Xungui Group and give up all his interests in the three major camps? He would generally not do such a thing that is not beneficial and offends others.

But when he looked up at Zhu Houzhao and looked at that indifferent and ruthless face, he really couldn't bring himself to resist and refuse. This young emperor had already proved how serious the consequences of resisting him would be with countless people's miserable endings.

No matter how noble you are, can you be more respected than Prince Ning? No matter how noble you are, can you be respected by the Jiangnan gentry group? No matter how powerful you are, can you be more powerful than the civil servant group?

He has no qualifications to resist Zhu Houzhao!

"My lord, I obey the order!"

In the end, he chose to surrender. The huge interests of the three battalions and the support of the Xungui Group were not important. What was important was to protect himself. He did not want to become a thorn in Zhu Houzhao's side or a thorn in his flesh.

Zhu Fu's resignation disappointed all the nobles. The three major battalions were a major source of income for them. Without the three major battalions, it would be difficult for them to develop new sources of income!

Everyone is full of resentment towards Zhu Fu, and Duke Cheng Guo, who is second only to the British Duke in the honorable group, is simply a waste.

They did not dare to attack Zhu Houzhao. They were a little stupid, but they were not hopelessly stupid. They knew that they could not compete with the emperor now, so they could only direct their anger at the leader, Zhu Fu, and did not give any advice.

They were just trying to get benefits, and they sold them off without any hesitation. They were really assholes in the extreme.

"This is the end of today's court meeting. Retreat from the court!"

Zhu Houzhao was quite satisfied with Zhu Fu's awareness of current affairs. Apart from the collective resignation of officials and a strike today, there were no other major issues to deal with, so he directly announced his withdrawal from the court.

...

After retiring from the court, Zhu Houzhao entered the mysterious space and prepared to chat with his ancestors. Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di, Zhu Gaochi, and Zhu Zhanji were all capable emperors. It would not hurt him to learn more from them.

As soon as they entered the mysterious space, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di, Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Zhanji, and Zhu Qizhen were all here, and there were three more people.

Emperor Jingtai——Zhu Qiyu.

Emperor Chenghua——Zhu Jianshen.

Emperor Hongzhi——Zhu Youtang.

"father!"

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but exclaimed. Although he had expected Emperor Hongzhi to come in, he still couldn't help being a little surprised when he saw Emperor Hongzhi with his own eyes.

"Who are you....."

Zhu Youtang looked at Zhu Houzhao carefully. Although he was not from the same world, Zhu Houzhao still gave him an unusually warm feeling. It was like father and son were connected by blood and could not be separated by time and space.

"Dad, I am Zhu Houzhao..."

"father......"

"Brother Royal..."

Zhu Houzhao and Emperor Hongzhi, Emperor Hongzhi and Emperor Chenghua, Emperor Chenghua and Zhu Qizhen, and then there was another family recognition meeting. You came and I went back and forth, and it was not easy to sort out the relationship.

"Are you really my photo?"

Zhu Youtang couldn't help but ask again. It was difficult to associate the heroic and domineering young man in front of him with his naughty son.

"Although it is not the same world, I am indeed Zhu Houzhao, the son of Zhu Youtang, the Hongzhi Emperor, and the Zhengde Emperor, the tenth emperor of the Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Houzhao chuckled.

Then he thought of a person who made him hate him so much that he said murderously: "Dad, I will buy you a person for 50 million taels of silver!"

Fifty million taels of silver to buy a person?

Emperor Hongzhi Zhu Youtang was shocked. When did the emperor of the Ming Dynasty become so rich? Or in Zhu Houzhao's era, the Ming Dynasty's economy had achieved unprecedented development, and the Ming Dynasty's treasury and royal family's internal funds had become abundant?

Not to mention Zhu Youtang, even Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di couldn't help but be stunned. Fifty million taels of silver bought a person. How rich did Zhu Houzhao have to be to do such a wasteful behavior?

Seeing Zhu Houzhao's arrogant appearance of not treating money as money, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di became even more passionate about Fusang Shi Jian Yinshan. If you have money, you can be willful. With enough money, Zhu Yuanzhang may build a new Ming Dynasty, or Zhu Di conquers Mobei.

No matter what, it's not a problem at all.

"Zhu Houzhao, who are you going to buy for 50 million taels?"

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but ask, thinking that he might be able to do this deal. With fifty million taels of silver, how much could he do? Rebuilding dilapidated Yangzhou and supporting Xu Da's Northern Expedition would not only be enough, but also provide a large number of people.

surplus.

Zhu Di and others also set their sights on Zhu Houzhao, wondering who could actually make Zhu Houzhao offer the sky-high price of 50 million taels. Li Shanchang, Liu Bowen, Yao Guangxiao, and Yu Qian are probably not worth this price!

"Liu Daxia!"

Zhu Houzhao gritted his teeth and said a name that was extremely unfamiliar to Zhu Yuanzhang and others, and extremely familiar to Emperor Hongzhi. He was filled with murderous aura, and he wished he could immediately cut Liu Daxia's body into thousands of pieces.

Liu Daxia? I don’t know him!

Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di and others were all confused. They couldn't figure out what Liu Daxia was capable of. He could actually make Zhu Houzhao, who never wanted to suffer in front of their ancestors, pay a sky-high price of 50 million taels to buy him. He also looked like he wanted to buy him.

It looks like it was eaten alive.

Emperor Hongzhi also couldn't figure out why Liu Daxia offended Zhu Houzhao, who was one of the heroes who assisted him in achieving the resurgence of Hongzhi. He had always been loyal to the country and diligent in serving the people.

Fifty million taels, such a huge number, was actually used to buy an old man Liu Daxia. Zhu Houzhao's hatred for Liu Daxia was truly terrifying.
