Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but stare at Chen Rong when he heard this, as if he wanted to know his opinion.

Chen Rong smiled calmly. Time flies. Now Chen Rong is no longer as free as she was when she was in Ningbo. At this moment, he has become more calm and confident. Seeing Ye Chunqiu looking at him, he couldn't help but slowly telling his thoughts.

"The article does have many strange things. I think there are some exaggerations. For example, if you calculate this Xing Prince's Mansion in three hundred years and twenty generations, it means that the descendants will be prosperous in the future. In the future, there will be thousands of auxiliary lieutenants, hundreds of auxiliary generals, various royal titles, and the amount of rice and grain received every year. In this way, it is said that this time the salary will be reduced, and in two or three hundred years, the court will save the treasury expenses of the court in one year."

"Although such an algorithm is exaggerated, it is the truth. I believe Mr. Li's intention is to use this to awaken the people of the world and tell them that the imperial court can no longer afford to support this royal family."

Speaking of this, Ye Chunqiu smiled and Li Dongyang took action.

Taking advantage of the east wind of the Xingwang Mansion's salary, Li Dongyang obviously wanted to do this at one time. Instead, he started from the bottom of the public opinion and used many shocking numbers to tell the people of the world that the Ming Dynasty's finances had deteriorated to a point, and all the culprits were also put on the head of the royal family.

This is obviously his first step in his change. Of course, in fact, if we really want to talk about the finances of the Ming Dynasty, it is obvious that there are problems with the royal family taking the blame, because everyone is not a good person. Aren’t those scholars who do not have to pay taxes also accomplices? And those wealthy families who rely on people in the court to conceal the population and land. Isn’t that the reason?

In a sense, this was a group of people in the literati class, led by Li Dongyang, who were passing the blame, deliberately downplayed other profit-seekers, but pointed the finger at the royal family, with the purpose of self-evident.

When things got to the point, either the Ming Dynasty's finances went completely bankrupt, or they were just cutting their flesh, or they were cutting their flesh, or the bureaucrats, or they were the royal family, and someone would always come to be this fat pig, and the royal family would be you.

Chen Rong sighed deeply, looked at Ye Chunqiu with some worries, and said seriously.

"I dare not agree to this article. I know a little about the matter in the capital. This article is because on the first day of the Lunar New Year, you were in the Spring and Autumn Festival and the King Xing Mansion. Once the article comes out, many people will definitely point the finger at the royal family. The royal family is definitely not a good-for-nothing lamp. I am afraid that Mr. Li is going to use you to attack the royal family, and the royal family will rebound. The first person he hates is the Chunqiu you. This is not a joke, because this salary is raised by you in the Spring and Autumn Festival."

He couldn't help but pause, and then reminded Ye Chunqiu in a very worried tone.

"If the royal family collectively cut off their salary, the consequences will be unimaginable. Taking money is like killing parents, then the entire Ming Dynasty royal family may be enemies of you."

Chen Rong's concerns are not unreasonable. At that time, there will be a lot of discussions in the world, and then the pressure from the temple will make the royal family breathless. There will be endless troubles in the future. At that time, the royal family will definitely find a punching bag. Who will this person be?

Ye Chunqiu looked at Chen Rong deeply and said gratefully.

"Brother Chen, I'll give you a brief explanation. This article has been published. If Mr. Li wants to use Taibaiji to exert influence, it may not be a bad thing. This shows that Mr. Li has seen the benefits of Taibaiji. Once Taibaiji has value that can be used, it will inevitably be supported by the court. At that time, why worry about not prospering?"

"But..." Chen Rong was still a little worried, and frowned deeply and wanted to say something.

"It's okay." Ye Chunqiu waved his hand immediately: "I know your worries. You are afraid that after publishing, the royal family will point all the hatred to me. Just as you said, the entire Ming royal family is enemies of me."

"Ha..." Ye Chunqiu smiled, with a bit of heroism, perhaps the effect of alcohol, he continued to say loudly.

"Actually, you still underestimate me? Once the royal family is under pressure, they will certainly be dissatisfied. But... people have the instinct to seek profit and avoid harm. For example, the Zhou royal family has long looked down on the grains provided by the royal family. They have shares in Zhenguo Mansion, and there are also many transactions in the Zhenguo Mansion. They are responsible for the supply and marketing of many goods in Kaifeng. The money they earn from Zhenguo Mansion every year is more than hundreds of thousands of taels of taels of silver."

"Look, what a huge number is. Then, you might as well imagine what would he choose if the King of Zhou was talking about the world and felt that the offering was insurmountable? He used to have two baskets of eggs, and one basket was about to be smashed. At this time, of course, he had to put the eggs into another basket tightly. This was a risk avoidance, but once the eggs were put into Zhenguo Mansion, think about it, he was afraid that he would be more willing to deal with me and would never be a traitor to me."

"Do you understand what I mean?" Ye Chunqiu was afraid that Chen Rong would be too worried about her, so he kept analyzing the situation of the Ming Dynasty royal family.

"As soon as these remarks were made and Mr. Li began to make arrangements, the royal family would inevitably be divided into two. For example, the royal family of King Zhou would rely more on Zhenguo Mansion, because Zhenguo Mansion would be their future guarantee.

They are more willing to take out money, raise horses outside the pass, open workshops, and conduct business. Only in this way can they protect the benefits and deal with risks. These people will become my greatest guarantee and will support me no matter what happens. While the other royal family members are also dissatisfied, they have no connection with Zhenguo Mansion in the past, but they have to try to invest in Zhenguo Mansion.

Of course, it is not ruled out that there will be some people who will never repent, and they may have to make things difficult for me, but so what? The King of Zhou will settle it for me, and the King of Zhao, Tan, and Chu will never let them oppose me."

"As a certain extent, excluding a salary will be beneficial to Mr. Li and me. If he can reverse the situation where the treasury is not enough to make ends meet, he will not lose a Wen Zhenggong in the future and be famous in history. Once the royal family members who are in the area and benefit from the local area will lose their security.
