In the court.

Zhu Youtang had made the final decision, directly promoting a commoner to a rank 6 doctor of the Imperial Academy of Medicine!

How much trust did he have in Li Yanwen!

Li Yan was so excited that he forgot to thank him. It was only after the eunuch reminded him that he woke up from a dream.

"This commoner…This humble subject…This humble subject thanks the emperor for your great kindness!”

Zhu Youtang nodded." Stand up. When the cinchona tree is transported to the capital, you will have to work hard."”

In fact, Zhu Youtang had given Li Yanwen a reward for being a Rank-6 Imperial Physician, and his use was far more than that.

He had to let Li Yanwen quickly develop a way to deal with the plague to prevent a bigger disaster from coming!

After the court session.

Zhu Youtang returned to Yangxin Hall and summoned Li Yanwen alone.

After hearing this, Li Yanwen was flattered.

"This lowly subject greets the emperor. Long live my emperor!”

Zhu Youtang waved his hand." There's no need to salute, dear minister. Zhang Min, go and get a chair."”

"Beloved minister, please sit. I have something to tell you.”

Li Yanwen sat upright on the chair and listened to the holy words.

"Minister Li, you don't have to be so reserved. I still hope that you can save my country.”

"I wouldn't dare!" Li Yanwen hurriedly said. It is my duty to serve the emperor.”

Zhu Youtang said,"Has Minister Li heard of the plague?"”

Li Yanwen nodded." Since ancient times, there have been a few cases of plague in history, but the scale was not large."”

Zhu Youtang looked at him and said,"While researching the countermeasures for malaria, also research the countermeasures for plague!"”

"I will do my best!" Li Yanwen said solemnly.”

"I'm not doing my best, I'm definitely going to research it!" Zhu Youtang said solemnly.”

Li Yanwen was stunned and asked in confusion,"This lowly official is stupid, Your Majesty, this is…"

Zhu Youtang didn't answer.”

"This lowly subject obeys the decree!"

……

On the official road.

North Korea's diplomatic mission was about to enter the territory of North Zhili.

However, outsiders did not know that this group of envoys escorting the North Korean princess had been kidnapped. There were dozens of warriors mixed in the team!

Not only were these warriors proficient in Chinese, but they were also proficient in Korean. At this moment, they were mixed in with the North Korean diplomatic mission. Outsiders would not notice anything.

Along the way.

These dozens of warriors had been discussing how to kill the Great Ming Emperor.

As long as the new emperor of the Ming Dynasty died, the Japanese Peninsula would be at peace!

At that time, the emperor would also take over the entire island and achieve supreme authority!

They had no intention of returning alive this time!

Killing Zhu Youtang was their only goal!

As long as this great goal was achieved, the countries around the Japanese islands would definitely submit to the Emperor!

……

Far away in Annan.

Wu Si Zang hasn't gone south to attack the Annan chieftain.

They were weighing the pros and cons.

Even though the Ming Emperor wanted them to send troops to attack Annan, they still hesitated.

This group of chieftains was too difficult to deal with. Moreover, Annan was covered in miasma. If things went wrong, they might lose a large number of troops!

In the end, Wu Si Zang decided to send over a thousand soldiers south, giving the Ming Emperor face, and also not letting the warriors of Wu Si Zang suffer excessive casualties!

Guangxi Command Department.

The Vermilion Bird's brows furrowed deeply, and his entire body emitted a murderous aura.

"Impudent!"

"A mere chieftain is actually so rampant!”

Early this morning, Vermillion Bird received orders from the cabinet and immediately sent people to the Annan chieftain to request the Annan people to take the initiative to cut down the cinchona tree and hand it over to the Guangxi commander.

However, the chieftain of Annam refused, using the excuse that the cinchona tree was an Annam tree!

"What do you mean by their national tree? Motherf * cker! Your Annan is my Great Ming's territory! What do you mean by your national tree?"

"Mobilize the troops!" the Vermilion Bird shouted. He wanted all the soldiers to remember what this cinchona tree looked like! Go deep into Annan and cut down the tree!”

The cabinet repeatedly ordered that this tree could cure malaria.

The Emperor attached great importance to this tree, and this was the first time he had been transferred to the Guang Xi Capital as a commander. If he couldn't even handle such a small matter, he could return to the capital and plead guilty!

……

When the people in the imperial court heard the arrogant words of the Annan chieftain, they were shocked.

The Hall of Heaven's Tribute was in an uproar!

Minister of War Liu Daxia stepped forward and shouted angrily,""Just because this Annan has the Heavenly Valley Forest, he has no regard for the imperial court! They even claimed that the Cinchona Tree was their national tree?”

"Where did they come from? Where did this national tree come from?"

All the officials were furious!

Zhu Youtang looked at the officials and said casually,""The Vermilion Bird will take care of it."

"Zhen would like to ask, has Commander Wu Sizang sent out his troops?”

Zhu Youtang didn't say anything, and the officials hadn't thought of this matter yet.

After Zhu Youtang finished speaking, Liu Daxia suddenly blushed."Replying to the Emperor…Wu Si Zang sent a thousand men deep into Annan.”

"Good!" Zhu Youtang sneered. You can still give me some face, not bad!”

A commander-in-chief with more than a million soldiers actually told me that they did not have any soldiers and sent a thousand people to Annan to attack?

Do you think I'm a fool?

This commander-in-chief, whose army accounted for one-third of the population, was quite ambitious!

Zhu Youtang remembered this matter expressionlessly.

"Li Min."

"I'm here!" Li Min, the Minister of Revenue, stepped forward.”

"How much silver is left in the treasury this year?" Zhu Youtang asked.”

Li Min was shocked. In the past, when Zhu Youtang asked about the silver in the national treasury, it was likely that Zhu Youtang was going to send troops.

"Your Majesty, with the tribute from North Korea, the national treasury now has fifteen million taels of silver.”

The country needed money too much.

Although Zhu Youtang had already saved and saved, coupled with various reforms, as the population increased, the expenditure of the country increased day by day.

This amount of money was naturally not enough to start a large-scale war!

Even though Zhu Youtang would often spend more than ten million taels of silver to confiscate property, the various expenses of the court were too huge.

It was already very powerful for the national treasury to be able to store so much silver without any external debt!

But Zhu Youtang still felt that it was not enough!

"From today onwards, I plan to open a bank. The money of the people can be deposited into the bank set up by the imperial court, and the imperial court will give them profits.”

"Your Ministry of Revenue will discuss a plan for me and submit it to the cabinet for approval tomorrow!”

The embryonic form of the imperial bank had existed in the Song Dynasty. Wang Anshi's reform of the Qing Miao Law was the embryonic form of private lending.

It was just that the policies at that time were not perfect, which eventually led to the collapse of the Song Dynasty's financial system.

After hundreds of years of development, Da Ming now had the ability to deal with the collapse of the financial system.

The officials did not know Zhu Youtang's intention, but the Minister of Revenue did not dare to ask."This lowly subject obeys the decree!"

Zhu Youtang did not explain much. After the Ministry of Revenue discussed the specific regulations, they would understand what I wanted to do!
