Zhu Yunwen was shocked. He was very sensitive to the word 'son' that Zhu Yuanzhang mentioned.
He still remembered what happened last time.
He didn't know which uncle had given him a set of clothes and a tattered teapot, but his grandfather really cared about it.
He was squatting in the imperial kitchen to cook noodles, but he didn't receive a single compliment from him.
He still remembered this matter clearly!
Someone was fighting with him for his filial piety towards his Imperial Grandfather. This made him feel a sense of crisis.
When the imperial grandfather asked him to think of a way to solve the Ministry of Revenue's lack of money, he had worked even harder, wanting to prove himself through this matter.
However, he did not expect…
All the memorials he had proposed had been rejected by his grandfather and he had even reprimanded him.
He stood in the middle of Fengtian Inner Hall. Although he had his head lowered, he could feel his grandfather's gaze. It was filled with disappointment.
This made him purse his lips and feel depressed.
However, who knew that this was not over
Imperial Grandfather had personally said that the countermeasure in his hands was thought of by his son?!
The countermeasure that he thought of was that his son had seen the drawbacks in advance and disliked it.
And he was proud of it and regarded it as the best policy.
Zhu Yunwen was very sensitive.
Another son?
His last son had cut off his filial piety?
This son overthrew his own petition?
He could clearly feel the affirmation of his grandfather's filial piety towards his son.
He could also clearly feel the importance and pride that his grandfather had for his son!
Proud?
Zhu Yunwen pursed her lips and walked out of Fengtian Inner Hall with her head lowered.
Grandfather had never been proud of him.
Thinking of this, his heart trembled again, and jealousy rose in his heart.
Why did he only give a tattered teapot and a piece of ordinary luxurious clothes, and he received the recognition of his filial piety from Imperial Grandfather?
Why did he only raise a business tax and let those lowly merchants have a position that was clearly disadvantageous to my Great Ming, but they still became the pride of Imperial Grandfather?
Why?
Why was this?
He roared in his heart and clenched his fists tightly as he walked toward the Eastern Palace with a gloomy face.
At this moment, he only had one thought in his mind. He really wanted to know who Imperial Grandfather's two sons were.
.......
"The Emperor is still so overbearing."
"The matter of the business tax has already been settled by the emperor. The location has been chosen. We'll just follow it.”
"That's good too. If anything happens in the future, we won't take the blame.”
"What problem could there be? Milords, look at the various considerations in this. It's quite meticulous.”
"Ai, if we had known that the emperor already had this solution, why would we have come here to cause trouble?”
The Minister of Revenue, Zhang Qi, the Hanlin Scholar, Liu Sanwu, and the Minister of Personnel, Lu Ben, walked together and chatted softly.
"The person who proposed this method is really bold!”
"Actually, I really want to know who proposed this business tax.”
"Lord Liu, didn't the emperor just say that it was his son?”
"Let's think about it carefully. Actually, we can guess about 80 - 90%"
"Among the princes of Ming Dynasty, there are only a few capable ones. The only one who has experience and far-reaching thoughts is His Highness the King of Yan in Beiping.”
......
Their voices were very soft, but they still drifted into Zhu Yunwen's ears with the wind.
When he heard the two words 'King of Yan', he suddenly raised his head.
" Is it Fourth Uncle?!"
"It should be him!"
"I heard Mother mention that Fourth Uncle is capable and a fierce tiger.”
"Imperial Grandfather has said more than once that among these sons, the one who resembles him the most is Fourth Uncle.”
"When father was alive, he would respectfully submit and not dare to have any thoughts. But now that father is dead, does he want to compete with me for the position of Great Ming's Crown Prince?!”
"Fourth Uncle!"
Zhu Yunwen's face was extremely gloomy as she returned to the Eastern Palace.
In the Eastern Palace, Lady Lu had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing her son return, Madam Lu quickly went over and pulled his arm, saying seriously,"My son, in the future, you have to be more wary of the Prince of Yan, Zhu Di.”
Hearing this,
Zhu Yunwen suddenly raised her head and looked at her mother.
"Hmm? Fourth Uncle?"
Lady Lu's face darkened as she nodded heavily.
"My son, do you still remember that the old master received a purple teapot and a set of clothes from your son?" she continued.”
"Ever since you said it, I have been paying attention and sent people to investigate in secret.”
"Just now, Mother received accurate news that your Fourth Uncle has not been very honest recently. He has sent people to constantly move around the capital and give people some things.”
"What tea set, kettle, clothes, and so on.”
"Although it isn't anything good, it is highly praised and won the hearts of many.”
"So, now, I can be sure that the one who showed filial piety to the old master last time was definitely him!”
She said,
Zhu Yunwen's expression was extremely ugly. Her clenched fists began to crackle non-stop, and she muttered,"It was Fourth Uncle who showed filial piety to Imperial Grandfather last time.”
"It's him!"
"Yes, he is the same person!"
"Aaah!"
"Him again! It was him again! It's him again!"
Finally, the emotions that he had been suppressing in his heart for a long time could not be suppressed anymore and exploded.
Madam Lu grabbed his arm and suddenly broke free. She waved her arm and activated the smashing mode.
Angry and aggrieved cries and roars could be heard from the Eastern Palace.
