The atmosphere in the hall suddenly changed.
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened in anger.
Prince Liao, Prince Xiang, and Prince Dai couldn't help but tremble.
"It's over. Our eldest nephew has angered Imperial Father.”
"Keep your voice down. If Imperial Father looks over later, we'll all die.”
"Move back a little, leave me some space!”
“……”
Lee Shan Chang's face was pale. Zhu Xiong Ying was not just a grand grandson.
Furthermore, it was Huaixi Xun Gui's hope to continue living.
If Zhu Yuanzhang crippled Zhu Xiongying, then Huaixi's good days would come to an end.
Therefore, Li Shan Zhang hurriedly stood up and said,
"Your Majesty, Grand Sun is young and ignorant…"
"Enough! If you say that others are young and ignorant, I'll believe you, but Ying 'er, you're young and ignorant?”
If Zhu Xiongying was just an ordinary child, Zhu Yuanzhang would at most treat it as a child's joke.
He laughed and dealt with it.
It was true that Zhu Xiongying was almost eight years old, but even though he was eight years old, he knew everything.
He even knew more about the affairs of the court than the average minister.
But it was precisely because of this that Zhu Yuanzhang was sad.
Her eyes could not help but turn slightly red.
No one in the world can understand me, but you're my good grandson. If your father doesn't understand me, don't tell me you don't understand me either?!
"Grand Sun."
Zhu Xiongying did not expect that his words would cause such a big reaction from Zhu Yuanzhang.
However, this was not Zhu Yuanzhang's fault alone.
All the superstructures were determined by the economic base. When the world was just settled, the Central Plains had thousands of miles of fertile farmland that no one cultivated, but some places were overcrowded.
If the Ming Dynasty increased the business tax now, it would undoubtedly tell the world that business was profitable.
Who would be willing to leave their hometown? The tenants who lost their land would all go to do business, and the ten thousand mu of fertile farmland in the Central Plains would continue to be barren.
At that time, what was the use of having more money? After all, silver could not be eaten like steamed buns.
Ultimately, this was determined by the economic foundation of an agricultural country.
Originally, Zhu Xiongying still had a lot to say.
However, seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's reaction…
Zhu Xiongying could only swallow it.
After all, Da Ming wasn't an armchair strategist on the internet in the future.
"Imperial Grandfather…"
Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the dragon throne as if he had been drained of all his strength.
"Enough, I don't want to hear it now."
Prince Dai, Prince Xiang, and Prince Liao could not help but gasp at the same time.
"Damn it! His eldest nephew was fine even when he contradicted his father like this?”
"In the past, I only respected Big Brother. Now, I only respect Big Nephew!”
"Nephew Gu is mighty!"
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang like this, Huang Zicheng could not help but feel happy.
This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Zhu Yunwen had already gotten the standard answer, so he would definitely be able to please Zhu Yuanzhang.
Wait a minute, the standard answer?
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang's gaze had already fallen on Zhu Yunwen.
Huang Zicheng hurriedly said,
"Your Majesty…"
"Shut up! Yun Wen, tell me, how can we solve the financial crisis of the imperial court?”
Everyone's eyes were focused on Zhu Yunwen.
Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes. After hesitating for a long time, he began to recite the answer that Huang Zicheng had given him before.
"The country has just been established, and it's difficult to move forward..."
Zhu Yunwen was still standing in the main hall, reciting while shaking his head.
Little did they know that everyone present had beads of sweat on their foreheads.
"Grandson believes that only by making the people suffer and increasing the land tax for next year and the year after can the worries of the Imperial Court be resolved.”
The acting king raised his head in confusion and asked in a low voice,
"Why does this sound so familiar…?”
The moment the acting king raised his head, he saw Zhu Yuanzhang's murderous gaze.
She hurriedly lowered her head.
Everyone in the hall could not help but hold their breaths.
Huang Zicheng and the other civil officials were trembling in fear.
Even if you beat Lee Shan Chang to death, he would never have thought that things would develop like this!
No one made a sound.
Only Zhu Yunwen blinked and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang in confusion, then at Huang Zicheng.
A five-year-old child.
He didn't understand the meaning of the words at all.
All he knew was that he had completed the task Master Huang had given him without missing a single word.
Zhu Yunwen, who didn't know what had happened, even felt a little smug.
Zhu Yunwen's look of taking credit was more like a heavy punch to Zhu Yuanzhang's chest.
It's true that you're not an incompetent ruler.
But can you guarantee that your future rulers will all be wise rulers?
All they needed was a fool who was on par with Zhu Yunwen.
The Great Ming Empire was about to be usurped by the merchants.
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang could only feel the blood in his body rushing straight to his brain.
"Bastard, bastard!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's roar echoed throughout the hall.
Huang Zicheng looked at Zhu Yuanzhang in disbelief.
"Your Majesty…"
"Kneel down!"
With a thud, Huang Zicheng fell to his knees.
The people present were all officials who had been in the Ming Dynasty for more than ten years.
Being able to live for more than ten years, did he not know that if he said a single wrong word, he might be dragged out and beheaded?
Do you think you are Zhu Xiongying?
"Hualala-"
"We are guilty."
Everyone in the West Garden's Frosty Palace knelt down.
At this moment, the voice of Zhu Yunwen stopped at the small yellow door outside Guanghan Palace.
He immediately sent a signal to Lu Ben, who had been waiting outside Guanghan Palace.
Lu Ben, who had been waiting for a long time, became excited when he saw this. He even ran a few laps outside the hall to make himself breathless, pretending that he had just arrived at the West Court…
