Chapter 41 High spirited Zhou Guozhang
The many problems encountered by the Ming Dynasty under the Chongzhen Dynasty cannot be easily and thoroughly solved day by day.
The essence of governing a country is like cooking small fresh foods lies in controlling the temperature.
When it gets bigger, the taste becomes bad.
When it is small, it becomes a rice dish.
What Emperor Chongzhen had to do was to control the temperature, and to pick up the blade of righteousness, remove the withered vegetable leaves, cut off the rhizomes of Obito, and leave the best part.
If you want to eat delicious dishes, you must be patient enough.
"Queen... You have a dragon seed, so you must pay more attention. These are all for Brother Ying and the unborn prince."
"Queen... don't do these close-fitting clothes yourself. Just ask the people around you to help you..."
Emperor Chongzhen, who pointed out Zhu Chunchen, was in a good mood, so he simply stopped dealing with the government affairs and set up a Kunning Palace to see the Queen Zhou.
However, as soon as he arrived at Kunning Palace, Emperor Chongzhen heard an extremely familiar voice.
Stingy father-in-law!?
I heard this tone quite a lot.
It seems that the Huitong number has been opened.
The speed is really fast enough!
Emperor Chongzhen, who stood with his hands behind his back, narrowed his eyes slightly and thought secretly. Has he understood all the things he taught Zhou Kui so quickly?
Han Zanzhou, who was accompanying him, saw his emperor standing there, and did not dare to say much, nor did he dare to move. Who knew that the emperor's favor for the queen was absolutely nothing to say.
"Ahem~"
Han Zanzhou, who ignored the random thoughts, Emperor Chongzhen coughed twice and walked towards the main hall. Zhou Kuina's endless instructions came to an abrupt end!
"I've seen Your Majesty."
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
Emperor Chongzhen, who walked into the main hall, saw that Empress Zhou was about to salute, so he hurriedly walked forward, saying, "No need to be polite, but he ignored Zhou Kui who bowed with his hands."
Can this stingy father-in-law have a wife who holds his hands and grows up with her old age?
"Empress, you are pregnant, you must be more careful." Emperor Chongzhen supported Empress Zhou and said with concern: "If you see me in the future, you don't have to polite me. This is my imperial edict. Do not disobey.
It alarmed the fetal air."
"yes."
Queen Zhou, whose cheeks were slightly red, lowered her head and responded.
“…”
Zhou Kui bowed and maintained his posture, and his waist suddenly felt a little sore. Oh... I knew it would have been today, I should have been taking some control a few days ago.
Isn’t it just that the Huitong number in Beijing has opened, so there is no need to be so happy.
"Mr., please give me no gift."
Seeing the stingy father-in-law who was trembling and holding the Queen of Zhou, Emperor Chongzhen, when he saw him, he smiled and said, "What kind of happy event has the father-in-law encountered?"
As soon as I came to Kunning Palace, I heard the voice of the father-in-law. It sounded quite a bit like a man talking about a young man, haha~”
Zhou Kui, whose old face turned red, smiled embarrassedly, straightened his waist. His old waist was really useless. When he sat, he was still fine. After bent for a while, he became sore.
"Father... are you okay?" Seeing that Zhou Kui's expression was wrong, Empress Zhou asked with concern: "Otherwise, the imperial physician will come to you..."
"The Queen who doesn't get in the way."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Kui waved his hand and smiled: "I am a little excited when I see Your Majesty, but my body is not damaged."
Excited to see me?
Stingy father-in-law, you are not honest!
“Haha~”
Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "Bestie, do you have any happy events? Do you want to tell me?"
Emperor Chongzhen didn't care about his stingy father-in-law's private life, and even if he had a brother-in-law for himself, it would be fine.
What he cares about is the matter of the pass number.
"Yes, look at the old minister's memory, it's really forgetful."
Zhou Kui was mentioned by Emperor Chongzhen and nodded quickly, but he secretly complained in his heart, "Oh, I'm so energetic that I shouldn't have come to see the queen."
I originally wanted to get some things, care about my daughter, and then explore the wind to see if I could call her daughter and blow the wind beside her pillow.
Now this remittance number has been opened in Beijing, and the results are quite good.
If you want to open up all the prefectures, prefectures and counties under the rule of Northern Zhili, it would not work without a title to support you.
"Your Majesty...you can chat with your father here. I will go and see Brother Ying." Seeing that his father had something to talk about, Empress Zhou said to Emperor Chongzhen.
Empress Zhou was too clear about her father's situation. She was almost crazy about her desire to get a title, but she didn't want to get too involved in this matter.
After all, the title of the Ming Dynasty was so easy to be granted.
"Okay, the queen is slower." Emperor Chongzhen smiled slightly and said, "Han Zanzhou, you all go with the queen. I have something to do, so I want to ask the father-in-law."
"Here!"
Zhou Kui, who was a little careful, heard this and saw his daughter slowly walking out of the main hall. Han Zanzhou, who was following him, thoughtfully closed the door of the palace after all the palace ladies went out.
"squeak……"
The slowly closed door made Zhou Kui feel nervous.
"Brother-in-law...what happened to what I asked you to do?"
Emperor Chongzhen, who was sitting down, took a casually picking up the teacup, took a sip, and said to Zhou Kui: "Why haven't you submitted a memorial to me during this period?"
"Old minister..."
Zhou Kui became nervous and stuttered a little. He looked at Emperor Chongzhen and said, "The Huitong number was built in Chongbeifang in the capital.
The results are pretty good and quite gratifying.
I have already deposited more than 30,000 taels of silver, and I borrowed 21,89 taels of silver from the mortgage. The old minister thought that this small result would not be alarmed by Your Majesty.
I thought of waiting for the capital to open two more semicolons, and after setting up a semicolon in Tongzhou, I would report this matter in detail to Your Majesty.”
"Um."
Emperor Chongzhen nodded and praised: "My father-in-law's errands are well done, and in terms of manpower, we should screen and train more.
You are more at ease than outsiders, right?
In fact, I know that if my father-in-law doesn't say it.
I won't repeat the extra words.
If the father-in-law can open all the prefectures and counties in northern Zhili, the books will be benign and there will be no bullying or dominating the market.
I can grant that count."
Stingy is also a kind of ability. Such people are generally greedy for money and are afraid of death. If they use the right place, they can play an unexpected role.
In the Ming Dynasty during the Chongzhen Dynasty, many people created gods, and Emperor Chongzhen didn't mind being a god-creating person himself, such as... he made Zhou Kui a god of wealth among the Ming Dynasty.
Zhou Kui, who was frightened, showed an incredible expression when he heard this, and then hurriedly bowed: "Don't worry, your Majesty, the old minister will definitely live up to the holy grace!"
"I hope my father-in-law can really help me share my worries."
