After a while, he sighed softly and spoke again.

"I'm afraid this matter is far more serious than what Uncle Wu said."

"I'm afraid that we are not just walking on the cliff, but also on the thin rope. Even a breeze may cause the thin rope to break and cause a big disaster."

….

Zhu Yunxi nodded: "Chenliu County currently has 5,000 Yulin right guard troops commanded by Tang Bi. Taikang County will soon have 30,000 Beijing troops stationed. Behind Tongguan, there are three guards of the second uncle ready to go. It's just that

..."

Hearing that the matter really had something to do with his family, Zhu Shangbing couldn't help but raise his head and look at the two of them.

"Have the three guards from Prince Qin's Mansion arrived at Tongguan?"

Zhu Shangbing asked in a low voice.

Zhu Gaochi turned his head and said, "If you regret it, you still have time to get rid of your Beijing errands."

Zhu Shangbing immediately shook his head: "Forget it, the general guarding the Qin Palace is very good, I don't have that many ideas."

Zhu Gaochi glared at Zhu Shangbing and signaled the guy to stop interrupting randomly, then turned to look at Zhu Yunxi: "With more than 50,000 troops and horses, it can probably intimidate most people. There is also Yu Ma, although he has only been directly seen from above**

*As the governor of Henan, I think that with his methods, he can also contribute a lot. However, if the matter is really too involved, beyond what we think now, then everything will be unknown."

Zhu Yunxi waved his hand and took a sip of tea.

"Just tell me what you think. I never dare to make a conclusion easily."

Zhu Gaochi nodded and slapped his palm on the pile of documents.

"Officials from the six prefectures or various prefectures and counties in the Central Plains, local gentry and merchants, members of the White Lotus Sect in Shandong and north of Zhili, and our fifth uncle." Zhu Gaochi began to name names one by one, and his voice became slower and slower.

: "Perhaps, there are also F and Dao who are involved, and even local military camps."

Zhu Gaochi spoke solemnly, and Zhu Yunxi's face became gloomy when he heard it.

Zhu Shangbing, who had just been warned once, opened his mouth wide and couldn't help shouting: "Come on, there are no good people in the entire Central Plains!"

"When will there be no thieves in the world?" Zhu Yunxi sneered.

Zhu Gaochi added in a low voice from the side: "I feel that this kind of thing may not only happen in the Central Plains."

Zhu Shangbing was still immersed in the shock that there was no good person in the entire Central Plains. When he heard Zhu Gaochi say this again, his whole body suddenly became numb.

Zhu Gaochi continued: "Since last year, there have been many differences in the court. But at that time, we didn't think about these things. During the snow last winter, the court was originally worried that there would be exploitation and corruption in the local area.

Things happened, but unfortunately a few of them were not discovered. The only thing was the matter over at Dashengguan."

Having said this, Zhu Gaochi raised his head and looked at Zhu Yunxi opposite.

His face became more solemn and gloomy.

Zhu Gaochi whispered: "Speaking of it, these things can make sense now."

Zhu Yunxi nodded, his expression equally ugly: "Dashengguan Longquan Temple..."

"What on earth are you two talking about?"

Zhu Shangbing's eyes flickered back and forth between the two of them, and he couldn't understand it at all.

Zhu Gaochi sighed softly, but turned back to look at Zhu Shangbing, reached out and patted his shoulder, and said worriedly: "If it's really what Brother Xi and I think, I'm afraid your father is really going to be in trouble."

"Ah?" Zhu Shangbing opened his mouth: "My father hid in the Imperial Ancestral Temple for the whole winter last year. After the beginning of the new year, he was kicked out of the palace to work. Besides the emperor, what else could he be in trouble for?"<

/p>

….

Zhu Gaochi shook his head and turned to look at Zhu Yunxi.

The two of them spoke almost in unison.

"We ignored the Taoist temple outside the temple."

"What's wrong!" Zhu Shangbing stood up with an anxious expression on his face.

He said he didn't care whether his father Zhu Xi lived or died, but when things really went wrong, he would still worry.

Zhu Shangbing left his seat and paced back and forth: "How do you manage the affairs of Kaifeng Mansion and involve those tulv and Taoist priests again?"

Zhu Yunxi frowned and remained silent.

Zhu Gaochi sneered: "Fangwai Temple and Taoist Temple are not subject to taxes. This was a preferential treatment given when the dynasty was first established. In recent years, there has been some practice of donating money to avoid taxes, but I have never imagined whether it is possible.

They will not take a step back at all costs and only care about the interests of their own family."

Zhu Yunxi also said coldly at this time: "There is also the Song Palace and the Zhou Palace, which has more than 5,000 hectares of land to its name, but my fifth uncle told me personally that the palace only collects 10% of the output."

"They are so brave!"

Zhu Shangbing shouted, finally realizing the seriousness of the matter.

But very quickly, he discovered another loophole and exclaimed: "That's not right, now my father is in charge of the work of dividing the land between farmers and farmers, and the officials and gentry all pay the grain together. All the fields in the local area, no matter who the account is, are

It is for measurement and registration. No matter who you are, you must pay the two taxes according to the law. Even if they contribute, how can they avoid the two taxes?"

Zhu Gaochi walked up to Zhu Shangbing, raised his hand and patted his shoulder: "The tricks you can't think of may not be used by others."

"What should we do? Can't this matter be solved?"

Zhu Gaochi shook his head, turned around and looked at Zhu Yunxi, who was still thinking, and said in a deep voice: "If we go by the worst scenario, the current manpower is far from enough."

"What do you think?"

Zhu Gaochi paused for a moment, his brows condensing: "Come to the north, the north has been dealing with the remnants of the former Yuan Dynasty all year round, so it must not involve much. Deploy troops and horses, station them in Daming Mansion, control the east and west, and respond at any time."

Daming Mansion is located in the southernmost part of Beiping Dusi, with Shandong Road to the east and Henan Road to the west and south.

Zhu Gaochi made this the most prudent suggestion in view of the ambush Zhu Yunxi encountered in Xuzhou Mansion.

The troops from Beiping Dusi and Jiubian moved south to intimidate Shandong and Henan provinces. Once things started to get out of control, these troops could immediately respond and mobilize.

But when he made this proposal, Zhu Gaochi still had some concerns.

As the grandson of the emperor who oversees the country and the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, would Brother Xi be willing to let the troops from Jiubian and Peiping go south?

Zhu Yunxi didn't pause at all. He waved his hand and said directly: "You write the document and I will seal it."

Zhu Gaochi hummed, nodded and turned to look inside the room.

After searching for pen, ink and paper for a while, he began to write a document to be sent to Prince Yan's Mansion.

When the document was finished, Zhu Yunxi had already taken out his seal and stamped it on the document.

After the two of them have finished these things, they seal the documents into the envelope.

Zhu Shangbing whispered: "Then what are you going to do now?"

Passed

Zhu Shangbing has long understood the reality over the years that in front of these two people, he only needs to be obedient and do things, and he can just let the two of them do the things with his brain.

Zhu Yunxi also raised his head and looked at Zhu Gaochi with a questioning look.

After coughing slightly, Zhu Gaochi showed a smile and said: "Of course we go to Kaifeng City. You are the grandson of the emperor who oversees the country. You have received the emperor's order this time, holding the Emperor's Order in your hand, and you are patrolling the west and doing relief work. You should also go to Kaifeng City.

Let’s take a look at the situation."

"You and I have the same idea." Zhu Yunxi took the last sip of tea, stood up, and looked at Xiaopang with a smile on his face.

With the arrival of Xiaopang.

Things that had troubled me for a long time and had never been able to sort out were finally sorted out step by step.

Also with the arrival of Xiaopang, the time when I was trapped in Lanyang County by myself came to an end.

Kaifeng Fucheng.

That is where the real stage of the great drama of the Central Plains lies.

Everything should have been performed in that ancient capital of the Eight Dynasties.
