The result was that King Lu still couldn't get into the water. Only Wanli/Bailang could wear a pair of underpants and play in the water. The Jin Yiwei rowed a boat and followed with a sheepskin float. There was a cool breeze on the shore, and King Lu looked at the waves like white stripes.
Wanli's eyes were filled with fire, "Your Majesty, please let me go down too." He was teasing Empress Dowager Li to let him go into the water to play.
There was also an elder in the court who was working in Xiyuan. Hearing about this incident, he rushed over to remonstrate. However, the emperor just pretended not to hear and had fun in the water - Bailang held his breath and dived more than a hundred meters underwater.
, which directly frightened the Queen Mother, the elders, and the father-in-law. "Oh, if I weren't afraid of being scared to death and no one would work, I could run through the entire Haizi in one breath."
It was a pity for Bailang. He could only hold up his arms on the shore after swimming freestyle. The palace maid had already prepared absorbent cotton and linen cloth and rushed up to wrap Bailang up and wipe the water off his body. Bailang walked in and used water on all sides.
A pavilion with a pot of charcoal fire lit in the middle was surrounded by cotton cloth, and the palace maid helped him change into full casual clothes - of course, she gave him a bath before that, and the hot water was always ready for him.
This emperor is in really good health. He probably has the same physical condition as Taizu and Chengzu, and he must be stronger than Wuzong. In terms of temperament, he seems to be similar to Shizong now - he is also a cornerman who wants to live in Xiyuan. King Lu finally managed to
It was a success. In the thigh-deep pool specially fenced off on one side, the prince put on his underpants and soaked in it.
This is the maximum limit that Queen Mother Li can accept her little son playing in the water. "It's a pity that he can only swim in the doll pool." Bailang muttered and didn't pay much attention. He was currently inspecting Xiyuan, because after more than a year of renovation and construction,
The entire Xiyuan, also known as Zhongnanhai in later generations, has been completely renovated. This man moved the entire harem to Xiyuan with great fanfare.
The day before the court meeting, Bai Lang would return to the Forbidden City to spend the night. After the meeting, he would stay in Xiyuan. The first order of the move to Xiyuan was to release the palace maids. He would reward the palace maids with money and silk from the palace, and let them go home to be married.
Another sum of money was spent. The recruitment of eunuchs was also said to be suspended for three years, and the gap for palace maids was directly replaced by recruitment. It was the same as private servants, with a three-year contract and monthly payments.
"Maybe it will save money this way." Bai Lang is planning to reduce the staff. He thinks that the entire Forbidden City can be cleaned up with just a thousand palace maids and eunuchs - don't forget that there are also temporary handymen recruited. There are thousands in the entire Xiyuan.
People are enough for expenses. However, the establishment of eunuchs has never been an economic issue, but an issue of the emperor's control of the country's political territory.
Zhang Juzheng is not dead yet. As Zhenhai Zijinliang, he suppresses the entire court. There may have been people who opposed him before, but after seeing this person who was demoted and moved to another place and the emperor said that he did a good job, everyone died.
I'm worried - anyway, if you, Uncle Zhang, have the guts to live like a bastard for hundreds of years? Anyway, you will die in ten or twenty years at most. Young people can just bear with it.
Bailang really didn't know that Zhang Juzheng actually had dermatitis, and that he had adopted a radical treatment plan - probably because his self-confidence was too inflated. Anyway, when he received the news that Zhang Shoufu had passed away later, he posted
He was stunned, "What? Did he die from cardiac shock due to excessive blood loss? I'm calling you a widower. It's okay to use your zhenqi to die." Bai Lang said something that others couldn't understand.
Some people in the court were worried about mourning, but some were laughing because "Blue Sky" was about to appear. The mountain above had collapsed, and a large number of brats below would have to be replaced. So the next day, the so-called list of Zhang Juzheng's funeral committee was to be issued.
, this matter is easy to handle, as long as all the cabinet ministers are involved, plus a few supervisors and supervisors. This is definitely a national event.
By the way, Bai Lang secretly scolded Zhang Juzheng again, "Why don't you tell me first about the treatment of the disease? Is it difficult for the emperor to come and hang up his life? Do you know how much trouble Zhang Juzheng will bring to Wanli if he hangs up like this?"
?Not to mention the workload alone, it went from zero to eighty or ninety in one go. On weekdays, Bai Lang would try to impart some internal health skills to this big boss, but this big boss was only interested in his mother's double cultivation.
.
Zhang Juzheng didn't have time to learn this kind of thing that is used to sharpen the bones, adjust the breath, and refine the qi. So he still took medicine. Bai Lang really didn't know how to make medicine, otherwise he would have found the so-called "Uncle Master" if he had known it.
"I'm going to get some elixirs. I want to take one. Zhang Juzheng will live to be at least 120 years old."
Now I can only lament. By the way, I gave the Prime Minister of Taiyue a Wenzheng title, which is regarded as a mutual benefit between the king and his ministers. Not to mention that the Prime Minister of Taiyue worked hard for ten years and indeed left a big legacy for the Ming Dynasty. The national treasury actually had a surplus.
, there are tens of millions of dan of grain in Taicang. "The Ministry of Household Affairs actually has 11 million taels of silver, which can be considered a good job."
After that, Bai Lang had to take charge. He looked at the place used by Zhang Juzheng as a test field - it was surrounded by military guards around the Ming Dynasty. Here, the policy of dividing every farmer into an acre was implemented, and at the same time, he cleared the fields. As expected, the income
It has increased a lot. The key is that the burden on the farmers at the bottom is only more than 20% of the past. This has greatly promoted the growth of the population.
After the population increases, they can immigrate to the border areas, allowing the population to move towards the city, and business taxes can increase. "Serve in plain clothes, and stay out of court for three days." Bailang issued the first decree after taking office. When Zhang Juzheng was buried, Bailang was also considered a full
It is a great honor for the emperor and his ministers to be buried at the city gate.
It happened that the selection of the concubine was over at this time - I can't blame the Queen Mother and the concubines for not understanding current affairs. I can only say that Zhang Taiyue died at the wrong time. People always die suddenly. Bailang took a look, but he didn't expect that Concubine Zheng would take the lead.
——Anyway, if your surname is Zheng, then that’s probably it. These father-in-laws can’t do any good. They clearly said they wanted to be tall and slim, but in the end, more than half of the people selected still have traditional Ming Dynasty aesthetics.
"If it weren't for the sake of the fact that you still have to provide for everyone's daily meals, I would definitely give each of them a good beating." Bai Lang sighed. The thing that came out of the Shangshan Superintendent or the Guanglu Temple was a disaster.
Eat, now the Queen Mother and the concubines in the inner court rely on several father-in-laws who are in charge of rituals to provide food for them.
The chefs raised by these eunuchs are so good that Bai Lang tastes a bit like the eight major cuisines of later generations. There are still people in this world who also eat such exquisite food - Bai Lang said to Feng Bao, "Go and find some Yangzhou cuisines."
The cook from the salt merchant's house came and asked them to prepare food for the poor people. This Huaiyang cuisine is one of the best in the world."
Bai Lang has always liked state banquet cuisine, and this time he was ready to eat and drink enough to start dealing with the civil servant group, "I have to kill half of them."
