"One million pocket money, are you kidding..."

When they heard that Zhu Cihong gave Chongzhen one million taels of pocket money, Queen Yi'an and Queen Zhou both widened their eyes in disbelief.

The treasury was so poor that it starved to death, and Chongzhen's internal funds were completely empty. How could the prince have so much money?

He actually asked for one million taels, and it will be directly increased to five million taels tomorrow. Is there anything wrong with this kid's brain?

Chongzhen turned over and looked at the silver note carefully, and found that it was indeed one million taels of silver. While he was shocked, Chongzhen was also very pleased, which showed that the prince still cared about his emperor.

However, Chongzhen still handed the banknote to Zhu Cixiang:

"Your Majesty, my father accepts your wish. The Ming Dynasty needs money everywhere, not only to provide disaster relief but also to develop the army. My father does not want your money, so use it for disaster relief!"

After all, Chongzhen was the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Although he had handed over power to Zhu Cihong, it was impossible for Zhu Cixiang to kill so many officials without even saying hello.

Zhu Cixiang waved his hand, sat down next to Chongzhen and said:

"Father, please accept the money. Your Majesty has something to report to you. The petitioner has been killed by your Majesty, and four former cabinet ministers have come to the capital not far away to take command.

Wang Yingxiong had a slightly better character and was spared by the emperor. Three of them were also killed. The Jin Yiwei were rushing to Suzhou and Henan, preparing to raid the families of Qian Qianyi, Zhou Yanru and Zhang Zizi.

The nobles of nine families took bribes and took advantage of their free wages to occupy millions of acres of land, and tried to assassinate the emperor. The emperor had already killed three of their families in Tai Temple, but the father could rest assured that several nobles had iron coupons to avoid death.

The emperor left one person behind for them.

This time, a total of more than 8,000 corrupt officials, gentry and noble families were killed, and about 10 million taels of gold and silver were recovered from their homes. This did not include the families of Qian Qianyi, Zhou Yanru, and Zhang Zifa, three former cabinet ministers.

.

Father, the emperor is not killing innocent people indiscriminately. Every one of them deserves to die, and destroying the nine tribes will not be a loss. The emperor has posted evidence of their corruption and land occupation everywhere in the capital."

Zhu Cixiang said this and pushed the banknote handed over by Chongzhen:

"So, the emperor is not short of silver at present, and this one million taels will be regarded as the emperor's filial piety to you. If the emperor is short of silver one day, there are tens of millions of taels of silver waiting for the emperor to copy it in Shanxi."

Before Zhu Cixi finished speaking, Emperor Chongzhen blurted out:

"Eight major Shanxi merchants?"

Zhu Cixi nodded:

"Yes, they are worth at least 80 million taels of silver. Your Majesty is not planning to touch them for the time being. When the soldiers are trained next year, use their silver to destroy Jiannu. Good steel must be used on the blade!"

Zhu Cixiang's words made Chongzhen feel sad. Before the crown prince had no supervision over the country, both the Ming Dynasty's treasury and his own internal funds were extremely short of money. The total tax for the whole year was less than 5 million.

But all this changed after the crown prince took over the country. The crown prince never worried about money. When he was short of money, he immediately killed a group of corrupt officials, and when he was short of money, he copied a group of nobles. Money can be obtained at any time.

For example, now, he clearly knows that there are still tens of millions of taels of silver in Shanxi waiting for him to copy, but the prince can't use this money for the time being and continues to keep it in Shanxi merchants' homes.

Where is this nonsense going to make sense? Emperor Chongzhen really doesn't know whether he is too stupid or the crown prince is too smart.

No matter what the crown prince does, he is better than me, the emperor.

Chongzhen felt that his vanity was shattered instantly, and the face he cared about most in his life fell to the ground.

There is really no place that can be compared with the prince. Fortunately, this person is his royal son.

Queen Zhou and Queen Yi'an listened to the two men chatting and felt the great changes between Emperor Chongzhen and the past. They both had happy smiles on their faces, and they looked like a family!

"Brother Emperor, you are finally here..."

At this time, Duke Zhu Wei of Kunxing and Prince Ding Zhu Cijiong came in. When they saw the eldest brother, the two children immediately ran towards Zhu Cihong.

Seeing Kun Xing and King Ding, Zhu Cixiang immediately took out two lollipops:

"Come, come, my mother said that you are very good, and the eldest brother will be rewarded!"

When they saw the lollipop, the two children’s eyes immediately lit up:

"Hee hee, there are lollipops to eat again, Brother Da Huang is the best!"

Zhu Cixiang did not hand the lollipop to the two of them immediately, but handed it over with a smile on his face:

"Come on, whoever can kiss the eldest brother the fastest can score two more points..."

"right……"

Before Zhu Cixiang finished speaking, Kunxing Princess Zhu Weimao's small lips were immediately printed on Zhu Cixiang's face, and her movements were much faster than Zhu Cixiang's...

After the kiss, Princess Kunxing snatched the lollipop from Zhu Cixiang's hand, and did not forget to tease Zhu Cijiong:

"Hehe, the second brother is the stupidest. He can't do anything as fast as the elder sister..."

Prince Ding Zhu Cijiong didn't care about his sister. He smiled silly, hugged Zhu Cihong's head and kissed her:

"Cijiong knows that he is stupid, so if he doesn't compete with his sister in speed, the eldest brother can just give his brother a lollipop..."

Zhu Cixi smiled and said:

"Hehe, the emperor is joking with you all the same..."

Zhu Cixiang shook his hands as he spoke, and a large pile of lollipops suddenly appeared on the table.

Zhu Cijiong's eyes suddenly straightened:

"Wow, it's so much, even the two little brothers have to eat it. Can the elder brother eat it for the two little brothers? When we grow up, we will help you fight together..."

"Of course, we are all a family and we have to take care of each other. Go quickly!"

Seeing their three children being so sensible, Queen Yi'an and Queen Zhou both smiled happily. Chongzhen was happy but also very relieved.

At this time, Zhu Cixiang was the innocent child in the eyes of his parents, and there was no clue that he was a famous little killer!

The two younger brothers Zhu Cijiong mentioned were Zhu Cijiang and Zhu Cihuan. They were born to Concubine Tian Guifei. They were also two tragic figures in history.

At this time Li An, the eunuch in charge of Kunning Palace, came in and reported:

"Your Majesty, the royal meal in the royal dining room is ready. Can we serve it?"

Queen Zhou nodded:

"Okay, there are a lot of people today, let Yushan serve more dishes!"

"According to the order!"

Li An received the order and was about to exit when Chongzhen suddenly asked:

"Wait a minute, the carp I caught will come with me!"

"According to the order!"

"Father, Queen and Mother, something serious has happened..."

Suddenly Princess Kunxing and King Ding came back in a hurry shouting:

Chongzhen couldn't help but frown. As a prince and princess, there was no rule in shouting like this. These two children still need to be trained well.

Queen Zhou's face also darkened slightly:

"What are your names? Have you forgotten your mother's usual teachings?"

The two children's faces turned ugly when they saw their father and mother. They immediately realized that they were being rude, and their little faces turned pale with fright.

Zhu Cixiang didn't care, he felt something happened, otherwise Princess Kunxing and Prince Ding wouldn't have called out to their father and mother.

Zhu Cixi stepped forward and took the hands of his sister and brother, smiled slightly and said:

"Brothers and sisters, don't be anxious. Tell me what happened to the eldest brother. Maybe the eldest brother can help you!"

Princess Kunxing secretly glanced at her father and mother, and then whispered in Zhu Cixiang's ear:

"My little brother is sick, and I heard from the imperial doctor that he might die soon..." I like the Ming Dynasty, and the prosperous age begins with the Prince Supervising the Kingdom.
