I am the king of the dead

Ran Siniang lazily turned over, covered her body with the quilt, and said in a muffled voice: "Husband, I will not serve His Majesty for dinner today, take a good rest."

Zhu Qiyu nodded in agreement, but he didn't fully agree, he looked at Ran Siniang and said with a smile: "I still have to eat, and the palace servants will bring it later. It's okay not to eat, and I won't have the strength to serve me even if I don't eat."

Ran Siniang shrank her little head back under the quilt, and shouted loudly: "Husband! Big villain! You're teasing me again!"

After Zhu Qiyu left, Ran Siniang poked her head out of the bed and breathed a sigh of relief. Normally, the ladies of Tai'an Palace served together, especially since His Majesty mostly lived in the Queen's Huae Building, so she didn't think much of it. Now that she was the only one, she was a little bit I can't take it anymore.

If you can't bear it, you have to eat. The Tai'an Palace United Front is watching her from behind, and no one can take advantage of it.

She planned to add some anti-swelling medicine to her rosy complexion.

As soon as I arrived in Xuzhou, I was swollen. I have to wait for a long time on this journey. If I don’t prepare some medicine, how can I bear it?

She also has a little food for taste, and also a little greedy for pleasure. This body will get better sooner, and the earlier Chenghuan will be.

Zhu Qiyu walked out of the dormitory of the palace, and saw that Xing'an had already been waiting outside the courtyard.

"The spring night is bitter and the days are high. From now on, the king will not go to court early, as expected." Zhu Qiyu looked at the sun and said to Xing'an.

His Majesty didn't like having so many people behind him, and the ones serving him were only two or three palace eunuchs in Xing'an and Tiqi who were in charge of guarding.

Xing'an hurriedly said: "Look at what your majesty said, your majesty is diligent, and even the academicians of the Imperial Academy can't fault it. It's not easy for your majesty to have a chance to breathe during the southern tour. You should rest more."

This is the right way to relax. Your Majesty is so busy all day long that sometimes he doesn't even come back to Tai'an Palace. Sometimes Xing'an is quite worried.

When Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty first came to the throne, he was also diligent and created a prosperous Kaiyuan era in which "nine days are closed and the palace is opened, and all nations are dressed in clothes and crowns".

However, the emperor is also a human being. He is busy all day long and will eventually get bored. Tang Xuanzong began to be indolent in his administration in his later years.

Zhu Qiyu waved his hands again and again and said: "That's not good, I have to let these clean people find some problems. Let me think about it... I have it!"

"Tomorrow, a decree will be sent to Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Qianhu, Guangxi and other places, ordering them to plant a camellia tree in every state and county."

"Concubine Yiqi Juechen laughed, no one knew it was lychee, Si Niang wanted the camellia tree to make medicinal oil, so I would do something absurd and let them impeach me too."

"Let the censors and governors of all provinces pay attention to see who will double down on my order and turn it into something similar to the birthday guide in the late Northern Song Dynasty."

Asking the states and counties to present camellia trees is naturally a bait, and the winter sequence has come, and all kinds of guys who wait for the opportunity to counterattack because of the summer sequence dormancy, I am afraid it will be difficult to restrain their restless heart.

Xing'an looked at His Majesty who was eager to try, and seemed not to care, and said: "Your Majesty is not greedy for extravagance, and has always been frugal. This suddenly makes the states and counties pay tribute tea trees. Naturally, the states and counties are doing their best, and there will probably be some troubles. Come as a testimony of loyalty."

Xing'an almost said clearly, Your Majesty, stop fishing!

Grandpa, what is your style of painting?

This style of painting has changed suddenly, but anyone who has achieved the position of magistrate and sits firmly, I am afraid that he will only pay tribute to the tea tree honestly, and will not produce any moths.

Under the Winter Order, the emperor and the officials were afraid of being beaten by the wolf. The emperor was afraid that the officials would make trouble and counterattack, and the officials were afraid that they would not survive the Winter Order. The emperor would make trouble for them.

Zhu Qiyu understood that his bait was not the right taste, and he needed an air force, he thought for a while and said: "Forget it, Si Niang is smart, she has her own way, I won't get involved."

Zhu Qiyu mainly wanted to fish, since he was destined to be in the air force, he might as well not use bait.

Ran Siniang had run the Miyun Pharmaceutical Factory, so she naturally knew how to breed tea trees.

Zhu Qiyu took two steps, looked back at the bedroom, and said: "Speaking of this extravagance and lust, I suddenly discovered that the emperor's public and private theory is not the monarch's theory?"

Xing'an asked full of doubts: "Why did Your Majesty make such a statement?"

Zhu Qiyu stood with his hands behind his back, and said as he walked: "Looking at the kings of the past dynasties, how many kings are there who are in charge of public vessels and have public morality?"

Counting the kings of the past dynasties, the first priority after ascending the throne is to suppress the subordinates and not rebel, and the second thing is to be extravagant and lustful. As for whether the country is good or not, how many emperors care about it?

In the Central Plains dynasty with only private morality and lack of public morality, where does the emperor's sense of responsibility come from?

Xing'an was shocked when he heard this and said hastily: "Your Majesty's question is the king's concern. I am a villain, and I don't know the answer to this question."

Zhu Qiyu thought for a while and said: "The emperors of all dynasties were not pioneers, who were born in deep palaces and grew up in the hands of women. They never knew sorrow, never knew sorrow, never knew labor, never knew fear, never knew danger. "

"Speaks a lot of bad words, doesn't know where to go, doesn't know how to choose sages and good people, and entrusts them to worry about themselves."

"I don't know what to do when I act, and I don't know what to do if I stop and stand."

"Choose things every day, and don't know what's valuable; follow things like a stream, and don't know where to go; five chisels are right, and the heart is broken. If you do this, you can be called mediocre."

The emperor was born with rich clothes and fine food, and he didn't know the sufferings of the people, and he didn't know sorrow, worry, labor, fear, and danger.

Naturally, they can’t say anything good, they don’t know how to worry, and they don’t know how to distinguish between loyal and evil.

Everyday extravagance, don't know how expensive the things you use, and don't know where the things you use come from, and you only know how to say: ah, yes, yes, you can figure it out.

He became a mediocre person.

"Ah, this..." Xing'an's forehead is covered with sweat, this is a topic he can discuss, he is a eunuch discussing this taboo, and he has to discuss it with the Minister of Fuguo.

Xing'an immediately said: "I sent someone to call Yu Shaobao!"

Zhu Qiyu nodded, he finished his meal and then discussed with Yu Qian.

Ever since Zhu Zhanqian put forward the theory of public morality, Zhu Qiyu has been thinking about this issue. Even Li Longji, who created the prosperity of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, later saw the monopoly of power, gradually ignored the government, and began to be extravagant and lustful.

Therefore, the theory of public morality helps to shape the king's sense of responsibility for the emperor's throne. Just relying on this point is enough to leave a name in history!

After meeting with him, Yu Qian said worriedly, "Your Majesty, a major event has happened in Nan Ya."

"Your Majesty is holy!" Yu Qian said sincerely with a long bow.

Yu Qian and Zhu Qiyu discussed one thing many times before, that is, whether the money law and the banknote law can be developed simultaneously.

Your Majesty is not a timid person. Your Majesty opens the sea in the east, and takes every step in the west, both sea and land.

However, His Majesty's attitude towards the banknote law was very firm, and he was so cautious that Yu Qian was afraid that His Majesty's heart would be twisted, so he didn't persuade him any more.

A strange thing happened in Nanya, which made Yu Qian break out in a cold sweat and even feel a little scared.

"What's the matter?" Zhu Qiyu's food tasted bad immediately.

This gang is going to be powerful, so what new tricks have they come up with?

Chapter 659 The old rice is rotten and still frying

Full of emotion, Yu Qian took out a stack of tickets, handed them to Xing'an, bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, this is from Li Xian, and Xu Chengzong is waiting outside the door."

Xu Chengzong personally delivered a stack of tickets?

Is Duke Wei of Ming Dynasty so leisurely?

Zhu Qiyu picked up the stack of tickets and examined them carefully for a long time. He is not a person who always chooses things, does not know what is expensive, follows things like a flow, and does not know where to go.

These tickets are all the depositors' certificates after the Nanya Baoyuan Bureau absorbs the deposits, which can be regarded as a kind of act of the Great Ming Banknote Law.

However, this kind of depositor's certificate does not have any attributes of banknotes. It is just an account. If a transaction is required, it still needs to be accepted at the Baochao Bureau in Songjiang Prefecture, Nanya and other places.

Zhu Qiyu's checks for domestic funds, depositors' certificates from Baoyuan Bureau, and the Daming banknotes that Jingtai sent to Japan in four years are all from the new Daming banknotes produced by the Baochao Bureau led by Jin Lian before his death.

A good product with high anti-counterfeiting, even if the Japanese country uses it, it is good.

"A very ordinary stack of tickets, what's wrong?" Zhu Qiyu flipped through the stack of depositor certificates, feeling nothing wrong.

Zhu Qiyu, as the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs of the Ming Dynasty, is very sure that this stack of tickets is genuine.

From the perspective of the material of the ticket, to the watermark, to the ink used on it, to the gravure printing technology, etc., this is a genuine product.

Yu Qian looked at the stack of tickets and said with mixed feelings: "Your Majesty, this is all fake."

"Fake?" Zhu Qiyu frowned, realizing that the matter was not simple, he nodded and said, "Duke Xuanwei."

Xu Chengzong approached tremblingly, knelt on the ground, kowtowed three times and five times, and shouted loudly: "See Your Majesty, long live your majesty, long live, long live, long live."

The last time His Majesty went south to quell the rebellion, Xu Chengzong rushed from Fengyang to Xuzhou, proving his loyalty to the Ming Dynasty.

But this time, Xu Chengzong came again.

He always suffers what he can't bear without arrogance.

"Get up, let's talk about something." Zhu Qiyu nodded at the table, signaling Xing'an to remove the food on the table, he was already full.

Ran Siniang, as the on-duty imperial physician of the imperial hospital, is very concerned about Zhu Qiyu's physical health. In addition to regular exercise, she also pays attention to his diet, work and rest, sitting and standing up for a long time, etc.

After a busy meal, Xu Chengzong took a stack of tickets and said: "When I went to search, I went with Yang Han, the commander of Jin Yiwei."

Yang Han, one of the five tigers of the Yang family in Datong, when King Jili ran to Datong Mansion to knock on the door, Yang Han and his brothers went deep into the captive camp, intending to cooperate with Yuan Bin to rescue King Jili, but King Jili dared not run away.

Yang Han later married Huang Yanniang, the famous actor in the south of the Yangtze River, Huang Yanniang, who would die if she played a tune.

Xu Chengzong took the three-point thin paper and said: "The material of this counterfeit note is uniform, it is a serious cotton paper, but it is only one-third of the thickness of the real banknote paper. When making the ticket, it is pressed with three layers of banknote paper. , the banknote paper in the middle is the watermark."

The watermark on the banknotes of the Ministry of Households of the Ming Dynasty is not pressed by three layers of banknotes.

Zhu Qiyu twirled the counterfeit note in his hand a few times, but he didn't find the interlayer. He twisted the counterfeit note to reveal holes, and he couldn't tell that it was three layers of suppression.

Xu Chengzong said with lingering fear: "The second is the ink. At first, I thought that the ink from the Baoyuan Bureau had been stolen, but later found that it was not the case. Their ink was prepared by themselves."

"So that's how it is." Zhu Qiyu looked at the fake ticket in front of him. As the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs of the Ming Dynasty, he has an extremely professional ability to identify counterfeit tickets, but he still can't tell that this thing is fake.

Xu Chengzong saw that His Majesty knew how clever these guys were in terms of cost, so he continued: "A few days ago, Daming suffered a money shortage. According to Governor Li's words, Daming has entered the winter sequence."

"Depositors began to run against Baoyuan Bureau. The silver coins in Baoyuan Bureau were piled up like a mountain. Naturally, there was no problem, but several people from all over the country took fake depositor tickets to Baoyuan Bureau to accept."

"There are three copies of this depositor's ticket, one for the depositor, one for the province, and one for the Baochao Bureau. The depositor only has it himself, and he will make a fuss if he can't accept it. Thanks to Sun Bingfu, the ambassador of the Baoyuan Bureau, who recognized the fake ticket. Otherwise, Baoyuan Bureau will suffer heavy losses."

"When those people were arrested, they still yelled loudly. The court didn't believe their words!"

"Yang Han heard the news and began to investigate the matter thoroughly, and finally found out the matter, and searched their workshop, and finally closed the public case."

Holding the stack of tickets, Zhu Qiyu asked a little strangely: "Sun Bingfu knows that when he was lying in the yamen of Baoyuan Bureau without a stove, drinking tea and playing with birds, he was so happy and a little fat."

"How did he recognize the fake ticket?"

Xu Chengzong stared and said: "He weighed it. Even if the fake ticket can be confused with the real one, Sun Bingfu weighed it with his hand and found that the fake one is a little heavier."

"Huh? Is it heavy?" Zhu Qiyu asked a question. He really didn't feel any difference in the weight of this stack.

If you say one, it is even more difficult to distinguish.

Back then, Sun Bingfu relied on this unique skill of weighing the weight with one hand. In the hands of Zhu Qiyu, who was temporarily inspecting the post, he got an errand, and he did it very well.

Zhu Qiyu smiled, Sun Bingfu's talent did not appear suddenly, but was there from the beginning, but during the orthodox years, Sun Bingfu could only hide in the shade of a tree, playing with birds and sleeping late.

From the beginning, he noticed that the guys in Fengtian Temple were all old fried dough sticks, and none of them were simple. From the beginning, he didn't intend to end up fighting with the courtiers in person, but chose to build a team with a heart. , The stage is as big as the stage, select a person with lofty ideals, and bloom his own brilliance on the stage.

Obviously, Zhu Qiyu set up a stage to sing, and the effect of the stage is very good.

Xu Chengzong told the case from beginning to end.

This Chenjiazhuang gang is composed of only seven people. Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs, including paper craftsmen, paint craftsmen, ink craftsmen, painters, engravers, and boat masters.

This gang does not do business in Baoyuan Bureau. From the very beginning, this gang aimed at the Japanese market.

The banknotes of the Japanese country circulated Daming banknotes, and the merchant ships and tribute ships of the Japanese country could only get Daming banknotes when they arrived in Daming, but they could not get Jingtai Tongbao and imperial silver coins.

The boat masters in this gang had been to the country of Wa, and they thought it was profitable, so they began to make this kind of treasure banknotes that only circulated in the country of Wa, because they were well-made and profitable.

When this person has money, he becomes courageous. As soon as the run on Baoyuan Bureau broke out, these people came up with some ideas of distribution according to trouble.

The Baoyuan Bureau was extremely busy during that time, and they didn’t have many tickets, only a thousand silver coins. If the Baoyuan Bureau accepted these fake tickets and opened this hole, they could sell fake tickets. Ticket up.

This gang originally planned to finish the last vote, then stop and go to Jilong Island, Ryukyu, Anguo, Jiaozhi and other places to live.

The run on the Baoyuan Bureau lasted three times in total. The silver coins in the Baoyuan Bureau were piled up like a mountain. Just to deal with the wave of runs, the Baoyuan Bureau stood still. The money is gone, but the interest needs to be recalculated.

After hearing the whole thing, Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "They also know about this ticket, one for the depositor, one for the province, and one for the Baoyuan Bureau, so they plan to make a fuss to see if they can take advantage of it."

"If there is a person who can open up many links in the Baoyuan Bureau, this fake bill may become real."

Xu Chengzong was sweating profusely. In the entire Nanya, the only one who could talk about his hands and eyes was the only one who had this qualification!

After all, the Misty Rain Building built by Duke Wei's mansion back then can see the Nanjing Imperial Palace!

This is also the main reason why Xu Chengzong personally sent the fake tickets to the Xuzhou Palace.

When His Majesty finds out and becomes suspicious in his heart, he might as well send it to his door to prove his loyalty and let His Majesty deal with it.

Zhu Qiyu didn't plan to embarrass Xu Chengzong, and Xu Chengzong couldn't get through the link.

In terms of planning and saving, even the emperor Zhu Qiyu can't say that he can get through the joints.

Jin Lian and Shen Yi, the two household ministers, were like debt collectors, collecting debts behind him.

Wang Hu, a doctor in the household department, and Lin Xiu, a eunuch of the internal money, wished to fight every time they quarreled!

Zhu Qiyu couldn't help but think of the incident of super dollar bills in later generations.

The U.S. dollar bills come from private banks, the Federal Reserve.

In the 80s, a batch of counterfeit banknotes that could not be distinguished from the real ones appeared. The Federal Reserve dumped the pot everywhere, biting North Korea, Moscow, Iran, and Northern Ireland.
