Daming: Grandpa Emperor, please get up and sit on my throne!

"This...test...question?"

"The prize?"

Zhu Yunhuan threw out this so-called test question.

A low murmur of discussion suddenly rang out in the hall.

Zhan Hui, Fu Youwen, Qin Kui and other heads of the six ministries were all bewildered. They could only exchange glances at each other in confusion, but it was obvious that no one understood what they meant.

How did this obviously good thing become a test question?

"My dear ministers, do you have any objections?" Seeing that everyone was hesitant, Zhu Yunhuan narrowed his eyes and asked in a light tone, but with a hint of brooking no room for argument.

Half a year has passed.

Whether it was Qin Kui, Zhan Hui, and Fu Youwen who knew something about Zhu Yunhuan, or others who still knew only a little about him, they had all reached a tacit consensus: this little emperor was young, but he was ruthless.

Naturally, no one dared to express any objection openly at this moment.

They immediately gathered their minds, temporarily putting aside all the speculations and hesitations in their hearts, and solemnly bowed and said:

"Wei Chen takes orders."

"Your Majesty's profound meaning, we humble servants will do our utmost to understand it."

"..."

Seeing everyone's trembling expressions, Zhu Yunhuan raised an eyebrow, a satisfied smile playing on his lips. Since he ascended the throne, he had the power of life and death. Although he had never seen blood, his hands were stained with blood. One of his purposes was to achieve this subtle effect!

It will definitely be easier to do other things in the future.

There was a pause.

He then continued to ask, "Can this matter be considered discussed for the time being?"

Fu Youwen immediately stepped forward and said, "Since this is Your Majesty's order, we will certainly obey. However, I would like to ask a question: Is there a time limit for Your Majesty's exam?"

Although he was puzzled, he could see that Zhu Yunhuan attached great importance to and was serious about this matter. If only he could really find out something.

Maybe there is still room for improvement.

Not minting new coins was simply beyond their existing cognition. Since Zhu Yunhuan had said so, Fu Youwen certainly knew the priorities and immediately focused his attention on this so-called "test question", treating it as a puzzle to be explored.

As for the answer to this riddle, he was extremely curious: what was the reason that could make His Majesty put aside his so-called pride and divine authority? This alone meant that the answer to this riddle must be extraordinary.

"There is no rush for this matter. It will take one month. When you go out today, you should publicize this matter." Zhu Yunhuan said calmly. He was not so anxious. He just regarded it as a leisurely move after the tedious government affairs.

"We obey your command." Everyone bowed again in response.

Zhu Yunhuan's gaze wandered over the crowd, finally landing on Fu Youwen. He said, "Fu Youwen? It looks like you have something else to report. Since it's a government matter, there's no need to be so hesitant."

Fu Youwen did have another memorial to make, and he originally thought it was a good thing, so he put it aside for later.

However, perhaps because he was full of confidence and ready to make progress, but ended up being frustrated and disappointed, Fu Youwen didn't dare to say anything, and there was a clear trace of uneasiness on his face - this little emperor doesn't play by the rules!

Hear Zhu Yunhuan's voice.

Fu Youwen could only lower his eyes, sigh secretly, and pray silently in his heart that he would not flatter the horse's legs. He stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, there is indeed one matter that requires your Majesty's approval."

Zhu Yunhuan also knew how cunning this old man Fu Youwen was.

After the discussion about the new currency, he perked up. Bored, he tapped the table slowly with his fingertips and said with interest, "Go on."

"Last year, Your Majesty prepared cheap cloth, anthracite, and other items for sale to the public, but Your Majesty was benevolent and generous, sharing the benefits with the people and not profiting from them. This did not contribute much to the national treasury or the imperial treasury."
