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

Without saying anything more, he simply thanked the emperor: "Your Majesty, God is so kind."

Zhu Yunhuan nodded with satisfaction, and without further ado, he went straight to the point and said, "Today we are discussing the annual budget for the Ming Dynasty."

"This year is the first year of the Kaiqian era, which means it's my first year as emperor. Most of you are veteran officials from previous dynasties. Governing the government and stabilizing the Ming dynasty is inseparable from the concerted efforts of all of you."

"Speaking of which, you know more about many things than I do. Let's continue with the discussions we held in previous years."

There is no falsehood in this statement.

Although Zhu Yunhuan boasted that he had vision, knowledge, cognition, etc. that surpassed this era, but standing in this highest position, if he wanted to be a good helmsman and a good emperor, in addition to being cautious and steady in every step, learning and observing slowly was also one of his tasks.

As soon as Zhu Yunhuan said this.

Everyone immediately showed an expression of awe and respect, and humbly declined:

"Your Majesty's words are so profound, I feel ashamed to accept them."

"Your Majesty is wise, far-sighted, and talented. We are merely your subjects. Your Majesty has devoted all his energy and energy to the well-being of the world and the people. We, your subjects, dare not take any credit for your efforts."

"If it were not for your Majesty's heavenly virtue, I, your humble servant, would certainly not be able to escape unscathed."

"..."

Although this kind of flattering and high-sounding words are the same as the usual rhetoric, there is actually a bit of sincerity in the voices that come one after another.

Or.

In the minds of the heads of these powerful departments in the court.

These words are not entirely false, and they even contain a bit of gratitude.

Throughout the ages.

The replacement of the old with the new is often accompanied by blood and fire, and is often accompanied by the fall of a group of old people and the rise of a group of new people.

If it weren’t for the peace and stability last year.

It is still unclear how many of them will be able to stand here and speak calmly this year, so naturally they all spoke with some sincerity at this moment.

Zhu Yunhuan raised an eyebrow. Tired of hearing these words, he remained silent. After everyone had expressed their opinions, he looked directly at Fu Youwen and said, "Let's begin."

Fu Youwen, the Minister of Revenue, nodded solemnly.

Step sideways out of the line.

During this process, Zhu Yunhuan didn't know if it was his illusion, but he actually saw a hint of sadness on Fu Youwen's face, and he suddenly felt a little strange in his heart.

But he didn’t say much.

He just looked at Fu Youwen with a faint expression and nonchalantly.

Fu Youwen first bowed his hands in greeting, then slowly spoke:

"The 25th year of the Hongwu reign was a turbulent and eventful time, and it was also a year of deep sorrow for all the people of the Ming Dynasty."

"In February, Duyun and Bijie in Guizhou rebelled, and the unsubordinated tribes in Yunnan occasionally caused unrest. Fortunately, General Pingqiang and the Mu clan of Yunnan led the expedition to suppress the rebellion. Although there were no major battles throughout the year, following the orders of Emperor Taizu Hongwu, troops were increased in Liaodong, Datong, Xuanfu, and other places to cultivate farmland. Garrisons were also strengthened in Fujian, Zhejiang, and other places..."

Zhu Yunxun tapped his desk surface with his fingertips, bored, raised an eyebrow, and thought to himself, "Well, it's a meeting, an annual review. Generally speaking, it's also about summarizing and discussing the major events of the previous year."

Thinking this in my mind, I didn't interrupt.

but……

Zhu Yunhuan looked at Fu Youwen, whose eyes began to turn red in the middle of his speech, and suddenly had a bad feeling.

The next moment, Fu Youwen continued:

"In April, Emperor Xingzong Xiaokang (also known as Crown Prince Yiwen Zhu Biao) died of a cold. In June, Prince Qianning (Marquis of Xiping Mu Ying), who was stationed in Yunnan, also died with Emperor Xiaokang. In August, Emperor Taizu also passed away suddenly..."

When Fu Youwen said this, his eyes were already red and filled with tears. When the officials from other departments heard this, they also looked heartbroken. His brother's eyes were red and he covered his face and cried.
