"Not that simple?" Zhu Di asked with a slightly changed expression.

At least in his opinion, the person behind Zhu Yunhuan worked hard to plan and get cheap cloth and anthracite, and sold them all at cost price. His intention was good, but in the end he really made a wedding dress for those cheapest businessmen.

Not only that, the huge profits they gave up with good intentions also provided huge opportunities for those parasites, which in turn hurt the already stretched national treasury...

What's so difficult about it?

Unexpectedly, the monk Daoyan who said this shook his head uncertainly and said, "I don't know either, but this is what I feel in my heart."

He is a very transparent person.

Even if I don't have a definite idea in my mind, I won't bother to cover it up or make excuses.

Zhu Di frowned speechlessly at these words, and couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart: "It feels like... Master Daoyan rarely said such ambiguous words in the past."

In his impression.

This was a traitorous monk who instigated him to rebel.

But at the same time, he is also a person who seems to know everything and calculate everything.

Although Zhu Di didn't say anything, Monk Daoyan seemed to see through his thoughts and guessed his doubts. He absentmindedly put the chess piece in his hand back into the chess box, as if he had no intention of continuing to play chess.

While putting the chess piece back, he looked at Zhu Di seriously and asked, "On the surface, this matter does not seem to be suspicious, but has Your Highness noticed a point that is easily overlooked?"

Zhu Di stopped looking at the chessboard.

He frowned and thought for a long time in silence, but to no avail. He looked at Monk Daoyan and asked doubtfully, "Master Daoyan, please tell me?"

Monk Daoyan took a deep breath.

There seemed to be a subtle hint of dissatisfaction in his glint. He even hesitated for a moment before speaking: "In Yingtian Prefecture, the person behind the new emperor has not reacted to this matter at all."

"Beiping City has started selling anthracite today. Some merchants in the city have set their sights on this product and have taken actual action. Just imagine, won't the same situation happen in Yingtian Prefecture?"

"Perhaps fearing the threat left by the former figure in the private residence, officials at the foot of the emperor and on the edge of the imperial city dare not act rashly or engage in any private corruption. However, the private sale of cheap fabrics is not prohibited by the Ming Dynasty Law, so such a situation is bound to occur!"

"With such obvious shortcomings, given the scheming and planning of the person behind the new emperor, why didn't he try to remedy it? Why didn't Yingtian Prefecture issue a corresponding decree to prevent this from happening?"

Yes.

This was the biggest reason why he always felt uneasy about this matter - logically, a decree should have been issued on the same day, and they would definitely have received news of such a decree by now, but in fact they did not.

In the past, Monk Daoyan might not have cared so much about Yingtian Prefecture, or even disdained it, but at this point today, Monk Daoyan has to consider what Yingtian Prefecture thinks, and even has to worry about some unexpected situations and reactions from Yingtian Prefecture.

So, when Monk Daoyan said this...

There is dissatisfaction and even unwillingness.

But at the same time, he knew very well in his heart: he must not ignore this point!

Hearing what Monk Daoyan said, Zhu Di showed a look of sudden realization on his face. He gritted his teeth and said with the same unwillingness: "Master Daoyan's words are indeed reasonable."

React to this.

Zhu Di's previous happiness and joy were somewhat diluted. He angrily threw the chess piece he had already picked up back into the chess box and simply gave up the game. A trace of worry appeared on his face. "So... what's the problem?"

Although I received several good news today.
