Chapter 141 Lan Yu prepares to show off to Chen Han after returning to Beijing! After Chen Han came out of the study room of Qianqing Palace, he was stopped by Zhu Biao.
"Your Highness!" Chen Han was not in a good mood.
After all, he was taught a lesson by Zhu Yuanzhang, and now he couldn't avenge his friend, so he felt a little knotty in his heart.
He is broad-minded, but he also repays kindness and revenge.
After being stopped by Zhu Biao, Chen Han turned around.
Zhu Biao looked at him, "I know you are thinking about revenge now, but this matter, as His Majesty said, is not that simple.
Competing with those people coming and going will only waste your time. It is better to put your time in the right place.
Please hurry up and get married to Jiang Du in the near future. "
Chen Han was stunned for a moment: "Your Highness, now you want me to marry the princess, this..."
Zhu Biao looked at him, "This is to protect you."
Zhu Biao said very cheerfully, "Don't you know how many people are targeting you for what you are doing now? This time it was Shen Liqian who died. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that if you were not Gu's son-in-law, you would be the first to die. "
Zhu Biao's words reminded Chen Han of what Shen Liqian had also said.
If Chen Han was not the son-in-law of His Royal Highness, Chen Han might be the first to die.
Shen Liqian blocked the knife for himself.
Xia Yuanji also advised from the side: "Yes, you should hurry up and get married. This is the greatest protection for you."
Chen Han asked again, "But if I get married to the princess, those people should let me live a life of idleness and not be allowed to do anything."
Zhu Biao said: "I won't let you do nothing. Go ahead. If Lan Yu comes to see you in the past two days, don't be scared by him!"
Ok? Sapphire?
Chen Han was stunned for a moment.
Good guy Chen Han almost forgot that if he married Princess Jiangdu, he would have to call Lan Yu uncle.
Maybe we can get the support of the entire Huaixi Group.
Lan Yu, Duke of Liang, was a legendary figure who could not be suppressed by anyone except the emperor and the prince.
Is he coming to find me?
After Chen Han came out of the palace, he was pulled by Zhu Youwei and told that he was going to meet someone.
Sitting in the carriage, Zhu Youwei asked a question out of curiosity.
"Why do you have to set the wedding date on the first day of October?" Zhu Youwei asked.
According to Zhu Youwei and Zhu Biao's ideas, it would be better to get married as soon as possible.
Because many people are staring at Chen Han now.
Judging from the current situation, Chen Han would be less in danger if he got married a day earlier.
But Chen Han insisted on waiting for two months.
Chen Han held Zhu Youwei's jade-like delicate hand and said with emotion: "You must know that that day is a very special day for me.
In modern times, everyone is willing to get married at this point in time. Can you just obey me once? "
Chen Han has said this, what else can Zhu Youwei say? Besides, this is not a big deal. Zhu Youwei also held Chen Han's hand with her backhand and gently rubbed her smooth face, "I hope you can understand that neither my father nor the emperor want anything to happen to you now.
My father told me about you being scolded by Grandpa Huang in the palace.
I hope you don't have any grudges in your heart. "
Chen Han shook his head, "How could I have any grudges? How could I not know that everyone is doing this for my own good? It's just that this matter has stuck in my throat. Besides, I want to make the matter bigger, and I also hope that those who are behind to cause trouble will take action.
Isn’t it perfectly solved now?
Then let's take it easy for a while. Since these people have stopped messing with us, let's do our own thing first. There is a saying that is right, it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.
Instead of wasting time arguing with those people, it would be better to accomplish the big things that Brother Meng Li wants me to accomplish.
The success of the reform is what Brother Meng Li wants to see most and what comforts him the most. "
As he said this, Chen Han couldn't help but sigh, this is ancient times.
It is not like modern society, there are not so many vendettas.
It was different in ancient times. If those people's interests were offended, they would really dare to buy killers to kill people.
And he killed a living person right in front of him.
This made Chen Han feel for the first time that human life was worthless in ancient times.
Not long after, we arrived at the east entrance of Cross Street in Shangyuan County.
Business here is prosperous and it is the most prosperous place in Nancheng of Shangyuan County.
The market is prosperous, filled with traders, ordinary people, and tourists.
It can be seen that due to commercial reforms, businessmen finally have freedom. They have no restrictions and naturally have more time to spend on business.
People can enjoy more material satisfaction.
Especially now that we are about to enter the collection of summer taxes.
A large number of people brought agricultural products to the capital for sale.
This move greatly promoted the commercialization of agricultural products.
The common people were also forced to join in the commercial circulation process.
In fact, this phenomenon is a good thing.
Zhu Youwei saw the prosperous scene outside from the window and said with a smile: "You are a busy person and you didn't take a good stroll after coming down the mountain.
Look at how prosperous the market outside is. From morning to night, everyone is busy selling whatever they can at home for money. This was never the case before.
Merchants from all over the world brought all kinds of things to the capital for sale.
I have also seen those strange cups from the Western Regions being sold to the capital from the northwest.
Various ethnic groups from the Western Regions also came to our capital to do business.
I have only seen such a grand scene in the Tang Dynasty in history books before. I never thought that our Ming Dynasty would also have such a day. This is all due to you.
In order to be busy with our wedding, Xi'er and I spent a lot of time shopping on the street. There were so many things. How could there be so many things before?
Now in Beijing, you can buy everything and meet everyone, which is very interesting. "
Xi'er sat beside the carriage and replied: "Yes, the capital is more prosperous now than before.
The common people are saying that the current prosperous age is possible because of the presence of the Holy Emperor.
Many people say that just because of your reforms, the people's lives are better.
My family is Mr. Tian, but I have four brothers. In the past, they had to pay not only the capitation tax, but also the land tax, and they had to work for the government at intervals.
Now everything is fine, everything has been converted into land tax. As long as my eldest and second brothers work, all the taxes in the family can be paid.
My third and fourth brothers are left with skills.
My third brother is very good at making bamboo baskets, so he made a lot of bamboo baskets to sell.
My fourth brother is good at playing the trumpet, so he can often take on some mundane jobs. He has made a lot of money and his life is getting more and more promising, all thanks to of the common people is not thinking about your kindness now? Even those gentry and officials are all cursing you. "
After hearing this, Chen Han opened the car curtain again and looked at the prosperous scene, watching the people carrying burdens and selling their own agricultural products to each other.
Watching those traders bring goods from all over the world to the capital for sale.
I saw those dignitaries picking at the stalls.
When everyone was in a peaceful scene, Chen Han finally felt that he could still do something.
He had always thought that he was just talking on paper, but later he discovered that as Ling Han said, if you talk about many things in one sentence, the people below will naturally formulate implementation strategies based on Ming's own situation, so there is no need to worry too much.
He was hesitant at first, but now it seems to have achieved some results.
The carriage traveled through the bustling market and stopped at a restaurant.
Zhu Youwei took Chen Han directly to the second floor of the restaurant. The door of the private room was open.
I saw a hidden figure in the private room, with his back to them, standing by the window, hands behind his back, looking at the prosperous scene below.
There is a pot of Hangzhou Longjing tea on the table, which is filled with the aroma of tea.
After hearing the sound, the figure turned around.
This man was about 45 years old, wearing casual clothes, with a black leather belt around his waist, and his hands were covered with calluses.
Tall and mighty, with a long beard hanging on his chest.
The tiger's eyes were bright and sparkling, as if there was lightning.
A face that has gone through many hardships but is still full of majesty.
The hair on his head is made of jade and tied with jade hairpins.
Not to mention anything else, just from these, it can be seen that this person must be a rich man.
As soon as Chen Han saw this person, he felt a powerful aura coming towards his face.
Chen Han couldn't describe this kind of momentum, but it was like the huge mountain of Yuanting Yue Zhi in front of him, and it was a bit difficult to breathe under it.
For the first time, those adjectives seemed right to him.
Some people do have an aura that is so powerful that it makes people afraid.
When Zhu Youwei saw the middle-aged man turning back, he stepped forward and saluted: "Uncle!!"
Chen Han was shocked when he heard what Zhu Youwei called the middle-aged man.
When he just came out of the study room of Qianqing Palace, he heard Zhu Biao telling him that if Lan Yu wanted to see him, don't be scared by him.
But I didn't expect to see Lan Yu face to face so soon.
After meeting Zhu Youwei, Lan Yu laughed loudly, with a loud voice and a heroic momentum: "Oh, our Youwei's fate is becoming more and more obvious. I don't know which lucky person will marry my little girl."
While he was talking, he looked at Chen Han with a bit of resentment in his eyes.
Zhu Youwei blushed: "Uncle, you are really telling a joke. I am getting married soon."
He said and looked at Chen Han.
Chen Han always stood there and looked at Lan Yu.
This man has mixed reputations and reputations in history books, but it has to be said that he was a miraculous figure in the military.
At the same time, he also remembered his tragic experience.
Not only was he wrongly accused of rebelling, but his skin was skinned alive and his skin was exhibited all over the country. His family was directly exterminated.
This strange man who has repeatedly made extraordinary achievements can be said to have had ups and downs in his life.
Although he brought this upon himself, the greater part was due to the ruthlessness of the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang.
In order to pave the way for Zhu Yunwen, Lan Yu and other 2 people were executed together, which is really sad.
From this, he was even more disdainful towards Zhu Yunwen.
For such a useless emperor, his grandfather had clearly given him such a good path and helped him eliminate so many threats, but he still could not secure his position.
If history repeats itself and Lan Yu and the others are not wiped out, Zhu Yunwen's empire will probably be even more unstable.
Lan Yu is unruly and unyielding. On the one hand, this is because the commanders of the older generation have withered away. Among the commanders of the Mesozoic Era, he is more powerful.
Being able to still be awarded the title of Duke for his military merits after the founding of the People's Republic of China is a miracle.
Therefore, he roamed the world and felt that he was invincible. Even the older generation Fu Youde and Feng Sheng might not take him seriously.
While he was establishing his miraculous achievements, he also caused countless disasters.
He was despised by all civil servants and hated by the emperor.
Being able to do this is enough to show how low this blue jade's emotional intelligence is.
Thinking of this, when Chen Han faced Lan Yu, he had some preconceptions in his heart - he was worthy of sympathy, but he also had the side of himself to blame.
Lan Yu saw Chen Han, a young man, looking at him, and saw that Chen Han was as tall as herself, but a little thinner.
His body exuded a strong bookish aura, which made him a little dissatisfied.
He is a military commander, the highest ranking military commander in the empire.
From the official position to the Governor's Office of the Fifth Army, he was worshiped as a general, and was given the title of Duke of Liang. It can be said that he has reached the pinnacle of military generals.
Since ancient times, civil servants and military officers have always been opposed to each other. Especially military commanders like Lan Yu, who have a lot of flaws, don't have much favorable impressions of civil servants.
So seeing Chen Han's bookishness so heavy, his eyes were filled with a trace of disdain.
"Did you spend more than half a year in the capital doing what everyone knows as Chen Han?"
Although Chen Han heard his unkind tone, he still cupped his hands and said, "Chen Han, Director of the Academic Affairs Department and Commerce Department, pays homage to Duke Liang."
Lan Yu looked Chen Han up and down, and then said to Zhu Youwei: "Why did you find a white-faced scholar?"
Zhu Youwei smiled and said, "Uncle, don't underestimate Chen Han.
The results of the reform in the past six months are all displayed in front of you.
Yesterday I took you around for a day, and you saw it. You haven't been in the capital for several years. Now you come back to see how much the capital has changed. Is it earth-shaking? This is all due to Chen Han.
You have made great contributions by fighting outside, but to build the entire Ming Dynasty better, you have to rely on young people like Chen Han. "
When Zhu Youwei said this, Lan Yu laughed: "Okay, okay, knowing that your little girl's elbows are turned outward, you compare him to even more powerful than your father."
"That's the truth." Zhu Youwei smiled.
Then Lan Yu asked in a serious tone: "Chen Han, the land you built is divided into acres, and the officials and gentry are all responsible for paying taxes, so we, the military generals and the meritorious families, have to pay taxes on the land, right? Can be accommodating.
After fighting for so many years, we finally managed to get some land, finally got tax exemptions, and finally enjoyed the same privileges as those who were officials before. But now you have taken them away in one fell swoop. Many people are complaining.
They know that you are my nephew and grandson-in-law, so they asked me to talk to you. Can I give you some favors outside of the law? "
After hearing this, Chen flatly refused: "The law is the law. It is a national policy for officials and gentry to be responsible for paying taxes. How can we be accommodating because of relatives? If we do that, what else will we reform?" You should be more ruthless towards those around you. Your Majesty punishes the King of Qin. Does the general want me to take the lead in trampling on the law? I believe that even though the general is a military general, he still has this magnanimity and will not embarrass those of us who are doing things. What do you think? "
Chen Han's rebellion against the general made Lan Yu speechless...
