Chapter 111: Ice and Fire

Chuxiu Palace in the Forbidden City.

Empress Dowager Zhang came to Chuxiu Palace for the first time, holding Bai Xue's hand, her mouth closed in excitement for a long time.

Erniang sat on the stool next to her and said to the queen mother with a smile, "This is a big happy event. In eight months, you can hold your grandson!"

"Then I'll accompany Ai's family to relieve the boredom..."

Zhu Houzhao came to Chuxiu Palace in a sedan chair. He sent Cao Zhengchun away before he came to the harem with lingering fears. After all, Bai Xue only vomited and did not give birth to a dragon child to Zhu Houzhao.

In the small courtyard of Chuxiu Palace, the fragrance of flowers is overflowing.

Zhu Houzhao walked into the small courtyard, saw the Queen Mother and Er Niang San Niang, and looked at Bai Xue lying on the bed, only to see Bai Xue's pale face, which was a sign of pregnancy.

At this time, a good doctor stepped forward, handed over to Zhu Houzhao and said, "Your Majesty, Empress is almost three months pregnant. Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Zhu Houzhao glanced at him and said nothing.

But the queen mother took Bai Xue's hand and said to Zhu Houzhao, "Zhao'er, Bai Xue has made such a contribution to our royal family, you have to ennoble her as a concubine."

Hearing this, Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly, and said to the **** who was next to him: "From now on, I will officially ennoble Bai Xue as Concubine Hui, and enjoy the concubine position."

"Concubine, concubine thank you..."

The eunuchs and palace maids serving Bai Xue were all very excited. Their master was canonized, which means that their status has also improved. In the entire harem, except for the queen mother, her status is the highest.

As for the queen in the future, that is the future, at least for now.

And Bai Xue also cried with joy. She never imagined that she would not only become His Majesty's concubine, but also give birth to a dragon seed for the royal family.

......

In just two days, the price of the capital was stabilized. As the merchants fell one by one, the merchants who were originally looking out for the wind also calmed down one by one.

On the Golden Palace of the Forbidden City.

The minister of household, Liang Chu, gave a detailed account of the recent price stabilization.

Above the court, Zhu Houzhao frowned tightly after listening to it: "Liang Aiqing, do you remember what you said?"

Liang Chu nodded heavily and said, "Go back to Your Majesty, of course I will remember!"

"However, thanks to His Majesty's foresight in this matter, otherwise the money in the hands of the common people will decrease, and things will develop in the opposite direction."

"At that time, once the court can't get the money, my entire Ming Dynasty will be in chaos."

"However, if the money is placed in the state treasury, it is still a pile of dead things and has no value."

Liang Chu explained this, and all the civil and military officials present suddenly realized one by one, and they all nodded in agreement, expressing their approval.

Seeing the results, Zhu Houzhao cleared his throat and said loudly, "The Ministry of Household was ordered to set up banks in various cities and prefectures. All taxes collected will be deposited into the banks."

"All my Daming people can deposit money in the bank, and anyone who holds my Daming banknotes can go to the bank to withdraw money."

"In addition, when setting up a national grain farm, the price of grain shall not be higher than twice the average market price."

"Jinyiwei is ordered to closely monitor the prices of private goods, and no one is allowed to arbitrarily drive up prices. Once found, he will be severely punished."

"..."

The decrees were sent to the whole country from the Golden Palace.

When the civil and military officials of the dynasty heard this, they stood there in a daze, unable to recover for a long time.

Their thinking couldn't even keep up with Zhu Houzhao's thinking. They felt that what Zhu Houzhao said was too advanced, at least twenty years ahead of what they thought.

But only Liang Chu, the minister of households, knew and reflected that he had been engaged in economic work for more than 20 years, and summed up Zhu Houzhao's words just now as "fast, accurate, and ruthless".

And it's handled just right.

Liang Chu was so excited that he cupped his hands and said to Zhu Houzhao, "Your Majesty Shengming, listening to your words is better than reading ten years of books!"

"With this policy implemented in my Daming, it will surely ensure the prosperity of my Daming economy."

After hearing this, Zhu Houzhao felt a little happy inside, but he was not complacent on the surface, because as an emperor, knowing inner calm is more important than anything else.

"Liang Aiqing, what are your plans next?"

Liang Chu cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I know what to do next, please rest assured, Your Majesty."

"Well, it's good to know."

Zhu Houzhao responded, and then said calmly: "This matter is settled, retreat!"

When Zhu Houzhao left the Golden Palace, the ministers in the hall couldn't help but let out a burst of excitement.

What a teenage chest master!

Such a coveted emperor is exactly what they expected, and now it has finally arrived.

Wen Neng's pen will settle the world, and Wu Neng will set the world on the horse!

Daming has such an emperor, why worry about the instability of the world and the lack of a strong country?

......

In the Chuxiu Palace, Liu Ruyue, who was named a lady, was very excited. This was a happy event that fell from the sky.

Since he was drafted into the palace, he has been looking forward to being favored by His Majesty, and she often envies Bai Xue's experience.

Although she was also canonized as a beauty, she was far away from Bai Xue in terms of identity and status.

"When I see your color, I feel a sense of heart and spleen. I miss you often, and I can't sleep at night."

"You live at the head of the Yangtze River, and I live at the end of the Yangtze River. I miss you every day without seeing you, and drink the same water."

whose poem is this?

Liu Ruyue found a page of paper in Chuxiugong's room, and she found that the handwriting on it was beautiful, and it was similar to her own.

Just when she was wandering in the room alone, a voice came from behind: "It's been a long time since I miss you and see you, let's drink a river of water together."

"Could it be that the royal family has neglected you?"

Liu Ruyue was stunned on the spot, but she quickly reacted. She turned her head and saw that the Queen Mother was standing there with a gloomy face, with Bai Xue and Ouyang Jing behind her.

"My concubine sees the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother is blessed."

"Chen and concubine dare not!"

"You don't have to be so pretentious. If our royal family is sorry for you, Aijia can give you a place to go. You don't have to be so obsessed with your sweetheart!" The queen mother said, walking towards the table, reaching out and picking up the poetry.

"This is so well written! The pain of lovesickness, this kind of pain probably only occurs after experiencing the separation of life and death, right?"

boom! Liu Ruyue felt her whole head burst, she had never faced such a situation before.

Seeing that Liu Ruyue did not speak, the Queen Mother further confirmed her thoughts.

"Say, who are you obsessed with? If that's the case, the Aijia will be able to fulfill you all. It's better to demolish a temple than ruin a marriage!"

Liu Ruyue was terrified.

"The queen mother, the queen mother, I am wronged! I really have no love for anyone~lightnovelpub.net~ This poem was not written by me, really?"

"You didn't write it? Why doesn't Aijia believe it?"

"Come here, serve with pen and ink, let this girl copy these poems to Ai's family, Ai's family has their own way!"

Soon, a **** was holding a large square plate, which contained the four treasures of the study.

"Do as Aijia said, otherwise, no one can save you!"

At that moment, Liu Ruyue was so frightened that her face was extremely pale, and her whole body kept shaking, because she knew that her handwriting was almost the same as this, and if ordinary people read it, it would be really difficult to distinguish the true from the false.

She felt like she had fallen into an ice hole, and her future was bleak. Before, she felt that she was floating in the sky, but the reality was suffering in the ice cellar. It was simply two rhythms.
