To persuade Zhu Youjian, Zhu Cheng adopted a roundabout strategy.

Zhu Cheng pretended to be careless and asked, "A Jian, will you still dream of Grandpa Shenzong now?"

Zhu Youjian replied: "I haven't had it in the past few months. Maybe Grandpa Shenzong didn't come to me if he has something to do. Brother Cheng, have you dreamed of him?"

Zhu Cheng said: "I dreamed the day before yesterday. He asked me why I didn't do what he said, which made me feel very uncomfortable."

Zhu Youjianqi said: "Brother Cheng is doing a good job, why would Grandpa Shenzong blame you? What did he say?"

Zhu Cheng sighed: "Grandpa Shenzong said, why didn't he give Concubine Zheng the Empress Dowager so that he could not sleep with him after his death?"

Zhu Youjian changed his color and said, "Hmph, Concubine Zheng is so stinky... I will never let him become the queen. Even if the emperor's brother agrees, I will object."

Zhu Youjian and Zhu Cheng have been together for too long, and even learned his catchphrase.

Zhu Cheng said: "Grandpa Shenzong is so nice to us, why don't we even help him realize his last wish?"

Zhu Youjian said: "Concubine Zheng is so bad that she wants to murder her father. In the 43rd year of Wanli, the year before God gave me Brother Cheng, she actually sent someone to the palace to attack her father."

Zhu Youjian was talking about the attack case in the three major cases in the late Ming Dynasty. It turned out that in May of the 43rd year of Wanli (1615), a man named Zhang Cha, holding a wooden stick, broke into the Ciqing Palace where the prince Zhu Changluo lived, with an intention to slaughter, but was caught by the prince's eunuch. After the trial of the Ministry of Justice, King Zhili learned that Zhang Cha was instructed by the eunuch Pang Bao and Liu Cheng, who was under the imperial concubine. Because the matter involved the emperor's beloved concubine, the emperor and the prince were unwilling to investigate, so they finally executed Zhang Cha Lingchi for the crime of being crazy and traitorous. On June 1, Shenzong secretly ordered the eunuch Pang Bao and Liu Cheng to execute him, and the entire case was not found. After the incident, the power of Concubine Zheng declined, and Shenzong had to give up the idea of ​​making King Fu the crown prince, and the position of Prince Zhu Changluo was also stabilized.

Zhu Cheng said: "Do you think that traitor was really invited by Concubine Zheng?"

Zhu Youjian said: "That's all right. It's impossible that my father asked someone to kill me."

Zhu Cheng smiled and said, "How is it impossible? Think about it, who is the beneficiary of this matter? It was Emperor Zhen of Guangzong. After this matter, Grandpa Shenzong no longer talked about letting King Fu inherit the throne. His Majesty Guangzong's position as stable as Mount Tai."

"Impossible, my father is honest and honest, claiming to be honest and reliable..." Zhu Youjian suddenly remembered that his father was no longer young, so he changed his words, "Old man, how could he do such a thing?"

Zhu Cheng said: "Why can't it be? Since ancient times, any deposed prince has been able to end up with a good end? His Majesty Guangzong had to do it. As far as I know, among women's crimes, eight out of ten poisoning cases are the same, and the other 20% are the ones who buy evil spirits | murder. Concubine Zheng really wants to kill His Majesty Guangzong, and only needs to bribe the prince | palace chef. Besides, if you really buy evil spirit | murder, you have to find a martial arts master. As far as I know, the assassin is just an ordinary woodcutter."

Zhu Youjian lowered his head and said after a long time, "Did I blame Concubine Zheng for wrongly?"

Zhu Cheng said: "Of course. In fact, Concubine Zheng is still very good to us. If she hadn't advised Grandpa Shenzong, could you move out of the palace so smoothly and live outside? As far as I know, the prince left the palace underage, you are the only one in the history of the Ming Dynasty. Why didn't Concubine Zheng beg Grandpa Shenzong to make him the queen, but asked him to leave a will, because she was afraid that His Majesty Guangzong would be suspicious of a dark ghost and did something. You also know that if Concubine Zheng did not become the queen, she would not have the chance to be buried in Dingling after her death. Grandpa Shenzong and Concubine Zheng had a deep affection, would you bear to make Grandpa the Emperor uneasy in the nine springs?"

Zhu Youjian pulled his legs and left, saying, "I'll go and persuade the emperor brother to go."

Zhu Cheng quickly stopped him and said, "Don't worry, I'll go and persuade him first. If I can't persuade him, you can go and persuade him again. If we go at the same time, if His Majesty the Emperor disagrees, there will be no room for reincarnation."

After entering the palace, Zhu Cheng found that Emperor Tianqi looked very good. It seemed that his newlywed life was very satisfied.

When Emperor Tianqi saw him, he pulled his arm to a carriage and said, "Brother Cheng, it's done, look. Hehe, I'm smart."

Zhu Cheng was a little confused, and Emperor Tianqi said anxiously: "Didn't you ask me to study the four-wheeled carriage? I made it. Tu Wenfu, let the carriage run, and open his eyes to Brother Cheng."

Someone in the car responded, and the carriage ran briskly in the square outside the palace, turning left and right, and it was really awesome.

Zhu Cheng was stunned and thought to himself that Emperor Tianqi was really a carpenter and had developed such a flexible four-wheeled carriage so quickly.

When Emperor Tianqi saw Zhu Cheng's appearance, he was secretly happy. When he saw the carriage parked in front of him, he lifted the curtain and said, "Brother Cheng, look at it again."

Zhu Cheng saw that the carriage was full of bricks and stones. It turned out that the carriage was actually driving with a load.

Zhu Chengxi said: "Your Majesty, sell this car to me. I want ten cars, and I want them as much as possible."

Emperor Tianqi pondered for a while and said, "One, one thousand taels of silver per car, ten ten taels of silver. Alas, we brothers could not talk about money, and talking about money was hurting our relationship. But you also know the situation in the inner warehouse now, you can run a carriage if you are empty. Although you have offered me three strategies, the cost of the palace is still very tight. I have not given you any gifts to your sister-in-law until now."

Zhu Cheng said sincerely, I’m afraid you won’t be short of money.

He said to Emperor Tianqi with a look of surprise: "Congratulations to the Emperor, congratulations to the Emperor, I found a huge fortune for the Emperor, enough to fill the inner treasury."

Emperor Tianqi grabbed Zhu Cheng's arm excitedly and said, "Really? Where, where?"

Zhu Cheng did not answer, but just kept saying "Oh". Emperor Tianqi was a carpenter and was very strong. When he was excited, his subordinates almost broke Zhu Cheng's arm with force.

Emperor Apocalypse let go of his hand apologetically and said, "I'm reckless, are you okay?"

Zhu Cheng rubbed his sore arm and said, "Your Majesty almost killed the hero who made money for you. No, it must be a waste of money here. The emperor wants to pay me medical expenses, so he will give me a tael of silver."

Emperor Tianqi smiled and said, "If the inner treasury can really receive a large sum of money, I will fill you with these ten carriages with Meimengs and Easy Chairs. You know, Meimengs and Easy Chairs are in short supply in the capital now, and many high-ranking officials and nobles are queuing up to buy them."

Zhu Cheng took out the quotation written by Concubine Zheng and handed it to Emperor Tianqi. Emperor Tianqi looked at it, and his hands trembled slightly. After reading it, he handed it to Wei Zhongxian and said, "Parent Wei, you can take a look too."

Wei Zhongxian finished looking at it with a glance and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you're so happy. King Fu gave his monks and land, and the key was to hand over the tax collection rights and salt quotas, which could greatly increase the income of the court. The Ministry of Revenue said that the military pay was insufficient every day, so there was no worries now."

Wei Zhongxian was indeed a talented person in governing the world, and he suddenly discovered the key points on this document.

Emperor Tianqi laughed and said, "It turns out that the heroes have a similar view. Zhongxian, you and I have thought of it together."

"However," Emperor Tianqi asked suspiciously, "What are the conditions for Concubine Zheng? When she fought for this benefit for her son, she had a big fight with the ministers. I saw it with my own eyes. She shouldn't have handed over it so proactively."

Zhu Cheng said: "The Concubine Zheng actually has no outrageous conditions. She just wants to be the Empress Dowager and can sleep in the same cave with Emperor Shenzong Xian after her death."

Emperor Tianqi's face darkened, and he was about to say something. Wei Zhongxian pulled him aside and whispered for a long time.

Emperor Tianqi turned around and said, "For the sake of the Ming Dynasty, I agreed. However, it is not easy to deal with the ministers. Last year, Emperor Guangzong Zhen wanted to respect Concubine Zheng as the Empress Dowager, but they interrupted it, but they failed."

Zhu Cheng smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I have to worry about everything."

Emperor Tianqi smiled slightly and said, "It seems that I will pay a large number of easy chairs and Mei Mengsi. Li Yongzhen notified the carpenter to work overtime and make ten carriages. I will deliver them to my brother Cheng."
