Ming Dynasty: My Brother-in-law is Zhu Youxiao - Chapter 453
Chapter 453 The eldest princess shows off her power, hit me hard!
As soon as Princess Rongchang finished speaking, Princess Le’an asked in surprise, “Auntie, is there an edict for restructuring?”
Princess Rongchang nodded her head: “The Holy Majesty has approved the reform of the royal court system by the Chief Policy Officer. I have been appointed You Zongzheng of the Clan Mansion. All the servants employed in the Princess Mansion in Beijing will be managed by the Clan Mansion, and I will no longer be responsible for teaching etiquette. In the future, the study of women’s uterus will be responsible for teaching the court women to read.”
“This is really good!”
Princess Le An jumped up happily.
Princess Shouning also smiled slightly.
“What kind of reason is this? Why are you arresting us? We did something wrong! Absurd! We are from the Princess Mansion, so it’s your turn to take care of it!”
At this time, the drunken nuns who were **** by Princess Rongchang’s order were still not aware of it because they were still drunk, and they were still bluffing, seeming very annoyed.
Snapped!
It wasn’t until after the board went down that these drunken nuns woke up when they were howling, and for a moment they had to stare wide-eyed, thinking to themselves what happened.
“Ouch!”
However, before these drunk nuns could understand, they were hit by the board again and screamed.
The abnormal ethics system in the Ming Dynasty made the princesses of the Ming Dynasty very aggrieved.
Princesses can only marry civilians, the key is that civilians who marry princesses can no longer be officials.
Therefore, many enterprising sons-in-law generally would not be called to run for the son-in-law, so that most of the candidates for the son-in-law are bad or fun-loving people, and even if the emperor is serious, he forcibly chooses a man with a suitable appearance for the princess As a son-in-law, but because of her status as a princess, she cannot live a normal married life with her son-in-law.
When the princess meets the son-in-law, according to the system, the princess basically orders the housekeeper to summon the son-in-law, and it should not be too frequent.
The housekeeper and the nuns also have the right to refuse the son-in-law to see the princess.
Over time, it develops into a situation where the princess and the son-in-law need to beg the housekeeper and the mother-in-law Jiaoyin, and even bribe the housekeeper and the mother-in-law Jiaoyin to meet each other.
So, this makes these nuns often deceive the Lord in the name of teaching etiquette in the Princess Mansion, and do evil.
Princess Rongchang herself was also deeply hurt by it, so she showed no mercy to these drunk nuns, and directly asked to be beaten to death to vent her dissatisfaction.
Snapped!
“It hurts! Why are you hitting us!”
“What a mistake we made, what a mistake we made!”
“This is obviously the princess’ mansion, we should teach others, how come we are being taught by you! Woooooo!”
These drunken nuns asked with a sense of injustice.
Princess Rongchang had a cold face at this time, and said with a sneer: “Why did you hit you? Because you violated the laws of the emperor and the country!”
Finished speaking.
Princess Rongchang took out the imperial decree: “Did you see it? This is the imperial decree just issued. According to the imperial decree, all the servants of you princess mansion will be managed by Youzong of the clan manor from now on! This princess was appointed by His Majesty.” You Zongzheng! If it is light, you will be thrown out, if it is serious, you will be killed with a stick, but you guys don’t talk about drinking, but you also speak wild words, and you don’t pay attention to the royal family and nobles at all, not to mention that you will be killed with a stick!”
Immediately, Princess Rongchang shouted sharply: “Hit me hard!”
Snapped!
The eunuchs who were born in the Jingjun of the inner court were all strong eunuchs, so these drunken nuns were held down so that they could not move at all, and these drunken nuns could only bear heavy boards.
Some drunken nuns cried because they couldn’t bear the pain, and because they understood the reason, “Forgive me! Your Highness! I don’t dare to do it again, old slave! We just got greedy on a whim.” Cup!”
“You are sent to the Princess Mansion to serve the princess, not to be old ladies here!”
“Drinking one by one has tarnished the princess mansion, not to mention the bad influence on the reputation of the princess mansion, and also damaged the face of my royal family. If you don’t punish you evil slaves today, where will you let the face of my royal family go? ?! If you say that my Zhu family is widely despised by the people of the world, half of the reason is that the descendants of the Zhu family are incompetent, but you evil slaves should also bear half of the responsibility!”
Princess Rongchang raised her eyebrows and gnashed her teeth to reprimand these drunken nuns, and continued to order: “Hit! Hit hard!”
Snapped!
Snapped!
Snapped!
…
Not long after, these drunken nuns were beaten until their mouths were full of blood, and in the end, they all died.
Princess Le’an and Princess Shouning naturally felt happy watching from the sidelines.
Because of this, many princess consorts were very grateful to Zhang Gui for this reform.
Consort Gong Yonggu even wrote poems praising Zhang Gui for this.
But in fact, this restructuring is not a major restructuring for Zhang Gui.
The reason why he changed the system specifically for this purpose is because as a modern person, he still has some humanistic care for others.
However, his easy-going humanistic care made the concubine of the princess of Ming Dynasty no longer bound by the deformed etiquette system.
For Zhang Gui, the really important restructuring he is presiding over right now is the currency reform.
Daming has always used silver or some silver coins from Xiyi as currency.
In fact, it is very troublesome to use silver as currency, especially in the transaction, which requires various operations of cutting, cutting, and sucking, which seriously affects the efficiency of transactions, and it is also very inconvenient when collecting taxes. Many often need to be reworked.
Therefore, Zhang Gui is determined to formalize and modernize the currency system of Ming Dynasty, and prepare for it to become an international currency in the future and harvest global leeks.
For this reason, Zhang Guirang Yousi established the new currency style of the Ming Dynasty, and was appointed by Tianqi as the silver coin of the Ming Dynasty.
The so-called Daming silver dollar is naturally a silver-based metal currency.
In fact, according to the development of currency history, the national currency can already use paper money as the national currency, but because the treasure banknotes have been played badly by the court, now the people have no confidence in paper money, so they can only temporarily use silver coins as the new currency of Daming.
Moreover, Daming’s current smelting technology has developed very well, and the alloy technology has also made great progress. After all, the steam industry has emerged, which has completely realized the forging production of a large number of silver coins, and can also make silver coins doped with some other rare metals with a fixed content. , making it more difficult for silver coins to be counterfeited.
Therefore, there is a technical basis for issuing silver coins.
Therefore, shortly after Zhang Gui decided to carry out currency reform, the Industrial Division quickly produced the first batch of new silver coins worth five million taels of silver.
At the same time, Zhang Guizuo asked the apocalypse to issue an edict to establish the Daming Bank as the only bank in Daming that issued the silver coin, that is, the central bank.
In order to circulate the silver coins as soon as possible, Zhang Gui took the lead in asking his steam railway firm to only accept silver coins when selling train tickets.
This made many officials and citizens who wanted to experience steam locomotives had to go to the Daming Bank to exchange silver coins.
“I have exchanged the silver coins, will you go to the capital with me?”
In the late autumn of the fourteenth year of Tianqi, on the clear and cold Gobi Desert, Zhu Yujian took the silver coins exchanged from the Xuanfu Branch of Daming Bank to find Nuyin from the Chechen Khan Department and asked Nuyin.
