    Zhu Youxiao and Fang Congzhe were strolling on the streets of the capital. Although there were people coming and going around them, most of them were guards from the inner court. Ordinary people were cleverly separated, so that Zhu Youxiao and his party would not be exposed.  They don't let ordinary people get close to them because of their sudden appearance!

    It was already mid-September, and even in the daytime you could feel a bit of chill, which showed that the Little Ice Age had become more and more serious. Zhu Youxiao had been silent since he left the restaurant. This silence made Fang Congzhe  Even the old foxes in the officialdom feel a little uncomfortable!

    After walking for a while, Fang Congzhe finally broke the silence. He whispered: "Did His Majesty's methods against Donglin and Southeast big families be too drastic? I think that for the sake of the stability of the court, it is better to tone down some!"

    Zhu Youxiao laughed at himself and said: "If I had been the emperor thirty years earlier, I would have taken care of it. But now that Ming Dynasty is seriously ill and dead, I don't have time to deal with those people, so I can only use strong medicine."  , a heavy hand, if it works, Ming Dynasty still has a glimmer of hope, if it doesn¡¯t work, it¡¯s just a matter of changing dynasties!¡±

    This was not the first time that Fang Congzhe heard Zhu Youxiao make such a serious evaluation of the situation in the Ming Dynasty, but as the chief minister of the dynasty, he really couldn't understand why Zhu, a young emperor, would be so pessimistic about his own world, even if  Fang Congzhe himself also knew that Ming Dynasty was facing internal and external troubles, but he didn't really think that Ming Dynasty would end like this!

    "Although His Majesty's words are concerned about the country and the people, in the opinion of the veteran, although the Ming Dynasty is in troubled times, it is far from a matter of changing the dynasty. The veteran also asks Your Majesty to cheer up and take the resurgence of the Ming Dynasty as your own responsibility!" Fang Congzhe advised very much!  Formulaic, but also expressing his own opinions.

    "I understand what Mr. Fang Ge said, and I will not give up easily. But at this time, the Ming Dynasty is like a carriage rushing towards the cliff. If it can turn around, the sea and the sky will naturally be brighter. But if it cannot turn around, naturally the world will be brighter.  That is to say, it is doomed. I hope the cabinet and court officials will have a clear understanding of this!" Zhu Youxiao took a deep breath and spoke in a slightly heavy tone!

    "Why does Your Majesty think that the Ming Dynasty has reached such a stage? The old ministers dare not agree with this statement, and the officials in the court also dare not agree with it!" Lao Fang got angry at Zhu Youxiao's stubbornness, and his tone became stiff!

    "It's not surprising that Fang Congzhe is angry. How can an emperor say that his court is going to be destroyed every day?"  Moreover, Zhu Youxiao regarded the Ming Dynasty at this time as the end of the world. Doesn't that mean that the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, including Fang Congzhe, were all subject to the subjugation of the country?  Fang Congzhe is unwilling to accept such an evaluation no matter what!

    Zhu Youxiao looked at the angry old Fang and realized that this old man also had a temper. He smiled and said: "There is no need to be angry, Mr. Fang Ge. Please listen to me analyze the situation at hand, and then evaluate what I have done."  Are you exaggerating?"

    Fang Congzhe clasped his fists and said, "I am all ears!"

    Zhu Youxiao sighed softly and said: "Let me first talk about the internal worries of the Ming Dynasty. Mr. Fang Ge has been in charge of the court for more than ten years. He should have realized that the weather has become colder and colder in the past twenty years, natural disasters have become more and more serious, and people's lives have gradually deteriorated.  Difficulty, coupled with the increase in population and land annexation, most of the land was concentrated in the hands of a few people, while the common people who became tenants had to bear heavy taxes and corvees. If this situation continues for another ten or twenty years, the lives of the common people will  Mr. Fang Ge should know what it will be like!"

    As Zhu Youxiao said, Fang Congzhe, as the chief minister of the cabinet, was very aware of the things Zhu Youxiao said, but Fang Congzhe never thought that such things would turn into the bane of the country's subjugation, but after what Zhu Youxiao said  , Fang Congzhe felt a dark cloud suddenly rise in his heart!

    Zhu Youxiao looked at the people on the street and said calmly: "The people of Ming Dynasty are the most simple people in the world. They are so simple that as long as they have a bite to eat, they will kneel down and kowtow to you, admitting that you are their god, but  If there are no more people to eat, they will simply pick up anything and cut meat from your body to satisfy their hunger. The first thing I have to solve is the problem of feeding the people of the world, and this is also the most difficult to solve!"

    Fang Congzhe wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: "The water conservancy project in the North has been started. Liu Yishui and Yang Lian will also take care of the south-to-north grain diversion. The people's food supply will eventually be solved. In this way, the world will be better."  Wouldn¡¯t it be peaceful?¡±

    Zhu Youxiao shook his head and said: "This only treats the symptoms but not the root cause. Even after more than ten years, the days after the Ming Dynasty will still be difficult, and sooner or later all the accumulated conflicts will completely break out. By that time, the Ming Dynasty  It will still be finished, and the people of the world will still suffer!"

    Fang Congzhe leaned forward and asked, "Does your Majesty have any solution to the root cause?"

    Zhu Youxiao looked at Fang Congzhe and asked: "What can Mr. Fang Ge do?"?Is there a way?  "

    Fang Congzhe said quickly: "I am stupid, I really can't think of any solution!"

    Zhu Youxiao looked at Fang Congzhe, and after a long time he smiled and said: "It's not that Mr. Fang Ge has nothing to do, it's just that he doesn't dare to say it. You don't dare to say it, but I dare to say it. If you want to cure the root cause, it's just to reduce the population or increase it."  Land, or using business to support the country, there is no other way except these three strategies, but judging from the current situation, reducing the population is unkind and cannot be done under any circumstances. Increasing the land cannot be done. After all, we are now even connected to the Eastern Han Dynasty.  If you can't defeat them, how can you expand the territory? You don't dare to support the country through business. This matter is too involved, and you may lose your reputation, so the matter has reached a stalemate. Now many people in the DPRK actually know it.  These principles are just that even if the Ming Dynasty was destroyed and countless people were devastated, they would not say it or do it. To put it bluntly, it only means being wise and protecting yourself. Mr. Fangge, do you think I am right?"

    Fang Congzhe sighed lightly, bowed slightly and said: "Now I have finally confirmed that Your Majesty is the immortal hero. I am willing to take the lead for Your Majesty, overcome obstacles for Your Majesty, and help His Majesty achieve great achievements!"

    Zhu Youxiao nodded and said: "If Mr. Fang Ge can wholeheartedly help me revive the Ming Dynasty, I promise that your family will be a prince forever!"

    After hearing Zhu Youxiao's promise, Fang Congzhe couldn't help but his heart stopped for a beat. It was a rare thing for civil servants to be knighted after the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Even Yu Qian and Zhang Juzheng didn't have a title. If he Fang Congzhe  If Zheneng can be knighted, it at least means that he has surpassed these two seniors!

    Thinking of this exciting prospect, Fang Congzhe said firmly: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will not let you down!"

    Zhu Youxiao was very satisfied with his multi-faceted attitude and said with a smile: "Liu Yishen and Yang Lian will convey the message to the big companies in the southeast. I don't know how they will do it, but my request is very simple. This winter, the Northland water conservancy project must  Once it¡¯s completed, the people in the North must have food and clothing.¡±

    Fang Congzhe said respectfully: "Old minister, I have written it down!"

    At this time, there was a loud noise from the front. The guards around Zhu Youxiao immediately divided into two teams. One team surrounded Zhu Youxiao, Fang Congzhe, and Wang An in the middle, while the other team showed their weapons and surrounded the defense circle.  It expanded by more than ten feet. Pedestrians on the road suddenly saw this posture and knew that a dignitary was in front of them, so they immediately dispersed around.

    "Okay, it's no big deal, put them all away, let's go over and see what's going on!" Zhu Youxiao looked at the guards and said helplessly.

    The reaction of these guards was too amateurish. Zhu Youxiao felt that with their protection, he might have been blamed for the assassin without even seeing his face. But now is not the time to pursue these matters.  He could only lead the people to the noisy place in front!

    The guard here showed his guy, which also alerted the noisy people. Seeing Zhu Youxiao and others coming, the people who were watching the excitement quickly moved out of the way, which allowed Zhu Youxiao to see clearly what was going on inside!
