Chapter 483

After Zhang Hao arrived in Tangshan, he was busy working on iron and boat workshops. At the construction site, he hired tens of thousands of people to work. The people are happy now. Whatever the court had to do before was dispatched to labor service.

But now Zhang Hao is here, not sending labor but hiring workers to work. The wages are also very high, and the people are doing great things. Many people also push carts to sell things, selling everything. As long as there is a need, they will sell it, which has led many people to work here, and the whole market is full of lively.

This time, it was almost a month before we knew it. The iron houses here have begun to form a prototype. Many houses have been built, and the same is true for the shipyard. Zhang Hao has built many houses.

However, on the other hand, although no one impeached Zhang Hao on the surface, there was always an undercurrent surging in secret. First, starting from the ministers around the three princes, they kept saying bad things about Zhang Hao, making the three princes think that Zhang Hao was a treacherous minister and a treacherous minister around the emperor. Doing so would put the Ming Dynasty in a desperate situation.

After all, Zhang Hao had killed the vassal kings before, and the vassal kings were the foundation of the Ming Dynasty rule. Jiajing also knew the news and specifically warned the three princes, but the three princes were all very young and did not understand many things. Those gentlemen educated them like this, and they would definitely be affected.

"This memorial was written by the prefect of Yongzhou. It said that there are a large number of people working and doing business around Zhang Hao's iron workshop and ship workshop. Well, you can take a look!" Jiajing handed it to the prince with the memorial written by Yang Renqian.

The prince took it and took a look, and gave it to King Yu. After King Yu finished reading it, he then handed it to King Jing.

"Tell me, what impact will Zhang Hao do this have on the Ming Dynasty?" Jiajing sat there and asked.

After hearing this, the prince immediately bowed and said, "Father, this is inappropriate!"

After hearing this, Jiajing was stunned for a moment. It was not appropriate. This move was not appropriate. Jiajing looked at the prince with some difficulty, but did not make a sound. Instead, he continued to look at him and signaled him to continue talking.

"Originally those who work were farmers, and workers had a lower status. Now, those people give up their peasant status and do not farm, but instead work. This is not suitable and delays farming.

In addition, Zhang Hao was suspected of spending money in the court by randomly. The court gave him money to him and asked him to run a workshop. He had mobilized a large number of craftsmen from Datong before. The minister learned that Zhang Hao had already offered to those craftsmen double their salary. Now, Zhang Hao still wants to hire the people. Isn’t this a waste of money in the court?” the prince bowed to Jiajing and said.

"Well, according to your opinion, how can Zhang Hao do it?" Jiajing did not directly refute the prince, but looked at the prince and asked.

"I don't know this, but many ministers oppose Zhang Hao's establishment of a workshop in Tangshan. This is too close to the capital. Once an attack occurs in the capital, the workshop will be destroyed soon, especially this is an iron workshop. At that time, the Tatars will come and snatch pig iron. It will be very unfavorable for my Ming Dynasty!" The prince continued to bow to Jiajing and said.

"Don't you know? Well, I'm worried that the Tatars will kill them and let the iron from the Tiefang flow into the Tatars' hands, right?" Jiajing asked calmly.

"Yes!" The prince nodded, Jiajing didn't say anything, and immediately looked at Prince Yu.

"Return to my father, I think this is a very good move. Now it is the slack season, so it is good to let the people do some work and make some money. However, the gentlemen in the house said that it is wrong for the Barbarian brother to do this. As the prince said, but I still think that the Barbarian brother did the right thing!" King Yu stood there and spoke,

He remembered his mother's words. He had to say good things about Zhang Hao in the Danfang. Because his father trusted Zhang Hao, he would exaggerate Hao. However, King Yu had a good relationship with Zhang Hao since he was a child, and he didn't want to say bad things about Zhang Hao.

"Well, why did you do the right thing? You don't know? And the ministers in your house, like your elder brother, say that Zhang Hao wasted money?" Jiajing nodded and asked very calmly.

"Yes, but I'm still young and haven't visited the people yet, so I don't know about the people. But Brother Barbarian knows that I heard that the people near the capital say that Brother Barbarian is doing well and that he is a good official!" King Yu continued to bow and said.

"How do you know?" Jiajing continued to ask.

"What the servants in my house said is that some of their families are in the suburbs. They all say that Brother Manzi is a good official and a good official who does practical things for the people. Therefore, the minister thinks that Brother Manzi is right!" King Yu then asked.

"Well, what about you?" Jiajing said as he looked at King Jing. King Jing immediately bowed and said, and then he didn't know what to say, he was still young.

"Speak whatever!" Jiajing asked with a smile as he looked at King Jing.

"Son-member, I agree with my elder brother. Zhang Hao has taken so much money in the court and so many craftsmen to work. Why do he still have to hire people to work? He can send labor service!" The King of Jin bowed to Jiajing and said.

"Well, I'm done!" Jiajing looked at King Jing and continued to ask.

"Yes!" King Jing nodded immediately and said.

"Okay!" Jiajing said OK,

Then he sat there thinking about how to deal with this matter. Now there are people around the three princes deliberately saying bad things about Zhang Hao, hoping to plant a seed in the hearts of those princes. When they are a hundred years later, they may not be able to tolerate Zhang Hao anymore.

Zhang Hao is the marquis. If the three princes want to kill Zhang Hao, it will really touch the foundation of the Ming Dynasty. Zhang Hao is not Qiu Luan, Qiu Luan is a traitor, and Zhang Hao has made a lot of contributions to the Ming Dynasty. Zhang Hao's father is still the British Duke, and his grandfather is the Duke of Wei.

If they really kill Zhang Hao then, then the Ming Dynasty will be in trouble. Those civil officials must put the Ming Dynasty in a state of endless disaster.

The key is that they don’t know at all that Zhang Hao’s prestige among the people, Jiajing knew. In Shanxi, the people exaggerated Hao’s goodness, and in Shuntian Prefecture, the people also exaggerated Hao’s goodness. They exaggerated Hao’s goodness means praising Jiajing’s goodness. In other words, in these two places, the people can live and work in peace and contentment without worrying about treason.

And if Zhang Hao was dealt with by the three of them, how would the people in these two places think of them? Will they be able to firmly hold the throne of the Ming Dynasty?

"Father?" The prince saw Jiajing sitting there thinking for a long time, and immediately bowed and shouted.

"Well, Prince, you have been by my side for half a year. You are the crown prince and the crown prince. What do you think is the most important thing in the Ming Dynasty?" Jiajing said as he looked at the crown prince. The prince was stunned for a moment. This question was a bit big and he didn't know where to talk about it.

"Of course the people are important to the Ming Dynasty!" The prince thought about it and said, "The country is the most important, the people are the next, and the king is the least important. They know this."

"Well, you also know that the people are important, but they all say that the people are important. Then, how do you think that the people are important?" Jiajing continued to ask the prince.

"This is to make it have clothes and food!" the prince continued to bow and said.

"Well, how can I make it have food and clothes? What's the point?" Jiajing continued to ask.

"This is to allow them to farm and make money!" the prince continued.

"Farming and making money. Does Zhang Hao do what he does, so that the people can have land to plant and make money?" Jiajing asked as he looked at the prince.

"This! Father, Zhang Hao is taking our royal money to the people. This is a squander!" The prince continued to bow and said.

"The royal money, what do they tell you?" Jiajing asked after hearing this.

"Yes, what the ministers said!" the prince nodded and said honestly.

At this moment, Lu Fang stood there and shook her head, knowing in her heart that the prince was probably deposed. Jiajing was very angry. The prince was in poor health, so Jiajing had the heart to change the prince, but as the father, who doesn’t feel sorry for his son?

But now, the prince obeys the words of those ministers so much and does not think about it by himself. Moreover, the prince actually agrees with those ministers denying Zhang Hao's words. This is not a fatal feasibility. If they deny Zhang Hao, they deny Jiajing, because all this was done by Jiajing.

"Well, you go and rest!" Jiajing didn't want to speak at this moment, but waved his hand at them. Soon, the three princes said goodbye, and Lu Fang stood there without saying anything, just lowered her head.

"This kid has been there for more than a month, right?" Jiajing asked.

"Yes, it's been more than a month since I returned to the emperor!" Lu Fang replied immediately.

"Let him come back!" Jiajing said.

"Yes, I will let the Jinyiwei notify me later!" Lu Fang bowed and said.

"Chen Hong!" Jiajing shouted.

"I'm here!" Chen Hong stood up immediately.

"What's going on in the East Palace? There are also Prince Yu's Mansion, Prince Jing's Mansion, and what's going on with those ministers? Why do they say bad things about Zhang Hao?" Jiajing asked.

"I guess I'm still unbalanced when I go back to the emperor. They know now that it's difficult to defeat Zhang Hao head-on, so they want to start from the three princes!" Chen Hong bowed to Jiajing and said.

"All arrests are all, interrogate them one by one!" Jiajing gritted his teeth and waved his hand, and said.

"Ah, this, the emperor, no, right? If you arrest him, then the prince, Prince Yu and others will definitely be even more dissatisfied!" Chen Hong looked at Jiajing in surprise and asked.

"Catch it, arrest it all, interrogate the reason, and then hand it over to the Ministry of Justice!" Jiajing gritted his teeth and turned his head to stare at Chen Hong and said glaringly. Chen Hong actually questioned his orders.
