"Who are you?"

Zhu Youqi turned his head, took a look, and concluded from his clothes that this man should be a grand relative and a rich family.

Immediately, he sneered again, slowed down his tone and said:

"Which wealthy family is the noble son of a wealthy family, you need to know who you are in charge today!"

"I know, Prince Gui's Mansion..." When he said this, Zhu Youxiao seemed extremely calm, which made Zhu Youqiu secretly shocked.

"Die or not."

The emperor asked about the beaten farmer. Wang Chaofu rushed forward, tried it, and frowned and said:

"My master, you still have a breath..."

"Send him to be treated, you need to be cured." Zhu Youxiao said, and turned to Zhu Youqiu, who was stunned and said:

"Take me to your palace, I have something to say to Prince Gui."

"You're the onion-"

This was whirlwind in Zhu Youqi's mouth, but he still couldn't say it. He felt in his heart that the handsome little official in front of him was not a mortal.

The group came to the gate of Prince Gui's Mansion and looked at the butler who invited him into it. Zhu Youxiao sneered, stood with his hands behind his back, and said:

"Call him to invite me in person."

Soon, Zhu Changying, who was confused, was awakened from his sleep and went out with anger, intending to meet this noble young man who was unknown.

As soon as Fang went out, he widened his eyes:

"Emperor, Your Majesty... are you back?"

As he finished speaking, everyone around him was shocked, especially Zhu Youyu, who spoke a lot of harsh words in the imperial village, was even more as white as frost and no longer had the arrogance he had just now.

"No gift."

Zhu Youxiao glared coldly at Zhu Changying, who was still tall and tall. He walked into the Guiwang Mansion first and sat down at the first seat of the main hall. Then he said:

"Come here, tied up!"

Immediately, several Jinyiwei who had been following him had no face to give him, so he separated two people, one on the left and the other on the right to pinch Zhu Youqi.

"Emperor...Emperor!?"

The emperor was younger than himself, but his words were simple and clear. Zhu Youqiu, who had not turned around for a while, did not resist, but seemed a little overwhelmed.

"I ask you why you should obstruct the implementation of national policies!"

"Do you know that because you alone, how many innocent people will starve to death because of the fact that sweet potatoes are not allowed to be grown in time?"

"Zhu Youqi, you will never be redeemed!"

"Why don't you apologize to the emperor and plead for mercy-" Zhu Changying gave his son a few winks, but he was not too nervous.

I think it was in his opinion that this matter was just a formality, otherwise why did the emperor come in contempt, but he didn't mobilize all his troops.

When Zhu Youqiu admitted his guilt, Zhu Changying explained:

"My son is not polite and will not commit it again next time. I hope the emperor can handle it lightly and forgive him this time..."

"Next time, do you want to have a next time?" Zhu Youxiao's eyes rose, and after a moment he returned to tranquility, and said in a cold voice:

"Your relatives in Prince Gui's Mansion are the ones I have the most and most difficult to manage among the emperors in Beijing."

"I have many brothers, all of whom are about the same age as him. He is the first to do such a thing."

"If there is no severe punishment, wouldn't it be clear to the people of the world that the royal relatives can be blind to the king's laws and obstruct the national policy at will?"

"Sweet potato summer seeds are related to the lives of tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of people. They are blocked by him alone. How many people want their families to be destroyed..."

"When I was still in the southwest, I was extremely angry when I heard this news. I swear in my heart."

"When I return to Beijing in triumphant success, I will never forgive anyone who bullies the people and uses personal intentions to show off my will. You will not be joking!"

Zhu Youxiao ignored others' persuasion, raised his eyebrows, pulled out the emperor's sword from his waist, and looked straight at him and asked:

"Do you know your guilt?"

Zhu Youqiu was so brave that he dared not look at each other and said in a muffled voice:

"If those unlucky people are not punished, their tails will not be raised to the sky. You are my emperor brother, and you are actually facing those unlucky people."

The voice was very small, and only Zhu Youxiao and a few others could hear it.

Zhu Youxiao smiled, put the sword into the sheath, turned around and said, "Declared to a commoner and exiled to the southwest."

"In this way, it can be considered as a contribution to the court."

"Your Majesty, how can you--"

Zhu Changying thought it was a formality, so he just wanted to admit his guilt and said a few words. Unexpectedly, he wanted to come true, so he changed his face immediately:

"The emperor cannot believe the one-sided words of these troublemakers. My son is in the royal palace every day, and he is well-behaved and honest. How can he abuse the people?"

Zhu Youxiao held the hilt tightly and said:

"Uncle Emperor means to fight me to the end?"

As soon as these words were said, the onlookers woke up as if they were dreaming. They all realized that the emperor’s true intention was to make decisions for the people and punish royal relatives who ignored laws and regulations.

These words scattered everywhere, accompanied by the news of the victory, aroused the enthusiasm of the crowd.

Zhu Youxiao looked around and saw that the emperor deliberately stayed away from him for a few steps. He was disappointed. Then, a sneer appeared on his lips, which made Zhu Changying's heart tremble.

Soon, the sound came from above, with determination:

"From today, the Ministry of Rites will be in charge of the affairs of the Ministry of Rites, and the Zongren Mansion will be in charge of the affairs of the Zongren Mansion, and the British Duke Zhang Weixian and the Zongren Mansion will be in charge of the affairs of the Zongren Mansion."

"In the future, the salary, title, marriage and other matters of King Gui's Mansion must be reported to the clan mansion first. If anyone acts without authorization, he will be infiltrated into the clan mansion and abolished as a commoner."

"When I return to the palace, I will issue an order immediately!"

After saying that, Zhu Youxiao jumped from the top and planned to go to Tongzhou to lead troops back to Beijing immediately, and solve all the accumulated problems one by one.

As soon as he reached the door, he suddenly turned his head and said to Zhu Youqiu:

"At the latest tomorrow, I will invite you to the clan's house for tea."

The meaning is very obvious. Now I can’t do anything to you, but once I return to the palace, I will have to leave a new order to increase the rights of the clan’s mansion.

You can protect him for a while, but you can't protect him for a lifetime!

The clan mansions in the Ming Dynasty were different from those in the Qing Dynasty.

The Zongren Mansion was established in the early Ming Dynasty and was called the Grand Principal Court in the third year of Hongwu. At first, it only had the nine emperors in charge of the record of the emperors and compiled the jade certificates on time.

It was not until the 22nd year of Hongwu that the name was changed to the Zongren Mansion that the power gradually increased, and the children of the royal family began to record the legitimate and illegitimate names, titles, life and death time, marriage, posthumous titles, and burial matters.

When it was time for Jianwen, Zhu Yunwen further gave the clan mansion greater power.

It is stipulated that all clan members’ statements and requests shall be reported to the clan’s office, and talented people shall be introduced to record the crimes, responsibilities and negligence of clan members.

After Yongle, the privileges of clan relatives increased, and the affairs under the jurisdiction of the clan mansion were handed over to the Ministry of Rites for handling. Until now, the clan mansion was in name only.

Zhu Youxiao's decisive reform can be said to have completely revitalized the only institution that restricts clan relatives.

Not only will it be revitalized, but in another day, the clan mansion will become the "East Factory" that specializes in clan relatives, which has greater power than the Jianwen Dynasty.

This edict not only stipulates that the clan family has the right to supervise clans again, but also for the first time there was a precedent for the clan family to be deposed as common people and arrested in the clan family for custody.

......

In October, the autumn is pleasant, and the temperature in the southwest is more comfortable.

It has been several months since the personal expedition, and the capital was still the same, but the emperor who left the capital at that time was no longer immature.

The busy capital market has not seen such a scene for many years. The people spontaneously organized themselves early in the morning and waited for the army to return triumphantly on both sides of the street.

The entire number of soldiers in Shuntian Prefecture was still in a difficult position, so they had to temporarily notify the Five City Military Command and ask them to send troops to help maintain order.

Soon, the emperor in military uniform rode a tall horse and led the brave and warlike Yongwei camp into Yongding Gate.

As the flags floated, there were cheering shouts.

This day of triumph was destined to be the time when Emperor Tianqi and his subordinates were recorded in history. They followed the emperor, and everyone held their heads and chests.

After the army, the heroic deeds of the emperor leading his army to pacify the southwest and obtaining great victory were heard, and nursery rhymes were sung everywhere.
