    Zhu Youxiao knew that the "old men" Wang An was referring to were the eunuchs who were originally in charge of the East Factory and the Royal Horse Supervisor. Now that the Ming Dynasty has changed their owners, these eagle dogs that originally belonged to Concubine Zheng or Li Xuanshi can no longer be used.  However, these people are people of some status after all. Wang An dare not make the decision privately, so it is up to Zhu Youxiao to decide how to deal with them!

    Zhu Youxiao thought for a while and said: "There is already a fierce fight in the court. The inner court must be monolithic. You first choose the right people to hold up the situation between Dongchang and Yumajian, but there is no need for them.  Harshly, choose an imperial village outside the city for them to enjoy their old age in peace, make this matter a routine matter, and send all the old palace servants who have left the palace to the Zhuangzi for their retirement!"

    Wang An and the servants serving in the room all knelt down on the ground after hearing this. Wang An said with a tearful voice: "Young Master treats us slaves so kindly. If we don't die in service, we will no longer be raised by our parents!"

    The young eunuchs also said: "I am willing to die for my young master!"

    The reason why these eunuchs are so excited is because their fate is miserable. Not only are their bodies mutilated, but their living environment is also extremely harsh. Although the Forbidden City is magnificent, it is a place that eats people without spitting out their bones. The lives of eunuchs and palace maids are like grass.  , and disappeared silently at some point!

    If you are lucky enough to win the respect of your master and save some money, you will be able to spend your old age peacefully after leaving the palace. However, there are too few such people. Most eunuchs and maids will be in trouble after leaving the palace.  After their death, Zhu Youxiao gave them a place to retire, which was a great gift to these eunuchs!

    Zhu Youxiao is familiar with history and the tragic situation of these palace people, so he made such an arrangement. Now seeing Wang An and others so grateful, Zhu Youxiao also knows that they are doing this from the bottom of their hearts, so there is not much  What to say, he just waved his hands and said: "Don't live and die at every turn. As long as you perform your duties faithfully, this will be the greatest reward for you!"

    Wang An quickly took the lead and said: "Don't worry, young master, the slaves dare not forget the teachings of the young master!"

    At this time, a young eunuch walked in outside the door and came in to report: "Young Master, Mr. Zhou Jiamo, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Mr. Liu Yisui, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Mr. Yang Lian of the Ministry of War would like to see Mr. Yang Lian in this incident!"

    Zhu Youxiao then looked at the kneeling eunuchs and maids in the room and said, "Okay, let's all get up! It's not good for the adults in the outer court to see this. Besides, I'm also a little hungry. I want to see the adults outside."  We are all hungry too, Wang Banban went to ask the imperial kitchen to get some food, so that you don¡¯t starve your lords!"

    Wang An got up from the ground, bowed and said: "The dinner room has been delivered to the imperial dining room a long time ago, but the people below said that the young master was thinking about something and did not dare to disturb it, so they delayed it. I will ask them to leave the dinner here."  Bring the meal!"

    Zhu Youxiao nodded, and then said to the chamberlain who came in to report: "Please come in, three adults!"

    Not long after the chamberlain took the order and went out, Zhou Jiamo, Liu Yishui, and Yang Lian filed in. The three of them arrived in front of the soft couch and were about to salute. Zhu Youxiao stopped him and said: "Thank you for your hard work, sirs. This is not a court. Those common people are here."  The courtesy is waived.¡±

    Then Zhu Youxiaoyou said to Wang An: "Wang An, show me your seat to the three adults. I want to have dinner with the three adults!"

    Zhou Jiamo, Liu Yishui, and Yang Lian quickly thanked Zhu Youxiao, and then sat down under the arrangement of the young eunuch. Soon the dinner was served. Zhu Youxiao couldn't help shaking his head and sighing when he saw the dinner, although Wang An said it was simple.  There are many kinds of meals, but there are also many varieties and varieties. A large table is set up in front of Zhu Youxiao. Seeing such a scene, Zhu Youxiao can't help but frown!

    Wang An saw Zhu Youxiao frowning and asked quickly: "Young Master, is there anything you are dissatisfied about?"

    Zhu Youxiao sighed softly and said: "My grandfather and father died one after another. It can be said that this is a warning from heaven to our Ming Dynasty. In addition, there are rebellions caused by the Donglu outside, and there have been frequent disasters in the country for many years. This is the end of the world."  Such an appearance, and Gu¡¯s dinner is so extravagant and wasteful, it really makes Gu dare not look directly at it, if our Ming monarchs and ministers don¡¯t know how to restrain themselves and love the people, they will be destroying themselves!¡±

    "My servants (servants) are guilty, please punish your Highness (young master)!" As soon as Zhu Youxiao said these words, the three adults who had just sat down, as well as the eunuchs serving in the room, immediately fell to their knees.

    Zhu Youxiao quickly stood up and helped Zhou Jiamo, Liu Yishen and Yang Lian up and said: "The three adults are important ministers of the late emperor, and they are also the humerus that Gu will rely on in the future. As long as we, the emperor and the ministers, work together, we will definitely be able to overcome this difficulty.  Create a prosperous Ming Dynasty!"

    Yang Lian cried: "Your Highness has lofty aspirations, unparalleled benevolence and filial piety, and I have great hope of reviving the Ming Dynasty!"

    Zhu Youxiao smiled and said: "The resurgence of Ming Dynasty is not a matter of one person alone;What is most important is that all the adults in the DPRK and China should give up factional disputes and cooperate sincerely!  "

    Yang Lian was a bit more upright. After hearing Zhu Youxiao's words, he immediately swore and swore: "Your Highness, don't worry. I will definitely die with all my strength because of Your Highness's kindness!"

    But Zhou Jiamo and Liu Yishen, two veteran officials in the officialdom, glanced at each other secretly, and they all said one thing in their hearts: "This little emperor is not simple!"

    Zhu Youxiao used what he just said to give these three important ministers a nod and asked them to restrain themselves on the matter of party struggle. Then he stopped talking about these things and asked these three to sit down again!

    The three adults here had just sat down, and Zhu Youxiao said to Wang An who had just gotten up: "Wang Ban, please go and tell the imperial dining room that from today on, except for festivals and banquets, your daily meal consumption will be fixed every day."  On a tael of silver.¡±

    "Ouch! Young Master, this is absolutely impossible. You are a man of ten thousand gold, how could you treat the Holy Body so harshly?" Wang Angang got up, and when he heard this, he quickly knelt on the ground, crying with tears streaming down his face.  The eunuchs also knelt on the ground, begging Zhu Youxiao to take back his life!

    The three adults who had just sat down looked at the scene and knew that sitting there was not the case, so they had no choice but to get up and leave their seats again and kneel on the ground!

    Zhou Jiamo advised: "Your Highness has a valuable status, and your daily expenses must not be reduced. Otherwise, it will damage the royal dignity and make it difficult for the common people to have a sense of awe!"

    Liu Yishen also followed up and said: "What Mr. Zhou said is that this matter is related to the royal dignity and must not be ignored. Your Highness, please think twice!"

    Zhu Youxiao raised his hand, stopped everyone's dissuasion, and said in a deep voice: "I have decided on this matter, you adults, there is no need to dissuade me any more. Besides, I only spend one tael of food a day, which is three dollars a year."  One hundred and sixty-five taels. I am a county magistrate in the Ming Dynasty. My annual salary is only thirty-five taels of silver. The food alone is ten times more than the annual salary of those Qingtian lords. Not to mention that the small people in Shengdou have a family of several people. They have enough food and clothing.  It only costs a few taels of silver to live a year, and Gu is already extremely expensive compared to them. Add in all the expenses for clothing, transportation, and other miscellaneous things. It adds up to tens of thousands of taels of silver just because Gu spent it alone.  , Gu Gu¡¯s heart hurts just thinking about it. Furthermore, there are so many people in this palace who serve the royal family. Naturally, the expenses of these people must be recorded on Gu¡¯s head. If you think about it, after calculating it like this, Gu Gu¡¯s expenses will be  , can be worth thousands of people, which makes it even more difficult for me to sleep and eat well!"

    Zhu Youxiao's words can be said to be sincere. Zhou Jiamo and Liu Yishen couldn't help but secretly gasped after hearing this. Yang Lian was already bursting into tears, grabbing his head and crying: "The Holy Lord descended from heaven."  For our Ming Dynasty, there is hope for ZTE in our Ming Dynasty, and there is hope for ZTE!"

    Although Zhou Jiamo and Liu Yishen also said a few words about the coming of the Holy King, they felt chills in their hearts. Ministers are not afraid of the emperor being stupid, nor are they afraid of the emperor being wise. What they are afraid of is that the emperor knows everything, what the hell.  We all understand that such an emperor is the most difficult to serve, and the man in front of me is probably such an emperor!

    After the three of them sang their praises for a while, Zhu Youxiao invited them to sit down again. This time Zhu Youxiao didn't say anything more, but ate quietly. The three adults were also hungry all day, so they finally sat down to eat something.  He didn't care about etiquette, and at the same time he was afraid that Zhu Youxiao would do something wrong later, so he had to eat in a hurry!
