After determining that Zhao Liangdong would flee back to Guizhou without returning, Zhu Youlang also led his troops back to the court.

The soldiers and civilians of Chengdu greeted the Son of Heaven and the king as warmly as the people of Yibin.

Zhu Youlang rode on a tall horse and waved to the people, enjoying this rare moment of comfort.

Back in the palace, Zhu Youlang summoned Wen Anzhi as soon as possible.

First, I want to understand the movements of the Qing army in Hanzhong.

Second, I also want to ask how the prince is doing these days.

As the first assistant of the cabinet and the mentor of the prince, Wen Anzhi obviously has the most right to speak.

People are in good spirits on happy occasions, and Wen Anzhi's complexion does look much better than before.

Zhu Youlang was naturally happy.

If Wen Anzhi can live a long life, it will definitely be a great benefit to Daming.

"Wen Qing, sit down."

This kind of thing is no longer needed to be said by Zhu Youlang himself.

As long as Wen Anzhi enters the hall, Han Miao will immediately order someone to send Jindun over.

"Your Majesty, the old minister."

Now the two have reached a consensus.

The face saint of Wen'an does not need to give a big gift, he only needs to arch his hand.

"Wen Qing has worked hard."

Zhu Youlang and said.

"This should be said by the old minister. Your Majesty is wise and powerful, defeating the enemy, and the old minister is full of tears. ”

If ordinary people say this, it may seem a little contrived, but Wen Anzhi will not.

Maybe that's the charm of Wen Anzhi.

"I didn't expect this Zhao Liangdong to be so crazy, and he would do whatever it took to cross the Happy Horse River. Fortunately, I arrived in time, otherwise the king of Yan'an would be in danger. ”

Now that he has calmed down, Zhu Youlang also understands that the loss of soldiers is not Ai Chengye's problem alone.

It's a big deal to find another opportunity to re-enable Ai Chengye in the future.

It's just that he really can't be left alone to lead the troops.

"Wen Qing should have heard about me, so let's talk about the movements of the Han captives? They must have had a good time these days, right? ”

Wen Anzhi's expression became serious.

"Your Majesty, the Hanzhong captives have indeed moved frequently recently, and as far as the minister knows, they do want to attack Baoning in solidarity with Zhao Liangdong's troops. It's just because of the defeat of the Zhao thief that he had to give up. Originally, the old minister had already decided to leave for Boryeong to personally supervise the battle..."

Zhu Youlang was sad in his heart when he heard this.

Wen Anzhi is already an old man in his seventies, and he has to go into battle in person for some things. Daming's talent gap is indeed a bit serious, and talent training is imminent.

"Wen Qing has worked hard! I'm ready to open Enko, and I'm going to take a scholar! ”

The imperial examination is definitely a big killer for scholars.

Although Zhu Youlang had the intention to carry out drastic reforms in the imperial examination, he was still able to seek stability at present.

When the Qing army is defeated in the future and the world is restored, it is the time for Zhu Youlang to make a move against the branch.

Wen Anzhi was naturally overjoyed when he heard it.

"Your Majesty wants to open Enko? That's great! ”

Wen Anzhi pondered for a moment and said, "The topic has already been prepared?" Is there a candidate for the examiner? ”

Zhu Youlang was suddenly a little embarrassed.

"I have some ideas about the question, but this examiner... I'm afraid I'll have to bother Wen Qing. ”

Wen Anzhi immediately agreed: "It is the duty of the old minister to select talents for the country." ”

Zhu Youlang couldn't help but sigh in his heart, there are too few people like Wen Anzhi who take the affairs of the country as their own.

"For specific matters, the old minister can first draw up a charter and then submit it to His Majesty."

When it comes to the imperial examination, Wen Anzhi is full of enthusiasm and can't wait to draft the constitution immediately.

"This matter is up to Lao Wenqing."

Zhu Youlang nodded with great satisfaction.

Wen Anzhi is relieved of his affairs.

"By the way, how is the prince behaving these days when I'm away?"

Zhu Youlang is still very concerned about the achievements of the crown prince.

It is a matter of the succession of the Ming Dynasty, so he can't help but care.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very intelligent and very organized in handling government affairs."

As the prince's teacher, Wen Anzhi is still very satisfied with this student.

Although the crown prince is not as decisive as the Son of Heaven, the basic rules are still very clear, and there will be no embarrassing situation of not knowing what to do.

As the first assistant, Wen Anzhi only needs to make one or two points on some specific issues.

"Take the recitals that the prince has reviewed."

This was said to Han Miao.

Hearing is false, seeing is believing.

Zhu Youlang still wants to see with his own eyes how the prince handles government affairs.

Soon, Han Miao ordered someone to move a thick stack of music to the front of the palace.

Looking at the mountain-like recital, Zhu Youlang suddenly felt a little sad.

The crown prince should be just twelve years old this year, right? As the heir of the emperor, it is really too hard to bear such a burden.

But this is also a matter of no choice, born in the emperor's family, you have to take on this responsibility, and it has nothing to do with age.

Now although Zhu Youlang is prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period, he also has to plan for his death.

Otherwise, if he has any accidents, where will Da Ming go?

Zhu Youlang picked up a book and unfolded it to read, first scanned the content of the note, and then focused on the words of the prince Zhu Pi.

I have to say that the prince's small handwriting is very neat, which is pleasing to the eye.

"I can't fault that decision."

Zhu Youlang nodded with satisfaction.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has really matured a lot in the past two years."

Wen Anzhi also met the prince a few years ago.

At that time, the prince was as immature as a child.

But since the twelfth year of Yongli, its rapid growth is something Wen'an never expected.

Of course, this is related to the partial decentralization of power by the Son of Heaven, but it is also inseparable from the talent and efforts of the crown prince.

It is a blessing that Daming has such a crown prince.

"It's hard for him."

Zhu Youlang also sighed.

"I'll take him more with me when I have time in the future."

Some things are difficult to understand just by understanding, and it is easy to take detours.

Wen Anzhi is also unable to teach.

For example, the emperor's mental technique, Wen Anzhi knew in his heart that he couldn't say it to the prince.

Otherwise, it is a loss of duty.

But Zhu Youlang, who is the father of the emperor, can say it.

"Your Majesty is wise, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is filial, and he will definitely not disappoint His Majesty's hard work."

In fact, even if Wen Anzhi doesn't say it, Zhu Youlang will not be suspicious of the prince.

First, he believed that the crown prince would not have the idea of rebelling and usurping the throne.

Second, the prince is young, and even if he really has any ideas, he will not threaten Zhu Youlang.

The royal father and son are also the boundaries of the royal father and son, but Zhu Youlang does not want this boundary to affect the relationship between father and son.

After all, they are not only kings and ministers, but also father and son.

Blood is thicker than water!

ps: The second more delivered. With a high probability of being on the shelves on the weekend, Lao Kun still wants to make a final effort. Even if Sanjiang only has a theoretical possibility, Lao Kun will not give up easily. This is the same as Zhu Youlang, even if you know that the road ahead is difficult, you have to persevere to the end. It's a pity that Zhu Youlang has a group of like-minded righteous people around him. Where are Lao Kun's book lovers?
