Chapter 993: Wen Taowu Strategy
With Zhu Houzhao's age, he is not interested in being a "ruler of the world" at all, he likes Shen Xi's martial arts novels, and he says that he is proficient in the art of war, in fact, in order to get Zhu Youzhi to transfer Shen Xi back to the capital to play with him.

The bear child learns the set taught by Shen Xi, and when he encounters his father's temporary investigation of knowledge, he must first find a step for himself, explaining that he is actually not very good at learning, so that his father will not give him difficult questions.
Although Zhu Youji has high hopes for his son, he knows that he can't expect his son to become a big fat man in one bite, he didn't even know that his son had studied military books before, and of course he wouldn't ask his son how deep his understanding of the art of war was, even if he was asked to take the test carefully, Zhu Youzhu himself may not have picked up a book for a long time, and even the military books that Zhu Houzhao said, he only heard about them, and he hadn't even read them.
Zhu Youzhu thought for a while and asked, ""Liutao", which Liutao? ”
Zhu Houzhao thought that the topic was so difficult that he was ready to disarm and surrender, but when he suddenly heard such a question, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he thought: "This is simple, Mr. Shen explained the art of war at the beginning, first talked about "Sun Tzu's Art of War", and then "Liutao", if I don't know this, then I am embarrassed to say that I have learned it." ”
The bear child's face was flushed, and he said with a smug face: "Back to my father, it is "Wen Tao", "Wu Tao", "Long Tao", "Tiger Tao", "Leopard Tao", "Dog Tao", among which "Wen Tao" talks about the way of governing the country and employing people, which is the way of the king; "Wu Tao" talks about the principle of using soldiers and generals; "Long Tao" is about the structure and organization of the army; "Tiger Tao", talking about the formation, weapons and geographical environment of the soldiers; "Leopard Tao" is about strategy and tactics, and the actual use of troops; "Dog Tao" is about daily tactical training and command and dispatch of soldiers and horses! ”
Zhu Houzhao said in detail, a lot of the organization through the vernacular, as if adding his personal opinions, but in fact, Shen Xi explained in detail, so that he could understand and remember easily.
When these words came out, Zhu Youzhu couldn't help but look at his son with admiration.
Yesterday, he was still a bad man who only knew how to play around, how did he become a prince with political and military insights overnight?
Zhu Youzhu thought about it carefully, as if he inadvertently mentioned the art of war today because he talked to Xie Qian about whether Shen Xi would go to the northwest, could it be that this kid was secretly prepared and did his homework in advance? But this kid said that Shen Xi taught him, and he also said that Shen Xi specially compiled books for him, which can't be faked, Shen Xi is now in Guangdong, and the mountains and rivers are far too late to sing double reeds with his son to deceive him!
"Your Majesty, the concubines don't understand very well, the emperor ...... Right? ”
Empress Zhang's expectations for her son are not far behind Zhu Youji.
In the past, Empress Zhang pinned all her hopes on her husband, but now the situation is different, her husband may die at any time, then her future happiness will depend on her son, the successor emperor, and the Zhang family also needs her son's shade.
Zhu Youzhi hesitated at first, because he couldn't figure out when Zhu Houzhao would learn these things, so he nodded and smiled: "The prince answered very well. ”
"Oh, the emperor still has such skills? In the past, the concubines always felt that he was naughty and naughty, and it was difficult to take on heavy responsibilities. Empress Zhang accidentally told the truth...... In the eyes of her mother, Zhu Houzhao is completely a playful child, far from being sensible.
Zhu Youzhu continued to ask: "Prince, which part of "Liutao" do you think is the most important? ”
Zhu Houzhao was pleased when he heard it, he had asked Shen Xi similar questions before, usually he was "hated less when the book is used", today it is the opposite, the knowledge learned can always come in handy, even if this knowledge was just learned on the fly. Zhu Houzhao's little face was raised, triumphant:
"In "Liutao", Erchen thinks that the most useful is "Leopard Tao", because the use of the art of war is mainly to march and fight, and tactics come first. But Erchen also believes that "Wen Tao" is more important to Erchen, because as the emperor, he does not need to go to the battlefield in person, and the formulation of tactics can be handed over to those generals. ”
This time, without Empress Zhang asking, Zhu Youzhu nodded with satisfaction: "That's good, it's good." Zhang Yuan, you go to the Fang Palace, bring the military book on the prince's bedside, I want to see it for myself! ”
Zhu Youzhi was really interested in his son's assessment of the art of war, and he never thought that his son would really study the art of war, and what Zhu Houzhao said didn't sound like someone else had taught him, it was completely understood by the kid himself, which made Zhu Youzhu extremely happy, and he wanted to verify whether Shen Xi had really written a military book for the prince.
Zhang Yuan was ordered to return to the East Palace, and Zhu Houzhao hurriedly said: "Father, let Erchen go back and show it to you in person, right?" ”
"You don't have to go back, I still have problems with the assessment, let Zhang Yuan go, go early and come back early!"
Zhu Youzhu said a word, and Zhang Yuan retreated.
Zhang Yuan was muttering in his heart, afraid that he would not find the military book written by Shen Xi when he returned to the Zhufang Palace, although he remembered that he had read the military book, but it was a long time ago, he was not a careful person, even if he packed it up, it was not easy to find, and there were always a lot of bookcases and bookcases in the Zhufang Palace.
Zhang Yuan left, Zhu Youji's assessment was not over, and he felt it: "Prince, as you said, you are the future lord of a country, and the way of using soldiers can be drawn up for you by the military generals of Wenchen, and your responsibility lies in the way of the emperor. ”
Zhu Houzhao was very smart at this time, and said with a scowling face: "Yes, keep in mind, child." ”
"Then you should have some knowledge of "Wen Tao", tell the content, and let your father listen to it." Zhu Youzhu said this problem, and felt that the requirements for the prince were a bit high, it was probably not easy for the bear child to remember "Liutao", and it was difficult for him to remember the content in it?
Zhu Houzhao was a little confident, and thought: "On the art of war, I can't do anything else, if I can't even memorize the most basic "Wen Tao", then I will be embarrassed to ask Mr. Shen to write martial arts novels for me in the future." Mr. Shen, when you return to Beijing, you have to thank me for helping you fight for face today! ”
Zhu Houzhao said: "Among Wen Tao, the scholar is the first, the Yingxu is the second, the state affairs is the third, the great gift is the fourth, the Ming Chuan is the fifth, the sixth is the sixth, the seventh is the land guard, the eighth is the country, the ninth is the sage, the tenth is the virtuous, and the eleventh is the reward and punishment." King Wen will be Tian, the history of Bubu, said: Tian in Weiyang, will be great ......"
The content of "Wen Tao" that Zhu Houzhao can memorize is only a part of it, or Shen Xi summarized it through the vernacular, although he memorized it well in the front, but unfortunately there were mistakes and omissions in the back, but Zhu Youji, who was a father, did not remember it well, but when he heard his son recite it in a low tone, he kept nodding his head in approval.
Father and son are pretending to learn "Wen Tao" very well, but in fact, it is not easy to be an emperor who can learn almost the "Four Books" and "Five Classics", and even a diligent son like Zhu Youzhi is not so serious in learning, so that he can't hear that Zhu Houzhao is fooling at all.
"Okay, okay, you don't have to memorize it, I'm very happy that you can learn all of this."
Zhu Youji's face was full of smiles, and his words were full of relief, "I ignored you before, I didn't know that you already had hills and valleys in your heart, just when you were naughty and always complained that you didn't want to make progress, in fact, I was too narrow-minded!" ”
Empress Zhang shed tears when she listened to it, she cried with joy, although she couldn't understand what her son was reciting, but she felt that her son was the most capable at this time, and he could make his father sigh so much, which showed that his son had the initial qualifications to become an emperor.
Empress Zhang cried: "Your Majesty, in fact, he has always been smart and studious, and these should be just the tip of the iceberg of what he has learned!" ”
Zhu Youzhu smiled and said, "Empress, this is not the content of the prince's daily schoolwork, but his self-study, which is the most valuable." Alas! But if these were taught to him by Shen Qing's family, then Shen Qing's family also had a heart, but unfortunately I let him go to the southeast and didn't let him stay with the prince to teach him well! ”
While talking, Zhang Yuan trotted all the way back, holding a few yellowed old booklets in his hand, not printed books, but handwritten, Zhu Youzhu took it, and the above volume was the "Liutao" just discussed.
The content of "Liutao" is not much, Shen Xi likes to use fly-headed small letters for writing, and it is also Shen Xi's habit when he reads books, there are at least more than 100 words in a page, or even hundreds of words, and the font of books in this era is generally very large, and it is not good to waste time on turning books at the speed of his reading, and when he writes the art of war for the prince, he also uses small characters.
Zhu Youzhu was terminally ill and his eyes were not good, but he still used the lights around him to carefully check the content of the book, the font seemed so elegant to him, this was his son's textbook, or a course that was added to his son by a former lecturer of the East Palace who was misunderstood by him.
After reading the article, Zhu Youzhi said with relief and gratitude on his face: "Shen Qing's family is dedicated to the prince's studies, and it is commendable that he can teach the prince in addition to the "History of the Twenty-first Century" he taught, and guide the prince to succeed in his studies. Prince, you have to study hard, and you can't live up to Mr. Shen's cultivation of you! ”
Unconsciously, Zhu Youzhu changed his mouth to call Shen Xi "Mr.", which is also an affirmation of Shen Xi, the former speaker of the East Palace, as an emperor.
"Erchen knows."
Zhu Houzhao almost had to get back the confiscated martial arts novels with his father, but after thinking about it, it seems that it is more important to transfer Shen Xi back to the capital. With a book writer, there will be a story, but if you just get those martial arts novels, you will be gone after reading them.
Zhu Youzhi "gave" the military book written by Shen Xi to Zhu Houzhao, and said: "I received some miscellaneous books from you at the beginning, but when I saw the story, I was quite emotional...... Prince, where did you get those books? ”
Zhu Houzhao heard that Zhu Youzhi admired those martial arts novels so much, and thought that his father admired the author very much, so he hurriedly said: "Back to my father, it was also written by Mr. Shen!" ”
In a word, Shen Xi was sold.
Zhu Youzhu was originally testing his son, but he didn't want to really find out the truth of the matter. After pondering for a while, he shook his head helplessly: "Okay, I'll give you back those books, don't delay your studies because of reading!" (To be continued.) )
