The Confucianism of North Korea came to Daming, and Yunxi did not dare to guarantee that the Confucianism of the Ming Dynasty would be stronger than them, but there would definitely be something stronger than them, and after the exchange, several Confucianists of the Ming Dynasty would definitely be invited to North Korea to continue the exchange.

And the great Confucianism of North Korea is teaching Zhu Zhen, and those who go to North Korea in the Ming Dynasty will be able to contact Zhu Zhen, and then influence him, and even become a real and unknown gentleman. This made him close to Daming.

Of course, the second goal may not be achieved, and Yun Xi is also mentally prepared for this, but even if it is not achieved, it is nothing, it is just a step of idle chess, and it has no impact on the overall situation.

Qin Song didn't know the cause and effect, so he didn't guess Yun Xi's purpose for a while, but he also knew that there must be a lot of arrangements for calling him to such a solemn order, so he immediately agreed: "Yes, Your Majesty." Inform this person as soon as he retreats. ”

"You must take this matter seriously. This year, in addition to spying on the military situation in the northwest, you will also have to recruit a few more people who are good at Confucianism in the capital, and then try to make a name for them in the capital and become a great Confucian. Yun Xi said again.

Qin Song stood up and agreed, "The minister obeys the order." ”

"What do you do when you stand up, sit down and sit down." Yun Xi smiled.

After Qin Song sat down again, Yun Xi instructed him again: "Although the matter of Confucianism is important, it is not comparable to the military affairs of the Northwest. How is Jinyiwei's current detailed arrangements in the northwest? "If the battle with Samarkand is lost, the Ming Dynasty will be in danger, and he can only concentrate on organizing the 'Guanzhong Defense Battle', and he can't care about anything else except building factories. So the first priority is the war with Samarkand. It happened that he asked Qin Song to enter the palace because of Confucianism, and he happened to ask about it.

"Your Majesty, there are now thirteen Jinyi guards in Samarkand, ambushing in various cities of their country, pretending to be hawkers and craftsmen, and one of them has entered their yamen as an errand."

"However, the rules of Samarkand are completely different from those of the Ming Dynasty, even those who have entered the yamen on an errand are confused, and they cannot get confidential information."

Although Timur returned to Samarkand with his troops, many of the conscripted tribal leaders did not return to the place where the tribe was located, and he thought that Timur would still fight in the spring, but it was impossible to know where he was going to attack. Samarkand is going to send troops to the east, or to take refuge in Samarkand, a Mongol tribe is unwilling to use the mantis arm as a car, so people quietly tell Shami Chagan, Jinyiwei and His Royal Highness the King of Qin knew. ”

"The minister is not doing well, please punish Your Majesty." Qin Song said.

It is not easy to send people to Samarkand to spy on intelligence. First, the appearance of the people of the Western Regions is quite different from that of the Han Chinese, and second, although Samarkand implements a policy of religious freedom, it is not forbidden to spread other religions, but it is not allowed to preach to the Heavenly Sect, but it is difficult for non-Celestial Christians to mix in the Yamen, and the only one who works as an errand in the Yamen is to disguise himself as a Heavenly Believer to enter.

But Yunxi is very vigilant about this. If religion is instilled for a long time, even if it is false at first, it may become true later, and how the Ming Dynasty treats the Heavenly Sect is known to the world, and it is not normal to become a member of the Heavenly Sect without rebellion. He would rather be less efficient in his quest for information than let them all believe in the Heavenly Sect.

So Yun Xi said: "The people of the Ming Dynasty are very different from the people of Samarkand, and it is normal that you can't hear anything, and I won't blame you." ”

"In the future, you don't have to let the meticulous work probe into confidential matters, but only pay attention to the things that are known to everyone from the people; It is not necessary to leave too many people in Samarkand, five or six people are enough. If you want to find out about the secrets, leave it to Yili. ”

There were many Mongols under Timur's rule, although there were many people who converted to Tianfang, but it did not mean that they did not care about Yili Jiangli at all. What's more, the meticulous works that can lurk in Samarkand are all talents, at least proficient in Khorezm, a branch of the Turkic language that is now common in Samarkand, and some also know Vulish, Altaic or Tatar, and even can write various Turkic scripts with completely different grammars, which are very useful, and it is not good to be wasted in Samarkand.

"This, the minister obeys." Qin Song was not satisfied with this, as if he was saying that Jinyiwei was incompetent. But reality is stronger than people, Jinyiwei really did not do well, and the battle with Samarkand is imminent, even if it is too late to arrange manpower to go over now, he can only agree.

Yun Xi also knew that he was not satisfied, and said: "Qin Song, it is because I remembered that it was the beginning of two years when I sent people to Samarkand to work in detail, and it has only been four years since this year. ”

"I'm ashamed." Qin Song hurriedly said. Although Yun Xi is right, he can't admit it.

Yun Xi said a few more words, and Qin Song saw that there was nothing to do and then ordered to retire. But Yunxi whispered to him again: "......, you can prepare these places in advance." ”

"These places, Your Majesty, obey the order." Qin Song was very surprised when he heard these place names, but he finally had trained himself for officials over the years, and immediately bowed down and agreed.

"This time I will arrange a detailed work in Samarkand, because it is too late to find out any news, and when you send people to these places after the New Year, there will be enough time to arrange."

After saying this, Yun Xi had nothing to do to tell him anything, and ordered Wang Xi to bring some things to reward him, so that Qin Song retreated.

In the next few days, Yun Xi drank and chatted with the royal princes to enhance their relationship, and occasionally discussed some things, while accompanying his wife and concubines and children in the palace. Among them, Min'er occupies the most Yunxi's time. She was very lonely when Yun Xi was not in the capital during the Chinese New Year last year, and this year she simply stuck to Yun Xi's side, unless it was time to sleep, even if Yun Xi met the princes, she had to go with her, and Xi Yao would not be able to stop her. Yun Xi thought that they were all brothers of the same clan, and it would be okay for Min'er to see her, so he took her with him.

On this day, Yun Xi went to King Wu's Mansion to talk to Yun Xi, and met Yun Zhi on the way, she glanced behind Yun Xi and said with a smile: "Where is the imperial brother?" Why is there so many people besides Min'er? ”

"Go talk to the second brother." Yun Xi also smiled: "The second brother also brought the children to the capital for the New Year, and I also took them to play with my nephews and nieces." ”

"My sister is going too." Yun Zhi thought at first that Yun Xi had summoned the prince into the palace, but when she heard him say that he was going out of the palace to King Wu's mansion, she immediately said.

"I won't wander outside the palace when I leave the palace today, and I will come back after a few hours in King Wu's mansion."

"That's better than staying in the palace. The mother is always nagging, especially after the New Year, when my sister is fifteen years old, she always says that she wants her sister to look like a princess, and she has to tell her brother and sister-in-law to choose a horse for her sister. I don't like to hear it, and I can't refute it, so I can only hide. ”

Yun Hee laughed. "Actually, what the concubine said is not bad, you are already fifteen, and it is time to prepare for marriage."

"The second sister is nineteen years old this year, and she is not married."

"Don't compare yourself to your second sister. Her situation was different, and she was later delayed by the royal brother for a year, otherwise she would have gotten married in the second half of the year before last. ”

"Then I won't get married so early!" Yun Zhi saw that Yun Xi's attitude seemed to be serious, and she was a little flustered, and hurriedly said.

Yun Xi saw that she was in a hurry, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, my brother will definitely not let you marry too early." But it's time to pick it up. Otherwise, in two years, young talents about your age will be engaged. If your second sister hadn't been widowed by Yang Feng, it would have been really difficult to deal with. ”

"Then the imperial brother, you have to promise your sister, the person that your sister doesn't look down on, the imperial brother must not force his sister to him."

"Don't worry, if you don't like it yourself, my brother will never force it." Yun Xi agreed.

While speaking, at this time, the two of them had already walked to the Qianqing Gate, and hurriedly got into the carriage and went to King Wu's mansion.

On the carriage, Yun Xi said again: "But how do you look at others?" My brother can't call all the young talents of the right age in the capital into the palace, let you choose one by one. ”

"This," Rao is Yunzhi was already very bold and open, and her face was still flushed when she heard this, in fact, when she said just now, "Brother Huang, who my sister doesn't like, must not force my sister to him", said with her head down and a red face. At this moment, when he heard Yun Xi's words, he didn't know how to answer, so he turned his head with a red face and pretended to look at the scenery.

Yun Xi saw that she was so shy, and she couldn't make fun anymore, so she could only turn to other topics and said, "Fourth sister, do you believe in Buddha or Tao?" ”

"A little bit of a believer in Buddhism." Yun Zhi replied: "My sister's mother believes in Buddhism and worships Guanyin Bodhisattva. My sister also had some letters, copied the scriptures when she had nothing to do in the palace, and begged her sister-in-law to send someone to the big temple in the capital to let the host read it in front of the Buddha and then bring it back, pressing it under the pillow. My sister felt that she slept better when she pressed the scriptures under her pillow than when she didn't. ”

"It's all psychological." Yun Xi blurted out.

"What are the psychological effects?" Yun Zhi was puzzled.

"This is what it means to believe and not to believe." Yun Xi didn't know how to explain it, so he could only say: "Because you believe in Guanyin Bodhisattva, you will sleep better with the Buddhist scriptures pressed under your pillow, and if you don't believe it, it will not be useful." ”

"If you don't believe it, the Buddha will naturally not bless you, so isn't it natural to be useless?" Yun Zhi said.

Yun Xi argued with her a few more words, and found that it was difficult for him to explain this matter clearly with his tongue, so he thought about it and said: "You can do this when you go back: give the Buddhist scriptures to your personal maid and tell her to choose five days to press the Buddhist scriptures under your pillow for five days at will, and press a book at will without pressing the Buddhist scriptures for the remaining five days." But I won't tell you whether it's pressed or not. You write down which days you slept well and which days you slept badly in the past ten days, and then let the maid tell you which days you pressed the Buddhist scriptures, if you can't completely match them, it is enough to prove that the imperial brother is right. ”

"It's a novelty. My sister has never heard of it, so she will follow it when she goes back. Yun Zhi said.

Their brother and sister talked about Buddhism for a while, and Yun Zhi suddenly thought of something and said, "Brother Huang, why don't you restore Putuo Mountain." ”

"It turns out that the reason why my grandfather abandoned Putuo Mountain was because of the relocation of the forbidden sea, but now that the royal brother has abolished the ban on the sea, it is no longer necessary to abandon Putuo Mountain, why not order it to be restored?"

"It's the concubine who said it." Yun Xi said. According to the tradition that has come since the Song Dynasty, Putuo Mountain is the dojo of Guanyin Bodhisattva in the South China Sea, and Yun Zhi's mother will of course be very concerned about this since she believes in Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Yun Zhi didn't deny it, nodded and said, "It's true that my sister's mother once talked about it in private." ”

"The reason why my brother didn't restore Putuo Mountain was because he wanted to put Guanyin Bodhisattva's dojo elsewhere." Yoon-hee continued.

"Where are you going to put it?" Yun Zhi was curious.

"Guanyin of the South China Sea naturally wants to be put in the South China Sea. But there's no urgency. Yoon-hee smiled inscrutablely.
