After Fu Youde left, Zhu Yunwen didn't sleep for a long time, and he finally worked hard to get out of this step. Judging from the evaluation of later generations, Fu Youde was killed on what charges, has not been said, he and Feng Sheng's death makes people suspect that Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, and even Li Wenzhong's death was instructed by Zhu Yuanzhang, in Zhu Yunwen's view, these are unrealistic, the threat of the Northern Yuan in the early Ming Dynasty is very serious, Xu, Chang, Li and others are second to none generals, many times deep into Mobei, although there are occasional defeats, but no one can replace them when they are alive, and there is no problem with their descendants to attack the lord, and even after Chang Mao broke the law, he also let his brother Chang be promoted to the lord, If it was really instructed by Zhu Yuanzhang, then his descendants would not be allowed to inherit the title, and his descendants would not be so loyal. From another point of view, if his father Zhu Biao had not died early, Lan Yu might not have died. It's just that the Lanyu case is too involved, and the people are panicking, the more this is the case, the more Zhu Yuanzhang is afraid, and the more he wants to kill him, so he scanned the surroundings and found the two people with the highest ability, status, and influence, Feng Sheng and Fu Youde, so the final result was them. From the perspective of later generations, Feng Sheng has a way to die, but Fu Youde basically does not, so Zhu Yunwen not only plans to find a helper for himself, but also hopes that this tragedy will not happen, after all, the Ming Dynasty will continue, if future generations cannot treat the heroes well, how can it last? (The rehabilitation of Fu Youde and Feng Sheng is a matter of Chongzhen or Nanming Hongguangnian.) ）

Fu Youde said goodbye to the imperial grandson, he was also a little excited, he found that the imperial grandson was different from the legend, although he was young, but he was very interested in the military, and had a certain amount of research, although there was a suspicion of talking on paper, but he couldn't ask too much, after all, the imperial grandson was only eighteen years old. He has a glimmer of hope for the future of himself and even his family, for him, he is most afraid that the superior will have no ambition and no vision, although Zhu Yuanzhang is eloquent, but he is already old, not as high-spirited as before, and lacks energy, so he can only keep it. But His Royal Highness is not, if he can become his confidant, then he may have the opportunity to lead the troops to fight, maybe the Fu family can also be passed on like the Xu family, the Chang family, and the Li family......

The second day's drill was very successful, and the emergency assembly, weight-bearing cross-country, swimming, queue performance, and combat were all relatively successful. After Zhu Yunwen obtained Fu Youde's consent, he left Fu Youde as a consultant for martial arts, assisting Qu Neng, He Fu, Mu Sheng and others in formulating the teaching content.

When he returned to the city, he took Geng Xuan and Huang Zicheng with him, Huang Zicheng thought that martial arts was on the right track, and he heard that Fang Xiaoru was compiling the Hanyu Pinyin scheme, so he planned to return to the Zhan Academy to help, Zhu Yunwen thought about it for a while and agreed, so he asked Qi De to temporarily take on the position of Wen Siye and wait for the follow-up arrangements. As for Geng Xuan, at the request of his sister, he had to go back for his honeymoon.

After returning to the city, the first thing was to go to the Qianqing Palace to report to Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang listened to Zhu Yunwen's narration, and didn't say anything, but just asked about Fu Youde's situation, and listened to Zhu Yunwen's process of summoning Fu Youde last night, he couldn't help but smile on his face, and when he heard Zhu Yunwen's attention to Gansu and Ningxia Weisu, he asked: "Yunwen, are you interested in Ningxia and Gansu?" ”

"Yes, Grandpa Huang, Yun Wei looked at the map, Jiayu Pass is far away from the Yumen Pass of the Han and Tang Dynasties, so I want to know the specific reason, and my grandson hopes that my Ming Dynasty can be like the Han and Tang Dynasties, open up the Western Regions, reopen the Silk Road, so that Mongolia's living space can be compressed, now Mo Nan Mongolia and Mo North Mongolia are no longer worried, but Mo Xi Mongolia is about to move, and the West Regions is close to Moxi, if you can control the Western Regions, then Mo West Mongolia has no room for development, if you strike at Mobei again, Mongolia will either perish like the Turks, Or migrate like the Huns. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a moment and said, "Yun Wei, Grandpa Huang didn't expect you to be so ambitious, what else do you want to do, let's say it today." ”

"Yes, Grandpa Huang, my grandson wants to run the Western Regions and cut off the right arm of Mongolia, and then run Liaodong and cut off the left arm of Mongolia, so as to completely eliminate the northern part of Mobei and forever eliminate the northern threat of China."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled bitterly: "Yun Wei, you and I said a similar idea before, but it was too difficult, in the fifth year of Hongwu, Xu Da and others were ambitious to clear Mongolia and occupy the grassland, and they almost succeeded, but unfortunately Xu Da failed miserably in Lingbei, and everything came to naught." But now that the generals are withering, people are at ease, and Wenchen has no ambitions, he is only willing to defend the old frontier of China, Yun Wei, how can you do it? ”

"Yun Wei, I will talk about it in detail, go deep into Mobei and the northwest to fight, food is a big problem, my Ming granary is in the southeast, and it can be connected to Beiping by sea and Cao Yun, and then through Beiping to help the north, which has cost a lot of money; As for the northwest, Ningxia and Shaanxi have grain, but it is far less than the Han and Tang dynasties, if you want to go out of Jiayuguan to fight, you need a lot of grain, and the Yellow River is not enough, Hongwu five years, 'Henan Yellow River is exhausted, pedestrians can wade. 'How can we transport grain to the northwest with manpower alone?' It has already cost a lot to support Kaiping and Daning from Beiping alone, let alone transport it from Beiping to the northwest? As for Sichuan, there is grain, but the road to Shu is difficult, and it is not suitable for large-scale grain transportation. How do you solve these problems? ”

"In addition, Liaodong is bitterly cold, how to keep out the cold, and how to maintain the military and civilians? I Ming Liaodong Division actually rely on shipping to maintain, you come to take a look, Shanhaiguan, Guangning, Jinzhou are located by the sea, the east as far as the Yalu River, you can rely on the Yalu River supply, deep inland farthest is Shenyangwei, Tielingwei and Dingliaowei, but further north is beyond the reach of the whip. If you just occupy the north, it is very easy to level the barbarian tribes, but how to hold on is a big problem. ”

"In addition, the Ming Dynasty lacks silver and copper, which leads to frequent barter in some places, and the former Yuan issued paper money, which was also routine in this dynasty, but the people are unwilling to use it, so what?"

Zhu Yunwen listened to Zhu Yuanzhang's words and found that he was thinking a little simpler, what he thought was that he had lost a lot of land from the perspective of later generations, and was bullied, and now that he had the opportunity to be the emperor, he wanted to make some changes, such as Liaodong, Western Regions, Mongolia, although the Manchu Qing Dynasty had so many problems, but these places were already China itself, was he not as good as the Manchu Qing Dynasty?

He lowered his head and muttered for a while, and said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "My grandson remembers that when Qin Shi Huang unified China, he built a double-track hardwood track to transport soldiers and military rations. ”

"As for the issue of silver and copper, my grandson heard that there is copper in Yunnan and can be mined. As for the silver, the grandson heard that the Japanese state has silver, and the Ming can ask for it, and if he does not agree, he can directly occupy it and belong to the territory of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang listened to Zhu Yunwen's words, his mouth opened wider and wider, his eyes even popped out of his sockets, he glanced at Zhu Yunwen suspiciously, and circled around Zhu Yunwen a few times. Zhu Yunwen was puzzled: "Grandpa Huang, what's wrong?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang came up and touched Zhu Yunwen's forehead and said, "Yunwen, you were stabbed this time, did you hurt your brain?" It shouldn't be......"

"No, Grandpa, I'm not talking nonsense."

Zhu Yuanzhang said: You didn't talk nonsense? Lao Tzu has always been worried that you are the queen of Chen, but I didn't expect you to be Emperor Yang of Sui? There are double tracks in the north, how much manpower and timber does it take? How much manpower does it cost to maintain it in the future? Spend so much resources and manpower just to capture the barren lands of Liaodong, Mongolia and the Western Regions? Why didn't I see that you had such a tendency? is so happy and abuses the people's power, how can this make Lao Tzu rest assured that he will hand over the country to you. If your throne is robbed by your uncle, it will be the world of the Zhu family, but from now on, that King Yan is estimated to be unable to kill you, in Zhu Yuanzhang's opinion, with the military and civil power of the whole country, as long as you are not too idiotic, you will not be able to kill King Yan. The only problem is that the northern border defense line needs to be reconstructed, if the northern border army is swept away, then the border defense of the Ming Dynasty may retreat to the early years of Hongwu, and can only rely on the Great Wall for defense. What he hopes more is that Zhu Yunwen will be wise and martial, deter King Yan so that he will not dare to rebel, and loyally defend the border for the imperial court, isn't it beautiful?

Lao Zhu fixed his mind and said: "Yun Wei, Grandpa Huang thinks that you should face the reality, the relaxation roads all over the north cost too much, and it is useless to get the land of the northwest, northeast and Mongolia. ”

"As for the conquest of the Wa Kingdom, the vast ocean, how easy it is to say, the Yuan Dynasty has failed to conquer the Wa twice, otherwise our naval army is much stronger than the Yuan Dynasty, and the Wa State colluded with Hu Weiyong to plot to assassinate me, how I don't want to beat them, but I can only prevent them from paying tribute. However, there are copper mines in Yunnan, so Mu Chun can pay attention to them. ”

In the end, Zhu Yuanzhang concluded: "Yun Wei, as an emperor, it is a good thing to be ambitious, but to face the reality, you must not abuse the people's power, how strong the Sui Dynasty is, in my opinion, it is stronger than the Tang Dynasty, but Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was in power, and the world was in chaos in less than ten years, and finally the country was destroyed." You have to take this as a warning. ”

Zhu Yunwen only understood why Zhu Yuanzhang had that expression when he got here, and couldn't help crying and laughing: "Grandpa Huang, Yunwen is not a fool talking about a dream, nor is it a great achievement." Yun Wei believes that these can be done, just like the glass of the emperor's grandfather, if you don't say it, who knows if it is made of sand? Since the end of the Tang Dynasty, Confucianism has prevailed, and it has despised craftsmen and peasants. And only read the Four Books and Five Classics, Yun Wei does not deny that these self-cultivation Qi family governance of the world is very good, but governing the world is not only these are enough, but also arithmetic, craftsmanship, agriculture and other knowledge. Since the end of the Tang Dynasty, the technology of our China has deteriorated, and the Khitan barbarian tribe is known as the country of iron, and the armament is stronger than that of the Song Dynasty. In the long run, our Huaxia may once again become a slave of the country. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was also shocked: "Yun Wei, I also agree with what you said, most of the Confucian students are corrupt Confucians, and there are very few talents in governing the country. But they can't be without, they are needed for court decrees and to pacify the people. However, the Confucian scholars you said did abandon other aspects, and the Confucian scholars not only looked down on craftsmen and farmers, but also looked down on military generals, and I also saw this drawback, so I decreed that only military generals could be knighted, and the highest civil official could only be the second grade, which was lower than the governor of the five military governors' mansions. But I can't do anything about farmers and craftsmen, but it's not a big problem so far, is it really as serious as you say? ”

Zhu Yunwen knelt down and arched his hand and said: "Grandpa Huang, Yunwen doesn't dare to be alarmist, the Ming Dynasty can refer to the Song Dynasty, it is conceivable that if Song Taizu does not die early, Yanyun can be restored, but since Song Taizong's two Northern Expeditions failed, he started to shrink his head turtle, Wenchen commanded the generals, Di Qing and Yue Fei were born in the Tang Dynasty, Lingyan Pavilion can be expected, but in the Song Dynasty, only one can end up depressed, and the other dies unjustly. Therefore, the suppression of military generals and imperial power by Wenchen is very terrible. ”

"Then how do you think the literati will be suppressed?"

"Yun Wei also has no particularly good way, Yun Wei wants to popularize education, so that craftsmen, farmers, military generals, and businessmen can all study, and literati naturally have no speciality."

"Yun Wei, you are still too young, after these people read the book, aren't they literati? They will completely forget where they came from. Our dynasty did not restrict artisan households and military households from conducting the imperial examination, but after they took the imperial examination, they changed their household registration and became literati. ”

"Uh," Zhu Yunwen was stunned, it seems to be like this, so what should I do?

Looking at Zhu Yunwen's thinking hard, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled: "Yunwen, some things are not as easy as you think. ”

Zhu Yunwen had to admit that apart from having more memories of later generations and knowing the direction of history, he had no advantages. IQ knows no era, genius, any time is a genius, and the imperial examination actually selected the smartest group of people, if you want to fight them, how easy is it.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but laugh when he saw his grandson's appearance: "Yunwen, you have just dealt with the government, it is normal that you don't understand many things, it's okay to take your time." You have a generous personality and should not be arbitrary, as long as you think it through, I can rest assured. ”

"By the way, Yun Wei, your father's three-year filial piety period is about to end, your sister has already gotten married, and I am going to choose a concubine for you, do you have any candidates?"

When Zhu Yunwen heard the "concubine selection", he couldn't help but see the girl who looked like Qingwan in front of him, but he also knew that it was impossible to be with her, so he couldn't help but feel depressed, and said: "Let the imperial grandfather arrange it, Yunwen has no opinion." ”

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw his expression, he couldn't help but turn pale, took out something from his sleeve, threw it on the table, and said, "Yun Wei, what do you think this is?" ”

Zhu Yunwen took it and was stunned: "Isn't this Yunwen's token?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang casually took a copy from the fold on the table and smashed it on Zhu Yunwen's face, Zhu Yunwen's shoulder injury was not healed, and he couldn't help but "ouch", but immediately knelt on the ground: "Yunwen is wrong, please punish the emperor's grandfather." ”

"Zhu Yunwen, you are too bold, this is your token, you actually handed it over to others without authorization, and you are also a businessman, if it weren't for the Jinyi Wei report, I wouldn't have believed it, you are so Meng Lang? Have you taken a fancy to that Miss Bai family? ”

Zhu Yunwen held back the pain and said: "Grandpa Huang, the grandson was just confused for a while, at that time, Jinyiwei wanted to raid the Bai family, and the grandson had a relationship with them, so he didn't think much about it, and gave them the token, which means that Jinyiwei should not be embarrassed for the Bai family." ”

"Don't be embarrassed? It was a big case of assassinating the emperor's grandson, and you, as the emperor's grandson, have no private affairs, they are all state affairs. The Bai family harbored important criminals, and it was already an ancestor to accumulate virtue if they didn't behead the whole family, and besides, you are so sure that the Bai family has nothing to do with the assassination case? ”

"Me?" yes, can you really be sure? Or is it because Bai Fangrui resembles Qingwan that he has relaxed his vigilance, maybe the chance encounter will be planned in advance? Thinking of this, Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but be at a loss.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at his grandson's appearance and couldn't help sighing: "You, Yun Wei, are still too easy to trust people, it's a good thing to be generous to others, but you can't treat everyone like this, it's very dangerous, you know?" ”

"Well, Yun Wei knows."

"You go down, don't go out of the palace in the past month, take care of your injuries, and handle anything in Duanben Palace." In addition, Bai Jiazhen just asked Jinyi Wei to keep a close watch, and did not do anything to them. ”

Zhu Yunwen kowtowed again and again: "Thank you, Grandpa Huang, Grandpa Huang's longevity is boundless, and the whole world celebrates." ”

"What a mess, get out, little bunny." Zhu Yuanzhang scolded with a smile.
