Zhu Youxiao said: "Yes, I am a little anxious, I see things too simply, take your time, I am ready to use twenty to thirty years to change the Ming Dynasty ideologically." This also requires the assistance of Aiqing to create a new Ming Dynasty. ”

All the ministers said together: "I am willing to follow the will of His Majesty and start the work of rebuilding the Ming Dynasty." ”

Zhu Youxiao paused and said: "Speaking of transforming the Ming Dynasty ideologically, I remembered that last time I discussed with the research institute, and prepared to issue supplements in addition to the weekly newspaper, adding agriculture, medicine, opera, literature and history. In addition, the "Daming Science Daily" of the Ordnance Bureau was handed over to the Research Institute for distribution, and the Ordnance Bureau and the Economic Investigation Bureau jointly issued an "Internal Reference", which is a confidential newspaper, mainly in the field of domestic weapons manufacturing technology, local events, and analysis of certain things. It can only be sent to the Ordnance Bureau, research institutes, military academies and officials above the fourth grade, and cannot be spread to other people. ”

Ye Xianggao said: "Your Majesty, the printing of the various books that the old minister is responsible for has almost been completed. All the Confucian classics are according to His Majesty's words, removing those who reject strange skills and ingenuity, removing those who advocate repaying grievances with virtue, and removing those who advocate foolishness and filial piety. The books were all vetted by the Publishing Bureau and have now been shipped across the country and are being sold. The books printed this time are far superior to the previous ones in terms of paper quality and legibility, and we are selling them at a slightly lower price than the other previous editions, and we believe that we will soon be able to occupy the majority of the market. ”

The Publication Bureau was expanded from the Press Censorship Bureau headed by Wang Chengen, and all publications must be registered with the Publication Bureau and pass the examination before they can be distributed. Ye Xianggao is responsible for ruthlessly deleting some things in Confucianism that are no longer suitable for reality, which is equivalent to cleaning the book. Zhu Youxiao understood the importance of propaganda work, and if this continued, people would only have access to the new Confucian classics, and those words and articles that had a negative impact would not be seen, and subtly, the change of people's hearts could be expected.

After the ministers withdrew, Wei Zhongxian said: "Shengshang, Chen De is so mad that he dares to collude with foreign officials and murder Shengshang. The slave maid thought that the number of people in the inner palace should be strengthened to prevent this from happening again. ”

Zhu Youxiao said with a smile: "Factory minister, do you feel uncomfortable that there is no inner prison in the harem?" ”

Wei Zhongxian hurriedly said: "Your Majesty decreed that self-castration is not allowed, and only in rare cases can prisoners be transferred to palace punishment." The slave and maid were worried that this would lead to a lack of defense in the palace. ”

Zhu Youxiao's heart flashed two words "internal exercise", the original history, the internal exercise began in the second year of the Apocalypse, and reached nearly 20,000 people at the most, and it is an armed force that cannot be ignored. But Zhu Youxiao did not want to develop the eunuch armament in his heart, he wanted to eliminate the eunuchs who had lasted in China for thousands of years.

He smiled and said: "Factory minister, don't worry about this, the defense of the palace is already tight enough, and the imperial city is guarded by brocade guards, so you can naturally rest assured." At present, there are not too few but too many internal supervisors in the palace, and in addition to agricultural cooperatives, our various factories and shops are also under the control of internal supervisors. In this way, we still have more than 10,000 internal supervisors, and how many of them must be there? Now if 10,000 inner prisoners are released from the palace, there will be no shortage of people in the palace, right? ”

Wei Zhongxian said: "There are very few internal supervisors in the palace for the queen and the two noble concubines, if it is really as the saint said, let 10,000 people out of the palace, there will be no shortage of people to serve." The slaves and maids wanted to organize the internal supervisors into teams according to the army, so that their discipline could be strengthened, and everyone could supervise each other, so as to prevent the recurrence of this situation like Chen Dezhong. ”

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "What about whether to send weapons or not?" ”

Wei Zhongxian said: "Forget the weapons, at most you can use sticks, and you don't expect them to be as good at fighting as the army, but if they are well organized, they will be more efficient when they act together, and some people will not be able to avoid others to carry out conspiracy." ”

Zhu Youxiao said: "This method is good, even if it is just exercise, it is good." The factory officials organized the redundant and incompetent internal supervisors, practiced first, and learned some simple words and calculation methods by the way. Agricultural cooperatives are still only spread in the northern provinces, and if they are opened throughout the country, we still need a large number of people to take care of all kinds of things, and it is not possible to be illiterate and not count. Tell them that if you go out to do things, as long as you don't be greedy, the reward is definitely better than in the palace, and if you do well, you can adopt your relatives as adopted sons, and you can provide for your old age in the future. ”

Wei Zhongxian kowtowed and said, "The poor man in the slave and maid palace thank you for your kindness. In this way, they don't have to worry that there will be no one to worship after they die, and everyone will definitely do their best. ”

Zhu Youxiao said: "The eunuchs and palace maids work hard in the palace, and of course I have to think about them." Eunuchs can take adopted sons, and those palace maids who don't take back at home can also marry people, aren't they all involved in various shops, I believe that with their appearance and savings, there should be many people who are willing to marry them, but there is one point, they can only be wives and not concubines. ”

Wei Zhongxian said: "Holy Lord, the queen mother and the noble concubine have told them that they are even willing to choose a son-in-law for them. However, only a very small number of people are willing to go out of the palace to marry, and most people are unwilling because they are afraid of being outside the palace that they are not familiar with. ”

Zhu Youxiao said: "Yes, so in the future, you must set a good time for choosing palace maids, and when the time comes, you must let them out of the palace, so as not to delay their marriage." By the way, the unmarried older officers in the Guards who are of good character are very suitable for palace maids, and I will leave this matter to the wet nurse, she should be very interested in doing this kind of thing. ”

Wei Zhongxian's eyes rolled twice and said, "Mrs. Fengsheng is kind-hearted, and she will naturally be willing to be an adult. It's just that the saint, now that the money in the palace has increased greatly, I am afraid that some palace maids are also high-spirited, and the Jiannu has been destroyed, and they may not be able to look down on the officers who have no chance to make meritorious contributions. ”

Zhu Youxiao smiled: "It depends on whether you can say it." These officers still have a lot of battles to fight. I want to subdue all of Southeast Asia, even if it does not directly become the land of the Ming Dynasty, but also turn them into places of bondage and immigration. These places cannot be automatically attributed to the Ming Dynasty, how can they succeed without fighting. ”

Wei Zhongxian didn't understand what Southeast Asia meant, but at least he knew that the officers of the Guards would have a lot of meritorious service opportunities. As long as I talk to Mrs. Fengsheng about the truth in this, then Mrs. Fengsheng is not worshipping herself.
