Zhu Huakui, the king of Chu, does have dozens of women on the bright side, and the harem of the current emperor Zhu Youxiao is not as good as him, which is indeed difficult for him to refute. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

But he didn't feel any guilt about it.

In his opinion, Zhu Youxiao is simply scolding for no reason!

Because the Ming Dynasty has been established for a hundred years, there has not been an emperor of that generation who has stipulated how many women a vassal king can have.

However, this Zhu Youxiao became the emperor, and he changed the law to seize the benefits of the vassal king, and manage the power of the vassal king, and now he has to manage even how many women he should have.

Zhu Huakui, the king of Chu, had a nameless fire in his heart, he felt that he could understand Zhu Youxiao's arbitrariness and unreasonableness, and he held back the anger in his chest and arched his hand at Zhu Youxiao: "Since this is the case, the minister retires!" ”

Zhu Youxiao is also quite dissatisfied with this vassal king who dares to covet his own woman, and seeing that he is not as good as before, he waved his hand dissatisfiedly: "Get out, go back to your Wu0chang!" ”

Zhu Youxiao's sentence hit the heart of Zhu Huakui, the king of Chu, and Zhu Huakui couldn't help but bow his hand to Zhu Youxiao again: "In this way, thank you Your Majesty!" ”

Zhu Youxiao was also a little bored for a while, and he didn't think about it so much, and it was indeed a trouble to let these vassal kings stay in Jinling City all the time.

These days and nobles have caused a lot of trouble to the commercial order of Jinling City recently, if it weren't for Zhu Youxiao's public beheading of Guiwang Zhu Changying, I am afraid that some bold clan relatives would directly rob it publicly.

The people of Nan0 Capital are complaining about this, and Zhu Youxiao can't put all these vassal kings under house arrest for no reason, so it is better to let them go back to the fiefdom first, and then slowly clean up in the future.

Moreover, now Zhu Youxiao has not been free because of this after sacrificing filial piety, not to mention, he did not come to the south to be free.

Although Zhu Youxiao used forceful means to oppose the civilian officials and basically got rid of the control of the civilian officials, the civilian officials still occupied a dominant position in this ruling system, and the military attaches who were originally in check and balance with the civilian officials were still subordinate to the civilian officials, and the vast majority of the military attaches in the Ming Dynasty were still suppressed by the civilian officials, which also led to the lack of fighting spirit and too heavy servility of the military personnel.

And to change this habit formed over hundreds of years, it is natural that it cannot be changed overnight.

What Zhu Youxiao has to do is to reshape the status of military attachés step by step, and Zhu Youxiao is not worried about whether the military attache and civilian officials will lead to the emergence of warlords, because the Praetorian Guard, which represents the emerging military attache class, is linked to national interests.

And these military attachés, who have a share of the state capital, can only maximize their own interests as long as they continue to expand externally, and overthrowing the emperor and disrupting the world will only make them gain more than they lose.

The first step for Zhu Youxiao to do is to worship Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan, with the respect of the emperor!

Zhu Youxiao only mentioned this decision to Xu Hongji, the Duke of Wei, at first, but the ministers really didn't expect that His Majesty the Emperor would really worship Xu Da in person.

Xu Da has made outstanding achievements in the Ming Dynasty, can be called the first martial artist, and is also related to the royal family, so it is understandable for Zhu Youxiao to worship Xu Da, and Wenchen did not object.

Although some people have realized that Zhu Youxiao is deliberately promoting the status of military attaché and proposed that although Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan, has meritorious service with the state, it is enough to send important ministers to sacrifice on his behalf, so why bother with His Majesty himself.

But Zhu Youxiao naturally disagreed, although the sacrifice is not a big deal, but if it is his own emperor to sacrifice himself, this not only shows that he is deliberately reshaping the status of the military ministers, but also makes the nobles also realize that their group is slowly being valued by His Majesty the Emperor.

What's more, he is just paying respects, and the chief priest is Xu Hongji.

Xu Da was buried in Zhongshan by Zhu Yuanzhang, and Xiaoling belongs to the same Purple Mountain, but it is not far away, Zhu Youxiao also cabinet scholar Li Mingrui personally wrote an article for Xu Da on the day of the sacrifice to erect another Shinto monument.

At the same time, the Hanlin Academy was instructed to organize a special person to compile a biography of Xu Da, and required that the vernacular text and chapter hui form be the best, so that the people of the world could understand and understand, and being familiar with the heroes and heroes of the dynasty was also one of the measures to strengthen ideological education.

Using an official institution like the Hanlin Academy to organize forces to compile celebrity biographies (in the genre of novels) is the first of its kind so far, and it is not only for the purpose of promoting heroic figures, but also to make money.

Institutions of the nature of social science research such as the Hanlin Academy cannot live only on subsidies from the imperial court, and the scholars of the Hanlin Academy, who are knowledgeable but not familiar with popular affairs, cannot let them stay poor all the time, so it is good to make some money by publishing cultural products.

"The Founding Fathers of the Ming Dynasty: The Biography of Xu Da" Hanlin Academy Edition was released after half a year, and 30,000 copies were printed and distributed that month, but only 2,000 copies were sold, but later people found that this "Founding Fathers of the Ming Dynasty: Xu Da Biography" is not a snow-like classical Chinese, but a vernacular text that anyone can understand and understand, and the story is also interesting.

As a result, the sales of such biographies suddenly increased dramatically in the second month.

In the third month, all 30,000 copies of the pre-printed were out of stock.

The Hanlin Academy had to expand the scale of printing, and even had to recruit craftsmen from outside the country instead of relying on internal officials to meet the needs of the common people for such reading materials.

However, it can also be seen how empty the spiritual world of the people of the Ming Dynasty is, and the Water Margin cannot meet their entertainment needs at all, and the stories of contemporary heroes are much stronger in terms of substitution, familiarity and intimacy, so they are more popular.

Seeing this, Xu Guangqi, the head of the Hanlin Academy, simply asked for a biography and wrote comments on other founding fathers of the Ming Dynasty who had not been denied by Zhu Yuanzhang later. Because the money earned is good for themselves, these Hanlin officials not only did not oppose it, but agreed with it.

It's just that they never realized that from a moment on, they, the old pedants, began to transform from a pure researcher to an exporter of cultural products that served the consumption of popular culture.

Even later, some of them began to become celebrities in order to make money, and became well-known figures by explaining Tang and Song poems and historical and military stories to the public through various channels, and these characters were directly called "experts" by Daming Daily, and the word expert was born.

Without further ado, when Zhu Youxiao personally came to pay homage to Xu Da's mausoleum, Zhu Huakui, the king of Chu, also made up his mind to do a great job.

That night, he went to Wei Min'er's house, and Wei Min'er only thought that he had come to visit his cousin, so he didn't suspect him anything.

"Lord Wang, have you really thought about it?" Ruan Dacheng asked Chu King Zhu Huakui very seriously.

Zhu Huakui didn't answer immediately, and only said after a long time: "He rejected Gu's request, not just because of this matter, Gu really doesn't want to be played with by him like this, but before I promise you, you have to grant me two things." ”
