Chapter 942: Loyalty and Filial Piety (Second Update)

Wang Jingchu and the child in the womb were safe, Ye Chunqiu put his mind at ease, there was Mrs. Ye in charge of the house at home, and now the grace of the Duke of Zhenguo has not yet come out, Ye Chunqiu, who has been a Hanlin, knows that the procedure of this decree is very complicated, but he doesn't care about it, but at this time, he is just a Hanlin attendant, and he suddenly has no official and is light, and he feels that he has nothing to do.

Early the next morning, Ye Chunqiu entered the palace, first went to Renshou Palace, Empress Dowager Zhang naturally knew that Ye Chunqiu had come back safely, but when she saw him again, she was also very surprised, and pulled him to say a lot of things in Renshou Palace, and Ye Chunqiu said some things about Ningxia.

Empress Dowager Zhang said: "Spring and Autumn Period, the mourning family knows you, thousands of miles to save the father, well, this time it is considered to be born and died, but fortunately, it is finally safe to come back, you child, the mourning family really likes it, if one day, the mourning family is in danger, but I don't know if the emperor can do your job, people have filial piety, this is a great virtue, no matter how bad it is, it can't be bad." But if you are an unfilial person, no matter how good it is, it is probably not much better, the mourning family likes you, it is because of this, but next time if there is anything, you have to think twice before acting, otherwise it will ......"

She shook her head and sighed.

Ye Chunqiu hurriedly responded, in fact, Empress Dowager Zhang's words are good, this era has very good moral standards for people, among which the requirements of filial piety are even more unbearable to the point that posterity seems unbearable, and even sometimes, filial piety is the only standard, for example, the Han Dynasty's official selection standard is to raise filial piety, in this era, even perverted to the point that the son must not disobey his father, the father is dead, and the son needs to return to his hometown to guard the system for three years.

But then again, although it is extreme, but this filial piety is the first of all kinds, and it does have its truth, how can a person who can't even respect his parents expect him to be close to his neighbors, be harmonious with his colleagues, and be loyal to the Son of Heaven.

Ye Chunqiu thought to himself, the reason why he was able to successfully become the prince of Zhenguo this time was that the opposition was not strong, to some extent, it must be because of this.

After chatting with the Queen Mother for a long time, Ye Chunqiu said goodbye from Renshou Palace, but there was a eunuch who probed his brain outside Renshou Palace, and when he saw Ye Chunqiu, he said: "Your Majesty invites the Duke of Zhenguo to go to the Warm Pavilion." ā€

Ye Chunqiu said very cautiously: "The will has not been given, please be cautious." ā€

The little eunuch just didn't know how to answer, and Ye Chunqiu didn't get too entangled, and went straight to the warm pavilion.

Zhu Houzhao was in the warm pavilion, looking at the map in a daze, he turned his back to Ye Chunqiu, and seemed to hear Ye Chunqiu's footsteps into the pavilion, so he muttered: "The latest report, that Batu Munk Khan heard that Zhu Ningxia rebelled, and immediately brought 50,000 iron horsemen to invade the border pass, a few days ago I learned that Zhu Ningqiu had been ambushed, so he retreated to the desert, it was really strange, this Batu Munk Khan, seems to know everything about the actions of the imperial court, but this time, even if he is interested, sooner or later, I will personally defeat him." ā€

Ye Chunqiu was not surprised by this, but said: "Flies don't stare at seamless eggs, so how can Batu Munch be indifferent when he sees the opportunity?" Your Majesty wants to solve the problem of the desert, first of all, you must stabilize the pass, otherwise, even if you defeat Batumunk, it will be meaningless. ā€

Zhu Houzhao turned his head, looked at him strangely and said, "Huh? What does that mean? It seems that there is something in the Spring and Autumn Dialect? ā€

As long as he talks about Batu Munch, Zhu Houzhao is serious, he really regards Batu Munch as his testing stone and treats him as a real opponent.

Ye Chunqiu said: "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty conquered the Xiongnu, after decades, swept the desert, but what about this? Did the Great Han get an inch of territory from this desert? On the contrary, it is the emptiness of the Guannei, after the death of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the national strength is exhausted, and the last time the ministers talked about it, if the war is useless, who would want His Majesty to be reckless? Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty used the countless money and grain created by the rule of Wenjing as military supplies, and countless people were recruited to fight, so the fields were barren and the people were poor, but what did the Han Dynasty get from the attack on the Xiongnu after decades of generations? ā€

Zhu Houzhao frowned and said, "You go on." ā€

Ye Chunqiu said: "What I got was just a short period of peace, not long after, Xianbei rose, and after that, it was still Wuhu Chaohua, and then it was Turkic, Khitan, Jin, and then Mongolia, if the desert could not be used by the Ming Dynasty, then ...... Even if Your Majesty defeats a Batu Munk Khan, there will be a Chentu Munk Khan, and if Your Majesty defeats the Tatars, the Warats will rise in the desert, and if the Warats are defeated, there will be people and other tribes, which is a stubborn disease, and it is by no means just a battle that can be solved. ā€

Zhu Houzhao looked a little discouraged when he heard this, and said faintly: "So, I will never be able to use troops against them?" ā€

Ye Chunqiu shook his head and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the crux of the matter is whether the land of the desert can be used by the Ming Dynasty. ā€

"Huh?" Zhu Houzhao raised his eyes, showing a little strong interest, and continued: "You continue." ā€

Ye Chunqiu slowly said what he thought in his heart: "Daming doesn't need so much animal husbandry, because the Guannai is overcrowded, the ministers are in Ningbo, the vast majority of the rich families, would rather let the tenants go to cultivate the land for them, than use cattle and horses, if you travel, you would rather let people lift their feet than take a car, Daming has silk, there is cotton, so there is no need for fur, or rather, the demand for it is not great, because of this, so the desert is meaningless for Guannai." ā€

Ye Chunqiu paused, glanced at Zhu Houzhao carefully, and continued: "But what if one day, the demand for cattle and horses increases greatly? What if one day the price of manpower becomes high? At that time, will there still be people who will hire people to carry sedan chairs, and will there be people who will drive tenant farmers to rent land? According to the minister's opinion, such a phenomenon will have, but will be greatly reduced, at that time, the demand for cattle and horses is only afraid to increase greatly, once the price of animal husbandry remains high, there will be people who take risks, willing to go to the desert to graze, of course, this premise is that the Ming can defeat the Tatars, seize their pastures, as long as they seize, there will be people who take risks, out of the customs to raise cattle and horses, because this is the way to make money, the world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit, this is the eternal truth, As long as the Han people enter the desert, as long as the Ming army can suppress the various departments, as long as the demand for cattle and horses in the pass is strong, then His Majesty's attack on the Tatars, the war against the Tatars, has become a commendable thing, even if the money and food are spent, the future is also a very profitable thing, and it may even bless the descendants of all generations, and eliminate the hidden danger of the Ming Dynasty to the northern aliens in one fell swoop. ā€
